Within the ordinary institutions of Washington government—systematically so since around the mid-1970’s when George Herbert Walker Bush became head of CIA—the Constitutional safeguards to protect genuine representative democracy in America were subverted. In the manner of a clever nurse who could change a hospital bed without disturbing the sleeping patient, Bush, backed by a network of unimaginably ugly, criminal, loveless rich people began a silent coup d’etat.
Many persons played varying roles in that coup d’etat against constitutional government, the subversion of the American Constitution’s Bill of Rights. Among them were names such as Rockefeller, Rothschild, Gates, Buffett, Pritzker or DuPont, who stood behind the institutional subversion that Bush fostered with his network of secret CIA operatives.
Their blueprint was sketched out in a book written in 1973 by John D. Rockefeller III titled The Second American Revolution. In the book, buried in the dullest prose imaginable, was an astonishing call to overturn the fundamentals of American government. Over the ensuing four decades all major features of the Rockefeller “second American revolution” were to be implemented.
John D. Rockefeller III, who was responsible for the various eugenics projects of the family such as the Population Council, called for large-scale privatization of government activities and massive deregulation of the private sector to remove government rules and restraints, laws built up over decades of experience of banking abuses during the Depression, or health and safety laws to force industry to respect human health and the environment.
That deregulation had the effect of lowering the health, the wages and the well-being of the general population to the gain of the few large multinational corporations such as the Rockefeller family’s oil companies, agribusiness, pharmaceutical and military industries. The wealth gap between the top 10 percent and the remaining 90 percent of Americans began to widen dramatically over those four decades. By 2013 the median wealth of the nation’s upper-income families was nearly seven times the median wealth of middle-income families, the widest wealth gap in 30 years when the Federal Reserve began collecting such data.
Jimmy Carter, David Rockefeller’s Trilateral Commission President, began large-scale implementation of the privatization and deregulation agenda in 1977 that was to transform America. Step-by-step the United States was transformed from a semblance of a democratic Republic into an oligarchy controlled by a small gang of very rich, unspeakably ugly and ridiculous people. The American oligarchs viewed themselves as above the law and even above the Constitution.
Out of the efforts of John D. Rockefeller III and the network of organizations and think-tanks he dominated, including the New York Council on Foreign Relations, the idea was launched that tax-free private foundations such as the Rockefeller Foundation or the Ford Foundation would fund new networks. The new networks came to be known as Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). In actual fact those private NGOs effectively served to advance the agenda of the American oligarchs, though even many of the participants in those NGOs sincerely believed they were doing good.
The Speculator
Around the beginning of the 1990’s one of their protégés, a Wall Street high-risk speculator, began to play an increasingly useful role for those powerful persons standing behind George H.W. Bush. Bush by that time held the highest office of the land as President of the United States, where his power to implement the oligarchs’ agenda was significant. Indicative of their agenda was an executive order Bush gave in 1992, known as the “Doctrine of Substantial Equivalence” that freed genetically modified seeds, GMO, from any government health and safety tests. Such a brazen defiance of government responsibility by a US President would have been unthinkable even twenty years earlier.
The Wall Street speculator was to be a useful vehicle for advancing the oligarchs’ interests, with his ability to move billions of dollars around the globe through his offshore hedge funds, sophisticated financial derivatives and other agencies, and using his own tax-exempt family foundations to fund NGOs around the world that would advance their globalization agenda, what President George H.W. Bush in an address to the US Congress in 1991 called a New World Order.
The speculator’s name was George Soros. He had been born into a wealthy Jewish family in Hungary in 1930 as György Schwartz. The family changed the name in 1936 during the Nazi time to the less Jewish-sounding Sorosz, and later he made it simply Soros. By 1991 Soros was about to be made into a mythical “man with the Midas touch” as the friendly corporate media named him. It was more than gold however that Soros produced.
Soros once told a TV interviewer of his career as a teenager during the pro-Hitler Hungarian fascist dictatorship of Miklós Horthy into the pro-Nazi dictatorship of Ferenc Szálas who murdered more than 15,000 Jews in his three-month reign. George Sorosz was said to be the only eminent “holocaust survivor” who was accused of collaboration with the Nazis.
