THE FOUNDATION
The belief in a God All Powerful wise and good, is so essential to
the moral order of the world and to the happiness of man, that
arguments which enforce it cannot be drawn from too many sources nor
adapted with too much solicitude to the different characters and
capacities impressed with it. --James Madison
__O__
ICTUS IMPRIMIS
The Lord will have compassion on Jacob and will again choose Israel,
and will set them in their own land, and aliens will join them and
will cleave to the house of Jacob. (Isaiah 14:1) ++ And the angel
said to her, 'Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with
God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and
you shall call his name Jesus. He will be great, and will be called
the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne
of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob
forever; and of his kingdom there will be no end.' (Luke 1:30-33)
++ The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most
High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be
called holy, the Son of God. (Luke 1:35) ++ And in that region
there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock
by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of
the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. And the
angel said to them, 'Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good news
of a great joy which will come to all the people; for to you is born
this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. (Luke
2:8-11) ++ Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared
with the angel, praising God and saying, Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests. (Luke 2:13-14)

No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the
reward for what he gave. --Calvin Coolidge {} Nothing can bring
you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph
of principles. --Ralph Waldo Emerson {} It doesn't take a hero to
order men into battle. It takes a hero to be one of those men who go
into battle. --H. Norman Schwarzkopf ++ Bravery is the capacity to
perform properly even when scared half to death. --General Omar
Bradley {} Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also
of the overcoming of it. --Helen Keller {} You can preach a

salvation for all mankind. --Ronald Reagan

UPRIGHT
Follow your dreams You never know where life's gonna take ya. I
never sat and thought, 'Gosh, if I work hard I'll be president of the
United States.' It wasn't in my vocabulary. But you never know. You
never know. Trust the Lord. --President George Bush ++ In a
president, character is everything. You can't buy courage and
decency, you can't rent a strong moral sense. A president must bring
those things with him He needs to have a vision of the future he
wishes to create. But a vision is worth little if a president doesn't
have the character -- the courage and heart -- to see it through.
--Peggy Noonan {} Christians view history as a cornucopia of
complexity because we understand the doctrine of original sin. We know
that because the human race is fallen, people are capable of great
evil. But because we are made in God's image, we are also capable of
great good. --Charles Colson ++ However, the Bible conceives the
world in very real terms, and recent events have clarified what the
real world is about. It's about the struggle between goodness and
wickedness, about which our Constitution is not the ultimate
authority. --David Klinghoffer ++ For a religion that is said to
respect human rights and equality, Islam does a rather thorough job of
trampling the former and denying the latter, from Africa's west coast
to East Asia. While they're voluble in demanding tolerance for their
faith, when it comes to the suffering of minorities in Islamic
countries, American Moslems are mute. --Don Feder ++ A religion
that is not in fact the government is a potential

I shall not die without a hope that light and liberty are on steady advance. And even should the cloud of barbarism and despotism again obscure the science and liberties of Europe, this country remains to preserve and restore light and liberty to them. In short, the flames kindled on the fourth of July seventeen hundred and seventy six have spread over too much of the globe to be extinguished by the feeble engines of despotism. --Thomas Jefferson __O__ INSIGHT If war is ever lawful, then peace is sometimes sinful. --C.S.

And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of God's grace. --Jerry Bridges ++ Little progress can be made by merely attempting to repress what is evil; our great hope lies in developing what is good. --Calvin Coolidge Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival. --Sir Winston Churchill __O__ UPRIGHT The way to deal with this problem is not to suddenly become a police state and say we are not going to be free and we are not going to go about our lives. We are going to go after the people who are posing this very serious danger and that's what we need to do. --DefSec Donald Rumsfeld ++ This is a war that has been launched against the United States and we need to understand that, but we do not need to cease being the United States of America in response to these attacks. --AG John Ashcroft ++ The administration has steadily moved in the right direction...from talking about justice to talking about victory...from talking about criminals to talking about enemies and...from talking about retribution to talking about defeating. These are very important changes. --Newt Gingrich ++ We are placing tremendous trust in our president to pursue our enemies as our commander-in-chief but Congress must remain vigilant as to not allow our civil liberties here at home to be eroded.

