It is possible to make a reasonable prediction about where World War III will break out based upon historical Russian military strategy?
By Dave Hodges
Quote:(INTELLIHUB) Putin is following a very predictable pattern that dates back to over a 100 years of Russian military history coupled with the present set of events.
The Present Situation
Russia is bleeding the Petrodollar dry by leading the BRIC nations in the purchase of Iranian oil for gold. The same situation is emerging in Europe as Russia is on the verge, either by invasion or by proxy control of Ukraine, of controlling a good portion of energy needs to Europe and being able to bypass the Petrodollar as a means of payment for Russian energy shipments into Europe. Further, Russia has just completed a deal which brings China into theRussian energy sphere of influence. This will eventually culminate in the weakening of NATO and the isolation of the United States both economically and militarily. What does Russia want and what will be its eventual goal? Some believe that Russia wants to occupy the United States and perhaps Putin eventually does, but it is not practical at this particular point of time. Economic attrition and military isolation are Putin's best friends at this time. After all, the US is in possession of over 2,000 nuclear weapons and 72 nuclear armed submarines which are virtually undetectable. Despite the presence of these American deterrents, do not be lulled into a false sense of security, this cold war will soon turn hot.
Putin's Military Strategy
Putin is pursuing a military strategy that most Americans have never heard of and even fewer understand and it has to do with Russia's geographic makeup and this holds the key to Russian military strategy Although Russia possesses one of the largest land masses in the world, they possess an abhorrent lack of useable coastline. Historically, Russian economic growth has been severely impeded because of the lack of usable ports. Russia rues the day that they sold Alaska to the United States. It also helps to explain why Syria has jumped to the forefront of world affairs. Russia is sitting on vast energy deposits and they are threatening to expand their energy based and mineral world dominance by exploiting the newly discovered riches at theNorth Pole and they have invested significant resources in beefing up their Arctic fighting forces towards this end. Russia may be able to acquire vast mineral resources, but without significant ports from which to trade, the Russian economy will always run in second gear. One does not need to have access to Putin's war plans to understand what is going on, one needs to only be a student of history in order to predict where this coming conflict is headed.
The Heartland Theory
British geographer and military historian, Sir Halford MacKinder, in 1904, wrote an article that changed how politicians and military men viewed the world. The theory that had so influenced nearly five generations of strategists was called simply, the Heartland Theory. Basically, Mackinder's Heartland Theory views geo-political military history as a struggle between land-based and sea-based powers. Mackinder believed the world had become a "closed" system, with virtually no new lands left for the Europeans powers to discover, to conquer, and to fight over without creating chaos elsewhere. According to the theory, the common denominator for world conflict has been reduced to sea powers vs. land-based powers which would subsequently struggle for dominance of the world, and the ultimate victor would be in a position to set up a world empire. The determining factor in this struggle was physical geography; "Man and not nature initiates, but nature in large measure controls".
From Mackinder's perspective, Soviet Russia had to be contained within the heartland. Mackinder's believed that whosoever controlled Eurasia, controlled the world, so long as the controller had access to useable ports. The problem for Russia is that they have so few usable ports thus impacting commerce and the movement of men and material in a time of war. So long as Russia could be prevented from being a major sea power, the forces of the United States and Western Europe were safe. However, if Russia should become a sea power in conjunction with its massive land-based power, Russia could rule the world. And now, through the release of Russian secret documents we are finding out that Stalin was willing to fight a war with the US over obtaining Alaska seaports as predicted by the Heartland Theory.
Stalin's Secret Plans to Invade Alaska In 1951
In 1999, at a conference held at Yale University, previously secret Russian documents revealed that Russian Dictator Joseph Stalin had undergone extensive planning in preparation to invade North America as early as 1951. The event was one of a series of programs sponsored by the Washington D.C.-based Cold War International History Project (CWIHP), which monitors new documents pertaining to the Cold War. The Yale conference centered on Stalin's relationship with the United States. These documents, from the Cold War, revealed that Stalin had a definitive plan to attack Alaska in 1951-52 and had undergone major military preparations in anticipation of the invasion. Russia has always considered itself to be landlocked and this served as the major motivation for Russia's planned incursion which would have given Russia access to good sea ports. Stalin subsequently died and the plans were abandoned, at least temporarily, mostly due to American dominance in nuclear weapons. In 2014, we see the importance of Heartland Theory in guiding Russian foreign policy with regard to Syria and to some degree, China. The Chinese-Russian energy deal allows Russia access to Chinese ports. Russia is steadfast in its protection of Syria because of the Russian need to use the ports of Tartus and Aleppo. And it is highly likely that once the energy pipelines in Ukraine are secured by Putin, Europe will soon be making seaport concessions to Russia in exchange for Russian based energy shipments. At the beginning of the crisis in Crimea, the first objective of the Russian military was to secure the naval base in Sevastopol. The Russians desire the fleet to grow in support a new Mediterranean task force created by Russia last year as move to counter an increase US naval presence in the Mediterranean. If Ukraine had been allowed to be wooed by Western banksters to join the European Union, Russia's most important naval force would have been effectively neutered because of the potential loss of Sevastopol as a naval base. The G7 nations may view Putin's actions in Crimea as being offensive, Putin, no doubt, views the action as a matter of military survival. Again, the Heartland Theory comes into play. The Heartland Theory also came into play during last year's Syrian crisis as Putin threatened tonuke the United States if it invaded Syria in violation of international law. Syria is critical to the Russians on a number of fronts including the prevalence of Syria's warm water ports. Syria's importance to Russia can be condensed to five essential factors:
1. Russia has a naval installation in Syria. The base is vitally important because it is Russia's last foreign military base outside of the former Soviet Union. Putin is playing a bit of a slight of hand approach by stating they are closing the facility. However, the Russians are maintaining navy technicians and to service their permanent flotilla in the area.
