<p>Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge was completed in east China's Jiangsu Province in 1968. It is the first double-deck road-rail bridge designed by China. The bridge marked a significant milestone in China's bridge-building history, leaving an indelible mark on the global engineering landscape.

title: Make Alberta America

content:
<p data-sanitized-class="">By Bruce Pardy | American Thinker</p><p data-sanitized-class="">For weeks, President Donald Trump has said that Canada should be America’s 51st state.  He has mocked Canada’s economic dependence on the United States.  He has condemned Canadian tariffs and trade restrictions.  He has scolded Canada’s free riding on American defense.  He has knocked Canada’s porous borders and drug dens.  He has accused Canada of colluding with hostile foreign powers and global institutions. He has trolled our prime minister.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">It’s delightful. Many Canadians are enjoying the show.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">Up here in the cold white north, Trump has set the cat among the pigeons. Canada’s chattering classes are wringing their hands and gnashing their teeth. He has challenged their sense of entitlement. He has exposed their patriotism of convenience and knee-jerk anti-Americanism. He has exposed their haughty righteousness. He has identified rot that Canadian leaders refuse to acknowledge.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">Here is some friendly advice for the president. The 51st state will not be Canada. The Canadian political establishment, largely centered in Ontario and Quebec, will fight it tooth and nail. Their vested interests depend upon the existing federal order of things. Big fish in small ponds will steadfastly refuse to abandon the pond. Canada will not join the United States as a single unit.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">But the country’s provinces are a different matter. Some parts of Canada might be persuaded, one or two at a time, to come stateside. If there is to be a 51st state from north of the border, the best bet is Alberta. Even better would be to <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2025/02/if_trump_wants_canada_here_s_how_he_gets_it.html#commentsSection"><span>adopt two provinces</span></a>, Alberta and Newfoundland, to start.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">Canada has always been an unlikely country. It looks huge on the map, but most of its people live in a ribbon from east to west, close to the U.S. border. Canada is a layer of icing on the American cake. Trade and traffic travel primarily north-south across the border, not east-west within the country. Canada has long had tariff-like trade restrictions even between its own provinces.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">The country is a collection of regions in permanent conflict. Some have legitimate and longstanding grievances. The strongest, wealthiest, and most aggrieved of these is Alberta.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">The quest for liberty is America’s origin story. Its revolution against the British king lies deep in America’s cultural DNA. Canada does not share that foundation. In fact, the Canadian story is the mirror opposite. When the Americans rose up, the Canadians resolved to remain loyal to the king. If you like, Canada’s <em>raison d’être</em> is to oppose the American spirit. But Canada also depends on the United States for its security and fortunes. The result is a fragile national psyche. America’s best friend and ally is also its shrillest critic.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">So it is understandable why politicians in Canada — even in Alberta — have decided, at least for the time being, that their political fortunes depend upon rejecting Trump’s solicitations. Instead, they have elected to wrap themselves in the Canadian flag.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">Albertans, or at least a good number of them, disagree. Some want to become an independent country. A nascent movement to leave Canada has been bubbling in Alberta for a long time. They could start from scratch to draft a constitutional order that would preserve their liberty for the foreseeable future. They could even use the American constitution (not the Canadian one) as a model on which to improve. But many of these Albertans are interested in the potential of joining the United States, too.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">Two weeks ago, I published a <a href="https://www.rightsprobe.org/alberta-declaration-of-independence"><span>declaration of independence for Alberta</span></a>. There is nothing official about it. I’m not even from Alberta; I’m an Ontario boy. Who am I to draft an Alberta Declaration of Independence? The answer is, I’m Canadian, and my compromised, complacent country needs shaking up. If Alberta and other parts of this huge country resolved to separate from Canada, who could blame them? I believe that Alberta would be better off on its own, or as part of the United States.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">Many Albertans appear to agree. <a href="https://x.com/PardyBruce/status/1891180065049940210"><span>On X</span></a> and on my <a href="https://brucepardy.substack.com/p/a-declaration-of-independence-for"><span>Substack</span></a>, they have written the equivalent of “I am Albertan, and I endorse this message.” Of course, that sentiment is not universal. Some strongly oppose any suggestion of leaving Canada. Still more, I would guess, are those in between — unhappy Albertans dissatisfied with the status quo but wary of launching into the great unknown.</p><p data-sanitized-class="">Trump has opened the door. He should invite Alberta in. He should make the people of Alberta an offer, even an informal one, to tell them what potentially lies before them should they support American statehood. He might start with these two promises:</p><p data-sanitized-class=""><strong>1. A State, Not a Territory</strong></p><p data-sanitized-class="">America would welcome Alberta as its 51st state, not as a territory. Trump would urge Congress to pass legislation pursuant to Article VI, Section 3 of the United States Constitution to provide for Alberta’s direct and immediate entry to the Union. It would have all the rights and status of a state of the Union, including two seats in the United States Senate and representation in the House of Representatives in proportion to its population.</p><p data-sanitized-class=""><strong>2. Dollar for dollar</strong></p><p data-sanitized-class="">Upon Alberta’s entry to the Union as a state, the federal government of the United States would recognize, transfer, and exchange Canadian dollars for American dollars on a one-to-one basis, notwithstanding the difference in the value of the currencies. All accounts, financial assets, and legal instruments in Alberta expressed in Canadian dollars would be recognized and honored as American dollars. (Some transitional plan would be necessary to avoid Canada-wide free riding on this windfall.)</p><p data-sanitized-class="">President Trump can make Alberta America — not again, but for the first time.</p><p data-sanitized-class=""><a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2025/03/make_alberta_america.html"><span>For the original version of this commentary, see the publisher’s website here</span></a>.</p><p data-sanitized-class=""><em>Bruce Pardy is executive director of </em><a href="https://www.rightsprobe.org/" target="_blank"><em>Rights Probe</em></a><em> and professor of law at Queen’s University.</em></p>

<p>The Maldives' stunning geography, while a dream for travelers, poses significant healthcare challenges for its residents. Thousands suffer from cataracts, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy, with limited access to treatment due to a shortage of ophthalmologists, especially on outer islands. Since 2016, Chinese medical teams have been transforming lives through the "Bright Journey" initiative, offering free eye screenings and surgeries. In 2020, the China-Maldives International Ophthalmology Center was established, equipped with state-of-the-art technology to enhance local eye care. Over the past decade, seven Chinese medical teams have treated over 6,000 patients and performed 700 surgeries, bringing not only vision but also hope and renewal.</p>

This video emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of the term 'economy,' arguing that it involves the continuous improvement of human development and our interaction with nature. Highlighting the importance of long-term thinking and the creative powers of the human mind, the video challenges common reductionist approaches in science and politics. The discussion also connects these ideas to the pioneering works of historical figures like Johannes Kepler and offers insights into the necessary shift towards more advanced energy sources and innovative scientific methodologies. We encourage viewers to further explore these concepts through additional resources available on the Promethean Action website.\n\nThis is Bruce Director's presentation from Promethean Action &amp; PAC's Founding Conference, June 8, 2024 — https://www.prometheanaction.com/thank-you-a-historic-step-towards-a-renaissance/\n\n00:00 Introduction: The Economy as the Key Issue\n00:44 Defining Economy and Economics\n00:50 Lyndon LaRouche's Economic Theories\n02:44 Human Development and Economics\n06:30 Measuring Economic Progress\n07:21 Energy Flux Density and Economic Decisions\n08:54 The Role of Creative Powers in Economics\n11:14 The Hypothesis of the Higher Hypothesis\n18:16 Challenges in Modern Science and Economics\n26:02 Vladimir Vernadsky's Three Phases of the Universe\n27:43 Conclusion: The Importance of Thought in Economics\n28:31 Final Thoughts and Call to Action","type":"application/x-shockwave-flash","height":390,"width":640,"thumbnails":["https://i2.ytimg.com/vi/IQQKujMbD0o/hqdefault.jpg"]}]}

Instead of relinquishing their failed policies, many European governments are doubling down on their determination to wage a forever war against Russia. The Europeans, along with Zelenskyy, are clearly coordinating attempts to sway Trump away from his determination toward peace, and to create a tripwire for igniting more conflict in Ukraine, as evidenced by a new and ridiculous “coalition of the willing.” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has even called for €800 billion to “rearm Europe.” Whether any of this will actually work is still be seen.\n\nHowever, those most in panic this week are the British, who have long been leading actors in manipulating the great powers to fight each other. While Prime Minister Starmer’s schemes have so far been laughable, the British could still manage to cause significant damage—especially to a Trump administration with as many weaknesses as it has.\n\nIn fact, Trump’s largest Achilles heel may turn out to be the financial system, and in particular his eagerness to dive head-first into the madness of cryptocurrencies. While much of the situation around his announced “strategic crypto reserve” remains unclear, this will only further push the financial system and the treasury market into instability, and could easily ignite the next financial crisis.\n\nOn Tuesday, March 4, the emergency Cairo summit of the Arab nations took place, and participants endorsed Egypt’s proposal for the reconstruction of Gaza. The proposal calls for the massive rebuilding of Gaza, with a view years into the future for a growing and prosperous country—as part of a two-state solution between Palestine and Israel. While the proposal would be substantially improved with the addition of the LaRouche Oasis Plan for massive water desalination and the greening of the deserts, it is a major step in the right direction, and indicates the potential for historic changes in the region and beyond.\n\nZepp-LaRouche noted further that the post-Cold War policy of the unipolar order has completely backfired. “It was the biggest blowback in history you can imagine, where all the elements of this unipolar world—the regime-changes, color revolutions, interventionist wars, weaponization of the dollar—all of that had a gigantic blowback, bringing us to the point of World War III,” she said. The normalization of relations between the U.S. and Russia today could now mean a whole “new start” for a world that has been dominated by British geopolitics.\n\nIf the collapse of this old imperial system can open the way for a new, collaborative relationship between the U.S., Russia, and China, then this opens up the potential for changing the world as a whole. This is the key strategic question today, and represents the seed-crystal for resolving all other problems worldwide.\n\nWe invite you this Friday to the International Peace Coalition with Miguel Cabrera, retired university professor, journalist, and author, as well as other leading peace makers to be announced. Please bring your ideas, proposals and reports for this important discussion.","type":"application/x-shockwave-flash","height":390,"width":640,"thumbnails":["https://i1.ytimg.com/vi/0YBLl6AULnw/hqdefault.jpg"]}]}

title: Ukraine "rare earths" deal: the empire's fatal mistake

<p><a href="https://trendcompass.substack.com/p/whats-the-deal-with-ukraines-rare?r=cpxww">I first wrote about the “rare earths” deal</a> between the US and Ukraine last week, on Tuesday, 25 February and I intended to follow up with this report in a day or two. However, the situation continued to evolve and the rabbit hole presented new discoveries. The affair appears to be a deceitful ploy contrived by the British ruling establishment to lure <strong>Donald Trump</strong> into providing security for Ukraine and ultimately to go to war against Russia. However, this could prove to be the British Empire’s fatal mistake that will probably accelerate its final collapse.</p><h2>The undead empire</h2><p>Yes, the British Empire is still a thing. It’s an undead empire of money, bankers and money laundering; it’s an empire of secret intelligence networks and covert diplomacy; of illicit influence, bribery and corruption; it’s an empire of false narratives and co-opted governments of degenerates, morons and incompetent bureaucrats. It’s a parasite that has infected humanity centuries ago and turned it into a radical perversion of itself. </p><p>It’s also a dying empire, wounded and extremely dangerous as it is prepared to set the world on fire to preserve itself. Today this empire has run up against powerful opposition, not only from Russia, China and other sovereign world powers, but now also from the new administration in the US. The unravelling could span years and will present one of the most investable geopolitical themes out there, but more about that toward the end of this report.</p><h2>The fallout at the White House</h2><p><strong>Volodymyr Zelensky</strong>’s visit to the White House on Friday, 28 February has got to be one of the most extraordinary events in modern history. Zelensky came to Washington, ostensibly to sign the “rare earth” minerals deal with the US, turning over some $500 billion in Ukraine’s resources to American interests. In exchange, Zelensky wanted a security guarantee and continued financial and military support for Ukraine from the United States.</p><p>The joint press conference that preceded the signing ceremony was attended by <strong>President Trump</strong>, Zelensky, vice President <strong>JD Vance</strong> and the Secretary of State <strong>Marco Rubio.</strong> It was the most unfriendly exchange between two heads of state in the living memory. Zelensky irritated his hosts by taking a confrontational stance, talking over them during much of the session and contradicting them in front of the reporters. Apparently, the abrasive conduct continued after the press conference, and President Trump ultimately threw Zelensky out of the White House.</p><p>Subsequently, the President published a statement about the experience on X: </p><blockquote><p>“We had a very meaningful meeting in the White House today. Much was learned that could never be understood without conversation under such fire and pressure. It’s amazing what comes out through emotion, and I have determined that President Zelenskyy is not ready for Peace if America is involved, because he feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in negotiations. I don’t want advantage, I want PEACE. He disrespected the United States of America in its cherished Oval Office. He can come back when he is ready for Peace.”</p></blockquote><h2>What’s the deal with Ukrainian rare earths?</h2><p>So, what was this all about? The saga with Ukraine's rare earth minerals has turned into a kind of bizarre kabuki theater that doesn’t seem to make any rational sense. The whole diplomatic row escalated over the Trump administration's demand that Ukraine turn over those resources to the US in compensation for the military and financial aid the US had already provided to Ukraine. The figure in question, according to Trump, could be $350 billion. In last week's <a href="https://x.com/C__Herridge/status/1892766345760014657">interview with</a> <strong><a href="https://x.com/C__Herridge/status/1892766345760014657">Catherine Herridge</a></strong>, Secretary <strong><a href="https://x.com/AutismCapital/status/1892806427808522684">Marco Rubio explained</a></strong> that Zelensky agreed to this request, only to publicly reject it later:</p><blockquote><p>"We discussed mineral rights with Zelenskyy and said we want to be in a joint venture with you.... We need to be paid back some of the $200 billion in taxpayer money we've given you. He said 'Sure, I need to run it through my legislative process.' I read two days later he's saying he rejected the deal. That's not what happened in that meeting. We're trying to help these guys. Ukraine doesn't directly impact the daily lives of Americans, there should be some gratitude here. When you see him accusing the President of disinformation, that's highly counterproductive. President Trump isn't going to take that. He's not going to get gamed. He hopes Zelensky isn't trying to hustle the United States, that's not going to be productive here."</p></blockquote><p>It seems extraordinary that Zelensky, who is desperate for continued US financial and military support would antagonize President Trump in such a brazen manner, which included insulting him and embarrassing his Secretary of State. The explanation may have emerged from a Czech publication AENews, citing leaks from Ukraine's intelligence. <a href="https://aeronet.news/zelensky-ma-obrovsky-pruser-podle-uniklych-informaci-v-pulce-ledna-prevedl-velkou-cast-nerostneho-bohatstvi-ukrajiny-londynu-v-tajnem-dodatku-100-lete-bezpecnostni-smlouvy-s-velkou-britanii/">AENews reported</a> that Zelensky is unable to cut the deal with the U.S. because he already signed over Ukraine's resource wealth to Britain.</p><h2>The “deal” precedes Trump’s presidency</h2><p>There’s further relevant background to this saga. Some commentators in the West are trying to insinuate that Trump - because he could - decided to take advantage of Ukraine’s misfortune and simply appropriate $500 billion of its resource wealth. That’s not the story, however. Back in late September 2024, two months before the US elections, <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/09/27/us-news/trump-makes-nice-with-zelensky-in-trump-tower-after-accusing-him-of-nasty-little-aspersions-very-good-relationship/">Zelensky paid a visit to Trump in New York and proposed</a> the minerals deal. Perhaps he wanted to win Trump over to Ukraine’s cause just in case he won the elections and became the new president. The $500 billion figure came from Zelensky, not from Trump, and I very much doubt that Zelensky came up with the idea himself.</p><h2>Starmer’s stealth act of piracy</h2><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3c22f17f-4dd3-47ed-a187-02a62ec1a6da_538x304.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3c22f17f-4dd3-47ed-a187-02a62ec1a6da_538x304.png" width="538" height="304" data-attrs='{"src":"https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/3c22f17f-4dd3-47ed-a187-02a62ec1a6da_538x304.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":304,"width":538,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":82208,"alt":null,"title":null,"type":"image/png","href":null,"belowTheFold":true,"topImage":false,"internalRedirect":"https://alexkrainer.substack.com/i/158640042?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3c22f17f-4dd3-47ed-a187-02a62ec1a6da_538x304.png","isProcessing":false}' alt="" loading="lazy" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>To preempt Trump and secure Ukraine’s resources for Britain, <strong>Sir Keir Starmer</strong> rushed to make the deal with Zelensky under the framework of the "<a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/news/one-hundred-year-partnership-agreement-between-the-united-kingdom-of-great-britain-and-northern-ireland-and-ukraine">One Hundred Year Partnership...</a>" The new partnership was signed on 16 January of this year, only four days before Donald Trump's inauguration. In Article 4, the agreement sets out its purpose: to “strengthen conditions for investment and trade … and cooperate across a range of sectors, including but not limited to transport, infrastructure, and energy to make both their economies more modern, resilient and prosperous.”</p><p>According to the intelligence leaks from Ukraine, the agreement includes a secret Appendix, which provides that after the end of hostilities, the UK would gain control of all of Ukraine's ports, power plants, natural gas deposits, storage facilities and pipelines, titanium deposits and more.</p><p>Apparently, Zelensky signed over these resources in exchange for the UK's commitment to Ukraine's security, support for her NATO membership and "<a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/678a3a54d0561c11b91d0576/UK-UKRAINE_100_YEAR_PARTNERSHIP_DECLARATION.pdf">no less than £3 billion a year</a>," for "as long as needed to support Ukraine." Reading through the "One Hundred Year Partnership" agreement makes the allegations made by AENews seem plausible.</p><h2>Britain’s support isn’t likely charity</h2><p>To begin with, it is unlikely that the UK has committed to providing such generous support to Ukraine out of pure charity. AENews dismisses this idea, citing Czechoslovakia’s historical experience with the British government. The Czechs fought for Great Britain in World War I. </p><p>After the war, however, London charged the <strong>Edward Benesh</strong> government [1935-1939] for repayment of all the costs of clothing, gear, food, accommodation, and training of Czechoslovak soldiers. They charged them even for the medical bills of wounded soldiers and for the funerals of fallen ones. There’s no reason to believe that the current British government will prove any more charitable with the future governments of Ukraine.</p><p>Furthermore, the 100-year partnership agreement is not an "entire agreement." Customarily, agreements include the "entire agreement" clause which stipulates that contracting parties' commitments are limited to that which is explicitly spelled out in the signed agreement or specifically listed schedules or addendums. Instead, Article 11 refers to unspecified "further agreements or arrangements as necessary and appropriate to implement this agreement." That implies that there might exist a secret appendix granting the rights to Ukraine’s resources to British interests.</p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe80e0640-93aa-4c2e-87e7-c015dc6851e8_538x304.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe80e0640-93aa-4c2e-87e7-c015dc6851e8_538x304.png" width="538" height="304" data-attrs='{"src":"https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e80e0640-93aa-4c2e-87e7-c015dc6851e8_538x304.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":304,"width":538,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":58702,"alt":null,"title":null,"type":"image/png","href":null,"belowTheFold":true,"topImage":false,"internalRedirect":"https://alexkrainer.substack.com/i/158640042?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe80e0640-93aa-4c2e-87e7-c015dc6851e8_538x304.png","isProcessing":false}' alt="" loading="lazy" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><a href="https://uk.news-pravda.com/uk/2025/01/17/15369.html">According to Pravda News</a> report on 17 January, Zelensky corroborated as much himself: in a video message on Telegram, Zelensky referred to the 100-year partnership stating that, “There is also a closed, secret part of this agreement,” which would add to Ukraine’s “resilience and the opportunity to develop.” Another corroboration came from the British government itself, in their <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/news/uk-and-ukraine-sign-landmark-100-year-partnership-to-deepen-security-ties-and-strengthen-partnership-for-future-generations">16 January press release about the 100-year partnership</a>.

