FTR-273 "B" as in
"Bush," "B" as in "Bormann" (Two 30-minute segments)
(Sources are noted in parentheses.)
1.
Supplementing
a line of inquiry developed in past programs, this broadcast sets forth more
circumstantial evidence that the Bush family may be the American point element
of the remarkable and deadly Bormann organization. (For more on this
hypothesis, see also: FTR #'s 186, 194,
272. The Bormann organization is discussed at greater length below.)
2.
A
clandestine powerhouse, the Bormann group (in Mr. Emory's opinion) will prove
to be the decisive element in human affairs, barring a sea-change in the
political currents. (For more on this hypothesis, see also: FTR #'s 186, 194, 272. The Bormann
organization is discussed at greater length below.)

Recently,
former Justice Department official John Loftus disclosed that the Bush family
fortune came from the 1951 liquidation of the Union Banking Corporation.

Excerpting
a June, 1992 addendum to Miscellaneous
Archive Show M-11, the program illustrates that the Union Banking
Corporation was confiscated by the Alien Property Custodian in World War II.

This
firm was a front for the Thyssen interests before, and during, the war. (Idem.)
(Fritz Thyssen was one of Hitler's earliest and most prominent financial
backers.)
6.
Much
of the first side of the broadcast consists of an excerpt of FTR-186. The discussion further
develops the profound involvement of George Herbert Walker (W's great
grandfather) and his son-in-law, Prescott Bush, (W's grandfather) in the
financing of the German industrial concerns that backed Hitler. (The Secret War Against the Jews: How Western
Espionage Betrayed the Jewish People, by John Loftus and Mark Aarons; St.
Martin's Press; copyright 1994; ISBN 0-312-11057-X pp. 358-61.)
7.
In
particular, the excerpt from FTR-186
further underscores the Walker-Bush involvement with the Union Banking
Corporation. (Idem.)
8.
The
broadcast also focuses heavily on the Hamburg-Amerika Line, one of the
Bush-connected companies that played a key role in Nazi espionage before, and
during, World War II. (Idem.)
9.
The
company helped to finance the operations of the SS. (Martin Bormann: Nazi in Exile; by Paul Manning; copyright 1981;
Lyle Stuart [hardcover]; ISBN 0-8184-0309-8; p. 43.)
10.
Hamburg-Amerika
Line was also deeply involved with the Bormann flight capital organization. The
economic and political component of a Third Reich gone underground, the Bormann
organization is also discussed in: FTR
#'s 87, 90, 99, 102, 120, 122, 123, 125, 127, 134, 145, 152, 155, 158, 177,
179, 180, 187, 189, 193, 194, 195, 215, 216, 218, 219, 224, 226, 232, 234, 235,
238, 239, 240, 241, 242, 245, 248, 250, 251, 261, 272.) When considering
German corporations, it is important to remember that they are controlled by
the Bormann Organization. This institution has perpetuated its power in an
effective, clandestine, and deadly, Mafia-like fashion in the years since World
War II. American corporations are driven by the profit motive, and coordinate
policies on labor, environmental, marketing and taxation issues--they are
otherwise relatively apolitical. In contrast, German corporations (under
control of the Bormann group) function as coordinated elements of international
economic and political control, not unlike the divisions in an army. Although
they, too, strive to make money, profit is subordinate to the goal of German
national hegemony.

The

Further
underscoring the strong connections between Walker, Prescott Bush Sr. and the
Thyssen interests, the program illustrates that the Walker-Thyssen relationship
began in 1924. (The Secret War Against
the Jews; p. 358.)
14.
The
close relationship between Fritz Thyssen and Adolf Hitler began at about the
same time. (Martin Bormann: Nazi in Exile;
by Paul Manning; pp. 242-3.)
15.
The
very close relationship between the Thyssen family and Martin Bormann is
underscored by the fact that Bormann utilizes the Thyssen family's Latin
American estates as homes and bases of operation. (Ibid., p. 292.)
16.
The
Thyssen estates also serve as refuge for Bormann's son, Adolf Martin, and
daughter Neumi. (Ibid.; p. 290.) (FTR-155
presents information that Adolf Martin and Neumi allegedly head the Bormann
organization today.)
17.
Carrying
on "an old family tradition," Thyssen's heir, Count Frederico
Zichy-Thyssen manages the Thyssen heavy industrial firm, a critical component
of the Bormann group. (Ibid.; pp. 256-7.)

One
of Dubya’s last cabinet appointments was Robert Zoellick, who was appointed
U.S. Trade Representative shortly before Bush took office. ("Bush’s Trade
Chief Rated as Smart, Smooth Negotiator" by Jonathan Petersen; Los Angeles Times;

excerpt from FTR-186 highlights
Zoellick’s role as a key foreign policy adviser to Bush during the campaign.

Underscoring
the probability of strong ties between the Bush camp and the Bormann group, the
program sets forth Zoellick's participation in the German Marshall Fund of the

Set
up as a P.R. front for German heavy industry, the German Marshall fund is, in
effect, a Bormann front group. (Martin
Bormann: Nazi in Exile; by Paul Manning; pp. 261-262.)

Zoellick
was one of the principal figures in the launching of NAFTA, as well as the
Bush/Baker State Department point man in the negotiations that led to the
reunification of

Handling
German reunification, Zoellick must have worked closely with Gunther Strassmeier,
Helmut Kohl's former chief of staff and the architect of German reunification.
Strassmeier is the father of Andreas Strassmeier, a key figure in the

Zoellick
also helped to midwife the World Trade Organization. ("Robert Bruce

Times;

A
James Baker protege, Zoellick worked with Baker in the
26.
Not
surprisingly in light of the Bormann group's decisive influence in the European
economy, Zoellick's ascenscion is viewed with favor by the EU. ("Zoellick

and Stephen Fidler; Financial Times;

The
program concludes with speculative information supplementing the discussion in FTR-272. One of the principal Thyssen
heirs (and Bormann associates) is Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza. His financial
operations are based in the

In
the discussion of ASM Lithography (see FTR-272),
the broadcast highlights the fact that the company's full name is “ASM
