   I doubt the US anticipated the success of the NSDAP but support of the   
   right wing movements over the KPD and other left wing organizations was   
   a natural for the US capitalists. It was even better when the party   
   purged those who took the socialism part too seriously like the Strassers.   
      
   It's hard to pin down the turning point but the NSDAP was admired for   
   pulling Germany out of the post-Revolution chaos. Arguably they were   
   more successful in countering the Depression than Roosevelt.   
      
   Jones is just the latest incarnation of conspiracy theorists. There has   
   always been a narrative about the Rockefellers, Bushs, and other US   
   millionaires have close ties to IG Farben which was a heavy contributor   
   to the fledgling Partei. Aryanization of the company would not have   
   bothered US industrialists.   
      
   You are right, it's always for the kids.  It would be a different world   
   if the people in power actually gave a damn about the future of the   
   world rather than lining their pockets and enjoying the privileges of power.
