More clues on Paul N. Temple, "The Family," and Norman Grubb / Abraham Vereide Associations



Here are more snippets from my heavy ongoing research for my forthcoming Part VI of the unfinished NewswithViews series on "The HiJacking of Evangelicalism." The interlocking interests between the top of the New Age Movement (Institute of Noetic Sciences) and Evangelical Christianity (Fellowship Foundation, Washington, D.C.) are explored. I recommend that you IMMEDIATELY archive all links as the material has a tendency to disappear. The 990 reports of Three Swallows Foundation have become recently much more difficult to locate. Fortunately for all, I have them archived.

Paul Temple, the founder of Institute of Noetic Sciences, a pivotal New Age Movement organization comprising a virtual Who's Who of the New Age / "Cultural Creative" world had cross-movement associations reaching back many years. His World Business Academy links to his Abraham Vereide / Fellowship Foundation ties (Doug Coe and company these days) take one to NormanGrubb.com. Perhaps all was not coincidental. Norman Grubb had a deep and abiding interest in "the Great Mystics" such as Jacob Boehme and William Law. Norman Grubb preached a peculiar gospel of "Christ as us" which he called "Union Life." Bluntly, it is far more akin to "Christ Consciousness" than it is to "Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior." Paul Temple was, per his accounts, introduced to Abraham Vereide by his old law school friend, Jim Bell. Jim Bell served as Secretary of ICL (International Christian Leadership) in Washington, D.C.[1]

Also interesting is that Norman Grubb was the founder of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. I note for the record that the only threat I ever had to my face about character assassination if I did not back off the New Age Movement issues was from James W. Sire, Sr., senior editor of InterVarsity Publishers. This occurred in the Merchandise Mart Holiday Inn of Chicago, Illinois on March 20, 1983, the morning after I did a 3 hour television special with Jerry Rose at a Chicago, Illinois Christian television station.[2] Recently, I obtained a book by Sire about Vaclav Havel, the former Prime Minister of Czechoslovakia. Sire wrote openly and approvingly of Havel's "noetic moments." Vaclav Havel was an open New Ager and proudly claimed by such by the New Age communities.



From the PrivateCapitalCorp.com website, we read this of Paul Temple's business bio which proudly boasts his more exotic "cultural creative" - New Age credentials:

Attorney, investor, entrepreneur and humanist, Paul Temple has traveled far and wide to spread his business and personal influence. A Cincinnati native, he earned his AB at Princeton, JD at Harvard Law School and was a navy ensign. In the heart of his corporate career, in a stretch of eight years, he was attorney for both Celanese and Standard Oil. He made a notable jump with successive energy posts in Spain – president of Esso Affiliates and executive VP of Gas Natural SA. It was about this time, in the early 1970’s, that Paul donned his entrepreneurial hat. He co-founded Weeks Natural Resources followed by chairman responsibilities for a number of enterprises, including Energy Capital of London, Dayspring Mining, Biogenesis Enterprises, Seasoil Ltd., Gaichem Technologies, Organic Trees and Virgin Oil.
To this day, reaching for cultural and spiritual attainment, he co-founded the Institute of Noetic Sciences, the Temple Award for Creative Altruism and participated in many national and international exchanges – sponsor for Christianity, Global Forum of Spiritual and Parliamentary Leaders for Human Survival, master of ceremonies for the US-USSR Summit, and director of the Temple of Understanding. Paul’s creative side and love for music also found a home as associate producer of the film Born Again [about Charles Colson] and Broadway play Dance a Little Closer.
What was it Barbara Marx Hubbard, a close Paul Temple friend said in Seattle, Washington in April, 1988 said?:

"Now all the resonating core groups with outwardly different purposes are merging and blending and coming together to do the One Work."

You may well bet that the "One Work" was NOT to preach the true gospel to all nations!

Tonight's RADIO -- EUTHANASIA - ''MERCY KILLING' - Is there a role in new health plans?

Dorothy Margraf, myself, and any of you who care to join us on the air live tonight by calling 1-888-747-1968 will be discussing what appears to be a possible disturbing component of the proposed new "national health care solution" -- EUTHANASIA.

Several years ago, I asked a secretary to pull my "Euthanasia" file. I got busy with many phone calls and later in the day she came to me in complete tears. "Why Deborah," I asked, "whatever is wrong." "I have searched everything," she sobbed. "We have no "Youth in Asia" file.

Although humorous, this is all too often the perceived meaning of a growing black cloud on our various national and eventually global health scenes. Dorothy Margraf and I have kept up with the subject for many years and we'll discuss the growing new initiatives for it tonight.

Dr. Kevorkian, unfortunately, was only the beginning. There are many now in much more powerful positions including Professor Peter Singer and White House Advisor Rahm Emmanuel's brother who are swinging that direction.

Tune in tonight and stay tuned. 5 p.m. Pacific time, 8 p.m. Eastern time.

Please pray for us -- My husband is in emergency room

I was at the office and had just hung up from a telephone call with Carole Stevens, a local friend and reader. Immediately I received a telephone call from friends of my husband of 35 years, Barry D. MacIntosh, that his pacemaker had "gone off" and they were taking him to Crittenton Hospital's cardiac emergency room. I am waiting now.

Quite frankly, I don't know what I would do without Barry. He suffered the loss of both of his legs 30 years ago, shortly before our 5th wedding anniversary and while I was still a relatively new attorney. Barry has been a real trouper through all my trials and tribulations.

Please pray for us!

Snippet on Next Part of HI-JACKING OF EVANGELICALISM - disguised theosophy?

