A FOREIGN AFFAIRS LETTER

Days of Reckoning as 1989 Ends

Alain Besancon, of the French, usually pro-Common Market weekly, UEXPRESS, perceived a year ago that Europe was on the threshold of changes. He wrote on February 26, 1988 : "Gorbachev's strategy consists of two constants . The first is to disarm the West, since it is obvious that the overarming practiced by Brezhnev is ruinous and useless . The second is to get himself equipped, which is to say, armed by that same West." In November-December 1989 we told how Andropov, with the information gathering machinery of the KGB, appraised the state of affairs in the red bloc and realized the choice was a disaster or a change of tactics. In the West a group of dreamers was working to strip nations of their sovereignty and make the world a single state. As Rowan Gaither, the President of Ford Foundation, admitted in 1953, it would be under one government in which the West "could be comfortably merged with Soviet Russia." Leninists planned world conquest through subversion and force. We told how Andropov groomed a protege who would make a U-turn and con the West into taking his bloc into the new world order. Communism could then take over the packaged world at its leisure . The boss of the KGB could not make the Uturn. Even Cyrus Vance would not have believed him. All he could do was prepare the man who would do it. Another hard-line dodderer had to have his period at the top while the terrain was being prepared. Constantin Chernenko died on Sunday, April 10, 1985, and in his first speech before the Central Committee of the CP of the Soviet Union the following day, Gorbachev said, "We will follow firmly Lenin's policy of peace and pacific coexistence but all must know that we will never make any compromise with the interests of our country or those of our allies." When he let the communist regimes of Poland, Hungary, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria and Rumania fall in 1989, it was in the long-range interests of Russia and her allies as he saw them, for communism is patient. TO EUROPE'S MOST INTELLIGENT ANALYSTS THERE WAS NOTHING SURPRISING ABOUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING . Red economies were in tatters . But the Brussels one-worlders had been beckoning to them for years. A cheap road to world domination, such as Lenin never dreamed of, was theirs for the taking .

Feelings of nationality, which Adlai Stevenson castigated in Harper's magazine of July 1963 and which the one worlders in Brussels denounce, were tearing Russia apart. All Moscow had to do was let her captive satellites have the appearance of nationality in a federated Europe which utopians dishonestly pictured as only a Common Market. In time they would still be under Russia.

Canossa . He was received as an honored head of a civilized state. Two days later he met President Bush in Malta and on December 6 it was President Mitterrand's turn in Kiev. France's socialist President Mitterrand was also President of the European Council to which Mr. Gorbachev is demanding Russia's place in the "Common European home ." The question the West should be asking is, what made Gorbachev quit storming at Reagan and suddenly encourage break-ups that would look like Soviet defeats?

GORBACHEV DID NOT HAVE TO STAND IN THE SNOW WHEN HE WENT TO MEET POPE JOHN PAUL II ON NOVEMBER 1 . It was no trip to

ued. Reagan held firm while Sam Nunn and a hostile congress did their worst. On December 1, 1988, General Daniel Graham, of the SDI office, sent out a desperate appeal for help. "We are in grave trouble . We have a National Security Chief coming in who says he `sees virtually no prospect of building a significant and effective shield inside this century."' What was important was that Gorbachev believed it was possible for us but not for Russia, and that is why his U-turn was made .

THE BEST EXPLANATION OF HOW IT WAS BROUGHT ON WAS PROVIDED BY MONSIEUR RAYMOND BOURGINE'S MONTHLY SPECTACLE DU MONDE OF DECEMBER 1989. "In
March 1983, Ronald Reagan made a decision that changed the course of events : The Strategic Defense Initiative . It cost barely five billion dollars a year, later reduced. Zbday less than 1 .5% of the U.S. military budget and less than 1% of the gross national income. But the SDI was turned over to a scientist of exceptional quality: General Abramson, whose team made technological breakthroughs in a number of areas . . . Gorbachev reacted at first by unleashing a bitter campaign against the theory of the SDI, and against Reagan himself, through all the fronts of the KGB. "Moles" manipulated large sections of the American scientific community into increasing denunciations of the SDI, which, according to them, was absurd, because it could never make America's skies leakproof, and dangerous since it would provoke the Russians. Reagan stood firm and was re-elected . "Gorbachev took stock of the situation. New `intelligent arms' were making Russia's classical arsenal obsolete while its upkeep was ruining the country. At that moment he changed his game. Just as Reagan had to put over his economic and military revolution against most of the American establishment, so Gorbachev had to fight the Marxist hierarchy. The `kroumirs,' men who had grown old in the mental habits of 'scientific socialism,' waiting for communism's `materially inescapable' victory over capitalism, which, suddenly the KGB itself revealed as a defeat ."

THE MOST REALISTIC GORBACHEV-WATCHERS IN EUROPE HAVE NO DOUBT ABOUT THE ANSWER . REAGAN'S STRATEGIC DEFENSE INITIATIVE MADE GORBACHEV TURN FROM ABUSE TO APPEASEMENT. Russia had been work-

ing on a "star wars" project since 1966 with no success . She had tried laser weapons, particle beams, ABM kinetic energy systems, and computer and sensor technology combinations in search of a weapon that would enable her to shoot down incoming ballistic missiles . But research was too costly and the gap between American technology and Moscow's could not be bridged quickly enough by theft. When Reagan introduced his "star wars" program Moscow mobilized the western press, intellectuals and pseudo scientists to ridicule him and argue that it would not work. Russia's agents stopped at nothing to torpedo the program and Gorbachev frightened our allies with threats of nuclear war if we contin-

television viewers had a chance to study during her trial, was the more dangerous of the two . She pulled her husband in from the balcony as the mob booed him when he tried to work his oratorical magic for the last time, on Friday, the 22nd. According to a reliable source, the critical moment came that morning as Ceausescu was about to sign a paper ordering General Nicolai Militaru, who was known to have KGB connections, to take command of the Bucharest military region and suppress the revolt . His hand, holding the pen, was arrested in mid-air when word was delivered that Militaru and his troops had joined the people. Over Ceausescu's face came the look of a man who was stunned. In that split second he realized that Gorbachev had ordered the military to let him fall. The miles of escape tunnels under the city were useless at a time like this, except as hide-outs and attack routes for his personal killers. The wife with the cruel mouth, in a country that has been the crossroad of conquerors for centuries and acquired the vices but few of the virtues of any of them, learned an important lesson from the Turks. The fierce janissaries of Turkey's sultans were slaves taken as a form of tax from their Christian parents when they were children . They knew no other family than the state. The "padi Shah" was their father and the soup kettle their mother. It was Elena's idea that the secret police, the dreaded and reviled Securitate, be recruited young, from orphanages, and given the same training as their savage pit-bull dogs. They knew no human feelings or parental tenderness. Fanatically loyal to Ceausescu, the elite, known as "Directory 5", was divided into four merciless units, one under Ceausescu himself, another under Elena and a third under their 39 year-old playboy son, Nicu, who was captured while trying to escape in a car driven by an elegant woman. The fourth was a crack-force of 40,000 under

THAT IS HOW THE CHAIN OF LIBERATION MOVEMENTS WAS PERMITTED TO RUN ITS COURSE AND END WITH A HALL OF SOLDIERS CLAMORING TO HAVE THE HONOR OF EXECUTING CEAUSESCU AND HIS WIFE. The hard-faced Elena, who

Colonel Aronescu, answerable only to Ceausescu, his wife and Nicu. Another son, Valentin, had nothing to do with his father and it is hoped that he will be able to change his name and go unmolested . Nicu had already been arrested when his father tried for the last time to address the mob from the balcony of the Central Committee building on Friday, the 22nd. The angry crowd was storming the building and crying "murderer" when the Ceausescus, with two Securitate guards and two party men crowded into the white French helicopter on the roof. With the crowd shouting "Rat!" as they lifted off at 12 :15, Ceausescu ordered the pilot to take them to Snagoff, 20 miles north of Bucharest, where they had a summer home . There the two party men got off and the helicopter was on its way to the army airfield at Botini when the pilot, in radio contact with his base, told Ceausescu the government had fallen and they were spotted . He added that they were likely to be shot down. This frightened Ceausescu and he ordered the pilot to land on the road beneath them ; near Botini . From then on the last act unfolded as somewhere in Destiny the script was written. The dictator's road ended in a small stretch of ground outside the Botini barracks at 4 p.m., on Christmas day. Ceausescu began to show fright just before the end but his wife was defiant to the last. "Why are you doing this to us?" she demanded of a soldier, "I was a mother to you." "What kind of a mother were you?" he shouted. "You killed our mothers." A few seconds later a burst of shots rang out. The last photographs were taken and the two were buried in an unmarked grave. A last word of warning. Don't place your hopes too high on a new and democratic Rumania. Even if corruption and conniving were not a natural part of its semi-Balkan way of life, the temporary government composed of poets, intellectuals and disaffected generals cannot begin to cope with the mess Ceausescu left behind him . An elderly Hungarian observed to me one day in Cluj, "Rumania was old Dacia, the prison colony of the Romans. The descendants of these people and gypsies form the population of Rumania, and of the two the gypsies are

the more honest." Difficult days and disillusionment are ahead. If there are border changes, Transylvania, with two million Hungarians, should go back to Hungary, from whom it was taken after World War I . (My Ethiopian collection is in the Museum of Ethnography, in Cluj, a scene of the recent fighting, placed there on loan in July 1936, when I left to go to Spain .) There has been the usual criticism of the army for executing Ceausescu and his wife instead of bringing them back to Bucharest for trial. Those familiar with the situation agree it was for the best . Some express the opinion that it was to prevent them from talking and bringing as many down with them as they could. This was a factor, for under a man who regarded any criticism as treason, no one near him could live without flattering. Another reason for immediate execution was that, as in the case of Diem and Nhu in Vietnam, as long as Ceausescu and his wife were known to be alive, no one with any role in the uprising would be safe from the thousands of faceless secret police at large and ready to do anything to turn the tide. (In the case of Diem and Nhu, two of the five generals who led the coup voted to send the President and his brother into exile. Two voted for execution lest secret police assassinate them and put the brothers back in power. The deciding vote for execution was cast by a general who betrayed his Emperor in 1954 for the favors of Madame Nhu and was dropped by her in April 1955 when she turned her charms on a charge d'affaires in the US embassy, to cut the ground from under the feet of Ambassador Lawton Collins, who had been called home for consultation .) PRESIDENT RAFSANJANI WAS FURIOUS THAT HIS SERVICES DID NOT KNOW CEAUSESCU WAS ABOUT TO FALL, WHEN HE FETED THE DICTATOR IN TEHERAN FIVE DAYS BEFORE THE EXPLOSION. He should French not have been surprised . Intelligence did not know about it either. French is the lingua franca in Rumania where educated Rumanians are imbued with French culture . As a result, for years Rumania was France's window in

