Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution: Chapter 10

J.P. MORGAN GIVES A LITTLE HELP TO THE OTHER SIDE

Yes, I am skipping chapter 9 for right now as I think chapter 10 is most pertinent to what 's going on in the news with the Occupy Wall Street business. Listen and learn children as the republican mom tells you a tale of intrigue all too true:

First, let's introduce one of our players, Guaranty Trust Company, a Morgan owned firm. In the mid 1920s, Guaranty was the only fiscal representative of the Soviet Union, the first shipments of Soviet gold were traced to Guaranty. At the very same time Guaranty was handling Soviet money, they founded the anti-Soviet group, United Americans:

United Americans noisily threatened Red invasion by 1922, claimed that $20 million of Soviet funds were on the way to fund Red revolution, and forecast panic in the streets and mass starvation in New York City. 

 Sutton goes on to tell us who comprised the organization of United Americans, and regular readers of this series will recognize many of the names and companies mentioned:

In 1920 the organization United Americans was founded. It was limited to citizens of the United States and planned for five million members, "whose sole purpose would be to combat the teachings of the socialists, communists, I.W.W., Russian organizations and radical farmers societies."In other words, United Americans was to fight all those institutions and groups believed to be anticapitalist. The officer's of the preliminary organization established to build up United Americans were Allen Walker of the Guaranty Trust Company; Daniel Willard, president of the Baltimore 8c Ohio Railroad; H. H. Westinghouse, of Westinghouse Air Brake Company; and Otto H. Kahn, of Kuhn, Loeb 8c Company and American International Corporation. These Wall Streeters were backed up by assorted university presidents arid Newton W. Gilbert (former governor of the Philippines). Obviously, United Americans was, at first glance, exactly the kind of organization that establishment capitalists would be expected to finance and join. Its formation should have brought no great surprise.

On the other hand, as we have already seen, these financiers were also deeply involved in supporting the new Soviet regime in Russia — although this support was behind the scenes, recorded only in government files, and not to be made public for 50 years. As part of United Americans, Walker, Willard, Westinghouse, and Kahn were playing a double game. Otto H. Kahn, a founder of the anti-Communist organization, was reported by the British socialist J. H. Thomas as having his "face towards the light." Kahn wrote the preface to Thomas's book. In 1924 Otto Kahn addressed the League for Industrial Democracy and professed common objectives with this activist socialist group (see page 49). The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad (Willard's employer) was active in the development of Russia during the 1920s. Westinghouse in 1920, the year United Americans was founded, was operating a plant in Russia that had been exempted from nationalization. 

I want you to notice firstly, the duplicity. You think that this has ever been rectified? Why no it hasn't and why should it? It's making a select few people a whole lotta money and they pass this con game onto their kids. Let's just say that they have a "pragmatic" morality. Second, notice that this information and many files from the same period were classified for a long, long time. This book was written in the '70s and much of it was just then becoming declassified. Why? They don't want people who were witnesses to be able to testify and mess up this con they've got running. They effectively have control of the government according to Woodrow Wilson and Red Mike:  

"The real menace of our republic is this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under cover of a self created screen....At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as international bankers. The little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes. They practically control both political parties."

John F. Hylan, 1922 New York City Mayor

“I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. No longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and vote of majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.” – President Woodrow Wilson

A New York Times article comes out March 28, 1920 stating that the Reds plan to invade America with money they have stolen from the Tzars. They know its true because United Americans have done a study... Sound familiar? They said that there were 3,465,000 red radicals running loose in America. They also said that they had $20,000,000 in gold to support the communist movement in America. Some of the same men mentioned in this ad knew full well that they had received $20,000,000 in Soviet gold through the Guaranty Trust company. What we have here is a deliberate and well-thought out case of social engineering meeting CYA.


Dr. Sutton attempts to draw conclusions:

United Americans is the only documented example known to this writer of an organization assisting the Soviet regime and also in the forefront of opposition to the Soviets. This is by no means an inconsistent course of action, and further research should at least focus on the following aspects:

(a) Are there other examples of double-dealing by influential groups generally known as the establishment?

(b) Can these examples be extended into other areas? For example, is there evidence that labor troubles have been instigated by these groups?

(c) What is the ultimate purpose of these pincer tactics? Can they be related to the Marxian axiom: thesis versus antithesis yields synthesis? It is a puzzle why the Marxist movement would attack capitalism head-on if its objective was a Communist world and if it truly accepted the dialectic. If the objective is a Communist world — that is, if communism is the desired synthesis — and capitalism is the thesis, then something apart from capitalism or communism has to be antithesis. Could therefore capitalism be the thesis and communism the antithesis, with the objective of the revolutionary groups and their backers being a synthesizing of these two systems into some world system yet undescribed?

The one-world socialist state is not some crazy conspiracy theorist talking, it is what these godless, progressive types (George Bernard Shaw, HG Wells, etc) of the early 20th century talked on and on about. Regular people dismissed them as ivory tower dreamers that could not possibly affect them. Little did they realize that these materialistic pragmatists had backing, or rather sympathy, from the richest people in the world. Or maybe they were funded by these Wall Street peeps. Moving along...

