assassination of President John Fe 4 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,976 Kennedy the American government came to 5 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,533 the conclusion that a lone gunman had 6 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,976 changed the course of human history by 7 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:04,976 killing the most powerful man in the 8 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,976 world with three rifle shots fired from 9 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,976 the elevated window of an office 10 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,467 building and for half a century they 11 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:12,976 have stuck rigidly to this fabrication 12 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,733 while critics scientists playwrights and 13 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,733 poets have produced books and essays and 14 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,533 films to prove beyond any shadow of a 15 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,600 doubt that this version of our Western 16 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,733 history is a physical impossibility over 17 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,976 and over again we have been told that 18 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,467 this man did it by himself he didn't 19 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,976 have any help and he did it because he 20 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,976 was a lonely madman and a communist to 21 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,600 boot we are also meant to believe that 22 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,976 there is nothing remotely suspicious in 23 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,600 his being shot on live television in a 24 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,667 basement full of police officers before 25 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:51,976 he had a chance to tell his side of the 26 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,667 story so there is quite clearly no need 27 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,600 to investigate further of course every 28 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,976 thinking person knows this is absolute 29 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:00,976 nonsense 30 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,333 and being nonsensical it naturally 31 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:04,976 leaves thinking people ask some very 32 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,467 important questions like why did the 33 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,976 American government come up with such a 34 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,667 lame and improbable scenario to account 35 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,976 for what had happened and then why did 36 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,600 they stick with it so dogmatically for 37 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,533 so many years afterwards. exactly what 38 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,667 and who are they protecting and how can 39 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,976 it be that even such venerable 40 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,400 institutions as the BBC have played 41 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:31,976 along with this charade 42 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,600 in the intervening decades we now know 43 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,600 that they were actually eight riflemen 44 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,600 firing at the President on that day we 45 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:43,976 know where they were located in Dealey 46 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,533 Plaza and we know their names however 47 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,976 those with sharp eyes will already be 48 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,976 asking themselves why we were only 49 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,733 showing the location of six assassins in 50 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,976 this schematic we're doing this because 51 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,976 any casual onlooker will happen to be in 52 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,600 Dealey Plaza at 12:29 on November 22nd 53 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,467 1963 might well have caught sight of 54 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:04,976 these six 55 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,533 many people did witnesses like Arnold 56 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,733 Rowland Richard Randolph Carr Lee Bowers 57 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,600 Amos humans Mary Moorman they all gave 58 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,976 precise descriptions of men they 59 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:16,976 observed in the windows of the Book 60 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,976 Depository and on the famous grassy 61 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,600 knoll but none of them observed two of 62 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,976 the riflemen who shot at the president 63 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,733 no one did and the reason why no one did 64 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,976 is itself the key to the mystery a 65 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,976 mystery which begins with a very simple 66 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,600 question supposing you wanted to shoot 67 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,976 at a man on a barren empty street 68 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,600 without anybody seeing you where could 69 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,600 you possibly hide however the rifleman 70 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:42,976 who took part in the assassination were 71 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,667 not as important to an understanding of 72 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:46,976 what the Kennedy assassination was 73 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,976 really all about as were a group of 74 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,976 twenty men who had gathered together the 75 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,976 night before at the home of Dallas oil 76 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,533 millionaire Clint Murchison these men 77 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,600 were a much more important part of the 78 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,976 story than the assassins themselves 79 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,976 because they hired the eight snipers and 80 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,467 paid them we even know how much they 81 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,467 paid them so who were these men what 82 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:13,976 brought them together to orchestrate 83 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,667 such a foul and despicable deed why did 84 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:18,976 they and more importantly those who came 85 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,667 after them cover up the crime with such 86 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:22,976 ruthless brutality for so long 87 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,667 afterwards and how can it be that these 88 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,976 men and what they stood for has left an 89 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,600 indelible legacy with still influences 90 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:31,976 our daily lives right up to the present 91 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,533 day to answer these questions we must 92 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,976 inevitably step back into history and 93 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,976 most people will not like this very much 94 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,976 because most people have very little 95 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,976 interest in history this however is 96 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,976 going to be a history lesson quite 97 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:46,976 unlike anything that anyone has ever 98 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,667 heard it certainly will be nothing like 99 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,976 what we are taught in school and yet it 100 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,976 begins with a name which most people 101 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:54,976 have heard but probably won't be able to 102 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,733 place the name of E.H. Harriman. Who was E.H. 103 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,000 Harriman. 104 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,533 And he entrusted me... I'm sure Americans in 105 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:20,976 particular will be amused to learn that 106 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,467 Edward Henry Harriman was actually a 107 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,976 real historical figure. This man was one 108 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,733 of America's first industrial giants and 109 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:29,976 like the Rockefellers in oil and the 110 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,667 Carnegie's in steel he got his start by 111 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,976 borrowing money from the Rothschilds of 112 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,976 whom we'll hear more later to create a 113 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,976 monopoly for his own business which was 114 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,976 railroads. he was the nineteenth-century 115 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,533 railroad king it was a monopoly which 116 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:45,976 wouldn't be allowed today and it helped 117 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,976 him turn to create the Rockefeller oil 118 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,600 monopoly now this gave America's first 119 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,600 industrial giants colossal power these 120 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:57,976 were the first people in human history 121 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,467 we must forget whose businesses were 122 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,533 worth more than most countries people 123 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,733 whose fortunes dwarfed anything that the 124 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,733 Caesars or the Tudors or the Medici ever 125 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,667 dreamed of so big greedy they used this 126 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,976 power to engage in price-fixing 127 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,467 naturally they formed a cartel their 128 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:20,976 attitude was that they could charge 129 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,976 whatever they liked for steel and oil 130 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,976 and transporting goods on the railways 131 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,733 they knew that all American business was 132 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,976 dependent on them and they'd made sure 133 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,600 there was no competition so they could 134 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,976 ignore market forces and charge pretty 135 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,976 much whatever they like now this 136 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:37,976 naturally caused resentment and it's 137 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,976 very interesting that the press at that 138 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,976 time started calling these first 139 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,533 Illuminati bankers and industrialists 140 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,333 robber barons of course once these 141 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,976 fortunes began to be made others 142 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:51,976 naturally trying to get in on the act 143 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,400 one who succeeded was JP Morgan who 144 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,976 became a private banker during this 145 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,976 period but modern critics have 146 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,976 discovered that far from being the 147 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:01,976 richest man in America everyone thought 148 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,733 he was it turned out upon his death that 149 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,733 Morgan actually only owned 17% of Morgan 150 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,976 Bank and that like so many others he was 151 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,976 simply a front for the Rothschilds family. 152 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,533 five years after E.H. Harriman died and 153 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,467 handed on the business to his sons, W 154 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,600 Averell Harriman and E Roland Harriman 155 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,976 this new breed of Western business 156 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,976 moguls faced their first really big test 157 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:27,976 was the coming of World War 158 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,467 once again we must never forget that 159 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:31,976 this was the first time in human history 160 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,533 that a truly global conflict had been 161 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,667 fought it was sure to have long-lasting 162 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,976 international repercussions and many 163 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,976 observers at the time had their doubts 164 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:42,976 as to whether Western industrial 165 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,976 capitalism which was still in its 166 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,976 infancy could cope with the demands of 167 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,976 war production in the world economic 168 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,976 recession which followed many feared 169 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,976 these fledgling industries might vanish 170 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,976 altogether as country struggled with 171 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,533 debt and war reparations but actually 172 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,533 Western capitalism emerged from World 173 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,976 War one in a far stronger state than it 174 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,467 was in at the beginning so how could 175 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:06,976 this be 176 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,733 the first world war taught the new class 177 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:10,976 of international bankers and 178 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,667 industrialists a very simple lesson war 179 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:14,976 is good for business 180 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,600 take for instance Remington we tend to 181 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:19,976 associate their name with typewriters 182 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,976 but actually they made most of the 183 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,976 rifles and handguns used during the 184 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,976 Great War and made a colossal fortune in 185 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,976 the process the banks in their turn 186 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,976 locked this up because it meant that 187 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,976 defense contractors were having no 188 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,976 trouble repaying the huge loans they had 189 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,667 outstanding and best of all the world's 190 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,976 richest nations had had to borrow huge 191 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:39,976 sums from the merchant bankers in the 192 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,333 first place to finance the war the 193 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:43,976 Americans and the British just as much 194 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,467 as the Germans and they would now be 195 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,976 repaying these loans to the banks for 196 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,976 decades to come at a steep rate of 197 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,976 interest for international merchant 198 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,976 bankers the Rothschilds in particular 199 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,733 the First World War had been a gift from 200 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,976 heaven and people watching this should 201 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,976 ask themselves a simple question before 202 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,976 passing judgment supposing you were in 203 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,976 business during that war and the 204 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,976 contract you had with the government to 205 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,733 supply the troops with tin hats or boots 206 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,733 or uniforms or gunpowder was netting you 207 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,600 millions every year in profit and then 208 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,976 one day the war ended and your money 209 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,467 stopped completely what do you think 210 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,600 your attitude to war might be that war 211 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,976 was good for business was not the only 212 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,976 lesson the ruling classes learned during 213 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,533 this period the Russian Revolution of 214 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,667 1917 terrified rich people all over the 215 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,667 world watching Lenin and Trotsky taking 216 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,976 over such a vast area of the globe 217 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,976 the kings and queens of Europe's tiny 218 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,533 sovereign states in particular became 219 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,533 extremely nervous the question on all 220 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,667 their minds was supposing the Communist 221 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,976 success in Russia should inspire their 222 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,400 own working class to rise in revolt 223 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,733 many of the crowned heads of Europe like 224 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,600 England's George V had been related to 225 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,976 Tzar Nicholas II and the brutal 226 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:06,976 execution of the Czar and his family 227 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,400 particularly the bayoneting of his 228 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:10,976 young daughters sent a shock wave 229 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,976 through the upper classes of every 230 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,600 nation did a similar fate lie in store 231 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,976 for the royal families of Holland Sweden 232 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,400 Spain and England this question was 233 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:21,976 lying heavily on the thoughts of the 234 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,976 elite when the first world war ended in 235 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,600 1918 and it had the effect of focusing 236 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,667 the minds of the new Illuminati bankers 237 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,976 and industrialists on the question of 238 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:32,976 what to do for best were the defeated 239 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,600 and dilapidated Germany the population 240 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,976 were poor penniless and worn out yet the 241 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,976 German economy still contains some of 242 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,976 the most sophisticated and expensive 243 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,333 industrial stock on the planet the 244 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,976 Illuminati sensed an opportunity 245 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,976 supposing as the world's first 246 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,733 international businessmen they could get 247 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,976 their hands on Germany's steel mills her 248 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,600 coal mines her factories ports and her 249 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,467 shipbuilding industry over the years 250 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,976 certain names have become very familiar 251 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:06,976 to those who maintained an interest in 252 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,600 the Kennedy assassination none more so 253 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,976 than Allen Dulles from Kennedy fired 254 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,976 after the Bay of Pigs disaster and yet 255 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,976 later he somehow managed to chair the 256 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,976 Warren Commission which was supposed to 257 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,976 be investigating Kennedy's death 258 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,976 something few people know however is 259 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,976 that Dulles and his older brother Joan 260 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:24,976 