Did the German labor agency's Censorship Trio also want to hide the Nazi past of the early German Bundesbank?

Censorship Trio Bockes-Bechheim-Jäger (Munich)
In 2012 these blokes filed a criminal complaint against me for posting this on the occasion of demonstrations in Greece against the austerity dictate of the Troika Germany against the people of Greece.



That was duly followed by the first confiscation of my computer for 25 months. The Munich, police and my court appointed "lawyer" Agalai Muth colluded against me.

Did these guys thereby also want to hide this fact?

Germany’s Central Bank Backs Study of Role in Nazi Crimes

By JACK EWING NOV.  3, 2017 FRANKFURT

In  November  1941,  Karl  Blessing,  the executive  in  charge  of  the  Nazi  petroleum  monopoly wrote  a  letter  to  a  deputy  of  Adolf  Hitler’s  chief  architect. An  apartment  belonging  to  Jews  in  Berlin  was  opening up,  and  the  executive  wanted  it. After  the  war,  Blessing  became  president  of Germany’s  central  bank.  He  was  a  legendary  figure  who helped  shape  its  hard-line  focus  on  inflation.

This is a salient part:

The  researchers  will  draw  on  foreign  central  bank archives  that  have  not  been  thoroughly  examined  before. During  the  occupation  of  Greece  by  Germany  and  Italy, for  example,  the  Reichsbank  helped  engineer  runaway inflation  that  wiped  out  the  value  of  the  local  currency and  created  a  famine.  Revelations  could  fuel  resentment in  modern  Greece,  where  many  people  blame  Germany for  the  austerity  policies  imposed  on  the  country  since 2010.

The article concludes:

The  Bundesbank  study  will  be  exhaustive,  comprising eight  volumes  when  it  is  finished.  One  flaw  with  many previous  corporate  and  government  studies  is  that  they run  to  thousands  of  pages  of  dense  German,  making  them inaccessible  —  perhaps  deliberately  so  —  to  anyone  not fluent  in  the  language. But  Mr.  Ritschl  and  Mr.  Brechtken  said  their  research will  be  translated  in  its  entirety  into  English.  Under  the current  generation  of  Bundesbank  managers  —  the president,  Jens  Weidmann,  is  49  —  “there  is  much  more openness,”  Mr.  Ritschl  said.