from: http://mega.nu:8080/ampp/ Click Here: A HREF="http://mega.nu:8080/ampp/"The Architecture of Modern Political Power/A - Agency of Fear Opiates and Political Power in America By Edward Jay Epstein Chapter 19 - World War III On August 2, 1971, Nelson Gross, of Saddle River, New Jersey, was chosen to lead a worldwide attack on illicit drugs. As A New Jersey politician, Gross had been successful in staging a quiet revolt against the older wing of the Republican party in New Jersey, thus gaining a modicum of power for himself in 1968. He failed to win elected office as a congressman or senator, even though he ran loyally on President Nixon's law-and-order theme. After his defeat for the Senate in 1970, Gross asked Nixon for a position in foreign policy, and Nixon appointed him senior advisor and coordinator for international narcotics matters at the Department of State. In theory, the "global war against drugs was to be coordinated by the newly created (September, 1971) Cabinet Committee on International Narcotics Control, which held its first meeting on network television and included such illustrious figures as Secretary of State William Rogers, who nominally chaired the new committee, Attorney General John Mitchell, Secretary of the Treasury John Connally, Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird, newly appointed Secretary of Agriculture Earl Butz, and CIA director Richard Helms. The committee met on only three other occasions before it was phased out after the 1972 election, and most of the day-to-day tactical decisions were left to Gross and Egil Krogh, who was, in addition to his other duties, executive director of the cabinet committee. Although a battle had temporarily been won in Turkey, the war against heroin was anything but over-at least as far as Gross and Krogh were concerned. The 1972 election was little more than a year away, and there was the dramatic possibility for further victories in the war against heroin. The rapidly expanding BNDD (its budget had trebled in four years) advanced the theory that there still remained a large Turkish stockpile of opium, which would explain the need for drug agents in the foreseeable future. According to the convenient stockpile theory, every Turkish poppy farmer had squirreled away a hoard of opium as a dowry for his daughter's marriage and for other future emergencies. Even though they were now being forced by their government to plow under their opium crops, they could reach into this presumed hoard and sell it to traffickers for the American market. President Nixon had already publicly demanded the eradication of the poppy flower from the entire world, and Gross concluded that America could not wait for the screw worm to be developed. The Golden Triangle was not only producing ten times as much illicit opium as Turkey ever produced but supplying about 20 percent of the American soldiers in Vietnam with pure heroin. Gross foresaw that it was only a matter of time before this Golden Triangle heroin found its way into the American market, and he decided to consult Graham Martin, who had been ambassador to Thailand and to Italy before becoming ambassador to South Vietnam. Much to Gross's surprise, but not necessarily to the White House staffs, Ambassador Martin, in a state of exasperation, reported in no uncertain terms that the only way of disrupting the supply of opium from the Golden Triangle was to organize assassination teams to kill the few key traffickers that controlled the trade. Though New Jersey politics in Gross's day were fairly tough, assassinations seemed extreme. Instead, Gross decided to -make heroin a primary foreign-policy objective of the United States. He ordered fifty-odd American embassies around the world to draw tip fiction plans which specified how American diplomats in those countries could stimulate interest in the heroin problem to persuade the host government to conform to American narcotics objectives, and to detail ways in which the CIA and State Department intelligence could be used to discover and intercept heroin traffic. Gross further wanted American diplomats to threaten any country that refused to cooperate in the effort with an immediate cutoff of economic and military aid. He even suggested the use of the American veto to prevent the World Bank and other international financial organizations from extending credit to such countries. There was considerable concern in the higher councils of the State Department that such "heroin diplomacy," as Gross called it, would lose more friends for the United States than it would net traffickers, and might endanger what they considered more long-term foreign-policy objectives, such as the safety of the United States. Henry Kissinger's National Security Council also had its doubts about heroin diplomacy, especially since less than two months before Gross assumed his command in the new global war, the secret report of a White House task force with representatives from both

an excerpt from: Treason's Peace Howard Watson Armbruster©1947 A Crossroads Press Book Beechurst Press New York 438 pps. -- First/Only Edition -- Out-of Print - CHAPTER XIX Behind America's Iron Curtain "CONFIDENTIALLY, it stinks," said Senator LaFollette. It was April 24, 1942, more than four months after Pearl Harbor. The Wisconsin Senator was expressing his opinion before the Senate Patents Committee of the failure of the justice Department to punish the affiliates of I.G. Farben who conspired to obstruct production of defense materials, and its neglect to require full disclosures of the know-how of the patented processes thus obstructed. Thurman Arnold, Assistant Attorney General, had been making a half-hearted defense of the consent decrees in the Standard and Alcoa-Dow cases, as having been the best which the department could obtain under the circumstances. However, it was apparent from Mr. Arnold's testimony on this occasion, and previously before the Truman Committee, that he did not wish to make public exactly what circumstances, or whose intercession had caused the justice Department to give in to the offenders after ample evidence had been uncovered for criminal prosecution for conspiracy and interference with the war effort. Mr. Arnold admitted that he had been faced with a "take it or leave it" attitude in dealing with the Farben affiliates and that when he "took it" he agreed to fines, which he considered inadequate punishment, and to terms in civil consent decrees which he conceded did not properly supply the know-how on the patents which had served as pass keys in the illegal tie-ups with Farben. While Mr. Arnold was before the Patents Committee he had ample opportunity to reveal to the Senate and the public the reasons, and the influence which caused him to consent to what amounted substantially to immunity for those who had conspired with Farben to obstruct our preparations for war. Mr. Arnold, however, chose not to volunteer such information, and the Senators who were questioning him chose not to press the questions that would have compelled him to do so. Senator LaFollette contented himself with his jibe at the odor of the situation, and Senator Bone with comments that anyone who had withheld technical knowledge and vital necessities from his country at such a time "was not decent" and "has no business in this country." Mr. Arnold, in testifying later before the Bone Committee and elsewhere made no secret of the fact that he was not in accord with the postponement of the other prosecutions which he had instituted against Farben affiliates in plastics and other munitions industries. Nevertheless he had meekly consented to them on the ground that it would interfere with the pursuance of the war to prosecute those accused of conspiring to obstruct our preparations for the war. It was not mere rumor in Washington that Thurman Arnold resigned as anti-trust chief in March 1943 because of dissatisfaction (honest rage might better describe it) with what seems to have been pseudo-legal sabotage of his efforts to eradicate Farben's industrial sabotage of this nation. Be that as it may, when the appointment was tendered him, the chunky frame of the Assistant Attorney General bounced ungracefully down the steps of the Justice building, and found dignified repose a few blocks away in the U. S. Court of Appeals of the District of Columbiawhere, as Mr. justice Axnold, he could at least write his own decisions. No obstructions were placed upon Mr. Arnold's departure. The Senate held no hearing on the confirmation of his appointment. "My friends didn't require a hearing," he told me at the time, "and my enemies were only too anxious to get me out of the justice Department." Mr. Arnold is honored for the things that he started out to do, rather than criticized for the things he did not do; and his admirers regret that he did not state in public the conclusions which he expressed so fluently in private about why his efforts had failed so dismally to put the fear of God into Farben, and its American accomplices behind bars. As the reader may by now have concluded, always it has been largely this official policy of "hush hush" that has made Farbeds subversive activities possible. After the war began and revelations of those activities began to come out, it then helped provide immunity for the individuals involved. On Feb. 11, 1942, when these very facts were tumbling out, when public indignation was mounting and Washington was seething with rumor about efforts being made to protect certain individuals who were involved with Farben, the following letter was received by the Speaker of the House of Representatives: Office of the Attorney General Washington, D. C. Honorable Sam Rayburn, The Speaker, House of Representatives, Washington, D. C. My dear Mr. Speaker: I desire to call your attention to the advisability of a law to protect the contents of secret or confidential Government

