Most of us have had the experience, either as parents
or youngsters, of trying to discover the "hidden picture" within
another picture in a children's magazine. Usually, you are shown a landscape
with trees, bushes, flowers and other bits of nature. The caption reads
something like this: "Concealed somewhere in this picture is a donkey
pulling a cart with a boy in it. Can you find them?" Try as you might,
usually you could not find the hidden picture until you turned to a page
farther back in the magazine which would reveal how cleverly the artist had
hidden it from us. If we study the landscape, we realize that the whole picture
was painted in such a way as to conceal the real picture within, and once we
see the "real picture," it stands out like the proverbial painful
digit.
We believe the picture painters of the mass media are
artfully creating landscapes for us which deliberately hide the real picture.
Millions of Americans are concerned and frustrated
over mis-happenings in our nation. They feel that something is wrong,
drastically wrong, but because of the picture painters they can't quite put
their fingers on it.
We keep electing new Presidents who seemingly promise
faithfully to halt the worldwide Communist advance, put the blocks to
extravagant government spending, douse the tea of inflation, put the economy on
an even keel, reverse the trend which is turning the country into a moral
sewer, and toss the criminals into the hoosegow where they belong.
Republican or Democrat, continues the same basic
policies of the previous administration which it had so thoroughly denounced
during the election campaign.
FDR once said "In politics, nothing happens by
accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way."
If we were merely dealing with the law of averages,
half of the events affecting our nation's well-being should be good for
America. If we were dealing with mere incompetence, our leaders should
occasionally make a mistake in our favor.
Those who believe that major world events result from
planning are laughed at for believing in the "conspiracy theory of
history." Of course, no one in this modern day and age really believes in
the conspiracy theory of history - except those who have taken the time to
study the subject.
Otherwise, why does every recent administration make
the same mistakes as the previous ones? Why do they repeat the errors of the
past which produce inflation, depressions and war? Why does our State
Department "stumble" from one Communist-aiding "blunder" to
another?
Primarily, most scholars follow the crowd in the
academic world just as most women follow fashions. To buck the tide means
social and professional ostracism. The same is true of the mass media.
Secondly, these people have over the years acquired a
strong vested emotional interest in their own errors. Their intellects and egos
are totally committed to the accidental theory.
Politicians and "intellectuals" are
attracted to the concept that events are propelled by some mysterious tide of
history or happen by accident.
Most intellectuals, pseudo and otherwise, deal with
the conspiratorial theory of history simply by ignoring it. They never attempt
to refute the evidence. It can't be refuted. If and when the silent treatment
doesn't work, these "objective" scholars and mass media opinion
molders resort to personal attacks, ridicule, and satire. The personal attacks
tend to divert attention from the facts which an author or speaker is trying to
expose. The idea is to force the person exposing the conspiracy to stop the
exposure and spend his time and effort defending himself.
However, the most effective weapons used against the
conspiratorial theory of history are ridicule and satire.
The "accidentalists" would have us believe
that ascribing any of our problems to planning is "simplistic" and
all our problems are caused by Poverty, Ignorance and Disease - hereinafter
abbreviated as PID. They ignore the fact that organized conspirators use PID,
real and imagined, as an excuse to build a jail for us all. Most of the world
has been in PID since time immemorial and it takes incredibly superficial
thinking to ascribe the ricocheting of the United States government from one
disaster to another over the past thirty years to PID.
"Accidentalists" ignore the fact that some of the more advanced
nations in the world have been captured by Communists. Czechoslovakia was one
of the world's most modern industrial nations and Cuba had the second highest
per capita income of any nation in Central and South America.
It is not true, however, to state that there are no
members of the intellectual elite who subscribe to the conspiratorial theory of
history. For example, there is Professor Carroll Quigley of the Foreign Service
School at Georgetown University.
He also makes it clear that it is only the network's
secrecy and not their goals to which he objects. Professor Quigley discloses:
"I know of the operations of this network because I have studied it for
twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960's, to examine
its papers and secret records. I HAVE NO AVERSION TO IT OR TO MOST OF ITS AIMS
AND HAVE, FOR MUCH OF MY LIFE, BEEN CLOSE TO IT AND TO MANY OF ITS INSTRUMENTS.
I have objected, both in the past and recently, to a few of its policies…but in
general my chief difference of opinion is that IT WISHES TO REMAIN UNKNOWN, and
I believe its role in history is significant enough to be known."
(Emphasis added)
As Professor Quigley observes: "… his [the
individual's] freedom and choice will be controlled within very narrow
alternatives by the fact that he will be numbered from birth and followed, as a
number, through his educational training, his required military or other public
service, his tax contributions, his health and medical requirements, and his
final retirement and death benefits."
There are also religious leaders who are aware of the
existence of this conspiracy. In a UPI story dated December 27, 1965, Father
Pedro Arrupe, head of the Jesuit Order of the Roman Catholic Church, made the
following charges during his remarks to the Ecumenical Council:
"This…Godless society operates in an extremely
efficient manner at least in its higher levels of leadership. It makes use of
every possible means at its disposal, be they scientific, technical, social or
economic. It follows a perfectly mapped-out strategy. It holds almost complete
sway in international organizations, in financial circles, in the field of mass
communications; press, cinema, radio and television."
Psychological problems are also involved in inducing
people to look at the evidence concerning
the Insiders. People are usually comfortable with
their old beliefs and conceptions. When Columbus told people the world was a
ball and not a pancake, they were highly upset. They were being asked to reject
their way of thinking of a lifetime and adopt a whole new outlook. The
"intellectuals" of the day scoffed at Columbus and people were afraid
they would lose social prestige if they listened to him. Many others just did
not want to believe the world was round. It complicated too many things.
And typical flat-earthers had such a vested interest
involving their own egos, that they heaped abuse on Columbus for challenging
their view of the universe. “Don't confuse us with facts; our minds are made
up," they said. These same factors apply today. Because the Establishment
controls the media, anyone exposing the Insiders will be the recipient of a
continuous fusillade of invective from newspapers, magazines, TV and radio. In
this manner one is threatened with loss of "social respectability" if
he dares broach the idea that there is organization behind any of the problems
currently wracking America. Unfortunately, for many people social status comes
before intellectual honesty. Although they would never admit it social position
is more important to many people than is the survival of freedom in America.

If you ask these people which is more important -
social respectability or saving their children from slavery - they will tell
you the latter, of course. But their actions (or lack of same) speak so much
louder than their words.
They believe that most business and professional men
are too shallow and decadent, too status conscious, too tied up in the problems
of their jobs and businesses to worry about what is going on in politics. These
men are told that it might be bad for business or jeopardize their government
contracts if they take a stand. They have been bribed into silence with their
own tax monies!
We are hoping that the conspirators have
underestimated the courage and patriotism remaining in the American people. We
feel there are a sufficient number of you who are not mesmerized by the
television set, who put God, family and country above social status, who will
band together to expose and destroy the conspiracy of the Insiders.
The philosopher Diogenes scoured the length and
breadth of ancient Greece searching for an honest man. We are scouring the
length and breadth of America in search of hundreds of thousands of
intellectually honest men and women who are willing to investigate facts and
come to logical conclusions - no matter how unpleasant those conclusions may
be.