Keir Starmer stated that “Zelensky is not a dictator,” and that it was “perfectly reasonable to suspend elections during wartime, as the UK did during World War II.” To boot, Starmer equated Zelensky with <strong>Winston Churchill</strong>. Even the opposition leader <strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeEY808lxJw">Nigel Farage joined the chorus</a></strong> in defence of Zelensky.</p><h2>Dispatching Boris Johnson - again</h2><p>But by this time the situation got a bit out of control; Zelensky had brazenly rejected the agreement proposed by the U.S., embarrassed Secretary of State Marco Rubio and insulted President Trump. In turn, Trump’s public attack at Zelensky brought the question of his legitimacy to the fore. It was time for damage control and once more London dispatched <strong>Boris Johnson</strong> to Kiev to fix things… He arrived in Keiv for the occasion of the third anniversary of Russia’s Special Military Operation, the 24<sup>th</sup> of February 2025.</p><p>Two things happened almost immediately upon Johnson’s visit: first, Zelensky reversed his prior rejection of the US "rare earths" deal. Second, Ukraine's parliament passed the resolution extending Mr. Zelensky's presidential mandate. That was the lawmakers' second vote on the same resolution: the first time they voted wrong and failed to grant Zelensky legitimacy as Ukraine’s president. </p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F71f6e933-4559-4b09-b0cb-db712976dcc2_921x520.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F71f6e933-4559-4b09-b0cb-db712976dcc2_921x520.png" width="921" height="520" data-attrs='{"src":"https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/71f6e933-4559-4b09-b0cb-db712976dcc2_921x520.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":520,"width":921,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":431216,"alt":null,"title":null,"type":"image/png","href":null,"belowTheFold":true,"topImage":false,"internalRedirect":"https://alexkrainer.substack.com/i/158640042?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F71f6e933-4559-4b09-b0cb-db712976dcc2_921x520.png","isProcessing":false}' alt="" loading="lazy" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Johnson aroused suspicion about his actions in several interviews he gave from Kiev and also from his statements at the <a href="https://x.com/yes_ukraine">Yalta European Strategy forum</a>'s "special gathering," held on 24 February under the slogan, "Three Years - Time to Win." In all these appearances, Johnson delivered pretty much the same talking points. In the process however, he also ran his mouth a bit and revealed much about the British role.</p><p>Now, if we regard Johnson as a bona fide public official, at the very least he might come across as unconvincing. But if you put your street hustler hat on, things seem almost obvious: if anyone tried to hustle you in this way, you'd likely see it coming from miles away. In an early morning <a href="https://x.com/GMB/status/1893931180103205144">interview from Kiev with "Good Morning Britain</a>," Johnson refers to the "rare earth minerals deal," and says what it's for: "…that commits the US not only to future financing of Ukraine but also to a free, sovereign, and secure Ukraine under Donald Trump and that is not to be sneezed at. That's a very, very important commitment and also, as it happens, it spells out in the agreement that Russia is the aggressor in this war."</p><p>Notice, Johnson appears to know quite a bit about the agreement's provisions. He then pretends that this is some really tough deal that confers great benefits to the greedy Americans: "Now, people will say, oh, this deal is extortionate for Ukraine and America is being too rapacious - but not a penny can flow from this investment fund that is going to be set up unless you have a free, sovereign and secure Ukraine." This last statement also makes it obvious why the America’s security guarantee is so important: without it, not a penny can flow westward from Ukraine. As Keir Starmer had conceded, “<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/feb/17/starmer-urges-trump-to-provide-backstop-to-european-peacekeeping-force-in-ukraine">US backstop is vital</a>.”</p><h2>The Americans are so very greedy</h2><p>Asked about whether Zelensky would now reverse his rejection of the draft agreement, Johnson plays dumb: </p><blockquote><p>"It's my hope that they will, I can't be absolutely sure that that is going to happen - various drafts have been floating around over the last few days. The only point that I'm trying to make is that when you look at this deal, when you look at what it says in black and white about the American commitment to Ukraine, to the freedom, sovereignty, and security of Ukraine, when you look at what it envisages for the long term for Ukraine, that's ... economic integration with the West, a big partnership with the most powerful economy in the world, that's positive for a country..."</p></blockquote><p>Notice, Johnson <em>hopes</em>, he doesn't really know, "various drafts have been floating around, " and so on. But then in the very same sentence he displays keen knowledge of specific provisions of the deal that's supposed to be signed between Ukraine and the US. Finally, Johnson takes a contemptuous jab at the designated dupe of the whole hustle, the United States:</p><blockquote><p>"... it is a good deal for the United States as well, but then don't forget what we had to face in 1940-41 with the lend-lease deal - we had to give up a huge amount - bases in the Caribbean, in Newfoundland, Bermuda and so on, we got a lot of rust bucket destroyers in exchange and ... the UK taxpayer stopped paying back the United States for lend-lease in 2006... So, you know, America has a history of demanding a price for its support."</p></blockquote><p>It's all very unfortunate, you see, because the Americans are so unscrupulous and greedy. Poor Ukrainians should just accept that the Americans will shear them good and proper but hey, always look on the bright side of life, says BoJo: "from where I sit today, I think that the price for Ukraine is reasonable."</p><p>And there you have it. It would appear that the British have already secured the lion’s share of Ukraine’s wealth, but it can’t protect it without the Americans doing the dirty work and all the heavy lifting. To get the Americans into the game, the British presented bait in the shape of the "rare earth minerals" deal to be implemented through some future fund from which the US will receive a portion of the proceeds. It is likely that this bait was contrived already in September of last year, when Zelensky first offered the deal to Trump.</p><p>Obviously, the arrangement has a massive downside for the United States: in addition to the cost in blood and treasure of providing security, there would also be the likelihood of a nuclear war with Russia. But the very existence of those rare earths in Ukraine is in doubt. Meanwhile, British interests would snatch most of the loot. Per trade practices that the British have perfected over the centuries, this act of piracy would be so well disguised through secret agreements with designated Ukrainian trustees, corrupt government officials, endless strings of offshore shell companies and the money laundering services from British and European banks, that few would even suspect that British interests were involved at all.</p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffd774c19-f4f9-45ea-a530-2f25ba0b9e01_684x515.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffd774c19-f4f9-45ea-a530-2f25ba0b9e01_684x515.png" width="684" height="515" data-attrs='{"src":"https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/fd774c19-f4f9-45ea-a530-2f25ba0b9e01_684x515.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":515,"width":684,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":331404,"alt":null,"title":null,"type":"image/png","href":null,"belowTheFold":true,"topImage":false,"internalRedirect":"https://alexkrainer.substack.com/i/158640042?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ffd774c19-f4f9-45ea-a530-2f25ba0b9e01_684x515.png","isProcessing":false}' alt="" loading="lazy" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a><figcaption data-sanitized-class="image-caption">As Winston Churchill put it: American brawn for British brains.</figcaption></figure></div><p>I believe that the whole episode reveals the contemptuous attitude towards the United States among the British ruling circles.

But that's a gross distortion of what really happened. As the British historian <strong><a href="https://x.com/irving_books/status/1896661680677064801">David Irving explained in one of his lectures on World War II</a></strong>, it was the British, in fact, who offered chunks of their territories to <em>nudge</em> the US into joining World War II on Britain’s side:</p><blockquote><p>"<strong>Churchill </strong>finally hit on the idea in the middle of 1940, of buying from the United States 50 World War I destroyers which were completely useless, and exchanging them, in fact for valuable pieces of British Empire real estate. He gave to the United States bits of the Caribbean islands that were our colonies, he gave bits of Newfoundland and bits of British Guiana in return for 50 destroyers that were so useless, in fact, that not one saw action in World War II ... This was one of the methods that Churchill was using in an attempt to drag the United States closer and closer to the brink of war. Another method that he used was far more cynical. As he said to Ambassador <strong>Kennedy </strong>…, 'You watch: when<strong> Adolf Hitler</strong> begins bombing London and bombing towns in Britain like Boston and Lincoln, towns with their counterparts in the United States, you Americans will have to come in, won't you? You can't just stand aside and watch us suffering. But he knew ... that Hitler had given orders that no British town was to be bombed. London was completely embargoed. The German Air Force was allowed to bomb ports and harbors and dockyards, but not towns as such. And … on August the 25th, 1940, Churchill gave the order to the British Air Force to go and bomb Berlin. Although the Chief of the Bomber Command and the Chief of Staff of the British Air Force warned him that if we bomb Berlin, Hitler may very well lift the embargo on bombing British towns. And Churchill just twinkled, because it was what he wanted, of course. At 9:15 that morning, he telephoned, personally, the Bomber Command himself, to order the bombing of Berlin - 100 bombers to go and bomb Berlin. And they went out and bombed Berlin that night, and Hitler still didn't move. [Churchill] ordered another raid on Berlin and so it went on for the next seven or ten days until finally on September the 4th Hitler lost his patience and made that famous speech in the Sports Palace in Berlin which he said, ‘this madman has bombed Berlin now seven times. If he bombs Berlin once more, then I shall not only just attack their towns, I shall wipe them out.’ ... A very famous speech. Of course, German schoolchildren are now told about the Hitler speech, they're not told what went first. They're not told how it came about. Churchill sent out deliberately to provoke the bombing of his own capital. And on the following day, Churchill ordered Berlin bombed again."</p></blockquote><h2>The same playbook?</h2><p>What Irving described was the scheming of the British government to draw the United States into war on its side. <strong>Keir Starmer</strong> appears to be following the same playbook: the minerals deal is the hook - the bribe to open the Americans to the possibility of committing to the British agenda. His recent statements corroborate this further: his government is doubling down on support for Ukraine. </p><p>Even though the British military is no match for the Russians, the idea, as Starmer explained, is to show the Americans that Britain is serious. Those troops will be deliberately put in harm’s way as a tripwire to trigger further escalation as their government works to cobble up a "coalition of the willing" to pile in. In addition, they're redoubling public relations efforts to portray Zelensky as a heroic freedom fighter. With all these elements in place, it is not difficult to imagine scenarios that could lead to a serious escalation and set the United States on an irreversible collision course against Russia.</p><h2>What’s the reason for Britain’s deranged Russophobia</h2><p>What could be the reason behind the British establishment’s deranged obsession with vanquishing and dismembering Russia and why do they seem perfectly willing to set the world on fire to achieve that goal? I believe that the answer lies in her natural resources wealth, which dwarfs that of Ukraine. Britain, whose finances are in a catastrophic state, is desperate for fresh collateral to fuel a major new credit cycle needed to refloat its financial system. </p><p>Without Ukraine’s and Russia’s resources, all they have are the printing presses which will turn Britain's stagflation into a hyperinflation and the final collapse of their empire. In fact, that’s almost certainly the most likely outcome of current events. The world has changed since Churchill contrived his own cunning plan. Starmer’s and Johnson’s hustle is almost transparent. Trying it on Donald Trump could turn out to be the undead British Empire’s fatal mistake.</p><h2>A very investable theme</h2><p>Finally, another aspect of this episode that’s worth mentioning is that it could well prove to be one of the most investable themes out there. The fallout from Britain’s conflict with Russia and the United States will likely lead to very substantial market dislocations, including the decline of the British pound and the price of hear sovereign debt. The same almost certainly applies also to European securities and the euro. It would be impossible to predict the timing and magnitude of these events, but the one thing we can be almost certain about is that they’ll unfold over time as trends. </p><p>The most reliable way to navigate such trends is with the aid of well formulated systematic trend following strategies. This, exactly is the reason why I started publishing our Key Markets report this year, providing daily trading signals for 18 key global markets covering the main British, European, and American securities as well as gold and bitcoin – all that for less than $1 a day! </p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe1f2ac15-563c-404c-ba09-9a0ad3f9e604_1024x615.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe1f2ac15-563c-404c-ba09-9a0ad3f9e604_1024x615.png" width="1024" height="615" data-attrs='{"src":"https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e1f2ac15-563c-404c-ba09-9a0ad3f9e604_1024x615.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":615,"width":1024,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":null,"alt":null,"title":null,"type":null,"href":null,"belowTheFold":true,"topImage":false,"internalRedirect":null,"isProcessing":false}' alt="" loading="lazy" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>You can learn more about the <a href="https://isystem-tf.com/trendcompass/">TrendCompass on our webpage</a> and I always strongly recommend reading our TrendCompass <a href="https://isystem-tf.com/trendcompass-user-manual/">User Manual</a> page.

Why would a Presbyterian be advocating for an Israeli land grab, and why did another New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (Roman Catholic) say that God wants the Palestinian territory known as the West Bank to be violently and murderously seized by Israel?  Isn't it of interest that Tenney's caucus has no Jewish members? \n\nIt appears that the Christian Zionists are at least as fanatical as the Israeli ones, and this has NOTHING to do with the relationship between mankind and our Creator, nothing to do with Judaism or Christianity, but is a British-created cult ideology.\n\nThis week, Diane will be joined by Clifford Kiracofe, former Senior Staff Member, U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, and President, Washington Institute for Peace and Development to discuss this peculiar religion to discuss the origin of this ideology and the dangerous impact it has in American politics.","type":"application/x-shockwave-flash","height":390,"width":640,"thumbnails":["https://i4.ytimg.com/vi/KjwJfVdQGPU/hqdefault.jpg"]}]}

<p>Recently, CGTN launched a campaign called “Ask China” and gathered over 90,000 questions about China from other countries, including aspects about livelihood, technology, culture and so on. In this program, the G1 humanoid robot from Unitree Robotics, based in Hangzhou, east China comes to CGTN’s studio to share their story. You might recognize another model from the company, which wowed audiences with a stunning performance at this year's CMG Spring Festival Gala. What surprises do they bring? Let's take a look!</p>

It embodies our precise idea of the nature of man as in the living image of God.\n\nConcluding a vivid one-hour demonstration, LaRouche asked:\n\nAnd this brings us back to the question of Manifest Destiny. Does the United States still have the function, of being a temple of liberty and beacon of hope for these nations of the world? And can we do that by making sure we do it also internally?\n\nCould it be done? Yes, it could be done….\n\nThat is, to spark what's inside us, and must radiate from us, so that we become a true Beacon of Hope and Temple of Liberty for all mankind. . .\n\nThat's what Roosevelt, in his own imperfect way, tried to represent. That's what poor Kennedy, who was assassinated, was groping to try to represent, too. All the best people at least tried to represent that, in their own way.

<p>International Peace Coalition Meeting #92</p>



<p>March 7, 2025 (EIRNS)—The 92nd consecutive online meeting of the International Peace Coalition (IPC) took place on Friday, March 7. Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder of the Schiller Institute, opened the proceedings with a focus on Europe and Ukraine, where “things are going completely haywire.” President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen has announced a “Re-Arm Europe Plan” which will cost €800 billion.</p>



<figure data-sanitized-class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div data-sanitized-class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



<p>Friedrich Merz, projected to be the next Chancellor of Germany, announced the end of the federal budget-limiting “debt brake” in order to have a military budget of €400 billion. (On Feb. 23, Merz’s party, the Christian Democratic Union, won the German federal election with a promise not to undo the debt brake.) The historical precedent for such an action is Nazi Economics Minister Hjalmar Schacht’s “Mefo bills,” which were set up in 1933 to finance purchases from armament manufacturers without leaving a paper trail. It is estimated that it would take up to 100 years for Germany to reach levels of armaments, military production, and troops equivalent to what they possessed in 2004.</p>



<p>There are many implications of United States President Donald Trump’s recent pronouncements, including a possible end to intelligence sharing by the U.S. with the British-dominated Five Eyes intelligence cartel. Although France has its own independent nuclear force, the U.K. is dependent upon U.S. technical support for use of its nuclear weapons.</p>



<p>European leaders, habituated to a litany of “let’s ruin Russia,” cannot adjust to Trump’s nascent peace initiative. If they were smart, they would reflect on how Trump’s election expresses public opposition to the last 35 years of failed neocon “unipolar world” policies.</p>



<p>In Southwest Asia, Egypt’s plan for Gaza reconstruction is “a baby step in the right direction” of the <a href="https://laroucheorganization.com/larouche-plan-southwest-asia" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Oasis Plan</a>. “You don’t get a two-state solution if you don’t change the entire dynamic of the region,” emphasized Zepp-LaRouche.</p>



<p>The next speaker was Dr. Mohammed S. Dajani Daoudi, founder of the Wasatia Movement in Palestine, and director of the Wasatia Graduate Academic Institute. He grew up as a Palestinian in Jerusalem and described how, over time, he switched his attitude from “us or them,” because he “started to see the human side of my enemy” after witnessing Israeli doctors treating Palestinian patients. He said the current problem is that both sides of the conflict want their own state “from the river to the sea,” which is a fantasy. We need a coalition of Israelis and Palestinians for peace. His goal is to create a culture of moderation, which is the meaning of “Wasatia.”</p>



<p><strong>Zelenskyy Goes to London</strong></p>



<p>Garland Nixon, veteran progressive radio and television talk show host, began by saying, “NATO is, shall we say, an imperial project.” He shared some things that are currently being discussed in Europe. For example, MI6 is good at playing divide and rule and setting up puppet governments, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is an MI6 project; “When he got punched around a little by Trump, he goes right to London, and they hug him.”</p>



<p>Nixon listed some developments which can work to the advantage of peace activists. Elon Musk is beginning to release videos of brutal conscription practices in Ukraine. Musk has also promoted a video of U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) boasting that the U.S. was behind the 2014 Maidan coup in Ukraine. He noted that Trump has admitted complicity, in that he provided Javelin missiles to Ukraine, and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio admits it is a proxy war. It must be recognized that the reality of the Ukraine war is complex, not a simple “good guys vs. bad guys” narrative in which former President Joe Biden created the problem and Trump will fix it.</p>



<p>Miguel Cabrera of the Dominican Republic, a journalist, author, former university professor and current host of the weekly TV program “Science, Technology, and Society,” praised Trump’s initiative for peace in Ukraine. He characterized the Trump Presidency as a “light at the end of the tunnel” because he is willing to talk to Russia. He stressed that the Ukraine war is not Russia vs. Ukraine, it is Russia vs. NATO. He also emphasized that Israel has carried out a massacre against Palestinian people. A long-time supporter of the Schiller Institute, he pointed to Lyndon LaRouche’s Oasis Plan as a solution to the Middle East crisis.</p>



<p>Excerpts were aired of an interview conducted by <em>EIR</em>’s Mike Billington with Dr. M.K. Bhadrakumar, a retired career diplomat with India’s Ministry of External Affairs, who held diplomatic positions in the Soviet Union, Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, and Türkiye, where he served as India’s Ambassador. Dr. Bhadrakumar decried the West’s “wanton acts of motiveless malignity and hubris.” In regard to the U.K., he described how British intelligence is able to persuade American officials to believe that British policies are actually their own. Ukrainian attacks on Russian targets are actually planned by British intelligence. Ukrainian leaders who now speak of assassinating Trump were trained by MI6. He presented an unusual perspective that Iran is America’s natural ally in the region; the Iranian elite are pro-Western. The U.S. working with Iran could be as significant as normalization of U.S.-Russian relations.</p>



<p>An unannounced guest was Kirk Wiebe, a former senior intelligence official and whistleblower with the United States National Security Agency. He said that recent events have “set the stage” for the realization of Helga Zepp-LaRouche’s <a href="https://schillerinstitute.com/blog/2022/11/30/ten-principles-of-a-new-international-security-and-development-architecture/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New International Security and Development Architecture</a>. No country today is prepared to go to war; all of our assets are stretched thin. The U.S. has $36 trillion in debt. He sees the possibility of negotiated peace.</p>



<p>In response, Zepp-LaRouche said that it will not be weeks and months, but rather years before Europe will be ready for war. But, contrary to neocon propaganda, there is no proof of any inclination on Russia’s part for a European war.</p>



<p>A participant asked Dr. Dajani how his plea for cooperation can work when the Israelis do not operate in good faith and they have made no concessions. He insisted that there are moderates and extremists on both sides, and we must teach our children to have “a heart of flesh, not a heart of stone.”</p>



<p><strong>Discussion Period: The Continuing Problem of Colonialism</strong></p>



<p>Zepp-LaRouche said that we need to examine the extent to which Western outlook is still colonial. The role of the British is starting to receive scrutiny in this regard, and the powers which instigated the Sykes-Picot Treaty are the ones behind the Ukraine war.</p>



<p>Garland Nixon said that the geopolitical fixation on Russia stems from colonialism: If you’re a colonial power, and you have a parasitic orientation, you are losing your hosts around the world, and Russia is the prize because of its vast resources.</p>



<p>A participant asked whether there are situations where the campaign for peace may come into conflict with the aspirations of colonized peoples, citing as examples Cameroon and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Nixon said he didn’t believe such a conflict were necessary, and that we must look at outside powers involved, keeping in mind the history of colonialism.</p>



<p>Veterans for Peace leader Jack Gilroy praised the Oasis Plan as a template for similar solutions around the world, to which Zepp-LaRouche reminded that in 2014, the Schiller Institute published <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Silk-Road-Becomes-World-Land-Bridge/dp/0943235243" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">“The New Silk Road Becomes the World Land-Bridge”</a> as a blueprint for rebuilding the world.

