(Robert David Steele) The Americans Rigged Our Election, Bribed Our Government, Stole Our Gold, Killed Our Men, Raped Our Women, and Poisoned our Air, Water, and Earth – and You Want to Blame Something on the Russians?

by Robert David Steele, March 10th, 2018

The Russians did not “hack” the US presidential election. Those are lies concocted by John Brennan. [1] What a few Russians did indeed do was muddle around inside of the Zionist social media system known as #GoogleGestapo, [2] much to the amusement of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) – Eric Schmidt’s “trusted flagger” that censors both the Alt-Right and Alt-Left while protecting Fake News sources promulgating the Deep State and Zionist narrative. [3] The Russians were such a fumbling lot that I told Andrey Kortunov, Director General of the Russian International Affairs Council (RIAC) that if I were they, I would be more worried about being shot for embarrassing the Russian Federation, than being indicted in the US for crimes that are at best a misdemeanor – especially when compared to the real hacking of the US election by Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) – stealing thirteen primaries from Bernie Sanders with electronic ballot fraud [4] – and #GoogleGestapo – from Google manipulation of search results and polls, [5] to Facebook and Twitter suppressing anti-Clinton and anti-Podesta posts while also blocking pro-Trump engagement, to MeetUp digitally assassinating many conservative groups.

Never mind 2016. It’s over and President Donald Trump is the legitimately albeit accidentally elected President of the United States of America (USA). [6] Although the Fake News mainstream media controlled by the Deep State is not reporting any of this yet, Donald Trump has on the one hand made peace in Korea, [7] assuring their unification in partnership with the Chinese; announced a planned US exit from Syria over the opposition of the military-industrial complex; [8] and negotiated with China and Russia a financial system re-boot that will start on 26 March 2018. [9] Soon he will be overseeing a nation-wide purge of traitors, elite pedophiles, and white collar criminals with over 9,000 sealed indictments [10] now in hand and both an executive order on seizing the assets of human traffickers [11] and a military justice system revamped to handle those indictments that merit a military tribunal. [12] What’s not to like?

What we should be discussing, as General Secretary Xi Jingping of China, President Vladimir Putin of Russia, and perhaps even President Donald Trump of America all position themselves to remain in leadership positions for the next twenty years, is the history of US interference in the elections of other countries – and not just interference in elections, but the deep bribery of government officials; the theft of gold and other valuables; [13] the murders of millions of men, women, and children; the raping of women (and children); [14] and the poisoning of the air, water, and earth of countries where one of four forms of invasion have taken place:

1. Election manipulation and regime change including assassination as implemented by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and selected others funded by the US taxpayer;

2.Outright invasion of the US military, generally on the basis of many lies told to the public;

3. Financial subversion led by Wall Street and the City of London using the local Central Bank;

4. Corporate predation, often including paramilitary force, to loot national natural resources while also poisoning the air, water, and earth.

Here is the definitive “master list” of countries that have been subject to the first two forms of intervention by the USA since World War II (WWII) but not counting “minor” election interference including poll and ballot rigging, bribes, and media misinformation campaigns. All countries without exception, and particularly Russia with the “Gold War” from 1998 to 2001, [15] and including the USA itself, have been subject to the second two forms of subversion. Asterisks indicate “success.” [16]

Caribbean and Central America (various)

Germany (World War I)

Election Manipulation and Regime Change Including Assassination

The count varies – some of the interventions are still secret – but by one account, that of the Los Angeles Times, the US has attempted to influence presidential elections in other countries as many as eighty-one (81) times between 1946-2000. [18] Add attempts since 2000, and we are probably looking at just over one hundred direct, well-funded, and generally very cavalier and always unjustified interventions, every one of them in violation of international law and national sovereignty. Sadly, direct assassination is included in this category. Below are the publicly known planned (some successful) assassinations – there are many others including those done by North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) GLADIO false flag terrorists funded by the CIA, [19] the combined CIA and Joint Special Operations Group (JSOG) assassinations picking up where we left off with the Phoenix program in Vietnam, [20] CIA drones (with a 98% collateral damage death rate), and surrogates including Private Military Corporations (PMC).

I reserve a special place in hell for those who are responsible for assassinating thousands of people with drones, ninety-eight percent (98%) of them documented to be innocent women, children, and old men, joining rendition and torture and secret prisons around the world as two of CIA’s most heinous crimes against humanity. [22]

Outright Military Invasion

Outright military invasions are listed above. What I want to focus on here is the fact – the absolute fact – that most (not all) invasions – and wars – the US has ever engaged in – have generally been based on lies. “Yellow journalism” is the precursor term to “fake news.” Yellow journalism refers to journalism that systematically lies to the public in order to achieve a specific goal, such as getting the public to support a war based on lies. It is ironic that the Pulitizer Prize for “great” journalism is named after the man who pioneered yellow journalism – the greatest liar on the planet in his time. [23]

War is not just a racket, as General Smedley Butler, USMC put it, [24] it is also a crime against humanity and it is a lie, as David Swanson has articulated in multiple works. [25]

Here are just three examples of wars started by lies.

