For­mer Army offi­cer and Jus­tice Depart­ment inves­ti­ga­tor John Lof­tus (along with co-author Mark Aarons) wrote the book The Secret War Against the Jews (St. Martin’s Press, copy­right 1994), one of the best books ever writ­ten about the intel­li­gence com­mu­nity. The book focuses largely on the intel­li­gence community’s rela­tion­ship with the petro­leum indus­try and inter­na­tional fas­cism. The pro­gram presents an analy­sis of the cen­tral points of the book includ­ing: the mas­sive, trea­so­nous col­lab­o­ra­tion between Amer­i­can indus­tri­al­ists and financiers (petro­leum indus­try mag­nates, in par­tic­u­lar) and the Axis pow­ers, before and dur­ing World War II; the role of these same ele­ments in the recy­cling of the prof­its reaped by the Nazis back into the hands of the peo­ple who had com­mit­ted the Third Reich’s crimes; Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s ill-fated attempt to try (at Nurem­berg) the Amer­i­can and British indus­tri­al­ists who had backed Hitler; Zion­ists’ suc­cess­ful use of Nel­son Rockefeller’s trea­so­nous, wartime col­lab­o­ra­tion with the Third Reich to pres­sure him (under threat of dis­clo­sure) into throw­ing deci­sive sup­port to the cre­ation of the state of Israel; the col­lab­o­ra­tion of George Bush’s fam­ily with the Third Reich; the role of Richard Nixon, Allen Dulles, Ronald Rea­gan and William Casey in the Cru­sade For Free­dom (an ille­gal domes­tic intel­li­gence oper­a­tion, in which Nazi col­lab­o­ra­tors and war crim­i­nals were imported into the United States for polit­i­cal pur­poses); the U.S.S. Liberty’s role in relay­ing elec­tronic intel­li­gence con­cern­ing Israeli mil­i­tary oper­a­tions to Egypt dur­ing the 1967 Six Day War and Israel’s dis­cov­ery of this (which led to their attack on the Lib­erty); Richard Nixon’s role in coa­lesc­ing the Nazi col­lab­o­ra­tors brought into the U.S. under the Cru­sade For Free­dom into a for­mal wing of the Repub­li­can party; the petro­leum industry’s delib­er­ate cre­ation of the “oil short­age” of 1979 in order to desta­bi­lize Jimmy Carter and pave the way for the mas­sive mil­i­tary buildup that took place under Ronald Rea­gan; the Rea­gan and Bush administration’s use of Monzer Al-Kassar as the cen­tral fig­ure in the Iran-Contra oper­a­tion (Al-Kassar is one of the world’s lead­ing ter­ror­ists and arms deal­ers and is cred­ited by the DEA with import­ing 20% of the heroin con­sumed in the United States); George Bush’s cre­ation of his own pri­vate intel­li­gence net­work and the use of this “gov­ern­ment within a gov­ern­ment” to effect the Iran-Contra and Iraq­gate weapons trans­fers; and the petro­leum industry’s delib­er­ate lur­ing of Sad­dam Hus­sein into Kuwait to pre­cip­i­tate the Per­sian Gulf War. (Recorded in June of 1995.)
