Seige Heil: The Bush-Rove-Schwarzenegger Nazi Nexus and the Destabilization
of California
by Bob Fitrakis and Harvey Wasserman
George W. Bush's grandfather helped finance the Nazi Party. Karl Rove's
grandfather allegedly helped run the Nazi Party, and helped build the
Birkenau Death Camp. Arnold Schwarzenegger's Austrian father volunteered for
the infamous Nazi SA and became a ranking officer.
Together, they have destabilized California and are on the brink of bringing
it a new Reich. With the Schwarzenegger candidacy they have laid siege to
America's largest state, lining it up for the 2004 election.
The Bush family ties to the Nazi party are well known. In their 1994 Secret
War Against the Jews, Mark Aarons and John Loftus use official US documents
to establish that George Herbert Walker, George W. Bush's maternal
great-grandfather, was one of Hitler's most important early backers. He
funneled money to the rising young fascist through the Union Banking
Corporation.
In 1926, Walker arranged to have his new son-in-law, Prescott Bush---father
of President George Bush I, grandfather of George Bush II---hired as Vice
President at W.A. Harriman and Company. Prescott became a senior partner
when Harriman merged with a British-American investment company to become
Brown Brothers Harriman. In 1934 Prescott Bush joined the Board of Directors
of Union Banking.
The bank helped Hitler rise to power. It also helped him wage war. As late
as July 31, 1941---well after the Nazi invasion of Poland---the U.S.
government froze $3 million in Union Banking assets linked to Fritz Thyssen.
Thyssen was noted in the American press as a "German industrialist and
original backer of Adolph Hitler."
Loftus writes that Thyssen's "American friends in New York City [were]
Prescott Bush and Herbert Walker, the father and father-in-law of a future
President of the United States." That would be the current president's
father, George Herbert Walker Bush, also the former CIA director.
On October 20, 1942, the U.S. government ordered the seizure of Nazi
Germany's banking operations in New York City, which were under the
direction of Prescott Bush. The government seized control of Union Banking
Corporation under the Trading with the Enemy Act. The liquidation yielded a
reported $750,000 apiece for Prescott Bush and George Herbert Walker. The
book, The Splendid Blonde Beast: Money, Law and Genocide, goes into
exhaustive detail on Bush-Harriman Nazi money laundering. More recently,
Michael Kranish covers the same Bush-Nazi relationships in The Rise of the
Bush Family Dynasty published in the Boston Globe. Loftus documents that
"Prescott Bush knowingly served as a money launderer for the Nazis. Remember
that Union Bank's books and accounts were frozen by the U.S. Alien Property
Custodian in 1942 and not released back to the Bush family until 1951."
Often ignored are the Bush family's post-World War II dealings with former
Nazis. John Foster Dulles, who had worked with the Bush family in the
Harriman Company in laundering money for Nazi Germany, was Dwight
Eisenhower's Secretary of State. His brother Allen became CIA director.
As Martin Lee documents in The Beast Reawakens, American intelligence
recruited numerous top Nazis to spy on the Soviets during the Cold War. Many
established connections to the Bush family that had helped finance their
original rise to power. In 1988 Project Censored, in its top award, noted
"how the major mass media ignored, overlooked or undercovered at least ten
critical stories reported in America's alternative press that raised serious
questions about the Republican candidate, George Bush, dating from his
reported role as a CIA 'asset' in 1963 to his presidential campaign's
connection with a network of anti-Semites with Nazi and fascist affiliations
in 1988." Investigative reporter Russ Bellant established ties between the
Republican Party and former Axis Nazis and fascists.
In 2000 and 2001 the Columbus Alive published a series of articles
documenting further links between Bush, Sr. and the Rev. Sun Myung Moon and
his own fascist networks in Japan and Korea.
Karl Rove has parallel ties. The shadowy Rove serves as "Bush's Brain" in
the current White House. He is the political mastermind behind the
California coup, and is now in the headlines for outing Valerie Plame, the
CIA wife of Ambassador Joseph Wilson. A consummate strategist, Rove may have
outed Plame in retaliation for Wilson's failure to back up the Bush claim
that Saddam Hussein was buying nuclear weapons materials in Africa.
According to some published reports, as many as seventy CIA operatives have
been put at risk by Rove's retaliatory strike.
According to Wilson, and to Retired U.S. Navy Lt. Commander Al Martin
(www.almartinraw.com), Rove's grandfather was Karl Heinz Roverer, the
Gauleiter of Oldenburg. Roverer was Reich-Statthalter---Nazi State Party
Chairman---for his region. He was also a partner and senior engineer in the
Roverer Sud-Deutche Ingenieurburo A. G. engineering firm, which built the
Birkenau death camp, at which tens of thousands of Jews, Gypsies, dissidents
and other were slaughtered en masse.
Rove, who has been based in Utah and associated with the Mormon Church, is
widely viewed as the chief engineer of the current Bush administration. He
and Tom DeLay are attempting to force the Texas legislature to redistrict
its Congressional delegations, adding seven sure seats to the Republican
column. By controlling the state houses in New York, Florida, Texas and
California, the GOP would have a lock on the four largest states in the
union, and thus the ability to manipulate vote counts and strip voter
registration rolls in the run-up to the 2004 election.
Rove is a prime behind-the-scenes mover in the Schwarzenegger campaign. On
May 1, 1939, a year after the Nazis took control of Schwarzenegger's native
Austria, his father Gustav, voluntarily joined Hilter's infamous
Strumabteilung (SA), "brown shirt" stormtroopers. This was just six months
after the brown shirts played a key role in the bloody Kristallnacht attacks
on Germany's Jewish community.
The Vienna daily Der Standard noted recently that "Gustav, a high-ranking
Nazi, brought up the bespectacled, rather frail boy with an iron fist and
quite a few slaps in the face." Arnold's father favored a Hitler-style
mustache in photos.
On October 3, ABC News broke the story of Schwarzenegger's 1977 interview in
which he was asked whom he admired. Schwarzenegger replied, "I admire
Hitler, for instance, because he came from being a little man with almost no
formal education, up to power. I admire him for being such a good public
speaker and for what he did with it."
To cover himself, Schwarzenegger has made substantial donations to the Los
Angeles-based Wiesenthal Center, which tracks down ex-Nazis. Arnold has also
renounced Hitler.
But he has not renounced his friendship with fellow Austrian Kurt Waldheim,
the one-time head of the United Nations with known Nazi ties. The book
Arnold: An Unauthorized Biography, documents Arnold toasting Waldheim, who
had participated in Nazi atrocities during World War II, at his wedding to
Maria Shriver. "My friends don't want me to mention Kurt's name, because of
all the recent Nazi stuff and the U.N. controversy," Arnold said. "But I
love him and Maria does to, and so thank you, Kurt."
On May 17, 2001, Schwarzenegger also met with Kenneth "Kenny Boy" Lay of
Enron at the Peninsula Hotel in Los Angeles. Through the utility
deregulation plan signed into law by Pete Wilson, Schwarzenegger's chief
advisor, California was destabilized, bankrupting the state government and
opening the door for Tuesday's recall election. Lay has been George W.
Bush's chief financial backer, and a close associate of Karl Rove's.
According to Bob Woodward's Bush at War, Bush attended a New York Yankees
game soon after the September 11 World Trade Center disaster. He wore a
fireman's jacket. As he threw out the first pitch, the crowd roared.
Thousands of fans stuck out their arms with thumbs up. Karl Rove, sitting in
the box of Yankee owner George Steinbrenner, likened the roar of the crowd
to "a Nazi rally."
He would know.
