1913-1914: Destroying Democracy in Mexico and the Federal Reserve Scam

1913: UNITED STATES. As the robber barons get richer and richer, nearly half the working population of the U.S. works long hours in apalling conditions, going home to filthy slums at night. A massive wave of strikes begins and American socialists demand the overthrow of capitalism. In Ohio, company guards gun down workers. Members of the Industrial Workers of the World are lynched and others jailed.

1913: MEXICO. The U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, Henry Lane Wilson, a corporate lawyer and close associate of the Rockefellers and Guggenheims, orchestrates a vitriolic propaganda campaign and the destabilization, overthrow and murder of the first democratically-elected President of Mexico, Francisco Madero.

In the U.S., the propaganda campaign against Madero is led by racist warmonger, yellow media baron and Nazi propagandist-to-be William Randolph Hearst, who had acquired seven million acres of land stolen from murdered Mexican peasants thanks to the U.S.-supported Diaz dictatorship. Under Madero, the seven million acres "owned" by Hearst would have eventually been returned to its rightful owners. In Mexico, the hate campaign is led by the fabulously named newspaper, El Imparcial, owned by, you only have one guess.....the Rockefellers.

Madero had won the Mexican Revolution, deposing the U.S. and British-supported dictator, Porfirio Diaz. Diaz had ruled brutally for thirty years and sold the country out to foreign interests, primarily American and British, while being allowed to steal a fortune for himself, his relatives and his cronies. His regime committed genocide on a grand scale, enslaved millions and stole hundreds of millions of acres of land from the native people, giving rise to the Revolution.

Francisco Madero won the first democratic election in Mexican history after he ousted Diaz. Madero was, from the point of view of the U.S. ruling class, that most dangerous of all God's creatures, a believer in genuine democracy who implemented a wide range of democratic reforms including true freedom of speech, true freedom of the press and genuine democratic elections.

Aside from taking the radical and dangerous step of implementing real democracy within shouting distance of the United States, which might give the huddled masses in the U.S. some naughty ideas, Madero’s greatest crime was imposing a three centavo (one and a half cent) per barrel tax on oil exports from Mexico, largely by Standard Oil (Exxon-Mobil) and the Texas Oil Company (Texaco), which infuriated the billionaire Rockefellers and their clubmates in the U.S. ruling class.

After Madero’s kidnapping, his wife pleads with Ambassador Wilson to spare her husband’s life. Wilson, who is in the midst of a party at the U.S. Embassy celebrating freedom, liberty and demockracy on the birthday of slaveowner, land speculator, mass murderer and ethnic cleanser, George Washington, refuses, exploring the heights of hypocrisy by saying it “would be improper” for him to intervene “in Mexico’s internal affairs.”

After Madero’s cold-blooded murder and the torture and murder of his brother, Gustavo, the installation and recognition of the brutal Huerta dictatorship and its death squads is orchestrated by Ambassador Wilson. Thousands of Mexicans loyal to Madero are slaughtered in the coup which deprives Mexico of the only democratic government it has ever had, plunges the country back into revolution, and leads directly to the wholesale destruction of the country and the deaths of almost two million people, about one eighth of the entire Mexican population.

1913: UNITED STATES. The Pennsylvania House of Representatives records that just under a hundred and fifty children have been inoculated with syphilis in the state, "through the courtesy of the various hospitals". It is further recorded that fifteen children at St. Vincent's House in Philadelphia have had the infective agent for tuberculosis put in their eyes. Several of the children are permanently blinded. No charges are laid.

1913-present: UNITED STATES. That secret meeting but not a conspiracy of bankers and Senator Nelson Aldrich on Jekyll Island in 1910 bears fruit when the so-called U.S. Federal Reserve Board is formed. The first act to establish the Federal Reserve is drafted by international banker Paul Warburg of Kuhn, Loeb and sponsored by Aldrich, maternal grandfather of Nelson and David Rockefeller.

The Aldrich act is voted down but, just before Christmas 1913, when most Congressmen are conveniently absent, the Owens-Glass Bill is quickly passed, establishing the privately owned company which operates under the deceptive name of the Federal Reserve.

A very nice, multi-trillion dollar Hanukkah and Christmas present for the boys in the back room. The bill is duly signed by Woodrow "Making The World Safe for Bankers" Wilson who had agreed to do so prior to his election in return for massive campaign contributions from the boys.

Contrary to a carefully cultivated popular misconception, the “Fed” is not an agency of the U.S. federal government but is a privately owned company owned entirely by major commercial banking interests largely controlled by a few ultra wealthy families, the usual gang of suspects, in fact.

The identities of the shareholders of the company which creates and controls the American money supply is, as is only reasonable, kept secret from the American public. And, just as reasonably, much of the Fed's financial activity is legally exempt from scutiny or audit by the General Accounting Office (GAO). After all, what right do ordinary Americans have to know anything about the private company which issues all U.S. money and, for all practical purposes, controls the U.S. economy.

Some commentators state that the original shareholders of the Federal Reserve company were the Rothschilds' bank in London, the Lazard Brothers' bank of Paris, the Israel Moses Seif Bank of Italy, the Warburg Bank of Hamburg, London and Amsterdam, the Lehman Brothers Bank of New York, the Kuhn Loeb Bank of New York, the Rockefellers’ Chase Bank of New York and the Goldman, Sachs Bank of New York.

Give me control of the economics of a country
and I care not who makes her laws.

Mayer Amsel Rothschild

The Federal Reserve company "creates" all of the U.S. money supply. In the absence of gold or anything else of any value, trillions of dollars are simply invented out of thin air and deemed to exist although they have no more substance, value or real worth than Monopoly money. Printed currency represents only a very small part of the created money. Most of the invented money exists these days only as magnetic impulses on discs in computers, although we all still have to pay hundreds of billions of dollars in interest to the boys in the back room on it.

The imaginary "money" is lent at relatively low rates of interest by the Federal Reserve company to private banks who then lend the recently-invented "money" at higher rates of interest to governments, companies and individuals and they do it not once, not twice, but up to ten times over with the miracle of so-called fractional reserve banking. Yes, Virginia, they lend out the same non-existent money up to ten times over and charge interest every time they do it. And they rake in interest on every dollar of the invented money forever, decade after decade.

The Federal Reserve company kicks back most of the profit IT makes on the scam to the federal government which creates the useful illusion that everything is kosher but that's just smoke and mirrors. The real profit is made at the level of the banks who get the invented money cheap from the Fed and then lend it out to government, business and consumers ten times over. Not one cent of those billions or trillions is kicked back to anyone other than the people who own the banks.

It is a truly miraculous system and very, very profitable. If private individuals do exactly what the private banks of the "Fed" do, it is called counterfeiting.

In addition to making vast fortunes on the invented money, the Federal Reserve gives the boys in the back room almost complete control over the U.S. economy. By increasing or decreasing the money "supply" the boys can inflate or deflate the value of the invented dollars at will. The long term trend is inflation which basically makes the money earned by ordinary Americans ever more worthless.

If the American people
ever allow private banks
to control the issue of their money,
first by inflation
and then by deflation,
the banks and corporations
that will grow up around them
will deprive the people of their property
until their children will wake up homeless
on the continent their fathers conquered.

Fascist slave owner and genocidal mass murderer
but nobody's fool.

1914: UNITED STATES. Two companies of National Guardsmen, their pay underwritten by the Rockefellers who own the Colorado Fuel & Iron Corporation, with hired thugs of the Baldwin Felts Detective Agency launch an attack on a miners' tent colony, where one thousand men, women and children live. The Guardsmen pour machine-gun fire into the tents, then set them on fire. Among the twenty dead are eleven children and two women. None of the murderers or those who hired and paid them is punished.

