Most people responding to this thread = BLAH BLAH BLAH
Yeah, there are no conspiracies, people don't get together and CONSPIRE to do shit like, say, falsify intelligence to start a war or CONSPIRE to spread fear so you fucking sheeple will give up your Right's to be safe, kinda like the shit George Orwell wrote about in 1948. Most of you tools have been conditioned to respond to any suggestion that thing's might not be as they seem with references to tinfoil hats. So keep making references to The Skulls, which I haven't seen btw because it stars that douche from Dawson's Creek, and sleep because all is well. What's really telling is how many of your are more concerned with how Warner Brothers is going to market The Dark Knight after the death of Heath Ledger then the way your right to elect your Goverment Representitives is being taken away from you. |

A group I'll add that Prescott Bush, GWB's grandfather, was a member of. He also happened to make his fourtune dealing with the Nazi's and then used that money to get into the energy industry, specifically Oil. Funny, that would almost sound like a conpiracy theory if it wasn't true.

Dude, you want the facts about this, and I mean FACTS not hazily remembered bullshit off some thirdhand blog, then you owe it to yourself to get this book
And the facts -- the REALITY, not this hilariously stupid election-rigging skull-and-bones nonsense -- will by themselves blow your mind. Seriously. Check it out. |
| Harriman Bank was the main Wall Street connection for several German companies and the varied U.S. financial interests of Fritz Thyssen. Thyssen had been an early financial backer of the Nazi party until 1938, but by 1939 had fled Germany and was bitterly denouncing Hitler. He was later jailed by the Nazis for his opposition to the regime. Business transactions with Germany were not illegal when Hitler declared war on the United States on December 11, 1941, but, six days after the attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt signed the Trading With the Enemy Act after it had been made public that U.S. companies were doing business with the declared enemy of the United States. On October 20, 1942, the U.S. government ordered the seizure of German banking operations in New York City. Roosevelt's Alien Property Custodian, Leo T. Crowley, signed Vesting Order Number 248 seizing Bush's property under the Trading with the Enemy Act. The order cited only the Union Banking Corporation (UBC), of which Bush was a director and held one share, which had connections with a Dutch bank owned by Thyssen. Fox News has reported that recently declassified material reveals that the 4,000 Union Banking shares owned by the Dutch bank were registered in the names of the seven U.S. directors, according a document signed by Homer Jones, chief of the division of investigation and research of the Office of Alien Property Custodian, a World War II-era agency. [5]. By 1941 Thyssen no longer had control over his banking empire, which was in the hands of the Nazi government. The assets were held by the government for the duration of the war, then returned afterward. UBC was dissolved in 1951. Bush was on the board of directors of UBC and held one share in the company. For it, he was reimbursed $1,500,000. These assets were later used to launch Bush family investments in the Texas energy industry. Toby Rogers has claimed that Bush's connections to Silesian businesses (with Thyssen and Flick) make him complicit with the mining operations in Poland which used slave labor out of Oświęcim, where the Auschwitz concentration camp was later constructed. The New York Herald-Tribune referred to Thyssen as "Hitler's Angel" and mentioned Bush as an employee of the investment banking firm Thyssen used in the United States. Some records in the National Archives, including the Harriman papers, document the continued relationship of Brown Brothers Harriman with Thyssen and some of his German investments up until his 1951 death.[6] Investigator John Loftus has said, "As a former federal prosecutor, I would make a case for Prescott Bush, his father-in-law (George Walker) and Averell Harriman [to be prosecuted] for giving aid and comfort to the enemy. They remained on the boards of these companies knowing that they were of financial benefit to the nation of Germany." Two former slave laborers from Poland have filed suit in London against the government of the United States and the heirs of Prescott Bush in the amount of $40 billion. A class-action lawsuit filed in the U.S. in 2001 was dismissed based on the principle of state sovereignty.[7] |

Either it's not Shade or Shade's decided to become a shittier writer to fool everyone, which would be even more pathetic than him posting in his usual bloated, pedantic manner. It would probably be more work for him to swallow his pride and insert all of those random-seeming typos and improperly-placed apostrophes. If it is him, at least the screen name isn't an exercise in "look what I'm reading, Mommy!" this time.

You guys think there's some shortage of people with a half-assed public education?

I've been on these boards for a long time. I know when one of you is taking time away from the work your supposed to be doing in your cubicle. No need to be sorry for making fun of my thread, it was obvious, unclever and I've read enough of your posts over time to know that you fit right in on these boards.
But you are partially right, there isn't meaning behind everyhing and sometimes thing's are as they seem. It's just my belief that, based on what I've read about human history/behavior, when it comes to power, money and most especally politicians you can't risk taking anything at face value. You would have to be stupid not to and I think the people of Germany would agree. I would think that given how the Bush Administration has used 9/11 to it's advantage (in terms of eroding civil liberties, starting a war based on false pretenses and allowing the Oil companies to use said war as an excuse to drive oil to $100 per barrel) that people would be a bit more skeptical about the 2004 election with John Kerry and George W. Bush being a part of this little clique. A group I'll add that Prescott Bush, GWB's grandfather, was a member of. He also happened to make his fourtune dealing with the Nazi's and then used that money to get into the energy industry, specifically Oil. Funny, that would almost sound like a conpiracy theory if it wasn't true. But if you can't handle that then sleep well knowing that Oswald acted alone. |