Vietnam. The Tonkin Gulf attack was completely fabricated. [26] While most argue that “credibility” and the “domino theory” were dominant in our thinking, [27] this is false. We knew Ho Chi Minh was a nationalist and we knew Vietnam hated China as much as it hated the French. The USA deliberately violated the Geneva Accords calling for open elections and supported a murderous Catholic mandarin against the Buddhist majority. The real reason we invaded Viet-Nam was so that we would use up our aging military inventory and have to buy it again. [28]

Afghanistan. Osama Bin Laden had nothing to do with 9/11 and died shortly thereafter – he was replaced by a series of body-doubles, the last one provided by the Pakistani military as a favor to Barack Obama to enable a pre-election “victory.” [29] The real reason we invaded Afghanistan was to re-start opium productions successfully shut down by the Taliban, and essential to the liquidity of Wall Street and the City of London, both desperate for the liquidity that drug money provides. [30]

Iraq. There were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq [31] (nor are there in Syria today). [32] The real reason we invaded Iraq was because Dick Cheney was certain we could take over their oil fields and it was time to again use up the military so we would have to buy it again. We invaded Iraq twice because we did it so well the first time it did not consume enough of our force structure. [33]

The greatest lies about war are two: that the war was “worth it” – wars are profitable only for bankers; and that the war was “in the public interest.” This is almost never true.

Financial Subversion

With the complicity of all governments, the public has been deceived into thinking that democracy exists. Democracy does not exist. Roughly forty governments are outright dictatorships, [34] and the rest are two-party tyrannies that disenfranchise seventy percent of the voters while enabling the Deep State to exercise “pay to play” legislative and executive powers. [35]

The greatest subversion is that of the Central Banks. Central banks are private institutions controlled by the Deep State (Chabad Supremacists, the Vatican, and the Rothschilds), and they are in no way subject to government oversight nor responsive to the public interest. Central banks are a means of legally looting the 99% in favor of the 1%. [36]

By way of illumination, I want to point to the fact, now documented, that the Great Depression in the USA was planned by the banks to accomplish three objectives:

1. To destroy the middle class that was growing as a political force demanding integrity in government.
2. To buy up land and other assets as “depression-level” prices, further concentrating wealth.
3. To deepen banking control of government.

The Great Depression was executed with the full complicity of the President of the USA, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. [37]

In modern times, the sub-prime mortgage bubble leading to the trillion dollar bailouts of the banks; the continued tolerance of banking manipulation of the foreign exchange and interest rates; [38] and the continued allowance of private banks to create their own money, literally inventing billions of dollars in credit for themselves or to loan, suggest that the real enemy of democracy is not Russia, or China, or any power other than banking power as directed by the Deep State. [39]

Corporate Predation

Others, such as John Perkins, have ably documented how banks and corporations subvert foreign countries and bribe and lie their way into the displacement of native villages, the illicit taking of gold mines and other natural resources, and the general subversion of the public interest. [40]

From geo-engineering to agricultural and energy practices that poison the air, water, and earth to the deliberate dumbing down of the mental and emotional capacities of the public to the deliberate embrace of waste on the order of fifty percent, [41] the financial subversion of humanity is almost total.

That stops now. The world is awakening and the days of the Deep State are numbered.

Healing Ourselves and Healing the World

Others have written about “the fourth turning” and the “great awakening.” [42] Both of these are very real. On the one hand, there is a new connectivity among the 99%, a new empathy without borders. On the other hand, there is a resurgence of nationalism and ethnic and cultural pride seeking to stop the homogenization and dilution of all that makes each “tribe” unique and precious to the necessary diversity that is a signal aspect of humanity in all its forms. [43]

A revolution is underway. It is a non-violent open source revolution. [44] It is a revolution in the minds, hearts, and souls of every human being on the planet. Truth & Reconciliation plays a central role in this revolution, for it is more important to educate and unite the many than it is to hang or defeat the few.

Central to this revolution is an emerging understanding that it is possible to achieve a prosperous world at peace, a world that works for all, by eliminating central banking and demanding complete transparency in governance including economic governance at the corporate level.

Open Source Everything Engineering (OSEE) can extend prosperity to the five billion poor at ten percent of the cost of the failed Western economic paradigm that embraces waste, externalizes true costs to future generations, and focuses on extracting wealth from the public in favor of the banks, on the order of 90% profit versus 10% actual cost of goods. [45]

ENOUGH!

The Deep State is now clearly seen as the Naked Emperor.

