“What is important is to dwell upon the increasing evidence of the existence of a secret conspiracy, throughout the world, for the destruction of organized government and the letting loose of evil.”
(Christian Science Monitor editorial, June 19th, l920)
This article was stimulated by the 9-11 terrorist acts. It is intended as an overview and meant for readers with a better than basic understanding of world history, this country’s foundations and the question of empire versus republic. The author will not address the underlying arguments of his statements and theses. Each basic thesis would require several books to address fully. The liberal reader will actually like many of my comments concerning corporations. Unfortunately, the liberal reader will have no idea what the commentary means or why the arguments are important.
“Today the path of total dictatorship in the United States can be laid by strictly legal means, unseen and unheard by the Congress, the President, or the people. Outwardly we have a Constitutional government. We have operating within our government and political system, another body representing another form of government – a bureaucratic elite.”
(Senator William Jenner, 1954)
The United States was designed to be a somewhat isolationist nation. One might argue that is true except for international trade. However, that would be an incorrect argument. The founders expected our nation to engage in trade, but they did not expect trade to be tied to government policies. The nation would act to protect free trade, as was the case with the Barbary pirates. But the nation would not act to ensure an American company’s profitable trade. The free trade debate still rages today. However, with government intertwined with large corporations, the country cannot respond based on the merit of free trade, but must act based on corporate interests and desires.
“We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries.”
(David Rockefeller, founder of the Trilateral Commission,June, 1991)
The government doesn’t react based on the needs of the nation, but on the needs of those controlling super corporations. There are many sickening examples of corporate-owned government. The recent Goldman-Sachs bailout by the Clinton administration, the Savings and Loans banking scandals under both political parties (John McCain and four Democrat Senators helped steal 3.4 billion from the taxpayer in the Charles Keating S&L alone. The Bush family and Clinton cronies got their shares also in a demonstration of bipartisanship all too common when it comes to robbing the average citizen) and the political crony filled Bank of Credit and Commerce International, BCCI, (estimates are over 20 billion dollars) are but three recent examples of American citizens being shaken down and/or required to underwrite the financial blunders of crooked politicians and super-rich corporate investors.
“The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one- world government combining supercapitalism and Communism under the same tent, all under their control…. Do I mean conspiracy? Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent.”
(Congressman Larry P. McDonald, 1976, killed in the Korean Airlines 747 that was
shot down by the Soviets)
Perhaps an even more extreme example of the loss of American power, prestige and honor is involved when one examines the Japanese-American business arrangement. Japan is relatively free to block the introduction of American goods into their economy. An American government laden with corporate special interests and involvement in personal schemes by a few businessmen is unable to force fair, much less free, trade with Japan.
“The powers of financial capitalism had another far reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements, arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was the Bank for International Settlements in Basle, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the worlds’ central banks which were themselves private corporations. The growth of financial capitalism made possible a centralization of world economic control and use of this power for the direct benefit of financiers and the indirect injury of all other economic groups.”
(Tragedy and Hope: A History of The World in Our Time (Macmillan Company, 1966,) Professor Carroll Quigley of Georgetown University, highly esteemed by his former student, William Jefferson Blythe Clinton. )
The solution to the Japanese trade problem would be simple and swift with a Congress free of business control. The Congress envisioned by the Founders would close the borders to all Japanese trade. America can afford economic isolation, but Japan cannot. The current situation could have never happened with a Congress loyal to the American people. Were such a Congress seated the Japanese would find a way to institute fair and free trade conditions with just the slightest indication they could lose our market.
With the solution being so simple, why do we allow the current situation to linger? The answer is once again the fat cats owning Congress. A few people have millions if not billions involved with our current Japanese relationship. They would lose if we had a Congress concerned with the citizen’s interest, instead of worrying about the kickbacks the fat-cats throw them and their place in the New World Order.
“Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men’s views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the Field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”
(Woodrow Wilson,The New Freedom (1913)
One does not have to return to President Eisenhower’s warning of the military-industrial complex to understand and fear corporate ownership of American politicians. It isn’t that recent. The problems associated with government controlled by businesses started long before the 1950s. Although the robber barons of the 1800s corrupted politicians, my concerns don’t begin with them. The robber barons were American patriots, and though twisting the capitalist system, they were for it and for the country.