Instead of Rearming for the Great War, We Need to Create a Global Security Architecture! – by Helga Zepp-LaRouche

content:
<p><em>The following statement was issued March 8 by Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder of the Schiller Institute, for immediate and widespread international circulation and endorsement. It is being issued at a time when Europe is at an historic crossroads, where a different alternative must be urgently put on the table if a catastrophe is to be avoided. We encourage signatures of endorsement from all walks of life to force this issue out into the public debate as quickly as possible.</em></p>

<p>The European Union (EU) and most European governments are in the grips of a war hysteria that can only be compared to the warmongering madness that broke out before World War One. Astronomical sums are slated to be spent on rearmament: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen wants to invest €800 billion(!) in the “Rearm Europe” plan, but by invoking Article 122 of the EU’s Lisbon Treaty to bypass the European Parliament. The likely next German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, who had promised before the [Feb. 23] election that the CDU would not touch the debt brake, now says the exact opposite after the election: he proposes, to begin with, €400 billion(!) for arms buildup, and €500 billion for “infrastructure,” which will largely serve military purposes, but without setting an upper limit (!) for military spending—“Whatever it takes!” as Merz put it. Those are the infamous words Mario Draghi used during the euro crisis to signify that all the money floodgates should be opened. And this at a time when the German physical economy is in free fall, when some European countries are being crushed by gigantic mountains of debt and Europe has already been largely left behind economically.</p>



<p>And why such a sudden fantastic increase in money, as if there were no tomorrow? U.S. President Donald Trump is talking to Russian President Vladimir Putin and wants to bring the Ukraine war, which has long been lost militarily, to an end through negotiation, and thus end the horrific dying of Ukrainians and Russians. At the same time, Trump is pulling the world back from the brink of a thermonuclear world war, from which we were only a hair’s breadth away due to the escalation of the previous U.S. administration.</p>



<p>But rather than congratulating Trump and supporting him, the European Union—which was, after all, the winner of the 2012 Nobel Peace Prize—as well as UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron and Merz are attempting to continue the war in Ukraine “to the last Ukrainian,” even though experts estimate that it has already taken the lives of over one million Ukrainians and around 300,000 Russians.</p>



<p>The Europeans are thus attempting a repeat of the sabotage with which UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson torpedoed the Istanbul agreement between Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in March 2022, which could have ended the war after a few weeks, and so is responsible for all the deaths since then.</p>



<p>At the same time, different secret services in Sweden, Denmark, Germany, etc. are producing forecasts that say Russia will allegedly have built up its military capabilities to such a point by 2029-30 that it will then be able to attack one or more other EU states. This is a purely geopolitically motivated assertion for which there is no evidence whatsoever, but which could turn out to happen if Europe continues to focus on confrontation, on the motto: “What I shout into the forest, will come back as an echo.”</p>



<p>Various institutes, such as the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, point out that neither the German Bundeswehr, nor the British or French armed forces are even remotely capable of engaging in a direct confrontation with the world’s strongest nuclear power—Russia. The Kiel Institute warned, for example, that at current procurement rates, it would take the Bundeswehr up to 100 years to reach the level of its 2004 stocks. The British Army has just 219 tanks, while Russia produces over 1000 per year. The British Royal Air Force has just 173 combat aircraft! Italy has an impressive 150 main battle tanks! Macron’s offer to use French nuclear weapons as a nuclear umbrella for the whole of Europe should be seen as a provocation of Russia more than as actual protection.</p>



<p>Tom Harrington, Professor Emeritus at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, aptly summed up the reaction of Europeans: “If you are a chihuahua and you play a Doberman for many years on TV, you can forget that you’re actually a chihuahua. That can lead to much delusion when the director calls off the production.”</p>



<p>If the EU and the individual European member states now sabotage Trump’s intention to end, together with Russia, the Ukraine war which was a proxy war between the U.S. and Russia from the beginning, then they are making a catastrophic historical mistake. If they then also attempt to finance the enormous lack of military capabilities by creating money outside the regular budgets, they are repeating German Reichsbank President Hjalmar Schacht’s policy of <em>Mefo</em> bills from the 1930s. At that point, the great war with Russia and with all the countries with which Russia is in a strategic partnership would become a self-fulfilling prophecy!</p>



<p>The European establishments have so far failed to reflect on their own strategic mistakes of recent decades, which have led to the current situation so unpleasant for them. Instead of seizing the great historic opportunity presented by the fall of the Berlin Wall and German reunification to establish a peace order that was absolutely possible at the time, all of Europe ended up following the policies of the Anglo-American neocons. Instead of dissolving NATO together with the Warsaw Pact in 1991, the West broke all the promises it had made to Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev and expanded NATO no less than six times—by a total of 1000 kilometers—up to the borders of Russia, thus creating the conditions for a reverse Cuban missile crisis. In addition, the policy of sanctions, regime change and interventionist wars, especially in Southwest Asia, created an enormous backlash throughout the Global South.</p>



<p>But the European establishments have so far been incapable of reflecting on their mistakes out of the obvious fear that it will profit their critics. Faced with the choice of joining Trump’s new U.S. peace policy, they are aligning behind the British policy—and thus the country leading the war policy!</p>



<p>Clearly, the European pro-Atlantic establishments have still not realized that the historical momentum has already shifted massively to Asia. Several nations there have growth rates that the European economy can only dream of. The economic success of China is due to its economic policy, which gives the priority to investment in infrastructure, the real economy, innovation, excellence in education and increased productivity through investment in cutting-edge technologies.</p>



<p>China’s trading partners benefit from this policy, which is based on win-win cooperation, as it is also economically beneficial for China. Organizations such as the BRICS, which now has 19 members and partners and many more hoping to join, as well as ASEAN, SCO, EAEU and others, now represent an attractive alternative to the unipolar “rules-based” order based purely on military alliances and geopolitical interests. Above all, it is by now well known that the application of these “rules” is a highly arbitrary matter.</p>



<p>Europe has reacted to Trump’s sudden signals for an end to the Ukraine war and a resumption of diplomacy with Russia with great panic—and cries for war. But there is still time to correct this potentially fatal course. If Europe wants to overcome its current economic misery, the way out lies in cooperation with the nations of the Global South, which has long since become the Global Majority.</p>



<p>Humanity has reached the point where it must overcome the old patterns of thought steeped in geopolitics and the Cold War and replace them with a new global security and development architecture that takes into account the interests of all nations on this planet. A positive example for this is provided by the Peace of Westphalia, which came about because the warring parties came to the conclusion that if the war continued, no one would be able to enjoy victory, since there would be no survivors. How much more convincing this argument is in times of thermonuclear weapons which, if used, would lead to the extinction of all mankind!</p>

<div><img src="https://brixsweden.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Tariffs_US_China-2.jpg" data-sanitized-class="ff-og-image-inserted"></div><p>Hussein Askary (Vice-Chairman of the Belt and Road Institute in Sweden)</p>
<p><strong>After his election victory in November, President Donald Trump promised to address what he viewed as an ailing U.S. economy as the primary goal of his administration. He also promised in his State of the Union Speech on March 4th to create an economic “golden age” that America has never seen before. However, the U.S. stock market, which he himself has considered as the benchmark for his success, dropped sharply on that day and the following days by more than 10% from its December all-time high. Fears of inflation figures coming out this week could make the bad situation even worse. On Wednesday, March 12, the U.S. consumer price index (CPI) report will be released. The CPI report, which is published monthly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, is a key measure of inflation that tracks the average change over time in prices paid by consumers for a market basket of goods and services.</strong></p>
<p>Just less than two months after his inauguration, Trump’s policies have sparked global trade tensions and a stock-market downturn. Despite promising a golden age, Trump acknowledges potential short-term disruptions and “some pain” due to increased tariffs. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent supports this approach of “no pain, no gain”, suggesting the economy needs a “detox” from public spending. Inflation and economic slowdown are looming, adding to consumer and investor anxiety. Trump’s trade wars have particularly targeted Canada, Mexico (with tariffs up to 25%), and China (20% tariff across the board), causing significant market declines. Despite this, Trump remains hoping for long-term manufacturing growth and dismisses market concerns. But that is still in the realm of wishful thinking rather than objective reality. Last week’s economic data showed modest job growth and a slight rise in unemployment.</p>
<p>American citizens are expressing concern about the impact of the Trump tariffs on consumer prices and. According to a March 8 <span>article</span> in the Washington Post “more than 9 in 10 Americans say they have negative views about food prices, while more than 7 in 10 feel dissatisfied with the incomes of average Americans, according to the Post-Ipsos poll.”</p>
<h6>Why don’t tariffs work anymore?</h6>
<p>“Tariffs on their own do not create more American jobs or lead to more US production. In fact, Trump’s last trade war cost roughly 300,000 jobs. All these new tariffs will do is give corporations cover to jack up prices and pad their profits at our expense,” said Robert Reich, Professor at UC Berkeley and former Secretary of Labor of the United States under President Bill Clinton, in a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/RBReich/posts/pfbid0gbtMY1QcUKWs2ZwUgU1oZ2uUbTXwkZFyN7GmNU2DiqVawWYPoycz6mq5Zts5VpX1l"><span>meme</span></a> on social media on March 4, 2025. This point was illustrated by Professor Yan Liang, a Peter C. and Bonnie S. Kremer Chair of Economics at Willamette University, Oregon, in a recent <a href="https://news.willamette.edu/library/2025/02/wu-pov-tariffs.html"><span>interview</span></a>.<br>“Tariffs are mostly paid by importers who, in turn, pass along the higher import costs to consumers”, she said, adding that “with consumer goods now subject to these new tariffs, American consumers can expect to see price increases on a range of products, including consumer electronics like iPhones and computer equipment”. As is well known, many of the top consumer goods are imported from China. In addition, she emphasized that lower-income families would be hit hardest by the rise of inflation which is generated by these tariffs because spending on consumption of imports which are more affordable constitutes a larger share of their income, and they will be more affected by the tariffs than higher-income families. “Additionally, as about 1/5 of Chinese imports are intermediate goods used in U.S. industrial production, the higher costs of these inputs could increase production costs, which could get passed on to consumers, she concluded.</p>
<p>What will make things even worse is the fact that China, as its economy has gained enormous potency, is now capable of retaliation in kind. On March 3rd, the Chinese Commerce Ministry announced that China will slap new tariffs of up to 15% on top U.S. farm products such as soybeans, chicken, and beef. Farmers are a sensitive political base in the U.S., and the rural areas played an important role in Trump’s election victory. However, there are mixed feelings about Trump’s policies in these areas according to American <a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/03/07/g-s1-52362/tariffs-farmers-trade-china-mexico-canada"><span>reports</span></a>. In the last trade war that Trump started in 2018, U.S. farmers missed up to US$27 billion in lost exports to China. China’s enormous consumer market has now the capability to attract other producers. After 2018, China turned to Brazil and Argentina to replace soybeans produced by American farmers. Last year, a <a href="https://ncga.com/stay-informed/media/in-the-news/article/2024/10/analysis-shows-tariff-induced-trade-war-would-hurt-u-s-farmers"><span>study</span></a> conducted by the American National Corngrowers Association warned that in the event of a new trade war, U.S. soybean exports to China could drop by 51.8%, and U.S. corn exports to China could plummet by 84.3%.” Meanwhile, it stated, Brazil and Argentina would likely increase their exports, gaining valuable market share.</p>
<p>When it comes to manufacturing, China this month imposed tariffs on farm machinery, large-engine cars and pickup trucks. China can replace these goods with China-made ones. China’s farming machinery sector is well advanced now, but it still lacks the soft power and popularity of famous American brands such as John Deer &amp; Co. The latter has <a href="https://www.ttnews.com/articles/deere-tariffs-warning"><span>warned</span></a> recently that while Chinese tariffs on American agricultural machinery might not be very harmful, nonetheless the fact that American farmers could be losing market shares in China would affect the company indirectly as the farmers’ purchasing power will decline and their inventory of farming machinery shrinks. Besides, it is widely admitted that U.S. tariffs on imported steel and aluminium will increase the cost of production of machinery inside the U.S.</p>
<p>Professor Yan stressed that China’s retaliatory action “restricting 25 rare minerals exports, including tungsten and indium, which are essential for electrical and aerospace products” will negatively affect many of these important industries inside the U.S. China has achieved absolute dominance over the rare earth elements’ (RRE) production by 2023, according to a <a href="https://www.oxfordenergy.org/publications/chinas-rare-earths-dominance-and-policy-responses/"><span>study</span></a> conducted by the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies. It stated that “although the REEs are not geologically rare, China dominates the supply chain, accounting for 70% of global rare earth ore extraction and 90% of rare earth ore processing. Notably, China is the only large-scale producer of heavy rare earth ores.” The fact of the matter is that it is not enough to acquire and extract REE deposits as President Trump hopes to do in Ukraine. The processing of these extracted deposits is a delicate and costly factor of production of the final minerals that can be used in industries.</p>
<p>With the world supply chains being extremely entangled today, as we showed in a <a href="https://brixsweden.org/the-entanglement-of-global-supply-chains-why-decoupling-from-china-is-suicide/"><span>previous article</span></a>, it is impossible for any one nation to achieve absolute self-sufficiency and independence in every sector. It is more cost-effective to cooperate and partner with other nations who have a higher leverage in certain areas and need outside input from others. Global common prosperity can be ensured and peace and security built on a firmer foundation. The current trade and tariff wars are not making these goals achievable. Interdependence and co-existence should be self-evident in the world we live in today.</p>

Trump asserted that &quot;Ronald Reagan wanted to do that long ago but the technology just wasn't there..&quot;  But what exactly WAS the proposed technology and intention behind President Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI)?\n\nOn May 31, 1977, LaRouche and his associates published a 40-page pamphlet titled &quot;Sputnik of the Seventies: The Science Behind the Soviets' Beam Weapon&quot; reporting on Soviet breakthroughs in advanced laser physics and their potential military and economic use. LaRouche's subsequent campaign for a crash program for &quot;beam weapon defense&quot; for the United States was what in fact became adopted as President Ronald Reagan's SDI on March 23, 1983. As you'll learn from this week's LaRouche Show video originally produced in 2008, LaRouche's policy was empathically NOT simply a military one, but was meant to be a &quot;Grand Design&quot; crash program akin to NASA's Apollo Program which would also transform the United States' and other nations' economies with revolutionary technologies. As Reagan proposed, these technologies would then also be shared with the Soviet Union to finally make nuclear missiles &quot;impotent and obsolete.&quot; Of course, this would have completely overthrown the post-war Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) globalist policy of Henry Kissinger and his British masters, paving the way for a completely new world strategic and economic development architecture.\n\nWill Trump’s ‘Golden Dome’ finally realize LaRouche’s conception of the SDI?","type":"application/x-shockwave-flash","height":390,"width":640,"thumbnails":["https://i3.ytimg.com/vi/zS_jyyTSsrg/hqdefault.jpg"]}]}

<p>The Belt and Road Institute in Sweden (BRIX) is organizing a webinar to discuss with European and Chinese experts the dramatic changes underway in 2025. These developments, triggered partly by actions taken by President Donald Trump’s Administration, have created possibilities for genuine cooperation and friendship within the global perspective of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The question remains if the EU will take this opportunity to embrace the BRI. This would mean the final abandonment of geopolitically minded zero-sum policies which have separated Europe from Russia and China.  As China’s President Xi Jinping expressed it, the nations of the world find themselves in “one boat”.</p>
<p>There is no question that development in manufacturing and infrastructure combined with these new innovative technologies will continue to grow and expand in those over 150 countries which have agreed to cooperate with the BRI.</p>
<p>If we seize the new opportunities for new technological and economic development, there will be ways for achieving common global peace and prosperity. There exist nonetheless great challenges. How will Europe, the EU, and Sweden respond to these dramatic global changes and challenges? How will Sweden and Europe respond to the emerging and rapidly growing Global South and BRICS? These are the questions we raise in this webinar.</p>
<p>The BRIX members believe that the Belt and Road Initiative is the appropriate framework which can facilitate increased cooperation and dialogue in 2025.  There are specific steps the EU can take to position itself in a more advantageous position than the current precarious one it finds itself in.</p>
<p>Attend this upcoming webinar to find out what these steps are!</p>

