THE BROTHERHOOD OF DEATH
“We must speak the truth about terror. Let us never tolerate
outrageous conspiracy theories concerning the attacks of Septem-
ber 11, malicious lies that attempt to shift the blame away from the
terrorists themselves, away from the guilty.” —George W. Bush
speaking before the UN General Assembly 11/10/2001
“Conspirators are successful because the moral citizen can-
not accept the conclusion that other individuals would actually wish
to create incredibly destructive acts against their fellow citizens.” -
Ralph Epperson (the Unseen Hand).
“Some of the biggest men in the U.S. in the fields of com-
merce and manufacturing know that there is a power so organized,
so subtle, so complete, so pervasive that they had better not speak
above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.” -Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson, 28th President of the USA
THE HEGELIAN DIALECTIC

The philosophical and political roots of the 9/11 conspiracy
do not have their source in Afghanistan or from within the inner
sanctum of al-Qaeda or the current Bush administration, but in-
stead can be traced backwards in time, to Berlin, Germany, and the
year 1823.
It was in 1823 that Hegel, the great German philosopher and
political scientist, proposed his dialectic (1), an idea that spread
like a virus from the University of Berlin, to Yale college—the
alma matter of George W. Bush, his father, George H.W. Bush, and
grand-father, Prescott Bush.
Hegel proposed and developed the concept of “Controlled
Conflict.” Hegel argued “that all historical events emerge from a
conflict between opposing forces” and that change is a product of
conflict between two opposing forces that produced such change.
However, by creating, manipulating and controlling that conflict,
Hegel proposed, it was possible to create a specific end result: “Con-
57
America Betrayed
flict produces change, and controlled conflict produces controlled

change.” The controlled change is referred to as a “synthesis” such
that in the end, both opposing forces undergo change and cease to
exist except as an altered state (1).
By understanding and putting this principle to work, Hegel
argued, one could create a specific end result and shape world his-
tory, simply by creating and managing a controlled conflict be-
tween opposing parties and opposing states.
Hegel also believed the state to be representative of the Di-
vine Will. He argued that the end result of a controlled conflict,
was a product of reason and Divine Will, and had little or nothing
to do with the will of the masses whose purpose was simply to
obey.
Hegel’s views were also consistent with and incorporated
the theology of Martin Luther, the founder of Protestantism.
Luther preached that the true Christian owes absolute au-
thority to the State (2). It is not for the people to decide what is
right or wrong, but merely to obey.
Adolf Hitler deeply admired Luther, and considered the Prot-
estants to be “submissive as dogs, and they sweat with embarrass-
ment when you talk to them.”
When the German peasants revolted against the state in 1525,
Luther advised the princes to act ruthlessly against these “mad
dogs.”
Luther’s brand of Protestantism considered the state to be a
representative of the will of God on earth. Thus the Protestant
Church in Germany has always stood up for the advancement of
German nationalism and the interests of the state. Since its incep-
tion Protestant pastors have always stood solidly behind the King,
the Junkers, and the Army, until 1918 when the King was over-
thrown; an event which made the Weimar Republic an enemy of
the Protestant Church (3).
Thus, the German Protestant Church, being nationalistic, anti-
democratic, and a willing instrument of the state, was easy to Nazify,
though there was also opposition (3—pp 326-327).
Adolf Hitler considered Luther to be “one of my spiritual
ancestors. I have sought to carry out the ideas of this man of God,
to the smallest detail.” Indeed, both Hitler and Luther believed the
58
state to be the personification of divine will, and both men con-

demned the Jews “and their lies.”
“Throughout the history of Germany,” Luther once said, “the
Jews have exploited and sought to enslave honest Germans. While
Germans toiled, the Jews fleece us of our money and goods and
then sit around the stove and fart.”
Hitler also agreed with Luther’s solution to “the Jewish prob-
lem.” According to Luther (2): “First set fire to their synagogues...
raze and destroy their schools... take away their prayer books and
Talmudic writings, in which adultery, lies, and sex with children is
taught. Forbid that Rabbis be allowed to teach. Take away their
cash and silver. Let whosoever throw brimstone and pitch upon
them and let them be driven like mad dogs from the land.”
To destroy the Jews, would also be in keeping with the Nazi’s
version of eugenics: the extermination of a dangerous “subhuman”
race.
Hitler celebrated Luther’s birth date by unleashing his storm
troopers on November 9 and 10, 1938. The Nazis, funded by bank-
ers, industrialists, Standard Oil and Prescott Bush and associates
(4) destroyed Jewish business, and set fire to their synagogues and
schools—the so called Kristallnacht (3,5,6): “The Night of Broken
Glass.”
Though it is true that almost half of the Protestant clergy and
leadership initially opposed Hitler’s attempts to Nazify the Protes-
tant church (3), Nazi ideology is deeply rooted in Lutherism and
Hegelian thought. Both Luther (2) and Hegel (1) saw the state as
being an instrument of God.
As explained by Hegel (1): “The march of God in history is
the cause of the existence of states, their foundation is the power of
Reason realizing itself as will. Every state, whatever it be, partici-
pates in the Divine essence. The State is not the work of human art,
only Reason could produce it.”
Because the State is also God and a representative of abso-
lute pure reason, it is the absolute duty of all citizens to serve God
and Reason by serving the State. Democracy, individualism, mo-
rality, the will of the masses are irrelevant. According to Hegel,
the individual can only find freedom through worship and utter
obedience to the State (1).
59

Hitler believed that he had been chosen by “divine provi-

dence” to lead the state (3,5,6,7). Believing himself to have been
chosen by God, and that he was acting as an instrument of God,
Hitler—and his Nazi followers who shared these beliefs —also
believed that the Nazi state should act according to Hitler’s will,
and Hitler’s will alone.
As summed up by Rudolf Hess: “Hitler is Germany and Ger-
many is Hitler!”
“The individual is nothing.” —Adolf Hitler.
“If men were given complete liberty of action, they would
immediately behave like apes. Slacken the reins of authority, give
more liberty to the individual, and you are driving the people along
the road to decadence” —Adolf Hitler (7).
The philosophies of Hegel (1), Luther (2), and Hitler (7), in
equating the state with Divine Will, also promotes the goal of anni-
hilating all individuality. The individual is nothing. The individual
has no rights. Morality consists solely in obedience to the state
which is a manifestation of the Divine essence and the power of
reason.
Democracy, therefore, is the antithesis of Hegelian thought.
As summed up by Hegel (1): “All the worth which the hu-
man being possesses, all spiritual reality, he possesses only through
the State. For truth is the unity of the universal and subjective will;
and the Universal is found in the State, in its laws, its universal and
rational arrangements. The State is the Divine Idea as it exists on
earth.”
Likewise, according to Hegel, the synthesis resulting from
the conflict between opposing forces and opposing states (thesis
vs anti-thesis) represents the “march of God through history.”
However, because God and the Divine essence is also a mani-
festation of reason, the use of reason to manipulate and create a
controlled conflict (between “thesis” and “anti-thesis”) could there-
fore result in the creation of a new state (Synthesis): A new world
order that is divinely inspired and governed by an all powerful in-
tellectual elite.
In the 1990s, George H.W. Bush, repeatedly announced and
called for a “New World Order.”
60
THE NEW WORLD ORDER

Paradoxical as it may seem, Hegel’s philosophy not only pro-
vided a theoretical basis that supported Germany’s Protestant reli-
gion and the most conservative and rabidly nationalist of German
political movements during the 19th century, but opposing revolu-
tionary movements of the 20th century: Marxism (8) and the rise
of Nazism and Adolf Hitler (9).
Broadly considered, Hegelians can be divided into two seem-
ingly oppositional camps: the right-wing Hegelians who promoted
German/Prussian militarism and spawned Baron von Bismarck and
later Adolf Hitler (9), and the left-wing Hegelians (the “scientific
socialists”) who provided the philosophical foundations that gave
rise to Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, and thus Marxism/Commu-
nism (8).
Be it Nazi or Communist, regardless of their right- or left-
ward leanings, these Hegelians all share the same unifying beliefs:
The supremacy of an all powerful state, the total insignificance of
individuality, contempt for democracy, and the desire to create a
New World Order—a singular all powerful government which
would rule the world (7,8,9).
THESIS VS ANTI-THESIS = SYNTHESIS

The existence of these two opposing Hegelian-political/gov-
ernmental organizations, is also Hegelian. The Hegelian dialectic
envisions the participation of two opposing parties (thesis vs anti-
thesis) who are then guided and manipulated into engaging in a
controlled conflict (1). The result of this conflict between thesis
and anti-thesis, is synthesis: change in the form of increased wealth,
increased power, and the concentration of this power and wealth in
the hands of a divinely elected elite who control the state; i.e. a
New World Order.
At the turn of the 19th century, the major national powers of
the world were ruled by Kings or democratically elected govern-
ments whose economies were capitalistic. Communism was as
yet, a theory.
The first world war was not fought between communists and
capitalists, but between kings and kings (e.g., Germany against
Russia), and between kings and democratically elected governments
61
America Betrayed
(i.e. Germany against France, Britain and America).

