By the turn  of the century, the different ethnic networks became so intertwined  that, for generic purposes, the name &#8220;organized crime&#8221; applies to all of  them.<\/em><br \/>\n<em> The implantation of the ethnic secret societies into the United States  is a complex story, but may be centered accurately in a few case  histories. One is the way that the family of Sam Bronfman \u00e2\u20ac\u201d the man who  shipped enough liquor to the United States to double the size of Lake  Eric, in the testimony of Lucky Luciano \u00e2\u20ac\u201d got to North America.  Bronfman&#8217;s story begins, in fact, in Romania, where the Order of Zion  secret organization achieved its first major victory, a coup d&#8217;etat that  brought King Charles of Romania to the throne in 1887.\u00c2\u00a0 In the years  following the Civil War, the Order of Zion merged with the much alder  Cult of Mizraem, a centuries-old covert organization that dated back to  the days of Genoese and Hapsburg intrigue and assassination.<\/em><br \/>\n<em> (21) From the British side. Sir Moses Montefiore. and on the Romanian  front itself, American Consul Benjamin Peixotto, aided the local secret  society in installing a new monarch. (22)\u00c2\u00a0 Peixotto held a leadership  position in the American B&#8217;nai B&#8217;rith and was a member of the Order of Zion.\u00c2\u00a0 The Elders of Zion Romania  became, in consequence, a nesting place for the most lurid form of  Central European covert operations until the Second World War.\u00c2\u00a0 The  character of the political machine the Order of Zion installed in that  country is perhaps best illustrated by the strong support Order of Zion  elements gave to the Romanian Green Shirt Nazis, who seized power in  Hitler&#8217;s wake during the 1930s. (23) Romanian Jews show up prominently in American  organized crime, as well as in the terrorist activities of the Israeli  secret service, the Mossad.<\/em><br \/>\n<em> The Order of Zion was simply the Jewish division of the Most Venerable  Order of St. John of Jerusalem, the London-centered chivalric order and  secret society, whose members swear \u00e2\u20ac\u201d and act on \u00e2\u20ac\u201d a blood oath.\u00c2\u00a0 A  secret meeting in Paris in 1884 yielded the famous minutes of the Order, published under the title, Protocols of  the Eiders of Zion. The minutes were intercepted and published by the  Russian counterintelligence service, the Okhrana.\u00c2\u00a0 (24) Probably, the  decision to publish the captured minutes involved retaliation against  the Order of Zion&#8217;s role in fomenting a sweeping destabilization against  the government of Russian Prime Minister Count Witte, whose government  fell during the so-called 1905 Revolution. Witte had sought an alliance  with Germany and France against Britain on a program that included the  industrial development of Russia. <strong>The question of the authenticity of the Protocols has been a matter of fierce, even  hysterical dispute. The question may be settled with dispatch by a  textual comparison between the oaths of the Order of Zion printed in the  Protocols, and the blood-curdling oaths sworn by initiates into the  fourth Grade of the Knights of Columbus of Mexico, which maintains close  ties to the Jesuits and to the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, which  reads in part as follows<\/strong><\/em><strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>(25) 1. ,, in the presence of all-powerful God, the blessed Virgin Mary, the  blessed St. John the Baptist . . . by the belly of the Virgin Mary, the  womb of God and staff ox Jesus Christ, I declare and swear that his holiness the Pope is vice  regent of Christ and sole and true head of the universal Catholic Church  on earth, and in virtue of the keys to do and undo given to your holiness by my savior Jesus Christ,  (you) have the power to depose kings and heretics, princes, states,  communities and governments and dismiss them from office without risk. . . .