<p>Dear Readers, I am continuing my policy of holding accountable whatever government is in office.  Consequently, I upset both Democrats and Republicans, both the liberal-left and conservatives.  If this website is to continue, it must have its readers’ support.  This website does not receive, as some others do, grants from USAID or other federal agencies and departments.  The Rockefeller Foundation, the Ford Foundation, Bill Gates, and George Soros do not look upon  me with favor.</p>
<p><strong>Is President Trump an Israeli Puppet?</strong></p>
<p>Paul Craig Roberts</p>
<p>President Trump has given every indication that he is as concerned with Israel’s interest as he is with the interests of MAGA Americans.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I have expressed the hope that Trump’s sickening kowtowing to Israel is a strategy to keep the Israel Lobby off his back until he can deal with other opponents who stand in the way of his domestic agenda.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I still have this hope, but it has been shaken by the Trump administration’s sacrifice of constitutionally protected free speech in order to protect Israel from criticism.</p>
<p>Last Friday the Epoch Times reported that the Trump administration had cancelled $400 million in federal grants to Columbia University for failing to act on allegations of anti-semitism.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The Trump administration’s “Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism” consists of the departments of Justice, Education, Health and Human Resources, and the General Services Administration.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The members of this task force are well positioned to ingratiate themselves with Israel, which can easily result in well-enumerated positions after their time in government is over.</p>
<p>What does the Trump task force mean by “anti-semitism”?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It means protests against Israel’s destruction of Palestine.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It means that no matter how horrific Israel’s war crimes and no matter the ICC’s indictment of Netanyahu, for students and faculty to protest genocide or mass murder, if Israel is the perpetrator, is “anti-semitic.”  It is OK to protest against other countries, but not against Israel.</p>
<p>Protests against Israel’s actions are equated with harassment and persecution of Jewish students at Columbia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> This equation implies that Jewish Americans identify with Israel and not with the United States. Does an immigrant from England feel harassed and persecuted if Americans protest against England?  </span>President Trump has branded  protests against Israel  “illegal protests.”<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In other words, Trump is saying that the exercise of free speech <em>if Israel is the target</em> is illegal because it is anti-semitic.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Protesters can say whatever they wish about Americans, Russia, China, Muslims, and Palestinians, but not about Israelis. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Trump is also guilty of conflating Israeli citizens with American Jewish citizens.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If Trump applied his Israeli standards to all ethnicities, no one would be able to express any criticism and protest any action by any government.</p>
<p>Trump declared: “All Federal Funding will STOP for any College, School, or University that allows illegal protests. Agitators will be imprisoned or permanently sent back to the country from which they came. American students will be permanently expelled or, depending on … the crime, arrested.”  Trump did not explain how the First Amendment became illegal.  Does his dictate apply to Black Lives Matter and Antifa, to LGBTQ protests?</p>
<p>Do Trump, the DOJ and other departments realize that they have criminalized a constitutionally-protected right if that right is used to protest Israel’s mass slaughter of Palestinians?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In the United States is it now illegal to protest genocide if Israelis are the perpetrators? <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>I was surprised that Columbia, a wealthy private university, was receiving $400 million in US taxpayers’ money.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But it turns out that $400 million is only the tip off the iceberg.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The Epoch Times reports that Columbia “holds about $5 billion in federal grant commitments.”<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>This is big money even for Columbia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In response to the money threat, the university’s administration accepted the Trump administration’s destruction of the First Amendment and quickly got on board with the Trump administration.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Columbia announced that its administration is “fully committed to combatting antisemitism” and “looks forward to ongoing work with the new federal administration to fight antisemitism.”</p>
<p>Trump and his supporters do not recognize the blatant contradiction between suppressing free speech and Making America Great Again.</p>
<p>America’s greatness did not come from tyranny.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>America’s greatness resides in the civil liberties guaranteed by the US Constitution. It is disheartening to find the First Amendment under assault by the Trump regime.</p>

<p>A highlighted Two Sessions. A promising private sector. As China concludes its 14th Five-Year Plan and prepares for the 15th, 2025 ushers in a transformative era focused on green and low-carbon transition, new consumption, and young talent. While challenges remain, the country is aiming at finding ways to motivate private enterprises to play a bigger role in driving technological innovation and industrial upgrades. How can young innovators leverage policies to stay competitive in this process? Stay tuned for a roundtable discussion between CGTN's Wang Guan and a panel of experts, entrepreneurs, and young business leaders.</p>

the books when America decided it was more important to put down London’s Fascist Frankenstein threat than fight Britain head on in WWII.</p><p>The Green agenda’s infiltration into US foreign and energy policy considerations was also driven in large measure through the influence of Canada’s Maurice Strong.</p><p>From 1963-1970, Strong oversaw a vast re-organization of the Liberal Party, even bragging to his biographer Elaine Dewar in 1994 that he was on the selection committee that brought Fabian Society agent Pierre Trudeau into politics in 1963.</p><p>From 1965-1967, Strong ran Canada’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, founded Canada’s International Development Agency (CIDA,) which transformed the philosophy of “international aid” from assisting poor nations to build full-spectrum economies into predatory lending tied to conditionalities. He also mentored a young Klaus Schwab, co-founded the World Economic Forum in 1971, chaired the first UN Forum on Population in 1972, served on the Bilderberg group Steering Committee, and crafted a worldview which became known as ‘The Green New Deal’ and Agenda 21 (launched at the RIO Summit in Brazil in 1992… which he also chaired).</p><p>Today, the spiritual heir of Maurice Strong and the Roundtable Movement is being set up to take control of Canada. I speak, of course, of Mark Carney.</p><h1>Mark Carney’s Genocidal Pedigree</h1><p>The <a href="https://nationalpost.com/opinion/peter-foster-mark-carney-man-of-destiny-arises-to-revolutionize-society-it-wont-be-pleasant?utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email">National Post’s Peter Foster described Mark Carney’s mandate eloquently, writing:</a></p><blockquote><p>“Since the advent of the COVID pandemic, Carney has been front and centre in the promotion of a political agenda known as the “Great Reset,” or the “Green New Deal,” or “Building Back Better.”</p><p>All are predicated on the claim that COVID, and its disruption of the global economy, provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity not just to regulate climate, but to frame a more fair, more diverse, more inclusive, more safe and more woke world.”</p></blockquote><p>Mark Carney can best be described as one of the most important insiders and mascots for the oligarchy, serving as the UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance, former investment banker for Goldman Sachs, World Economic Forum Trustee (alongside fellow Oxford trainee Chrystia Freeland), former governor of the Bank of Canada and then the Bank of England and the Chair of the Financial Stability Board from 2011-2018, where he oversaw the growth of the very derivatives time bomb which was designed to take down the trans Atlantic financial system in a future controlled detonation.</p><p>In 2024, Carney was even made President of the queen of all think tanks: The Royal Institute for International Affairs (aka: Chatham House,) whose American branch was set up in 1921 as ‘The Council on Foreign Relations’.</p><p>This international web of Roundtable think tanks would coordinate several generations of Oxford Rhodes Scholars,<a href="https://www.thelastamericanvagabond.com/towards-church-british-empire-world-government-british-empire-revivalism/"> and would follow the mandate of Cecil Rhodes to create a “church of the British Empire” and recapture the colonies of America that declared independence in 1776.</a></p><h1><strong>Green Bonds and Oligarchs</strong></h1><p>On top of heading the Bank of England, former Goldman Sachs-man Carney has also endorsed the Financial Stability Board’s <em>Task Force on Climate Related Financial Disclosures,</em> which was created in 2015 and was used as a guideline for the UK government’s July 2019 White Paper “<em>Green Finance Strategy: Transforming Finance for a Greener Future</em>“.</p><p>The White Paper proposed to <em>“consolidate the UK’s position as a global hub for green finance and positioning the UK at the head of green financial innovation and data and analytics… endorsed by institutions representing $118 trillion of assets globally”.</em></p><p>The Carney-led Task Force also spawned the <em>Green Finance Initiative</em> in 2016, which is now a primary vehicle designed to <strong>divert international capital flows into green tech</strong>.<br><br>Carney’s former employer at Goldman Sachs has also created a “Green Index for ‘virtuous investing,” including two new sustainability indices to promote heavy investment into green infrastructure, called <a href="https://www.cdp.net/en/articles/investor/cdp-announces-first-global-index-of-top-ranking-environmental-stocks-with-goldman-sachs">CDP Environment EW and CDP Eurozone EW</a>.</p><p>The acronym CDP originates from the <em>Climate Disclosure Project</em> – a London-based think tank that generated Goldman Sachs’ program. Goldman Sachs’ Marine Abiad promoted the CDP index, saying on July 10 <em>“we are convinced that sustainable finance enables financial markets to play a virtuous role in the economy.”</em></p><p>No doubt they are.</p><p>Under the influence of Mark Carney and King Charles, the Bank of England and some of the dirtiest banks in the Rothschild-City of London web of finance have promoted “green financial instruments,” led by Green Bonds to <strong>redirect pension plans and mutual funds towards green projects that no one in their right minds would ever invest in willfully</strong>.</p><p>The <em>Ecological, Social, Governance Index</em> (ESGI) has now been set up across 51% of Germany’s banks, including the derivatives-bomb waiting to blow named Deutschebank.</p><p>Leading bankers supporting the ESGI, like Mark Carney of the Bank of England, have said that over 6.5 trillion Euros could be mobilized under this new index (which currently accounts for about $160 billion).</p><p>The creation of these “green bonds” run hand-in-hand with the Bail-in mechanisms which have now been implemented across the trans-Atlantic nations in order to steal trillions of dollars from pension funds, RRSPs and Mutual funds the next time a bail-out is needed to prop up the “too-big-to-fails,” which currently sit atop a $1.2 trillion derivatives bubble waiting to blow.</p><p>Just in case you thought the Extinction Rebellion was somehow untouched by the hand of social engineers, <strong>a leading figure behind the movement named Alex Evans was a former consultant on Prince Charles’s</strong> <em><strong>International Sustainability Unit</strong></em><strong>, and co-author of the US National Intelligence Council’s</strong> <em><strong><a href="https://www.files.ethz.ch/isn/94769/2008_11_Global_Trends_2025.pdf">Global Trends 2025: A Transformed World</a>,</strong></em> <strong>which became an environmental/foreign policy blueprint for the Obama Administration in 2008</strong>.</p><p>Currently, Evans also runs the <em><a href="https://www.collectivepsychology.org/who/">Collective Psychology Project</a></em>, <em>“where psychology meets politics.”</em></p><p>Other leading British intelligence figures managing the Extinction Rebellion movement included Farhana Yamin and Sam Gaell of Chatham House (the controlling institution behind the New York-based Council on Foreign Relations overseen by Mark Carney).</p><p>How much of a rebellion can it really be… if the rebellion is set up by the establishment?</p><h1><strong>The issue has always been population control.</strong></h1><p>The oligarchs running the “grand green design” since the Club of Rome’s Sir Alexander King began the <em>Limits to Growth</em> study in 1970 knew that green “low-energy flux density” sources of energy would constrict global population, and that is exactly what they wanted.</p><p>Sir King said so much in 1990 <a href="https://archive.org/details/TheFirstGlobalRevolution/page/n1">when he wrote</a>:</p><blockquote><p>“In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill… All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself.”</p></blockquote><p>Sir King was, after all, just following the lead of UNESCO founder (and Eugenics president) Sir Julian Huxley, <a href="https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/f9a5/016e4aafa1d868051e0dbddb04cbe2a25697.pdf">who wrote in 1946</a>:</p><blockquote><p>“Political unification in some sort of world government will be required… Even though… any radical eugenic policy will be for many years politically and psychologically impossible, it will be important for UNESCO to see that the eugenic problem is examined with the greatest care, and that the public mind is informed of the issues at stake so that much that now is unthinkable may at least become thinkable.”</p></blockquote><p>It was only a few years later that Huxley would co-found the World Wildlife Fund alongside Prince Philip Mountbatten and Prince Bernhardt of the Netherlands. <strong>All three were present at Bernhardt’s founding meeting of the Bilderberg group to advance this grand conversion of society into a willful self-extermination</strong> in 1954, and while Huxley wasn’t present in 1970, the other two oligarchs <a href="https://larouchepub.com/eiw/public/1994/eirv21n43-19941028/eirv21n43-19941028_025-the_1001_club_a_nature_trust.pdf">co-founded the 1001 Nature Trust</a> alongside 999 other wealthy misanthropes to fund the blossoming environmental movement.</p><p>These forces were also behind the coup d’état in America, which <a href="https://canadianpatriot.org/2019/08/17/how-the-trilateral-commission-drove-a-bankers-coup-across-america/">put the Trilateral Commission in power</a> under Jimmy Carter and unleashed the <em>“controlled disintegration of the US economy</em>” from 1978-1982 (this will be the topic of another study).</p><p>This grouping, led by Zbigniew Brzezinski, not only played the <a href="http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/opinion/murat-yetkin/we-owe-radical-islamist-militancy-to-brzezinski-113639">radical Islam card against the Soviet Union</a>, but also established a program of population reduction through the promotion of green energy sources long before it was popular.</p><p>Prior to chairing the Rio Summit in 1992 that inaugurated the term ‘sustainable development’ and Agenda 21, Maurice Strong (a 1001 Nature Trust founder, Bilderberger, and VP of the World Wildlife Fund under Prince Philip) mused over the controlled disintegration of society <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140802220453/http:/www.theageoftransitions.com/images/stories/documents/wizard_baca_grande_1990.pdf">when he said:</a></p><blockquote><p>“What if a small group of world leaders were to conclude that the principal risk to the Earth comes from the actions of the rich countries? And if the world is to survive, those rich countries would have to sign an agreement reducing their impact on the environment. Will they do it? The group’s conclusion is ‘no’. The rich countries won’t do it. They won’t change. So, in order to save the planet, the group decides: Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about?”</p></blockquote><p>The oligarchs that are currently trying to ‘reform’ humanity today don’t care about the environment.</p><p>Prince Philip and Bernhard have been recorded to have killed more endangered species on safari than most people have killed mosquitos. <strong>They just don’t like people. Especially thinking people—thinking people who question how and why arbitrary rules are applied to justify wars, poverty and oligarchism which destroys lives both now and in the future</strong>.</p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.ca/Time-Come-Canada-Join-Silk/dp/1792881622">The Belt and Road Initiative </a>and the tendency to grow the human population both quantitatively and qualitatively which such great projects entail is the target of the Green New Deal.</p><p>The legacy of scientific and technological progress that launched Western civilization out of a dark age and into a renaissance in the 15<sup>th</sup> century is under attack because it is that lost ethic which the oligarchy KNOWS may yet be awoken and <strong>which would bring the West into harmony with the Russia-China program for growth and development under a philosophy of “win-win cooperation,” both on Earth and <a href="https://canadianpatriot.org/2019/07/20/space-exploration-and-humanitys-struggle-for-open-system-economics/">also in space</a>.</strong></p><p>The effects of the ideas of the renaissance coincided with the greatest rate of discoveries of universal principles, as mankind sought to come to know the mind of god by studying the book of nature with a heart of love and attitude of humility exemplified in the figure of Leonardo Da Vinci. The explosion of new technologies that arose not only revolutionized astronomy, medicine and engineering, but gave birth to the modern industrial economy, which coincided with the <a href="https://archive.schillerinstitute.com/fid_91-96/934_population_growth.html">greatest rise of population in history</a>.</p><p>This exponential rise has been used by Malthusians for centuries as the proof that mankind is “just another cancerous growth” on the “purity of mother Gaia.”</p><p>So if you don’t agree with the “humans=cancer” philosophy and want something a bit more optimistic in your life, then support <a href="https://youtu.be/TpBh9krAaqc?si=IqCEVlDZExmCNLKk">a real New Deal today.</a></p><p><strong>Matthew Ehret is the editor-in-chief of <a href="https://canadianpatriot.org/">The Canadian Patriot Review</a>, Senior Fellow of the American University in Moscow and Director of <a href="https://risingtidefoundation.net/">the Rising Tide Foundation</a>.

<p><span>In September 2024, I published an article titled</span> <a href="https://matthewehret.substack.com/p/eco-warrior-mark-carney-set-up-to" rel>‘Eco-Warrior Mark Carney: Set up to Replace Trudeau and Usher in Great Reset’</a><span>.</span></p>
<p>Now that Carney has been officially installed as the interim Prime Minister of Canada, I’d like to expand a bit on that thesis and explain how the decision to replace Justin Trudeau with the much more vicious technocrat can only be understood by 1) recognizing the systemic breakdown now at play, and 2) the historic role of the British Empire in using Canada as a weapon against Canadians, and especially Americans going back for over two centuries.</p>

<p><span>When Cecil Rhodes’ Roundtable (founded in 1902)</span> <a href="https://canadianpatriot.org/2022/01/27/origins-of-deep-state-part1/" rel>became a driving force in shaping imperial grand strategy in order to recapture the lost colonies of the Americas and establish a world federation under the City of London,</a> <span>it was Canada that incubated hundreds of Rhodes Scholars between 1907 through 1952, which then infiltrated the USA.</span></p>
<p><span>This fact was exposed by American journalist Eugene Griffin in the 1951 Chicago Tribune article titled:</span> <em>“Canada Offers Fine Field to Rhodes’ Wards,”</em> <span>published as one of a series of 16 explosive articles between July 15-31, 1951 in the Chicago Tribune:</span></p>
<p><em>“Scholars and other British educated Canadians are in a unique position to serve Britain through Canada’s influence on Washington as a next door neighbor of the United States. Canada acts as a connecting link between England and the United States, helping to hold the neighboring republic in line with the dominion’s mother country…</em></p>
<p><em>When Gen. MacArthur displeased Britain and Canada by his efforts to win the Korean war, Canada’s Oxford educated minister for external affairs, Lester B. Pearson, complained that American-Canadian relations had become “difficult and delicate”.</em></p>
<p><em>MacArthur was fired the next day…</em></p>
<p><em>Pearson’s foreign office staff is packed with Rhodes scholars. There are 23 among 183 staff officers, or one out of every eight, who were educated at Oxford university, England, on the scholarships created by Cecil Rhodes, empire builder and diamond mogul who wanted the United States taken back into Britain’s fold …</em></p>
<p><em>Other Canadian foreign office members also were educated in England, although not as Rhodes scholars.</em></p>
<p><em>Pearson went to Oxford (St. John’s, 1922) on a Massey scholarship, endowed by a Canadian millionaire…</em></p>
<p><em>Norman A. Robertson, a Rhodes scholar (Balliol, 1923) sometimes called the most brilliant member of the British trained inner circle in the government’s East Block, headquarters of the prime minister and the foreign office, is another important figure in Canada’s relations with Britain and the United States. He is clerk of the Privy Council and Secretary to the cabinet, and has been undersecretary of state and High Commissioner to Britain.”</em></p>

<p><span>These plans became official US military doctrine in 1930, and were crafted in response to Anglo-Canadian plans to invade the USA that had been drafted ten years earlier (</span><a href="https://www.mprnews.org/story/2015/09/09/bcst-books-thread-canada-invasion" rel>known as Defense Scheme 1</a><span>).</span></p>
<p>Despite the name, it is admitted by even the most ardent anti-American historians that these plans were entirely offensive in nature, as no prior US plan to invade Canada then existed.</p>

<p>War Plan Red was only taken off the books when America decided it was more important to put down London’s Fascist Frankenstein threat than fight Britain head on in WWII.</p>
<p>The Green agenda’s infiltration into US foreign and energy policy considerations was also driven in large measure through the influence of Canada’s Maurice Strong.</p>
<p>From 1963-1970, Strong oversaw a vast re-organization of the Liberal Party, even bragging to his biographer Elaine Dewar in 1994 that he was on the selection committee that brought Fabian Society agent Pierre Trudeau into politics in 1963.</p>
<p>From 1965-1967, Strong ran Canada’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, founded Canada’s International Development Agency (CIDA,) which transformed the philosophy of “international aid” from assisting poor nations to build full-spectrum economies into predatory lending tied to conditionalities. He also mentored a young Klaus Schwab, co-founded the World Economic Forum in 1971, chaired the first UN Forum on Population in 1972, served on the Bilderberg group Steering Committee, and crafted a worldview which became known as ‘The Green New Deal’ and Agenda 21 (launched at the RIO Summit in Brazil in 1992… which he also chaired).</p>
<p>Today, the spiritual heir of Maurice Strong and the Roundtable Movement is being set up to take control of Canada. I speak, of course, of Mark Carney.</p>