2. Russia utilizes the port at Aleppo and Tartus to facilitate is sea trade.
3. Fortifying Syria provides protection for Iran who is undermining the Petrodollar by selling its oil for gold. This allows Putin to be engaged in an economic war against the dollar the Federal Reserve.
4. Syria is a military satellite of Russia as Assad continues to buy a high quantity of Russian military exports, which aids the Russian economy.
America's Options
Control of Ukraine and its gas shipments through the country are the key to swinging the balance of power on the planet. If Ukraine comes under the complete control of the Russians, energy blackmail and the eventual disintegration of NATO will occur. If Russia moves to take over Ukraine, what options does the United States have? It is not likely that at this point in time that NATO has the ability to keep Russia out of Ukraine. Where is Russia most vulnerable? The clear answer is in Syria. Syria has both economic and military significance to Russia. If Syria were to fall to the United States, the military and economic loss would be catastrophic, not the least, would be the loss of Syrian ports. Russia's prudent course of action would be to continue to erode the US economy by its relentless attacks upon the Federal Reserve and the Petrodollar. However I do not foresee the Federal Reserve banksters are going to continue to let this happen as the dollar erodes. Subsequently, when Ukraine falls, Syria and possibly Iran will be attacked by the United States. The provocation will likely be a false flag event within the United States in which the Syrians are falsely implicated. Remember the Heartland Theory, it also predict the second front of the coming World War III. Along these lines, Putin will attack Alaska if the United States attacks Syria. This is how a cold war can turn hot in a hurry. If you do not believe me, just ask the Polish as they have begun mobilizing for war. DHS just began a martial law lock down drill yesterday which will last for nearly a month. Ask yourself, what do these people know that you do not? Again, I want to caution people to stock up on supplies. If a false flag event does occur, your ability to resupply could be seriously imperiled.
The Legal Geopolitics of Carl Schmitt
Most people only know that Haushofer was the main Nazi Geopotlician. In fact Carl Schmitt was a prominent geopolitical thinker. The 2003 translation of his book "The Nomos of the Earth" started to give Anglophone world a new appreciation of his ideas. According to Schmitt, a state does not own land but controls territories. He felt very sad after operation Barbarossa. Hitler should not aim to annex territories without limits. Germany like Untied States and Russian should only achieve a Grofraum, which means geopolitical space with social and political influence. Two examples are Monroe doctrine and Eastern Europe after world war two. Further, any state can legally intervene in this sphere if danger and risks occurs to preserve the integrity of Grofraum, not necessarily maintain the existing boundaries but most importantly, the core economic and social influences. For example, Russia is absolutely entitled to intervene in Ukraine if the Slav culture and Russian economic interest are severely undermined in Crimean region. Once all these are restored, Russia can retreat and EC should cancel sanctions immediately.
Eurasia: A Geo-political re-alignment - David Guyatt - 05-04-2016
I'm not able to fins this article on Intellihub? But if I go to Google and type in the article caption: Why WWIII Will Begin in Syria, by Dave Hodges I find the article on Dave Hodges website HERE. There is also a variation of that article by the same author, HERE.
I have to add that checking out Dave Hodges reveals he is an "end times" aficionado and appears on the End Times Radio Show and claims Russian and Chinese troops are in America. I've seen and heard all of this before many times.
No disrespect intended, but I just don't buy his brand of religious scaremongering.

Anglo-Saxon liberalism, terrorism, and how Russia can rescue the free world
Emmanuel Leroy, April 14, 2016
http://www.fort-russ.com/2016/04/anglo-saxon-liberalism-terrorism-and.html
Quote:"Etiology of Terrorism"
I would like to start from the core of the issue: it is clear that the majority of terrorist attacks that have happened since the end of the 20th century identify themselves with the main, maybe even the only, movement: Islam. In fact, I've never heard of any Orthodox or Catholic attacks. Thus, the play begins, the curtain rises, but the actors are yet unknown. Who is the author, who is the director, producer, who helps behind the scenes, who is operating the sound, lighting, and special effects are also unknown.
Let's assume that Islam is the main carrier of terrorism in the world. But what kind of Islam is it? And who is really pulling the puppet's strings, which are constantly moving before our eyes? I mean bin Laden, Al-Qaeda, Al-Nusra, ISIS, Daesh, Boko Haram...