Amen. (26)<\/p>\n<p><em>Romania&#8217;s Order of Zion stronghold produced, among other criminal  elements, one Yechicl Bronfman, who emigrated to Canada in 1889- Hie  circumstances of Bronfman&#8217;s emigration are noteworthy. His passage was  paid by the de Hirsch family fund for settlements in Canada \u00e2\u20ac\u201d which conferred benefits with strings  attached. De Hirsch political screening of new immigrants was so precise  that a significant number of new<\/em><br \/>\n<em> arrivals were sent back without funds, for unreliability. (27), The important features of the arrival of the Italian &#8220;Mafia&#8221; in the  United States are inseparable from the story of the Order of Zion.  Mazzini, the sponsor of the Mafia in Italy, reported directly to the  most prominent of Britain&#8217;s Hofjvden. Prime Minister<\/em><br \/>\n<em> Benjamin Disraeli, and received funding from the leading British  Hofjvden bankers, Rothschild and Montcfiore. (2$)<\/em><br \/>\n<em> Correspondingly, when Mazzini sent his lieutenants into the United  States, the veterans of the &#8220;Young Italy&#8221; movement moved into channels  already carved out by the likes of ex- General Pike and B&#8217;nai B&#8217;rith.  The combination of Hofjuden controlled crime networks and the Mafia  provided the framework for organized crime on a big-business scale.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>And this keeps popping up again and again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/centurean2.wordpress.com\/2011\/05\/29\/the-jewish-conspiracy-is-british-imperialism-3\/\">Although  the Larouche historians do not say so, it appears that many members of  this oligarchy were Jews. Cecil Roth writes: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The trade of Venice was  overwhelmingly concentrated in the hands of the Jews, the wealthiest of  the mercantile class.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (The History of the Jews in Venice, 1930)<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/centurean2.wordpress.com\/2011\/05\/29\/the-jewish-conspiracy-is-british-imperialism-3\/\"><br \/>\nAs William Guy Carr points out in Pawns in the Game, both Oliver  Cromwell and William of Orange were funded by Jewish bankers. The  English Revolution (1649) was the first in a series of revolutions  designed to give them world hegemony. The establishment of the Bank of  England by William in 1694 was the next crucial step. Behind the facade,  England has been a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Jewish\u00e2\u20ac\u009d state for over 300 years.

Followers of Lyndon  LaRouche, a  political activist, underwent a process he called  \u00e2\u20ac\u0153ego-stripping\u00e2\u20ac\u009d that  involved emotional abuse. LaRouche wanted to make  his subjects feel  like there was nowhere safe for them except in his  movement. People  administering ego-stripping insulted and belittled  their colleagues,  friends, and partners on every topic they could think  of. LaRouche  believed, at one point, that a member of his movement had  been  implanted with the idea to assassinate him. He recorded his   ego-stripping session with the man. The recordings of the sessions   indicate that the subjects were deprived of food and receiving electric   shocks, adding physical pain to the sense of isolation and   worthlessness. Not only did the man confess, but large segments of   Larouche\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s followers claimed that they had been brainwashed by the CIA  or the East German secret police and programmed to kill. None of those  claims were substantiated by psychologists.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Anyway, Erin B&#8217;s piece is funny, and informative.\u00c2\u00a0 I recommend it.\u00c2\u00a0 Since the cult has the reaction it gave to it, I guess you can up my recommendation to a &#8220;Highly Recommended&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><cite><\/cite> More youtube commentings:\u00c2\u00a0 jasonjasonjason1 says: Wow! Good thing you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re monitoring  comments or otherwise sane people  might say something true and your  cult members might get savvy! Nice  thinking Jim Jones.<br \/>\nLaroucheisright says: Jason: can you post the phone number  where a person could get on Libeling LaRouche for 15$ per hour.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rickpotvin.com\/2011\/05\/my-personal-public-association-with.html\">The  news cannot be understood as it should be without the Classical   Humanist frame of reference that Larouche has created over the past 40   years. And our personal lives are not divorced from the news as   correctly interpreted, although most people try to live their private   lives as if they can&#8217;t do anything about the big picture&#8211; as if   understanding reality has no value. That&#8217;s bad citizenship and   multiplied across a population, crashes that civilization. The first   step in civilized behavior is to uphold the best civilized awareness of   the big picture<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.osborneink.com\/2011\/05\/the-unnatural-history-of-nontroversy.html\">But  that doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t stop his believers, who  form an indescribably strange  cult. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hard to overstate the insanity  required to belong: first,  you have to believe in visibly insane  things, for instance that Lyndon  LaRouche was only convicted of tax  evasion and wire fraud because  Oliver North brainwashed the judge, jury, and court reporters.