Subject: Re: Context of "Pax Americana"

Hi Georges,
i've read your context. You claim that "To keep a long story short, we
shall just mention the French and English peaceniks who carry the
responsibility for WWII. When Nazis were crossing the Rhine bridge to
annex the Rheinland, a single French company would have turned them back
and check further growth of Nazism, but France, dominated by peaceniks
got cold feet and withdrew. England and France dominated by peaceniks
got cold feet. "Peace at any prise" of the peaceniks results usually in
war which otherwise could be avoided or reduced in scope."
When large scale events like these take place, i always ask myself: cui
prodest? What did those peacenicks gain from all this? What did English
and French people gain from WWII? Not much, it seems. Did Germany gain
anyething but a destroyed economy and territory? No, it seems. As usual,
follow the money and you'll find out something revealing.
John Norton Pomeroy Professor of Law at New York University says:
"Three sets of claims are currently being pursued against German
corporations on behalf of victims of
Nazi-era crimes against humanity. One set of claims is on behalf of the
millions of individuals
throughout Europe who were forced to perform involuntary labor for
German industry and the German
government during the Nazi era, and who have never been compensated for
the value of their labor, or
for the appalling conditions of their confinement. A second set of
claims is on behalf of the millions
of Germans and Austrians whose property was confiscated in connection
with the Nazi Aryanization
program, under which virtually all Jewish-owned businesses in Germany
and Austria were involuntarily
transferred to persons of more acceptable racial stock through forced
sales at a fraction of the
business' real value. A third set of claims is on behalf of owners of
insurance policies who failed to
survive the Holocaust, and whose insurance proceeds were retained by
faithless insurance companies that
simply ignored their duty to locate appropriate beneficiaries.
The unjust enrichment flowing to German corporations as a result of its
use of unpaid, involuntary
labor was immense.
The Western Allies decided to postpone consideration of claims by slave
laborers until German industry
was able to recover its economic health, and a comprehensive peace
treaty ending WWII was signed.
The new policy was codified in the London Debt Agreement of 1953, that
explicitly "postponed"
consideration of claims against German corporations arising out of the
Nazi era until sometime in the
indefinite future when a final settlement of the reparations issues
would be achieved pursuant to a
general peace treaty."

Peacenick, huh?
Strangely enough, he says that the same corporations that recent numbers
show to manoeuvre our economy, moving money from the taxpayers' pocket
to their cash, well those same corporations (banks, insurance and
petrochemical) had huge profits from WWII through the slavery of the
nazi victims and their stolen assets.
An example:
"One of the world's biggest banks, UBS of Switzerland, has admitted for
the first time that it exploited Nazi slave labourers during World War
II.The bank has confirmed it owned a cement factory where SS officers
forced at least 400 prisoners from the nearby Auschwitz concentration
camp to work."

Peacenicks, huh?

Shall we talk about the petrochemical-military-bank cartel? The
major source of Hitler's power came from a chemical cartel called I.G.
Farben, (the name is an
abbreviation of the complete name: Interssen Gemeinschaft Farben.).
Well, guess what? Without
the capital supplied by Wall Street, there would have been no I.G.
Farben in the first place, and
almost certainly no Adolf Hitler and World War II. I.G. Farben had its
beginning in 1924 when American banker Charles Dawes arranged a series
of foreign
loans totalling $800 million to consolidate gigantic chemical and steel
combinations into cartels,
one of which was I.G. Farben. Professor Can-oil Quigley terms the Dawes
Plan: "largely a J.P. Morgan
production." Three Wall Street houses, Dillon, Read & Co.; Harris,
Forbes & Co.; and National City handled
three-quarters of the loans used to create these cartels.

But the real importance of I.G. to the war efforts of Adolf Hitler came
in the utilization of the
process known as hydrogenation, the production of gasoline from coal,
created by the I.G. Farben
chemical cartel.

In August, 1927, Standard Oil agreed to embark on a cooperative program
of research and development of
the hydrogenation process to refine the oil necessary for Germany to
prepare for World War II.

And finally, on November 9, 1929, these two giant companies signed a
cartel agreement that had two
objectives:

First, the cartel agreement granted Standard Oil one-half of all
rights to the hydrogenation
process in all countries of the world except Germany; and

Secondly, the two agreed: "... never to compete with each other in
the fields of chemistry and
petroleum products. In the future, if Standard Oil wished to enter the
broad field of industrial
chemicals or drugs, it would do so only as a partner of Farben.