To make it clear who is currently supporting these terrorist organizations, I would like you to read this passage from the New York Times on January 23rd, 2016:
When President Obama secretly authorized the Central Intelligence Agency to begin arming Syria's embattled rebels in 2013, the spy agency knew it would have a willing partner to help pay for the covert operation. It was the same partner the CIA has relied on for decades for money and discretion in far-off conflicts: the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Since then, the CIA and its Saudi counterpart have maintained an unusual arrangement for the rebel-training missions, which the Americans have code-named Timber Sycamore. Under the deal, current and former administration officials said that the Saudis contribute both weapons and large sums of money, and the CIA takes the lead in training the rebels with AK-47 assault rifles and tank-destroying missiles.
The support for the Syrian rebels is only the latest chapter in the decades long relationship between the spy services of Saudi Arabia and the United States, an alliance that has endured the Iran-contra scandal, support for the mujahedeen against the Soviets in Afghanistan, and proxy fights in Africa. Sometimes, as in Syria, the two countries have worked in unison. In others, Saudi Arabia has simply written checks that underwrite American covert activities.
The joint arming and training program, which other Middle East nations contribute money towards, continues as America's relations with Saudi Arabia and the kingdom's place in the region are in flux. The old ties of cheap oil and geopolitics that have long bound the countries together have loosened as America's dependence on foreign oil declines and the Obama administration tiptoes toward a diplomatic rapprochement with Iran.
And yet the alliance persists, kept afloat on a sea of Saudi money and the recognition of mutual self-interest. In addition to Saudi Arabia's vast oil reserves and role as the spiritual anchor of the Sunni Muslim world, the long intelligence relationships help to explain why the United States has been reluctant to openly criticize Saudi Arabia for its human rights abuses, its treatment of women, and its support for the extreme strain of Islam, Wahhabism, which has inspired many of the very terrorist groups the United States is fighting against. The Obama administration did not publicly condemn Saudi Arabia's beheading of a dissident Shiite cleric, Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr, who had challenged the royal family.
Although the Saudis have been public about their help arming rebel groups in Syria, the extent of their partnership with the CIA's covert action campaign and their direct financial support has not been disclosed.
Details were pieced together in interviews with a half-dozen current and former American officials and sources from several Persian Gulf countries. Most spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the program.
From the moment the CIA operation began, Saudi money supported it.
"They understand that they have to have us, and we understand that we have to have them," said Mike Rogers, the former Republican congressman from Michigan who was chairman of the House Intelligence Committee when the CIA operation began. Mr. Rogers declined to discuss the details of the classified program.
American officials have not disclosed the amount of the Saudi contribution, which is by far the largest from another nation to the program to arm the rebels against President Bashar al-Assad's military. But estimates have put the total cost of the arming and training effort at several billion dollars.
As it is modern history, let's go back in time.
Historians know the role played by the British since the 18th century, and how they contributed to the rise to power of the Saudi dynasty, backing a union between it and the al-Wahhab family in order to provide a way to India, or more closer to us, but the same geo-strategic aim was chosen by Roosevelt in 1945, creating ties with the Wahhabi state.
We should remember the role of the British leadership in the creation of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt in the 1920's. And what is the Muslim Brotherhood, if it is not Islamic Freemasonry, intended to service or at least to support Anglo-Saxon interests in all countries where it exists. For special games on balance and coups, in which the Anglo-Saxons are great masters of, I offer you to be interested in the events that have happened in Turkey in the recent years, and where we can see the Masonic Kemalist state (even standing on the west's side, but probably not anti-Russian enough) changing to the Islamic state with the Muslim Brotherhood at its head.
There are documents on these ties between Britain, America, and the Muslim Brotherhood, and of course, during the Arab Spring, these networks from Tunisia to Syria through Libya were used by American and British intelligence services.
In other words, despite the fact that Islam is really in the center of the "terrorist environment", in my opinion, it is not its own carrier, not even its purpose, but it is simply an obedient and manipulated Anglo-Saxon godfathers' tool, and that involves geopolitical, economic, military, religious, and cultural purposes, which has as the ultimate goal world domination of those who consider themselves as the only one who can control it.
But all these attacks, these "color revolutions", the regimes overthrows are only the acute symptoms of other diseases, more difficult and more fortified in the world, which I call the Anglo-Saxon ideology.
If we do not understand where the roots of large confrontations are, brought by the Western worldview, we are like doctors who treat only the symptoms, not diagnosing the disease. What Dr. Putin is doing now in Syria, and we know why he has to do it, is mass chemotherapy so that the patient won't die.
And we know that the metastasis of this disease may tomorrow appear somewhere else, in Macedonia or Montenegro, in the North Caucasus or Moldova, and in Transnistria or Ossetia.
Let's try to figure out how this Anglo-Saxon ideology appeared.
It is known that the nations have waged war for a long time, and that invasion and incursion or slaughter are human nature, and there is no nation in the world that cannot be reproached for this. Whether invading new territories or defending their own, people have waged wars since the beginning of time, and it can only be changed by changing human nature.
