It is you who is reading in to it what you want. It has not all been disproved. Maybe some of it has. Even the article you quote says that some of it has a basis in fact. Your assertion that "it is disproved" is not correct for the part that has basis in fact. Even according to the article. No wonder you're an attorney. You can argue any old point with full obnoxiousness, whether you are right or wrong. "The central charge against Prescott Bush has a basis in fact. In 1942, under the Trading With the Enemy Act, the U.S. government seized several companies in which he had an interest. Prescott at the time was an investment banker with Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH), which had funneled U.S. capital into Germany during the 1920s and '30s. Among the seized companies was the Union Banking Corporation (UBC) of New York, which was controlled by German industrialist Fritz Thyssen. Thyssen had been an early financier of the Nazi party--in fact, in 1941 he published a book entitled I Paid Hitler. Ergo, Prescott helped finance the Nazis."