Concurrently with these efforts to aid the Soviet Bureau and United Americans, the J.P. Morgan firm, which controlled Guaranty Trust, was providing financial assistance for one of the Bolshevik's primary opponents, Admiral Aleksandr Kolchak in Siberia.

Admiral Kolchak

Playing both sides for profit and control. Sounding familiar? But why would they fund the Bolsheviks opposition after we have learned how hard Wall Street worked to get the Bolsheviks in power?

Congressman Mason introduced House Resolution 132 instructing the State Department "to make inquiry as to all and singular as to the truth of . . . press reports" charging that Russian bondholders had used their influence to bring about the "retention of American troops in Russia" in order to ensure continued payment of interest on Russian bonds.

Ah. Kolchak was also loaned even more money by a consortium of Wall Street banks which Secretary of State Lansing signed off on since some of it had gone through already.

The Soviet gold sales and the Kolchak loan also suggest that Carroll Quigley's statement that Morgan interests infiltrated the domestic left applied also to overseas revolutionary and counterrevolutionary movements. Summer 1919 was a time of Soviet military reverses in the Crimea and the Ukraine and this black picture may have induced British and American bankers to mend their fences with the anti-Bolshevik forces. The obvious rationale would be to have a foot in all camps, and so be in a favorable position to negotiate for concessions and business after the revolution or counterrevolution had succeeded and a new government stabilized. As the outcome of any conflict cannot be seen at the start, the idea is to place sizable bets on all the horses in the revolutionary race.

This right here is their game plan. That's why nothing in this country ever changes. They apply this principle to American politics and have done so successfully for decades. Had there been an internet in 1913, we wouldn't have the mess we're in now. For one thing, the average person's literacy rate and attention span were much longer. If they could have blogged all this, these people wouldn't have gone anywhere. These Wall Street people know that information is power. That's why the first thing they did when they set out on this "conquer the world" vision was to take control of the educational system. Stupid people are no threat.

In autumn 1919 the Berlin newspaper Berliner Zeitung am Mittak (October 8 and 9) accused the Morgan firm of financing the West Russian government and the Russian-German forces in the Baltic fighting the Bolsheviks — both allied to Kolchak. The Morgan firm strenuously denied the charge: "This firm has had no discussion, or meeting, with the West Russian Government or with anyone pretending to represent it, at any time." But if the financing charge was inaccurate there is evidence of collaboration. Documents found by Latvian government intelligence among the papers of Colonel Bermondt, commander of the Western Volunteer Army, confirm "the relations claimed existing between Kolchak's London Agent and the German industrial ring which was back of Bermondt."

In other words, we know that J.P. Morgan, London, and New. York bankers financed Kolchak. There is also evidence that connects Kolchak and his army with other anti-Bolshevik armies. And there seems to be little question that German industrial and banking circles were financing the all-Russian anti-Bolshevik army in the Baltic. Obviously bankers' funds have no national flag.

So chaps, are we getting the picture here? Or would you rather me drone on about hippy kids sitting around Wall Street? For all I know some of them are paid actors to stand around and act stupid so that all you righties out there will get all hot and bothered and get into a real Red Scare lather over it all. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve Banking Cartel, the heir apparent to this proud heritage of fiduciary structuring, goes on devaluing our currency and the unpatriotic, "couldn't give a crap about the Constitution" (unless it benefits them) corporations are shipping our manufacturing base to bongo-bongo land. Herman Cain, former KC Fed chief has the audacity to tell people to "go get a job"? Sure, Herman they'll get right on that, as soon as they get their freaking passport. Why don't they just start their own business? Yeah, right. If they can stay awake filling out all the forms required. Not to mention how breaking even will be a challenge as the average person is lacking in money, 'cause they ain't got a job!


It's time to get off your talking points people! Cut off the cable and satellite. I've stopped pretty much listening to all talk radio. Why? Because I already know what they're going to say. Left, right, doesn't matter, all I've got to do is look at Drudge and I will know what bell the Elites will be ringing today. I go to the more mainstream blogs, and oh yeah, no surprises there -they just carp about lefties and liberals and commies, and talk about how stoopid they are. I guess you can say that I have evolved past that. I'm not trying to sound self-righteous, but I see Western Civilization, something I'm rather fond of, circling a toilet and am trying to find out who the players are - how did we get here? 


I'm taking Dr. Sutton's message to heart - "The battle for American Independence will only be won by facts." I'm trying to make those facts known so that we won't be played for fools any longer. The Elite know that a growing number of people are starting to put these pieces together. That is why I think that we see things accelerating. Please check out my subversion process study to understand how communists will switch a country from an open to a closed society. If you think getting an R in charge is going to fix things, you might as well hang it up. We've got to go for the head of the snake. What facts on the Establishment can you dig up and expose?
