Have you ever heard of Operation Paperclip? Originally called Operation Overcast, it was a top-secret U.S. operation that brought countless Nazi researchers, scientists, and engineers to America, where U.S. officials sought to utilize their research. Colin Heaton is an expert on Operation Paperclip and a historian and the president of CD Heaton Historical Consultants. Colin highlights some of the top Nazi minds that were brought to the U.S. during the operation, why they were coveted for their knowledge, and how they persecuted not just the Jewish people during the Holocaust, but also many Allied prisoners of war. Colin’s newest book release, The Star of Africa, details the life of German Luftwaffe Captain Hans-Joachim Marseille. TAKEAWAYS Each Nazi researcher or scientist had his own motivations for their work Some German scientists wanted nothing to do with Hitler, but feared for their lives if they did not assist the Nazis Colin’s deep interest in World War II history began during the 1970s, when he was reading a book about German fighter pilots Operation Paperclip was a huge secret, since recruiting foreign nationals for U.S. military work would have been prohibited 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Artza (get 20% off with code TINA): https://bit.ly/3H0uUGG Operation Paperclip video: https://bit.ly/4e5LTpL Operation Overcast: https://bit.ly/4pmSgbE Dr. Walter P.

Brian Slater was raised in a traditional but non-religious Jewish family in California. It wasn’t until God intervened in his life and rescued him out of the darkness of addiction that he began to embrace the true Messiah, Yeshua. Brian started helping others in the Los Angeles area who suffered from addiction issues, and as he served others, his heart for them grew. He felt called to move (aliyah) to Israel in 1996, and today, he is the CEO of Abundant Bread of Salvation, a food pantry that serves not only Holocaust survivors, but those suffering in Israel amid the volatile Middle East war. Every week, his ministry reaches approximately 400 people. Relying totally on volunteers, Abundant Bread of Salvation has been reaching “pre-believers” for more than 15 years, and seen many receive Yeshua as their personal Savior.

The Holocaust is not just a Jewish story - it’s a story of humanity. So says Naftali Schiff, a rabbi and the founder and CEO of Jewish Futures. Naftali co-authored the gripping book, Miracle: The Boys Who Escaped the Gas Chamber at Auschwitz. It chronicles the real, incredible story of a group of Jewish boys who survived the hellish gas chambers at Auschwitz. The eye-opening book also has an accompanying documentary that highlights the gripping stories of Holocaust survivors. Naftali emphasizes the importance of sharing this tragic and terrible history with our children. The truth must be preserved for future generations, even if it is uncomfortable. The stories of those who lived - or died - at Auschwitz remind us that persecution is never more than one generation away. TAKEAWAYS We must teach our children to embrace good and reject evil and stand up for what is right Not many Christian churches directly discuss the history or impact of the Holocaust Not many Holocaust survivors are still alive today, and soon, the world will rely merely on the memory of their testimonies We live in a world of digital ‘fakes,’ but the Holocaust reminds us that evil is very real 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Donate to Counter Culture Ministries: https://bit.ly/4mHL3kZ Undeniable trailer: https://bit.ly/4mHcGus Miracle book: https://bit.ly/4sKXn5q Nordhausen Concentration Camp: https://bit.ly/4vT01YJ 🔗 CONNECT WITH JEWISH ROOTS Website: https://www.jroots.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jroots.journeys Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jroots_j/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jroots_j X: https://x.com/JrootsJ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JRootsJourneys 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Tiny Revival (get 10% off with code TINA): https://tinyrevival.com/TINA Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ Faces of Choice: https://bit.ly/facesofchoiceCCM 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://theccmshow.lightcast.com/ 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE https://counterculturemom.com/download-new-app/ 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2025 Recap & 2026 Goals: https://bit.ly/2026CCM Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

Hope Beryl-Green never had a chance to live a normal life. She was born in Kentucky to a mother who was a breeder for the elite and then killed after giving birth. Hope was raised by hired handlers who were teachers and Baptist church attendees, and then trafficked to Jeffrey Epstein at only five years old. Her being alive today to share her story is nothing short of a miracle. Hope is an author, speaker, and survivor of sex trafficking and abuse. She dives into her harrowing experience growing up as a victim of human trafficking, and how her story intersects with the late Epstein’s, whose shadowed network of trafficking has been exposed via millions of documents finally released by the Department of Justice. Hope says the Epstein files have proven her account to be true. TAKEAWAYS Hope says she was a victim of brutal MKUltra for decades She alleges that her handler family was a normal, middle-class family who attended a Baptist church Hope says that children born in the trafficking network are assigned handlers who often appear normal in society, making it hard to spot Epstein Island may have been used for trafficking long before Jeffrey Epstein took over 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Rock and Roll download: https://counterculturemom.com/store/ Epstein video: https://bit.ly/46mYqAj To Tell the Truth book: https://bit.ly/4kP3jbt The Disrespected Trucker: https://bit.ly/46yD6bj Conference of Hope: https://bit.ly/4037Bm2 Journey of Hope: https://bit.ly/4aHATN5 🔗 CONNECT WITH HOPE BERYL-GREEN Website: https://www.hopeberylgreen.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hope.beryl.green.2025 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hopeberylgreen/ X: https://x.com/hgreen8385?s=21 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@epsteinsurvivor 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Faces of Choice: https://bit.ly/facesofchoiceCCM Rescue 1 Global: https://rescue1global.org/counter-culture-mom-show/ WAVwatch (get 15% off with code TINA): https://wavwatch.com/tina 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/CounterCultureMom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://theccmshow.lightcast.com/ 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageCCM 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2024 Recap & 2025 Goals: https://bit.ly/CCM23ImpactReport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/
