On this week's Global Research News Hour, on the occasion of the recent passing and funeral of the 41st president of the United States, George Herbert Walker Bush, we present a portrait of Bush's background and criminal activities, largely missing from current discourse over the late president's legacy. Guests include Florida based freelance journalist John Buchanan, who, in 2003, revealed for the first time archival documents proving the financial connections between Bush's father Prescott and a key supporter of the Nazi war machine during WWII.
Our second guest, Professor Michel Chossudovsky, discusses President Bush's own unwholesome connections with criminal figures, including the Bin Laden family (via the Carlyle Group) and the Mexican Drug cartels, via his family's relationship with the Mexican president known to be linked with the drug trade.
Finally, Stephen Lendman, a writer, journalist, and past broadcaster presents his overall take on President Bush's criminal record in the context of what he calls 'dirty politics' in America and abroad.
