Rebels, Mercenaries, and Dividends, 1962</p>
|
|
<p>Early in 1987, millions of American television viewers tuned in to
|
|
watch the dramatic ABC mini-series, AMERIKA. What they saw was a grim,
|
|
menacing portrayal of life in our nation after it had been taken over
|
|
by a Soviet-controlled United Nations force. Their TV sets showed a
|
|
foreboding picture of America as an occupied police-state, complete
|
|
with concentration camps, brainwashing, neighborhood spies, and
|
|
Soviet-UN troops, tanks and helicopter gunships enforcing "the rule of
|
|
law."</p>
|
|
<p>Liberals angrily denounced the mini-series, claiming it demonized both
|
|
the Soviets and the UN and insisting that it would rekindle
|
|
anti-communist hysteria at a time when Soviet-American relations were
|
|
at their best point since the end of World War II. The fact that
|
|
Soviet troops were at that very time committing real atrocities
|
|
against the peoples of Afghanistan didn't matter. UN officials,
|
|
furious about the way their organization was being portrayed, even
|
|
tried to have the program cancelled.(2)</p>
|
|
<p>Why all the furor? Is the UN's image so sacrosanct or the goal of
|
|
US-Soviet rapprochement so sacred that even fictional tarnishing is
|
|
akin to blasphemy? After all, it was just a television program.
|
|
Haven't there been scores of highly acclaimed Hollywood productions
|
|
depicting the U.S. military and American patriots in similarly bad or
|
|
even far worse light? Besides, the totalitarianism depicted in AMERIKA
|
|
could never happen here. Could it?</p>
|
|
<p>Dress Rehearsal?</p>
|
|
<p>You may be surprised to learn that it HAS ALREADY HAPPENED HERE. NO,
|
|
not in the same manner and on the same scale as viewers saw in the
|
|
television series, but in an alarming real-life parallel of that
|
|
dramatic production What follows is the true, but little-known story
|
|
of the "invasion" of about a dozen American cities by "UN forces," as
|
|
told by economist/author Dr. V. Orval Watts in his 1955 book, THE
|
|
UNITED NATIONS: PLANNED TYRANNY.</p>
|
|
<p>At Fort MacArthur, California, and in other centers,
|
|
considerable numbers of American military forces went
|
|
into training in 1951 as "Military Government Reserve
|
|
Units." What they were for may appear from their practice
|
|
maneuvers during the two years, 1951-1952.</p>
|
|
<p>Their first sally took place on July 31, 1951, when they
|
|
simulated an invasion and seizure of nine California cities:
|
|
Compton, Culver City, Inglewood, Hawthorne, Huntington
|
|
Park, Long Beach, Redondo Beach, South Gate and
|
|
Torrance. The invading forces, however, did not fly the
|
|
American flag. They came in under the flag of the United
|
|
Nations, and their officers stated that they represented the
|
|
United Nations.</p>
|
|
<p>These forces arrested the mayors and police chiefs, and
|
|
pictures later appeared in the newspapers showing these
|
|
men in jail. The officers issued manifestoes reading "by
|
|
virtue of the authority vested in me by the United Nations
|
|
Security Council." At Huntington Park they held a flag-raising ceremony, taking down the American flag and
|
|
running up in its place the United Nations banner.</p>
|
|
<p>On April 31952, other units did the same thing at
|
|
Lampasas, Texas. They took over the town, closed
|
|
churches, strutted their authority over the teachers and
|
|
posted guards in classrooms, set up concentration camps,
|
|
and interned businessmen after holding brief one-sided
|
|
trials without HABEAS CORPUS.</p>
|
|
<p>Said a newspaper report of that Texas invasion: "But the
|
|
staged action almost became actual drama when one
|
|
student and two troopers forgot it was only make-believe.
