Geronimo's Skull Behind The Bush's
|
Does 'The Dynasty of Death' have Geronimo's Skull? Do The Bush's eat off 'Hitlers' silverware? Do The Bush's belong to an'ole' boy secret society? Quaint or Dangerous?

One very small cautionary note:
The material here is not my own research, so I cannot vouch for the accuracy of every detail. But even if there may be an occasional error, a problem from which all historical research suffers, what is important is the big picture that emerges: it's a big picture that is confirmed by all honest research and experience, the picture of a cynical, super-rich, entrenched ruling elite that passes its power from generation to generation, a classic ruling class that uses every tool at its disposal to retain power.
The Skull and Bones Society(A History)
George Bush, in fact, passed his most important days and nights at Yale in the strange companionship of the senior-year Skull and Bones Society.
Out of those few who were chosen for Bones membership, George was the last one to be notified of his selection -- this honor is traditionally reserved for the highest of the high and mighty. His father, Prescott Bush, several other relatives and partners, and Roland and Averell Harriman, who sponsored the Bush family, were also members of this secret society.... The order was incorporated in 1856 under the name "Russell Trust Association."
By special act of the state legislature in 1943, its trustees are exempted from the normal requirement of filing corporate reports with the Connecticut secretary of state.
As of 1978, all business of the Russell Trust [which founded Skull and Bones] was handled by its lone trustee, Brown Brothers Harriman partner John B. Madden, Jr. Madden started with Brown Brothers Harriman in 1946, under senior partner Prescott Bush, George Bush's father. Each year, Skull and Bones members select ("tap") 15 third-year Yale students to replace them in the senior group the following year.
Graduating members are given a sizeable cash bonus to help them get started in life. Older graduate members, the so-called "Patriarchs," give special backing in business, politics, espionage and legal careers to graduate Bonesmen who exhibit talent or usefulness.
The home of Skull and Bones on the Yale campus is a stone building resembling a mausoleum, and known as "the Tomb." Initiations take place on Deer Island in the St. Lawrence River (an island owned by the Russell Trust Association), with regular reunions on Deer Island and at Yale.
Initiation rites reportedly include strenuous and traumatic activities of the new member, while immersed naked in mud, and in a coffin. More important is the "sexual autobiography": The initiate tells the order all the sex secrets of his young life. Weakened mental defenses against manipulation, and the blackmail potential of such information, have obvious permanent uses in enforcing loyalty among members. The loyalty is intense.
One of Bush's former teachers, whose own father was a Skull and Bones member, told our interviewer that his father used to stab his little Skull and Bones pin into his skin to keep it in place when he took a bath. Members continue throughout their lives to unburden themselves on their psycho-sexual thoughts to their Bones Brothers, even if they are no longer sitting in a coffin.
This has been the case with President George Bush, for whom these ties are reported to have a deep personal meaning. Beyond the psychological manipulation associated with freemasonic mummery, there are very solid political reasons for Bush's strong identification with this cult.... Skull and Bones -- the Russell Trust Association -- was first established among the class graduating from Yale in 1833.
Its founder was William Huntington Russell of Middletown, Connecticut. The Russell family was the master of incalculable wealth derived from the largest U.S. criminal organization of the nineteenth century: Russell and Company, the great opium syndicate. There was at that time a deep suspicion of, and national revulsion against, freemasonry and secret organizations in the United States, fostered in particular by the anti-masonic writings of former U.S. President John Quincy Adams. Adams stressed that those who take oaths to politically powerful international secret societies cannot be depended on for loyalty to a democratic republic.
But the Russells were protected as part of the multiply intermarried grouping of families then ruling Connecticut. The blood-proud members of the Russell, Pierpont, Edwards, Burr, Griswold, Day, Alsop, and Hubbard families were prominent in the pro-British party within the state. Many of their sons would be among the members chosen for the Skull and Bones Society over the years.
Opium and Empire
The background to Skull and Bones is a story of Opium and Empire, and a bitter struggle for political control over the new U.S. republic.
Samuel Russell, second cousin to Bones founder William H., established Russell and Company in 1823. Its business was to acquire opium from Turkey and smuggle it into China, where it was strictly prohibited, under the armed protection of the British Empire.
