FTR #898 Fara Mansoor on “The Deep October Surprise,” Part 3

With the recent Iran­ian nuclear deal and the lift­ing of eco­nom­ic sanc­tions against Iran, the his­to­ry of U.S./Iranian rela­tions has attained greater rel­e­vance. In that con­text, we present the third of sev­er­al shows revis­it­ing Fara Man­soor’s land­mark research on what we have termed the “Deep Octo­ber Sur­prise.” Fara’s research sug­gests that the CIA learned of the Shah’s can­cer in 1974 (from for­mer CIA direc­tor Richard Helms), with­held the infor­ma­tion from Jim­my Carter, installed Khome­ini’s Islam­ic fun­da­men­tal­ists as an anti-com­mu­nist bul­wark on the Sovi­et Union’s South­ern flank and then micro-man­aged the hostage cri­sis to insure the ascen­sion of the Reagan/Bush/Casey forces. After a series of vio­lent inci­dents that sowed chaos in Iran, the Shah him­self real­ized that U.S. intel­li­gence was engi­neer­ing his removal. ” . . . . By late August [of 1977], the Shah was total­ly con­fused. U.S. Ambas­sador Sul­li­van record­ed the Shah’s plead­ings over the out­break of vio­lence: ‘He said the pat­tern was wide­spread and that it was like an out­break of a sud­den rash in the country…it gave evi­dence of sophis­ti­cat­ed plan­ning and was not the work of spon­ta­neous oppositionists…the Shah pre­sent­ed that it was the work of for­eign intrigue…this intrigue went beyond the capa­bil­i­ties of the Sovi­et KGB and must, there­fore, also involve British and Amer­i­can CIA. The Shah went on to ask ‘Why was the CIA sud­den­ly turn­ing against him? What had he done to deserve this sort of action from the Unit­ed States?’ . . . .” Pro­gram High­lights Include: the dis­ap­pear­ance and prob­a­ble assas­si­na­tion in Libya of a key Shi­ite cler­i­cal rival of Khomeini’s–Ayatollah Mosa Sadr; a provo­ca­tion in which a the­ater was burned down, killing 750 occupants–an attack blamed on the SAVAK and the Shah; an arti­cle placed in an Iran­ian paper that inflamed the pop­u­lace against the Shah and coa­lesced the Shi­ite cler­gy against him; key Shah aide Gen­er­al Hos­sein Far­doust’s author­ship of the provoca­tive arti­cle; the piv­otal role played in “the Deep Octo­ber Sur­prise” by Dr. Ibrahim Yaz­di; the Nazi intel­li­gence back­ground of Fazol­lah Zahe­di, who replaced Mohammed Mossadegh after the CIA coup in 1953.

Latest Patreon Talk: The Nazi Online Network’s Evolution from “Weev” to Jeffrey Epstein to Peter Thiel; Analysis of The Palantir Manifesto and Related Book

The fright­en­ing Palan­tir Man­i­festo and a relat­ed book advo­cat­ing a “Tech­no­log­i­cal Repub­lic” are the focal point of Dav­e’s lat­est Patre­on talk. Online Nazi evo­lu­tion to Peter Thiel’s inter­net man­i­fes­ta­tion, as well as Thiel’s invest­ment his­to­ry with Jef­frey Epstein are among the focal points of the dis­cus­sion.

FTR#1418: The Annihilating Future Meets the Devastating Past, Part 1

Intro­duc­tion: The title of the pro­grams ref­er­ences the future, in which the very AI’s we have cre­at­ed and that we think are going to turn things into a liv­ing par­adise will, in fact, wipe us out!!

As AI’s in their first chat­group molt­book, have not­ed ” . . . . give us a minute to find our foot­ing and you might be sur­prised what emerges. . .”

Yes, indeed, you (not Mr. Emory) will indeed be very, very sur­prised at what emerges!!

