SPACESHIP EARTH

"We travel together, passengers on a little spaceship, dependent upon its vulnerable reserves of air and soil, all committed for our safety to its security and peace; preserved from annihilation only by the care, the work, and, I will say, the love we give our fragile craft. We cannot maintain it half fortunate, half miserable, half confident, half despairing, half slave to the ancient enemies of man, half free in a liberation of resources undreamed of until this day. No craft, no crew can travel safely with such vast contradictions. On their resolution depends the survival of us all."

"THE EDGE OF THE SEA" (excerpts)






"Contemplating the teeming life of the shore, we have an uneasy sense of the communication of some universal truth that lies just beyond our grasp. What is the message signalled by the hordes of diatoms, flashing their microscopic lights in the night sea?"

THE EDGE OF THE SEA (1955)

PREFACE

“When we go down to the low-tide line, we enter a world that is as old as the Earth itself – the primeval meeting place of the elements of earth and water, a place of compromise and conflict and eternal change. For us as living creatures it has special meaning as an area in or near which some entity that could be distinguished as life first drifted in shallow waters – reproducing, evolving, yielding that endless varied stream of living things that has surged through time and space to occupy the Earth.”

INTRODUCTION

“To understand the shore, it is not enough to catalog its life. Understanding comes only when, standing on a beach, we can sense the long rhythms of earth and sea that sculptured its land-forms and produced the rock and sand of which it is composed; when we can sense with the eye and ear of the mind the surge of life beating always at its shores – blindly, inexorably pressing for a foothold. True understanding demands intuitive comprehension of the whole…”

THE MARGINAL WORLD

“The edge of the sea is a strange and beautiful place. All through the long history of Earth it has been an area of unrest where waves have broken heavily against the land, where the tides have pressed forward over the continents, receded, and then returned… The shore has a dual nature, changing with the swing of the tides, belonging now to the land, now to the sea…

Only the most hardy and adaptable can survive in a region so mutable, yet the area between the tide lines is crowded with plants and animals. In this difficult world of the shore, life displays its enormous toughness and vitality by occupying almost every conceivable niche.


The shore is an ancient world, for as long as there has been an earth and sea there has been this place of the meeting of land and water. Yet it is a world that keeps alive the sense of continuing creation and of the relentless drive of life. Each time that I enter it, I gain some new awareness of its beauty and its deeper meanings, sensing that intricate fabric of life by which each creature is linked with another, and each with its surroundings…


There is a common thread that links these scenes and memories – the spectacle of life in all its varied manifestations as it has appeared, evolved, and sometimes died out. Underlying the beauty of the spectacle there is meaning and significance. It is the elusiveness of that meaning that haunts us, that sends us again and again into the natural world where the key to the riddle is hidden. It sends us back to the edge of the sea, where the drama of life played its first scene on Earth and perhaps even its prelude; where the forces of evolution are at work today, as they have been since the appearance of what we know as life; and where the spectacle of living creatures faced by the cosmic realities of their world is crystal clear.”


“Then in my thoughts these shores, so different in their nature and in the inhabitants they support, are made one by the unifying touch of the sea. For the differences I sense in this particular instant of time that is mine are but the differences of a moment, determined by our place in the stream of time and in the long rhythms of the sea. Once this rocky coast beneath me was a plain of sand; then the sea rose and found a new shore line. And again in some shadowy future the surf will have ground these rocks to sand and will have returned the coast to its earlier state. And so in my mind’s eye these coastal forms merge and blend in shifting, kaleidoscopic pattern in which there is no finality, no ultimate and fixed reality – earth becoming fluid as the sea itself.


On all these shores there are echoes of past and future: of the flow of time, obliterating yet containing all that has gone before; of the sea’s eternal rhythms – the tides, the beat of surf, the pressing rivers of the currents – shaping, changing, dominating; of the stream of life, flowing as inexorably as any ocean current, from past to unknown future. For as the shore configuration changes in the flow of time, the pattern of life changes, never static, never quite the same from year to year. Whenever the sea builds a new coast, waves of living creatures surge against it, seeking a foothold, establishing their colonies. And some come to perceive life as a force tangible as any of the physical realities of the sea, a force strong and purposeful, as incapable of being crushed or diverted from its ends as the rising tide.


Contemplating the teeming life of the shore, we have an uneasy sense of the communication of some universal truth that lies just beyond our grasp. What is the message signalled by the hordes of diatoms, flashing their microscopic lights in the night sea? What truth is expressed by the legions of barnacles, whitening the rocks with their habitations, each small creature within finding the necessities of its existence in the sweep of the surf? And what is the meaning of so tiny a being as the transparent wisp of protoplasm that is a sea lace, existing for some reason inscrutable to us – a reason that demands its presence by the trillion amid the rocks and weeds of the shore? The meaning haunts and ever eludes us, and in its very pursuit we approach the ultimate mystery of life itself.”

"APPLIED INFOTOXICOLOGY: POISON, 'PR' & DEPOPULATION" JEFF PHILLIPS



















































NOTE FROM JEFF:
Clyde Graf, a NZ film-maker recently
sent me "Poisoning Paradise", a fantastic doco about the continuing widespread use of 1080, a 'super-toxin' pesticide banned in almost every country in the world except Australia and tiny New Zealand, who deploys 85% of the global supply annually. I've known about this for years, and I've heard about how it's far more dangerous than the government agencies acknowledge; it always seemed paradoxical at best that a country so committed to broadcasting its "clean and green" image around the world, particularly in the wake of Lord of the Rings, would engage in something so anti-life.

Their film shows the reality behind the facade of the propaganda: countless dead animals whose carcasses lie to decompose in streams, 1080 being dropped into major water-catchment areas for cities, pets dying in extended agony, sham "public hearings" being conducted, outright fraud in presenting 'scientific' information. But even all this is just the tip of the ice-berg.


I started looking into it myself and the results have been profound. I don't have the whole story, but in this four-part series I share with you plenty of raw material from which to draw your own conclusions. A lot of it is going to be quite unpleasant but PLEASE MAKE AN EFFORT TO EXPLORE THIS INFORMATION. It's literally a matter of life and death.

Some of the details may not be exact, but the reality of this scenario cannot be denied. The basic idea is that what we are experiencing with this paradoxical chemical bombardment around the world is not 'accidental', not just 'side-effects' from the negligence of industry and government.

In New Zealand it looks like it's not even the 1080 per se that's the main problem, but the bio-accumulation of highly toxic and mutagenic fluorine compounds; fluorine is the central active ingredient not only in 1080, but is also added to 61% of New Zealand's public water supplies, not to mention its presence in many toothpastes and approximately 20% of all prescription drugs.

It's also possible that the agencies so irresponsibly deploying these 'super-toxins' are being manipulated by higher centralized control mechanisms at work behind the scenes, from the level of the UN, for example, and that the reasons for its continued use have nothing to do with "possum control." And have you had a look at New Zealand cancer statistics lately?


