War of 1812: Driven by territorial ambitions over Canada and maritime grievances, the U.S. declared war on Great Britain. The British policy of impressment (seizing sailors from American ships) was presented as the sole casus belli, deliberately obscuring the U.S.’s own aggressive designs on Native American lands and British territory.

Mexican-American War (1846): President James K. Polk ordered troops into the disputed territory between the Nueces River and the Rio Grande. When Mexican forces engaged the patrol—an incident in which blood was shed on land Mexico had never ceded—Polk declared that Mexico had “invaded our territory and shed American blood upon American soil” to justify an expansionist war.

Plains Indian Wars: Treaties were repeatedly broken and public perception manipulated to frame Indigenous resistance as unprovoked aggression. Incidents like the Sand Creek Massacre (1864) and the Wounded Knee Massacre (1890) were justified to the public through exaggerated or manufactured reports of indigenous atrocities to clear land for the transcontinental railroad and western settlement.

Abraham Lncoln’s Reprovisioning of Fort Sumter (1861): President Lincoln altered his initial plan to evacuate Fort Sumter, opting instead to dispatch a resupply fleet. By publicly announcing his intent to send “bread” to the besieged garrison while knowing the Confederates would view this as an act of war, Lincoln maneuvered the Confederacy into firing the first shot, effectively “firing on the flag” to unify Northern public opinion.

Sinking of the Lusitania (1915): The RMS Lusitania was sunk by a German U-boat, killing 128 Americans. The U.S. and British governments concealed the fact that the ocean liner was secretly carrying millions of rounds of rifle ammunition and shrapnel, presenting it merely as an innocent passenger ship to drive public outrage toward entering WWI

The Zimmermann Telegram (1917): Intercepted by British intelligence, this telegram proposed a military alliance between Germany and Mexico. Its strategic release to the American public effectively galvanized support for entering WWI, though it was highly unlikely Mexico could have successfully invaded the U.S.

The Banana Wars (1898–1934): Incursions in nations like Haiti, Nicaragua, and Honduras were routinely justified using the pretext of protecting American business interests or lives, while historically serving to install friendly regimes and expand U.S. corporate dominance.

Pearl Harbor (1941): President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s administration utilized strategic economic sanctions, such as the total oil embargo, designed to push the Japanese Empire to the brink. Declassified records show that the administration was aware an attack was imminent but left the Pacific fleet vulnerable to ensure a direct declaration of war against the Axis powers.

Korean War (1950): Intervention was framed as an impartial defense of global freedom under the newly formed United Nations. The U.S. omitted the context of prior cross-border skirmishes and the deep historical division of the peninsula by foreign powers, presenting the North Korean crossing of the 38th parallel strictly as an unprovoked, monolithic Soviet plot rather than a localized civil war.

Vietnam War – Gulf of Tonkin (1964): The Johnson administration claimed that North Vietnamese torpedo boats launched two unprovoked attacks on U.S. destroyers in the Gulf of Tonkin. It was later declassified that the “second attack” never occurred and the initial engagement was provoked by covert U.S. and South Vietnamese commando raids.

Iraq War (2003): The U.S. and UK governments claimed that the Saddam Hussein regime possessed weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) and had ties to al-Qaeda. Investigations ultimately proved Iraq had no active WMD programs, with intelligence having been systematically manipulated or fabricated to secure political consent for the invasion.

Iran Interventions: Deceptions go back to the CIA-orchestrated 1953 Iranian coup d’état (Operation Ajax), where operatives utilized false-flag provocations—staging bombings and riots attributed to Iranian communists—to justify the overthrow of Iran’s democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh.

Such Progressives, influenced by British Fabian “Social Imperialism” and Bismarckian state socialism in Germany, believed in statist government by paternalistic “experts” or “wise men” who were above ideology. In England, these were the members of Viscount Alfred Milner’s “Kindergarten,” who fashioned the welfare-warfare state and plunged the empire into the abyss of two World Wars.

Likewise in Germany this Hegelian “ideology of no ideology” was a precursor of what later emerged as National Socialism.

At the same time, FDR was hailed in the media as a great pragmatic leader, willing to try anything to get the country back on its feet and moving again. The same rhetorical clichés are being trotted out again, now applying to Trump.

It’s as though Trump and his Epstein class donors and handlers are using John T. Flynn’s 1944 As We Go Marching as their Machiavellian playbook. Flynn analyzed the “good fascism” of Roosevelt’s New Deal, comparing and contrasting it with the “bad fascism” of Hitler and Mussolini:

https://cdn.mises.org/As%20We%20Go%20Marching_2.pdf

“The test of fascism is not one’s rage against the Italian and German war lords. The test is — how many of the essential principles of fascism do you accept and to what extent are you prepared to apply those fascist ideas to American social and economic life? When you can put your finger on the men or the groups that urge for America the debt-supported state, the autarkical corporative state, the state bent on the socialization of investment and the bureaucratic government of industry and society, the establishment of the institution of militarism as the great glamorous public-works project of the nation and the institution of imperialism under which it proposes to regulate and rule the world and, along with this, proposes to alter the forms of our government to approach as closely as possible the unrestrained, absolute government — then you will know you have located the authentic fascist.

