The title of the pro­gram is a con­trac­tion of The Turner Diaries and Serpent’s Walk–two Nazi tracts pub­lished by the National Alliance-the most impor­tant of the domes­tic Nazi groups. In the con­text of what fol­lows, it is impor­tant to under­stand that National Alliance’s books are intended as teach­ing tools and manifestos.

Begin­ning with dis­cus­sion of the FBI’s aware­ness of Okla­homa City bomber Tim­o­thy McVeigh’s con­nec­tion to white suprema­cist groups threat­en­ing to blow up Fed­eral build­ings, the broad­cast reviews the sim­i­lar­ity between the 9/11 attack on the Pen­ta­gon and the aer­ial sui­cide attack on the Pen­ta­gon described in The Turner Diaries. One of the most thought-provoking aspects of the inves­ti­ga­tion into the Okla­homa City bomb­ing con­cerns McVeigh’s asso­ci­a­tion with Andreas Strass­meir, a Ger­man neo-Nazi, for­mer Bun­deswehr offi­cer and the son of Gunter Strassmeir-Helmut Kohl’s chief of staff and the archi­tect of Ger­man reuni­fi­ca­tion. Accord­ing to an ATF infor­mant who passed a lie-detector test, Strass­meir was the mas­ter­mind of the Okla­homa City bomb­ing and McVeigh was his foot soldier.

High­light­ing the sim­i­lar­ity between Serpent’s Walk and The Turner Diaries, the pro­gram com­pares the takeover sce­nar­ios pre­sented in both books.

The pro­gram con­cludes with dis­cus­sion of the strate­gic use of Zion­ism and Jews as a scape­goat. Par­tic­u­lar empha­sis is on the career of Otto Von Bolschwing, whose pro­tégé (Helene van Damm) selected the list of peo­ple from which Ronald Rea­gan made his cab­i­net appoint­ments. In charge of SS intel­li­gence mat­ters in the Mid­dle East, Von Bolschwing con­spired with fas­cist double-agent Jack Philby and King Ibn Saud of Saudi Ara­bia in order to pro­voke the Arabs into sid­ing with the Third Reich.

Pro­gram High­lights Include: Andreas Strassmeir’s asso­ci­a­tion with Amer­i­can Nazi attor­ney Kirk Lyons; Nuclear and bio-terrorism as pre­texts for estab­lish­ing mar­tial law; the role of neo-conservatives from the Rea­gan admin­is­tra­tion in Bush’s defense depart­ment; Von Bolschwing’s asso­ci­a­tion with Allen Dulles and the CIA; the Von Bolschwing-Jack Philby con­spir­acy to pro­mote British spon­sor­ship of Jew­ish emi­gra­tion to Palestine.

1. Begin­ning with dis­cus­sion of recent dis­clo­sures con­cern­ing Tim­o­thy McVeigh’s asso­ci­a­tion with white suprema­cist orga­ni­za­tions, the broad­cast relates the fact that the FBI was aware of those asso­ci­a­tions and appar­ently failed to com­mu­ni­cate this to McVeigh’s defense. Recall that McVeigh was inspired by The Turner Diaries. “After the Okla­homa City bomb­ing, FBI inves­ti­ga­tors gath­ered evi­dence link­ing Tim­o­thy McVeigh to white suprema­cists who had threat­ened to attack gov­ern­ment build­ings, inves­tiga­tive memos show. Sev­eral of the doc­u­ments were not pro­vided to the Okla­homa City bomber’s defense before he was con­victed. And the FBI agent in charge of the inves­ti­ga­tion says he never received one tele­type from his own head­quar­ters that raised the pos­si­bil­ity McVeigh was aided by other accom­plices.” (“Memos: FBI Linked Okla. City Bomber McVeigh to White Suprema­cist Group” [AP]; 2/12/2003.)