<p><span>The</span> <a href="https://nationalpost.com/opinion/peter-foster-mark-carney-man-of-destiny-arises-to-revolutionize-society-it-wont-be-pleasant?utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email" rel>National Post’s Peter Foster described Mark Carney’s mandate eloquently, writing:</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>“Since the advent of the COVID pandemic, Carney has been front and centre in the promotion of a political agenda known as the “Great Reset,” or the “Green New Deal,” or “Building Back Better.”</p>
<p>All are predicated on the claim that COVID, and its disruption of the global economy, provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity not just to regulate climate, but to frame a more fair, more diverse, more inclusive, more safe and more woke world.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Mark Carney can best be described as one of the most important insiders and mascots for the oligarchy, serving as the UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance, former investment banker for Goldman Sachs, World Economic Forum Trustee (alongside fellow Oxford trainee Chrystia Freeland), former governor of the Bank of Canada and then the Bank of England and the Chair of the Financial Stability Board from 2011-2018, where he oversaw the growth of the very derivatives time bomb which was designed to take down the trans Atlantic financial system in a future controlled detonation.</p>
<p>In 2024, Carney was even made President of the queen of all think tanks: The Royal Institute for International Affairs (aka: Chatham House,) whose American branch was set up in 1921 as ‘The Council on Foreign Relations’.</p>
<p><span>This international web of Roundtable think tanks would coordinate several generations of Oxford Rhodes Scholars,</span> <a href="https://www.thelastamericanvagabond.com/towards-church-british-empire-world-government-british-empire-revivalism/" rel>and would follow the mandate of Cecil Rhodes to create a “church of the British Empire” and recapture the colonies of America that declared independence in 1776.</a></p>

<p><span>On top of heading the Bank of England, former Goldman Sachs-man Carney has also endorsed the Financial Stability Board’s</span> <em>Task Force on Climate Related Financial Disclosures,</em> <span>which was created in 2015 and was used as a guideline for the UK government’s July 2019 White Paper “</span><em>Green Finance Strategy: Transforming Finance for a Greener Future</em><span>“.</span></p>
<p><span>The White Paper proposed to</span> <em>“consolidate the UK’s position as a global hub for green finance and positioning the UK at the head of green financial innovation and data and analytics… endorsed by institutions representing $118 trillion of assets globally”.</em></p>
<p><span>The Carney-led Task Force also spawned the</span> <em>Green Finance Initiative</em> <span>in 2016, which is now a primary vehicle designed to</span> <strong>divert international capital flows into green tech</strong><span>.</span></p><p><span>Carney’s former employer at Goldman Sachs has also created a “Green Index for ‘virtuous investing,” including two new sustainability indices to promote heavy investment into green infrastructure, called</span> <a href="https://www.cdp.net/en/articles/investor/cdp-announces-first-global-index-of-top-ranking-environmental-stocks-with-goldman-sachs" rel>CDP Environment EW and CDP Eurozone EW</a><span>.</span></p>
<p><span>The acronym CDP originates from the</span> <em>Climate Disclosure Project</em> <span>– a London-based think tank that generated Goldman Sachs’ program. Goldman Sachs’ Marine Abiad promoted the CDP index, saying on July 10</span> <em>“we are convinced that sustainable finance enables financial markets to play a virtuous role in the economy.”</em></p>
<p>No doubt they are.</p>
<p><span>Under the influence of Mark Carney and King Charles, the Bank of England and some of the dirtiest banks in the Rothschild-City of London web of finance have promoted “green financial instruments,” led by Green Bonds to</span> <strong>redirect pension plans and mutual funds towards green projects that no one in their right minds would ever invest in willfully</strong><span>.</span></p>
<p><span>The</span> <em>Ecological, Social, Governance Index</em> <span>(ESGI) has now been set up across 51% of Germany’s banks, including the derivatives-bomb waiting to blow named Deutschebank.</span></p>
<p>Leading bankers supporting the ESGI, like Mark Carney of the Bank of England, have said that over 6.5 trillion Euros could be mobilized under this new index (which currently accounts for about $160 billion).</p>
<p>The creation of these “green bonds” run hand-in-hand with the Bail-in mechanisms which have now been implemented across the trans-Atlantic nations in order to steal trillions of dollars from pension funds, RRSPs and Mutual funds the next time a bail-out is needed to prop up the “too-big-to-fails,” which currently sit atop a $1.2 trillion derivatives bubble waiting to blow.</p>
<p><span>Just in case you thought the Extinction Rebellion was somehow untouched by the hand of social engineers,</span> <strong>a leading figure behind the movement named Alex Evans was a former consultant on Prince Charles’s</strong> <em><strong>International Sustainability Unit</strong></em><strong>, and co-author of the US National Intelligence Council’s</strong> <em><strong><a href="https://www.files.ethz.ch/isn/94769/2008_11_Global_Trends_2025.pdf" rel>Global Trends 2025: A Transformed World</a><span>,</span></strong></em> <strong>which became an environmental/foreign policy blueprint for the Obama Administration in 2008</strong><span>.</span></p>
<p><span>Currently, Evans also runs the</span> <em><a href="https://www.collectivepsychology.org/who/" rel>Collective Psychology Project</a></em><span>,</span> <em>“where psychology meets politics.”</em></p>
<p>Other leading British intelligence figures managing the Extinction Rebellion movement included Farhana Yamin and Sam Gaell of Chatham House (the controlling institution behind the New York-based Council on Foreign Relations overseen by Mark Carney).</p>
<p>How much of a rebellion can it really be… if the rebellion is set up by the establishment?</p>

<p><span>The oligarchs running the “grand green design” since the Club of Rome’s Sir Alexander King began the</span> <em>Limits to Growth</em> <span>study in 1970 knew that green “low-energy flux density” sources of energy would constrict global population, and that is exactly what they wanted.</span></p>
<p><span>Sir King said so much in 1990</span> <a href="https://archive.org/details/TheFirstGlobalRevolution/page/n1" rel>when he wrote</a><span>:</span></p>
<blockquote>
<p>“In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill… All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p><span>Sir King was, after all, just following the lead of UNESCO founder (and Eugenics president) Sir Julian Huxley,</span> <a href="https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/f9a5/016e4aafa1d868051e0dbddb04cbe2a25697.pdf" rel>who wrote in 1946</a><span>:</span></p>
<blockquote>
<p>“Political unification in some sort of world government will be required… Even though… any radical eugenic policy will be for many years politically and psychologically impossible, it will be important for UNESCO to see that the eugenic problem is examined with the greatest care, and that the public mind is informed of the issues at stake so that much that now is unthinkable may at least become thinkable.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p><span>It was only a few years later that Huxley would co-found the World Wildlife Fund alongside Prince Philip Mountbatten and Prince Bernhardt of the Netherlands.</span> <strong>All three were present at Bernhardt’s founding meeting of the Bilderberg group to advance this grand conversion of society into a willful self-extermination</strong> <span>in 1954, and while Huxley wasn’t present in 1970, the other two oligarchs</span> <a href="https://larouchepub.com/eiw/public/1994/eirv21n43-19941028/eirv21n43-19941028_025-the_1001_club_a_nature_trust.pdf" rel>co-founded the 1001 Nature Trust</a> <span>alongside 999 other wealthy misanthropes to fund the blossoming environmental movement.</span></p>
<p><span>These forces were also behind the coup d’état in America, which</span> <a href="https://canadianpatriot.org/2019/08/17/how-the-trilateral-commission-drove-a-bankers-coup-across-america/" rel>put the Trilateral Commission in power</a> <span>under Jimmy Carter and unleashed the</span> <em>“controlled disintegration of the US economy</em><span>” from 1978-1982 (this will be the topic of another study).</span></p>
<p><span>This grouping, led by Zbigniew Brzezinski, not only played the</span> <a href="http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/opinion/murat-yetkin/we-owe-radical-islamist-militancy-to-brzezinski-113639" rel>radical Islam card against the Soviet Union</a><span>, but also established a program of population reduction through the promotion of green energy sources long before it was popular.</span></p>
<p><span>Prior to chairing the Rio Summit in 1992 that inaugurated the term ‘sustainable development’ and Agenda 21, Maurice Strong (a 1001 Nature Trust founder, Bilderberger, and VP of the World Wildlife Fund under Prince Philip) mused over the controlled disintegration of society</span> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140802220453/http:/www.theageoftransitions.com/images/stories/documents/wizard_baca_grande_1990.pdf" rel>when he said:</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>“What if a small group of world leaders were to conclude that the principal risk to the Earth comes from the actions of the rich countries? And if the world is to survive, those rich countries would have to sign an agreement reducing their impact on the environment. Will they do it? The group’s conclusion is ‘no’. The rich countries won’t do it. They won’t change. So, in order to save the planet, the group decides: Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about?”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The oligarchs that are currently trying to ‘reform’ humanity today don’t care about the environment.</p>
<p><span>Prince Philip and Bernhard have been recorded to have killed more endangered species on safari than most people have killed mosquitos.</span> <strong>They just don’t like people. Especially thinking people—thinking people who question how and why arbitrary rules are applied to justify wars, poverty and oligarchism which destroys lives both now and in the future</strong><span>.</span></p>
<p><a href="https://www.amazon.ca/Time-Come-Canada-Join-Silk/dp/1792881622" rel>The Belt and Road Initiative</a> <span>and the tendency to grow the human population both quantitatively and qualitatively which such great projects entail is the target of the Green New Deal.</span></p>
<p><span>The legacy of scientific and technological progress that launched Western civilization out of a dark age and into a renaissance in the 15</span><sup>th</sup><span>century is under attack because it is that lost ethic which the oligarchy KNOWS may yet be awoken and</span> <strong><span>which would bring the West into harmony with the Russia-China program for growth and development under a philosophy of “win-win cooperation,” both on Earth and</span> <a href="https://canadianpatriot.org/2019/07/20/space-exploration-and-humanitys-struggle-for-open-system-economics/" rel>also in space</a><span>.</span></strong></p>
<p><span>The effects of the ideas of the renaissance coincided with the greatest rate of discoveries of universal principles, as mankind sought to come to know the mind of god by studying the book of nature with a heart of love and attitude of humility exemplified in the figure of Leonardo Da Vinci. The explosion of new technologies that arose not only revolutionized astronomy, medicine and engineering, but gave birth to the modern industrial economy, which coincided with the</span> <a href="https://archive.schillerinstitute.com/fid_91-96/934_population_growth.html" rel>greatest rise of population in history</a><span>.</span></p>
<p>This exponential rise has been used by Malthusians for centuries as the proof that mankind is “just another cancerous growth” on the “purity of mother Gaia.”</p>
<p><span>So if you don’t agree with the “humans=cancer” philosophy and want something a bit more optimistic in your life, then support</span> <a href="https://youtu.be/TpBh9krAaqc?si=IqCEVlDZExmCNLKk" rel>a real New Deal today.</a></p>

<p><em>This article has previously been published in <a href="https://www.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202503/07/WS67ca36cca310c240449d92ed.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">China Daily</a>.</em></p>
<p>Although it has been debunked thoroughly by international experts, the ”China debt-trap” narrative keeps surfacing as a mantra of anti-China campaigns. Most recently, a Swedish member of parliament brought it up in a public debate as part of what he called <em>”China’s aggressive neocolonial operations in Africa”</em>.</p>
<p>While the impact of this narrative has diminished in recent years in the Global South, with more and more nations joining the Belt and Road Initiative, it is being repeated in the West to mobilize forces that consider China’s successful and peaceful rise as a geopolitical threat.</p>
<p>The narrative was launched as part of the first Donald Trump administration’s tool kit to counter the influence of China. In 2018, according to US media reports at the time, the United States Department of State <span><a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/us-state-dept-warns-against-chinas-debt-book-diplomacy-in-indo-pacific/articleshow/64282613.cms">commissioned</a></span> two Harvard University students to<a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/us-state-dept-warns-against-chinas-debt-book-diplomacy-in-indo-pacific/articleshow/64282613.cms" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> <span>write a report</span></a> which was titled ”Debtbook Diplomacy: China’s Strategic Leveraging of its Newfound Economic Influence and the Consequences for US Foreign Policy”.</p>
<p>The Department of State informed the US and international mass media in May 2018 of the report and helped promote it. At the end of 2018, the Department of State even bragged in its financial report to US Congress that ”the department continues to message on this subject, delivering additional high-performing materials, including: <a href="https://www.state.gov/reports/fy-2018-department-of-state-agency-financial-report/collection-of-sidebars/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Harvard study</a> warns of perilous ’debt-trap diplomacy’”.</p>
<p>The Department of State requested more financing for such operations. In 2021, the US Congress responded through <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/senate-bill/1169/text" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">”the Strategic Competition Act of 2021”</a>, allocating $300 million every year from 2022 to 2026 for this purpose.</p>
<p>A major part of the financing will be utilized, according to the text of the Act, to provide <em>”support for local media”</em> stating that <em>”the secretary of state, acting through the assistant secretary of state for democracy, human rights, and labor and in coordination with the administrator of the US Agency for International Development, shall support and train journalists on investigative techniques necessary to ensure public accountability related to the BRI”</em>.</p>
<p>In September 2021, <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/us-plan-to-discredit-chinese-investments-unmasked/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Zimbabwean media</a> revealed that the US embassy in the country was recruiting and financing young activists and journalists to tarnish the investments made by China in the country as harmful to the nation. This made it clear that the anti-BRI propaganda with the debt-trap narrative as its main tool was going into high-gear throughout the world.</p>
<p>A USAID-financed NGO in Serbia made <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/chinese-owned-steel-mill-coats-serbian-town-red-dust-cancer-spreads-2021-11-09/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">global headlines</a> by claiming that cancer rates had risen in Smederevo, a town where a Chinese steel plant was operating. The health authorities in Smederevo later challenged the information presented to the international media by the NGO.</p>
<p>The USAID’s role in financing anti-China and anti-BRI smear campaigns is well documented. It funds NGOs both in the US and abroad to recruit and organize talented ”young leaders ”and ”opinion makers” pumping both finances and disinformation about China’s investments in the Global South through the BRI.</p>
<p>The William &amp; Mary’s Global Research Institute’s so-called information lab, <a href="https://www.aiddata.org/in-the-news/china-infrastructure-drive-traps-poor-nations-with-385-billion-hidden-debt-study" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">AidData</a>, is well known as such a USAID-financed source of disinformation about the BRI. It is not clear how the shutting down of the USAID will impact the channeling of the resources allocated by US Congress to anti-China and anti-BRI operations, but it is a strong blow to such operations according to <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/feb/07/donald-trump-usaid-shutdown-impact-china-relationship-funding" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">some Western media</a>.</p>
<p>The irony is that if the US had used these large amounts of money to do good in Africa through public goods projects rather than tarnishing the BRI and China with disinformation, the US would have had greater soft power in its competition with China.</p>
<p>For example, with the $1.5 billion, the US could build 250 hospitals of the same type as the China-built Mahusekwa Hospital for antenatal care in Mashonaland in Zimbabwe, which cost $6 million.</p>
<p>The same amount could be used to build about 500 level-three hospitals such as the Gachororo Health Centre in Juja, Kenya, a 200-bed facility that cost $3.2 million. However, such win-win thinking does not penetrate the mind of policymakers in Washington who are saturated with the zero-sum game of geopolitics.</p>
<p>There are two ways to deal with the debt-trap narrative: one is to show its fallacies in a systematic and pedagogical way; the other is to develop innovative methods in financing infrastructure along the BRI in addition to the way China has successfully done in the first 10 years. It is a matter of reality that many nations, especially developing countries, are in dire need for infrastructure to release their economic growth potential and sustain it.</p>
<p>Nations are tired of aid programs that have continued for decades without any tangible results in their attempts to eliminate poverty and achieve prosperity.</p>
<p>Regarding the first point, a three-step method of exposing the fallacies of the debt-trap narrative can be adopted so that it can be applied to any country that is alleged to be a victim of a ”Chinese debt-trap”. The three steps are examinations of the composition of the debt of that country, the quality of the debt incurred by that country, and finally the sources of financial instability in that country.</p>
<p>The samples used to develop this method are famous cases singled out by the narrative creators: Sri Lanka, Zambia, Kenya, Pakistan and Montenegro. They show that there is no basis for blaming China for the financial problems of those countries.</p>
<p>As for financing infrastructure in Belt and Road countries, it is imperative to continue the success of the Chinese method of low-interest and long-term loans no matter what the opponents say. But China alone cannot fill the gap of tens of trillions of dollars necessary for developing modern infrastructure in Asia, Africa and South America.</p>
<p>Other actors have to step up and resources have to be pooled. First, nations must develop national financial institutions to mobilize local resources through national ”development banks”.Regional development banks are also advisable. For example, the Arab countries of the Gulf have more than $4 trillion in their sovereign wealth funds.</p>
<p>The Chinese financial markets can also become a source of credit, as has been proven by the Panda bonds that are becoming increasingly popular in developing countries. In addition, bilateral development funds between creditors and debtors can be created in which a small portion of the natural resources of debtor country can be leveraged to generate credit from financial institutions in the creditor nations.</p>
<p>In addition to China’s rise, the BRI is one of the great success stories of the 21st century. It must be promoted and defended against ill-intended and geopolitically motivated attacks such as the ”debt trap ”narrative.</p>

<p>The Hetian Museum, located in Hetian City, Xinjiang, houses over 10,000 cultural relics that systematically showcase the millennia-old civilization of the southern Silk Road. Its treasures include Khotanese Buddhist sculptures, mural fragments, and musical artifacts from the Han and Tang dynasties, reflecting the ancient Kingdom of Khotan's pivotal role in Buddhism's eastward spread. Rare Kharosthi script wooden tablets, Han-era brocades, and Hetian jade carvings—such as luminous mutton-fat jade ritual objects and camel-patterned silk—vividly encapsulate the Silk Road's multicultural legacy. </p>