“We are at present working discreetly with all our might to wrest this mysterious force called sovereignty out of the clutches of the local nation states of the world.”
(Professor Arnold Toynbee, in a June l931 speech before the Institute for the Study of International Affairs in Copenhagen.)
The real danger of corporate control of government started early in the turn of the last century. When the petroleum industry bought enough politicians to pass specialized corporate welfare, the real problems begin. The immediate result was other forms of energy could no longer compete with big oil. Steam and electric engines were, for all intent and purposes, unfairly killed as oil alternatives. America lost nearly a hundred years of development and experiments with steam, electricity and solar energy, to name three possible energy alternatives. Nearly a hundred years later this trouble from government tampering with the capitalist system continues to cost Americans economically and politically.
“The real menace of our republic is this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under cover of a self created screen….At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as international bankers. The little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes. They practically control both political parties.”
(New York City Mayor John F. Hylan, 1922)
Today, many justifiably question G. W. Bush’s war with Afghanistan. Does it have anything to do with terrorism, or do large corporate interests want control of Afghanistan for ulterior purposes? I am beginning to think the war is for business interests, and not for what the 9-11 terrorists did, and will address those reasons after the economic part of this article.
“We are not going to achieve a new world order without paying for it in blood as well as in words and money.”
(Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., in Foreign Affairs (July/August 1995)
“The world can therefore seize the opportunity [Persian Gulf crisis] to fulfill the long-held promise of a New World Order where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind.”
(George Herbert Walker Bush)
One of the largest and ever looming problems with corporate control of America is the limbo of our nation being between empire and republic. The combination of socialist idealism utilized by power hungry, super-rich individuals is to build a one world government. The forces behind a global economy and government have long been at work in America and internationally.
“Fifty men have run America, and that’s a high figure.”
(Joseph Kennedy, father of JFK, in the July 26th, l936 issue of The New York Times.)
The Constitution and Bill of Rights is the single instrument that thwarts their plans. We often focus on the U.S.S.R. as our main enemy of the past century. This is a mistake. One should look more closely at the corporate attempt within this country to force us into socialism. First, one must recognize the U.S.S.R. was controlled by the same forces that have worked to undermine America. President Franklin D. Roosevelt ensured the survival of the Soviet Union, while steering American into socialism as quickly as possible. Only a simpleton of the highest magnitude could realize that David Rockefeller (Remember the Founders concerns with a national banking system, much less an international banking system) and Armand Hammer had free access to the Kremlin throughout the existence of the U.S.S.R. and not spot a correlation.
For a long time I felt that FDR had developed many thoughts and ideas that were his own to benefit this country, the United States. But, he didn’t. Most of his thoughts, his political ammunition, as it were, were carefully manufactured for him in advanced by the Council on Foreign Relations-One World Money group. Brilliantly, with great gusto, like a fine piece of artillery, he exploded that prepared “ammunition” in the middle of an unsuspecting target, the American people, and thus paid off and returned his internationalist political support.
The UN is but a long-range, international banking apparatus clearly set up for financial and economic profit by a small group of powerful One- World revolutionaries, hungry for profit and power.
“The depression was the calculated ‘shearing’ of the public by the World Money powers, triggered by the planned sudden shortage of supply of call money in the New York money market….The One World Government leaders and their ever close bankers have now acquired full control of the money and credit machinery of the U.S. via the creation of the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank.”
(Curtis Dall, FDR’s son- in-law as quoted in his book, My Exploited Father-in-Law)
There are obvious reasons why big corporate interests via their lackeys in the U.S. Congress have worked against the individual American. Global corporate interests can not defeat the U. S. constitution, so they must undermine and change the constitution. The overt evil they’ve spawned among us has resulted in a multitude of social problems. They have increased crime, reduced the educational level of Americans, and perhaps worst of all, infected many citizens with the idea, they aren’t responsible for their actions and all life is beyond their control.
“The case for government by elites is irrefutable”
(Senator William Fulbright, Former chairman of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, stated at a 1963 symposium entitled: The Elite and the Electorate – Is Government by the People Possible? )
If one reflects for a moment these negative societal results should harm corporations functioning in a free market capitalist system. A real corporation would be working for less government and for the free market. That is not happening with most American corporations. Instead, they are supporting politicians working for socialism and against the free market. They are in cahoots with government to ship American manufacturing overseas. They strive to lower hopes and expectations for the American citizen. Their profit and power is much higher if they can develop a serf class enslaved in a socialist system.