of Foster Dulles 261 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,733 wrote the Treaty of Versailles they were 262 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,976 both lawyers of Sullivan and Cromwell 263 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,733 and it was largely they who decided that 264 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,976 the German people must pay war 265 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,733 reparations totaling 135 billion marks a 266 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,976 mind-boggling sum at that time which 267 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,533 today translates into two hundred and 268 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,000 fifty trillion 269 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:51,976 when this was announced the legendary UK 270 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,733 economist J Maynard Keynes maintained it 271 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,976 was a ludicrous sum and he did a Swift 272 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,733 calculation from it she reasoned that it 273 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,600 would take Germany until 1988 60 years 274 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,600 hard labor to pay it off but it didn't 275 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,000 so why 276 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,976 may not cane sensed that the Dulles 277 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,976 brothers but Gus they were by the new 278 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,867 Illuminati were trying quite 279 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,976 deliberately to sabotage the German 280 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,333 economy and they succeeded as mass 281 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,976 unemployment led to hyperinflation the 282 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,976 famous stories of people papering their 283 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,976 walls with worthless rice marks and 284 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,976 handing over their life savings for a 285 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,976 loaf of bread soon followed with German 286 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,976 investors on their knees the new 287 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:34,976 Illuminati moved in and began buying up 288 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,976 shares of stock in German industry at a 289 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,000 knockdown price 290 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,467 now why did they do this the cynical 291 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,976 mind would say to make a buck but it 292 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,400 really wasn't that simple what they 293 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,976 wanted was to make Germany strong again 294 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,333 so that she would become a bulwark 295 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,467 against Soviet Communism Germany was 296 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,600 fighting for its life certain measures 297 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,976 were needed to protect it from its 298 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,667 enemies I cannot say that I am sorry we 299 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,976 applied those measures we were a bulwark 300 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,667 against Bolshevism who were a pillar of 301 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,600 Western culture a bulwark and a pillar 302 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,533 the West may at wish to retain it was 303 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:18,976 around this time that the newspapers 304 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,976 which these same rich people owned made 305 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,533 sure the word bolshie a truncation of 306 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,667 Bolshevik ended the English language so 307 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,976 that we would associate Bolshevism with 308 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,667 aggression and it was with these subtle 309 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,333 and not-so-subtle methods that the 310 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,976 International lead began to shape our 311 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,976 destiny for the remainder of the 20th 312 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,667 century the intellectuals of the period 313 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,467 were furious they were incensed they 314 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,976 were depressed and you get a very good 315 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,600 feeling of the political atmosphere of 316 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:53,976 the time from the diaries of the Labour 317 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,333 politician Harold Nicolson when he 318 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,267 writes we have lost our willpower 319 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,333 since our willpower is divided the 320 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,976 people of the governing class think only 321 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,733 of their own fortunes which means hatred 322 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,467 of the rents our class interests cut 323 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:14,976 across our national interests and I go 324 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,067 to bed in gloom with such heavy 325 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:19,976 investment coming into the country 326 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,533 particularly from America and Britain 327 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,533 Germany began to recover very rapidly 328 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,976 and then the new class of international 329 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,667 financiers began searching around for a 330 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,267 homegrown authoritarian political 331 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,533 movement they could support what they 332 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,600 needed was someone they could count on 333 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,600 to be both aggressive and expansionist 334 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,667 ultra right-wing causes which at normal 335 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,976 times would have been ignored and 336 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:51,976 marginalized 337 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,976 was suddenly given very careful 338 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,467 consideration until finally the rich 339 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,733 elite found a man and an idea which they 340 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,976 felt might deliver the political outcome 341 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,000 they desired 342 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,133 Adolph Hitler and his fledgling 343 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,467 National Socialist Party at the same 344 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,976 time that the world's rich elite began 345 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:16,976 grooming Hitler for his starring role 346 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,976 they also became even more deeply 347 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,667 involved in military intelligence I say 348 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:22,976 even more because the Dulles brothers 349 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,267 Averell Harriman and the chief of 350 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,976 Remington Samuel Bush a man referred to 351 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,976 as the original merchants of death had a 352 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,976 relationship with American military 353 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,976 intelligence stretching back into World 354 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,976 War one the lesson here being that the 355 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,867 American variant of military 356 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,933 intelligence started out with 357 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,976 businessmen protecting their investments 358 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,667 just as if they were a mafia right from 359 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,976 the very beginning it had nothing to do 360 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,733 with national security and everything to 361 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,600 do with money in Hitler the Illuminati 362 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,667 had found a ready-made stooge who could 363 00:15:59,000 --> 00:15:59,976 be the face of this autocratic new 364 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,600 movement and when the time came to put 365 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:03,976 together a new Secret Intelligence 366 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,976 Service which was going to help protect 367 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,976 all the money they had tied up in the 368 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,667 German economy these men also found one 369 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,976 was readily available the order of the 370 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,067 soullessness at Yale University 371 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,267 discussion of secret societies is 372 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,976 something of a minefield because it so 373 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,333 easily invites ridicule it is very 374 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,976 difficult for the general public to 375 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,533 accept that the super-rich leaders of 376 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,976 their Western world can possibly be as 377 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,533 mad and deranged as they actually are 378 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,267 the public generally speaking are 379 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,976 sensible and level-headed people who 380 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,976 have to balance their checkbooks so they 381 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,976 inevitably tend to laugh at stories 382 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,733 about Satanists and occult believers but 383 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,976 if you talk to any well-informed 384 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,976 historians they are all aware of the 385 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,976 important role which various secret 386 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,976 societies have played in human history 387 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,600 the black hand always played a pivotal 388 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,976 role in the history of the Mafia if you 389 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:02,976 talk to anyone in the UK who was 390 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,976 political and read books they are always 391 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:05,976 a 392 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,976 at the ruling class of Britain including 393 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,976 every member of the royal family is a 394 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,533 Freemason and the emblem of the death 395 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,976 said was sported on the caps of the 396 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,976 high-ranking Nazi officers from the very 397 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,533 beginning the symbols of these secret 398 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,976 societies always seemed to play around 399 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,667 with some kind of Skull and Bones motif 400 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,976 so that it's abundantly clear what their 401 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,533 mission statement is these people are 402 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,667 pirates willing to commit any crime for 403 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,976 big money and they first became 404 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,976 established in America at the Yale 405 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,667 University

00:17:50,976 other people curious about them and in 409 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,976 1867 some undergraduates from a rival 410 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,976 campus Society broke into their 411

lots of lumps and 414 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,533 candles many dilapidated human skulls 415 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,667 lying next to of foolscap and bells and 416 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,600 it was morbidly dark because the walls 417 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,976 were covered in black velvet having 418 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,976 established a suitably satanic 419 00:18:16,000 -->

00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,333 the time were aware that they only 543 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,976 enjoyed relatively cheap clothing 544 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:23,976 because it was all made from slave 545 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:24,976 cotton brought from America 546 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,976 on the brown were the ships and sold to 547 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,600 British mill owners

--> 00:23:42,867 to fill with stories of Nazi 554 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:43,976 concentration camps he still declared 555 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,133 himself to be Hitler's most avid 556 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,600 supporter we must lend Nazi Germany 90 557 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,976 million marks he declared it may never 558 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,667 be repaid but it will be less of a loss 559 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,533 than the fall of Nazism. 560 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,467 one might have thought Sir Montagu's 561 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,976 close personal friends the royal family 562 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,976 would have been outraged by his comments. 563 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,976 nothing could be further from the truth. 564 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,667 it is part of the remit of this film to 565 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,976 try and make people aware of the tricks 566 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,976 the rich play in order to control how we 567 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,600 think George Orwell once said that the 568 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,976 ruling class in every age have tried to 569 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,976 impose a false view of the world upon 570 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,533 their followers and there's no better 571 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,976 example than the way in which the 572 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,976 British have been duped into believing 573 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,976 that their royal family are called 574 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,976 Windsor and descent from English kings 575 00:24:34,000

during the First World 581 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:52,976 War 582 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,400 Prince Harry in honor of his German 583 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,976 roots has been known addresses a

divorcee Wallis Simpson visited 590 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:13,976 Hitler to make it abundantly clear to 591 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,600 the whole world that he too was a Nazi 592 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,400 he even signed his name Hetzog Von 593 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:22,000 Windsor 594 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,976 thinking people during this period 595 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,976 realized that this whole thing with 596 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,976 kissing up to the Fuhrer somehow 597 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,733 transcended national boundaries the rich 598 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,976 people from the most diverse countries 599 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,467 had bonded together because they all 600 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,600 shared a common goal the kings and the 601

succeed they were 604 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,733 determined we weren't gonna finish up at 605 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,976 the Russian royal family and they were 606 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:52,976 determined to hang on to their money 607 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,267 they were much more afraid of the 608 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:57,976 ordinary working people in their own 609 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,976 countries than they were of fascist 610 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,976 Germany and this prevailing sentiment 611 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,976 amongst the world's ruling class that 612 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,976 America's elite to attempt a fascist 613 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,267 coup d'etat in 1934 614 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,733 I hope it will be plain to people by now 615 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,976 that Hitler's economic miracle is the 616 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,733 greatest myth in human history there was 617 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,976 no economic miracle there are no 618 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:21,976 miracles and if there are why can't the 619 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,667 Germans do it all again now if you want 620 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,976 to construct a network of new roads and 621 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,976 new steelworks and new factories you 622 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:31,976 need one thing money you need investment 623 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,976 and the investment didn't come from 624 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,976 Hitler it came from Braun on this 625 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,976 Harriman and their business associate 626 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,400 Fitz Thiessen it came from Hjalmar 627 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,976 Schacht and his best friend Sir Montagu 628 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,733 Collin Norman. it came from men like Axel 629 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:48,001 Wenner-Gren 630 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,976 the Swedish multi-millionaire arms 631 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,400 manufacturer and Charles Bedaux the 632 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,667 french business mogul. these people were 633 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:56,976 all in the same bed with their Nazi 634 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,976 friends the Duke and Duchess of Windsor 635 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,467 the Dulles brothers Prescott Sheldon 636 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,733 Bush and George Herbert Walker with whom 637 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,976 they'd created the Union Bank for 638 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,733 laundering Nazi money and was staged one 639 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:11,976 of their plan for world domination 640 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,600 complete they now turned to the second 641 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:15,976 phase which was meant to be the 642 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,667 overthrow of American democracy and the 643 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:19,976 imposition of fascist government upon 644 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,667 the United States in order to pull this 645 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,267 off these Nazis raised money from 646 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,976 America's richest families many of whom 647 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,976 in this new consumerist society had 648 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,333 become household names the Colgate 649 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,667 family the Birdseye family did DuPont 650 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,400 family the Rockefeller family these 651 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:40,976 people handed over millions to the 652 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,667 American Finance ears of Hitler so they 653 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:45,976 could hire train and supply a private 654 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,533 army which would attempt to overthrow 655 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,976 the democratically elected government of 656 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,976 Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt and 657 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,976 impose fascist dictatorship in America 658 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,976 of course it's natural to wonder 659 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,976 considering the ad such advantages how 660 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,976 on earth they failed to pull it off the 661 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,976 simple answer is that they chose the 662 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,976 wrong man because their choice to lead 663 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,976 this Nazi insurrection was Major General 664 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,333 Smedley Darlington Butler the most 665 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,976 decorated soldier of the period and in 666 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,976 all of American history perhaps the most 667 