Text from leaflet linking and contrasting Bushism and Nazism, Bushism looking worse!

George W Bush and the Fourth Reich
Or how to introduce Fascism through the backdoor



"A clique of U.S. industrialists is hell-bent to bring a fascist state to supplant our democratic government and is working closely with the fascist regime in Germany and Italy. I have had plenty of opportunity in my post in Berlin to witness how close some of our American ruling families are to the Nazi regime. . . Certain American industrialists had a great deal to do with bringing fascist regimes into being in both Germany and Italy. They extended aid to help Fascism occupy the seat of power, and they are helping to keep it there."William E. Dodd, U.S. Ambassador to Germany, 1937



Nine Steps to Nazidom


Patriotic Nationalism

‘MORE than fourteen years have passed since the unhappy day when the German people, blinded by promises from foes at home and abroad, lost touch with honor and freedom, thereby losing all. Since that day of treachery, the Almighty has withheld his blessing from our people. Dissension and hatred descended upon us. With profound distress millions of the best German men and women from all walks of life have seen the unity of the nation vanishing away, dissolving in a confusion of political and personal opinions, economic interests, and ideological differences. Since that day, as so often in the past, Germany has presented a picture of heartbreaking disunity.’ Address to Nation 1933 Adolf Hitler

‘Germany has been renewed’ Adolf Hitler 1939


“We’re a nation of patriots again…we have a renewed spirit of patriotism” George W. Bush



State Capitalism

‘The State and German Industry must work as one’ Adolf Hitler.

‘Fascism has no intrinsic link to genocide. It is a theory of economics, basically, in which the state has ultimate authority over production and distribution without (as in socialism) actually owning the means of production or distribution. This is generally accomplished through cartelization, the creatin of industry-wide councils in which the representatives of the most powerful firms set policy in conjunction with the representatives of the government.’

‘In the 1930s, Hitler was widely viewed as just another protectionist central planner who recognized the supposed failure of the free market and the need for nationally guided economic development. What were those economic policies? He suspended the gold standard, embarked on huge public works programs like Autobahns, protected industry from foreign competition, expanded credit, instituted jobs programs, bullied the private sector on prices and production decisions, vastly expanded the military, enforced capital controls, instituted family planning, penalized smoking, brought about national health care and unemployment insurance, imposed education standards, and eventually ran huge deficits. The Nazi interventionist program was essential to the regime's rejection of the market economy and its embrace of ‘socialism’ in one country.’
‘For today's generation, Hitler is the most hated man in history, and his regime the archetype of political evil. This view does not extend to his economic policies, however. Far from it. They are embraced by governments all around the world. The Glenview State Bank of Chicago, for example, recently praised Hitler's economics in its monthly newsletter. In doing so, the bank discovered the hazards of praising Keynesian policies in the wrong context.’

‘WASHINGTON--Using a reputation for playing hardball and a little presidential persuasion, the Bush administration and its allies have swung the fractious business community into line behind the president's $665 billion economic growth plan, lobbyists say -- or at least driven any dissent underground.
When President Bush unveiled his economic plan, with its centerpiece proposal to slash taxes on corporate dividends, initial business reaction was muted at best and hostile in some instances. But over the past two months, the White House and its conservative allies have pulled disparate groups in line’. Washington Post

‘Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao earned a standing ovation from National Federation of Independent Business members when she outlined steps her department will take to help small businesses understand and comply with its hundreds of pages of regulations’.

‘ It’s voodoo economics!’ George Bush Snr on the laissez faire policies of the 80’s.



Populism
‘The foundation of Nazism was in essense its grassroots populism with the brutalised lumpenproletariat of Germany.’
‘Margaret Canovan laid out the basic themes of authoritarian and reactionary populism:
"...a charismatic leader, using the tactics of politicians’ populism to go past the politicians and intellectual elite and appeal to the reactionary sentiments of the populace, often buttressing his claim to speak for the people by the use of referendums. When populism is attributed to right–wing figures—Hitler, de Gaulle, Codreanu, Father Coughlin—this is what the word conjures up."’

‘The Bush Administration incites a converging response from three different major themes in American nationalism: (a) the militia tradition most recently exemplified by Flight 93 wherein citizens attack domestic threats themselves without waiting for government action, (b) uniquely American "populism" in which large segments of the population band together to force government action blocked by Madisonian factions/special interests, and (c) the "Jacksonian" tradition named after President Andrew Jackson in Walter Russell Mead's Divine Providence.
The Jacksonian trait most pertinent here is its quasi-tribal, and brutal, distinction between members of the community and outsiders. A perfect example of this distinction, and of justified concern about rising Jacksonian feelings, is a bill recently introduced in Congress to strip Al Qaeda members John Walker Lindh and Jose Padilla of their American citizenship.’