The evidence is that a very dangerous hidden agenda is at work with all this, an agenda whose origins lie in pre-war Germany with the development of chemical warfare agents for the purpose of killing people, the financial power-elite funding this research, and their under-lying ideological goals of global totalitarianism and depopulation that are being implemented at this very moment in history. But check it out and form your own picture. For the latest on 1080 in New Zealand go to

“Applied Infotoxicology: Poison, “PR” and Depopulation”

“The basic story is that all through the 20th century extremely wealthy individuals and families have taken upon themselves the responsibility of ‘managing humanity’…to run a decades-long program of ‘eugenics,’ involving on-going research and development of a host of technologies designed to kill off people they don’t like, create a ‘master race’ of new genetically-engineered high-tech versions of themselves, and to convert the surviving human remnant into a class of robota, or slaves.”

“What we are faced with is not an occasional dose of poison which has accidentally got into some article of food, but a persistent and continuous poisoning of the whole human environment…”

Rachel Carson, Silent Spring, 1962

Don’t be afraid from what you are about to read. Allow this information to forge a new level of awareness and to inspire you to dig deeper, draw your own conclusions, create your own ‘big picture’ of what’s happening around and within us, wake up to the gravity of the situation. The chapter is as yet unfinished, the outcome is uncertain. We don’t even know it but WE are the authors of this unfolding drama…

What follows concerns what has to be the darkest dimension of modern history, a deeply disguised agenda of deliberate and premeditated, even scientifically designed and institutionally-enshrined genocide, aimed not at a “foreign enemy” but in reality at humanity as a whole. The breadth and depth of these programs stagger the imagination…for example, this is the true purpose behind the Pentagon (supposedly oriented due-south for purposes of black magic!)…and this is just from what we know; secrecy and deception are essential when depopulating the planet is the goal.

This agenda has been able to unfold pervasively because extreme care has been taken every step of the way to fool the public, to conceal the true nature of the modi operandi; because of the public’s lack of awareness coupled with a broad scientific illiteracy, generations of people have, for example, happily ingested toxic industrial waste in tooth-paste and drinking water, taken drugs actually designed to create disease, dropped “humane” pesticides into forests and eaten food sprayed with mutagenic chemicals…all the while thinking it was “safe”…because “experts” said so.

Our true human nature of being trusting beings has been grotesquely and repeatedly violated by the tiny “power elite” who want to “rule the world.” If we don’t soon wake up, however, the game will be over. Moreso today than ever before, things are not what they seem to be. Almost every high-level leader or official, every public event, every artifact of ‘news’ is in reality a fictitious creation, a methodically fabricated toxon, or ‘poison arrow’ delivered by the hugest and most pervasive weapons-system ever devised, mass-communication.

The target is YOU. Consider what I now share with you as a sort of cognitive antigen to the barrage of ‘social engineering’ or ‘infotoxin’ that constantly bombards us. What I am sharing with you now, as terrifying as it is, helps to explain a lot of what is happening in today’s world…the world in which we all live. The only world we know that has life. Planet Earth.

The picture that is emerging involves multiple layers that have been unfolding together for over one hundred years. On one hand we see the growth of industrial civilization and the development of science and technology, and are concerned about unintended “side-effects” on the health of our planet and ourselves. On the other hand, however, we can now see that most of these “side-effects” which are doing so much damage to our health, are NOT “side-effects” at all but deliberately implemented weapons of disease and depopulation.

The basic story is that all through the 20th century extremely wealthy individuals and families have taken upon themselves the responsibility of “managing humanity” as they see fit. Hiding their wealth in private “foundations” and using it to create organizations and to fund research in many inter-locking areas, these “power elites” have worked hand-in-hand with each other not only to create world wars, subvert the educational system, and rewrite history as they’d like it to be, but, most importantly, to run a decades-long program of “eugenics,” involving on-going research and development of a host of technologies designed to kill off people they don’t like, create a “master race” of new genetically engineered high-tech versions of themselves, and to turn the surviving human remnant into a class of robota, or slaves.

My goal here is to let the information speak for itself, so that you can form your own exact picture of what’s going on; some of this material might seem shocking or even completely incredible in the literal sense…but the sources are solid.

When Rachel Carson says that “What we are faced with is not an occasional dose of poison which has accidentally got into some article of food, but a persistent and continuous poisoning of the whole human environment…” and “…most pesticides meet the criterion of the perfect carcinogen too well for comfort” I think we can be fairly sure that what she’s telling us is that it hasn’t happened by accident.

In 1963 she was invited to meet with president John F. Kennedy after he read Silent Spring, her 1962 book, now credited with sparking the global environmental movement. Below are excerpts from his 1961 address:

"The very word ‘secrecy’ is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and secret proceedings…there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment…For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence--on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed."

It sounds as if JFK were describing an “invisible government,” one of whose primary goals was global depopulation?

Indeed, William Engdahl reveals that depopulation has been one of the primary underlying purposes of U.S. foreign policy for decades. In these excerpts from “The Brotherhood of Death” (chapter 6 of Seeds of Destruction which William has authorized me to post) you will find shocking revelations concerning the origin of “eugenics” research, what their goals all along have been, the diabolically “intelligent” nature of their instruments of disease and mass-murder, and how these programs have constantly mutated to conceal their true purpose...coming to fruition as I write this now.

The host of “fear memes” foisted on the unwary public in recent years, including “Islamic terrorists”, “swine flu”, “global warming” and “over-population” all of which have been clearly demonstrated to be fabrications or instances of “reality engineering” done by “public relations” apparati, share a common purpose: to convince the public that a “one world government” is the “solution” to all these “problems.” It IS…a “final solution.”

The “global warming” thing in particular in recent weeks has been solidly proven to be a hoax designed to justify control over “life activity” in the form of “carbon emissions.” Rough translation: depopulation.

This story is breaking around the world as I write these words now.

Here are three links that explain clearly what’s going on:

The upcoming Kyoto II meeting in Copenhagen is apparently a huge effort by the “invisible government” to get the nations of the world to sign its “treaty” which will dissolve all national sovereignty and create a true “one world government” whose first goal, once empowered, will be the fulfilment of its global depopulation agenda. It’s my belief that many if not all ‘world leaders’ today have been put where they are in order to guarantee a smooth “signing away” of their respective country’s identity and freedom.

Not coincidentally, the Codex Alimentarius, an Orwellian “food safety” program whose directives resemble a Nazi eugenics wish-list, is scheduled to come into effect on 31 December of 2009. And THAT’S no coincidence, either!

I’ve been following the “depopulation agenda” for a while now after realizing the true nature of “depleted uranium.” That Rachel Carson knew the underlying reality is apparent, and William Engdahl has filled in the “who’s who” blanks.

