America and our German scientists, and Russia and their German scientists…
Let’s not act like operation paperclip wasn’t a rat race for both.
They didn’t steal German tech, Germany caused two worlds wars and war prizes were taken including technology and scientists.
Setting aside the fact that looting a country you beat in a war is still very much stealing, Germany didn’t cause the great war and if you understood an iota of history you’d realize that. Did they use it to advance their own causes and take land/resources? Yeah. Pretty much the standard MO for every country that’s ever been in a war, though. Weird to single them out for their actions in WW1 in that regard.
