Meer over het boek

HITLER'S SECRET BANKERS reveals how the Swiss banks profited from Nazi genocide. Recent press stories showed that Swiss banks are sitting on millions deposited by Jews before the Second World War. Ever since, they have been stonewalling attempts by relatives of Holocaust victims to claim this money. But these are small amounts compared to the Nazi gold that flowed through Swiss banks - gold which was looted from occupied countries and even from the corpses of dead Jews. The Swiss banks played a vital role in financing the Nazi war machine. And while the Swiss were profiting from the results of Nazi genocide, the government was also refusing entry to Jewish refugees, effectively condemning them to death. With the recent declassification of US intelligence documents the whole shameful history of Swiss/Nazi collaboration has been uncovered, striking at the very heart of the Swiss ideal of neutrality.