<p>The  French Despite Clear Warning Brought The Camp of the Saints to France</p>
<p>Will Trump Fail?</p>
<p>Paul Craig Roberts</p>
<p>France is dying.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It is a piecemeal death. One business district at a time.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>One neighborhood at a time. A restaurant, a business, a theater, a hotel here and there.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Each death so sad but survivable. But as the piecemeal deaths mount, they become an aggregate, and now France is dying.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span><a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14479699/migrants-occupied-Paris-theatre-businesses-bankruptcy.html">https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14479699/migrants-occupied-Paris-theatre-businesses-bankruptcy.html</a><span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Jean Raspail warned the French in clear language in 1973 that the open borders acceptance of immigrant-invaders meant the death of France.</p>
<p>Enoch Powell warned the British.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It proved to be impossible to warn  insouciant moronic populations imbued with racist guilt from decades of propagandistic indoctrination.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Enoch Powell was denounced and Jean Raspail ignored.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Marine Le Pen, the only politician in France who stands for the French people, seems headed to prison for stranding up for French ethnics against the immigrant-invaders. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>The same destruction of nation is happening all over Europe, especially in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany and the UK, countries in which the white ethnic female population has no protection against gang rape by immigrant invaders.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>White women are discouraged from reporting their gang rapes, because it is considered racist for a white to initiate action against a black.</p>
<p>This is Europe today.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>A cultural dead zone or a rising new culture based on African and Muslim mores.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>All of my European and English friends tell me: “Don’t come back. It will break your heart. It is not like you remember it.”</p>
<p>But still the tourists go.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>They are shown around the still safe areas and kept from seeing the encroaching barbarity. It is like a sponsored trip to Israel. You are not shown the bad stuff, only the good stuff.</p>
<p>Trump is right.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Europe is a basket case.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Why are Americans supporting an alien culture in Europe to the point of possibly having nuclear war with Russia, a law abiding Christian nation that protects its citizens? <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>The United States should align with the rising powers–Russia and China–not with the decadent and declining countries, none of which are any longer ethnic nations, in Europe.</p>
<p>European governments, who refuse to protect their women from immigrant-invaders, want instead to go to war with Russia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Well, Trump should let them.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The war won’t last long, and we will be rid of Europe.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Europe is dead just like the dead zones in the Gulf of Mexico or is it the Gulf of America where the Mississippi River dumps the chemical fertilizer runoff from commercial agribusiness and other pollutants. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>The United States has the same anti-Western intellectual class as Europe.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>How can Trump address our vulnerability from our internal enemies, which is where our vulnerability lies?  This question leads into a second article:</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>What Should Trump Do?</strong></p>
<p>Trump should end  America’s unconditional support of Israel. To enable genoide with weapons, money, and diplomatic cover is not making America great.  <a href="https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2025/03/10/is-president-trump-an-israeli-puppet/">https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2025/03/10/is-president-trump-an-israeli-puppet/</a> <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>If under Trump Israel maintains or increases its determination of US policy at home and abroad, it is Israel, not America, that will be made great. Is that Trump’s role, to make Israel great?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>American Christian Zionists, none of whom are Christians as they worship Israel, not Christ, say yes.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The position of Christian Zionists is that God’s purpose for America is to protect Israeli Zionism.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>As so many of these are MAGA Americans, who really rules America?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Trump or Israel?</p>
<p>What should Trump do about Ukraine?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  To end the conflict Trump</span> doesn’t need to be holding meetings and talking about meetings with Putin, Zelensky, EU or anyone.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It is extremely simple for Trump to end the conflict as far as the US is concerned. All he has to do is to make the hold he has put on delivery of weapons permanent and withdraw all US operatives in the proxy conflict with Russia.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Without the US supplying weapons, intelligence, targeting information and money to keep the conflict alive, the conflict will quickly end.This is what Trump needs to tell Putin:  “I know Washington is responsible for this conflict.  I am withdrawing Washington’s participation. The conflict would not have happened if the Democrats had not stolen the 2020 election.  I am cancelling the sanctions.  I will be accused by the Democrats and the presstitutes of selling out Ukraine to you. Your job is to be merciful to Ukraine.  As the US is responsible for the conflict, the US will help you to rebuild a demilitarized Ukraine in which economic advancement takes precedent over war. You must not fail my good intentions, or the Cold War will resume.”</p>
<p>Can Trump do this?  Or is Trump compelled by anti-Russian propaganda to force some form of submission from Putin as a demonstration of American power?</p>
<p>If Trump can do what is required, Zelensky will then have to deal with Putin.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>After all, what has it to do with us?<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If the  Europeans want to line up with a loser, let them.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>There is no reason for Trump, whom they hate, to rescue the Europeans. <span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>To demonstrate to Putin that the US proxy war with Russia, started by Zionist Neoconservatives, is over, Trump should immediately remove all sanctions, not only against Russia but against every country.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>This will boost the dollar’s role as the international medium of exchange, save the basis of American power,<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>and reassure the Kremlin that the Cold War is indeed over.</p>
<p>Trump should get off China’s back. It is not China’s fault that Wall Street  drove American manufacturing jobs offshore to China and to other parts of Asia and Mexico.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>This was the greed for profits by lowering labor costs by leaving the American manufacturing working class without remunerative employment and our former manufacturing cities without a tax base. This is what  Wall Street and the corporations did to America. Is it Trump’s role to protect these American adversaries by blaming China? It has never been clear what Trump wants from China.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>He should tells us so that we can assess his intention. As China has jurisdiction over a large segment of US manufacturing which is situated in China, it makes little sense to provoke confrontation with China.</p>
<p>It is Wall Street and the greedy self-serving corporate executives and boards who received huge renumeration for offshoring the jobs of the working class.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>When the products of the offshored jobs come back to the US to be marketed, they come in as imports.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It is the offshored production of American corporations that is the cause of the trade deficit with China. It is not the fault of China.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Why is Trump picking on the wrong source of the problem?</p>
<p>If people in the Trump administration are deceiving Trump about this, he had best replace them.</p>
<p>Being great has moral meaning. It does not suffice to be successful in business, to make successful deals, to avoid wars.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>To be great you have to stand up for Truth.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>You have to stand up for Justice.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>You have to stand up for the US Constitution.</p>
<p>Trump has already abandoned the US Constitution. <a href="https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2025/03/10/is-president-trump-an-israeli-puppet/">https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2025/03/10/is-president-trump-an-israeli-puppet/</a></p>
<p>How long before he abandons truth and justice?</p>
<p>The defense of Israel, whose genocidal government has no concern with any gentile or Muslim’s life, is immoral.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Zionist Israelis’ only concern is with Greater Israel, the expansion of Israel’s borders from the Nile to the Euphrates. The borders of Greater Israel were recently expanded by an Israeli government minister to include a large part of Saudi Arabia. Greater Israel is essentially the Middle East.  Iran is in the way.  Thus Israel agitates for US war with Iran.  Israel and Israel’s American puppets pretend it is about Iranian nuclear weapons.</p>
<p>If Trump enables Israel’s agenda, we will know for certain that he represents Israel, not America.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If Trump turns out to be just another Israeli puppet, it will shatter his supporters belief that America can escape the Satanic evil that is engulfing America.</p>
<p>Lord Acton said that “Power corrupts.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>And absolute power corrupts absolutely.” Trump has power, but not absolute power.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I notice that he enjoys the power that he has. He enjoyed exercising it over Zelenskiy, and Canada, Mexico, and with his dismissals of Europe, and threats to China and with his use of executive orders.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Trump’s enjoyment of power could cause him to be pushy with Putin and thereby fail to end the West’s proxy war against Russia in Ukraine.</p>
<p>Trump enjoys being dominant  on the world scene pronouncing dictates to Zelensky, Europe, China and perhaps Putin also. Withdrawal from foreign distractions and focus on the domestic agenda is the solution. Trump should withdraw America from the conflict, and leave it to Putin and Zelinsaky to resolve.<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space">  If Israel wants to go to war with Iran, Trump should leave America out of it.  Involvement in conflict and foreign wars will put the domestic agenda on the back burner, and we will lose our chance of renewal. No president can deal with domestic issues when he is involved in external conflict, especially with such powers as Russia, China, and Iran.</span></p>
<p>Trump’s enjoyment of  being the mover and shaker on the world scene can easily trap him in distractions that result in his  failure to Make America Great Again.  To clear up the mess that America has become is a full time job.  There is no time or energy left to get involved in the troubles of others.</p>

The Western powers that have dictated global structures for over a century are now in decline. This is a time of massive geopolitical shifts, and new opportunities are emerging for communities that have long been marginalized.  \n\nIn this talk, Shahid Bolsen challenges the status quo and lays out a revolutionary vision: What if African Americans and other so-called minority communities in the U.S. were recognized as part of BRICS? What if they operated as economic extensions of their ancestral nations, leveraging their massive financial power to negotiate directly with countries like China, India, and Brazil?  \n\nThis is not just theory—this is a practical strategy for breaking free from economic dependency and reclaiming financial sovereignty. It’s time to stop being passive consumers and start acting as a sovereign economic force.  \n\n🚀 Topics covered in this talk:  \n🔹 How African Americans qualify for BRICS membership based on economic criteria  \n🔹 Why diaspora communities should engage in direct trade and investment with BRICS nations  \n🔹 The strategic advantages of forming a Diaspora Economic Zone (DEZ)  \n🔹 Practical steps to mobilize and establish economic independence  \n\nNow is the time for bold moves.

Stand Up for Principle: Intervene To ‘Create a Global Security Architecture!’, Live with Helga Zepp-LaRouche, March 12, Noon EDT

<p><iframe loading="lazy" width="928" height="522" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_Fc3dFUhupo" title="Stand Up for Principle: Intervene To ‘Create a Global Security Architecture!’" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin"></iframe></p>


<p>March 10, 2025 (EIRNS)—Changes in all directions are occurring by the day in the world strategic situation, and in people’s everyday lives. One historic pattern to be reckoned with, is the U.S.-Europe hostility. The dramatic feature of this is the mad rush in Europe for militarization—perpetrated in the name of defending Ukraine, and preparing to defend against war from Russia.</p>



<p>Helga Zepp-LaRouche, Schiller Institute founder and leader, noting this today, called the U.S.-Europe breach “worrisome and dangerous.” But she spoke not from the standpoint of recommending returning to the conformity among the nations on both sides of the Atlantic, which has gone on for decades, under horrible British geopolitics. She spoke today from the vantage point of ending that for good. On March 8, Zepp-LaRouche issued a <a href="https://schillerinstitute.nationbuilder.com/instead_of_rearming_for_the_great_war_we_need_to_create_a_global_security_architecture">statement</a> of principle and action through the Schiller Institute titled, “Instead of Rearming for the Great War, We Need To Create a Global Security.” Her appeal warns the nations of Europe that “they are making a catastrophic historical mistake. If they then also attempt to finance the enormous lack of military capabilities by creating money outside the regular budgets, they are repeating German Reichsbank President Hjalmar Schacht’s policy of Mefo bills from the 1930s.”</p>



<p>Zepp-LaRouche’s statement concluded with eight points for action, beginning: “We call on European politicians to come to their senses! Do not repeat the mistakes of the 1930s!”</p>



<p>European circles on the warpath exceed even the wildest science and sociological fiction. Tomorrow in Strasbourg, EU functionaries Ursula von der Leyen, European Union Commission President, and Antonio Costa, European Council President, are to meet with the European Parliament to attempt to cheer them on for the mad EU “Rearm Europe” plan, mandating $860 billion in new arms funding, for Europe and Ukraine, to stand up against Russia. On March 20-21 the leaders of 27 EU countries are to have their second meeting on this multi-billion euro commitment in Brussels, likely with Volodymyr Zelenskyy on hand, Acting President of Ukraine.</p>



<p>This flight forward occurs at the very same time as the breakdown of Ukraine forces in the field is worsening rapidly. In its Kursk region, Russian forces have encircled some 6-10,000 Ukrainian incursion soldiers in a “cauldron” at Sudzha. The Russians conducted a surprise move to enter through nine miles of empty underground gas pipelines.</p>



<p>A meeting will take place tomorrow, March 11, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, between Ukrainian and U.S. delegations. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio leads the Americans. Acting Ukrainian President Zelenskyy will be accompanied by Andriy Yermak, head of the Office of the Presidency.</p>



<p>The Schiller Institute posting of the Zepp-LaRouche March 8 “Global Security Architecture” statement, has a signature page for endorsements, and also welcomes any and all other initiatives acting in the same spirit and principles. For example, on March 9 in France, a statement was issued by former military officers and by sovereignists, opposing the extending and sharing of the French nuclear force, which French President Emmanuel Macron is proposing. Their <a href="https://eir.news/2025/03/news/france-sovereignist-and-former-military-officers-oppose-sharing-french-nuclear-deterrence/">statement</a> is titled, “Nuclear Deterrence, in Essence, Is the Expression of a National Will and Cannot Be Shared.”</p>



<p>The Schiller Institute posting introduces Mrs. LaRouche’s statement as, “for immediate and widespread international circulation. It is being issued at a time when Europe is at an historic crossroads, where a different alternative must be urgently put on the table if a catastrophe is to be avoided. We encourage signatures of endorsement from all walks of life to force this issue out into the public debate as quickly as possible.”</p>

Зафіксовано<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span> тисячі смертей у всіх регіонах, що знаходяться під контролем екстремістського ісламського руху Хаят Тахрір аль-Шам (Організація звільнення Леванту), пов’язаного з терористичною групою Аль-Каїда.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Причини<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span> переслідування цих двох меншин з боку сирійського уряду слід шукати, насамперед, у зміні режиму, яку ініціювала попередня американська адміністрація за згодою<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span> НАТО та Європейського Союзу. Усунення президента Башара аль-Асада та приведення до влади Абу Мухаммеда аль-Джолані (партію якого, до вчорашнього дня, Держдепартамент США вважав терористичною організацією) неминуче призвели до геноциду алавітів і сирійських християн.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Цей геноцид відбувається сьогодні на наших очах, при мовчазній згоді парламентів «демократичних» країн і «католицької» ієрархії, підпорядкованої інтересам глобалізму.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">У містах і селах по-варварськи вбивають наших братів-християн.

І в той час, як воєнне божевілля високого міжнародного фінансування намагається переконати Європейські країни фінансувати переозброєння проти Російської Федерації та бути готовими пожертвувати нашими дітьми в безрозсудній та підступній війні, на сирійському фронті (але також на фронті в Газі, де інші християни стали об’єктами етнічної чистки) ієрархи глобалізму свідомо мовчать, і навіть, ставлять себе поряд злочинного терориста, якому загрожувала<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span> винагорода в десять мільйонів доларів.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Саме з глобалістської глибинної держави в Сполучених Штатах виникає це нове вогнище насильства та винищення: тому саме<span data-sanitized-class="Apple-converted-space"> </span> Сполучені Штати мають розпочати дії, спрямовані на припинення геноциду християн та інших меншин у Сирії. На їхньому боці мають стояти всі, хто визнає Господа нашого Ісуса Христа єдиним Спасителем, як окремі особи, так і суспільства та нації.</span></p>

Ті сцени нелюдського насильства та жорстокості, які ми бачимо у віддалених країнах, завтра можуть повторитися в наших країнах, які через зраду корумпованих керівників спричинили вторгнення орди фанатичних мусульман військового віку, щоб нав’язати Європі етнічну заміну та остаточне знищення християнської цивілізації.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">У ці дні Святого посту, я закликаю всіх католиків молитися, постити та чинити покаяння, щоб випросити з Неба захисту для вірних, які зазнають переслідування і мученицької смерті у Сирії, Газі та в багатьох інших частинах світу. Нехай їхній приклад героїчної стійкості в ісповідуванні правдивої віри надихне, поки не пізно, до пробудження сумління християн і повернення до Бога, від Якого залежить мир, злагода та процвітання народів. <em>Deus vult!</em></span></p>

<div><img src="https://exsurgedomine.it/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/miniatura-250312-esp.jpg" data-sanitized-class="ff-og-image-inserted"></div><p>En los últimos días ha experimentado un recrudecimiento sin precedentes la violencia y los asesinatos masivos contra cristianos y alauitas en Siria, con miles de muertes en todas las regiones que están bajo el control del movimiento extremista islámico <em>Hayat Tahrir al-Sham </em>(Organización para la Liberación del Levante), afiliado al grupo terrorista al-Qaeda.</p>
<p>Las razones de esta persecución de las dos minorías por parte del gobierno sirio hay que buscarlas, en primer lugar, en  el <em>cambio de régimen </em>querido por la anterior administración estadounidense, en acuerdo con la OTAN y la Unión Europea. El derrocamiento del presidente Bashar al-Assad y la instalación de Abu Mohammed al-Jolani (cuyo partido era considerado hasta ayer por el Departamento de Estado de Estados Unidos como una organización terrorista) han conducido inevitablemente al genocidio de alauitas y cristianos sirios.</p>
<p>Este genocidio tiene lugar hoy ante nuestros ojos, en medio del silencio de los parlamentos de las naciones “democráticas” y de una jerarquía “católica” sometida a los intereses del globalismo.</p>
<p>Nuestros hermanos cristianos son bárbaramente asesinados en las ciudades y en las aldeas. Ancianos, mujeres y niños son crucificados y masacrados solo a causa de su fe: una fe que décadas de compromisos y concesiones han borrado casi por completo en los países occidentales y especialmente en sus gobernantes. Y mientras la locura belicista de la alta finanza internacional trata de persuadir a las naciones europeas para que financien el rearme contra la Federación Rusa y para que estén dispuestas a sacrificar a nuestros hijos en una guerra imprudente y engañosa, en el frente sirio (pero también en el de Gaza, donde otros cristianos son objeto de una limpieza étnica) los jerarcas del globalismo guardan un silencio culpable, y además se muestran al lado de un terrorista criminal sobre quien pendía una recompensa de diez millones de dólares.</p>
<p>Es desde el <em>Estado profundo</em> globalista  en Estados Unidos que nace este nuevo semillero de violencia y exterminio. Por lo tanto, es desde Estados Unidos que debe partir una acción que ponga fin al genocidio de los cristianos y de las otras minorías en Siria. A su lado deben estar todos aquéllos que reconocen a Nuestro Señor Jesucristo como el único Salvador, tanto los individuos como las sociedades y las naciones.</p>
<p>No podemos permanecer callados o inertes frente el martirio de nuestros hermanos cristianos. Esas escenas de violencia y crueldad inhumanas que vemos suceder en tierras remotas podrían replicarse mañana en nuestras naciones, que la traición de gobernantes corruptos ha hecho invadir por hordas de fanáticos musulmanes en edad militar, para imponer a Europa el reemplazo étnico y la cancelación definitiva de la civilización cristiana.</p>
<p>Exhorto a los católicos, en estos días de la santa Cuaresma, a rezar, ayunar y hacer penitencia para implorar al cielo la protección de los fieles perseguidos y martirizados en Siria, en Gaza y en muchas otras partes del mundo. Que su ejemplo de heroica firmeza en la profesión de la verdadera fe suscite, antes de que sea demasiado tarde, un despertar de las conciencias de los cristianos y un retorno a Dios, de quien dependen la paz, la concordia y la prosperidad de los pueblos. <em>¡Deus vult!</em></p>

<div><img src="https://exsurgedomine.it/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/miniatura-250312-eng.jpg" data-sanitized-class="ff-og-image-inserted"></div><p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">In the past few days, violence and mass killings of Christians and Alawites in Syria have seen an unprecedented upsurge, with thousands of deaths in all regions under the control of the extremist Islamic movement Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (Organization for the Liberation of the Levant), affiliated with the terrorist group al-Qaeda.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">The reasons for this persecution of the two minorities by the Syrian government are to be found first and foremost in the regime change desired by the previous American Administration, in agreement with NATO and the European Union. The ouster of President Bashar al-Assad and the installation of Abu Mohammed al-Jolani (whose party was until yesterday considered by the American State Department to be a terrorist organization) have inevitably led to the genocide of the Alawites and Syrian Christians.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">This genocide is taking place today right before our eyes, even as the parliaments of the “democratic” nations and the “Catholic” hierarchy subservient to the interests of globalism remain silent.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Our Christian brothers are being barbarically killed in cities and villages. Elderly people, women, and children are being crucified and massacred purely because of their Christian Faith: a Faith that decades of compromises and concessions have almost completely erased in Western countries and especially among their leaders. And while the warmongering madness of international high finance is trying to persuade European nations to finance rearmament against the Russian Federation and to be ready to sacrifice our children in a reckless and specious war, on the Syrian front (but also in Gaza, where other Christians are being ethnically cleansed) the hierarchs of globalism are culpably silent, and indeed they are aligning themselves with a criminal terrorist on whom a ten million dollar bounty was hanging.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">It is from the globalist deep state in the United States that this new hotbed of violence and extermination has been hatched: it is therefore from the United States that an action aimed at putting an end to the genocide of Christians and other minorities in Syria must start. At their side must stand all those who recognize Our Lord Jesus Christ as the only Savior, both individuals as well as societies and nations.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">We cannot remain silent or inert in the face of the martyrdom of our Christian brothers. Those scenes of inhuman violence and cruelty that we see happening in remote lands could tomorrow be replicated in our own Western nations, which the betrayal of corrupt rulers has caused to be invaded by hordes of fanatical Mohammedans of military age, in order to impose on Europe ethnic substitution and the definitive cancellation of Christian Civilization.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">I urge Catholics, during these days of Holy Lent, to pray, fast and do penance to implore from Heaven protection for the faithful who are being persecuted and martyred in Syria, Gaza, and many other parts of the world. May their example of heroic steadfastness in the profession of the true Faith animate, before it is too late, an awakening of the consciences of Christians and a return to God, on whom the peace, harmony, and prosperity of peoples depends. <em>Deus vult!</em></span></p>

<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Les raisons de cette persécution des deux minorités par le gouvernement syrien sont à chercher tout d’abord dans le <em>regime change</em> voulu par la précédente Administration américaine, en accord avec l’OTAN et l’Union Européenne.

