13. In WWII’s Early Years, Henry Ford Made it Clear That He Preferred Hitler’s Germany to Churchill’s Britain
Given his anti-Semitic views and his track record in popularizing that great forgery, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, it is unsurprising that Henry Ford was happy to do business with Nazi Germany. When WWII began in 1939, Ford announced that he was neutral. However, his actions contradicted that claim.
For example, between the war’s commencement in 1939 and America’s joining the fight in late 1941, Ford had no problem supplying the Third Reich with war materials. However, he declined to supply Britain’s Royal Air Force (RAF) with aircraft engines.
