Sometimes, you hear grumbling out of Jerusalem that there are certain branches of the US Federal Government which seem to have a history of institutionalized anti-Semitism. Then you see eye-rolling mingled with petulant insistences that "criticizing Israel isn't anti-Semitic". After all, how could an institutional culture of deep-seated anti-Semitism ever emerge:
Five of Adolph Eichmann's Nazi assistants were recruited and employed by the Central Intelligence Agency after World War II... The newly-revealed documents are based on internal investigations in the CIA's history department. The agency has steadfastly refused to make the documents public for fear they would cause embarassment.
Institutional bias and direction are delicate things, based on years of quotidian interactions and hallway discussions between superiors and subordinates, colleagues and friends. I imagine that these sub-humans were treated as honored members of the intelligence community (if only to hide their true histories), and it's difficult to imagine that their perversions did not seep into the minds and practices of younger generations.
