Letter #33
Hello, my friends, this is Dr. Beter. Today is April 28, 1978, and
this is my Audioletter No. 33.
On a summer day in 1971, two men in space suits sat aboard an
awkward looking four-wheeled vehicle that was making its way across
the surface of the moon. American astronauts David Scott and James
Irwin, the lunar landing crew of Apollo 15, were on their way to get
a close look at the gigantic lunar canyon known as Hadley Rille.
They were the first men in history to go for a ride on the lunar
surface. As they bumped along, they passed the rim of a crater,
which they named Earthlight Crater. Mission Control in Houston
radioed back, “Arthur Clarke would be proud of you.” Sixteen years
earlier, in 1955, the renowned British writer Arthur C. Clarke had
published a prophetic book with the title “Earthlight.” Published
two years before the Space Age dawned with Sputnik One, Earthlight
was about man’s then future occupation of the moon; and in honor of
Clarke’s vision, the Apollo 15 astronauts named Earthlight Crater
after the book. And very often during television coverage of the
American visits to the moon, Walter Cronkite of CBS News had at his
elbow none other than Arthur C. Clarke. In his book, Clarke painted
a vivid picture of the great value the moon would
acquire—scientifically, economically, and strategically. The climax
of this book, honored so uniquely by the Apollo 15 astronauts, is
called the “Battle of Pico”, a hypothetical space battle centered on
the moon; and while the details are quite different, Clarke’s
fictional Battle of Pico foreshadowed in eerie ways the real space
battle that took place more than two decades later in September
1977. The Battle of the Harvest Moon has been kept a secret from the
public, both by the victor (the Soviet Union), and by the vanquished
(the United States of America); but it is the key to understanding
the increasingly headlong retreat of the United States on all fronts
under the new boldness of the Kremlin.
Like September 1977, April 1978 has been a watershed month in the
needless decline and fall of the United States and of the western
world. Now, as last September, crucial developments havetaken place
under the shroud of secrecy with no official hint of what is
actually taking place. Now, as then, the only public clues to the
momentous developments going on behind the scenes are obscure
diplomatic maneuvers and mysterious occurrences of all kinds. Last
September, for example, there was the mystery of the so-called UFO
over Petrozavodsk in the Soviet Union. Then, a scant week later,
there was the loudly trumpeted breakthrough in SALT II negotiations.
This breakthrough, we were told, accounted for the highly unusual
sudden nighttime meeting with Jimmy Carter at the White House
demanded by Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. As I told you
that month in Audioletter No. 26, the object over Petrozavodsk was
not a UFO, and the major media stories about a SALT breakthrough
were lies to mislead the public; and today, seven months later,
there still is no SALT II agreement.
This month there is the alleged mystery of the Korean air liner that
intruded into Soviet airspace while Secretary of State Vance was in
Moscow to discuss arms limitations. The talks took place against a
background of clear Soviet threats that this was to be America’s
last chance to conclude a SALT II treaty. The talks ended as
deadlocked as ever; but suddenly the Soviet stance in public is the
embodiment of sweet reason and patience. Meanwhile, Secretary Vance
refuses to tell the public anything about what went on in Moscow.
Today, the Republic of the United States of America is in the
twilight of final decline prior to nuclear war. Our secret rulers
behind the scenes are still trying to salvage what they can from
their ruined plan for world conquest, and in the process are making
our situation even more desperate day by day. They are manipulating
our economy and our politics to their own ends. They still believe
that their wealth will save them from the nuclear nightmare that
they are bringing upon the rest of us, and they are stalling for
time hoping to obtain the fruits of crash projects of military
development in time to stave off the crushing military might of the
Soviet Union.
Since the Battle of the Harvest Moon seven months ago, ideology is
rapidly being cast aside as the determining factor for the actions
of governments. As the world drifts closer to war, it’s increasingly
every nation for itself in the arena of world affairs. Historical
patterns and alignments are pushing aside ideological arguments, and
the survival instinct is taking the place of treaties and even of
long-standing friendships between nations. The shabby treatment of
America’s allies by our secret rulers over the years is now coming
home to roost. Even now, as we are being backed into a corner, our
rulers are continuing to throw chunks of meat to the advancing
Russian Bear to buy a few moments of time. As our rulers throw away
a weapon here, an ally there, the Russian Bear pauses for a moment
to digest each gain and then presses ever closer. And as we are
backed into the position of fortress America, we are increasingly a
fortress without weapons and without the spirit to survive. Like
France before May 10, 1940, we hear daily assurances of our military
strength and the dependability of our untried defenses. But like
France in 1940, we are eaten up within by spies, inaction, and
apathy.