This general truth does not prevent us from considering the details of historical and geopolitical facts of the past, and observe that the majority of wars, coups, revolutions, and crises that have appeared around the world had an Anglo-Saxon source. Wars in Korea and Syria, even Vietnam, Iran, Angola, Panama, Afghanistan, Iraq, Georgia, Ukraine, and many others have stemmed from this source. The Anglo-Saxon ideology exists in reality, and we must then ask ourselves: what is the Anglo-Saxon ideology like, and where did it come off?
What is the Anglo-Saxon ideology and how was it created?
I think it is necessary to go back to the Elizabethan era of the English monarchy, at the turn of 16th 17th centuries. This era is characterized by religious wars, caused by the Protestantism foundation, and, on the European stage, by the clashes between the French monarchy and the Habsburg dynasty. The population of England in the 1600's was only 4 million people, while the French one was 20 million. This demographics' weakness, compared with the continental powers, including France and the Habsburg Empire, and the extreme threat of invasion attempt of England by Spanish King Philip II's invincible armada are probably the source of the policy that the British elite conduct now (i.e. policy from weak to strong); that means causing division and conflict among all potential enemies. Its only advantage is the Navy, and it would have to use it, by all possible means, including piracy and trade (Varangians proved that both are often linked).
In my opinion, the great British dream of power and global hegemony appeared after Francis Drake came back on September 26th, 1580, when part of the trophy that was stolen from the Spanish empire and left for Queen Elizabeth is known to equate to 50% of the annual budget of the kingdom. To make it clear how huge it is, imagine an oligarch coming back to Russia, having visited all exchanges in the world, and giving President Putin about $3 trillion for Holy Russia.
Something similar happened at the end of the 16th century with the last representative of the Tudor dynasty. Imagine what the feelings were of the English "gentlemen" towards this transformation of Francis Drake from a non-nobleman, like a man of the sea, into one of the richest men in England, and even ennobled by the Queen after he stole the treasures of the Spanish kingdom. After his exploits he must become an example to follow, and, especially, one of his multiple adherents should be reminded of Walter Raleigh, as I know he was the first person who comprehended Anglo-Saxon hegemony in the world. In fact, this gentleman (some kind of pirate and, some kind of adventurer, who was beheaded in the Tower of London), until his death, managed to write a work simply called "History of the World", which states: " Whosoever commands the sea commands the trade; whosoever commands the trade of the world commands the riches of the world, and, consequently, the world itself."
It seems to me that this extraordinary pirate exploit caused this desire to achieve world domination due to the Navy and the capture of other people's wealth.
This desire passed from generation to generation for centuries in the Anglo-Saxon world (through two channels, often related to each other: the exoteric University channel and esoteric Masonry channel), and, in particular, Britain's Mackinder's words highlight it: "Who rules East Europe commands the Heartland; who rules the Heartland commands the World-Island; who rules the World-Island commands the world."
The most interesting fact is that these three people from three different eras all share a common dream of absolute domination over the world. This is the deep nature of the Anglo-Saxon ideology: a full hegemony in all world affairs, which means that they are, with the usual arrogance, described as global governance and the continuation of the Great Game, which Kipling, a freemason, described in the 19th century.
And this Great Game should be won by the majority of the great actors on the world stage; this small British nation, whose population in the 4th century was only 4 million people, has spread around the world the pseudopodia of Commonwealth and the Great America: what they call the "five eyes" (the UK, the USA, Australia, Canada, New Zealand).
In other worlds, the terrorism, matured by the Anglo-Saxons (large finances, mafia, secret services, and circle reflections) that the world faces, is a weapon for partial destabilization (the World Trade Center, Charlie Hebdo, Paris terrorist attacks on 13th November) created to shock people and get them to accept deep social transformation, which in a normal context they would not accept, or a weapon of complete destabilization (Libya, Syria), created to conduct political coups or the dissolution of a country into different structures. The same methods of "moderate" terrorism can be used, like the manipulation of the faint hearted (Anders Breivik), to punish any country who's political orientation on world politics is "wrong". It is clear that the terrorist attacks in recent years in Russia fall into this category.
While the matrix of the Anglo-Saxon ideology still exists, the world will face incessant conflict.
Free nations can oppose the Anglo-Saxon ideology and its fantasy about the world, but the world no longer has many free nations, and the western cancer has affected multiple regions of the world.
Russia is one of these free nations that are able to guide the world away from Anglo-Saxon hegemony.
The main prerequisite is that it must want to do it!
To make it want to do it, it is necessary for it to have a developed worldview and reject the word "ideology", which can be a real alternative to the system that kills nations. This alternative (conservative, of course) has to express, develop, and offer prospects for the world, as well as separation and opposition to the Western world, which is enclosed in its own contradictions and harmful ideology.
Russia has to find within itself its own resources it has them to restructure itself using its own values, turn its back on all materialistic, Marxist, and liberal ideas, and put the omnipotence of money in the right place. Maybe it's time to close the window opened by Peter the Great? Russia is not too late.
