In Light of IBM, Will GW Bush Admit His Own Nazi
nyfma.tao.ca/nyfma02738.html
The Bush family and IBM are in good company. Among the many corporations and famous American individuals with their own direct link to Nazi Germany were Henry Ford, JP Morgan, Du Pont, Mellon, Allen Dulles (America's first CIA director), John Foster Dulles (President Eisenhowers' Secretary of State), Charles Lindbergh, William Randolph Hearst, Alcoa Aluminum, Rockefellers' Standard Oil (now Exxon), General Motors, ITT and Chase Manhattan Bank.
The year 1935 marked the height of the Hearst Red baiting campaign in the universities.

Professor Schuman asked him how such things could be and quotes Wheeler's reply: "We just do what the Old Man orders. One week he orders a campaign against rats. The next week he orders a campaign against dope peddlers. Pretty soon he's going to campaign against college professors. It's all the bunk but orders are orders."
William Randolph Hearst, the first of the great press lords, ruler of a $220,000,000 domain, against whom an enlightened people has at last voiced its anger and disgust. For more than a generation Hearst posed as "the friend of the people" and many believed him. The Hearst communication system reached at least 30,000,000 people--he claimed that many readers for his newspapers, and many more millions for his magazines, newsreels and radio broadcasts
"This is but one of numerous instances of slanderous and libelous attacks upon American educators in the Hearst press. This strategy is exactly comparable to that of the Nazi press in Germany between 1920 and 1933. Mr. Hearst has evidently been taking lessons from Goring, Goebbels, Rosenberg and Hitler.
Mr. Hearst must be recognized as the propagandist and forerunner of American Hitlerism and must be met with a united counter-attack by all Americans who still value their liberties."
In 1936 the American Federation of Teachers passed a resolution demanding a boycott of Hearst as "the outstanding jingoist of the country" and a "constant enemy of academic freedom," and finally and more important, as the "chief exponent of Fascism in the United States."
He continued to denounce the Hearst newspapers for publishing "deliberate lies," and for "the gravest abuse of the power of the press in the history of this country." For thirty minutes Governor Smith of the State of New York denounced the publisher who was such a power in Tammany Hall, and concluded by asking the people of "this city, this state, and this country...to get rid of this pestilence that walks in the darkness."
Franklin Delano Roosevelt who once had the support of Hearst, was forced in the 1936 campaign to issue a statement against "a certain notorious newspaper owner" who tried to "make it appear that the President accepts the support of alien organizations hostile to the American form of government. These articles are conceived in malice and born of political spite. They are deliberately framed to give a false impression--in other words to 'frame' the American people..."
F.D. Roosevelt thus added his damnation of Hearst to that of Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt, among Presidents.

Victory in Europe Anniversary
www.nmaa.si.edu/1001/2000/05/050800.html
This year marks the 55th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, commemorating the unconditional surrender of Germany to the Allied Forces on May 8, 1945.
At the start of U.S. involvement in World War II, the Roosevelt administration wanted to counter the powerful antiwar messages of media figures such as newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst and radio personality Father Coughlin. They did so with propaganda posters.
Widely dispersed in low-cost campaigns, propaganda posters typically present a pointed, hard-hitting image that scream out their messages. Here, Karl Koehler and Victor Ancona portray a sinister Nazi officer, echoing Roosevelt's characterization of the Axis powers as gangsters, bandits, and criminals.

Whom Did the Fascists Support?
www.thirdworldtraveler.co...ds_Parenti
Italian fascism and German Nazism had their admirers within the U.S. business community and the corporate owned press. Bankers, publishers, and industrialists, including the likes of Henry Ford, traveled to Rome and Berlin to pay homage, receive medals, and strike profitable deals. Many did their utmost to advance the Nazi war effort, sharing military industrial secrets and engaging in secret transactions with the Nazi government, even after the United States entered the war. During the 1920s and early 1930s, major publications like Fortune, the Wall Street Journal, Saturday Evening Post, New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and Christian Science Monitor hailed Mussolini as the man who rescued Italy from anarchy and radicalism.

The Empire of I.G. Farben
www.mega.nu:8080/ampp/sut...ter_02.htm
Farben was Hitler and Hitler was Farben.
(Senator Homer T. Bone to Senate Committee on Military Affairs, June 4, 1943.)
On the eve of World War II the German chemical complex of I.G. Farben was the largest chemical manufacturing enterprise in the world, with extraordinary political and economic power and influence within the Hitlerian Nazi state. I. G. has been aptly described as "a state within a state."
It is these U.S. connections in Wall Street that concern us. Without the capital supplied by Wall Street, there would have been no I. G. Farben in the first place and almost certainly no Adolf Hitler and World War II.
The Economic Power of I. G. Farben
Qualified observers have argued that Germany could not have gone to war in 1939 without I. G. Farben. Between 1927 and the beginning of World War II, I.G. Farben doubled in size, an expansion made possible in great part by American technical assistance and by American bond issues, such as the one for $30 million offered by National City Bank. By 1939 I. G. acquired a participation and managerial influence in some 380 other German firms and over 500 foreign firms.
The Farben empire owned its own coal mines, its own electric power plants, iron and steel units, banks, research units, and numerous commercial enterprises. There were over 2,000 cartel agreements between I. G. and foreign firms including Standard Oil of New Jersey, DuPont, Alcoa, Dow Chemical, and others in the United States, The full story of I,G, Farben and its world-wide ae-tivities before World War II can never be known, as key German records were destroyed in 1945 in anticipation of Allied victory. However, one post-war investigation by the U.S,