-Caveat Lector- A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/" /A -Cui Bono?- Subject: The number nineteen From: A HREF="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "[EMAIL PROTECTED] /A (Kansan1225) Date: Fri, 07 January 2000 06:28 PM EST Message-id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The United States of America is an occult project known as New Atlantis. It has been organized by clandestine Luciferian Masons (CLuMs) to help bring about the Empire of the Antichrist, a.k.a. the NWO, whose capital will be in Jerusalem. One of the prominent activities of Luciferian Masons is the performance of ritual human sacrifices, especially at the foundations of buildings, or for the success of different occult projects. The mainland of the U.S., the contiguous 48 states, is roughly shaped as a rectangle, the usual outline of a Masonic Lodge. The presiding officer of a Lodge, its Master, sits in the East, the eastern side of the rectangle. In the same way, the capital of New Atlantis, Washington, D.C., is located in the middle of the East Coast. The consecration of the capital of New Atlantis and its four sides has taken place as follows. The sacrificial victims have been the eight U.S. Presidents who have died in office. Some of these ritual victims were clandestine Luciferian Masons (CLuMs) themselves, but to be sacrificed to Lucifer is considered a very great "honor" by these Satanists. This practice re-enacts the myth of the Phoenix and the myth of the Pelican, great favorite tales of the Masons. The timing of the sacrifices was according to the 19-year Metonic cycle of the moon: The first President to die in office was William Henry Harrison in 1841, during the Metonic cycle of 1824 to 1842. Later deaths follow this pattern: Cycle of 1843 to 1861: Zachary Taylor in 1850. Cycle of 1862 to 1880: Abraham Lincoln in 1865. Cycle of 1881 to 1899: James Abram Garfield in 1881. Cycle of 1900 to 1918: William McKinley in 1901. Cycle of 1919 to 1937: Warren Gamaliel Harding in 1923. Cycle of 1938 to 1956: Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1945. Cycle of 1957 to 1975: John Fitzgerald Kennedy in 1963. Cycle of 1976 to 1994: Ronald Wilson Reagan, who experienced Luciferian Masonic death and resurrection on 3/30/1981, at the time of his "attempted assassination" by John W. Hinckley, Jr. Reagan was the ninth sitting President of New Atlantis to be offered to Lucifer. The number nine symbolizes the length of a pregnancy (9 "months") and its completion brings about a New Beginning. Therefore, CLuM Brother Reagan did not die, but was "resurrected" as another Hiram Abiff, or another Osiris. Presently we are in the Metonic cycle of 1995 to 2013. CLuM Brother Billy Blythe Jefferson Clinton was sacrificed (impeached) on December 19, 1998, on the New Moon of Hanukkah, just before the Winter Solstice. His Luciferian Masonic resurrection (acquittal) took place on 2/12/1999, the birth of previous sacrificial victim Abraham Lincoln. The sacrifices follow a schedule in time and a schedule in place. The first four victims, Harrison, Taylor, Lincoln, and Garfield, were sacrificed in Washington, D.C., to consecrate the capital, the Master's seat of New Atlantis. The next four victims were sacrificed along the four sides of the "Lodge" to secure the "foundations" of the Great Work: William McKinley was sacrificed in Buffalo, N.Y., to consecrate the nothern side of New Atlantis. Warren Gamaliel Harding was sacrificed in San Francisco, CA, to consecrate the western side. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was sacrificed in Warm Springs, GA, to consecrate the eastern side. John Fitzgerald Kennedy was sacrificed in Dallas, TX, to consecrate the southern side. After the "Master's seat", Washington, D.C., and the four sides had been consecrated, the ritual returned to D.C. for the Luciferian Masonic death and resurrection of CLuM Brother Ronald Wilson Reagan on 3/30/1981. Again, Washington was the location of the Luciferian Masonic Impeachment and Acquittal of CLuM Brother Billy Blythe Jefferson Clinton.