Russia exists, and it is a fact, and it is very easy: it is the Mother Land, the matrix, and the land of all beginnings.
But to make this revolution happen (this time a beneficial one), it is necessary for Russia to get rid of the Western system and its exported viruses, called by some experts the "fifth column".
Last year, coming to Moscow with friends, before going to Donbass, I was very surprised that there is a World Trade Center on the bank of the Moskva River! World Trade Center? For whom? For Russians or Wall Street traders?
And the Western system's devilry is hidden sometimes in the smallest of details, including legal ones, for example the Constitution.
Take, for example, the 13th article of the Russian Constitution of 1993, whose first paragraph states that, "In the Russian Federation ideological diversity shall be recognized" (I'm not sure that the ideology of Navalny or Femen bring something positive to Russia), and the second one "no ideology may be established as a state or obligatory one" (part 1.2, Art. 13 of the Constitution).
In other words, Russia does not allow itself to have a worldview. When any nation does not allow itself to have worldview that would be its own, which means that it inevitably will follow the prevailing ideology. Now the dominant ideology is the omnipotence of money.
I strongly believe that Russia intends to play a crucial role in the coming years in order to bring balance back to the world. It is difficult to convey this idea, because the Russian soul is both introverted and modest, and it is not habitual to claim to be universal, at least in the French or Anglo-Saxon interpretation of universal.
Russia has proclaimed its truth to the world twice in its history. The first time was in the name of the Holy Alliance, when Alexander I tried to deflect the harmful ideas of the French Revolution. The second time was on the contrary, in the name of these same ideas that the Bolsheviks were spreading on Russian territory, together with the proletarian ideal. It can be understood as the resistance to bourgeois ideology and the omnipotence of money. Not everything in Marx's ideology is harmful.
In addition to these short periods of Russian history, the Russian bear prefers to stay in its den and oversee their honey, sometimes hitting those who come too close.
But still, imagine with Philotheus the monk that Moscow is the third Rome since Constantinople collapse, that its mission is to ensure the Orthodoxy, i.e. literally the right doctrine: then Moscow can not be limited to the protection of the Orthodoxy only on its territory. Ivan III, due to his his marriage to Zoe Palaeologus, who was the niece of the last king of the eastern Roman Empire, made Russia a heiress of the double-headed eagle, a symbol of harmony, peace, and spiritual bonding. This powerful symbol, looking both to the West and the East, and drawn again on the Russian coat of arms, makes the heirs of Vladimir Monomakh extend their view beyond the borders.
The Russia of the 21st century, faced with Western ideology that has Anglo-Saxon roots, and is now defined by nihilism and the lack of any spiritual guidance, should offer the United Nations a new Holy Alliance, to re-kindle hope for a better world.
As the system's ideology wants to make all nations disappear, all humanity turn into an ugly magma of persons, deprived of their roots and brains, Russia must proclaim its word in the name of all nations, not only BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation.
Every Russian knows by heart the last sentence of the Communist Manifesto: "Workers of the world, unite!" The new slogan of Russia, to rid the world of their oppressors, would be: "Patriots of the world, unite!" That's what should have been a proud Russian claim, get rid of all the complexes to the West! Russia is able to bring the world much more than just oil and gas. From its inner values, from their love of freedom, from its countless martyrs who fell victim to fascism and bolshevism, it gains the right, and more so the duty, to stand up for the purpose of ridding the world of Anglo-Saxon liberalism, which is the last avatar of ideology of the past centuries.
The Idiot by Dostoevsky has this beautiful phrase: "Beauty will save the world."
Dostoyevsky was right: beauty is benefactor that can save the world, contrasting the ugliness of society, opposing itself to the ugliness of society over which money reigns. Is Russia free to carry out today Prince Myshkin's dream, and to forge its future of a mighty country, opposing itself to Mammon's Kingdom?
Arise, Russia! The free world is waiting for your word!
Eurasia: A Geo-political re-alignment - David Guyatt - 15-04-2016
It's a very interesting essay, and the historic road to One World conquest of the Anglo-American camp really deserves much greater study. It's a pity that the article missed out the Rhodes-Milner era which was the crucially important period in which it was recognized that this little island could not take this plan to fruition on it's own - due to its geographic and population limitations (not to mention domestic resources) - and needed America to join with it -- and since America wouldn't any longer bow to England, Rhodes saw that England must bow to America.
Also not discussed - which I think any serious study must discuss in as great detail as possible - was the underlying occult footing of the Elizabethan period, because it strikes me as being the never discussed and unknown "secret engine" that historically drove and almost certainly still drives the Anglo-American camp. And here there is great uncertainty because the occult is by its very nature secret. Is it that the Brits considered themselves ordained by an occult god to rule the planet and, therefore, set out to do so, and because the American eastern establishment had such close blood connections to the old island that the occult undercurrent moved with them also - rarely manifesting but occasionally glimpsed in entities like the Skull & Bones and the Bohemian Grove? What we do know, thanks to Prof. Anthony Sutton, is that the Skull & Bones are a sister group of the Rhodes-Milner "Group" and both are direct family branches of the the German Illuminati at Ingolstadt - and that the Illuminati almost certainly survived by subsuming itself inside Freemasonry.