page

the iron curtain, through men high in the Rumanian services who hated communism and their President . One night in November 1980 the Intelligence chiefs of the leading communist countries, with the exception of Poland, were convoked to a secret meeting in Bucharest by the Russian Defense Minister, Marshal Dimitri Ustinov. Polish uprisings had to be stopped before they could get out of hand. Ustinov came directly to the point : the Polish Pope must be eliminated . East German and Bulgarian chiefs agreed. Hungarian and Rumanian Intelligence leaders were reticent and tried to squirm out. They wanted nothing to do with it. In the end Ustinov felt he had a consensus and decided to go ahead. Thirty hours later details of the meeting were in the hands of Count Alexander de Marenches, the head of French Intelligence, who had the rank of Colonel . The information he had was too "hot" to put on paper . Above all, his Rumanian "mole," a Catholic and high enough to get such information, had to be protected. So Count de Marenches sent two men with a verbal message to the Vatican . The Pope refused to take it seriously and said if his time had come he was prepared to die. A few months later, Monsieur Mitterrand, the socialist candidate for the presidency, asked Colonel de Marenches if he would remain in service in the event of a socialist victory. The colonel replied: "Yes, as long as there are no communists in the government ." Communist votes put Mitterrand in power so three had to be given cabinet posts and Colonel de Marenches resigned. All papers incriminating his Rumanian agents were destroyed and the agents refused to risk having anything to do with the new socialist government . That is why France did not know the Rumanian blow-up was coming. One important French personality knew some thing was afoot, but being in the opposition he had no line to the seat of power. Elena usually accompanied her husband on his trips abroad, but this time, when he left for Teheran on December 18, she remained in Bucharest . It was a sure sign that a storm was brewing.

pages. A number of lessons are to be learned from the vote of the General Assembly in the United Nations . Though Noriega was a killer and a poisoner of the world's youth through drugs, no LatinAmerican country was ready to vote against him. All the free world, even the Latin-American countries, are faced with the drug problem, but only Britain put principles before business, votes, and sentiments to stand by the United States . This brings up the long overdue question of Jeanne Kirkpatrick's judgment and qualifications for any of the positions into which occult forces have pushed her. Mrs. Kirkpatrick opposed Britain's action in the Falklands on grounds that supporting Mrs . Thatcher would make America lose the friendship of Latin-America. Had she had her way, Margaret Thatcher's government would have fallen, and LatinAmericans would have liked the U.S. - for a week. But how did a woman with the values of Jeanne Kirkpatrick rise to a position where she could come within a hair's breath of toppling an ally and putting Britain in the hands of men like Neil Kinnock and the laborites who all but ruined England? Surely there are competent and intelligent aspirants to pre-eminence in America. Or is membership in a political-financial masonry run by people like David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski a prerequisite for high position? A study of the European end of the Trilateral Commission would lead one to believe so.

THESE AND MANY OTHER QUESTIONS WILL HAVE TO BE CONSIDERED BY AMERICANS AS 1990 AND THE PLANS OF THE MEN IN BRUSSELS UNFOLD. While Eastern Europe

was disintegrating under the feet of the two world leaders as they met in Malta in early November, Francois d'Orcival asked his readers of VALEURS ACTUELLES : "At a moment when the East is breaking up, and making Gorbachev seem glorious in the process, is the victorious West not psychologically disarming itself?" It would seem so . Irwin Stelzer wrote

in the London SUNDAY TIMES that Mikhail Gorbachev arrived in Malta in the weakest bargaining position of any world figure since Churchill went to Yalta. Yet the Soviet President got what he wanted from America, gave nothing, and was applauded by the world for his farsighted generosity. He refused to adopt currency and price reforms, but Bush gave him what he needed most: an offer to end the American ban on government guarantees for investments in Russia. We are back to where we were in 1958 when Leo Cherne, the "economic authority" and perennial civilian advisor to CIA, was holding meetings to push governmentinsured investments in Vietnam. Few western papers reported it when Gorbachev's top economic adviser, Abel Aganbegyan, declared: "He (Gorbachev) does not seek capitalist free markets, but a rejuvenated system of socialism ." Discussing the possibility of East Germany entering the European Community, the London DAILY TELEGRAPH of January 7, 1988, asked a year ago : "Is German unity the ace in Gorbachev's pack?" None of the name writers on America's mass-circulation newspapers have made a point of it, but after Gorbachev's rise the glorification of laborers and calls for workers of the world to unite suddenly ceased. The people Russia is now courting are businessmen and bankers. NATO Intelligence services are complaining that West Germany is gaining a windfall of information on Russia's increase in military strength and espionage as they debrief East German agents but are not sharing it with their allies . The dollar lost a fifth of its value on Europe's bourses as the year drew to a close, either because a package of nations manipulated it or the United States Treasury was pushing it down as a form of devaluation. Any short term gain in exports will be offset by the conviction it will give foreigners that America is.on the skids. Peregrine Worsthorne, of the London SUNDAY TELEGRAPH, explained President Bush's call for speeding up European integration as a desire to get American forces "out" of Europe . More

likely Mr. Bush is influenced by those anxious to bring America into the Europe Jacques Delors and the one-worlders are promoting, a Europe of federal states with one money, a central bank and a constitution that will supersede our own. Security forces were put on the alert all over the world as the `80s drew to a close and will remain that way indefinite ly. There is every indication that Shiite terrorists backed by Syria and Libya are planning a new campaign of indiscriminate bombings in an attempt to free prisoners serving long terms in the West. There has been good news of recent weeks, but the year ends with most of the world united only in a crusade against South Africa. The intellectuals who worked to destroy America's will to win in Vietnam are blasting Hong Kong and Britain for being unable to take the boat people they left nothing undone to make homeless . Gregory Peck, whom the London SUNDAY TELEGRAPH of January 13, 1974, hailed as "the quiet American crusader" for helping finance a film to help the Hanoi cause, is strangely silent . And John Le Carre, who used the dollars his books earned in America to help American deserters and draft dodgers get to Sweden, is helping no Vietnamese orphans to find a home. Neither are any boat people youngsters being comforted by Jane Fonda, who did all she could to make them orphans? After the Washington officials who imposed limitations on our Generals, the American who more than any other should be helping the people in Hong Kong's camps is Mike Mansfield, who called Vietnam's religious sect armies nothing but anti-communist mercenaries. (See Harpers' Magazine of January 1956.) THE STORY OF THE PEOPLE WHO FLED VIETNAM IN ROTTING BOATS IS A STAIN ON AMERICA, but it was Hong Kong the world criticized on December 12 when 200 riot police entered the Vietnamese detention center in the dead of night and bundled 51 screaming refugees, 43 of them women and children, into waiting cars. Their tears bore witness to the fact that they preferred life behind barbed wires in Hong Kong to what was awaiting them at home.

Hanoi told Britain they would riot be punished. But what promise has Hanoi ever kept? A closed meeting decided who would be forcibly returned and not until later did people learn that Hanoi was paid to take them back . The story is sordid. But no other country would take them and Hong Kong could not absorb them . Britain has passed saturation point, unable to take the Hong Kong Chinese who counted on her. Amid the sob stories there is one Vietnamese from whom journalists, statesmen and fighters for causes avert their eyes: A sad man in a small Paris apartment who watches in silence . He is the one who is suffering. But the Son of Heaven must never complain or try to explain . To His Majesty Bao Dai those being sent to death or a lifetime of misery are his children. His people never deposed him . He was deposed by a rigged plebiscite cooked up by Colonel Edward Lansdale, General "Iron Mike" O'Daniel, Professor Wesley Fishel, of the Michigan State, and a few men in the American embassy in Saigon, with the approval of Kenneth Young in the Vietnam Section of State Department . Colonel Nicholas Thorne, the Marine Corps language specialist, confirmed the statement that His Majesty could have won that war if America had given him a thousandth of what was spent to depose him. A bill to give His Majesty a lifetime annuity as partial reparation for the wrong a handful of irresponsible meddlers did him would entail a small sum, compared to what is squandered on third world despots to whom America owes nothing.

Big things are happening in Europe . Men who proclaimed that their only aim was removal of trade barriers and cre ation of free trade are impatient to realize their dream of an ever-expanding federal world, while those who value sovereignty are in a state of euphoria over events of the past weeks. What happens in Europe in 1990 will decide the fate of America and the world . We urge you to help us reach a wider public and widen our information sources. Help us get subscriptions to H. du B.