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,200 unsung hero of all 668 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,400 because Smedley Butler was the most 669 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,976 genuine Democrat and lover of Liberty 670 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,533 the world has ever seen 671 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,267 appeared before the congressional 672 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:28,976 committee the highest representation of 673 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,600 American people under subpoena to tell 674 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,976 what I knew of activities which I 675 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,976 believe might lead to an attempt to set 676 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,533 up a fascist dictatorship the plan is 677 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,976 out lying to me was to form an 678 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:42,976 organization of veterans to use as a 679 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,733 bluffer as a club at least to intimidate 680 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,976 the government and break down our 681 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:49,976 democratic institutions the upshot of 682 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,976 the whole thing was that I was supposed 683 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,600 to lead an organization of 500,000 men 684 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:56,976 which would be able to take over the 685 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,976 functions of government my main interest 686 00:28:59,000 --> 00:28:59,976 in all this is to preserve our 687 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,733 democratic institutions I want to retain 688 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,667 the right to vote by the right to speak 689 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,400 freely and the right to write if we 690 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,976 maintain these basic principles our 691 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,533 democracy is safe no dictatorship can 692 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,976 exist the suffrage freedom of speech and 693 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,976 press sped lee butler tricked the 694 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,976 plotters into thinking he was interested 695 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,976 for just long enough until he was sure 696 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,667 who all the major players were and then 697 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,976 he told the president this put FDR in a 698 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,667 quite impossible position 699 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,733 America at that time was just coming out 700 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,976 of the Great Depression the last thing 701 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,976 he wanted was to cause another economic 702 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,267 downturn and he feared that if he 703 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,976 scooped up all the leading bankers and 704 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:43,976 captains of industry in the United 705 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,976 States and threw them all in jail the 706 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,976 country just might fall apart so what 707 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,533 could he do to Smedley Butler's utter 708 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,533 incredulity he chose in the end to do 709 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,976 nothing in spite of the fact that these 710 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,976 men had committed treason and should 711 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,533 have been hanged their power was such 712 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,976 that they were not even charged let 713 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,976 alone tried and so great was their 714 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,976 influence they were able to keep America 715 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,976 out of the war until December the 7th 716 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,000 1941 717 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,000 [Music] 718 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,976 with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor 719 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:24,976 Roosevelt finally realized he had to do 720 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,600 something his response was the trading 721 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,976 with the enemy Act which allowed him to 722 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,976 seize assets like the Union Bank through 723 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,976 which bush Walker and Harriman had been 724 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,000 financing Thyssen. 725 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,733 Roosevelt didn't realize however that it 726 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:40,976 was already a case of too little too 727 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,976 late because without his knowledge 728 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,976 American business moguls had been 729 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:46,976 tumbling over one another for two years 730 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:48,976 in their efforts to assist and do 731 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,667 business with the Hitler regime typical 732 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,976 of this American spirit of enterprise 733 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,600 was Sosthenes Behn the president of ITT 734 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,976 who flew immediately liberal in when war 735 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,976 was declared to put in Hitler's phone 736 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:03,976 lines 737 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,976 he gave the Nazis the most high-tech 738 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:07,976 state-of-the-art telecommunications 739 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,976 system in the world at that time 740 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,976 so that Hitler could rule European 741 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,467 mainland with the maximum efficiency 742 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,533 rich men have been hiring thugs to do 743 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:20,001 their dirty work 744 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,400 especially to frighten people since 745 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,467 human civilization began what people 746 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,733 have to try to appreciate is that Nazism 747 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,667 in reality was simply the first time in 748 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,600 human history that the rich had enough 749 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,400 wealth to hire an entire country of 750 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,733 those to do their dirty work some of the 751 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,733 most emotive images in world history are 752 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,976 those of the Nazi war machine sweeping 753 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,976 across the Low Countries to begin their 754 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,467 occupation of France and people have 755 00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,976 always assumed that the trucks used for 756 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,976 the miles long through convoys must have 757 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,733 been German trucks but if anyone at that 758 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,533 time had taken the trouble to lift up 759 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,667 the cowling and look at the engine they 760 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,976 would have found these were actually 761 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:14,976 Ford trucks which had been built with 762 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,667 personal Commission from Henry Ford who 763 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,976 was sitting in his office 4,000 miles 764 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,667 away in Dearborn Michigan a service for 765 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,976 which he was given the Grand Cross of 766 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,976 the Eagle the highest honor the Nazis 767 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:28,800 ever bestowed on a civilian 768 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,600 for suit the US Army the US government 769 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,976 and in the 50s because during the war 770 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:35,976 the US Air Force bombed their tank 771 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,976 making facilities in Germany anything 772 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,333 this is true and what was at 52 or 773 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,976 something they sued the US government 774 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:44,976 for for destroying their factories and 775 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,600 they won they won the lawsuit so I had 776 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,533 to write a little song for Henry here 777 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,000 [Music] 778 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,667 the Nazis you don't take the stupid gun 779 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,467 down lots of soldiers in the US Army 780 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,733 ranks is it before the fascist and nasty 781 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,667 one does he eat build tanks for any hit 782 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,976 list so admired Henry Ford he kept a 783 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,976 life-size portrait of him on the wall 784 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,667 next to his desk and even his legendary 785 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,976 Panzer tanks were tainted by these sorts 786 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,976 of practices because they were made by 787 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,533 IG Farben who had ended into a cartel 788 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,333 with the Rockefellers Standard Oil 789 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,976 the government in Washington knew all 790 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,333 about this and largely did nothing 791 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,976 licensing arrangements for trading with 792 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,976 the enemy in wartime were issued without 793 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,600 any fuss even to the extent that after 794 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,976 the occupation of France. the Chase 795 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,976 Morgan banks in Paris simply carried on 796 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,600 doing business as usual the incredible 797 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,667 truth which the rich elite have managed 798 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,976 to hide from the world for seventy years 799 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,600 through their control over schoolbooks 800 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,733 in our education system is that the Nazi 801 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,976 war machine was actually an American 802 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,267 business and for the Rockefellers 803 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,600 DuPont's Harriman's walkers and bushes 804 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,976 in particular it was a highly lucrative 805 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,000 business 806 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,667 for their part Coca Cola's contribution 807 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,600 to the war effort was to sell billions 808 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:24,976 of soft drinks to the thirsty Nazis 809 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,976 while they were strafing and bombing 810 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,733 Allied soldiers particularly in very hot 811 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,867 regions in the deserts where 812 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,976 refrigerators tend to be scarce 813 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,733 there were even stories of Messerschmitt 814 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,976 pilots wrapping wet towels around 815 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,400 bottles of coke, tying them to their 816 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,976 aircraft then flying up to altitude 817 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,976 where the cold and the windchill turned 818 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,667 the wet towel into a solid block of ice 819 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,733 they would then dive down crack open the 820 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,667 towel and enjoy a nice cold coke in the 821 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,733 desert if they had wanted to the Western 822 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,976 multinationals could have grounded the 823 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,976 Luftwaffe and stopped the war at any 824 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,533 time because the German aircraft were 825 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,976 totally dependent on imported supplies 826 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,467 of tetraethyl lead an additive which 827 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,976 prevents knocking in aero engines but 828 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,976 Standard Oil kept the supply of this 829 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:18,976 vital resource going through neutral 830 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,600 Switzerland for the entire war and any 831 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:23,976 Dutch people who might be wondering at 832 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,976 this point what kind of percentage the 833 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:26,976 Swiss took from this little arrangement 834 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,976 they need to be aware that thanks to 835 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,133 prince Bernhardt Von Lippi of the 836 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,976 Netherlands the father of the recently 837 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:35,976 retired queen Beatrix and prominent 838 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:36,976 member of the Nazi party 839 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,600 royal dutch/shell gave Hitler millions 840 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,467 of tons of crude oil for nothing the 841 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,667 Dutch royal family actually fueled the 842 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,976 invasion force which our next Holland 843 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,976 and were instrumental in helping the 844 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,733 Nazis to rape their own country but most 845 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,467 shocking of all is the truth of what 846 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:58,976 really happened in the little Polish 847 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,600 town of Oswiecim. this sleepy little 848 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,976 hamlet just happened to be in an 849 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:06,976 extremely mineral-rich region 850 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,400 particularly for coal which Western 851 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:10,976 industrialist said wanted to get their 852 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,533 hands on for years with the coming of 853 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:14,976 the Hitler regime and the invasion of 854 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,467 Poland the fascist financier had the 855 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:19,976 bright idea of turning this conquered 856 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,976 region into an investors paradise by 857 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:23,976 building a Nazi concentration camp near 858 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:24,976 the town 859 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,600 utilizing the slave labor available to 860 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:28,976 drastically reduce their own production 861 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,267 costs few people are aware of the 862 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,733 gigantic scale of the Nazi concentration 863 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,667 camp Network and are blissfully unaware 864 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,333 that the real purpose behind their 865 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:43,976 construction was to make a profit for 866 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,733 the rich which is why they stole all the 867 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,733 gold watches gold wedding rings and gold 868 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,976 teeth fillings and melted them down into 869 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,600 gold ingots to this day there are bars 870 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,976 of gold lying in the vaults of the Bank 871 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,976 of England which have the Nazi swastika 872 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,667 stamped on them gold stolen from Jewish 873 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,600 corpses it shouldn't come as any great 874 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:11,976 surprise that George Herbert Walker 875 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,533 family was slave owners on the cotton 876 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,667 plantations of 1930s America Walker was 877 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,667 used to organizing slave labor so while 878 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,667 his business associate Averell Harriman 879 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,976 was paying for Hitler's half-million SS 880 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,976 troops and supplying them all was brand 881 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:28,976 new Thompson sub-machine guns because he 882 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,600 did Walker took over the management of 883 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:33,976 this new polish concentration camp and 884 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,933 when his Nazi friends started 885 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:36,976 complaining that they couldn't pronounce 886 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,976 the name was Oswiecim any better than I can. 887 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:40,976 they all got together and decided they 888 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:41,976 had better germanized the name it is 889 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:43,976 something which sat more comfortably on 890 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,733 Nazi tongues it was in this way that the 891 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,000 world first heard of Auschwitz 892 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:52,976 because the truth about Auschwitz and 893 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,733 the entire Nazi war machine is that they 894 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,976 were essentially no different to 895 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,600 McDonald's they were American business 896 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,667 enterprises abroad businesses which the 897 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,976 richest European families invested in 898 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,533 and businesses which because of slave 899 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,976 labor made obscene profits which 900 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,976 Prescott Sheldon bush took and placed in 901 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,467 a blind trust which later financed a 902 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:17,976 bush political dynasty which produced 903 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:19,976 two presidents of the united states his 904 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,600 son George Herbert walker bush and his 905 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,733 grandson George walker bush this picture 906 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,533 of the railway leading into Auschwitz 907 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,976 has since world war two become the 908 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,600 iconic image of the holocaust to us it 909 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:36,976 now represents something like the gate 910 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,667 to hell but how differently one wonders 911 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,976 would we have looked at this image all 912 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,733 of our lives if we had always known that 913 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,267 this railway line was an American 914 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,733 railway line laid by the Herman brothers 915 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,667 on behalf of Uncle Sam the Standard Oil 916 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,667 IG Farben cartel even made the Zyklon B 917 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,867 gas for the Jewish Holocaust 918 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,733 now anyone who at this point is thinking 919 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:08,976 that all this simply cannot be true 920 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,467 because if it was someone would have 921 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,600 sued well someone did this information 922 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,976 came into this public domain because of 923 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:18,976 a Dutch intelligence agent who was so 924 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:19,976 