He boasted to the TV moderator that he as a young George Sorosz posed as a gentile with forged papers, assisting the Horthy government to seize property of Hungarian Jews who were being shipped to the Nazi death camps. Soros told the TV moderator, “There was no sense that I shouldn’t be there, because that was–well, actually, in a funny way, it’s just like in markets–that if I weren’t there–of course, I wasn’t doing it, but somebody else would.”
After the war the clever Sorosz changed his name to Soros when he went to London to study, and then in the 1950’s moved to New York where in 1969, after a lackluster career, he opened one of the first high-risk investment funds known as hedge funds. It was called Quantum Fund. He had a little help from some very rich friends. Notably, for all Soros’ talk about “open society” and “democracy” in his tax-exempt foundations, his Quantum Fund was completely secretive. He was given his starting capital of $6 million from the British Rothschild bankers and their network of wealthy friends.
It was the beginning of more than four decades of unpublicized business with the international network of the European Rothschild family.
Soros’ Quantum Fund was registered in Curaçao, an offshore tax haven in the Caribbean Netherlands Antilles. His group of 99 “sophisticated investors” as they were called (the legal limit under US law for such a fund to be allowed to trade in US markets-w.e.), included, as Soros once noted, the Queen of England. They were all non-Americans. That meant that US tax authorities were prohibited from opening his books, not at all what one could call an “open society.”
The Netherlands Antilles had repeatedly been cited by the Task Force on Money Laundering of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) as one of the world’s most important centers for laundering illegal proceeds of the Latin American cocaine and other drug traffic.
In 1992 when he rose to worldwide attention for his attack on the Bank of England and the Pound, Soros’ Quantum Fund board of directors included a curious mix of senior Rothschild bankers such as Richard Katz of the London N.M. Rothschild and Sons, Nils O. Taube, partner of Lord Jacob Rothschild’s London investment group St. James Place Capital.
As well Soros’ Quantum Fund was home to very dubious international bankers such as Edgar de Picciotto of the Geneva private bank Union Bancaire Privée. In November 1994, US Federal agents arrested a senior official of de Picciotto’s Geneva bank, Jean-Jacques Handali, along with two other UBP officials, on charges of leading a multimillion-dollar drug-money-laundering ring. According to the US Attorney’s Office in Miami, Handali and Union Banque Privee were the “Swiss connection” in an international drug-money-laundering ring tied to Colombian and Turkish cocaine and heroin cartels. Such were the hand-picked business associates of Mr. Soros then.
Who broke the Bank of England?
Soros the hedge fund speculator was behind some of the most destructive financial attacks of the past two decades. In 1992 he won notoriety as the “man who broke the Bank of England,” betting hundreds of millions through his Quantum Fund hedge fund that the Pound would have to devalue under financial pressure and to leave the European Monetary System (EMS), the forerunner to the Euro. Soros’ attack on the Pound Sterling suited Washington and Wall Street who wanted to prevent the City of London with its considerable financial weight from becoming part of the emerging Euro in possible competition to Wall Street and the global role of the US dollar.
Experienced financial insiders in London at the time noted that no single hedge fund could risk losing literally billions had he been wrong. They suspected that he must have traded on insider knowledge. Indeed, Soros was later convicted in a French court for criminal insider trading and the conviction was upheld on appeal, so insider trading did not seem far-fetched.
Soros played a key role then in the hedge fund attacks that precipitated the 1997 financial crises in Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines and South Korean–the Asia Crisis. The targets of his attacks were the fast-growing Asian “Tiger” economies, all of whom had followed the postwar Japanese guided economic development model, all financed by domestic savings.
So long as the Asian Tigers were independent and their currencies were state controlled, US banks and Hedge Funds like Soros’ were unable to loot them as they had in Latin America during the 1980’ and in Africa. Soros reportedly made a huge profit attacking the Asian Tiger economies in 1997 and then came in after his attacks had collapsed their markets, buying up assets quite cheap before IMF money again brought currency prices higher. In 1998 Soros also played a key role in forcing the Russian sovereign debt default.
From his initial beginnings as hedge fund manager in 1969 until the present, Soros worked intimately with the Rothschild banking family. They were partners in numerous gold mining companies in Liberia, Canada and elsewhere.
The method of Soros and his business associates amounted to a strategy of “humanitarian” military interventions and “color revolutions” orchestrated by Washington and the CIA to install technocrat-controlled governments backed by global institutions. Then, like vultures, Soros and friends would descend on the new regime as the regime was ordered by the IMF or the West to transfer national assets into international market shareholdings, which Soros or his small circle of business friends grab at dirt-cheap prices.