My friends, there are those who say I should not tell you the whole
truth about behind-the-scenes events that are determining
your fate because, they say, I am frightening the people. But
consider these words of a famous German psychiatrist:
“Fear can be disruptive,
leading to panic, immobility, and abdication of rationality in
favor of blind emotion; it can also be constructive, creative in
the search for ways of escape, sharpening the wits in order to
avoid or overcome danger. One of
the difficulties is that so many of us are too apathetic to be
afraid, either trusting to fate to extricate us or shrugging our
shoulders that the prospect of what will be, will be.”
When nuclear war comes, including
geophysical warfare, only those who have been forewarned will have
any chance of avoiding the panic that will seize those who are taken
by surprise. Only total exposure can prevent nation-wide panic. The
American people will bow to a dictatorial government as our Republic
collapses in flames, and only total exposure plus a spiritual
re-awakening could possibly turn aside the man-made catastrophe that
is in store for all of us.
My three special topics for today are:

GOLD, AND THE STOCK MARKET BEAR TRAP
-
Topic #2 - KOREAN AIR
LINES FLIGHT 902 - THE FLYING LUSITANIA

Topic #3 - THE TWILIGHT
OF THE UNITED STATES REPUBLIC.
Topic #1
- For several years now the Stock Market
has been following a long term trend downward, crashing in slow
motion. But just two weeks ago on April 14, 1978, the Stock Market
in New York suddenly jumped out of the doldrums, as if on signal.
Without plausible explanation trading volume soared to astronomical
levels setting all-time records, while the Dow Jones averages raced
upward steadily. Meanwhile, government economic statistics were sold
to the public as showing that our economy was picking up, and even
the badly slumping United States dollar appeared to be gaining a new
lease on life, thanks to rumors that the United States government
was about to start auctioning off gold to prop up the dollar. But as
every housewife knows, inflation is advancing steadily, eating up
the family budget and making it even harder to make ends meet. And
while the government drones on and on about inflation a few per cent
per year, shoppers find prices on practically everything today
leaping upward week by week. It’s enough to make one think the
government and the Stock Market are in a dream world of their own.
And, my friends, they are.
We still hear monthly about America’s balance of payments deficit,
even though it has become an obsolete measurement. As I explained
five years ago in my book THE CONSPIRACY AGAINST THE DOLLAR, the
traditional balance of payments measurement has been outmoded by
multinational corporations, most of them owned and controlled by our
Secret Rulers. Over 200 of the mightiest of these together with
their multinational banks form the economic empire of the
Rockefeller cartel. Multinationals push money and goods around among
themselves however they please, and as these dollars cross national
borders they cause the nation’s balance of payments to reflect
whatever they choose.
For example, foreign affiliates of American multinational
corporations send oil from abroad to America and are paid in dollars
that contribute to a so-called negative balance of payments for the
United States, even though the companies involved are effectively
Rockefeller controlled on all sides of the transactions.
Today the greatest single export by American multinational companies
is jobs. The economic manipulations that have helped to solidify
Rockefeller control over the United States have alsoforced costs in
the United States to soar compared to other countries, so
increasingly the multinationals buy labor in cheaper markets
overseas that used to account for jobs in
America. The result is a steadily rising hard core of unemployed who
can no longer find jobs. This process has turned the United States
increasingly into a service-oriented economy while our basic
industries have declined. There was a time not so long ago when the
words “Made in USA” were stamped on many of the products that
dominated world markets, but no more. Today in many cases only the
name is American—the product itself is European, or Japanese, or
Mexican, or otherwise foreign made. Now this process has gone so far
that even the American lead in aerospace is fast disappearing. As
major new generations of commercial aircraft are being considered
for the world’s air line fleets, lately the competition is being won
by European manufacturers, not American.
Until recently aircraft exports have
long been the single major bright spot in America’s increasingly
dismal export picture. Now that too is slipping from our grasp. As
we Americans look around us today we are unconsciously seeing a
hollow shell of what used to be. Like a perfectly painted timber of
wood eaten up inside by termites, it still looks impressive but the
real strength is gone. Much of the technological and economic power
that used to be America’s now resides abroad—in Europe, in Japan,
and in the Soviet Union. The process of milking the United States
economically and technologically strengthened in 1961. It was part
of the two-pronged grand plan for world conquest that was set in
motion in 1961 by our Secret Rulers, the four Rockefeller brothers
and their associates.
As I’ve explained in detail in earlier tapes, one prong of this plan
was visible in its effects, involving the gradual weakening of the
United States to the point of military vulnerability. This was to
culminate in a carefully programmed nuclear war between the Soviet
Union and the United States, primarily on American soil. But then,
after the American people had been beaten down to such an extent
that we would accept complete dictatorship under Rockefeller
control, the second prong of the plan was to be put into effect—that
is, a double-cross of the Soviet Union by their secret allies the
Rockefellers.