H du B REPORTS
VOLUME 32, LETTER 9 FEBRUARY 1990

Last month we told of Nicolai Ceausescu's stupifaction when he realized that at a nod from Gorbachev the army had let him fall. He never realized that he signed his own death warrant on November 20, 1989, in his five-hour speech at the party's XIV congress. It was rambling, typical of a megalomaniac, but two short statements did not escape the watchful eyes of the Kremlin . Ceausescu said he deplored "the grave insufficiencies caused by mismanagement of the economy" and announced that "all of the accords concluded with Hitler's Germany should be condemned and annulled without exception ." The first meant that pro-Gorbachev functionaries were going to be made scapegoats. The second was a declara tion that the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact of August 23, 1939, which gave Bessarabia, now known as Moldavia, to Russia was null and void and he was going to try to take it back. This was too much for Gorbachev. A little more cultural and economic autonomy for the province wedged between Rumania and the Ukraine was acceptable . Secession, no . A plot to topple Ceausescu had been brewing, with Gorbachev's encouragement, for almost a year. Ceausescu

A New Year and a Plunge into the Great Unknown

became an embarrassment the moment Gorbachev decided communism must become respectable . If he wanted to bring his communist states into the wellfed world which obliging dreamers in Brussels were binding in a package for Russia to take over, anti-communism would have to cease to exist in the West. Gorbachev hoped to replace him with Ion Illiescu who had been his friend in the `50s, when they were in the Molotov Institute together. After the speech at the XIV party congress, what had been a subject of conversation with no timetable, became a call for an immediate coup XEtat. As for Moldavia, the seeds ofcivil war had been there, but dormant, since Stalin forced the Cyrillic alphabet on their language and gave it second rank. To understand what is happening in Moldavia a study of the region is in order.

waned, Dacia was divided into Wallachia and Bessarabia, known to the Russians as Moldavia, and a seesaw struggle for possession started between the Russians and the Turks . On July 21, 1774, a peace treaty gave Moldavia and Wallachia to Turkey on condition that they be governed leniently and that Russia could intervene, if necessary, to protect the Christians . In 1810 Moldavia and Wallachia were occupied by the Russians and only Napoleon's march on Moscow prevented them from going further. The Turks were tired of war and on May 28, 1812, let Russia have Bessarabia for the sake of peace. As for the people, invaded by conqueror after conqueror and taking on traits of all of them, some historians regard their corruption and accept that they acquired the vices of all and the virtues of none . On August 19, 1858, Moldavia and Wallachia became united principalities and on February 5, 1862, they merged to form Rumania. Four years later, on April 14, 1866, Prince Charles of HohenzollernSigmaringen became their King under the name of Carol I. His most important act was a secret treaty with Austria, of which he never informed his government. World War I came and on October 10, 1914, Carol died of a broken heart because his government refused to honor the treaty for which he had given his word. His nephew, Ferdinand, succeeded him and on August 27, 1916, declared war on Austria, only to be defeated when the Germans and Austrians invaded Moldavia . By mid-January of 1917 the Kaiser's Army held most of Rumania's wheat and oil producing areas and on May 7, 1918, King Ferdinand was forced to make peace. But one day after the November 11th armistice he re-entered the war on his own and occupied Hungary's rich province of Transylvania. By April 1919 his armies were in Hungary and on August 4 they took Budapest . The wars of the Balkans were of little interest to the allies . Wilson had gone home and Britain, France, Italy and Japan were unconcerned about Hungarians and Rumanians. With a stroke of a pen, they gave Transylvania and Bessarabia to

page -2-

Rumania. In the case of Transylvania it was unjust, because a third of the Hungary's population lived there, and the Rumanians never treated them fairly. In the case of Bessarabia, the Russians still called it Moldavia, and, though the people were Rumanian, having held it once, they were determined to take it back. In the mid-'30s King Carol II knew war was coming. British Laborites frightened England with posters claiming the Conservatives would prepare for war and if they did, babies would be wearing gas masks. King Carol knew it was precisely because the democracies refused to prepare that war was coming to them, so he sold the castle he owned in Bessarabia to the State as a national museum and got the money out of the country. He foresaw that Stalin would find a way to take Bessarabia with its 4.2 million people, 64% of them Rumanians. Geography and economics, not sympathy, forced Rumania into Hitler's camp . Britain's Chamberlin wanted peace, and when he refused to buy Rumanian oil and wheat or sell them arms, advising that they trade with Germany, the country's fate was sealed . The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact of August 23, 1939, gave Stalin the right to incorporate Bessarabia and North Bukovina into Russia under the old name Moldavia . King Carol II abdicated in favor of his teenage son, Michael, in September 1939 and towards the end of the war, with the help of Julius Maniu, leader of the National Peasant Party, Michael carried out a coup against the Germans and won. It opened a passage for the Russians between the Carpathians and the Black Sea and made Hitler lose the Balkans, but Stalin did not know what gratitude was. Rumania's Communist Party was insignificant . About 800 members in all, when the Red Army arrived in 1944 and recruited pro-German Iron Guard thugs to swell the ranks so they could take over the country. King Michael tried to resist but he was unaware that Churchill had made an agreement with Stalin, giving Russia a free hand in Rumania in return for leaving Greece to the British. Julius Maniu was arrested and presumably assassinated in prison, but King

page -3Michael held on until late 1947 when he abdicated to avoid a massacre . Shortime leaders passed and Rumania ended in the hands of Nicolai Ceausescu, the Stalinist shoemaker whose megalomania made him more than a tyrant . The full extent of Ceausescu's crimes will never come to light. Too many of the securitate officers sent abroad as "refugees" to liquidate his enemies have themselves disappeared into incinerators installed in certain Rumanian embassies for that purpose . While Rumania suffered, an awakening of nationalism was taking place in Moldavia. What Oswald Spengler called "institutions reared by the inarticulate wisdom of the centuries" began to raise their heads in 1988. It was a stirring of attachments to ancient roots such as Adlai Stevenson deplored in HARPER'S of July 1963. It was all the things that are sneered at by those who cry "My country, EUROPE!" The Moldavians hated the Russians but they had no desire to be under Ceausescu, so in May 1989 they formed a Moldavian Popular Front and used the new freedom of perestroika to call for the nationhood which thousands of professors are telling European youngsters they must forget. On August 27, 1989, half a million Moldavians defied the police to demonstrate in Kichinev, their capitol, for a return to their old alphabet and language . On August 31st it was granted . Gorbachev's acceptance of apparent defeats, which were really victories in his campaign to court the West, had started . Having won their first demands, the Moldavians organized a pro-slav union in partnership with railroad workers of the Ukraine and launched a strike which cut off Moldavia. When they got away with it the Azeri Moslems of Azerbaijan cut off the Christian Armenians of the NagornoKarabakh and that was the beginning of trouble which could bring about Gorbachev's fall.

THERE IS A LARGE ARMENIAN ENCLAVE IN THE NAGORNOKARABAKH PROVINCE OF AZERBAI JAN AND A SMALL MOSLEM AREA AMONG THE ARMENIANS. WHAT IS

Azerbaijan's Azeris are part of some 150 million Turkish-speaking people, dispersed over an area that covers the roof of the world, all the way to Peking. Their religion is Shi'ite Moslem, the religion of Iran. The spread of Shi'ite fanaticism is a legacy of the Carter Administration which undermined the power that held it in check. Now it is contaminating all the sects of Islam . A revival of Moslem fundamentalism is fanaticizing adepts and making converts in every Christian nation . In France an average of thirty converts a week swell the growing Moslem minority. From Sweden to Canada Moslem oil spots are spreading . They are the world's new 5th column and terrorism is their arm . Gorbachev must deal with Azeris who want to terrorize the Armenian population into a mass emigration and found a nation. At the same time he must contend with Armenians who live in fear that they will be swamped in an Islamic sea . His announcing that there will be no redrawing of boundaries will not stop a conflict that was bound to come. It is a war of hate which, like a genie conjured from a vase, cannot be confined again . Any appearance that Moscow is favoring the Christian Armenians will ignite the Islamic communities of the Soviet Union. From Iran and Turkey its sparks would reach the 2.5 million Turks and millions of Arabs, Pakistanis and Blacks in Central Europe. If he appears to favor the Moslems, the image of respectability on which admission to Europe's package of nations depends will be gone. The third solution is a mass resettlement of the two communities, with consequences no one can foresee. When he

Talk sense, Lord Gladwyn! How independent, when the commission is governed by a majority in a federation which insid ers plan to extend to Vladivostok? World government is not a guarantee of peace. Conventional war, by becoming total war, phased itself out, and world government is a sure prescription for terrorist warfare in captive nations fighting for independence and national identity when it is too late. The truth is, Monsieur Jacques Delors and the successors of Colonel Edward House and Jean Monnet want new stars on their blue flag more than they want freedom. In France the surrender of sovereignty to EUROPE has created a situation where 40% of France's laws stem from Common Market directives, rather than the National Assembly. The same must hold true for EUROPE'S other provinces . Citizens who oppose their government's acceptance of Hong Kong Chinese or Vietnamese boat people do not pause to reflect that the free movement of peoples granted by the Treaty of Rome will give all the hordes between London and the Bering Straits the right to enter their country without passports in search of an easier life. It is the thought of such an invasion, on a smaller scale, that is making the prospect of China's 1997 takeover of Hong Kong a nightmare.

FEBRUARY 1990

BRITAIN'S DILEMMA IN HONG KONG IS SIMPLE . Some six million

Chinese have spent their lives believing they were secure because they were living under the British flag. They saw no reason to worry. Hong Kong had been British since the 26th of January, 1841, when a British naval force landed on the island whose name means Fragrant Harbor and planted the British flag at Possession Point, in what is now the island's western

district . Possession passed from de facto to de jure on August 29, 1842, when China ceded the island and Kowloon, on the mainland, to Britain in perpetuity. On June 26, 1843, British possession was ratified by the Treaty of Nanking, and Sir Henry Pottinger became Hong Kong's first governor. As the colony grew and more land was needed, Britain purchased a 99-year lease on the new territories, behind Kowloon. This is the land legally due to return to China with the expiration of the lease in 1997 . The first recorded talk of Hong Kong's return to China, in spite of the in perpetuity treaty of 1842, was when Roosevelt spent November 22 to 26 with Chiang Kai-shek in Cairo in 1943 and told him that if he would take the Crown Colony back after the war, America would support him. Neither John T. Flynn, in his excellent book on Roosevelt, nor Dr. Anthony Kubek, in HOW THE FAR EAST WAS LOST, men tions this, and Harvard's William L . Langer ignores it in his Encyclopaedia of World History. Dr. Kubek observed that Roosevelt's attitude towards Great Britain and Churchill changed as the Teheran Conference approached and added that the sick President began to show a "definite anti-English bias ." He noted "the President's apparent presumption that the threat to world security lay in British imperialism rather than Russian or international communism," yet, perhaps because he felt it inconsequential, he failed to mention how urgently the President urged Chiang Kai-shek to seize Hong Kong. And this was important. It led to Chiang's estranging the British to a point that they saw little choice between him and the cpmmunists when he needed them . Anti-colonialism had become a mania with the President, and because it was premature the results were ghastly for the world. Hong Kong Chinese were happy with the status quo. It was to escape the corruption and injustices of Chinese rule that they or their ancestors had gone there.