Notes

[1] No fewer than twenty-nine (29) authoritative sources – including then President Barack Obama – testified that the Russians did not hack the election (they snooped and they did overt media operations – they did not “hack” anything). I list these specific sources with a link for each in Update 18 at Robert Steele, “US IC Allegations Against Russians Are Crap — Our Own Traitors, Not the Russians, Are the Real Enemy, Fake Evidence & Fake News – UPDATE 22,” Phi Beta Iota Public Intelligence Blog, 30 December 2016. Subsequently – it quickly became a best-seller at Amazon – I published a detailed critique of the CIA “report” purporting to show that the Russians hacked the election, a report that included, on page A-13, a statement to the effect that their judgments were not based on evidence. Consisting largely of whining about the overt media operations of Russia Today, the report stands as a testimonial to the mediocrity and lack of integrity of CIA at the management level. See Robert Steele, The Soft Coup Collapses – Blackmail Revealed – What Next?: CIA was bluffing, produced no evidence – Russians did not “hack” the election. Is this the beginning of the end of the Deep State in the USA? Can Trump clean house & wage peace? (Trump Revolution Book 6) (Earth Intelligence Network, 2017). This is also available free online.

[2] I coined the hashtag that is now in wide use. There are two seminal references: Robert Steele, “How The Deep State Controls Social Media and Digitally Assassinates Critics: #GoogleGestapo – Censorship & Crowd-Stalking Made Easy,” American Herald Tribune, November 7, 2017; and Robert Steele, “#GoogleGestapo: Censorship & Surveillance (Including Amazon, Facebook, Google, MeetUp, Twitter, YouTube) – UPDATE 4,” Phi beta Iota Public Intelligence Blog, 24 October 2017 updated 5 March 2018.

[3] The ADL pioneered the use of false reporting by trolls in the 1990’s to digitally assassinate anyone offering critical commentary on Zionist subversion in America and elsewhere such as the United Kingdom. They use troll armies to label such individuals as “haters” or “spammers” or in the case of websites, as purveyors of pornographic lies. Never mind that this is a violation of free speech rights, a felony (crowd-stalking), and totally false. Here are just three articles on how “trusted flaggers” are executing a Zionist censorship campaign across the USA.

[13] Too few know that the CIA was radically made worse by the discovery in the Philippines of hundreds of billions of dollars of gold and other valuables buried in caves by the Japanese during their pillaging of the Southeast Asian countries during WWII. This captured treasure became the Black Lily Fund administered by the Secretary of the Treasury, and was used to fund the restoration of fascism in Germany, Italy, Japan, as well as the many covert invasions, bribed, and regime change operations undertaken by CIA – all acts of war – in the decades following WWI.

[14] A new Judicial Commission of Inquiry into Human Trafficking and Child Sex Abuse now seeks to document – as no one else has done — the totality of the child abuse spectrum from slavery to sex to murder to body parts harvesting. Its intent is to document how many children actually go missing each year (with eight million a year as a speculative assumption); how long they live once ingested into the child abuse network of networks (two years is the preliminary assumption); what precisely happens to children; and who precisely is responsible for protecting this long-running genocide against our most vulnerable children. These is no question but that elements of the US military, CIA, and contractors to the US military and CIA have been heavily engaged in child trafficking. Not yet clear is whether the trafficking in children is done with institutional authority, or only by rogue elements leveraging their control of institutional assets such as overseas bases and official aircraft that are not searched by US immigration authorities.

[25] Next to William Blum, David Swanson is the person that impressed me most in the peace through truth space. Cf.

[27] Cf. Michael Lind, “Why we went to war in Vietnam,” The American Legion, 20 December 2012. Mr. Lind avoids discussing the CIA’s complicity in the assassination of Ngo Ding Diem, and the CIA’s role in planting bombs across Buddhist and Catholic targets to ferment a civil war in South Vietnam intended to avoid the electoral solution called for in the Geneva Accords.

[28] This is my personal conclusion based on reading over 300 books on intelligence and perhaps 700 books on defense strategy, operations, and specific campaigns. I do believe my reading included at least one book that made this case but I cannot recollect the specific title. All of my reviews are free online.

[29] Former Assistant Secretary of State Steve Pieczenik and I are among the most outspoken with respect to multiple Bin Ladens. When I read the reports on the “final” Bin Laden I knew instantly he was fake and this was subsequently confirmed by a Pakistani military officer who stated that the “patsy” was provided by the Pakistani military as a “gift” to Leon Panetta and Barack Obama. US military died, not only in the raid, but after the raid in what appeared to be a murderous cover-up. For a detailed perspective on this murderous fraud for which then Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta and then Director of the CIA John Brennan should be sent to jail for life, see “Bin Laden Show: Entries 00-99,” Phi Beta Iota Public Intelligence Blog, 15 January 2012 updated 2 April 2016.

[33] In my direct personal experience augmented by reading, we succeeded brilliantly and General Jay Garner, sent in to manage the transition, had us prepared to leave within 90 days. This was not what Dick Cheney wanted, so he sent in Paul Bremer whose covert mission was to turn Iraq into chaos requiring a long-term occupation. His first move was brilliant: disbanding the Iraqi Army and putting hundreds of thousands of officers into immediate destitution.
