This is news? You have to realize, we Americans didn't particularly care about the Nazi's committing genocide against the Jews. We were making good money from the Germans, and we completely turned a blind eye, as we do today when we support atrocities or when they are committed by our allies/trading parters. The media didn't make a big deal out of it until after the war.
The bankers and other wealthy individuals who own these massive corporations, the ruling class as they say, do not care about America or the American people. They care about power and money. It's the reason no one blinks and eye when Dick Cheney, as CEO of Halliburton, does business with enemies like Iran and Iraq. These people often do business with both sides during a war. They also often have a hand in setting up the war in order to make more money and gain more power.
The Bush family also made a fortune from the Nazi's. Even after Imperial Japan attacked us and we were forced into war with the Germans. And we elected two of them as our Presidents. Their fortune came from the Nazis.
Anyone who thinks these corporations give a shit about this country or any other country is kidding themselves. Nationalism is another tool to control the masses and make them fight, just like religion. These people care about getting as much power and money into the hands of as few people as possible, and gaining as much control over the lives of the rest of us.
So I'm saying, don't be surprised when you read things like this, and don't be suprised when they happen in the future.
