37. You're right. Thanks and please allow me to spell it out for you…
Going from the top:



Eleanor and Igor Orlov.

Supposedly a loyal NAZI brought to America, really Orlov was loyal to the Kremlin. Dulles and Co. loved what he had to say, despite knowing him as a "man with the soul of a sociopath." The poor woman with him is his wife, in whom he never totally confided.

Orlov’s birth name was Aleksandr Grigoryevich Kopatzky. He was a loyal Stalinist. He volunteered to serve the Kremlin as a double-agent against the NAZIs. He was ordered to fly over NAZI occupied land, shoot the pilot and crew in cold blood, and bail out. He did and was wounded by troops on the ground. He told the story that he wanted to defect from the Soviets. He even gave up the names of several lower Soviet agents who had previously penetrated the Nazis. These men were executed, but helped get Orlov accepted within the Gehlen spy network.



Adolf Eichmann. Nazi mass murderer, helped mechanize the deportation of Jews and others to concentration and death camps. He escaped justice after the surrender. The CIA knew his whereabouts in South America, but refused to divulge it, ostensibly to protect top officials in the new German government and to protect their spy operations against the Soviet Union.




U.S. President Ronald W. Reagan lays a wreath at a cemetery in Bitburg, Germany where members of the SS are buried. The SS was the military arm of the Nazi party, responsible for the deaths of millions.




The monkey on top of the globe is from John Heartfield, an anti-fascist artist who worked in 1930s Germany. Because of his opposition to Hitler, Heartfield changed his name from Helmut Hertzfeld. The artist also helped invent collage. What do you bet he’d be a wiz today, with Photoshop? I borrowed the original and added Smirkelgruber’s face.

Regarding the leap between the NAZIs and the Bush Family Evil Empire, this excellent overview from Carla Binion….



Nazis & Bush Family History: Government Investigated Bush Family's Financing Of Hitler

By Carla Binion OnlineJournal.com
December 22, 2001

This article on Nazis in the Republican party was originally published in Online Journal on 1/28/00. However, the following includes additional information regarding George H. W. Bush's father, Prescott, and his maternal grandfather, George Herbert (Bert) Walker, and the fact that the U. S. government investigated their financing of Adolf Hitler.

One book referenced here, Christopher Simpson's "Blowback," was praised by journalist Seymour Hersh as "the ultimate book about the worst kind of cold war thinking." Nora Levin, Director, Holocaust Archive, Gratz College, said "The full story of this country's shameful, cynical collaboration with Nazi criminals has not been told until now with the publication of Simpson's book." Congresswoman Elizabeth Holtzman said, 'Blowback' is a must read for anyone who wants to understand postwar policy on Nazi war criminals and the cold war."

In another Simpson book, "The Splendid Blonde Beast," the author wrote about George H. W. Bush's father, Prescott, and his maternal grandfather, George Herbert Walker. Both Bert Walker and Prescott Bush were powerful financial supporters of Adolf Hitler.

Walker was president of Union Banking Corporation, a firm that traded with Germany and helped German industrialists consolidate Hitler's political power. Simpson says Union Banking became a Nazi money-laundering machine.

Walker helped take over North American operations of Hamburg-Amerika Line, a shipping line and cover for I. G. Farben's Nazi espionage unit in the U. S. Hamburg-Amerika smuggled in German agents, and brought in money for bribing American politicians to support Hitler. A 1934 congressional investigation showed Hamburg-Amerika subsidized Nazi propaganda efforts in the U. S.

George H. W. Bush's father, Prescott, was a board member of Union Banking and a senior partner in a Union Banking affiliate,Äîthe investment firm Brown Brothers, Harriman. The U. S. government investigated both Bert Walker and Prescott Bush, and under the Trading with the Enemy Act seized all shares of Union Banking, including shares held by Prescott Bush. The government held that "huge sections of Prescott Bush's empire had been operated on behalf of Nazi Germany and had greatly assisted the German war effort."
