Harry Hutchinson believes that the current US state has taken up from where Hitler (who allegedly died in Argentina in 1962) is merely the outworking of the Nazi regime in Germany. 

Since the 1930’s the US has backed Nazi states. In Germany after Hitler’s rise to power and becoming Chancellor was aided with finance from US banks, to build public works, particularly railways to the East which became part of the war effort to be used against the Soviet Union. The rest of the bank loans were used for massive military expenditure. British PM Churchill called Hitler a ‘great man to oppose the Soviet Union.’

During the war US motor companies like Ford, GM and other energy suppliers kept Hitler's tanks and Luftwaffe production going. The US secretly supplied the Hitler government in loans and supplies as well as secretly supplying Britain, which was Classic CIA intervention of ‘backing both sides.’ It wasn’t until after the Battle of Stalingrad, which was the turning point of the war, that the US allowed the Japanese unhindered, to attack Pearl Harbour, bringing US behind Britain and other Allies.

Post War.

After the war German Nazism was defeated, US Nazism victorious. This opened the way for a new global dominance, East and West; America becoming an Imperialist power unseen like any other in history. Aided by Nazi scientists particularly in the building of the US atom and hydrogen bombs, Hitler and other Nazi leaders were allowed to escape to Argentina, under the guise of the CIA, where Hitler died in 1962.

After the war, the US took over where Hitler left off. The US have bombed 35 countries including Korea, China and Cuba in the 1950’s, Vietnam in the 60’s and early 70’s, Grenada and El Salvador in the 80’s. Iraq in the 90’s.

The Bush administration after the turn of the century began its war on terror. After the CIA orchestrated bombing of the twin towers in New York, the ‘Pearl Harbour' to the Middle Eastern wars, according to General Wesley Clarke, the US planned to invade 7 countries in 5 years. These were Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Iran.

The US military is deployed in 150 countries in the world, with 170,000 overseas troops. With a military budget of $721bn. This constitutes 40% of the worlds military expenditure.

Racist State.

Racial segregation in the US grew predominantly in the 1950’s. Segregation predominately grew out of the Jim Crow laws, enacted in the late 1900’s and early 20th century. These laws enforced racial segregation in public places and removed political, social and economic gains to Blacks. Blacks in the South were unable to vote, excluding Black representation in Congress and Local Government.

Civil Rights 

Blacks in the US organized against racial segregation in the 50’s. One such incident was the Montgomery bus boycott in 1955, when Rosa Parks, an African American, was arrested for refusing to give up her bus seat to a white person. Bus seats were reserved for whites at the front and seats at the back for blacks. Those in between were mixed, however blacks had to give up these seats if the white ones at the front became full.

A bus boycott followed. Black taxis lowered their prices to bus levels to drive people to their destinations. Pool fairs were set up and a campaign of non violent civil disobedience followed. The campaign intensified after a Emmet Till, a 14yr old boy was dragged of a bus for refusing to give up his seat and beaten to death.

The civil rights movement for political, social and economic rights led to the Racial discrimination act 1964, which prohibited discrimination of race, colour, religion, sex or national origin. However this law did not end racial discrimination.

Racial Discrimination 

Racial discrimination in all sectors continued after the Racial discrimination act 1964. Most notably in employment where blacks are disproportionately discriminated by higher unemployment, fewer job opportunities, poorer pay, benefits and more job instability.

Black woman face unique barriers; 5.1% are unemployed against 2.7% white woman. Black woman earn 61.9 cents for every $ a white woman earns. Black woman make up 84% of the breadwinners in the household, exacerbating family poverty. Overall blacks earn $727/week, compared to $943/week for whites.

Violent oppression in black areas, better known as legal racial terrorism, have destroyed businesses and infrastructure. This has resulted in occupational segregation where drug addiction is rife, denying people a prospect of better job opportunities.

Institutional Racism 

At preschool level, even though black children make up only 18% of all pupils, they make up 50% of suspensions. Compared to white children, who make up 43% of preschool children, 26% are suspended. Overall, black students are 3x more likely to be suspended than any other ethnic group. At post secondary level, according to the National Centre of Educational Statistics , college professors respond more to ‘white sounding' names, reflecting institutional racism amongst the teaching profession. Black students from poorer backgrounds have higher student fees and more likely to suffer stress and mental health. Black students have also a higher drop out rate and are 2x more likely to be unemployed. Black schools are chronically underfunded. Schools have 43,000 resource officers and 30,000 other sworn police officers. Three times as many young blacks end up in prison than whites, often after minor alterations.