Using supersecret weapons developed
since 1961, the plan was to utterly destroy the Soviet Union as the
climax of the war, and the Rockefellers would have emerged as the
undisputed masters of the entire world. This grand plan came to ruin
seven months ago in the disastrous Space Battle of the Harvest Moon,
but the bitter fruits of this diabolical plan are still with us.
In order to be in a position to profit from nuclear war on the soil
of the United States, the Rockefellers transferred the bulk of their
assets ahead of time to areas where they would not be touched by
Nuclear War One. This included multinational affiliates in Europe,
in Latin America, as well as to the tightly controlled Rockefeller
corporate empire in Japan. It also included massive transfers of
American money, technology, and military secrets to the Soviet Union
to cement the Rockefeller-Soviet alliance until the day of
double-cross.
The plan also included the spiriting away of the huge monetary gold
hoard of the United States. In the magic year of 1961 when the
entire grand plan was getting under way, the monetary aspect of the
plan got under way in the form of the London Gold Pool Agreement.
Under the cloak of this authority, America’s gold flowed out of the
United States in a continuing hemorrhage from 1961 to 1968, when the
Gold Pool was ended. The ending of the London Gold Pool Agreement on
March 17, 1968, was followed the very next day by the signing of
Public Law 90-269 by President Lyndon Johnson. With the stroke of a
pen the requirement that the United States dollar be backed by gold
was eliminated; and on August 15, 1971, President Richard Nixon
closed the gold window, declaring by Executive Order that the United
States would no longer redeem dollars with gold even in
international monetary transactions. It was a declaration of war on
the dollar, and since then American inflation and sinking dollar
values have gone hand in hand.
According to official United States Treasury figures, the United
States still retains the world’s largest monetary gold hoard, some
277,000,000 ounces; but four years ago this month in April, 1974, I
testified before Congress to the fact that the Treasury figures are
falsified and that the United States is in fact gold poor. Based on
very solid intelligence information, I described the secret removal
of vast quantities of gold from the bullion depository at Fort Knox
for transferral to powerful private interests. I stood ready to
present my evidence and witnesses under oath before a Federal Grand
Jury or Congressional investigation with subpoena power—but there
was no investigation, so I made my charges public by every available
means, offering to go to jail as a rabble rouser if I could not
prove my charges in a proper legal forum. But still no honest
investigation of any kind materialized! Instead, worried by mounting
public pressure, the Treasury arranged a public relations peep show
at Fort Knox.
There, invited Congressmen and newsmen
were shown stacks of strangely reddish bars of alleged gold in just
one small compartment; and this was followed by a so-called Gold
Audit, which when it was finally released after months of delay,
said only “We believe” that the gold is there. The United States
Treasury Department has been aware for some time that something
would have to be done about the resurgence of concern about Fort
Knox, so during 1977 about 1.5 million ounces of gold were obtained
from Portugal. This, plus other assorted reserves of mostly junk
gold that have been scraped together, brings America’s true gold
stock right now to just over 3-1/2 million ounces. This is a mere
pittance compared with the 277,000,000 ounces on official Treasury
books, but it does provide something to use for psychological gold
sales once again. Earlier this month the Treasury made a big deal of
announcing that the United States will hold six monthly auctions of
gold amounting to 300,000 ounces each. At this rate, if the United
States really had the claimed stocks of gold, auctions could be held
monthly for 77 years—yet the Treasury offers to do so only for six
months, as a psychological ploy.
Several years ago the Rockefellers and their associates began the
process of bailing out in preparation for war. Now, using their
control of certain key financial institutions here and abroad, they
have suddenly created an artificial Stock Market run-up, known in
some circles as a Bear Trap. The idea is to have these controlled
holders of large blocks of stock begin trading among themselves in a
frenzy back and forth, raising prices and generating tremendous
Stock Market trading volume in the process. Soon unsuspecting
outside investors, the so-called Bears who have been leery of the
sick Stock Market, are drawn into the fray to invest in what looks
like a Bull Market.
This situation may continue for some time; but
when the smoke clears, the big controlled investors who created the
artificial Bull Market will have cut their bloated portfolios, and
the normally bearish outside investors who have bought their stocks
at inflated prices will be left holding the bag. Without the
artificial pressures now being applied, the Stock Market will once
again begin sinking, and the Bears who have been sucked into the
Stock Market whirlpool will be trapped. The Stock Market Bear Trap
now in progress is bad enough, but there’s a far worse Bear Trap
that is now closing around our Secret Rulers as well as the rest of
us, and that is the War Trap of the Russian Bear.