Racial and Elite Supremecy

George W Bush is part of a network of wealthy eliteWASP elite which regards itself as genetically superior according to inside sourc families, a direct descendant of the puritan leadership of the Pilgrim Fathers. See Racism below.

Racism

Little needs to be said of the Nazi’s use of Racism. Its origin was the maintainance of a ruling elite and its cultural protection from those below.

‘When The New Republic devoted almost an entire issue (10/31/94) to a debate with the authors of The Bell Curve, editor Andrew Sullivan justified the decision by writing, "The notion that there might be resilient ethnic differences in intelligence is not, we believe, an inherently racist belief." The Bell Curve draws from the eugenic argument: that the poor and non-white are getting what they deserve. It promotes a strict Social Darwinist approach to the Free Market.’
George W Bush claims the works of Charles Murray, author of The Bell Curve, and other books on the Free Market, have had more influence on him than any other book apart from the Bible. The Bush White House has been home to many ex-associates of the Manhatten Institute, a think tank developing Charles Murray’s ideas. The Bush Family is a major donator to Eugenics research.



Conspiratorial Politics

‘The original Nazi Party was founded, and initially funded, by a bizarre ‘secret society’ known as the German Order, later renamed the Thule Society (a group combining Germanic Paganism with Christianised Theosophy, Spiritualism and various insane occult fantasisies). The Order was itself created by a group of ultra-conservative German speaking aristocrats and high degree freemasons, who originally aimed to restore the old Holy Roman Empire, based on Austro-German Nationalism combined with a new esoteric form of Christianity. This Order based in Bavaria had close alliances with similar covert groups across the region, such as The Order of the New Templars in Austria and the lesser known Brotherhood of Death in North Germany, which acted in support of National Socialism locally, and whose existance can be traced back to the reactionary German Nationalism of the 19th Century. The Thule Society is said to have spawned a group within Himler’s SS known as the ‘Order of the Black Sun’, who were responsible for that groups occult interests and adoption of the death’s head symbol.’

According to some researchers the Thule Society later abandoned the Nazi Party (after Hitler and Himmler developed agendas of their own) and disappeared from the scene, allegedly reforming later as an unnamed organisation (popularly dubbed ‘The Black Order’). This new organisation is rumoured to have begun planning a Fourth Reich in the late 1940’s. Its present status is unknown, further research is required.

A report from the late 1990’s: "According to Robert Goldsborough of Washington Dateline, Governor George W Bush has a 'secret ingredient’ which will help him in his bid to become America's next president - membership in a society which is even more secretive than Freemasonry'. The society goes by the unofficial names of Skull and Bones and The Order, but its members are usually referred to as 'Bonesmen'."
Skull and Bones is the American chapter of the German Brotherhood Of Death Society, founded in the 19th Cent at Yale University, whose symbol is the skull with two crossed bones (or death’s head). Its members meet in a building called the Tomb. They are initiated as students but remain lifelong members. All male members of the Bush Family studying at Yale have been inducted into The Order. They are also a family with many Masonic connections.

‘It is now widely accepted that the Presidential victory of George Bush was the result of an election rigging conspiracy.’



Religious Dogmatism
‘Hitler held many hysterical beliefs which not only include God and Providence but also Fate, Social Darwinism, and politics. He spoke, unashamedly, about God, fanaticism, idealism, dogma, and the power of propaganda. Hitler held strong faith in all his convictions. He justified his fight for the German people and against Jews by using Godly and Biblical reasoning. Indeed, one of his most revealing statements makes this quite clear:’
"Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: *by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord.*"
‘Alfred Rosenberg stands as the major reason why so many American Christians think Nazism represented Nordic pagan beliefs instead of Nazi Christianity. Hitler chose Rosenberg to create a 'religion of the Blood' knowing that any form of propaganda could prove useful. However, Hitler also attempted to establish a Reich Christian Church for the future of Germany. Hitler, himself, did not believe in pagan cults. Rosenberg charged that the true picture of Jesus had been distorted by fanatics like Matthew, by materialistic rabbis like Paul, by African jurists like Tertullian, and the mongrel half-breeds like St. Augustine. The real Christ, wrote Rosenberg, was an Amorite Nordic, aggressive, courageous, "a man of true Nordic character," a revolutionary who opposed the Jewish and Roman systems with sword in hand, bringing not peace but war (see Matthew 10:34-37). Rosenberg later went on to say that he favored a "positive Christianity," which would purify the Nordic race, re-establish the old pagan virtues, and substitute the fiery spirit of the hero for the crucifixion’.

