UFO ROUNDUP Volume 6, Number 15 April 12, 2001 Editor: Joseph Trainor < http://ufoinfo.com/roundup/ > 1793: SINISTER CITIZEN April 8 marks an important date in conspiracy history--the arrival of Citoyen (Citizen) Genet in Charleston, South Carolina. Genet was born on January 8, 1763 at Versailles in France, the son of Marie Anne Louise Cardon de Genet and Edme Jacques Genet, a high-ranking bureaucrat in the French Foreign Office who specialized in Anglo-American relations. The Genets were friends of Benjamin Franklin, active in Freemasonry and moved in philosophy circles. Edmond had a gift for languages, easily mastering Spanish, English, German and Russian. After graduating from the university, he took over his father's job at the Foreign Office and soon came to the attention of the former prime minister, the Comte (Count) de Vergennes Like Dr. Franklin, the UK's Sir Francis Dashwood and Lord Dalrymple, Vergennes seems to have been part of an informal "International Party" that was talking about a "New Europe" at a time when Illuminati founder Adam Weishaupt was still teaching college courses and Anacharsis Clootz was still wandering around the Middle East. (For more on Clootz, the self-styled "Secretary-General and Orator of the Human Race," see UFO Roundup, volume 5, number 16 for April 29, 2000, "Unforgettable Anacharsis Clootz," page 6.) Through Vergennes, Genet was introduced to Charles Francois LeBrun and Philippe, Duc (Duke) d'Orleans, younger brother of King Louis XVI, and became a regular at the Lodge of the Nine Sisters, a favorite hangout of the Illuminati. In 1786, Weishaupt suggested to LeBrun that the order send Genet to Russia, to help foment revolution there. So Genet became charge d'affaires at the French embassy in St. Petersburg. Here he worked with the Sicilian Illuminatus Joseph Balsamo, also known as the magician Cagliostro, in recruiting Russian nobles into the Illuminati. Genet was a big success in Russia. He spoke the language so well that people thought he was from Voronezh. Among the Illuminati he worked with in Russia were Nicholas Novikov, editor of the newspaper The Wasp, and Prince Pavel Dolgorukii, who, by the way, was the maternal grandfather of Theosophy founder Elena Petrovna von Hahn Blavatsky. By 1790, there were 165 Masonic lodges in Russia, all reporting to the Grand Lodges of St. Petersburg and Moscow. Many of the lodges had been "Illuminized" by Genet and Novikov. Alarmed by the violent turn the French Revolution took in August 1792, and by the arrest of the royal family, Tsaritsa Ekaterina (also known as Catherine the Great) asked her trusted advisor, Count Platon Subtov, to investigate the "Martinists," as the Illuminati were called in Russia. As a result, Genet was arrested and sent home to Paris. Weishaupt and his inner circle decided to try their luck elsewhere. Brissot, another friend of Genet's and LeBrun's from the Foreign Office, was on the verge of becoming France's prime minister. He arranged for the Convention to send Genet to the USA as the new French ambassador. Publicly, Genet's diplomatic mission was to persuade President George Washington to honor the Treaty of 1778 and enter the new European War on the French side. But Genet had a hidden agenda, as well, to carry out a bizarre scheme hatched by Weishaupt and "Secretary-General" Clootz. Governor Moultrie and the people of Charleston welcomed Genet on April 8, 1793 with a great "civic feast" and much fanfare. Women baked cakes in the shape of royal coats-of-arms and the partygoers had fun slicing them up and gobbling down the pastry. Genet was even more popular in the new territories of Kentucky and Tennessee. But President Washington wasn't so thrilled with the new ambassador. Washington had originally approved of the French Revolution. But the arrest of the king, to whom he had written on several occasions, troubled him, and the arrest and exile of his old comrade-in-arms, the Marquis de Lafayette, angered him, as did the massacre of Lafayette's mother's family, the de Noailles. No sooner had Genet arrived in Philadelphia (then capital of the USA--J.T.) than trouble began. Genet organized a Democratic Society of Philadelphia, an organization designed to agitate for "a new republic," and to elect candidates more favorable to France. The society eventually gave its name to the political faction around Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, which became the Democratic-Republican Party, and in the next century, the Democratic Party. Jefferson defended the French Revolution and its ideals. Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton and John Jay were pro-British and looked on les Brissotins like Genet as "murderers, criminals and mad dogs." Hamilton complained, "He (Jefferson) has a womanish attachment to France." Genet grew bolder. Soon he was acting like he was the president, not George Washington, recruiting troops in Kentucky, outfitting privateers and writing columns in the Gazette of the United States, calling for an armed invasion of Alta Louisiana. (Editor's Note: At the end of the War of the American Revolution in 1783, the Louisiana Territory, which had been owned by UK for 20 years, was equally divided. Everything east of the Mississippi River went to the USA; everything west of the river went to Spain, becoming La Colonia de Alta Louisiana with its capital at San Luis de Ylinois, i.e. modern St. Louis.) The city of New Orleans was the key to the fantastic plan of Weishaupt and Clootz to turn North America into a "federated continent." In short, they were going to do to Tunkashila (Lakotiya for North America). Here was Genet's secret mission, as given to him by the Illuminati. Step One: Raise an army, capture St. Louis, then sweep down the Mississippi and take New Orleans. Here Genet would proclaim the birth of a new nation, the "American Union." Step Two: Gather more troops, land at Vera Cruz, retrace the steps of Cortes and capture Mexico City. The Viceroyalty of Nueva Espana (New Spain, or modern Mexico--J.T.), adding it to the American Union. Step Three: Back to New Orleans with three Mexican armies. One lands at Mobile Bay and marches into Georgia. Another strikes from Kentucky east into Maryland and Virginia. The third goes up the Ohio River and takes Pittsburgh, then marches on Philadelphia. Step Four: A short campaign to mop up New York, the Carolinas and the New England states. Step Five: The invasion of Canada, with the Illuminati armies marching on Halifax, Montreal, Quebec, and York (modern Toronto--J.T.) Voila, Edmond Genet is absolute ruler of the "federated continent" of North America, beholden to the Illuminati for his new throne. (Editor's Comment: As wacky as it sounds, this plan was much less grandiose than Clootz's bizarre doctrine of "universal war" and a "Sherman's March" across Europe.) Although France was broke at the time, Genet had tons of money to spend on his proposed fleet of privateers. The funds were coming from Jacob and Daniel Frey, two Jewish financiers from Austria-Hungary, who were bankrolling Clootz, as well. But the source of the money is still a mystery. Genet received visits from fellow European Illuminati, such as Julien DePestre and Harman Blennerhasset. With those three in the same room together in Chester, Pennsylvania, a Parisian visitor might have thought he was at Nicholas de Bonneville's Cercle Social (Social Circle), another Illuminati hangout. But the tide of American popular opinion was gradually turning against Genet. The Roman Catholics of Pennsylvania and Maryland were incensed by the atrocities carried out in France by Illuminati commissars, such as Joseph Carriere in Nantes and Joseph LeBon in Arras. Priests and nuns murdered by the score; churches and shrines desecrated. But Genet wasn't worried. The USA was a Protestant country; Catholics were only a small minority and of no consequence. What Genet didn't count on was vociferous opposition from the "black brigades"--the fiery preachers from Puritan New England and Baptist Dixie. Soon the envoy was under attack from every pulpit, his name linked with such infamous people as Voltaire, Rousseau and Adam Weishaupt. "I have nothing against your religion," Genet responded. But in private he was singing a different tune to his aides, vowing to "drench their Geneva gowns in blood." Genet was losing support among the Jefferson party, too. Future president James Monroe complained, "He (Genet) is trying to laugh us into war." Americans were tuning him out., Genet told subordinates, "There is a marked lack of republican fervor in this country." (Editor's Note: Here Genet is using republican in the Clooyzian sense, i.e. a partisan of Clootz's "Universal Republic," or one-world government. Genet's "republican fervor" would be called internationalism or globalism today.) In early July 1793, Jefferson met privately with Genet. In a letter to his good friend and future president, James Madison, the Secretary of State wrote, "I told him (Genet) that his enticing (American) officers and soldiers >from Kentucky go against Spain was really putting a halter )noose_ around their necks for they assuredly would be hung if they commenced hostilities against a nation at peace with the United States." But Jefferson left unmentioned what Genet said to him. The envoy continued with his invasion plans, certain that Jefferson would not oppose him. Why? My theory--Genet knew Jefferson wanted to be USA president and was blackmailing him. Jefferson had served as the USA's ambassador to France a few years earlier. Jefferson at that time was a widower in his 40s, the father of two teenaged girls, and as ambassador he had all these beautiful women throwing themselves at him. He had mistresses in