1914: UNITED STATES. It ain't easy being rich. Billionaire robber baron John D. Rockefeller gets a bit of bad press after the slaughter he paid for in Colorado. He hires propagandist Ivy Lee to spruce up his somewhat tarnished image. Lee comes up with the bright idea of having the murderous old bastard hand out dimes to poor folks lined up at his door.

1914-99: PANAMA. The U.S. illegally annexes and occupies the Panama Canal Zone. The Panama Canal will eventually save the the U.S. and multinational corporations and the U.S. military tens of billions of dollars in fuel and time and earns the U.S. government further billions in transit fees.

The U.S. maintains no less than fourteen military bases in the occupied canal zone, including the world's largest and most notorious terrorist and torture training facility, the sweetly-named School of the Americas. The Panamanian bases are frequently used as staging points for the destabilization and/or invasion of nations throughout Central America and the Caribbean.

The government of Panama is paid a pittance annually in compensation, about $1.4 million by the 1980s. The U.S. finally relinquishes control of the Canal when it no longer has any strategic importance.

1914: UNITED STATES. Democratic President Woodrow Wilson's regime is a virtual board of directors of the oil, land, timber, banking and railroad interests which had secured his nomination and then bought and paid for his election. His closest advisor, many would say his puppet master, is "Colonel" E.M. House, intimately connected with the Texas Oil Company (Texaco). His Secretary of the Treasury is his son-in-law William Gibbs McAdoo, a failed businessman who had been bailed out by the J.P. Morgan interests and who owed old J.P. a favor or two.

Heavily backed by the banking robber barons, Wilson had agreed to sign a a bill creating the privately owned Federal Reserve company in exchange for campaign contributions.

Wilson was known for uttering the ludicrous propaganda slogan, “making the world safe for democracy”. In 1907, in a lecture at Columbia University, Wilson had unintentionally defined in advance what the phrase really means when he said, “Since the manufacturer insists on having the world as a market, the flag of his nation must follow him and the doors of nations which are closed against him must be battered down. Concessions obtained by financiers must be safeguarded by ministers of state even if the sovereignty of unwilling nations be outraged in the process.”

When they heard that, the boys in the back room knew that ole Woodrow was just the kind of presidential material they'd been looking for.

Wilson, portrayed in the standard fantasyland version of American history as a “liberal”, launched at least seven unprovoked and illegal invasions of other nations on behalf of the American ruling class for whom he worked, more than any other president in U.S. history including overt fascists such as Ronald "Bloodbath" Reagan and the Bushes.

The great "liberal" Wilson had appealed to black voters by promising them a "New Freedom". He duly received more black votes than any other Democratic candidate in history. But, one his first acts as President was to order apartheid in work places, rest rooms and lunch rooms throughout the federal government. But, of course an American president's primary function is to lie to the American people and ole Woodrow was pretty damn good at it.

1914-17: MEXICO. Mexico is the world’s third largest oil producer and the port of Tampico on Mexico’s Caribbean coast is the largest oil port in the world. So that the Rockefeller’s Standard Oil and the Texas Oil Company (Texaco) can continue to extract Mexican oil without payment of royalties and, even more importantly, to ensure that the Mexican Revolution fails, the U.S. scripts and stages what is perhaps the most absurd of the countless pretexts it has staged and manufactured over the years to cloak its unprovoked attacks on other nations on behalf of the U.S. ruling class.

A huge fleet of U.S. warships hovers threateningly off the Mexican coast. Sailors from the USS Dolphin, welcomed into the oil port of Tampico on shore leave, illegally enter a restricted area of the port. They are arrested by Mexican security patrols. Mexican officials, mindful of the USS Maine incident in Cuba, no doubt realize that they are being set up, quickly apologize and immediately release the offenders.

Not to be outplayed by mere Mexicans, the American admiral makes the insane demand of a twenty one gun salute to the American flag, knowing perfectly well that national pride will not allow the Mexicans to submit to such humiliation by the U.S.

After the Mexicans inevitably refuse, the U.S. uses the refusal as the pretext to begin the attack on Mexico it had begun planning four months earlier. U.S. battleships launch a full-scale bombardment, not of Tampico where the pretext incident had been staged, but of the port city of Veracruz almost two hundred miles away.

The United States achieves the dubious distinction of becoming the first country in the world to conduct terror bombing of a defenseless civilian population from airplanes, using Curtiss biplanes operating from Texas.

Invasion and occupation of Veracruz by U.S. Marines follows. More than four hundred Mexican civilians are murdered by the United States while attempting to repel the invaders with broomsticks, axes and shovels. Many more Mexicans are injured. There are too many corpses for the survivors to bury so they are cremated in the streets with gasoline. Buildings throughout the city of Veracruz are devastated.

Veracruz was very carefully chosen as America's target. While in occupation, the U.S. steals all customs revenue collected in Veracruz, Mexico’s largest commercial port, in order to bring about the downfall of the Huerta dictatorship. Huerta had been installed a year earlier following the murder of democratically-elected President Francisco Madero orchestrated by the U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, Henry Lane Wilson.

Like the murdered Madero, Huerta made the fatal mistake of proposing a tax on oil exported from Mexico by U.S. oil companies, primarily the Rockefellers' Standard Oil and the Texas Oil Company (Texaco), closely linked to Woodrow Wilson's puppet master, "Colonel" E.M. House.

Installed as dictator of occupied Veracruz is our old friend, mass murderer, crusher of labor strikes and advocate of lynching American citizens for speaking out against war, Frederick Funston, now promoted to the heady rank general for his murderous efforts on behalf of the ruling class.

By supplying U.S. ruling class favorite Venustiano Carranza with the vast quantities of weapons, ammunition, explosives and poison gas which arrive at Veracruz during the illegal occupation, while maintaining an arms embargo against popular revolutionary leaders Emiliano Zapata and Pancho Villa, the United States ensures that Carranza's reactionary forces will prevail and that the Mexican Revolution will fail.

As a result, the land and wealth of Mexico remain in the hands of a small number of wealthy white families and of the foreign business interests which had stolen Mexican land and resources with the connivance of the U.S.-supported Diaz dictatorship. Mexico will remain, throughout the twentieth century, a classic U.S.-compliant demockracy, in reality a single party dictatorship of the ruling familes, usually little more than a puppet of the U.S.

At least one U.S. Marine refuses the wear the Medal of Honor (sic) he is awarded for the slaughter of innocent civilians at Veracruz. The leader of the illegal invasion, U.S. Marine Corps Major-General Smedley Butler, later expresses his regret for his actions at Veracruz and in many other parts of the world as a hit man for U.S. corporate, banking and oil interests.

In the American mass media, the policy of the Wilson regime which led to the murderous attacks on Mexico and six other countries and to the deaths of millions on behalf of the U.S. ruling class is blithely referred to as “liberal interventionism”.

1914-34: HAITI. The U.S. invades Haiti six times during 1914 and 1915 in order to seize revenue from Haitian customs houses on behalf of U.S. banking interests, primarily the National City Bank of New York. Each time, “domestic unrest” is used as the pretext for the illegal U.S. invasions. When the newly-elected president of Haiti refuses to hand over Haiti’s railroads and banks to the New York bankers, U.S. Marines invade once more, break into the central bank in Port au Prince and steal $500,000.

The invading Marines remain in illegal occupation of Haiti, viciously suppressing ongoing resistance, slaughtering thousands, and running the country as a virtual colony until 1934. Among the duties of the freedom-loving Marines is the enslavement of hundreds of thousands of black Haitians who are forced to build roads and railways to carry stolen Haitian resources to waiting U.S. ships.

The U.S. seizes Haiti’s gold deposits, re-writes the country’s constitution to allow foreign (read "American") corporate ownership of land and property and then forces their implementation, disbands the Haitian army and replaces it with a U.S.-trained and indoctrinated “police” force.