“The Trilateral Commission is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States. The Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power political, monetary, intellectual and ecclesiastical. What the Trilateral Commission intends is to create a worldwide economic power superior to the political governments of the nation states involved. As managers and creators of the system ,they will rule the future.”
(U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater in his l964 book: With No Apologies.)
The socialist media ensured people laughed at Donald Trump’s idea of taxing the wealthy ten percent. There has to be a nefarious reason when the liberal propaganda machine doesn’t want this special group of the wealthy fleeced. If what they have done against this country via underhanded deals were measured, far more than ten percent would be taken from the corporate rulers.
“In March, 1915, the J.P. Morgan interests, the steel, shipbuilding, and powder interest, and their subsidiary organizations, got together 12 men high up in the newspaper world and employed them to select the most influential newspapers in the United States and sufficient number of them to control generally the policy of the daily press….They found it was only necessary to purchase the control of 25 of the greatest papers. “An agreement was reached; the policy of the papers was bought, to be paid for by the month; an editor was furnished for each paper to properly supervise and edit information regarding the questions of preparedness, militarism, financial policies, and other things of national and international nature considered vital to the interests of the purchasers.”
(U.S. Congressman Oscar Callaway, 1917)
The joke, “What does a new Bachelor of Arts graduate say? Want fries with that?,” sums up the accomplishments of the left and their masters. We have a Balkanization of our culture via a politically correct mentality and unconstitutionally enforced laws and edits to ensure the societal rupture. The high school graduate, much less the high school drop-out, can’t find a job to support a wife and baby. The industrial infrastructure is virtually gone. The free market doesn’t control who makes money. Instead government programs favor select groups. The college graduate struggles to not say, “Want fries with that?”
“The idea was that those who direct the overall conspiracy could use the differences in those two so-called ideologies [marxism/fascism/socialism v. democracy/capitalism] to enable them [the Illuminati] to divide larger and larger portions of the human race into opposing camps so that they could be armed and then brainwashed into fighting and destroying each other.”
(Myron Fagan)
The left has reduced us and lowered our expectations. We have an uneducated class that lacks the knowledge and understanding to see what is being done to and against them. They become more dependent on government daily and think they’re voting their interests when voting for a hand out.
“The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson.”
(A letter written by FDR to Colonel House, November 21st, l933)
The nation faces a constant assault to destroy the Second Amendment. It’s a step to debase the Constitution and eliminate the one right that ensures the existence of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. We must ask, is this Afghan war for corporate interests and to further undermine the Constitution by undermining the rights of the American citizen? Are we conservatives so afraid that we surrender rights for what we hope will be a safe existence? Is it still America when we have to have foreign planes flying overhead to protect us? Is it the United States when we waive basic rights against government snooping and search and seizure?
“Today, America would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order [referring to the 1991 LA Riot]. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told that there were an outside threat from beyond whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by the World Government.”
(Dr. Henry Kissinger, Bilderberger Conference, Evians, France, 1991 )
Before returning to the question of republic or empire we must address the current Afghanistan war and some of the main reasons to believe it has little to do with terrorism. The ruler of an Empire or the real America would have reacted much differently than Mr. Bush did after the 9-11 attack. Remember:
1. Six thousand Egyptians were not killed.
2. Thousands of Pakistani’s were not wounded from the 9-11 terrorist act..
3. No internationally known towers were leveled in England..
4. The Saudi Arabian counterpart of the Pentagon didn’t have a plane slam into it..
5. The Libyan counterpart of the Pentagon didn’t smolder for weeks..
6. The largest city in Japan wasn’t attacked..
7. The capitol of Syria wasn’t hit with kamikazes..
8. Russian heros didn’t have to fight armed hijackers to crash a plane short of Moscow.
“The term Internationalism has been popularized in recent years to cover an interlocking financial, political, and economic world force for the purpose of establishing a World Government. Today Internationalism is heralded from pulpit and platform as a ‘League of Nations’ or a ‘Federated Union’ to which the United States must surrender a definite part of its National Sovereignty. The World Government plan is being advocated under such alluring names as the ‘New International Order,’ ‘The New World Order,’ ‘World Union Now,’ ‘World Commonwealth of Nations,’ ‘World Community,’ etc. All the terms have the same objective; however, the line of approach may be religious or political according to the taste or training of the individual.”
