FTR#1422 The Walls Came Tumbling Down: Nazis, Fascists and The 9/11 Attacks, Part 2

Intro­duc­tion: Con­tin­u­ing dis­cus­sion from our pre­vi­ous pro­gram, we ana­lyze the sec­ond of two arti­cles Mr. Emory has tak­en out from behind the pay­wall of his Patre­on plat­form.

The pro­gram ana­lyzes the pro­found Ger­man and Nazi links to Mohammed Atta and his milieux in both Ham­burg, Ger­many and the Unit­ed States.

In addi­tion, the broad­cast sets forth the pos­si­bil­i­ty of a cyber false-flag ter­ror­ist inci­dent, with the CIA’s cyber-war­fare capa­bil­i­ty specif­i­cal­ly designed to mim­ic Iran­ian hack­ers, among oth­ers.

Key Points of Analy­sis and Dis­cus­sion Include: Analy­sis of Ernst Uhrlau’s curi­ous career path­way; Uhrlau’s head­ing of the Ham­burg police force when it was sur­veilling Mohammed Atta and the ter­ror­ist cells in Ham­burg; Uhrlau’s appoint­ment as spe­cial intel­li­gence advi­sor to Hel­mu Kohl; Uhrlau’s head­ing of the BND; Review of the BND and its Nazi char­ac­ter and ori­gin; Uhrlau’s purg­ing of the SS and Gestapo back­ground of 250 BND offi­cers; Mohamed Atta’s spon­sor­ship by the Carl Duis­berg Gesellschafft; Atta’s asso­ci­a­tion with Ger­mans in Flori­da; Atta’s asso­ci­a­tion with the off­spring of promi­nent Ger­man indus­tri­al­ists in Flori­da; Oper­a­tional links between SICO and unpub­lished accounts of the Clearstream net­work, con­trolled by the Deutsche Borse (the Ger­man stock exchange); The liq­ui­da­tion of finan­cial enti­ties by Fran­cois Genoud asso­ciate Bau­doin Dunand, fel­low SICO direc­tor Charles Rochat and Iran-Con­tra oper­a­tive Willard Zuck­er; The dis­tinct pos­si­bil­i­ty that the estab­lish­ment of the 16 unpub­lished  Clearstream accounts opened by SICO in the spring of 2001, the liq­ui­da­tion of key finan­cial enti­ties by Dunand, Zuck­er et al were the vehi­cle for Rudi Dekkers’ sud­den eco­nom­ic largesse in the fall of 2001.


FTR#1421 The Walls Came Tumbling Down: Nazis, Fascists and the 9/11 Attacks

Intro­duc­tion: With hos­til­i­ties in the Iran war esca­lat­ing, the pos­si­bil­i­ty of a false-flag ter­ror­ist inci­dent is one we must con­tem­plate. In that con­text, the real­i­ty of the 9/11 attacks should be care­ful­ly weighed. The cen­tral role of Nazis and fas­cists in the attacks, as well as the links of that fas­cist milieu to the high­est lev­els of the George W. Bush admin­is­tra­tion are fun­da­men­tal to an under­stand­ing of that event.

These arti­cles were tak­en out from behind the pay­wall on Mr. Emory’s Patre­on plat­form.


FTR#1420: The Annihilating Future Meets the Devastating Past, Part 3

Intro­duc­tion: Con­tin­u­ing dis­cus­sion of AI and what it can and can­not do, what it might do, what the peo­ple who con­trol it might do, what the peo­ple who con­trol it have done in the past, this pro­gram con­tin­ues to explore that dynam­ic.

After dis­cussing how AI CEO’s are delib­er­ate­ly us about AI’s, the pro­gram relates that Bernie Sanders is alarmed over AI.