|
|
'Ain't nobody going to make me get up,' cried John Snell,
|
|
17, his face beet-red. One of the paratroopers shoved the
|
|
butt of his rifle within inches of Snell's face and snarled,
|
|
'You want this butt placed in your teeth? Get up.'"</p>
|
|
<p>The invaders put up posters listing many offenses for which
|
|
citizens would be punished. One of them read:"25. Publishing
|
|
or circulating or having in his possession with intent to publish
|
|
or circulate, any printed or written matter ... hostile,
|
|
detrimental, or disrespectful ... to the Government of any other
|
|
of the United Nations."</p>
|
|
<p>Think back to the freedom-of-speech clause of the United
|
|
States Constitution which every American officer and
|
|
official is sworn to support and defend. What was in the
|
|
minds of those who prepared, approved and posted these
|
|
UN proclamations?</p>
|
|
<p>The third practice seizure under the United Nations flag
|
|
occurred at Watertown, New York, August 20, 1952, more
|
|
than a year later than the first ones. It followed the same
|
|
pattern set in the earlier seizures in California and Texas.</p>
|
|
<p>Is this a foretaste of World Government, which so many
|
|
Americans seem to want?(3)</p>
|
|
<p>Who ordered these "mock" UN invasions? And to what purpose were they
|
|
carried out? Do answers to these questions really matter? Or are these
|
|
merely idle concerns about curious but irrelevant events that happened
|
|
decades ago and have no bearing on our lives today? Events,
|
|
developments, and official policies in the succeeding years, under
|
|
both Republican and Democratic administrations, indicate that the mock
|
|
invasions of the early 1950s do matter and that they do have a bearing
|
|
on our lives today. The dress-rehearsal takeovers of American cities
|
|
described above occurred just six years after the founding of the
|
|
United Nations, while the organization was still enjoying widespread
|
|
public support. American military personnel were at that very time
|
|
fighting and dying under the UN flag in Korea. But as recounted in our
|
|
previous chapter, a decade later in September of 1961, the President
|
|
of the United States would propose a phased transfer of America's
|
|
military forces to the UN. Under such a plan, our Army, Navy, Air
|
|
Force, Marine Corps, even our nuclear arsenal, would be given over to
|
|
UN command, making it possible for our nation's military forces to be
|
|
used in a REAL U.N. invasion at some future date anywhere in the
|
|
world.</p>
|
|
<p>Interestingly, the Kennedy FREEDOM FROM WAR plan differed little from
|
|
one proposed earlier that same month by the Soviet-dominated
|
|
"nonaligned" nations at a conference held in Belgrade, Yugoslavia.(4)
|
|
And it was merely an expansion of the policy enunciated by Secretary
|
|
of State Christian Herter (CFR) during the latter days of the
|
|
Eisenhower Administration. But few Americans even saw, and fewer still
|
|
ever read and understood the incredible disarmament document. For
|
|
those who did see, read and understand it, however, there could be no
|
|
doubt that it created a path leading to global dictatorship.</p>
|
|
<p>If the American public had been aware of FREEDOM FROM WAR
|
|
and a number of then-classified government studies being prepared at
|
|
that time -- each of which spelled out even more explicitly the intent
|
|
of government and Establishment elitists to surrender America to an
|
|
all-powerful United Nations -- there may well have been a popular
|
|
uprising that would have swept all of the internationalist schemers
|
|
from public office and public trust.</p>
|
|
<p>In February 1961, seven months before the President released the
|
|
FREEDOM FROM WAR plan to the public, his State Department, led by
|
|
Secretary of State Dean Rusk (CFR), hired the private Institute for
|
|
Defense Analyses (contract No. SCC 28270) to prepare a study showing
|
|
how disarmament could be employed to lead to world government. On
|
|
March 10, 1962, the Institute delivered Study Memorandum No. 7, A
|
|
WORLD EFFECTIVELY CONTROLLED BY THE UNITED NATIONS,
|
|
written by Lincoln P. Bloomfield (CFR).(5) Dr. Bloomfield had himself
|
|
recently served with the State Department's disarmament staff, and
|
|
while writing his important work was serving as an associate professor
|
|
of political science and director of the Arms Control Project at the
|
|
Center for International Studies, Massachusetts Institute of
|
|
Technology.</p>
|
|
<p>This Bloomfield/IDA report is especially significant because the
|
|
author is uncharacteristically candid, eschewing the usual euphemisms,