As the first world war neared to a close, it became apparent
that the democratic states would triumph and that the Kings of
Germany and Russia would be exiled and deposed.
War and conflict is good for business, at least for those lend-
ing money or selling oil and weapons. But if the kings were de-
posed and replaced by democratically-elected governments, wars
and thus controlled conflict, among the major powers might well
become obsolete.
As the first world war drew to a close, an American bank,
with direct ties to Prescott Bush and George Walker (Bush’s future
father-in-law), began providing loans, funds, and other assistance
to Communist terrorists and Bolshevik revolutionaries who were
striving to overthrow the Russian Zsar (10). In 1917, the Bolshe-
viks took power in Russia, and the “red terror” began. Millions of
Russians were murdered by terrorists who were financed by Stan-
dard Oil and a New York investment bank, Guaranty Trust (10).
The communist government of the new Soviet Union would
now be in conflict with the democratic West, as the stated goals of
both were world dominion; i.e. a communist world (Thesis), or a
democratic world (Anti-Thesis). Those who would finance and thus
control the coming conflict, would be bankers, oil companies, and
arm’s merchants, and in return they would be the recipients of in-
credible wealth, i.e. synthesis.

With the defeat of Germany, World War I came to an end.

However, although Germany’s king was deposed and exiled and a
democratic government was installed in his place (the Weimar
Republic), the controlled conflict within Germany had just begun.
Nationalists, Nazis, and monarchists battled with the Communists
and the democratically elected government in order to install their
own regimes in its place (3,5,6,7).
The German communists advocated the creation of a Soviet
Socialist state aligned with and eventually to become a satellite of
Soviet Russia. The Hitler wing of the Nationalist movement in-
stead promised to destroy both the Weimar Republic and the Ger-
man Communists. As detailed in Hitler’s Mein Kampf, he also
promised to destroy Communist Russia which would become, in-
stead, a Nazi slave state (3,5,7).
The Nazis and Russian Communists not only shared the same
fascist Hegelian roots but were propped up financially by some of
the same individuals and organizations (10,11), including the
alumni of a Yale secret society, “The Brotherhood of Death” (also
known as “Skull and Bones”), e.g., the Bush family and their asso-
ciates in the oil and banking industries.
Hitler and his Nazis began receiving tens of thousands of
dollars from individuals, banks and business associated with Bush-
Harriman and Standard Oil, as early as 1923 (12). By the late
1920s until he came to power, Hitler and his Nazis were receiving
millions of dollars in payments (12) —money and assistance which
kept pouring in even after Hitler declared war on Russia and
America (12,13).
From the perspective of bankers and arm’s merchants, there
is no contradiction in providing funds to and doing business with
opposing groups, organizations, or states. If both could be guided
into conflict, both would require loans to buy weapons, which would
trigger an arm’s race, and eventually, war. And war is good for
63

banks, oil companies, and arm’s merchants.

This strategy also has Hegelian roots.
Thesis and anti-thesis = controlled conflict between oppos-
ing states: Nazi Germany vs Communist Russia, for the purposes
of creating a synthesis.
Synthesis: The creation of new wealth for bankers, the arma-
ments industry, and the financial backers of the Nazi and Commu-
nists regimes, and the creation of a “New World Order.”

THE NEW WORLD ORDER:

A WORLD OF SLAVES
During the 1930s and early 1940s, the Bush family and their
associates (Harriman, Rockefeller), were betting on the Nazis as
were a number of other influential Americans, such as Joe Kennedy
(14) and newspaper magnate William Randolf Hearst (15). Some
of these men not only openly supported the Nazis, but were pre-
dicting the death of democracy (as well as Communism) and advo-
cating a Nazi form of government for the United States.
In the 1930s and 1940s, it seemed to many that Hitler and his
Nazis would finally deliver the Hegelian promise of a New World
Order, ruled over by a divinely inspired and a divinely chosen, busi-
ness-friendly, powerful elite (3,4).
“My presence on earth is providential. I owe it to a superior
will.” —Adolf Hitler.
Power, however, requires money. Money can be borrowed,
stolen, or earned. To make the most money requires the elimina-
tion of competitors. As summed up by John D. Rockefeller: “Com-
petition is a sin.”
It was in fact the goal of the SS, also known as “The Order”
and the “Brotherhood of Death” to gain monopolistic control over
all forms of German industry and commerce and to employ, as
slave labor, the conquered peoples of other countries (6,7)—slaves
who would be kept ignorant, impoverished, unhealthy, and unedu-
cated.
As pontificated by Hitler (7):
“What will the social order of the future be like? Comrade, I
will tell you. There will be a class of overlords, after them the rank
and file of the party members in hierarchical order, and then the
great mass of anonymous followers, servants and workers in per-
petuity, and beneath them again all the conquered foreign races,
the modern slaves. And over and above all these will reign a new
and exalted nobility of whom I cannot speak.”
65

“In order to retain our domination over the people in the ter-
ritories we have conquered... we must therefore...deprive them of
any form of State organization and consequently, keep them on as
low a cultural level as possible.”
“The ideal solution would be to teach this people an elemen-
tary kind of mimicry. No special books for them! The radio will be
enough to give them the essential information. Of music, they can
have as much as they want. They can practice listening to the tap
running. I’m against entrusting them with any work that calls for
the least mental effort.”
“To teach the Russians, the Ukrainians and the Kirghiz to
read and write will eventually be to our own disadvantage; educa-
tion will give the more intelligent among them an opportunity to
study history, to acquire an historical sense and, hence, to develop
political ideas which cannot but be harmful to our interests.”
“A loud-speaker should be installed in each village, to pro-
vide them with odd items of news and, above all, to afford distrac-
tion. What possible use to them would a knowledge of politics or
economics be? There is also no point in broadcasting any stories
of their past history. All the villagers require is music, music and
plenty of it. Cheerful music is a great incentive to hard work; give
them plenty of opportunities to dance, and the villagers will be
grateful to us.”
“In the field of public health, there is no need whatsoever to
extend to the subject races the benefits of our own knowledge. This
would result only in an enormous increase in local populations,
and I absolutely forbid the organization of any sort of hygiene or
cleanliness crusades in these territories. Dentistry, too, should re-
main a closed book for them.”
“Compulsory vaccination will be confined to Germans alone,
and the doctors in the German colonies will be there solely for the
purpose of looking after the German colonists. We must even try
to stifle any desire for such things, by persuading them that vacci-
nation and the like are really most dangerous!”
“I recently read an article from the pen of some Herr Doktor
advocating the prohibition of the sale in the occupied territories of
contraceptives. If any criminal lunatic should really try to intro-
duce this measure, I’d soon have his head off! In view of the ex-
66
traordinary fertility of the local inhabitants, we should be only too

pleased to encourage the women and the girls to practice the arts of
contraception at all times. Far from prohibiting the sale of contra-
ceptives, therefore, we should do our utmost to encourage it.”
“The local population must be given no facilities for higher
education. Instruction in geography can be restricted to one single
sentence: The Capital of the Reich is Berlin, a city which everyone
should try to visit once in his lifetime. There is no need to teach
them much more than, say, the meaning of the various road-signs.
Jodl is quite right when he says that notices in the Ukrainian lan-
guage ‘Beware of the Trains’ are superfluous; what on earth does it
matter if one or two more locals get run over by the trains?”
“As for the ridiculous hundred million Slavs, we will mould
the best of them to the shape that suits us, and we will isolate the
rest of them in their own pig-styes; and anyone who talks about
cherishing the local inhabitant and civilizing him, goes straight off
into a concentration camp!”
When Adolf Hitler spoke of a “New World Order,” he envi-
sioned a world of slaves ruled over by the Nazi elite: “The Brother-
hood of Death,” his SS, the high ranking membership of which
consisted almost exclusively of aristocrats and the kings of indus-
try and commerce (6,7).
“Thanks to its method of recruiting, the SS will be a nursery
of rulers. In a hundred years’ time from now, we’ll control this
whole empire without having to rack our brains to know where to
find the proper men.” —Adolf Hitler (7).
When the newly elected George H.W. Bush (and his admin-
istration) took office in 1988 and repeatedly spoke of “a new world
order,” and when, twelve years later, his son, President George W.
Bush (and his administration) spoke the same words, these men
were not addressing the American public. They were speaking to
the same brotherhood which brought Hitler to power, “the Broth-
erhood of Death.”
IT ALL BEGINS AT YALE: SKULL & BONES

