Historian and author Donald Sassoon, who was a close friend of the Rothschilds, wrote in his 2002 book One Hundred Years of Socialism that socialism was created by capital, not by the workers, in the midst of the workers’ struggle.
In the mid-nineteenth century, Karl Marx’s writings on the exploitation of the working class gained influence. One example was his analysis of surplus value—the excess value created by workers that enabled the capitalist class to become ever wealthier. Wages, the price of labor power, are never equal to the profit that labor creates. Workers simply work for their employers without pay for part of the day, and this is how surplus value arises, Marx explained.
Regardless of what one thought—or thinks—about Marx in general and communism in particular, there were undoubtedly valid points in several of his analyses, and the ruling class was not so foolish as to fail to recognize the danger this posed. As early as 1776, Adam Smith had written in Chapter 5 of Book I of The Wealth of Nations that ”the real price of everything is the toil and trouble of acquiring it.”
The elite’s way of dealing with the issue was to take control of the new movement by supporting and promoting intellectuals who were passionate about reforming society, while at the same time holding ideological beliefs that could be integrated with the notion that certain people were chosen to lead and ”refine” other people and cultures. In other words, the aim was to reduce injustices at home in order to keep the masses content, while simultaneously instilling in them the belief that, by virtue of their ethnicity, they had a duty to reshape more ”primitive” cultures.
The ruling elite in England therefore took elements of Karl Marx’s philosophy and combined them with Darwin’s theories, thereby creating Social Darwinism. The purpose was to pre-empt the potential threat posed by an increasingly awakened working class.
Later, figures such as Lenin, Stalin, and Mao would be sponsored and promoted. Their extreme versions of socialism, in the form of communist dictatorships, came to serve as a means of controlling the masses through two opposing systems that functioned as cautionary examples for each side, while also reinforcing the position of those in power and generating billions for the war industry.
The idea was to apply the Hegelian dialectic and create a counterweight to emerging capitalism. Between communism and capitalism—which constitute the thesis and antithesis—sits the elite, which constitutes the synthesis that controls both sides.
In other words, capitalism and communism are two sides of the same dirty coin: a dialectical monstrosity with the real power holders sitting in the middle like a calculating tumor.
Without batting an eye, they exploit poor countries, create conflicts and wars, poison the planet, and throw bread and circuses to the masses in the wealthier nations so that they contentedly park themselves in front of their television sets, which function as household hypnotists that further confuse and dull them.
The idea that we have all been deceived and manipulated for a long time by a ruthless elite seems completely improbable and downright ridiculous to most people. If you are born into a dysfunctional system and raised by people who have never seriously questioned or studied that system in any depth, such a reaction is perfectly natural. Most people are also fully occupied just trying to make ends meet and rarely have the energy to devote to the kind of intellectual effort that such questioning would require.
But for those of you who are not satisfied with being fed the nonsense that washes over us daily through the mainstream press, radio, and television, let us take a closer look at what this elite itself has said about how the world has been governed and how it should be governed.
With the following words, David Rockefeller opened the meeting of the Bilderberg Group—described here as the gathering of the world’s power holders—held in the German city of Baden-Baden from July 6–9, 1991:
”We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time magazine, and other distinguished publications whose directors have attended our meetings and maintained their discretion for nearly forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world had we been subjected to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march toward a World Government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national self-determination practiced in past centuries.”
Here is a quotation from Congressman Larry P. McDonald, who later died in a plane crash:
”The direction in which the Rockefellers and their allies are moving is toward the creation of a World Government combining super-capitalism and communism under the same tent, all under their control. Do I mean that this is a conspiracy? Yes, I do! I am convinced that it is a plot of worldwide scope, planned over generations, with incredibly evil intentions as its ultimate objective.”
Former Secretary of State under President Clinton, Strobe Talbott, said the following in an interview with Time magazine:
”In the next century, nation-states as we know them will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single, global authority.”
Brock Adams, described here as head of a UN aid organization, expressed it this way:
”In order for us to achieve a world government, it is necessary to eliminate individual thinking, loyalty to family, nationalism, and religious beliefs.”
Zbigniew Brzezinski, a Polish-American political scientist, geostrategist, statesman, member of three of the world’s most powerful organizations—the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, and the Bilderberg Group—and adviser to Presidents Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and Bush Jr., stated the following:
”The technetronic era involves the gradual emergence of an increasingly controlled society. Such a society will be dominated by an elite unrestrained by traditional values such as freedom. Soon it will be possible to maintain almost continuous surveillance of every citizen and to keep up-to-date files containing even the most personal information about the individual.”
Dr. Johannes B. Koeppl, a former German defense and NATO official, stated in a 1984 interview with F.I.M. that Brzezinski and the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) had written a book on war planning that served as a blueprint for a world dictatorship.
The neoconservative organization PNAC (Project for the New American Century), which advocates for global American dominance and whose members included, among others, Brzezinski, Vice President Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Jeb Bush, and Paul Wolfowitz, stated explicitly in a document in the late 1990s that the United States needed to gain control of the Middle East, beginning with Afghanistan, followed by Iraq, and then Iran.
In Chapter Five of their report Rebuilding America’s Defenses, entitled ”Creating Tomorrow’s Dominant Force,” they wrote:
”The process is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event—like a new Pearl Harbor.”
And lo and behold, as if by pure coincidence, the United States—the world’s only superpower, with a highly advanced intelligence apparatus and a hyper-modern defense system—was caught completely off guard by a group of Arabs who flew Boeing airliners with perfect precision into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, often described as one of the most heavily protected buildings in the world. This was despite the fact that they had trained only on small aircraft, were described by their flight instructors as mediocre pilots, and several of them had reportedly spent the previous evening drinking in strip clubs, despite being devout Muslims. It may also be added that, according to the Quran, suicide is forbidden for a true Muslim.
Since September 11, 2001, the United States has established bases at the gateways to all major fossil fuel resources, particularly in Central Asia.
In the Los Angeles Times, military analyst William Arkin described a secret U.S. force intended to coordinate ”the CIA with covert military operations, information warfare, and deception activities.” According to a classified document, the new organization—known by its Orwellian name, the Proactive, Preemptive Operations Group (P2OG)—would provoke terrorist attacks that would then require U.S. ”counterattacks” against countries ”harboring the terrorists.”
This quotation from one of history’s most influential men, Henry Kissinger, says it all:
”Military men are just dumb, stupid animals to be used as tools in foreign policy.”
Professor and historian Antony Sutton wrote the following words shortly before his death:
”I see chaos and confusion, and ultimately a struggle between the individual and the State. The individual is the stronger of the two and will therefore prevail.
The State is a fiction, a creation proclaimed by Hegel and his followers. It was created as a tool to control the individual. Sooner or later, the people will wake up! But first, they must free themselves from the noose of what we call the Left and the Right, this trap that was created by Hegel to divide and control the masses.
The struggle is not between the Right and the Left at all; the struggle is between us and those who sit at the very top of the pyramid.”
”What can I do myself? Find yourself, and then take action.”
”Tell your friends, spread the message. The answers exist only within yourself.”