I am unsure of the Russian angle as presented, if only because of the past involvement in Russian affairs and history by secret societies -- but time will tell - but there is certainly an urgent need to have a counter-balance against the western One World plan.

I am reminded of an analysis of the Israeli Supreme Court in Vigilant Citizen which is loaded with occult symbolism. Can't place it now but I recall something about occultism being imported by Venetian banking clans northward and ultimately coming to rest in the UK. The term Anglo-Zionist empire might suggest a very deep and occult connection.
David, I do recall you saying that all occult symbolism starts with the Qaballah.

Yep, the Qabalah is the bedrock of all western occult systems these days, Lauren. It also has many levels of understanding. My experience is that most focus on the intellectual aspects of it - and it can take a lifetime dwelling on that. But it's real strength is its far deeper nature where is becomes a roadmap of the Unconscious, allowing safe and secure navigation in those vast realms for those who know how to access them. Travelling there will always have an impact on the psychology of the traveller - albeit sometime after the event and often mild (but not always so).
My own view is that the Qabalah arrived in Europe via the Holy Wars and quite probably were the "treasure" brought home by the Templar Knights (not to mention the Jewish diaspora in Spain) in the 1100's (and, of course the traditional story of 9 knights guarding pilgrims visiting the Holy Land is sheer nonsense). There are a number of indications about this, but one important one revolves around the "decorations" in stone cut into the great French cathedrals, which is why Fulcanelli's book "The Mystery of the Cathedrals" is such an important book in my view - because it was largely the Templars who financed those decorations. And because the Qabalah possesses a somewhat "plastic" nature it can be adapted to fit in with almost any religious or sacred system - and in the case of the Templars it became the system of Catholic esotericism - but also moved north and was adapted to the belief system there also. Etc.
I have to point out that I'm far from a scholar on this and might have much of this wrong, but I think it is reasonably accurate in general.

This very intriguing line raises the question of some sort of hybridity in esoterism that underlay Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish powerful banking and royal families and that we are now seeing this amalgam as the NWO. It just seems that the various "factions" magically seem to be organized in the same direction. Oops, did I say magically?

Also interesting is the article Sir Herbert Tooth recently copied to me from the espionage history archive concerning the Bolsheviks investigations into the very same subjects that the later Nazi Ahnenerbe also investigated - for example, Hyperborea, Shamballa, visits to Tibet. The parallels are, for me, quite extraordinary:
Quote:THE BOLSHEVIKS' OCCULT WARAPRIL 16, 2016 MARK HACKARD 3 COMMENTS
In his analysis of the modern world, French Traditionalist thinker René Guénon noted that the true masters of revolutions, materialism and secularism were not actually ends in themselves, but only the initial phases in the occult processing of society. The ultimate end of the cryptocratic elites, Guénon believed, was the destruction of sacred tradition and the enthronement of infernal forces in a new counter-religion. With the experience of the Bolshevik Revolution and early-period Soviet intelligence's forays into the realms of the esoteric, we have a powerful example of Guénon's thesis in action, as recounted by contemporary Russian journalist Georgy Filin.
Sami sorcerers and Buryat shamans, connoisseurs of cryptography and ancient poisons, hypnotists and psychics, telepaths and clairvoyants who wasn't brought in to work in the OGPU [Unified State Political Directorate] Special Department directed by one of Lenin's closest colleagues, Gleb Bokii. The Special Department was consulted by luminary of Soviet psychiatry academic Vladimir Bekhterev, and one of its key officers was none other than the famed terrorist Yakov Blumkin, a favorite of Cheka head Felix Dzerzhinsky and the prototype of Maksim Isaev, Stierlitz. And Bokii himself possibly served as the prototype of another well-known personage Bulgakov's Woland. It was said that at the Chekist's dacha events frequently took place akin to the ball described in Master and Margarita.
At the beginning of the Great Fatherland War [World War II], on Hitler's personal orders, Abwehr agents searched for surviving officers of the NKVD's Special Department, disbanded by that time, and offered fantastic money 50,000 Reichsmarks to only answer in detail two or three dozen questions. In current evaluations that's half a million dollars. That was the value accorded officers of Gleb Bokii's Special Department!
Revolutionary and occultist Gleb Bokii, chief of the OGPU Special Department.Before the revolution Bokii had succeeded in making a career as a convicted bandit. Over 15 years he stood before the court 12 times, including for murders. But every time by some miracle he was able to escape, or he was acquitted and released. It's notable that no small sums for bail were brought for the bandit Bokii at various times by the mystic and hypnotist Gurdjieff, medium and clairvoyant Pavel Mokievsky, and also the Tibetan healer Pyotr Badmaev, who treated Emperor Nicholas II's family. Gleb Bokii's fighters were engaged in so-called expropriations stripping property from rich people for the use of the Social Democrats and Bolsheviks. Long before the revolution the future head of the State Security Special Department became friends with Vladimir Lenin, whom he for some reason always called by his mother's maiden name Blank. And only once did Bokii call the leader of the world proletariat the name now etched onto the Mausoleum, on the day of his arrest. "What is Stalin to me?" the arrested Chekist stated to NKVD chief Nikolai Yezhov. "I was appointed by Lenin!"
