The current mayor of San Francisco owes his elevated
status in life in large part to a former SS officer.
So did Ronald Reagan. So does the state of Israel...

... Von Bolschwing was deeply involved in intelligence
work-and in the persecution of innocent people-for
most of his adult life. He had joined the Nazi party
at the age of twenty-three, in 1932, and had become an
SD (party security service) informer almost
immediately. In the years leading up to 1939, von
Bolschwing became a leading Nazi intelligence agent in
the Middle East, where he worked under cover as an
importer in Jerusalem. One of his first brushes with
Nazi espionage work, according to captured SS records,
was a role in creating a covert agreement between the
Nazis and Fieval Polkes, a commander of the militant
Zionist organization Haganah, whom von Bolschwing had
met through business associates in the Mideast. Under
the arrangement the Haganah was permitted to run
recruiting and training camps for Jewish youth inside
Germany. These young people, as well as certain other
Jews driven out of Germany by the Nazis, were
encouraged to emigrate to Palestine. Polkes and the
Haganah, in return, agreed to provide the SS with
intelligence about British affairs in Palestine.
Captured German records claim that Polkes believed the
increasingly brutal Nazi persecution of the Jews could
be turned to Zionist advantage-at least temporarily-by
compelling Jewish immigration to Palestine, and that
the Haganah commander's sole source of income,
moreover, was secret funds from the SS.
