Re: Ron Paul Newsletters ...... Was Henry Ford Incompetent?

[Joe3113]

Ford in the early 1920s sponsored a weekly newspaper that published (among many non-controversial articles) strongly anti-Semitic views... While Ford's articles were denounced by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the articles explicitly condemned pogroms and violence against Jews (Volume 4, Chapter 80), but blamed the Jews for provoking incidents of mass violence.[68] None of this work was written by Ford, but he allowed his name to be used as author. According to trial testimony, he wrote almost nothing. Friends and business associates have said they warned Ford about the contents of the Independent and that he probably never read the articles. (He claimed he only read the headlines.)[69] However, court testimony in a libel suit, brought by one of the targets of the newspaper, alleged that Ford did know about the contents of the Independent in advance of publication.

Well, considering he founded the Ford Foundation, the pretty much sums up the truth, being on par with the Rockefeller Foundation, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, et al. E-U-G-E-N-I-C-S, that's what you mean to me!