Farben, in turn, agreed never to enter the field of petroleum except
as a joint venture with
Standard."

Now how do you explain the fact that the IG Farben plants were not the
subject of Allied bombing raids? In Dresden for the useless murdering of
civilians the Allies had many powerful bombs, but not for the IG Farben
plants.
Peacenicks, huh?

It was in 1939, during the year that Germany started the war with its
invasions of Austria and Poland,
that Standard Oil of New Jersey loaned I.G. Farben $20 million of
high-grade aviation gasoline.

The two largest German tank manufacturers were Opel, a wholly owned
subsidiary of General Motors and
controlled by the J.P. Morgan firm, and the Ford subsidiary of the Ford
Motor Company.

In addition, Alcoa and Dow Chemical transferred technology to the
Germans, as did Bendix Aviation, in
which the J.P. Morgan-controlled General Motors had a major stock
interest, which supplied data on
automatic pilots, aircraft instruments and aircraft and diesel engine
starters.

For instance, even after Germany invaded Austria in March, 1938, the
Ethyl Gasoline Corporation, fifty
percent owned by General Motors and fifty percent by Standard Oil, was
asked by I.G. Farben to build
tetra-ethyl plants in Germany, with the full support of the U.S.
Department of War which expressed no
objection to the transactions.

And in August, 1938, I.G. Farben "borrowed" 500 tons of tetra-ethyl
lead, the gas additive, from
Standard Oil.

Peacenicks, huh?

Regarding the Rockefeller connection, Hermann Schmitz, president of
Bayer A.G and I.G. Farben during
WWII, who also largely directed the Deutsche Bank, held a substantial
amount of stock in Standard Oil
of New Jersey.(3) G. Edward Griffin's investigation into the cancer
industry found that the cartel
agreement signed between Standard and I.G. on 9 November 1929 involved
the exchange of some of I.G.'s
patent rights over the coal-hydrogenation process for $30,000,000 of
Standard's stock. The Rockefeller
group concealed it's I.G. holdings in false fronts and dummy accounts
and when I.G.'s vast holdings
were finally sold in 1962, it was the dominant force in carrying out the
transaction.(4) Paul Warburg,
another founding member of the Wall St. banking cartel, was also a
director of several I.G.
subsidiaries.(5)

Shall we talk about Switzerland "neutrality" then?

If you think that Switzerland was a paradise because of
the Swiss citizenry then you are simply wrong. Switzerland was a
necessary "neutral" state FOR THE AXIS. See the Reichsbank and the
Swiss banks recently investigated for litterally stealing the German
Jews' gold and assets. The Bergier Commission (a panel of historians)
concluded that Switzerland "declined to help people in mortal danger."
Many of those turned away at the border were handed over directly to
the Nazis, making Switzerland an accomplice in the Holocaust. Yet
Serge Klarsfeld, who helped track down the war criminal Klaus Barbie,
said the Bergier Report, commissioned by the Swiss Government, vastly
over-estimated the number of Jews barred from the country. The Volcker
Commission has identified nearly 54,000 dormant accounts in Swiss
banks that may have belonged to victims of the Nazis. ...
Before World War II, Switzerland had been a
poor country. Thanks to the Third Reich, Switzerland emerged from the
war as the second-richest country in the world. As Tom Bower's
masterly chronicle, "Nazi Gold," makes clear the war would most likely
have ended a full year earlier had it not been for the financial
intervention of Swiss bankers.

Cui prodest? Peacenicks?

Ok, i've copied a few articles i've recently read but if you still have
doubts you can see these:

"I am afraid that the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that the
banks can and do create money
... And they who control the credit of the nation direct the policy of
Governments and hold in the
hollow of their hands the destiny of the people"
- Reginald McKenna speaking to stockholders as Chairman of the Board of
Midland Bank in January 1924.

Now maybe this is the most interesting point: how can we discuss about
DD without discussing about the way money is controlling our destiny?
Strangely the US banks had no money to feed the hungry US citizens
during the Great Depression, but became suddenly prosperous when had to
lend money to buy bombs.
As you can see my Pax Americana context greatly differs from yours.

Best regards

Giorgio