In 1823, Samuel Russell, a child of the Wall Street banking
establishment, founded “Russell & Company” the largest opium
smuggling operation in the world. Russell and Company was based
67
America Betrayed
in Connecticut, and in addition to Chinese tea and silk, specialized

in acquiring opium in Turkey and smuggling it to China (16).
In 1830, Russell and Company bought out their primary com-
petitor, the Perkins (Boston) syndicate and thus established Con-
necticut as the epi-center of the illegal opium trade. Because of the
incredible wealth generated, and through his connections to Wall
Street, Russell’s company (and thus Connecticut) became an epi-
center of illegal and secret political power (16).
The grandfather of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt,
Warren Delano, Jr., served as Chief of Operations, at Russell and
Company, and later became a partner (16).
In 1831, William Huntington Russell, half-brother to Samuel,
left the United States and Yale college, to spend a year studying in
Germany (17). Germany was in a fever, the epi-center of “new
ideas” and a scientific revolution in psychology, philosophy, and
educational reform. In the new Germany, children were being edu-
cated according to the “scientific method.” They were taught what
to think and how to think it, as well as total obedience to the state.
William Huntington Russell wanted to learn first hand, “The
“Scientific Method” and the ideas and philosophy of Georg Wilhelm
Friedrich Hegel. Hegel held the Chair in Philosophy at the Univer-
sity of Berlin from 1817 until his death in 1831.
In Germany, the scientific method, and the Hegelian dialec-
tic were being applied to every aspect of human endeavor: through
reason and the application of the scientific method, it was possible
to create a pre-determined synthesis and thus the most desirable
predetermined outcomes (1).
Russell was particularly impressed with the concept of “thesis
versus anti-thesis” and Hegel’s historical dialectic: the state is ab-
solute, individuals are granted their freedoms based on their obedi-
ence to the state, controlled conflict, by an intellectual elite, can
produce a pre-determined outcome.
Russell, being a child of the Wall Street banking elite, quickly
realized the implications. Hegel’s philosophy and the “Scientific
Method” could be applied to banking: Through controlled con-
flict, it was possible to create a synthesis in the form of incredible
financial wealth. Those engaged in this conflict would require fi-
nancing. Controlled conflict, when conducted in secret, would be
68
good for business.

Indeed, secrecy is mandated when the dialectic is applied to
the creation of “opposing forces” who are to be manipulated into
engaging in a “controlled conflict.” Secrecy is also necessitated so
that the opposing forces do not realize that the same banks are
providing funds to both of those in conflict.
Of course, William Huntington Russell was not the first to
realize the necessity of secrecy for the purposes of applying Hegel’s
dialectic to banking and commerce. Banking requires secrecy,
particularly when it comes to laundering incredible sums of money
acquired through criminal enterprise and the drug trade.
Long before he arrived in Germany, Russell had learned the
value of secrecy. What he wanted was to learn first hand was the
Hegelian scientific method. So, it is not surprising that after he
enrolled at the University of Berlin, Russell became a member of a
secret society which also incorporated Hegelian ideas.
Russell joined the secret order of “Skull and Bones” (17).
The membership of the Berlin order of Skull and Bones came from
the privileged class, the aristocracy, and the families of bankers
and the moneyed elite. Russell fit fight in and formed a warm and
close relationship with many of its members.
When it came time for his to return to America and Yale col-
lege, Russell sought and obtained permission to form an American
chapter of the secret German Society of Skull and Bones: chapter
322, The Brotherhood of Death (17,18).
Russell returned to the United States and Yale College in
1832. Russell, along with his very close friend, Alphonso Taft (the
father of William Howard Taft who became President of the U.S.
and then Chief Justice of the Supreme Court), and 13 other chil-
dren of the Wall Street elite, established and became the founding
members of “The Order of Scull and Bones,” later changed to “The
Order of Skull and Bones.”
The Order of Skull and Bones was to be a super secret soci-
ety for the elite children of the Anglo-American Wall Street bank-
ing establishment (17,18). Its purpose: To generate incredible wealth
and power for its members.
Presumably, the Order of Skull and Bones exists only at Yale.
As detailed in Antony C. Sutton’s superbly researched 1986 text,
69
America Betrayed
America’s Secret Establishment (17): “Those on the inside know it

as The Order. Others have known it for more than 150 years as
Chapter 322 of a German secret society. More formally, for legal
purposes, The Order was incorporated as The Russell Trust in 1856.
It was also once known as the ‘Brotherhood of Death.’ Those who
make light of it, or want to make fun of it, call it ‘Skull & Bones’,
or just plain ‘Bones’.”
The Order of Skull and Bones, however, is certainly not a
college fraternity fun-house. Rather, the purpose of Skull and Bones
is the application of skull duggery, piracy, and the scientific method
to the creation of power, wealth, and the inducement of controlled
conflict between opposing individuals, businesses, and states.
The Order of Skull and Bones is also geared to promote the
mutual success of its members in the post-collegiate world. Hence,
only those of the incoming senior class become members (17,18)
and membership is retained for life.
Each year fifteen juniors are selected by the graduating se-
niors to be initiated into next year’s group. New members are re-
portedly given a large sum of money, and a clock—the signifi-
cance of which is to remind them that the Order of Skull and Bones
is timeless.
As detailed by Antony Sutton (17) it is the “timeless” nature
of this secret brotherhood which provides it with continuity and
thus the capacity to build up both vertical and horizontal “chains
of influence.” These multi-generational chains of influence ensure
the success of its members in their varied schemes, be it drug smug-
gling or the creation and financing of controlled conflict for the
purposes of acquiring power and incredible wealth.
Prescott Bush, George H.W. Bush, and his son, George W.
Bush, are alumni of Yale and members of Skull and Bones (17,19).

After its founding, Russell and friends hoisted a pirate flag
as a symbol and talisman of their brotherhood. The pirate flag has
an obvious meaning: death. Pirates are terrorists, murderers, ma-
rauders, cutthroats and thieves, answerable to no one, above the
law, and without morals and scruples.
Soon after its establishment at Yale, the Order of Skull and
70
Bones began to develop an unsavory reputation (17).

In October of 1876, an investigative article on The Order,
appeared in Volume 1, Number 1, of “The Iconoclast.” The
Inconclast was published off campus, in New Haven, “because the
college press is closed to those who dare to openly mention
‘Bones’.”
The Iconoclast reported evidence of Satanism, i.e. walls cov-
ered in black, and in room 322, the “sanctum sanctorium of the
temple...[was] furnished in red velvet...[with] a pentagram on the
wall... and in the hall....pictures of the founders of Bones at Yale,
and of members of the Society in Germany, when the chapter was
established here in 1832.”
The Iconoclast goes on to report that “Out of every class
Skull and Bones takes its men. They have gone out into the world
and have become in many instances, leaders in society. No doubt
they are worthy men in themselves, but the many, whom they looked
down upon while in college, cannot so far forget as to give money
freely into their hands. Bones men care far more for their society
than they do for the college.”
“At first the society held its meetings in hired halls; in 1856,
the ‘tomb,’ a vine-covered, windowless, brown-stone hall was built.
This is where they hold their strange, occultist initiation rites and
meet each Thursday and Sunday.”
“Year by year the deadly evil is growing,” The Iconoclast
warned. “The society was never as obnoxious as it is today. Never
before has it shown such arrogance and self-fancied superiority. It
grasps... and endeavors to rule. It clutches at power with the si-
lence of conscious guilt... a society guilty of serious and far-reach-
ing crimes.”
An uninvited “guest” to the tomb reported seeing: “On the
west wall, an old engraving representing an open burial vault, in
which, on a stone slab, rest four human skulls, grouped about a
fools cap and bells, an open book, several mathematical instru-
ments, a beggar’s script, and a royal crown (17,18). On the arched
wall above the vault are the explanatory words, in Roman letters,
‘We War Der Thor, Wer Weiser, Wer Bettler Oder, Kaiser?’ and
below the vault is engraved, in German characters, the sentence;
‘Ob Arm, Ob Beich, im Tode gleich.’”

America Betrayed
The English translation of the German words reads as fol-

lows: “Who was the fool, who the wise man, beggar or king?
Whether poor or rich, all’s the same in death.”
And what does that mean?
There are no morals. There is no right or wrong. The ends
justify the means. Everything ends the same, “in death.”
*******
For the next 30 years after its founding, various members of
The Order of Skull and Bones made a pilgrimage to Germany and
the University of Berlin (17). The University of Berlin was Ground
Zero for the study of Hegelian principles and the “scientific method”
as applied to business, government, education, psychology, and the
acquisition of power and wealth .
In Germany, the state had taken complete responsibility for
the education of children. The purpose of a German education was
to mold the character and thinking of all German citizens and to
make them obedient to the German state (1).
These Hegelian principles were absorbed by the visiting
Bonesman, three of which, upon returning to America, applied these
principles at home (17).
Timothy Dwight (class of 1849) became Professor in the Yale
Divinity School and then 12th President of Yale University.
Daniel Coit Gilman (class of 1852) became the first Presi-
dent of the University of California, first President of the Johns
Hopkins University and first President of the Carnegie Institution.
Andrew Dickson White (class of 1853) became the first Presi-
dent of Cornell University.
For these three “Bonesmen,” a university education was the
key to shaping the thoughts, prejudices, and ideas of future genera-
tions and training those who would someday become the future
leaders of America. Of course, these noble “Bonesmen” had no
interest in providing a university education to the masses. A uni-
versity education was only for the children of the rich and power-
ful; men who would seek to fulfill the Hegelian dialectic and the
eventual creation of a New World Order which would be ruled over
by the moneyed elite.
72
NEW WORLD ORDER: CIVIL WAR & THE MONEYED