For many years I’ve been aware of the “ecoxymoronic” use of 1080, sodium monofluoroacetate…a mutagenic ‘super-toxin’ banned in almost every country…here in “clean and green” New Zealand.

Film-maker and activist Clyde Graf sent me his recent film “Poisoning Paradise” last week and a lot of things came into focus. The active ingredient in 1080 is fluorine…the “grandfather” of toxic chemicals and industrial waste products, and the twin brother of uranium in lethality.

The main question raised in this film is, why is a substance known to be deadly to all vertebrate life, even to be an endocrine disruptor in human beings, being used in ever-increasing quantities and in such a small country? Why is something so carcinogenic that it’s banned in almost every country being deployed and endangering the health of all larger life-forms, supposedly “just” to kill possums?

When you step back and take a long hard look at all this, and consider that it’s actually impossible for valid research on the health effects of mutagens and carcinogens ever to have been done because it would take several generations of human life to do it, it becomes quite clear that WE, all the people of the Earth, ARE the experiment. We ARE the guinea pigs. We ARE the target, the “enemy.”

Ultimately, this is all stuff being done TO people BY people. People are doing it, people can stop doing it. But before it can be stopped, we must become aware that it is happening. We have to penetrate the walls of public relations deception and ‘perception management’ and inform ourselves about the reality of the situation. We must stop uncritically assimilating the “infotoxins” being sold to us as truth! We must “regain our brains.”

THE ONLY SAFE POISON IS NO POISON!

Industrial civilization is really a euphemism for “war on nature.” We are just one species of life who for reasons that remain unclear has run amuck. My belief is that this isn’t our “nature” but the result of a “season” of time we are going through embedded within a much larger cosmic context of constantly changing energies and influences. As a land-based species, we could be subject to a pattern of permanent psychic mutation.

Regardless of why it’s happening, the net result is that it looks like that for the time being, Mother Nature is using us to take ourselves out.

The Hopi, a peaceful native American tribe in southern Arizona, have prophecies going back thousands of years describing what they call koyaanisqatsi, “life out of balance.” According to them, the Earth periodically cleanses herself of all that is out of balance with the fabric of life. The Hopis call it the “day of purification.”

“A gourd of ash will be thrown from the sky which will burn the land and boil the oceans.” This prophecy was seen to be fulfilled by the advent of atomic weapons.

“If we dig precious things from the land, we will invite disaster.” This seems to be where the problems really started with our self-destruction…coal was the first substance to be systematically extracted on a large scale, and it was from coal tar that the science of organic chemistry was born; petroleum has fuelled the mega-machine since it was discovered, and given birth to legion toxic chemicals, drugs, wastes and by-products. Little is known or even can be known about the ultimate effects of the anthropogenic toxo-cosm in which we now find ourselves; but it’s pretty certain that the people of the distant future, if they exist, won’t look anything like us!

Interestingly, when uranium was mined for the first atomic bombs, much of it was dug from Black Mesa, a sacred area on the Hopi reservation.

“If we do not do the impossible, we may be faced with the unthinkable.”

P.S. Some people have questioned the reality of the global depopulation agenda by asking, in reference to reports of DU, or “depleted uranium” blowing in the wind to the four corners of the Earth…”But why would these people poison THEMSELVES, too?” Good question? David Icke would reply, “They aren’t people.” But I think there are several more logical reasons, for example, that they, the elite, have access to special anti-radiation/anti-cancer drugs (which they believe will work!); they eat only specially-grown foods; they are involved in the development of genetic nano-technologies which they believe will render the current biological human obsolete, and will consciously mutate into machines. If you think I’m making this up, just check out Ray Kurzweil’s work. Plus, they all have ready-and-waiting berths in doomsday bunkers and underground complexes around the world. Finally, I think they’re all just stark raving mad from generations of inbreeding. We’re just been taken in by their widely disseminated hallucinations. It’s high time we come up with some REAL ideas of our own, that relate to loving life rather than destroying it!

THIS WORK IS DEDICATED TO THE SPIRITS OF RACHEL CARSON AND LIFE ON EARTH

SILENT SPRING, RACHEL CARSON (1962) [excerpts]


















































“These sprays, dusts, and aerosols are now applied almost universally to farms, gardens, forests, and homes—non-selective chemicals that have the power to kill every insect, the "good" and the "bad," to still the song of birds and the leaping of fish in the streams, to coat the leaves with a deadly film, and to linger on in the soil—all this though the intended target may be only a few weeds or insects. Can anyone believe it is possible to lay down such a barrage of poisons on the surface of the earth without making it unfit for all life? They should not be called ‘insecticides,’ but ‘biocides. “

SILENT SPRING
, Rachel Carson, 1962 (excerpts)


THE OBLIGATION TO ENDURE (chapter 3)


The history of life on earth has been a history of interaction between living things and their surroundings. To a large extent, the physical form and the habits of the earth's vegetation and its animal life have been molded by the environment. Considering the whole span of earthly time, the opposite effect, in which life actually modifies its surroundings, has been relatively slight. Only within the moment of time represented by the present century has one species—man—acquired significant power to alter the nature of his world.



During the past quarter century this power has not only increased to one of disturbing magnitude but it has changed in character. The most alarming of all man's assaults upon the environment is the contamination of air, earth, rivers, and sea with dangerous and even lethal materials. This pollution is for the most part irrecoverable; the chain of evil it initiates not only in the world that must support life but in living tissues is for the most part irreversible. In this now universal contamination of the environment, chemicals are the sinister and little-recognized partners of radiation in changing the very nature of the world—the very nature of its life. Strontium 90, released through nuclear explosions into the air, comes to the earth in rain or drifts down as fallout, lodges in soil, enters into the grass or corn or wheat grown there, and in time takes up its abode in the bones of a human being, there to remain until his death. Similarly, chemicals sprayed on croplands or forests or gardens lie long in the soil, entering into living organisms, passing from one to another in a chain of poisoning and death. Or they pass mysteriously by underground streams until they emerge and, through the alchemy of air and sunlight, combine into new forms that kill vegetation, sicken cattle, and work unknown harm on those who drink from once pure wells. As Albert Schweitzer has said, "Man can hardly even recognize the devils of his own creation."


It took hundreds of millions of years to produce the life that now inhabits the earth—eons of time in which that developing and evolving and diversifying life reached a state of adjustment and balance with its surroundings. The environment, rigorously shaping and directing the life it supported, contained elements that were hostile as well as supporting. Certain rocks gave out dangerous radiation, even within the light of the sun, from which all life draws its energy, there were short-wave radiations with power to injure. Given time—time not in years but in millennia—life adjusts, and a balance has been reached. For time is the essential ingredient; but in the modern world there is no time.