I am working on the Hi-Jacking of Evangelicalism, Part VI, "Evangelicalism or Disguised Theosophy." This will be published on NewswithViews.com and simultaneously here as well. I thought you might be interested in helping me evaluate this as I go along. Interestingly, Abraham ("Abram") Vereide and Frank Buchman were part of the shaping of the UN in 1945 in their San Francisco convocations. These paragraphs are from Jeff Sharlet's THE FAMILY. His source was Norman Grubb's MODERN VIKING, his biographical account of Abraham Vereide and his International Christian Leadership now very much in the news as part of the C Street Center in Washington, D.C., the address where Paul Temple sent his very large annual contributions.

"On Abraham Vereide: Vereide arrived in Washington, D.C., on September 6, 1941, as the guest of a man referred to only as “Colonel Brindley.” “Here I am finally,” he wrote to his wife, Mattie, who remained in Seattle. “In a day or two—many will know that I am in town and by God's grace it will hum.” Within weeks he had held his first D.C. prayer meeting, attended by more than a hundred congressmen. By 1943, now living in a suite at Colonel Brindley's University Club, Vereide was an insider. “My what a full and busy day!” he wrote to Mattie on January 22. The Vice President brought me to the Capitol and counseled with me regarding the programs and plans, and then introduced me to Senator Brewster, who in turn to Senator Burton—then planned further the program and enlisted their cooperation. Then to the Supreme Court for visits with some of them . . . then back to the Senate, House. . . . The hand of the Lord is upon me. He is leading.

By the end of the war, nearly a third of U.S. senators attended one of his weekly prayer meetings.

In 1944, Vereide had foreseen what he called “the new world order.” “Upon the termination of the war there will be many men available to carry on,” Vereide wrote in a letter to his wife. “Now the ground-work must be laid and our leadership brought to face God in humility, prayer and obedience.” He began organizing prayer meetings for delegates to the United Nations, at which he would instruct them in God's plan for rebuilding from the wreckage of the war. Donald Stone, a high-ranking administrator of the Marshall Plan, joined the directorship of Vereide's organization. In an undated letter, he wrote Vereide that he would “soon begin a tour around the world for the , combining with this a spiritual mission.” Vereide met with Jewish survivors and listened to their stories, but he nevertheless considered ex-Nazis well suited for the demands of “strong” government, so long as they were willing to worship Christ as they had Hitler.


I also read on page 143 of Grubb's book that in 1952, Princess Wilhelmina (the abdicated Queen Wilhelmina) of Holland served as President of ICL (International Christian Leadership). Here, I briefly note for the record that Queen Wilhelmina had been one of Krishnamurti's biggest patrons in his abortive attempt to head a "New World Order" as Maitreya or "new Christ."

Much more later! Stay tuned

Javier Solana's Growing Global Governance New World Order



7-19-2009 UPDATE: This important story has been noted over at FulfilledProphecy as well, but I thought it critical that all view it here. This clearly appears to me that Obama will be propounding Solana's plan.

7-19-2009 ORIGINAL: According to a new release from Bernama.com has announced that the EU's relationship with the ASEAN countries has "slipped into new gear." The following are the ASEAN member countries all in Southeast Asia and the Indian/Pacific oceans:


Brunei
Cambodia
Indonesia
Lao Peoples Democratic Republic
Malaysia
Myanmar
Philippines
Singapore
Thailand
Vietnam

The "new gear" includes intense cooperation as expressed by Javier Solana himself as reported by Bernama:

According to EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) Javier Solana, the EU "reached a milestone in our relations this year with the Association of South East Asian Nations (Asean) in Phnom Penh in May on the accession of the European Union and its member states to the Asean Treaty on Amity and Cooperation".

"Our mutual engagement is growing still closer and deeper, particularly in the area of building peace, security and cooperation around the globe," he said in an email to Bernama as he proceeded to Phuket in Thailand to attend the Asean Regional Forum (ARF).
More revealing were Solana's statements that this was part of a larger global integration plan:

"The EU and its Asian partners have a common resolve to tackle today's regional and global threats together and a common interest in developing a system of regional integration and global governance."
The ASEAN Ministers will be meeting from July 17th through July 23rd. Javier Solana will be there with them.

Europe raising its ire towards Israel?



Now that Javier Solana has made still another retirement announcement -- he has hinted at it several times in his tenure -- once floating a rumor that he would like to run for Mayor of Madrid, some may be paying less attention to the entire scene. I, for one, continue to closely watch.

The Palestinian press is reporting that Europe's ire towards Israel is on the rise.

For a "retiring" guy, somehow these days, Javier Solana doesn't appear so retiring. Wonder what's on his (or his successor's) table for 2010?

STUDYING US LIKE ANTHROPOLOGISTS - 'THE FUNDAMENTALISMS PROJECT'

TONIGHT'S RADIO PERSPECTIVE:

I will be analyzing and discussing "THE FUNDAMENTALISM PROJECT", something I discovered and started following in the 1980's. Did you know that "scholars" have been tracking and analyzing us as anthropologists? Martin Marty and Scott Appleby of the University of Chicago headed a well funded project to literally and figuratively determine where Biblical literalist bodies are buried. Just like Javier Solana, they fret that we "fundies" are "using the global village to full advantage." Below is an
internet found synopsis of that particular project's work:

The Fundamentalism Project: From 1987 to 1995, the Academy undertook a major comparative study of anti-modernist, anti-secular militant religious movements on five continents and within seven world religious traditions. Drawing on the expertise of hundreds of scholars across the globe, the project convened 10 conferences, involved thousands of hours of fieldwork, and examined the nature of fundamentalist movements, their institutions, and their relation to governmental policies. The study revealed similarities among fundamentalist movements, even across religious traditions, and the distinct cultural, social and political contexts in which various movements emerged. This initiative resulted in five encyclopedic scholarly volumes, published as a series; a series of documentary film and radio programs, aired on PBS and NPR, and produced in collaboration with the BBC; a companion book to the television and radio series; and three additional books. The information and analysis produced by this study continue to inform the public agenda as the United States struggles to deal with the impact of religious fundamentalism on international security in the 21st century.