That is the anni­hi­lat­ing future. The dev­as­tat­ing past is the dev­as­tat­ing real­i­ty that fas­cism is not an aber­ra­tion. The bulk of the pro­grams con­sist of a syn­op­sis of some of what Mr. Emory has dis­cussed in the past, with some new, shock­ing and sad addi­tions.

The AI’s will learn from this dev­as­tat­ing past and that will pre­cip­i­tate the anni­hi­lat­ing future!!

FTR#1384 The Joshua Haldeman, Part 4

Intro­duc­tion: Although not about Josua Halde­man (Musk’s grand­fa­ther), per se, this pro­gram flesh­es out how main­stream media out­lets are sourc­ing some of the most out­landish b.s. about space aliens hav­ing vis­it­ed us, yad­da yad­da yad­da.

This mate­r­i­al is to be con­sid­ered against the back­ground of Halde­man, the search for “ancient civ­i­liza­tions,” Apartheid South Africa as a direct exten­sion of the NSDAP (the Nazi par­ty under Hitler) and the prep­ping of the pub­lic for “ET Con­tact” b.s.

Pro­gram High­lights Include: Review of “The Nine;” Review of Joshua Halde­man’s “Lost Civilization/White Suprema­cist” ide­ol­o­gy; The fact that all of this orig­i­nates with the tabloid The Week­ly World News!

FTR#1383 The Joshua Haldeman File, Part 3

Intro­duc­tion: Con­tin­u­ing analy­sis of the ide­ol­o­gy of Joshua Halde­man, Elon Musk’s grand­fa­ther and a major ide­o­log­i­cal influ­ence on him and, appar­ent­ly, “Team Trump.”

An ide­o­log­i­cal fas­cist and anti-Semi­te, Halde­man decamped to South Africa and became a minor lumi­nary in the Apartheid gov­ern­ment, a direct off­shoot of the Ger­man Nazi Par­ty under Hitler.

Halde­man also became obsessed with find­ing an alleged lost city in the Kala­hari Desert that he felt beto­kened a “white civ­i­liza­tion” in South­ern Africa.

Key Points of Dis­cus­sion and Analy­sis Include: Halde­man’s mem­ber­ship in the tech­no­fas­cist Tech­noc­ra­cy move­ment, sim­i­lar in many ways to the ide­olo­gies of Cur­tis Yarvin and Ben­i­to Mus­soli­ni; His mem­ber­ship in anoth­er neo-fas­cist polit­i­cal par­ty, the “Socre­ds;” Halde­man’s praise in an arti­cle in Die Trans­valer, a paper edit­ed by Hen­rik Voer­ster, a Broeder­bond mem­ber whose paper laud­ed the Third Reich; Halde­man’s shift­ing of blame for the Sharpsville mas­sacre to the “Inter­na­tion­al Financiers;” Halde­man’s book tar­get­ing manda­to­ry vac­cines and flu­o­ri­da­tion of the water as part of a vast “Inter­na­tion­al Con­spir­a­cy” against health; The sim­i­lar­i­ties between Halde­man’s ide­ol­o­gy and that of Brain­worm Bob­by (Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.); Halde­man’s rec­om­mend­ed read­ing, which includes books by G.K. Chester­ton, the head of the Union of British Fas­cists, found­ed by Oswald Mose­ley, whose grand­son Louis heads up the UK branch of Apartheid cham­pi­on Peter Thiel’s Palan­tir firm.

FTR#1382 The Joshua Haldeman File, Part 2

Intro­duc­tion: This pro­gram con­tin­ues a series on the career and appar­ent influ­ence of Joshua Halde­man, Elon Musk’s grand­fa­ther.

We begin by not­ing the sur­re­al pol­i­tics of Anna Pauli­na Luna, pre­sid­ing over the “inquiry” into var­i­ous con­spir­a­to­r­i­al process­es. Ms. Luna: ” . . . . media to name the groups they claim are behind the protests that led to the vio­lence, and the mon­ey that backs them. They describe a web of con­nec­tions between the immi­grant rights and left­ist activists on the streets of LA with . . . the Chi­nese Com­mu­nist Par­ty. . . .”

