How Bush's grandfather helped Hitler's rise to power

Rumours of a link between the US first family and the Nazi war machine have circulated for decades..

..please.. read a full article :: www.guardian.co.uk...

George Bush's grandfather, the late US senator Prescott Bush, was a director and shareholder of companies that profited from their involvement with the financial backers of Nazi Germany.
The Guardian has obtained confirmation from newly discovered files in the US National Archives that a firm of which Prescott Bush was a director was involved with the financial architects of Nazism.

His business dealings, which continued until his company's assets were seized in 1942 under the Trading with the Enemy Act, has led more than 60 years later to a civil action for damages being brought in Germany against the Bush family by two former slave labourers at Auschwitz and to a hum of pre-election controversy.

The evidence has also prompted one former US Nazi war crimes prosecutor to argue that the late senator's action should have been grounds for prosecution for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

yea,but they make a good canned bean

I think Hitler was a puppet who broke his strings and scared the crap out of his industrialist masters. History which teaches Hitler as a lone demigod of evil do us no justice in our understanding of the world and the way it works.

The nose of the beast is not the beast, it just grows another one.

While I do think that we are living in some sort of post Nazi ruling era ( look at our security situation here in the states), I cannot take this article too seriously because it is from the Gaurdian.

I just do not like the biased "news" they produce.

I starred and flagged you anyway. It brings some truth out in the open. ( I hope)

What is the latest price of tea in China?

Pre-U.S. involvement WWII Prescott Bush supposedly conspired to over throw the U.S. government. He and his group of conspiraters were caught but Prescott Bush somehow weaseled his way out.

His Wiki page has a quote from the Anti-Defamation League that claims that all ties to the Nazism are untrue, this statement was released in 2003 which just happens to be year coming up to George W.'s reelection (good timing right)