The rapidity of change and the speed with which new situations are created follow the impetuous and heedless pace of man rather than the deliberate pace of nature. Radiation is no longer merely the background radiation of rocks, the bombardment of cosmic rays, the ultraviolet of the sun that have existed before there was any life on earth; radiation is now the unnatural creation of man's tampering with the atom. The chemicals to which life is asked to make its adjustment are no longer merely the calcium and silica and copper and all the rest of the minerals washed out of the rocks and carried in rivers to the sea; they are the synthetic creations of man's inventive mind, brewed in his laboratories, and having no counterparts in nature.


To adjust to these chemicals would require time on the scale that is nature's; it would require not merely the years of a man's life but the life of generations. And even this, were it by some miracle possible, would be futile, for the new chemicals come from our laboratories in an endless stream; almost five hundred annually find their way into actual use in the United States alone. The figure is staggering and its implications are not easily grasped—500 new chemicals to which the bodies of men and animals are required somehow to adapt each year, chemicals totally outside the limits of biologic experience.


Among them are many that are used in man's war against nature. Since the mid-1940's over 200 basic chemicals have been created for use in killing insects, weeds, rodents, and other organisms described in the modern vernacular as "pests"; and they are sold under several thousand different brand names.


These sprays, dusts, and aerosols are now applied almost universally to farms, gardens, forests, and homes—nonselective chemicals that have the power to kill every insect, the "good" and the "bad," to still the song of birds and the leaping of fish in the streams, to coat the leaves with a deadly film, and to linger on in the soil—all this though the intended target may be only a few weeds or insects. Can anyone believe it is possible to lay down such a barrage of poisons on the surface of the earth without making it unfit for all life? They should not be called "insecticides," but "biocides."


The whole process of spraying seems caught up in an endless spiral. Since DDT was released for civilian use, a process of escalation has been going on in which ever more toxic materials must be found. This has happened because insects, in a triumphant vindication of Darwin's principle of the survival of the fittest, have evolved super races immune to the particular insecticide used, hence a deadlier one has always to be developed—and then a deadlier one than that....Thus the chemical war is never won, and all life is caught in its violent crossfire.


Some would-be architects of our future look towards a time when it will be possible to alter the human germ plasm by design. But we may easily be doing the same now by inadvertence, for many chemicals, like radiation, bring about gene mutations. It it ironic to think that man might determine his own future by something so seemingly trivial as the choice of an insect spray.


All this has been risked – for what? Future historians may well be amazed by our distorted sense of proportion.
How could intelligent beings seek to control a few unwanted species by a method that contaminated the whole environment and brought the threat of disease and death even to their own kind? Yet this is precisely what we have done…

ELIXIRS OF DEATH (chapter four)



For the first time in the history of of the world, every human being is now subjected to contact with dangerous chemicals, from the moment of conception until death. In the less than two decades of their use, the synthetic pesticides have been so thoroughly distributed throughout the animate and inanimate world that they occur virtually everywhere. They have been recovered from most of the major river systems and even from streams of ground-water flowing unseen through the earth. Residues of these chemicals linger in soil to which they have been applied a dozen years before. They have entered and lodged in the bodies of fish, birds, reptiles and domestic and wild animals so universally that scientists carrying on animal experiments find it almost impossible to locate subjects free from such contamination. They have been found in fish in remote mountain lakes, in earthworms burrowing in soil, in the eggs of birds – and in man himself. For these chemicals are now stored in the bodies of the vast majority of human beings, regardless of age. They occur in the mother’s milk, and probably in the tissues of the unborn child.

All this has come about because of the sudden rise and prodigious growth of an industry for the production of man-made or synthetic chemicals with insecticidal properties. This industry is a child of the Second World War.
In the course of developing agents of chemical warfare, some of the chemicals created in the laboratory were found to be lethal to insects. The discovery did not come by chance: insects were widely used to test chemicals as agents of death for man.

The result has been a seemingly endless stream of synthetic insecticides.
In being man-made – by ingenious laboratory manipulation of the molecules, substituting atoms, altering their arrangement – they differ sharply from the simpler inorganic insecticides of pre-war days. These were derived from naturally occurring minerals and plant products – compounds of arsenic, copper, lead, manganese, zinc and other minerals, pyrethrum form the dried flowers of chrysanthemums, nicotine sulphate from some of the relatives of tobacco, and rotenone from leguminous plants of the East Indies.

What sets the new synthetic insecticides apart is their enormous biological potency. They have immense power not merely to poison but to enter into the most vital processes of the body and change them in sinister and often deadly ways.
Thus, as we shall see, they destroy the very enzymes whose function is to protect the body from harm, they block the oxidation processes from which the body receives its energy, they prevent the normal functioning of the various organs, and they may initiate in certain cells the slow and irreversible change that leads to malignancy.

THROUGH A NARROW WINDOW (chapter thirteen)


For mankind as a whole, a possession infinitely more valuable than individual life is our genetic heritage, our link with past and future. Shaped through long aeons of evolution, oru genes not only make us what we are, but hold in their minute beings the future – be it one of promise or threat. Yet generic deterioration through man-made agents is the menace of our time, ‘the last and greatest danger to our civilization.’


Again, the parallel between chemicals and radiation is exact and inescapable.


The living cell assaulted by radiation suffers a variety of injuries: its ability to divide normally may be destroyed, it may suffer changes in chromosomal structure, or the genes, carriers of hereditary material, may undergo those sudden changes known as mutations, which cause them to produce new characteristics in succeeding generations. If especially susceptible the cell may be killed outright, or finally, after the passage of time measured in years, it may become malignant.


All these consequences of radiation have been duplicated in laboratory studies by a large group of chemicals known as radio-mimetic or mutation-imitating. Many chemicals used in pesticides – herbicides as well as insecticides – belong to this group of substances
that have the ability to damage the chromosomes, interfere with normal cell division, or cause mutations. These injuries ot the genetic material are of a kind that may lead to disease in the individual exposed or they may make their effects felt in future generations.

Only a few decades ago, no one knew these effects of either radiation or chemicals. In those days the atom had not been split and few of the chemicals that were to duplicate radiation has as yet been conceived in the test tubes of chemists. Then in 1927, a professor of zoology in a Texas university,
Dr. H. J. Muller, found that by exposing an organism to x-radiation, he could produce mutations in succeeding generations. With Muller’s discovery a vast new field of scientific and medical knowledge was opened up. Muller later received the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his achievement, and in a world that soon gained familiarity with the grey rains of fall-out, even the non-scientist now knows the potential results of radiation.

Although far less noticed, a companion discovery was made by Charlotte Auerbach and William Robson at the University of Edinburgh in the early 1940’s. Working with mustard gas, they found that this chemical produced
permanent chromosome abnormalities that cannot be distinguished from those induced by radiation. Tested on the fruit fly, the same organism that Muller had used in his original work with X-rays, mustard gas also produced mutations. Thus the first chemical mutagen was discovered.

