What's amazing is that it was not just IBM - the germans got oil from Standard Oil, their tanks were made by Opal (a GM subsidiary), and in many other ways the German war effort was financed and enabled by "Allied" conglomerates.

- newt 16y agotheir tanks were made by Opal (a GM subsidiary) I came here to check that, but you seem to be right - see the wikipedia article on Opel (note correct spelling) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opel http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opel The company ... has been a wholly owned subsidiary of General Motors Company since 1929. Makes one wonder about the ways we are helping our enemies today You don't have to wonder - google "US arms sales" or "us arms sales to dictators".