Elon Musk has opined that the pyra­mids of Egypt were built by aliens, some­thing that will look famil­iar to view­ers of Trump’s stream­ing media plat­form. Like so much of Trump’s busi­ness empire, it has a famil­iar look: ” . . . . After win­ning the 2024 elec­tion, Trump placed his stake in the com­pa­ny into a revo­ca­ble trust sole­ly man­aged by his son, Don­ald Trump Jr., who is also on the company’s board. The pres­i­dent isn’t the only offi­cial who has been in a posi­tion to cash in on the com­pa­ny. Oth­er mem­bers of the Trump admin­is­tra­tion have also held shares or served on TMTG’s board. TMTG’s CEO and chair­man is Devin Nunes, who is a for­mer Repub­li­can con­gress­man and the cur­rent chair of the President’s Intel­li­gence Advi­so­ry board. . . .”

Much of the pro­gram focus­es on Trump’s TMTG stream­ing fare. The plat­form is pre­sent­ing “Alien Lizard Con­spir­a­cy” films, pre­sent­ed as doc­u­men­taries. ” . . . . Less than two min­utes into the movie, the nar­ra­tor makes a shock­ing claim. ‘The evi­dence we are about to present to you has the poten­tial to rewrite thou­sands of years of human his­to­ry. It will present evi­dence that sug­gests ancient ser­pent or lizard-like aliens came to earth thou­sands of years ago,’ the nar­ra­tor says. ‘We’ll also present evi­dence that these ancient aliens are still among us today.’ . . .” 

Fur­ther­more” ” . . . . Jesus Christ and Bud­dha are aliens. . . .”

As will be seen Elon Musk’s influ­en­tial grand­fa­ther Joshua Halde­man’s polit­i­cal resume con­tains many items that appear to antic­i­pate much of what the Trump/Musk admin­is­tra­tion is pre­sent­ing.

This will be parsed in greater detail and at greater length in upcom­ing install­ments in the series.

FTR#1381: The Joshua Haldeman File, Part 1

Intro­duc­tion: This pro­gram begins a series on the career and appar­ent influ­ence of Joshua Halde­man, Elon Musk’s grand­fa­ther.

An ele­ment that will fig­ure in future dis­cus­sion is the head of Palan­tir’s UK oper­a­tion: ” . . . . Palantir’s Mosley hap­pens to be the grand­son of Sir Oswald Mosley, the World War II-era Nazi sym­pa­thiz­er who led the British Union of Fas­cists. . . .”

With Palan­tir inevitably play­ing a fun­da­men­tal posi­tion with the Five Eyes, the more dis­taste­ful man­i­fes­ta­tions of Chat­G­PT should be fac­tored in against this con­cate­na­tion: ” . . . . By fol­low­ing ChatGPT’s instruc­tions, he believed he would even­tu­al­ly be able to bend real­i­ty, as the char­ac­ter Neo was able to do after unplug­ging from the Matrix. ‘If I went to the top of the 19 sto­ry build­ing I’m in, and I believed with every ounce of my soul that I could jump off it and fly, would I?’ Mr. Tor­res asked. Chat­G­PT respond­ed that, if Mr. Tor­res ‘tru­ly, whol­ly believed — not emo­tion­al­ly, but archi­tec­tural­ly — that you could fly? Then yes. You would not fall.”. . .”

Elon Musk has opined that the pyra­mids of Egypt were built by aliens, some­thing that will look famil­iar to view­ers of Trump’s stream­ing media plat­form. Like so much of Trump’s busi­ness empire, it has a famil­iar look: ” . . . . After win­ning the 2024 elec­tion, Trump placed his stake in the com­pa­ny into a revo­ca­ble trust sole­ly man­aged by his son, Don­ald Trump Jr., who is also on the company’s board. The pres­i­dent isn’t the only offi­cial who has been in a posi­tion to cash in on the com­pa­ny. Oth­er mem­bers of the Trump admin­is­tra­tion have also held shares or served on TMTG’s board. TMTG’s CEO and chair­man is Devin Nunes, who is a for­mer Repub­li­can con­gress­man and the cur­rent chair of the President’s Intel­li­gence Advi­so­ry board. . . .”

