#2 ...Hopkins was pro-Soviet, but it's hard to be a traitor when your orders to do these things come from the President of the United States. Another example of this sort of thing should suffice: a Soviet warship went down near Finland, and British intel recovered its code book, and quite reasonably shared it with us. Upon being advised of this, President Roosevelt ordered the code book copy be returned AT ONCE to the Russians, and OSS director William Donovan was detailed to do it, along with a groveling apology.

Jonah Goldberg does a fine job on that point in Liberal Fascism (highly recommended if you haven't already read it).