Topic #2
- On May 7, 1915, the passenger liner
LUSITANIA was nearing the end of its journey from the United States
to Great Britain. The Great War was under way, and for nearly three
months a German submarine blockade of Britain had been in effect,
but the nearly 2,000 passengers aboard the ship were not expecting
trouble because, after all, the Lusitania was a passenger vessel.
Suddenly, without warning, torpedoes struck the Lusitania. She was
under attack from a German submarine. Soon the Lusitania sank, and
nearly 1,200 lives were lost. Only later did it come out that the
Lusitania had been carrying large quantities of vital war materiel
below decks, war materiel that was subject to the announced blockade
by Germany. The attempt had been made to sneak this war cargo
through the blockade by using nearly 2,000 unsuspecting passengers
as a protective shield against attack, but the attempt had failed
with tragic consequences.
This month, on April 20, 1978, a modern-day parallel to the
Lusitania incident took place when a Korean Air Lines Boeing 707
penetrated Soviet air space and finally was shot down. As with the
Lusitania, Korean Air Lines Flight 902 was carrying out a military
mission using the lives of unsuspecting passengers as a protective
shield against attack. But this time the mission was not the
delivery of war materiel but the gathering of intelligence.
Korean Air Lines Flight 902 was 39 minutes late taking off from
Paris that day due to an unexplained delay. Then the 707 took off
into the afternoon sun, heading northwest over the Norwegian Sea on
its Arctic route to Anchorage, Alaska. Periodically the pilot
checked in with ground stations, and as long as the 707 was within
tracking range of radar he was right on course. After passing over
northern Greenland, Flight 902 passed out of the range of ground
radar installations. Later the pilot reported that he was
approaching Ellesmere Island in extreme northern Canada; but in fact
he had put his plane into a slow, sweeping U-turn to the right,
flying a course towards an unannounced destination—the Soviet Union,
and the final position report to northern Canada given while the jet
was still outside radar tracking range served to prevent anyone from
guessing what was afoot. The Korean 707 raced into Soviet air space
from the north and passed directly over the mammoth submarine base
at Murmansk, the headquarters of the Soviet Northern Fleet.
There is no naval site in the entire
Soviet Union that is more secret or sensitive than Murmansk. As two
Sequoy 15 Jet Fighters were scrambled to intercept the 707, it
continued southward across the Kola Peninsula, which is dotted with
military installations and, like Murmansk, highly sensitive. The 707
forged ahead on its pre-planned flight route without regard for the
Fighters—it did not slow down, turn on landing lights, or do
anything else to respond to the Soviet Fighters—one of which flew
alongside, the other trailing behind the 707. After passing almost
completely across the Kola Peninsula, Flight 902 was about to head
across the narrow White Sea to pass over the Port of Archangel and
not far beyond it the supersecret Plesetsk Cosmodrome.
At that point
Moscow ordered the Fighters to force the 707 down by damaging it,
but not to destroy it. The Fighter that had been alongside dropped
back and away and the other opened fire taking care not to destroy
control surfaces or ignite the fuel tanks. Gunfire from the Fighter
tore holes in the fuselage, killing one passenger outright, fatally
wounding another, and injuring perhaps a dozen more. Cabin pressure
began dropping fast, and now the 707 was forced to dive to lower
altitudes very rapidly.
Within five minutes the 707 had dropped to only 3,000 feet where it
flew around for another hour and a half before landing finally in a
wide, clear area far from any airport. Throughout the time that the
Korean 707 was flying through Russian skies, special instruments
installed on the plane were generating reconnaissance data. The data
together with the cockpit conversation were transmitted in coded
form to CIA receivers just beyond the Soviet border. This is why
National Security Adviser Brzezinski was able so quickly to announce
that Soviet Fighters had fired on the Korean 707. As an intelligence
mission, Korean Air Lines Flight 902 was a success; but when you
hear why it was necessary, you will begin to understand just how
desperate America’s military situation has become.
As I say these words, several days have passed since the Soviet
Union allowed a Pan American Jet Liner to fly the crew, passengers,
and bodies of the two passengers who were killed from Murmansk to
Helsinki, Finland. Everyone was released except the pilot and
navigator, who are still detained in Russia for questioning.