ELITE
Although, most certainly, the founding of colleges and uni-
versities is to be commended in the most laudatory of terms, not all
“Bonesmen” were interested in improving the lot of mankind. Edu-
cation would be a form of thought control and mankind would serve
only one purpose: to engage in controlled conflict, to help create a
New World Order, and to thus make the Bonesmen and their banker
and business friends very powerful and very rich.
The American civil war offered the Bonesmen and their as-
sociates in banking, the first opportunity, in America, to fund con-
trolled conflict. The resulting “synthesis” would include the ero-
sion of democracy at the local level (“states rights”), the elimina-
tion of state-chartered “Free Banking” and the establishment of
centralized “national” banking and thus the establishment of a few
private “national” banks that could be owned and controlled by a
handful of families.
From the outset of the American civil war, these private na-
tional banks (as well as the “Free” banks), loaned money to both
the Union and the Confederacy (20). Many of these bankers also
funded and equipped “bushwakers,” “death squads,” and private
militias whose specialties included the torture and assassination of
Union or Confederate sympathizers. Neighbors were sometimes
“slain before the eyes of their wives and children,” some were killed
for “fun” (21). Not uncommonly these “death squads” would pick
“off neighbors one by one,” ambushing and assassinating suspected
enemies, and spreading terror. Every man, armed or unarmed, was
fair game. Men were shot down in their fields, on their doorsteps,
while on the road. Men taken captive were scalped, beheaded,
castrated, and mutilated. Crops, homes and entire towns were burned
(21).
The owners of these banks, these merchants of death, essen-
tially funded the war and the many competing death squads in or-
der to reap the incredible, staggering profits. Indeed, by the end of
the war, over $6.6 billion dollars in direct costs (that is, in 1860s
dollars) had been consumed by the civil war and the government
of the Union and Confederacy (20).
War and terror were good business. The merchants of death
73
America Betrayed
made incredible fortunes.

In 1863, Abraham Lincoln identified this moneyed elite, as
the enemies of mankind and the enemies of the United States of
America:
“The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace
and conspire against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic
than a monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than
bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its
methods or throw Light upon its crimes. I have two great enemies,
the Southern Army in front of me and the bankers in the rear. Of
the two, the one at my rear is my greatest foe... corporations have
been enthroned, and an era of corruption in high places will fol-
low, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong
its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until the
wealth is aggregated in the hands of a few, and the Republic is
destroyed.” —Abraham Lincoln
Thomas Jefferson was of the same opinion: “I sincerely be-
lieve that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties
than standing armies. Already they have raised up a money aristoc-
racy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power
should be taken from the banks and restored to the people to whom
it properly belongs.”
In 1863, after a failed attempt to bring the banks under cen-
tralized government control, President Lincoln and Congress took
the advice of his Secretary of the Treasury and the northern bank-
ing establishment, and created a national banking system and a
uniform national currency to be issued only by “national banks”
(20).
The National Banking Act of 1863 and a subsequent law
passed in 1865 (which levied a 10-percent tax on State banks) put
the free banks out of existence. The control of the national banks
was put squarely into the hands of the members of the order of
Skull and Bones (20).
It wasn’t just banking but money which was put under the
control of a handful of individuals. National Bank Notes were
printed by private bank note companies under contract to the Fed-
eral government.
The Guaranty Trust Company was one of the national banks
74
which emerged during the war between the states. The Guaranty
Trust Company, established in 1864, was controlled almost entirely
by families whose sons were, or would soon become, members of
Skull and Bones: Vanderbilt, Whitney, and Harriman (17,22).
THE BROTHERHOOD OF SHIPPING & BANKING:

HITLER’S ANGELS
The concept of a bank is quite simple. Money is deposited
in the bank for safekeeping, and the bank may pay a small interest
fee to depositors in return. This same money is loaned to busi-
nesses, governments, and men of means, at a high rate of interest.
This same money can be loaned to those who own the banks, at a
0% interest rate, and the loans may even be “forgiven.”
A bank is a risk-free money-making machine for those who
own the bank. If anyone defaults on a loan, and if the bank goes
bankrupt, only the depositors lose money.
With the incredible amounts of money flowing into the cof-
fers of the Guaranty Trust Company, the Harriman family was able
to finance and buy the bankrupt Union Pacific Railroad, as well as
create the W. A. Harriman investment firm.
Bert Walker (the maternal great-grand-father to the current
George Walker Bush clan) was one of Harriman’s principal part-
ners. Bert Walker had sought and lost the Republican presidential
nomination, but in so doing, had established himself as a member
of the Republican power-elite (23). Bert Walker and then later, his
son, George Walker, were not only partners with the Harrimans,
but, due to their Republican credentials, were well situated to in-
fluence the administrations of successive Republican presidents.
The Harrimans were also partners with the Rockefellers. The
Harriman railroad shipped the oil pumped out of the ground by
John D. Rockefeller, the founder of Standard Oil.
Samuel P. Bush—the father of Prescott, was also in business
with the Harriman-Walker-Rockefeller clique. Samuel P. Bush,
owned Buckeye Steel Castings Co. which manufactured parts for
the Harriman railroad company (23).
It is men likes these, if not these very men, who Lincoln
referred to as “The money powers [who] prey upon the nation in
times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity...until
75
America Betrayed
the wealth is aggregated in the hands of a few, and the Republic is

destroyed.”
TRADING WITH THE ENEMY

In the 1930s, Bush, Harriman, and Rockefeller, established
themselves as enemies of democracy by going into business with
Hitler, and by importing Nazism to the United States. As detailed
in chapter 2, it is because Bush was still in business with the Nazis
after Hitler declared war on the U.S., that several of his companies,
including the Hamburg-Amerika shipping line, was confiscated by
the government of the United States.
History was repeating itself, for at the close of the first world
war, and Germany’s defeat, the Hamburg-Amerika’s commercial
shipping fleet was first confiscated by the American government
in 1919—part of the spoils of war.
In 1920, the Harrimans became the new owners of Ham-
burg-Amerika. The Harrimans also obtained the exclusive right to
50% of all shipping business that originated in Hamburg and 100%
control of all activities of the Hamburg line that originated in the
United States.
In 1931, Harriman & Co. merged with Brown Brothers to
become one of the biggest investment banks in the world. Prescott
Bush became a senior partner in the new firm. That same year,
George Walker began running the North American operations of
the Hamburg-Amerika shipping line under the auspices of Walker’s
American Shipping & Commerce, which in turn was controlled by
a holding company called the Harriman Fifteen. Averell Harriman,
George Walker, and Prescott Bush were the directors of this hold-
ing company and thus the owners of the Hamburg-Amerika line
(4,23).
Three years later, U.S. government investigators determined
that several of the directors of the Hamburg-Amerika line, were
major contributors to the Nazi Party. These men, it was determined,
had provided a wealth of funds to Hitler for his 1932 election cam-
paign (12). Prescott Bush was one of these men. Prescott Bush was
financing Nazi terrorism as a means of destabilizing Germany’s de-
mocratic government and catapulting Hitler to power.
Prescott Bush and one of the companies that he directed, the
76
Hamburg-Amerika Line, was identified by the U.S. embassy in

Berlin as providing the funds to support Hitler’s “costly election
campaigns’’ and “the cost of maintaining a private army of 300,000
to 400,000 men.” It was these men who spread terror throughout
Germany.
As detailed by Tarpley and Chaitkin (24) “The American
embassy also reported that the Hamburg-Amerika Line was pur-
chasing and distributing propaganda attacks against the German
government, for attempting this last-minute crackdown on Hitler’s
forces.”
After Hitler came to power, the Hamburg-Amerika Line also
began financing Nazi propaganda and subsidizing pro-Nazi news-
papers here in the U.S. The purpose of this propaganda was clear.
The Bonesmen were not just seeking to support Nazi Germany, but
were seeking to undermine the constitutional government of the
United States (4,24). The Bonesmen were sworn enemies of de-
mocracy.
THE BROTHERHOOD
After Hitler came to power, his dreaded terrorist organiza-
tion, the SS was unleashed upon the German people (3,5,6). The
SS was not just a terrorist organization, but deeply involved in spy-
ing and espionage as well as business. Other long range goals
was to establish monopolies not only in Germany, but in all the
countries it conquered (6). Himmler’s dreaded SS, had a lot of
friends in the business world who also hoped to benefit from the
spoils. They gave him and his SS incredible sums of money, mak-
ing them, so to speak, stockholders in his money-making terrorist
organization.
The Hamburg-Amerika line, which was directed by Prescott
Bush, not only contributed money and helped to distribute Nazi
propaganda in the U.S. and Germany, but it was also one of the
official “Friends of the Reichsfuhrer SS” (6) —also known as “The
Order” and the “Brotherhood of Death.”
Like its American counterpart, the “Order of Skull and Bones”
the German “Order” was dedicated to making money, and recruited
its membership from the aristocracy and the moneyed elite.
77
America Betrayed
HITLER AND THE BROTHERHOOD OF DEATH

