Ridiculous and a laughable accusation. The page you referred to has nothing substantial. Both Rosenberg and Hiss are proved to be innocent quickly but lots of people became silent because of McCarthy. If you want to go back to the dark ages, go yourself. Do not put your insensible sense to all the knowledgable people here.

McCarthysim per se was horrible, but the fact remains that the Red Scare was grounded in historical truth. https://www.amazon.com/Venona-Decoding-Espionage-America-Communism-ebook/dp/B001PTHYCM/ref=nodl_ https://www.amazon.com/Venona-Decoding-Espionage-America-Com... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_and_Ethel_Rosenberg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_and_Ethel_Rosenberg
