      they thought the Marshall Plan was a pledge of undying loyalty instead of a self-serving scheme to circulate capital flows and stave off global socialism. meanwhile Operation Gladio got its hands dirty and the US stationed backpack nukes in Europe (The Littlest Boy)

        Crucially the countries being hit by operation gladio weren't really the ones that got marshall plan'd and latter one is running the EU