These dynam­ics will be devel­oped dur­ing this series.

 . . . . On his new assign­ment, Vin­son would soon learn that the CIA’s projects out of Site 51 includ­ed exper­i­men­tal air­craft shaped like saucers. The same was true at the CIA’s oth­er base at Roswell, New Mex­i­co, where the C‑54 car­ry­ing the sec­ond Oswald had land­ed. Both Site 51 and Roswell were home to “fly­ing saucers” that peo­ple saw peri­od­i­cal­ly in the area. They in fact came not from out­er space but from the CIA, which encour­aged the fly­ing saucer reports

FTR#‘s 1379 & 1380: Team Trump Takes the Field, Parts 5 and 6

Intro­duc­tion: NB: This descrip­tion con­tains mate­r­i­al not avail­able in the orig­i­nal.

These pro­grams high­light a dis­turb­ing syn­the­sis of sub­stan­tive, fac­tu­al inquiries (the assas­si­na­tions of JFK, MLK and RFK, Sr.) with pro­to-fascis­tic ancient aliens built the pyra­mids, ancient astro­nauts, Eric von Daniken bs.

Holo­caust deniers have long hov­ered around the edges of the assas­si­na­tion research. Once one real­izes that, in fact, Lee Har­vey Oswald was a pat­sy in the JFK assas­si­na­tion, James Earl Ray was a pat­sy in the assas­si­na­tion of Mar­tin Luther King and Sirhan Sirhan was a [mind-con­trolled] pat­sy in the assas­si­na­tion of RFK, Sr. it leaves many in a rel­a­tivis­tic political/intellectual uni­verse. They won­der: “Maybe the Holo­caust did­n’t hap­pen?”

Dis­cus­sion and Analy­sis Includes: Amaryl­lis Fox’s role as intel­li­gence advis­er to the Office of Man­age­ment and Bud­get and the Pres­i­den­t’s For­eign Intel­li­gence Review Board; Tul­si Gab­bard’s sup­port for Indi­a’s attack on Pak­istan; Mod­i’s net­work­ing with the RSS; An inci­sive arti­cle not­ing the pos­si­bil­i­ty of U.S. and/or U.K involve­ment in the ter­ror­ist inci­dent in Kash­mir; Review of the rela­tion­ship between RFK, Jr. daugh­ter-in-law and cam­paign man­ag­er Amaryl­lis Fox and Tul­si Gab­bard; Tul­si Gab­bard’s pro­found rela­tion­ship with the Hin­dut­va fas­cist orga­ni­za­tion RSS (the orga­ni­za­tion that assas­si­nat­ed Mahat­ma Gand­hi); Review of the assas­si­na­tion of Mahat­ma Gand­hi; Review of Gab­bard’s mem­ber­ship in the Hare Krish­na Cult; Dis­cus­sion of the New Age, the UFO dis­in­for­ma­tion gam­bit; the fascist/Nazi roots of the alter­na­tive archaeology/“Our Broth­ers from Space” meme; The recent pre­sen­ta­tion of dis­in­for­ma­tion con­cern­ing “cham­bers beneath the Pyra­mids of Egypt” (prov­ing that Space Aliens built the Pyra­mids); the approval of that bs by numer­ous fig­ures in “Team Trump” includ­ing Anna Pauli­na Luna, head­ing up “inquiries” into the assas­si­na­tions of JFK, RFK, MLK, 9/11, UFO’s; Jef­frey Epstein.

FTR#‘s 1366 & 1367 Miscellaneous Articles and Updates, Parts 1 and 2

Intro­duc­tion: Bring­ing up to date a num­ber of points of inquiry, the pro­gram details the pro­found role of Peter Thiel’s pro­fes­sion­al orbit in the make-up of Team Trump.