As with the Rockefeller family foundation, Soros’ foundations were not charity but business, and with a tax free geopolitical spin that benefited his sponsors in New York and London.
Soros’ worldwide business interests included participation in the very secretive Washington Carlyle Group, the world’s biggest private investor group. Carlyle owned strategic stakes in the US military industrial complex, including United Defense Industries. Other Carlyle investors had at various times included former CIA director and later US President, George Bush Sr., members of the Saudi Bin Laden family, General Colin Powell, former CIA Deputy Director Frank Carlucci and Bush family attorney and Secretary of State, James Baker III.
The Devious Philanthropist
The other side of the secretive Mr. Soros was as opaque as his financial dealings. That was his tax-exempt foundations. Soros’ Open Society Foundations operated in some 50 countries and his financial contributions supported the work of a dazzling array of “human rights” and “democracy-building” soft power NGOs which inevitably seemed to mirror the specific regime change agenda of the US State Department and the CIA. Washington investigative journalist Wayne Madsen, former NSA employee, claimed that Soros worked closely with the CIA and CIA-controlled NGOs like the National Endowment for Democracy to topple world leaders unfriendly to a Washington or, more precisely, CIA agenda.
Soros deviously used his various tax-exempt human rights NGOs funded by his Open Society Foundations to lead specific well-planned attacks on a targeted leader such as Milosevic in Yugoslavia in 2000 or Cesar Chavez in Venezuela who resisted his and Washington’s interests.
After a suitable “free market-friendly” Soros-backed opponent was then installed in a “democratic” upheaval, Soros and his cronies typically moved in to buy up the country’s crown jewels at throwaway prices. It was a special kind of “Public-Private Partnership” where the public officials served Soros’ private interests.
All across formerly communist Eastern Europe, Soros was directly responsible in the beginning of the 1990s for introducing radical economic “shock therapy” in Poland, Ukraine and later Boris Yeltsin’s Russia. Economic Shock Therapy, named after the brutal practice in psychiatric treatment, was the insane idea that communist state-owned economies must make the transition to “free market” at once, and with a single shock, deregulate and privatize all in one stroke.
First came Poland, where the first post-communist Prime Minister, Tadeusz Mazowiecki, was close to Soros and associated with Soros’ Polish Stefan Batory Foundation. In his book Underwriting Democracy, Soros boasted that he personally prepared the broad outlines of Poland’s shock therapy: “I joined forces with Professor Jeffrey Sachs of Harvard University, who was advocating a similar program, and sponsored his work in Poland through the Stefan Batory Foundation…The IMF approved and the program went into effect on Jan. 1, 1990. It was very tough on the population, but people were willing to take a lot of pain in order to see real change.”
Soros then moved into Yeltsin’s Russia where he brought Sachs and shock therapy, working with Russia’s “reformist” leaders Anatoly Chubais and Yegor Gaidar beginning in 1991. Within a year of their “shock therapy,” hyperinflation had wiped out Russians’ savings and the long-suffering middle class with it. Pensioners were literally starving. Hospitals were closed for lack of state support. The parallel “privatization” of Russia’s huge resources–timber, oil, gas, chemicals, media–created the robber oligarchs and contributed to Russia’s effective deindustrialization. Many of the oligarchs developed business ties with Soros or related Rothschild networks.
Case study: Liberia
In West Africa Soros backed a former Open Society employee of his, Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, giving her international publicity and through his influence, even arranging a Nobel Peace Prize for her in 2011, insuring her election as president. Before her presidency she had been well-indoctrinated into the Western free market game, studying economics at Harvard and working for the US-controlled World Bank in Washington and the Rockefeller Citibank in Nairobi. Before becoming Liberia’s President, she worked for Soros directly as chair of his Open Society Initiative for West Africa (OSIWA).
Once in office, President Sirleaf opened the doors for Soros to take over major Liberian gold and base metals assets along with his partner, Nathaniel Rothschild. One of her first acts as President was to also invite the Pentagon’s new Africa Command, AFRICOM, into Liberia whose purpose as a Liberian investigation revealed, was to “protect George Soros and Rothschild mining operations in West Africa rather than champion stability and human rights.”
Rothschild and Soros reportedly participated in lucrative mining projects not only in Liberia but around the world. George Soros also held a major stake in the giant Newmont Mining Co. along with Rothschild cousin, Sir James Goldsmith.
