One of the many advantages of SubStack, over other platforms, is the ability to update an article and video. I found this longish clip of an interview with Professor Antony C. Sutton several years ago and thought it was quite insightful for people who had not read his books. Once I posted the clip, my very knowledgeable audience quickly pointed out that the original interview was by a radio talk-show host named Dr. Stan Monteith, and the clip was truncated. I didn’t know this, when I posted it. So I have updated the interview in its entirety, including all comments from the from Monteith.
Introduction
The video provides a detailed exposition by Dr. Antony Sutton on the factual historical record of American financial and industrial collaboration with two of the 20th century's most powerful and oppressive regimes: Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. According to Sutton, Wall Street bankers and U.S. corporations played a crucial role in financing and equipping both regimes with the tools required to sustain authoritarian power, wage global war, and develop military technologies. 00:00:39
Summary
🛠️ Ford, General Electric, and Industrial Aid to the USSR
From 1923 to 1933, American industry was central to the Soviet Union’s transformation into a formidable industrial and military power. Ford Motor Company was contracted to build the Gorky Plant, which manufactured GAZ trucks. These trucks later appeared on the Ho Chi Minh trail, transporting arms and personnel during the Vietnam War, directly leading to American casualties. 00:02:24
Albert Kahn, the most prominent industrial architect of the time, designed the entire First Five-Year Plan for the Soviets. His firm rebuilt every major Soviet industry, including heavy manufacturing and energy, using American engineering blueprints and logistical systems. General Electric and DuPont were also key players in delivering technical assistance and equipment. 00:21:02
🧨 U.S. Financial Support for the Bolsheviks
Colonel William Boyce Thompson, a leading figure at Chase Bank, used $1 million of his personal funds in 1917 to support the Bolshevik revolution in Petrograd. This transfer occurred while Lenin controlled only Moscow and Petrograd, ensuring the revolution's survival. 00:17:22
Sutton asserts that this funding was not motivated by ideology but by strategic calculations. Wall Street sought to establish regimes dependent on Western technology and capital. A socialist economy, being centrally planned, lacked internal innovation and was forced to continuously rely on Western supply chains—making it a "captive market." 00:18:55
🪖 The Corporate Empowerment of Nazi Germany
American corporate ties with Nazi Germany preceded and continued through World War II. Henry Ford was an early financial backer of Adolf Hitler. Ford received a medal from the Nazi regime in 1938. His company also built a major plant in Cologne, Germany, that produced military trucks. This plant was notably spared from Allied bombing, unlike German-owned Siemens. 00:11:00
Standard Oil, ITT, and General Electric were deeply embedded in the Nazi war machine. Standard Oil transferred critical technology including the hydrogenation process and tetraethyl, a fuel additive essential for the Luftwaffe. ITT ran the Focke-Wulf aircraft factory, which continued operations through the war. GE, through its German affiliate AEG, moved funds to the Nazis even during active conflict. 00:06:21
🧾 The Kepler Fund and Nazi Slush Accounts
Heinrich Himmler controlled the Kepler Fund, also known as Konto S. This fund was a Nazi slush account sustained by contributions from American corporations, including ITT, Standard Oil, and General Electric. Payments continued into 1943–1944, at the height of WWII. These financial ties were documented but never pursued in the Nuremberg trials, as no American financier was indicted or brought to justice. 00:12:20
💣 Selective Bombing and Corporate Protection
While cities like Cologne were decimated by Allied bombers, factories with ties to American interests — such as Ford and GE facilities — were left intact. In contrast, German firms like Siemens were targeted and destroyed. The deliberate sparing of American-linked assets during bombing campaigns reveals preferential treatment based on corporate affiliations. 00:10:05
🧪 Lend-Lease and Nuclear Technology Transfer
The Lend-Lease program, designed to aid allies during WWII, was used to transfer strategic materials to the Soviet Union, including those needed for nuclear weapons development. Verified records show that heavy water, aluminum tubes, and graphite were shipped. Major Jordan, a U.S. officer, documented these transfers and was later confirmed by official shipping logs. 00:26:27
🚀 Precision Machinery for Soviet MIRVs
The Soviet Union's acquisition of MIRV technology — allowing nuclear missiles to carry multiple warheads to separate targets — was facilitated by machinery produced by Bryant Chuck and Grinder. These machines were the only ones capable of achieving the precision required for MIRV deployment and were exported to the USSR over government objections. 00:28:03
🛻 Kama River Plant and Soviet-Afghan War
The Kama River Plant, spanning 36 square miles, was constructed using American and Italian equipment under a Fiat cover. It produced military-grade trucks that were later identified in Soviet operations in Afghanistan during the 1980s. U.S. intelligence documented the plant’s capacity for military vehicle production, yet construction was not halted. 00:33:08
🕴️ The Trilateral Commission and Elite Governance
Founded by David Rockefeller in 1973, the Trilateral Commission was funded by the Ford Foundation, Kettering Foundation, and Danforth Foundation. It rapidly penetrated U.S. governance. By the Carter administration, 18 out of 77 U.S. members held Cabinet and top agency positions including State, Treasury, Defense, and National Security. 00:37:43
Media outlets including Time, CBS, and the Chicago Sun-Times were directed by commission members, ensuring control over public discourse. Over 50% of U.S. Trilateral members were also members of the Council on Foreign Relations, further consolidating elite influence. 00:39:47
🧮 Conclusion: Strategic Corporate Socialism
The video presents an unambiguous record of corporate socialism—where economic elites strategically aid authoritarian regimes to ensure long-term dependence on Western capital, technology, and influence. Both Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia were enabled through deliberate, documented financial and industrial collaboration from Wall Street.
The purpose, as concluded by Dr. Sutton, was to maintain dominance over industrial development by turning ideological adversaries into controlled clients of American capital. Technological control superseded political allegiance. The ultimate outcome was a world shaped by unelected corporate and financial networks exercising unchecked power over state apparatuses and warfare outcomes.
