Henry Ford had no problem whatsoever doing business with Nazi Germany. When the war began in 1939, Ford professed himself neutral, but his and his company’s actions belie that claim. Before America joined the war, Ford had no problem supplying Germany with war materials, but declined to supply the British RAF with aircraft engines.
Large American banks – and George W. Bush’s grandfather – financed the Nazis.
American manufacturing companies were big supporters of the Nazis.
IBM put the blitz in blitzkrieg. The whole war effort was organized on Hollerith machines from 1933 to 1945. This is when information technology comes to warfare. At the same time, IBM was supporting the entire German war machine directly from New York until the fall of 1941 ….
There is a preponderance of evidence on the net.

Excellent post. Brown Brothers Harriman (the Bushies and the Harrimans) was notorious.
There is a story that when Israel’s admission to the UN was coming up for a vote, Ben Gurion and his intelligence service people paid a visit to Nelson Rockefeller and showed him documentation that illustrated the cooperation that went on between the Rockefeller family and the Nazis.
The Israelis threatened to publish this information unless Rockefeller used his influence with Latin American countries (influence which was considerable at that time on account of Rockefeller investments there) to have them vote in favor of Israel’s admission.
Rockefeller used his influence and the Latin American countries voted “yes,” providing the necessary majority for Israel’s admission.
And, US oil companies had a cozy relationship with the Nazis. However, all this notwithstanding, we were also supplying all of Hitler's enemies with weapons and supplies long before we even entered the war.
