THE POWER ELITE'S USE OF WAR AND DEBT

Several hundred years ago, the Bank of England was established by
money from the Bank of Amsterdam and the Dutch power elite, who
also brought William and Mary to power in England in 1689. Within 9
years, King Willilam got the British Treasury in great debt to the
Bank of England, following the power elite's principle of "get them
in debt" to control them. This principle was used thorughout the
18th and 19th centuries via costly wars to control entire nations
which had imperialist ambitions.
Tremendous fortunes were built during this time by the power elite,
primarily reflected in emerging oil cartels such as Standard Oil
(Rockefellers) with Anglo-Iranian (worked with Rhodes/Milner Group)
and Shell (Royal Dutch, William and Mary came to England from
Holland). By the early 20th century, John D. Rockefeller had his
agents in every hamlet of the U.S., and foundations (e.g.,
Rockefeller) were used to further the power elite's designs.
Congressional Research director Norman Dodd said that minutes from
a Carnegie Endowment meeting revealed the attitude that war would
be a primary vehicle for accomplishing their goals.
Both Presidents Woodrow Wilson and FDR have spoken and written
about these powerful people who literally own our government. This
power elite has had its operatives in key positions, and a young
Druid, Winston Churchill, conducted a study of what the U.S.
reaction would be if a passenger liner with Americans on board were
to be sunk by a German submarine. Some years later, British
Secretary of State Sir Edward Grey (close to the Rhodes/Milner
Group) deliberately misled German Ambassador Lichnowsky to begin
World War I. And Lord Esher (member of Cecil Rhodes' Circle of
Initiates) plotted "to shed American blood as soon as possible" to
get the U.S. into the war.
Why a war with Germany? This was done to weaken Germany militarily
and economically as a threat to the power elite's plans, including
access to Middle East oil. After the war, Sir Percy Cox (Rhodes/
Milner Group) carved up the Middle East into various nations,
establishing Kuwait as a block to Iraq's access to the sea, thus
controlling oil routes. The First World War was also fought to get
nations in debt and to bring about the power elite's League of
Nations as a world government.
When the League wasn't successful, a second world war was needed,
so the power elite built up Germany again as well as imperialist
Japan, even selling the latter scrap metal with which to build
warships. Nazi officers were on many Standard Oil tankers to be
sure they weren't sunk. And the German General Staff developed a
secret plan to bring about the power elite's control beginning in
the 1990s (see Chapter 9 of Sumner Welles' THE TIME FOR DECISION,
1944). Prime Minister Churchill (who had a "secret circle") and FDR
knew about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in advance (see
Skull & Bones member Henry Stimson's diary about FDR maneuvering
Japan into firing the first shot). The Second World War also
allowed the permanent stationing of U.S. forces in Germany and Japan.
After World War II, the power elite finally fulfilled the promise
of the Balfour Declaration to the Jews, and the nation of Israel
was established in 1948. This was not due to any particular
affinity for the Jewish people, but rather to have a militarily
strong but economically dependent (and therefore subject to
coercion) country in the midst of Arab oil nations. An example of
Israel being able to check Arab military efforts can be seen with
the Israeli victory in their 1967 war. But the power elite's
"management" of Israel can also be seen in the recent Israeli
failure to crush Hezbollah, probably due to economic coercion
(e.g., threats of no further loans or foreign investments).
The year after the founding of Israel, the power elite in 1949
facilitated the success of the Chinese Communists over Chinese
Nationalists, who relocated largely to Taiwan, thus allowing the
permanent presence of U.S. forces there. The permanent stationing
of U.S. troops in South Korea near the north of China and the south
of the USSR was facilitated by the deliberately "no win" Korean War
in the early 1950s.
I have quoted many times Lincoln Bloomfield's 1962 study for the
State Department, in which he indicated that if the Communist
dynamic were greatly abated, the West might lose whatever incentive
it has for world government. Thus, it was important to the power
elite that the USSR and China be perceived as real threats so as to
further the dialectical process that would synthesize Eastern
Communism and Western Capitalism into a final World Socialist
Government. Ford Foundation president H. Rowan Gaither in 1953 even
told Norman Dodd (mentioned earlier) that they and others were
under directives from the White House to so alter life in the U.S.
as to make possible a comfortable merger with the Soviet Union.