UON'T LET THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION CENSOR

In 1957, when the six-nation nucleus for a global state was formed as an economic union, warnings that the one worlders within it would destroy sovereignties and impose regulations over national parliaments were ignored. Now the London advertising firm of Saatchi and Saatchi has put out the above poster after their own bull was gored. It is the first public warning that Moscow's breakaway states may be exchanging red oppression for EURO PEAN restrictions, and the price of the posters came high. A few days after they appeared on Brussels billboards the bottom dropped out of Saatchi and Saatchi stock and by February 23 headlines in THE TIMES of London announced "Saatchi falls to new

The balance of political and economic power is moving Eastward as the two Germanies unite and pieces of a new mosaic fall into place . The new German colossus is turning eastward and those who used to barter Soviet oil for what they wanted in the West will be using Deutsche Marks. The West being soft and the East aggressive, the power that oppressed Eastern Europe will end up imposing its will from London to Vladivostok. Europeans were told that nation states are the cause of war. A EUROPEAN COMMUNITY, in doing away with sovereignties, would end customs

MR. ROBERT KILROYSILK WROTE IN THE LONDON TIMES OF FEBRUARY 9, 1990, THAT HISTORY WILL FIND GORBACHEV A FOOL, A MAN WHO UNLEASHED THE DOGS OF WAR. And he may well be correct .
"History," he said, "will pronounce Gorbachev a decent but a weak man, a misguided fool, an incompetent politician, responsible for more misery, destitution, destruction and death than Stalin or Hitler. With all his political and military power, he did not prepare for the overnight removal of repression. Instead he washed his hands of his political problems and leadership obligations and let loose the dogs of war, as we shall see in the next few months and years, as we vote him, not the most popular leader in Europe, but the man who put us all unnecessarily in greatjeopardy."

Why he ceased supporting the ANC's call for a South Africa under Black majority rule is explained . More important, his real objective in Germany is exposed : Demilitarization, withdrawal of German missiles, German request for Americans troops to go home, and, above all, German investments in Russia with all the technological know-how they will bring.

AS IF IN ANTICIPATION OF ROBERT KILROY-SILK'S DENUNCIATION, THE VALMONDE GROUP IN PARIS, PUBLISHERS OF SPECTACLE DU MONDE AND VALEURS ACTUELLES, WERE PREPARING A BOOK ENTITLED "1989 EN PERSPEC-

TIVE." It is in French but every French language class and research library should have it. Illustrated with documents and with every development studied, this 340page work produced under the direction of Monsieur Raymond Bourgine, one of the most astute political observers in Europe, exposes Gorbachev's aims by analyzing his acts. The result is Gorbachev as a disciple of Bismarck, dumping his colonies for a more profitable association with Germany and unleashing Islam's holy war in the process . We see why he ceased financing Syria's trouble-making, why he is permitting a million Jews a year to leave Russia (when he is taking his distance from Islam) .

tions and politicians will be hard hit as the West lowers its guard, and those who warn that communism has changed tactics but not its objective will be called "conspiracy theory kooks." Subversion was always Russia's principal arm . Military aggression, except against a country like Afghanistan, was a bluff, which America countered with her Strategic Defense Initiative. Classic war between major powers ruled itself out when it became total war against the civilian rear. The West would never launch it and Russia dared not. With total war too devastating for civilian populations to accept, a world government is not necessary for the preserva tion of peace. Its only purpose is to wrap the world in a package with a bow knot at the top. The removal of frontiers within the package will leave terrorism without borders also. Religious war, blind, fanatical, and faceless will run unimpeded in the nations that live by laws. Its soldiers wear no uniforms and they are far away when the bombs they plant in planes and crowded markets blow up . Submarines and cruise missiles are no protection against men like Abu Nidal, who Muammar Qaddafi released from supposed house arrest in early March.

Now he has found backing for a pirate radio boat from which to incite revolt.

His speeches were full of pious platitudes but no South African black has ever been as senselessly martyrized as India's 90 million untouchables .

In December 1983 Indira wangled 15 tons of heavy water out of pacifist Norway and by April 1989 had a 1,500 mile range missile capable of carrying a one-ton bomb. In late 1979, when it became common knowledge that India was making an Abomb, Qaddafi's Libyans hijacked 20 tons of orange-colored powder known as di-urinate, near the mining town of Arlit, in Niger, and sent it to Pakistan. Di-urinate is basically uranium ore milled to remove its impurities, and a Pakistani scientist named Dr. Abel Qader Khan left his job in a research laboratory in Amsterdam, to set up a plant in Pakistan .

Theirs is the most politically indoctrinated, disciplined and well organized of Europe's Moslem communities and their pole of attraction is toward Iran. France's estimated five million North Africans, counting the illegals, have over a thousand mosques into which Iran pours cassettes . Wives of the country's leaders work to make socialism irreversible by recognizing the illegals and giving all North Africans the vote. Such immigrants bring their own laws and customs with them. Their communities are a state within the state and how many wives a man has is no business of the police . In their closed world it is impossible to recruit an informer. They have their own stores, their religious libraries, and Moslem butchers who slaughter animals in a back room. With the extra-territoriality they enjoy a subculture has established its own economic system, selling products from the home country and sending their earnings back to it. The police of Europe and Britain are powerless against mobs clamoring to carry out the Ayatollah Khomeiny's death sentence on Salmon Rushdie over a book. How will any nation protect its citizens against fanatics who recognize none of their host country's laws? In a recent report we stated that Islam making is 30 converts a week in France. A correction from Paris informs us the number is thirty a day and the estimated number of French converts is a million and a half. By the year 2020 over 50 million North African Moslems will be installed in Europe with an unknown number of converts. England has over a million and half Moslems waiting to clash with Hindus, Blacks and Jews when the unconventional war comes into the open. British secret services have uncovered an underground "railway" with over a hundred stations smuggling Moslem immigrants into Britain . But why make trouble over it? After 1992 once an immigrant is in Europe he is in Britain .

tive against Monsieur Jean-Marie Le Pen in France . Syria's Hafez el-Assad shelters and uses terrorists because he plans to annex Lebanon in his dream of a greater Syria . On December 5, 1989, Assad's enemy, Saddam Hussein, of Iraq, launched an earth-to-earth nuclear missile capable of hitting Southern Europe, the Middle East, the Arab Peninsula or Russia's Caucasian chain . In any war against Israel the two will line up together, and if Israel makes a preventative strike to destroy Iraq's plant, sleeping forces in the West will hit Israel's scattered people. All of the rules of war have been changed . Within a year after Truman recognized Israel in 1948 and promised to protect her borders, Egyptian agents were financing a black Moslem movement in Harlem . For years the Moslem states were in need of help and between 1971 and `75, Mr. Paul Warnke and Mr. Clark Clifford collected as much as $570,000 as lobbyists for Algeria, the safe haven for hijackers and terrorists . Pacifist organizations and "peace schools," including the Washington School for Peace Studies where Mr. Warnke was on the faculty, preached a dishonest thesis . America must disarm and outlaw nuclear weapons lest a world war be touched off "by mistake ." There was no chance that a mistake "might" cause a world war. Russia was bluffing and America was menacing no one . Today there is no "may be" about it. Two forces are heading like locomotives for a collision . Fanatics who plant bombs and strike in the night have merged with society in the West. And the West has no opposing sleeping force. If Mr. Gorbachev no longer protects nations that make terrorism as a policy, there will be no alternative but to hit terrorism at its sources . With this thought let us consider how difficult it is to give America sound information in moments of crisis.

come as a surprise . CIA - or at least one CIA officer - was informed of it at the time, but there was no official or press reaction . Twenty four hours after James Bone's report of March 3, the TIMES carried a follow-up by Mark Hosenball, the TIMES correspondent in Washington . Hosenball said CIA had received disclosures to that effect and "concluded that the KGB was probably not involved." Actually, the KGB was involved and Hosenball was not going to miss an opportunity to show that the agency he hated had not done its job . When Hosenball arrived in London in 1969, bespectacled, long haired, and with a drooping mustache, he told William Shawcross he was writing a book on the CIA "in hopes it will contribute to the socialist revolution in the United States and the third world." In 1976 he joined forces with ex-CIA man Philip Agee to make headlines by naming CIA agents wherever they could expose them, starting with the station chief in London. With 36 pro-Hanoi organizations and Vanessa Redgrave setting up demonstrations against America, and the tragedy of the boat people yet to come, the two renegade Americans lived high. Hosenball became the star of a sensation sheet called TIME OUT, until he was expelled from England in late November of 1976 "for security reasons ." Why the TIMES took him on as its Washington correspondent is a sad reflection on England's leading newspaper. As for the statement that Soviet Russia master-minded the plot to assassinate the Pope and the CIA knew about it, Major Sheymov was correct. I was foreign affairs adviser to Congressman Larry McDonald at the time and 36 hours after Mehmet Ali Agca fired his five shots at Pope John Paul II a detailed report was on its way to Washington. Soviet Defense Minister Dimitri Ustinov called a secret meeting of Warsaw Pact intelligence chiefs and defense officers, except for the Poles,

who were Catholic, in Bucharest in late November 1980. Ustinov went directly to the point. The Pope had to be silenced . The East Germans and the Bulgarians approved but the Hungarians and Rumanians demurred. When the meeting adjourned Ustinov was authorized to hold his Turk in readiness for a mission. Rumania was France's window into the iron curtain and twenty-four hours later Count Alexandre de Maranches, the chief of French Intelligence, sent two men to Rome with a message too sensitive to put on paper. The Pope refused to heed. He said he was ready to die. There was a meeting in the congressman's office when my report arrived and a telephone call awakened me at 2:00 a.m. He said a CIA man and his friend were with him and I must tell him something . "Tell me anything, to get these men off my neck." They told him the report was (obscenity) . Two members of his staff advised him he take it seriously. If the Russian Defense Minister would personally undertake to assassinate the Pope, no Head of State was safe. I assured him the report was sound but the source could not be divulged. "If they say it is (obscenity), tell them to go to hell." Congressman McDonald was on the Armed Services Committee and because of the pressure put on him by the CIA agent and his friend the report was not put before his committee . Whether the agent withheld it from his superiors or handed it in and someone else protected the Russians, as when South Korean flight 007, carrying Congressman McDonald and 26 top men of the South Korean CIA (on the passenger list as airline employees going home on leave), was lured over Sakhalin Island and destroyed on September 1, 1983, we shall probably never know. As much as could be printed of Marshal Ustinov's Bucharest meeting was in H. du B. Report of September 1981 . Two years later the world press carried Ali Agca's statement from prison that he was Jesus Christ and concluded that he was crazy. Only a- handful of men knew it was a coded message to the KGB, on the outside.

