Who Is George W. Bush?
by Toby Rogers and Nick Mamatas
... Prescott Bush, the father of the former President and the grandfather of
the current candidate, spent more than a decade helping his father-in-law
George Herbert Walker finance Adolf Hitler from the Wall Street bank, Union
Banking Corporation. (Union Banking Corp. was eventually seized under the
Trading With The Enemy Act. See Office of Alien Property Custodian, Vesting
Order No. 248; Filed, November 6, 1942, 11:31 A.M.; 7 Fed. Reg. 9097 (Nov.
7, 1942).)
Walker was one of Hitler's most powerful supporters in the United States,
and landed Prescott Bush a job as a director at the firm. From 1924 to 1936,
Bush's bank invested heavily in Germany, selling $50 million of German bonds
to American investors. In 1934, a congressional investigation believed that
Walker's Hamburg-America Line subsidized a wide range of pro-Nazi efforts in
both Germany and the United States.
One of Walker's employees, Dan Harkins, delivered testimony to Congressional
leaders regarding Walker's Nazi sympathies and business transactions.
According to US Government Vesting Order No. 248, many of Union Banking's
assets had been operated on behalf of Nazi Germany and had been used to
support the German war effort. The U.S. Alien Property Custodian vested the
Union Banking Corp.'s stock shares and also issued two other Vesting Orders
(nos. 259 and 261) to seize two other Nazi-influenced organizations managed
by Bush's bank: Holland American Trading Corporation and Seamless Steel
Equipment Corporation. Many major firms had dealings with Nazis in the years
leading up to World War II, but relatively few engaged in such extended
cooperation with Hitler's Germany after Pearl Harbor. (The Secret War
Against The Jews by John Loftus and Mark Aarons. New York; St. Martins
Press, 1994.) " More recently, both George W. Bush and his father, the
former President, had been forced to deal with anti-Semitism in Poppy's
campaign, according to the Albian Monitor story: "Nazism was more than a
joke to George Bush when he was running for President.... In the fall of
1988, Vice President Bush had to fire several neo-Nazis and anti-Semites
from his Presidential campaign. The scandal erupted when Washington Jewish
Week and other media outlets discovered that the Bush campaign harbored well
known neo-Nazis, including Jerome Brentar, a holocaust revisionist who
claims that the Nazis never deliberately gassed victims of the Holocaust,
and Akselis Mangulis, who was involved in the SS-influenced Latvian Legion
during World War II.8 George W. Bush, the campaign's hatchet man, fired the
Nazis.... After the election, four of these came back to work for the
Republican Party according to USA Today. (Old Nazis, The New Right And The
Republican Party by Russ Bellant. Boston, MA; South End Press, 1991.)...In
September of 1999, when many Republicans were calling for Pat Buchanan to
resign from the Party for his seeming affection for Hitler and criticism of
the US actions during World War II, the presidential front-runner remained
silent." Politex, 8/8/00 Office of Alien Property Custodian, Vesting Order
No. 248, signed by Leo T. Crowley, 7 Fed. Reg. 9097 (Nov. 7, 1942) Alien

Corporation (owned by Prescott Bush)) Elimination of German Resources for
War; Hearings Before a Subcommittee of the U.S. Department of Military
Affairs, United States Senate, 79th Congress, July 2, 1945, p. 507) Alien