POPE ENDORSES "WORLD POLITICAL AUTHORITY"


By Cliff Kincaid

July 9, 2009

Some in the media are calling it just a statement about “economic justice.” But Pope Benedict XVI’s “Charity in Truth” statement, also known as an encyclical, is a radical document that puts the Roman Catholic Church firmly on the side of an emerging world government.

In explicit and direct language, the Pope calls for a “true world political authority” to manage the affairs of the world. At the same time, however, the Pope also warns that such an international order could “produce a dangerous universal power of a tyrannical nature” and must be guarded against somehow.

The New York Times got it right this time, noting the Pope’s call for a world political authority amounted to endorsement of a New World Economic Order, a long-time goal of the old Soviet-sponsored international communist movement. Bloomberg.com highlighted the Pope’s call for a new world order with “teeth.”

The Pope’s shocking endorsement of a “World Political Authority,” which has prophetic implications for some Christians who fear that a global dictatorship will take power in the “last days” of man’s reign on earth, comes shortly after the United Nations Conference on the World Financial and Economic Crisis issued a call for global taxes and more powerful global institutions. U.N. General Assembly President, Miguel D’Escoto, a Communist Catholic Priest, gave a speech at the event calling on the nations of the world to revere “Mother Earth” but concluded with words from the Pope blessing the conference participants.

The controversial Papal statement comes just before a meeting of the G-8 nations and a scheduled meeting between the Pope and President Obama at the Vatican on July 10.

Sounding like Obama himself, Pope Benedict says this new international order can be accomplished through “reform of the United Nations Organization, and likewise of economic institutions and international finance, so that the concept of the family of nations can acquire real teeth.”

The “teeth” may come in adopting the global environmental agenda, which the Pope warmly embraces.

Sounding like Al Gore, the Pope said that one pressing need is “a worldwide redistribution of energy resources, so that countries lacking those resources can have access to them.” He adds that “This responsibility is a global one, for it is concerned not just with energy but with the whole of creation, which must not be bequeathed to future generations depleted of its resources.”

“The Church has a responsibility towards creation and she must assert this responsibility in the public sphere,” he explains.

In a statement that sounds like an endorsement of a new global warming treaty, which will be negotiated at a U.N. conference in December, the Pope says, “The international community has an urgent duty to find institutional means of regulating the exploitation of non-renewable resources, involving poor countries in the process, in order to plan together for the future.”

“The technologically advanced societies can and must lower their domestic energy consumption, either through an evolution in manufacturing methods or through greater ecological sensitivity among their citizens.” he declares.

In terms of how this new “world political authority” should look, the Pope says that it, too, should have “teeth” in the form of “the authority to ensure compliance with its decisions from all parties, and also with the coordinated measures adopted in various international forums.” Pope Benedict declares that “such an authority would need to be universally recognized and to be vested with the effective power to ensure security for all, regard for justice, and respect for rights.”

But the document, which is more than 30,000 words long, is contradictory in that it pretends that a world government can co-exist with freedom and democracy. For example, the statement calls for “a greater degree of international ordering, marked by subsidiarity, for the management of globalization.” The term “subsidiarity” is usually defined as having matters handled by local authorities, not international bureaucrats.

In another example of double-speak, the Pope declares that “Globalization certainly requires authority, insofar as it poses the problem of a global common good that needs to be pursued. This authority, however, must be organized in a subsidiary and stratified way, if it is not to infringe upon freedom and if it is to yield effective results in practice.”

He doesn’t explain how it will be possible for citizens to influence or control this “world political authority” when they are under its bureaucratic control.

In the statement about how the New World Order could turn into a tyranny, the Pope is also contradictory, declaring that “...the principle of subsidiarity is particularly well-suited to managing globalization and directing it towards authentic human development. In order not to produce a dangerous universal power of a tyrannical nature, the governance of globalization must be marked by subsidiarity, articulated into several layers and involving different levels that can work together.”

Against, he doesn’t explain how people on the local or even national levels will be able to resist this tyranny.

In a strong endorsement of foreign aid, the Pope says that “In the search for solutions to the current economic crisis, development aid for poor countries must be considered a valid means of creating wealth for all.”

But there must be more. He says that “...more economically developed nations should do all they can to allocate larger portions of their gross domestic product to development aid, thus respecting the obligations that the international community has undertaken in this regard.”

This statement seems to be an urgent call for fulfilment of the U.N.’s Millennium Development Goals, which involve an estimated $845 billion from the U.S. over a ten-year period.

The Pope goes on to say that the social order should conform to the moral order, but the fact is that on moral issues such as abortion and homosexuality, the agenda of the United Nations is opposed to that of the Catholic Church. Even on capital punishment, there is disagreement. The U.N. opposes it while traditional church teaching (Section 2267 of the Catholic Catechism) allows it in certain cases.


In his statement, the Pope declares that “Some non-governmental Organizations work actively to spread abortion, at times promoting the practice of sterilization in poor countries, in some cases not even informing the women concerned. Moreover, there is reason to suspect that development aid is sometimes linked to specific health-care policies which de facto involve the imposition of strong birth control measures. Further grounds for concern are laws permitting euthanasia as well as pressure from lobby groups, nationally and internationally, in favour of its juridical recognition.”


What he doesn’t mention is that some of these groups operate through and with the support of the United Nations.


A Catholic reader has asked that his reaction to the following material she has submitted in our comments section be solicited:


When you interview Cliff Kinkaid [SIC] Tuesday evening regarding Pope Benedict XVI's "evident endorsement" of New World Order machinery and system - please read him this reply from John-Henry Westen in his July 8, 2009 LifeSiteNews article:

Pope's New Encyclical Speaks AGAINST, not for One-World Government and New World Order

Newspapers, blogs, talk-shows on radio and television are full of discussion over Pope Benedict XVI's supposed call for a "new world order" or a "one-world government." These ideas are, however, neither based in reality nor a clear reading of the Pope's latest encyclical, Caritas in Veritate, the release of which yesterday spawned the heated discussion.