disgusted when he found all of this out 925 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,733 he leaked it to the press as a result of 926 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,976 which two very senior Jewish gentlemen 927 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:25,976 Kurt 928 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,976 Julius Goldstein and Peter Gingold filed 929 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,667 suit against the American government of 930 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,976 course the more discriminating among us 931 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:34,976 will now be asking how it can be that 932 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,976 this story went completely unreported in 933 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,600 the mainstream media one might just as 934 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:41,976 well ask why The Times in London was 935 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,976 writing favorable stories about the 936 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:45,976 Nazi concentration camps throughout the 937 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,667 1930s and why Lord Rothermere was still 938 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,976 referring to Hitler as a great gentleman 939 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,600 as late as 1940 you really would think 940 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:55,976 by now that people would have realized 941 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,976 that it isn't so much the bias in the 942 00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,976 media which really matters it's the 943 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,533 things they know about but never tell 944 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,733 you that really matter because the truth 945 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,667 is that the press knew exactly what was 946 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:10,976 going on in the concentration camps all 947 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,600 through the war they never said a word 948 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:14,976 about it 949 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:16,976 because they knew who was making money 950 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,667 from the slave labor now it's very easy 951 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:23,976 to imagine what the response of a 952 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:25,976 conservative politician American or 953 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,600 British would be to all of this if all 954 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,976 of this is true he's bound to ask why 955 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,976 nobody said a word about American 956 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:34,976 industrialists building Hitler's war 957 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,733 machine at the Nuremberg trials how come 958 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,333 it never got mentioned where's the 959 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,733 responsibility of the Vatican who signed 960 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,667 in 1933 the Concordat was Hitler giving 961 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,733 him his first tremendous prestige are we 962 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,600 now to find the Vatican guilty who has 963 00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,976 the responsibility of the world leader 964 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:01,976 Winston Churchill who said in an open 965 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,667 letter to the London Times in 1938 1938 966 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,333 your honor where England to suffer 967 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,976 national disaster should pray to God to 968 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:14,976 send a man of this 969 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:15,976 strength of mind and will of another of 970 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,067 Hitler are we now to fight with 971 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,867 Churchill guilty where's the 972 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,976 responsibility of those American 973 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,976 industrialists who helped Hitler to 974 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,600 rebuild his elements and are we now to 975 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,667 find the American industrialist guilty? no 976 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,333 your honor no Germany alone is not 977 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,533 guilty the whole world is responsible 978 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,667 for it last Germany it is an easy thing 979 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:46,976 to condemn one man in the dark it is 980 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:48,976 easy to condemn the German people to 981 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:50,976 speak of the basic flaw in the German 982 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:51,976 character that allowed hid that the rise 983 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,600 to power at the same time in school we 984 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:16,733 are taught that the Allies defeated Nazi 985 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,467 Germany in World War two this is not 986 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,600 true the Nazis won the war because the 987 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,733 real Nazis the rich played on both sides 988 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,600 that's what a rich businessman does he 989 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,976 arranges things so that he is well 990 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,733 thought of by both sides so then whoever 991 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,733 wins he wins and his money is safe now a 992 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,976 lot of people will still think it is 993 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,600 simply ludicrous to suggest the Second 994 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,733 World War was a phony war they are bound 995 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:56,976 to say that no one who was there at the 996 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,067 time thought it was a phony war 997 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,600 nearly a new baby 200 gross of

00:44:02,333 all the boys at sea never has been 1021 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,600 now obviously the British of the Dutch 1022 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,733 in particular will have a very hard time 1023 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,976 accepting that their royal family 1024 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,600 profited from Nazi concentration camps 1025 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,600 slave labor but if you go online there 1026 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:28,976 is so much about this on the internet 1027 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,533 now it's become plain that historians 1028 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:34,976 are more and more proving that those 1029 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,600 days were really all about the Western 1030 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,600 world's rich coming together to fund a 1031 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:43,976 Nazi war machine which was meant to 1032 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,600 protect them from the Soviets. the Duke 1033 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,076 of Edinburgh, Prince Philip, practically admitted this 1034 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,333 when he said in those days we were 1035 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,976 anti-communist because the Russians 1036 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,533 killed half my bloody family and when 1037 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:00,976 this cabal of secret Nazis got together 1038 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,976 to discuss how they were going to pay 1039 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,600 for this Nazi war machine because rich 1040 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,667 people never accept a loss they hired a 1041 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:09,976 psychopath 1042 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,733 Hitler who they knew would go along with 1043 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:14,976 their building concentration camps so 1044 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:16,976 that slave labour would pay for all the 1045 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,976 planes and the tanks and the guns and 1046 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:19,976 you can see in the more intelligent 1047 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,733 movies from that period like Hitchcock's 1048 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,733 saboteur that the artists and writers of 1049 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,733 that time knew the rich were fascist and 1050 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:31,976 completely understood what they were 1051 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:33,976 really up to why is it that you sneer 1052 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:34,976 every time you refer to this country 1053 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,976 you've done pretty well here I don't get 1054 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:37,976 it 1055 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:38,976 no you wouldn't you're one of the ardent 1056 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:40,976 believers a good American all their 1057 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,976 millions like you people that climb 1058 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,733 along without asking questions I hate to 1059 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,976 use the word stupid but it seems to be 1060 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,976 the only one that applies the great 1061 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,733 masses the moron millions well there are 1062 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:55,976 a few of us who were unwilling to just 1063 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,600 troop along a few of us who are clever 1064 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:00,976 enough to see that there's much more to 1065 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,976 be done and just live small complacent 1066 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,667 lives a few of us in America who desire 1067 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:07,976 a more 1068 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,600 profitable type of government when you 1069 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,600 think about it Mr. Kane the competence 1070 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:15,976 of totalitarian nations is much higher 1071 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,733 than ours they get things done yeah they 1072 00:46:21,000 -->

00:46:27,976 off of gold plate it's a great 1076 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:29,976 philosophy I neither intend to be bombed 1077 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:31,067 nor Sun Mr. Kane 1078 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,733 that's why I'm leaving now and if things 1079 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,667 don't go right for you if we should win 1080 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,533 then I'll come back perhaps I can

girl we all have different 1084 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,600 tastes as you can see only I'm willing 1085 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,467 to back my tastes with the necessary 1086 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:02,733 force where was the Mafia while all this 1087 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,467 was going on well a great deal which 1088 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:09,976 historians have learned recently 1089 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,867 especially from sources like 1090 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:13,976 double-cross the book written by Sam 1091 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:15,976 Giancana's brother has made it clear 1092 00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,667 that the Mafia was much the same as the 1093 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:20,976 so called German economic miracle and 1094 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:22,976 the American Finance Nazi war machine in 1095 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,600 concentration camps the mob in reality 1096 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:28,976 was a very different animal from the 1097 00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:30,976 worn portrayed by the movies and the 1098 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,733 media American feature films have tended 1099 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:37,976 to focus on the exploits of gangsters 1100 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:39,976 like Richard came the famous crime 1101 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:41,976 busting Chicago cop who was planted in 1102 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:43,976 the police force to be a spy for 1103 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:45,976 Giancana and hoods like Charles 1104 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,976 Nicoletti and Milwaukee Phil Alderisio. 1105 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,467 Two of his favorite hit men who 1106 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:52,976 built their own hit-mobile so they could shoot 1107 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,467 people from the back of a moving car. 1108 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:57,976 amongst many other atrocities this pair 1109 00:47:58,000 --> 00:47:59,976 committed was one in which they forced 1110 00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:01,976 the head of Billy McCarthy into a vise 1111 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,533 and squeezed until his eyeball popped 1112 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:06,976 out an incident which a certain American 1113 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:08,976 film director felt was so entertaining 1114 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,733 he included it in one of his movies what 1115 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,976 most people have failed to realize 1116 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:16,976 however is that in most cases the Mafia 1117 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:18,976 chieftains who actually ran organized 1118 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:20,400 crime did not approve 1119 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:22,976 generally speaking of these acts of 1120 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:24,976 gross brutality not that they gave a 1121 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:26,976 damn about morals but the cleverest 1122 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,667 amongst them like Paul the waiter Ricca 1123 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,467 realized that sensationalized events 1124 00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:34,976 like the st. Valentine's Day Massacre 1125 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,600 produce public outrage and a crackdown 1126 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:39,800 on their illegal activities 1127 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,667 Rico realized that the effectiveness of 1128 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,667 mobsters like Diamond Joe Esposito came 1129 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,533 from keeping a low profile and it was 1130 00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:51,976 the Mafia bosses who learn this lesson 1131 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,667 best Santo Trafficante and Sam Giancana 1132 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:56,976 in particular who in later years became 1133 00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,333 the most successful even today few 1134 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:01,976 Americans appreciate the extent to which 1135 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:03,976 their country was being controlled by 1136 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,467 organized crime in the 1930s the mob 1137 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:09,976 were in total control of Hollywood 1138 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,533 because all the union labor needed to 1139 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,600 make films carpenters set construction 1140 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,733 catering they were all under the control 1141 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,667 of the mob in particular the control of 1142 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:24,976 the Teamsters union the drivers and 1143 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:26,976 haulage people who made essential 1144 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,667 deliveries to absolutely everyone meant 1145 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,976 that virtually all American business was 1146 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,976 caught in the web of mafia racketeering 1147 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,533 studio bosses like Harry Cohn, Louie B 1148 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,667 Meyer and the Warner Brothers knew they 1149 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:41,976 had to play along to get anything done 1150 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,467 at all the big studio heads like all 1151 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:47,976 rich businessmen found they were forced 1152 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:49,976 to become friends with Mafia dons and 1153 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,267 the individual who exploited this 1154 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:54,976 situation most effectively was a 1155 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:56,976 gangster a few people have ever heard of 1156 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,467 Murray the camel Humphreys generally 1157 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:02,976 speaking the ethnically Italian 1158 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:04,976 gangsters of this period were coarse 1159 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,733 brutal and most importantly ignorant men 1160 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,733 they had no education they couldn't hold 1161 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:12,976 an intelligent conversation because 1162 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:14,976 they'd spent no time in school Don 1163 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:16,000 Corleone 1164 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,667 I am honored and grateful that you have 1165 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,400 invited me to your daughter wedding 1166 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,533 wedding this maid doing business with 1167 00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:34,976 refined and sophisticated entrepreneurs 1168 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,533 difficult not to say embarrassing and 1169 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,400 Sam Giancana was quick to spot this 1170 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:42,976 so whenever a business deal needed to be 1171 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:44,976 made by someone with style and 1172 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,600 sophistication he would send along his 1173 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:49,976 silver tongued Welshman Marie the camel 1174 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:51,976 so cold because he was known for being 1175 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,133 sartorial and for cutting a - an 1176 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,467 expensive camel hair coats Humphreys 1177 00:50:58,000 --> 00:50:59,976 became a crucial figure during the 1178 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,667 pre-war period because his contact with 1179 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:04,976 the luminaries of Hollywood meant he 1180 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:06,976 received invitations from senior 1181 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:08,976 politicians who wanted to rub shoulders 1182 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:10,976 with stars like Clark Gable George Raft 1183 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,533 Cary Grant Gary Cooper Marilyn Monroe 1184 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:17,976 and Frank Sinatra all of whom were mafia 1185 00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,533 controlled and used by the mob as bog 1186 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,733 men moving colossal sums of money around 1187 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,600 the country because Giancana cynically 1188 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,976 realized the authorities were too 1189 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:30,976 starstruck to ever check their luggage 1190 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:32,976 he even used a priest for the same 1191 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,467 purpose who we referred to us Father 1192 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:38,733 cash and just as the priest was happy to 1193 00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:41,976 take his percentage so the politicians 1194 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,667 who Giancana always maintained with the 1195 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:46,976 easiest to corrupt were happy to do the 1196 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,733 same in Esposito his time he had boasted 1197 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,600 of buying votes for Calvin Coolidge by 1198 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:55,976 the time of World War two Sam Giancana 1199 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:57,976 was boasting to his younger brother 1200 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:00,533 we own the white house he was adamant 1201 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:04,976 that every state governor congressman 1202 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:06,976 and senior judge in the country was on 1203 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:08,976 the take and the more was most 1204 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:10,976 spectacular success as they sought 1205 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,467 control over all the big players was 