 +==== Corporate History ==== 
 + 
 +== World War II military background on Bayer ==  
 + 
 +Company President, [[Hermann Schmitz]], also directed Germany's leading industrial organization [[I.G. Farben]]. He was found guilty at [[Nuremberg trials]] for running Nazi concentration labor camps. He merely served four years in prison. According to CBS News war correspondent Paul Manning, Schmitz held more shares of [[Rockefeller]] Standard Oil Co. stock than the Rockefellers.  
 + 
 +Farben's principle partner, the Rockefellers, profited greatly from World War II. A Federal Court judgment cited the [[Standard Oil]] Co. as America's "Enemy National," that is, a "traitor." Bayer was blacklisted at that time by the U.S. Federal Government. 
 + 
 +During the late 1940s, I.G. Farben was "decartelized" by the [[Allied High Commission]] led by America's [[John J. McCloy]] -a Philadelphia banker and lawyer with intimate ties to Rockefeller oil and banking interests. **Farben stockholders received equal shares of Bayer, [[Hoechst]], and [[BASF]] stock** 
 + 
 +During the 1980s, [[Bayer AG]] and [[Baxter Healthcare]] both marketed blood clotting [[Factor VIII]]. Both firms were found guilty of knowingly transmitting the [[AIDS]] virus [[HIV]] to more than 7,000 American hemophiliacs. Both firms settled out of court for what amounted to **economically motivated genocide** ((https://web.archive.org/web/20011214123118/http://www.tetrahedron.org/articles/anthrax/anthrax_espionage.html))
