Excerpt:
“We are the world’s greatest market, and we are prepared to order a large amount of goods and pay for them,” Joseph Stalin told an American journalist in 1932. Stalin wasn’t kidding. From 1926 to 1929, the Soviet oil industry bought $20 million worth of equipment from America. And Koch was about to get in on the action.
In 1929, after hosting a delegation of Soviet planners in Wichita, Kansas, Winkler and Koch signed a $5 million contract to build 15 refineries in the Soviet Union. According to Oil of Russia, a Russian oil industry trade magazine, the deal made Winkler–Koch into Comrade Stalin’s Number One refinery builder. It provided equipment and oversaw construction:

Excerpt:
Koch Industries is the child of the violence of Buchenwald,  widely regarded as one of wartime Germany’s most notorious “death camps”.
Information connecting Ilse and Koch Industries is hard to find but is a string of fragments,  pieces of information that connects the American and German Kochs and this connection gives us a clear image of the sentiment behind the Tea Party and conservative American politics since the 1950s.  Where is the connection between the German Koch’s and Fred Koch?  Besides evidence the American Koch was related to Ilse’s family,  Erich Koch  (a high level Nazi official in charge of Prussia)  invites Fred Koch to sell his oil in Nazi Germany when he is banned from doing business in the US.  After the fall of Nazi Germany,  Erich Koch and Fred expand the oil empire to the Soviet Union.  Erich Koch had been in charge of Prussia for Hitler so his ties to the Soviet Union ran deep.  A few years later the Soviets took Fred Koch’s oil and prosecuted Erich for war crimes – Fred Koch returned

Excerpt:
Ilsa KochWords by Woody Guthrie, Music by The Klezmatics
I’m here in Buchenwald.
My number’s on my skin.
Old Ilsa Koch is here.
The prisoners walk the grounds.
The hounds have killed a girl.
The guards have shot a man.
Some more have starved to death.
Here comes the prisoner’s car.
They dump them in the pen.
They load them down the schute.
The trooper cracks their skulls.
He steals their teeth of gold.
He shoves them on the belt.
He swings that furnace door.
He slides their corpses in.
I see the chimney smoke.
I see their ashes hauled.
I see their bones in piles.
Lamp shades are made from skins.
I’m choking on the smoke.
The stink is killing me.
Old Ilsy Koch was jailed.
Old Ilsy Koch went free.
I’ve got to hush my song.
Here comes the super man.
I’ll see you later on.
I’ve got to duck and run.

Barry Jennings, WTC7 Witness ‘Found Dead’
September 17, 2008

Watch this video

Barry Jennings, a key 9/11 eyewitness who was an emergency coordinator for the New York Housing Authority, has passed away at age 53 from circumstances not yet disclosed. A spokesperson for the Housing Authority has now confirmed his death, after weeks of rumors circulating online, but refused to give any further details.

This office has not yet been able to contact anyone in the Jennings family and the official cause of death is not yet known, but online comments have reported the date of death as August 19, 2008.

It is very unusual that a prominent — and controversial– 9/11 witness would die only days before the release of NIST’s report on WTC7 and shortly after a firestorm erupted over his testimony that he heard explosions inside the building prior to collapse of either tower and that there were dead bodies in the building’s blown-out lobby.

Of course, this death plus Kenny Johannemann’s previously covered on this blog, are merely coincidental.

Like Hell.

Giuliani to Be Partner in Texas Law Firm

By PATRICK D. HEALY

Published: March 30, 2005


ALBANY, March 29 - Rudolph W. Giuliani's empire is expanding with a high-profile new venture: Mr. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, is becoming a partner in a politically connected Texas law firm and will open its Manhattan office in May.
The Houston law firm, Bracewell & Patterson, employs several prominent Republicans and former members of the Bush administration and has a roster of oil, gas and banking clients that once included Enron. It will be renamed Bracewell & Giuliani this week and open a 25,000-square-foot Midtown office in May with an initial complement of 20 lawyers, said the firm's managing partner, Patrick C. Oxford. The Midtown site has not been chosen, he said.
But even if a new shingle will soon bear his name, Mr. Giuliani, the former federal prosecutor, noted on Tuesday that he was not restarting his legal career at the expense of a future return to politics

http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/sec_gao.html
Excerpt:
Other Bush figures connected to or having a financial stake in Enron include Presidential advisor Karl Rove, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Zoellick (formerly on Enron’s advisory council) and multi-millionaire Secretary of the Army Thomas White who is a former Enron executive. Lawrence Lindsay, the President’s economic advisor, formerly served on an Enron advisory board. The newly elected Chairman of the Republican Party (RNC), former Montana Governor Marc Racicot, is Enron’s former chief lobbyist with the firm of Bracewell and Patterson. Racicot has indicated that he will not sever his relationships with the firm and may continue to lobby as he leads the Republican Party. As RNC he has unobstructed access to all key decisions and votes made by Republican members of Congress.
Racicot is not subject to any governmental regulation or oversight because he is not a federal employee.
Enron influence throughout the Bush Administration is nearly ubiquitous. Several news stories have reported that CEO Lay, who had supported Bush since his first run for Texas Governor has actually cast an imperial thumbs up or thumbs down on cabinet-level appointees and key regulatory officials including the head of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission which controls electrical rates for providers and oil, gas and electricity movements throughout U.S. markets.

‘Canoe Ventures’ Unveiled; Aegis’ Verklin To Head New Cable Ad Targeting Unit

As widely expected, outgoing Aegis Media Americas CEO David Verklin will head the new Comcast-backed cable ad targeting company Canoe Ventures—previously known as “Project Canoe,” WSJ reports. Introduced back in February, Project Canoe is a joint initiative by six major cable companies to sell targeted ads across their systems; backing so far totals $150 million.
SEE ALSO: @ NCTA: All In The Same Canoe But Can They Row Together?
Verklin provided the Journal with some details about the initiative, which is designed to help redirect the flow of ad dollars from the web back to cable TV:
—By operators, for operators: Canoe Ventures’ audience ad targeting tools will be offered to programmers like Disney’s (NYSE: DIS) ESPN or Viacom’s (NYSE: VIA) MTV, not directly to marketers. The technology will be shared among the consortium of cable companies: Comcast (NSDQ: CMCSA), Time Warner Cable, Cablevision (NYSE: CVC), Cox Communications, Charter Communications (NSDQ: CHTR) and Bright House Networks. Having a single ad platform means the companies won’t have to build up their sales forces. That will save money, but the unit could probably gain more revenue if it could bypass cable channels and go straight to advertisers with their pitches.
—Getting viewers to opt in: There will be a heavy concentration on developing interactive ads meant to encourage cable subscribers to request additional information, view different versions of ads, and to complete a purchase with their remote.
—More money to come: The cable companies are expected to provide additional funding of Canoe Ventures, but it’s not clear how much and when.