The prior, predominant American gang in this field had been the syndicate created by Thomas Handasyd Perkins of Newburyport, Massachusetts, an aggregation of the self-styled "bluebloods" or Brahmins of Boston's north shore. Forced out of the lucrative African slave trade by U.S. law and Caribbean slave revolts, leaders of the Cabot, Lowell, Higginson, Forbes, Cushing, and Sturgis families had married Perkins siblings and children.
The Perkins opium syndicate made the fortune and established the power of these families, under the direct protection of the British navy and British imperial finance. By the 1830s, the Russells had bought out the Perkins syndicate and made Connecticut the primary center of the U.S. opium racket. Massachusetts families (Coolidge, Sturgis, Forbes, and Delano) joined Connecticut (Alsop) and New York (Low) smuggler-millionaires under the Russell (and British) auspices.... Samuel and William Huntington Russell were quiet, wary builders of their faction's power.
An intimate colleague of opium gangster Samuel Russell wrote this about him: "While he lived no friend of his would venture to mention his name in print. While in China, he lived for about twenty-five years almost as a hermit, hardly known outside of his factory [the Canton warehouse compound] except by the chosen few who enjoyed his intimacy, and by his good friend, Hoqua [Chinese security director for the East India Company], but studying commerce in its broadest sense, as well as its minutest details. Returning home with well-earned wealth he lived hospitably in the midst of his family, and a small circle of intimates. Scorning words and pretensions from the bottom of his heart, he was the truest and staunchest of friends; hating notoriety, he could always be absolutely counted on for every good work which did not involve publicity."
The Russells' Skull and Bones Society was the most important of their domestic projects "which did not involve publicity." ... Yale was the northern college favored by southern slaveowning would-be aristocrats. Among Yale's southern students were John C. Calhoun, later the famous South Carolina defender of slavery against nationalism, and Judah P. Benjamin, later secretary of state for the slaveowners' Confederacy.... In 1832-33, Skull and Bones was launched under the Russell pirate flag.
Among the early initiates of the order were Henry Rootes Jackson (S&B 1839), a leader of the 1861 "Georgia" Secession Convention and post-Civil War president of the Georgia Historical Society; ... John Perkins, Jr. (S&B 1840), chairman of the 1861 "Louisiana" Secession Convention;... and William Taylor Sullivan Barry (S&B 1841), a national leader of the secessionist wing of the Democratic Party during the 1850s, and chairman of the 1861 "Mississippi" Secession Convention.
Alphonso Taft was a Bonesman alongside William H. Russell in the Class of 1833. As U.S. attorney general in 1876-77, Alphonso Taft helped organize the backroom settlement of the deadlocked 1876 presidential election. The bargain gave Rutherford B. Hayes the presidency (1877-81) and withdrew the U.S. troops from the South, where they had been enforcing blacks' rights. Alphonso's son, William Howard Taft (S&B 1878), was U.S. President from 1909 to 1913. President Taft's son, Robert Alphonso Taft (S&B 1910), was a leading U.S. senator after World War II; his family's Anglo-Saxon racial/ancestral preoccupation was the disease which crippled Robert Taft's leadership of American nationalist "conservatives."

WHERE ARE THEY HIDING GERONIMO'S SKULL? Notes From Indian Country SAN CARLOS APACHE RESERVATION, AZ
- Ned Anderson is the former Chairman of the San Carlos Apache of Arizona. He is on a one-man campaign to get the skull of his beloved Apache warrior, Geronimo, returned to its rightful burial place.
Anderson is convinced that the skull has been used in wierd fraternity rituals at Yale University since about 1918 after it was taken from Geronimo's grave at Fort Sill, Oklahoma , by Prescott Bush, the grandfather of Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush.
In 1983 several Apache leaders discussed the idea of having the bones of Geronimo returned to Arizona for reburial. The meeting between the Apache leaders at Fort Sill resulted in several papers picking up the story and putting Ned Anderson's name temporarily in the spotlitght.