Paris, and a few of them still had live husbands from whom they were separated. Such behavior would not raise an eyebrow in Paris, but it would be a different story in Eighteenth Century America. A scandal could wreck his shot at the White House. And the Illuminati, with their legions of informers, knew all about his "indiscretions." For five days, Jefferson mulled it over, then he went to George Washington and told him that Genet was planning to send out his first privateer, the Little Sarah, which Genet had renamed La Petite Democrate On July 12, 1793, President Washington called a Cabinet meeting to discuss the problem. Hamilton, Jefferson and Secretary of War Henry Knox were there. The problem was a thorny. If the Little Sarah attacked a British ship, it could start a shooting war with the Royal Navy. But if the USA siezed the ship, Genet would call on the French Navy squadron, 20 warships in all, to attack Philadelphia. (Editor's Note: This was a very real concern. The USA's only navy at that time consisted of ten revenue cutters, about one-quarter the size of Denmark's navy.) Knox had two words of advice: "Sink her!" Hamilton assured the president that his revenue cutters could overtake and capture the Little Sarah if she put to sea. But it was Jefferson who came up with the ideal solution. Knock the pedestal out from under Genet's feet, the Virginian suggested. Inform the French Convention that the USA rejects Genet's credentials and request another ambassador. This would instantly transform Genet into a private citizen and not an ambassador protected by diplomatic immunity. If he sent out the Little Sarah, he could be arrested for piracy. When asked what they were going to do about Gebnet's private army in Kentucky, Washington said it was nothing the marines couldn't handle and they would deal with that problem when the time came. The time never came. Fate intervened in a surprising way. A ship from France arrived in Philadelphia with a new French ambassador aboard. The envoy presented Genet with a letter from the new prime minister, Maximilien Robespierre, inviting him home for "a consultation." The same ship brought letters from his Illuminati superiors. Nothing but bad news. Brissot defeated in the Convention, Robespierre on the ascendant. Clootz and the Frey brothers under suspicion. LeBrun and Joseph Fouche in hiding. So Robespierre wants "a consultation," does he? Genet was no fool. He knew how that conversation would go. A two-minute chat with "The Incorruptible," followed by a tumbril ride to the Place de la Guillotine. So Genet mailed in his resignation and fled to New York state, seeking sanctuary from his friend, Gov. George Clinton (no relation to our former president--J.T.) President Washington returned the arrest warrant to the new French ambassador and allowed Genet to take "early retirement." Genet bought a farm and married Cornelia Clinton, the governor's daughter, and settled down near Albany, N.Y. After his young wife died, he married another heiress, Martha Brandon Osgood. (Editor's Comment: Knowing the Illuminati penchant for poisons, it might be interesting to do a forensic analysis of Cornelia's remains. I have a feeling this Illuminatus murdered his wife to obtain her money.) In 1816, his fellow Illuminatus, Jacques Billaid-Varenne, was released >from prison in French Guiana and came to New York City. Genet rushed down the Hudson River to meet with him. "I want to talk to you," Genet said, "I've been stuck in this country for over twenty years. What the hell happened over there in Paris?" "Well, in a nutshell, Marat and Robespierre turned on us," Billaud-Varenne replied, "Between them, those two idiots wrecked our New World Order." Edmond Genet, the man selected by Weishaupt to become the dictator of a "federated" North America, lived out the rest of his life in upstate New York, dying on his far, in Schodak, N.Y. on July 15, 1834. He was the grumpy old guy who never said much. But if you ever wanted to drive him into a screaming rage, all you had to do was utter the magic word...Jefferson! So ended the Illuminati's first attempt to subvert and destroy the USA. But the idea of the "American Union" was too attractive to the Illuminati for them to dump it. They would try again. One thing about Weishaupt and crew--they did learn from their mistakes. If the American people would not follow a "foreigner." then they would have to find a charming and charismatic American to serve as their front man. Ten years later, they found him. His name was Aaron Burr.

(Editor's Comment: And that, boys and girls, is why the Illuminati hate Thomas Jefferson's ass with a vengeance. And also why the USA's third president always gets badmouthed on TV and in the movies. Still, he put his political future on the line to ensure the survival of the USA, and that makes him a hero in my book -- Terry W.
