In this world there are only two tragedies; one is not getting what one wants, the other is getting it.
Cambridge, United States, Date: 2003. Edition Unstated. Softcover. Good. Publisher Marketing: This book is an expose of a secret American operation during World War II to seize 4,000 Germans from Latin America and intern them in camps in the Texas desert. Rather than Nazi spies and saboteurs, they turned out to be a broad range of German immigrants, even Jewish refugees, most of whom posed no danger to national security. Research in seven countries reveals the diplomatic intrigues and human impact of a misguided policy that offers important lessons about US relations with Latin America, the failure to rescue victims of the Holocaust, and the treatment of civilians in wartime.

Hardback. New. An expose of a secret American operation during WWII to seize 4,000 German expatriates, including Jewish refugees, from Latin America and intern them in camps in the Texas desert. Research reveals the impact of this misguided policy, the failure to rescue Holocaust victims, and the treatment of wartime civilians. ISBN 0521822467 9780521822466 [GB]
ISBN10: 0521822467, ISBN13: 9780521822466, [publisher: Cambridge University Press] Hardcover Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This international history uncovers an American security program in which Washington reached into fifteen Latin American countries to seize more than 4,000 German expatriates and intern them in the Texas desert. The crowd of Nazi Party members, antifascist exiles, and even Jewish refugees were lumped together in camps riven by strife. The book, first published in 2003, examines the evolution of governmental policy, its impact on individuals and emigrant communities, and the ideological assumptions that blinded officials in both Washington and Berlin to Latin American realities. Franklin Roosevelt's vaunted Good Neighbor policy was a victim of this effort to force reluctant Latin American governments to hand over their German residents, while the operation ruined an opportunity to rescue victims of the Holocaust. This study makes a very contemporary argument: that security measures based on group affiliation rather than individual actions are as unjust and ineffective in foreign policy as they are in law enforcement.
