Hitler made the Bush family stinking rich!

DW | 28.03.2003 19:35

The present situation in the USA (and in the world) is in a way a continuation of Hitlers politics. That is not just some left rhetorics. G.W. Bush's grandfather Prescott Bush was in fact a racist banker who probably did more for Hitler than anyone else in the US, Henry Ford included.
After having studied these matters, no one should be surprised to find out that the world view of the present leader of the US, is racist, geoplolitical, neo-malthusian and social darwinist.

(I know some of the litterature Tarpley is refering to. This litterature is solid stuff, esteemed among professional scholars. Tarpley is NOT "yet another american theorist of conspiracy")

I've posted this stuff on my local DC Indymedia in response to trolls who denied the Bush/Nazi connnection, as well as the Farben/Bayer connnection...thought it'd be worthwhile posting it here, too. This stuff gets challenged a lot, but if you make a note of these official sources, you can shut people up easily.

PS...you know who manufactures Cipro, which was chosen by the USFDA as the drug of choice for anthrax well before 9/11, despite its poor showing in lab tests? Bayer.

--------

In late 1942, the U.S. Alien Property Custodian seized Union Banking Corp.'s stock shares, all of which were owned by Prescott Bush, E. Roland "Bunny" Harriman, three Nazi executives, and two other associates of Bush. This is on record as follows:

Office of Alien Property Custodian, Vesting Order Number 248. Signed by Leo T. Crowley, Alien Property Custodian, executed October 20, 1942; F.R. Doc. 42-11568; Filed, November 6, 1942. 7 Fed. Reg. 9097 (November 7,1942).

The government also issued orders seizing two Nazi front organizations run by the Bush-Harriman bank: the "Holland-American Trading Corporation" and the "Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation." Lastly, Nazi interests in the "Silesian-American Corporation," long managed by Prescott Bush and his father-in-law George Herbert Walker, were seized under the Trading with the Enemy Act on November 17, 1942.

The vesting orders are as follows:

Alien Property Custodian Vesting Order No. 259: Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation
Vesting Order Number 261: Holland-American Trading Corp.
Alien Property Custodian Vesting Order No. 370: Silesian-American Corp.

For the specific ties between the Bush-Harriman bank and Nazi industrialist Fritz Thyssen, see also:

October 5, 1942, Memorandum to the Executive Committee of the Office of Alien Property Custodian, stamped CONFIDENTIAL, from the Division of Investigation and Research, Homer Jones, Chief. Now declassified in United States National Archives, Suitland, Maryland annex. Note Record Group 131, Alien Property Custodian, investigative reports, in file box relating to Vesting Order Number 248.

As for I.G. Farben:

"Farben was Hitler and Hitler was Farben."
--Senator Homer T. Bone to Senate Committee on Military Affairs, June 4, 1943.

Regarding Standard Oil's treasonous collaboration with Farben, the U.S. War Department said:

"The story in short is that because of Standard Oil's determination to maintain an absolute monopoly of synthetic rubber developments in the United States, it fully accomplished I.G.'s purpose of preventing United States production by dissuading American rubber companies from undertaking independent research in developing synthetic rubber processes." (From U.S. Congress, House of Representatives, Special Committee on Un-American Activities, Investigation of Nazi Propaganda Activities and Investigation of Certain other Propaganda Activities. 73rd Congress, 2nd Session, Hearings No. 73-DC-4. (Washington: Government Printing Office, 1934), Volume VIII, p. 7525.)

An indictment charging twenty-four of I.G.'s highest officials with war crimes was filed with the United States Military Tribunal at Nuremberg. The trial was the sixth of the 12 Nuremberg Trials.

In his opening statement, U.S. Prosecutor Telford Taylor said: "One does not build a stupendous war machine in a fit of passion. Or an Auschwitz factory during a passing spasm of brutality. There will be no mistaking the ruthless purposefulness with which the defendants marked on the course of conduct. That purpose was to turn the German nation into a military machine and build it into an engine of destruction so terrifyingly formidable that Germany could impose her will and dominion on Europe."

The Farben executives were tried using the company's own documents. On July 29, 1948, sentences for mass murder and slavery were handed down at the Nuremberg trials to twelve Farben executives. The longest sentence dealt out was to Dr. Fritz ter Meer, a top executive and scientist on the Farben managing board.

The transcripts of these trials can be found in Trials of War Criminals Before the Nuremberg Military Tribunals, Under Control Council No. 10. (U.S. Government Printing Office, 1953) Documents in National Archives Collection, World War II Crimes Records

Also, see an ABC news article on legal action being taken against Bayer by Holocaust survivors, which links the company to I.G. Farben, at  http://www.candles-museum.com/Bayer.htm

Also:

"A clique of U.S. industrialists is hell-bent to bring a fascist state to supplant our democratic government and is working closely with the fascist regime in Germany and Italy. I have had plenty of opportunity in my post in Berlin to witness how close some of our American ruling families are to the Nazi regime. Certain American industrialists had a great deal to do with bringing fascist regimes into being in both Germany and Italy. They extended aid to help Fascism occupy the seat of power, and they are helping to keep it there."
--William E. Dodd, U.S. Ambassador to Germany, 1937.

Last, a little more info on Bayer/IG Farben:

For a personal account of a Jewish chemist forced to work for IG Farben read 'If This is a Man,' also published as 'Surviving Auschwitz' by Primo Levi.

Go to Bayer's Website today ( http://www.bayer.com/en/bayer/ub_po_termeer.php) and you will read the following biography of Fritz ter Meer, former head of IG Farben, and the recipient of the longest Nuremberg prison sentence of all Farben executives:

"When Chemische Fabriken Weiler-ter Meer was incorporated into I.G. Farbenindustrie in 1925, ter Meer was appointed to the Board of the new company. Following the reorganization in 1929, he was made head of the Organics Division, the most important division in the company. Three years later, he took over as Chairman of the Technical Committee. After Bayer AG was re-established in 1951, the company confirmed its confidence in ter Meer by appointing him Chairman of the Supervisory Board in 1956, a post he held until 1964. Fritz ter Meer died in Leverkusen on October 21, 1967."

Oddly enough, the site does not call attention to the fact that ter Meer spent seven years in prison after being convicted of mass murder due to his activities at Auschwitz.

Here are a couple of links relating to the reparations Bayer was eventually forced to pay to survivors of Auschwitz:

Great!

To Troll-Free Call:
Cheerio and thank you.
Well, we don't know do we, but one day people will be interested in the whole history of the Bush family, I sincerely belive and hope.
Errare humanum est, sed in errore perseverare turpe est.
It is human to err, but a country that goes on voting for the Bush family are wankers.