In U.S. propaganda, the illegal invasions and occupation of Haiti, the murder and enslavement of its people and the theft of its gold reserves and resources on behalf of the New York bankers was simply the act of an always benevolent United States “maintaining order during a period of chronic and threatened insurrection”.

1914: DOMINICAN REPUBLIC. In order to force the people of the Dominican Republic to repay cash given to prior U.S. puppet dictators, American naval vessels shell the Dominican capital of Santo Domingo murdering an unknown number of Dominicans.

1914-1917: WORLD WAR I. Entire countries are being laid waste, millions are being killed and millions more are being wounded, crippled for life, starved and emotionally damaged, but the members of the American ruling class, sitting in their comfy chairs safely on the sidelines, just get richer and richer and richer.

The merchants of death, as they will be called in later Senate hearings, finance the war and sell enormous quantities of munitions, vastly increasing their already enormous fortunes.

In the classic fashion of the ruling class, they profit from both sides of the war. The more death and destruction they can facilitate, the more money they make. J.P. Morgan finances both the Allies and Germany to maximize his profits from death and destruction. Morgan's Guaranty Trust will be singled out by a post-war U.S. Senate committee as being a major financier of the German war effort.

Among the greatest beneficiaries of the mayhem are the Morgans, the Duponts and the Carnegies. Thanks to war sales, Carnegie/United States Steel's business quintupled and its profit margin increased to an astronomical 28%.

1914: UNITED STATES. There's plenty of money being made by the merchants of death from the Great War but they could make even more if the U.S. itself becomes a combatant nation. More importantly, it is vital to the interests of the ruling class that the U.S. be in a position to influence the armistice agreement carving up the world, when the war finally ends.

The ruling class duly founds the so-called National Security League in December 1914. While their hand picked boy Woodrow Wilson is speaking his lines about staying neutral, the League begins a major propaganda campaign to prepare the U.S. masses for America's eventual entry into the war. One its more creative bits of deception and fear mongering is the threat that Germany, if it defeats England, will then invade the U.S. The League describes peace and neutrality advocates as traitors and spies. The NSL advocates universal military training, conscription and the build-up of the U.S. Navy into the largest in the world.

And who is the National Security League really? A list of the people behind the NSL is, in fact, a list of most of America's leading robber barons and merchants of death: Guggenheim, Dupont, Carnegie and Morgan among others. Many of the less familiar names behind the NSL, such as the fabulously-named Henry Clay Prick, are simply minions of the ruling class, in Prick's case, of the Carnegies.

1910-1912: Invasions, Apartheid, Lynchings, Censorship And The Quest For The Master Race But No Conspiracies

1910: NICARAGUA. U.S. Marines invade Nicaragua at Corinto and Bluefields “to protect American interests”.

America's main “interest” in Nicaragua is the overthrow of the successor to President Jose Zelaya who had made the outrageous suggestion that American mining and fruit companies operating in Nicaragua should pay taxes and that they should not be allowed to operate as monopolies.

That's pretty crazy stuff for a sovereign nation to try pulling on fine American corporations, so the U.S. government installs its very own puppet dictator, Adolpho Diaz, who will be sure to do just as he is told.

1910: UNITED STATES. In November, Paul Warburg of the Warburg banking family and four other of the world's major bankers meet at a secret hideaway on Jekyll Island off the Georgia coast to plot the creation of a privately-owned central bank to create and issue all money in the United States, effectively giving them control of the U.S. economy.

The bankers travel incognito, pretending to be duck hunters so no one will who they are or what they are up to. But, as we all know, there are no conspiracies in the U.S. of A., except those carried out by them evil Muslims, so this couldn't be possibly be one.

By amazing coincidence, Senator Nelson Aldrich, of the Rockefeller family, the man who who had headed the Senate committee which recommended the creation of a central bank purportedly to prevent a repeat of the Panic of 1907, is also in attendance at the secret but non-conspiratorial meeting.

1910: UNITED STATES. Baltimore City Council passes an ordinance officially designating racially segregated neighborhoods. Dallas, Texas; Greensboro, North Carolina; Louisville, Kentucky; Norfolk, Virginia; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Richmond, Virginia; Roanoke, Virginia and St. Louis, Missouri soon follow. Ain't nothin' like livin' in a free country, is there?

1910: UNITED STATES. The journal Mother Earth is banned from the U.S. mails after Anthony Comstock, self-appointed censor of all that Americans may see and read, complains to the U.S. Post Office about an essay by Emma Goldman entitled The White Slave Traffic. Goldman stirs the political pot by pointing out that rampant prostitution in America is a direct result of the criminally low wages paid to women, leaving many with no other means of survival.

1910: UNITED STATES. A mob invades a courtroom in Dallas and seizes a black man, Allen Brooks, who had been accused of attacking a white girl. The mob puts a noose around Brooks' neck and hurls him from the window of the courthouse, killing him. His body is then hung from a lamp post and some ten thousand people crowd the streets to view the spectacle.

1910-ongoing: UNITED STATES. The quest for the "master" race begun by corn flake tycoon and anti-masturbation crusader J.H. Kellogg gets going in deadly earnest when the leading lights of the American ruling class decide to improve ze breeding stock and weed out "undesirables" in the world's greatest democracy.

The Carnegie family's always-benevolent Carnegie Institution funds the Station for Experimental Evolution at Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island which will play a leading role in the pseudo-science of eugenics. In 1910, the Harriman family funds the Eugenics Record Office which becomes the leading player in the quest for forced sterilization of "undesirables" and for anti-immigration laws. By 1917, fifteen U.S. states will have eugenics laws providing for the forced sterilization of Americans with epilepsy, the mentally ill and those convicted of crimes.

The racist pseudo-science of eugenics is intended to wipe out all human beings except those who conform to a Nordic, northern European, stereotype. The philosophy is enforced by forced sterilization and segregation laws and marriage restrictions, ultimately enacted in twenty seven states. The program of extermination is largely directed at blacks, native Americans, Hispanics, eastern Europeans, Jews, the poor and the handicapped.

American eugenecists identify "defective" family trees and plan to subject them to lifelong segregation and sterilization programs, destroying the reproductive capability of the "unfit"; those deemed weak, inferior and undesirable by the ruling class.

Ultimately, some sixty thousand Americans are coercively sterilized, thousands of marriages are prevented on racial grounds and thousands of Americans are forcibly segregated into "colonies".

Massive financing by the tax-exempt "philanthropies" of the U.S. ruling class, especially the Carnegie Institution, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Harriman railroad fortune makes eugenics a very serious large-scale threat to human liberty. The robber barons are in league with America's leading scientists from Harvard, Yale and Princeton, who fake and twist data in order to serve the racist aims of the ruling class.

The Cold Springs complex develops and maintains records on millions of ordinary Americans as the movement plots the extinction of families, bloodlines and entire races. Cold Spring Harbor becomes the center of a massive lobbying effort directed at legislators and social service agencies to promote the eugenics agenda. The Harrimans pay local charities, such as the New York Bureau of Industries and Immigration, to seek out Jewish and other immigrants and subject them to deportation, confinement and/or sterilization.

Adolf Hitler studies American eugenics laws and the rationalizations behind them and decides to legitimize his own innate race hatred and anti-Semitism by wrapping it in the pseudo-scientific façade of eugenics. The Rockefeller Foundation helps found and fund the German eugenics program, and even funds the program which ultimately will send Dr. Josef Mengele into Auschwitz which, along with about forty other concentration camps, is a joint venture of the Rockefellers' Standard Oil and the Nazi chemical combine IG Farben.

In the 1920s, Carnegie Institution eugenic scientists develop deep personal and professional relationships with German eugenicists. When Hitler writes Mein Kampf, he frequently quotes American eugenics ideology and displays a thorough understanding of American eugenics and its jargon.

