of September 11, 2001, murdered just under 3,000 Americans. The most costly attack ever on US soil. Today still uninvestigated, unsolved and virtually forgotten except for friends and relatives. Why this suppression of WTC? Essentially because President Bush claims he cannot be bothered, he does not want his staff distracted, they are busy with the War on Terror. Distracted? This matter could be disposed of in a 30-minute press conference. The WTC episode was the initial, and so far the only, domestic physical act in this War on Terror. Now in denial Mr. Bush has apparently his own deep reasons for avoiding the topic. The country with less transitory interest has a right to know the reality of WTC. In one year this War on Terror has only this single disastrous WTC episode. Mr. Bush has skillfully directed public attention to Afghanistan and Pakistan, but failed to show how Afghanistan and Pakistan tie to WTC Reality is where the public interest resides. For the public the WTC is the War on Terror, yet this is the core reality aspect where Bush ducks and weaves. Even further, he prevailed upon Senator Daschle to kill a Senate inquiry and pours cold water on any public inquiry. 21

WHAT A ROLE MODEL FOR HIS DAUGHTERS!

Y GRANDFATHER,

SAMUEL CLIFTON THOMSON, The Order (Bones) 1891, was from Pottsville, Pa, an important coal mining center to this day. The Thomson family had been involved in coal mining from the early eighteen hundreds into the midtwentieth century. The family was descended from Scottish Covenanters

(Scottish Presbyterians who arrived in America in the mid seventeen hundreds. I have a beautiful sword presented to my great grandfather by officers in his Pennsylvania regiment at the conclusion of the Civil War.) The original homestead exists in bad repair in Thompsontown, PA. My great grandfather changed the spelling of Thomson to Thompson adding a “p” since he wanted to show off his flourishing handwriting and a “p” really made the grade in this regard. Grandpa graduated from Andover Boys Preparatory School, Yale University and from Columbia School of Mines with honors, in 1893. He received the School of Mines medal from the President of Columbia University, Nicholas Murray Butler. Nicholas Murray Butler, on the Executive Committee of the Carnegie Endow- Samuel C.

GERONIMO’S BONES

ACK IN THE LATE SUMMER OF 1989, when the New Haven Advocate’s

office was located on Chapel Street, it was not unusual for the odd and the insane to wander in off the streets.

Some came to sell purloined objects. Some came to babble. And some came because the office was open and there was no place else to go. Most of the time, I was called upon to deal with the crazies, usually in the role of bouncer protecting the mostly female staff. On more than a few occasions, I had to physically remove such visitors. Often, though, the crazies came looking for me. Such was the case with the man in olive drab who had a story to tell. “Hey Altman, someone’s here to see you,” said our receptionist. Great. When she said it like that, it usually meant another paranoid crack head was coming to call. I’d been visited by relatives of Jesus, descendents of UFO aliens and a man claiming to be great Caesar’s ghost. The least I could do, I figured, was humor the man and send him, harmlessly, on his way. I walked out of my office, to the front desk and greeted the man, a short, wiry guy with a craggily, weathered face and stringy hair. Instantly, I sensed there was something about him, something different than the other whackos who walked in off the street. Extending his hand, he introduced himself. “I am Geronimo’s great-great grandson,” he said. “Yeah? And my name is Moses,” I thought to myself. Geronimo 1829-1909 May He Rest in Peace

HOW THE BUSH FAMILY WEALTH IS LINKED TO THE JEWISH HOLOCAUST TOBY ROGERS APPEARED IN

ENRON SCANDAL currently unfolds, another Bush family business scandal lurks beneath the shadows of history that may dwarf it. HILE THE

On April 19, 2001, President George W. Bush spent some of Holocaust Remembrance Day in the Capital Rotunda with holocaust survivors, allied veterans, and their families. In a ceremony that included Jewish prayers and songs sung by holocaust victims in the camps, Benjamin Meed, a survivor of the Warsaw ghetto uprising, movingly described to the gathering what he experienced on April 19, 1943. “I stood outside a Catholic church, which faced the ghetto,” Mr. Meed said, “a young Jewish boy posing as a gentile. As I watched the ghetto being bombarded by the German artillery, I could see many of the Jews of my community jumping out of windows of burning buildings. I stood long and mute.” The survivor concluded his reminiscence saying, “We tremble to think what could happen if we allow a new generation to arise ignorant of the tragedy which is still shaping the future.” President Bush, appearing almost uncomfortable, read a statement that said that humanity was “bound by conscience to remember what happened” and that “the record has been kept and preserved.” The record, Mr. Bush stated, was that one of the worst acts of genocide in human history “came not from crude and uneducated men, but from men who regarded themselves as cultured and well schooled, modern men, forward looking. Their crime showed the world that evil can slip in and blend in amid the most civilized surroundings. In the end only conscience can stop it.” But while President Bush publicly embraced the community of holocaust survivors in Washington last spring, he and his family have been keeping a secret 37

PRESCOTT BUSH, THE UNION BANKING CORPORATION AND THE STORY KRIS MILLEGAN AUGUST 2003

“T

claim everything, explain nothing, deny everything,” recalled Prescott Bush as to how politics HERE’S THREE THINGS TO REMEMBER:

was explained to him by Clare Booth Luce, congresswoman and wife of fellow Bonesman and magazine magnate, Henry Luce. The remarks were recorded in a 1966 interview with Prescott for an oral history project about the Eisenhower Administration by Columbia University. The Bush political family seems to have taken those words to heart, one example being the story of Prescott’s involvement with the Union Banking Corporation and the financing of Hitler and fascism. Why there has been such a deliberate and hard cover-up of this affair is in no doubt due to its sensitive nature. The who, what and where of this business is already covered in several of the other articles in this book. Here we will examine the story as it appears today. The specific allegations about the Union Banking Corporation first surfaced in Antony Sutton’s 1975 book, Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler. Sutton at that time did not know about the Order of Skull & Bones. After becoming aware of the Order in 1983 he expanded his writings on the subject in How the Order Creates War and Revolution in 1984, which was later published, with Antony’s three other booklets on The Order of Skull & Bones, together as America’s Secret Establishment in 1986. The charges were articulated again in 1988 in Sutton’s The Two Faces of George Bush. The mainstream press and establishment historians ignored Sutton’s books and the accusations. In 1992, Webster Tarpley and Anton Chaitkin authored George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography (some chapters are presented in this book), which took the investigations