We have heard all kinds of stories in the major news media trying to
convince us that the flight crew became “disoriented”, that the
navigation instruments of the 707 somehow misbehaved and misled the
crew, and that the United States government is very puzzled about it
all. But after the crew and passengers were rescued from the
crash-landed Korean 707, it very quickly became obvious to Soviet
authorities that the intrusion into Russian air space could not have
been accidental. For example, the navigation instruments on a Boeing
707 use what is called Redundant Design so that the failure of even
a major component in the system cannot destroy the accuracy of the
navigational data available to the crew. As for the effects of
magnetic compass variations in Arctic regions, these effects are
real; but for many years Jet Transports have been using Polar routes
many times daily without difficulty, because there are standard
techniques to correct for these magnetic variations.
The crew of Korean Air Lines Flight 902
were well experienced in Polar flights and in using these
techniques; and yet, for the whole episode to have been accidental,
the seasoned pilot, co-pilot, and navigator would have had to miss
the most familiar and unmistakable of all navigation clues—the
position of the sun. Even some of the passengers said after their
ordeal that they had privately become worried when midway through
the flight the sun shifted around from a position ahead of them to a
point behind the plane. As if that were not enough, Flight 902 just
‘happened’ to enter Soviet air space with pinpoint accuracy to pass
directly over the critical Murmansk area. Then, faced with the
menace of a Jet Interceptor alongside the 707 with its red Soviet
star clearly visible even to many passengers, Flight 902 just forged
ahead deeper and deeper into highly sensitive Russian military
territory.
No, my friends, there was nothing accidental about the Korean air
liner’s flight into the frozen north of Russia. Those who suspect
that it was an intelligence mission are correct. But that raises two
questions that go to the heart of the matter:
What intelligence information could possibly be so urgent that the
lives of 110 people were put at risk in order to obtain it?
And why
was it necessary to resort to such a crude means of intelligence
gathering?
My friends, you will search the major media news reports
in vain in looking for the answers to these two questions; and your
sworn public servants, so called, in the Federal government are busy
trying to play dumb about it, so they won’t tell you. But if you
will simply review the progress of events that I have been telling
you about over the past seven months, you will be able to understand
what happened without any difficulty.
The events leading up to the Korean Air Liner incident began seven
months earlier to the day on September 20, 1977. At about 4:00 a.m.
local time on that date a newly operational Soviet Killer Satellite
destroyed an American Spy Satellite over the northern Russian town
of Petrozavodsk. The Killer Satellite involved was Cosmos 929, the
first in a fleet of manned Cosmos Interceptors which destroy targets
by means of charged Particle Beam Weapons. The American Spy
Satellite erupted into an immense fireball as it exploded in space.
The display was so spectacular that it was seen as far away as
Helsinki, Finland, and described as a jellyfishlike UFO in news
reports here.
Last September in Audioletter No. 26 I described this
first destruction of an American Spy Satellite in more detail. And
on October 4, 1977, just a few days after I revealed the existence
of operational Soviet Killer Satellites in Audioletter No. 26,
Defense Secretary Harold Brown held a press conference at the
Pentagon. He stunned everyone by confirming the newly operational
Soviet capability in Killer Satellites; but he refused to say
anything about how they worked, so many reporters have speculated
incorrectly that they are of an old explosive, unmanned design.
During October, as I reported in
Audioletter No. 27, the Soviet Union launched six more Cosmos
Interceptors into orbit. All around the world they began blasting
American Spy Satellites, and during October 1977 strange reports of
fireballs in the sky peppered the news. Meanwhile, virtually the
entire Soviet Submarine Fleet was deployed in attack positions
around the United States to discourage any American effort to
retaliate for the destruction of our Spy Satellites. By early
November the situation with our Spy Satellites was becoming
critical, and Soviet military pressure on the controlled Carter
administration was building fast. On November 18, 1977, the Voice of
America was used to hurl a war threat at Russia over the Spy
Satellite crisis which I quoted in part in Audioletter No. 28. A
pre-emptive American attack on the Soviet Union was being seriously
considered by the Carter administration, but once again the
overwhelming power of the Soviet Navy was used to stop that idea in
its tracks.
On January 24, 1978, Cosmos 954, the
mysterious Soviet Nuclear Satellite, crash-landed in Canada. As I
explained that month in Audioletter No. 30, Cosmos 954 was the very
Killer Satellite that had been used four months earlier in the
Battle of the Harvest Moon. But few people paid much attention a
week later when Cosmos 929, the very first operational Soviet Killer
Satellite, returned to earth on February 2, 1978. Meanwhile, as I
reported in Audioletter No. 31, more than 30 Soviet Cosmos
Interceptors equipped with Particle Beam Weapons were in orbit
patrolling the earth by then.
