country who determine the policy, and It is always a simple matter to drag people
along whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a
communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice the people always be brought to the
bidding of the leaders. This is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being
attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country
to danger. It works the same in every country."
"We Jews, we are the destroyers and will remain the destroyers. Nothing you can do
will meet our demands and needs. WE WILL FOREVER DESTROY because we want a
world of our own." - You Gentiles, page 155.
- Maurice Samuel (A Jewish and Zionist intellectual, he is best known for his work You
Gentiles, published in 1924. Most of his work concerns Judaism and the Jew's role in
history and modern society)

H. L. Mencken wrote in The American Mercury for April 1924 that the aim of public
education is not to fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their
intelligence. ... Nothing could be further from the truth. The aim ... is simply to reduce
as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a
standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality. That is its aim in the
United States.
"Most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker, but only to give moral
cowards an excuse not to think at all".
- Michael Rivero
- Neil Postman
“Most people prefer to believe that their leaders are just and fair, even in the face of
evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government
under which he lives is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she
will do about it. To take action in the face of corrupt government entails risks of harm
to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one’s self-image of
standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice.
Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give
moral cowards an excuse not to think at all.”
Michael Rivero
“The best way to destroy the capitalist system is to debauch the currency.”
We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you

They own you.

The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American
public believes is false."
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by

Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the Industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it
our responsibility to bring this about?
“Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and
hurry off as if nothing ever happened.”
- Winston Churchill
Hylan's most famous words against "the interests" was the following speech, made in
1922, while he was the sitting Mayor of New York City (1917-25):
‘The real menace of our Republic is the invisible government, which like a giant
octopus sprawls its slimy legs over our cities, states and nation. To depart from mere
generalizations, let me say that at the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller-
Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally
referred to as the international bankers. The little coterie of powerful international
bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes.
‘They practically control both parties, write political platforms, make catspaws of
party leaders, use the leading men of private organizations, and resort to every
device to place in nomination for high public office only such candidates as will be
amenable to the dictates of corrupt big business.
This "invisible government", Hylan and others - William Jennings Bryan, Charles
Lindbergh Sr. (R-MN) - argued, exercised its control of the US Government through
the Federal Reserve.
We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is
whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent.

System)

- James Madison
“The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children.”
- Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945)
"Interventionism cannot be considered as an economic system destined to stay. It is
a method for the transformation of capitalism into socialism by a series of successive
steps. Credit expansion is not a nostrum to make people happy. The boom it
engenders must inevitably lead to a debacle and unhappiness."
Was a leading American Socialist, pacifist, and six-time presidential candidate for the
Socialist Party of America. In a quote from his 1944 speech he stated.
"The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But, under the name of
Liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist Program until one day
America will be a Socialist country without knowing how it happened." He went on to
say..." I no longer need to run as a presidential candidate for the Socialist Party. The
Democratic Party has adopted our platform."
Our race is the Master Race. We are divine gods on this planet. We are as different
from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact, compared to our race, other
races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Other races are considered as human
excrement. Our destiny is to
rule over the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a rod
of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves."
"The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies,
one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only
to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost
identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election
without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy."
"The Power of financial capitalism had [a] far reaching plan, 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 feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world
acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and
conferences.
The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel,
Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks, which
were themselves private corporations. Each central bank sought to dominate its
government by its ability to control treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges,
to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence co-
operative politicians by subsequent rewards in the business world."
Carrol Quigley, Tragedy and Hope, 1966 - [Bill Clinton's mentor and Georgetown
University professor]
“We cannot expect the Americans to jump from capitalism to Communism, but we
can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans small doses of socialism until
they suddenly awake to find they have Communism.”
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
- Edmund Burke
"Capital must protect itself in every possible manner by combination and legislation.
Debts must be collected; bonds and mortgages must be foreclosed as rapidly as
possible. When, through a process of law, the common people lose their homes they
will become more docile and more easily governed through the influence of the
strong arm of government, applied by a central power of wealth under control of
leading financiers. This truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in
forming an imperialism of Capital to govern the world. By dividing the voters through
the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over
questions of no importance. Thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves what
has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished.”
"We should be teaching students how to think. Instead, we are teaching them what to
think." Clement and Lochhead, 1980, Cognitive Process Instruction.
"If I was an Arab leader, I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: We
have taken their country. ... They only see one thing: we have come here and stolen
their country."
-David Ben-Gurion [1886-1973]
The great Austrian School Economist, Ludwig von Mises wrote, “There is no means of
avoiding the final collapse of a boom brought about by credit expansion. The
question is only whether the crisis should come sooner as a result of a voluntary
abandonment of further credit expansion, or later as a final and total catastrophe of
the currency system involved.” There has never been any attempt to abandon the
credit expansion. Indeed any crisis was simply an excuse to open the monetary
spigots. This, then, is the beginning of the total catastrophe of the American dollar,
indeed the entire world monetary and financial structure.
"The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and
those who have no such desire."
"Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the
past."
-George Orwell
“Money has no Motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency;

