Fatal Friendship: First Phase: From World War I to II (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786054923892)

Rising US capitalism presented itself to the world with freedom, democracy, and prosperity. However, the practices of America First-genocide, labor exploitation, and warlike plunder of foreign property-were merely modernized.

The First World War became the first major global business venture, making allies dependent. After the war, US corporations invested in Western Europe. Mussolini was showered with loans. US corporations supplied Franco and equipped the German Wehrmacht for a war against Russia.

The US-led new central bank in Switzerland laundered Nazi looted gold. The persecution of the Jews was suppressed. With the dropping of two atomic bombs on civilian populations, new wars against new enemies began-in systematic violation of international law.
