“DOTS” SERIES -- “DOT” #09:
‘«IL DUCE» U.S.A.’.
GLOBAL STRATEGIC HYPOTHESES.
Dear Reader,
This new series, entitled
“DOTS” -- as in “connecting the dots” -- is intended to provide you with ‘evidentiary
excerpts’ from the many years of research, by Karl Seldon, initially, and,
later, by the Foundation, on the ‘‘‘lawful’’’
[as in “law-of-value”-‘‘‘lawful’’’] but secret global agenda and strategy of
the ‘descendence phase’ capitalist ruling class.
We plan to present these excerpts here, within this new series, together with
their source references, usually without any commentary, by us, as to how we “connect” these “dots”, to give you, our reader,
the chance to make your
“connections” on your
own.
We will, generally, set forth our ‘GLOBAL STRATEGIC HYPOTHESES’, giving our version of the interconnections of these “dots”, and our hypotheses to explain these “dots”, elsewhere. Some of our hypotheses such are already extant in past entries to
this blog.
“DOTS” Series [as in “connecting the dots”.] -- DOT #9:
“«Il Duce» U.S.A.” --
“Retired Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler revealed that wealthy businessmen were plotting to create a fascist veterans’ organization with Butler as its leader and use it in a coup d'état to overthrow President Franklin D. Roosevelt.”
“In 1934, Butler testified before the United States House of Representatives...“McCormack–Dickstein Committee”...on these revelations.[1]”
“No one was prosecuted.”
At the time of the incidents, news media dismissed the plot, with a New York Times editorial characterizing it as a “gigantic hoax”.[2]
“...most [Ed.: historians] agree that some sort of plot was discussed.[3][4][5][6].”
Commentary: Who was
behind -- who was bankrolling -- this planned coup
d'état?
None other than “the usual
suspects” -- the same suspects whose actions have figured again and again in
the ‘‘‘DOTS’’’ set forth in this series so far: principally the Rockefellers, the Morgans, and
the DuPonts.
I
will call this faction of the ruling class ‘The Rockefeller Faction’ for
short. By their manifest ‘hyper-hostility’
to the duly elected government of FDR -- a ‘hyper-hostility’ that was most
egregiously revealed via this planned coup
d'état -- they also revealed their opposing ruling class faction, which I
will call, for short, ‘The Roosevelt Faction’.
This
extreme division within the ruling class, between a ‘Rockefeller Faction’
agenda and strategy, and an opposing ‘Roosevelt Faction’ agenda and strategy,
is a key and telling phenomenon defining the ‘descendence phase’ of our present
social system.
As
to the causation of this split, and of that ‘descendence phase’, I must remain
silent for the present, given the limited background that these ‘‘‘DOTS’’’ have
so far supplied. But, in my opinion, ultimately,
understanding that causation is the key to understanding every last one of
these ‘‘‘DOTS’’’, and to understanding modern history as a whole, as well as
the options that we confront for a better future.
In
the 2007 edition of his book, originally published in 1973, and entitled The Plot to Seize the Whitehouse: The
Shocking True Story of the Conspiracy to Overthrow FDR, Jules
Archer wrote, in the Foreword to that book, as follows --
[pp.
ix-x]: “This is the true
story of a remarkable American who, during the early New Deal years, was sought
by wealthy plotters in the United States to lead a putsch to overthrow the
government and establish an America Fascist dictatorship[Ed.: i.e., a
U.S. version of state-capitalism, Fascist species] .”
“According
to retired Representative John W. McCormick, former Speaker of the House, if
the late Major General Smedley Butler of the U. S. Marine Corps had not been a
stubborn devotee of democracy, Americans today could conceivably be living
under an American Mussolini, Hitler, or Franco.”
“An
ironic aspect of the conspiracy General Butler unmasked is that few Americans
have ever heard about it... . ...school
texts that deal with the New Deal are uniquely silent about the powerful
Americans who plotted to seize the White House with a private army, to hold
President Franklin D. Roosevelt prisoner, and get rid of him if he refused to
serve as their puppet in a dictatorship they planned to impose and control.”
