If so, how come Germany lost to America before they had the chance to run Operation Paperclip and get their hands on German WW2 technology?
Nope, they were invented in China approximately 1,000 years before Germany became a nation as opposed to a collection of tribes speaking a common language.
This is a WW2 forum, not a church. Oh, and God (being omnipotent by definition) deserves a capital letter - He’ll probably strike you down for that!
So does everyone else. The entire patents system is specifically designed to force publication of new ideas to ensure their spread. The human race has always benefited as a whole when ideas are shared, and technolgy is a very good example of this.
Incidentally, the US doesn’t steal technology. It buys it - and there are plenty of willing sellers - and then makes more money from it through superior application than the original inventors ever would have.