|
|
code words, and double-talk found in typical "world order"
|
|
pronouncements meant for public consumption. The author believed he
|
|
was addressing fellow internationalists in a classified memorandum
|
|
that would never be made available for public scrutiny. So he felt he
|
|
could speak plainly.</p>
|
|
<p>Here is the document's opening passage, labeled SUMMARY:</p>
|
|
<p>A world effectively controlled by the United Nations is one
|
|
in which "world government" would come about through
|
|
the establishment of supranational institutions,
|
|
characterized by mandatory universal membership and
|
|
some ability to employ physical force. Effective control
|
|
would thus entail a preponderance of political power in the
|
|
hands of a supranational organization... [T]he present UN
|
|
Charter could theoretically be revised in order to erect such
|
|
an organization equal to the task envisaged, thereby
|
|
codifying a radical rearrangement of power in the world.</p>
|
|
<p>Dr. Bloomfield was still fudging a little as he began. The phrase
|
|
"some ability to employ physical force" was more than a slight
|
|
understatement, as the bulk of the report makes abundantly clear. He
|
|
continued:</p>
|
|
<p>The principal features of a model system would include the
|
|
following: (1) powers sufficient to monitor and enforce
|
|
disarmament, settle disputes, and keep the peace --
|
|
including taxing powers -- with all other powers reserved to
|
|
the nations; (2) an international force, balanced
|
|
appropriately among ground, sea, air, and space elements,
|
|
consisting of 500000 men, recruited individually, wearing
|
|
a UN uniform, and controlling a nuclear force composed of
|
|
60-100 mixed land-based mobile and undersea-based
|
|
missiles, averaging one megaton per weapon; (3)
|
|
governmental powers distributed among three branches...;
|
|
(4) compulsory jurisdiction of the International Court...(6)</p>
|
|
<p>"The notion of a 'UN-controlled world' is today a fantastic one," the
|
|
professor wrote. "... Political scientists have generally come to
|
|
despair of quantum jumps to world order as utopian and unmindful of
|
|
political realities. But fresh minds from military, scientific, and
|
|
industrial life ... have sometimes found the logic of world government
|
|
-- and it is world government we are discussing here --
|
|
inescapable."(7)</p>
|
|
<p>Dr. Bloomfield then cited Christian Herter's speech of February 18,
|
|
1960, in which the Secretary of State called for disarmament "to the
|
|
point where no single nation or group of nations could effectively
|
|
oppose this enforcement of international law by international
|
|
machinery."(8) To this CFR-affiliated academic, who had recently
|
|
worked for the disarmament agency where Herter's speech had most
|
|
likely been written, there was no question about the meaning of the
|
|
Secretary of State's words.</p>
|
|
<p>"Here, then," said Bloomfield, "is the basis in recent American policy
|
|
for the notion of a world 'effectively controlled by the United
|
|
Nations.' It was not made explicit, but the United States position
|
|
carried the unmistakable meaning, by whatever name, of world
|
|
government, sufficiently powerful in any event to keep the peace and
|
|
enforce its judgments."9</p>
|
|
<p>Then, to be absolutely certain that there would be no confusion or
|
|
misunderstanding about his meaning, he carefully defined his terms:</p>
|
|
<p>"World" means that the system is global, with no
|
|
exceptions to its fiat: universal membership. "Effectively
|
|
controlled" connotes ... a relative monopoly of physical
|
|
force at the center of the system, and thus a preponderance
|
|
of political power in the hands of a supranational
|
|
organization..."
|
|
"The United Nations" is not necessarily precisely the
|
|
organization as it now exists... FINALLY, TO AVOID
|
|
ENDLESS EUPHEMISM AND EVASIVE VERBAGE, THE
|
|
CONTEMPLATED REGIME WILL OCCASIONALLY BE
|
|
REFERRED TO UNBLUSHINGLY AS A "WORLD
|
|
GOVERNMENT." (10) [Emphasis added]</p>
|
|
<p>If government is "force" -- as George Washington so simply and
|
|
accurately defined it -- then world government is "world force." Which
|
|
means that Bloomfield and those who commissioned his report and agreed
|
|
with its overall recommendations wanted to create a global entity with
|
|
a monopoly of force -- a political, even military power undisputedly
|
|
superior to any single nation-state or any possible alliance of
|
|
national or regional forces. It is as simple as that.</p>
|
|
<p>"The appropriate degree of relative force," the Bloomfield/IDA study
|
|