“There
is strong evidence to suggest that the conspirators may have been too important
politically, socially, and economically to be brought to justice after their
scheme had been exposed... . The largely
anti-Roosevelt press of the New Deal era scotched the story as expeditiously as
possible by outright suppression, distortion, and attempts to ridicule [Ed.: and by other
attempts to character-assassinate]
General Butler... .”
“Former
Speaker McCormick told the author, “In peace or war he [Ed.: General
Butler] was one of the outstanding
Americans in our history. I can’t
emphasize too strongly the very important part he played in exposing the
Fascist plot in the early 1930s backed by and planned by persons possessing
tremendous wealth.”
“The
crucial events of the plot to seize the White House unfolded between July and
November 1933, with hearings before the McCormick-Dickstein Committee begun...on
November 20, 1934. ... On February 15, 1935, the committee submitted to the
House of Representatives its final report, verifying completely the testimony
of General Butler.”
“This
book may help break some of the seeds of silence that have kept Americans from
knowing the truth about that conspiracy... [as] the first effort to tell the
whole story of the plot in sequence and full detail... .”
The
following, sequenced excerpts from that book may serve to fill in for you a high-level
overview of the Rockefeller Faction’s attempt to create ‘«Il Duce» U.S.A.’ --
[p.
20]: “Some business leaders envied their
counterparts in Italy, who had financed Mussolini’s rise to power [Ed.: in 1922]. Il Duce’s
[“]efficiency[”]...was highly lauded...with dictatorial control of labor unions
by his corporate state.”
“Thomas
Lamont, a J. P. Morgan partner, praised the dictator for his methods of
providing low-paying jobs... .”
[pp.
22-23]: “Butler received a phone call
from...Jerry MacGuire [who] insisted that he had to see the general immediately
because he had “something of the utmost importance” to impart.”
“It
was August 22, 1934, three days after a German plebiscite had approved vesting
sole executive power in Adolf Hitler as führer of Nazi Germany.”
“Shortly
before three o’clock, Butler entered the empty hotel, where he found the pudgy
bond salesman waiting for him... . ...McGuire took him [Ed.: Butler] into the hotel’s empty restaurant, which was not
operating for the summer.”
“...McGuire
revealed what he had been up to on the Continent during the previous three
months. His backers had sent him abroad
to study the role that veterans organizations had played...in bringing about
dictatorships. In Italy MacGuire had
found that Mussolini’s real power stemmed from veterans organized in his Black
Shirts; they had made him dictator and were the chief protectors of his
regime.”
[p.
25]: “...Thus, at one stroke, the
country would be rid of Roosevelt’s misrule... . McGuire concluded triumphantly, how did the
general feel about heading the new “super-organization” that would be the power
behind bringing about these sweeping changes?... . MacGuire revealed that he now had $3 million
in working funds and could get $300 million if it were needed.”
“He
added that in about a year Butler would be able to assemble 500,000 veterans,
with the expectation that such a show of force would enable the movement to
gain control of the government...in just a few days.”
[p.
27]: “His [Ed.: Butler’s] reputation for fearless honesty, for speaking his
mind bluntly no matter whose corns he trod on, also made him the ideal
candidate to sell the plotters’ propaganda to the nation’s veterans... . It explained why MacGuire had refused to take
No for an answer, counting on his [Ed.: MacGuire’s]
persuasive powers as a bond salesman to break down Butler’s sales
resistance...by...tempting him into the plot with the biggest bribe ever
offered to any American -- ...to become first dictator of the United States.”
[p.
28]: “MacGuire left no doubt in his [Ed.: Butler’s] mind that the nation’s biggest financiers were,
indeed, involved. According to the bond
salesman, there had been a meeting in Paris to decide upon the selection of the
man to head the superorganization.