"There's no God-given gift of a 'AAA' rating," Standard & Poor's John Chambers told
Reuters in September. "The U.S. has to earn it like everyone else."
"The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us,
we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water
shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill." from 'the First Global Revolution' by

“It is essential that the sufferings of Jews. . . become worse. . . this will assist in
realization of our plans. . . I have an excellent idea. . . I shall induce anti-semites to

strengthen the persecution and oppression of Jews. The anti-semites shall be our best
friends”
An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth

policies of this country, for if they did there would be a revolution by morning”.
- Henry Ford
Even if you are in a minority of one, the truth is still the truth.

In religion and politics, people’s beliefs and convictions are in almost every case
gotten at second-hand, and without examination, from authorities who have not
themselves examined the questions at issue, but have taken them at second-hand
from other non-examiners, whose opinions about them were not worth a brass
farthing.
- Mark Twain
- Albert Einstein
Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking
about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.
Fictions are necessary to the peoples, and the Truth becomes deadly to those who
are not strong enough to contemplate it in all its brilliance. In fact, what can there be
in common between the vile multitude and sublime wisdom? The truth must be kept
secret, and the masses need a teaching proportioned to their imperfect reasons.
You’re free. And freedom is beautiful. And, you know, it’ll take time to restore chaos
and order -order out of chaos. But we will.
People never lie so much as after a hunt, during a war or before an election.
- Thomas Jefferson
Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of
the United States, characterizing my family and me as “internationalists” and of
conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political
and economic structure—one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and
I am proud of it.
“The central bank is an institution of the most deadly hostility existing against the
principles and form of our Constitution.. If the American people allow private banks to
control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the
banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all
their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers
conquered.”
- Thomas Jefferson.
“You are a den of vipers and thieves. I intend to rout you [jews] out, and by the
Eternal God, I will rout you out. If the American people only understood the rank
injustice of our money and banking system, there would be a revolution before
morning.”
- Andrew Jackson
“The Great Depression was not accidental, it was a carefully contrived occurrence.
The international Bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair here so that
they might emerge as rulers of us all.”
- Louis McFadden
“The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world government, 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.”
“Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes the
laws.” Mayer Amschel Rothschild, founder of the Rothschild international Banking
Dynasty, 1790
“The Bolshevik Revolution in Russia was the work of Jewish planning and Jewish
dissatisfaction. Our Plan is to have a New world Order. What worked so wonderfully in
Russia, is going to become Reality for the whole world.”
“The Jewish people….will attain World domination by the dissolution of other races…
& by the establishment of a world republic in which everywhere the Jews will exercise
the privilege of citizenship. In this New World Order, the Children of Israel…will
furnish all the leaders without encountering opposition…
“The International Jewish bankers rule the world through debt, which is money they
create out of nothing. They need world government to ensure no country defaults or
tries to overthrow them. As long as private bankers, instead of governments, create
money the human race is doomed. These bankers and their allies have bought
everything and everyone.”
- Henry Makow
“The Federal Reserve banks are one of the most corrupt institutions the world has
ever seen. There is not a man within the sound of my voice who does not know that
this nation is run by the International Jewish bankers.”
- Napolean
"There’s a crisis in the White House, and to save the election, they’d have to fake a
war."
If you must break the law, do it to seize power: in all other cases observe it.
- Julius Caesar
'If the Nation can issue a dollar bond it can issue a dollar bill. The element that makes
the bond good makes the bill good also. The difference between the bond and the bill
is that the bond lets the money broker collect twice the amount of the bond and an
additional 20%. Whereas the currency, the honest sort provided by the Constitution,
pays nobody but those who contribute in some useful way. It is absurd to say our
Country can issue bonds and cannot issue currency. Both are promises to pay, but
one fattens the usurer and the other helps the People. If the currency issued by the
People were no good, then the bonds would be no good, either. It is a terrible
situation when the Government, to insure the National Wealth, must go in debt and
submit to the ruinous interest charges...'
- Thomas Edison
“World events do not occur by accident: They are made to happen, whether it is to
do with national issues or -commerce; and most of them are staged and managed by
those who hold the purse strings.”
- Bertrand de Jouvenel
The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been two hundred years.
These nations have progressed through this sequence. From bondage to spiritual
faith; from spiritual faith to great courage; from courage to liberty; from liberty to
abundance, from abundance to complacency; from complacency to apathy, from
apathy to dependence, from dependence back into bondage.

