Bush's appointees so far-pharmaceuticals

[Guest guest]

What's Hiding In GW's Cabinet? by Lederman

" I'm very good at delegating authority...I'll surround myself with

the best minds in America " . Exactly who are these, best minds in

America, and where is GW Bush getting them from?

There is a common thread connecting all of Bush's appointees so far-

pharmaceuticals, oil, Wall Street and the historical connection

between the CIA, major US corporations and Nazi Germany. If you've

studied the Bush family history in any depth you won't find many

surprises among his nominations.

O'Neill, the Bush nominee for Treasury Secretary, is the

chairman of Alcoa Aluminum, one of the nation's largest toxic

polluters. O'Neill owns 1.6 million shares of Alcoa, worth more than

$50 million. During WWII Alcoa negotiated a deal with the Nazis and

IG Farben to supply Germany's war machine rather than the US

military with aluminum. " If America loses this war, " said then

Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes on June 26, 1941, " it can

thank the Aluminum Corporation of America [ALCOA]. "

Alcoa is the producer of hundreds of millions of tons of fluoride.

This highly toxic byproduct of aluminum has been scientifically

linked in thousands of medical studies conducted since the 19th

century to cancer and other degenerative diseases. In the 1950's

Alcoa arranged to have it profitably added to our nation's drinking

water rather than disposed of as toxic waste. During WWII the Nazis

discovered that by adding fluoride to the drinking water in

concentration camps they could make prisoners far more submissive to

authority. .

Melquiades R. ez, designated Secretary for Housing and Urban

Development, is a Cuban refugee who established his political

reputation by preventing new housing from being built in

conservative Orange Co. Florida-claiming it was a quality of life

violation. As chair of Orange County, ez eliminated the

department of community affairs, a civil rights agency that was set

up to give poor people a voice in local government. It is probable

that ez received CIA indoctrination after he arrived in the US

at age 15 as part of a government airlift program of children whose

parents did not want them to grow up under the Castro regime.

NJ Governor Christie Whitman is the Bush designee for the

Environmental Protection Agency. Her massively polluted state hosts

some of the world's largest oil refineries and chemical

manufacturing plants. Environmental non-expert Whitman has said she

doubts that the giant ozone hole over the North Pole or global

warming are actually serious problems.

L. , the nominee for Commerce Secretary, is an insider

in the Texas " oil mafia " and is GW's closest friend and confidant.

He's also a close friend, confidant and contributor to one of

America's biggest recipients of government contacts, Halliburton's

Dick Cheney.

Rev. Floyd Flake, Dubya's nominee for Secretary of Education, was

the only prominent African American leader in NYC to endorse Bush

pal Rudy Giuliani, the racist NYC Mayor who has executed a seven

year long campaign of violence, harassment and false arrest aimed at

African Americans. Giuliani's most memorable quote on education was

a proposal to blow up the entire NYC Board of Education.

Last year, to his everlasting credit, Flake publicly denounced

Giuliani as a mental case. Like numerous GW Bush aides and advisors,

Rev. Flake is part of the CIA's Manhattan Institute which

masterminded Giuliani's entire social eugenics agenda. Among the

areas Flake is likely to focus on for Bush is turning public

education over to religious institutions and corporations.

Ann M. Veneman, Bush's appointee for secretary of agriculture, was

deputy secretary for agriculture under President Bush. She is

known as an advocate for letting corporations exploit public land

and for widespread distribution of foods containing genetically-

altered animal genes, viruses, self-contained insecticides and

bacteria. Bush has said he wants to open up Federal reserves,

national forests and other pristine areas of public land to oil

drilling, mining and road construction. Under Bush stewardship, we

could see corporations running frankenfood farms in Yosemite or

drilling for oil in the Grand Canyon.

Ashcroft, GW's choice for Attorney General, is a self-styled

moral crusader as strongly against abortion as he is enthusiastic

about the death penalty. He lost his Senate seat in the 2000

election to an opponent who died during the campaign. Last year,

Ashcroft received an honorary degree from Bob University and

is closely aligned with the Christian Coalition and Pat on.