The racial laws which Hitler ultimately introduces in Germany are based directly on American eugenics legislation. The only significant difference in Hitler's quest for a "master" race is to change the American term "Nordic" to "Germanic" or "Aryan." Race science, racial purity and racial dominance as promoted by the American ruling class become the driving force behind Hitler's Nazism.

By 1926, Rockefeller has provided some $410,000, an enormous fortune at the time, to hundreds of German eugenics researchers. In May 1926, Rockefeller gives $250,000 to the German Psychiatric Institute of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute. Among its leading psychiatrists is Ernst Rudin, who becomes director of the Institute and eventually an architect of Hitler's systematic medical repression of "inferior" races.

Another in the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute's complex of eugenics institutions is the Institute for Brain Research. A grant of $317,000 from the Rockefellers allows the Institute to construct a major building and take the lead in German "race biology". The grant is only the first of many to be given to the racist brain institute by the Rockefeller Foundation.

The brain institute, led by Rudin, becomes a prime force in the murderous experimentation and "research" conducted on Jews, Gypsies and other "subhumans" by the Nazis. Beginning in 1940, thousands of Germans taken from old age homes, mental institutions and other facilities are systematically gassed. In all, between 50,000 and 100,000 are killed.

A very special recipient of Rockefeller money is the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Anthropology, Human Heredity and Eugenics in Berlin. For decades, American eugenicists had sought sets of twins in order to advance their research into heredity. With Nazi social control and Rockefeller money, the Institute was able to undertake such research at a previously unprecedented level. At the time of Rockefeller's gift, Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer, revered in American eugenics circles, functioned as head of the Institute for Anthropology, Human Heredity and Eugenics.

With the Rockefeller money, research on twins in the Third Reich exploded, driven by government decrees making all twins in the Reich eligible for the research program. On May 30, 1943, Verschuer's long-time assistant, Josef Mengele, will arrive at Auschwitz and begin taking twins from the railcars arriving at the camp and performing horrific experiments on them, writing up the reports and sending the paperwork back to Verschuer for evaluation.

1911: HONDURAS. U.S. naval detachments invade Honduras to “protect American interests”. The American interests are, in fact, those of American fruit baron, Sam Zemurray, later of the United Fruit (Chiquita Banana) Company. The U.S. engineers the overthrow of the legitimate, liberal government of Miguel Davila and installs Manuel Bonilla, a puppet dictator who is far more accommodating to the requirements of American banana companies.

The coup is orchestrated by an American mercenary, Lee Christmas, who is then installed as commander-in-chief of the Honduran army by the grateful Bonilla dictatorship. One of Bonilla's first acts is to give Zemurray vast tracts of stolen peasants’ land and to waive all taxes for a period of twenty five years.

1911: DOMINICAN REPUBLIC. Following the execution of the U.S. puppet dictator for his collusion with the U.S. and the installation of a new, nationalist government, the United States invades the Dominican Republic and overthrows the new moderate Dominican government and installs yet another U.S. puppet dictatorship which will remain in power for decades.

1911: UNITED STATES. The U.S. Supreme Court orders the American Federation of Labor to cease promoting a boycott against the Bucks Stove and Range Company. Can't be havin' no consumer activism in the land of the free.

1911: CUBA. The U.S. raises the USS Maine which had conveniently "blown up" and sunk in Havana Harbor in 1898, serving as the far-fetched pretext for the long-planned U.S. invasions of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines. The Chinese scrap metal business not yet being in full operation, the hulk of the Maine is towed to deep water and sunk.

1911: UNITED STATES. A hundred and forty seven people, mainly women and young girls, are killed in New York City when a sweatshop occupying the top three floors of a ten storey building, the Triangle Shirtwaist Company, catches fire. Fifty of the deaths occurred when the victims jumped from the burning building to escape the fire.

1911-41: CHINA. U.S. forces invade and occupy parts of China to “protect American interests”. Five thousand U.S. troops and a fleet of forty four vessels are used to force China to open its markets to American corporations, pre-eminent among them the Rockefeller's Standard Oil (Exxon-Mobil).

1912: HONDURAS. U.S. troops invade Honduras to “protect American interests”.

1912: PANAMA. Fully armed U.S. troops “supervise” an election outside of the occupied Canal Zone to ensure that the election comes out right.

1912: CUBA. The U.S. puppet dictatorship of Cuba systematically represses, harasses and murders black Cubans and establishes concentration camps into which they are forced. When black people demonstrate against their repression in Oriente, thousands (estimates vary from two thousand to six thousand) are slaughtered by the U.S.-installed and maintained dictatorship.

1912: UNITED STATES. Women and children are beaten by police during a textile strike in Lawrence, Massachusetts.

1912: CUBA. U.S. troops invade Cuba to “protect American interests” by crushing a rebellion by blacks in Pinar del Rio against the repressive white racist dictatorship installed and maintained by the U.S.

1912: NICARAGUA. The U.S. bombards, assaults and then occupies the city of Coyotepe.

1912: MEXICO. The United States invades Mexico at Claris Estero.

1912: UNITED STATES. The City of San Diego decides that the right of freedom of assembly doesn't apply to underpaid workers and bans street meetings. Forty one members of the Industrial Workers of the World are arrested. When the IWW holds a protest meeting in front of the San Diego City Jail, the protestors are attacked with fire hoses.

1912-1933: NICARAGUA. U.S. forces invade and occupy Nicaragua for twenty two years in order to maintain in power the previously-installed U.S. puppet Diaz dictatorship against massive popular opposition. Claiming to be “promoting peace and government stability” in Nicaragua, the U.S. stage-manages the usual fantasy "elections" in which only 4,000 of 572,000 people are permitted to vote for the one and only candidate, the U.S. puppet Diaz.

In return for being allowed to steal a fortune for himself, his family and cronies, Diaz sells out the country to U.S. banks, especially the notorious Brown Brothers Bank, which controls Nicaraguan shipping, customs collection and the central bank.

1912-1968: UNITED STATES. In the fantasyland version of American history we all know so well, Helen Keller is little more than a brave and sweet natured blind lady whose sole purpose in life seems to have been to provide an inspirational fairytale for American children.

Like so many figures in the web of lies and deception which constitute American "history", Keller's real importance and the real focus of her life has been, and still is being, systematically suppressed and replaced with an appropriately sanitized and highly deceptive version.

Recognizing that poverty, suffering, malnutrition, ill health and early death were the lot of the majority in America while the ruling class lived lives of almost unimaginable luxury at their expense and through their labor, Keller was an outspoken socialist, an opponent of rule by the robber barons, a strong proponent of women's rights and a powerful anti-war voice. A staunch advocate for the blind and the deaf, Keller maintained that much of the blindness and deafness in early twentieth century America was caused by horrifically unsafe working conditions.

Keller toured slum tenements, speaking out against the disgusting conditions in which so many Americans lived and many still do. She drew attention to the exploitation of young children as cheap labor for the ruling class. "Why," she wrote in 1912, "In this land of great wealth is there great poverty? Why do children toil in the mills while thousands of men cannot get work, why do women who do nothing have thousands of dollars a year to spend?"

As with Emma Goldman, repeated attempts were made to silence Keller for pointing out the obvious. As she became more outspoken, her publishing opportunities became ever more limited. When John D. Rockefeller's guards shot thirteen people and burned eleven children and two women alive in the Ludlow mine massacare in Colorado in 1914, newspapers refused to carry Keller's condemnation of Rockefeller. She then spoke out publicly against the murdering old bastard.

"I have followed, step by step, the developments in Colorado, where women and children have been ruthlessly slaughtered. Mr. Rockefeller is a monster of capitalism. He gives charity in the same breath he permits the helpless workmen, their wives and children to be shot down," she said.

But, Americans of the day weren't supposed to hear or read such things and Americans of today are not supposed to know that Keller ever said such things.

