[QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by TheAmericanPatriot: [qb] That is all crap sudaniya. You have some good views on american history but sometimes you come up with this looney tunes stuff that is way out there. the United states rebuilt the german economy during the 1920's under the Weimar republic. Hitler was bank rolled by VanPapen and the German aristocrats who had the money but lacked the popular support the nazi's had. That we did business with Germany in the 1930's does not mean we advocated war or supported Nazi philosophy. We also did business with Stalin and the japanese. [/qb][/QUOTE]You seem to believe the financial and technical assistance to Hitler as "accidental" or due to the "short-sightedness" of American businessmen, the evidence strongly suggests some degree of premeditation on the part of these American financiers. Similar and unacceptable pleas of "accident" were made on behalf of American financiers and industrialists in the parallel example of building the military power of the Soviet Union from 1917 onwards. Yet these American capitalists were willing to finance and subsidize the Soviet Union while the Vietnam war was underway, knowing that the Soviets were supplying the other side. You need to refute evidence of American industrial support for Hitler's war machine. In two gears Germany will be manufacturing oil and gas enough out of soft coal for a long war. The Standard Oil of New York is furnishing millions of dollars to help. (Report from the Commercial Attaché, U.S. Embassy in Berlin, Germany, January 1933, to State Department in Washington, D.C,) The Standard Oil group ( now EXXON MOBILE) of companies, in which the Rockefeller family owned a one-quarter (and controlling) interest,1 was of critical assistance in helping Nazi Germany prepare for World War II. This assistance in military preparation came about because Germany's relatively insignificant supplies of crude petroleum were quite insufficient for modern mechanized warfare; in 1934 for instance about 85 percent of German finished petroleum products were imported. The solution adopted by Nazi Germany was to manufacture synthetic gasoline from its plentiful domestic coal supplies. It was the hydrogenation process of producing synthetic gasoline and iso-octane properties in gasoline that enabled Germany to go to war in 1940 — and this hydrogenation process was developed and financed by the Standard Oil laboratories in the United States in partnership with I.G. Farben. "TheAmericanPatriot", I'm NOT at all interested in your signature intransigence: Do you refute: -Standard oil assistance to Hitler's war machine, before and during the war? -Chase Manhatten Bank's financial assistance to Hitler? -General Electric's assistance to Hitler? -Henry Ford's financing of Hitler, before and during the war? -Wall Street's extensive assistance to Hitler? -That one hundred American corporations were involved in the construction of Germany's war machine? The contribution made by American capitalism to German war preparations before 1940 can only be described as phenomenal. It was certainly crucial to German military capabilities. For instance, in 1934 Germany produced domestically only 300,000 tons of natural petroleum products and less than 800,000 tons of synthetic gasoline; the balance was imported. Yet, ten years later in World War II, after transfer of the Standard Oil of New Jersey hydrogenation patents and technology to I. G. Farben (used to produce synthetic gasoline from coal), Germany produced about 6 1/2 million tons of oil — of which 85 percent (5 1/2 million tons) was synthetic oil using the Standard Oil hydrogenation process. Moreover, the control of synthetic oil output in Germany was held by the I. G. Farben subsidiary, Braunkohle-Benzin A. G., and this Farben cartel itself was created in 1926 with Wall Street financial assistance. [/QB][/QUOTE]