(Excerpt from A Memorial to be Addressed to the House of Bishops and the House of Clerical and Lay Deputies of the Protestant Episcopal Church in General Convention, October 1940)
Comparisons could go on, but the point is only America was attacked. This is an American problem. There should have been no worry about having allies. Once the enemy was determined, America should have attacked the guilty. A truly American leader would have told the world, “We’re taking these bastards out and you can kiss my red, white and blue ass if you don’t like it.”
“You may be sure that in this “new international system,” the American citizen will count for precious little. Already, we are told that, henceforth, U.S. Marines may be put at the command of the United Nations’ Boutros Boutros-Ghali, to fight and die for the new world order”
(Pat Buchanan, Column 8/30/93)
At present we can only pray Mr. Bush is taking the correct actions, given the reality of the world and the moral fiber of our country. None of us can know if Mr. Bush is working with the internationalists or doing the best he can given the constraints the left and their masters have put on our country.
“We shall have world government whether or not you like it, by conquest or consent.”
(Statement by Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) member James Warburg to The Senate Foreign Relations Committee on February 17th, l950)
So, we wind up at the question whether we are to be republic or empire. I can personally go either way, depending on leadership. With the republic the Founders created, we would never have had a terrorist attack. If we decided as a nation to be empire, do we have the leadership to ensure it? It would take an Alexander, Julius Caesar or Basil II to achieve an American empire. Some time ago, I wrote what type lof a leader America needs for an empire or to really conqueror Afghanistan/Islam.
“In the next century, nations as we know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single, global authority. National sovereignty wasn’t such a great idea after all.”
(Strobe Talbot, President Clinton’s Deputy Secretary of State, as quoted in Time, July 20th, l992)
If this war on Afghanistan is valid, Mr. Bush must be prepared to do what few leaders have ever achieved. We must take Afghanistan and punish the people responsible for the terrorist attack. But that is just the beginning. Hopefully Mr. Bush will study what General MacArthur did in post World War II Japan, and how General John “Blackjack” Pershing dealt with nutty Moslems. Mr. Bush must have the steel of Basil II in his backbone. Afghanistan will have to be changed forever. The Islamic religion will have to be challenged. It will have to be clearly brought home that Mohammed and Allah are as close to divine as was the Emperor Hirohito or my hairy arse. The Afghans will have to be introduced to numerous new concepts ranging from soap to women with shaved legs. Turn their mosques into hog sheds as a start to learning about the free market and capitalism. Ship every kind of preacher into the country until we have a thousand denominations functioning there. Give them a constitution and an assembly. Be willing to demonstrate we’re prepared to kill 100,000 enemies for every American killed during the 9-11 attacks. Were Mr. Bush to do what is required it would mean the other Moslem nations would be scared into acting like they’re half civilized for fear Mr. Bush would give them the same treatment.
“The Council on Foreign Relations is “the establishment.” Not only does it have influence and power in key decision-making positions at the highest levels of government to apply pressure from above, but it also announces and uses individuals and groups to bring pressure from below, to justify the high level decisions for converting the U.S. from a sovereign Constitutional Republic into a servile member state of a one- world dictatorship.”
(Former Congressman John Rarick 1971)
I don’t believe Mr. Bush can achieve what is needed if we wage war on Afghanistan given the current situation. I can’t question if Mr. Bush would have the backbone of a Basil II, were he allowed to respond fully. However, if he can’t do the job which needs to be done, given the realities of his current office and the Congress, then I pray he gets ground troops in there quickly and kills the terrorists. After that is achieved, he should get us out and return to what the founders envisioned. In either case, republic or empire, we must stop large corporations from pulling our strings to further enrich a few people.
“The planning of UN can be traced to the ‘secret steering committee’ established by Secretary [of State Cordell] Hull in January 1943. All of the members of this secret committee, with the exception of Hull, a Tennessee politician, were members of the Council on Foreign Relations. They saw Hull regularly to plan, select, and guide the labors of the [State] Department’s Advisory Committee. It was, in effect, the coordinating agency for all the State Department’s postwar planning.” (Professors Laurence H. Shoup and William Minter, writing in their study of the CFR, “Imperial Brain Trust: The CFR and United States Foreign Policy.”
(Monthly Review Press, 1977)