Inverting Human Rights
In order to better understand how devious and destructive the private philanthropic and speculative business operations of Soros were, it was necessary to examine the network of official NGOs that George Soros almost always swam together with.
In the early 1980’s amid Church Committee Senate investigation of illegal CIA activities, Bill Casey, Ronald Reagan’s CIA Director, proposed creation of a kind of privatized CIA, on the surface a private Non-Governmental Organization or NGO, but in reality coordinating their activities with the larger geopolitical agenda of the CIA and US State Department. It was to be called the National Endowment for Democracy or NED.
The NED, along with the US Government’s Freedom House NGO and various local branches of Soros’ Open Society organizations, would be at the center of all the major US State Department-backed “Color Revolution” destabilization operations since 2000, including Yugoslavia, Ukraine, Georgia, Belarus, Iran, China, Myanmar, Venezuela and the Arab Spring in Tunisia, Egypt, Syria.
NED was created during the Reagan Administration to function as a de facto CIA, privatized so as to allow more freedom of action, what the CIA jargon terms “plausible deniability.” Allen Weinstein, who helped draft the legislation establishing NED, said in a 1991 interview, “A lot of what we do today was done covertly 25 years ago by the CIA.”
The NED had several entities under its wing. They were the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs (NDI) which worked closely with the US Democratic Party and which was chaired in 2014 by former Clinton Secretary of State Madeline Albright; the International Republican Institute (IRI) tied to the US Republican Party and chaired by neo-conservative war hawk, Senator John McCain; the American Center for International Labor Solidarity tied to the US’ major trade union group, AFL-CIO, which had worked closely with the CIA since the Cold War.
Soros and his Open Society Foundations were significant funders of NED and its offshoots, working to promote the foreign policy agenda of the State Department around the world along with the US Government, another one of those “public-private partnerships.”
It had nothing to do with true democracy. The “human rights” and “democracy” were simply Orwellian words for their opposite, imposing a Washington control on reluctant nations around the world to advance a one globalized world, one dominated by Washington and Wall Street. They practiced human rights advocacy as an instrument of Washington foreign policy, the inversion of human rights.
They came to be called “Color Revolutions” because of the slick Madison Avenue image making colors used to name each regime change—Rose Revolution in Georgia, Orange Revolution in Ukraine. Soros never acted alone.
In a 2014 CNN interview after the US-financed putsch, George Soros even boasted that his Open Society foundation in Kiev had been active in Maidan Square events that brought a group of criminals and neo-nazis to power in Kiev, and as well in the 2004 Orange Revolution in Ukraine.
In 2004 just weeks after Soros’ International Renaissance Foundation had manipulated, with aid of CNN, to bring in a pro-NATO Viktor Yushchenko as President of Ukraine, Michael McFaul wrote an OpEd for the Washington Post. McFaul, a specialist in organizing such color revolutions and who later became US Ambassador to Russia, openly boasted:
Did Americans meddle in the internal affairs of Ukraine? Yes. The American agents of influence would prefer different language to describe their activities — democratic assistance, democracy promotion, civil society support, etc. — but their work, however labeled, seeks to influence political change in Ukraine. The U.S. Agency for International Development, the National Endowment for Democracy and a few other foundations sponsored certain U.S. organizations, including Freedom House, the International Republican Institute, the National Democratic Institute, the Solidarity Center, the Eurasia Foundation, Internews and several others to provide small grants and technical assistance to Ukrainian civil society. The European Union, individual European countries and the Soros-funded International Renaissance Foundation did the same.
All that was done through Soros’ network of tax-free foundations and US Government-financed NGOs like NED or Freedom House. The responsibility for the war today in Ukraine and the danger of a nuclear confrontation between NATO and Russia can be laid at the doorstep of George Soros and his allied organizations.
If an incumbent leader in a country was hostile to the Soros agenda, as was usually the case, the Soros-financed NGO named Human Rights Watch, which Soros gave a generous $100 million in 2010, would begin an international scandal campaign about alleged human rights violations, whether in Myanmar, China, Egypt, Russia or any of dozens of countries where the US State Department and CIA sought regime change.
Curiously, Human Rights Watch was deafeningly silent about brazen human rights abuses in US-allied countries like Saudi Arabia or Israel.