What else can one write on the west's conduct of foreign affairs in this April of 1990? When everything one has been warning against is happening it is too late for further warnings, and too early for voters to recognize their guilt. Nations contented because they were democracies let television, organized lobbies, and advertising agencies decide their elections . No one asked who manipulated the TV stations, the lobbies and the hucksters. Men whom no one knew asked computers what a candidate should say to have labor, blacks, leftists, three eth nic bodies, and a monied religious group give him a majority. And the candidate said it. Modern man should not feel superior to Guias Germanicus, known as Caligula, who made his horse a consul. Our voters have done worse.

When he rose to power in 1985 it did not take him long to see that a seat in the front row of the common market was better than an arms race. Alexei Arbatov, his specialist at conning Americans, said in the London FINANCIAL TIMES of March 12, 1990, "I would not be surprised if there were a supranational government in Western Europe ten years after the single market of 1990, or even in the whole of Europe." And he was including Russia. Only a fool would think Gorbachev and EUROPE'S Secretary of State, AnneMarie Lizin, were not in accord long before 1987, when she sent three delegations to talk the red bloc into coming in. But first, a surgical operation had to be performed to make them acceptable . No one can say exactly when Gorbachev decided what he was going to do but the chain of events was set in motion in February 1989 when he picked up the telephone and told Sakharov his exile in Gorki was over and he was free to return to Moscow. From then on, things ran like clockwork.

Four of the Moslem states were only 10% Russian, and the Russians in them could come to terms or come home . Kazakhstan, five times the size of France and with its 45% Russian population, could be taken care of later. With the Moslem states amputated and non Slavs granted autonomy or independence, the Soviet heartland would become a Slavic fortress composed of Byelorussia, the Ukraine and Russia proper, which stretches to within sight of Alaska. These three make up 80% of Russia's territory and 79% of her 262 million population. Next problem was to make the West feel that Russians are as tame as kittens. On July 6, 1989, Gorbachev asked the 23-nation Council of Europe to make place for Russia in their common European home and the council took in 18 Russians as permanent guest observers until they would qualify as members . The dream of Jean Monnet, the promoter of the common market, was to integrate the capitalist economies with those of the communist world in a planetary administration, and it was being realized. All of the European treaties since 1945, including the Single European Act, were formed around Monnet's obsession : "The excesses of nationalism have devaluated the idea of the nation state. Make a law against nation states and decree the existence of a `European Nation'." On August 5, 1943 Monnet wrote Roosevelt : "There will never be peace in Europe if the states, reconstitute themselves on a base of national sovereignty," and in the nations that had renounced sovereignty Gorbachev saw a highway to world power. On October 13, 1989, he opened the church of the Kremlin for its first mass in 72 years, and on December 1 was blessed by Pope Jean-Paul II as a son of the Orthodox church, baptized in his youth at the request of his mother. Two days later he met President Bush in Malta. Neither the Pope nor the President were aware that he had ordered the Rumanian military to get rid of Ceausescu. Nine days later, on December 12, Secretary of State James Baker, spoke for the President in Berlin . "We are Europeans . . . While we intensify our cooperation, between ourselves as well as

page

with the nations of the East, we will create a new Europe on the base of a new Atlantism," he said. So on December 12 the two former enemies became Europeans, and the words of Rowan Gaither, the President of Ford Foundation, when he told Norman Dodd in 1953 that he was using his grant making power "to so alter life in the United States that we can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union," were coming true. By February 7, 1990, Brussels' leading morning paper, LA LIBRE BELGIQUE, which may be considered the voice of the common market, announced that EUROPE had accorded a sort of "second class relationship," less than membership but more than collaboration, to Hungary, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Rumania, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia. It did not make them immediate members, but according to article 238 of The Treaty of Rome, after meeting the terms for commerce, economic cooperation, and political reforms they would be free to come in. East Germany is in a different class. European Commission President, Jacques Delors, said that East Germany can become a member on demand. Russia, already enjoying special relationship, holds a powerful hand, and President Gorbachev, made respectable as his country's first President, can face 1992 with more popularity behind him than any leader in the West. It is unfortunate that that popularity does not exist at home. Delors and his common marketeers are lyrical over Gorbachev, because advancing him advances socialism . In Russia there is discontent and for the first time unrest and rebellion in the armed forces. Politicians and generals will not be human if they fail to fan unrest in the ranks of a force which embraces 100-odd ethnic groups, languages and nations . Only one thing is certain in Eastern Europe: Events are moving so fast there is little point in trying to influence, let alone predict what will happen in the next twelve months . There are nuclear missile bases in the rebellious Moslem states, and should there be a crisis in the Middle East, perhaps rebels who would know how to use them.

LET US TURN TO THE UNITED STATES . From the Baltic to America

those who sneered at nationalism have been proven fools. On November 9, 1989, when the Berlin wall was breached, more than Germans were turned loose. In country after country attachment to nation reared its head. The wave it created should bring a reprint of Adlai Stevenson's July 1963 Harper's magazine praise of THE HARD KIND OF PATRIOTISM, the necessity of loving the world instead of a native land . Read today, it would show the just stature of the man politicians would have given America as President.

APRIL 1990

AN UPDATE ON AMERICA SHOULD START WITH SECRETARY OF STATE JAMES BAKER'S DECEM BER 5 STATEMENT IN BERLIN : "We

are all Europeans . . . we will create a new Europe on the basis of a new Atlantism." Only a commentator in the January 1990 issue of France's SPECTACLE DU MONDE was alert enough to see the importance of what he was saying . "Here is Bush's plan. It is a TRANSATLANTIC EUROPE he is talking about. And it is very serious." It was suddenly clear why The Atlantic Institute had been maintained in its expensive Paris headquarters for so many years, and why it had been founded in the first place. H. -du B . Report of September, 1979, quoted the entry in Lord Gladwyn's diary of mid-January 1961 that he had to go to Paris for the opening of the Atlantic Institute. Sometime in 1960 Henry Cabot Lodge disappeared from Washington . Few noticed that he was gone, but there was a three year gap in his life, until President Kennedy appointed him Ambassador to Vietnam. There had been no notice in the American press that he was in Paris working with European one-worlders to set up the Atlantic Institute, which would prepare the way for America's entry into the European Community, or common market. When America came in it would become the Atlantic Community, and after the abandonment of sovereignties, Atlanticus, an ocean-spanning enlargement of the EUROPE which in 1992 will

become a nation . The Atlantic Institute was formed as the international arm of the Atlantic Council which Christian Herter founded in 1961 . Herter, it will be remembered, was a member of the coterie of oneworlders converted by Colonel E . Mandel House at the Versailles Peace Conference . With John Foster and Allen Dulles and Walter Lippman, he was House's dinner guest in the Paris Majestic Hotel on May 19, 1919 . All of House's disciples of that period surfaced in important positions in the years that followed . Jacques Rueff, the French Bilderberg member and close associate of Joseph Retinger, who persuaded Prince Bernhard to found the Bilderbergers, spent 1960 and `62 organizing the Atlantic Institute in which Henry Cabot Lodge was the American figure . (In the classified files of State Department is a report dated March 25, 1942, which says "Retinger should be treated with utmost caution. It is suspected that at some stage in his political activities Retinger has had communist connections, and it is possible that he is acting as a Soviet agent provocateur.") "In early 1962 a request to organize the Atlantic Institute was registered with the Paris police and on March 8, 1963, official approval was granted. Lodge may have been only a front in the Atlantic Institute operation, but because of his name he became director-general with Baron Paul van Zeeland as president. The members were a mixed lot : There was George Meany, the Labor boss, sitting with PaulHenri Spaak, the Belgian Prime Minister, Christian Herter, Lord Gladwyn, and a list of others spanning the social scale of the socialist one-world clique . An American researcher inquiring into the Institute's finances in 1979 was told that the Paris and Washington headquarters are maintained with the support of private individuals, foundations, industry, trade unions and eleven governments in Western Europe and North America. A less conspiratorial institute would have been asked to be more explicit. Chairman of its forty-man Board of Governors was Belgium's Baron van Zeeland . The Secretaries-General of NATO and the OECD were ex-officio board members,

APRIL 1990

and "a Research Council of distinguished scholars," un-named, advised the Board of Governors and the Institute's staff . On February 8, 1979, it was announced that the Trilateral Commission and the Atlantic Institute would merge, which was natural, since the purpose of the latter is to prepare the American public for membership in a community bound to Europe by David Rockefeller's commission . Henry Cabot Lodge in his preface to PARTNERSHIP FOR PROGRESS . A PROGRAM FOR TRANSATLANTIC ACTION, which Harper & Row published for the Atlantic Institute in the mid-sixties, said the purpose of the Trilateral Commission was "to educate and program" young politicians who would then be placed in key positions of government. Put plainly, the Trilateral Commission would pick up young politicians, teach them what to do and then ease them into positions where they would do as they were told . Lord Acton would call it a conspiracy to take over government. The Atlantic Institute and the Trilateral Commission were arms of Jean Monnet's United States of Europe, a few crystal states around which a world government would form, as he said, "to integrate the capitalist and socialist economies with those of the communist world in a planetary administration." Organizations and sub-organizations abounded in the plan to form EUROPE and then change it to ATLANTICUS . The Atlantic Assembly, which Sir Geoffrey de Freitas headed in London, was the child of Clarence Streit's old Atlantic Union. There was the Atlantic Council, set up by Christian Herter, Henry Kissinger, and Henry Fowler in 1961 with an East German spy as a consultant ; the Atlantic Treaty Association which Lord Gladwyn and Paul Henry Spaak used as an extension into NATO, which Spaak headed for a time, and the Committee for Atlantic Economic Cooperation which the Atlantic Institute founded in 1967 as an economic wing. . recognized, in his preface Cabot Lodge PROGRESS, that to PARTNERSHIP FOR interde if Americans were to be sold on pendence and sacrifice of sovereignty they

