From a website called ricochet.com:

Quote
While perusing various online collections of propaganda posters I came upon this one:

(http://cdn.ricochet.com/var/ezwebin_site/storage/images/media/images/henrymorgenthau2/1728699-1-eng-US/henrymorgenthau_medium.jpg)

The subject matter is Henry Morganthau, Jr., Franklin Roosevelt's Secretary of the Treasury. What caught my eye was not the usual anti-Semitic angle of Nazi Propaganda, but the percent sign. The intimation here is that Jews controlled 98% of the money in America, or inversely, Jews were the top 2%.

Some of the accompanying material sounds like it came right of the "Occupy" handbook. In a publication about the United States titled, Das Land ohne Herz (The Land without Heart), it concludes this way:

"There is nothing in the American system worth imitating...If Americanism conquered the world, it would mean the end of all human values and of genuine freedom — the freedom to do something, not from something! — of all the values for which Europe has fought and suffered for millennia, for which it has given all its strength of body and soul.

No European could exchange places with an American. America is a pitiable country and the Americans are a betrayed people, betrayed by their leaders, betrayed and deceived in a simply indescribable way by their self chosen leader...”
