In our modern world there exist certain
institutions of power. Not government committees, alphabet agencies,
corporate lobbies, or even standard military organizations; no, these are the
mere “middle-men” of power. The errand boys. The well paid hitmen of the
global mafia. They are not the strategists or the decision makers.
Instead, I speak of institutions which
introduce the newest paradigms. Who write the propaganda. Who issue the
orders from on high. I speak of the hubs of elitism which have initiated
nearly every policy mechanism of our government for the past several decades.
I am talking about the Council On Foreign Relations, the Tavistock Institute,
the Heritage Foundation (a socialist organization posing as conservative),
the Bilderberg Group, as well as the corporate foils that they use to enact
globalization, such as Monsanto, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, the Carlyle Group,
etc.
Many of these organizations and corporations
operate a revolving door within the U.S. government. Monsanto has champions,
like Donald Rumsfeld who was on the board of directors of its Searle
Pharmaceuticals branch, who later went on to help the company force numerous
dangerous products including Aspartame through the FDA. Goldman Sachs and JP
Morgan have a veritable merry-go-round of corrupt banking agents which are
appointed to important White House and Treasury positions on a regular basis
REGARDLESS of which party happens to be in office. Most prominent politicians
are all members of the Council on Foreign Relations, an organization which
has openly admitted on multiple occasions that their goal is the destruction
of U.S. sovereignty and the formation of a “one world government” or
“supranational union” (their words, not mine).
However, one organization seems to rear its
ugly head at the forefront of the most sweeping mass propaganda operations of
our time, and has been linked to the creation of the most atrocious military
methodologies, including the use of false flag events. I am of course
referring to the Rand Corporation, a California based “think tank” whose
influence reaches into nearly every sphere of our society, from politics, to
war, to entertainment.
The Rand Corporation deals in what I would
call “absolute gray”. The goal of the group from its very inception was to
promote a social atmosphere of moral ambiguity in the name of personal and
national priority. They did this first through the creation of “Rational
Choice Theory”; a theory which prescribes that when making any choice, an
individual (or government) must act as if balancing costs against benefits to
arrive at an action that maximizes personal advantage. Basically, the ends
justify the means, and moral conscience is not a factor to be taken seriously
if one wishes to be successful.
Hilariously, rational choice theory has been
attacked in the past by pro-socialist (collectivist) critics as “extreme
individualism”; a philosophy which gives us license to be as “self serving”
as possible while feeling patriotic at the same time. In reality, the
socialists should have been applauding Rand Corporation all along.
What Rand had done through its propaganda war
against the American people was to infuse the exact culture of selfishness
needed to push the U.S. towards the socialist ideal. At the onset of any communist
or national socialist society (sorry socialists, but they do indeed come from
the same collectivist mindset), the masses are first convinced to hand over
ultimate power to the establishment in order to safeguard THEMSELVES, not
others. That is to say, the common collectivist man chooses to hand over his
freedoms and participate in totalitarianism not because he wants what is best
for the world, but because he wants what is best for himself, and he believes
servitude to the system will get him what he wants with as little private
sacrifice as possible (you know, except for his soul…).
The psychologist Carl Jung notes in his
observations of collectivism in Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia that most
citizens of those nations did not necessarily want the formation of a
tyrannical oligarchy, but, they went along with it anyway because they feared
for their own comfort and livelihoods. Many a German supported the Third
Reich simply because they did not want to lose a cushy job, or a steady
paycheck, or they liked that the “trains ran on time”. Socialism is by far
the most selfish movement in history, despite the fact that they claim to do
what they do “for the greater good of the greater number”.
Rand also used Rational Choice Theory as a
means to remove questions of principle from the debate over social progress.
Rational Choice propaganda commonly presents the target audience with a false
conundrum. A perfect example would be the hardcore propaganda based
television show ‘24’ starring Kiefer Sutherland, in which a government
“anti-terrorism” agent is faced with a controlled choice scenario in nearly
every episode. This choice almost always ends with the agent being forced to
set aside his morals and conscience to torture, kill, and destroy without
mercy, or, allow millions of innocents to die if he does not.
Of course, the real world does not work this
way. Life is not a chess game. Avenues to resolution of any crisis are
limited only by our imagination and intelligence, not to mention the immense
number of choices that could be made to defuse a crisis before it develops.
Yet, Rand would like you to believe that we (and those in government) are
required to become monstrous in order to survive. That we should be willing
to forgo conscience and justice now for the promise of peace and tranquility
later.
This is the age old strategy of
Centralization; to remove all choices within a system, by force or
manipulation, until the masses think they have nothing left but the choices
the elites give them. It is the bread and butter of elitist institutions like
Rand Corporation, and is at the core of the push for globalization.
In my studies on the developing economic
disaster (or economic recovery depending on who you talk to) I have come
across a particular methodology many times which set off my analyst alarm (or
spidey-sense, if you will). This latest methodology, called “Linchpin
Theory”, revolves around the work of John Casti, a Ph.D. from USC,
“complexity scientist” and “systems theorist”, a Futurist, and most notably,
a former employee of Rand Corporation:
http://www.viennareview.net/vienna-review-book-reviews/book-reviews/john-casti-an-optimist-of-the-apocalypse
Casti introduces his idea of “Linchpin Theory”
in his book “X-Events: The Collapse Of Everything”, and what I found most
immediately striking about the idea of “Linchpin Events” was how they offered
perfect scapegoat scenarios for catastrophes that are engineered by the
establishment.
Linchpin Theory argues that overt social,
political, and technological “complexity” is to blame for the most
destructive events in modern human history, and it is indeed an enticing
suggestion for those who are uneducated and unaware of the behind the scenes
mechanics of world events. Casti would like you to believe that political and
social tides are unguided and chaotic; that all is random, and disaster is a
product of “chance” trigger events that occur at the height of a
malfunctioning and over-complicated system.
What he fails to mention, and what he should
well know being a member of Rand, is that global events do not evolve in a
vacuum. There have always been those groups who see themselves as the
“select”, and who aspire to mold the future to their personal vision of
Utopia. It has been openly admitted in myriad official observations on
historical events that such groups have had a direct hand in the advent of
particular conflicts.
For instance, Casti would call the
assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria an “X-event”, or
linchpin, leading to the outbreak of WWI, when historical fact recalls that
particular crisis was carefully constructed with the specific mind to involve
the U.S.
Norman Dodd, former director of the Committee
to Investigate Tax Exempt Foundations of the U.S. House of Representatives,
testified that the Committee was invited to study the minutes of the Carnegie
Endowment for International Peace as part of the Committee's investigation.
The Committee stated:
"The trustees of the Foundation brought
up a single question. If it is desirable to alter the life of an entire
people, is there any means more efficient than war.... They discussed this
question... for a year and came up with an answer: There are no known means
more efficient than war, assuming the objective is altering the life of an
entire people. That leads them to a question: How do we involve the United
States in a war. This was in 1909."
So, long before the advent of Ferdinand’s
assassination,...