[CTRL] [19] The Great Heroin Coup
-Caveat Lector- an excerpt from: The Great Heroin Coup - Drugs, Intelligence, International Fascism Henrik Kruger Jerry Meldon, Translator South End Press©1980 Box 68 Astor Station Boston, MA 02123 ISBN 0-89608-0319-5 240pps - one edition - out-of-print Orginally published in Danish Smukke Serge og Heroien Bogan 1976 --[19]-- TWENTY-ONE THE COUP This chapter contains my personal interpretation of the great heroin coup. Errors are possible on any or all points, inasmuch as the clandestine operations treated in this book transpire in a closed world infested with lies and cover-ups. There will always be loose ends. The coup itself, which transferred control over the heroin gold mine from one part of the world to another, I regard as a fact of life. Similarly do I regard the involvement of elements of the White House staff. Just how high up it went the reader can decide for him or her self. Of the many heretofore mentioned details in the coup's planning and execution, I find the following essential: 1) Prior to the coup, Lansky syndicate narcotics boss Santo Trafficante, Jr. had made the necessary arrangements in Southeast Asia and Mexico, and had started a war with the Corsican Mafia. 2) Trafficante's old partner, the CIA, had long since assumed control over Southeast Asia opium smuggling, following Ed Lansdale and Lucien Conein's defeat of the local branch of the Corsican underworld. 3) In 1971, when the coup's execution was seriously under way, Cuban exiles, a group with which Trafficante enjoyed a unique rapport, appeared in the White House's mysterious narcotics operation. They were tied especially to Conein and E. Howard Hunt. 4) Through a succession of bureaucratic reorganizations the White House assumed control over narcotics intelligence and enforcement. 5) U.S. narcotics officials waged an all-out war against the Corsicans' Turkey/ Marseilles/ U.S.A. network, while warnings of a serious heroin threat from Southeast Asia were all but dismissed. 6) When the Corsican Mafia was neutralized the narcotics enforcement apparatus was suddenly reorganized as the DEA, and shortly thereafter heroin began flowing into the United States from Southeast Asia and Mexico. 7) The CIA-infiltrated DEA grabbed control of Latin America's political repression apparatus, was accused of protecting major narcotics dealers, and was exposed as an accomplice to gun-running financed with the profits from the narcotics traffic. 8) The White House protected Robert Vesco, who appears to be a central figure in the scheme of heroin smuggling and gun-running. In these eight points we find the will, the power and the motives, not for the once proclaimed victory over the traffickers, but for the dramatic transfer of underworld power that suddenly became a reality in 1973. The Syndicate was in on it. The White House, the CIA, and special lobby groups were in on it, too, at least indirectly. But we still need ask who in particular and why. We will rely on logic and guesswork, only to identify individual accomplices and their particular contributions and motives. Let us first consider the Lansky Syndicate, represented by Santo Trafficante and his Cuban narcotics Mafia. In addition to motives he might have shared with the CIA, Trafficante had many other reasons to take part in the heroin coup. First, it meant cheaper heroin deliveries and therefore greater profits. Second, he wanted the Corsicans out because, behind his and the rest of the Syndicate's backs, they had begun setting up their own U.S. distribution network. Finally, Traffiicante's drug Mob did not want to see a repeat of BNDD Operation Eagle-U.S. drug enforcement's last effective raid against his network. What were the possibilities for Traffiicante's playing an active role in the coup's execution, apart from preparation of the Southeast Asia -and Mexico-based networks? Without help from the CIA and powerful lobbies, his chances were slim. With their assistance he could infiltrate the narcotics nerve center, the White House. Here we might discuss just who in fact helped him. If it is true that Traffiicante fought the Corsicans so bitterly from 1971 on, how can it be that Marcel Boucan and his shrimpboat were seized in February 1972 with 425 kilos of pure heroin, en route to Trafficante in Florida? There is only one explanation, which Boucan himself offered in court -that Boucan was set up by his American client. How else can the unprecedented seizure by French Customs following a tip from the CIA be explained? If it was a plot to exhaust the stocks of the remaining French heroin rings, and thereby cause panic among the Corsicans, then it worked. How guilty was Richard Nixon, who presided over the heroin coup? Personally, I believe that, under strong pressure, he was a more or less willing tool, rather than the force behind it all. Pointing to Nixon's guilt are his close association with the Cuba Lobby, with people connected to Lansky and Trafficante, and

