Question
Martin J. Siegel’s 2023 book on a participant in this event notes that when Floyd Abrams met him years later, he immediately pulled out Arthur Schlesinger’s op-ed defending his actions. The New York Times ran the “Invitation to a Vendetta” when the ACLU tried to re-investigate this event, the subject of Louis Nizer’s The Implosion Conspiracy. During this event, David Greenglass was implicated by Harry Gold, who had himself been implicated by (*) Klaus Fuchs. The Venona Project helped identify the targets of this event, who, on the orders of Judge Irving Kaufman, were hurriedly executed before the start of the Sabbath. For 10 points, name this event in which an American couple was convicted for passing atomic secrets to the USSR. ■END■
