  • ... that Lithuanian Nazi collaborator Aleksandras Lileikis claimed to be part of the anti-Nazi resistance, despite signing documents handing over Jews to be murdered?
    • ALT1:... that Lithuanian Nazi collaborator Aleksandras Lileikis was described as "a senior-level perpetrator of the Holocaust"?
    • ALT2: ... that the CIA recruited Lithuanian Nazi collaborator Aleksandras Lileikis even though it suspected him of murdering Jews during the Holocaust?

Overall: ALT1 is not as hooky as the others. I shall leave it open for either ALT0 or ALT2 to be selected. Gog the Mild (talk) 18:18, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

  • ALT2 is rather misleading. He did not murder directly, but handed them over to be murdered. "suspected him of participating in the Holocaust?" would be more accurate. Renata (talk) 09:00, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
    • I don't agree. By your logic, Adolf Eichmann did not murder any Jews during the Holocaust, because he directed his subordinates to do so. buidhe 09:20, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
      • Just pointing out that there is a difference between "murdering" and "being responsible for/ordering murders", and we should be precise about that. Renata (talk) 10:43, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
