The Lies of History

The Lies of History

How much of what we’ve read and been taught from our history books is really true?  Here are just a few examples of historical “facts” [all major news events at the time; some still accepted] that don’t add up any more in light of newly uncovered historical evidence.

 

You may or may not be a lover of history; however you better pay attention to this.  The future of you, your children, and grand children is at stake.  That is no exaggeration. 

 

"A society whose citizens refuse to see and investigate the facts, who refuse to believe that their government and their media will routinely lie to them and fabricate a reality contrary to verifiable facts, is a society that chooses and deserves the Police State Dictatorship it's going to get."  Ian Williams Goddard.

 

 

The USS Maine was destroyed by Spanish terrorists. 

 

Having raised the ship, historians now know that the explosion that sunk the Maine and launched the Spanish-American War was due to an explosion inside the ship.  It was not mines set by Spanish terrorists.  But never the less, the corporate controlled war hawks of that era still got their war and made their millions and got Cuba and the Philippines out of the deal.  The ordinary soldiers got maimed or dead out of the deal.

 

 

“History is a lie commonly agreed upon” Voltaire.

 

 

The Lusitania was an unarmed passenger ship.

 

The truth is the Lusitania was loaded to the gunnels with war munitions; an illegal cargo in violation of agreed upon neutrality policies.  When the torpedo struck the ship, the bottom blew out, thus the reason for it’s sinking in 10 minutes.  To top it off, British and American leaders allowed the Lusitania to be sunk.  How?  By removing destroyer escort and ordering the ship to reduce speed [by order of Winston Churchill, Lord of the Admiralty].  It would then be vulnerable to the U Boats.  Germany knew that the Lusitania carried these munitions and tried to warn Americans not to sail on the Lusitania by placing ads in eastern newspapers.  President Wilson along with the newspaper owners (Wall Street) blocked all the ads except one in St. Louis. 

 

Why did they put the Lusitania in harms way?  After war was declared by Congress, Wilson said it was to “preserve the world for democracy”.  Behind the scenes, one of the real reasons was to secure loans made to Britain and France by the Morgan banking cabal because if they lost the war the countries would not be able to pay back the money.  There are other reasons, such as the Balfour Declaration (Britain, if they won, would support the annexation of Palestine for the creation of the state of Israel which was a goal of the Rothschild banking dynasty), war contracts, and the destabilization of European governments resulting in the creation of the League of Nations (failed predecessor to the United Nations). 

 

Legendary Marine Corp General Smedley Butler, who authored War is a Racket, said that 21,000 millions and billionaires were created by this war.  What did the soldiers get?  Maimed and dead.

 

 

The Russian Revolution was the masses rising up against their greedy capitalistic overlords.

 

Communism or more accurately, socialism, is not a movement of the downtrodden masses, but of the economic elite.  That’s right; capitalists funded Lenin and his gang. They gave millions in gold to fund the Russian Revolution. They funded Marx while he was in New York writing all of his socialist/communist junk.  They invented communism, socialism, and Marxism.  It was their idea.  Those ideologies at that time became the new 20^th century way of controlling the masses and starting more wars.

 

Why create the Soviet Union?  Well, the Czar wouldn’t borrow money from the European bankers, but Lenin and Stalin did.  Also the West needed a formidable enemy, so the international bankers could loan to both sides.  Then you have all those people and natural resources to exploit.  “Good trade” as the Native Americans would say.

 

“If one understands that socialism is not a share-the-wealth program, but is in reality a method to consolidate and control the wealth, then the seeming paradox of super-rich men promoting socialism becomes no paradox at all. Instead, it becomes logical, even the perfect tool of power-seeking megalomaniacs,” writes Allen. “Communism or more accurately, socialism, is not a movement of the downtrodden masses, but of the economic elite.”  Author, Gary Allen; The progeny of these super elite still controls the western world.

 

 

“In war, the truth must be guarded by a body of lies.”  Winston Churchill.

 

 

The attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise.

 

Even big name historians now acknowledge that Roosevelt knew the attack was coming but did nothing to stop it.  Hollywood has never been so far off the mark.  We had broken the Japanese code.  We knew they were going to attack Pearl Harbor, even the approximate time frame.  As a matter of fact we provoked the Japanese into attacking.  Roosevelt froze their assets, shut them out of the Panama Canal, and cut off their oil supplies.  Of course FDR was getting his orders, like all Presidents from higher up, way higher.  He and a few others bottled up the information of an impending Japanese attack and let the attack happen.  Why?  It was the only way to galvanize support and get the American people behind the war.  Tell that to dead.  There is much, much more about World War II that was manipulated. 

 

Nazi Germany was created from Wall Street money.  Also after the war started, Prescott Bush, grandfather of ‘Dubya’, and director of Union Bank in New York and later Senator, was busted in 1942 for continuing to do business with Nazi Germany.  The primary reason for this war was the creation of the United Nations and the war contracts.  Well they got their United Nations and they made billions off of the war contracts.  The soldiers got maimed and dead. 

 

 

“A truth’s initial commotion is directly proportional to how deeply the lie was believed.  It wasn’t the world being round that agitated people, but that the world wasn’t flat.  When a well packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, the truth will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic.”  Dresden James, Author.

 

 

The Gulf of Tonkin Incident was Vietnam’s fault.

 

Historians now know that Presidents Johnson’s purposeful provocation of events in the Gulf of Tonkin gave him a useful incident he needed to escalate the war and at the same time blame in on the North Vietnamese. 