1206 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,733 their corrupting of FBI director J Edgar 1207 00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,600 Hoover it's become fairly widely known 1208 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:20,976 in recent years that Hoover was a 1209 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,467 transvestite homosexual what is less 1210 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:25,976 well known is the elaborate scheme he 1211 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,533 dreamed of for accepting mafia bribes 1212 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,976 what he used to do was to go to the 1213 00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:33,600 $2.00 window at the racetrack where he 1214 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:34,976 was photographed many times by the press 1215 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,733 to give himself a clean upstanding image 1216 00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,600 what the Pressman didn't know was that 1217 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:42,976 he always took along a crooked emissary 1218 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:44,976 who placed huge bets which ran into the 1219 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,467 thousands at another window on races 1220 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,976 which were fixed by the mob boss Frank 1221 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,733 Costello by keeping Hoover supplied with 1222 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:54,976 millions in winnings and holding on a 1223 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:56,976 compromising photographs of the FBI 1224 00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:58,976 chief having sex with his lover Clyde 1225 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,533 Tolson which several CIA agents claim 1226 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:03,976 they've seen the Mafia had American at 1227 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,467 law enforcement entirely under their 1228 00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,667 control so the question then is what do 1229 00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:12,976 you do with that kind of power the 1230 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:13,976 answer is that when you're the American 1231 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,600 Mafia you routinely wipe out what they 1232 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,533 call do-gooders. this is how organized 1233 00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:22,976 crime has influenced American society 1234 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:24,976 for nearly a century if a decent man 1235 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:26,976 becomes a rising star in politics and 1236 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:28,976 looks as if he might try to make a 1237 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:30,976 better life for ordinary people they 1238 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:32,976 simply kill him as a matter of routine 1239 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:34,976 and in the book they wrote together 1240 00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,667 Chuck and Sam Giancana Jr. are it pains 1241 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,976 to point out that a classic early case 1242 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,600 of this practice was the assassination 1243 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,067 of Anton Cermak sure mark was a 1244 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,600 democratic politician who had tried to 1245 00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:52,976 crack down on Al Capone's bootlegging 1246 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,976 operations many felt he would go on to 1247 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:56,976 become a great president himself until 1248 00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:58,976 he was shot while on stage with FDR 1249 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,400 by Giuseppe Zangara after the murders 1250 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:04,976 Zangara claimed it was a political act 1251 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:06,976 and he ought to be entitled to clemency 1252 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:08,976 because he simply hated all rich people 1253 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:10,976 but this was actually what he'd simply 1254 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:13,467 been told to say by the mob who were 1255 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,667 using him as a fall guy when he went to 1256 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:18,976 the electric chair Sam Giancana turned 1257 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:19,976 to his brother and expressed his 1258 00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:22,733 pleasure and how nice and neat the whole 1259 00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:24,976 affair had been and he further explained 1260 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:26,976 that choosing a patsy to wipe out a 1261 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:28,976 politician who was a do-gooder was 1262 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:30,976 something the Italian mafia had been 1263 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:32,000 doing forever 1264 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,733 it was a practice as old as the Sicilian 1265 00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:37,976 Hills and he was amazed at how the Mafia 1266 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,533 kept getting away with it because you 1267 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,733 really would think people would catch on 1268 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,533 this was 1935 you have a decent chief 1269 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:51,467 executive murdered in broad daylight 1270 00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,400 shot by a party who is later killed 1271 00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:57,976 himself by the authorities does this 1272 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:00,667 sound familiar however even in show max 1273 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,667 time the mob could not be said to be in 1274 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:07,976 complete control of American life 1275 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:09,976 because while they control the streets 1276 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:11,976 through their influence over politics 1277 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:13,976 and the justice system they were not yet 1278 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,733 in control of the United States military 1279 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:19,667 or its mainstream media tragically this 1280 00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:21,976 all started to change with a series of 1281 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,976 events which began with the scuttling of 1282 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,533 the SS Normandie by a Manhattan-based 1283 00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:29,467 Nazi agent this was February the 9th 1284 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,667 1942 and having just joined the war the 1285 00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:35,976 United States was trying to keep its 1286 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,976 allies supplied with vital war material 1287 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:39,976 using convoys which were loaded on the 1288 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:41,976 waterfront and sailed almost every day 1289 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,733 out of New York Harbor as everyone knows 1290 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:46,976 many fell prey to the wolf packs of 1291 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:48,976 German u-boats and the Normandy had been 1292 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:49,976 designed for much greater speed 1293 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:51,976 specifically so that she could outrun 1294 00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,667 them when she fell to sabotage it was a 1295 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:56,976 colossal blow to the Allied war effort 1296 00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:58,976 and in response a naval intelligence 1297 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,333 officer Anthony Marlowe decided to 1298 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:02,976 enlist the help of the New York Mafia 1299 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:04,976 because he knew they were in control of 1300 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,467 all commercial activity on the docks 1301 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:09,976 the subterfuge by foreign intelligence 1302 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,600 agents east but the price America paid 1303 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,333 was calamitous because getting the 1304 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:19,733 Mafia's help and getting permission from 1305 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,133 the boss of bosses Charles Lucky Lucario. 1306 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,467 it is one of history's great ironies 1307 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,600 that the United States government when 1308 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:30,976 crawling to the Mafia for help at a 1309 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:32,976 moment when the mob themselves had just 1310 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:33,976 been severely weakened and could have 1311 00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:35,976 been crushed all together by an 1312 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:37,976 administration with enough political 1313 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:40,400 will the notorious Luciano had just 1314 00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:42,976 started a 40 year prison sentence in 1315 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,533 Great Meadow penitentiary and most of 1316 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:47,976 his Sicilian gangsters back home were 1317 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:49,976 already behind bars having been caught 1318 00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,400 up in Mussolini's Mafia purge. being 1319 00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,733 himself Italian Mussolini knew there was 1320 00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:57,976 only one way to deal with the Mafia and 1321 00:56:58,000 --> 00:56:59,976 when he came to power he ordered his 1322 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:00,976 "Iron Prefect" 1323 00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,667 Cesare Mori to simply lock up all the 1324 00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:05,976 Mafia families in Sicily which wasn't 1325 00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:07,976 exactly difficult because everybody knew 1326 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:10,733 who they were. of course after the Allied 1327 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:12,976 invasion of Sicily Marsley then 1328 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:14,976 compounded his error by choosing 1329 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:16,976 Sicilian Americans like New York mayor 1330 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,600 Charles Poletti and OSS officer Joseph 1331 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:21,976 Russo whose father was born in Corleone 1332 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,333 to head AMGOT, the Allied Military 1333 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:26,976 Government whose job it was to restore 1334 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:29,667 community cohesion on the island and of 1335 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,976 course their way of doing this was not 1336 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,667 only to let all the mafiosi out of jail 1337 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:37,467 they even made known mob bosses like 1338 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,733 Genco Russo and Don Calogero Vizzini into 1339 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:42,976 the heads of local government and gave 1340 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,533 them full civilian and military power 1341 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:47,000 over the island 1342 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:50,976 so this was the accident of history 1343 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:52,976 through which the Mafia began its 1344 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:54,976 relationship with American military 1345 00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:57,533 intelligence it was a catastrophe for 1346 00:57:58,000 --> 00:57:59,976 Italy which has been ruled over by 1347 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,400 organized crime ever since it was a 1348 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:04,976 catastrophe for Sicily which suffered a 1349 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:06,976 brutal murder every three days in the 1350 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,733 post-war period and it was a catastrophe 1351 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:12,733 for America which saw many wants vibrant 1352 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:14,976 communities particularly in New Jersey 1353 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:16,976 how the heart ripped out of them by 1354 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,600 mafia extortion and drug dealing Lucky 1355 00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:22,976 Luciano was deported after being 1356 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:24,976 released from jail and having found a 1357 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:25,976 kindred spirit in another secret 1358 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:27,976 organization the newly created Central 1359 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,976 Intelligence Agency he was then able to 1360 00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:31,976 combine the activities over organized 1361 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:33,976 crime particularly international drug 1362 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:35,976 running with smuggling of American-made 1363 00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:38,533 weapons this unholy alliance gave the 1364 00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:41,533 world its first ever pirates who flew 1365 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:42,976 airplanes that's what these people 1366 00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,600 became pirates with aeroplanes the CIA 1367 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:50,733 became the world's primary import-export 1368 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:52,976 of narcotics and used the colossal 1369 00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:54,976 profits to fuel wars around the world 1370 00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:56,976 thereby enabling their friends in the 1371 00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:58,976 military industrial complex to sell yet 1372 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:01,333 more weapons under the disguise of 1373 00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:03,976 liberal democracy these men who had 1374 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,533 financed Hitler became the enemies of 1375 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:08,976 liberty and democracy on a planet-wide 1376 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:11,667 basis and as if to underline their Nazi 1377 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,600 credentials they also hired all of the 1378 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,976 former German Nazi intelligence officers 1379 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:19,976 like ran Hood Galen who were out of a 1380 00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:21,976 job at the end of the war and brought 1381 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:22,976 them into the fold at the beginning of 1382 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:24,976 the Cold War even though they were 1383 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:26,976 perfectly well aware that these men had 1384 00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:28,976 committed genocide and should have been 1385 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:31,267 prosecuted as war criminals their 1386 00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:33,976 attitude quite clearly was that as they 1387 00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:35,976 had paid for Nazi Germany they were 1388 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:36,976 entitled to pick over its carcass in any 1389 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,400 way they chose this was yet another 1390 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:41,976 political catastrophe for the United 1391 00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:43,976 States because these were the people who 1392 00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:45,976 put together the notorious Operation 1393 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:46,001 Paperclip 1394 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:47,976 which rounded up all of the Nazi rocket 1395 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,733 scientists like Wernher Von Braun and put 1396 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:52,976 them to work for their new American Nazi 1397 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:53,976 owners to give them for the first time 1398 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:54,976 in human history 1399 00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:56,800 ICBMs with nuclear warheads 1400 00:59:58,000 --> 00:59:59,976 they became the first men ever to have 1401 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:01,976 the power to destroy the whole world at 1402 01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:03,976 the touch of a button and it was clear 1403 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:05,976 to many observers at the time that it 1404 01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:08,667 all rather went to their heads I can no 1405 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:11,400 longer sit back and allow communist 1406 01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:14,533 infiltration communist indoctrination 1407 01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:17,867 communist subversion and the 1408 01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:23,533 International communist conspiracy to 1409 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,667 SAP and in purified all of our precious 1410 01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:30,467 bodily fluids they saw themselves as 1411 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:35,976 Giants who were looking down and 1412 01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:37,976 laughing upon this planet of tiny fools 1413 01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:39,976 who were stupid enough to go on and on 1414 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:41,976 killing each other while they have sold 1415 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:43,976 arms to both sides throughout the Second 1416 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:44,976 World War 1417 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:46,976 Focke-Wulf airplanes which bombed 1418 01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,600 American soldiers were manufactured by 1419 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:52,667 ITT Corporation. allied sailors were drowning 1420 01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,467 in a freezing North Atlantic because 1421 01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:58,976 their convoys were sunk by guns of Nazi 1422 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:00,933 battleships which swiveled on 1423 01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:02,976 American-made ball bearings. American 1424 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:04,976 soldiers were crushed under the wheels 1425 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:06,976 of tanks and trucks made by Henry Ford 1426 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:08,976 and John Rockefeller and gassed to death 1427 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,733 by the same people Sam Giancana took the 1428 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:13,976 trouble to explain how this cynical 1429 01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:15,976 process worked by composing just worn 1430 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,667 terse simple sentence which his brother 1431 01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,467 wrote down for posterity people give 1432 01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:23,976 their lives he said just so a few fat 1433 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:25,976 cats can make a killing and this was 1434 01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:28,667 precisely what Smedley Butler had tried 1435 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:29,976 to explain to the world with his book 1436 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:31,333 war is just a racket 1437 01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,533 at the war's end the rich elite found 1438 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:37,976 fortune continuing to smile on them 1439 01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:40,533 firstly they were able to control the 1440 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:42,976 utter farce of the Nuremberg trials 1441 01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:44,976 which should have hanged every single 1442 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:46,976 American merchant banker and leading 1443 01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:48,933 industrialist as it was their 1444 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:50,976 contribution to world war two remained 1445 01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:53,467 hidden from public scrutiny and they 1446 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:54,976 were even allowed to gerrymander light 1447 01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:56,976 sentences for their German Nazi friends 1448 01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:58,267 like Hjalmar Schacht 1449 01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:00,976 who got off with just a few years and 1450 01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,733 lately retired as a billionaire but best 1451 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:05,976 of all was at the worn man who might 1452 01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:07,976 have been a Czech to their power passed 1453 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:10,467 away as soon as the war was over and 1454 01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:13,667 with President Roosevelt gone and their 1455 