You're probably giving them too much credit. The spies would have to be US or UK, or puppets of those regimes, for them to say what we're saying. I suspect they don't favor the USSR over the Nazis.
Doesn't matter, if they were a German in 1938, they would have also hoped the Nazis locked up these communist spies in the same way as they would hope the Nazis would lock up a spy for the US.
(Although I can't help but feel like anyone who would spy for the US supported the Nazis...)
I agree. I'm just saying I don't think the person would sympathize.