2. The pro­gram reviews the cli­mac­tic episode of The Turner Diaries, authored by the late William Pierce, the author of Serpent’s Walk. Pierce (the head of the National Alliance) has been quite can­did in inter­views that his “nov­els” are teach­ing tools for the Nazi faith­ful. It is not require a great leap of faith to see that the seed for the attack on the Pen­ta­gon may have come from The Turner Diaries. Although the cor­re­spon­dence is not pre­cise, the sui­cide attack by a low-flying plane is rem­i­nis­cent of the events of 9/11. (It is worth not­ing that Dr. Larry Ford—con­nected to the CIA and the South African apartheid government’s bio­log­i­cal war­fare program—was inspired by The Turner Diaries. Ford was con­nected to right-wing extrem­ist groups in this coun­try and abroad. “I con­ferred pri­vately with Major Williams of the Wash­ing­ton Field Com­mand for more than an hour on the prob­lem of attack­ing the Pen­ta­gon. The military’s other major com­mand cen­ters were either knocked out on Sep­tem­ber 8 or sub­se­quently con­sol­i­dated with the Pen­ta­gon, which the top brass appar­ently regard as impreg­nable. And it damned near is. We went over every pos­si­bil­ity we could think of, and we came up with no really con­vinc­ing plan-except, per­haps one. That is to make an air deliv­ery of a bomb.” (The Turner Diaries; “Andrew Mac­don­ald;” Bar­ri­cade Books, Inc. [SC] 1996; Copy­right 1978, 1980 William Pierce; ISBN 1–56980-086–3; p. 201.)

3. “In the mas­sive ring of defenses around the Pen­ta­gon there is a great deal of anti-aircraft fire­power, but we decided that a small plane, fly­ing just above the ground, might be able to get through the three-mile gaunt­let with one of our 60-kiloton war­heads. One fac­tor in favor of such an attempt is that we have never before used air­craft in such a way, and we might hope to catch the anti-aircraft crews off their guard.” (Idem.)

4. “Although the mil­i­tary is guard­ing all civil air­fields, it just hap­pens that we have an old crop duster stashed in a barn only a few miles from here. My imme­di­ate assign­ment is to pre­pare a detailed plan for an aer­ial attack on the Pen­ta­gon by next Mon­day. We must make a final deci­sion at the time and then with­out fur­ther delay.” (Idem.)

5. “Novem­ber 9, 1993. It’s still three hours until first light, and all sys­tems are ‘go.’ I’ll use the time to write a few pages-my last diary entry. Then it’s a one-way trip to the Pen­ta­gon for me. The war­head is strapped into the front seat of the old Stear­man and rigged to det­o­nate either on impact or when I flip a switch in the back seat. Hope­fully, I’ll be able to mange a low-level air burst directly over the cen­ter of the Pen­ta­gon. Fail­ing that, I’ll at least try to fly as close as I can before I’m shot down.” (Ibid.; p. 202.)

6. “It’s been more than four years since I’ve flown, but I’ve thor­oughly famil­iar­ized myself with the Stear­man cock­pit and been briefed on the plane’s pecu­liar­i­ties: I don’t antic­i­pate any pilot­ing prob­lems. The barn-hangar here is only eight miles from the Pen­ta­gon. We’ll thor­oughly warm up the engine in the barn, and when the door is opened I’ll go like a bat out of hell, straight for the Pen­ta­gon, at an alti­tude of about 50 feet. . .” (Idem.)

7. The selec­tion of the date of the attack is worth not­ing. Novem­ber 9th is a date that the Nazis com­mem­o­rated. It was the date of the Beer Hall Putsch in 1923 and “Die Krys­tall­nacht” in 1938. “Thus end Earl Turner’s diaries, as unpre­ten­tiously as they began. His final mis­sion was suc­cess­ful, of course, as we all are reminded each year on Novem­ber 9-our tra­di­tional Day of the Mar­tyrs.” (Ibid.; p. 205.)

