@nprofile1q... Worse, he was an Abwehr plant. Look it up. He worked for the Wiemar German version of the CIA. His first exposure to the Nazi party was literally as a fed infiltrator who's job was to determine if they were a threat, and later he was assigned to infiltrate their ranks to prevent them from taking over Germany. This is documented public record.

He succeeded masterfully: After orchestrating WW2, he successfully got the Nazi party banned in the German constitution, ensuring they would never hold power in Germany. He was playing the long game.
