Parte da História de Portugal que ainda deverá estar por contar

12.11.18

[Não tendo eu um grande interesse por este assunto específico, em particular - e, por isso, não sendo minha intenção alguma vez estar a pesquisar sobre o mesmo - venho, em alternativa, tornar aqui pública uma mensagem que enviei a alguém que me é algo próximo e que sei que investiga este tipo de episódios nacionais, para o caso de haver mais alguém que, possivelmente, um dia queira pegar neste assunto...]

 

Assunto: O regicídio de 1908 deverá ter tido mão maçónica por trás

Já há uns anos que eu suspeito disto...

E, na muito boa entrevista a Webster Tarpley, para a qual aponta a hiperligação da minha mensagem anterior [equivalente, neste blogue, à minha anterior colocação] (ficheiro mp3: http://tarpley.net/audio/20140926-WGT_on_GB.mp3) este investigador explica que o assassinato do rei português se inseriu numa (clara) série de assassinatos políticos, naquela época, de líderes que não alinhavam com (os interesses de) o Império Britânico.

Ora, é sabido que:

(1) o regicídio teve mão da Carbonária por trás; e que

(2) a Carbonária tinha ligações à Maçonaria.

E, o que me leva a suspeitar da mão de interesses nefastos por trás do movimento republicano em Portugal, é porque a actuação dos líderes da I República não teve nada de "progressista" - muito pelo contrário. Passando pela participação na estúpida Primeira Guerra Mundial, pela dura repressão dos movimentos operários contra as péssimas condições de vida e pela perseguição à Igreja Católica.

E, o anticlericalismo é, para além de um dos princípios da Carbonária original, que tinha sido fundada em 1822, também uma das características da sociedade dos Illuminati, fundada em 1776, que é sabido controlar agora a Maçonaria.

Ora, juntando os pontos, tudo me leva a suspeitar de mão maçónica por trás deste assassinato político - e também do movimento republicano da época (que terão então sido instigados por a Casa de Bragança não estar sob o controlo do Império Britânico, ao contrário da Maçonaria e seus presumíveis fantoches republicanos - que nomeadamente trataram de enviar "carne para canhão" portuguesa para lutar por interesses britânicos na Primeira Guerra Mundial).

 

[Acrescentado, poucas horas depois: E como, tal como pode ser inferido do que eu disse, a pessoa a quem eu enviei esta mensagem está bem informada sobre este tipo de assuntos... Recebi, logo após tal pessoa ter lido a minha mensagem, a hiperligação para um artigo que fala sobre um livro, que eu desconhecia, intitulado Com permissão de Sua Majestade: Família real inglesa e Maçonaria na instauração da República em Portugal, da autoria de Jorge Morais, que fala exactamente sobre a mão maçónico-britânica por trás do movimento republicano da época, contribuindo ainda mais para a minha (agora muito mais forte) suspeita...]

[Acrescentado a 17/05/2020: Como dizia no início desta colocação, o meu interesse sobre a relação entre Maçonaria e Implantação da República, quando escrevi esta mensagem, não era nada "por aí além". Mas, tendo eu me vindo a aperceber cada vez mais da importância desta sociedade, em particular - e depois de ter feito uma colocação de substancial interesse sobre o assunto - dou-me agora conta de que, quem pesquisar sobre este tema, consegue facilmente encontrar informação que atesta a "mão maçónica por trás (...) do movimento republicano da época", de que eu falava - nomeadamente, se lerem o seguinte artigo, de um director do Centro de História da Universidade de Lisboa, "As sociedades secretas e a revolução".]

[Em vez do tão publicitado livro de um activista luso-angolano, que é obviamente uma tentativa da parte da editora - de fachada do Bloco de Esquerda? - "Tinta da China" de ajudar a derrubar o governo angolano, por estar este agora aliado com o chinês.]

 

Foi escrito há já 24 anos. Sendo que, se havia pouca gente que, na altura, dominasse bem a língua inglesa no nosso país, hoje em dia já todos os elementos das novas gerações têm a obrigação de o fazer. Mas, como foi escrito por um cristão e capitalista - e, como se de um culto se tratasse, devem os militantes do PCP, só por isso, recusar- -se a ler tal livro - hão-de ficar eternamente os adeptos da ideologia comunista no nosso país ignorantes sobre o que realmente se passou...

Who financed Lenin and Trotsky?