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,400 first Nazi glove puppet Hitler also 1456 01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:18,976 deceased it became necessary for 1457 01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:20,976 Prescott Bush to find another young 1458 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,600 politician to sponsor in true American 1459 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:26,333 fashion he decided to advertise he 1460 01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:29,976 placed an ad in the LA Times which 1461 01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:31,976 candidly explained that a group of rich 1462 01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:32,976 businessmen was seeking a young 1463 01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:35,533 ambitious immoral and most definitely 1464 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:37,976 malleable politician who might one day 1465 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:39,867 run for president the ad was 1466 01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:41,976 deliberately worded in this cynical way 1467 01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:43,976 because they knew that only an evil 1468 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,733 slimy and completely incorrigible little 1469 01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:48,976 creep would ever dream of applying for 1470 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:49,976 the position that was what they wanted 1471 01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,667 and that was what they got in the shape 1472 01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,533 of a certain Richard Nixon here being 1473 01:02:57,000 --> 01:02:58,976 congratulated on his success by his new 1474 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:00,976 master Prescott Bush and not long after 1475 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:03,467 this picture was taken in 1947 Nixon 1476 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:05,976 engaged the services of a Jewish 1477 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:07,976 gangster who was working for Sam 1478 01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:10,600 Giancana called Jacob Rubinstein a man 1479 01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:12,976 whom the world would one day come to 1480 01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,067 know as Jack Ruby having bought 1481 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:19,976 themselves a new political puppet this 1482 01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:21,976 nefarious band of twentieth-century 1483 01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:23,976 robber barons and now took stock of 1484 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:25,976 their situation the Hitler project as 1485 01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:28,533 this ritual he called it could hardly 1486 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:30,976 have turned out very much better their 1487 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:32,976 businesses had made colossal profits 1488 01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:35,733 Prescott had got his Union Bank back the 1489 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:37,976 communist menace they so wanted to 1490 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:39,976 contain had almost sank back in the 1491 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:41,976 Middle Ages with the ravages of war and 1492 01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:43,976 best of all was that they had now 1493 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:45,976 achieved the very world domination which 1494 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,667 Hitler had dreamed about they knew that 1495 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:49,976 in this new age of modern 1496 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:51,976 telecommunications in high-speed jet 1497 01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:53,976 travel they had become the first group 1498 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:55,976 of robber barons in human history to 1499 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:57,976 dominate the entire globe because they 1500 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:00,733 realized there was now absolutely no one 1501 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:01,976 left who could stop them from doing 1502 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:03,976 whatever they wanted to do next 1503 01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:05,976 however they also realized that bombed 1504 01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,667 out and dilapidated Europe would not be 1505 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:09,976 able to bear another war for many 1506 01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,533 decades this was why they now decided 1507 01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:15,976 that their obscene business profits 1508 01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:17,976 could only keep coming in if they moved 1509 01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:19,976 their game of phony war into the third 1510 01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:22,600 world and this was how the CIA came to 1511 01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:23,976 instigate 1512 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:25,976 throughout the Middle East Southeast 1513 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,667 Asia and Central America Chuck Giancana 1514 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:31,976 well remembers a conversation that she 1515 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:33,976 had with his mafia boss brother Sam 1516 01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:34,976 during this period in which he 1517 01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:36,976 questioned him with genuine anxiety 1518 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,467 about the Communist Menace spreading 1519 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:41,976 throughout the world the TV news is 1520 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:43,976 painting a sinister picture of a Soviet 1521 01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:45,976 enemy his millions of fifth columnist s' 1522 01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:47,976 which was intent upon taking over the 1523 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:50,467 entire planet hadn't he heard of the 1524 01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:52,976 domino theory wasn't he worried about it 1525 01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:55,600 in response Sam Giancana simply smiled 1526 01:04:56,000 --> 01:04:58,733 at his kid brothers naivety and he asked 1527 01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:00,976 him didn't you realize that the United 1528 01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:02,976 States by which he meant the shadow 1529 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:03,976 government's not the official ones 1530 01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:04,976 wanted to take over the world as well 1531 01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:07,733 and the whole idea of communism was just 1532 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,733 the excuse that we used to do it he told 1533 01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:12,976 him that in China they had already 1534 01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:14,976 succeeded in getting a member of the 1535 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:15,976 Chinese mafia 1536 01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:18,733 a brutal gangster called Mao Zedong into 1537 01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:21,976 power just so they could sell more 1538 01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:24,533 cigarettes in Asia communism was just 1539 01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:26,976 their excuse and it was pretty much the 1540 01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:27,976 same story in the Philippines with a 1541 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:29,976 crooked politician the Mafia leave it 1542 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:32,333 into power called Ferdinand Marcos 1543 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:35,733 as for the United States big brother Sam 1544 01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:37,976 explained that the five cuts were fully 1545 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:39,976 aware that Americans will do anything 1546 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:41,976 for patriotism hence you must always 1547 01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:44,600 provide them with an enemy a boogeyman 1548 01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:47,600 they won't overwork themselves just to 1549 01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:50,600 make huge profits for fat cats for any 1550 01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:52,976 other reason so new enemies had to be 1551 01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:55,267 found or created this is what Joe 1552 01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,976 McCarthy's Reds under the bed scare had 1553 01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:00,667 really been all about and they used the 1554 01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,600 same excuse in Laos Chile Guatemala El 1555 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:06,667 Salvador Iran Honduras Vietnam and Cuba 1556 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:08,976 if a small country refused to go along 1557 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:10,976 with American business interests which 1558 01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:11,976 basically meant with the rights of 1559 01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:13,976 Western multinationals to pay slave 1560 01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,467 wages to third world peasant farmers 1561 01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:18,976 growing commodities like tobacco or 1562 01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:20,976 sugar or fruit they simply labeled them 1563 01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:22,933 as communist assassinated the 1564 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,467 democratically elected head of state 1565 01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:27,976 with teams recruited from their secret 1566 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:28,976 societies the Central Intelligence 1567 01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,467 Agency in the Mafia and put in a man 1568 01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:33,976 favorable to their interests as with the 1569 01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:36,733 Shah of Iran. simple and even more to this 1570 01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:37,976 Giancana 1571 01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:39,976 explained to his brother that the 1572 01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:41,976 political game at home had to be played 1573 01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:43,976 in the same way as the phony war game 1574 01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:46,733 abroad the lesson was that a businessman 1575 01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:49,733 always protects his interests by playing 1576 01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:52,533 both sides Sam Giancana knew that the 1577 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:55,533 Second World War had been exactly the 1578 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:57,976 same as all the CIA's covert wars during 1579 01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:00,600 the 1950s they were conducted in order 1580 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:02,976 to make more money for the super-rich 1581 01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:04,976 because in every case they were selling 1582 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:07,600 weapons and fuel to both sides just as 1583 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:10,467 they had the Germans on the American 1584 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:13,667 mainland this cynical attitude manifest 1585 01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:15,976 itself in the way the gangsters 1586 01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:17,976 supported the campaign's of both leading 1587 01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:18,976 candidates in every political 1588 01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:20,976 head-to-head in order to make sure that 1589 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,667 whoever got elected he was always their 1590 01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:26,533 man and on their side so this was the 1591 01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:33,467 real political world which the young 1592 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,667 senator John F Kennedy became a part of 1593 01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:39,067 in 1950s America it was a world 1594 01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:43,533 ruled by a super-rich cabal of secret 1595 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,400 Nazis who had built the fascist war 1596 01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:49,600 machine and concentration camps purely 1597 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:51,976 to protect themselves and their money 1598 01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,467 from socialist Russia having avoided 1599 01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:58,533 prosecution for the greatest crime in 1600 01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:01,600 human history they were confident that 1601 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:03,976 they could kill anyone and get away with 1602 01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:06,533 it particularly if it was someone who 1603 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:08,976 might interfere with their power to 1604 01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:10,976 instigate phony Wars in order to make 1605 01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:13,333 huge fortunes by lending money and 1606 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:16,733 selling weapons to both sides the war in 1607 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:20,667 which he himself had bravely fought was 1608 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:23,600 a sham and even John F Kennedy did not 1609 01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,733 understand this or perhaps we should say 1610 01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:28,976 that he didn't fully understand what was 1611 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:31,400 going on he and his younger brother 1612 01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:35,733 Bobby was certainly all too keenly aware 1613 01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:37,976 of the extent to which their country was 1614 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:39,976 in the grip of organized crime because 1615 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:41,976 their own father the patriarch Joseph P 1616 01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:44,533 Kennedy had made his personal fortune 1617 01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:46,976 from running illegal liquor during the 1618 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:48,976 days of prohibition activities which 1619 01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:51,667 earned him the nickname bootlegger Joel 1620 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:54,467 experience people are aware that the 1621 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:56,976 tendency of each new generation to 1622 01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:57,976 reject the ideas of the previous 1623 01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,667 generation is an abiding characteristic 1624 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:02,976 in human affairs and it is perfectly 1625 01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,533 plain that with Jack and Bobby it had 1626 01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:07,976 the effect of making both men highly 1627 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:09,976 principled their own father had 1628 01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:11,976 associated with crooks and gangsters and 1629 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:13,976 it was quite clear from their style in 1630 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:15,976 their outlook that he had made a 1631 01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:17,976 commitment to make up for the sins of 1632 01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:19,976 their father by rejecting this sinister 1633 01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:20,976 world of hoods and crooks and corrupt 1634 01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:23,600 politicians by being honest and decent 1635 01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:25,976 if you take a look at any group photo 1636 01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:27,976 from the early days it's clear these men 1637 01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:30,533 are being determinedly clean-cut with 1638 01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:32,976 the accent heavily on the clean part 1639 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,667 they knew their fathers generation were 1640 01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:37,976 dirty it couldn't be more obvious that 1641 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:39,976 they were determined to be the opposite 1642 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,667 the question was how were they going to 1643 01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:45,600 free themselves and their country from 1644 01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:46,976 the entanglements of the crooked 1645 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,600 politicians and the psychopathic Mafia 1646 01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:51,976 dons who together were controlling the 1647 01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:53,976 whole of American life like some 1648 01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:54,976 multi-layer 1649 01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:57,600 fascist octopus how they were going to 1650 01:09:58,000 --> 01:09:59,976 pull this off with something they were 1651 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,976 discussing ad nauseam when in the late 1652 01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:03,976 1950s they found out their father was in 1653 01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:05,976 big trouble a contract had been taken 1654 01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:07,976 out on Joe Kennedy's life by the Purple 1655 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:10,533 Gang the Jewish mafia of New York who 1656 01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:11,976 had accused him of swindling them out of 1657 01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:14,667 a fortune Joe Kennedy was really scared 1658 01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:16,976 and he turned for help toward the one 1659 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:18,976 man in North America who he knew had the 1660 01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:20,976 power to get the contract called off Sam 1661 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:23,733 Giancana Giancana had done business with 1662 01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:26,600 Kennedy for years so he agreed to help 1663 01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:29,533 but he wanted something for it he was 1664 01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:31,976 all too aware of Joe's political 1665 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,333 ambitions for his son and of JFK's 1666 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:36,976 outstanding good looks he wanted 1667 01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:38,976 assurances that if Jack one day made it 1668 01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:40,976 to the White House Joe Kennedy would see 1669 01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:43,733 to it that the heat the two brothers had 1670 01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:44,976 been trying to turn up on the Mafia 1671 01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:47,533 would be turned down and according to 1672 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:50,400 Chuck and Sam Giancana Jr. Joseph B 1673 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:51,976 Kennedy just to save his own skin 1674 01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:54,733 agreed you tell if anything about any of 1675 01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:56,976 your operation or he doesn't like giggle 1676 01:10:57,000 --> 01:10:58,976 every time I out here question the Klan 1677 01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:00,976 dads because I believe my answer might 1678 01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:02,976 tend incriminating I thought only little 1679 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:05,533 girls giggled with in this way a very 1680 01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:07,976 confused situation was created because 1681 01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:09,976 Sam Giancana the very kind of mob boss 1682 01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:12,600 from the Kennedys had been fighting so 1683 01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:14,976 hard through the McClellan committee to 1684 01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:17,733 put in jail now thought that they should 1685 01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:20,733 and would be grateful to him it was this 1686 01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:23,533 expectation and this misunderstanding 1687 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:25,976 which now led Giancana to try to draw 1688 01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,600 the Kennedys more and more in his dark 1689 01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:30,976 world something which he appeared to be 1690 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:32,976 succeeding with in the way that first 1691 01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,467 Peter Lawford and then Frank Sinatra 1692 01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:38,667 established relationships with both men 1693 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,133 Lawford married Kennedy's sister 1694 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,533 everyone is voting for Jackie Sinatra 1695 01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:51,976 was putting together campaigning jingles 1696 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:53,976 and it must have seemed to many insiders 1697 01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,667 at the time that when Sam Giancana went 1698 01:11:57,000 --> 01:11:58,976 around boasting that as usual he had 1699 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:00,976 everything under control and that when 1700 01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:02,976 Jack got to the White House it was going 1701 01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:04,976 to be a dream ticket for the Mafia that 1702 01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:07,733 it must all be true his boys appeared to 1703 01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:10,667 be partying together and those who were 1704 01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:13,600 in the know were aware that JFK had at 1705 01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,467 least some sort of relationship with 1706 01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:18,976 Judith Campbell Exner. Sam Giancana is 1707 01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:21,600 girlfriend what we haven't known until 1708 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:23,976 now is that JFK was hoodwinking Giancana 1709 01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:25,000 all along. 