The Soros Open Society Foundations and Soros tax-exempt money had been involved in every US State Department and CIA-funded regime change since the 1989 Tiananmen Square student protests where Soros’ Fund for the Reform and Opening of China was forced to shut down by Chinese authorities and its director arrested. Soros had set the Fund up with an impressive $1 million grant in 1986 with the blessing of ousted reformer Communist Party chief Zhao Ziyang.
George Soros was dubbed by the US establishment’s Time magazine as the “Robin Hood of the computer age,” because he seemingly took the money from the rich countries via his shrewd speculations and via his Open Society and other foundations generously gave it to the post-communist countries of east Europe, Russia and later some 50 select countries.
In a 2002 report, Forbes magazine quoted Peter Bod, a former cabinet minister and central bank governor in Hungary: “Soros is the most influential non-elected politician east of the Alps.” His power stemmed not from the ballot box but from his bank account.
His money bought key media in target countries to advance the agenda of the State Department and Soros there. Soros-owned media existed in over a dozen languages-from the Gazeta Wyborcza in Warsaw to Danas in Serbia, the Monitor in Montenegro, the Markiza TV channel in Bratislava, and Vreme weekly and the B-92 electronic media conglomerate in Belgrade, to only name post-communist eastern Europe.
The Soros-owned media invariably parroted Soros’ views and ambitions, reflected by the agenda of the local Soros foundation and, in world affairs, the agenda of the International Crisis Group (ICG). The ICG was largely financed by Soros and run by his appointees such as David Rockefeller’s old Trilateral Commission associate, Zbigniew Brzezinski, former NATO General Wesley Clark responsible for the illegal 1999 bombing of Belgrade and others.
Soros was not just the money behind the Open Society Institutes, the US Institute of Peace, the National Endowment for Democracy, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and the International Crisis Group. Gilles d’Aymery, founder of Swans Commentary, noted,
“Like an immense Jules Verne octopus, he extends his tentacles all over Eastern Europe, South-Eastern Europe, the Caucasus as well as the republics of the former Soviet Union. With the help of these various groups it is possible not only to shape but to create the news, the agenda and public opinion to further aims which are, in short, the control of the world, its natural resources and the furtherance of the uniform ideal of a perfect world polity made in America.”
In that way Soros and his foundations installed “democracy” and “civil society” in countries which were exhausted during communism or devastated with various financial crises. He used his dollars to buy key political figures and influential academics and journalists to open the country for his asset stripping in the name of the free market economy.
That was the person behind the financing and creation of the European Council on Foreign Relations. As the expression went, “Who pays the piper calls the tune,” and Soros clearly called the tune at his new London think tank, European Council on Foreign Relations.
European Council on Foreign Relations
The European Council on Foreign Relations was from the onset a strange creation. It was founded in 2007, as they stated on their official website, “to conduct research and promote informed debate across Europe on the development of coherent and effective European-values-based foreign policy.” It boasted of being the “first pan-European think-tank.” It left open the question of what a “European-values-based foreign policy” could be in their eyes. The values were clearly not the same values as most ordinary Europeans held dear.
Who the money bought…
As noted, the initial financial donation to create the European Council on Foreign Relations came from not from an EU citizen but from an American, George Soros. In a devious attempt to pass himself off as an EU citizen, he listed himself as being from “Hungary/US on the ECFR website and official statements.
The board of the ECFR in early 2015 included former Finnish President Martti Ahtisaari as co-chair. Ahtisaari as Finnish president pushed for Finland to join NATO and was involved as mediator in Namibia, Indonesia, Iraq, Central Asia, Kosovo and Northern Ireland.
The co-chair of Soros’ ECFR was Princess Mabel van Oranje of Holland, the controversial widow of Prince Friso, brother of King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands. Before her marriage to Prince Friso, she admitted to having had a relationship with Klaas Bruinsma, Europe’s greatest drug lord, who was murdered in 1991. That, and an adultery scandal which broke in the Dutch press, kept her from having an official Royal marriage to Friso and cost Prince Friso his right to succession to the Dutch throne.
Princess Mabel had been a longtime associate of the billionaire Soros. She had been Executive Director of Soros’ Open Society Institute in Brussels since 1997 and was the Open Society Institute International Advocacy Director before becoming the co-chair of Soros’ European Council on Foreign Relations in 2007.