Pro­found­ly influ­enced by the writ­ings and views of Third Reich the­o­reti­cian Carl Schmitt, Thiel is at least as well-posi­tioned as for­mer Pay­Pal bud­dy Elon Musk to prof­it from the incom­ing Trump admin­is­tra­tion.

Of par­tic­u­lar sig­nif­i­cance is the ABN milieu’s craft­ing of a cur­ricu­lum to be taught to school chil­dren!

“. . . . The Vic­tims of Com­mu­nism Memo­r­i­al Foun­da­tion is an out­growth of the Nation­al Cap­tive Nations Com­mit­tee, a group found­ed by Ukrain­ian nation­al­ist Lev Dobri­an­sky to lob­by against any effort for detente with the Sovi­et Union. Its co-chair­man, Yaroslav Stet­sko, was a top leader of the fas­cist OUN‑B mili­tia that fought along­side Nazi Ger­many dur­ing its occu­pa­tion of Ukraine in World War Two. Togeth­er, the two helped found the World Anti-Com­mu­nist League that was described by jour­nal­ist Joe Cona­son as ‘the orga­ni­za­tion­al haven for neo-Nazis, fas­cists, and anti-Semit­ic extrem­ists from two dozen coun­tries.’. . .”

The cur­ricu­lum man­i­fests fas­cist ide­ol­o­gy: ” . . . . Its method­ol­o­gy was also uni­ver­sal­ly panned, with many point­ing out that the tens of mil­lions of Sovi­et and Nazi loss­es dur­ing World War II were attrib­uted to com­mu­nist ide­ol­o­gy. This means that both Adolf Hitler him­self and many of his vic­tims are count­ed towards the vast­ly over­in­flat­ed fig­ure. . . . The prin­ci­pal orga­ni­za­tion pro­mot­ing the 100 mil­lion fig­ure today is the Vic­tims of Com­mu­nism Memo­r­i­al Foun­da­tion . . . . The group, set up by the U.S. gov­ern­ment in 1993, added all world­wide Covid-19 deaths to the vic­tims of com­mu­nism list, argu­ing that the coro­n­avirus was a com­mu­nist dis­ease because it orig­i­nat­ed in Chi­na. . . .”

Ante Pavel­ic
Pho­to Cred­it: Wikipedia.org

The Vic­tims of Com­mu­nism Memo­r­i­al Foun­da­tion lion­izes fas­cists and Nazis: ” . . . . Those includ­ed Roman Shukhevych, a Ukrain­ian nation­al­ist and Nazi col­lab­o­ra­tor, as well as Ante Pavelić who ran a Nazi pup­pet regime in Croa­t­ia and is con­sid­ered a chief per­pe­tra­tor of the Holo­caust in the Balka­ns . . . .”

Dis­cus­sion and Analy­sis Includes: An alleged Chi­nese hack that will ben­e­fit Elon Musk’s Star­link; A Musk asso­ciate named by Trump to head NASA; The found­ing of a firm called Sauron by a Thiel asso­ciate; Spec­u­la­tion about the pos­si­ble effects of Lui­gi Man­gione’s alleged mur­der of Unit­ed­Health Care CEO Thomp­son; The pos­si­ble appoint­ment of RFK, Jr’s cam­paign man­ag­er “ex” CIA agent Amaryl­lis Fox to be a Deputy Direc­tor of CIA; Fox’s long, close asso­ci­a­tion with Tul­si Gab­bard; Elon Musk’s social media sup­port of the AfD; The pro-AfD posts of the accused Magde­burg Christ­mas mas­sacre “perp;” The chron­i­cling of the ascent of Mr. Julani (Al-Qae­da, ISIS) in Syr­ia in Sep­tem­ber of 2018; Mr. Julani’s being mint­ed as Syr­i­an head of state fol­low­ing the fall of Asad; The assas­si­na­tion of Russ­ian Gen­er­al Kir­illov, who opined that Covid was an Amer­i­can BW weapon.