 

"American Planes Hit North Vietnam After Second Attack on Our Destroyers; Move Taken to Halt New Aggression", announced a Washington Post headline on Aug. 5, 1964.  That was a lie.  One of the Navy pilots flying overhead that night was squadron commander James Stockdale, who gained fame later as a POW and then Ross Perot's vice presidential candidate. "I had the best seat in the house to watch that event," recalled Stockdale, "and our destroyers were just shooting at phantom targets -- there were no PT boats there.... There was nothing there but black water and American fire power."  No one was there?  How can there be an incident if no one else was there?

 

Results of the war:  58,148 Americans were killed, 304,000 wounded, 75,000 Vietnam veterans were severely disabled.  Vietnamese casualties from both north and south were 15 million.  The military industrial complex also made a killing in profits.  The soldiers got their usual; maimed and dead.

 

 

“Tell a lie loud enough and loud enough and people will believe it.”  Hitler

 

 

Sadaam Hussein was a treat to America.

 

We now know that Iraq did not possess weapons of mass destruction nor was Iraq involved in any way to the events of September 11^th.  Yet these lies were used to invade Iraq.  How do we know?  Well the chemical weapons that we sold Iraq during the Iraq-Iran war during the 80’s were destroyed at the end of the Gulf War in 1991.  Early in Bush’s first term, in February of 2001, Powell and Rumsfeld said that Iraq was not a nuclear threat. Rumsfeld: "Iraq is probably not a nuclear threat at the present time." Powell: "[Saddam] has not developed any significant capability with respect to weapons of mass destruction. He is unable to project conventional power against his neighbors."

 

From Alan Greenspan’s new book, The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World. He writes “I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil.” Greenspan is a liar about being saddened.  But he is spot on about the real reason for the war.  He is happy because he and his kind have profited off of it.  Greenspan is controlled by the Rothschild banking dynasty.  One reason for going into Iraq was to control their oil.  Not necessarily to produce that oil, but for Western oil companies to control the production of it.  By keeping it off the world market, oil prices and thus their profits are maximized.  And also having all those permanent military bases in Iraq is a prime directive for the neo-con think tank, Project for a New American Century (PNAC), in their document Rebuilding America’s Defenses.

 

 

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”  Joseph Goebbels

 

The next lie?  Iran is a nuclear threat to the world, especially Israel.

“Over the long term, Iran may well prove as large a threat to U.S.
interests in the [Persian] Gulf as Iraq has. And even should
U.S.-Iranian relations improve, retaining forward-based forces in the
region would still be an essential element in U.S. security strategy
given the longstanding American interests in the region,” Rebuilding America’s Defenses: Strategies, Forces, and Resources For a New Century, September, 2000, by neocon think tank Project for a New American Century.

 

Israel has 200 nukes, Iran has nothing.   We have 6000 nukes, Iran has nothing.  But Ahmadinejad threatened to “wipe Israel off the map”.  This man is just another goofball sounding Middle East leader but is that really what he said?  No, it was a purposeful mistranslation that was repeated over and over again by the main stream media.  He was quoting a decade’s old speech by the Ayatollah Khomeini who was referring to at that time about the Shah of Iran, that the Shah’s regime should be “erased from the pages of time”.  The interpretation was for the ‘regime that is occupying Jerusalem be erased from the pages of time’.   The word “map” is never used.  Think of it as someone is saying they wished the ‘shadow government’ that actually owns and thus controls the United States government should be erased from the pages of time. 

 

An attack on Iran means this; hopefully for them, World War III, just as they have planned.  This little war will probably include Russia, China, $500 per barrel oil, 25% employment, the collapse of the American economy, ‘bye bye’ to the American way of life, and the permanent loss of American sovereignty [just as planned].  What will the soldiers get?  Maimed and dead.

 

 

These are the few instances of major events of the past that have been subjected to what philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau bluntly describes as “falsification of history”.  These events altered the course of history, leading to American intervention in five foreign wars [number six is right around the corner], yet in each case, the official version of what happened wasn’t even true.

 

To really understand the “why” of what’s happening in our world today, you have to know the facts about what’s happened in our past.  You won’t get that from the conventional history books, the universities, or the History Channel.

The Chasm, The Future Is Calling (Part One)

© 2003 – 2009 by G. Edward Griffin

In part one, you will find out about the strategy to control the teaching of history, the two ethics that divide the western world,  the nature of human rights, the origin of state power, the idea of group supremacy, republics vs. democracies, coercion vs. freedom, equality vs. inequality under the law, and proper role of government.

The Future Is Calling (Part Two)

© 2003 – 2009 by G. Edward Griffin

The second part discusses how the philosophy of collectivism was started at Oxford University, Cecil Rhodes Fabian Society, love-hate between the Fabians and the Leninists, the Anglo-American Establishment described by Georgetown Professor Carroll Quigley (Bill Clinton’s mentor), the Council on Foreign Relations, and the art of controlled opposition.

Days of Infamy, The Future Is Calling (Part Three)

© 2003 by G. Edward Griffin

Revised 2009 February 2

The third part is a real eye opener.  What World War I was really all about?  The war to make the world safe for democracy, the strategy by Morgan, Col. House, and others to get the U. S. into the war, the strategy of aggravate, insulate, and facilitate.  The lead up to World War II.  Maneuvering the Japanese into firing the first shot, vacant seas policy, intercepted coded messages, and “was this a real act of statesmanship”?

The War on Terrorism, The Future Is Calling (Part Four)

© 2004 – 2005 by G. Edward Griffin

Revised 2007 November 8

The final part brings us to the present.  The war on terrorism, the Leninist game plan and the Fabian game plan.  Putting out the welcome mat for terrorists, more aggravate, insulate and facilitate.  The FBI is paralyzed by its own leaders, more secrecy in government, and the triumph of collectivism.
