"What my cabinet shows is that I am not afraid to surround myself with strong
and competent people...a good executive is one that understands how to
recruit people and how to delegate authority and responsibility."-GW Bush
1/2/2001 As promised GW Bush has recruited competent and experienced
advisors. Despite their seeming diversity however they have a common
denominator. The America they reflect is the oil, pharmaceutical, armament,
Wall Street and eugenics interests long associated with the Bush family.
Seventy years ago a similar configuration of oil, pharmaceutical, chemical,
military supply and eugenics interests were organized by Wall Street into IG
Farben/Standard Oil-Hitler's industrial powerhouse. To grasp the real
significance of what GW Bush's cabinet has been brought together to
accomplish it is essential to understand the history of IG Farben, its
relationship with American corporations and how together they applied modern
technology to the task of eugenics or scientific racism. According to
former US Justice Dept. Nazi War Crimes prosecutor John Loftus-who is today
the director of the Florida Holocaust Museum-"The Bush family fortune came
from the Third Reich,"-Sarasota Herald-Tribune 11/11/2000
http://www.newscoast.com/headlinesstory2.cfm?ID=35115 Along with the
Rockefellers (Standard Oil, Chase Manhattan Bank), Mellons (Gulf Oil, Alcoa
Aluminum), DuPonts (DuPont Chemicals), General Motors and Henry Ford, banks
and shipping companies operated by the Bush family were crucial players in
setting up the industrial power behind the Third Reich. These companies
poured hundreds of millions of dollars into IG Farben and provided it with
technology for tactically-essential synthetic materials-while withholding the
same materials and patents from the US government. The Rockefeller family,
long aligned with the Bushes, owned Standard Oil. Through a stock transfer
they became half owners of Germany's IG Farben with Farben likewise owning
almost half of Standard Oil. According to the Encyclopedia Brittanica, IG
Farben built and operated more than 40 concentration camps in Nazi-occupied
Europe, including Auschwitz. At their slave labor/factory/death camps
chemicals, weapons, drugs, synthetic fuels and other materials vital to the
Nazi war effort were manufactured. In addition, eugenicists like Dr. Josef
Mengele used the human subjects in the camps for experiments the data from
which are today the basis for many drugs marketed by the pharmaceutical
industry-not too surprising in light of the fact that more Americans die from
prescription drugs than from any other single cause. At the end of WWII the
allies split up IG Farben into companies that are now the top pharmaceutical
concerns on earth among them Bayer, Hoescht, BASF, the Agfa-Gevaert Group and
Cassella AG. Many of Wall Streets favorite pharmaceutical/chemical companies
behind the proliferation of genetically-altered foods, transgenic animals,
human cloning, dangerous psychiatric drugs, deadly vaccines and
pesticides-such as Aventis-are subsidiaries of these same companies. War
provides the necessary medium in which this witches brew of oil, eugenics,
pharmaceuticals, munitions and Wall Street investing can reach maximum
growth. Likewise, war is also the essential frame of reference for the newly
formed GW Bush administration. The high-profile minorities who are working
as Bush advisors have been hand-picked, funded and carefully cultivated by
right wing think tanks and conservative foundations with a white supremacist
philosophy in order to provide cover for their anti-poor, anti-minority
eugenics agenda. For those who scoff at the validity of comparing the Bush
administration to the Nazis and IG Farben please note the following. I'm not
suggesting that GW Bush is a literal Nazi nor am I implying that everyone who
is an oil or pharmaceutical company executive automatically deserves to be
linked to IG Farben. That the Bush wealth and prominence in American politics
is derived from Prescott Bush and George Herbert Walker's support of Hitler
is a historical fact. If the connection ended in 1945 with the destruction of
Nazi Germany that might have been the end of it-it didn't end there however.
