:Certaintly the Nazi's were nationalists, but I think (and many would agree) that their calling themselves socialists was doublespeak. Nazi policies as actually implemented were on the whole favourable to German industrialists, and most of the semi-socialist policies of their earlier years were quitely dropped upon assuming power. -- SJK |

(The use of military intelligence as an example of an oxymoron is a pretty good joke, implying that the military is stupid, but it bears on another meaning of 'intelligence'. Also, human intelligence is not the spies themselves, but the information they gather. I propose using 'intelligence agents' as more accurate doublespeak for spies and omitting 'human intelligence'.
