REALAUDIO

Orig­i­nally recorded on Jan­u­ary 28, 2001, this pro­gram is only now being aired for the first time.

1. Sup­ple­ment­ing a line of inquiry devel­oped in past pro­grams, this broad­cast sets forth more cir­cum­stan­tial evi­dence that the Bush fam­ily may be the Amer­i­can point ele­ment of the remark­able and deadly Bor­mann orga­ni­za­tion.

2. A clan­des­tine pow­er­house, the Bor­mann group (in Mr. Emory’s opin­ion) will prove to be the deci­sive ele­ment in human affairs, bar­ring a sea-change in the polit­i­cal currents.

3. Recently, for­mer Jus­tice Depart­ment offi­cial John Lof­tus dis­closed that the Bush fam­ily for­tune came from the 1951 liq­ui­da­tion of the Union Bank­ing Cor­po­ra­tion.

(“Author Links Bush Fam­ily to Nazis;” Sara­sota Herald-Tribune; 11/11/2000.

4. Excerpt­ing a June, 1992 adden­dum to Mis­cel­la­neous Archive Show M-11, the pro­gram illus­trates that the Union Bank­ing Cor­po­ra­tion was con­fis­cated by the Alien Prop­erty Cus­to­dian in World War II.

(“Will Fam­ily Scan­dals Sink George Bush?” by Cur­tis Lang; Vil­lage Voice; 5/5/92.)

5. This firm was a front for the Thyssen inter­ests before, and dur­ing, the war. (Idem.) (Fritz Thyssen was one of Hitler’s ear­li­est and most promi­nent finan­cial backers.)

6. Much of the first side of the broad­cast con­sists of an excerpt of FTR-186. The dis­cus­sion fur­ther devel­ops the pro­found involve­ment of George Her­bert Walker (W’s great grand­fa­ther) and his son-in-law, Prescott Bush, (W’s grand­fa­ther) in the financ­ing of the Ger­man indus­trial con­cerns that backed Hitler.

7. In par­tic­u­lar, the excerpt from FTR-186 fur­ther under­scores the Walker-Bush involve­ment with the Union Bank­ing Cor­po­ra­tion. (Idem.)

8. The broad­cast also focuses heav­ily on the Hamburg-Amerika Line, one of the Bush-connected com­pa­nies that played a key role in Nazi espi­onage before, and dur­ing, World War II. (Idem.)

9. The com­pany helped to finance the oper­a­tions of the SS.

10. Hamburg-Amerika Line was also deeply involved with the Bor­mann flight cap­i­tal orga­ni­za­tion. When con­sid­er­ing Ger­man cor­po­ra­tions, it is impor­tant to remem­ber that they are con­trolled by the Bor­mann Orga­ni­za­tion. This insti­tu­tion has per­pet­u­ated its power in an effec­tive, clan­des­tine, and deadly, Mafia-like fash­ion in the years since World War II. Amer­i­can cor­po­ra­tions are dri­ven by the profit motive, and coor­di­nate poli­cies on labor, envi­ron­men­tal, mar­ket­ing and tax­a­tion issues–they are oth­er­wise rel­a­tively apo­lit­i­cal. In con­trast, Ger­man cor­po­ra­tions (under con­trol of the Bor­mann group) func­tion as coor­di­nated ele­ments of inter­na­tional eco­nomic and polit­i­cal con­trol, not unlike the divi­sions in an army. Although they, too, strive to make money, profit is sub­or­di­nate to the goal of Ger­man national hegemony.

11.The Hamburg-Amerika Line was among the firms dis­cussed in the August 10, 1944 meet­ing, at which SS Lieu­tenant Gen­eral Dr. Scheid coor­di­nated the gen­e­sis of the Bor­mann flight cap­i­tal pro­gram. “He [Scheid] also cited the Zeiss Com­pany, the Leica Com­pany, and the Hamburg-Amerika Line as typ­i­cal firms that had been espe­cially effec­tive in pro­tect­ing Ger­man inter­ests abroad. He gave New York addresses to the twelve men.” (Ibid.; p. 25.)

12. The firm also served as a con­duit for flight cap­i­tal in, among other coun­tries, Swe­den. “Swedish com­pa­nies owned or con­trolled by Ger­man ship­ping inter­ests accepted ves­sels built by the Swedish firms and kept them in Swedish waters until after the war. A fur­ther exam­ple of masked invest­ment was the money paid into the Swedish ship­ping firm of Red­eri A/B Skepps­bron, which received a German-guaranteed loan of $3 mil­lion made from Ger­man sup­plies of free Swedish Kro­ner, in which the ves­sels were mort­gaged to the lender. Although the Swedish com­pany remained offi­cially the owner of the ves­sels, the Ger­man Hamburg-Amerika line was the real owner.” (Ibid.; pp. 132–133.)

13. Fur­ther under­scor­ing the strong con­nec­tions between Walker, Prescott Bush Sr. and the Thyssen inter­ests, the pro­gram illus­trates that the Walker-Thyssen rela­tion­ship began in 1924. (The Secret War Against the Jews; p. 358.)

