"During World War II and
its aftermath, Sullivan &
Cromwell lawyers such as partners John Foster Dulles and Arthur Dean
played important roles in helping shape domestic policy and international
affairs." - Sullivan & Cromwell LLP
When the Office of
Strategic Services was founded wealthy individuals were approached and asked to
spy for America.
Aristocracy traveled and
socialized with other wealthy
individuals.
From the very beginning intelligence has been aiding
and abetting the transnational corporate
elite reflecting the biases
of that class.
What has leaked out over the years paints an image
of a rogue operation beholden to a transnational corporate elite
concerned only with
profit.
Public diplomacy,
psychological operations,
influence agents,
disinformation and
computer information warfare - from
open and overt to
clandestine and covert, from public explanation of
policy to secret subversion of
enemies.
All of these must be well-orchestrated by a symphonic
conductor.
1941 In preparation for
World War II,
Franklin D
Roosevelt creates the Office of Coordinator of Information
(COI).
William "Wild Bill" Donovan heads the new intelligence
service.
Donovan forges a close alliance with Father Felix Morlion,
founder of a European Catholic intelligence service known as Pro
Deo.
1942 Roosevelt restructures COI
into something more suitable for covert action, the Office of Strategic Services
(OSS).
4 partners and 35 associates of Sullivan & Cromwell are given executive
management poistions.
Donovan recruits so
many of the rich and powerful that eventually people joke that "OSS" stands for
"Oh, so social!" or "Oh, such snobs!"
1943
Donovan recruits
the Black Jesuits of the
Catholic Church in Rome to be the center of Anglo-American spy operations
in Fascist Italy.
This
becomes America' most enduring intelligence alliance in the
Cold War.
Charles
Douglas Jackson joins the OSS.
Edward Hunter, reporting for the
Paris edition of the Chicago
Tribune, lives in Japan and in China from the mid-1920s to mid-1930s,
during the Japanese invasion of Manchukuo and its detachment from China.
Hunter covered the Second Italo-Abyssinian War between Italy and
Ethiopia and took note of the psychological warfare methods used in those
instances as well as during the preparations by Germany for World War II.
According to Hunter's 1958 testimony, he served for two years during
WWII as a "propaganda specialist" for the OSS.
1944 Charles Douglas Jackson is
appointed Deputy Chief at the Psychological Warfare Division at
Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force.
After the war,
he became Managing Director of Time-Life
International.
When it became clear that
Dwight D. Eisenhower
stood a good chance of becoming president, the CIA arranged for Jackson to join
his campaign.
This involved Jackson writing speeches for
Eisenhower.
Eisenhower Library files:
"Area of
responsibility is defined as international affairs,
cold war planning and
psychological
warfare. Main function is coordinating interpretation of world situations
to the advantage of the US by exploiting incidents reflecting negatively on the
Soviet Union , Communist China and Cold War enemies."
Pope Pius XII
confers the Knight Grand Cross of the Order, Pontifical Order of Pope Saint
Sylvester on Major General William Joseph Donovan.
1945 OSS is abolished - remaining American
'information' agencies claim to cease covert action returning to information
gathering and analysis.
May 22, 1945 Operation
Paperclip
While other Federal agencies are hunting down Nazi war
criminals for arrest, the US
intelligence community is smuggling them into America, unpunished, to use
against the Soviets.
The most important of these is
Reinhard Gehlen, Hitler's
master spy who had built up an intelligence network in the Soviet Union.
With full US blessing, he creates the "Gehlen Organization," a band of
refugee Nazi spies who claim to reactivate their networks in Russia.
These include SS intelligence officers Alfred Six and Emil Augsburg (massacred Jews in the
Holocaust), Klaus Barbie ("Butcher of Lyon"), Otto von Bolschwing
(Holocaust mastermind worked with Eichmann) and SS Colonel Otto Skorzeny
(personal friend of Hitler).
The Gehlen Organization supplies the US
with the only intelligence on the
Soviet Union for the next
ten years and serves as a bridge between the abolishment of the OSS and the
creation of the CIA.
Much of the "intelligence" the former Nazis
provide is bogus.
Gehlen inflates Soviet military capabilities at a
time when Russia is still rebuilding its devastated society, in order to
inflate his own importance to the Americans (who might otherwise punish
him).