1710 01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:28,976 the role that Judy Campbell played was 1711 01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:31,733 mostly that of a go-between what Kennedy 1712 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:33,976 was doing through her was given Giancana 1713 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:36,533 FBI reports on mob bosses to make him 1714 01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:38,976 think that law enforcement were not all 1715 01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:40,976 that well-informed about the Mafia scams 1716 01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:41,976 and their movements 1717 01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:43,976 nor even terribly interested what 1718 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:46,600 Giancana did not know was that the FBI 1719 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:48,976 reports he was receiving were carefully 1720 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:50,976 selected and most definitely incomplete 1721 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:53,667 Kennedy was not helping Giancana he was 1722 01:12:55,000 --> 01:12:56,976 not keeping him in the picture what he 1723 01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:58,976 was doing was pulling the wool over his 1724 01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:01,400 eyes for the first time in his life 1725 01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:04,400 sound Giancana was perplexed and he 1726 01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:05,976 became more confused when there was a 1727 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:08,600 certain freezing over of relations JFK 1728 01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:10,976 abruptly ended his relationship with 1729 01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:13,733 Sinatra and Judy Campbell suddenly found 1730 01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:16,667 the White House were refusing her calls 1731 01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:18,933 even more to this Giancana as 1732 01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:20,976 limitations were shown up in the way he 1733 01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:22,976 completely failed to comprehend that 1734 01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:25,400 Kennedy truly was decent and honest 1735 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:28,976 he apparently had many conversations 1736 01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:31,600 with Murray the camel Humphreys around 1737 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:33,976 this time in which both were reassuring 1738 01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:35,976 each other that Kennedy's white knight 1739 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:38,600 lifestyle was just a political game to 1740 01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:40,976 make him look good quite clearly the 1741 01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:41,976 cynical outlook was the product of 1742 01:13:42,000 --> 01:13:43,976 living in their dark and corrupt world 1743 01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:45,976 they had never known an honest and 1744 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:47,976 decent man because in the Mafia there's 1745 01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:49,000 no such thing 1746 01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:52,667 there is no record what was said during 1747 01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:54,976 the three meetings with JFK Hans 1748 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:56,976 Giancana and his father at the 1749 01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:58,976 Fontainebleau Hotel just prior to the 1750 01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:00,976 1960 general election but it does now 1751 01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:03,733 seem that in this most titanic battle of 1752 01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:05,976 wits between the craftiest criminal in 1753 01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:06,976 America and the most brilliant 1754 01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:08,976 politician the world had ever seen 1755 01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:11,667 Kennedy had won he had played the Mafia 1756 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:14,600 at their own game and played it better 1757 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:17,600 why did John F Kennedy do this because 1758 01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:21,733 he must have known just what a dangerous 1759 01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,333 game he was playing this certainly 1760 01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:26,976 appears to be no doubt now that we 1761 01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:29,733 ourselves are aware of the all-pervading 1762 01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:31,976 influence of organized crime in America 1763 01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:34,667 at that time that this brave and decent 1764 01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:37,400 and honest man had realized that he 1765 01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:39,976 could never get rid of the Mafia and 1766 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:41,976 they dirty fascist friends in politics 1767 01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:43,976 industry and banking without first and 1768 01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:46,667 listing their help he had to trick them 1769 01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:50,600 and with this new understanding we can 1770 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:52,976 now see for the first time was the 1771 01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:54,976 correct perspective the motives 1772 01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:55,976 characters intrigues and diverse 1773 01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:58,733 political interests which were gathering 1774 01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:00,976 against President Kennedy when he took 1775 01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,667 the oath of office organized crime were 1776 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:05,976 fearful of JFK before he ascended to 1777 01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:08,733 power because the shrewdest amongst them 1778 01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:09,976 were getting a sense that he had 1779 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:11,976 outfoxed and outmaneuvered the 1780 01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:14,533 all-powerful Mafia bosses but the big 1781 01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:15,976 mistake researchers have made in the 1782 01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:17,976 past has been to not understand that 1783 01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,600 every American oligarch the big oilman 1784 01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:23,976 the captains of industry the merchant 1785 01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:25,976 bankers the intelligence chiefs were all 1786 01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:28,733 crooks and gangsters as well the biggest 1787 01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:30,976 crook in the land was the head of law 1788 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:33,667 enforcement J Edgar Hoover this is what 1789 01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:34,976 historians have failed to understand 1790 01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,733 until now when JFK appointed his 32 year 1791 01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:39,976 old kid brother to the post of Attorney 1792 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:42,667 General these people collectively froze 1793 01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,733 it now fully hit home the JFK really was 1794 01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:48,533 honest and decent it hit home that he 1795 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:50,976 wanted to make his country as honest and 1796 01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:52,976 decent as he was and that he actually 1797 01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:54,976 believed that with the help of his 1798 01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:56,976 energetic and determined crime-busting 1799 01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:58,800 brother that he could do it 1800 01:15:59,000 --> 01:15:59,976 his attitude of course has stood in 1801 01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:01,976 marked contrast to the man whom Kennedy 1802 01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:03,976 was saddled with as his running mate 1803 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:06,400 anyone who has any doubts about the 1804 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:08,976 moral rectitude of the average American 1805 01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:11,733 politician of that time has only to look 1806 01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:13,976 at the career of Lyndon Baines Johnson 1807 01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:15,976 to see that generally speaking they were 1808 01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:17,976 worse than the Mafia itself from his 1809 01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:20,667 involvement with the box 13 scandal and 1810 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:21,976 through all of his dealings with his 1811 01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:23,976 crooked Texan business associate 1812 01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:26,467 Billy Celeste's LBJ proved again and 1813 01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:28,976 again that he was every bit as in 1814 01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:31,667 scrupulous as any more boss and willing 1815 01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:34,733 to do absolutely anything for power this 1816 01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:36,976 was a man who'd had his own sister 1817 01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:39,733 Josefa murdered by his personal hitman a 1818 01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:41,976 highly intelligent and psychopathic 1819 01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:44,600 killer named Malcolm Wallace who later 1820 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:46,976 shot dead the golf professional John 1821 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:49,533 Douglas Kinser when this case came to 1822 01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:50,976 court it revealed in the American public 1823 01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:52,976 how totally corrupt the justice system 1824 01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:55,600 had become because LBJ was able to get 1825 01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:58,600 Wallace off with a five-year suspended 1826 01:16:59,000 --> 01:16:59,001 sentence 1827 01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,667 found guilty of murder Warren he walked 1828 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:04,667 free that very day this was the sort of 1829 01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:06,976 corruption which was running rife 1830 01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:08,976 through the American political system 1831 01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:10,976 when Fidel Castro overthrew the 1832 01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:11,976 right-wing government of Fulgencio 1833 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:14,467 Batista in 1959 few people are aware 1834 01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:17,976 that by this advanced stage in their 1835 01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:20,667 relationship the CIA and the Mafia were 1836 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:22,976 together employing the Giancana tactic 1837 01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:25,533 of supporting both sides in a war for 1838 01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:27,976 many years beforehand they had been 1839 01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:29,400 supporting Castro and 1840 01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:33,400 not just the Batista regime as many 1841 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:35,976 think by smuggling in both arms on 1842 01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:38,600 mercenaries to aid the peasant farmers 1843 01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:41,400 one of these mercenaries an Italian 1844 01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:42,976 American called Frank Fiorini 1845 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:45,600 later came to play a pivotal role both 1846 01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:47,976 in the assassination and subsequent 1847 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:50,533 cover-up under his assumed name Frank 1848 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:53,067 Sturgis. Sturgis and Castro were 1849 01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:55,976 photographed together many times during 1850 01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:58,533 the Cuban Revolution but after Castro 1851 01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:00,976 enlisted the help of the Russian service 1852 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:03,667 Sturgis turned against him like many in 1853 01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:05,933 the CIA mafia network he felt 1854 01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:07,976 double-crossed when Castro closed the 1855 01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:09,976 owners casinos and nationalized all 1856 01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:11,000 Cuban business 1857 01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:13,976 he therefore joined forces with men like 1858 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:14,976 Bernard barker 1859 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:17,733 Batista's former secret police chief and 1860 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:20,667 other Cuban expats who had fled on mass 1861 01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:23,133 to Miami Florida and who now sat 1862 01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:25,976 together on the American mainland as a 1863 01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:27,976 very disgruntled and highly politicized 1864 01:18:28,000 --> 01:18:29,976 splinter group of course to the American 1865 01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:32,733 Nazis who had bankrolled Hitler this was 1866 01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:35,733 intolerable it was a commercial disaster 1867 01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:38,400 coca-cola had made millions in easy 1868 01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:40,976 profits using dirt cheap Cuban sugar 1869 01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:43,600 grown by dirt poor Cuban peasants they 1870 01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:45,976 were now being told by an upstart third 1871 01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:47,976 world dictator that they would have to 1872 01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:49,976 pay for sugar at the normal market rate 1873 01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:51,976 and the math you were losing millions 1874 01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:53,976 every single day from the loss of 1875 01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:56,733 illegal gambling America's Nazis shallow 1876 01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:58,976 government therefore decided that 1877 01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:01,600 someone was going to have to mold this 1878 01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:03,976 loosely knit group of disgruntled 1879 01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:06,733 anti-Castro Cubans into a crack invasion 1880 01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,533 force to retake the island having put 1881 01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:11,976 their heads together Dulles and Harriman 1882 01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:13,976 and Richard Bissell decided this would 1883 01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:15,976 be an excellent job for Prescott's 1884 01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:18,667 eldest son George Herbert Walker Bush a 1885 01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:20,976 chance for him to prove himself along 1886 01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:22,976 with one of his Texas oil business 1887 01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:25,067 associates Jack Alston Crichton 1888 01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:28,976 together these two recruited and trained 1889 01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:30,976 the Cubans for several terrorist groups 1890 01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:33,533 known as Operation forty, alpha 66 1891 01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:38,133 ZR/Rifle and Operation Mongoose. 1892 01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:41,533 renegade bands of merciless assassins 1893 01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:44,400 who would kill Castro and who could 1894 01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:45,976 later be counted on to eliminate any 1895 01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:48,600 other third world leaders who dared to 1896 01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:50,976 interfere with American commercial 1897 01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:52,976 interests it was this diverse an 1898 01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:54,976 unsavory stream of political intrigue 1899 01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:57,733 which produced President Kennedy's first 1900 01:19:58,000 --> 01:19:59,976 great political crisis the Bay of Pigs 1901 01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:02,667 in 1962 by this time JFK was well aware 1902 01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:07,467 that the CIA was something much more 1903 01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:10,333 like a private firm or a family he 1904 01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:12,976 wasn't surprised when they invaded Cuba 1905 01:20:13,000 --> 01:20:13,976 without his permission 1906 01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:15,976 because he knew they were totally out of 1907 01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:18,667 control his antipathy led him to cancel 1908 01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:20,976 the promised air support and inevitably 1909 01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:22,976 the invasion failed the anti-Castro 1910 01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:25,667 Cubans were mostly captured and Kennedy 1911 01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:27,976 then tried to add insult injury by 1912 01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:29,976 ordering J Edgar Hoover's FBI to close 1913 01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:31,976 down the camps where the Cubans were 1914 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:34,600 trained he even allowed Khrushchev the 1915 01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:37,533 Soviet leader to inspect the camps to 1916 01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:39,976 see they were closed so this could never 1917 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:40,976 happen again 1918 01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:42,976 having only just escaped with his life 1919 01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:44,976 at the Bay of Pigs it was pretty clear 1920 01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:46,976 that Frank Sturgis was more than a 1921 01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,600 little annoyed because Khrushchev says 1922 01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:52,976 don't do this or we're gonna do that you 1923 01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,667 know so he didn't do it and he deserted 1924 01:20:57,000 --> 01:20:58,976 the Bay of Pigs I was involved in the 1925 01:20:59,000 --> 01:20:59,976 Bay of Pigs you got a lot of people who 1926 01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:01,976 size of mines that were killed in the 1927 01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:03,933 Bay of Pigs and I resent that 1928 01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:06,733 don't play political games with me I'm a 1929 01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:08,976 military man I'm a soldier I go fight 1930 01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:11,733 but David if I risk my ass out there and 1931 01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:13,976 I'm getting shot at I don't want some 1932 01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:16,733 stupid ass politician to go ahead and we 1933 01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:19,733 might make deals behind my back where my 1934 01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:21,976 people or maybe myself are going to get 1935 01:21:22,000 --> 01:21:23,600 killed I don't like that 1936 01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:27,976 this then is how the stage was set for 1937 01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:30,600 the Kennedy assassination and when one 1938 01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:32,976 remembers the colossal number of 1939 01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,533 ruthless and hideously brutal men who 1940 01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:37,976 had created this situation it's perhaps 1941 01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:40,733 a little ironic that a peripheral figure 1942 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:41,976 in the cast of characters who actually 1943 01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:43,976 put the plot together was an attractive 1944 01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:46,533 young woman 19 year old Marita Lorenz 1945 01:21:48,000 --> 01:21:50,533 love affair with Fidel Castro and her 1946 01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:52,976 subsequent recruitment as a CIA assassin 1947 01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:55,600 by Frank Sturgis to kill him is a very 1948 01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:56,976 well-known story because it was made 1949 01:21:57,000 --> 01:21:59,400 into a feature film in spite of