concluded, "would ... involve total disarmament down to police and
|
|
internal security levels for the constituent units, as against a
|
|
significant conventional capability at the center backed by a
|
|
marginally significant nuclear capability."(11) Again and again as the
|
|
following excerpts demonstrate, the study drives its essential points
|
|
home:</p>
|
|
<p>* "National disarmament is a condition SINE QUA NON
|
|
for effective UN control... [W]ithout it, effective UN control
|
|
is not possible."(12)</p>
|
|
<p>* "The essential point is the transfer of the most vital
|
|
element of sovereign power from the states to a
|
|
supranational government."(13)</p>
|
|
<p>* "The overwhelming central fact would still be the loss of
|
|
control of their military power by individual nations."(14)</p>
|
|
<p>Putting Theory Into Practice</p>
|
|
<p>While Dr. Bloomfield was still writing his treatise for global rule,
|
|
the hapless residents of a small corner of Africa were experiencing
|
|
the terrible reality of "a world effectively controlled by the United
|
|
Nations." The site chosen for the debut of the UN's version of "
|
|
peacekeeping" was Katanga, a province in what was then known as the
|
|
Belgian Congo. The center of world attention 30 years ago, the name
|
|
Katanga draws a complete blank from most people today.</p>
|
|
<p>Katanga and its tragic experience have been expunged from history,
|
|
consigned to the memory hole. The region appears on today's maps as
|
|
the Province of Shaba in Zaire. But for one brief, shining moment, the
|
|
courageous people in this infant nation stood as the singular
|
|
testament to the capability of the newly independent Africans to
|
|
govern themselves as free people with a sense of peace, order, and
|
|
justice.</p>
|
|
<p>While all around them swirled a maelstrom of violent, communist
|
|
inspired revolution and bloody tribal warfare, the Katangese
|
|
distinguished themselves as a paradigm of racial, tribal, and class
|
|
harmony.(15) What they stood for could not be tolerated by the forces
|
|
of "anti-colonialism" in the Kremlin, the U.S. State Department, the
|
|
Western news media, and especially the United Nations.(16)</p>
|
|
<p>The stage was already set for the horrible drama that would soon
|
|
unfold when Belgium's King Baudouin announced independence for the
|
|
Belgian Congo on June 301960. The Soviets, who had been agitating and
|
|
organizing in the Congo for years, were ready. Patrice Lumumba was
|
|
their man, bought and paid for with cash, arms, luxuries, and all the
|
|
women, gin, and hashish he wanted. With his Soviet and Czech
|
|
"diplomats" and "technicians" who swarmed all over the Congo, Lumumba
|
|
was able to control the Congo elections.(17)</p>
|
|
<p>With Lumumba as premier and Joseph Kasavubu as president, peaceful
|
|
independence lasted one week. Then Lumumba unleashed a communist reign
|
|
of terror against the populace, murdering and torturing men, women,
|
|
and children. Amidst this sea of carnage and terror, the province of
|
|
Katanga remained, by comparison, an island of peace, order, and
|
|
stability. Under the able leadership of the courageous Moise Kapenda
|
|
Tshombe, Katanga declared its independence from the central Congolese
|
|
regime. "I am seceding from chaos," declared President Tshombe, a
|
|
devout Christian and an ardent anti-communist.(18)</p>
|
|
<p>These were the days when the whole world witnessed the cry and the
|
|
reality of "self determination" as it swept through the African
|
|
continent. Anyone should have expected that Katanga's declaration of
|
|
independence would have been greeted with the same huzzahs at the UN
|
|
and elsewhere that similar declarations from dozens of communist
|
|
revolutionary movements and pip-squeak dictatorships had evoked.</p>
|
|
<p>But it was Tshombe's misfortune to be pro-Western, pro-free
|
|
enterprise, and pro-constitutionally limited government at a time when
|
|
the governments of both the U.S. and the USSR were supporting Marxist
|
|
"liberators" throughout the world. Nikita Khrushchev declared Tshombe
|
|
to be "a turncoat, a traitor to the interests of the Congolese
|
|
people."(19) American liberals and the rabble at the UN dutifully
|
|
echoed the hue and cry.</p>
|
|
<p>To our nation's everlasting shame, on July 14, 1960, the U.S. joined
|
|
with the USSR in support of a UN resolution authorizing the world body
|
|
to send troops to the Congo.(20) These troops were used, NOT to stop
|
|
the bloody reign of terror being visited on the rest of the Congo, but
|
|
to assist Lumumba, the chief terrorist, in his efforts to subjugate
|
|
