I think we should contemplate the way Disney and the Establishment of the 1950s military-industrial complex excused von Braun's crimes against humanity and worked to obfuscate, if not ignore, the murders of British civilians for which he was responsible. In an ironic way, this process is similar to the way von Braun worked. He was willing to whore himself to Nazis in order to achieve personal success; we were willing to excuse his barbarity for the sake of intercontinental ballistic missiles.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3904461976821332291.post-42263553644212150792007-04-17T16:38:00.000-04:002007-04-17T16:38:00.000-04:00Thanks for the comment but that DVD doesn't have "...Thanks for the comment but that DVD doesn't have "Challenge of Outer Space."