MacGuire and his group had held out for Butler, but the Morgan interests
distrusted the general as “too radical”, preferring Douglas MacArthur instead.”
[pp.
30-33]: “Even as Butler brooded over the
affair and wondered what to do about it, another of MacGuire’s uncannily
accurate predictions materialized two weeks after their talk.”
“In
September, 1934, the press announced the formation of a new organization, the
American Liberty League, by discontented captains of industry and finance. They announced their objectives as “to combat
radicalism, to teach...respect for the rights of...property, and generally to
foster free private enterprise.” ”
“Denouncing
the New Deal, they attacked Roosevelt for “fomenting class hatred” by using
such terms as “unscrupulous money changers”, “economic royalists”, and “the
privileged princes of the new economic dynasties”.” ”
“Butler was now genuinely alarmed. For the first time it dawned on him that if the American Liberty League was, indeed, the “superorganization” behind the plot that it seemed to be, the country’s freedom was in genuine peril. Such money and power as the men behind the League possessed could easily mobilize a thinly disguised Fascist army from the ranks of the jobless, embittered veterans, and do what Mussolini had done in Italy with the financial support of the Italian plutocracy.”
“Convinced
that the democracy he cherished was in genuine danger, he steeled himself for
the ordeal of public mockery and humiliating attacks that he knew would follow his
exposure of the conspiracy.”
[p.
160]: “The American Liberty league...had
brokerage head Grayson M.-P. Murphy as its treasurer and Robert S. Clark as one
of its financiers... . Its contributors
included representatives of the Morgan, DuPont, Rockefeller, Pew, and Mellon
interests. Directors of the League
included Al Smith and John J. Raskob [Ed.: of DuPont]. The League later formed affiliations with
pro-Fascist, antilabor and anti-Semitic organizations.”
[p.
228]: “[other] Directors of the League were
identified as also being directors of U. S. Steel, General Motors, Standard
Oil, Chase National Bank, Goodyear Tire, and Mutual Life Insurance Company.”
[p.
243]: “John L. Spivak, author of the
book Europe Under Terror,
wrote, about the aftermath of the Congressional investigation of this
anti-Roosevelt Faction’s [i.e., this Rockefeller/Morgan/DuPont/... Faction’s] planned
coup
d'état, that: “What was behind the
plot was shrouded in a silence which has not been broken to this day. ... Even
a generation later, those who are still alive and know all the facts have kept
their silence so well that the conspiracy is not even a footnote in American
histories. It would be regrettable if
historians neglected this episode and future generations of Americans never
heard of it.”
[p.
244]: “If we remember Major General
Smedley Darlington Butler for nothing else, we owe him an eternal debt of
gratitude for spurning the chance to become dictator of the United States --
and for making damned sure no one else did either.”
Commentary: General
Butler’s revelations clearly quashed the initial Rockefeller Faction plan to
overthrow the Roosevelt Faction.
However, had the Rockefeller Faction still had a choice, I think that
they would have rapidly mounted for a new coup attempt against Roosevelt’s government.
But, once again, ~1939, their “tune” changed. The Rockefeller Faction seems to have decided
that they needed the Roosevelt Faction’s regime to mobilize American workers
for the invasion of Europe and the defeat of Nazi Germany, to save the
Rockefeller Faction from the “Frankenstein Monster” in the form of the Nazi
“Eugenics” regime that they had created, but that had turned against them.
The Nazi regime had turned, from being their
‘Servant-Dictatorship’, to being a ‘Franken-dictatorship’ hell-bent on
“liquidating” their former, Rockefeller Faction masters, and on conquering the
entire world for themselves, wresting its control from the Rockefeller Faction,
and exterminating those Rockefeller Faction world rulers as if those former
rulers were themselves nothing but “Eugenic Defectives”.
So, again I ask, what was it that signaled
so singularly to the Rockefeller Faction, in ~1939, that their former Nazi ‘Servant
Dictatorship’ had turned into a ‘Franken-Dictatorship’? The invasion of Poland?
I don’t think so!
