An important step on the road to world monopoly was the most far-reaching
corporation invented by the
Rothschilds. This was the international drug and chemical cartel, I. G.
Farben. Called "a state within a state" , it was created in 1925 as
Interessen Gemeinschaft Farbeinindustrie Aktien Gesellschaft, usually known
simply as I. G. Farben, which simply meant "The Cartel". It had originated
in 1904, when the six major chemical companies in Germany began
negotiations to form the ultimate cartel, merging Badische Anilin, Bayer,
Agfa, Hoechst, Weiler-ter-Meer, and Greisheim-Electron. The guiding
spirit,as well as the financing, came from the Rothschilds, who were
represented by their German banker, Max Warburg of M. M. Warburg Company,
Hamburg. He later headed the German Secret Service during World War I and
was personal financial advisor to the Kaiser.

>From "The Rockefeller Syndicate" http://www.afn.org/~govern/rockfeller.html :
In 1930,Standard Oil announced that it had purchased an alcohol monopoly in
Germany, a deal which had been set up by I.G. Farben. After Hitler came to
power,John D. Rockefeller assigned his personal press agent, Ivy Lee, to
Hitler to serve as a fulltime advisor on the rearmament of Germany, a
necessary step for seting up World War II. Standard Oil then built large
refineries in Germany for the Nazis and continued to supply them with oil
during World War II. In the 1930's, Standard Oil was receiving in payment
from Germany large shipments of musical instruments and ships which had
been built in German yards.
The dreaded Gestapo, the Nazi police force, was actually built from the
worldwide intelligence network which I.G. Farben had maintained since its
inception. Herman Schmitz, who had succeeded Carl Bosch as head of I.G.,
had been personal advisor to Chancellor Breuning; when Hitler took over,
Schmitz then became his most trusted secret counselor.
So well concealed was the association that the press had orders never to
photograph them together. Schmitz was named an honorary member of the
Reichstag, while his assistant, Carl Krauch, became Goering's principal
advisor in carrying out the Nazis' Four Year Plan. A business associate
Richard Krebs, later testified before the House Un-American Activities
Committee, "The I.G. Farbinidustrie, I know from personal experience, was
already, in 1934, completely in the hands of the Gestapo." This was a
misstatement; the I.G. Farben had merely allied itself WITH the Gestapo.