Katanga. Within four days of the passage of that resolution, thousands
|
|
of UN troops were flown on U.S. transports into the Congo, where they
|
|
joined in the campaign against the only island of sanity in all of
|
|
black Africa.</p>
|
|
<p>Smith Hempstone, African correspondent for the Chicago Daily News,
|
|
gave this firsthand account of the December 1961 UN attack on
|
|
Elisabethville, the capital of Katanga:</p>
|
|
<p>The U.N. jets next turned their attention to the center of the
|
|
city. Screaming in at treetop level ... they blasted the post
|
|
office and the radio station, severing Katanga's
|
|
communications with the outside world... One came to the
|
|
conclusion that the U.N.'s action was intended to make it
|
|
more difficult for correspondents to let the world know
|
|
what was going on in Katanga...</p>
|
|
<p>A car pulled up in front of the Grand Hotel Leopold II
|
|
where all of us were staying. "Look at the work of the
|
|
American criminals," sobbed the Belgian driver. "Take a
|
|
picture and send it to Kennedy!" In the backseat, his eyes
|
|
glazed with shock, sat a wounded African man cradling in
|
|
his arms the body of his ten-year-old son. The child's face
|
|
and belly had been smashed to jelly by mortar
|
|
fragments.(21)</p>
|
|
<p>The 46 doctors of Elisabethville -- Belgian, Swiss, Hungarian,
|
|
Brazilian, and Spanish -- unanimously issued a joint report indicting
|
|
the United Nations atrocities against innocent civilians. This is part
|
|
of their account of a UN attack on a hospital:</p>
|
|
<p>The Shinkolobwe hospital is visibly marked with an
|
|
enormous red cross on the roof... In the maternity, roof,
|
|
ceilings, walls, beds, tables and chairs are riddled with
|
|
bullets... 4 Katangan women who had just been delivered
|
|
and one new-born child are wounded, a visiting child of 4
|
|
years old is killed; two men and one child are killed...(22)</p>
|
|
<p>The UN atrocities escalated. Unfortunately, we do not have space here
|
|
to devote to relating more of the details of this incredibly vicious
|
|
chapter of UN history -- even though the progress toward establishing
|
|
a permanent UN army makes full knowledge of every part of it more
|
|
vital than ever. Among the considerable body of additional testimony
|
|
about the atrocities, we highly recommend THE FEARFUL MASTER by G.
|
|
Edward Griffin; WHO KILLED THE CONGO? by Philippa Schuyler; REBELS,
|
|
MERCENARIES, AND DIVIDENDS by Smith Hempstone; and 46 Angry Men by the
|
|
46 doctors of Elisabethville.</p>
|
|
<p>In 1962, a private group of Americans, outraged at our government's
|
|
actions against the freedom-seeking Katangese, attempted to capture on
|
|
film the truth about what was happening in the Congo. They produced
|
|
KATANGA: THE UNTOLD STORY, an hour-long documentary narrated by
|
|
Congressman Donald L. Jackson. With newsreel footage and testimony
|
|
from eyewitnesses, including a compelling interview with Tshombe
|
|
himself, the program exposed the criminal activities and brutal
|
|
betrayal perpetrated on a peaceful people by the Kennedy
|
|
Administration, other Western leaders, and top UN officials. It
|
|
documents the fact that UN (including U.S.) planes deliberately bombed
|
|
Katanga's schools, hospitals, and churches, while UN troops
|
|
machine-gunned and bayoneted civilians, school children, and Red Cross
|
|
workers who tried to help the wounded. This film is now available on
|
|
videotape,(23) and is "must-viewing" for Americans who are determined
|
|
that this land or any other land shall never experience similar UN
|
|
atrocities.</p>
|
|
<p>After waging three major offensive campaigns against the fledgling
|
|
state, the UN "peace" forces overwhelmed Katanga and forced it back
|
|
under communist rule. Even though numerous international observers
|
|
witnessed and publicly protested the many atrocities committed by the
|
|
UN'S forces, the world body has never apologized for or admitted to
|
|
its wrongdoing. In fact, the UN and its internationalist cheering
|
|
section continue to refer to this shameful episode as a resounding
|
|
success.(24) Which indeed it was, if one keeps in mind the true goal
|
|
of the organization.</p>
|
|
<p>Following the Policy Line</p>
|
|
<p>Why did the government of the United States side with the Soviet Union
|
|
and the United Nations in their support of communists Lumumba and
|
|
Kasavubu and their denunciation of Tshombe? Why did our nation supply
|
|
military assistance to and an official endorsement of the UN's
|
|
military action against Katanga? The answer to both questions is that
|
|
our government was guided by the same "world order" policy line laid
