they were part of ig farben for a while before the banksters had to split them out again cos of the bad publicity attached to that trade name

[/url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IG_Farben]part of the story[url]

a rather interesting bit of the story is the extremely lenient war crimes sentences for ig farben senior management.iirc 4 yrs was the longest and that was a cushy jail and they did know exactly what some of their products were for and exactly the conditions of the slave labour that they relied upon
ps the bankers and the american subsidiaries had to pretend a clean break after pearl harbour but old friends etc etc [/url]

here he is he had a small but important part in the temporary rift between the uber rich of the globalised business types and the reich but the bis smoothed things over in 1945/6 so it was back to business as usual. ps there is more data about this chap but i cant find it at the mo.
