H.G. Wells

Posted in Quotes by burningbabylon on December 29, 2008

“… when the struggle seems to be drifting definitely towards a world social democracy, there may still be very great delays and disappointments before it becomes an efficient and beneficent world system. Countless people … will hate the new world order … and will die protesting against it. When we attempt to evaluate its promise, we have to bear in mind the distress of a generation or so of malcontents, many of them quite gallant and graceful-looking people.” H. G. Wells, in his book entitled The New World Order (1939)

Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent.” Congressman Larry P. McDonald, 1976, killed in the Korean Airlines 747 that was shot down by the Soviets

Top 10 Famous Quotes About Propaganda

Posted in Quotes by burningbabylon on December 22, 2008

Jean Anouilh Image

 

“Propaganda is a soft weapon; hold it in your hands too long, and it will move about like a snake, and strike the other way.”
—Jean Anouilh, L’Alouette, 1952

 

 

George Orwell Image

—George Orwell, Homage to Catalonia, 1938

 

 

Robert A. Heinlein Image

 

“When any government, or any church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, ‘This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,’ the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything—you can’t conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him.”
—Robert A. Heinlein, If This Goes On, 1940

 

 

Hannah Arendt Image

 

“Only the mob and the elite can be attracted by the momentum of totalitarianism itself. The masses have to be won by propaganda.”
—Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism, 1951

 

 

Noam Chomsky Image

 

“Propaganda is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state.”
—Noam Chomsky, Media Control: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda, 1997

 

 

Gore Vidal Image

 

“As societies grow decadent, the language grows decadent, too. Words are used to disguise, not to illuminate, action: You liberate a city by destroying it. Words are used to confuse, so that at election time people will solemnly vote against their own interests.”
Gore Vidal, Imperial America, 2004

 

 

Saul Bellow Image

 

“A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep.”
—Saul Bellow, To Jerusalem and Back, 1976

 

 

Charles Mackay Image

 

“Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.”
—Charles Mackay, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, 1841

 

 

Joseph Conrad Image

 

“He who wants to persuade should put his trust not in the right argument, but in the right word. The power of sound has always been greater than the power of sense.”
—Joseph Conrad, Lord Jim, 1900

 

 

Charles Darwin Image

 

“It is worthy of remark that a belief constantly inculcated during the early years of life, whilst the brain is impressible, appears to acquire almost the nature of an instinct; and the very essence of an instinct is that it is followed independently of reason.”
Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man, 1871

‘A Preconceived Plan To Destroy…The United States’

Posted in Quotes by burningbabylon on December 18, 2008
Letter To The Editor
From Gary Jacobucci
12-17-8
Speaking before Congress in 1957, Nevada Senator George W. Malone stated: “I believe that if the people of this nation fully understood what Congress has done to them over the last 49 years, they would move on Washington; they would not wait for an election….It adds up to a preconceived plan to destroy the economic and social independence of the United States!”
What distinguishes these times from all prior American history is the hubris – the global moneyed fraternity coming out of the shadows and openly declaring dictatorial powers as the solution for the problems they created.
Obama’s the perfect placement for this next phase of the destruction and subsequent communization of America. Foreign born, and a product of the Chicago crime syndicate, he will do what he is told to do. His immediate pick for Chief of Staff was Rahm Israel Immanuel, a duel-citizen of Israel and known for his foul mouth and viciousness toward any opposition.
This administration will play the race card as deftly as Israel plays the anti-Semitism card to get what it wants. There are no Semitic Jews in the power structure of Israel and there are no defenders of the Constitution and the Bill or Rights in the power structure of this incoming administration. Israel will serve as the template for ‘change’.
In the opening salvos, Obama has said that “We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong and just as well funded as the U.S. military.” Emanuel has said “We’re going to have universal civil defense training somewhere between the ages of 18-25. You WILL do 3-months of training, but there can be nothing wrong with ALL Americans having a similar experience.” Obama has proposed a 0-5 pre-school indoctrination program under the guise of free federal day-care to help working mothers.
On 10/12, Colin Powell was rolled out on Meet the Press to tell us; “The problems will always be there; there’s going to be a crisis which will come along on the 21st, 22nd of January that we don’t even know about right now.” Biden made a similar statement to a Seattle fundraiser on the same day. Obviously, somebody knows about it.
With Americans glued to their televisions on 9/11/2001, and believing whatever the television told them to believe, it’s unlikely that many will question the engineered problems that will justify the next phase of destruction. It will be a masterpiece of propaganda and change you will believe in.

How To Read News

Posted in Quotes by burningbabylon on December 15, 2008

We talk often of the crucial need for discernment in attempting to bring the deluge of information confronting us into better focus.
The following definition of ‘discernment’ is excellent. -ed
“The practice of discernment is part of higher consciousness. Discernment is not just a step up from judgement. In life’s curriculum, it is the opposite of judgement. Through judgement a man reveals what he needs to confront and learn. Through discernment, one reveals what he has mastered.”
– Quote from ‘Love Without End’ by Glenda Green

A planet without banking: A happier and better world to live in

Posted in Quotes by burningbabylon on December 13, 2008

“Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money.”
- Sir Josiah Stamp, Director of the Bank of England (in the 1920s); reputed to be the 2nd wealthiest man in England at that time.

Even if it means Blowing up One or Two Synagogues here and there, I don’t care.”

Sun-Tzu Described The US Iraq/Afghan War

Posted in Quotes, commentary by burningbabylon on November 30, 2008
From Dick Allgire
11-29-8
Sun Tzu accurately described the consequences of our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan centuries ago. Just shows we don’t learn from history.
Sun Tzu said:
If the army is exposed to a prolonged campaign, the nation’s resources will not suffice.
When weapons are blunted, and ardor dampened, strength exhausted, and resources depleted, the neighboring rulers will take advantage of these complications.
Then even the wisest of counsels would not be able to avert the consequences that must ensue.
Therefore, I have heard of military campaigns that were clumsy but swift, but I have never seen military campaigns that were skilled but protracted.
No nation has ever benefited from protracted warfare.
Therefore, if one is not fully cognizant of the dangers inherent in doing battle, one cannot fully know the benefits of doing battle.
Those skilled in doing battle do not raise troops twice, or transport provisions three times.
Take equipment from home but take provisions from the enemy.
Then the army will be sufficient in both equipment and provisions.
A nation can be impoverished by the army when it has to supply the army at great distances.
When provisions are transported at great distances, the citizens will be impoverished.
Those in proximity to the army will sell goods at high prices.
When goods are expensive, the citizens’ wealth will be exhausted.
When their wealth is exhausted, the peasantry will be afflicted with increased taxes.
