Senate Passes Bill Allowing More Time to Declassify Nazi War Crime Papers
I wonder why?

"http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGB8UAIT95E.html
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate agreed Wednesday to allow more time for the declassification of government documents about Nazi war criminals, following a recent agreement by the CIA to turn over papers about agents it hired with Nazi ties.

The law also led to new information about how the German government and several U.S. and European banks worked together to funnel back to Germany money that had been illegally taken from German Jews. "

Who is da US banks??? Who were these people?

This is another HUGE story..if the prescott bush reports could ever receive the attention that they deserve..Oh la la!

1. So very true
It doesn't surprise me that the people in the Neo-Con movement have direct ties to the NAZI regime of Hitler. But time will tell us what we should know.

5. The NeoCons were never liberals.
They tried to take over the Democratic party in the early 70's and failed.

They were authoritarian socialists (Stalinist), and when that wouldn't fly they changed to authoritarian corparatists (fascists).

Liberal? Not hardly.

2. Money seized from Jews...
... likely means Swiss and French Banks, but the mention of US banks does make it more interesting--wonder if Union Bank is among them. Brown Brothers, Harriman would be another candidate.

But, this is also very embarrassing to the CIA--there are plenty of people in this country with very long memories, and the OSS/CIA aiding their tormenters for reasons of realpolitik won't sit well with them.

4. Important story in many ways..
what is real prescott bush truth..??
Kevin Philiips lays out outline of family bush with their long history of war profiteering,wall st and intell connections..
His book 'American Dynasty" shoud be required reading for all concerned citizens.
family bush has been the BIGGEST benefactor of the US taxpayers in history..It is a family that NEVER produced a lawyer,doctor,scientist,professor...
It is literally built on the war machine and the industrial/military complex...which is now wall st. centered..

7. Well, the earliest Bush Phillips mentions...

8. It's Been 60 years already!
How much time do they need? Everyone who was involved is dead as well as most of their children.

There must be some huge corporate scandals, worse than the Swiss banks and insurance defrauding survivors. Otherwise this is ridiculous.

9. IF and its a big word..
Prescott Bush is involved with one of these US bankers then its a huge story..He was ordered by US Congress in 1942 to stop war trading with Germany..Its all in National archives..
However scandals seem to bounce off occupant bush...

13. Let's just say PRESCOTT BUSH
You're not a premature anti-fascist, are you? Communism is baaaad. Having any controls on the thuggery of entrenched massive wealth is wicked. Your betters are very disappointed in you.

Nazism is the joyous representation of corporatism; the jew-hating, white supremacist stuff just clouds the true issue.