In 1922, Averell Harriman, an alumni of Skull and Bones
(Class of 1913), made a pilgrimage to Germany. But Hamburg
wasn’t the lure. It was Berlin—the ancestral home of Skull and
Bones, the Brotherhood of Death. Indeed, various members of
The Order of Skull and Bones had been making pilgrimages to
Germany and the University of Berlin since the inception of the
American chapter of the Brotherhood of Death (17). Harriman was
a dedicated “Bonesman.”
According to his third wife, Pamela, Averell “Harriman regu-
larly went back to the tomb (the Bone’s Temple) on High Street,
once even lamenting that his duties as chief negotiator at the Paris
Peace Talks prevented him from attending a reunion” (25).
While in Berlin he made contact with Fritz Thyssen, also,
allegedly, a member of a Germany-based secret society; though
which one, of course, is a secret.
A number of German secret societies were in existence at
the time, such as the Illuminnati of Bavaria and the Thule Society.
These secret societies counted rich industrialists, mystics, aristo-
crats, bankers and high ranking military men among their mem-
bers (26).
In the early 1920s, when Harriman paid his visit to Ger-
many, the membership of the Thule Society included Dietrich
Eckart, Rudolf Hess, and Heinrich Himmler (27) all of whom were
directly associated with Adolf Hitler, and all of whom became Nazi
leaders (3,5). The secret society that had anointed Hitler as its
leader, would later become known to the world as the SS —The
Brotherhood of Death (6).
Although it cannot be proved, there is evidence to suggest
that Himmler’s SS, and its American counterpart, Skull and Bones,
were one and the same and directly linked with the Thule Society
or the Illuminnati. In fact (and as will be detailed later in this chap-
ter), some of the occult rituals that were said to be part of the initia-
tion into the Thule Society and the SS (27), are similar to those that
are said to be practiced by initiates into the American chapter of
the Brotherhood of Death, that is, Skull and Bones (17,28).
For example, both employ initiation ceremonies in which
the initiate “dies to the world and be born again into the Order...”
78
(29). In October of 1988 then Vice-President George H.W. Bush

was asked by a reporter if he were “a Christian.” At first Bush
seemed confused by the question, but then said, “if you mean born
again, then, yes, I am a Christian.”
In his book, Mein Kamph (7) and in some of his speeches,
Hitler also refers to being born again, that is “born anew.”
Likewise, George Bush jr., refers to himself as “born again”
and freely admits he was “honored” to be chosen to be a member
of Skull and Bones. As reported in the August 7, 2000 issue of
Time magazine, Bush was asked: “Did you have any qualms, say,
about joining an elite secret club like Bones?” Bush replied, “No
qualms at all. I was honored.”
The motto of Hitler’s SS begins as follows: “It is an honor to
be an SS man. It is an honor...” (6).
The leaders of the Thule Society also believed it to be an
honor to have inducted Hitler into the mysteries of its secret order
(27). In 1919, Dietrich Eckart, a leading member of the Thule So-
ciety, met Adolf Hitler for the first time. Eckhart believed that Hitler
was the German “Messiah... the long-awaited savior” who would
lead Germany to her destiny. Eckhart took Hitler under his wing
and initiated Hitler into the mysteries of the secret order: “Follow
Hitler; he will dance, but it is I who have called the tune. I have
initiated him into the Secret Doctrine, opened his centers of vision,
and given him the means to communicate with the powers” (27).
Hitler, in turn, referred to Eckhart as the “spiritual founder
of” the Nazi party (7). In Table Talk (7) Hitler says of the man:
“We’ve all taken a step forward on the road of existence, and we
could no longer picture to ourselves exactly what Dietrich Eckart
was for us. He shone in our eyes like the polar star.” In the final
paragraphs of Mein Kampf (7), Hitler says of Eckart, “he was one
of the best, who devoted his life to the awakening...”
Prominent members of Thule also included Rudolf Hess.
Fritz Thyssen, who Harriman visited in 1922, reports that it was
Hess who introduced him to Adolf Hitler. Thyssen too, thought
Hitler would be the savior of Germany (30). Like the Bonesmen,
Thyssen believed that the New World Order would be ruled by the
kings of banking and commerce.
79

THE BANKING BROTERHOOD

Thyssen and Harriman agreed to establish a banking asso-
ciation, and two years later, in 1924 the W.A. Harriman Co., estab-
lished an international investment firm, “Union Banking Corpora-
tion,” which was in business with the Thyssens (31). Bert Walker’s
son, George Herbert Walker, was made president (24).
As detailed by Webster G. Tarpley & Anton Chaitkin in their
superbly documented book, George Bush: The Unauthorized Bi-
ography, “ by personal agreement between Averell Harriman and
Fritz Thyssen in 1922... the Union Banking Corporation has since
its inception handled funds chiefly supplied to it through the Dutch
bank by the Thyssen interests for American investment.... transfer-
ring funds back and forth between New York and the Thyssen in-
terests.”
The Union Banking Corporation and the Thyssen bank also
acted as Nazi fronts and served to launder funds for Thyssen and
the Nazis—money and funds that could be used to buy guns, arms,
favorable publicity, and dozens of U.S. senators, congressman, and
newspaper editors (12).
“Prescott Bush became vice president of W.A. Harriman &
Co. in 1926. That same year, a friend of Harriman and Bush set up
a giant new organization for their client Fritz Thyssen, prime spon-
sor of politician Adolf Hitler. The new German Steel Trust,
Germany’s largest industrial corporation, was organized in 1926
by Wall Street banker Clarence Dillon. Dillon was an old comrade
of Prescott Bush’s father Sam Bush” (24).
Thyssen went into business with Harriman for the same rea-
sons he went into business with Hitler, to increase his wealth and
power. It is unlikely that Thyssen did not inform Harriman of his
intention of helping Hitler come to power. Indeed, Fritz Thyssen
was Adolf Hitler’s primary financial backer and had been provid-
ing considerable financial support to Hitler and the Nazis, since
1923 (30). At their first meeting, Thyssen gave the new “German
Messiah,” $25,000. At the same time, Thyssen and Harriman were
also making big plans, some of which were dependent on Hitler
coming to power.
As Thyssen explained (30): “We were at the worst time of
the inflation. In Berlin the government was in distress. It was ru-
80
ined financially. Authority was crumbling. In Saxony a communist

government had been formed and the Red terror, organized by Max
Hoelz, reigned through the countryside. The German Reich ... was
now about to crumble.”
Thyssen states that it was General Erich Ludendorff who first
told him of Hitler and that Hess made the introductions. In 1923,
General Erich Ludendorff was also the chief patron of Hitler’s SA—
which, because it had been outlawed by the German government,
had been renamed “Frontbann” (6). The SA (“Frontbann”) was a
terrorist organization, which counted among its members, Heinrich
Himmler.
Thyssen admits that he was mesmerized by Hitler (30). “I
realized his orator gifts and his ability to lead the masses. What
impressed me most however was the order that reigned over his
meetings, the almost military discipline of his followers.”
In 1924, after his meetings with Hitler, Fritz Thyssen sent
Hendrick J. Kouwenhoven, the managing director of his bank, to
meet with the Harriman-Walker clique. It was after that meeting
that the Union Banking Corporation was established.
In 1926 George Walker made his son-in-law Prescott Bush,
vice-president of Harriman & Co. and president of Union Banking
(24). The Thyssen banking relationship was expanded to include
partnerships in the new German Steel Trust, Germany’s largest in-
dustrial corporation, which was also headed by Fritz Thyssen, Adolf
Hitler’s primary financial backer.
According to the United States Government, Prescott Bush’s
Union Banking Corporation (which he directed) was working as a
front for the “Thyssen family” of “Germany... nationals ... of a
designated enemy country” (31).
As summed up by John Loftus, former U.S. Department of
Justice Nazi War Crimes prosecutor, and the President of the Florida
Holocaust Museum: “Thyssen (and the Nazi Party) obtained” his
“early financing from Brown Brothers Harriman, and its affiliate,
the Union Banking Corporation. Union Bank, in turn, was the Bush
family’s holding company for a number of other entities, including
the Holland American Trading Company. The Bush’s Union Bank
bought the same corporate stock that the Thyssens were selling as
part of their Nazi money laundering.”
81
America Betrayed
These Nazi-front companies, “Brown Brothers, Harriman” and

