georgewalkerbush.net So the data provided here is False Slagle? Prescott and George herbert walker were just pawns of FDR and his political aspirations of the day to rob wealth from them and to discredit them because they opposed his party? I will keep an open mind - how do you know these things? What specific facts they present here are false? I got moo telling me bush is going into iran and not north korea because of OIL - has nothing to do with nookular, seems like patterns repeat - but if all that posted on that website is a lie then maybe not - hehe. I read california practiced eugenics and that is where hitler got the idea from - but popular media tries to paint it a different way eh? So I am willingly corrected if my perceptions are wrong. ...After the war, Congressional investigation revealed that Fritz Thyssen's German Steel Trust, Germany's largest industrial corporation [which interlocked with Union Banking Corporation] produced a high percentage of Germany's national output of metal products and explosives. Vesting Orders signed by the Office of Alien Property Custodian, Leo T. Crowley, which were "published in obscure government record books and kept out of the news, explained nothing about the Nazis involved; only that the Union Banking Corporation was run for the 'Thyssen family' of 'Germany and/or Hungary'-- 'nationals...of a designated enemy country.'" "In October 1942, ten months after entering World War II, America was preparing its first assault against Nazi military forces. Prescott Bush was managing partner of Brown Brothers Harriman. His 18-year-old son George, the future U.S. President, had just begun training to become a naval pilot. On Oct. 20, 1942, the U.S. government ordered the seizure of Nazi German banking operations in New York City which were being conducted by Prescott Bush. "Under the Trading with the Enemy Act, the government took over the Union Banking Corporation, in which Bush was a director. 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. 1. By Oct. 26, 1942, U.S. troops were under way for North Africa. On Oct. 28, the government issued orders seizing two Nazi front organizations run by the Bush-Harriman bank: the Holland-American Trading Corporation and the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation. 2. "U.S. forces landed under fire near Algiers on Nov. 8, 1942; heavy combat raged throughout November. 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 Nov. 17, 1942. In this action, the government announced that it was seizing only the Nazi interests, leaving the Nazis' U.S. partners to carry on the business. 3. Now I understand we tried to give them money to keep them from going back into militant states and conduct war, I am not saying bush and friends intentionally funded a war machine to hurt the USA - but perhaps in their good nature and nice benevolence to help them, they actually gave them what they needed to start the war machine again. What do you think would have happened slagle if we had given them no funding, but left them completely poor broke and starving - could they have got the war machine going without good capital spread? El mat is telling me spreading that capital helps things get built, so if we want to choke off a certain group or ideaology - choking off that capital is one tool eh? Could germany and the nazi party have risen to the levels they did if instead of trying to help them with funding, we had squashed it and broke thier backs and not gave them any kind of help? Would yamamoto have been such a great leader without his USA harvard education? Sometimes ignorant benevolence can be dangerous too eh?
