That is the gist of many headlines we are seeing recently, in news reports on the television as well as in print. No kidding! I think it was SHARKHUNTERS that laid this foundation with the story by DON ANGEL and other information. These reports go on to tell how Juan and Evita Peron made all this money at the end of the war, and that the CIA, the FBI and God knows how many other intelligence agencies are ‘looking into’ these allegations. According to one report out of London, the Perons had a secret committee of ‘advisors’ who would make lists of wanted Nazis, then recruit them to come to Argentina - for a price, of course. These reports also mention a report by an American General which states that Peron had already established ‘a regular air bridge between Germany and Spain’ to facilitate the escape of high ranking Nazis and the transfer of funds. We at SHARKHUNTERS have been aware of this ‘air bridge’ to Spain - AND OF THE SEA-LIFT onwards to South America, for some time and you will read all those files after the conclusion of the DON ANGEL story. Operation ‘FEUERLAND’ brought something like $100 million in gold to Argentina and Juan Peron told the Germans who were administering this fund that he would take $60 million for himself, and the Germans could have the other $40 million - and they could live! Who can argue with logic like that? If I remember correctly, it was soon after this ‘transaction’ that Peron bought the Argentine railroads, which previously had belonged to the British. Has anyone bothered to look to see where Juan and Evita got all this money to buy the railroads? According to other reports, when Evita went to Europe in 1947 the real reason for the trip was to set up the hidden bank accounts to handle all this money, through bankers in Geneva, Neuchatel, Berne and Lucerne in Switzerland. Through our S.E.I.G. Agents, we have been able to determine what other countries were helping escaping Nazis reach safe haven in South America - and just how they managed this seemingly impossible task. It wasn’t really so impossible when you see how they were helped and by what countries; and how the victors either turned a blind eye to these escapes, or were just plain stupid.
