Newsweek : Bush made his fortune off Killing Jews in Nazi Germany!
Edited on Sat Aug-16-03 04:12 PM by VoteClark
This article appeared ONLY in a recent Polish Newsweek addition (why not the American version, don't know). The Bush Family made its' money off the slave labor of Jews in the Nazi Concentration Camps. Prescott Bush, the Grandfather of G.W. Bush was director that invested and backed the Nazis.

Willian Bennett, former Secretary of Education and Drug Czar under the Bush Sr. Administration, said on Fox News,"The son should not be punished of the sins of the father." OK, but should he not pay that money back? Or is it OK to profit from the sins of the father too?

Prescott Bush, E. Roland Harriman, three Nazi executives, and two Bush family friends, owned all of the stock shares of the Union Banking Corp. which backed Nazi Germany and made a huge fortune off the slave labor camps in Germany during WWII.

This is the English translation of the Polish Article that appeared in the June 2003 addition of Newsweek:

"The Bush family made a profit from the Auschwitz prisoners’ slave labour. Prescott Sheldon Bush, ‘Dubya’s’ grandfather, had tight financial connections with the Nazis, thanks to which he multiplied the family’s fortune as a banker. Under the "Trading with the Enemy Act" FDR order several raids of the "Union Banking Corporation" which funding the Nazi efforts, and eventually took it over. Prescott Bush was the http://www.scoop.co.nz/mason/stories/HL0306/S00055.htm

Would it not be poetic justice, if the grandson of a Jew, Wesley Clark, defeated the grandson of a Nazi, George W. Bush, in a US Presidential election?

Clark! Kick the ass of the man that got rich off the blood of your family!

4. I don't know. I don't know why the didn't in the first place.
It took me a long time to find it. I was actually looking for something else. But some of my finds gave me an idea, and I got this polish website on accident, and it said it had a english translation. I don't think I could have found that one purpose. I didn't even know they had a Polish Version of Newsweek.

2. So the family values were passed on as well as the
philosophy of "Mein Kampf". Now we have Herr Shrubya who doesn't care about how many die for or because of him.

6. It is actually worse than that
When they Germans were fighting the Russians, the Bush's backed the loser more. When Russia got ahead, they funded Germany more, when Germany was getting ahead, they funding the Russians more. They wanted it to continue because they made a profit. Sick, sick, sick.

3. Is that periodical related to the Newsweek here?
It could look like another propaganda piece.

5. NO, it is a real Newsweek. There was a similar piece elsewhere.
I found Newsweek more creditable though. I also got two translations to make sure.

7. Yes.
Newsweek has several international editions. They use different content than the U.S. version, because their audiences are different.
I think the article in question would be construed differently here; it would be seen as a political issue that might even be unfair (although I would love to see it appear.)
The problem is, this is OLD news. The facts are there; bringing them up would be a bit strange now; why didn't this information surface years and years ago, and why didn't somebody make a big thing out of it earllier???
Trust me; if it had been Bill Clinton's grandfather who profited off of slave labor by Jews in interment camps, we would all know it by heart, chapter and verse.

8. Could it be because Newsweek is conservative and that it would be seen
as a cheap shot because Bush had nothing to with it himself? I don't think you can connect W to this crime directly, but, he should say something and pay some repairations back to at least some Jewish familes.

This isn't really old news to most Americans. The Bush's were not known until the 1970's in mainstream America. Most Americans do not know this information from a creditable source.

17. It's not propaganda
Edited on Sun Aug-17-03 03:17 PM by Sophree
It's historical fact.

B*sh money is Nazi blood money.

On edit: Check this website out for further info. www.tarpley.net

It is not available in print addition because the * family is so powerful that they can carefully craft their own image and create their own version of history.

9. is interesting it would not appear in the American version

but not surprising. Also not surprising that it would not be the most debated thread either.

10. IT's one of things - people abroad having more knowledge
about this stuff than Americans. And then people wonder why Europeans have the opinions that they have.

13. Keep this one alive.
It may not have been Jr. who did it... but he benefitted from the wealth and connections.