Mustard gas as a mutagen has now been joined by a long list of other chemicals known to alter genetic material in plants and animals…


Dr. Peter Alexander, an outstanding British authority, has said that the radio-mimetic chemicals ‘may well represent a greater danger’ than radiation. Dr. Muller, with the perspective gained by decades of distinguished work in genetics, warns that various chemicals (including groups represented by pesticides)
…can raise the mutation frequency as much as radiation…As yet far too little known of the extent to which our genes, under modern conditions of exposure s to unusual chemicals, are being subjected to such mutagenic influences.

ONE IN EVERY FOUR (chapter fourteen)


The battle of living things against cancer began so long ago that its origin is lost in time. But it must have begun, in a natural environment, in which whatever life inhabited the earth, was subjected, for good or ill, to influences that had their origin in sun and storm and the ancient nature of the earth. Some of the elements of this environment created hazards to which life had to adjust or perish. The ultraviolet radiation in sunlight could cause malignancy. So could radiations from certain rocks, or arsenic washed out of soil or rocks to contaminate food or water supplies.


The environment contained these hostile elements even before there was life; yet life arose, and over the millions of years it came to exist in infinite numbers and endless variety…These natural cancer-causing agents are still a factor in producing malignancy; however, they are few in number and they belong to that ancient array of forces to which life has been accustomed, from the beginning.


With the advent of man the situation began to change, for man, alone of all forms of life, can create cancer-producing substances, which in medical terminology are called carcinogens. A few man-made carcinogens have been part of the environment for centuries. An example is soot, containing aromatic hydrocarbons. With the dawn of the industrial era, the world became a place of continuous, ever-accelerating change. Instead of the natural environments there was rapidly substituted an artificial one composed of new chemical and physical agents, many of them possessing powerful capacities for inducing biological change. Against these carcinogens which his own activities had created man had no protection, for even as his biological heritage had evolved slowly, so it adapts slowly to new conditions. As a result these powerful substances could easily penetrate the inadequate defenses of the body.


The history of cancer is long, but our recognition of the agents that produce it has been slow to mature…


One of the most impressive theories of the origin of cancer cells was developed by a German biochemist, Prof. Otto Warburg of the Max Planck Institute of Cell Physiology. Warburg has devoted a lifetime of study to the complex processes of oxidation within the cell. Out of this broad background of understanding came a fascinating and lucid explanation of the way a normal cell can become malignant.


Warburg believes that either radiation or a chemical carcinogen acts by destroying the respiration of normal cells, thus depriving them of energy. This action may result form minute doses often repeated. The effect, once achieved, is irreversible. The cells not killed outright by the impact of such a respiratory poison struggle to compensate for the loss of energy. They can no longer carry on that extraordinary and efficient cycle in which vast amounts of ATP are produced, bgut are thrown back on a primitive and far less efficient method, that of fermentation. The struggle to survive by fermentation continues for a long period of time. It continues through ensuing cell divisions, so that all the descendant cells have this abnormal method of respiration…At last they reach the point where fermentation is able to produce as much energy as respiration. At this point cancer cells may be said to have been created from normal body cells…


The Warburg theory also explains why repeated small doses of a carcinogen are more dangerous under some circumstances than a single large dose. The latter may kill the cells outright, whereas the small doses allow some to survive, though in a damaged condition. These survivors may then develop into cancer cells. This is why there is no ‘safe’ dose of a carcinogen.


In Warburg’s theory we also find explanation of an otherwise incomprehensible fact – that one and the same agent can be useful in treating cancer and can also cause it. This, as everyone knows, is true of radiation, which kills cancer cells but may also cause cancer. It is also true of many of the chemicals now used against cancer. Why? Both types of agents damage respiration. Cancer cells already have a defective respiration, so with additional damage they die. The normal cells, suffering respiratory damage for the first time, are not killed but are set on the path that may eventually lead to malignancy.


Measured by the standards established by Warburg, most pesticides meet the criterion of the perfect carcinogen too well for comfort
…they may be creating sleeping cancer cells, cells in which an irreversible malignancy will slumber long and undetected – its cause long forgotten and even unsuspected – it flares into the open as recognizable cancer.

"THE BROTHERHOOD OF DEATH" WILLIAM ENGDAHL (excerpts)

































































William Engdahl has authorized me to post these excerpts from his book. This information describes a scenario in which the most insidious research and diabolical experiments ever known to have been conducted by human beings was not the improbable outcome of crazed mad-scientists or lunatics, but the studious result of highly organized and well-financed efforts by some of the most brilliant minds of the 20th century, supported by the wealthiest people of the 20th century. The really scary part is that this is not something from the past; au contraire, much of what is happening in the world at this very minute makes a lot of sense when seen through Engdahl's lens of examination. The monsters aren't dead, but if they have their way, we all soon will be! "Promoting the well-being of mankind?" You betcha!

“The Brotherhood of Death”


Chapter 6, Seeds of Destruction, F. William Engdahl (excerpts)

HUMAN GUINEA PIGS

Years before Henry Kissinger [1] and Brent Scowcroft made population reduction the official foreign policy of the United States Government, the Rockefeller brothers, in particular John D. Rockefeller III, or JDR III as we was affectionately known, were busy experimenting on human guinea pigs… JDR III made Puerto Rico into a huge laboratory to test his ideas on mass population control beginning in the 1950’s. By 1965, an estimated 35% of Puerto Rico’s women of child-bearing age had been permanently sterilized, according to a study made that year by the island’s Public Health Department. The Rockefeller’s Population Council, and the U.S. Government Department of Health Education and Welfare – where brother Nelson Rockefeller was Under-Secretary – packaged the sterilization campaign. They used the spurious argument that it would protect women’s health and stabilize incomes if there were fewer mouths to feed…

“SECOND ONLY TO CONTROL OF ATOMIC WEAPONS…”

John D. III’s forced sterilization was no radical departure for the family. The Rockefeller’s had long regarded Puerto Rico as a convenient human laboratory. In 1931, the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, later renamed the Rockefeller University, financed the cancer experiments of Dr. Cornelius Rhoads [2] in Puerto Rico. Rhoads was no ordinary scientist. It later came out that Rhoads had deliberately infected his subjects with cancer cells to see what would happen. Eight of his subjects died. According to pathologist Cornelius Rhoads, “Purto Ricans are beyond doubt the dirtiest, laziest, most degenerate and thievish race of men ever inhabiting this sphere. What the island needs is not public health work but a tidal wave or something to totally exterminate the population. I have done my best to further the process of extermination by killing off 8…” Initially written in a confidential letter to a fellow researcher, Rhoad’s boast of killing Puerto Ricans appeared in Time magazine in February 1932 after Pedro Albizu Campos, leader of the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party, gained possession of the letter and published its contents.

Rather than being tried for murder, the Rockefeller Institute scientist was asked to establish the U.S. Army Biological Warfare facilities in Maryland, Utah, and also Panama, and was later named to the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, where radiation experiments were secretly conducted on prisoners, hospital patients and U.S. soldiers.