B. Yeats, 1921 In an uncertain world, facts and events don't always fit into neat informational packages. Though forewarned, some readers may still be expecting an authorative conclusion that imparts a degree of certainty. Unfortunately, there is none. There is only what Orange County District Attorney Investigator At Valdez calls a "threshold of belief." Each reader, at some point, will straddle or cross this two-way threshold of belief, choosing either to wait for more information, believe in, or disbelieve in the ritual-abuse phenomenon. This decision may or may not be influenced by "the facts." Putting belief and disbelief aside for the moment, let's reexamine the facts. Fact: Hundreds of children from all over the United States and the United Kingdom have testified in courts or disclosed during interviews with police and child-protective services that they experienced sexual abuse with ritual overtones in preschool settings. Fact: Most survivors' accounts of rituals involving crimes of infanticide, homicide, and/or cannibalism have surfaced during Some form of psychotherapy. Fact: Therapists are not criminal investigators. They are under -no professional mandate to verify a patient's claims. Fact: Contemporary psychotherapeutic theory holds that verification of patient claims would have little effect on the healing process and might actually block the formation of the bond-of-trust needed between therapist and patient. Fact: Dissociative disorders exist. There is a significant body of clinical and scientific evidence establishing the validity of the medical diagnoses of PTSD and MPD. Fact: Clinicians have identified two types of MPD: reactive and structured. Structured MPD, which is associated with trauma-structured abuse, is diagnosed with far greater regularity than reactive MPD. Fact: While the diagnosis of MPD is generally accepted within the psychological and medical communities, total consensus has not been achieved. There are still some who consider MPD a "controversial" diagnosis. They, however, may not be familiar with the research or the literature. Nor have they treated patients with MPD. Fact: All diagnoses, medical and psychological, are subject to a degree of interpretation. Fact: Clinicians report that patients diagnosed with MPD disclose that some form of severe and chronic structured abuse seems to have been used on them at a very early age. Fact: Of the thousands of legitimately tested and diagnosed case of MPD in the United States today, the overwhelming majority are women. Fact: In the past ten years, forensic evidence leading to successful prosecution has been associated with at least a dozen multiperpetrator/multivictim cases with ritual overtones. Fact: International links have been verified in several high-profile multiperpetrator/multivictim cases. Fact: Claims that organized groups perpetrate these crimes have been met with skepticism by certain academics and lawenforcement officers. Fact: Crimes committed during a religious ritual are treated no differently under the law than crimes committed at any other time. Trying a case as a "ritual crime" offers no advantage to the prosecution. Fact: Most prosecutors have no interest in establishing any religious motivation during a trial because this offers defense attorneys too many First Amendment options. Fact: Since crime centered around ritual is prosecuted in exactly the same way as ordinary crime, prosecutors discourage the labeling of these cases as "ritual" to avoid negative media attention. Fact: In the: United States, England, and Europe, there have been successfully prosecuted cases of criminals who engaged in some form of ritual prior to committing murder, or who first killed and then used the body in a ritual, or killed the victim during an activity that involved elements of religious ritual. Fact: Sexuality is often associated with these kinds of crimes. Dealing with ambiguous phenomena such as ritual abuse, even a careful observer soon discovers conflicting evidence and claims. Even facts can be given a spindepending on who presents them and the presenter's ideological agenda. And make no mistake, everyone has an agenda. Discord is amplified by emotional words and terminology. Danger always surrounds the wholesale acceptance of
Re: [CTRL] [19] Other Altars
-Caveat Lector- I found it strange that Elaine Showalter, one of the major figures in the MLA (the Modern Language Association), has written a book that ridicules those who are trying to bring the issue of ritual abuse to the attention of the public. Showalter gained her reputation as a spokesperson for feminism and, presumably, she would be the last person to debunk a human rights issue. But instead of defending the victims she's taking the establishment line. We do know that the reports are well-documented. And thanks to the work of a variety of conspiracy researchers (Alex Constantine comes to mind), in one widely publicized case in California, the McMartin Preschool affair, part of the story of the alleged victims was substantiated when tunnels were found beneath the school, much to the chagrin of sceptics and debunkers. I wonder if anyone has done any statistical studies of the number of missing children in America. Fifty years ago, were kids just disappearing as frequently as they seem to be doing today? We live in evil times.

This decision may or may not be influenced by "the facts." Putting belief and disbelief aside for the moment, let's reexamine the facts.

NOVEMBER 17, 1979 I swam in a sewer. What brought me from Phoenix to this community just south of Los Angeles was the critical August 17, 1976, police report written by Jon Sellers, which, incredibly, had not found its way to the defense until recently, more than three years, after Bolles died. On 8/17/76, investigator flew to Downey, CA after receiving a telephone call from Det. Gary Morrow of the Downey Police Department. Det. Morrow related to investigator that he was in touch with a Bill Wright who allegedly was in an alcoholic hospital with Bradley Funk shortly after the Bolles incident. He related to investigator that Mr. Wright was giving him information concerning statements that Bradley Funk allegedly made to him during their stay at the hospital. On 8/17/76 at approximately 1:30 P.m., investigator interviewed William D. Wright, c/m, D.O.B. September 21, 1921, present address of 8276 Telegraph, Downey, CA, no phone. Mr. Wright related that he is a retired truck driver. A tape recording of the conversation held with Mr. Wright was made and the tape was retained for future reference. For a complete verbatim account of what was said, please refer to the tape. The following is the highlights of the conversation held with Mr. Wright. He said that on June 7, 1976, he was admitted to the Beverly Manor Hospital located at 401 South Tustin in the city of Orange. He said that the hospital is a private hospital for alcohol and drug-related problems. He said that on June 7, 1976, he was in the detox center and was present when Bradley Funk came into the hospital on June 8, 1976 He said that at the time he did not know this was Bradley Funk but that he and this person were ultimately assigned the same room, Room #211, and spent approx. 25 days together in this room He said that Funk became very nervous following Bolles's death and bought the paper every day and received numerous clippings from Arizona concerning the Bolles investigation. He related that Funk told him that he felt his family was going to be blamed for the bombing. He said that Funk stated that in his opinion, some dog owners were the ones that killed Bolles. He also stated that there were going to be some big people hurt as a result of this and named Steiger and Goldwater. Wright said that Funk mentioned some land deals and that he at some time during the conversation believes he mentioned Max Dunlap's name. Wright was unable to be specific as to the conversation or how it took place. He did maintain, however, that at no time did Funk implicate himself or his family in the bombing of Bolles and simply stated that they were going to get the blame for it. Wright stated that he remembers Funk telling him that he believed Bolles was blown up by a controlled device and remembers him telling him that the explosives or something were purchased in San Diego. He further stated that one time during their stay together, when they were on pass, Funk took him to a hobby shop when he was buying some material for a model boat that he was putting together and at this time Funk pointed out to him a remote control device, stating that it was something like the one that was used to blow Bolles up. He said that Funk only pointed to the device through the case and did not handle or examine the device. Wright described the device as being brown but later changed the color to black and was shown a photograph of the remote-control device which investigators suspect is similar to the type that was used. At this time, Wright said that the device that Funk showed him was similar to the one that investigator had a photograph of. Sellers had concluded that a follow-up interview with William Wright wasn't necessary. I concluded differently. Through a contact I had at the California Department of Motor Vehicles, I attempted to run Wright down using his date of birth and former address, obtained from Sellers's report. But the DMV had no information on his current whereabouts. Knowing he was a retired trucker, I contacted Teamsters Local 896 in Los Angeles and talked. to Frank Martinez, a union steward. Years earlier Martinez had helped me with an investigation I conducted for the Teamsters. The Justice Department had charged them with shaking down packing houses by refusing to move meat unless paid a bribe. I was able to show that the Justice Department informants lied to obtain lenient sentences for themselves, and charges were dropped. Through Martinez I obtained Wright's current address. I didn't want to just show up on his doorstep, unannounced, but I couldn't call and make an appointment because he had an unlisted phone. So I went to a contact at the telephone companywho charged a hundred dollars