I. G. Farben
Is a shortened version of the name Interessen Gemeinshaft Farbenindustrie which means " Community of Interest of the Dye Industry." It began as a trade association and developed more and more unified operations. Eventually, the seven companies involved joined into a single corporate unit known as I. G. Farbenindustrie, A. G. in 1925. The A. G. stands for Aktiengesellschaft, which translates to "sharecompany." Now you see why it is usually shortened to I. G. Farben.

SOME CRUDE HISTORY
www.zmag.org/zmag/article...nIraq.html
The U.S. Ambassador in London -- who happened to be Andrew Mellon, the head of the Gulf Oil Corporation (named for the Mexican, not the Persian/Arabian, Gulf) -- was instructed to press the British to give Gulf Oil a stake in the Middle East.<4> At the end of World War II, when the immense petroleum deposits in Saudi Arabia became known, Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal told Secretary of State Byrnes, "I don't care which American company or companies develop the Arabian reserves, but I think most emphatically that it should be _American_." And it wasn't the Russians that Forrestal was worried about. The main competition was between the United States and Britain for control of the area's oil.
In 1928, Standard Oil of New Jersey and Mobil had joined British and French oil interests in signing the "Red Line Agreement," under which each pledged not to develop Middle Eastern oil without the participation of the others. Nevertheless, after World War II these two U.S. firms (together with Texaco and Standard Oil of California) grabbed the Saudi concessions for themselves, freezing out the British and French. When the latter sued on the grounds that the Red Line Agreement had been violated, Mobil and Jersey told the court that the agreement was null and void because it was monopolistic.

Corporate Deals with Nazi Germany
www.ranknfile-ue.org/uen_nastybiz.html
Today, with corporate power magnified by the global economy and its international trade agreements, it is worthwhile to reflect on the behavior of "American" corporations at a time when fascism threatened to plunge the world into an anti-human abyss. The experiences of 60 years ago are a potent reminder of corporate power and greed that transcends national borders or patriotic allegiances.
Writing about the Big Three automakers dealings with Nazi Germany, Bradford Snell observed: "these firms retained the economic and political power to affect the shape of governmental relations both within and between these nations in a manner which maximized corporate global profits. In short, there were private governments unaccountable to the citizens of any country yet possessing tremendous influence over the course of war and peace in the world."
GM and Ford, through their subsidiaries, controlled 70 percent of the German automobile market when war broke out in 1939. Those companies "rapidly retooled themselves to become suppliers of war materiel to the Germany army," writes Michael Dobbs in the Washington Post.
"When American GIs invaded Europe in June 1944, they did so in jeeps, trucks and tanks manufactured by the Big Three motor companies in one of the largest crash militarization programs ever undertaken," observes Dobbs. "It came as an unpleasant surprise to discover that the enemy was also driving trucks manufactured by Ford and Opel a 100 percent GM-owned subsidiary and flying Opel-built warplanes."
The major U.S. automakers (including Chrysler) established multinational operations as early as the 1920s and 1930s, locating plants in Germany, eastern Europe and Japan.
Bringing corporate power to account remains the task of the worlds citizens today.
Compared to Ford and General Motors, GEs involvement appears less overt and extensive than that of the automakers. But it is nonetheless instructive, showing GEs more complex relationship to the Third Reich.

The Economic Power of I. G. Farben
Qualified observers have argued that Germany could not have gone to war in 1939 without I. G. Farben. Between 1927 and the beginning of World War II, I.G. Farben doubled in size, an expansion made possible in great part by American technical assistance and by American bond issues, such as the one for $30 million offered by National City Bank. By 1939 I. G. acquired a participation and managerial influence in some 380 other German firms and over 500 foreign firms.
The Farben empire owned its own coal mines, its own electric power plants, iron and steel units, banks, research units, and numerous commercial enterprises. There were over 2,000 cartel agreements between I. G. and foreign firms including Standard Oil of New Jersey, DuPont, Alcoa, Dow Chemical, and others in the United States, The full story of I,G, Farben and its world-wide ae-tivities before World War II can never be known, as key German records were destroyed in 1945 in anticipation of Allied victory. However, one post-war investigation by the U.S,

I. G. Farben
Is a shortened version of the name Interessen Gemeinshaft Farbenindustrie which means " Community of Interest of the Dye Industry." It began as a trade association and developed more and more unified operations. Eventually, the seven companies involved joined into a single corporate unit known as I. G. Farbenindustrie, A. G. in 1925. The A. G. stands for Aktiengesellschaft, which translates to "sharecompany." Now you see why it is usually shortened to I. G. Farben.
From Frank A. Howard, Buna Rubber: The Birth of an Industry. New York: D. van Nostrand Company, Inc., 1947.