Page 123:

The top Communist leaders have never been as hostile to their counterparts in the West, as the rhetoric suggests. They are quite friendly to the world's leading financiers and have worked closely with them, when it suits their purposes. As we shall see in the following section, the Bolshevik revolution actually was financed by wealthy financiers in London and New York. Lenin and Trotsky were on the closest of terms with these moneyed interests both before and after the Revolution. Those hidden liaisons have continued to this day and occasionally pop to the surface, when we discover a David Rockefeller holding confidential meetings with a Mikhail Gorbachev in the absence of government sponsorship or diplomatic purpose.

Pages 263-267:

Chapter 13 - MASQUERADE IN MOSCOW

One of the greatest myths of contemporary history is that the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia was a popular uprising of the downtrodden masses against the hated ruling class of the Tsars. As we shall see, however, the planning, the leadership and especially the financing came entirely from outside Russia, mostly from financiers in Germany, Britain and the United States. Furthermore we shall see, that the Rothschild Formula played a major role in shaping these events.

This amazing story begins with the war between Russia and Japan in 1904. Jacob Schiff, who was head of the New York investment firm Kuhn, Loeb and Company, had raised the capital for large war loans to Japan. It was due to this funding that the Japanese were able to launch a stunning attack against the Russians at Port Arthur and the following year to virtually decimate the Russian fleet. In 1905 the Mikado awarded Jacob Schiff a medal, the Second Order of the Treasure of Japan, in recognition of his important role in that campaign.

Jacob Schiff was head of the New York
investment firm Kuhn, Loeb and Co. He
was one of the principal backers of the
Bolshevik revolution and personally
financed Trotsky's trip from New York
to Russia. He was a major contributor
to Woodrow Wilson's presidential
campaign and an advocate for passage
of the Federal Reserve Act. (p. 210)

 

 

During the two years of hostilities thousands of Russian soldiers and sailors were taken as prisoners. Sources outside of Russia, which were hostile to the Tsarist regime, paid for the printing of Marxist propaganda and had it delivered to the prison camps. Russian-speaking revolutionaries were trained in New York and sent to distribute the pamphlets among the prisoners and to indoctrinate them into rebellion against their own government. When the war was ended, these officers and enlisted men returned home to become virtual seeds of treason against the Tsar. They were to play a major role a few years later in creating mutiny among the military during the Communist takeover of Russia.

TROTSKY WAS A MULTIPLE AGENT

One of the best known Russian revolutionaries at that time was Leon Trotsky. In January of 1916 Trotsky was expelled from France and came to the United States. It has been claimed that his expenses were paid by Jacob Schiff. There is no documentation to substantiate that claim, but the circumstantial evidence does point to a wealthy donor in New York. He remained for several months, while writing for a Russian socialist paper, the Novy Mir (New World) and giving revolutionary speeches at mass meetings in New York City. According to Trotsky himself, on many occasions a chauffeured limousine was placed at his service by a wealthy friend, identified as Dr. M. In his book, My Life, Trotsky wrote:

 

The doctor's wife took my wife and the boys out driving and was very kind to them. But she was a mere mortal, whereas the chauffeur was a magician, a titan, a superman! With the wave of his hand he made the machine obey his slightest command. To sit beside him was the supreme delight. When they went into a tea room, the boys would anxiously demand of their mother, "Why doesn't the chauffeur come in?" (Leon Trotsky: My Life, New York publisher: Scribner's, 1930, p. 277)

 

It must have been a curious sight to see the family of the great socialist radical, defender of the working class, enemy of capitalism, enjoying the pleasures of tea rooms and chauffeurs, the very symbols of capitalist luxury.

On March 23, 1917 a mass meeting was held at Carnegie Hall to celebrate the abdication of Nicolas II, which meant the overthrow of Tsarist rule in Russia. Thousands of socialists, Marxists, nihilists and anarchists attended to cheer the event. The following day there was published on page two of the New York Times a telegram from Jacob Schiff, which had been read to this audience. He expressed regrets, that he could not attend and then described the successful Russian revolution as "...what we had hoped and striven for these long years". ('Mayor Calls Pacifists Traitors', The New York Times, March 24, 1917, p. 2)

In the February 3, 1949 issue of the New York Journal-American Schiff's grandson, John, was quoted by columnist Cholly Knickerbocker as saying that his grandfather had given about $20 million for the triumph of Communism in Russia. (To appraise Schiff's motives for supporting the Bolsheviks, we must remember, that he was a Jew and that Russian Jews had been persecuted under the Tsarist regime. Consequently the Jewish community in America was inclined to support any movement, which sought to topple the Russian government and the Bolsheviks were excellent candidates for the task. As we shall see further along, however, there were also strong financial incentives for Wall Street firms, such as Kuhn, Loeb and Company, of which Schiff was a senior partner, to see the old regime fall into the hands of revolutionaries, who would agree to grant lucrative business concessions in the future in return for financial support today.)