1905-1909: Treacherous Muslims and Ze Quest For Ze Master Race

1905: HONDURAS. U.S. Marines invade Honduras “to protect interests”.

1905: DOMINICAN REPUBLIC. The U.S. invades and occupies the cities of Monte Cristo, Puerto Plata, Samana and Sanchez in order to seize customs revenues on behalf of U.S. banking interests. U.S. Navy vessels remain off the coast to intimidate any Dominicans who might be harboring foolish ideas about defending their country.

1905: RUSSIA. In the first of many attempts to grab Russian oil reserves, robber baron John D. Rockefeller sends large sums of money to Lenin and Trotsky in an attempt to topple the Czar, who won't let Rockefeller have the goodies. Rockefeller's goal is to instigate and control the first Communist revolution in Russia and then get his hands on the oil with the connivance of the grateful revolutionaries.

1905-1913: UNITED STATES. The major bankers, including America's most ruthless robber barons, begin conspiring to establish a privately-owned central bank which will create and control the U.S. money supply, effectively giving the robber barons almost complete control of the U.S. economy. Among the conspirators are J.P. Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, the Rothschilds and Paul Warburg.

In a particularly devious plot to build public and political support for a central bank, Morgan publishes rumors that many American banks are insolvent, creating a run on the banks. The smaller banks then have to call in loans in order to repay their depositors, forcing borrowers to sell their properties for a pittance. The result is a spiral of bankruptcy leading to the financial collapse of 1907.

The collapse is duly followed by a Senate commission which, by amazing coincidence, determines that a central bank, exactly as envisioned by the men who had brought about the collapse in the first place, is the answer to all these little financial difficulties. By another amazing coincidence, the Senate commission is headed by none other than Nelson Aldrich, a man deep in the bankers' deep pockets and soon to be married into the Rockefeller family.

A happy side effect of the Panic of 1907, as with all other panics, depressions and financial collapses, is that the boys in the back room, the Rockefellers, Morgans, Rothschilds, Warburgs and their clubmates, can swoop down and pick up the wreckage of their smaller competitors' banks for a fraction of their previous worth, consolidating their control of the banking industry.

The Morgan interests took advantage
to precipitate the panic (of 1907),
guiding it shrewdly as it progressed.

Fredrik Allen, Life Magazine.

1906: UNITED STATES. Emma Goldman is arrested in New York at an anarchist meeting called to protest police suppression of free speech at a previous meeting. Can't be havin' no free speech about suppression of free speech in the land of the free now, can we? Is it okay to say that?

1906:PHILIPPINES. The resistance of the Muslim "Moro" people of the Philippines to the invasion and occupation of their country by the U.S. goes on. The Moros total some three hundred thousand people, less than five percent of the total Filipino population, but control about forty five percent of the land area, a situation the American invaders find intolerable.

The Lord God Almighty through his representative on Earth, William McKinley, had on October 24, 1898, personally ordered the U.S. to seize the Philipppines and so the U.S. duly carries out a genocidal campaign against the "savage" Moros, destroying homes and villages, slaughtering men, women and children. The American crusade against the Moros reaches its low point at what is euphemistically called the Battle of Bud Dajo.

About six hundred people, most of whom are unarmed women and children, seek sanctuary in the fortified crater of an extinct volcano on Jolo Island. The Moro men are armed with less than two hundred old rifles and with knives and spears. Their "artillery" consists of rocks to be thrown at the attackers.

Major General Leonard Wood, a good buddy of Theodore Roosevelt's, leads about eight hundred American soldiers to the crater. Artillery pieces are brought up and ranged around the lip of the crater and then used to slaughter the Moros "like fish in a barrel", killing every single person in the crater. Among the dead are 196 women and 340 children. The Washington Post breathlessly prints the story of the Bud Dajo massacre as the “Thrilling Story of American Valor.” Theodore Roosevelt, not to be outdone by anyone in the murderous bullshit sweepstakes, congratulates Wood on “the brilliant feat of arms wherein you....so well upheld the honor of the American flag.”

U.S. Secretary of War William Howard Taft, cables Roosevelt that “the well-known treachery of the Mohammedan” and “the fanatical and savage desire that their women and children should perish with them” made the slaughter “unavoidable.” It sure is a relief to know that America retains the moral high ground and that the massacre was the fault of them filthy, fanatical Muslims and not the pure, white Christian boys lobbing the shells down on their heads. As the bodies of Muslim families rot in Bud Dajo, Taft throws a Philippine-themed dinner party.

President Roosevelt finds Taft's explanation “entirely satisfactory.” An official whitewash, excuse the pun, quickly clears Wood of having done anything un-Christian. Instead of swinging on the end of a rope as a mass murderer and war criminal, Wood is, appropriately enough, made U.S. Army Chief of Staff.

We will conquer the world,
but we will lose our soul.

John Quincy Adams

1906: UNITED STATES. Black troops riot against racial segregation in the U.S. military. Three companies of black soldiers are discharged by President Theodore Roosevelt. Can't be havin' no uppity niggers trying to upset apartheid in the U.S. Army.

1906: HONDURAS. U.S. Marines invade Honduras “to protect interests”.

1906: MEXICO. In the spirit of international cooperation, Arizona State Troopers are brought into Mexico by the management to slaughter workers striking at the American-owned Cananea copper mine.

The people of Mexico will have
to be supplanted by another race,
which is gradually being done,
before any great development
can be expected there.

James Stillman

1906: PHILIPPINES. Filipinos enjoy the boundless benefits of America's God-directed "benevolent assimilation" when Dr. Richard "Mengele" Strong, a professor of tropical medicine at Harvard, experiments with cholera on prisoners in the Philippines, killing thirteen of the filthy heathen.

1906-ongoing: UNITED STATES. Devout Christian, corn flake magnate and anti-masturbation campaigner J.H. Kellogg begins ze quest for ze master race by founding The Race Betterment Foundation. Kellogg was a classic master race proponent, a screaming loony, who put boxing gloves on little boys at bedtime so they couldn't touch their pee pees and considered a daily enema of several gallons of water to have a beneficial effect in reducing sexual tension. Maybe he had a point, the enema was so much fun, you didn't need anything else.

A remedy for masturbation which is almost always successful in small boys is circumcision. The operation should be performed by a surgeon without administering an anesthetic, as the brief pain attending the operation will have a salutary effect upon the mind, especially if it be connected with the idea of punishment. In females, the author has found the application of pure carbolic acid to the clitoris an excellent means of allaying the abnormal excitement. J.H. Kellogg

Contrary to what we have been carefully programmed to believe, the quest for the master race was not a creation of the German Nazis but of the American ruling elite and their minions, following naturally from the racism of the "Founding Fathers" including slave owner Thomas Jefferson who wrote that "blacks, whether originally a distinct race, or made distinct by time and circumstances, are inferior to the whites in the endowments both of body and mind."

Kellogg, a staunch advocate of apartheid who believed that the American gene pool would be "contaminated" by immigrants and various inferior races, will soon be joined by the Rockefellers, the Harrimans, the Dulles family, the Bush family and many other members of the ruling class and their lackeys who will finance and promote the pseudo-science of eugenics not only throughout the United States but in Germany, leading ultimately to the mass murder of tens of millions of Slavs, Jews, Gypsies and other "subhumans".

Eugenics enjoys rapid growth in America's rich racist soil and becomes an integral part of American culture. Ministers of the Christian religion are encouraged to make reference to the quest for racial purity in their sermons and are given awards by the American Eugenics Society for their efforts.

American high school biology texts contain chapters on limiting immigration and on sterilization and race segregation in the cause of eugenics. When the motion picture is invented, eugenics movies are quickly made and distributed. American children are taught that eugenics is morally right and is the only way to preserve ze "purity of America's gene pool". "Fitter Family" contests are held at state fairs to determine the "purity" of a family's bloodline. Losers are sent to the gas chambers. Sorry, just kidding. For the time being, at least.

