The corporations warning today against Britons leaving the EU were among the leading Nazi supporters before and during the second world war.
In recent months, as the unpopularity of the disastrous European Union and the even more catastrophic failure of the Euro threaten the Europe of corporate privilege and democratic destruction (which big multi nationals have spent decades building) a number of companies have gone public with their warnings against the British leaving the EU.
Germany’s Siemens and Deutsche Bank, America’s General Electric and the Swedish Wallenberg Bank have all in recent months defended the wonderful “Europe” which has produced 25 million unemployed, social collapse, mass migrations and a big fall in the continent’s share in world trade. And when the British CBI “helps” David Cameron negotiate better terms from the EU before the planned “in-out” referendum their aims are purely commercial with no concern for democracy or parliamentary power or even the existence of the United Kingdom. This is not surprising since those same companies profited enormously under Adolf Hitler’s Europe and have unprecedented power and influence in the European Union today.
SIEMENS
This German corporation is involved closely with the German security services and was favoured by the stupid British Government (Philip Hammond as Transport Secretary, now Foreign Secretary!) for UK transport infrastructure over British based companies. But it had been exposed for massive corporate corruption in many parts of the world and been fined hundreds of millions of Dollars.
Siemens was a major contractor for the Nazi regime, tripling its turnover and capital between 1933 (when the Nazis came to power) and 1938. It was one of the select Nazi corporations assembled in August 1944 at the “Red House” meeting in Strasbourg where leading SS officials told the leaders of these firms that they should
- finance the underground Nazi party
- extend German interests abroad
- export capital
Siemens was a member of the “Freundeskreis des Reichsfuehrers SS” (Friends of the SS) financing and working closely with them in all important Hitlerian projects. The Auschwitz commander Rudolf Hos in his evidence at the Nuremberg trials named the companies which had benefited from the exploitation of slave labour sent from concentrations camps – among them Siemens.
Today Siemens is an enthusiastic supporter of the European Union and warns the British not to leave!
DEUTSCHE BANK
Recently condemned for rigging financial markets and its management condemned for covering up the scandal Deutsche Bank was forced some years ago to confirm that it knowingly purchased gold taken from the victims of Nazi concentration camps. Deutsche Bank with its large dealings with business of all sizes owned by Jews in the 1930s was well positioned to exploit for their own gain the dispossession of the Jews under the Nazis.
Like Siemens Deutsche Bank was present at the Red House meeting in 1944 and its present ownership of leading US and UK financial institutions would have delighted the SS who told those corporations to take major positions in allied commerce and industry.
Deutsche Bank was also a member of the “Freundeskreis des Reichsfuehrers SS” (Friends of the SS) making substantial donations to the SS.
Today Deutsche Bank is an enthusiastic supporter of the European Union and warns the British not to leave!
FORD
Last year Ford said it would reassess its UK presence if the UK were to leave the EU – a warning repeated recently as this arch corporatist with its Nazi loving background seeks to destroy national democracies in the name of enhanced world wide profits. Ford was a major contributor to Hitler’s election fund and Henry Ford was blessed with the award by the Nazis of Germany’s highest civilian honour in the early 1940s. Ford had published his anti-Semitic book “The International Jew: The World’s Foremost Problem,” in 1920. This American book was much more stridently anti-Jewish than Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf”.
BMW
BMW sales and marketing chief Ian Robertson recently said the UK should stay in the EU. BMW has for years been dominated by its founding family the Quandts who in the 1930s and 40s were especially close to the Nazi regime, contributing to Hitler’s personal election fund and being present at the 1944 Red House meeting in Strasbourg with the SS to plan post war Nazism through industrial concerns. Harald Quandt who with his half brother Herbert founded BMW was the son of Magda Goebbels (the wife of Josef Goebbels, Hitler’s Propaganda Chief) by her first marriage to Guenther Quandt. She wrote, an unrepentant Nazi, to Harald in 1945:
“My dear son! By now we’ve been in the Fuehrerbunker for six days already, Daddy, your six little siblings and I, will give our national socialistic lives the only possible, honourable ending,”
The major personal shareholders in BMW today are Goebbels’ grandchildren.
GENERAL ELECTRIC
A major 1930s contributor to the Nazis in general and Hitler’s election fund in particular today warns (June 2015) of “economic damage if Britain left the EU” GE’s Head of UK and Ireland said “We want to benefit from large scale trade agreements and we want to be able to operate seamlessly between our different business across Europe” So a few destroyed nations and democracies would be (as it was for them in the Hitler years) a price worth paying!
GE is in a long line of US corporations who from the Nazis to the Eurofanatics today, have financed the destruction of nation states to further their business interests. Ford, General Motors, the Rockefellers, Dupont and others were as active in Hitler’s Europe in the 1930s and early 1940s as they have been since the EEC was founded in 1957. (see my 1997 book Europe’s Full Circle, available on Amazon Kindle)
THE WALLENBERGS
This major industrial and banking family recently warned against the UK leaving the EU. Both Marcus and Jacob Wallenberg were worried about business and trade (their companies are capitalised at €250 billion) and – like the CBI – not at all about democracy or parliamentary sovereignty or the disastrous economic situation which their “Europe” had engendered!
But it has emerged over the years how the Wallenbergs – despite the heroic work of one family member Raoul in rescuing Jews in Budapest during the Second World War – in fact collaborated substantially with Nazi Germany. They were involved in the process of “cloaking” ownership of businesses in the USA which were in fact Nazi owned.
Elan Steinberg, executive director of the World Jewish Congress having examined declassified US Intelligence files even asserted that “the U.S. government knew that the Wallenberg bank, controlled by his (Raoul’s) uncles, was cooperating wholly with the Nazis. Sweden is clearly emerging as one of the places where the Nazis moved assets.”
According to the documents, The Enskilda Bank, owned by Jacob and Marcus Wallenberg, Raoul’s uncles, dealt in large black-market operations, money laundering and concealing German investments in the United States.
RUSSIA JUSTIFIED IN FEAR OF GERMAN/AMERICAN EXPANSIONISM
One of the great prizes of the 1930s and 1940s for fascist Europe and imperialist Germany were the grain fields and raw materials of the Ukraine – now once again the battleground for corporatist interests behind US/EU attacks on Russia and its sphere of influence.
With the overt return behind the “European Union” today of those corporations who financed, collaborated with and sustained in their imperial aggression Nazi Germany (and the overtly Nazi groups active in the overthrow by the US and EU of the government of Ukraine) you do not need to be a Soviet Communist to call these movements “fascist”.
Continuing their perpetual support of the US/EU expansion towards Russia a columnist in The Times recently asked “What about the freedom of sovereign countries?”
What indeed! Russia peacefully accepted the break up of its soviet structure in return for promises by the West that a buffer of sovereign democratic nations would emerge without hindrance in Eastern Europe.
But the EU with US military threats continued to expand – absorbing those nation states into its supranational bureaucratic corporatist empire, utilising in the Balkans and in the Ukraine those elements which draw inspiration and often names from the era of the Nazi hegemony.
The EU does not permit sovereign countries, as even the mindbogglingly naive David Cameron is finding out. No wonder Russians in the Crimea and Eastern Ukraine have exercised their right to self determination in the face of a resurgence of corporatist fascism in Western Europe.