would have to be sold on the economi advantages before they would buy the political . -A strange man, this Henry Cabot Lodge who, under the microscope, seems a traitor to free men as well as his country. Born an aristocrat, he never knew manual labor in his life, but he pontificated that the right to work, meaning the right not to join a union, was a "sanctimonious ambush ." The first booklet published by The Atlantic Institute after its formation was composed of short pieces by its officers and committee members on their aims. Cabot Lodge's contribution dealt with the organization's commitment to liberating the world's colonies, most of which are starving under wealthy dictators today. Inciting and supporting revolts in the colonies of America's allies should have been none of the Atlantic Institute's business . Colonies would have become autonomous states associated with their former mother countries under educated leaders if outside forces had not been bent on creating a vacuum. There was no reason for premature decolonization, with the blood and suffering it would entail, unless destabilization of mother country and colony alike were the aim of those out to lead the subject peoples from false freedom to interdependence to supranational packaging. The early fifties provided a tragic example ofhow the selective anti-colonialists worked. A distinguished Moluccan was sent to Washington by his people to make a plea for independence before Congress and the Human Rights Commission of United Nations. His people did not want to be turned over to Sukarno simply because they had been colonized by Holland. The Moluccan, a former Dutch naval officer named Karel Nikijulu, was tortured by the Japanese because he chose to remain with the Dutch prisoners of war rather than help their captors. Karel Nikijulu was lionized, interviewed by U.S . News & World Report and received by committees in U.N.'s big building on East River. Then suddenly word came from above and all doors were closed.

A FITTING UPDATE ON FRANCE STARTS WITH THE PHOTO OF A REFLECTIVE MONSIEUR JACQUES CHIRAC IN SPECTACLE D U MONDE OF MARCH 1990 . He is contemplating a

France where half of the electorate does not bother to vote. The country is fed up with socialists but opposition leaders are not brave enough to stand up and unite . There are big questions : Is the EUROPE which Jean Monnet and his following of bankers, idealists and politicians built up, going to be a federation dominated by Germany, or a confederation of free countries, including the people of Eastern Europe? Valeurs Actuelles, the sister publication of Spectacle du Monde, warned on November 30, 1970, that Jean Monnet visualized a federal regionalized world in which all national lines would be erased as outmoded remnants of history. In the supranational system foreseen by Monnet France would be divided into twelve regions and Germany and Italy into eleven . Belgium and Holland would have two, whether people attached to the old legends like it or not. There would be forty-some regions in the new United States of Europe and Valeurs Actuelles predicted twenty years ago, "In such a system they will be able, in effect, to have their own European money, since they will have a federal government responsible for a federal economic and financial policy." On March 22, 1990, Monsieur Michel Debre, de Gaulle's former prime minister, spoke at a meeting in the St. Louis Center in Rome, Soviet Russia's captive states are embracing freedom today, he told his listeners, "but unless we are careful, the European federalists will put over an eco-

nomic and political fusion that someday will end in a revolt in the name ofliberty." Monsieur Charles Pasqua, who was minister of the interior in the Chirac government, until 1988, declared on , February 5, 1990, that the only important division separating France is between those who refuse to see the French nation disappear and those who are ready to accept it. But he was only exposing the loss of sovereignty threat . The prospect of a Germany leaning towards the East is black, and Frenchmen who love their country have no desire to see it engulfed in an Eastern-dominated superstate anymore than they have to see it swallowed by a Moslem flood. The latter danger is immediate and more certain the way things are going. Only one politician has been brave enough to face the charge of racism . Jean-Marie Le Pen, leader of the National Front, is opposed to a federal Europe but before anything else he is against the massive immigration of Moslems who cannot be assimilated and who form into fortress communities where their own laws are enforced and no French policeman dares tread . To the Eurocrats, communists, and socialists he is a racist. Citizens when polled are afraid to say they are with him and every politician to the right of the extreme socialist left is afraid to accept his support. That is why only 50% of the French electorate votes . Meanwhile the socialists in power and their militant wives fight for the vote for Moslem immigrants, legal and illegal . This is the situation in France as Eastern Europe is learning the meaning of nationalism and freedom again.

A FOREIGN AFFAIRS LETTER PARIS

' !' 2 MAY 1990 20-W Powerful Americans Undermined Sovereignties and Helped Destroy a King VOLUME 33, LETTER

H du B

REPORTS

Through the night of April 3, 1990, Belgium's 59-year-old King Baudouin struggled with his conscience in the royal palace of Laeken . For Prime Minister Wilfred Martens, the head of a coalition government of French-speaking socialists and Flemish Christian Democrats, it was politics, with socialists holding that it is the King's duty to legalize anything a socialist majority decides. Last November the socialists pushed a law through the Senate permitting abortion after twelve weeks if the fetus has very serious disorders . At the end of March it was carried through the Chamber of Representatives with a large majority and a showdown between the throne and an anti-clerical left was unavoidable. King Baudouin and the Spanish-born Queen Fabiola are devout Catholics and on Friday, March 30, His Majesty wrote the Prime Minister that he feared the law breaking Belgium's hundred year ban on abortions represented "a serious dimunition of respect for the life of the weakest." The King has suffered much and will bear forever the memory of the injustice done his father. He knew his letter would cause a crisis in the divided country, but he put it frankly to his head of government: "You will understand, I do not wish

to be involved with that law, which takes no account of the feelings of families with handicapped children ." Parliament debated through the night of Thursday, March 29 . Socialists demanded a change in the constitution and reproached their King for siding with a minority opposition. Some accused him of putting conscience before duty. In the end, the matter was settled by taking advantage of a clause in the constitution which permits the King to relinquish power for a day "if illness or other reasons prevent him from fulfilling his duties ." For 36 hours Belgium was under the rule of ministers and on April 5 a motion was passed declaring that His Majesty's inability had ceased and he would resume his constitutional powers . Some might consider it a small matter, but whatever the reader's thoughts about abortion, King Baudouin's courage in con fronting the political majority brings back a sordid chapter of history. And the fact that none of the people of the compromised nations have ever been told what their insiders did, provides an example of the power in the hands of a small but secretive group.

crisis of conscience has resurrected a ghost which those determined to destroy borders, history and traditions want to forget. The dream of creating a packaged world under a single government too large for any subject state to touch was being promoted by British utopians before World War I. Woodrow Wilson's election to the presidency of the United States gave the one-world dream a new dynamism. Wilson was the discovery and creature of Edward Mandel House who, as George Sylvester Viereck wrote, controlled the President as though he were a puppet . House planned to use Wilson to create a socialist United States in a united socialist world. While he was working to get Wilson re-elected on a promise to keep America out of the war, in 1916, he was planning how, by throwing American troops into the war and determining the outcome, he could call it a conflict "to save the world for democracy," and dominate the post-war era through Wilson. Europe's monarchies, with their dynastic loyalties and the dedication of Kings to national interests would be destroyed, clearing the way for a single world. He realized his scheme would never be acceptable to the America of that day, so he started a systematic promotion of global ism . Council on Foreign Relations records show how House began gathering followers at the Peace Conference in Paris in the spring of 1919 . He convinced them they needed facilities in their respective countries in which to coordinate their aims, and that is how the Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA) and its subsidiary bodies were formed. The Majestic Hotel was his meeting place and there he assembled John Foster and Allen Dulles, Walter Lippman and Christian Herter for a dinner on May 15, 1919. Two weeks later, on May 30, he organized a bigger dinner for

was followed by thirteen other groups around the world, including one in Soviet Russia . Men who were destined to work against national interests were selected then and elevated into positions from which they could pass the torch to appointed successors at the proper time. Robert Murphy was to join Christian Herter, Allen Dulles, Sumner Welles, the homosexual of the Roosevelt Administration, Paul Nitze, Henry Kissinger, Alger Hiss, Harry Dexter White and many others in the CFR. By the end of World War II Monsieur Jean Monnet, who had no diploma from any institute of higher learning but who had been pushed upward to make the destruction of nation states his vocation, was leading the one-world movement. His blueprint called for integration of the capitalist economies with those of the communist world in a planetary administration, and his closest associates were Paul-Henryi Spaak, the Belgian, Averell Harriman, the American, Robert Schuman, the Luxembourg-born Frenchman, and Joseph Retinger, the Pole who served throughout as Monnet's leg man. Belgium was an ideal country to serve as the core around which other states would be added, with the cloisonne of national bor ders removed. Here was the perfect nucleus for a one-world government . A hundred and fifty-year-old country, populated by two races with different languages which the spoilers could play against each other. French-speaking socialists had estranged the Flemish Catholics by their arrogance ; all that was needed to destroy the nationfabric was fanaticism and what was called "idealist" money. America furnished most of the latter. Belgium was born of an 1830 revolt against Dutch rule, and Prince Leopold of Saxe-Cobourg became the country's first King. He proved to be a skillful diplomat

page -3and was succeeded by his son, Leopold II. The second Leopold has been criticized for his administration of the Belgian Congo, but it was acceptable compared to rule by native chiefs and the mores of the time. The Congo he left could have become Africa's showplace had America's post-war mania for premature decolonization not torn down everything white rule had created . In this also Paul-Henri Spaak bears some ofthe guilt. King Albert I, remembered for his heroic resistance against the Germans in World War I, was killed in a climbing accident in 1934 and Leopold III mounted the throne. Tragedy struck when his wife, Queen Astrid, was killed in an automobile accident. By that time most intelligent statesmen could see that war was approaching, and the King called for modernization of the Belgian Army. Foremost in opposing him was PaulHenri Spaak, the socialist pacifist who considered nationalism an evil . That a politi cian with loyalty to neither King nor country, a man whose son could tell an American interviewer "in my gut I do not feel that I am a Belgian," should become foreign minister of his country six times and prime minister twice is a tribute to the decline of morals in our time. Outside parliament Spaak led rowdy street demonstrations that ended in rock-throwing fights with the police. His window-breaking led him to be called "the black-tie bolshevik." After leading a mob of rioters whom he would have viewed socially with contempt, this son of a director of the Brussels opera would put on evening clothes and go to the exclusive Leopold Club to enjoy oysters and wine. In 1935 he received his first cabinet post as Minister of Transport and Posts. By 1936 socialist support pushed him into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where he preached pacifism and opposed appropriations for the army. In 1938, with war no longer in doubt, he became Prime Minister and advised the King he was plotting to destroy to remain on good relations with Hitler, Two years later, on May 10, 1940, Belgium's little army, which socialists had left almost naked before the enemy, held up the overwhelming force of Von Beck's 14

MAY 1990

divisions for 18 days with King Leopold personally in command . Sir Basil Liddell-Hart, the British military historian, wrote that Leopold's decision to remain with his troops kept Belgium in the war long enough for the British to reach Dunkirk, which they evacuated two days before Belgium's surrender, without notifying the King or the French. When Leopold surrendered on May 18, his army was down to half a day's supply -of ammunition, and his principal ministers had fled to France. From there they begged him to support them in negotiations for a peace settlement with the Nazis, which he refused. Then his own ministers joined the French and British governments in making him the scapegoat for France's collapse. He was accused of desertion and treachery. Screaming headlines declared he had betrayed the allied cause and on June 4, 1940 Churchill denounced him in the House of Commons . (The best book on this injustice is Outrageous Fortune by Lord Keyes, Elmscroft, Charlton Lane. West Farleigh, Near Maidstone . Kent. England .) As a prisoner, Leopold refused to stay in power and permit the enemy to use him .