1906-09: CUBA. The U.S. invades and occupies Cuba to “protect American interests” by controlling the outcome of elections.

1906: UNITED STATES. Ten blacks and two whites are killed during race rioting in Atlanta.

1907: NICARAGUA. The U.S. invades Nicaragua at Puerto Cortés on behalf of the usual "interests", American coporations.

1907: HONDURAS. U.S. troops invade and occupy five Honduran cities to “protect American interests”. Try to guess what they are.

1907: CHILE. The American-supported Chilean dictatorship uses machine guns supplied by the U.S. to gun down as many as three thousand striking saltpeter workers and their families in Iquique. The workers are part of the growing labor movement in Chile which threatens to reduce the profits of business owners by demanding a living wage and safer working conditions.

1908: PANAMA. U.S. troops invade to ensure the "correct" outcome of elections.

1907: UNITED STATES. Emma Goldman is arrested in New York while attempting to exercise freedom of speech by speaking on "The Misconceptions of Anarchism". Naughty Emma.

1908: UNITED STATES. A fifteen year veteran of the U.S. Army, William Buwalda, shakes Emma Goldman's hand after she gives a lecture on patriotism in San Francisco. Buwalda is duly court martialed and sentenced to five years hard labor and a dishonorable discharge. Naughty William. There ain't no constitutional right to shake hands.

1908: UNITED STATES. When two accused black men are transferred from the local jail for their own safety, white residents of Springfield, Illinois go on a racist rampage. The residents of Abraham Lincoln's home town set fire to homes and businesses in the black section of Springfield. A crowd of almost twelve thousand comes to watch the fun and sabotages attempts by fire fighters to put out the blazes. A black man who attempts to defend his business is killed, his business is burned and his body hung from a tree.

Thousands of black residents flee Springfield as five thousand National Guard troops enter. The National Guard does not stop the killing. The mob seizes an eighty four year old black man whose crime is being married to a white woman. The mob cuts his throat and lynches him in a schoolyard. Forty black owned homes and some twenty black businesses are destroyed in the rioting. At least seven people are killed.

Ultimately, a grand jury brings in over a hundred indictments but only one defendant is convicted of a crime, stealing a sword. The white woman who had directed much of the violence committed suicide before facing charges. The woman whose accusation of rape had started the rioting, later admitted that she had lied.

1908-1921: UNITED STATES. Black boxer Jack Johnson knocks out Tommy Burns in Australia and becomes heavyweight boxing champion of the world. Johnson's victory sets off a firestorm of racism orchestrated by the American press who call for a "great white hope to restore order to the world."

The great white hope is former champion Jim Jeffries who comes out of retirement saying, "I am going into this fight for the sole purpose of proving that a white man is better than a Negro." At the 1910 fight between Johnson and Jeffries, the ringside band plays "All coons look alike to me" and the all-white crowd chants "Kill the nigger".

Jeffries is, in fact, the great white disappointment and Johnson whups his white ass real good. Johnson's victory is followed by race riots throughout the U.S., as white lynch mobs attack black neighborhoods. The Texas Legislature bans films of Johnson's victories over white boxers. In 1913, Johnson flees the U.S. in the wake of trumped up charges of violating the Mann Act's stipulations against transporting white women across state lines for prostitution. He returns to the U.S. in 1920 and is duly arrested and sent to Leavenworth Prison where there is a reduced risk of him defeating any white boxing champions.

1909: UNITED STATES. A Greek man accused of having an affair with a “white” woman in Omaha kills a police officer trying to arrest him, presumably under the city's No Porking of Honky Women by Greeks ordinance. The Omaha Daily News unleashes a hate campaign against immigrants. "Greeks are a menace to the American laboring man...just as the Japs, Italians, and other similar laborers (are)," the paper tells its readers.

When mobs fail in their attempt to seize and lynch the accused, they turn on the neighborhood of Greek Town, burning and looting homes and businesses and beating men, women and children. Eventually, every building in the immigrant neighborhood is burned to the ground. Police do nothing to stop the violence and, ultimately all people of Greek descent are driven from the area.

The news and truth are not the same thing.

Walter Lippmann

1909-1912: NICARAGUA. The United States repeatedly invades Nicaragua to “protect American interests” which consist primarily of those of the notorious Brown Brothers Bank, financial backer of slave cotton production and later to be instrumental in the financing of the rise of the German Nazi party and Adolf Hitler via George W. Bush’s grandfather, Prescott Bush, and, by amazing coincidence, in the selling of put options prior to the World Trade Center attacks in 2001.

1909-59: CUBA. A series of U.S.-maintained racist white dictatorships, sometimes installed via stage-managed “elections”, rules Cuba. Corruption, repression, racial discrimination and hopeless poverty for the majority are the norm while the local white elite such as the Bacardi family and wealthy Americans such as merchant of death, master race proponent and Nazi supporter-to-be Irenee Dupont steal the land and wealth of the country.

1909: UNITED STATES. Female garment workers go on strike in New York and a large number are duly arrested. Can't be havin' no withdrawal of labor in the land of the free. The presiding judge tells the arrested women, "You are on strike against God."

1900-1904: The Philippines, A Full Dress Rehearsal For Iraq

1900: UNITED STATES. Cuba begins to benefit mightily from its forced association with America as Walter Reed infects twenty two workers in Cuba with yellow fever paying them $100 if they survive and $200 if they contract the disease. They name a military hospital after the heroic doctor.

1900: PHILIPPINES. Genocide artist cum U.S. Army General Elwell Otis tries to deflect criticism of atrocities and torture by U.S. troops by claiming that the Filipinos who are defending their country are just as naughty as the Americans who have invaded and occupied it. Filipino leader Emilio Aguinaldo suggests that neutral journalists and representatives of the International Red Cross inspect his military operations.

Otis refuses to allow such a thing but Aguinaldo manages to smuggle four reporters,two English, one Canadian and one Japanese, into the countryside to see the treatment of American prisoners first hand. They report that American prisoners of the Filipinos are “treated more like guests than prisoners,” and are “fed the best that the country affords". The four reporters are expelled from the Philippines by the U.S. as soon as their stories are printed. American prisoners released by the Filipinos tell other reporters that they too had been well treated.

1901: CHINA. U.S. Marines invade China to “secure facilities” for Rockefeller’s Standard Oil.

1901: COLOMBIA. The U.S. invades the Colombian state of Panama to “protect interests”.

1901: UNITED STATES. The U.S. Army violently suppresses a Creek Indian revolt in Oklahoma.

1901: CUBA. The infamous Platt Amendment to the U.S. Army Appropriations Bill “gives the U.S. the right (sic)” to “intervene militarily in Cuba whenever the U.S. decides such intervention is warranted.” The Cubans, still under military occupation by the U.S., are given the “option” of accepting the Platt Amendment as part of the Cuban Constitution or having the U.S. remain in occupation of Cuba forever.

1901-22: UNITED STATES. In a series of decisions, the U.S. Supreme Court rules that colonies of the United States which, as we all know, do not exist, are constitutional but that U.S. constitutional rights do not necessarily apply to the colonized peoples of the non-existent colonies. Praise the Lord we got that straight.

1901: UNITED STATES. That revered American institution, the lone assassin, springs out of the woodwork at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, and fires a few shots into the Rockefellers' hand picked and financed boy, President William McKinley.

McKinley survives and seems to be recovering nicely but then, unexpectedly and unaccountably, goes downhill and dies. The culprit is one Leon Czolgosz, identified as an anarchist. At the time, native Americans having been genocided almost out of existence, anarchism was the bogey man of the day and the excuse for whatever repression was required to maintain the status quo. The war on anarchism, to coin a phrase, was especially useful in keeping factory workers laboring away in atrocious conditions for a pittance in order to further enrich the ruling class.

