Standing on the Dead

"What luck for the rulers that men do not think."
--Adolf Hitler
In October of 1942, under the Trading With the Enemy
Act, the U.S. government halted operations at New
York's Union Banking Corporation. A bank official was
charged with "Running Nazi front groups in the Untied
States."
His name: Prescott Bush.
Prescott Bush, father of future U.S President George
Herbert Walker Bush and grandfather of George W. Bush,
had been hard at work on behalf of his Nazi partners.
In flagrant violation of U.S. law, Prescott Bush had
worked tirelessly to launder money, procure raw
materials, arrange transportation and provide guidance
for the Nazi war effort and the German army he had
helped to build.
In April of 2002, George W. Bush -- standing literally
on the bones of the men who fell at Normandy beachhead
in mortal combat with that very same Nazi army --
delivered his Memorial Day address. He said, in part,
"This is a day our country has set apart to remember
what was gained in our wars, and all that was lost."
Let us remember.
As the German army came crashing into Poland,
spreading death and destruction in its path, Prescott
Bush continued aiding the Nazis.
As German tanks rolled through the Ardennes Forest and
into Paris, Prescott Bush continued aiding the Nazis.
As Allied forces fighting to defend France were forced
literally into the sea at Dunkirk by the German Army,
Prescott Bush continued aiding the Nazis.
As German war planes rained bombs down on London,
killing 50 thousand English men, women and children,
Prescott Bush continued aiding the Nazis.
As millions died at the hands of the most ruthless and
violent organization the world has ever known,
Prescott Bush continued aiding them.
And of course, as Hitler and the Nazis planned and
carried out the extermination of Europe's Jews,
Prescott Bush was an eager and active partner.
When did Bush stop? When we made him stop.
In this case, George W. Bush won't have to worry about
the US Government shutting him down. That's been taken
care of -- he is the US Government.
As debate rages back and forth across the Atlantic
over the morality and acceptability of this assault
against Iraq, it is interesting to note the German
position.
It was Germany who bought most completely into the war
lie during the past century. It was the German people
who, with their faith in country and leadership, and
even their loyalty to the Fatherland, made possible
the greatest nightmare the world has ever known. It is
those same German people who stand today before Europe
and the world in unflinching opposition to this latest
world conquering force.
How well do the German people know George W. Bush?
Better than they want to.
