1. when bush senior was elected to the office of president of the usa in the late eighties a jewish co worker came over smiling like a cat who swallowed a camery stating to me thet america has it’s first jewish american president. i asked him as to how did he arrive at this conslussion as bush senior was a episcopalian christian protistant denomination. he replied that the senior bush was a direct descendent of col. solomon bush the famous jewish american revolutionary war hero. i doubted his claim but with all that happened i believe him now. this explains the reason behind bush’s role in getting america involved in the first iraqi war. the subsequent stealing of the presidential election twice by bush junior and getting america involved in the the second iraq war and the afghanistan war and looting oof the us treasury and transferring the wealth of america for the benefit of israel and the khazar judaic banksters.

   Solomon Bush: Is Remembered As A Soldier and Citizen
   by Seymour “Sy” Brody

   Lieutenant Colonel Solomon Bush was the highest-ranking
   Jewish officer in the Continental Army and was decorated for his bravery in action.
   The son of Mathias Bush, a merchant, he was born in Philadelphia in 1753.
   His first duty in the War of Independence was as
   deputy adjutant general of the Pennsylvania State Militia.
   At Brandywine, the militia encountered the British Army. Bullets
   and cannon balls flew through the air as the two armies intensified
   their battle. Captain Lewis Bush, the colonel’s brother, was mortally
   wounded.

   Colonel Bush was deeply involved in the battle and he received a
   near-fatal wound that affected him for the rest of his life. Although he
   survived the battle, he was captured when the British took Philadelphia.
   He was later freed in an exchange of prisoners between the British and the Americans.

   Upon his release, he applied for rations and back pay, and the Supreme
   Executive Committee of the Continental Army reviewed his request and his records.
   The review disclosed the distinguished and brilliant service that Colonel Bush had rendered in and out of battle,
   especially during the winter of 1776, “when the service was critical and
   hazardous.” The Supreme Executive Committee presented him with a
   special citation.

   After the war, Colonel Bush went to England seeking better medical
   care for his war wound. While he was there, he again found himself in a
   position to serve his country.

   The British, still smarting over their loss in the Revolutionary War,
   were pursuing a policy that finally led to the War of 1812. The British
   were seizing and searching American ships and conscripting their sailors
   into the Royal Navy.

   In England, there was no American Consul or Ambassador present
   to intervene, so Colonel Bush took it upon himself to act on behalf of
   his fellow citizens. He reported his efforts to President George Washington,
   whose answers contained warm commendations for the Colonel’s successful interventions.

   When he returned to America, Colonel Bush applied for the position of Postmaster General,
   which had recently been vacated. He was the first Jew known to have been considered for a Cabinet
   rank in the government. He failed to get this appointment and his unhealed war
   injury hastened his death in 1796. Prior to his death, however, Colonel
   Bush contributed toward a new building for the Mikveh Israel Congregation in Philadelphia.
   He will long be remembered for his service to his country as a soldier and a citizen.