A short time later a disgruntled member of Yale's Skull and Bones Society contacted Anderson by letter and suggested that the remains of Geronimo had been pilfered by Prescott Bush while he and five other officers were stationed at Fort Sill in 1918.
The stolen prizes were taken back to New Haven, Connecticut to a place known as the Tomb, the home of the Skull and Bones Society. The bones, a horse bit, and stirrups were placed in a glass display case where members and visitors could view them as they entered the building. The secret informant sent pictures of the bones on display along with a copy of a Skull and Bones ledger which held notations about the 1918 grave robbery.
The informant provided the information that the bones were used in the Thursday and Sunday night rituals of the Society and Geronimo's skull was always placed on a table in front of the participants during the ceremony.
Hardly believing his own ears, Anderson went to New Haven to confirm the allegations and satisfied that it was true he contacted the FBI to take controll of the issue. According to Anderson, his attorney informed him that if he would turn over every bit of evidence he possessed to the FBI, they would then take on the case. Anderson rejected this offer. Anderson then met with Jonathan Bush, the brother of George Bush, in Manhattan in 1986 with nothing of substance happening from the meeting. Instead Anderson believes the meeting was used as a stalling tactic in order to give the Society time to conceal the remains of Geronimo.
The secret letter that revealed the whereabouts of the bones mentioned that Prescott Bush and the other grave robbers used carbolic acid to rid the skull of the remaining flesh and hair. Attorney Endicott P. Davison representing the Skull and Bones Society denies that the club had Geronimo's skull. He claimed the ledger describing the theft of the bones was a hoax.
Ned Anderson considers the concealment and cover-up as, "a sacrilege and national disgrace." "Everywhere I have turned for help I have run into barriers. I contacted Arizona Congressman Morris "Mo" Udall before his death and Senetor John McCain and they were not able to help me. I just want to get my day in court, so to speak, and have a congressional hearing so I can present my case and my evidence," Anderson said. Anderson is angry that he has been accussed of orchestrating the whole scenario and his detractors have tried to convey the message that it is all "make believe."
Although he served as chairman of the San Carlos Apache from 1978 to 1986, he is reluctant to go to the tribal council for support because of the political turmoil now permeating his tribal government. "The situation at San Carlos is getting worse and it is much worse than it was several years ago when your newspaper covered the story," he said. Anderson said he feels that he is being held in abeyance. "I do have the so-called smoking gun and that can bring all of this into perspective and I am sure that the evidence I have will substantiate all that I have said about this."
The former tribal chairman was adamant in his charges and angered over the fact that some would accuse him of seeking to get personal publicity for his actions. At press time he was about to call Valerie Taliman, the producer of the national radio talk show, Native America Calling, based in Albuquerque, N.M., to get air time to make his views known to the other tribal leaders in America.
Where are the bones of the revered Apache warrior, Geronimo? I must agree with Anderson that if his bones and skull have been used for childish rituals by the Skull and Bones Society at Yale, it is indeed sacrilegious and barbaric. If George Herbert Walker Bush, the former president of the United States participated in midnight rituals using the skull and bones of this great warrior, he owes every Indian in America an apology.

Polishing 'The Silverware'

Excuse me GW, but could you pass Hitler's steak knife? courtesy 'Greenwich Village Gazette'.
GW Bush, along with his father George and grandfather Prescott, all belong to the Yale secret society Skull and Bones. Skull and Bones, founded in 1832 is an enormous secret network of ruling class power. Pillared under Wall Street, The CIA, Old Money, oil money and sometimes the Oval Office, Skull and Bones is a who's who of power in America.
Over the year there have been wild stories written about Skull and Bones. Some stories are true but most, like Richard Mulligan's Skull and Bones Web site, are total frauds. There are many credible stories, specifically revolving around Skull and Bones' bizarre collection of items they store in their grim, windowless tomb. Built in 1856 and later remodeled in 1864 after a faculty break-in, Skull and Bones has had many scandals revolving around what it actually possesses within the Tomb. For instance, it is a known fact that in 1933, Prescott Bush ripped the famous Native American Geronimo's skull out of its grave and brought it back to the Tomb. Why did Prescott Bush feel it was all right to steal the scared remains out of someone's grave? Was it his arrogance, racism, or just plain sadistic pleasure that motivated grampa Bush? The answer is still a mystery to this day.