“Union Banking Corporation,” were controlled almost entirely by
men who belonged to the American chapter of “Skull and Bones”
(32).
Prescott Bush and associates, and Standard Oil, also provided
loans, executive expertise, and petroleum-related products to IG
Farben (12). IG Farben used that expertise to develop poison gas
and petroleum to drive the Nazi war machine, and to run its slave
labor and death-camps, the most notorious of which was Auschwitz
where 83,000 people worked as slaves.
It is estimated that in the concentration camps alone, Himmler’s
SS, worked to death and killed over 10 million men and women (6).
A favored method of killing was using a special gas developed by
IG Farben.
As detailed in chapter 2, Prescott Bush and Harriman were
also in business with several other leading Nazis, such as Friedrich
Flick who later became Hitler’s minister of the Interior, as well as
IG. Farben, the company that developed the poison gas to kill Rus-
sians, gypsies, and Jews. Like Harriman and Bush, Flick was a mem-
ber of The Order (6). The Flick-Harriman partnership was managed
by Prescott Bush (see chapter 2).
According to a U.S. government brief presented in 1946 at the
Nuremberg war crimes tribunal, industrialist Friedrich Flick, was “a
leading financial contributor to the Nazi Party from 1932 on and a
member of the Circle of Friends of Himmler who contributed large
sums to the Nazi SS.”
The “Circle of Friends” is also known as the “Friends of the
Reichsfuhrer SS.” The Hamburg-Amerika line, which was directed
by Prescott Bush, was also counted among the Friends of the
Reichsfuhrer SS (6)—also known as “The Order” and the “Brother-
hood of Death.”
Frick joined this most secretive and powerful of societies in
1932. By contrast, Prescott Bush and the Harriman brothers (W.A.
and E.R) joined the American chapter of The Order, in 1917, 1913,
and 1917, respectively, long before Hitler had taken the first steps on
his long road to power. They were all part of the same brotherhood,
however. Indeed, be it the Thule Society, the SS, or the American
version of “The Order,” all sprouted from the same German roots.
82

The evil, diabolic symbolism of Skull and Bones is designed
to stir feelings of terror and to warn of death which is why it ap-
pears on bottles of poison and has been the symbol of choice for
pirates and death squads. It is precisely because it is designed to
induce terror that the symbol of the death head became the talis-
man worn on the black uniforms of Adolf Hitler’s Nazi elite: The
Order—the dreaded SS, the Brotherhood of Death.
The Bonesman of Yale shared not just the symbolism of the
Skull and Bones with the SS Nazi elite, but practiced many of the
same exact initiation rituals and recruited their elite members from
the same strata of society.
Like the Bonesmen of Yale, the Nazi SS recruited its mem-
bers from the upper echelons of society, i.e. the blue bloods, bank-
ers, and aristocrats. As detailed by Heinz Hohns (6), “the first ar-
rivals were from the aristocracy. Even before the Nazi seizure of
power certain great names had been added to the SS list” including
Grand Dukes, Counts, and Princes. However, “in spring 1933 came
a further infusion of blue blood. Many of the senior SS posts were
occupied by the nobility... and the ruling class elite. The primary
requirements in the SS, were money and officer material, and they
could come only from one source—the old-established ruling class
elite—the nobility, the world of commerce and the financiers...
German’s captains of industry.”
There were, however, different ranks within the SS. Those
who were to belong to the highest ranks underwent an initiation
ceremony similar to that of the Order of Skull and Bones at Yale.
As detailed in Heinz Hohn’s, The Order of the Death’s Head
(6), initiates into the SS underwent an occult-like quasi-religious
midnight ceremony involving oath-taking, question and answer
confessions, and prayer-like sessions, all of which were designed
to impress upon the initiate that he was able to become a “knight”
and a member of a secret brotherhood.
The ceremony took place at midnight, in a castle, beneath
the dining hall where there lay “a stone crypt” and “the realm of
the dead” (6). “A flight of steps in the middle of the crypt led down
into a well-like cavity; in the centre of the cavity were twelve stone
pedestals.” Bones and relics, including the skull and skeleton of
83
America Betrayed
noble men and kings were also kept within the “holy of holies”
including the bones of “King Heinrich.”
Initiates would thus commune with the spirits of the dead,
who might appear and even speak. The initiate into the SS, by un-
dergoing this spiritual journey, would also be reborn, as a knight,
and a member of the secret order (6).
Likewise, we are informed that initiates into Yale’s The Or-
der, were required to undergo an array of “exotic and occult” “bond-
ing rituals” including a quasi-religious midnight ceremony which
involved question and answer confessions that took place while
the initiate lay in a coffin (17,29).
The ceremony took place in castle, at midnight, in “the tomb.”
As explained by Ron Rosenbaum (29) while lying in the “cof-
fin” the initiates goes “off on a symbolic journey through the un-
derworld to rebirth, which takes place in Room Number 322. There,
the Order clothes the newborn knight in its own special garments,
implying that, henceforth, he will tailor himself to the Order’s mis-
sion” (p. 89, 148).
The Castle walls of Himmler’s SS headquarters, were heavily
decorated with Nazi symbols and regalia.
Likewise, based on several independent reports by those who
visited the Skull and Bones’ Yale Castle—what Bones initiates
call “the Tomb”—some of the walls and rooms are covered with
Nazi symbols and regalia, including swastikas, and “SS macho Nazi
iconography.” One visitor described a room with “a little Nazi shrine
inside” (17,18).
In yet another room of the Order of Skull and Bones, one
visitor observed “mantelpieces decorated with loads of skulls.”
She and others have been told “that in order to prove their mettle
and perhaps to bond them in mutual guilt over participation in an
illicit act, each class of 15 new initiates to Skull and Bones are
required to dig up the skull of a famous person and bring it to the
Tomb to be enshrined in its skull collection” (17,18).
Like the SS, The Order of Skull and Bones is also known as
the Brotherhood of Death. And we are told, initiates into the SS
and The Order of Skull and Bones, are required to say the words:
“It is an honor...”
When George W. Bush was asked, “Did you have any qualms,
84
say, about joining an elite secret club like Bones?” Bush replied, “I
was honored” (33).
The identical symbolism and use of similar language is not
just coincidence. In fact, Prescott Bush and several of his fellow
Bonesmen, felt such an affinity with Nazi terrorist ideals, that they
helped arm Hitler’s SS and the Nazi terrorist war machine.
However, Bush and his partners in banking and oil, did not
link up with Hitler and his SS just because of shared ideology but
because of money, oil, and an unquenchable thirst for power.
THE OIL BROTHERHOOD

As the 1932 presidential elections began, Hitler and the Nazi
party were almost broke. They were desperate for funds. And then,
after meeting with the captains of industry, Hitler was suddenly
flush with cash.
According to Hitler’s vice-Chancellor, Franz von Papen (34),
“the most documented account of the National Socialists’ sudden
acquisition of funds was contained in a book published in Holland
in 1933.” It was published “by the old established Amsterdam pub-
lishing house of Van Holkema & Warendorf, called De Geldbronnen
van Het Nationaal-Socialisme (Drie Gesprekken Met Hitler) un-
der the name “Sidney Warburg.”
In that book, “The Financial Sources of National Socialism”
it is claimed that Hitler’s rise to power was aided directly by Wall
Street bankers, industrialists, and oil companies, including Stan-
dard Oil, and John D. Rockefeller, who contributed $32,000,000
between the years 1929 to 1932.
In the opening paragraphs, the author, who calls himself
“Sydney Warburg” states that: “There are moments when I want to
turn away from a world of such intrigue, trickery, swindling and
tampering with the stock exchange .... Do you know what I can
never understand? How it is possible that people of good and hon-
est character — for which I have ample proof — participate in
swindling and fraud, knowing full well that it will affect thousands.”
The New York Times (11/24/1933), was quick to dismiss the
book, but in so doing, revealed its own Nazi sympathies: “Hoax on
Nazis Feared.”
Feared?
85
America Betrayed
The New York Times, “feared” that not only the Nazis, but
the publishers were “victims of a hoax.”
The New York Times was apparently a fan of Hitler, for prior
to 1933, and during the same time Rockefeller and Standard Oil
were contributing millions of dollars, it ran several quite positive
stories about Adolf Hitler in 1929, 1930, and 1931 (35) as did the
Hearst publishing empire (15).
The author of this “feared hoax” was “Sydney Warburg.”
However, after the book’s publication, not only the New York Times
but the Warburg family, which included Max Warburg, a director
of IG Farben in Germany, and Paul Warburg a director of Ameri-
can IG. Farben, denounced the book. Of course, we also know
that IG. Farben was a major financial supporter of Hitler, and we
know the Standard Oil and the Bush-Harriman clique were in busi-
ness with IG Farben (36). So, the Warburg denunciation cannot be
taken completely seriously.
Nevertheless, James Warburg demanded that the book be
destroyed because it contains “a mass of libelous material against
various members of my family and against a number of prominent
banking houses and individuals in New York.” However, Warburg
then goes on to say, “I have never to this day seen a copy of the
book” (37).
Within days of the books publication, and although those
who denounced it have never seen a copy it disappeared from circu-
lation and almost all copies were quickly destroyed (36).
As detailed in Antony C. Sutton’s well documented book,
Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler (36), the first section of the book
explains that in 1929, American banks and investors were concerned
that the demands by France on German war reparations, were eat-
ing into their own profits. Thus, these American business men called
a meeting in June 1929 to discuss the problem and what might be
done. Those in attendance included “members of the Federal Re-
serve Bank and leading American bankers” including the “direc-
tors of Guaranty Trust Company, the Presidents of the Federal Re-
serve Banks, in addition to five independent bankers, young
Rockefeller, and Glean from Royal Dutch Shell. Rockefeller” and
“Carter” of Guaranty Trust Company, “dominated the proceedings.
The others listened and nodded their heads.”
86
Antony Sutton, then goes on to report that according to

