The Bormann Organization

Orig­i­nally recorded in June of 1997, this pro­gram sets forth the basic facts con­cern­ing the gen­e­sis and func­tion­ing of the remark­able and deadly Bor­mann orga­ni­za­tion, named for Reich­sleiter Mar­tin Bor­mann.

1. The eco­nomic and polit­i­cal com­po­nent of a Third Reich gone under­ground, the Bor­mann orga­ni­za­tion con­trols cor­po­rate Ger­many and much of the rest of the world. Cre­ated and run by Mar­tin Bor­mann, the orga­ni­za­tional genius who was the “the power behind the throne” in Nazi Ger­many, the Bor­mann group is a pri­mary ele­ment of the analy­sis pre­sented in the For the Record programs.

2. The broad­cast begins with dis­cus­sion of the resump­tion of long-dormant inves­ti­ga­tions of the Nazi money trail cre­ated as the Third Reich siphoned off its wealth, in an effort to polit­i­cally sur­vive the inevitabil­ity of mil­i­tary defeat.

3. As noted in this arti­cle, much of the Nazi money was rein­vested in Ger­man corporations.

4. Although it is not men­tioned directly in this arti­cle, the story of the Nazi money trail leads, inevitably to the Bor­mann orga­ni­za­tion. The pur­pose of the Bor­mann flight cap­i­tal pro­gram was set forth by Paul Man­ning, the heroic author who wrote the story of the Bor­mann organization.

“Mar­tin Bor­mann, forty-one at the fall of Berlin, and strong as a bull, was at all times at Hitler’s side, impas­sive and cool. His be-all and end-all was to guide Hitler, and now to make the deci­sions that would lead to the even­tual rebirth of his coun­try. Hitler; his intu­itions at peak level despite his crum­bling phys­i­cal and men­tal health in the last year of the Third Reich, real­ized this and approved of it. ‘Bury your trea­sure,’ he advised Bor­mann, ‘for you will need it to begin a Fourth Reich.’ [Empha­sis added.] That is pre­cisely what Bor­mann was about when he set in motion the ‘flight cap­i­tal’ scheme August 10, 1944, in Stras­bourg. The trea­sure, the golden ring, he envi­sioned for the new Ger­many was the sophis­ti­cated dis­tri­b­u­tion of national and cor­po­rate assets to safe havens through­out the neu­tral nations of the rest of the world.”  (more...)