WHAT FOLLOWS IS A STORY INTO WHICH NO STUDENT OF CONSPIRACY AND THE HANDS BEHIND THE FOR MATION OF A ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT DISGUISED AS AN ECONOMIC MARKET HAS EVER DARED PROBE.

Belgium was liberated by the 2nd British Army on September 2, 1944, but Eisenhower was commander in chief of allied forces and no move was made in Europe at that time without American orders or approval. The American Army liberated the King in Austria on May 7, 1945, and, as a prisoner of the Germans, the American commander would automatically have flown him home. Only orders from someone highly placed in Washington and constantly in touch with the Marxist Prime Minister Van Acker and his associate, Spaak, could have blocked the King's return. So, the question is: who were these Americans? They were those who since the Paris days with Colonel Edward Mandel House had been in league with Monnet, Spaak, Schuman and their socialist one-

came from America, $2,800,000 .00 was provided by the American Committee on United Europe, which Roosevelt's wartime OSS commander, General "Wild Bill" Donovan, headed . The $800,000 raised by Donovan came from tax-free contributions by American industrialists and the $2 million from CIA. Between 1951 and 1959 CIA transferred almost $3,500,000 directly to Spaak for youth education, and, aside from turning Belgium's youth against their King, one worldism, as a guarantee against war, was what the youth were taught . With such support it is understandable how Spaak's militant socialist minority was able to defy the democratically-expressed will of the people. The Flemish population with its weak Social Christian majority could not hold out against Spaak's well-organized mobs. The French weekly, Aux Ecoutes, of July 5, 1963, wrote that socialist-communist agitation forced King Leopold to abdicate on July 16, 1951, in favor of his 21-year-old, inexperienced son . The New York 7lmes, always with the one-worlders, wrote in its July 29, 1966, biographical sketch on Spaak: "the King remained during the Nazi occupation, though Spaak urged him to flee." It said nothing of his refusal to collaborate or his resistance which permitted the British to get out . And it noted with approval that "after the liberation it was Mr. Spaak who led the movement to bar Leopold from the throne ." TO SUM IT UP : The men of "the city" and the RIIA, known as Chatham House, needed a European to run their European movement for a single world . In the uneducated fanatic, Jean Monnet, they found their x.:an. His letter of August 5, 1943, to Roosevelt is an example of his thinking. "There will never be peace in Europe," he

wrote, "if the states reconstitute themselves on a base of national sovereignty." Cord Meyer, Jr., who rose to the top in CIA and was station chief in London when Britain was lured into the Common Market, hawked the same theme. It was blatantly dishonest . The old form of classic war between armies ceased when total war against civilians took over. The threat of balanced power made classic war too terrible for populations to accept. In World War I the depth of the front was ten miles . In World War II it extended as far as the British Isles . When nuclear submarines and world-spanning missiles removed all limits, classic war between nations phased itself out and the negotiating table replaced the battlefield . The coming war will be terrorist and religious, and in religious war there are no negotiations, because negotiations are based on reason. The removal of national borders removes all obstacles to terrorist war. Fear of what no longer exists led the West into the Monnet's net. The deliberately fragmented communist bloc is walking into it without fear because the net will in time be theirs . Since divided Belgium was selected as the perfect center for a world government movement, Monnet needed a Belgian, and who better could serve him than Paul-Henri Spaak?

WHAT IS THE PREDICTION FOR THE FUTURE? The decadent West, save

for Margaret Thatcher, is too apathetic to save itself. By the end of 1992 a considerable number of nations will, like Holland, be provinces with E .C. (European Community) in front of their names . Promises and pressure will lead other nations into surrendering sovereignty. American bankers, foundations and entrenched one-worlders will bring America in and A .C ., for Atlantic Community, will replace USA . Protests against government-by-foreigners, restrictions, regulations, laws passed for the sake of passing laws, petty regulations touching every phase of public and private life will grow.

A World on the Brink, and the New Threat

UPDATE ON THE MIDDLE EAST The consensus of objective writers on the Middle East is that Europe and America, by doing nothing to halt another form of terrorism in the occupied territories of Israel and Jerusalem's Old City, are letting themselves in for something their police will not be able to handle. It is inevitable that nations which have nothing to do with the Middle East will become battlefields in its struggle, because there is no other recourse for the side that has millions of suicide volunteers abroad but is helpless at home. No alliance of Moslem states can defeat Israel or obtain justice for individuals in its courts, so fanaticized Moslems will step up their atrocities against Israel's people elsewhere . America, France, Britain, Germany, Belgium, Italy and other nations face highly sophisticated Moslem terrorism in their streets, on top of whatever criminal or revolutionary problems they already have. America will be regarded as "the big Satan" and Europe's nations as little ones, for not saying "Enough!" to the enemy Islam sees as insatiable . This update is not anti-Semitic nor is it journalistic sensationalism . It is a warning the press of Western Europe has started to cry. Israel's hardliners are too unyielding to heed it, America's politicians too timid and Europe's too weak. Any writer who faces it will be called anti-Semitic . Consequently, if he has a sense of self-preservation he will stick to quotations from name writers on pro-Israel papers. The May 20 massacre in Israel's occupied territory could not have come at a worse time for France's socialist leaders who for the sake of votes have made France an occupied country . When two ladies discovered 34 profaned tombs in the Jewish cemetery of Carpentras and a disinterred body impaled on the iron rod of a parasol, on the morning of May 10, those in power prayed they could hang it on skinheads, neo-nazis, or the right-wing opposition party of Jean-Marie Le Pen. The following morning a voice with an Arab accent telephoned the daily Vaucluse Matin that six members of a Moslem group called Mohammed E1Boukima had raided the cemetery and exhumed the decomposing body. Police hoped a prankster, or someone bent on discrediting North Africans, had made the call . Though the message was repeated three times, followed by a few words in Arabic, the clue was too hot to follow. The country faced civil war with its five million Moslems when a schoolmaster tried to prevent trouble-making

In everyone's interest it must be ended, and that can be done in only one of two ways - by unilateral Israeli withdrawal, or by negotiated settlement." Through the first three weeks of April Labor Party leader Shimon Peres worked to form a left of center government that could salvage Secretary of State James Baker's plans for talks with the Palestinians . He seemed about to succeed when, on April 14, two key Orthodox members of the Knesset (parliament) deserted him and carried hardline Yitzak Shamir into power. The London Times reported that a telegram from a rabbi in Brooklyn ordered the two defecting rabbis to give Mr. Shamir a majority. Over the weekend of April 21-22, it came out, according to the London press, that Mr. Shamir had used his transitional power, after the collapse of the LikudLabor coalition, to install new settlements in the West Bank and Gaza strip through a property purchasing body known as Ateret Cohanim . Mr. David Levy, the Likud Housing Minister, had given 1 .2 million pounds sterling to militant settlers towards buying the Greek Orthodox hostel in Jerusalem's Old City . Arab inhabitants of the Old City had no legal recourse . The London Sunday Telegraph stated in a full-page story on May 20 : "The occupation of a rundown hostel at the side of the Holy Sepulcher last month by a group of Jewish settlers might seem minor . But in the tinderbox of Jerusalem's Old City, where the great monotheistic religions of Christianity, Judaism and Islam are obliged to live in uncomfortably close proximity, the slightest transgression is seen as the greatest sacrilege." It seemed a move by people with a death wish . "Certainly, the action of the 150 settlers who occupied St. John's Hospice of the Old City could not have been more designed to give maximum offense to the building's Greek Orthodox owners," the Sunday Telegraph continued. "From the moment the settlers moved in, the Cross of the Greek Patriarch was covered with the Star of David ; once inside they destroyed

page -3-

Christian paintings belonging to the church. When a priest who forced his way inside to try to stop the pillage asked a settler to hand him a picture of The Last Supper, the Israeli broke the frame over his knee and trampled the canvas into the floor." While the Sunday Telegraph article was being written, The Times, of London, carried out an investigation and reported on May 26 : "From the Jewish point of view, the property deals, even if arrived at through front organizations in Panama and Liechtenstein, are legitimate . . . Moslem and Christian residents, on the other hand, see a more sinister campaign, backed by Mr. Shamir's party and Jewish businessmen in the United States, to drive out Arabs completely. More than 30 properties - the Arabs put the figure much higher - have already been acquired by Ateret Cohanim and other groups closely linked to the fanatics in Gush Emunim (Bloc of the Faithful) and Rabbi Meir Kahane, the extremist banned from Israeli elections as a racist . Rabbi Kahane's lawyer works for Gush Emunim and also turned up as a spokesman for the St . John's Hospice." THE TIMES HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRO-ISRAEL AND ITS THREE-QUARTER PAGE STORY OF MAY 26 BY RICHARD OWEN WAS A PLEA AND A WARNING RATHER THAN AN ATTACK. "The settlers' leaders are not unworldly rabbis, but smooth professionals armed with walkie-talkies and submachine guns . The unsmiling settlers' representatives conduct their deals through middlemen known in Arabic as `simsars' renegade Arabs who buy property from fellow Arabs without revealing that they intend to sell to the settlers. According to Adrian Husseini, the administrator of Islamic Waqf, the trust which handles mosque property, "the simsars pressure home owners, using drugs to obtain signatures, forging documents, using harassment, intimidation, and, if all else fails, by selling property which is not theirs. The settlers then acquire squatting rights . They stop at nothing. In a house next to mine, the settlers took one room, then three more in the same building .