Warburg’s book, “The general consensus at the bankers’ meeting
was that the only way to free Germany from French financial
clutches was by revolution, either Communist or German Nation-
alist.”
Rockefeller argued that the money should go to Hitler. After
some negotiation, 10 million dollars was transferred to the Nazis.
During subsequent meetings, it was explained that Hitler’s
storm troopers and SS, were insufficiently equipped and badly
needed machine guns, revolvers, and carbines. Hitler explained that
he had two plans for takeover in Germany: (a) revolution (b) legal
takeover plan. Hitler is quoted as saying, “revolution costs five
hundred million marks. Legal takeover costs two hundred million
marks — what will your bankers decide?”
A legal takeover thus offered the best deal.
Warburg passed these demands to Rockefeller and Guaranty
Trust and received the following answer in reply:
“Suggested amounts are out of the question. We don’t want
to and cannot. Explain to man that such a transfer to Europe will
shatter financial market. Absolutely unknown on international ter-
ritory. Expect long report, before decision is made. Stay there.
Continue investigation. Persuade man of impossible demands. Don’t
forget to include in report own opinion of possibilities for future of
man.”
After further negotiations, Rockefeller and the American
banking and oil interests offered an additional $15 million which
would help finance the legal takeover. Revolution would be too
expensive and destructive.
In the months after Hitler took power, in 1933, Warburg de-
livered yet another payment from Rockefeller and Carter and their
associates in banking, industry, and oil, i.e. 7 million dollars (37).
Although the New York Times, and the directors of IG
Farben—a company that assisted in the murder of millions of men,
women, and children—have decried this cruel “hoax” which puts
the Nazis, Rockefeller, Standard Oil, and the bankers at Guaranty
in such a bad light, we do know that these men and these compa-
nies were in business with the Nazis (13). And we know that Emil
Helfferich, chairman of the Bush-Harriman company, Hamburg-
87
America Betrayed
Amerika, was also chairman of Standard Oil’s German subsidiar-

ies. Emil Helfferich frequently wrote out checks to Heinrich
Himmler payable on a special Standard Oil account. According to
U.S. intelligence documents reviewed by author Anthony Sutton
(36), Helfferich was still making these payments to the S.S. in 1944
—the same S.S. which was rounding up, enslaving, and supervis-
ing the mass murder of Russians, Jews, Gypsies, Poles, etc., at IG
Farben’s death camps.
THE STANDARD OIL NAZIS

“In two years 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.” -Commercial Attaché,
U.S. Embassy in Berlin, Germany, January 1933.
Standard Oil also provided expertise to IG. Farben including
the know how to make leaded gasoline. As detailed in an IG Farben
memo: “Since the beginning of the war we have been in a position
to produce lead tetraethyl solely because, a short time before the
outbreak of the war, the Americans had established plants for us
ready for production and supplied us with all available experience.
In this manner we did not need to perform the difficult work of
development because we could start production right away on the
basis of all the experience that the Americans had for years.”
In another IG Farben memo Standard Oil’s assistance in pro-
curing $20 million worth of aviation fuel and lubricants is acknowl-
edged:
“As a further remarkable example of advantageous effect for
us of the contract between IG and Standard Oil, the following should
be mentioned: in the years 1934 / 1935 our government had the
greatest interest in gathering from abroad a stock of especially valu-
able mineral oil products (in particular, aviation gasoline and avia-
tion lubricating oil), and holding it in reserve to an amount ap-
proximately equal to 20 million dollars at market value. The Ger-
man Government asked IG if it were not possible, on the basis o
fits friendly relations with Standard Oil, to buy this amount in
Farben’s name; actually, however, as trustee of the German Gov-
ernment. The fact that we actually succeeded by means of the most
difficult negotiations in buying the quantity desired by our govern-
88
ment from the American Standard Oil Company and the Dutch —
English Royal — Dutch — Shell group and in transporting it to
Germany, was made possible only through the aid of the Standard
Oil Co.”
Standard oil, Rockefeller, and the Bush-Harriman clique, not
only provided financial and technological assistance to Hitler, but
assisted his war effort and terror campaign to the detriment of the
United States (13,36,38).
It is because of this collaboration, that the Bush-Harriman-
Walker properties were seized by the U.S. government for viola-
tion of the Trading with the Enemy Act (31).
Charges of “criminal conspiracy with the enemy” were also
filed against Standard Oil. However, when evidence of collusion
was presented by Thurman Arnold, chief of the Antitrust Division
of the U.S. government, it was pointed out by Standard that it was
also selling oil and fuel to the U.S. Army, Navy, and Air Force. If
Standard Oil were punished, America might lose a major share of
its oil supply, and might lose the war.
Standard Oil not only threatened the government of the United
States, but it had already orchestrated a major oil and gasoline short-
age during the Summer of 1941. These artificial shortages were
also investigated by the United States Congress.
As summarized by the U.S. National Archives, a “Special
Committee to Investigate Gasoline and Fuel-Oil Shortages” com-
menced hearings on August 28, 1941. “18.89 Fear of impending
gasoline scarcity along the Atlantic seaboard gripped the Ameri-
can public during the summer of 1941. Members of Congress were
deluged with letters and telegrams from concerned constituents. In
August... authorities... sought to quiet public concern. These state-
ments failed to stop the hoarding of gasoline and the deterioration
of public confidence.”
“18.90 In response to the confusing situation, the Senate es-
tablished the Special Committee to Investigate Gasoline and Fuel-
Oil Shortages (78A-F31) on August 28, 1941. The committee,
chaired by Francis T. Maloney of Connecticut, was to investigate
the shortage of fuel in the various States, the methods of delivery,
and the means to ensure an adequate supply for national defense
without undue hardship to the private sector.... A major focus of
89
America Betrayed
the committee was the petroleum distribution system.”

Recalling the terrible gas shortages which were due to a
problem in the “petroleum distribution system” the government
backed down and Rockefeller and Standard oil escaped punish-
ment. The charges of “criminal conspiracy with the enemy” were
dropped. However, Standard Oil did not get off the hook com-
pletely. Standard oil agreed to release its patents and pay a modest
fine.
Thurman Arnold did not let the matter drop, however. He,
along with Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes, provided the
documents detailing the collusion between Standard Oil and IG
Farben, to Senator Harry Truman, chairman of the Senate Special
Committee Investigating the National Defense Program. There fol-
lowed a series of hearings in March 1942, “In order to disclose the
truth about Standard” (13, 39).
After the hearing, the committee chairman, Harry S. Truman,
characterized the arrangements between Standard oil and IG Farben
as “treasonable.”
Again, however, the entire matter was dropped. Standard Oil
again threatened to disrupt the U.S. war effort.
According to Mark Aarons and John Loftus (The Secret War
Against the Jews), “There was a reason for Rockefeller’s escape:
blackmail. According to the former intelligence officers we inter-
viewed on this point, the blackmail was simple and powerful: The
Dulles brothers (John Foster, later Secretary of State, and Allen,
later director of the CIA) had one of their clients threaten to inter-
rupt the U.S. oil supply during wartime. Standard executives made
it clear that the entire U.S. war effort was fueled by their oil and it
could be stopped. . . . The American government had no choice but
to go along if it wanted to win the war” (39).
In May of 1942, another aspect of the treasonable relation-
ship maintained between Standard Oil and IG Farben was brought
up during testimony before a Patents Committee hearings, chaired
by Senator Homer T. Bone. Even after Hitler declared war on the
United States, Rockefeller and thus Standard Oil was collaborat-
ing with Nazi Germany and seeking to prevent the U.S. from manu-
facturing explosives and synthetic rubber (40,41,42).
Following the conclusion of the war, Standard Oil’s treason-
90
able behavior was again brought to light by the United States Con-
gress. During congressional hearings conducted before the Truman,
Bone, and Kilgore Committees, it was concluded that “Standard
Oil” had “seriously imperiled the war preparations of the United
States” and that Standard Oil had colluded with IG Farben, to pre-
vent the United States from gaining access to war-related tech-
nologies such as the creation of “synthetic rubber.”
As noted, although the most serious charges against Stan-
dard Oil were dropped, the U.S. government did seize a number of
its patents, under the Trading with the Enemy Act.
However, in July of 1944, Standard Oil, filed a lawsuit against
the U.S. government, contesting the seizure of its patents. In No-
vember of 1945, Judge Charles E. Wyzanski ruled that the govern-
ment had been entitled to seize the patents.
Standard Oil appealed. On September 22, 1947, Judge
Charles Clark rejected the appeal, concluding that “Standard Oil
can be considered an enemy national in view of its relationships
with IG. Farben after the United States and Germany had become
active enemies” (40).
Rockefeller, of course, was a member of the Brotherhood.
Rockefeller was also in business with other Nazi collaborators, in-
cluding Prescott Bush and the Harrimans.
THE OIL BROTHERHOOD