8. High­light­ing the links between the Under­ground Reich and McVeigh, the pro­gram sets forth McVeigh’s links to Andreas Strass­meier, the son of Gunter Strass­meir—Hel­mut Kohl’s chief of staff and the archi­tect of Ger­man reuni­fi­ca­tion. It is inter­est­ing to note that the Berlin Wall came down on Novem­ber 9th.  “Strassmeier’s links to McVeigh and America’s vio­lent racial­ist under­ground are all the more curi­ous given Andreas’s high-powered fam­ily back­ground in Ger­many. His grand­fa­ther was an early mem­ber of the Nazi Party. Years later his father, Gunter Strass­meir, served as Hel­mut Kohl’s de facto chief of staff. A top Chris­t­ian Demo­c­ra­tic offi­cial in Berlin, Gunter was also a close friend and advi­sor to the chan­cel­lor. When the Berlin Wall opened in Novem­ber [9th] 1989, they cel­e­brated together in the streets.” (The Beast Reawak­ens; Mar­tin A. Lee; Copy­right 1997 [HC]; Lit­tle, Brown & Co.; ISBN 0–316-51959–6; p. 352.)

9. Andreas Strassmeir’s attor­ney (and the man who brought Andreas to the United States and intro­duced him to the white suprema­cist com­pound at Elo­him City) was Kirk Lyons, an Aryan Nations attor­ney. As dis­cussed in FTR#27, Lyons rep­re­sented a group of Nazis and white suprema­cists who were acquit­ted of plot­ting to bomb the Mur­rah build­ing in the 1980s. “In 1991, Andreas Strassmeir’s Amer­i­can attor­ney, the ubiq­ui­tous Kirk Lyons, vis­ited his client’s par­ents at their plush res­i­dence in Berlin. Lyons assured Gunter Strass­meir that his son was doing well in the United States. It was Lyons who helped arrange for Andreas to come to Amer­ica in the first place. Lyons also intro­duced his young Ger­man friend to the folks at Elo­him City.” (Ibid.; pp. 352–353.)

10. “On April 18, 1995, the day before the Okla­homa City attack, Kirk Lyons’s North Car­olina law office received a fifteen-minute phone call from Tim­o­thy McVeigh, who again was using an alias. McVeigh had already cased the fed­eral build­ing in Okla­homa City. The mili­tia move­ment went on high alert on the sec­ond anniver­sary of the Waco raid. That’s when McVeigh chose to attack, accord­ing to a fed­eral indict­ment, which left open the pos­si­bil­ity of a wider con­spir­acy involv­ing ‘oth­ers unknown.’” (Ibid.; p. 353.)

11. Accord­ing to Carol Howe (an ATF infor­mant who passed a lie-detector test), Strass­meir was the mas­ter­mind of the Okla­homa City bomb­ing and McVeigh was his pro­tégé. “ATF infor­mant Howe has gone so far as to peg Andreas Strass­meir as the prime insti­ga­tor of the bomb­ing She alleges that Strass­meir exerted an extra­or­di­nary influ­ence over McVeigh. Strass­meir, who has since moved back to his par­ents’ house in Berlin, denies any involve­ment in the Okla­homa City mas­sacre.” (Idem.)

12. Con­clud­ing the first side of the pro­gram, the broad­cast notes the con­di­tions under which the Nazi group “The Order” takes over the coun­try. After a series of nuclear ter­ror­ist inci­dents that dev­as­tate the coun­try and lead to a dec­la­ra­tion of mar­tial law, the group takes over. A desire to destroy the United States and wipe out “the Jews” unites the white suprema­cist move­ment and the Islam­o­fas­cists in a com­mon cause. “Last, and per­haps not least, every­one in the enclave is indis­putably White-we dealt sum­mar­ily with every ques­tion­able case-while out­side it is the usual godaw­ful assort­ment of White, mostly White, half-Whites, Gyp­sies, Chi­canos, Puerto Ricans, Jews, blacks, Ori­en­tals, Arabs, Per­sians, and every­thing else under the sun: the typ­i­cal, cos­mopoli­tan racial goulash one finds in every Amer­i­can met­ro­pol­i­tan area these days. Any­one who feels a need for a lit­tle ‘broth­er­hood,’ Jew­ish style, can leave our enclave. I doubt that many will feel the need.” (The Turner Diaries; p. 200.)