Last month, as I called to your attention in Audioletter No. 32, the
Kremlin repeated its SALT II surrender ultimatum to the United
States. It was March 27, six months to the day after America lost
the Battle of the Harvest Moon and Gromyko delivered the first SALT
II ultimatum at the White House. The official Soviet newspaper
Pravda delivered the ultimatum using the language of diplomacy, and
the jumpy Carter administration once again verged on panic.
Only two
days later it was announced that Secretary of State Vance would meet
with Soviet Foreign Minister Gromyko to talk about SALT II, perhaps
in Geneva; but in the end Vance was forced to make his pilgrimage
hat in hand to the fountainhead, Moscow. By the time of the initial
announcement of a planned Vance-Gromyko meeting, Leonid Brezhnev No.
2 was off to the Soviet far east in company with Defense Minister
Marshal Dmitry Ustinov. Brezhnev No. 2 is the ceremonial double who
has been taking the place of the real Brezhnev in public functions
beginning a few weeks after the real Brezhnev’s death in Moscow on
January 7, 1978.
It is now Ustinov who is the strongest man in the Kremlin.
Ustinov is the new Khrushchev allowing others to present the image
of power while he is consolidating his own leadership behind the
scenes. My friends, the use of doubles in politics and diplomacy is
scarcely ever suspected by the public. After all, we are the ones
who are supposed to be fooled by it; but at the diplomatic level it
is not an uncommon practice at all, and when a double is detected a
diplomatic tradition is not to comment about it in any way. To do so
would be seen as interference in the internal affairs of another
country—something for which the Soviet Union has no tolerance. So
even though Secretary of State Cyrus Vance and others know Brezhnev
No. 2 is a double, they simply go along with the charade. Can you
imagine?
During the far eastern trip by Brezhnev No. 2 and Ustinov, disputed
border regions between the Soviet Union and China were visited.
Rousing speeches to Soviet troops were used to extract shouted
pledges from the troops to protect the motherland, but China was
only partially the target of all this. On April 7 Brezhnev No. 2
made a speech aboard a cruiser in the port of Vladivostok dwelling
not on China but on the United States. The Carter administration was
accused of vacillation and inconsistency in the SALT II
negotiations, and the point was made that by stalling the United
States was on the verge of losing the chance altogether for a SALT
II agreement. When American Intelligence analysts heard that, they
shuddered.
SALT II is secretly intended to be America’s surrender
treaty through unilateral disarmament. The only alternative to
surrender under an ultimatum is war itself, and Brezhnev No. 2’s
words had not been chosen lightly. After the Vladivostok speech he
turned momentarily toward Ustinov for a nod of approval, and he got
it. It was increasingly clear that the Vance trip to Moscow was
taking on an either/or significance. Either Vance would find a way
to continue stalling without raising excessive Soviet anger or he
would have to sign on the dotted line. If possible, delay is wanted
by those who are controlling the United States government because
Operation Desk Top has been re-activated.
In January 1977 I revealed that the CIA had planted a fleet of
Undersea Super Missiles on the floor of the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans but that they had begun leaking and becoming disabled one by
one. In one instance after I revealed this, the leakage
poisoned whales in the ocean east of Florida, and they began
beaching themselves to die in great numbers near Jacksonville,
Florida. Today the entire original fleet of CIA Undersea Missiles
are defunct but Operation Desk Top, which originally planted these
missiles in the sea, has been reactivated and a new fleet of
Undersea Missiles is being planted. This is being done under cover
of drilling off the East Coast for oil. Many of the drilling
operations going on there now are genuine; but Exxon, the oldest and
most tightly controlled of all Rockefeller corporations, is being
used in Operation Desk Top. In August 1976 when the Soviet
Underwater Missile Crisis was secretly in progress, Exxon set the
whole oil industry abuzz by bidding fantastic amounts in order to
control large sections of the Atlantic oil field now being explored.
Now, Exxon is using the Glomar Pacific
Drilling Ship in connection with Operation Desk Top. The Glomar
Pacific is a sister ship to the famous Glomar Explorer—the Howard
Hughes mystery ship, so-called, which was used in the original
Operation Desk Top. So the American strategy is to keep buying time
in hopes that the new fleet of CIA Undersea Missiles and other ad
hoc actions can be completed in time to counter the crushing
military power of Russia. But remembering the nightmare days of last
fall following the Battle of the Harvest Moon, the Soviet words of
late suggested that any further delay by Vance in Moscow could be
the last straw. It was concluded that for Vance to know how to play
it, he would have to be provided with up-to-the-minute intelligence
on the Soviet military-alert status while the talks were under way.
If it were found that the Soviet forces were in a posture of
readiness to launch an attack, Vance would have no choice but to
agree in principle to the secret surrender provisions of SALT II;
but if Soviet forces were in a lower alert posture, he was to
continue stalling with just enough concessions to avoid a total
deadlock.