When Trotsky returned to Petrograd in May of 1917 to organize the Bolshevik phase of the Russian Revolution, he carried $10,000 for travel expenses, a generously ample fund considering the value of the dollar at that time. Trotsky was arrested by Canadian and British naval personnel, when the ship, on which he was traveling, the S.S. Kristianiafjord, put in at Halifax. The money in his possession is now a matter of official record. The source of that money has been the focus of much speculation, but the evidence strongly suggests, that its origin was the German government. It was a sound investment.

Trotsky was not arrested on a whim. He was recognized as a threat to the best interests of England, Canada's mother country in the British Commonwealth. Russia was an ally of England in the First World War, which then was raging in Europe. Anything, that would weaken Russia - and that certainly included internal revolution - would be, in effect, to strengthen Germany and weaken England. In New York on the night before his departure Trotsky had given a speech, in which he said: "I am going back to Russia to overthrow the provisional government and stop the war with Germany." (A full report on this meeting had been submitted to the U.S. Military Intelligence. See Senate Document No. 62, 66th Congress, Report and Hearings of the Subcommittee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, 1919, Vol. II, p. 2680.) Trotsky therefore represented a real threat to England's war effort. He was arrested as a German agent and taken as a prisoner of war.

With this in mind we can appreciate the great strength of those mysterious forces both in England and the United States, that intervened on Trotsky's behalf. Immediately telegrams began to come into Halifax from such divergent sources, as an obscure attorney in New York City, from the Canadian Deputy Postmaster-General and even from a high-ranking British military officer, all inquiring into Trotsky's situation and urging his immediate release. The head of the British Secret Service in America at the time was Sir William Wiseman, who, as fate would have it, occupied the apartment directly above the apartment of Edward Mandell House and who had become fast friends with him. House advised Wiseman, that President Wilson wished to have Trotsky released. Wiseman advised his government and the British Admiralty issued orders on April 21st, that Trotsky was to be sent on his way. ('Why Did We Let Trotsky Go? How Canada Lost an Opportunity to Shorten the War', MacLean's magazine, Canada, June 1919. Also see Martin, pp. 163-164.) It was a fateful decision, that would affect not only the outcome of the war, but the future of the entire world.

It would be a mistake to conclude, that Jacob Schiff and Germany were the only players in this drama. Trotsky could not have gone even as far as Halifax without having been granted an American passport and this was accomplished by the personal intervention of President Wilson. Professor Antony Sutton says:

 

President Woodrow Wilson was the fairy godmother, who provided Trotsky with a passport to return to Russia to "carry forward" the revolution... At the same time careful State Department bureaucrats, concerned about such revolutionaries entering Russia, were unilaterally attempting to tighten up passport procedures. (Antony C. Sutton, Ph. D.: Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution, published by Arlington House in New Rochelle, NY, 1974, p. 25)

 

And there were others, as well. In 1911 the St. Louis Dispatch published a cartoon by a Bolshevik named Robert Minor. Minor was later to be arrested in Tsarist Russia for revolutionary activities and in fact was himself bankrolled by famous Wall Street financiers. Since we may safely assume, that he knew his topic well, his cartoon is of great historical importance. It portrays Karl Marx with a book entitled Socialism under his arm, standing amid a cheering crowd on Wall Street. Gathered around and greeting him with enthusiastic handshakes are characters in silk hats identified as John D. Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan, John D. Ryan of National City Bank, Morgan partner George W. Perkins and Teddy Roosevelt, leader of the Progressive Party.

This cartoon by Robert Minor appeared in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch in 1911. It shows Karl Marx surrounded by enthusiastic Wall Street financiers: Morgan partner George Perkins, J.P. Morgan, John Ryan of National City Bank, John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie. Immediately behind Marx is Teddy Roosevelt, leader of the Progressive Party. (p. 211)

 

 

What emerges from this sampling of events is a clear pattern of strong support for Bolshevism coming from the highest financial and political power centers in the United States; from men, who supposedly were "capitalists" and who according to conventional wisdom should have been the mortal enemies of socialism and communism.