13. “Novem­ber 2. We had a long meet­ing this after­noon at which we were briefed on the lat­est national devel­op­ments and given new pri­or­i­ties for our local action pro­gram.” (Idem.)

14. “There has been remark­ably lit­tle change in the national sit­u­a­tion dur­ing the pat six weeks: the gov­ern­ment has been able to do very lit­tle to restore order in the dev­as­tated areas or to com­pen­sate for the dam­age done to the nation’s trans­porta­tion net­work, its power gen­er­at­ing and dis­tri­b­u­tion facil­i­ties, and the other essen­tial com­po­nents of the national econ­omy. The peo­ple are being left on their own to a very large extent, while the Sys­tem grap­ples with its own prob­lems, not the least of which is its renewed uncer­tainty over the reli­a­bil­ity of its mil­i­tary forces.” (Idem.)

15. “That lack of change is, in itself, very encour­ag­ing, because it means that the Sys­tem is not recov­er­ing the degree of con­trol over the coun­try which it exer­cised prior to Sep­tem­ber 8. The gov­ern­ment has sim­ply not been able to cope with the chaotic con­di­tions which now pre­vail through­out wide areas.” (Idem.)

16. “Our units have been doing every­thing they can in the way of sab­o­tage, of course, just for the pur­pose of keep­ing things desta­bi­lized. But Rev­o­lu­tion­ary Com­mand has appar­ently been wait­ing to see what sort of intermediate-term sit­u­a­tion would gel before decid­ing the next phase of the Organization’s strat­egy.” (Idem.)

17. As indi­cated by the title, the pro­gram focuses on points of com­mon­al­ity between Serpent’s Walk and The Turner Diaries. Both “nov­els” involve a Nazi takeover of the United States and both takeovers take place after the U.S. is dev­as­tated by ter­ror­ist inci­dents involv­ing weapons of mass destruc­tion. In Serpent’s Walk, the weapons of destruc­tion are genetically-engineered micro-organisms of appar­ently Russ­ian ori­gin. “The news they had picked up in Seat­tle was bad: many of the great East­ern cities were dead or dying; Hous­ton and Dal­las had been infected with a ghastly, bacteria-borne, botulin-like poi­son­ing. Sim­i­lar out­breaks were now being reported in Cleve­land and Cincin­nati and Pitts­burgh and Boston and Port­land and Salt Lake City and Miami and a dozen other places. The nation was being held together only by the most des­per­ate mea­sures imposed by fran­tic police, National Guard units, and the mil­i­tary. In Detroit, the FBI nabbed a man in the very act of emp­ty­ing a vial of bac­te­r­ial broth into a reser­voir; the man swal­lowed the stuff and then leaped into the water any­way. Detroit was now off-limits to any­body not wear­ing an N.B.C.-nuclear, bio­log­i­cal, and chem­i­cal warfare-suit. The Army esti­mated nearly a mil­lion deaths in Detroit already. The toxin was deliv­ered through the water sup­ply, but it killed more than those who drank it-and those who came into too-close con­tact with the drinkers as they vom­ited and coughed their lives away; wher­ever it col­lected, in holding-tanks and sew­ers, it fumed and bub­bled and emit­ted bacteria-laden mists. When a fire set off a sprin­kler sys­tem in a dis­count store in Cleve­land, a thou­sand peo­ple died. It was the same all over; Russia’s sci­ence had been almost as thor­ough as America’s in the megadeath depart­ment.” (Serpent’s Walk by ‘Ran­dolph D. Calver­hall;’ Copy­right 1991 [SC]; National Van­guard Books; 0–937944-05-X; p. 145.)

18. “New York, Chicago, and Wash­ing­ton were ceme­ter­ies. Los Ange­les, San Fran­cisco, Seat­tle, Den­ver, and cer­tain other West­ern cities had so far escaped. Per­haps the enemy’s dis­tri­b­u­tion sys­tem had failed on the West Coast. Per­haps it was just slower, and Death was still on its way. . .” (Idem.)

