Commentaries for Edwin Black
American Corporate Complicity Created Undeniable Nazi Nexus

Adolf Hitler was completely responsible for the Holocaust. But Hitler had help.

When Nazis waged war against an imaginary generation-to-generation Jewish conspiracy… when Nazis created extermination plans to help ensure their master race would rule the world… when the German military smashed across Europe in Blitz trucks… when Mengele undertook heinous medical experiments on twins in Auschwitz… when the Reich identified Jews everywhere in Europe and then systematically pauperized and destroyed them… when all these terrible things were done, the shape and scope of the horror was pivotally determined by major American industrial giants.

Now the dots can be connected. They create an undeniable Nazi nexus between iconic American corporations and the Holocaust.

Henry Ford, acting through the Ford Motor Company, published the fake Protocols of the Elders of Zion, which quickly became the bible of German anti-Semites, the Nazi party, and greatly influenced Adolf Hitler. In Mein Kampf, Hitler wrote, “The whole existence of this people is based on a continuous lie [as] shown incomparably by the Protocols of the Elders of Zion…

The Carnegie Institution propagated the American race science of eugenics which idealized a blond, blue-eyed superior race. Carnegie scientists believed 90 percent of humanity was to be eliminated using various methods including identification, asset seizure, marriage prohibition or nullification, forced surgical sterilization, segregation, and gas chambers. The Carnegie Institution spent millions to propagate American eugenic theories in post-WWI Germany, financing race science programs in universities and institutions.

While in prison, Hitler closely studied American eugenics. He even wrote a fan letter to American eugenic leader Madison Grant, calling his writing “my bible.” Der Führer exchanged the American term “Nordic” for the Nazi term “Aryan,” then medicalized his anti-Semitism and nationalism to conceptualize the blond, blue-eyed Master Race he deified in Mein Kampf.

The Rockefeller Foundation acted as a full partner with Carnegie in establishing eugenics in Germany. Millions of Depression-era dollars were transmitted by Rockefeller to Hitler’s most virulent anti-Semitic doctors. Rockefeller focused funded Hitler’s chief raceologist, Otmar Verschuer, and his twin experimentation programs. Verschuer had an assistant, Josef Mengele. By the time Rockefeller funding stopped, Mengele had transferred into Auschwitz to continue the twin research, but now in a monstrous fashion, sending precise clinical reports weekly to Verschuer.

General Motors president Alfred Sloan committed the Detroit company and its German division, Opel, to motorizing a substantially horse-drawn Germany, preparing it for war. Sloan and GM converted the Reich into a motorized powerhouse and knowingly prepared the Wehrmacht to wage war in Europe. GM built the Blitz truck for the Blitzkrieg and even moved spare parts to the Polish border days before the invasion to facilitate the Blitzkrieg. Using a charade of interlocking boards and executive committees, Sloan kept GM’s role secret as long as possible.

IBM, inventor of the Hollerith punch card, precursor to the modern computer, enjoyed a monopoly on information technology. Under its president, Thomas Watson, IBM reached out to Hitler, offering to organize and systemize any solution the Reich desired.

With IBM as a partner, the Hitler regime was able to automate and accelerate all six phases of the Holocaust: identification, exclusion, confiscation, ghettoization, deportation, and extermination. IBM asked the Hitler regime what result was desired. Then company engineers devised custom-tailored punch card systems to deliver those results. IBM customer sites were in every concentration camp, and machines were serviced regularly by IBM on site.

Conscious involvement of American corporations ensured the speed, shape and dimension of the Holocaust as we know it. The astronomical scope could never have been achieved without this involvement. American corporate collaborators have tried to obscure the details of their collusion using corporate misinformation, financial contributions, and bought-and-paid-for historians. But in this era when people no longer believe big corporations, the dots can now be fully connected to unveil the outlines of an indispensible Nazi nexus. The words “never again” must resound not just among the victims, but within the boardrooms of corporate perpetrators.

MONTHLY EMPHASIS










May is -
Remember Month
at Changing Worldviews

Whether it's Mothers or Veterans who have given their lives in the cause of freedom, it's the month to remember the heroes and heroines in our lives, and in the life of our nation. Remembering is to give honor, and to give honor is to remember the sacrifices of those who have invested their lives in our well-being. So we encourage everyone to make a special effort this month to do more than just think about, but do something that gives honor to those who deserve it. It's also a month to remember history, for it is absolutely true, that "those who forget history are doomed to repeat it." History is more than just some record of the past, it has great value for contemporary living. So we also encourange everyone to read some history this month (and listen to our shows that connect the dots between history and current events), and begin making a list of those important parts of history you want to grow in your knowledge of, and then make a concerted effort to (re)educate yourself on them and mark them off your list. It's also a good month to begin to write down the significant parts of your history for your posterity to read some day. Don't forget, remember!