In 1986 Apache leader Ned Anderson met with Endicott Davison, Skull and Bones lawyer and George Bush's brother Jonathan Bush. They handed Mr. Anderson a skull they claimed was Geronimo's . Mr. Anderson examined the skull and concluded that Mr. Davison and Mr. Bush were lying to him about the skull being Geronimo's. The meeting abruptly ended and to this the day the Bush Family nor Skull and Bones have returned the skull to its rightful owners. It was also revealed that Skull and Bones has a collection of children's and infant's skulls in the Tomb.
William Melton, the Skull and Bones cook, admitted to American Journal that he has seen at least "25 skulls". When GVG asked Mr. Melton if what he told the AJ reporter was true he shouted back "Yeah so what!" and slammed the phone down.
On September 29th 1876 a group of students broke into the Tomb through the roof and later wrote about what they discovered. After breaking through a skylight in the roof the students slid down into the tomb. What they found besides a collection a skulls lit by candle light, was a vast collection of memorabilia hanging from the walls and scattered through the Tomb. Inside the tomb, the students wrote, was a vast "memorabilia room". Soon after the break in Skull and Bones published a pamphlet that mocked the students investigation and circulated it around campus . They did however admit that in the Tomb "hangs a picture of Napoleon Bonaparte." But over the last few decades a story circled around Yale campus about another violent historical figure that was so horrifying most students didn't or could not believe it. It was said that one of the seven secret societies on Yale campus had Hitler's silverware in its archives and every so often, served dinners with it on special occasions.
In September 1977 Esquire magazine published Ron Ronsenbaum's "The Last Secrets of Skull and Bones." In the article Mr. Rosenbuam writes about the Hitler silverware story, but eludes that it is Scroll and Key, the second most powerful society at Yale, that is the owner of the ghoulish knick-knack.
The Boston Globe's editor of the editorial page and former Washington Post foreign correspondent to Indochina, Hugh F Greens, is a member of Scroll and Key. Mr. Greens told GVG over the weekend " I would be willing to say on The record that Scroll and Key has never owned anything of Hitler's." Lawrence Bensky a senior Pacifica correspondent at KPFA in Berkeley is a member of Berzelius, the third in rank and power. Bensky told GVG "it certainly wasn't Berzelius" that owned Hitler's silverware, "I would have noticed that. Berzelius was relatively benign, we didn't get in to all that mumbo jumbo like Skull and Bones or Scroll and Key." Mr. Bensky claims he was "felt out" by Skull and Bones and other societies but was turned down because he was Jewish. "I think Skull and Bones had one or two Jews in it, but I didn't feel comfortable even talking to people who are generally racially exclusive" Mr. Bensky said.
GVG made several attempts to contact, out of a pool of 30, as many Bonesman as possible. Fourteen of these Bonesmen were from GW Bush's "cell" from 1968. Out of 30 contacts GVG was able to get three Bonesmen to talk on the record. All three Bonesmen would not deny that Skull and Bones owned Hitler's silverware. Dr. William Cowdry and GW Bush became Bonesmen together in 1968 and have been friends ever since. GVG spoke to Dr. Cowdry this summer and when we asked directly, if Skull and Bones had possession of, or, if he or GW Bush have eaten off of Hitler's silverware, he replied "I think the position to take is, look, there are areas of life that we value highly, and (we) do not want it to end up in your magazine." Dr. Cowdry said to GVG that becoming a Bonesmen was "the greatest experience of my life." When GVG asked Dr. Cowdry if Skull and Bones practiced devil worship he barked "Absolutely not! That's outrageous!"
Professor Roy Leslie Austin, from St. Vincent Islands, was also "tapped" the same night as GW and Dr. Cowrdy. He said he did not "recall" seeing Hitler's silverware, but when GVG asked if Skull and Bones was racist or anti-Semitic Prof. Austin said "Of course, this is America, and one is sometimes a bit suspicious when you have to associate with whites." Prof. Austin told GVG, while we were interviewing him, that he drank a little too much rum and "normally this is not something we discuss with outsiders."