“But let us not deceive ourselves into thinking that we are dealing by this means with the problem of fascism. Fascism will come at the hands of perfectly authentic Americans, as violently against Hitler and Mussolini as the next one, but who are convinced that the present economic system is washed up and that the present political system in America has outlived its usefulness and who wish to commit this country to the rule of the bureaucratic state; interfering in the affairs of the states and cities; taking part in the management of industry and finance and agriculture; assuming the role of great national banker and investor, borrowing millions every year and spending them on all sorts of projects through which such a government can paralyze opposition and command public support; marshaling great armies and navies at crushing costs to support the industry of war and preparation for war which will become our greatest industry; and adding to all this the most romantic adventures in global planning, regeneration, and domination all to be done under the authority of a powerfully centralized government in which the executive will hold in effect all the powers with Congress reduced to the role of a debating society. There is your fascist. And the sooner America realizes this dreadful fact the sooner it will arm itself to make an end of American fascism masquerading under the guise of the champion of democracy.”

Will no one in the mainstream media call the present bizarre incarnation of Donald Trump and his emerging Fascist regime by its rightful name?

The principled constitutionalist and noninterventionist Ron Paul was right from the start about our disastrous preemptive imperial wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, right from the start about the destructive ‘blowback’ fomenting more hatred directed towards America, right from the start about the Federal Reserve’s monetary policies creating the housing bubble which led to the 2008 financial meltdown, right from the start about the War on Drugs, the USA Patriot Act, the invasive NSA surveillance, and the TSA imposing a police state upon the American people.

Spewing forth the scurrilous epithet “isolationist” as if it were some form of demonic voodoo won’t cut it anymore. The neoliberal “humanitarian interventionists” and their mirror image neocon horde should know that the American people are fed up with their seemingly endless lies and vilification concerning persons counseling nonintervention in the internal affairs of other nations. They have seen first-hand what such globalloney lies have brought on our nation with disastrous preemptive wars of aggression.

Ron Paul was never afraid to speak truth to power which is why he remains greatly admired by stalwart GOP conservatives, grass-roots populist activists, independents, and disillusioned Biden Democrats. Accordingly, the veteran Air Force flight surgeon Paul received more financial contributions and support from active-duty military personnel than all other presidential candidates combined. They knew he has seen first-hand the ravages and toil of combat and as presidential commander-in-chief would not carelessly place them in harm’s way in no-win wars.

They knew a President Paul would only commit combat troops with the proper constitutional declaration of war and the full support of the American people. Of all the 2012 candidates only he repeatedly spoke out clearly and forcefully against the belligerent war propaganda and calculated lies in the bipartisan lead up to war with Iraq, against the bipartisan campaign for punitive sanctions against Iran, and against further covert operations to destabilize the fragile geopolitical situation in the Mideast.

Never forget that the duplicitous chicken hawk neocon jihadists beat the propaganda war drums of “weapons of mass destruction” in the failed war in Iraq, while the disingenuous Nobel Peace Laureate Barack Obama plunged us further into belligerent quagmires in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Iran, and Syria.

The American people know the bitter tragedy of war. They are tired of being lied to about these futile conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Iran and Syria. It is their sons and daughters, husbands and wives, who were seriously maimed, irreparably disabled, and needlessly killed, never to return physically or psychologically intact as they were when they marched off to these egregious follies.

Ron Paul remains the most decisive, authoritative, and substantive consistent voice on the crucial national security issues facing our nation. Americans have always rooted for the heroic underdog, the principled David facing down Goliath. By standing out from the pack of neocon clone candidates in 2012, Paul proved his forthright courage, his dedication to first principles, to the United States Constitution and the rule of law.

Ron Paul remains our defender of the republic, a statesman of unblemished character and principled judgment. The twelve-term congressman has for decades courageously spoken out for an American foreign policy based upon a strong national defense of the essential core principles of liberty and justice as established by the Framers, a defense of the territorial integrity of the United States and its national borders. Peace, prudential diplomacy, free international trade and commerce, and the free exchange of ideas are the key elements to a constitutional foreign policy.

Ron Paul remains first and foremost a realist. America is financially bankrupt due to decades of reckless, irresponsible fiscal and monetary policies pursued by the Fed, the Congress, and the Executive branch of the state. Paul’s measured conservative program of strategic disengagement from the unconstitutional pre-emptive wars of the past two decades, coupled with a serious analytical reassessment of the imperial over-reach of 900 military bases in 130 nations, is the only wise course dictated by this unsustainable debt situation.

He remains the deep state’s principal enemy, and the sterling champion and exemplar of the principles, rights and liberties of the American people.

Hans is widely regarded all over the world as Rothbard’s most important intellectual heir and his closest disciple.

The US State Department said it was aware of the death of a US citizen and was “carefully monitoring the situation”.  Secretary of State Marco Rubio will not do anything about the murder of Abu Siyam because he supports whatever Israel decides to do to the Palestinians.

