oatmeal<p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Germany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Germany</span></a> / “Nazi Kapital”</p><p>Klaus-Michael Kuehne, of Kuehne + Nagel, has recently been in the spotlight for his company's actions regarding its ties with <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Israel</span></a>. Notably, Kuehne + Nagel cut its connections with <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Elbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Elbit</span></a> Systems, an Israeli military supplier, in the third quarter of 2023. </p><p>Kuehne, Germany's wealthiest person with an estimated $44 billion fortune, has been accused of profiting from the Nazi regime's persecution and genocide of European Jews through his family's logistics company, Kuehne + Nagel. The company was involved in transporting looted Jewish property during World War II as part of the "M-Aktion" operation, and its founders, Alfred and Werner Kuehne, were Nazi Party members who profited from the regime's policies. Despite being aware of his family's dark past, Kuehne has refused to publicly reckon with it or release a commissioned study on the company's history during the Third Reich. His refusal to confront the truth has been criticized by historians and survivors of the Holocaust, who argue that it perpetuates a culture of denial and revisionism in Germany.</p><p><a href="https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/richest-german-nazi-billions" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">vanityfair.com/news/story/rich</span><span class="invisible">est-german-nazi-billions</span></a></p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/israel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>israel</span></a></span> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>histodons</span></a></span> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/palestine" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>palestine</span></a></span> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/KuehneNagel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KuehneNagel</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Germany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Germany</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ThirdReich" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThirdReich</span></a></p>