George W Bush, though sworn into office on a Masonic bible is a devout Christian.
‘Mr. Bush said, speaking about churches and other faith-based organizations. "We don't want the church to be the state, and we don't want the state to be the church. However, our government should support the good work of people who are changing America." During his 45-minute speech, Mr. Bush described how belief in a higher power could produce miraculous results.’


Membership of a Fascist Party

Obviously the case for most Nazis, but George W Bush has always been Republican (which isn’t quite the same). However his grandfather Prescott Bush effectively led the board of directors of the Union Banking Corporation (UBC) along with three top German National Socialist Party supporters (H.J. Kouwenhoven - industrial executive in Nazi Germany, director and chief foreign financial executive of the German Steel Trust; Johann G. Groeninger - industrial executive in Nazi Germany; and Cornelis Lievense - president of UBC, New York resident banking functionary for the National Socialist Party). At the time this bank was the chief overseas fund for the Nazi Party, funneling cash to Fritz Thyssen and his business partners in the German Steel Trust, now recognised as the most important German financiers of Adolf Hitler's takeover of Germany. Fritz Thyssen later admitted that he had helped finance Adolf Hitler and the Nazi movement since October1923 and later became its biggest backer. Old man Bush was also acting as an agent of Corporate America (like his son and grandson) but he was a man well chosen for the job. The assets of UBC were siezed and the bank closed (with several employees arrested) by the FDR administration on the US entry into WWII. The Bush Family escaped charges and portrayed themselves as model American patriots from then on. Though this didn’t stop some of them trying to help their old friends when they thought it was safe - 4/14/1990 New York Times quotes President George Bush as stating, "Lets forgive the Nazi war criminals."


Cult of War

"The struggle between the two worlds can permit no compromises. It's either Us or Them! Either you're with us or you're against us!"
Benito Mussolini, 1930.

‘The whole push of Nazi Militarism was a crusade like mission to Germanize the world and grab land and resources.’

‘We are fighting an Axis of Evil…….you are either with us or against us.’ George W Bush

‘On Sunday, Bush warned Americans that "this crusade, this war on terrorism, is going to take awhile."’

‘The Iraq war is an adventure for oil, business contracts and political territory.’


Differences between Bushism and Nazism

George W Bush has yet to order a racist Holocaust, though he was enthusiastically executing more prisoners on death row than any other Governer in history when in that role. One hundred being the official toll. On one occasion Bush even publically mocked a woman on death row before her execution, mimicking her voice and pleas for mercy. SS candidates would have a job competing with that one! In addition Eugenics supporters (such as the Bush Family) have also traditionally supported sterilization projects for ‘infererior genetic lines’ to boost the local economy. But obviously in this phase of his career he has to use legal methods and pay lip service to the American Constitution, with his eye on public opinion.

Not that Bush is anti-Semitic of course, in fact he works closely with Paul Wolfawitz, his deputy Defense Secretary and figurehead of the US Zionist movement. But then
We musn’t forget the close pragmatic ties between the early Nazi Party and the far right wing of the German Zionist movement in the 1920’s.

True there are far worst fascists in America than Bush, though many of them are linked to various members of the Bush Cabinet (clear links to White Supremicist groups were found to two members of the early Bush White House). Neither is he a worse fascist tyrant than Sadam Hussein, though the Bush Family was again involved with the US clique that helped put Hussein into power to serve American interests in the Middle East.


In contrast the National Socialist party was more ecologically conscious than Bush or any of his Party, who have done their best to protect polluters, and were far more critical of the evils of Capitalism than any one in the Bush Family has ever dared. Though that’s no defense of them.

So whose really worse, its hard to choose.


The War On Terror

George W Bush is a stalwart against Terrorism of course, particularly the Terrorism of his old family friend Osama bin Laden, allegedly a member of a similar fraternity to the Bushes, and of Al Qaeda, the terror network his father’s CIA helped set up. The Al Qaeda network (seen by many as a kind of Islamic neo-fascist organisation) is a real threat to public security, but a very convenient one for Bushites and their long term goal of an International Police State. Anyone would think the whole thing was a conspiracy!


Time to wake to and oppose Fascism while there still is time? RESIST.