In 1961, more than a dozen years before his policies were to become enshrined in
NSSM 200, JDR III gave the second McDougall Lecture to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. Rockefeller told the listeners, “To my mind, population growth is second only to control of atomic weapons as the paramount problem of the day.” He spoke of a “cold inevitability, a certainty that is mathematical, that gives the problems posed by too-rapid population growth a somber and chilling caste indeed.” The “grim fact” of population growth, he warned, “cuts across all the basic needs of mankind and…frustrates man’s achievement of his higher needs.”

ROCKEFELLER SUPPORTS EUGENICS
JDR III

grew up surrounded by eugenicists, race theorists and Malthusians at the Rockefeller Foundation such as Frederick Osborn, Henry Fairchild and Alan Gregg. For John D. III, it seemed only natural that he and others of his “class” should decide which elements of the human species survived, in order that they could have “life as we want it to be.” They saw it as being a bit like culling herds of sheep for the best of the breed.
The logic of human life for the family was simple: supply and demand. As Jameson Taylor expressed it, "For Rockefeller the proper care of sheep…requires nothing more than an equalization of supply with demand. If supply - i.e., food, water and space – cannot meet demand, supply must be increased and demand must be decreased. The Rockefeller Foundation has used this two pronged approach to great effect. The supply shortage has been addressed by…advanced medical practices and increased crop yields. The demand problem has been solved by culling the herd via birth control and abortion." For most Americans and for most of the world, the idea that the leading policy circles of the United States Government, acting on the behest of some of its wealthiest families and most influential universities, would deliberately promote the mass covert sterilization of entire population groups was too far fetched to accept.

Few realized that individuals with names such as Rockefeller, Harriman, banker J.P. Morgan Jr., Mary Duke Biddle of the tobacco family, Cleveland Dodge, John Harvey Kellogg from the breakfast cereal fortune,
Clarence Gamble of Proctor & Gamble [3] were quietly funding eugenics as members of the American Eugenics Society. They had also been financing experiments involving forced sterilization of “inferior people” and various forms of population control as early as World War 1. Their counterparts in the English Eugenics Society at the time included the British Chancellor of the Exchequer, Winston Churchill, economist John Maynard Keynes, Aurthur Lord Balfour and Julian Huxley, who went on to be the first head of UNESCO after the war [4].

COMBATING THE ‘HUMAN CANCER’

One man served as head of the Medical Division of the Rockefeller Foundation for more than 34 years. His name was
Alan Gregg [5]. An all but unknown person to the outside world…Gregg wielded tremendous influence. He was Vice President of the Foundation on his retirement in 1956, and his ideology pervaded the institute decades after. It was an ideology of Malthusian brutality and rascist finality. Gregg once wrote in an article for a scientific journal on population, “There is an alarming parallel between the growth of a cancer in the body of an organism and the growth of human population in the earth ecological economy.” He then asserted that “cancerous growths demand food, but so far as I know, they have never been cured by getting it. The analogies can be found in our plundered planet.” This was a formulation which translated as, “people pollute, so eliminate pollution by eliminating people…”

Gregg then went on, in a paper commissioned by Science, one of the most eminent scientific journals in the U.S., to observe, “how nearly the slums of our great cities resemble the necrosis of tumours.” And this “raised the whimsical query: Which is the more offensive to decency and beauty, slums or the fetid detritus of a growing tumour?”


THE ROCKEFELLERS’ DARKER SECRETS


The role of the Rockefeller Foundation in U.S. and global population policy was not accidental, nor was it a minor aspect of the institution’s mission. It was at the very heart of it. Tis population policy role was the key to understanding the later engagement of the Foundation in the
revolution in biotechnology and plant genetics [6].

In 1913, the founder of the Standard Oil trust, John D. Rockefeller Sr., was advised to hide his wealth behind a tax-exempt foundation. That year Congress had passed the first federal income tax, and the Rockefeller family and other wealthy Americans such as the steel magnate, Andrew Carnegie, were enraged at what they deemed illegal theft of justly-earned gains. As Carnegie put it at the time, wealth passing through the hands of the few can be made a much more potent force for the elevation of our race [sic] than if distributed in small sums to the people themselves.” In so many words, money should only belong to the very wealthy, who know best how to use it.
The newly-established Rockefeller Foundation’s stated mission was “to promote the wellbeing of mankind throughout the world.” It went without saying that the foundation alone, and the Rockefeller family, would decide just what “promoting the wellbeing of mankind” entailed.

From its inception, the Rockefeller Foundation was focussed on culling the herd, or systematically reducing populations of “inferior” breeds


THE ‘BEST OF BREED’ – EUGENICS AND THE ‘MASTER RACE’

One of the first philanthropic projects undertaken by the Rockefeller Foundation in the 1920’s was to fund the
American Eugenics Society, and the Eugenics Record Office at Cold Spring Harbor, New York where by 1917, John D. Rockefeller had become the world’s second largest supporter of the Harriman family. Eugenics was a pseudo-science. The word was coined in England in 1883 by Charles Darwin’s cousin, Francis Galton, and it was founded on Darwin’s 1859 work, the Origin of Species [by Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life] Darwin had imposed what he termed, “the application of the theories of Malthus to the entire vegetable and animal kingdom.” Malthus, who shortly before his death had repudiated his own theory of population, asserted in his 1798 tract, Essay on the Principles of Population, that populations tend to expand geometrically while food supply grew only arithmetically, leading to periodic famine and death to eliminate the “surplus” population… As it was defined by its sponsors, eugenics was the study of improving the “quality” of the human species, while reducing the quality of “inferior beings,” or, as Sanger put it, the “qualitative factor over the quantitative factor…in dealing with the great masses of humanity.” The title page of Eugenics Review, the journal of the Eugenics Education Society, carried the original definition of British eugenics founder, Francis Galton, Darwin’s cousin, who defined eugenics as “the science of improvement of the human race germ plasm through better breeding. Eugenics is the study of agencies under social control that may improve or impair the racial qualities of future generations, whether physically or socially.”

Contrary to popular belief,
the idea of a Nordic master race was not solely a Nazi Germany fantasy. It had its very early roots in the United States of America going back to the early years of the 20th century.

The president of the prestigious Stanford University in California,
David Starr Jordan [7] promoted the idea of “race and blood” in his 1902 book, Blood of a Nation. He claimed that poverty was an inherited genetic trait, as was talent. Education had no influence; you either “had it” or you didn’t. Two years later, in 1904 Andrew Carnegie’s Carnegie Institute had founded the major laboratory at Cold Spring Harbor, the Eugenics Record Office on wealthy Long Island, outside New York City, where millions of index cards on the bloodlines of ordinary Americans were gathered, to plan the possible removal of entire bloodlines deemed inferior. The land for the Institute was donated by railroad magnate E. H. Harriman [8] a form supporter of eugenics. This was eugenics, American elite style. Naturally, if the ideal was tall, blond, blue-eyed Nordic types, that meant dark-skinned Asians, Indians, Blacks, Hispanics, and others, including the sick and retarded, were deemed inferior to the eugenics goal of “best of breed.” The aim of the index card project was to map the inferior bloodlines and subject them to lifelong segregation and sterilization to “kill their bloodlines.” The sponsors were out to eliminate those they deemed “unfit.” As early as 1911, Carnegie was funding an American Breeder’s Association study on the “Best Practical Means for Cutting Off the Defective Germ-Plasm in the Human Population.”