The Pope actually speaks directly against a one-world government, and, as would be expected from those who have read his previous writings, calls for massive reform of the United Nations. Confusion seems to have come from paragraph 67 of the encyclical, which has some choice pull-quotes which have spiced the pages of the world's news, from the New York Times to those of conspiracy theorist bloggers seeing the Pope as the Anti-Christ.

The key quote which has led to the charge reads: "To manage the global economy; to revive economies hit by the crisis; to avoid any deterioration of the present crisis and the greater imbalances that would result; to bring about integral and timely disarmament, food security and peace; to guarantee the protection of the environment and to regulate migration: for all this, there is urgent need of a true world political authority, as my predecessor Blessed John XXIII indicated some years ago."

However, in paragraph 41, the Holy Father specifically differentiates his concept of a world political authority from that of a one-world government. "We must," he says "promote a dispersed political authority." He explains that "The integrated economy of the present day does not make the role of States redundant, but rather it commits governments to greater collaboration with one another. Both wisdom and prudence suggest not being too precipitous in declaring the demise of the State. In terms of the resolution of the current crisis, the State's role seems destined to grow, as it regains many of its competences. In some nations, moreover, the construction or reconstruction of the State remains a key factor in their development."

Later in the encyclical (57) he speaks of the opposite concept to one- world government -subsidiarity (the principle of Catholic social teaching which states that matters ought to be handled by the smallest, lowest or least centralized competent authority) - as being essential. "In order not to produce a dangerous universal power of a tyrannical nature, the governance of globalization must be marked by subsidiarity," says the Pope.

Another of the key quotes which is being extracted for shock value from the encyclical is this: "In the face of the unrelenting growth of global interdependence, there is a strongly felt need, even in the midst of a global recession, for a reform of the United Nations Organization, and likewise of economic institutions and international finance, so that the concept of the family of nations can acquire real teeth."

Since long before his papacy, Joseph Ratzinger has vigorously fought the United Nations' vision of a 'New World Order'. As early as 1997, and repeated subsequently, Ratzinger took public aim at such a vision, noting that the philosophy coming from UN conferences and the Millennium Summit "proposes strategies to reduce the number of guests at the table of humanity, so that the presumed happiness [we] have attained will not be affected."

"At the base of this New World Order", he said is the ideology of "women's empowerment," which erroneously sees "the principal obstacles to [a woman's] fulfillment [as] the family and maternity." The then-cardinal advised that "at this stage of the development of the new image of the new world, Christians - and not just them but in any case they even more than others - have the duty to protest."

Benedict XVI in fact repeats those criticisms in the new encyclical. In Caritas in Veritate, the Pope slams "practices of demographic control, on the part of governments that often promote contraception and even go so far as to impose abortion." He also denounces international economic bodies such as the IMF and World Bank (without specifically naming them) for their lending practices which tie aid to so-called 'family planning.' "There is reason to suspect that development aid is sometimes linked to specific health-care policies which de facto involve the imposition of strong birth control measures," says the encyclical.

Any vision of a proper ordering of the world, of international economics or political cooperation, suggests the Pope, must be based on a "moral order." That includes first and foremost "the fundamental right to life" from conception to natural death, the recognition of the family based on marriage between one man and one woman as the basis of society and freedom for faith and cooperation among all peoples based on principles of natural law.

Conflict growing between EU's Solana and Israel?


Javier Solana is calling for a UN Resolution for a forced peace and two state solution between Israel and Palestine. Israel has said that is a violation of existing codified international law. Quoting from the Ynet (Israeli) news service:












The Foreign Ministry rejected Sunday a call by EU foreign policy chief Javer Solana on the UN to recognize a Palestinian state by a certain deadline even if Israelis and Palestinians have not reached agreement among themselves.


"According to UN Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338, the Road Map and the treaties signed between the two sides, a solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict can only be reached through negotiations," said the ministry in a statement. (Roni Sofer)


The party appears to have a current potential for getting soon rough. Stay tuned!

A 2005 Paper from the Old Björn -- not the one I recently met on his "other blogspot"

UPDATE: RADIO PROGRAMS:

TONIGHT'S GUEST: MARY JO HEILAND: CONTINUATION OF NEW AGE PROGRAMMED SCHOOL CHILDREN, PPBS ETC.



I have been perusing the foreign language links to Björn's work to try and arrive at the truth given the extreme nature of his "other blogspot". I noted the other day an article he had written about the perils of a coming "cashless society." I now found this well written 2005 article by him that I assumed would be Polish and/or Hungarian. I was pleasantly surprised to find it was English. Here he says little I would disagree with. My question is this: If this is what Bjorn truly believed/believes why would he go with such ease over to what clearly could be called "the dark side," abandoning wife and children (I understand from European sources close to him this is what happened -- not 'kicked out' as he wrote on his site) and writing glowingly about Odin/Shiva/Wotan and even Satan himself. I am indeed praying for Bjorn, but I am fully cognizant of New Age agendas to scope out our networks and gain Christian confidence.

Only Bjorn knows the full truth, but I don't think he has been fully forthcoming with us -- so far. I have written him privately, but so far have not found a reply. I wish the old Bjorn Freiberg would return to us. I do miss him and what I thought were his true feelings and insights.

The article is immediately below.

Europa quo vadis 2005?

Björn Freiberg1

Abstract

Starting with a definition of transformation, the presentation takes a look at the recent developements in the European countries after the French and the Dutch rejected the European constitution. It tries to connect developements in France(the „October riots”), Germany(the 2005 election), Great Britain( the London Terror attacks, Tony Blair in trouble?) and their influence for the Foreign Politics especially towards the Middle European Region and its meaning for the power relations in the European Union.