|
|
out by the New York Times in its hard-to-believe editorial of August
|
|
16, 1961:</p>
|
|
<p>[W]e must seek to discourage anti-Communist revolts in
|
|
order to avert bloodshed and war. We must, under our own
|
|
principles, live with evil even if by doing so we help to
|
|
stabilize tottering Communist regimes, as in East Germany,
|
|
and perhaps even expose citadel of freedom, like West
|
|
Berlin, to slow death by strangulation.(25)</p>
|
|
<p>Further elaboration on this theme is revealed in a 1963 study
|
|
conducted for the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency by
|
|
the Peace Research Institute. Published in April of that year, here's
|
|
what our tax dollars produced:</p>
|
|
<p>Whether we admit it to ourselves or not, we benefit
|
|
enormously from the capability of the Soviet police system
|
|
to keep law and order over the 200 million odd Russians
|
|
and the many additional millions in the satellite states. The
|
|
break-up of the Russian Communist empire today would
|
|
doubtless be conducive to freedom, but would be a good
|
|
deal more catastrophic for world order...(26)</p>
|
|
<p>"We benefit enormously?" Who is this "we"? Certainly not the American
|
|
taxpayer, who carried the tax burden for the enormous military
|
|
expenditures needed to "contain" Soviet expansionism.</p>
|
|
<p>And who determined that freedom must be sacrificed in the name of
|
|
"world order"?</p>
|
|
<p>Dr. Bloomfield, in the same classified IDA study cited earlier, again

|
let the world-government cat out of the bag. If the communists
|
|
remained too militant and threatening, he observed, "the subordination
|
|
of states to a true world government appears impossible; BUT IF THE
|
|
COMMUNIST DYNAMIC WERE GREATLY ABATED, THE WEST MIGHT WELL LOSE
|
|
WHATEVER INCENTIVE IT HAS FOR WORLD GOVERNMENT." (27) ( Emphasis
|
|
added)</p>
|
|
<p>In other words, the world order Insiders were faced with the following
|
|
conundrum: How do we make the Soviets menacing enough to convince
|
|
Americans that world government is the only answer because
|
|
confrontation is untenable; but, at the same time, not make the
|
|
Soviets so menacing that Americans would decide to fight rather than
|
|
become subject to communist tyrants?</p>
|
|
<p>Are we unfairly stretching these admissions? Not at all. Keep in mind
|
|
that from the end of World War II, up to the very time these
|
|
statements were being written, the communists had brutally added
|
|
Albania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Poland, Romania, Czechoslovakia, North
|
|
Korea, Hungary, East Germany, China, Tibet, North Vietnam, and Cuba to
|
|
their satellite empire and were aggressively instigating revolutions
|
|
throughout Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.</p>
|
|
<p>And, as was later demonstrated by the historical research of Dr.
|
|
Antony Sutton and other scholars, all of these Soviet conquests had
|
|
been immeasurably helped by massive and continuous transfusions from
|
|
the West to the Kremlin of money, credit, technology, and scientific
|
|
knowledge(28) It was arranged for and provided by the same
|
|
CFR-affiliated policy elitists who recognized in the "communist
|
|
dynamic" they created an "incentive" for the people in the West to
|
|
accept "world government."</p>
|
|
<p>Project Phoenix</p>
|
|
<p>The U.S. Departments of State and Defense funded numerous other
|
|
studies about US-USSR convergence and world order under UN control. In
|
|
1964, the surfacing of the Project Phoenix reports generated
|
|
sufficient constituent concern to prompt several members of Congress
|
|
to protest the funding of such studies.(29) But there was not enough
|
|
pressure to force Congress to launch full investigations that could
|
|
have led to putting an end to taxpayer funding of these serious
|
|
attacks on American security and our constitutional system of
|
|
government.</p>
|
|
<p>Produced by the Institute for Defense Analyses for the U.S. Arms
|
|
Control and Disarmament Agency, the Phoenix studies openly advocated
|
|
"unification" of the U.S. and USSR.(30) The following passages taken
|
|
from Study Phoenix Paper dated June 4, 1963 leaves no doubt about this
|
|
goal:</p>
|
|
<p>Unification -- ... At present the approach ... may appear so
|
|
radical that it will be dismissed out of hand; nevertheless,
|
|
its logical simplicity... is so compelling that it seems to
|
|
warrant more systematic investigation...</p>
|
|
<p>Today, the United States and the Soviet Union combined
|
|
have for all practical purposes a near monopoly of force in
|
|
