Did you know... and aren't you glad you asked?

And I quote "The American Axis" by Max Wallace : " Edsel Ford violated federal law by continuing to do business with the Nazis after Pearl Harbor, he was not alone. One of the partners of the Union Banking Corporation, the man who oversaw all investments on behalf of the Nazi-affiliated owners, happened to be Prescott Bush, grandfather of the American president George W. Bush. Through the connections of his father-in-law, Bert Walker (George W.'s material great-grandfather), who has been described by a U.S. Justice Department investigator as "one of Hitler's most powerful financial supports in the United States. Prescott Bush specialized in managing the investments for a number of German companies, many with extensive Nazi ties. These included the North American operations of another Nazi front, the Hamburg-Amerika LIne, which was directly linked to a network set up by IG Farben to smuggle agents, money and propaganda for Germany. According to a 1934 Congressional investigation, the Hamburg-Amerika line 'subsidized a wide range of pro-Nazi propaganda efforts both in Germany and the United States. Both Walker and Bush were directors of a holding company, the Harriman Fifteen Corporation, that directly financed the line.

"According to former United States Justice Department Nazi war crimes investigator John Loftus, who has investigated the Bush Family's considerable ties to the Third Reich, Prescott Bush's investment prowess helped make millions of dollars for various Nazi-front holding companies, and he was well paid for his efforts. 'The Bush family fortune that helped put two members of family in the White House can be traced directly to the Third Reich,' says Loftus, who is currently president of the Florida Holocaust museum.

Loftus discovered a disturbing trail connecting the Bush family's money laundering efforts to the Thyssens, a powerful German family, and their role in building up the Nazi war machine."

Amazing!