Ele­ments of Dis­cus­sion and Analy­sis Include: The role of John Fos­ter Dulles and Allen Dulles in help­ing to forge the polit­i­cal and inter­na­tion­al alliances that led to the fund­ing of the Third Reich; The fact that 70% of the invest­ment cap­i­tal in Nazi Ger­many came from the U.S.; The role of Sul­li­van & Cromwell’s John Fos­ter and Allen Dulles in arrang­ing the invest­ment of Amer­i­can mon­ey into the Third Reich; The role of John Fos­ter Dulles and Allen Dulles in frus­trat­ing Oper­a­tion Safe­haven, the effort to inter­dict the Nazi flight cap­i­tal pro­gram; The pri­ma­ry role of the Bush fam­i­ly in fund­ing the Third Reich; The com­plex rela­tion­ship between Ger­man indus­tri­al­ist Fritz Thyssen, the Bank Voor Han­del en Scheep­vaart and the Union Bank­ing Cor­po­ra­tion in the “mon­ey go round” involved in mask­ing Bush fam­i­ly invest­ment in the Third Reich; The curi­ous deaths of jour­nal­ist Eddie Roev­er and the man­ag­er of the Bank Voor Han­del en Scheep­vaart; The gen­e­sis of the Nazi branch of the GOP, stem­ming from Allen Dulles’ rela­tion­ship to Richard Nixon; The role of Ronald Rea­gan as the chief spokesper­son for the “Op” that front­ed for the GOP’s Nazi wing; The role of William Casey in cre­at­ing the immi­gra­tion pro­grams that led to the cre­ation of the GOP’s Nazi wing; The role of George H.W. Bush in mak­ing the GOP’s Nazi wing a per­ma­nent part of the GOP; The role of Richard Nixon in chang­ing U.S. immi­gra­tion law to per­mit SS offi­cers to emi­grate to the U.S.; The cozy rela­tion­ship of Allen Dulles, the CIA and Sen­a­tor Prescott Bush (Sr.), the man “over­see­ing” the CIA; The speech by U.S. Sec­re­tary of State Mar­co Rubio at the Munich Secu­ri­ty Con­fer­ence in lament­ing the out­come of World War II.


FTR#1419: The Annihilating Future Meets the Devastating Past, Part 2

Intro­duc­tion: Con­tin­u­ing dis­cus­sion from our last pro­gram, this broad­cast notes that AI’s test­ed in recent war game sim­u­la­tions repeat­ed­ly rec­om­mend­ed nuclear strikes.

This demon­strates Mr. Emory’s con­cerns that AI’s will ape human anni­hi­la­tion­ist ten­den­cies. After review­ing the Joint Chiefs’ dis­ap­point­ment with Pres­i­dent Kennedy’s reluc­tance to autho­rize a nuclear first strike on the Sovi­et Union, Dave presents the real his­to­ry of the Amer­i­can pow­er elite’s deep involve­ment with, and implic­it endorse­ment of, Nazism.

We also note than Gavin Kliger–a DOGE vet­er­an and social media fan-boy of Nazis and White Supremacists–has been placed in charge of AI’s for the Pen­ta­gon.

This is the real Amer­i­can polit­i­cal and his­tor­i­cal man­i­fes­ta­tion that AI’s will repli­cate and/or take as a role mod­el.

Dis­cus­sion and Analy­sis Includes: U.S. incor­po­ra­tion of Third Reich chief of staff Gen­er­al Franz Halder and Com­man­der Der Herre Adolf Heusinger to craft a san­i­tized, pro-Nazi ver­sion of Amer­i­can mil­i­tary his­to­ry of Nazi Ger­many; Review of Heusinger’s role as the top NATO mil­i­tary com­man­der; Review of Heusinger’s re-cre­ation of the Gestapo under Amer­i­can tute­lage; Review of Allen Dulles’ trea­so­nous nego­ti­a­tions with a rep­re­sen­ta­tive of Nazi SD chief Wal­ter Schel­len­berg; Review of Dulles’ trea­so­nous liai­son between Gen­er­al Elec­tric and SS offi­cer Wern­er von Braun and Nazi rock­et gen­er­al Wal­ter Dorn­berg­er; Review of Allen Dulles’ pri­ma­ry role in spawn­ing the incor­po­ra­tion of the Gehlen “Org’s” SS cadres into the CIA; Nazi dou­ble agent Charles Ellis’ role in craft­ing U.S. post-WWII intel­li­gence, which incor­po­rat­ed the Gehlen orga­ni­za­tion; Review of Allen Dulles’ invest­ment of huge amounts of U.S. cap­i­tal in Nazi Ger­many (70% of the invest­ment cap­i­tal in Third Reich indus­try came from the U.S.).


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!!


Patreon Tutorial about “The Ahl Bidness”

Mr. Emory ini­ti­at­ed what will become a reg­u­lar fea­ture of his Patre­on plat­form: tuto­ri­als. Build­ing on the Standard‑I.G. Agree­ment of 1929, the analy­sis details cen­tral­ly impor­tant, large­ly unknown cor­po­rate rela­tion­ships that dom­i­nate the polit­i­cal and eco­nom­ic land­scape of our world. As peo­ple with an oblig­a­tion to our descen­dants, we have the respon­si­bil­i­ty to pre­serve a record of the events lead­ing to the col­lapse of our social and polit­i­cal milieu. There is no bet­ter way of ful­fill­ing that oblig­a­tion than by obtain­ing the lat­est flash dri­ve, con­tain­ing all of Dav­e’s 45+ years on the air and a library of old anti-fas­cist books.