Not only has the eugenics agenda continued but many of the top Nazis who
were advancing it during WWII were brought to the US after the war and
installed in academia, the media, government research institutions and the
CIA-by the same American officials who worked with the Bush family to build
up Nazi Germany in the first place. Their ideas formed the basis for much of
the agenda promoted by this nation's most influential right-wing think
tanks-the same think tanks that are the sponsors of GW Bush and virtually
every one of his appointees. Why is it significant that many of Bush's
staff and cabinet appointees are former pharmaceutical company executives as
was GW's father, former President George Bush? These corporations are
voraciously patenting the earth's life forms-its plants, bacteria, viruses,
animals and even human genetic lineages. Reproduction of plants, animals and
humans may eventually be totally controlled by these corporations,
genetically-altered, recombined into chimeric life forms and exploited for
profit. The Human Genome Project, as it admits on the very first page of
its website http://vector.cshl.org/eugenics.html <, is derived from the
eugenics movement in the US and Nazi Germany during the first half of the
20th century. The Eugenics Records Office at Cold Springs Harbor NY-where
American eugenics started-was built by the Harriman family-the Bushes' Wall
Street business partners in funding Hitler. This is the new frontier of
colonialism in the 21st century-the total domination and exploitation of the
earth and everything on it-the New World Order both former President Bush and
Adolf Hitler so frequently called for. While my writings focus on the
Republican aspect of this agenda there is no question that many Democrats are
participants and that none of these things could be accomplished without the
full "bipartisan support" we hear about each and every day. Some of the men
and women who do the thinking for GW Bush: -Vice President, Dick Cheney,
arguably the real President-elect, was one of papa Bush's top advisors. His
company, Haliburton, is one of the nation's largest recipients of government
contracts, supplying military equipment, oil services and infrastructure.
Cheney epitomizes corporate-welfare and like most of Bush's appointees is a
multi-millionaire who will receive huge financial benefits from the
administrations' policies and any wars it manages to get the US into.
-Secretary of Labor Linda Chavez-who is outspokenly anti-union-was a research
fellow at the CIA's Manhattan Institute during 1993 and 1994 and has received
almost $200,000 in grants from the John M. Olin Foundation, a notorious
right-wing fund derived from a family business in munitions and chemicals
with roots in white supremacy. Despite her Hispanic surname she is an
outspoken advocate for the English First Movement. Chavez is president of the
Center for Equal Opportunity, based in Washington, D.C. an organization
dedicated to eliminating affirmative action. On their website Chavez quotes
Charles Murray, author of The Bell Curve, a classic of modern racial eugenics
which has become the "bible" for the anti-welfare anti-affirmative action
movement. -Secretary of Health and Human Services, Wisconsin Gov. Tommy G.
Thompson, is known for his controversial welfare reforms-based in large part
on two books by Charles Murray, Losing Ground and The Bell Curve. Murray was
a consultant for the Wisconsin welfare reform program. Thompson's protege,
Jason Turner, was later brought to NYC where he has run Mayor Giuliani's
characteristically brutal welfare elimination program. Turner became
notorious for quoting the motto on the gates over Auschwitz- "Arbeit Macht
Frei-work shall make you free". He is frequently a guest with Charles Murray
in panel discussions at the CIA's Manhattan Institute and other
Bush-connected think tanks. Murray wrote the Bell Curve while a fellow at the
Manhattan Institute where his pseudo-scientific research on the genetic
inferiority of African Americans was primarily financed by the Pioneer Fund.
Since 1937 the Pioneer Fund has promoted eugenics and the ideology of white
racial superiority. -Secretary of Energy, Spencer Abraham, who served as
Vice President Dan Quale's chief of staff, spent years trying to abolish the
very agency he will now head. His legislative positions include being against
higher fuel efficiency standards for cars, being against government
regulations for industry and support for opening up national parklands to oil
drilling. He is a recipient of oil company contributions totaling more than
$221,000 according to the NY Times. The American Petroleum Institute has said
it looks forward to working with Abraham. Abraham helped found the
conservative law group the Federalist Society which specializes in
eliminating social programs, affirmative action, welfare and bilingual
education. The society is funded by the John M. Olin Foundation, the Sarah
Scaife Foundation, the Bradley Foundation, and the Lilly Endowment-America's
leading far right think tanks. Among its most prominent members are Supreme
Court Justices Scalia and Thomas whose questionable election ruling gave Bush
his illegitimate Presidency. Spokespersons for the Federalist Society include
Bell Curve author Charles Murray, Manhattan Institute fellow Abigail
Thernstrom, and Dinesh dâ*Souza of the American Enterprise Institute.
-Secretary of Education, Rod Paige, the latest African American Bush
appointee, is a conservative public schools administrator in Texas and
decades-long crony of the Bush family who supports vouchers, tying teacher
pay directly to test scores and school privatization-all of which will
negatively impact African American students by destroying public education.