the world. If the use and direction of this power could
|
|
somehow be synchronized, stability and, indeed even unity
|
|
might be within reach.(31)</p>
|
|
<p>The Phoenix studies, like many other government reports before and
|
|
after, urged increased U.S. economic, scientific, and agricultural
|
|
assistance to the Soviet Union. These recommendations are totally
|
|
consistent with the long-range "merger" plans admitted to a decade
|
|
before by Ford Foundation President Rowan Gaither. And both Republican
|
|
and Democratic administrations have followed the same overall policy
|
|
ever since. But world order think-tank specialists like Bloomfield
|
|
realized that the incremental progress made through these programs was
|
|
too slow. He even lamented that reaching the final goal "could take up
|
|
to two hundred years."(32)</p>
|
|
<p>Bloomfield then noted that there was "an alternate road" to merger and
|
|
eventual world government, one that "relies on a grave crisis or war
|
|
to bring about a sudden transformation in national attitudes
|
|
sufficient for the purpose."(33) The taxpayer-funded academic
|
|
explained that "the order we examine may be brought into existence as
|
|
a result of a series of sudden, nasty, and traumatic shocks."(34)</p>
|
|
<p>Incredible? Impossible? Couldn't happen here? Many Americans thought
|
|
so 30 years ago -- before "perestroika," the Persian Gulf War,
|
|
propaganda about global warming, and other highly publicized
|
|
developments. But by the fall of 1990, Newsweek magazine would be
|
|
reporting on the emerging reality of "Superpowers as Superpartners"
|
|
and "a new order... the United States and the Soviet Union, united for
|
|
crisis management around the globe."(35) [Emphasis added]</p>
|
|
<p>In a seeming tipping of his hat to Bloomfield, President Bush would
|
|
state in his official August 1991 report, NATIONAL SECURITY STRATEGY
|
|
OF THE UNITED STATES: "I hope history will record that the Gulf crisis
|
|
was the crucible of the new world order."(36)</p>
|
|
<p>The CFR's house academics were already beating the convergence drums.
|
|
Writing in the Winter 1990 issue of Foreign Policy ( published by the
|
|
Carnegie Endowment for International Peace), Thomas G. Weiss (CFR) and
|
|
Meryl A. Kessler exhorted: "If Washington is to seize the full
|
|
potential of this opportunity, it will have to ... begin to treat the
|
|
Soviet Union as a real partner."</p>
|
|
<p>The long-planned partnership began to take form officially with the
|
|
signing of "A Charter for American-Russian Partnership and Friendship"
|
|
by Presidents Bush and Yeltsin on June 17, 1992.</p>
|
|
<p>Among the many commitments for joint action in this agreement, we find
|
|
the following:</p>
|
|
<p>* "... Summit meetings will be held on a regular basis";</p>
|
|
<p>* "The United States of America and the Russian
|
|
Federation recognize the importance of the United
|
|
Nations Security Council" and support "the strengthening
|
|
of UN peace-keeping";</p>
|
|
<p>* The parties are determined "to cooperate in the
|
|
development of ballistic missile defense capabilities and
|
|
technologies," and work toward creation of a joint "Ballistic
|
|
Missile Early Warning Center";</p>
|
|
<p>* "In view of the potential for building a strategic
|
|
partnership between the United States of America and the
|
|
Russian Federation the parties intend to accelerate defense
|
|
cooperation between their military establishments ..."; and</p>
|
|
<p>* "The parties will also pursue cooperation in
|
|
peacekeeping counter-terrorism, and counter-narcotics
|
|
missions."(37)</p>
|
|
<p>Before this charter had even been signed, however, our new " partners"
|
|
were already landing their bombers on American soil. AIRMAN, a
|
|
magazine for the U.S. Air Force, reported in large headlines for the
|
|
cover story of its July 1992 issue: "The Russians Have Landed." The
|
|
cover also featured a photo of the two Russian Tu-95 Bear bombers and
|
|
an An-124 transport which had landed on May 9th at Barksdale Air Force
|
|
Base in Louisiana. An accompanying article noted that the Russians
|
|
were given "a rousing salute from a brass band and a thrilled
|
|
gathering of Air Force people and civilians who waved U.S. and
|
|
Commonwealth of Independent States flags."</p>
|
|
<p>The long-standing plan of the Insiders calls for a merger of the U.S.
|
|
and the USSR (or Commonwealth of Independent States as it has become)
|
|
and then world government under the United Nations (see Chapter 5).
|
|
Details leading to completion of the plan are unfolding week after
|
|
week, month after month, before an almost totally unaware America.