The Mystical Special Department Birthed by Two Atheists Lenin & Dzerzhinsky
In the first edition of the Bulgakov Encyclopedia, its editor Boris Sokolov brings proof that namely Gleb Boky and no one else acted as the prototype of Woland from Master and Margarita. The former chief of the 2nd Section of the Special Detachment, a certain Klimenkov, confessed during his interrogation:
He (Bokii editor) created a dacha commune' in Kuchino. Arriving for a weekend day at the dacha, Bokii's guests got drunk the entire day off and the night before the next workday. Drunken orgies were often accompanied by fights that segued into a general melee. The reason for these fights was that the husbands noticed the debauchery of their wives with the men present. After an extraordinary bender, everyone would go to the bathhouse to engage in sexual perversion. The women were made to drink until drunk, stripped, and used one after another. All members of the "commune" participated in this, including Bokii's daughters. The debauchery led to several suicides on the basis of jealousy.
Bulgakov supposedly found out about the commune's mores from the poet Andrei Bely, who had lived there in Kuchino. "The Chekists possibly seemed to Bulgakov contemporary analogues of the demonic," wrote Boris Sokolov. And indeed, the orgies of Bokii and his subordinates even exceeded what happened at Satan's ball, as birthed through the writer's fantasy.
Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut is only a recent cultural depiction of deviant elites, an update of Woland's ball in Master and Margarita.But in Soviet history Bokii remained not only as a possible prototype of a famous literary personage and the arranger of debauched entertainments. In the summer of 1918 already after the assassination of German Ambassador Von Mirbach, but before his flight to Ukraine Yakov Blumkin, the chief of Trotsky's personal security, introduced Gleb Bokii to academic Vladimir Bekhterev and Aleksandr Barchenko, an employee of Bekhterev's Brain Institute. It turned out that all four believed in otherworldly forces, practiced occultism, and were not against pressing their esoteric knowledge into the service of the young Soviet state. It's incredible that these four different men managed to interest the head of the Cheka, Felix Dzerzhinsky, with a proposal to create a special department that would research various types of mystical phenomena. And in 1921 Dzerzhinsky, absolutely not a believer in any such thing and an atheist to the marrow of his bones, would sign alongside another atheist Vladimir Lenin a resolution on creating a special department under the OGPU. For tradecraft it was termed a cryptographic department why would you openly call it the Department of Mysticism, Mind-Reading and Sorcery?
Agents of the Special Department Knew Tibet Better Than Nicholas Roerich
It was proposed to Gleb Bokii to head the Special Department; Bokii's deputy for "scientific research" was Aleksandr Barchenko. At the beginning of the 1920's, Barchenko organized his first expedition to the center of the Kola Peninsula. The objective: study of mass hypnosis, "polar madness," which the Pomors called "hysteria," and the Eskimos termed the "call of the North Star." Many researchers of the North encountered this phenomenon, including the famous Roald Amundsen. Members of Northern expeditions would hear "voices" summoning them to carry out seemingly insane actions, and they even attacked each other with axes and ice picks, "called by the North Star." Until this day the materials of this expedition remain classified, yet in all probability Barchenko and his companions met with success. Immediately after his debriefing report at the Brain Institute, Bokii's deputy was offered the seat of academic consultant in the Main Science Directorate.
For their research, Bokii and Barchenko obtained colossal funds for the time the average cost of one operation by the Special Department comprised around 100,000 rubles (in conversion to today's valuation, that's approximately $600,000). There followed several more expeditions to the Kola Peninsula, and in the surrounding areas of the Sami's Lake Seidozero, Barchenko uncovered ancient pyramids. The find confirmed Barchenko's version that ancient Hyperborea existed namely in these places. The Special Department's next expedition was to head to Tibet, but Bokii's plans became known to OGPU Foreign Department (INO) chief Meer Trilisser, who related to the heavy-spending Special Department with extreme jealousy. Trilisser convinced Dzerzhinsky to entrust the Tibetan mission to his men. But at the last moment, the omnipresent Yakov Blumkin was "clasped on" as an "addition" from the Special Department. The terrorist disguised himself as a Tibetan lama and followed Nicholas Roerich incognito it was namely to the latter that Trilisser had entrusted direction of the mission to Lhasa. Upon their return, neither Roerich nor Trilisser "made their mark" the information they collected was considered "of little significance." Meanwhile, high government decorations awaited Blumkin, Bokii, and Barchenko. For what were they awarded? For Blumkin presenting certain proof of the existence of the mythic Shambhala. What kind of proof will become clear after the Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) declassifies archive materials on the Tibetan expedition. This was planned to be done in 1993 and again in 2000, but for some reason these materials still haven't been declassified.