On McKinley's being taken into the bosom of God, the Morgans' boy, Theodore Roosevelt, vaults into the presidency, having been vice-president for only six months since the death of Garret Hobart. Roosevelt is ideal presidential material: a racist, warmongering, jingoistic tool of the Morgans. What more could the ruling elite ask for?

I don't go so far as to think that the only good Indians are dead Indians, but I believe nine out of every ten are, and I shouldn't like to inquire too closely into the case of the tenth. Theodore Roosevelt

The shooting of McKinley provides an excellent opportunity for some fear mongering and persecution. In Chicago, nine anarchists are charged with conspiracy to assassinate McKinley although there is absolutely no evidence linking them to the assassination. Another anarchist is arrested for, gasp, publishing an article in a German language anarchist paper. In Kansas, vigilantes attack a meeting of anarchists. In Wyoming, a man expressing sympathy for Czolgosz is tarred and feathered. In New York, a suspected anarchist is mobbed.

It's amazing how fast the wheels of "justice" can spin when they want to. Ole Lee Harvey, sorry, Leon is arrested, tried, convicted and is sitting on death row, all within twenty days of the shooting, getting a quick lesson in Truth, Justice Or The American Way. Czolgosz exercises his Constitutional right to remain silent. His lawyer, Loran Lewis, does not call any witnesses in Czolgosz' defense and, apparently never having heard of the Constitution, tells the jury that his client's silence is an admission of guilt. With a defense attorney like that, who needs a prosecutor? Czolgosz is duly fried in the electric chair. Lewis goes on to greater things.

1901: UNITED STATES. Emma Goldman, taking all that bullshit about free speech a little too literally for the powers-that-be, writes an article describing the late McKinley as the "president of the money kings and trust magnates." Goldman is duly arrested, "vigorously" interrogated, held for two weeks then released without being charged with any crime. Goldman was, of course, absolutely right. McKinley was exactly what she said; bought and paid for by the Rockefellers and their clubmates. Moreover, McKinley was the first great war criminal and mass murderer of the twentieth century, a trivial detail which remains buried beneath the usual mountain of pious nonsense.

1901: CUBA. The rape of Cuba by the U.S. ruling class gets underway with a vengeance. American lumber interests move in and begin clear cutting Cuba's ten million acres of virgin timber. American companies take over mines, sugar plantations and railroads. The Rockefellers' murderous United Fruit swoops down on Cuba "buying" almost two million acres of the country for twenty cents an acre. Within a year, more than eighty percent of Cuban mineral exports are in American corporate hands.

1901-02: PHILIPPINES. The Philippine resistance to the American occupation kills fifty four American troops in the town of Balangiga on Samar Island. Fighting back against the American occupation is, of course, strictly verboten and this relatively trivial opposition to the American theft of their country by Filipino patriots is massively propagandized by the U.S. press as the Balangiga Massacre.

The U.S. launches a vicious collective punishment of the Filipino people in retaliation. General Jacob H. Smith tells the commanding officer of the Marines assigned to "clean up" the island of Samar, "I want no prisoners. I wish you to kill and burn; the more you kill and burn the better it will please me." He orders that the entire island of Samar be converted into a "howling wilderness." He specifically orders that all males over the age of ten are to be shot. Step one is to burn the town of Balangiga to the ground.

The U.S. then cuts food and trade in order to starve the people of Samar into submission to their American masters. U.S. troops rampage across the island looting and burning thousands of homes. And killing. In its relentless quest for justice, the United States slaughters tens of thousands of inhabitants of the island of Samar, virtually all of them helpless civilians.

Three church bells looted from the ruins of the parish church of Balangiga by American soldiers are still proudly held by the U.S. military, two at Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming and the other by the 9th Infantry Regiment, currently stationed in the U.S. client regime of South Korea.

A frisky volunteer from the state of Washington writes, "Our fighting blood was up, and we all wanted to kill 'niggers'....This shooting human beings beats rabbit hunting all to pieces."

1901: PHILIPPINES. The U.S. establishes concentration camps in the Philippines. Eventually, hundreds of thousands of Filipinos will be held captive in the camps and thousands will die in them. American troops commit countless war crimes and atrocities, systematically destroying everything outside the so-called “dead lines”, including crops, boats, animals, houses, farm buildings and human beings. Property belonging to the concentration camp inmates is stolen. U.S. troops enslave Filipinos, particularly those of Chinese descent, as forced labor.

Torture is standard American procedure. The so-called water cure was very widely used by the U.S. in its war against the people of the Philippines. Other beneficiaries of "benevolent assimilation" were hanged by the thumbs, dragged by horses or hung with fires then started beneath them. A favorite American torture was tying a victim to a tree and shooting him or her through the legs. The victim was shot again each day until either he "confessed" or died.

American troops routinely murdered wounded Filipinos and bragged of "taking no prisoners". Official reports claimed that fifteen Filipinos were killed by the U.S. for every one wounded, almost the inverse of the norm. General Arthur McArthur, never one to miss an opportunity for a racist comment, explained the unsual death/wounded ratio by saying that whites do not succumb to wounds as readily as people of "inferior races."

The war in the Philippines has been conducted by the American army with scrupulous regard for the rules of civilized warfare, with careful and genuine consideration for the prisoner and the non-combatant, with self-restraint, and with humanity never surpassed. Elihu Root, U.S. Secretary of War

Root, highly paid shyster for some of the most ruthless Americans in history including William "Boss" Tweed and robber barons Jay Gould and E. H. Harriman was, not surprisingly, a little flexible when it came to matters of truth.

I am now stationed in a small town in charge of twenty five men, and have a territory of twenty miles to patrol....At the best, this is a very rich country; and we want it. My way of getting it would be to put a regiment into a skirmish line, and blow every nigger into nigger heaven. On Thursday, March 29, eighteen of my company killed seventy-five nigger bolomen and ten of the nigger gunners....When we find one that is not dead, we have bayonets. U.S. Soldier

1902: COLOMBIA. A U.S. naval blockade is set up and American forces invade the Colombian state of Panama to prevent the government of Colombia defending the Isthmus against an impending U.S. attack.

1902: UNITED STATES. President Theodore Roosevelt does his bit for white supremacy as he inaugurates Arlington National Cemetery on Memorial Day. Thirty thousand people hear Roosevelt speak with “indignation in every word" about this “small but peculiarly trying and difficult war” and "the honor of the flag”. Best of all, Roosevelt characterizes America's genocidal imperial war against the people of the Philippines as a "triumph of civilization over forces which stand for the black chaos of savagery and barbarism."

To what extent Roosevelt is just performing his primary task as president and lying and to what extent he is delusional remain open to debate but the Filipino people, of whom America will eventually kill almost a million and whose country will be effectively stolen from them for almost a century, would doubtless challenge Roosevelt's statement that it is a small war.

But Roosevelt's slimy racist hypocrisy at least has an appropriate venue. Arlington National Cemetery, theoretically the final resting place of valiant American warriors, will become the final resting place of some of America's worst mass murderers, Nazis and traitors.

1902: UNITED STATES. Senator George Hoar demands an investigation as evidence mounts of U.S. war crimes in the Philippines. Theodore Roosevelt resists Hoar’s demands and growing public opposition to the racist, imperialist war against the people of the Philippines and persistent reports of war crimes, atrocities and torture by American troops.

A public statement by American Brigadier General Jacob H. Smith that he intended to set the entire Philippine island of Samar ablaze and would probably wipe out most of the population, finally forces Roosevelt to do a little PR work. He gives the job of whitewashing American war crimes to dyed–in-the-wool imperialist, Republican Senator Henry Cabot Lodge whose standing U.S. Senate Committee on the Philippines has been studiously avoiding the question of American war crimes for months.