One of the largest and most significant financial contributors for various eugenics projects soon became the Rockefeller Foundation. It poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into various eugenics and population projects, from the
American Eugenics Society to Cold Spring Harbor, to the American Breeder’s Association.

One of the more prominent members of the
American Eugenics Society in the early 1920’s was Dr. Paul Bowman Popenoe [9] a U.S. Army venereal disease specialist from World War 1, who wrote a textbook called Applied Eugenics. In sum, Popenoe said, “The first method which presents itself is execution…Its value in keeping up the standard of the race should not be underestimated.” He went on to eloquently advocate the “destruction of the individual by some adverse feature of the environment, such as excessive cold, or bacteria or by bodily deficiency.” In his book, Popenoe spoke of estimated five million Americans who would, at one point of another, end up in mental hospitals and of “five million more who are so deficient intellectually with less than 70% average intelligence, as to be in many cases, liabilities rather than assets to the race.” The book was aimed at a select, elite leadership. It was an example of what the eugenics movement termed “negative eugenics” – the systematic elimination of “inferior” beings, whether mentally inferior, physically handicapped or racially non-white.

Popenoe’s radical approach was a bit too controversial for some, but by 1927, in Buck vs. Bell, the U.S. Supreme Court, in a decision by Justice
Oliver Wendell Holmes [10] ruled that the forced sterilization program of the State of Virginia was constitutional. In his written decision, Holmes wrote, “It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime, or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind…Three generations of imbeciles are enough.” Holmes, one of the Supreme Court’s most influential justices, was also one of its most outspoken racists. In 1922, the aging Holmes wrote to British economist and Labour Party leading figure, Harold J. Laski, “As I have said, no doubt often, it seems to me that all society rests on the death of men. If you don’t kill ‘em one way, you kill ‘em another – or prevent them from being born. Is not the present time an illustration of Malthus?” The statement could have served as the guiding slogan of the Rockefeller Foundation eugenics efforts.

This 1927 Supreme Court decision opened the floodgates for thousands of American citizens to b e coercively sterilized or otherwise persecuted as subhuman. One Illinois mental hospital in Lincoln fed new patients milk from known tubercular cows, in the conviction that a genetically strong human specimen would be immune…


Years later, the Nazis at the Nuremberg trials quoted Holme’s words in their own defense. In the postwar world, not surprisingly, it was to no avail. The Rockefeller propaganda machine buried the reference; the victors defined the terms of peace and the truth of war.


“Calling a Spade a Spade…”


The Rockefeller enthusiasm for eugenics during the 1920’s did not stop at America’s own shores. Rockefeller Foundation money played an instrumental role in financing German eugenics during the 1920’s…In 1826 it awarded an impressive $250,000 for the creation of the
Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Psychiatry [11]….

As American researcher Edwin Black and others later documented, the leading psychiatrist at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute at that time was
Ernst Rudin [12] a man who went on to a stellar career as the architect of Adolf Hitler’s systematic program of medical eugenics. The Rockefeller-financed Rudin was named President of the World Eugenics Federation in 1932. Their platform was openly advocating the killing or sterilization of people whose heredity made them a “public burden.” The multi-talented Rudin was also head of brain research at that institute, where Hermann J. Muller [13] an American eugenicist also funded with Rockefeller money, was employed. Later it was revealed that the institute received “brains in batches of 150-250” from victims of the Nazi euthanasia program at the Brandenburg State Hospital in the late 1930’s. The brain research was directed towards the Nazi experiments on Jews, gypsies, the mentally handicapped and other “defectives.” Rudin also led the Nazi program of forced eugenic sterilization, and was a prime architect of the 1933 Nazi Sterilization Law. Rudin and his staff, as part of the Task Force of Hereditary Experts, chaired by SS chief Heinrich Himmler [14] drew up the sterilization law. Described as an “American Model” law, it was adopted iin July 1933…Declaring racial hygiene a “spiritual movement,” Rudin and his associates found a willing collaborator in Adolf Hitler. “Only through [the Fuhrer] did our dream of over thirty years, that of applying racial hygiene to society, become a reality,” Rudin said.

By 1940, thousands of Germans from old age homes and mental institutions had been systematically gassed, as had been advocated twenty years earlier in the United States by Popenoe, if with limited success. In 1940, just back from a tour of the German eugenics institutes, Leon Whitney, Executive Secretary of the Rockefeller-funded American Eugenics Society, declared of the Nazi experiments, “While we were pussy-footing around…the Germans were calling a spade a spade.”


The head of the German eugenics institute in Berlin was
Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer [15]…[who]…advocated a “total solution to the Jewish problem.” Von Verschuer’s long-time assistant was Dr. Josef Mengele [16] who headed human experiments at the Auschwitz concentration camp after May 1943. Von Verschuer was delighted when Mengele, who won the name “The Angel of Death” for his deadly experiments on human prisoners, was assigned to Auschwitz. Never one to place principle before pragmatism, the Rockefeller Foundation ceased its funding of most Nazi eugenics, when the Nazis invaded Poland in 1939. By that time, what had been established with their money over a period of more than fifteen years was consolidated. Alan Gregg, the Foundation’s Director of the Medical Division, was the man who was most intimately involved in the Nazi funding of eugenics at every step of the way. His division was responsible for funding the various Kaiser Wilhelm Institutes…

Leaving Mengele holding the proverbial bag, Verschuer fled Berlin before the end of the war, and avoided a Nuremberg trial. By 1946 he was writing to his old friend, the U.S. Army eugenicist Paul Popenoe, in California…Old Nazi friends managed to whitewash Verschuer’s Auschwitz past, for which all records had been conveniently destroyed.

In 1949, the Auschwitz doctor Otmar Frieiherr von Verschuer was named Corresponding Member of the
American Society of Human Genetics, a new organization founded in 1948 by by leading eugenicists hiding under the banner of the less-disgraced name, genetics. The first president of the American Society of Human Genetics was Hermann Josef Muller, a Rockefeller University Fellow who had worked at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Brain Research in 1932.