SOME CRUDE HISTORY
www.zmag.org/zmag/article...nIraq.html
The U.S. Ambassador in London -- who happened to be Andrew Mellon, the head of the Gulf Oil Corporation (named for the Mexican, not the Persian/Arabian, Gulf) -- was instructed to press the British to give Gulf Oil a stake in the Middle East.<4> At the end of World War II, when the immense petroleum deposits in Saudi Arabia became known, Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal told Secretary of State Byrnes, "I don't care which American company or companies develop the Arabian reserves, but I think most emphatically that it should be _American_." And it wasn't the Russians that Forrestal was worried about. The main competition was between the United States and Britain for control of the area's oil.
In 1928, Standard Oil of New Jersey and Mobil had joined British and French oil interests in signing the "Red Line Agreement," under which each pledged not to develop Middle Eastern oil without the participation of the others. Nevertheless, after World War II these two U.S. firms (together with Texaco and Standard Oil of California) grabbed the Saudi concessions for themselves, freezing out the British and French. When the latter sued on the grounds that the Red Line Agreement had been violated, Mobil and Jersey told the court that the agreement was null and void because it was monopolistic.

WHITE BRED
Jeff Gordon and his associates initiated a trackside demonstration of their teams neo-nazi values last Sunday. White power salutes waved throughout the crowded speedway shunning anyone that might appear different than most god fearing NASCAR fans. "We aint seen change in this sport for 51 years and now aint no time to start" explained Jeff Gordons crew chief Jimmy-Ray Jenkins. NASCAR spokespeople say they support team DuPonts beliefs and will soon be selling white hoods along with confederate flags as souvenirs. www.NoRight.com
Die netten Hurenshne der USA: Hitler - Saddam - Bin Laden

General Motors, in den 30ern kontrolliert von dem Chemieunternehmer und glhenden Nazi Iren DuPont, lieferte der deutschen Wehrmacht nicht nur das wichtigste Fahrzeug fr ihren Blitzkrieg, den Opel Blitz, sondern zusammen mit Rockefellers Standard Oil auch den Sprit sowie Patente und Kapital fr die IG Farben. George W. Bushs Urgrovater und Grovater machten bis 1942 als Banker ein Vermgen mit Investitionen ins Dritte Reich (zur Bush-DuPont-Nazi Connection The Elkhorn Manifesto http:/wealth4freedom.com/Elkhorn.html Coca Cola war selbstverstndlich Grosponsor der Olympiade 1936. In seinem Buch "Facts & Faschism" (1943) listete der Autor George Seldon - eine Art Ralph Nader der 30er & 40er Jahre - eine ganze Phalanx hochrangiger US-Investoren auf, die massiv in Geschfte mit den Nazis involviert waren. Auch Adolf war insofern einer dieser "netten Hurenshne" der USA, was die Schuld seiner rasenden Mitlufer nicht geringer macht, aber die Dankbarkeit fr die Befreier doch ein wenig relativiert - ohne ihr vorheriges Groinvestment in den Faschismus wre die Befreiung vermutlich gar nicht ntig geworden. Das "Volk ohne Raum" htte nmlich mangels Mobilitt zuhause bleiben mssen.

Corporate Deals with Nazi Germany
www.ranknfile-ue.org/uen_nastybiz.html
Today, with corporate power magnified by the global economy and its international trade agreements, it is worthwhile to reflect on the behavior of "American" corporations at a time when fascism threatened to plunge the world into an anti-human abyss. The experiences of 60 years ago are a potent reminder of corporate power and greed that transcends national borders or patriotic allegiances.
Writing about the Big Three automakers dealings with Nazi Germany, Bradford Snell observed: "these firms retained the economic and political power to affect the shape of governmental relations both within and between these nations in a manner which maximized corporate global profits. In short, there were private governments unaccountable to the citizens of any country yet possessing tremendous influence over the course of war and peace in the world."
GM and Ford, through their subsidiaries, controlled 70 percent of the German automobile market when war broke out in 1939. Those companies "rapidly retooled themselves to become suppliers of war materiel to the Germany army," writes Michael Dobbs in the Washington Post.
"When American GIs invaded Europe in June 1944, they did so in jeeps, trucks and tanks manufactured by the Big Three motor companies in one of the largest crash militarization programs ever undertaken," observes Dobbs. "It came as an unpleasant surprise to discover that the enemy was also driving trucks manufactured by Ford and Opel a 100 percent GM-owned subsidiary and flying Opel-built warplanes."
The major U.S. automakers (including Chrysler) established multinational operations as early as the 1920s and 1930s, locating plants in Germany, eastern Europe and Japan.
Bringing corporate power to account remains the task of the worlds citizens today.
Compared to Ford and General Motors, GEs involvement appears less overt and extensive than that of the automakers. But it is nonetheless instructive, showing GEs more complex relationship to the Third Reich.