But even Lodge can’t keep the lid on the cauldron of war crimes and torture being acted out by the United States of America. The first witness is the latest U.S.-installed dictator of the Philippines, William Howard Taft, who concedes under questioning that Filipinos are being tortured by the U.S. military. General Robert P. Hughes, chief of staff to genocide artist, General Elwell S. Otis, concedes that Filipino houses are burned indiscriminately. David P. Barrows, explains that the concentration camps established by the U.S. military and the tortures being conducted by the U.S. are not really as bad as people think and that the Filipinos are actually benefiting from it all.

The report of the U.S.-installed dictator of the province of Tayabas, Major Cornelius Gardener is presented to the Committee:

Of late by reason of the conduct of the troops, such as the extensive burning of the barrios in trying to lay waste the country so that the insurgents (sic) cannot occupy it, the torturing of natives by so-called water cure and other methods, in order to obtain information, the harsh treatment of natives generally, and the failure of inexperienced, lately appointed Lieutenants commanding posts, to distinguish between those who are friendly and those unfriendly and to treat every native as if he were, whether or no, an insurrecto (sic) at heart, this favorable sentiment above referred to is being fast destroyed and a deep hatred toward us engendered.

Attempts to have Major Gardener appear before the Committee are duly blocked.

Sergeant Charles S. Riley testifies about entire villages being burned by U.S. forces and described the "water cure" torture carried out by U.S. troops against Filipinos.

A.(The victim) was tied and placed on his back under a water-tank holding probably one hundred gallons. The faucet was opened, and a stream of water was forced down or allowed to run down his throat. His throat was held so he could not prevent swallowing the water, so that he had to allow the water to run into his stomach. He was directly under the faucet, with his mouth held wide open. When he was filled with water, it was forced out of him by pressing a foot on his stomach or else with the hands; and this continued from five to fifteen minutes." A native interpreter stood directly over this man as he lay on the floor, and "kept saying some one word which I should judge meant 'confess' or 'answer.' When this unhappy man was taken down and asked more questions, he again refused to answer, and then was treated again.
Q. In front?
A. Yes, on the stone walk. They started to take him inside the building, and Captain Glenn said, "Don't take him inside. Right here is good enough." One of the men of the Eighteenth Infantry went to his saddle and took a syringe from the saddlebag, and another man was sent for a can of water, what we call a kerosene can, holding about five gallons. He brought this can of water down from upstairs, and then a syringe was inserted one end in the water and the other end in his mouth. This time he was not bound, but he was held by four or five men and the water was forced into his mouth from the can, through the syringe.
Q. Was this another party?
A. No, this was the same man. The syringe did not seem to have the desired effect, and the doctor ordered a second one. The man got a second syringe, and that was inserted in his nose. Then the doctor (Dr. Lyons, an American) ordered some salt, and a handful of salt was procured and thrown into the water. Two syringes were then in operation. The interpreter stood over him in the meantime asking for this second information that was desired. Finally, he gave in and gave the information that they sought, and then he was allowed to rise.

Private William L Smith corroborates Sergeant Riley's testimony and admits that he had assisted in the complete destruction by burning of the town of Igbaras, a town of ten thousand people. Sergeant Edward J. Davis related other incidents of torture by U.S. forces and the burning of another town of twelve thousand people. Other witnesses recounted similar incidents.

Until recently, I had thought that these things (torture) were sporadic and isolated, but I have been forced to the belief that they are but a part of the general plan of campaign. Senator Joseph Lafayette Rawlins

By a strict party vote, the Committee refuses to call other proposed witnesses, calling witnesses instead from a "safe" list created by the U.S. War Department. The attempt to hide the truth of what the U.S. is doing to the Filipino people backfires when the veterans on the safe list begin lecturing the anti-imperialist members of the Committee on the need to shoot and/or burn all Filipinos because of their "inability to appreciate human kindness."

1902: PHILIPPINES. U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt declares that the U.S. war against the Filipino people has ended but, inevitably, it's just another lie. The Filipinos' resistance to the occupation of their country by the U.S. continues unabated. The Filipinos defending their country against the U.S. are, in the usual way, referred to as insurgents by the U.S. government and by the ever-cooperative U.S. press. In total, the U.S. will use just under 130,000 troops to invade and occupy the Philippines. The American troops will be led by a total of thirty generals, twenty six of whom are highly qualified for the job, having been engaged in the United States Government's genocide of native Americans.

The war against the people of the Philippines was a classic American war of empire. The U.S. used what was, for the time, high tech weaponry and relied on American warships to bombard Filipino positions. The Filipinos defending their country were forced to use rifles picked up from the dead, spears, lances and machetes. American losses were trivial, 4234 deaths of which the majority were from disease. Less than 1500 Americans were killed in combat. Philippine military deaths are estimated at around 20,000. The number of completely innocent Filipino civilians killed by the U.S. in the process of "benevolent assimilation" is probably between 600,000 and 1,000,000. Millions of Filipinos were injured and maimed. Hundreds of thousands of houses were burned, hundreds of towns and villages destroyed.

We have pacified some thousands of the islanders and buried them; destroyed their fields; burned their villages, and turned their widows and orphans out-of-doors; furnished heartbreak by exile to some dozens of disagreeable patriots and subjugated the remaining ten millions by Benevolent Assimilation, which is the pious new name of the musket. Mark Twain

The U.S. conducts a military occupation of the Philippines until the 1920s. After the U.S. ceases direct military occupation, it installs a series of brutal dictatorships, armed, supported and controlled by the U.S., culminating in the viciously repressive and rapacious regime of Ferdinand Marcos. While stealing billions for themselves and their cronies, the dictatorships repay their American benefactors by permitting the U.S. military to construct and maintain massive military bases in the Philippines and to use Filipinos as vast pool of cheap and politically powerless labor.

Among the many notable American accomplishments in the Philippines was the destruction of the first republic to be established in Asia.

1902: PHILIPPINES/UNITED STATES. Pressure by anti-imperialist groups in the U.S. finally forces the War Department to charge two American officers in connection with the Samar holocaust. Major Littleton Waller is charged with ordering the execution of eleven Filipino guides who had committed the crime of finding edible roots without telling American troops about them. During the court martial, Waller testified that, during a single eleven day period, his men burned more than two hundred and fifty homes, shot thirteen water buffalo and killed thirty nine people. Waller's defense was the admirable one that he was simply "following orders" The standard Nazi defence seems perfectly reasonable to the court martial board and Waller is duly acquitted.

General Jacob "Kill Everyone Over Ten" Smith is then court martialled. In the Kafkaesque world of the U.S. military, he is not charged with mass murder, genocide or war crimes, of which he abundantly and self-evidently guilty, but with "conduct to the prejudice of good order and military discipline". In other words shooting his mouth off to the press about turning Samar into a howling wilderness and killing everyone over the age of ten. It's okay to kill all them niggers, you're just not supposed to tell everyone you're gonna do it. Smith is duly found guilty of saying nasty things in the hearing of the press and sentenced "to be admonished by the reviewing authority." Smith's "admonishment" is retirement. When he steps ashore in San Francisco in August 1902 he is wildly cheered as a hero.

I personally strung up thirty-five Filipinos without trial, so what was all the fuss over Waller's "dispatching" a few "treacherous savages"? If there had been more Smiths and Wallers, the war would have been over long ago. Impromptu domestic hanging might also hasten the end of the war. For starters, all Americans who had recently petitioned Congress to sue for peace in the Phillipines should be dragged out of their homes and lynched.

In the fine tradition of the American military, Funston, a self-confessed mass murderer and a man who advocated lynching Americans for practising freedom of speech, will be forever honored by having Fort Funston in California named after him.
