Author, Bush Unplugged: The True patriot’s Guide To George W. Bush

OpEdNews.Com

The Bushies are people who have a long, documented history of operating above the law and getting rich at the expense of real patriotic Americans. If you’re looking for an “October surprise” to swing Bush supporters and undecided holdouts there’s no better way than to expose the greed and corruption that lies at the very heart of the BUSH CRIME FAMILY. I’ve never found a Bush supporter (or non-voter) that did not express shock and outrage when they come to find out that the Bush family has done extensive business and made fortunes dealing with three of the most despotic regimes in world history: Hitler’s Nazis, the Communist Chinese and the Saudi Royal Family.

These unsettling realities, coupled with the fact that the three eldest sons of George H.W. Bush have profited millions from illegal and fraudulent scams—that ultimately cost working folks billions of dollars—reveals patterns of behavior and sews the seeds of BETRAYAL in the minds of even the most hardened party loyalists. Basic human nautre dictates that once we realize we’ve been betrayed our desire to remain loyal to a person or a cause completely breaks down. Without this innate defense mechanism our species would never have survived over the millennia.

So for the sake of the survival of the species, here are some of the greatest hits from the BUSH CRIME FAMILY archives to pass along like a virus infecting a deserving host.

Bush’s grandfather, one Prescott Bush Sr., was a founding director of the Union Banking Corporation (UBC) in New York City . In 1942, just months after Hitler declared war on America , the U.S. government seized Prescott Bush’s Union Banking Corporation under the “Trading with the Enemy Act” for operating as a front organization for the Nazis. Yes, you read that right! The Grand Daddy of all Bushes must have shit a brick when he saw this headline: 'Hitler's Angel Has 3 Million in US Bank,' plastered on the front page of the New York Herald Tribune on a July morning in 1942. The story reported that Hitler's “angel,” financier Fritz Thyssen, had stowed $3 million in Union Banking Corp., possibly to be held for "Nazi bigwigs."

In fact, the U.S. government ordered the seizure of four Nazi German banking operations in New York City , all of which were directed by Prescott Bush Senior and a few partners.

Just days after the Union Bank seizure President Roosevelt’s administration seized two other corporations managed by Prescott Bush and his partners. The Holland-American Trading Corporation and the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation, both managed by the Bush-Harriman bank, were accused by the U.S. government of being front organizations for Hitler’s Third Reich. Days later the federal government seized the Nazi-controlled assets of yet another Bush-Harriman Company, the Silesian-American Corporation, under the Trading with the Enemy Act for doing business with the Nazis.

John Loftus, a former U.S. Department of Justice Nazi War Crimes prosecutor and President of the Florida Holocaust Museum wrote, “Union Banks' books and accounts were frozen by the U.S. Alien Property Custodian in 1942 and not released back to the Bush family until 1951. At that time, Union Bank shares representing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of industrial stocks and bonds were unblocked for distribution… Prescott Bush and his father in law (one George Herbert Walker) each received one share of Union Bank stock, worth $750,000 each.” That’s $1.5 million—a helluva lot of money back in 1951.

Just as the Union Banking story broke, Prescott Senior is said to have volunteered for the chairmanship of United Service Organizations and traveled the country raising millions of dollars to help boost the morale of US troops during World War II. Whether he made this maneuver out of some sense of patriotic guilt or a desire to cleanse his image we’ll never know for sure. What we do know for sure is that his work on behalf of U.S. troops gave him the kind of profile he needed to get elected to public office.

Grand Daddy Bush was extremely lucky because the mainstream press didn’t pursue or report on his years of doing business with the Nazis. And it would seem that the journalistic Gods have so blessed his clan to this very day. Prescott Bush Senior later went on to become a United States senator representing Connecticut from 1952 to 1963. His political opponents didn’t make any fuss about his past business relationship with the most despicable regime in world history, and it would seem that the political Gods have so blessed his clan to this very day.

The $1.5 million was reportedly put into a trust fund for Prescott Bush’s son, George “Herbert Walker” Bush who would go on to become the 41^st president of the United States.

In “George Bush Senior: The Unauthorized Biography,” authors Webster G. Tarpley & Anton Chaitkin reveal a disturbingly detailed account of Prescott Bush’s involvement with Fritz Thyssen (Hilter’s angel) and the Nazis dating back to the early 1920s. The authors also point to glaring evidence that would indicate that the Bush family fortune was largely a result of the Nazi-banking project.

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree!

Prescott Bush Junior, son of the Nazi banker Bush, was an international business consultant repeatedly accused of capitalizing on his position as the brother of President Bush 41. In February 1989, Prescott Jr. visited Communist China and was lavished with red carpet treatment while meeting with top Chinese economic officials to discuss a broad array of new business ventures. Uncle Press’s trip just so happened to take place a mere ten days before brother George’s presidential visit to Communist Red China.

Bush 41’s little presidential junket was the first since Nixon’s breakthrough visit to China in 1972. But it was Bush Senior’s ‘89 visit that inspired China ’s growing pro-democracy movement to “take it to the streets.” However, the appearance of Big Bush on Chinese soil did little to soften the resolve of the repressive communist regime when it came to cracking down on civilian dissidents hell bent on democracy and freedom.