1. Definition of "transformation"

Besides the fact that in many other fields of Science we find definitions for the term „transformation” the emphasis should be laid on relevant definitions concerning the field of Social and Political Sciences. By the Greek word „metamorphosis” is meant a change of form or structure into another without loosing substance. Especially in Social and Political Sciences we observe structural conversion, change or mutation. This includes changes like changes from centrally planned economy into free market economy (socalled „transformism”) or change from one form of society into another; further a conversion of a political system into another system, whereby is meant a basic change or exchange of the political regime sometimes also of the social and economic order. In Political Sciences especially changes from dictatures to democracies are analysed. Special attendance is given here to the socalled „countries of the third wave of democratization“ (Samuel Huntington), i.e. countries with sytemchange to democracy after 1974: the right dictatures of South Europe (Portugal, Greece, Spain), the capitalistic autocracies in Eastasia (Philippines, Taiwan, Southkorea, Thailand) or the former socialist coutries in Cental and Eastern Europae (Hungary, Poland, Russlia, Balkan, Baltic area, Ukraine).

Another usage of the word came up during the early 1990s, when “transformation” came to be associated with the massive plan to change national education systems. “Education transformation” was a term nuanced with esoteric meaning - referring not only to the comprehensive “economic, social and cultural health of the society,”2 but also, in global education circles, to education in “higher order thinking skills” to facilitate the collective evolution of consciousness.3 Interesting enough those education reform gurus were using the term in the same way that the New Age Theosophists were using it. Founder of the Theosophist movement was Helena P. Blavatsky, who heavyly influenced with her occult works the philosophy of UNESCO, worked out this term already in her book „the Secret Doctrine” more than hundert years ago.

New meanings for the word “transformation” entered the modern lexicon in the early 1980s. New Age author Marilyn Ferguson, who is credited with launching the “coming out party” for Luciferian Theosophists, extensively used the term. She defined it as “transformation of consciousness,” “a new seeing,” “conscious evolution,” and a “paradigm change.” Transformation was an essential part of the Teilhardian leap from “individual evolution” to “collective evolution.”4

Once - at the beginning of the 80's already prevailed a bad tendency in the institutions for the European Union, since the process of integration seems to have los at dynamics. Jacques Delors caused at that time a turn, by providing enthusiasm with his project of the common domestic market. We asked ourselves in June 2005: What will the politicians do this time?

This time the CFSP could fuel to the process of integration new dynamics: This goal was tried to achive already since 19985: By the establishment of a military staff and a security committee, the structure of of a good relationship to NATO and with the creation of the office of Solana, who lends the CFSP face and voice.

„EUROPA | EU Official Documents | European Commission | Secretariat-General |

General Report 1998 - Chapter V: Role of the Union in the world

Section 1: Common foreign and security policy (3/24)

666. In December the Vienna European Council expressed the opinion that the Secretary-General of the Council and High Representative for the CFSP should be appointed as soon as possible and be a personality with a strong political profile. It invited the Council to prepare common strategies on Russia, Ukraine, the Mediterranean region and the western Balkans, on the understanding that the first would be on Russia. Welcoming the new impetus given to the debate on a common European policy on security and defence, the European Council also noted that the CFSP should be backed by credible operational capabilities (1).

European Commission; Manuscript completed January 1999“6.

The Helsinki Headline Goal process provided further development of the capacities, both the military and the civilian, for effective crisis management.

In Paragraph 12 of Document A/WEU REC 666 from 5 June 2000, Forty-sixth session (First Part) RECOMMENDATION 666: on the consequences of including certain functions of WEU in the European Union - reply to the annual report of the Council” we find:

„12 Support proposals for the WEU Secretary-General and CFSP High Representative to preside over the PSC and civilian crisis-management machinery and give him powers to convene the Council of the European Union in the event of an emergency”.

An in Paragraph 15:

„15 Assist the European Union in coordinating civilian and military crisis management using the CIMIC concept as a basis and inform the Assembly about this concept”7.

Not to remain unmentioned, in December 2003 the Council of the European Union adopted the European Securtity Strategy, the so-called Solana paper“.

However the European Union acted even more activly: Examples:the police mission in Bosnia, the military takover of WEU -, today police operation in Macedonia and the first autonomously accomplished operation in the Congo. On the Balkans and also in Iran the European Union was noticed as a participant with regard to foreign policy, which was confirmed by Solanas membership in the Middle East quartet.

3. Germany 2005

The German election had its consequenses for the inner and outer European Politics:

On 1st of July: Schröder asked the German Parliament, if they trust him anymore and the Parliament voted against him. So Schröder asked for dissolvation of the parliament, which was allowed by the German president Horst Köhler on 21.of July, together with his demand for new elections.

Already one week later, at 7th of July High Representive for EU Foreign Affairs and WEU General Secretary and General Secratry of the Council of the European Union Javier Solana meets Angela Merkel, candidate of the opposition party CDU, in Berlin. Both Angela Merkel (CDU) and Gerhard Schröder (SPD) claimed victory and the Chancellorship as the exit polls came in. As it became clear that neither could form a majority government within the existing coalitions, both said that they would negotiate with all parties that had won seats except the Left Party, whilst the leaders of the Left Party rejected any possibility of participating in a coalition with either of the two main parties. Finally the Merkel-led grand coalition government took office at the end of November after the parliament elected Merkel chancellor.