"They watched what we did, they watched the
mistakes of George HW Bush
they watched how Clinton stumbled
into it, and they've taken it to an art form." - Michael Deaver,

1992 Pentagon leaks a version of the Defense Policy
Guidance plan or DPG which appears in an article in the
New York Times (Tyler
1992).
The plan lays out a
policy for global US hegemony.
It asserts US policy "requires we
prevent any hostile power from
dominating a region
whose resources would, under
consolidated control, be sufficient to generate global
power.
These regions include
Western Europe,
East Asia, the territory of the
former Soviet Union, and Southwest Asia.
Pentagon officials leaked to
the press that the chief author of the document is
Paul Wolfowitz and
the DPG came to be known as the "Wolfowitz Doctrine."
HW Bush
and his top advisors seek to distance themselves.
Cheney does not
publicly defend the document but behind closed doors he wholeheartedly endorses
it, telling Zalmay Khalizad, the
main writer of the document, "You have discovered a new rationale for our role
in the world." (Hoyle 2008: 50).
The belief the document represented
fringe beliefs of a few neoconservatives led by Wolfowitz has only been
challenged recently by documents declassified in 2008.
The documents
clearly show that the DPG was planned and drafted in full consultation with
Colin Powell,
Dick
Cheney and many other Pentagon officials (Burr 2008).
"For midterm elections, political adviser
Karl Rove wrote a memo to
Republican congressional candidates to use the threat of the
War on Terror to exploit this partisan
divide."
According to Press Secretary
Scott McClellan, Bush had a unique
view of war not as a burden but as an opportunity.
McClellan said in his
memoir, "As I have heard Bush say, only a wartime president is likely to
achieve greatness, in part because the epochal upheavals of war provide the
opportunity for transformative change of the kind Bush hoped to achieve"
(McClellan 2008: 131).
THE WAR LOBBY: IRAQ AND THE PURSUIT OF US
PRIMACY; EDWARD C. DUGGAN, August 2011
The Pentagon
creates the Office of Strategic Influence after 911 to publicize and
generate support for the war
on terror.
New
York Times reports the Office of Strategic Influence is
developing plans to provide 'news' to foreign media to influence public
sentiment and policy.
The Pentagon found a direct way to "gain control"
it bought all commercial satellite images of Afghanistan, to prevent
anyone from accessing them.
"The Bush administration is plagued by more than a
dysfunctional management style.
It has the arrogance to create
a one-party state.
It has
fostered a government-hating radical ideology that has seen people with
contempt for government acting contemptibly in government roles." - Charles
Berezin
February 26,
2002 Donald
Rumsfeld announces the decision by Douglas Feith to close the Office of
Strategic Influence.
"Our responsibility to history is already clear:
to answer these attacks and rid the Earth of evil." - George Walker Bush,

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a
new philosophical ideology to which its author adheres. The author feels that
the falsification of reality outside personal experience has forged a populace
unable to discern propaganda
from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an international
corporate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of
reality on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses
to tolerate religious practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their
religious ideology. This web site marks the founding of a mystery school aptly
named The Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie - a rational gnostic
mystery religion based on reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no
tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and every
individual is encouraged to develop a personal relation with the Creator and
Sustainer through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality in the hope of curing
the spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The
Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on
this web site by the author. Violent acts against individuals due to their
religious beliefs in America is considered a "hate crime."
This web site
in no way condones violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the
violence that is already occurring due to the international corporate cartels
desire to control the human race. The international corporate cartel already
controls the world banking system, corporate media worldwide, the global
industrial military entertainment complex of America and is responsible for the
collapse of morals, the elevation of self-centered behavior and the destruction
of global ecosystems. Civilization is based on coöperation.
Coöperation does not occur at the
point of a gun.
American
social mores and values have declined precipitously over the last century as
the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more power. This power
rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general through corporate media
by pressing emotional buttons which have been preprogrammed into the population
through prior mass media psychological operations. The results have been the
destruction of the family and the destruction of social structures that do not
adhere to the corrupt international elites vision of
a perfect world. Through
distraction and coercion the direction of thought of the bulk of the population
has been directed toward solutions proposed by the corrupt international elite
that further consolidates their power and which further their purposes.
All views and opinions presented on this web site are the views and
