Holocaust Surviors Sue Bush Empire

Holocaust Survivors Sue Bush Empire
 
 
New documents shed light on Bush-Nazi connection, holocaust survivors sue Bush dynasty for $40 billion dollars. Some quotes from the Guardian Unlimited (UK) article:
 
"The Guardian has obtained confirmation from newly discovered files in the US National Archives that a firm of which Prescott Bush was a director was involved with the financial architects of Nazism."
 
"The debate over Prescott Bush's behaviour has been bubbling under the surface for some time. There has been a steady internet chatter about the "Bush/Nazi" connection, much of it inaccurate and unfair. But the new documents, many of which were only declassified last year, show that even after America had entered the war and when there was already significant information about the Nazis' plans and policies, he worked for and profited from companies closely involved with the very German businesses that financed Hitler's rise to power. It has also been suggested that the money he made from these dealings helped to establish the Bush family fortune and set up its political dynasty."
 
"The two Holocaust survivors suing the US government and the Bush family for a total of $40bn in compensation claim both materially benefited from Auschwitz slave labour during the second world war."
 
"The Bush family have largely responded with no comment to any reference to Prescott Bush. Brown Brothers Harriman also declined to comment."