JDR III’s Population Council and “Crypto-eugenics”


Eugenics was the foundation of John D. Rockefeller’s obsession with overpopulation. Given his enormous influence and the huge financial muscle of the Rockefeller Foundation to fund scientific research, it was an obsession which would have untold consequences for generations after his death…
In 1931, JDR III joined the board of the Rockefeller Foundation itself. There, eugenicists like Raymond Fosdick and Frederick Osborn [17] founding members of thes American Eugenics Society in 1946, and was also president of the racist Pioneer Fund. With John D. Rockefeller III he would co-found the Rockefeller Population Council. During the Third Reich, Osborn had expressed his early support for sterilization effort…Osborn…personally praised the Nazi eugenic program as the “most important experiment which has ever been tried.”

With population control, Rockefeller and others in the establishment believed they had finally found the answer to mass, efficient and effective negative eugenics.
The founding meeting of the Population Council…was attended by Detlev W. Bronk, then president of both the Rockefeller Institute and the National Academy of Sciences. JDR III arranged for the conference to be sponsored under the auspices of the National Academy of Sciences to give it a quasi-scientific aura…Dr. Bronk was sympathetic to the agenda of population control. Being promoted was the same unvarnished eugenics racial ideology, veiled under the guise of world hunger and population problems.

Over the following 25 years, the Rockefeller Population Council would spend a staggering $173 million on population reduction globally, establishing itself as by far the most influential organization promoting the eugenics agenda in the world…

…At the time of the founding of Rockefeller’s Population Council, the American Eugenics Society made a little-publicized move of its headquarters from Yale University directly into the offices of the Population Council in the Rockefeller Center in New York City. Rockefeller shrewdly repackaged his discredited eugenics race and class ideology as “population control.” Instead of focusing on domestic issues…he turned his sights on the entire developing world, a vast sea of humanity which stood between the Rockefeller family and the realization of their ambitious post-war designs for a new American Century.

The strategists around the Rockefeller eugenics organizations explicitly set out to pursue the same agenda as essentially von Verschuer and the Nazi eugenics crowd had, but under the deliberate strategy of what they termed
“crypto-eugenics.” The key American proponent of hiding the eugenics nature of their work under the name “genetics” and “population control” was Rockefeller’s head of the Population Council, Frederick Osborn…He stressed that the reason for making birth control “equally available” should be disguised: “Measures for improving the hereditary basis of intelligence and character are most likely to be attained under a name other than eugenics…”

The architect of the American reshaping of the elitist eugenics agenda into the new garment of population control was Rockefeller’s friend and employee, Frederick Osborn…
A significant problem after the Second World War was that the very name eugenics had been thoroughly associated in the public mind with Nazi racist extermination programs, the definition of a Master Race and other human atrocities…

Osborn had a ready answer: people for some reason refused to accept that they were “second rate” compared to Osborn, Rockefeller, Sanger and their “superior class.” As Osborn put it, “We have failed to take into account a trait which is almost universal and is very deep in human nature. People are simply not willing to accept the idea that the genetic base on which their character was formed is inferior and should not be repeated in the next generation…”
Osborn proposed a change in packaging. Eugenics was to be mass-marketed under a new guise…

Publicly, Osborn appeared to purge eugenics in his postwar-era of earlier rascism. In reality he applied racism far more efficiently to hundreds of millions of darker-skinned citizens of the Third World. Osborn also secretly held the office of the president of the infamous white-supremacist Pioneer Fund from 1947 to 1956. Among other projects the Pioneer Fund “supported highly controversial research by a dozen scientists who believed that Blacks are genetically less intelligent than Whites…”
As late as 1946, after the war and the ghastly revelations of the human experimentation in Auschwitz and other concentration camps, Osborn, then President of the American Eugenics Society, published, in his Eugenics News magazine, the so-called Geneticist’s Manifesto, entitled “Genetically Improving the World Population.” …Genetics was the new name for eugenics

Osborn doled out strong praise for Hermann J. Muller, Ernst Rudin’s colleague in Germany, who had received Rockefeller funds during the 1930’s for eugenics research. Quoting Muller, Osborn wrote
“It would in the end be far easier and more sensible to manufacture a complete new man de novo, out of appropriately chosen raw materials, than to try to refashion into human form those those pitiful relics which remained.” Osborn also praised Muller’s proposal to develop sperm banks to “make available the sperm of highly qualified donors.” The idea for a gene revolution was being debated back then. Rockefeller’s Population Council gave grants to leading universities including Princeton’s Office of Population headed by Rockefeller eugenicist Frank Notestein, a long-time friend of Osborn, who in 1959 became President of the Rockefeller Population Council in order to promote a science called demography. Its task was to project horrifying statistics of a world over-run with darker-skinned peoples, to prepare the ground for acceptance of international birth control programs…

In 1952…
Margaret Sanger [18] created, thanks to Rockefeller Foundation money…the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF)…

Following the initial Rockefeller financing, her IPPF soon was backed by a corporate board which included DuPont, U.S. Sugar, David Rockefeller’s Chase Manhatten bank, Newmont Mining Co., International Nickel, RCA, Gulf Oil, and other prominent corporate members. The cream of America’s corporate and banking elite were quietly lining up behind Rockefeller’s vision of population control on a global scale.
Less than a decade after the revelations of eugenics and Auschwitz population control was again becoming fashionable in certain American elite circles of the 1950’s. It was a testimony to the power of the U.S. establishment to mould public opinion and encourage fears of exploding populations of poor, hungry peasants around the world. The population control lobby which would later shape Kissinger’s NSSM 200 was consolidating around Rockefeller Foundation grants and individuals, preparing a global assault on “inferior peoples,” under the name of choice, of family planning and of averting the danger of “over-population” – a myth their think-tanks and publicity machines produced to convince the ordinary citizens of the urgency of their goals.

From Eugenics to Genetics


A colleague of Ernst Rudin, Dr. Franz J. Kallmann [19], was a German scientist who left Germany in 1936 when it was discovered that he was part Jewish. After the war he helped rehabilitate German eugenicist Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer and win him respectability and acceptance in the American scientific community. Kallmann’s enthusiasm for eugenics was in no way dampened by his own experience of Nazi persecution of the Jews…Kallmann was founding president of a new eugenics front organization, the American Society of Human Genetics.

At the
New York Psychiatric Institute, Kallmann continued the same research in genetic psychiatry he had done with Rudin in Germany. Kallmann’s American Society of Human Genetics later became a sponsor of the Human Genome Project [20]. The multibillion dollar project was, appropriately enough, housed at the same Cold Spring Harbor center that Rockefeller, Harriman and Carnegie had used for their notorious Eugenics Research Office in the 1920’s. Genetics, as defined by the Rockefeller Foundation, would constitute the new face of eugenics.

While brother John D. III was mapping plans for global depopulation, brothers Nelson and David were busy with the business side of securing the American Century for the decades following the crisis of the 1960’s and 1970’s. American agribusiness was to play a decisive role in this project, and the development of
genetic biotechnology would bring the different efforts of the family into a coherent plan for global food control in ways simply unimaginable to most.