Also in 1953, the independent elected Iranian leader, Mossadegh,
was removed from office by the power elite (via the CIA and Allen
Dulles) because he nationalized Iranian oil, which greatly
displeased the oil cartel mentioned earlier. The year after
Mossadegh was ousted, the Dutch (remember Royal Dutch Shell
mentioned earlier) hosted the first Bilderberg meeting where,
according to William Jasper in GLOBAL TYRANNY...STEP BY STEP, "the
international ruling elite meet to scheme and palaver."
War was used by the power elite again in the 1960s and 1970s with
the Vietnam War serving more than one function. First, it served to
distract from radical domestic changes the power elite wanted, as
described in James Kunen's THE STRAWBERRY STATEMENT. In this book,
he revealed ESSO (Rockefeller) money was used to try to "buy up a
few radicals" to seem so extremely liberal, the populace would not
notice the power elite's own move to the left (e.g., "ping pong
diplomacy" opening up China to the West). Also, Vietnam was another
deliberately "no win" war that "turned off" youth from patriotic
nationalism as part of the power elite's created "generation gap."
That this can be recognized as part of the power elilte's plan is
evident from Philip Freneau's July 1792 AMERICAN MUSEUM article,
where he warns the young American Republic that getting people in
debt and using military defeat (e.g., Vietnam War) were part of the
elite's strategy to gain control of the U.S.
It was also toward the end of the Vietnam War that the power
elite's agent, Henry Kissinger, revealed how they think about us
common folk when he stated that soldiers are simply "dumb animals"
to be used in the furtherance of an administration's foreign policy
decisions. That the Vietnam War wasn't a "real war" seems clear
from the fact that the U.S. continued financially to assist the
USSR and China throughout the war, even though they were the 2
nations primarily responsible for North Vietnam's and the Viet
Cong's ability to wage war against the U.S.
In the 1980s, the power elite turned its attention to the Persian
Gulf causing a prolonged war between Iraq and Iran (both sides were
assisted by the U.S.). Iraq won this war but accrued great debt as
a result, and when the power elite denied Saddam Hussein loans to
pay off the debt, he invaded Kuwait which he thought had given (not
loaned) him the funds to conduct the war against Iran. In a repeat
of Lord Grey's misleading Germany to begin World War I, American
Ambassador to Iraq April Glaspie seems to have misled Saddam into
thinking he would not be opposed if he invaded Kuwait. This was all
done to "set up" Saddam, whom the power elite did not want to
obtain undue influence over oil production in the Gulf region.
It was one thing to reduce Saddam's military strength in the first
Gulf War, but it was quite another thing to persuade people to
support an occupation of that nation. That would take a pretext or
incident like 9/11, which Bush administration officials immediately
tried to blame on Saddam. Remember that longtime Middle East CIA
agent Robert Baer in SEE NO EVIL indicated that a high-ranking CIA
officer said 9/11 would eventually be considered a "triumph" of the
intelligence community, not a failure.
The prolonged chaos (now over 4 years) in Iraq has allowed U.S.
troops to obtain a permanent military presence there in the region,
which is what the power elite wanted all along. The removal of the
Taliban from power in Afghanistan after the attacks of 9/11 also
facilitated the permanent presence of U.S. military forces in the
Caspian region, likewise part of the power elite's plan. According
to famous author H. G. Wells in THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME (1933),
there will be eventually a conference in Basra, Iraq, which will
bring to fruition the power elite's ultimate goal of a World
Socialist Government.
This goal has been pursued for many years using primarily wars and
debt. For recent examples concerning debt accrued by means other
than war, see John Perkins' AN ECONOMIC HIT MAN and Steve Hiatt's A
GAME AS OLD AS EMPIRE. Examples include the Philippines being told
to borrow great sums of money to improve its infrastructure so that
factories will locate there, but then cheaper labor is found in
other countries, so Filipinos are left holding the bag. Also, the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank funnel loans to
nations where dictators pocket the money in their offshore
accounts, and the people of that country are left to pay the debt
and restructure their economies along the lines required by the IMF
and World Bank
