This volume contains revelations of the U.S. Army's history of anti-Semitism throughout the 20th century that exposes pervasive suspicion and hatred of the Jews among the highest levels of the American military. Although pervasive anti-Semitism of ordinary Germans in the first half of the 20th-century has received much attention, little has been written about America's own history of anti-Semitism. In this book, Joseph Bendersky argues that such racism permeated the highest ranks of the U.S. military throughout the past century, having a very real effect on policy decisions. Through 10 years of research in more than 35 archives, the author has uncovered irrefutable evidence of an endemic and virulent anti-Semitism throughout the Army Corps from the turn of the century right up to the 1970s. These sources reveal how the Secret Americans (a group of officers who described themselves as true patriots and who felt silenced by Roosevelt) were convinced of the physical, intellectual, and moral inferiority of Jews and feared that their superior Anglo-Saxon/Nordic culture was threatened by a radical and destabilizing Jewish conspiracy.