When I awoke, I could see bright sunlight at the top of the tunnel. I looked around but there was no Trisha, no copper door. I wasnt surprised. Still, I checked the wall carefully and clawed away some of the dirt. Nope. No copper door here. Just daylight and sanity. I looked at the tunnel with some suspicion. I had crawled down the tunnel, with gravity trying to pull me back up. So, logically, I would have to work my way up the tunnel, being careful that gravity didnt accelerate me along and spit me out to the external world. I tossed a rock part way up the tunnel. It came rolling back down toward me. I stuck my torso partly into the tunnel. No suction. Gravity was pulling me down. So, it was a weird tunnel. No matter from which direction you entered it, it pushed you back. Get out of me! it seemed to be saying. I worked my way through it, and stood up outside in the warm sunlight. It was mid-afternoon. Down below, my car stood on a dirt road that ended at the cliff. For off in the distance I could see a highway with two-way traffic. I sighed, looked for the baseball bat, and took it down with me. I got in the car and tossed the bat against the other door in the front seat. The gas gauge told me I had 1/8 of tank left. I started the car and headed back to the highway. There I turned back in the direction of Los Angeles. At least that part was easy. Los Angeles was always to the west, as long as you werent at the beach. I turned on the radio and found a station. They were playing a song by Shocking Blue. I laughed out loud. Venus. Then came the news. "And now the news from KJIZ, brought to you by Dusty Trail Carburetors, the carburetor of the future. "There has been a bizarre new development in the Oral Jerry Swagger case. Early today the body of one of the television evangelists employees was found on the front lawn of Swaggers Pasadena mansion. According to police sources, the mans throat had been cut and he had been disemboweled with a butcher knife. "A church spokesman, attorney Randy Stader, suggested that Satanists were responsible for the killing." (The voice of Randy Stader.) "We regret immensely the tragic death of Mr. Craig Knowles, and extend our condolences to his friends and associates at this time of sorrow. Mr. Knowles was recently engaged in an important investigation concerning what appear to be a coterie of Satanists linked to the U.S. military, who were believed to be responsible for a wave of cattle and even human mutilations throughout the western part of the U.S. We can only speculate that members of this group took revenge on Mr. Knowles for getting too close to the truth." (The voice of the newsreader again.) "However, confidential police sources tell KJIZ that the Pasadena police are pursuing the possibility that Craig Knowles death was the result of a love triangle. These sources speculate that at the time of his death, Mr. Knowles was having a homosexual affair with the older Mr. Swagger, and that he may have been killed by a jealous lover. KJIZ has been shown photographs of what appear to be Mr. Swagger as a young man, engaged in sex with another unidentified man. These sources imply that Mr. Swagger has been a practicing homosexual for much of his life, and that the death of Mr. Knowles has to be considered in that light. While these sources say Mr. Swagger is not a suspect in the case, a note found in the shirt pocket of the deceased reads: "I cant live without your love." "In other news, Israeli police reported today that they have arrested a group of orthodox extremists who have been planning to blow up the Temple Mount. According to Israeli authorities, the group had hoped the incident would precipitate an apocalyptic war between Jews and Arabs, and hasten the coming of the Messiah . . ." I turned off the radio and drove in silence for a while. Much as I tried to suppress it, the news report on Oral Jerry Swagger was bothering me a lot. Finally, I could stand it no longer and stopped the car beside the road and opened the trunk. Killed by a butcher knife. I checked each compartment of the travel bag for the chefs knife. I couldnt find it anywhere. I had wrapped it in protective covering and put it in with the rest of my things back at the Hilton. Hadnt I? Well, it wasnt there now. I checked the passing traffic, and waited for an appropriate gap. Then I slipped the axe out of the trunk and tossed it out to the side of the road. I got back in the car and drove on. I entertained myself with some consoling

