The Nazi party grew out of several occult groups that sprung up in the late 19th century as a reaction to the advanced materialism and technology of the era. These groups spoke of the coming of a new Messiah that would save Germany. Young Adolf Hitler developed the notion that perhaps he was the chosen one to save the German people. The political parties created in the wake of the country's defeat in World War I combined nationalistic sentiment and occultist practices to forge an image of a superior German people. Hitler's imprisonment after the failed 1923 Munich Beer Hall Putsch would make him a national hero for his defense of a strong German state, convincing him that he was the Messiah who could save Germany. Hitler appropriated Christian religioussymbols such as the Spear of Destiny and the Holy Grail for his own purposes. He adopted the swastika, which contained occult significance from earlier cultures, as the symbol of Nazi Germany. Adolf Hitler's rise was the product of forces and events conne

Charles Ponzi became known in the early 1920s as a swindler in North America for his money-making scheme. He promised clients a 50% profit within 45 days, or 100% profit within 90 days, by buying discounted postal reply coupons in other countries and redeeming them at face value in the United States as a form of arbitrage.
In reality, Ponzi was paying earlier investors using the investments of later investors. His scheme ran for over a year before it collapsed, costing his "investors" $20 million.
While this type of fraudulent investment scheme was not originally invented by Ponzi, it became so identified with him that it now is referred to as a Ponzi scheme.

" In the mid-1930s, Thomas Dewey burst onto the national scene as the prosecutor who put ""Lucky"" Luciano behind bars. A decade later, then Governor Dewey of New York commuted Luciano's sentence because of his contributions to the American effort in World War II! PROJECT UNDERWORLD is a riveting look at the unholy wartime alliance between U.S. intelligence agencies and organized crime. Discover how a fear of pro-fascist elements among recent Italian immigrants led the Office of Naval Intelligence to recruit underworld figures to root out security leaks along New York City's vital waterfront. The ""ferret squad,"" as it was known, was led by Lieutenant Commander Charles Haffenden. By 1942, his contacts included Bugsy Siegel, Mike Lascari and Frank Costello. And none of this could have happened without Luciano's jailhouse blessing, arranged by go-between Meyer Lansky.