A year ago there would have been no
problem in providing Vance with this crucial “Go” versus “No Go”
intelligence information, because a year ago the United States still
had a network of Spy Satellites in orbit. Now, we don’t. I can now
reveal that the orbital fleet of the Soviet Cosmos Interceptors has
finished the job of eliminating America’s Spy Satellites that can
make observations in the Soviet Union. We have not retaliated
because we dare not. We no longer have the ability to detect Soviet
ICBMs at the moment of launch, so any ICBM missile attack will
produce only the much shorter warning provided by our Early Warning
radar network; and we can no longer watch troop movements and other
military activities continuously through out the Soviet Union. So it
was clear that a special reconnaissance flight would have to be
flown in order to provide the intelligence Vance needed in Moscow.
But the advanced air defenses of the Soviet Union can now shoot down
any western reconnaissance aircraft, including even the RS-71 which
flies 20 miles high at three times the speed of sound. The only
chance was to use an airplane the Russians might refrain from
shooting at—that is, a passenger airplane; and to minimize suspicion
it could not be an American plane.
As I pointed out two months ago, the disastrous aftermath of the
Battle of the Harvest Moon had brought about a major
re-thinking of the announced Carter plan to pull troops out of South
Korea. Someone suggested that this slowdown, which was already being
planned, be offered to South Korea in exchange for a South Korean
intelligence flight into Soviet territory. This plan was adopted,
and the fate of Korean Air Lines Flight 902 was sealed. On April 20,
1978, Secretary of State Vance was in Moscow. It was the first day
of his talks with Gromyko. Seemingly by coincidence, that same day
Korean Air Lines Flight 902 strayed into Soviet air space and flew
around over a tremendous concentration of Russian military
installations. By the time the 707 finally landed, American
intelligence officials had their answer—the Soviet Union was not
preparing for an immediate attack. The news was flashed to Vance in
Moscow, and the stalling proceeded according to plan. The very next
day Jimmy Carter announced a delay in the troop pullout plan for
South Korea.
The Korean Air Line incident illustrates one very important fact
that is often forgotten. Regardless of the weapons involved,
strategy is always of paramount importance and can sometimes tip the
balance against tremendous odds; and of all strategic factors,
surprise is the most powerful. The Korean 707 succeeded in
penetrating the most powerful air defense system in the world
because the Russians were caught off guard—they were not expecting
such a stunt. Just imagine, my friends, what the impact will be when
the military might of Russia is combined with surprise in the war to
come!!
Topic #3 - What I am trying to do in my tapes, my friends, is to help
enable you to interpret the present in the light of the
future. Once you understand where events are heading, and why, you
will no longer be mystified and caught by surprise by the turbulent
events of today. But no one can grasp anything about what the future
holds unless he has learned the lessons of the past. Looking at the
Republic of the United States today, some of the most vivid lessons
we should have learned from the past came out of the collapse of the
French Third Republic in 1940.
The collapse of France in the face of
Hitler’s military machine in 1940 was shocking, but it was
inevitable. The seeds of defeat had already been sown in France
during the preceding years when France refused to recognize the
reality of the threat and take action to protect herself. Like
America today, France was eaten up from within by spies; yet like
America today, France felt safe behind its Maginot line, and for
public consumption there were continuous assurances that French
military forces were adequate to maintain French security. The
ability of France to defend herself turned out to be pure fiction.
When the moment of truth arrived, the fine images and self-deception
collapsed, and with them the French Third Republic.
Today, the United States is nearing the moment of truth, following a
period of decay, self-deception and image making that parallels that
of France from 1933 to 1940. Alexander Werth has written a book
about that period titled “THE TWILIGHT OF FRANCE” published in New
York by Fertig in 1966. In the introduction D. W. Brogan wrote the
following words, and I quote:
“That Francewas beaten in 1940 was
not surprising, only a miracle could have prevented that; but
not only had the world come to expect miracles of France, the
world was dazzled by the victory of 1918.”
And I quote again:
“The French defeat was not
surprising; what was surprising was the failure to preserve the
fruits of victory—those minimum guarantees of French security.”
Like France in 1940, the United States
today is basking in the afterglow of victory long since dead; and
like France in 1940, we have failed to preserve minimum guarantees
for our own security. In fact, America has slipped even farther than
France because under the guise of Arms Limitation we have shut down
air defense systems, military bases and navy installations, and
otherwise abandoned the defense of our own homeland. Historians are
unable to find any precedent in history for such suicidal action by
a great power. The twilight of the United States has now guaranteed
that it is humanly impossible for the United States either to turn
aside or to win a war with the Soviet Union. Only a miracle could do
that, but we as a nation do not deserve a miracle. Instead of the
faith in God that built the United States, most Americans now put
their faith in the United States itself as if it were a godlike
being that could never go wrong and never be defeated.