Merkel nominated Christoph Heusgen, who served as chief-of-staff for EU top diplomat Javier Solana from 1999 to 2005, as Merkel's chancellery Foreign Affairs adviser. This change is meant to bring also a change into the international role of Germany, as Dr. Heusgen already mentioned: "It is a fact that we have a value-bound Foreign Policy."8

What does that mean? In Heusgens own words: "All these are trouble spots," Heusgen said at the time. "One way or another, the EU has to play a role, get member states to work together to try and anticipate and avoid conflicts."9 Heusgen is a fervent advocate for a strong Europe. As head of the unit charged with analyzing crisis situations and possible responses, he's become also a strong proponent of EU-wide military cooperation. "We need to be able to, when it is necessary, involve ourselves militarily,"10

Concerning the Politics towards the East we can await a change. Before the Russian-German relation was dominated by the friendship between Schroeder and Putin and so somewhat very emotional, also in its results. In the already cited „Zeit-interview” it says:

„...In handling Russia for example. There he felt in Brussels bitterly, how much the friendship between Putin and Schroeder makes unsure the Eastern Europeans. "I am for the revival of the Weimar triangle", says Heusgen, thinks thus of a new partnership with France and Poland. He wants to merge stronger with Warsaw, call more frequently the Baltics and if the shedule allows it, to send also the woman Chancellor once. Small gestures with signal effect. "Germany can reach so much, if it binds the others more in, says Heusgen and dreams even about an axle Merkel - Zapatero. Already Kohl had once maintained best relations with the Spanish socialist González.” And again in the also already cited article from the International Tribune it says: „His mettle will be tested as Germany prepares to take over the EU presidency in 2007. Already, there are suggestions that Berlin will make a major effort to relaunch the constitution. His other big challenge is to prevent Europe from tearing itself apart, as it nearly did before the U.S.-led war against Iraq, when Britain and several East European countries supported Washington while Germany, France and Russia led the opposition.Heusgen has already said he wants no return to the French-German-Russian coalition that upset many EU member states because they believed Germany was turning its back on political integration and failing to protect them against the bigger member states.Then there is the Warsaw Triangle, a forum where France, Germany and Poland have held regular consultations but with few results and which Heusgen wants to give real substance. That could be tricky.”11

Concerning the wishes of the Turkey of becoming a member of the EU Merkel had insisted on a "privileged partnership" suggestion for Turkey during her election campaign, unlike former German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, who was a strong supporter of Turkey's full membership in the Union12. But not so any longer: „German leader Angela Merkel has sought to reassure her Turkish counterpart that she will not stand in the way of Ankara's membership talks with the EU...Germany's new chancellor, Angela Merkel, has said that "things will develop well" with Turkey, and has acknowledged Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's statement that Berlin and Ankara "will walk hand in hand as always". Merkel met with Erdogan during the Euro-Mediterranean summit in Barcelona on 27 November and she reassured the Turkish leader that "'pacta sunt servanda [agreements must be respected] applies and that things will develop well"13.

By the way, Erdogan is about - together with Spanish Premier Zapatero - to push for a socalled „Alliance of Civilizations”. This initiative was launched by Erdogan and Zapatero under the auspices of UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan. Erdogan went to Barcelona to represent Turkey in the Euromed Summit where the fight against terrorism, economic reform, methods to produce concrete regional commitments on human rights, good governance, democracy and transparency and education will top the agenda.“

And Merkel sounded loud on her first official trip as Chancellor to London to the other EU member countries: „Stop squabbling and work together!“...“She announced that Germany and Britain would resume annual policy meetings of the two governments, bringing together all the ministers of both sides to co-ordinate decisions more closely. It could all add up to a quiet revolution. In her first two days Mrs Merkel had added a lot to the European mix: Atlanticism, economic realism, a call for tolerance instead of the blame game, and a special concern for the new member states of former Eastern Europe. She is to visit Poland on 2 December14.

4. Great Britain 2005

On first of August 2005 Great Britain was due to take over the Presidency of the Council of the EU. But before, London suffered a big trauma: The explosions of some bombs in the public traffic system on July 07.

At July 08.2005, just one day(sic) after London terror attacks the German Parliament approved an electronic passport plan to begin Nov. 1, with Lufthansa Airlines and Siemens AG of Munich initiating a test in which passengers’ thumbprints will be used to verify identity before boarding a plane to tighten securitry15.

At 07.09.2005, two days(sic) after the London terror attacks, the EU published the following information on how it was to improve anti-terror measures: "...The European Commission said it will speed up efforts to create an EU-wide intelligence network and improve its emergency plans in the wake of Thursday's bombing attacks on London's transport system. The European Union is to speed up work on a rapid response program to coordinate pan-European reactions to large-scale terror attacks, such as the series of coordinated bombings that hit London on Thursday, EU Justice and Security Commissioner Franco Frattini said... Next week, on July 13, the (European) Commission will discuss further measures in the fight against terrorism, in particular a proposal for a terrorism-related rapid response mechanism," Frattini said..."16.

But there was more to come: Four months later Brithish Premier Tony Blair tried to get a vote for his own security package in Great Britain’s parliament. For the public the result was sold as a desasterous loss for Blair: "NEWS BRIEF: British Anti-Terror Legislation Defeat Raises Questions Over Blair's Political Future, London(AP) - The House of Commons' vote to quash Tony Blair's anti-terror legislation dealt the prime minister his first-ever defeat - an embarrassing setback that raises doubts about his political future. Blair had staked his authority on the plan to detain terror suspects for 90 days without charge and doggedly refused to compromise. But some 49 of his own lawmakers, including 11 former ministers, joined forces with opposition parties to defeat the measure Wednesday ... Now that rebels have inflicted their first defeat, some question how long he will survive as prime minister."17