"Who will govern the governors? There is only one force in the
nation that can be depended upon to keep the government pure
and the governors honest, and that is the people themselves.
They alone, if well informed, are capable of preventing the
corruption of power, and of restoring the nation to its
rightful course if it should go astray. They alone are the
safest depository of the ultimate powers of government"
-- Thomas Jefferson
"If the American people ever allow the banks to control the
issuance of their currency, first by inflation, and then by
deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around
them will deprive the people of all property, until their
children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers
conquered. The issuing power of money should be taken from
banks and restored to Congress and the people to whom it
belongs. I sincerely believe the banking institutions having
the issuing power of money, are more dangerous to liberty than
standing armies."
-- Thomas Jefferson

"Find out just what the people will submit to and you have

"Why of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor
slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he
can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece?
Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia,
nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is
understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country
who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to
drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist
dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.
Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the
bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is
tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the
peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to
danger. It works the same in any country."

"So where is the oil going to come from?... The Middle East,
with two-thirds of the world's oil and the lowest cost, is

-- Richard Cheney - Chief Executive Of Halliburton
"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip
the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is
indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just
as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached
a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has
closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of
the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and
blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto
the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I
have done. And I am Caesar."
-- Julius Caesar
"If the war on terror is real then the first thing that would

"The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can
shield the people from the political, economic and/or military
consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for
the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the
truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension,
the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State."

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But
it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates
is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner
openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate
freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys,
heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor
appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his
victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he
appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all
men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and
unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he
infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A
murderer is less to fear."
--Marcus Tullius Cicero 42B.C.
"It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our

"Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the
most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ

"Unless you become more watchful in your States and check this

"Next the statesmen will invent cheap lies, putting the blame
upon the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad
of those conscience-soothing tactics, and will diligently
study them, and refuse to examine any refutations of them; and
thus he will by and by convince himself that the war is just,
and will thank God for the better sleep he enjoys after this
process of grotesque self-deception."
-- Mark Twain
"You let men in power assume power ‘for the Little Man’. But

responsible for the spread of fascism.
"The truth is, all might be free if they valued freedom, and

"To do evil a human being must first of all believe that what
he's doing is good... Ideology - that is what gives devildoing
its long-sought justification and gives the evildoer the
necessary steadfastness and determination. That is the social
theory which helps to make his acts seem good instead of bad
in his own and others' eyes, so that he won't hear reproaches
and curses but will receive praise and honors."
-- Alexander Solzhenitsyn
"That there are men in all countries who get their living by
war, and by keeping up the quarrels of nations, is as shocking
as it is true; but when those who are concerned in the

unpardonable."