-Secretary of Defense, Donald H. Rumsfeld was Secretary of Defense under
President Ford. Rumsfeld like Powell, Cheney, Rice and numerous other Bush
administration officials is a salesman for the Star Wars Missile Defense
Shield. He served four terms in the US Congress where he voted against
Medicare, anti-poverty programs like Headstart, food stamps and various
healthcare proposals. Rumsfeld, who formerly headed Searle Pharmaceuticals,
is part of the drug company axis within the Bush administration. Former
President Bush was director of Eli Lilly, OMB head Mitchell E. Daniels was
also senior executive of Eli Lilly and AG John Ashcroft is known as a
lobbyist for pharmaceutical companies. Dr. Gail R. Wilensky-one of numerous
John M. Olin grant recipients attached to Bush-is the principal author of
GW's Medicare plan. Wilensky serves on the boards of eight health care
companies in which she owns more than $12 million in stock. -Secretary of
State, Colin Powell is a lifelong operative of the CIA/military-industrial
complex. While working for the Pentagon he earned his present stature by
helping cover up the Mai Lai massacre, the contra/arms-cocaine deal and Gulf
War Syndrome. Powell's reputation as a hero derives from presiding over a war
in which US troops were used as guinea pigs for drug companies' experimental
vaccines so that they could "safely" fight George Bush's friend Sadamn
Hussein-who had been supplied with chemical and biological weapons by the
Bush administration. Unlike most of GW's appointees of color, Powell proudly
admits he owes his career to affirmative action yet willingly joins an
administration that considers ending affirmative action a top priority.
-Secretary of the Treasury, Paul H. O'Neill is the chairman of Alcoa
Aluminum, one of the world's worst polluters and a leading corporate
supporter of Nazi Germany and eugenics. O'Neill owns 1.6 million shares of
Alcoa, worth more than $50 million. During WWII Alcoa negotiated a deal with
the Nazis and IG Farben to supply Germany's war machine rather than the US
military with aluminum. "If America loses this war," said then Secretary of
the Interior Harold Ickes on June 26, 1941, "it can thank the Aluminum
Corporation of America [ALCOA]." Alcoa produces hundreds of millions of tons
of fluoride. This highly toxic waste byproduct of aluminum has been linked in
thousands of medical studies to cancer and other degenerative diseases. In
the 1950's Alcoa arranged to have it added to our nation's drinking water
rather than disposed of as toxic waste. During WWII in IG Farben's slave
labor camps Nazis scientists discovered that by adding fluoride to the
drinking water they could make prisoners more submissive to authority.
.O'Neill is a fellow at the RAND Corporation and American Enterprise
Institute, two more extreme right-wing think tanks. -Attorney General John
Ashcroft is a self-styled moral crusader as strongly anti-abortion as he is
enthusiastic about the death penalty. Last year, Ashcroft received an
honorary degree from Bob Jones University. He is closely aligned with the
Christian Coalition, Pat Robertson and Southern heritage groups which admire
the Confederacy and defend the institution of slavery as practiced in the
South. He is known among lobbyists as an advocate for drug companies and the
automotive industry and for preventing consumers from suing HMO's. The furor
over Ashcroft's anti-abortion views is being played out exactly as planned by
Team Bush. Not only will the Bush administration never make abortions
illegal, if anything the eugenics agenda that underlies the Bush family
history guarantees that abortion, sterilization and other technologies
intended to limit population-including war, chemical exposure, pesticide use
in urban areas, genetically-altered foods and vaccines-will proceed at an
unprecedented level. The Bush gang are delighted to see Democrats, women's
rights advocates and the left focusing on Ashcroft while virtually ignoring
the other Bush appointees. -Secretary of Commerce Donald L. Evans is an
insider in the Texas "oil mafia" and is GW's closest friend and confidant.
He's also friend, confidant and contributor to one of America's biggest
recipients of government contacts, Halliburton's Dick Cheney. -Office of
Management and Budget Director Mitchell E. Daniels Jr., was senior executive
of the Eli Lilly drug company and was previously the president of the
arch-conservative Hudson Institute. Daniels, who advocates strict enforcement
of laws against casual drug users, was busted for drugs in 1970. Bush and