Personnes âgées, femmes et enfants ne sont crucifiés et massacrés qu’à cause de leur Foi : une Foi que des décennies de compromis et de concessions ont presque complètement effacée dans les Pays occidentaux et surtout dans leurs dirigeants. Et tandis que la folie belliciste de la haute finance internationale tente de persuader les Nations européennes de financer le réarmement contre la Fédération de Russie et d’être prêtes à sacrifier nos enfants dans une guerre absurde et spécieuse, sur le front syrien (mais aussi sur celui de Gaza, où d’autres Chrétiens font l’objet d’un nettoyage ethnique), les hiérarques du mondialisme se taisent coupablement, et plus grave encore, ils se montrent aux côtés d’un terroriste criminel sur lequel une prime de dix millions de dollars était suspendue.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">C’est de l’<em>état profond</em> mondialiste aux États-Unis que naît ce nouveau foyer de violence et d’extermination : c’est donc des États-Unis qu’il faut agir pour mettre fin au génocide des Chrétiens et des autres minorités en Syrie.

Ces scènes de violence inhumaine et de cruauté que nous voyons se produire dans des pays lointains pourraient demain se reproduire dans nos Nations, envahies par des hordes de musulmans fanatiques en âge militaire à cause de la trahison de dirigeants corrompus qui veulent imposer à l’Europe le remplacement ethnique et l’annulation définitive de la Civilisation chrétienne.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">J’exhorte les Catholiques, en ces jours du Saint Carême, à prier, à jeûner et à faire pénitence afin d’implorer du Ciel la protection des fidèles persécutés et martyrisés en Syrie, à Gaza et dans de nombreuses autres parties du monde. Puisse leur exemple de fermeté héroïque dans la profession de la vraie Foi animer, avant qu’il ne soit trop tard, un réveil des consciences des Chrétiens et un retour à Dieu, de qui dépendent la paix, la concorde et la prospérité des peuples. <em>Deus vult !</em></span></p>

<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Le ragioni di questa persecuzione delle due minoranze da parte del governo siriano sono da ricercarsi anzitutto nel <em>regime change</em> voluto dalla precedente Amministrazione americana, in accordo con la NATO e con l’Unione Europea. L’estromissione del Presidente Bashar al-Assad e l’insediamento di Abu Mohammed al-Jolani (il cui partito era fino a ieri considerato dal Dipartimento di Stato americano come organizzazione terroristica) hanno inevitabilmente comportato il genocidio degli Alawiti e dei Cristiani siriani.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Questo genocidio si compie oggi sotto i nostri occhi, nel silenzio dei parlamenti delle Nazioni “democratiche” e di una Gerarchia “cattolica” asservita agli interessi del globalismo.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">I nostri fratelli Cristiani sono barbaramente uccisi nelle città e nei villaggi. Anziani, donne e bambini vengono crocifissi e massacrati solo a causa della loro Fede: una Fede che decenni di compromessi e cedimenti hanno quasi completamente cancellato nei Paesi occidentali e specialmente nei loro governanti. E mentre la follia guerrafondaia dell’alta finanza internazionale cerca di persuadere le Nazioni europee a finanziare il riarmo contro la Federazione Russa e ad essere pronti a sacrificare i nostri figli in una guerra sconsiderata e pretestuosa, sul fronte siriano (ma anche su quello di Gaza, dove altri Cristiani sono oggetto di una pulizia etnica) i gerarchi del globalismo tacciono colpevolmente, ed anzi si mostrano al fianco di un terrorista criminale sul quale pendeva una taglia di dieci milioni di dollari.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">È dal <em>deep state</em> globalista negli Stati Uniti che nasce questo nuovo focolaio di violenza e sterminio: è dunque dagli Stati Uniti che deve partire un’azione volta a porre fine al genocidio dei Cristiani e delle altre minoranze in Siria. Al loro fianco devono porsi tutti coloro che riconoscono Nostro Signore Gesù Cristo come unico Salvatore, tanto i singoli quanto le società e le Nazioni.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Non possiamo rimanere in silenzio né inerti dinanzi al martirio dei nostri fratelli Cristiani. Quelle scene di violenza disumana e crudeltà che vediamo accadere in terre remote potrebbero domani replicarsi nelle nostre Nazioni, che il tradimento di governanti corrotti ha fatto invadere da orde di fanatici maomettani in età militare, per imporre all’Europa la sostituzione etnica e la cancellazione definitiva della Civiltà cristiana.</span></p>
<p data-sanitized-class="p1"><span data-sanitized-class="s1">Esorto i Cattolici, in questi giorni della Santa Quaresima, a pregare, a digiunare e a fare penitenza per impetrare al Cielo protezione sui fedeli perseguitati e martirizzati in Siria, a Gaza e in molte altre parti del mondo. Possa il loro esempio di eroica fermezza nella professione della vera Fede animare, prima che sia troppo tardi, un risveglio delle coscienze dei Cristiani e un ritorno a Dio, dal quale dipende la pace, la concordia e prosperità dei popoli. <em>Deus vult!</em></span></p>

Before entering into any proper analysis of this problem, it must be stated at the outset that the primary fallacy of the Canadian National Policy of 1878-1885 is simply that the policy neither had a national origin, nor was Canada ever permitted by the British Empire to become a truly sovereign nation.</em></p><p>Understanding the true agenda behind Canada’s origins are necessary to understand why it has been the curse of Canada to be endowed with the most bountiful resources and landmass on the one side and the most underdeveloped population with only thirty three million inhabitants, strung across a 8900 kilometer border on the other, while its cousin to the south has a population of over 320 million. The average density per square mile is a mere 3.75 people per sq. km for Canada compared with 34 people per sq. km for the United States.

These ghosts shape the cultural/political reflexes which prevent Canada from joining with its neighbours to the south and north in a common mission centering around large scale scientific and technological endeavours. This exorcism must begin with the true story of Canada’s origins and “National Policy” of 1878.</p><h3><strong>What is the Canadian ‘National Policy’?</strong></h3><p>Over the years, the Canadian “National Policy” has taken on various forms. At its origins, it received its name from the general policy applied by the Conservative Party platform beginning in 1878 under the administration of <strong>Sir John A.

Vast public improvement programs were also authorized in the bill centering around canal building, and rail through the Maritimes from New York.</p><p>The Hudson’s Bay Territory was a strange phenomenon in North America. From 1670 until 1869, the vast largely unexplored and undeveloped wilderness was the private property of the Hudson’s Bay Company, who, having received a Royal Charter under King Charles II, had the duty as a subsidiary of the British East India Company’s global operation, to maintain an operation of a vast corrupt fur trade on the one side while blocking American ventures into continental development on the other [see figure 1].

This Bill’s appearance, combined with the Alaskan purchase, and the growing independence and annexation movements across Canada, did however give Britain the sense of existential urgency to consolidate its territories under some form of imperial federation beholden to the British Crown at all costs. The Colonies of Canada, so close to Britain’s mortal enemy were far too geopolitically important for the Empire to lose at this moment in history.</p><h3><strong>The Fraud of the BNA Act</strong></h3><p>The first vital maneuver conducted by the British as a response to these developments, merely three months after the Alaska purchase, was the speedy completion of the confederation of the four easternmost colonies under the British North America Act of July 1, 1867 [6], renaming Upper and Lower Canada as “the provinces of Ontario and Quebec”. </p><p>The BNA Act was the consolidation of 72 resolutions hammered out in two 1864 conferences which were designed to thwart the dynamic of American Annexationists on the one side and honest Canadian Nationalists such as the President of the Executive Council Isaac Buchanan (under the Macdonald-Cartier government) who worked valiantly not only to unite Canada with Lincoln’s America, but also fought to keep Canada out of any further wars with Great Britain [7]. </p><p>Buchanan had lost this powerful position by a coup inside of his party run by his nemesis George Brown and John A. Macdonald. While Brown and Macdonald appeared to public view as enemies, the reality was that they were both beholden to the City of London’s interests for the entirety of their lives, and chose to adapt themselves to a rigged game of free market “Grits” on the left (Brown) and “protectionist” Tories on the right (Macdonald). This is the root of the Liberal and Conservative parties of Canada.</p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd19bd10f-57b9-48df-becf-4ca97451c7c3_541x335.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd19bd10f-57b9-48df-becf-4ca97451c7c3_541x335.png" width="541" height="335" data-attrs='{"src":"https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d19bd10f-57b9-48df-becf-4ca97451c7c3_541x335.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":335,"width":541,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":null,"alt":"","title":"","type":null,"href":null,"belowTheFold":true,"topImage":false,"internalRedirect":null,"isProcessing":false}' alt="" title="" loading="lazy" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>The fraud of the BNA Act merits a greater analysis, but for the present purposes, it suffices to demonstrate that it did not establish a “sovereign nation of Canada” as is popularly held. Rather, the architecture merely maintained a framework of pure British Privy Council control of Canadian affairs, permitting only an illusory degree of democracy. By establishing its foundations not upon a Principle of the General Welfare, nor acknowledging the existence of unalienable rights as embodied in Canada’s southern cousin, the Canadian Constitution is a very different beast. Its preamble literally states:</p><blockquote><p><em>“Whereas the Provinces of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick have expressed their Desire to be federally united into One Dominion under the Crown of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, with a Constitution similar in Principle to that of the United Kingdom: <strong>And Whereas such a Union would conduce to the Welfare of the Provinces and promote the interests of the British Empire</strong>”</em>[8]</p></blockquote><p>According to this preamble, the <em>“raison d’être</em>” of Canada is not the defense of the general welfare of its people, but rather the promotion of interests of the British Empire!</p><p>The BNA Act used the old British trick of the “fur blanket” bribe used first in <a href="https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2020/07/01/why-canada-failed-the-ben-franklin-challenge-in-1776/">1774 to keep Quebec from joining the rebellious 13 colonies under the “Quebec Act”</a>[9]. The Act gave the Dominion of Canada increased legislative control over its local affairs by forming for the first time, a federal structure around a Parliament, Judiciary and Senate which would have the appearance of power only, while the true power always remained in the powerful office of the Crown and its agents in the Privy Council Office and Governor General. This fact is laid out in several sections within the act:</p><blockquote><p><em>“The Executive Government and Authority of and over Canada is hereby declared to continue and be vested in the Queen.”</em></p></blockquote><p>Since the Monarch herself could not be in every Dominion at the same time, provisions were made to ensure that her absolute authority would be actively arranging the affairs of state modeled on the British Privy Council system:</p><blockquote><p><em>“There shall be a Council to aid and advise in the Government of Canada, to be styled the Queen’s Privy Council for Canada; and the Persons who are to be Members of that Council shall be from Time to Time chosen and summoned by the Governor General and sworn in as Privy Councillors, and Members thereof may be from Time to Time removed by the Governor General.”</em></p></blockquote><p>Peppered throughout the Act are ongoing references to the importance of the Queen’s Privy Council of Canada to “advise” the government under the absolute authority of the Governor General, who is still legally recognized as the only head of state and legal representative of the Crown. Responsibility to keep the individual provinces under coordinated control was left to the power of the Lieutenant Governors assigned to each province. The real seat of power ensuring optimal control of Canadian federal policy by its London masters, especially in the field of economic warfare has been from this time on, the Privy Council, of which every single Prime Minister of Canada has been a member [10]. And just in case one might think that the Canadian military would be exempt from this control, the Act goes on to read:</p><blockquote><p><em>“The Command-in-Chief of the Land and Naval Militia, and of all Naval and Military Forces, of and in Canada, is hereby declared to continue and be vested in the Queen”</em> [11]</p></blockquote><p>In order to ensure that Canada was to remain as fragmented as possible and no strong federal structure of checks and balances modeled on the American System could occur, the Act also laid out in Section 92, a framework which gave the largest possible power to the provinces to control their own resources, taxation and internal policy outside of any federal structure.</p><h3><strong>Sir John A.