Prison System 

Whites make up 64% of the population of America and 450/100,000 are incarcerated. Blacks, who make up only 13% of the population have a staggering 2,300/100,000, incarcerated. Private prisons have increased by 39%, since 2000, charging $150/day per prisoner. Several Corporations like GEO group and Care Civic and Management Corporation run the prisons in security, catering etc. These private prisons rely on long term prisoners paid out of the Federal budget. The prison system is based on market forces, profiteering from inmates.

Black Lives Matter 

The BLM movement orientated in 2013 after the Police officer acquittal of the shooting dead of an African American, George Zimmerman, in 2012. The movement became further energised after further black shootings in Fergusson in 2014. The BLM movement is inspired by the black movement in the 1980’s and supported the anti apartheid movement in S. Africa. The movement also supports LGBTQ rights. BLM stood a candidate in the 2015 Presidential election.

In 2016 BLM became a coalition of over 60 groups, calling for the end of mass surveillance, investment in education not incarceration and community control of policing, with the right to hire and fire police officers. The movement is prominent in organizing the mass protests after the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis adopting the slogans ‘l cant breath’ and ‘Hands up don’t shoot.’ Solidarity with the BLM comes from Australia , Canada, New Zealand, Britain and across the EU.

Changes are already taking place, like investment being diverted from Policing to Education in Minneapolis, the city George Floyd was killed and Police practice is now to be reviewed in many states; However reforms alone will not be enough to end racial discrimination in America. The BLM must development into an anti-capitalist movement and end the system of Capitalism which will continue to divide people along racial lines. This movement has the International potential world wide to unite people and raise the demand for a socialist alternative to Capitalism/Nazism.

  1. I am no defender of post-war US foreign policy but whdere is the modern US equivalent of the Shoah/Holocaust. The genocide of thde Native American population at least prefigured it.

    Whdere is the evidecne that the CIA "orchdestrated" 9/11? Did the real perpetrators have no agency at all?

    1. Barry - you should use Word on your comments before posting. All too often you rush and the words get garbled.

      I agree, this is the type of hyperbole that soils the point begging to be made.

      There is a lot of useful information in the piece but it is going to be judged against claims that Hitler escaped to Argentina and died there in the 60s.

  2. This is all a mix of weird conspiracy theory, innuendo, racism, capitalism, statistics, and, shady bank practices.

    Banks have no national loyalty: they will finance both sides of any war; for example, the same banks financed all sides in 2 world wars, the US/Russia Cold War and the Vietnam War.

    I have come to learn that all racial and ethnic groups have their fair share of racial biases and prejudices, it is not just a white thing; the problem becomes more pronounced when one ethnic or racial group have a monopoly over government and national administrative infrastrucres -hence the current situations in the US and UK -it is the disproportionate control that makes it systemic.

    How statistics are used is another problem -when viewing crime rates in the US the stats become complex; are the poorest and most economicaly deprived communities disprortionately represented in the stats and race is incidental? Certainly, Nationalists were considered to be more prone to crime in the six counties, especially if they came from one of the poorest hotspots throughtout the six counties. Descrimination created the hotspots and things can become self perpetuating there after. In the US over 90% of black victims are killed by other blacks and over 80% of white victims are killed by other whites -this could suggest that both sides have a disproportionate and misplaced view of the other. I certainly recall reading the stats of a survey conducted in the six counties -where almost 90% of unionists thought security a top priority -wheras, around the same percentages of Nationalists thought an end to discrimination to be their top priority - had things been handled better the same approach could have cancelled out the main concerns of both communities. Black and white (no pun intended) statistics can be used to exacerbate a problem rather than solve it -and an understanding of sub-sets of stats that make up the whole are also necessary -but that is not easy to do -because they are subject to lobbying and manipulations by all interest groups.

    Racism and discrimination are not a western phenomenom -look at any country -it is systemic when it is institutionalised by religious and/or ruling elites.

  3. Barry, the evidence of 9/11 comes mainly from witnesses who reported the explosions from the basements of the twin towers and also block 7, which was not hit by a plane, yet also collapsed. Immediately Bush announced the war on terror, the motive behind the attack.
    AM, it was not my intention to focus on Hitler. Thousands of Nazi's escaped to Argentina after the war. Most prominent were Eichmann and Mengele. The most prominent evidence of Hitler's escape were from the employees who served Hitler in his estate and also eyewitnesses from the hospital were Hitler was treated for illness. Russia claimed Hitler did not die in the Berlin bunker. His escape is still not conclusive, but evidence now ways heavily on the side he did. Argentina was the safe haven.
    Christy, 'weird conspiracies' are a side track for not analysing the facts as we know them. My article attempts to factually demonstrate, not their is a thin line between Capitalism and Nazism but in predominantly imperialist countries both are incorporated. Compare the US to Nazi Germany. Their may be no systemic extermination gas chambers in the US,but the US atrocities even exceed those of Nazi Germany in pursuit of global dominance. Atomic and hydrogen bombs on Japanese civilians. Churchill urged the US to use the same on Russia. It is unknown of the millions killed in the expansion of the American empire. The one Hitler set out to achieve.

