Aarons, Mark. Sanctuary: Nazi Fugitives in Australia. Melbourne: Heinemann, 1989.

According to Cain, I&NS 6.1, "ASIO raised no objections" when Nazi war criminals and Nazi collaborators from Eastern Europe "applied for [Australian] citizenship and gave them security clearances in succeeding years.... Aarons discusses numerous cases where ASIO has been less than diligent in exposing the murderous backgrounds of these immigrants."

Aarons, Mark, and John Loftus. Unholy Trinity: How the Vatican's Nazi Networks Betrayed Western Intelligence to the Soviets. New York: St. Martin's Press, 1991. [pb] 1993. Ratlines: How the Vatican's Nazi Networks Betrayed Western Intelligence to the Soviets. London: Heinemann, 1991. London: Mandarin, 1991. [pb]

According to Surveillant 1.6, the authors claim not just that there was an effort by the Vatican to smuggle Nazis out of Europe but that the effort was infiltrated by the KGB.

NameBase says that the authors present "the most comprehensive account yet" of "the role of the Vatican 'Ratlines' in Nazi smuggling, and the involvement of Soviet intelligence in manipulating these events. Pope Pius XII and Giovanni Montini (later Pope Paul VI) were involved in a massive obstruction of justice, sheltered by U.S. intelligence officers who had plans to use ex-Nazis in the war against Communism."

McGinnis, Cryptolog 14.1, notes that the authors present a "largely revisionist view of history." Cain, I&NS 7.4, seems to buy into the authors' thesis that some of these Nazi survivors were "incorporat[ed] into US intelligence." Surveillant 2.2 notes that the "authors, somehow, tie Nixon and Bush in with the rescuing of fascist fugitives and war criminals."

Although the author does not really answer the question raised in his title, he has produced an interesting look at the current tidal wave of outsourcing activities previously reserved mostly for government workers. Abbott suggests that "the intelligence community itself is divided about outsourcing intelligence analysis. There are disputes over everything from cost to quality."