Ashcroft is also an outspoken fan of Supreme Court Justice Clarence

. He is known among lobbyists as an advocate for drug

companies and the automotive industry and for preventing consumers

from suing HMO's.

E. s Jr., nominated as director of the Office of

Management and Budget was senior executive of the Eli Lilly drug

company-which Bush's father headed from 1977-79. s was also

previously the president of the arch-conservative think tank Hudson

Institute. s, who advocates strict enforcement of laws

against casual drug users, was arrested for marijuana possession in

1970.

Secretary of State designee Colin is a lifelong operative of

the CIA/military-industrial complex. While working for the Pentagon

he helped cover up the Mai Lai massacre, the contra/arms deal and

Gulf War Syndrome. 's fame derives from presiding over a war

in which US troops were used as guinea pigs for experimental

vaccines so that they could " safely " fight Bush's friend

Sadamn Hussein-who had been given the go ahead to attack Kuwait

after being supplied with chemical and biological weapons by the

Bush administration. Like many of GW's appointees of color,

proudly admits he owes his career in large part to affirmative

action while joining an administration that considers ending

affirmative action one of its topmost priorities.

Condolezza Rice, Bush's National Security advisor was formerly a

security advisor under President Bush and an aide to Colin

. She has the job of explaining the basic elements of foreign

policy to GW, about which Bush admits toknowing almost nothing. A

large part of her career was involved in administering the CIA's

foreign policy objectives. She serves on the board of Chevron Oil-

known as one of the African continents most violent human rights

abusers. A grateful Chevron recently named an oil tanker after her.

The emerging profile of the Bush administration-moderately

conservative and multi-racial-is a facade. To see their real agenda

one has to examine the administration's ideological source-the

Manhattan Institute. GW may cultivate the image of a plain-talkin'

good ole boy who prefers barbecuing to making policy, but virtually

every idea presented as central to his agenda comes from this elite

east coast institution.

A little background

MI (The Manhattan Institute) was started in 1978 by Casey,

one of the top intelligence operatives in US history. During WWII

Casey worked with OSS chief Donavan and Dulles to

bring top level Nazi officials to the US where they were recruited

into the newly-formed CIA, the military, government-connected

medical research institutions and the media. The stated rational for

importing Hitler's top intelligence operatives, social scientists

and propagandists to the US was that they would be employed in

fighting Communism-exactly what Hitler claimed he used them for. In

reality they were brought here to help establish fascism in America-

a goal which they are increasingly succeeding at.

Before WWII started Dulles was involved with GW's grandfather

Prescott Bush on Wall Street where, along with Herbert

(Prescott Bush's father-in-law) they operated banks and shipping

companies that were later declared by the US Congress to be fronts

for the Nazis. In 1942 shortly after the US entered WWII the assets

of these Wall Street companies were seized by the US government

under the Trading With The Enemy Act.

Dulles was the legal counsel for both Standard Oil and for Nazi

Germany's I.G. Farben-one of the world's largest industrial

powerhouses-which was co-owned by the Rockefeller family-the main

funders of the Manhattan Institute.

The US ambassador to Germany at the time had this to say about The

Rockefellers, the Bush's, the Mellons (owners of Alcoa) and the

other wealthy Americans who were backing Hitler and promoting

Eugenics, or scientific racism:

" A clique of U.S. industrialists is hell-bent to bring a fascist

state to supplant our democratic government and is working closely

with the fascist regime in Germany. I have had plenty of opportunity

in Berlin to witness how close some of our American ruling families

are to the Nazi regime. . .They extended aid to help Fascism occupy

the seat of power, and they are helping to keep it there. " -

Dodd, U.S. Ambassador to Germany, 1937.-Facts and Fascism, G

Seldes, p. 122 Also, Trading with the Enemy, Higham, p.167

When IG Farben was broken up after Germany lost the war its parts

became the top pharmaceutical companies in the world - BASF,

Hoechst, Bayer AG, Agfa-Gevaert and Cassella AG. Today these

companies, along with Pfizer and Eli Lilly-which former President

Bush headed from 1977-1979-are the largest manufacturers of

prescription and over the counter drugs sold in the U.S. Both the

Pfizer and Eli Lilly drug companies are sponsors of MI.

