The Coalition to Oppose the Arms Trade has produced a new resource on:

Bush family connections to Fascism

The August 2004 issue of Press for Conversion! exposes many well-documented facts about the Bush family's links to fascism. Information on how to order this 50-page magazine can be found below.

Here are some details about this issue:

“ALL IN THE FAMILY:
The apple does not fall far from the BUSH.”
Issue #54, Press for Conversion! (August 2004)
Published quarterly by the Coalition to Oppose the Arms Trade (COAT)

This issue focuses entirely on the Bush family and, in particular, its well-documented but little-known links to fascism.

For example, the magazine provides detailed information about:
(a) Prescott Bush (U.S. President George Walker Bush’s paternal grandfather, i.e., George Herbert Walker Bush’s father), and
(b) George Herbert Walker (Prescott’s father-in-law. Both George Bush’s are named after this Walker He is George Herbert Walker Bush’s grandfather and George Walker Bush’s great grandfather).

You’ll find several lengthy, well-researched and meticulously-documented articles detailing exactly how the Bush family patriarchs:

(a) Built a vast fortune (through Brown Brothers Harriman of New York City) by facilitating the pre-WWII flow of investments from unscrupulous, fascist-leaning American multi-millionaires into German companies like I.G. Farben (and how they even helped to fund Hitler’s fledgling Nazi party, through Hitler's most powerful industrialist financier, Fritz Thyssen),

(c) profited from the use of slaves at Auschwitz during WWII and in particular Fritz Thyssen’s industrial coal/steel empire that used the free labour at that concentration camp (which was conveniently located near Europe's richest coal deposits as well as it's highest concentration of Jews),

(d) coordinated the laundering of billions in Nazi loot back into the U.S. after WWII through a Nazi front company called Union Banking Corp. (UBC) in New York City which was managed by Prescott Bush. In 1942, under The Trading with the Enemy Act, the Roosevelt government confiscated all of the assets of UBC, and various other Bush-linked corporations. (One and a half million in UBC shares were returned to Bush in 1951.)

(e) used the Dulles brothers (Allen and John Foster), and their considerable influence over the CIA and U.S. State Department, to cover their treasonous tracks, and then

(e) how this Bush family fortune was used as a launching pad to get the two Georges set up in the oil business, from whence they were propelled into politics and eventually the White House.

This issue of the magazine also contains information on an even earlier Bush, one Samuel Bush (i.e., Prescott’s father). Samuel was a wealthy steel industry magnate who was employed by the U.S. government to coordinate and manage U.S. arms production during World War I. He was closely linked with the super-rich Rockefellers (oil) and Harrimans (railways). They became two of the key American families who financed Hitler’s ascent to power. Samuel Bush was also a close friend and colleague of Samuel Pryor, the President of Remington Arms. It was America’s top gun manufacturer and was later bought up by the giant DuPont company, in the early 1930s. It was America’s biggest chemical/weapons/automobile cartel. (Readers of the last issue of Press for Conversion! may recall that testimony General Butler, and others, before the Dickstein-McCormack U.S. House Committee that investigated Wall Street’s 1930s fascist coup plot, found that the DuPonts were prepared to use Remington weapons to supply a paramilitary army for use in the coup attempt.

The current issue of Press for Conversion! also looks at the fact that three generations of the Bush family (including Prescott, George H.W. and George W.) were/are members of Yale University’s elitist secret fraternity called “The Society of Skull and Bones.” (Many Skull and Bones members are among America's wealthiest industrialists, bankers, politicians, media moguls and spies. John Kerry is a member too.)

The magazine also points to some specific examples of how the two George Bush’s have themselves been linked to fascism. For example:
(a) George Bush Sr. (as well as Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan) used a special Republican émigré network of Nazi-collaborators from East Europe to assist their election campaigns (i.e. the "Republican Heritage Groups Council")
(b) There is a close, multi-generational family connection between the Bushes and three other powerful American families that were instrumental in promoting the international Eugenics movement (i.e., Bush links to the Farish, Draper and Gray families).
(c) There are some very unsettling commonalities between various fascist regimes of the past and George W. Bush’s own administration. For example, there's the dubious manner in which Bush came to power after he lost the U.S. presidential election in 2000, as well as the way his administration quickly used the 9/11 tragedy as a pretext not only for two wars but to justify the Patriot Act with its incredibly sweeping attacks upon American civil liberties.
