MODERATORS
Yes, they were kept isolated and under strict observance, then expelled. They were not given high positions en masse and protected. Adolf Heusinger, for example, was made head of NATO for his experience as a Nazi. Apel was the exception, not the rule, Heusinger was the rule, not the exception.
The expulsions don't seem to be too harsh, but otherwise fair enough.
It’s still a good thing that you brought up the soviet version of paperclip because facing contradictions is important for growth