From 1927 to 1941, the future director of the CIA, Allen
Dulles worked as lawyer and international finance specialist for
Sullivan & Cromwell, a Wall Street law firm in New York. Dulles
performed work for Bush, Harriman, and Rockefeller in setting up
business relationships with the Nazis and with top Nazi industrial-
ists, and served as legal counsel for Standard Oil and the Nazi’s IG
Farben, who had partnered with the Rockefellers (43).
Allen Dulles played a pivotal role in promoting U.S.-Nazi
corporate relations. The Nazis considered Allen Dulles to be “the
most influential White House man in Europe” and Dulles had nu-
merous meetings with top ranking members of the SS (6).
In fact both Dulles brothers (John Foster, later Secretary of
State, and Allen, later director of the CIA) represented the interests
of Bush, Harriman, Rockefeller, and other Nazi collaborators prior
91
America Betrayed
to, during and after the ending of the second world war. Whereas
Allen served as a spymaster, lawyer and deal maker who brought
over a thousand high ranking Nazis into the CIA and found jobs
for them in the Republican party and corporate America (43,44),
John Foster Dulles was on the board of IG Farben who had
partnered with Standard Oil (43).
As was the case with Guaranty Trust, which provided loans
to the Nazis and to the Soviet Union, Rockefeller’s Standard Oil
was also in business with Hitler’s nemesis: the Soviet Union. By
doing business with both fascist regimes, this guaranteed that re-
gardless of who won the war, Standard Oil would profit. The Dulles’
brothers are said to have played a major role in ironing out the
Soviet deal.
In 1938, oil was discovered in Saudi Arabia. The king of
Saudi Arabia, Ibn Saud, was a supporter of Adolf Hitler. Dulles,
acting as a representative of Standard Oil (as well as IG Farben)
also played a major role in negotiating and gaining major conces-
sions from Ibn Saud.
As Saudi Prince Bandar explained to PBS Frontline (45):
“America has never been a colonizing power as far as we were
concerned. Our relationship with America... started in the 1930s.
And when the Americans came to Saudi Arabia, they didn’t come
as an invader. They came actually as a private sector, trying to help
us find oil. They found the oil for us, and they’ve been our friends
ever since.”
The result of these discoveries and negotiations was a joint
venture between Standard Oil, Texaco, and Mobil, and the forma-
tion of the Arabian-American Oil Company (ARAMCO). King Ibn
Saud and his family were promised millions in return, whereas the
Arabian people received basically nothing (46).
By 1944, Standard Oil had twice artificially created oil short-
ages as a means of gaining leverage over the U.S. government.
Based on the discoveries made in Saudi Arabia, the Standard oil-
led cartel successfully lobbied the U.S. Senate, which in turn pro-
posed that the U.S. government should finance the construction of
oil pipelines and oil refineries so as to meet future energy needs.
With the assistance of the Dulles brothers, this proposal soon be-
came a program to assist Standard oil and ARAMCO in the Per-
92
sian Gulf.
In February and March of 1944, the “Special Committee In-
vestigating Petroleum Resources” began hammering out the de-
tails. As summarized by the United States National Archives: “18.94
In February 1944, the Petroleum Administrator for War, Secretary
of Interior Harold Ickes, announced that the Arabian-American Oil
Co. would construct a refinery to produce petroleum war products
for the Allied Nations, and that the U.S. Government would con-
struct a petroleum pipeline from the Persian Gulf area to the east-
ern shore of the Mediterranean and would obtain a crude oil petro-
leum reserve of one billion barrels in the Gulf area.” Because of
interests pertaining to “national welfare and security” this Special
Committee also agreed to “the disposal of Government-owned pipe-
lines and refineries as surplus properties, tidelands oil, and other
issues related to petroleum supplies.”
In other words, after twice being held hostage by Standard
Oil, the U.S. government agreed to give “Government-owned pipe-
lines and refineries” to this Standard oil-led cartel, and to fund the
creation of new pipelines and refineries in Saudi Arabia.
The U.S. government and the oil cartel headed by Standard
Oil, were now in business with the “royal family” of Ibn Saud.
Saud and his family began receiving millions of dollars in pay-
ments as their reward for selling out so cheaply (46).
Roosevelt, it is said, had been considering bringing charges
of treason against Dulles, Bush, and Rockefeller following the con-
clusion of the second world war. However, Roosevelt’s death put a
stop to that. Not only did these traitors get off scott free, but the
Dulles brothers also received handsome rewards, Allen becoming
the first director the CIA, and John, the Secretary of State.
Nevertheless, although faded by time, and despite the pur-
poseful destruction of incriminating records, the facts remain the
same: Prescott Bush, the Harrimans, Rockefellers, the Dulles broth-
ers, and Ibn Saud, had partnered with a terrorist Nazi regime at war
with the United States. The Saudi royal family, the Bush family,
the Harrimans, Rockefellers, American banks, American Oil, and
America’s political elite, went into business with Nazi terrorists
who murdered tens of millions of innocent, men, women, and chil-
dren, including tens of thousands of Americans. They partnered
93
America Betrayed
with a terrorist regime that was at war with America for three inter-
related reasons: money, oil, and power.
Decades later, after Bush was elected vice-president and then
President, he, the Saudi royal family, and the CIA, would provide
tens of millions of dollars in support of yet another terrorist orga-
nization that would declare war with the United States, this one
ostensibly headed by Saudi multi-millionaire, Osama bin Laden.
As we shall see, doing business with gangsters, thugs, and
terrorists who preach death to America, and who kill Americans, is
a Bush family tradition (4,47).

began work on a line-by-line analysis of Hegel’s “Philosophy of Right”
and introduced a synthesis which he described as “dialectical material-

Engels published The Communist Manifesto, in which he applied Hegel’s
ideas of thesis and anti-thesis to government and capitalism to arrive at
the synthesis of a “conflict-free society;”i.e., communism. Marx believed
his idea of a communist society was the fulfillment of Hegel’s ideal, which,
according to Marx and Engle, “had been turned upside down on its head.”
Marx believed he had put the Hegelian Idea right side up. In Marxist
communism, instead of just a few individuals owning all the means of
94
production, and thus all the wealth, all the people would own their own
means of production and would share equally in its rewards. “Hegel- in

shares of Guaranty Trust to J.P. Morgan which thus acquired a control-
ling interest. The Harriman-Walker-Bush and Rockefeller banking clique
had their eye on the oil-rich Caspian basin and the Caucuses. With these
loans, the Soviet Union was able to purchase oil-related services from
companies controlled by this same clique, including Rockefellers Stan-
dard Oil which built oil refineries which were financed by the loans pro-
vided by Harriman-Bush-Rockefeller banks.

York Times reported only one brief item on Adolf Hitler. In 1931 it re-
peatedly ran articles on Hitler most of which presented him in a favorable
light.

York, 8/15/1949. However, there is also evidence that the Warburgs were
also enthusiastic supporters of Hitler. In a letter dated, March 27, 1933,
Max Warburg states that “For the last few years business was consider-
ably better than we had anticipated, but a reaction is making itself felt for
some months. We are actually suffering also under the very active propa-
ganda against Germany, caused by some unpleasant circumstances. These
occurrences were the natural consequence of the very excited election
campaign, but were extraordinarily exaggerated in the foreign press. The
Government is firmly resolved to maintain public peace and order in Ger-
many, and I feel perfectly convinced in this respect that there is no cause
for any alarm whatsoever.” On March 29, 1933, Max’s son, Erich Warburg,
sent a cable to his cousin Frederick M. Warburg, a director of the Harriman
railroad system; “use all your influence ‘’ to stop all anti-Nazi activity in
America, including “atrocity news and unfriendly propaganda in foreign
press, mass meetings, etc.” On March 31, 1933, the American-Jewish
Committee, issued a statement asking that “no American boycott against
Germany be encouraged.” See John L. Spivak “Wall Street’s Fascist Con-
spiracy,” New Masses, January 29-February 5, 1934.

Jacobs, Jr., of the Attorney General’s department, testified that Standard
had interfered with the American explosives industry by blocking the use
of a method of producing synthetic ammonia. As a result of its deals with
Farben, the United States had been unable to use this vital process even
after Pearl Harbor. Also, the United States had been restricted in tech-
niques of producing hydrogen from natural gas and from obtaining
paraflow, a product used for airplane lubrication at high altitudes.” In
addition, “Texas oil operator C.R. Starnes appeared to testify that Stan-
dard had blocked him at every turn in his efforts to produce synthetic
rubber after Pearl Harbor.” This testimony was followed by that of “John
R. Jacobs” who “reappeared in an Army private’s uniform (he had been
inducted the day before) to bring up another disagreeable matter: Stan-
dard had also, in league with Farben, restricted production of methanol,
a wood alcohol that was sometimes used as motor fuel.”