In the midst of the Moscow meetings this month between Vance and
Gromyko, a Soviet spokesman reiterated for the last time in clear
terms that this was America’s last chance to sign a SALT II treaty;
and despite the seeming improvement in the tone of the talks and
regardless of the seeming Soviet willingness to keep talking about
SALT II, this was America’s last chance to surrender by that route.
The Russians know that the controlled Carter administration is
stalling for time, they know about Operation Desk Top and the other
ad hoc efforts to find some military threat of significance to aim
at the Soviet Union, and they know about the Rockefeller moves to
try to turn China into a credible deterrent—but it is all too little
and too late.
The Kremlin has no intention of allowing these
desperate maneuverings to bear fruit, but plans to cut them short
with war on Soviet terms and at a time chosen by the Soviet Union.
Since the end of the Moscow talks on April 22, 1978, the Kremlin has
committed itself to a step-by-step clearing of the decks for war.
There is no rigid timetable but there are definite steps planned.
The intention is to complete as many as possible before launching
war against the United States so that it will be possible to
concentrate fully on America’s conquest when the time comes.
Even so, the Soviet Union stands ready for war at any moment. Very
important to the Kremlin is a propaganda campaign which has already
started to get the Russian people ready for war. The Soviet Union is
going out of its way to seem reasonable and constructive about arms
control in particular while the United States is being painted as
uncooperative and threatening. Another top priority has to do with
Soviet invasion preparations in Canada and Mexico which I described
last month. After the initial surprise nuclear attack, the Soviet
Union wants to be ready to mobilize its troops, tanks, artillery,
and weapon caches quickly for invasion across our northern and
southern borders.
There is also the major matter of Red China over
which a tug of war has erupted between the Soviet Union and the
United States. This is so important that two days ago Brezhnev No. 2
sent a Deputy Foreign Minister to Peking for talks about the border
dispute. In the days ahead China will be increasingly the focus of
attention by both sides, but the sleeping giant should have been
left alone, because the pressures and inducements now being showered
on China by the Rockefeller interests are tending to make China more
revisionist and therefore more similar to Russia in political
thinking. So, unwittingly, our Secret Masters are helping to bring
Russia and China closer together, not farther apart.
As war approaches, the United States will be plagued increasingly by
sabotage and by acts of geophysical warfare—such as floods, storms,
and artificial earthquakes, especially in California. But the
biggest surprise in store for America in the coming war are the
Cosmospheres now hovering over our heads. Unlike the United States
in recent years, the Soviet Union has never forgotten that quantity
can be just as important as quality in a weapons system; and in
preparation for the coming conflict, the number of Cosmospheres
deployed world-wide and especially over the United States began
mushrooming early this month.
Based on my intelligence information
as of April 26, two days ago, there are two hundred sixteen—repeat,
216 - Soviet Cosmospheres armed with Particle Beam weapons now
hovering over locations throughout the United States. There are nine
(9) over the Washington, D.C. area alone, three (3) each over New
York City, Roanoke, Va., and Phoenix, Arizona. Also there are
Cosmospheres located over military installations, dams, state
capital cities and other major cities. Presently they are most
heavily concentrated in the northeast area of the United States, but
there are twelve (12) each over California and Texas, and nine (9)
over Kansas. The Carter administration knows all too well how close
we are to war; that is why we are hearing more and more about a
possible national emergency, gas rationing, etc. Congress knows too
but they, like the Executive branch, refuse to tell you the truth.
As citizens of the United States, we are now just like the trusting
passengers of Korean Air Lines Flight 902 - we are just going along
for the ride, trusting our pilots in Washington; and even when we
see dramatic and disturbing signs that something is terribly wrong,
we as a people refuse to accept the responsibility left to us by the
Founders of our Republic. Instead of picking up the Constitutional
tools that were left to us to prevent disaster, we react like the
passengers on the Korean plane who wondered why the sun was suddenly
behind them instead of ahead of them. We think it must be all right,
surely they must know what they are doing; but, my friends, our
Republic is now in the hands of men who don’t know what they are
doing.
They know all about lies, intrigue and trickery, but they know
nothing about honest leadership nor do they care about it. And
so the twilight of the Republic of the United States of America is
deepening before our very eyes. We have turned away from the light
of Freedom that comes only from God, and we are flying into the
darkness of war.
Until next month, God willing, this is Dr. Beter. Thank you, and may
God bless each and every one of you.