her 1950 01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:01,976 failure to kill the Cuban leader Lorentz 1951 01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:03,976 continued to associate with the 1952 01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:06,667 assassination squads trained by the CIA 1953 01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:09,667 and it was largely her testimony in the 1954 01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:11,976 spotlight magazine trial after a 1955 01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:14,667 skillful cross-examination by Mark Lane 1956 01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:17,667 which gave us a window through which we 1957 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:19,976 can now see who really participated in 1958 01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:22,533 the Kennedy assassination and who was 1959 01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:25,667 really behind it all first of all after 1960 01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:27,976 the Bay of Pigs invasion Kennedy had 1961 01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:30,600 fired Allen Dulles Richard Bissell and 1962 01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:32,976 General Charles Cabell for essentially 1963 01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:35,667 using the CIA as their personal hit men 1964 01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:38,533 after he found out that Robert Maheu 1965 01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:40,976 had sought Sam Giancana's permission to 1966 01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,733 talk to his under-boss John Roselli about 1967 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:45,976 the possibility of a hit on Fidel Castro 1968 01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:48,733 here you have a government agency funded 1969 01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:51,976 by the American taxpayer associating 1970 01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:53,976 with the very organized crime racket II 1971 01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:56,733 as JFK was trying to put in jail for the 1972 01:22:57,000 --> 01:22:57,976 purpose of carrying out political 1973 01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:00,333 murders the president was incensed 1974 01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:03,976 historians have never been surprised 1975 01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:05,976 that he vowed to smash the CIA into a 1976 01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,733 thousand pieces it hardly takes a genius 1977 01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:10,976 to see why the CIA wanted to kill him 1978 01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:13,533 what is more Jack Austin Crichton and 1979 01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:16,976 the lifelong friends of Allen Dulles the 1980 01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:18,976 Bush family had just recently purchased 1981 01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:21,667 exclusive access to 15 million acres of 1982 01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:24,533 Cuba almost half the entire island in 1983 01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:27,600 order to drill for oil when he came to 1984 01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:29,001 power 1985 01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:31,467 Castro reduced this to a mere 20,000 1986 01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:34,533 acres a colossal investment which now 1987 01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:36,976 failed and which led to Crichton's 1988 01:23:37,000 --> 01:23:38,267 CVOVT oil exploration 1989 01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:41,600 being delisted from the stock exchange 1990 01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:44,267 at the loss of 30 million dollars 1991 01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:47,600 Crichton and George Bush's friends the 1992 01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:49,976 Texas oil billionaires Clint Murchison 1993 01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:51,000 and Haraldson 1994 01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:54,533 Lafayette hunt also knew that Kennedy 1995 01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:56,976 wanted to end their most vital tax break 1996 01:23:57,000 --> 01:23:59,533 the oil depletion allowance and their 1997 01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:01,976 bosom buddy Vice President Lyndon 1998 01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:03,976 Johnson was standing at this time was 1999 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:05,976 wonderful in jail and the other on a 2000 01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:07,976 banana skin due to his involvement in 2001 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:09,976 the corruption scandal now breaking 2002 01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:11,976 around his favorite assistant Bobby 2003 01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:14,667 Baker LBJ knew his life was finished if 2004 01:24:16,000 --> 01:24:17,976 Kennedy lived and he would become 2005 01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:20,733 President himself if Kennedy died so his 2006 01:24:22,000 --> 01:24:23,976 involvement in the plot is hardly 2007 01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:26,533 difficult to understand and even more 2008 01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:28,976 than this the heads both of the US 2009 01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:29,976 military and the military industrial 2010 01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:32,667 complex which supplied them exactly the 2011 01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:35,600 same Nazis who had supported Hitler in 2012 01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:37,976 World War 2 were fully aware that 2013 01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:39,976 Kennedy wanted to pull out of Vietnam in 2014 01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:41,976 a move which would have eventually cost 2015 01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:44,733 them billions in lost weapons sales this 2016 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:46,976 circle of thugs and pirates was 2017 01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:49,667 completed by LBJ's next-door neighbor J 2018 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:52,976 Edgar Hoover who had himself invested 2019 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:54,976 millions in Clint Murchison oil business 2020 01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:57,400 just like this mafia associate Vito 2021 01:24:58,000 --> 01:25:00,667 Genovese say stepping back to look upon 2022 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:03,976 this rogues gallery it really is 2023 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:05,976 remarkable how Kennedy had managed to 2024 01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:07,976 make an enemy out of every single dirty 2025 01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:10,667 Hood every corrupt politician and every 2026 01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:12,976 single Nazi businessman living in the 2027 01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:13,976 country at that time 2028 01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:16,400 it is highly misleading even to see 2029 01:25:18,000 --> 01:25:19,976 these groups are separate because the 2030 01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:21,976 truth is that they were all brutal 2031 01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:23,976 fascists who saw nothing wrong and 2032 01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:25,867 killing to get their own way 2033 01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:28,733 the question now was how were they gonna 2034 01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:31,733 get him because we must never forget the 2035 01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:35,867 generals Admirals Mafia dons 2036 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:38,976 intelligence Chiefs corrupt politicians 2037 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:41,467 and oil billionaires are only people 2038 01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:44,976 none of them wanted to go to the 2039 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:46,976 electric chair for conspiracy to murder 2040 01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:49,733 the president they knew that they had to 2041 01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:52,976 put together a plan which could not fail 2042 01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:55,600 to both kill Kennedy and then cover-up 2043 01:25:56,000 --> 01:25:57,976 afterwards the fact that they did it 2044 01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:00,733 they knew that in men like Frank Sturgis 2045 01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:03,600 his Cuban assassination squads and the 2046 01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:07,600 mafia hitmen working with the CIA they 2047 01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:09,976 had a huge pool of killers to choose 2048 01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:12,667 from who were ready able and willing to 2049 01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:16,667 do the deed all the same how could they 2050 01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:19,976 possibly get to Kennedy because they 2051 01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:21,976 knew that at least in Washington all 2052 01:26:22,000 --> 01:26:23,976 American presidents are extremely well 2053 01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:26,067 protected by the Secret Service 2054 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:29,467 the most important first step was to 2055 01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:31,976 engage the age-old Mafia tactic of 2056 01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:34,667 finding a patsy to this end they turned 2057 01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:37,267 to George de Mohrenschildt a very 2058 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:39,976 sophisticated exiled Russian count and 2059 01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:42,600 CIA agent who was close friends in the 2060 01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:44,976 old business with George Bush and the 2061 01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:47,600 Texas oilman. they were aware that they 2062 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:50,533 needed someone like Giuseppe Zangara 2063 01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:52,933 who appeared to be a low-life 2064 01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:55,400 discontented misfit so they chose a 2065 01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:58,467 low-level CIA operative who had been 2066 01:26:59,000 --> 01:26:59,976 groomed precisely in order to appear to 2067 01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:02,733 be a low-life discontented misfit and enter 2068 01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:05,976 Lee Harvey Oswald who was carefully handled 2069 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:07,976 by de Mohrenschildt as he was placed 2070 01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:09,976 like a chess piece in the Texas School 2071 01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:12,667 Book Depository. with the patsy selected 2072 01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:15,976 the combined heads of the American Nazis 2073 01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:18,600 now sat down together to discuss their 2074 01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:19,001 problem 2075 01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:21,733 how do you kill a man riding an open car 2076 01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:24,976 on a public street in front of hordes of 2077 01:27:25,000 --> 01:27:27,600 people without being seen and then how 2078 01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:29,976 do you cover up forever afterwards the 2079 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:31,976 fact that this was a conspiracy and not 2080 01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:34,467 the work of a lone nut' the plotters 2081 01:27:35,000 --> 01:27:36,976 were keenly aware that it was the second 2082 01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:37,976 question 2083 01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:40,400 which posed the biggest problem the 2084 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:41,976 professional military men like Colonel 2085 01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:44,600 Ed Lansdale and Admiral George Burkley 2086 01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:46,976 Kennedy's personal physician were well 2087 01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:48,976 aware that there are any number of ways 2088 01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:51,400 to hide or disguise a sniper behind 2089 01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:54,333 trees inside other vehicles behind 2090 01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:57,533 windows and office buildings but this 2091 01:27:58,000 --> 01:27:59,976 was a plot which had to have an absolute 2092 01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:02,333 guarantee of success if a squad of 2093 01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:04,976 riflemen were all to fire at their 2094 01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:06,976 target at the same time this would 2095 01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:09,667 certainly guarantee the man's death but 2096 01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:12,976 the subsequent police investigation 2097 01:28:13,000 --> 01:28:14,976 would instantly realize more than one 2098 01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:16,976 shooter was involved a team of gunmen 2099 01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:18,976 all firing together might actually blow 2100 01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:20,600 Kennedy's head clean off 2101 01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:23,733 a single sniper couldn't do that so what 2102 01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:25,000 were they to do 2103 01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:29,733 it was during these deliberations that a 2104 01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,533 macabre thought first registered they 2105 01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:34,976 would have to control the body after the 2106 01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:37,667 shooting in order to make sure that all 2107 01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:40,533 physical evidence available to police 2108 01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:42,976 forensic scientists conformed to the 2109 01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:45,600 scenario of a single assassin and just 2110 01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:48,976 how in the hell were they going to do 2111 01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:51,667 that by way of preparing the ground Sam 2112 01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:54,976 Giancana had now ordered Richard Nixon's 2113 01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:57,533 political associate Jack Ruby to keep 2114 01:28:58,000 --> 01:28:59,976 Oswald snug under his wing and then to 2115 01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:01,976 set about hiring the best local riflemen 2116 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,667 preferred candidates being men like his 2117 01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:06,976 close friend Charles void Harrelson the 2118 01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:09,067 father of Hollywood actor Woody 2119 01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:10,976 Harrelson 2120 01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:13,733 who had proven his hitman credentials by 2121 01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:16,733 shooting dead dozens of men for money he 2122 01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:18,976 then turned to his mafia associates 2123 01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:21,467 Carlos Machado and Santo Trafficante 2124 01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:23,976 to supply the best gunman from their 2125 01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:25,976 cities while he himself instructed the 2126 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:27,976 well-known under-boss Tony Accardo to 2127 01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:29,976 give the Chicago end of the contract to 2128 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:32,333 Giancana's favorite and most trusted 2129 01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:35,733 hoodlums. Charles Nicoletti and Milwaukee 2130 01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:38,533 Phil Alderisio. this pair had to be 2131 01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:42,400 flown in 1500 miles to the ranch of 2132 01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:45,667 mafia hood Peter Licavoli and then driven 2133 01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:46,976 the remaining six hundred miles to 2134 01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:48,000 Dallas. 2135 01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:51,667 it had been agreed with Giancana's and 2136 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:54,467 Genovese's all business partners H. L. 2137 01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:56,976 Hunt and Clint Murchison that every 2138 01:29:57,000 --> 01:29:58,976 gunman would be paid fifty thousand 2139 01:29:59,000 --> 01:30:01,733 dollars for the hit and that the oil men 2140 01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:04,667 would stump up the cash so there was no 2141 01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:06,976 way of tracing it back to either the mob 2142 01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:08,000 or the CIA 2143 01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:12,667 for their part Jack Crichton and George 2144 01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:14,976 Bush were trying to lay the groundwork 2145 01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:16,976 at the street level with the mayor Earl 2146 01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:19,267 Campbell the brother of CIA chief 2147 01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:21,976 Charles Cabell from Kennedy had fired 2148 01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:24,600 both the Cabell brothers were crucially 2149 01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:26,976 important in the development of the fine 2150 01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:28,976 details of the plot because they agreed 2151 01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:30,976 to allow Crichton and his associates 2152 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:33,600 George Lumpkin the Dallas Police Chief 2153 01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:35,976 Lieutenant Colonel George Witmeyer and 2154 01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:38,600 Harry Weatherford to make use of their 2155 01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:41,600 488th military intelligence detachment. a 2156 01:30:43,000 --> 01:30:44,976 privately funded part-time Intelligence 2157 01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:47,600 Force which had amongst its ranks many 2158 01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:50,533 members of the John Birch Society, the 2159 01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:53,733 klu klux Klan and around half of all the 2160 01:30:55,000 --> 01:30:57,267 serving police officers in Dallas. 2161 01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:00,067 the plot is realized this was a 2162 01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:02,976 masterstroke because it meant they could 2163 01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:04,976 control the streets and the crime scene 2164 01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:07,467 but they also realized that when the 2165 01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:10,976 shooting occurred the response of at 2166 01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:12,976 least half the police on duty would 2167 01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:15,667 appear to be completely genuine and yet 2168 01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:16,976 for all this intricate planning 2169 01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:19,733 involving, as Sam Giancana later admitted, 2170 01:31:20,000 --> 01:31:22,533 dozens of men. the American Nazis were 2171 01:31:24,000 --> 01:31:26,600 aware they still had a problem. getting 2172 01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:27,976 the snipers into position and 2173 01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:30,733 coordinating their fire by radio was not 2174 01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:32,976 too difficult. it's something the 2175 01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:35,600 military do every day but this problem 2176 01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:37,976 of blowing the man's head clean off had 2177 01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,600 another side to it. supposing, as can 2178 01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:43,667 happen, all the snipers missed. how could 2179 01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:45,976 they possibly legislate for this 2180 01:31:46,000 --> 01:31:47,976 contingency? you see being a professional 2181 01:31:48,000 --> 01:31:48,976 sniper is a lot like being a 2182 01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:50,976 professional golfer. everyone knows that 2183 01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:53,733 generally speaking a golf pro on a par 3 2184 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:56,667 will hit the green but even the world's 2185 01:31:57,000 --> 01:31:57,976 best occasionally missed by a wide 2186 01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:00,533 margin and the same can happen to any 2187 01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:01,976 rifleman 2188 01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:04,733 we can be quite certain that the guiding 2189 01:32:05,000 --> 01:32:06,976 brains of the American Nazis Allen 2190 01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:09,667 Dulles and David Atlee Phillips in order 2191 01:32:10,000 --> 01:32:10,976 to cover this eventualities 2192 01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:12,976 must have at least considered having 2193 01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:15,733 worn assassin run up to the limousine to 2194 01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:17,976 attempt a point-blank range mafia style 2195 01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:20,733 shooting should the others miss but then 2196 01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:22,600 another problem appeared 2197 01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:24,976 supposing their assassin couldn't run 2198 01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:26,976 quick enough to jump on a speeding car 2199 01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:29,467 little by little the realization hit

when when Johnson came 2291 01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:36,976 out of the meeting what did he say to you? 2292 01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:39,600 he was so angry. he had a violent temper. 2293 01:36:42,000 -->