    2. Harry - it might not have been your intention to focus on Hitler but in doing so you enhanced the chances of your main point being missed. Having for decades read about WW2 and in particular Operation Barbarossa. I have seen nothing other than conspiracy theories supporting the view that Hitler escaped to Argentina. The historian consensus, the forensic dental evidence - all of it points to Hitler having died in 1945 in Berlin. Ladislas Farago made a career out of this type of thing: creating this whole fiction around the life of Martin Bormann in Argentina. By 98 DNA confirmed that the remains discovered in 72 in Berlin were Bormann's.
      Stalin started the rumour about Hitler, and used the moral authority of Shukov to have to disseminate. The French medical examination in 2017 based on accessing the jawbone (which the Russians had) - "The remains of Adolf Hitler: A biomedical analysis and definitive identification" was proof positive.
      I find these things to be a bit like creationism Vs evolution. Why bother with what the creationists think or say on matters?

    But you do not provide facts. You have repeated a number of conspiracy theories, from Hitler's speculated escape to the CIA being behind 9/11. We use facts to confirm the truth about something, and as persuasive as some theories are about 9/11, they have consistently fallen short of proving anything.

    You conflate decades of systemic racism and underfunding of black communities in the US as some sort of derivative of Nazisim post Hitler --the oppression, deprivation and racism against black people in America long predate Hitler and Nazism.

    Also the US would have made the atomic bomb eventually -it is not something they only pursued because they were influenced or driven by the defection of Nazi scientists. Likewise their involvement in global conflicts was a natural progression -your innuendoes about what influence escaped Nazi war criminals had on american foreign policy is purely conjecture.

    1. Christy not only that but his chronology is wrong. The US made the first atomic weapons after the UK figured out that enriched uranium was needed not the vast quantites of normal stuff. Operation Paperclip was the program whereby the US moved German scientists AFTER 1945 to help in their fedgling ROCKET program. Most of the article is guff.

  6. Christy,aspect issues in my article is backed up with ample evidence. Hitlers escape-Independent newspaper 2018, declassified CIA memo, 1955, Hitler photographed living in Colombia. Addressed as the Furer. Declassified FBI files-investigating Hitler living in S America. Even if conspiracy theories leave the question open, why would the US even investigate Hitlers possible where abouts if they didnt think he was alive. To me the evidence says heavily on the side he escaped to Argentina, based on eyewitnesses accounts. I'll try to find this evidence as l came across it a few years ago.
    Likewise with 9/11, facts and mounting evidence have in my opinion exposed an inside jod. Ask yourself, what brought block 7 down? It was not hit by a plane. Again eyewitnesses reported explosions. Numerous books like The Hidden history by Paul Zaremba expose much of the truth as Michael Moores 9/11.
    According to Smith Sonian magazine, 88 Nazi scientists were brought to the US. The most notable Wernher Von Braun, who like others worked on the Manhattan programme. Many of these scientists, according to the report, where responsible for the Holocaust. So the US exonerated them of war crimes.Used there advanced knowledge to crush any Asian uprising by dropping the bombs on civilians. Would Hitler have used such lethal force to advance German Imperialism very possibly. US did it instead.
    Internal racism in the US is historical and profoundly entrenched. An apartheid that is not only supported by the far right, like the kkk, but also successive US governments and the Corporate establishment. Trump has exposed this, with his open support for and vice versa, far right 'Nazi' groups.
    Iv argued that the US has been a Nazi state,since the 1930s posing as a democratic Capitalist state. The evidence of their support for Nazism in the 30s and 40s; world dominance post war is not a natural progression. Expanding NATO to the Russian border.Russia is a major power; where is their natural progression. Where is China's. US taking over where Hitler left off.

  8. "The US secretly supplied the Hitler government in loans and supplies as well as secretly supplying Britain, which was Classic CIA intervention of ‘backing both sides.’ "

    The CIA didn't exist then, it was the Office of Strategic Affairs, and even that was'nt formed until 1942 so there's no way they could have 'funded both sides' as you assert before the War.

    "It wasn’t until after the Battle of Stalingrad, which was the turning point of the war, that the US allowed the Japanese unhindered, to attack Pearl Harbour, bringing US behind Britain and other Allies."

    Eh? The US would have much preferred to remain isolationist and get everyone else into debt than fight a war back then. In fact, they did all they could to discourage Jap aggression before Pearl Harbour including turning a blind eye to the attack on the USS Panay years earlier.

    I read on but I started to get a headache. Not much of your claims hold water, but I absolutely love a good conspiracy theory so keep on doing you.