19. Note that “dis­pos­sessed Pales­tini­ans and Ira­ni­ans” were among those deliv­er­ing the tox­ins in this sce­nario. Note also the ref­er­ence to “Mor­gan, who served as the Amer­i­can rep­re­sen­ta­tive for one of the movement’s con­glom­er­ates.” This is a thinly-veiled ref­er­ence to the Bor­mann orga­ni­za­tion. “Who was spread­ing the tox­ins? The car­ri­ers were enter­ing the United States along the drug routes: Miami and the Gulf Coast, the Cana­dian bor­der and the deserts of the South­west. Mor­gan, who served as the Amer­i­can rep­re­sen­ta­tive for one of the movement’s con­glom­er­ates, had heard that most of these peo­ple were a mot­ley assort­ment: drug­gies with habits so heavy they would risk any­thing for a pop of smile-dust; the usual dis­pos­sessed Pales­tini­ans and Ira­ni­ans; crim­i­nals, psy­chopaths, and mad­men whose hatred and greed out­weighed their instinct for self-preservation; and mercs will­ing to esca­late war beyond any usual ‘civ­i­lized limit.’” (Ibid.; pp. 145–146.)

20. A major focal point of the pro­gram is the strate­gic manip­u­la­tion of Zion­ism, Israel and Jews as a scape­goat for the world’s prob­lems. As noted, the Under­ground Reich has links to the Israeli right-wing and-through the Bor­mann organization–the Zion­ist move­ment as a whole. The rather fan­ci­ful notion of “Zion­ist” con­trol of the gov­ern­ment is not lim­ited to Islam­o­fas­cist or white suprema­cist pro­pa­ganda. In a San Fran­cisco Chron­i­cle op-ed col­umn, a Bay Area law pro­fes­sor con­strues the very real pres­ence of pro-Israel, neo-conservative hawks in the Bush admin­is­tra­tion as the deter­min­ing fac­tor in the forth­com­ing Iraq adven­ture. This analy­sis is (in effect) a sub­tle manip­u­la­tion of the “Zion­ist Occu­pa­tion Gov­ern­ment [ZOG]” posited in Turner Diaries. The Bush admin­is­tra­tion and the Repub­li­can Party are any­thing but “Zion­ists.” By sup­port­ing the Israeli right-wing, they can (par­tially at least) neu­tral­ize the tra­di­tion­ally Demo­c­ra­tic Jew­ish vote and set up Israel for the anni­hi­la­tion long desired by the Under­ground Reich. In that con­text, one should note that a key ele­ment of the Repub­li­can Party con­sists of fun­da­men­tal­ist Chris­tians, who see the forth­com­ing adven­ture in Iraq as part of “The End Times.” The re-establishment of Israel, the con­ver­sion of as many Jews as pos­si­ble to Chris­tian­ity, “Armaged­don” and the anni­hi­la­tion of Israel are seen as the ful­fill­ment of Bib­li­cal “prophecy” and events herald­ing the Sec­ond Com­ing of Christ. “Why the deter­mi­na­tion to over­throw the Iraqi regime? One key is the spe­cial regard of the hawks for Israel’s right-wing ele­ments. A num­ber of senior Bush offi­cials, includ­ing Wol­fowitz, Feith and oth­ers, have strong affil­i­a­tions with the Likud Party of Israeli Prime Min­is­ter Ariel Sharon (as doc­u­mented by Bill and Kath­leen Chris­ti­son in the online mag­a­zine Coun­ter­punch). Feith and Defense Pol­icy Board mem­ber Richard Perle, for exam­ple, helped author a 1996 study for Israeli Prime Min­is­ter Ben­jamin Netanyahu describ­ing Hussein’s over­throw as ‘an impor­tant Israeli strate­gic objec­tive in its own right-[and] a means of foil­ing Syria’s regional ambi­tions.’ Inter­est­ingly, the study for the Israeli gov­ern­ment also advo­cated resort to pre-emptive strike-a theme now taken up by Pres­i­dent Bush.” (“Amer­i­can Jihad” by George Bisharat; San Fran­cisco Chron­i­cle; 2/13/2003; p. A27.)

