Joe Biden’s Mentor, Father of Original Cold War, Was Traitor to U.S.: Family Company Sold Fuel Additive to Nazi Air Force
I find this kind of deep-state history fascinating.
We are taught that the U.S. was on the righteous side in World War Two and that the war was to defeat “Nazism” and “Fascism.” Very simplistic narratives where the truth is far deeper than the “U.S. History for Indoctrinated Dummies” that we “learn” in our state schools.
This is a long article from Covert Action Magazine, but, very interesting.
Joe Biden’s Mentor, Father of Original Cold War, Was Traitor to U.S.: Family Company Sold Fuel Additive to Nazi Air Force

Harriman helped lay the groundwork for Biden in his support for imperialistic foreign policies worldwide
Joe Biden has established a reputation over his long political career as a neo-conservative war hawk. He will be remembered as the president who supported Israeli genocide in Gaza and triggered a new Cold War with Russia while funneling billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to a corrupt Ukrainian regime whose army contains neo-Nazi militias.
Very few people are aware that, when Biden first entered the U.S. Senate in the 1970s, he was mentored by W. Averell Harriman, the son of a Gilded Age robber baron, who was a founder of Brown Brothers Harriman, the storied Wall Street investment firm, and is known as the father of the original Cold War.
Biden discussed Harriman’s influence on his career in his 2007 memoir, Promises to Keep, stating that he was “adopted by Harriman” when he entered the Senate in 1973 as a “thirty-year-old kid.”[1]
Biden recalled that, when the two traveled together to Yugoslavia for a funeral in the late 1970s, Harriman predicted to him that the Soviet Union would collapse and told him that he should “get to know Yugoslavia” because it was an “area we could bring into the 21st century as an ally.”[2]
Biden heeded those words two decades later when he supported secessionist movements that fueled the break-up of Yugoslavia and U.S.-NATO bombing operations, which culminated with the building of a giant U.S. military base at Camp Bondsteel.

The bankers have always been at the heart of the US Deepstate. After the New Deal had constrained them, they rose from the grave IMMEDIATELY on FDR's death. Harriman was there at the start.
From one of Henry Wallace's speeches:
And when FDR died, they saw their opportunity and they moved in. They moved in on Harry Truman and he welcomed them. The representatives of the Men Of Greed were his first visitors after FDR's death. I recall on the train, coming back from Hyde Park where the president had just been buried. Truman's first callers were Edwin Pauley and George Allen, the errand boys of the big corporations. A month later Herbert Hoover was called in. The Engineer of the Great Depression helped engineer the about-face in FDR's policies. Cabinet shifts were made. The men who had stood firm for FDR's policies were the first to go. The Harrimans, the Snyders, the Forrestals of Wall Street, took over and with them came the policies of Wall Street. With them came the policy of gov't on behalf of the few, gov't against the people.
WOW! What a country we live in.... thanks for this post, Cindy. some of the things I already knew, but it is vital that we have the truth repeated and repeated.