...However, Blair really got all he wanted anyway: The English „Insider” writes: „The British regime achieved a major victory in parliament yesterday, successfully passing a new anti-terror bill containing an extensive package of new and increased powers for the authorities and new and increased restrictions on the public. Unfortunately, few ordinary people in the UK are aware of the changes approved yesterday by their elected representatives, because to date they have been barely mentioned in the mass media ... In an impressive exercise of mass deception, the mass media in the UK are universally portraying this as a historic 'defeat', and indeed, this is the top story in every mass media news outlet in the country today, on TV, on the radio and in the press, without exception. So powerful is the message from the mass media that even alternative outlets for news and commentary, most notably the independent blogs and web sites, have seized on the news as a story about the 'defeat' of new anti-terror laws. We are unable to find a single example, apart from the article that you are now reading, that highlights government's success in passing a major new anti-terror new bill with virtually no amendments. If this is how we define 'defeat' or failure, surely success would require a dictatorship. In reality, the 'defeat' described by the mass media is nothing more than a slight change to one part of one point in the long list of proposals advanced by the government -- namely the infamous '90 days' proposal, which was reduced to a month instead of six months. This proposal would literally give policemen the power to sentence people to six-months in prison without evidence, without a trial or an opportunity to defend against the charge, in fact without even charging the prisoner with any crime."17

The rest of this article details how the major mass media in Great Britain successfully turned a practical, strategic victory for the Prime Minister into a Public Relations "terrible defeat" which could threaten his longevity in office. Thus, the average person in Great Britain who was concerned that his rights and liberties were threatened by this "Patriot Act" type of laws can go back to sleep -- falsely assured that Blair's proposals for a dictatorship were decisively "defeated".

The power of propaganda...

Finally on 2005, Dec. 1, European Union Justice ministers have adopted a new counter-terrorism strategy that includes potential terror recruitment concerns. The ministers, meeting in Brussels, backed a British proposal set forth after the July London bombings. De Vries said the objective of the strategy was to prevent terrorist attacks, especially in protecting delicate infrastructure such as transport systems, the EU Observer reported, and suggested a special body in every member state be established to deal only with counter-terrorism.18

5. France 2005

In June 2005 the French and short after the Dutch population voted against the EU constitution. European Politicians did not get tired to assure that this was not an expression against the constitution, they would regard it more like a general unhappiness of the voters with the national rules of France and Netherlands. Then came a hot summer.

The 2005 civil unrests in France and neighboring countries was a series of riots and other forms of violent clashes between thousands of youths (predominantly of French Muslim background) from poor suburbs and the French Police (as well as the police of neighboring countries).

The riots began on Thursday 27 October 2005 in the banlieues of Paris. They peaked on the night of 7 November, affecting 274 communes. On 17 November, the French police declared a return to a normal situation throughout France, saying that the 98 vehicles torched the previous night corresponded to the usual average. According to the official count, 8,973 vehicles were torched during the 20 nights of rioting, with 2,888 arrests, and 126 police injured. The riots were triggered by the deaths of two teenagers in Clichy-sous-Bois, next to: Aulnay-sous-Bois, a poor commune in an eastern banlieue (suburb) of Paris. Initially confined to the Paris area, the unrest subsequently spread to other areas of the Île-de-France région, and spread through the outskirts of France's urban areas, also affecting some rural areas.

After 3 November it spread to other cities in France, affecting all 15 of the large aires urbaines in the country. Thousands of vehicles were burned, and at least one person was killed by the rioters. Close to 2900 rioters were arrested.19 Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy after the fourth night of riots declared a zero tolerance policy towards urban violence and announced that seventeen companies of riot police (C.R.S.) and seven mobile police squadrons (escadrons de gendarmerie mobile) would be stationed in contentious Paris neighborhoods.

On 8 November, President Jacques Chirac declared a state of emergency effective at midnight. Despite the new regulations, riots continued, though on a reduced scale, the following two nights, and again worsened the third night. On 9 November and the morning of 10 November a school was burned in Belfort, and there was violence in Toulouse, Lille, Strasbourg, Marseille, and Lyon. The state of emergency gives authorities the power to regulate or forbid circulation and gathering in some areas, as well as the right to close places of gathering. It may also give the military authority the power to act in place of civilian authorities, if a decree specifies it explicitly. It is unclear though how some of the legal possibilities can be implemented currently, because of various legal changes since the 1950s. Since 1955, three other states of emergency have been decreed in France: in 1955 in Algeria due to independentist unrest, in 1958 due to the uprising in Algeria and in 1984 in New Caledonia due to independentist troubles.

Author Tracy R. Twyman writes: „...there was another organization operating under the umbrella of the Priory of Sion known as “Alpha Galates”, lead by M. Pierre Plantard, a direct descendant of Dagobert II, who would one day become the "Grand Master of the Priory of Sion" itself. Alpha Galates was largely concerned with politics, both of France and of Europe in general. They also published a strange little magazine called Vaincre (Victory). One of their goals was: The creation of a ’new western order’, a ‘young European chivalry’ whose keynote was to be ‘Solidarity.’ Within each European nation, this organization, known as ‘Solidarity’, was to represent ‘the first stage of the United States of the West.’”20.

Now we have the French emergency legislation dating from 1955 as a reaction to the Paris riots.

Concerning the 1958 situation I found a part in the 1989 softcover bookedition from 1989 of "The Messianic Legacy" by Baigent, Leigh, Lincoln(who more famous for the book Holy Blood, Holy Grail, which highly influenced "the daVinci-code"),: On the „Comités de Salut public (Committees of Public Safety)”:

"...Thus, the Committees in Algeria began to press insistently for De Gaulle to assume power in France, if necessary by means of a military coup. They received support from a number of high-ranking military men, including Marshal Alphonse Juin, who is alleged to have been an important member of the Prieuré de Sion. They also received support from a coalescing pro-Gaullist movement in France, the Social Republican Party, whose leaders included Michel Debré- who became De Gaulle's Minister of Justice and, shortly after, between 1959 and 1962, Prime Minister of France. Another important pro-Gaullist figure was Georges Bidault, a former Resistance hero. Between 1945 and 1954,
Bidault had worked closely with Robert Schuman-Professor Louis Le Fur's old friend-in drawing up the blueprints for the EEC...
By (1958) 23 May, reports had begun to surface of
Committees of Public Safety already being established in mainland France. On 24 May, a Committee assumed power in Corsica, while Algerian broadcasters urged France and her people to `choose between the star of Moscow and the Cross of Lorraine"...”On 29 May, every Committee of Public Safety in Paris was mobilised and thousands of supporters poured on to the streets....“21