Josephson©1948 CHEDNEY PRESS 127 East 69th Street New York 21, N. Y. --[19]-- CHAPTER XIX ANTI-BRITISH OIL CONSPIRACY SUCCEEDS U. S. FIGHTS UNOFFICIAL WAR For the Rockefeller-Standard Oil Empire, a war that would forever break the hold of the antagonistic British Empire on vast oil reserves throughout the world, had become absolutely imperative. Mussolini's acquisition in their interest of the Harrar Province oil fields of Abyssinia, previously related, was a mere stopgap that could not supply all the Mediterranean market. By far the most important oil reserve from which the Rockefeller-Standard Oil Empire was being blocked by British opposition was Saudi Arabia. In 1914 just prior to World War I, Standard Oil Co. had loaned the Turkish Government thirty-five million dollars. After the war, in 1922 they obtained a concession in Anatolia, Turkey; in 1923, the Mosul concession involved the United States deeply in European and Near-Eastern affairs; and the Admiral Cheater grant that had been backed by Kuhn, Loch and Company precipitated a battle royal with the British interests. Development was begun in 1926. New oil leases were obtained by the Rockefeller interests in Arabia in 1936. But the British still blocked their effective development, despite the fact that the Rockefeller interests had penetrated into control of Royal Dutch and Shell. To break the impasse the oil interests turned to Germany. Sir Henry Deterding, Chairman of the Board of Royal Dutch, retired to Germany, married a Nazi girl almost forty years his junior, and on their wedding day gave a gift of ten millions to Hitler and the Nazi Party. Standard Oil acquired a 730,000 acre concession in Germany from the North European Oil Company and extended their holdings in the German Dye Trust (I. G. Farbenindustrie). Walter Teagle, President of the Standard Oil of New Jersey and Edsel Ford became Directors of the I. G. Farbenindustrie; and ivy Lee, Rockefeller's publicity man was retained by the I. G. at $25,000 a year to advise Hitler on Nazi German rearmament. Standard Oil of New Jersey supplied oil to Germany and finally turned over to the Nazis their refineries and accepted millions of harmonicas in payment. Texas Company's shrewd Captain Rieber made a sharper deal for his oil and received full payment in ships, eight of which were delivered before the war, and two after the war. But for that he was ousted with the outcry that he was trading with the enemy. The plan was to build Hitler up as a menace to England, and smash the British Empire if ne[c]cesary to gain control of its oil reserves and other resources. It materialized in World War II. It was not until Hitler arrived at Dunkirk, that the British awoke to a realization that if they did not knuckle down to the Rockefeller Empire, their own would be destroyed. The British made a deal with the Rockefeller-Standard Oil interests to permit a development of the Saudi Arabia field. This was predicated on effecting the entry of the United States into World War II; the United States Navy immediately beginning to convoy British vessels, and the costs of the war being unloaded on the American taxpayers. These were the terms. Never did Roosevelt follow the dictates of his masters with greater alacrity. His education in Germany, as a youngster, had imbued him with the spirit of Prussian militarism. His prime interest was warships and naval battles. In World War I, F.D.R had not been at the front as we're other young men of his age, experiencing the miseries of war. The Dynasty had protected him from that. His war experiences had been delightful and profitable. Franklin Delano Roosevelt yearned for a war of his own, bigger and brighter than ever, that would memorialize him and carry his name down through history. Peacetime Presidents generally are forgotten by history. On the day of his first inauguration, Roosevelt confided to intimate friends that he hoped to be a War President. He began rebuilding the war organization with which he had surrounded himself in World War I, immediately after his inauguration, making his wartime propagandists, McIntyre and Early, his secretaries. In 1938, after the defeat at the polls of his at. tempted purge, F.D.R. stated to his intimate as[s]ociates: "If I had a war, I could be reelected." Only war could cover up the crude conspiracy of the New Dealers, and save them from the resentment of the nation. The internal situation in the U.S., as has been related, demanded from the point of view of the Dynastic conspirators, war. A war emergency would justify a third term, would enable establishment of an absolute dictatorship, and would facilitate welding gigantic trusts and eliminating competition. All who opposed their conspiracy would be labelled traitors. To guard against any miscarriage of their

-Caveat Lector- an excerpt from: Mellon's Millions Harvey O'Conner©1933 Blue Ribbon Books New York, N.Y. --[Notes Apendices]-- NOTES I am particularly indebted to Basha DeWard for preparation of the financial tables in Appendices 6 and 7, and to Maurice Schneirov for assistance in examining records in the Allegheny County courthouse. Arthur G. McDowell, Martin Dillmon, Esther Lowell and Carl Haessler helped in preparing the chapter on labor. Many newspaper men in Pittsburgh and Washington have given me valuable sidelights on the Mellon fortune and history. Most of all I wish to acknowledge my gratitude to my wife, Jessie Lloyd, who helped in collecting material and in revising the manuscript. FOREWORD John T. Flynn in his Rockefeller biography entitled God's Cold, estimated the fortune of the Rockefellers, father and son, in 1932 at $150,000,000. The Ford Motor Company's net worth is recorded in a statement filed with the New Hampshire Secretary of State. CHAPTER 1 Chapter 1 is based mainly on Judge Mellon's autobiography, entitled Thomas Mellon and His Times, printed privately in Pittsburgh in 1886. The volume is rare. Old-time Pittsburghers like to describe the furore among the younger Mellons when their father's opus appeared. The old man had sent copies to his friends around town. Andy and Dick, according to the story, hitched up the mare and drove to every house where they suspected a copy might be found and collected as many of the precious books as they could demand or wheedle from their father's friends. Andrew Carnegie, on the opening page of his autobiography, pays tribute to that of judge Mellon in these words: "A book of this kind, written years ago by my friend, judge Mellon, of Pittsburgh, gave me so much pleasure that I am inclined to agree with the wise one whose opinion I have given above; for certainly, the story which the judge told has proved a source of infinite satisfaction to his friends, and must continue to influence succeeding generations of his family to live life well. And not only this; to some beyond his immediate circle it holds rank with their favorite authors. The book contains one essential feature of value it reveals the man." Allegheny County court records extending back into the 1830s have been consulted for material concerning the early growth of the Mellon fortune via the mortgage and judgment route. CHAPTER 2 Chapter 2 draws on Judge Mellon's autobiography and on J. R. Mellon: Letters, privately printed in 1928. This slender book, edited apparently in James Ross Mellon's nonage, throws a revealing light on Judge Mellon's careful training of his sons. The volume, with its references to insanity in the maternal line of the family and its intimate glimpses into the Mellon psychology, probably was greeted with as little enthusiasm by other members of the family as Judge Mellon's book. James Ross Mellon, although the second son of Judge Mellon, faded out of the picture about the time his father died. He was associated in the realty, lumber and bank business with his oldest brother, Thomas Alexander, who died in 1899. Held by some to be not so bright as his younger brothers, James Ross was regarded as less tightfisted. He was closely guarded in his later years to restrain his impulse to give away slices of his fortune. Perhaps the most memorable incident in the otherwise unruffled life of James Ross was the shipwreck of the S.S. Republic in 1909, in which for the first time radio was used to summon aid at sea. Mrs Mellon, more panicky over her lack of clothing than the sinking 'hip: rushed back to her cabin for a skirt while her husband stamped the deck, complaining that the life belt didn't fit and that he could not find his socks. They were finally located in his coat pocket. The shipwreck ended plans for a trip to Egypt. James Ross held tenaciously to his belief in prohibition long after the current had started against it. Speaking before the Theta Delta Chi assembly in 1933, he said: "The United States as a whole could get along without liquor and would have, but for the foreign element which introduced bootlegging and racketeering on a wholesale scale." He reproved John D. Rockefeller, Jr., for his attack on prohibition. For the foreclosure of James Kelly's estate, see Harry C. Gilchrist's History of Wilkinsburg, 1927, as well as Allegheny County court records. Early files of the Pittsburgh Banker and the Pittsburgh Legal Journal have been valuable for sidelights on early Mellon history. Files of Pittsburgh newspapers of the 1870s and 188os have been consulted for judge Mellon's service as Select Councilman. Judge Mellon's treatise on The Sunday Question was privately printed in Pittsburgh in 1883 The Pittsburgh riots in 1887 and other phases of early industrial history of the Iron City are described in Pittsburgh's Progress, Industries and Resources, by George H. Thurston, 1886, and also the same author's Allegheny County's Hundred Years, 1888.