<br \/>\nSecond, because the traditional  political divide entirely disappears  with LaRouche. He began on the  extreme left, but more out of vogue than  anything else; his rhetoric has  always been characterized by loopy  authoritarianism. The Democratic  Party has forever refused to have  anything to do with him, and he has  bent further to the right with each  passing year as he seeks the new  \u00e2\u20ac\u0153libertarian\u00e2\u20ac\u009d identifier<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/american-lycurgus.blogspot.com\/2011\/05\/on-jeremiah-duggan.html\">European  on Jeremiah Duggan<\/a>.<cite><\/cite><\/p>\n<p><strong>STORY NUMBER FOUR: WIKIPEDIA?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Larouche Wikipedia Team would like to change the line about &#8220;moving to the far right&#8221; with &#8220;sough alliances with&#8221; etc etc &#8212; including &#8220;The Reagan Administration&#8221;.\u00c2\u00a0 The comedy comes in the form of the Larouche Wikipedia Team&#8217;s suggestion that a consensus was made based on a 2 to 1 &#8212; which is a 66.6666 percent &#8212; opinion.\u00c2\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal\/Cases\/2011-05-28\/LaRouche_movement\">All matters up for some mediation<\/a>, and we will see <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Talk:LaRouche_movement#Intro\">this work out somehow or other<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Frankly, this new intro is something of a travesty.\u00c2\u00a0 I don&#8217;t know how you can say that their new opinion expressing support for the Protocls of the Elders of Zion does not represent a move to the &#8220;far right&#8221;.\u00c2\u00a0 But we are moved into some of that typical &#8220;right and left are false dichotemy&#8221; arguments being made (by non-Larouche wikipedians &#8212; to a certain point a better frame, but limiting itself.\u00c2\u00a0 &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/seasonoftheredwolf.wordpress.com\/2011\/05\/26\/sf-writer-nick-mamatas-and-his-ilks-obliviousness-to-the-obvious-the-unintentional-comedic-irony-of-mamatass-fascists-for-che-article-part-2\/\">Unintentional Comedic Irony of Mamatass Fascists for Che<\/a>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the Wikipedia Review on the matters &#8211;take it away HK:<a href=\"http:\/\/wikipediareview.com\/index.php?showtopic=33751\"> However,  if Wikipedia is ever going to become something like an  encyclopedia,  instead of &#8220;the biggest and most prolific defamation  machine that the  world has ever known,&#8221; something must be done to check  the unrestricted  use of news media as sources, especially for BLPs<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 We also see some conspiracy in action at that link.<\/p>\n<p>Hm.\u00c2\u00a0 I don&#8217;t know the answer to this question:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/thingumbobesquire.blogspot.com\/2011\/05\/angels-of-retrodictive-functional-time.html\">With  what sort of outre poetic sentiment may we not then agree with   LaRouche that time is not mere sequential happenstance but a function by   which we enrich retrodictively the contributions of humanity&#8217;s better   angels?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>STORY NUMBER FIVE<\/strong>:\u00c2\u00a0<strong> ROUND UP OF EVENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some activists go to a town hall with Congressman John Larson (D,1, CT).\u00c2\u00a0 While the Larouche org will react by penning something like this:\u00c2\u00a0 <em>Watch Diane Sare put New Jersey Governor Chris  Christie to shame as  she intervenes with the LaRouche program at a  public meeting held by the  governor on Thursday,<\/em> the Republican activists have this going for them:<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/radioviceonline.com\/larson-gets-more-than-expected-at-mediscare-town-hall-meeting\/\">We rocked him for two hours.\u00c2\u00a0 He came in very partisan, placing blame  for all things wrong with the economy at the feet of GWB and the  Republicans.\u00c2\u00a0 Would not recognize the unsustainability of Medicare.\u00c2\u00a0  Plenty of class warfare against the rich \u00e2\u20ac\u201c disgusting.\u00c2\u00a0 We interrupted  him, corrected him and motivated plenty of seniors to chime in early.\u00c2\u00a0  His straight-faced solution for Medicare is eliminate fraud\/waste,  contain costs, and go back to the Clinton tax rates.\u00c2\u00a0 Most of the  questions were critical.\u00c2\u00a0 There were even a group of LaRouche people  giving him hell about the bailouts.\u00c2\u00a0 He didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t expect it going in, but  he got an earful.\u00c2\u00a0 He can be nasty, we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve seen it before \u00e2\u20ac\u201c he raises his  voice dictatorial style \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Mussolini would be proud \u00e2\u20ac\u201c ha!\u00c2\u00a0 Hopefully  he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll re-tool for the next one cause from his team\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s perspective this  had to be a disaster.\u00c2\u00a0 We took video and that should circulate over the  weekend<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This particular group of Republican activists need to get out of bed with Larouche right now.
