wiffleball 4,788 Posted June 6, 2023 God, that guy was a piece of s***. There's a pretty good movie about him as I recall. Unfortunately, we're never going to know the extent of all the damage he caused, but he might as well have shot several Americans and American agents right in the head for all the damage he did. But, He's a Christian! I'm sure Jesus forgave him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seafoam1 2,804 Posted June 6, 2023 Who? And if you don't know what"damage" he did, how is he a bad guy? You admitted you don't know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,788 Posted June 6, 2023 I remember talking to a guy from a special unit who was at the time stationed here at Fort carson. I don't know how we got on the subject, but the one thing I'll never forget is he said there's really no such thing as a double agent? Because if some a****** is going to betray his country for money? He sure as hell is going to betray the other guys just as easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

God, if only there was I don't know some kind of computer thingy where you could look stuff up. Maybe even make it so easy that you could hold a small device in your hand while doing so... Really is worth looking into. By all accounts, this guy is labeled as the most damaging spy in American intelligence history. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 14,960 Posted June 6, 2023 Julius and Ethel Rosenberg did more damage than this creep. Revisionist history to cover up the fact that he was working for the Russians for twenty years. Nice work FBI, CIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dain11279 963 Posted June 11, 2024 Just finishing up an 8-episode podcast about him. Called Agent of Betrayal. Focking crazy how long he did this for and never got caught. Super interesting podcast though, definitely worth a listen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
