Disney – Ford – Nazis?
March 3rd 2008 12:52
Disney has long been at the centre of a vast number of conspiracies. A number of these are centred around Disney’s namesake – Walt Disney, famous for his capitalist passion and ability to be ‘difficult’.
Henry Ford was another Capitalist, father of the modern production line. He regarded himself a pacifist, and opposed the first world war, considering it a waste of time.
Both of these men however have been associated with some kind of Nazi connections.
Ford was the owner of the newspaper The Dearborn Independent, in which a number of articles that were right wing and anti-semantic, including the Protocols of Zion. There were published and distributed widely, including in Germany. Hitler himself was a fan of both the publication and of Ford. However when a case was brought against Ford, he spoke out against the content and claimed he was unaware of what the publications contained, though this is contested by some. He did however express a belief in the Protocols of Zion, saying they matched up with what seemed to be going on in the world.
Prior to the outbreak of World War two, Ford was awarded the Grand Cross of the German Eagle, by the German Consul of Cleveland – the highest medal that could be given to a foreigner.
However, when he was shown the actions of the Nazi’s against the Jews later in his life, he was shocked, and, reportedly, suffered a heart attack.
Disney, who is the more famously known as an anti-Semite, is the lesser qualified to hold the title. What is confirmed is that he was a great opponent of Labour Unions, a main source of his criticism, and was a strong opponent of Communism. However where we move into allegations of anti-Semitism all we have to go on are a few reports of anti-Semitic behaviour from a few who knew him, including Ford, and an oft sited example of a Jewish looking Wolf in one of the Cartoons.
The following video is not the one oft sited, but is another cartoon brought up as evidence to suggest Disney was anti-Semantic.
There has never been any credible suggestion of Disney associating with Nazis.