George Upson Waller, who grew up with George Bush Sr. in Greenwich Connecticut, and went to Andover and Yale together was also "tapped" in Skull and Bones. Mr. Waller is part of a special "cell" from 1945 which only had 10 members instead of the standard 15: "It was during the war years and they weren't terribly selective at that point. They were more desperate and only ended up taking 10 people my year. Most people were off at the war. In a normal year I wouldn't have made it." When GVG asked Mr. Waller about some details regarding Skull and Bones he replied "I suggest you should read Gary Trudeau, he's got a lot of it right. I'm a devotee of him." GVG asked Mr. Waller if knew anything about Hitler's silverware being housed in Skull and Bones tomb he said "I wouldn't deny it. God knows what's in there. There are some crazy things in this world. That is all I can say." Since Mr. Waller was a close friend of the Bush family GVG asked if he knew anything about Geronimo's skull, or, if Skull and Bones kept baby and children skulls. "Well, it is called Skull and Bones." Mr. Waller quickly changed the subject and said he knew GW, but he knew Jeb Bush better. "Someone told me Maureen Dowd wrote an article about GW Bush's substance abuse in his youth, I said I didn't realize he had enough substance to abuse."
Over the weekend GW Bush spoke to the national convention of the Christian Collection on its 10th anniversary. Mr. Bush did not denounce Pat Buchanan or mention "the wave of evil" to this ultra-right constituency and later drew praise from the Rev Pat Robertson. Mr. Robertson also warned GW to lay off the Republican commentator who said Hitler was an "individual of great courage" back in 1977.
EDITORIAL ( return to Support Service )
As our prime minister John Howard visits America we thought it fitting to look at the background of 'The Leader of the Free World', George.W.Bush, and uncover the style of man our prime minister holds in such awe.
Is George.W part of a secret society referred to as 'The Skull and Bone Society'? and what dark secrets do they hide and conceal?
It should be remembered George Snr was one time head of The C.I.A who have been linked to right wing extremist Governments and terrorist groups such as the Contra Rebels in Central America and these Governments and terrorist groups have perpetrated thousands upon thousands of crimes against the civilian populations and thousands of murders and tortures, it should also be remembered George Snr lead the charge against Saddam Hussain which resulted in the deaths of approx one million innocent Iraqi civilians. The Bush Bros George.W and Jeb, as Governors of their respective states(Texas & Florida) have executed between them more citizens then any other 2 Governors in The States, and if you believe the figures are correct that 17% of those executed are innocent then this would be acceptable Government sponsored murder.
George.W claimed the Presidency only with the support of Jeb and Florida against the popular vote count, and The Supreme Court on a split decision upheld what was a flawed election and the Justices of The Supreme Court that ratified the election result were political appointments of George Snr, so many questions that lead directly to the existance of the secret society of 'The Skull & Bones', it is a born to rule mentality that is supported by this ruling class elitist society.
So unlike our Human & Welfare Rights abusive Prime Minister's last visit to the States, this time his meeting with the anoited head of 'The Dynasty of Death' should be a meeting of like minds, so roll out the red carpet and polish 'the silverware' here comes Johnny Hunt or was that Howard? who knows and who really cares?
It is also noted the day our Prime Minister left the country Bill Clinton arrived, The Support Service believes it is a fair swap.
SUZOR
EDITORIAL
While to some the "good ol' boy" societies may seem harmless, the findings in the "tomb" of the "Skull and Bones" do give much incite as to the character of it's membership, and are unsettling to say the least. This "club" is on a par with the KKK, only with more power, and even more insidious repercussions.
These men are the leaders and representatives of our country!! For such a man as GW Bush to be a world leader is to me frightening personally i find the whole family to be corrupt but that is just my opinion.
Although it may be looked upon as a past youthful lark from days gone by, it is time to do 'the standup' thing, which is to lay this great warriors body to rest, and stop using the symbol of a once independent and courageous people for a ridiculous cult centerpiece. (ref-Geronimo's Skull)
