Episode notes
During World War II, there were multiple groups within the US government with conflicting objectives. While the Roosevelt administration proclaimed neutrality, there were factions in Treasury pushing for economic warfare against the Nazis. Simultaneously, there were sympathizers within the State Department who supported the Axis powers. This internal conflict showcases the government at war with itself, with bureaucrats making moral and ethical decisions independently of official policy. The book portrays Treasury as heroes for their actions while labeling the State Department as villains. The situation highlights the complexity of evaluating morality post facto, with the Treasury Department ultimately being on the right side.