Nor was this phenomenon confined to the United States. Trotsky in his book My Life tells of a British financier, who in 1907 gave him a "large loan" to be repaid after the overthrow of the Tsar. Arsene de Goulevitch, who witnessed the Bolshevik Revolution firsthand, has identified both the name of the financier and the amount of the loan. "In private interviews", he said, "I have been told that over 21 million rubles were spent by Lord [Alfred] Milner in financing the Russian Revolution... The financier just mentioned was by no means alone among the British to support the Russian revolution with large financial donations." Another name specifically mentioned by de Goulevitch was that of Sir George Buchanan, the British Ambassador to Russia at the time. (See Arsene de Goulevitch: Czarism and Revolution, published by Omni Publications in Hawthorne, California, no date; rpt. from 1962 French edition, pp. 224, 230)

It was one thing for Americans to undermine Tsarist Russia and thus indirectly help Germany in the war, because American were not then into it, but for British citizens to do so was tantamount to treason. To understand, what higher loyalty compelled these men to betray their battlefield ally and to sacrifice the blood of their own countrymen, we must take a look at the unique organization, to which they belonged.

Pages 274-277:

ROUND TABLE AGENTS IN RUSSIA

In Russia prior to and during the revolution there were many local observers, tourists and newsmen, who reported, that British and American agents were everywhere, particularly in Petrograd, providing money for insurrection. One report said, for example, that British agents were seen handing out 25-rouble notes to the men at the Pavlovski regiment just a few hours, before it mutinied against its officers and sided with the revolution. The subsequent publication of various memoirs and documents made it clear, that this funding was provided by Milner and channeled through Sir George Buchanan, who was the British Ambassador to Russia at the time. (See de Goulevitch, p. 230) It was a repeat of the ploy, that had worked so well for the cabal many times in the past. Round Table members were once again working both sides of the conflict to weaken and topple a target government. Tsar Nicholas had every reason to believe, that since the British were Russia's allies in the war against Germany, British officials would be the last persons on Earth to conspire against him. Yet the British Ambassador himself represented the hidden group, which was financing the regime's downfall.

The Round Table Agents from America did not have the advantage of using the diplomatic service as cover and therefore had to be considerably more ingenious. They came not as diplomats or even as interested businessmen, but disguised as Red Cross officials on a humanitarian mission. The group consisted almost entirely of financiers, lawyers and accountants from New York banks and investment houses. They simply had overpowered the American Red Cross organization with large contributions and in effect purchased a franchise to operate in its name. Professor Sutton tells us:

 

The 1910 [Red Cross] fund-raising campaign for $2 million, for example, was successful only, because it was supported by these wealthy residents of New York City. J.P. Morgan himself contributed $100,000... Henry P. Davison [a Morgan partner] was chairman of the 1910 New York Fund-Raising Committee and later became chairman of the War Council of the American Red Cross... The Red Cross was unable to cope with the demands of World War I, and in effect was taken over by these New York bankers. (Sutton: Revolution, p. 72)

 

For the duration of the war the Red Cross had been made nominally a part of the armed forces and subject to orders from the proper military authorities. It was not clear, who these authorities were and in fact there were never any orders, but the arrangement made it possible for the participants to receive military commissions and wear the uniform of American army officers. The entire expense of the Red Cross Mission in Russia, including the purchase of uniforms, was paid for by the man, who was appointed by President Wilson to become its head, "Colonel" William Boyce Thompson.

Thompson was a classical specimen of the Round Table network. Having begun his career as a speculator in copper mines, he soon moved into the world of high finance. He:

 

  • refinanced the American Woolen Company and the Tobacco Products Company;
  • launched the Cuban Cane Sugar Company;
  • purchased controlling interest in the Pierce Arrow Motor Car Company;
  • organized the Submarine Boat Corporation and the Wright-Martin Aeroplane Company;
  • became a director of the Chicago Rock Island & Pacific Railway, the Magma Arizona Railroad and the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company;
  • was one of the heaviest stockholders in the Chase National Bank;
  • was the agent for J.P. Morgan's British securities operation;
  • became the first full-time director of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the most important bank in the Federal Reserve System;
  • and of course contributed a quarter-million dollars to the Red Cross.

 

When Thompson arrived in Russia, he made it clear, that he was not your typical Red Cross representative. According to Hermann Hagedorn, Thompson's biographer:

 

He deliberately created the kind of setting, which would be expected of an American magnate: established himself in a suite in the Hotel de l'Europe, bought a French limousine, went dutifully to receptions and teas and evinced an interest in objects of art. Society and the diplomats, noting that here was a man of parts and power, began to flock about him. He was entertained at the embassies, at the houses of Kerensky's ministers. It was discovered, that he was a collector and those with antiques to sell fluttered around him offering him miniatures, Dresden china, tapestries, even a palace or two. (Hermann Hagedorn: The Magnate: William Boyce Thompson and His Time, published by Reynal & Hitchcock, New York, 1935, pp. 192-93)

 