21. “If an Iraqi attack on the United States is far-fetched, a reju­ve­nated Iraq could even­tu­ally alter the regional bal­ance of power now favor­able to Israel. Iraq is the only Arab state to com­bine oil wealth, water and a large pop­u­la­tion (more than 23 mil­lion), mak­ing it a poten­tial pow­er­house. War on Iraq would elim­i­nate, for the fore­see­able future, any obsta­cle to a dis­po­si­tion of the Israeli-Palestinian con­flict on terms that sat­isfy Israel’s ter­ri­to­r­ial ambi­tions on most or all of the West Bank.” (Idem.)

22. “Israel is qui­etly exul­tant at the turn in U.S. pol­icy, occa­sion­ally hint­ing that Iran or Syria should be next. Israeli Deputy Inte­rior Min­is­ter Gideon Ezra sug­gested to the Chris­t­ian Sci­ence Mon­i­tor in August that a U.S. attack on Iraq will help Israel impose a new order, with­out Yasser Arafat, in the Pales­tin­ian ter­ri­to­ries: ‘The more aggres­sive the attack is, the more it will help Israel against the Pales­tini­ans. The under­stand­ing would be that what is good to do in Iraq, is also good for here.’ A U.S. strike would ‘undoubt­edly deal a psy­cho­log­i­cal blow’ to the Pales­tini­ans and would help Israel vis-à-vis Syria, Ezra added.” (Idem.)

23. “Does this mean that we are going to war for Israel, rather than the United States?” (Idem.)

24. The focal point of the remain­der of the broad­cast is Otto von Bolschwing, one of the prin­ci­pal offi­cers in admin­is­ter­ing Hitler’s liq­ui­da­tion of the Jews. In addi­tion to his own sig­nif­i­cance, Von Bolschwing is note­wor­thy because Helene van Damm (a pro­tégé of Von Bolschwing’s) selected the lists of per­son­nel from which Ronald Reagan’s cab­i­net appoint­ments were made. It is Mr. Emory’s con­vic­tion that the Rea­gan admin­is­tra­tions (and the admin­is­tra­tions of both Georges Bush) are fronts for the “Under­ground Reich” and the remark­able and deadly Bor­mann organization.

25. Helene van Damm is a pro­tégé of Von Bolschwing. Key aspects of her back­ground sug­gest that her involve­ment with Von Bolschwing and her jour­ney to the United States were both con­ducted under the aus­pices of the Under­ground Reich and its infil­tra­tion of the U.S. intel­li­gence com­mu­nity. The Rein­hard Gehlen spy out­fit and the secu­rity direc­torate of the Bor­mann orga­ni­za­tion pro­vided the vehi­cle for much of this infil­tra­tion, as did Allen Dulles’ Cru­sade For Free­dom. Even when Gehlen was osten­si­bly work­ing for the U.S., he was still clear­ing his actions with admi­ral Von Doenitz (who suc­ceeded Hitler as the Ger­man head of state) and Franz Halder (who had been Gehlen’s chief-of-staff). This indi­cates that the Third Reich’s chain of com­mand was still in effect.

26. Sum­ma­riz­ing aspects of van Damm’s career, the pro­gram notes that she came to the United States after mar­ry­ing a mem­ber of the same mil­i­tary intel­li­gence unit in which Richard Clark (Reagan’s sec­ond national secu­rity advi­sor) had served. She divorced her hus­band shortly after com­ing to the U.S.-a com­mon strat­a­gem used by intel­li­gence ser­vices to move peo­ple across inter­na­tional bor­ders and estab­lish them as cit­i­zens. She even­tu­ally mar­ried Chris­t­ian van Damm and kept his last name, even after she divorced him. As of 1982, Chris­t­ian van Damm was serv­ing as the head of Bank of America’s La Paz (Bolivia) branch. (The ques­tion of whether Mr. van Damm may have been help­ing to bank some of the cocaine prof­its gen­er­ated by Klaus Bar­bie and his “Bride­grooms of Death” mer­ce­nar­ies is one that sug­gests itself)