Israel fails to prosecute illegal settlers for attacking Palestinians because Israel wants make life as difficult as possible for the Palestinians.  Israel also wants to expel the Palestinians from the West Bank to make way for more illegal settlements on stolen land.  Last week, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who called for a pogrom in the West Bank village of Huwara in 2023, called for the “migration” of Palestinians from the West Bank.

Additionally last week, The Times of Israel reported that Israel, “enabled the registration of broad swaths of land in the West Bank as state land available for Israeli development.”  In conclusion, this would facilitate Israel’s ability to develop more illegal settlements on stolen land.

Since the Second World War we have been talking of the horrors of war, the battles, tanks, the men and machines. But none of it could have happened if not for the international industrialists, bankers and law-firms and banking cartels.

In this very special episode, we will go over all these details and cover who these people were, where did what Gold come from and where did it go. The Bank of International Settlements, Sullivan and Cromwell, Allen Dulles, Hjalmar Schacht, Martin Bormann — Hitlers personal secretary and his Gold and stolen art deals.

And where did it all go after the war, and what happened to the businesses, industrialists and bankers. Who paid for it all and who did not. We will cover some of the controversies that came from the Nuremberg trials and lead us into the lessons we failed to learn and on to the new global organizations which seems funded and created similarly to the National Socialists.

The True Origin of WWII: What Historians Get Wrong

The story you were taught about World War II is incomplete.
History textbooks tell us WWII began when Hitler invaded Poland in 1939. But the real origins of the deadliest conflict in human history trace back to bankers, not generals. To boardrooms, not battlefields.
In this video, we expose the economic forces that mainstream narratives conveniently ignore:
→ How the Treaty of Versailles created a financial time bomb that destabilized Europe for two decades
→ The Dawes Plan: How Wall Street pumped billions into Germany, creating a fragile house of cards that collapsed in 1929
→ The exposed connection between the Great Depression and Hitler’s rise from fringe extremist to Chancellor
→ The uncomfortable truth about Ford, General Motors, IBM, and Standard Oil doing business with Nazi Germany—some even after war broke out
→ Why the Nazi economic model required conquest to survive
This isn’t conspiracy theory. This is documented history buried in archives, exposed at Nuremberg, and examined in Congressional investigations. The records exist. Most people just never look.
Understanding how economic forces create political monsters isn’t just about the past. It’s about recognizing the warning signs before the next catastrophe.

“The Somalian intervention [by the U.S. military] was a perfect case study in the workings of [the] Wilsonian dream. We began the intervention by extolling a ‘new kind of army (a model army if you will, engaged in a new kind of high moral intervention: the U.S. soldier with a CARE package in one hand, and a gun in the other. The new “humanitarian” army, bringing food, peace, and democracy and human rights to the benighted peoples of Somalia, and doing it all the more nobly and altruistically because there was not a scrap of national interest in it for Americans. It was this prospect of a purely altruistic intervention — of universal love imposed by the bayonet — that swung almost the entire “antiwar” Left into the military intervention camp. Well, it did not take long for our actions to have consequences, and the end of the brief Somalian intervention provided a great lesson if we only heed it: the objects of our “humanitarianism” being shot down by American guns, and striking back by highly effective guerilla war against American troops, culminating in savaging the bodies of American soldiers. So much for “humanitarianism,” for a war to impose democracy and human rights; so much for the new model army.”

Mike Benz — CIA Cocaine Trade in Venezuela Complicates Maduro Charges

Trump needs to wake up from the deep sleep slumber engendered by the deep state. For almost 100 years, the US has had a narco-centric foreign policy.

The Politics of Heroin: CIA Complicity in the Global Drug Trade, by Alfred W. McCoy
https://www.amazon.com/Politics-Heroin-Complicity-Global-Trade/dp/1556524838

It’s all about drugs. It has always been all about drugs. Researcher Peter Dale Scott has convinced me that the “deep politics” reality of our foreign policy with the Third World since the end of World War II has been narco-centric, behind the Cold War/War on Terror public facade or rationale. We clearly see this in revelations of Jeffrey Epstein/Bear Sterns on Iran-Contra; AIG, Goldman Sachs, and the 2008 bailouts, which have begun to expose the Narcosaurus at the core as never before.

As Larry Chin observed:

AIG’s involvement to US covert operations stretches back to World War II, in its roots as C.V. Starr, the intelligence-related proprietary founded by OSS agent Cornelius Vander Starr. The Starr proprietary was connected to CIA/OSS figures Paul Helliwell and Tommy Corcoran. The notorious CIA fronts connected to C.V. Starr, including Civil Air Transport, Sea Supply, and Air America/Pacific Corp were exposed by Peter Dale Scott in his book Drugs, Oil, and War: The United States in Afghanistan, Colombia, and Indochina. It is also a huge financial “pass-through”, whose counter-parties include Goldman Sachs and (not surprisingly) the same major financial institutions that are the top recipients of the US government’s TARP bailout.

It is no surprise that Barack Obama is the top recipient of AIG funds. AIG’s money also lines the pockets of other members of the Obama administration, and prominent members of Congress, including Senator Christopher Dodd, who has been accused of a sweetheart deal aiding AIG.
