CIA pressure to disclose Nazi records
By David Morgan
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The CIA, under pressure from Congress, has agreed in principle to release new documents detailing its ties to
former Nazis who aided U.S. Cold War espionage against the Soviet Union, officials say.

Facing demands for public testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, CIA officials have conceded on Sunday that records on former
Nazis who have not been accused of war crimes, including members of the German SS, should be subject to the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure
Act of 1998, the officials said.

"This means the information we thought would come out when we wrote the law, will now come out," said Sen. Mike DeWine, an Ohio
Republican who co-authored the disclosure legislation.

The CIA, which had no immediate comment, has released some 1.25 million pages of documents about Nazi war criminals in compliance
with the disclosure act, which requires government agencies to divulge records of war criminals to the Nazi War Crimes and Japanese Imperial
Government Records Interagency Working Group.

But up to now, the CIA has refused to disclose documents on ex-Nazis who have not been accused as war criminals. Members of the
working group and U.S. lawmakers contend the law applies to any individual who belonged to an organization guilty of war crimes.

The records at issue include hundreds of thousands of pages of documents, including material on CIA dealings with former members of the
Nazi party and the German SS, who joined the allied Cold War effort against the Soviet Union in Europe, congressional officials said.

The CIA's position changed late last week in closed-door discussions with working group members after DeWine, who sits on the Senate
Judiciary Committee, demanded that CIA Director Porter Goss appear before the panel to provide a public explanation of his agency's refusal
to disclose the records.

Goss co-sponsored the 1998 disclosure legislation during his tenure in the U.S. House of Representatives, where he led the chamber's
intelligence committee.

It was not clear whether DeWine would cancel the judiciary committee hearing, tentatively set for February 15.

A CIA spokesman, who asked not to be identified, said the agency was prepared to demonstrate flexibility.

"As we deal with issues of review and declassification, the question we ask is not what should we withhold but what can we release," the
spokesman said.

CIA officials and members of the working group were due to meet on Monday at CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, to begin reviewing
documents for possible disclosure.

Former Democratic Rep. Elizabeth Holtzman, a working group member, and DeWine said the release of Nazi-related material was essential
now that the United States is embroiled in a war on terrorism and battling insurgents in Iraq.

It has been reported that the Pentagon (big building in a shape of a pentagon just off the potamac river down from roosevelt island and across from the mall) takes over some CIA spy operations while US 'super-secret' commandos get duty on US soil.
The Pentagon, expanding into the CIA's historic bailiwick, has created a new espionage arm and is reinterpreting US law to give [Department of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld] broad authority over clandestine operations abroad. ...

Designed to operate without detection and under the defense secretary's direct control, the Strategic Support Branch deploys small teams of case officers, linguists, interrogators and technical specialists alongside newly empowered special operations forces.

You won't even see them.