A few months after Bush’s visit Chinese government troops massacred what was estimated to be hundreds of pro-democracy demonstrators at Tiananmen Square in Beijing . As a result, all U.S. businesses were forced to stop further investment in China under Federal U.S. sanctions. All business other than that of the president’s brother Prescott, that is.

Prescott Jr. found it in himself to put U.S Sanctions, Marshall law and the murder of hundreds of peaceful demonstrators’ aside and kept right on wheeler dealing with this despotic government that routinely murdered, tortured and jailed its citizens. A few months after Tiananmen Square, Uncle Press was back in China setting up the same international satellite communications networking deal that he was promoting before the massacre, along with various other projects. Later that year, Bush 41 granted a special “NATIONAL SECURITY waiver” that allowed the sale of two Hughes Aircraft satellites to the otherwise strictly sanctioned Chinese (which they probably used to spy on the U.S. and our allies). Par for the course, Hughes Aircraft was also a hefty campaign contributor to Bush Senior’s presidential campaigns. And par for the course, Prescott Jr. denied any conflict of interest whatsoever, yet conceded to the Wall Street Journal… “It doesn't hurt that my brother is the president of the United States .” No shit, Sherlock!

It would seem that once the door was opened by Bush 41 in 1989, Prescott Bush went on to befriend and hold influence with the wealthiest, most powerful men in that otherwise closed society. Uncle Press would then go on to become founder and chairman of the USA-China Chamber of Commerce. And thanks largely to Prescott Bush, a veritable orgy of investment by U.S. corporate barons began to take shape in that highly repressive Communist dictatorship—that Uncle Press was so uniquely qualified to serve.

Nowadays, the results of our cozy relationship with China have become painfully clear when we shop the aisles of Walmart and/or just about everywhere else in America . The ubiquitous “made in China ” label that’s displaced so many U.S. workers dominates the American retail landscape. As we’re learning the U.S. labor force simply can’t compete with our Chinese counterparts who work like slaves and bring home in one week much less than what American workers make in one hour. But the good news is the corporate fat cats that have invested mightily in the Bush Dynasty over the last three decades are making a mint doing business with their Communist counterparts. The same repressive dictators who are responsible for a large chunk of the new world record U.S. trade deficit that has ballooned under the presidency of George W. Bush.

Nazi’s, commies and now terrorist financiers!

It’s no secret that the majority of the funding for bin Laden’s al Qaeda, a global terror network with cells in some 60 countries, came from, and reportedly still comes from Saudi Arabia . The same can be said for the terror organizations aligned against Israel , our number one ally in the Middle East . Over the past decades wealthy Saudi’s have put billions of dollars into the hands of Hezbollah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the notorious Muslim Brotherhood.

The Saudi government sponsored the Taliban in Afghanistan —their despotic Wahhabi brethren. Saudi money wound up in the hands of the 9/11 terrorists, and 15 of the 19 hijackers hailed from the despotic desert fiefdom.

Wealthy Saudis have donated billions of dollars to Muslim charities that sponsor militant seminary schools churning out the next generation of human cannonballs—hell bent on blowing us all to shit!

Human rights organizations consistently rank Saudi Arabia among the top six most repressive and despotic dictatorships on earth. This is a country where an average citizen could get his head chopped off for speaking out against the Saudi Royal family, and women have fewer privileges than most Americans afford their cats and dogs.

So why is that the Saudis didn’t wind up in George Bush’s axis of evil doers? After all, none of these terror organizations could exist without massive amounts of cash. The explanation is simple if you just follow the money.

The Bush’s and the “Saudi Oil Family” are arguably the two most powerful ruling dynasties on earth and over the past two decades they’ve forged close business, political and personal ties. This special relationship was borne out of a natural desire to facilitate each other’s missions. The Saudi’s desire to curry political favor and investment opportunities inside the U.S. makes Team Bush, which produced the only two American presidents who were career oilmen, the perfect allies. Saudi Prince Bandar Bin Sultan, longtime ambassador to the U.S. and one of the most influential members of the Saudi Oil Family, befriended Bush Senior soon after he became Vice President in 1981. The two men became fast friends and hung out together regularly throughout the 80s. So chummy were these two guys that Bush the elder was know to have referred to Prince Bandar as “Bandar Bush.” And it was Prince Bandar who introduced Bush Senior to untold numbers of Saudi billionaires, which opened the door to all sorts of high stakes arms, energy and financial dealings between Bush & Co. and the desert oligarchs. According to Craig Unger, author of House of Bush—House of Saud, 1.4 billion dollars flowed from the Saudi elites to the Bush family and their special interests alone over the past decades, which of course explains why the Saudi’s didn’t wind up in George Bush’s axis of evil doers? It also explains why Bush the lesser has framed the discussion on the war on terror in terms of good and evil, when after all, it’s all about money and power—the real root of all evildoers.
