→Collaborators vs operatives in rescue
There is no doubt that the Nazis were very shrewd<ref>[https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/jewish-aid-and-rescue Jewish Aid and Rescue | Holocaust Encyclopedia]</ref> and skillful in duping, and lying to the desperate, as well as holding relatives of activists hostage. All that hindered rescue as well.

After the war many Nazi collaborators claimed to be part of the 'Rsistance", particularly in [[France]] and other [[Western alliance|Western]] countries. In reality, the [[gestapo]] was very effective in wiping out the entire "[[French Resistance]]" by calling families, friends, neighbors, and co-workers of captured resistors by claiming they must have known or suspected the resistors activities and did not report it, making known associates complicit. The French Resistance was glorified in [[Hollywood]] movies throughout and after the war, but with few survivors, no one was around to [[corroborate]] the collaborators' claims. This way many Nazi collaborators were celebrated as heroes, and helped to build [[NATO]].