Artist, occultist and international intriguer Nicholas Roerich's painting of Tibet.Dubious Research Was Financed for a Decade and a Half
In 1926 on Dzerzhinsky's personal orders, Barchenko undertook an expedition to Crimea. The objective was the search for entrances to the ancient cities of abandoned civilizations and the excavation of Scythian Naples and Mangup-Kale. In two years an expedition to Altai would follow there they would conduct observation of unidentified flying objects (for the first time in Soviet history!), and then Barchenko awaited a return to the Kola Peninsula. There Barchenko searched for a certain "stone from Orion" or "Grail stone" supposedly accumulating and transferring psychic energy at a distance and securing contact with the cosmos. Nonsense? Then why are the materials of this expedition still top secret? Also, Barchenko's findings only became known just 25 years ago from declassified documents of Hitler secret organization, the Ahnenerbe. We also know that over the 15-year history of Bokii's Special Department's existence, it was refused financing one time only. In those somewhat naive times, such a practice as "budget cuts" in principle didn't exist, just like the practice of all sorts of "skimming." It's impossible to allow even the notion that tremendous funds were allotted by the Soviet leadership to a purposely hopeless cause. Does that mean that the results of the Special Department's expeditions were nevertheless convincing?
In 1935, right after the creation of the Ahnenerbe, its general secretary Wolfram Sievers signed an order on studying the results of expeditions organized by Boky's institution. But how did the Germans even find out that the Soviet Union was conducting analogous esoteric research? It's possible a leak occurred during Bokii and Barchenko's contacts with Professor Karl Haushofer in the mid-1920's. According to rumors, Barchenko and Haushofer were even in the same Masonic lodge, but we can only guess whether this was indeed so. Haushofer and Sievers seriously thought that he who masters Tibet the "heart of the world" would also become master of the entire world. And Boky's Special Department possessed such secrets. However it was, the Germans came across not a few secret materials either from Barchenko himself, or through some other channels. And in the war years, the German intelligence services genuinely set out to hunt down officers of the disbanded department, driving to fill their knowledge at the cost of the latter.
The Promethean (Luciferian) themes in this Bolshevik revolutionary propaganda poster are hard to miss.Bokii and Barchenko were arrested in 1937 it's not excluded from the signal of Trilisser, who treated the Special Department extremely covetously. In that year Bokii was shot, and Barchenko was executed just a year later, after he had left a detailed description of the work performed by the Special Department. Out of 189 officers of the "cryptographic" department, by the beginning of the war, not more than 50 remained alive.

This very intriguing line raises the question of some sort of hybridity in esoterism that underlay Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish powerful banking and royal families and that we are now seeing this amalgam as the NWO. It just seems that the various "factions" magically seem to be organized in the same direction. Oops, did I say magically?
I well remember that Lagarde clip. Very revealing, I thought.
On the other matter, I think it is that the underlying occult truths and techniques are universal and are, therefore, available to be tapped and adapted to whatever underlying belief system one prefers to use - or is initiated into - whether it be catholic, protestant, satanic or Islamic etc. This is because it is the same human mind that is tapping into the same Collective Unconscious and using the same general roadmap for navigational and destination purposes.
The following is going to sound extremely weird and it is only because I am growing older that I even consider relating it. But I can assure anyone interested, that it is absolutely true and remains absolutely crystal clear in my memory -- as though it happened yesterday (which is a strong feature of such experiences) -- and took place in 100% technicolour and was (and remains) as real as anything that could ever happen in the here and now (which is another marked feature of the "there and then").
Although I have never once had anything to do with the Catholic church, never-the-less during one of my regular forays "there" I came across a very, very catholic procession of four monks dressed in black hooded robes with each bearing an item of great Christian symbolism. These included a very large gold cross held by one frater at his waist and reaching well above his head (leading the procession), followed by another bearing a very large golden platter - resting on an ancient blood red coloured velvet cushion - that bore the body of a slaughtered lamb. The last one in that procession carried a wavy "serpent" sword held, again from the waist, and pointing upwards until after the procession passed me - at which point he turned and plunged the sword into the earthen floor, left it there and then joined his fellow monks as they continued processing along the corridor of the castle. Hitherto I had been able to travel along that corridor at my ease as I headed towards other destinations, but the sword became an invisible barrier past which I could no longer pass. In fact it took me several more days before I was able to "defeat" the invisible barrier and pass through again.
There was no malice involved, it was just a case of me not being invited to, or a party of, "their" ritual and, therefore, was denied access.

Quote: never discussed and unknown "secret engine" that historically drove and almost certainly still drives the Anglo-American camp.
Once again, I am trying to direct the discussion toward the "secret regime" and whether Zionism is a deep part of that in some occult ways?
In other words, through some difficult to describe processes, I am guessing that various seemingly disparate groups have been united by occult themes that have nothing to do with the Enlightenment fantasies of freedom and democracy. Are these secret societies managed in some political sense? Or are they in fact to be likened to groups possessed by the Collective Unconscious without being in direct contact with each other?