These oil, pharmaceutical and Wall Street investment banking elites

are the foundations of the Rockefeller and Bush dynasties and are

the real constituents of the new Bush administration.

Being a business partner with the Third Reich posed no problem for

Dulles who became the first CIA director in 1947. In fact, their

relationship with the Nazis and Wall Street was exactly how Dulles,

former Pres. Bush and Casey all became CIA directors. GW's

father was made CIA director in 1976. Shortly after creating the

Manhattan Institute, Casey was made CIA director by

Reagan.

In 1954 Casey put together a consortium of investors including top

US intelligence experts who had made fortunes on Wall Street to form

Capital Cities. In the interim, Casey served as Chairman of the

Securities and Exchange Commission from 1969 to 1977. By 1985

Casey's Capital Cities had so much cash it was able to buy ABC and

operate it as a propaganda arm of the US government - which it

continues to be today.

Casey was the top stockholder in ABC while he was director of the

CIA under the Reagan and Bush administrations. ABC, CNN and Rupert

Murdoch's rabidly right wing network FOX were instrumental in

fabricating GW Bush's illegitimate presidency, the myth that Colin

is a hero and the ideathat the Gulf War was a military

victory - rather than a human and ecological disaster fought solely

to benefit the oil industry.

The reason this history is crucial to understanding GW Bush and his

ties to the Manhattan Institute is that these same themes - Wall

Street investing, Eugenics, the oil and drug industries, working for

the Rockefeller family, manipulating the media and the directorship

and ideology of the CIA-are the foundation on which the MI and it's

influence within the new Bush administration can be understood.

The connection between Nazi Germany, the Bush family and the CIA is

simultaneously political, financial and ideological. It encompasses

investment banking, legal and illegal drug dealing and Eugenics, the

pseudo-science of population control. Unlike openly racist groups,

they are equal opportunity employers carefully cultivating

operatives among all races. Academics, politicians, doctors, clergy,

prominent new anchors, social scientists and in some cases even

street gangs are among their assets in the war to exert social

control.

If you visit the MI website you will find a list of academics who

are their roster of so-called conservative experts. Their areas of

expertise are race, eliminating welfare, deregulation of business

and the privatization of virtually everything the government

presently manages-including education, prisons, parks, streets,

social security, courts and welfare.

A number of their experts, including Bush's domestic policy advisor

Goldsmith and Rev. Floyd Flake, are slated for cabinet

positions. Others MI notables, including MyronMagnet, are the

inventors of Bush's doublespeak theme, " compassionate conservatism " .

GW has stated that next to Jesus and the bible, Magnet's book on the

so-called underclass has been the single greatest influence on his

ideas.

The Pioneer Fund, perhaps the world's greatest promoter of Eugenics,

funded MI's best-known resident scholar, Murray, during

eight years in which he wrote The Bell Curve. Despite tremendous

controversy about his ideas Murray remains the MI's leading expert

on welfare reform, IQ and affirmative action. The Bell Curve

advances the idea, as do virtually all Pioneer Fund projects, that

African Americans are genetically inferior, disease prone, have low

IQ and are a drain on the US economy. Murray's books have been

heavily promoted by the MI and are the intellectual foundation for

the movement in the US to end affirmative action and welfare.

Murray is glowingly mentioned hundreds of times on their website,

speaks at their seminars and is cited as a brilliant scholar by none

other than GW Bush's top domestic policy advisor, Goldsmith.

Many Americans didn't seem to mind seeing the CIA ruthlessly

manipulate the political and social fabric of other nations for the

second half of the 20th century. How they will feel about America

being openly run by the CIA and this circle of racist corporate

gangsters may well determine the history of the next century.