In stock at: A-albionic Research, PO Box 20273, Ferndale, MI 48220-0273 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Lloyd Miller, Research Director) Om K - Preface The operational history of The Order can only be understood within a framework of the Hegelian dialectic process. Quite simply this is the notion that conflict creates history. From this axiom it follows that controlled conflict can create a predetermined history. For example: When the Trilateral Commission, discusses "managed conflict", as it does extensively in its literature, the Commission implies the managed use of conflict for long run predeter- mined ends - not for the mere random exercise of manipulative con- trol to solve a problem. The dialectic takes this Trilateral "managed conflict" process one step further. In Hegelian terms, an existing force (the thesis) generates a counterforce (the antithesis). Conflict between the two forces results in the forming of a synthesis. Then the process starts all over again: Thesis vs. antithesis results in synthesis. The synthesis sought by the Establishment is called the New World Order. Without controlled conflict this New World Order will not come about. Random individual actions of persons in society would not lead to this synthesis, it's artificial, therefore it has to be created. And this is being done with the calculated, managed, use of conflict. And all the while this synthesis is being sought, there is no profit in playing the involved parties against one another. This explains why the International bankers backed the Nazis, the Soviet Union, North Korea, North Viet- nam, ad nauseam, against the United States. The "conflict" built profits while pushing the world ever closer to One World Government. The process continues today. We apologize for the poor quality of some documents included in this volume. These are the best copies in existence today. In fact, it is a miracle they survived at all . . . For example, letters between Patriarch Amos Pinchot (Club D. 95) and Patriarch William Kent (Club D. 85) would almost certainly have been destroyed if a New York State Com- mission had not seized the documents as part of an investigation into subversion in the United States. However, even where contents cannot be clearly identified, the very existence of even a fragmentary text proves a vital point: There is a joint calculated effort among Patriarchs to bring about a specific objective. Furthermore, the diverse conflicting nature of these efforts, commented upon even in letters between Patriarchs, can only be explained in the terms of the Hegelian dialectic. In brief, the existence of these documents is just as important as the nature of the contents. It demonstrates joint planned actions, ergo: A Conspiracy! April 1984Antony C. Sutton Memorandum Number One: Created Conflict And The Dialectic Process 1. INTRODUCTION The first volume of this series (Introduction To The Order described in broad terms the nature and objectives of The Order. Our first hypothesis, that the U.S. was ruled by an elite, secret socie- ty, was supported by documentary evidence: such a secret society does exist, its membership is concealed, and disclosure of membership is not a voluntary effort. Further, since publication of the first volume, the Sterling Library at Yale University which has major holdings of their records has refused to allow researchers further access to Russell Trust papers (the legal name for The Order). We also argued in the first volume that the operations of The Order must be seen and explained in terms of the Hegelian dialectic proess. Their operations cannot be explained in terms of any other philosophy: therefore The Order cannot be described as "right" or "left," secular or religious, Marxist or Capitalist. The Order, and its objectives, is all of these and none of these. In Hegelian philosophy the conflict of political "right" and political "left," or thesis and antithesis in Hegelian terms, is essential to the forward movement of history and historical change itself. Conflict between thesis and antithesis brings about a synthesis, i.e., a new historical situation. Our descriptive world history in the West and Marxist countries con- sists only of description and analysis within a political framework of "right" or "left." For example, historical work published in the West looks at communism and socialism either through the eyes of financial capitalism or Marxism. Historical work published in the Soviet Union looks at the West only