When Thompson attended the opera, he was given the imperial box. People on the street called him the American Tsar. And it is not surprising, that according to George Kennan, "He was viewed by the Kerensky authorities as the 'real' ambassador of the United States." (George F. Kennan: Russia Leaves the War: Soviet-American Relations, 1917-1920 published by Princeton University Press in Princeton, NJ, 1956, p. 60)

It is now a matter of record, that Thompson syndicated the purchase on Wall Street of Russian bonds in the amount of ten million roubles. (Hagedorn, p. 192) In addition, he gave over two million roubles to Aleksandr Kerensky for propaganda purposes inside Russia and with J.P. Morgan gave the rouble equivalent of one million dollars to the Bolsheviks for the spreading of revolutionary propaganda outside of Russia, particularly in Germany and Austria. (Sutton: Revolution, pp. 83, 91.) It was the agitation made possible by this funding, that led to the abortive German Spartacus Revolt of 1918. (See article 'W.B. Thompson, Red Cross Donor, Believes Party Misrepresented' in the Washington Post of Feb. 2, 1918) A photograph of the cablegram from Morgan to Thompson advising, that the money had been transferred to the National City Bank branch in Petrograd, is included in this book.

AN OBJECT LESSON IN SOUTH AFRICA

At first it may seem incongruous, that the Morgan group would provide funding for both Kerensky and Lenin. These men may have both been socialist revolutionaries, but they were miles apart in their plans for the future and in fact were bitter competitors for control of the new government. But the tactic of funding both sides in a political contest by then had been refined by members of the Round Table into a fine art. A stunning example of this occurred in South Africa during the outset of the Boer War in 1899.

Dunquerque e Segunda Guerra Mundial explicadas em 5 "tweets"

13.03.18



(Por ser este um filme que ainda não passou nos canais de cinema da TV por cabo, ainda não o vi. Mas, tendo sido realizado por Christopher Nolan, arrisco-me já a "pré-recomendá-lo" - por pensar que será, certamente, mais um bom filme deste realizador, que estou muito curioso em ver.)

Deixo então aqui, a propósito desta obra e da temática de uma colocação que fiz há poucos dias, uma pequena série de 5 tweets que fiz, em resposta a um outro da conta "Crimes of Britain" que se referia à famosa retirada de Dunquerque como um episódio cobarde, por parte dos britânicos.

(Já agora, o que é dito por vários historiadores, que Hitler "deixou" que os britânicos fugissem, é um mito. Pois, tal como melhor explica o historiador David Irving, o que aconteceu foi que, vendo os britânicos encurralados e não como um obstáculo, estavam os alemães mais preocupados em prosseguir com a Blitzkrieg na restante França e deixaram a luta com os britânicos para mais tarde. Pois, não esperavam os alemães que os britânicos fossem retirar, por pensarem que os britânicos estavam realmente interessados em combater os alemães naquela altura. Mas, o que já muita gente sabe, actualmente, é que não era essa a intenção, a médio prazo, dos britânicos... E, quem duvidar do que eu digo nos seguintes tweets, que espreite então o que é dito neste vídeo.)

Os Donos do Dinheiro

11.12.13

Após já 10 anos acumulados de pesquisa sobre esta temática da NOM, continua, ainda hoje, a ser este, não só o melhor documentário que já vi sobre a mesma, mas também, simplesmente, o melhor documentário que já alguma vez vi, em termos dos que mais me abriram os olhos, para o Mundo em que realmente vivo...
Querem saber de que maneira é que os banqueiros nos roubam, a todos? Quem é que mexe alguns dos mais importantes "cordelinhos" na sociedade ocidental que temos? Como têm sido as várias guerras, ao longo da História, manipuladas pelos grandes nomes da finança internacional? E de que modo operam as pessoas por trás de tudo isto?
Vejam, então, este excelente documentário, sobre os chamados "banqueiros internacionais", a sua história e o seu projecto da "Nova Ordem Mundial".
Um muito bem elaborado documentário, que é já uma importante referência, entre os que estão politicamente "acordados", e um que tem sido elogiado por pessoas de renome internacional.
(Assim como, um documentário que, caso tivesse eu de elaborar uma lista de recomendados, seria certamente o que ocuparia a primeira posição de todas...)
São 3 horas e meia, mas, podem fazer como eu e ver em várias partes, ao longo de vários dias.
Acreditem que vale mesmo (imenso) a pena. E, têm muito tempo para o ver, pois, só depois do Natal é que irei voltar a fazer aqui alguma colocação.

(Para quem quiser, deixo aqui uma sinopse deste filme, presente na sua página oficial na Internet.)