What Do The Attack on Pearl Harbor, The Burnishing of George Bush (Senior)‘s Reputation, The Assassination of John Lennon and The War on Social Security Have in Common?

In the lat­est talk on Mr. Emory’s Patre­on plat­form, he sets forth a com­plex, con­spir­a­to­r­i­al web link­ing the attack on Pearl Har­bor, the scape­goat­ing of FDR for the attack, the killing of John Lennon, as well as Yoko Ono’s father’s role as a Japan­ese Naval espi­onage pay­mas­ter.

“The Walls Came Tumbling Down: Nazis, Fascists and the 9/11 Attacks,” Parts 1 and 2

With the anniver­sary of the 9/11 attacks upon us, Mr. Emory unpacks two arti­cles from his Patre­on plat­form: “The Walls Came Tum­bling Down: Nazis, Fas­cists and the 9/11 Attacks” Parts 1 and 2. These arti­cles and Dav­e’s cor­nu­copia of anti-fas­cist talks, arti­cles and Zoom inter­views with oth­er experts are fun­da­men­tal to under­stand­ing the hor­ror show unfold­ing around us.

FTR#1320 “La Plus Ca Change. . . .”

This pro­gram is a “blast from the past.” Record­ed just past mid­night on 9/20/2001, this broad­cast is a [some­what dis­tort­ed] con­ver­sa­tion record­ed via tele­phone hookup.

Speak­ing with the late Roy of Hol­ly­wood, Mr. Emory parsed some of the intel­li­gence infor­ma­tion that was avail­able a lit­tle over a week after the attacks.

The pro­gram con­cludes with an eerie state­ment by Roy, fore­shad­ow­ing what is tak­ing place in the Mid­dle East today.


FTR#‘s 1309 and 1310 Deep Politics and the Death of Iris Chang, Parts 3 and 4

These broad­casts sup­ple­ment FTR#‘s 509, 1107 and 1108.

Sig­nif­i­cant sec­tions of the lat­ter two broad­casts are recapped in these pro­grams and this descrip­tion.

Key Points of Dis­cus­sion and Analy­sis Include:

