A Short History of American Fascists and the GOP (from leveymg @ DU) http://tinyurl.com/g9spt

Most of us here have learned that Dubya's Grandfather and Great Uncle were Hitler's American bankers, managing the Union Trust Bank in NY, controlled by Fritz Thyssen and Herman Goering, which was a primary conduit for dollars that flowed to the Nazi regime.

But, not many know that Eisenhower's Secretary of State and Director of CIA had been Hitler's American lawyers. That's right, the Dulles brothers headed the Wall Street firm Sullivan & Cromwell, that represented the biggest German commercial interests between the Wars, even after Germany went to war with England and had conquered most of Europe.

The Dulles Brothers also represented Standard Oil that continued supplying Nazi Germany with petroleum for almost a year after war was declared, until FDR threatened the Rockefellers with nationalization and prosecution for violation of the Trading With The Enemy Act. Standard was also German chemical giant I.G. Farben's business partner.

Instead of rounding up American Fifth Columnists, as did the British, wealthy Americans with long and well-known fascist sympathies were placed in positions within OSS and military intelligence. They facilitated the escape of Nazis when the war ended, and continued to recruit Nazis into western intelligence networks.

By the way, John Foster Dulles was the Chairman of the Republican National Committee during the 1930s and early 1940s. Prescott Bush was his protege. In the mid-1970s, G.H.W. Bush was also awarded the post of Chairman of the RNC and head of U.S. Intel, for no readily apparent reason.

That's the inside story of how the Bushes got where they did.

Now this is what American history text books should say. None of this is theory, it's all fact. And it's only the tip of the iceberg...