27. The con­clud­ing sec­tion of the pro­gram deals with Otto von Bolschwing’s cyn­i­cal manip­u­la­tion of Zion­ism as a vehi­cle for alien­at­ing the Arabs and inflam­ing their anger toward the British. In effect, the Jews were being used as “agents prova­ca­teurs,” in order to win the Arabs’ sym­pa­thies over to the Axis. The cen­tral ques­tion to be con­sid­ered here is the extent to which the “neo-conservatives” referred to by Mr. Bisharat may have been included in Von Bolschwing pro­tégé van Damm’s list of Rea­gan appointees in order to scape­goat them at a future time. To what extent are Wol­fowitz & com­pany fall guys for the Under­ground Reich? “Eich­mann was replaced on the Mid­dle East­ern scene by a far more skilled intel­li­gence offi­cer, Otto Von Bolschwing. Before World War II, Von Bolschwing set up an import-export busi­ness in Pales­tine as a cover for his espi­onage ini­tia­tives. He was an edu­cated man from a good fam­ily and an enthu­si­as­tic sup­porter of Hitler. After the war, Von Bolschwing became one of Allen Dulles’s senior agents in the CIA.” (The Secret War Against the Jews: How West­ern Espi­onage Betrayed the Jew­ish Peo­ple; John Lof­tus and Mark Aarons; Copy­right 1994 [SC]; St. Martin’s Press; ISBN 0–312-15648–0; p. 46.)

28. It should be noted that Bush fam­ily busi­ness asso­ciate Allen Dulles brought Von Bolschwing to the United States. Dulles and British spy (and Nazi dou­ble agent) Jack Philby were instru­men­tal in help­ing Ibn Saud estab­lish Saudi Ara­bia. “Dulles helped Von Bolschwing emi­grate to Cal­i­for­nia, where he estab­lished a busi­ness asso­ci­a­tion with Helene Van Damm, later Ronald Reagan’s ambas­sador to Aus­tria. In later years, his busi­ness went bank­rupt and he was forced to sur­ren­der his Amer­i­can cit­i­zen­ship on the grounds that he was a Nazi war crim­i­nal. He was just the sort of fel­low to get along well with jack Philby. He hated Jews.” (Idem.)

29. “In the 1930’s, Otto Von Bolschwing was a real­ist. He knew full well that the Moslem big­ots would never accept even a token immi­gra­tion of Jews to Pales­tine. Philby agreed. After more than a decade of anti-Zionist pro­pa­ganda, qui­etly super­vised by the British secret ser­vice, the cli­mate was hardly recep­tive toward a home­land for the Jews in the Mid­dle East. Still, there was profit to be made in the attempt.” (Idem.)

30. “In any future war, Von Bolschwing said, the sup­port of the Moslem world was essen­tial to Hitler’s plans. Not to men­tion that Philby and Ibn Saud could make a healthy profit by secretly ensur­ing Germany’s sup­ply of oil. Hitler would guar­an­tee that the Moslems received favored sta­tus. Indeed, they later had their own SS divi­sion, raised, iron­i­cally, from among the Bosnian-Moslem pop­u­la­tion sub­jected to ‘eth­nic cleans­ing’ by the Serbs and Croats fifty years later.” (Idem.)

31. “The SS divi­sion was per­son­ally blessed by Philby’s old friend, the grand mufti of Jerusalem. The mufti had been Hitler’s hon­ored guest and was even taken on guided tours of the Nazi death camps. Hitler promised that when Ger­many won the war, he would guar­an­tee that the Arab states would be free of British colo­nial dom­i­na­tion. They would be inde­pen­dent states, and full allies with the Third Reich. All of Philby’s dreams could come to pass. All that was needed was a lit­tle push.” (Idem.)

