Ok I just wanted to go back to why I posted the passage from the McGovern article, and the quote from Todd. For me the list connection was to the Peter Pinguid Society (COL49) and their paranoia about Russia reaching back to the civil war, where their sympathies were with the south. McGovern was using some of the same historical information to point to a time of friendliness with Russia.  We find it weirdly convenient to forget Russian suffering and their decisive role in winning WW2. It turned out the Neocon idea of following in the German path was pretty fucking stupid.