14. The close rela­tion­ship between Fritz Thyssen and Adolf Hitler began at about the same time. (Mar­tin Bor­mann: Nazi in Exile; by Paul Man­ning; pp. 242–3.)

15. The very close rela­tion­ship between the Thyssen fam­ily and Mar­tin Bor­mann is under­scored by the fact that Bor­mann uti­lizes the Thyssen family’s Latin Amer­i­can estates as homes and bases of oper­a­tion. (Ibid., p. 292.)

16. The Thyssen estates also serve as refuge for Bormann’s son, Adolf Mar­tin, and daugh­ter Neumi. (Ibid.; p. 290.)

17. Car­ry­ing on “an old fam­ily tra­di­tion,” Thyssen’s heir, Count Fred­erico Zichy-Thyssen man­ages the Thyssen heavy indus­trial firm, a crit­i­cal com­po­nent of the Bor­mann group. (Ibid.; pp. 256–7.)

18. One of Dubya’s last cab­i­net appoint­ments was Robert Zoel­lick, who was appointed U.S. Trade Rep­re­sen­ta­tive shortly before Bush took office.

(“Bush’s Trade Chief Rated as Smart, Smooth Nego­tia­tor” by Jonathan Petersen; Los Ange­les Times; 1/12/2001; p. A15.)

19. An excerpt from FTR-186 high­lights Zoellick’s role as a key for­eign pol­icy adviser to Bush dur­ing the cam­paign. (“Bush Ques­tions Aid to Moscow in a Pol­icy Talk” by R.W. Apple, Jr.; New York Times; 11/20/99.)

20. Under­scor­ing the prob­a­bil­ity of strong ties between the Bush camp and the Bor­mann group, the pro­gram sets forth Zoellick’s par­tic­i­pa­tion in the Ger­man Mar­shall Fund of the United States. (Idem.)

21. Set up as a P.R. front for Ger­man heavy indus­try, the Ger­man Mar­shall fund is, in effect, a Bor­mann front group. (Mar­tin Bor­mann: Nazi in Exile; by Paul Man­ning; pp. 261–262.)

22. Zoel­lick was one of the prin­ci­pal fig­ures in the launch­ing of NAFTA, as well as the Bush/Baker State Depart­ment point man in the nego­ti­a­tions that led to the reuni­fi­ca­tion of Ger­many. (“Bush Seek­ing To Over­haul Pol­icy Mak­ing” by Joseph Kahn and Frank Bruni; New York Times; 1/6/2001; pp. B1-14.)

23. Han­dling Ger­man reuni­fi­ca­tion, Zoel­lick must have worked closely with Gun­ther Strass­meier, Hel­mut Kohl’s for­mer chief of staff and the archi­tect of Ger­man reuni­fi­ca­tion. Strass­meier is the father of Andreas Strass­meier, a key fig­ure in the Okla­homa City bomb­ing inves­ti­ga­tion. (The Beast Reawak­ens, by Mar­tin A. Lee; hard­cover, Lit­tle Brown & Co., pp. 352–3, ISBN 0–316-51959–6.)

24. Zoel­lick also helped to mid­wife the World Trade Orga­ni­za­tion. (“Robert Bruce Zoel­lick;” by Joseph Kahn; New York Times; 1/12/2001; p. A15.)

25. A James Baker pro­tege, Zoel­lick worked with Baker in the Florida recount machi­na­tions. (“Bush’s Trade Chief Rated as Smart, Smooth Nego­tia­tor” by Jonathan Petersen; Los Ange­les Times; 1/12/2001; p. A15.)

26. Not sur­pris­ingly in light of the Bor­mann group’s deci­sive influ­ence in the Euro­pean econ­omy, Zoellick’s ascen­scion is viewed with favor by the EU. (“Zoel­lick Faces Task of Build­ing Trade Bridges;” by Edward Alden, Richard Wolffe, and Stephen Fidler; Finan­cial Times; 1/12/2001; p. 4.)

27. The pro­gram con­cludes with spec­u­la­tive infor­ma­tion sup­ple­ment­ing the dis­cus­sion in FTR-272. One of the prin­ci­pal Thyssen heirs (and Bor­mann asso­ciates) is Hein­rich Thyssen-Bornemisza. His finan­cial oper­a­tions are based in the Nether­lands, one of the prin­ci­pal places of busi­ness for old Fritz Thyssen. (Mar­tin Bor­mann: Nazi in Exile; by Paul Man­ning; p. 237.)

28. In the dis­cus­sion of ASM Lith­o­g­ra­phy (see FTR-272), the broad­cast high­lights the fact that the company’s full name is “ASM Lith­o­g­ra­phy Hold­ing.” (“ASM Lith­o­g­ra­phy Will Wait to Acquire Sil­i­con Val­ley Group” by Glenn R. Simp­son; Wall Street Jour­nal; 1/9/2001; p. B7.) Hold­ing com­pa­nies have been one of the finan­cial cloak­ing vehi­cles through which the afore­men­tioned Bor­mann group has hid­den its own­er­ship of key com­pa­nies around the world, as well as main­tain­ing its con­trol of the Ger­man econ­omy.
