Bush fans dont care that Prescott started the family fortune banking with Nazis until the Gov't stopped him?

and....they don't care about these things either..

That governments have permitted terrorist acts against their own people, and have even themselves been perpetrators in order to find strategic advantage is quite likely true, but this is the United States we're talking about.

That intelligence agencies, financiers, terrorists and narco-criminals have a long history together is well established, but the Nugan Hand Bank, BCCI, Banco Ambrosiano, the P2 Lodge, the CIA/Mafia anti-Castro/Kennedy alliance, Iran/Contra and the rest were a long time ago, so there’s no need to rehash all that. That was then, this is now!

That Jonathan Bush’s Riggs Bank has been found guilty of laundering terrorist funds and fined a US-record $25 million must embarrass his nephew George, but it's still no justification for leaping to paranoid conclusions.

That George Bush's brother Marvin sat on the board of the Kuwaiti-owned company which provided electronic security to the World Trade Centre, Dulles Airport and United Airlines means nothing more than you must admit those Bush boys have done alright for themselves.

That George Bush found success as a businessman only after the investment of Osama’s brother Salem and reputed al Qaeda financier Khalid bin Mahfouz is just one of those things - one of those crazy things.

That Osama bin Laden is known to have been an asset of US foreign policy in no way implies he still is.

That al Qaeda was active in the Balkan conflict, fighting on the same side as the US as recently as 1999, while the US protected its cells, is merely one of history's little aberrations.

The claims of Michael Springman, State Department veteran of the Jeddah visa bureau, that the CIA ran the office and issued visas to al Qaeda members so they could receive training in the United States, sound like the sour grapes of someone who was fired for making such wild accusations.

That one of George Bush's first acts as President, in January 2001, was to end the two-year deployment of attack submarines which were positioned within striking distance of al Qaeda's Afghanistan camps, even as the group's guilt for the Cole bombing was established, proves that a transition from one administration to the next is never an easy task.

That so many influential figures in and close to the Bush White House had expressed, just a year before the attacks, the need for a "new Pearl Harbor" before their militarist ambitions could be fulfilled, demonstrates nothing more than the accidental virtue of being in the right place at the right time.

That the company PTECH, founded by a Saudi financier placed on America’s Terrorist Watch List in October 2001, had access to the FAA’s entire computer system for two years before the 9/11 attack, means he must not have been such a threat after all.

Did you know that Charlie Chaplin was exiled from the U.S. for making a film that criticized the Nazis? At that time, most Americans didn't view the Nazis as something to be concerned about.

While doing business with the Nazis surely isn't the highlight of their family history, do you really think that these later generations should be held accountable for events that happened when they were not even born? I'm not just talking about the Bush family here, but this kind of thing in general. It's important to remember history, but you can't focus on it so much that you are unable to get anything done here in the present.

And Wikipedia isn't always the most accurate source. I'm noticing alot of grammatical issues in your quote, which I'd assumed you cut and pasted. foreignexchange is actually supposed to be two words. As is DefenseTrading and DefenseTitle.

But then I noticed that your information isn't present in your source, nor in the links listed on the Wikipedia page. So where exactly are you copying this information from without acknowledging the source?

Just like you don't care that the killer in congress Ted Kennedy's father was a bootlegger and a crime boss in the 30's .
Oh and good ol Joe Kennedy was not just pro Nazi but he liked Hitler .

You are right. They don't care. It is that or they just push it aside as a "comma" in the world's history.

and IBM made calculating machines the Nazis used to keep track of Jews, so you'd better throw anything they invented out the window, starting with your PC.

Was George supposed to stop his pappy from doing this?

It wasnt his fault his family decided to make money.

I Don't Care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