32. “Von Bolschwing’s propo­si­tion was sim­ple. Philby should encour­age British sup­port for Zion­ist emi­gra­tion schemes, pen­e­trate the secret nego­ti­a­tions, and then leak them to the press, with the cer­tain knowl­edge of the pop­u­lar dis­con­tent that would result among Moslems. The Arab back­lash to a new British-Zionist ini­tia­tive might not drive the region into the arms of the Third Reich, but it would cer­tainly keep the oil-producing Arabs ‘neu­tral,’ but actu­ally tilt­ing toward the Nazis.” (Ibid.; pp. 46–47.)

33. “It was no secret that Ibn Saud had more than a lit­tle sym­pa­thy for the Ger­man posi­tion on the Zion­ist issue. His extreme anti-Jewish feel­ings were made clear to a British diplo­mat in 1937. The king said his ‘hatred for the Jews’ stemmed from ‘their per­se­cu­tion and rejec­tion’ of Christ and ‘their sub­se­quent rejec­tion’ of Muhammed. Ibn Saud added that ‘for a Mus­lim to kill a Jew [in war], or for him to be killed by a Jew, ensures him an imme­di­ate entry in Heaven and into the august pres­ence of God Almighty.” (Ibid.; p. 47.)

34. “Accord­ing to sev­eral of our sources, this was one of the aspects of Islam that most appealed to Philby. He had all sorts of schemes that could aid the Nazis, who meant busi­ness when it came to the Jews. Our sources say Jack obtained the king’s per­mis­sion to become a dou­ble agent for the Third Reich, pub­licly help­ing the Jews, pri­vately aid­ing the Nazis, always mak­ing a profit for the House of Saud and, nat­u­rally, him­self. The scheme appealed to Philby’s clan­des­tine nature. The more he worked to link Britain and Zion­ism pub­licly, the more dam­age he could do to the empire’s posi­tion in the Mid­dle East. . . .” (Idem.)

35. “In fact, the king and Jack were play­ing a nasty lit­tle game with the Jews. Despite their ‘dis­agree­ment’ over the par­ti­tion plan, in early 1939, Ibn Saud sent Philby to Lon­don to be on hand for the Pales­tine Round Table Con­fer­ence. It does seem rather strange that the king would send some­one whose views con­flicted so clearly with his own. Appar­ently, Philby’s true mis­sion was sab­o­tage.” (Idem.)

36. “In order to set all sides against each other, Philby devel­oped his own plan on the Pales­tine ques­tion, which he put to British offi­cials as well as to the Jews and Arabs. In Feb­ru­ary 1939, he had a secret lunch with [Chaim] Weiz­mann and [David] Ben-Gurion, and intro­duced the Zion­ist lead­ers to Fuad Hamza, Ibn Saud’s long-time for­eign affairs offi­cial. Philby offered the Zion­ists sub­stan­tial Jew­ish immi­gra­tion into Pales­tine if they would sup­port the coun­try com­ing under Saudi dom­i­na­tion.” (Ibid.; pp. 47–48.)

37. “Weiz­mann was blamed when the ‘secret’ plan was leaked to the press, and there was no fur­ther progress. As will be seen, all of Philby’s schemes with the Zion­ists had a sus­pi­cious habit of com­ing to noth­ing. There is a def­i­nite pat­tern of sab­o­tage, with the Zion­ists as ‘fall guys’ every time. Amaz­ingly, the Zion­ists stuck by Philby for nearly five crit­i­cal years, while he treated the game as an auc­tion.” (Ibid.; p. 48.)

38. In eval­u­at­ing the Bush admin­is­tra­tion, it is worth not­ing how many of its peo­ple were among those selected by Von Bolschwing pro­tégé Helene van Damm. One should not fail to note that the mar­tial law con­tin­gency plans were devised under the aus­pices of George Bush and the PCPG. These plans called for the dep­u­ti­za­tion of para­mil­i­tary right-wingers in the event of a dec­la­ra­tion of mar­tial law.