”When we first met
M.Plantard in 1979, he told us that Charles de Gaulle had personally requested him to direct the French Committees of Public Safety "and, when their task of installing the General in power had been completed, "to preside over" their dissolution"
"...Under the authority of Marshal Alphonse Juin, the seat of the
Secretariat-General of the Committees of Public Safety in metropolitan France was at Aulnay-sous-Bois [author: Paris suburb so close nearby where the riots 2005 started(sic!)]. This Committee was directed by Michel Debré, Pierre Plantard known as Way, and André Malraux.' "22

And just compare with the already mentioned Paragraph 12 from the WEU document: REC 666:
”12 Support proposals for the "
WEU Secretary-General and CFSP High Representative to preside over the PSC and civilian crisis-management machinery" and give him powers to convene the Council of the European Union in the event of an emergency;".

This civil unrest created a pretext for the implementation of authoritarian measures and considerable restrictions on personal liberties. The French riots painted a French president without power: „
Wounded Chirac ‘losing grip’ of riot-hit France. France yesterday ordered a ban on public meetings likely to provoke disturbances as thousands of police were deployed on the streets of Paris to stop youths turning the tourist centre into a battlefield. The initiative came as speculation mounted over a severely discredited Jacques Chirac’s ability to endure the last 17 months of his presidential term...He has said virtually nothing about it, heightening perceptions of him as a politically irrelevant figure....The 72-year-old head of state has been off balance ever since voters defied him by rejecting the European Union constitution in May.:scared Even his lieutenants in the centre-right governing team seemed to be putting the boot in. “Chirac looks stunned, almost overtaken by events,” Jean-Louis Debré, president of the national assembly, was quoted as saying”.23

„Upon closer examination, the dialectic of race merely camouflages a broader Hegelian manipulation. Marginalized and deprived of any substantial political capital, many ethnic and racial groups are predisposed to exploitation by socialist revolutionary movements. Race war invariably becomes class war and class war invariably results in some form of dictatorship. Whether the resulting dictatorship ostensibly belongs to the proletariat or bourgeoisie, absolute primacy is always held by a hidden oligarchy.“24

The dialectic of race merely disguises a larger Hegelian dialectic: communism against fascism. Ayn Rand probably provides the most eloquent summation of this dialectic: „It is obvious what the fraudulent issue of fascism versus communism accomplishes: it sets up, as opposites, two variants of the same political system... it switches the choice of "Freedom or dictatorship?" into "Which kind of dictatorship?"--thus establishing dictatorship as an inevitable fact and offering only a choice of rulers. The choice--according to the proponents of the fraud - is: a dictatorship of the rich (fascism) or a dictatorship of the poor (communism). “25

6. Results and Consequences

Now after the French and Dutch voters have rejected the EU's new Constitution, the EU heads seem facing a crisis. To govern the expanded EU and continue being a global player, the EU leaders feel they really need their new Constitution in force. Not to forget, the Constitution sets a headline goal of 2010 for all Solana's civilian and military peace-keeping/peace-making capabilities to be deployable. These broad-ranging assets include 13 battle groups, heavy lift aircraft, aircraft carrier, satellite communications and much more. Now without constitution all this is threatened. Or, not?

When we taka a look at the WEU document called "The way ahead for the European Security and Defence Policy and its democratic scrutiny – reply to the annual report of the Council by the assembly of the WEU” (Document C/1915, November 8, 2005), it turns out that all of the elements of the new EU Constitution that have to do with the EU's Foreign and Security Policy goals -- including their new, super Foreign Minister and his global diplomatic service -- can be legally done within the framework of the WEU. In other words, as long as the WEU is around, the EU does not need their new Constitution to reach their goals.

High Representative Javier Solana says: „In the past 10 years, there is much that we have achieved. We are working together across the full spectrum of government responsibilities: economy, security, governance and more.“26

Internationalists don't talk so much anymore about creating a world government. They talk about a thing called "world governance." The idea is, instead of establishing a global federalization of some kind, they want to link existing governments, along with all the private sectors, into a new global structure. In other words, they want to talk everybody into going along with their global agenda willingly. Terminated through its international engagement. So does the European identity of the the European nations. European nations become more and more depending from Brussels. European coutries concentrate more intergration. Europe orientates itself shifts more and more towards „security“ and combines more and more civil and military units, added by subtile but intensive pressure which is put onto resisting nations. this phenomen is not just typical for Central Europa, it can be said on a global scale.

My thesis is: the transformation is a directed endevaour. This “transformation” is to be accomplished by a “mission” strategy of doing “whatever it takes” to launch political, social, and cultural reforms on a global scale. A philosophy of “the end justifies the means” has been embraced to accomplish these colossal goals. Extremely sophisticated psycho-social marketing techniques are employed to facilitate this “transformation.” State-of-the-art statistical measurement and assessment methods evaluate this “transformation,” judging “effectiveness” by pre-set criteria. National governments sign multilateral treaties which surrender their political and legal souvereignity. National governments adopt more policies of „regionalism“ and „multiculturalism“, and other policies which will eventually eleminate national borders, culture, and identity and create global citizens. National governments will wind back their natinal armed forces to levels sufficient only to subdue their own people and participate in „global peac-keeping“ activities as requiered by EU and UN. Nations are corporate persons in a „postmodern surrounding” and to be transformed through „discipling“.27 Or to say it with Solanas words: “A secure Europe in a better world“.

As shown “transformation” is substantial and deep, intent on re-forging the very foundations of, western civilization, and ultimately the governance of the entire earth. While lip service is being paid to the traditional definitions you read about above, in reality the word “transformation” now indicates a societal, cultural and global revolution.