The ECFR Directors
Other notable ECFR Directors included Danish former Climate (Global Warming) and Energy Minister, Lykke Friis, who also sat on Soros’ International Crisis Group and David Rockefeller’s Trilateral Commission; Jean-Marie Guéhenno, Director, Centre for International Conflict Resolution at Columbia University, and a member of Soros’ International Crisis Group; Alexander Graf Lambsdorff, nephew of the late FDP Finance Minister Otto Graf Lambsdorff, and a German FDP Member of the European Parliament. Lambsdorff was also Chairman, European Endowment for Democracy (EED), an NGO explicitly modelled on Washington’s NED ; Ana Palacio of Spain, former Foreign Minister and former Vice President of the US-controlled World Bank; Aleksander Smolar, Chairman of Soros’ Stefan Batory Foundation in Poland; Javier Solana, former Secretary General of NATO as well as chairman of the Aspen Institute España, member of the board of the Soros-funded International Crisis Group and the Soros-funded Human Rights Watch. It was no exaggeration to say that the European Council on Foreign Relations was a George Soros US-created operation from top to toe.
The ECFR Pan-European Council
Two times a year the ECFR convenes a meeting of its Pan-European Council, some hundred selected EU politicians, business people and others to develop ECFR strategies. The Council as of early 2015 was chaired by three ECFR members: Martti Ahtisaari,Princess Mabel van Oranje and former German Minister of Foreign Affairs, Joschka Fischer, a Hungarian butchers’ son who during the 1970’s had more than one clash with police in Germany for violent street protests. Fischer was one of the initial founders of ECFR in 2007.
Other Council members included Bernard Kouchner, French founder of the Soros-funded Doctors without Borders and Foreign Minister during President Sarkozy’s term. It included former WTO head Pascal Lamy; Jean-Claude Trichet, former European Central Bank chairman who as ECB head played a disgraceful role in the 2011 Greek crisis to save French banks exposed to Greece; Daniel Cohn-Bendit, German member of European Parliament, May 1968 student strike leader in France known as ‘Dany le Rouge’ and Green Party paedophile supporter. Notably Cohn-Bendit had been co-founder in the late 1960’s of the autonomist group Revolutionärer Kampf (Revolutionary Struggle) in Rüsselsheim. His other co-founder in Rüsselsheim was Joschka Fischer who was working at the Opel car factory in Rüsselsheim. Other notable hand-picked ECFR Council members were former German Defense Minister who was forced to resign over a plagiarism scandal around his PhD hesis, Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg who was invited to join the Washington neo-conservative Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) after his disgraceful German political exit.
On the Pan-European Council there was also Wolfgang Ischinger, former German Ambassador to Washington who chaired the Munich Security Conference, where Soros was invited to speak in defense of Ukraine in early 2015; Cem Özdemir, co-chair of the German political party Alliance ’90/The Greens. The Council list includes under the Hungary delegation George Soros as (Hungary/USA). From Italy, there was former Goldman Sachs executive and Italian Prime Minister and EU Commission President, Romano Prodi.
Dutch former NATO Secretary-General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer was also on the Council. Former Polish Central Bank head and Deputy Prime Minister, Leszek Balcerowicz, who implemented Soros’ Shock Therapy in Poland, renamed the Balcerowicz Plan in the early 1990’s, sat as well on Soros’ ECFR Council, alongside former Polish Defense Minister and US-tied neo-conservative, Radek Sikorski. From Spain Council member of Soros’ ECFR included Javier Solana, another former NATO Secretary-General and former EU Foreign Policy head.
Given the people the American politician and speculator, Soros, hand-picked to populate the European Council on Foreign Relations, it came as no shock that the policy positions of his ECFR closely echoed Washington policies on such themes as vocal support for the US-backed neo-Nazi Ukraine regime in Kiev, demonization of Russia, support for Washington’s controversial Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). The European Council on Foreign Relations was little more than a baby Council on Foreign Relations whose umbilical cord was very much tied to New York and Washington.
The think-tanks described in these chapters are the core think tanks of the Anglo-American establishment that controls media throughout the United States and the European Union. All of them share the same unspoken agenda—racism of the Anglo-Saxon white race, eugenics or drastic population reduction of the non-Anglo-Saxons. If we are more aware of how we are being manipulated by the mainstream media, it is far more feasible not to let ourselves get drawn into the hypnosis that that media always speaks the truth and represents the good. Unfortunately that was not the case.