If Britain has traditionally kept its Colonies consciously underdeveloped in order to maintain fixed, and thus easy-to-control systems of equilibrium, then under what intention did the British Crown and Privy Council mandate the construction of a rail system from the east coast of Canada all the way to the coastal limit of British Columbia in the west unleashing vast rates of increase in prosperity of the nation? The opening up of the Prairies to development had been something which the Empire, using its Hudson’s Bay Company had been working for over 200 years to prevent… so why did this policy change during the period of Macdonald?</p><p>A clue to this question can be found in Macdonald’s famous 1867 quote: <em>“I would be quite willing, personally to leave the whole country a wilderness for the next half century, but I fear if Englishmen do not go there the Yankees will.”</em></p><h3><strong>The Historical Dynamic leading up to B.C. Bribe of 1870</strong></h3><p>Up until 1870, the fate of the new BNA Act was still highly questionable. <a href="https://opentextbc.ca/postconfederation/chapter/2-2-nova-scotias-second-thoughts/">The Nova Scotian annexation movement</a> had risen to new levels of influence with the post 1867 collapse of their fisheries dominated economy. This collapse was shaped by 1) new binding free trade treaties with Britain which the new Confederacy was subject to and 2) the 1865 cancelling of the U.S.-Canada “Reciprocity Treaty of 1854” by the Americans in response to the British support for the southern rebels during the Civil War. No other path to survival could be seen by the republican Nova Scotians but changing its alliances and breaking out of the 1867 BNA Act. If they would do so, then it was all but guaranteed that New Brunswick would do the same. Meanwhile turmoil in the Red River Settlement (located in today’s Manitoba) had also imbued deep concerns in the British Empire.</p><p>Of far more strategic significance to the continuation of the British Empire’s interests than the Red River Settlement or east coast annexation movements, was the troubling developments occurring in the colony of British Columbia. After the 1867 American purchase of Alaska, British Columbia had become very hot real estate. Lincoln republicans in America led by William Seward and Senator Sumner, made their intention of annexation of B.C. well known.</p><p>Frustrating matters for the British was the reality that the deep economic depression in B.C. [13], combined with the colony’s vast geographical separation from of its confederated sister colonies on the east coast had resulted in a massive yearning in its inhabitants for annexation into the United States, some on principle and some simply for survival.</p><p>Out of sheer desperation, leading merchants and politicians of the colony sent the first Annexation Petition to Queen Victoria on July 2, 1867 which laid out a politely worded ultimatum:</p><blockquote><p><em>“Either, that Your Majesty’s Government may be pleased to relieve us immediately of the expense of our excessive staff of officials, assist the establishment of a British steam-line with the Panamas, so that immigration from England may more easily reach us, and also assume the debts of the colonies, Or that your Majesty will graciously permit the colony to become a portion of the United States”</em> [14]</p></blockquote><p>In response to this petition, no formal response was given beyond an appeal for the colony to join the confederation. Knowing this was impossible, Governor of the Colony of B.C., Frederick Seymour, who was also a powerful opponent of Confederation, wrote to the Duke of Buckingham later that month describing the situation:</p><blockquote><p><em>“There is a systemic agitation going on in this town in favour of annexation to the United States. It is believed that money for its maintenance is provided from San Francisco. As yet, however, nothing else has reached me officially on the subject, and should any petition on the subject, I will know how to answer it before I transmit it to your Grace. On the mainland, the question of annexation is not moot.”</em> [15]</p></blockquote><p>As the subsequent year passed, with still no traction on either side, the tension grew more feverish with greater quantities of British loyalists defecting to the annexation camp out of sheer despair. An April 20, 1869 Letter to the Editor of the British Columbian expresses this sentiment well:</p><blockquote><p><em>“With a depleted treasury, revenue falling off, and the Colony suffering from a depression beyond all precedent, with no prospect, either present, or remote, of immigration, what are we to do? … Were the inhabitants of British Columbia a thriving community, the question of annexation would not be popular; for the people are loyal and patriotic. The force of circumstances alone compels them to advocate a change in nationality… I am a loyal Briton, and would prefer living under institutions of my own country, were it practicable. But I, like the rest of the world of which we are each an atom, would prefer the flag and institutions of the United States with prosperity, to remaining as we are, with no prospect of succeeding as a British Colony”.</em> [16]</p></blockquote><p>Such sentiment, resulted in a second, more powerfully worded petition signed by 100 influential leading citizens, now directed both to the Queen as well as the President of the United States. It read:</p><blockquote><p><em>“We are constrained by the duty we owe to ourselves and families, in view of the contemplated severance of the political ties which unite this Colony to the “Mother country”, to seek for such political and commercial affinity and connection, as will insure the immediate and continued prosperity and wellbeing of this our adopted home…</em></p><p><em>That we view with feelings of alarm the avowed intention of Her Majesty’s Government to confederate this Colony with the Dominion of Canada, as we believe such a measure can only tend to still further depression and ultimate injury for the following reasons, viz:</em></p><p><em>That Confederation cannot give us protection against internal enemies or foreign foes, owing to the distance of this Colony from Ottawa,</em></p><p><em>That it cannot open to us a market for the produce of our lands, our forests, our mines or our waters.</em></p><p><em>That it cannot bring us population, (our greatest need) as the Dominion itself is suffering from a lack of it.</em></p><p><em>That our connection with the Dominion can satisfy no sentiment of loyalty or devotion.</em></p><p><em>That her commercial and industrial interests are opposed to ours.</em></p><p><em>That the tariff of the Dominion will be the ruin of our farmers and the commerce of our chief cities.</em></p><p><em>… The only remedy for the evils which beset us, we believe to be in a close union with the adjoining States and Territories, we are already bound to them by a unity of object and interest; nearly all our commercial relations are with them; They furnish the Chief Markets we have for the products of our mines, lands and waters; They supply the Colony with most of the necessities of life; They furnish us the only means of communication with the outer world;…</em></p><p><em><strong>For these reasons we earnestly desire the ACQUISITION of this Colony by the United States.”</strong></em><strong> </strong>[17]</p></blockquote><p>A copy of the petition was given to Vincent Collyer, the great American painter and Indian Commissioner of Alaska which he personally delivered to President Ulysses S. Grant. The press dispatch from the office of the President printed in the British Colonist of January 11, 1870 read:</p><blockquote><p><em>“Washington D.C. December 30, Vincent Collyer yesterday handed to the President [Grant] a memorial signed by a number of property holders and businessmen in Victoria to be followed by another which will contain the names of all the British merchants and others at Victoria, Nanaimo and other places, in favor of the transfer of British Columbia to the United States. The President today returned Collyer a verbal reply that he had received it with great interest and sent it to the Secretary of State. Collyer also showed a memorial to Senator Sumner, Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, who, after reading it, said the movement was important and could have but one termination. Meanwhile, the government waits to movement of England which is fast seeing the uselessness and impracticability of European Empire on this hemisphere. Both the President and Sumner desired their replies to be made known to the memorialists”</em> [18]</p></blockquote><p>By now, it was a race against time. The colonists knew that Britain was preparing vigorously to regain control of their colony. In July of 1868, the Crown mandated that an Act of British Canada’s parliament allocate funds to purchase Rupert’s Land and the Northwest Territories from the Hudson’s Bay Company, which occurred that same month erasing one major obstacle to British negotiations. On the other hand, by May 10, 1869, the American Transcontinental Railway was completed, linking for the first time an entire continent by rail from coast. A ferry system already existed from B.C. to California, bringing a boom of prosperity to the poor colony and making the feasibility of a rail extension from America into the colony that much more realistic.</p><p>The deadly mistake made by the author of the press dispatch, including President Grant was their assumption that England’s intention could be accessed by the loud voices of some of its members of parliament calling for a release of British Columbia. It was and still is the case that the true seat of power of Britain is located far above the parliament in the form of the Queen’s Privy Council and Foreign Office which then had no intention whatsoever of losing this vital possession. Although Sumner and Seward were far less naïve on this matter, the majority of leading Americans, the President included, didn’t fully “get it”. The British Minister in Washington writing to his London associates is useful in providing insight into the British oligarchy’s perception of events:</p><blockquote><p><em>“The circumstance, the existing disturbance in the Hudson’s Bay Settlement [Red River Colony –ed], and the asserted disaffection in Nova Scotia, are much commented upon by the newspapers of this country, and are looked upon as the beginning of a separation of the British provinces from the mother country, and of their early annexation to the United States. This view of the matter is put in connection with the settlement of the differences with us arising out of the “Alabama Affair”, and senators are evidently indulging in the illusive hope that England has it in her power, and might not be unwilling to come to an amicable settlement of those differences on the basis of the cessation of our territory on this continent to the United States”</em> [19].</p></blockquote><p>The greatest tragedy of patriots everywhere in dealing with the British have been their tendency not to look upon the true nature of its evil soul. This letter demonstrates clearly the disdain that British imperialists have felt towards the naïve idealism of the victims whom they intend to destroy. An evil intention animated by a passionate desire to destroy the good will go to any ends of deceit in order to turn any obstacle against their power into a weapon against their naïve enemies. A case in point can be found in the reference made by the British ambassador to the “Alabama Affair”.</p><h3><strong>The Alabama Claims Affair</strong></h3><p>By the end of the Civil War, Sumner and Seward led American patriots to go on the offensive against the true instigator of the war… not the southern confederacy, but the British Empire. The powerful flank which they chose to use as their weapon was the open fact that Confederate Warships used against Lincoln’s forces were built and supplied by the British under direct orders of Lord Palmerston and Lord John Russell. The most famous and destructive of the British-made war ships was the “C.S.S. Alabama”.</p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F76a7780a-dc24-4701-8479-faf247484354_386x478.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F76a7780a-dc24-4701-8479-faf247484354_386x478.png" width="386" height="478" data-attrs='{"src":"https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/76a7780a-dc24-4701-8479-faf247484354_386x478.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":478,"width":386,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":null,"alt":"","title":"","type":null,"href":null,"belowTheFold":true,"topImage":false,"internalRedirect":null,"isProcessing":false}' alt="" title="" loading="lazy" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>These American patriots began an international fight over Britain’s obligation to pay reparations for damages incurred during the war known as the “Alabama Claims”. Upon Seward’s purchase of Alaska, Senator Sumner began mobilizing for the demand of $2 billion from Britain or the annexation of its North American territories. Although Seward was highly favorable to the plan, British stalling tactics kept the Alabama Claims fight on hold for years. During these important years, America had lost much of its powerful bargaining chips and British control of its territories had advanced too far. By March of 1871, Grant’s appointed Secretary of State Hamilton Fish worked out an agreement with Britain on the Alabama Claims resulting in a mere $15.5 million dollars and an end to all similar disputes regarding Britain’s role in sponsoring the Southern Confederacy during the Civil War. This became known as “the Washington Treaty”. Much of the potential that was alive two years earlier had by then been sabotaged. It is of interest that one of the key arbitrators of the Alabama Claims was also Canada’s very active Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald.</p><h3><strong>The Elimination of Governor Seymour</strong></h3><p>During the months preceding the 2nd B.C. Annexation petition, a major tragedy befell the republican cause with the untimely death of Governor Frederick Seymour, who had been a long-time enemy of Confederation. In the short months before Seymour’s death on June 10, 1869, he had enraged the highest echelons of the Empire’s civil servants such as Sir Frederick Rogers, Undersecretary of State for the Colonies who, upon discovering that Seymour had suppressed information for months from the Colonial Office that a vote in favour of Confederation had occurred in the B.C. Legislature wrote<em> “it appears that on March 28 last, the Council passed a Resolution in favour of admission which however Governor Seymour only now [November 4] sends through in his March telegram he said he would write.”</em> [20]</p><p>What Sir Rogers is also revealing is that the British had two confederacy plans for the Continent of North America: one in the South of the United States and one in the North of the United States.</p><p>When the next opportunity to vote on Confederation occurred in February 17, 1869, Governor Seymour again sabotaged the pro-confederacy supporters and the British Crown, as he now convinced the legislature to postpone as no details were worked out on the settling of the Hudson’s Bay Company land purchase.</p><p>John A. Macdonald wrote in anger on May 15 to the Governor General of Canada saying<em> “the first thing to be done will be to recall Governor Seymour if his time is not run out”</em> [21], and on the same day he wrote to the pro-confederation Premier of New Brunswick, Sir Anthony Musgrave informing him that Seymour would be recalled: <em>“as being perfectly unfit for his present position, under present circumstances. From all I hear, he was never fit for it”</em> [22].</p><p>Within two weeks of Macdonald’s writing these two telegrams, Governor Seymour was dead. The official story holds that Seymour was sent to the harsh northern tip of B.C. to mediate a conflict between two warring native tribes. Upon his success, Seymour was struck with dysentery and died within days. Seymour was immediately replaced with Macdonald’s ally, Sir Anthony Musgrave, and the annexation movement lost its secret defender. Musgrave immediately set to work preparing for B.C.’s entry into Confederation with the March 1870 “Great Confederation Debates” begun in the legislature and culminated on April 6 with 16 clauses and Resolutions voted upon. Delegates were sent to Ottawa to negotiate these Resolutions while the republican movement in B.C. could only watch helplessly. Final appeals were made during this dark hour by leading citizens to the American Government, evidenced by the following letter of August 17, 1870 written by H.F. Heisterman [23] a leading merchant of the annexation movement:</p><blockquote><p><em>“Understanding that you are likely to have his Excellency President Grant among you some time this month and that you will likely have an opportunity, I herewith hand you a further list of names to the memorial presented in December 1869 by Vincent Collyer. It would have been sent then, but owing to the hostility shown to it by the Canadian newspaper here it was not sent. I therefore transmit it to you, to make whatever use of it you see fit in the premises. It is exasperating to me and my fellow citizens, to see a country aggregating 405 000 square miles, of which 11 000 square miles comes upon Vancouver Island and 6000 upon Queen Charlotte Island and the balance 388 000 sq. miles upon the mainland of British Columbia, shut out as it were from the prosperity around it. The people of the colony are too few to make an armed resistance to confederation which seems on all accounts intended to be forced on us unless some countenance were given to parties who desire annexation to the United States by the government of President Grant, in a proposal to settle the Alabama Claim by the transfer of this colony, I don’t see how we can move in the matter.”</em> [24]</p></blockquote><h3><strong>The B.C. Bribe is Finalized</strong></h3><p>Musgrave’s agents advanced negotiations at breakneck speed. Ottawa negotiations began on June 7, 1870 and within weeks nearly all resolutions and clauses were agreed upon. The two biggest impediments to B.C.’s entry into the Confederacy were dealt with by the payment of all of the colony’s debts by Ottawa and the promise made by Macdonald to construct a rail line linking the new province with Montreal and Quebec “within ten years”. This promised rail line was necessary in order to sabotage the intention of the American Manifest Destiny policy.</p><p>Sir Alexander Galt, a fellow father of Confederation and proponent of Canadian expansion, speaking to a crowd on May 22, 1867 in Lennoxville Quebec described his views on the need to extend confederation and rail to the Pacific:</p><blockquote><p><em>“We cannot close our eyes to what is happening in the West… I for one look upon the acquisition of Russian America by the United States as their answer to the arrangements we have been making to unite among ourselves… If the United States desire to outflank us on the west, we must accept the situation and lay our hand on British Columbia and the Pacific Ocean. This country cannot be surrounded by the Unites States- We are gone if we allow it… “From the Atlantic to the Pacific” must be the cry in British America as much as it has ever been in the United States”</em></p></blockquote><p>Another Father of Confederation George Brown, who ran the influential Toronto Globe and heavily promoted Canada’s trans-continental railway, wrote on July 10, 1867 that</p><blockquote><p><em>“Seward’s attempt to coerce Canada by the purchase of Walrussia [aka: Alaska] has brought down upon him the laughter of mankind and has not altered one white the determination of the people of British America from Prince Edward Island to Vancouver to stand by the old flag to the last man and the last cartridge”</em></p></blockquote><p>Sir George Etienne Cartier stated in 1865 dreaded the immanent annexation of Canada by saying <em><strong>“We must either have a Confederation of British North America or else be absorbed by the American Confederation.”</strong></em></p><p>With these arrangements agreed upon (paralleling similar arrangements in the former Red River Settlement), British Columbia was admitted into Confederation as the 6th Canadian Province [25]. Within the coming decades, as Canada was increasingly turned into a wedge blocking US-Russian collaboration and arctic development. Saskatchewan and Alberta were formed as provinces where there had formerly been Hudson’s Bay land.</p><p>After eight years, still no progress had been made on the construction of the promised rail linking the Dominion and again, British Columbia continued to feel the painful grip and despair of isolation and economic depression. This pain was made that much worse, as the republican neighbour to the south was witnessing unheard of prosperity under the effects of Lincoln’s Trans continental Railroad and vigorous pioneering of the west. The American System’s continuation of <a href="http://canadianpatriot.org/the-principle-of-national-sovereignty-in-an-era-of-regime-change/">John Quincy Adams’ Manifest Destiny policy</a>, led by Lincoln’s economic advisor Henry C. Carey had resulted in the greatest explosion of wealth in the United States, and become a model for the whole civilized world with the 1876 Centennial Celebration in Philadelphia.</p><div data-sanitized-class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc545fff6-0a39-4338-9249-e39ae7bae1dc_451x439.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM" data-sanitized-class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"><div data-sanitized-class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc545fff6-0a39-4338-9249-e39ae7bae1dc_451x439.png" width="451" height="439" data-attrs='{"src":"https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/c545fff6-0a39-4338-9249-e39ae7bae1dc_451x439.png","srcNoWatermark":null,"fullscreen":null,"imageSize":null,"height":439,"width":451,"resizeWidth":null,"bytes":null,"alt":"","title":"","type":null,"href":null,"belowTheFold":true,"topImage":false,"internalRedirect":null,"isProcessing":false}' alt="" title="" loading="lazy" data-sanitized-class="sizing-normal"></picture><div data-sanitized-class="image-link-expand"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container restack-image"><path d="M3 12a9 9 0 0 1 9-9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1 6.74 2.74L21 8"></path><path d="M21 3v5h-5"></path><path d="M21 12a9 9 0 0 1-9 9 9.75 9.75 0 0 1-6.74-2.74L3 16"></path><path d="M8 16H3v5"></path></div><div data-sanitized-class="pencraft pc-reset icon-container view-image"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></div></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>The superiority of the American System to the failure of the wicked British System of Free Trade resulted in America becoming the world’s leading productive power.</p><p>Converts to the American System were made by all lovers of progress from around the world who came to the Convention.

Even some among the greatest enemies of the late Governor Seymour were gripped by this frustration of progress, exemplified by Amor De Cosmos, then a Liberal MP for Victory, who in May 1878 arose in parliament and warned that if rail development did not begin immediately, then British Columbia would annex into the United States!</p><h3><strong>A Clone is Born without a Soul</strong></h3><p>The threat of losing Canada to the United States having once again resurfaced, Sir John A. Macdonald was brought back into power after a five year role in opposition under a dysfunctional Liberal Government. The new platform which the Privy Council used to steamroll him back into office was called “The National Policy”. This program was based on a perverse copy of the American Policy of high tariffs, the speedy construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway, the creation of new agricultural zones, open immigration and other internal improvements, yet with one caveat… it’s governing intention was aimed not at building a sovereign nation of Canada, but rather the ultimate destruction of America and a reconstruction of global British imperial hegemony.</p><p>The National Policy featured a sweet deal with the Canadian Pacific Railway which was incorporated in 1881 and was granted a generous $25 million subsidy from Ottawa along with 10 million hectares of rich land. The CPR was also exempted from paying taxes for the next 20 years. </p><p>Five years later, on June 28, 1886, the first CPR train left Montreal and, like a slap on the face to all republicans in Canada, and at the same time demonstrating its true anti-American intention, was timed to arrive on July 4, 1886 at Port Moody in British Columbia.</p><p>Due to the inability of American System patriots to continue the trajectory of progress unleashed by Lincoln’s victory, the unification of intention of Russia and America was never finalized, the material division which fed a spiritual disease later capitalized upon by the British Foreign Office architects of the wars of the 20th century (including the Cold War <a href="https://risingtidefoundation.net/2022/04/20/fdrs-anti-colonial-vision-for-the-post-war-world-as-he-saw-it-revisited/">which was only unleashed over the dead body of FDR).</a></p><p>Similarly, Berlin to Baghdad rail developments as well as similar rail programs planned between Germany and France and both to Russia had resulted in a dynamic of division which the British capitalized upon to instigate the irrational meat grinders known as World Wars I and II. Due to similar frauds, the birth of a sovereign Canada was derailed, and a population, occupying one of the richest and largest territories in the world, was subject to a dynamic which has left it vastly underdeveloped, with the lowest population density in the world of 34 million for a land area of almost 10 million square kilometers. A single state of California alone sustains over 38 million inhabitants while most of that is desert!</p><h3><strong>The Conclusion of a Fallacy. Let the Truth Begin Again.</strong></h3><p>The paradox of “Canadian Nationalism” can only be efficiently addressed by first recognizing the power of progress as a universal phenomenon, expressed both in biological evolution of species, and human evolution of civilization which Lincoln’s advisor Henry Carey <a href="https://archive.org/details/unitylawasexhib01caregoog">referred to as the</a> “increasing powers of association of labor, producer, and consumer”. This power towards increasing self-conscious creative thought actively with an intention to perfect the universe, is so powerful that even those regressive policies expressed by the oligarchical principle must submit and adapt to it.</p><p>The power of this anti-entropic capacity of human creativity to leap outside of closed systems of material/intellectual limits in order to discover a higher organizing principle and willfully act in conformity with it, is expressed most clearly in recent history by the American Constitutional System and its affiliated view of man as a creature made in the image of its Creator.</p><p>The adoption of momentary progress in order to annihilate a greater good was considered a necessary evil on the part of the leading strategists of the British Empire’s Privy Council, then centered around Lord John Russell, Lord Palmerston of the powerful British Foreign Office. The influential pro-American System faction of Canadian patriots operating <a href="http://canadianpatriot.org/the-american-system-in-canada/">under the leadership of Isaac Buchanan</a> was removed from power with the full adoption of the “National Policy” which followed the British North America Act of 1867. These policies stymied the birth of a true sovereign nation.</p><p>To the horror of the British Empire in 1958, John Diefenbaker <a href="https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2019/10/24/how-deep-state-overthrew-last-nationalist-government-canada-1963/">and his collaborators were inspired</a> by the progress achieved during this period of rapid Canadian development, and attempted to reproduce this process once again except with an important ingredient lacking in Sir John A. Macdonald… a devout love of unbounded progress without ulterior motive for destroying America. This approach of an active “nationalism” whose aim was to effect an increase of national power, was about to clash directly with the passive <a href="http://thesaker.is/a-canada-day-surprise-how-a-synthetic-nationalism-was-created-to-break-the-us-russia-alliance/">“New Nationalism”</a> then being artificially crafted by the nest of Rhodes scholars working for the British Foreign Office’s Canadian Institute of International Affairs (CIIA) under the likes of Vincent Massey, Georges Henri Levesque, and <a href="http://canadianpatriot.org/walter-gordons-cultural-engineering-global-governance-and-anarchism-in-canada/">Walter Gordon</a>.</p><p>This perverted “Nationalism” was merely a conduit selected to promote cultural irrationalism, and the acceptance of fascism masquerading as “zero-technological growth”, otherwise known as the “New Cult of Eugenics” or “environmentalism” aimed at destroying the whole continent of North America.</p><p>Canada stands once again at a fork in the road of history. On the one side the forces representing authentic nationalism, cooperation, progress and peace are animated by such programs as the Multipolar Alliance, BRICS+ and New Silk Road. On the other hand, a neo-eugenic transhumanist Technate geering for world war and total enslavement is pushing on our destiny from another darker realm. </p><p>Which direction will Canadians choose remains to be seen.</p><h3><strong>Notes</strong></h3><p>[1] This historic economic identity has been re-embodied in recent years with the nation-killing North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).</p><p>[2] The Treaty of Westphalia of 1648 not only ended the 30 Years War that ravaged Europe, but also established the basis for the modern form of sovereign nation state defining international law for the subsequent 350+ years. The pre-amble of the Treaty read in part: <em>“That this Peace and Amity be observ’d and cultivated with such a Sincerity and Zeal, that each Party shall endeavour to procure the Benefit, Honour and Advantage of the other; that thus on all sides they may see this Peace and Friendship in the Roman Empire, and the Kingdom of France flourish, by entertaining a good and faithful Neighbourhood.”</em> And can be read as a whole here: <a href="http://avalon.law.yale.edu/17th_century/westphal.asp">http://avalon.law.yale.edu/17th_century/westphal.asp</a></p><p>[3] Anton Chaitkin, <em>Why the British Kill American Presidents</em>, Executive Intelligence Review, December 12, 2008, <a href="http://www.larouchepub.com/eiw/public/2008/2008_50-52/2008_50-52/2008-50/pdf/26-35_3548.pdf">http://www.larouchepub.com/eiw/public/2008/2008_50-52/2008_50-52/2008-50/pdf/26-35_3548.pdf</a></p><p>[4] The full text of the bill can be viewed on <a href="http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Annexation_Bill_of_1866">http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Annexation_Bill_of_1866</a></p><p>[5] Known as “the Great Liberator”, Czar Alexander II was so inspired by Lincoln’s vision that he followed the American program of emancipation when he liberated the serfs in 1861.

As section 60 of the Charter clearly lays out: <em><strong>“</strong>This Act may be cited as the Constitution Act, 1982, and the Constitution Acts 1867 to 1975 (No. 2) and this Act may be cited together as the Constitution Acts, 1867 to 1982”… </em>meaning the 1867 Act is still in full force to this day.</p><p>[7] Buchanan’s famous December 1863 speech provides a clear insight into his principles: <em>“The adoption by England for herself of this transcendental principle [Free Trade] has all but lost the Colonies, and her madly attempting to make it the principle of the British Empire would entirely alienate the Colonies. Though pretending to unusual intelligence, the Manchester Schools are, as a class, as void of knowledge of the world as of patriotic principle… As a necessary con-sequence of the legislation of England, Canada will require England to assent to the establishment of two things: 1st, an American Zollverein [aka: Customs Union]. 2nd: Canada to be made neutral territory in time of any war between Eng-land and the United States”.</em> Cited in Isaac Buchanan’s <em>Relations of the Industry of Canada with the Mother Country and the United States</em>, 1864, p. 9-22</p><p>[8] This is especially ironical since the United Kingdom does not have a written constitution.

It cannot be and never will be.” </em>He also went on to say that <em>“if the Chinese were given voting rights then “the Aryan character of the future of British America should be destroyed”</em>.

Entire towns sprung up over night, and land speculation soared. The bubble popped in the mid 1860s leading to the deepest recession in the colony’s history.</p><p>[14] Annexation Petition, July 1867, enclosed in Allen Francis to F.H.

While Chairing the Commission on Protectionism, Mendeleyev astutely annihilated the argument for free trade ending with the following remarks in an 1891 Tariff paper: “<em>Belonging to the small circle of Russians who have given their entire lives to science, who own neither factories nor plants, and knowing that contemporary science has uncovered crude untruths and omissions in the “classical” and “orthodox” teachings of the free trade school, and, finally, seeing that the historical and experimental–that is the real–path of study of political economy leads to different conclusions than those of the free traders, which are taken on faith as “the last word in science”–I consider it my duty, partly in defense of truly con-temporary, progressing science, to say openly and loudly that I stand for rational protectionism. Free trad-ism as a doctrine is very shaky; the free trade form of activity suits only countries that have already consolidated their manufacturing industry; protectionism as an absolute doctrine is the same sort of non-sense as free trade absolutism; and the protectionist mode of activity is perfectly appropriate now for Russia, as it was for England in its time….” </em>cited in Barbara Frazier,
