Prescott Bush was a member, in 1918, of the student association Skull & Bones. Dared by his colleagues, he invaded an apache cemetery and robbed the scalp of the legendary Geronimo. At the beginning of World War II, Prescott Bush, was sanctioned by the government of the United States for negotiating fuel with the Nazi Luftwaffe. The court cited him for violations of the ' Trading with the Enemy Act.' Astutely, after the war, Prescott became close to the men in power and profited from their immunity and impunity. He became friends with the brothers Allen and John Foster Dulles. The latter was head of the CIA at the time of the murder of John F. Kennedy in 1963. He convinced old Bush to make a magnanimous gesture and to give the scalp of Geronimo back to the Apaches . Bush did it, but soon after, the natives discovered that the restituted relic was false. The friendship with Dulles guaranteed the older son of Prescott, George H. Bush, executive of the oil industry, a job as an agent of the CIA. George was so prominent at the CIA that he coordinated the Invasion of the Bay of Pigs in Cuba, to overthrow the regime implanted by guerilla group from Sierra Maestra. Faithful to his Texan roots, George christened the boats that would take the mercenaries to Cuba: Zapata - the name of his oil company, Barbara, Bush's wife; and Houston. The invasion failed, 1,500 mercenaries were stopped and, later, released in exchange for 10 million dollars in foods and medicines for the children. Despite the defeat, George H. Bush became director of the CIA in 1976. Saddened with the poor performance of his James Bond-like first-born, Prescott Bush consoled himself with the success that he had in the oil business. He applauded the great vision of his son when George, in the mid-sixties, made friends with an Arab contractor who traveled frequently to Texas, mingling with local society, Muhammad Bin Laden. In 1968 while flying over Bush's oil wells, Bin Laden died in a plane crash in Texas. The family connection, nevertheless, was already firmly established. George Bush did not mourn the death of the friend. He was more concerned with the scholastic difficulties about his son George W. Bush, who only obtained an average of 'C.' As the war in Vietnam got worse, George H, in order to avoid that his son be drafted in the regular army, tried to enlist him in the Air Force of the National Guard. George W.'s drinking habit nevertheless, prevented the grandson of Prescott from becoming a pilot. Papa George encouraged him to create his own oil company in the mid-70's. 'Arbusto Energy' was founded and named after the shrub ('arbusto' means 'bush' in Spanish) Thanks to the international contacts that the father maintained from his time in the CIA, George W. Bush sought the investments of Khaled Bin Mafouz and Salem Bin Laden, the eldest of the 52 children of the late Muhammad Bin Laden. Mafouz, a Saudi banker, was married to one of the sisters of Salem Bin Laden. That family bond allowed Mafouz to become President of the 'Blessed Relief' Arab organization in which one of the brothers of Salem, Osama Bin Laden, worked. The 'Arbusto Energy' company restructured and became 'Bush Exploration' and later, 'Spectrum 7.' This restructuring prevented George W. Bush from going bankrupt. Salem Bin Laden, faithful to the old family ties, came to the aid of a friend and bought $600,000.00 in stocks of the 'Herken Energy' company, which later took over Spectrum 7. He also contracted to import petroleum valued at $120 million per year. Things improved for the grandson of old Prescott, who soon pocketed $1 million and a contract with the Emirate of Bahrain, which left Esso (petroleum company) dying of envy. In December of 1979, George H. Bush traveled to Paris to a meeting between U.S. Republicans and Khomeini moderates, in which they discussed freeing the 64 kidnapped American hostages taken in November, from the US Embassy in Teheran. They were carefully trying to avoid any mileage that Jimmy Carter could make from this situation which could damage Ronald Reagan's presidential aspirations. Papa George traveled to the Paris Conference on Salem Bin Laden's yacht. Salem opened the doors for George H. Bush's contacts in the Islamic world. In 1988, Salem, like his father, was killed in an airplane disaster. In that same year, the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. Papa George, who directed CIA operations, approached Osama, one of the brothers of Salem, who agreed to infiltrate Afghanistan being monitored by the CIA, to fortify the Afghan resistance against the communist invaders. The above information is the research of the Italian analyst Francesco Piccioni. More details can be found in Steve Hatfield's book: A Fortunate Son: George W. Bush and the making of an American President, to the degree possible within the constrainsts of censorship in the United States and the omission in the press of the complete story of the CIA's involvement in the creation of General Noriega, of Panama; Saddam Hussein, of Iraq; and Osama Bin Laden of Saudi Arabia/Afghanistan. Now, the grandson of Prescott Bush demonstrates his loyalty to the lineage of his grandfather: he invades Afghanistan to obtain, although at the price of sacrificing the civilian population, the scalp of Osama Bin Laden.