1.–Iris Chang’s moth­er, Ying-Ying Chang, could not rule out the “dark con­spir­a­cy” that Iris was fac­ing. Ying-Ying’s point of view was shaped, in part, by Steven Clemons’ obser­va­tions.
2.–In an appen­dix titled “Requiem for Iris Chang,” Steven Clemons not­ed the alleged “sui­cide” of his asso­ciate Juzo Ita­mi, who was bat­tling the same forces as Iris Chang. “I have nev­er bought the sto­ry about Juzo Ita­mi, who was at war in his films with the Japan­ese right-wing crowd and yakuza.”
3.–Iris’ best-known work, “The Rape of Nanking”, inspired a con­gres­sion­al res­o­lu­tion sup­port­ing Japan­ese com­pen­sa­tion for those who had been com­pelled to labor as slaves and slave pros­ti­tutes or “com­fort women.”
4.–Iris was work­ing on a book and doc­u­men­tary film project about the sur­vivors of the Bataan Death March. Some of those vet­er­ans had been used as slave labor­ers by Japan­ese cor­po­ra­tions dur­ing the war. The Bataan Death March vet­er­ans were among those who sued the Japan­ese cor­po­ra­tions that had enslaved them.
5.–The pre­sid­ing judge ruled against the vet­er­ans and for the Japan­ese cor­po­ra­tions. On the day of Iris’ “sui­cide” Gov­er­nor Arnold Schwarzeneg­ger was meet­ing with Japan­ese busi­ness­men to pro­mote Cal­i­for­nia-Japan­ese trade.
6.–In ear­ly Sep­tem­ber of 2001, Iris spoke at a con­fer­ence assem­bled to protest the cel­e­bra­tion of the 50th anniver­sary of the U.S./Japanese treaty of 1951 (nego­ti­at­ed by John Fos­ter Dulles). Iris called “the San Fran­cis­co Peace Treaty a trav­es­ty of jus­tice, a betray­al of our own Amer­i­can vet­er­ans.” Recall the con­gres­sion­al res­o­lu­tion passed in the after­math of, and because of The Rape of Nanking.
7.–After watch­ing a spir­it­ed dis­cus­sion between Iris and the Japan­ese ambas­sador to the U.S., a friend of Iris’ father advised her to hire a body­guard.
8.–As will be not­ed at greater length below, Iris was very crit­i­cal of the George W. Bush admin­is­tra­tion and had writ­ten sev­er­al arti­cles crit­i­cal of his poli­cies.
9.–Iris was very crit­i­cal of the George W. Bush admin­is­tra­tion, and had tak­en stances against many fea­tures of his for­eign pol­i­cy, Bush’s inva­sion of Iraq in par­tic­u­lar. Iris had long opposed all forms of racism in this coun­try.
10.–Sadly, many of those close to Iris dis­missed her fears con­cern­ing the government’s tar­get­ing of her and the over­lap­ping ide­o­log­i­cal ani­mos­i­ty and tar­get­ing of her by the Japan­ese right-wing. The his­tor­i­cal and oper­a­tional over­lap between the two is fun­da­men­tal and is explored in some of the mate­r­i­al below.
11.–When she trav­eled to Louisville, Ken­tucky to inter­view sur­vivors of the Bataan Death March, she felt she was under phys­i­cal sur­veil­lance and harass­ment. We note below that Ken­tucky was a place where Bush con­fi­dant William Stamps Far­ish III had pow­er­ful con­nec­tions.
12.–During her book tour for The Rape of Nanking, Iris was approached by some­one she felt was recruit­ing her. He said “You will be safer to join us.” Was this and attempt at recruit­ment by the CIA?
13.–We repeat the infor­ma­tion in #11, for pur­pos­es of empha­sis.
14.–Iris was con­vinced to her dying day that she was the focal point of hos­til­i­ty from the Bush admin­is­tra­tion. A remake of the movie The Manchuri­an Can­di­date height­ened her anx­i­ety. Her arti­cles crit­i­cal of the Bush admin­is­tra­tion and, as we have and shall see, the over­lap­ping dynam­ics of her work on The Rape of Nanking and Gold War­riors fur­ther deep­ened her per­il. She first pur­chased a firearm for pro­tec­tion and was hop­ing that John Ker­ry would defeat Bush in 2004.
15.–Despite the fact that Iris’ corpse was found in her car in the ear­ly morn­ing, her par­ents weren’t noti­fied of her death until almost mid­night. Why?
16.–Iris’ corpse was dis­cov­ered ear­ly in the morn­ing with her head against the driver’s side win­dow, her hands crossed in her lap and the gun on her left leg. While not phys­i­cal­ly impos­si­ble, this is alto­geth­er unlike­ly for some­one who had alleged­ly com­mit­ted sui­cide by fir­ing a pow­er­ful hand gun into her mouth. She felt that her prob­lems were “exter­nal,” while those around her thought they were “inter­nal,” i.e. “all in her head.”
17.–Same as 16.
18.–Iris’ ordeal was remark­ably sim­i­lar to what Rita Katz endured fol­low­ing her work on Oper­a­tion Green Quest and the SAAR inves­ti­ga­tion.
19.–George W. Bush was pur­su­ing Philip­pine Gold­en Lily loot in order to increase U.S. gold reserves and, per­haps more impor­tant­ly, to for­ti­fy his blind trust. That trust was over­seen by William Stamps Far­ish III, who had con­sid­er­able polit­i­cal and eco­nom­ic grav­i­tas in the state of Ken­tucky.
20.–Bush’s Harken Ener­gy may well have served as a mon­ey laun­der­ing front, per­haps for some of the gold recov­ered in the Philip­pines. We note that a direc­tor of Harken, Talat Oth­man, inter­ced­ed direct­ly with then Trea­sury Sec­re­tary Paul O’Neill on behalf of the tar­gets of the 3/20/2002 raids. The SAAR net­work was a pri­ma­ry tar­get of those raids: we have seen how Rita Katz and her fel­low inves­ti­ga­tors came under sur­veil­lance and harass­ment for dig­ging into that case.
21.–We revis­it the deep pol­i­tics of the Bush fam­i­ly, the fam­i­ly of Dou­glas MacArthur and William and Alan Quasha.
22.–More about the deep pol­i­tics of the Philip­pines, the Bush fam­i­ly, father and son Quasha, and the pos­si­bil­i­ty that Alan Quasha’s dom­i­nant pres­ence in Harken Ener­gy may be deriv­a­tive of the clan­des­tine acqui­si­tion of Gold­en Lily loot.
23.–The pro­gram con­cludes with review of the oper­a­tions of Gold­en Lily and their involve­ment with things Iris was inves­ti­gat­ing. The Rape of Nanking marked the for­mal begin­ning of Gold­en Lily.
24.–Colonel Tsu­ji Masanobu was heav­i­ly involved with Gold­en Lily and the Bataan Death March, the sur­vivors of which were a focal point of Iris Chang’s research at the time of her death.