since Gorbachev ceased using them to destabilize western society. But they still have the power to make Europe and America another Lebanon . Seventeen nations are known to be furnishing terrorists with passports, but European nations dare not face Moslem mobs and American politicians are fighting a Republican President . Since Moscow ceased protecting the terrorist states - Libya, Syria and Iraq those who hold hostages fear what will happen to them if they let their last hostage go. Pierre de Villemarest, the author of four volumes on terrorism and compiler of one of the most extensive files on their organizations, would tell President Bush "If the right nonAmerican were given a large amount of money and not asked who he dealt with, every hostage could be freed, their takers delivered, hijackers kidnapped, and the makers of every bomb that ever blew up a plane forced to account for the 4,000 tons of Semtex they are known to have purchased." When Russian hostages were seized, Moscow told a Druze general to get them out. There was no haggling over price or how he was to do it. After watching for a week, his men knew who to seize and torture, to find out what they wanted to know. Their informant's body was sent to the kidnappers in a suitcase, with a terse note telling where the hostages were,

what they had eaten for breakfast, and naming the male relatives of their holders. The three Russians were promptly freed. Letting someone else do the same would be better than letting Colonel Higgins be hanged without lifting a hand. Such is the situation as America and Europe watch a fuse burn and await the explosion. RUSSIA: It is too soon for anything that you are not getting in your daily papers to come out of that country in convulsions . A deadly fight for power is going on behind a dark curtain.

On Wednesday, May 9, students at Lumumbashi University caught three informers he had placed there to spy on them. They admitted killing two students in February 1989 . The informers' bodies were thrown down a well. Two days later Mobuto's special brigade flew in from Kinshasa and took over the university. Students from Mobuto's tribe were given passwords so they would not be harmed . The rest, particularly those from Kivu, Kasai and the Bandundu tribe, were slaughtered and girl students violated in two days of terror. It took ten days for news of the massacre to reach a shocked Belgium. How many killed? Impossible to say. At least over 150. In America Congressman Stephan Solarz described South Africa's Nelson Mandela as "an Abraham Lincoln ." There is nothing to do but wait and see. With Eastern Europe in disarray and the Common Market's Secretary of State for Trade and Industry announcing on June 5 that the EC must embrace 17 other countries from the former Soviet bloc and European Free Trade Association, one-worldism realized a bound ahead.

REPORTS

VOLUME 33, LETTER 4 JULYAUG 1990

JUNE : A Month to Be Remembered

THIS MONTH'S UPDATE IS BLUNT AND ON ALGERIA. Communism has changed its name to socialism. A new threat has replaced it : Religious war in which tanks and missiles are useless. Fundamentalism is carrying Islam back to the seventh century. Simultaneously Black Africa is in ferment. On June 12, 1990, Algeria went to the polls after 28 years of independence, and a westernized Algerian summed it up: "The first time we've voted and it was for return to the middle ages!" Since Iran broke diplomatic relations with Britain she has waged a campaign of sapping in the more modern Moslem states . The June 12 election made Algeria Iran's first satellite, and it on Europe's doorstep . The Shah, undermined by the Ayatollah Khomeini from France and the Carter Administration in Washington, left Iran in January 1979 . President Carter's ambassador to UN, Andrew Young, hailed Khomeini as a "20th century saint" and Carter sent assurances of his own bornagain-Christianity . The Ayatollah, obsessed with spreading Shia fundamentalism and Islamizing the world, couldn't care less about Carter's Christianity or Andrew Young's judgments. The immediate victor in Algeria's municipal elections was Abbas el-Madani, a University of Algiers professor who made his classroom a forum for the Islamic Salvation Front (ISF), of which he is president . He told the leaders in power he would not be responsible for what happened if his candidates obtained less than 50% of the vote, but he avoided frightening voters who have moved into the 20th century. Waiting behind him was the bigoted imam whose forum is the mosque. When the ballots were counted 55% of Algeria's local councils and two-thirds of her provincial governments were in fundamen talist hands . Without wasting time Madani called for dissolution of the national assembly and presidential elections. The aim of the ISF is to make Algeria a political Islamic state with the laws of the Koran for a constitution . This is what is facing European nations, less than an hour s flight away and each with a potential Moslem fifth column on its soil. It is worse than America's Cuba, for Islam's fanatics welcome death as an entry to heaven. The disruption of transport, communications, water and electricity can paralyze a state and Western Europe's key services became filled with North Africans when politicians brought whole Moslem villages to Europe in their search for cheap labor and socialist votes.

Jordan ." When the Ayatollah sentenced Salmon Rushdie to death because of a book, Moslem mobs in France and Britain clamored to carry out the execution, and the police were helpless. The imam of the Great Mosque of Paris is an Algerian, appointed by Algeria and like a hundred other imams in French mosques, paid by a state now under Iran-type fundamentalism. Two-thirds of the foreign mothers giving birth to children in France are North African or Turkish . The International Population Center, in San Diego, estimates that by the year 2020 there will be two billion Moslems in the world. Regardless of what nationality they hold, the Koranic principal of perpetual allegiance authorizes Islam to claim them as citizens. In its April 1985 section headed "Under the spotlight," (Sous le Projecteur), Paris' Spectacle du Monde reported : "Immigrant is a misleading word . . . The real problem is assimilation . This is relatively easy when people have a common culture, a common nature, the same values . The trouble starts when the immigrant rejects assimilation, refuses to feel the same ties, insists on his right to be different . This right is indisputable, sacred, a part of human nature, but it cannot be exercised by two distinctly different people on the same soil without holding great troubles in the future . If the two people do not merge they will exterminate each other." Michel de Jaeghere, writing in the October 30, 1989, issue of the weekly Valeurs Actuelles, recognized that it took only three girls, determined to wear head-scarves in class and make trouble for those who did not, to shake the school system of France. "The veil," he wrote, "is only a first step, a symbol . The desired end is acceptance of the development of a Moslem state within the state, with its own authorities, its customs. What is at stake is French unity . . . Two people are cohabitating today on our soil. One is bound by the history of France, the other by Islam's community of believers. For the latter any compromise with the infidel must by nature be temporary." This is the situation the countries of the new and borderless EUROPE face .

-2STATE WORKED ON A PEACE PLAN FOR ISRAEL AND THE PALESTINIANS, THE FOREIGN MINISTERS OF THE ARAB STATES WERE HOLDING A SUMMIT MEETING IN BAGDAD ON MAY 22, 1990.

WHILE AMERICA'S SECRETARY OF

Yasser Arafat, the Palestine leader, asked France and the US to make Israel show moderation; out in the streets his followers were attacking French tourists and an American hotel . It was a warning to the West . "The real danger," Paris' leading daily, the moderate Figaro, of May 23, reported, "comes from the Islamists . The masses are turning towards them . The clashes between Moslems and Christians in Egypt, the rise of the Islamic Salvation Front, the dynamism of the Hamas movement in the occupied territories of Israel, the victory of the Moslem Brotherhood in the university elections of Jordan, all bear witness to the growing grip of Islamists on Arab populations . We are seeing a race against time between nationalists and Islamists." America, safe on the other side of the ocean and occupied with an unsolvable problem of color instead of religion, does not real ize the force of the time bomb ticking in Europe. What we are seeing might have come in time but it was hastened by a post-war crusade against colonialism which was senseless. Colonialism would have passed. Without foreign agitation, a new relation could have developed between colony and mother country, but this was not what those working for a world ruled from Brussels wanted. Forcing premature independence on colonies with the idea that Roosevelt's UN could adopt them brought tragedy in every case. John Costello's ?42-page history of the Pacific War tells of instances when operations that would have saved American lives were ruled out because they might have facilitated the reconstruction of the British Empire. The Bohlen papers and Anthony Kubek's "How the Far East Was Lost" tell how Roosevelt informed Stalin in Teheran, in November 1943, of his intentions to run the French out of Indo-China and the British out of India. France's nine-year war in Indo-China might be said to have started in February 1945 when Commander Helliwell gave Ho chi Minh pistols and cartridges with which to ambush French patrols and get their arms .

page -3Americans were told Ho chi Minh was helping fight the Japanese . Edgar O'Ballance, in The Indo-China War (1945-1954), gives an account of Ho's only clash with the Japanese, and it by accident. Chester L. Cooper, who an invariable proRussian Averell Harriman hailed as "one of the the unsung heroes in the battle for peace," provided an example of leftist disinformation in his book, The Lost Crusade, which Ford Foundation funded . Cooper wrote that Ho "finally succeeded in getting six pistols and a few rounds of ammunition from the Americans ." The six pistols could be used for years, what he called "a few rounds of ammunition" was 20,000. The nine-year war, which OSS agents launched in Indo-China, ended on May 6, 1954, when a battle involving 4% of French forces in the theater was lost at Dein Bien Phu. It was a no-win war, just as America's was in Vietnam . A lull offive months followed and the sort of people who detonated the war in Indo-China incited a new one in Algeria on November 1, 1954. An account of Robert Murphy's role in sowing the seeds of a war for premature independence in Algeria may be found in book one of Claude Paillat's Twenty Years That Tore France Asunder (Vingt Ans Qui Dechierent La France), and his two volumes of L'Echiquier d'Alger (1940-1944), published by Robert Laffont . 6, Place SaintSulpice, Paris 75006.

THE GENERAL UNION OF ALGERIAN WORKERS (UGTA), ORGANIZED IN 1956, WAS THE LABOR ARM IN THE ALGERIAN CONFLICT, AND HERE THE POST-WAR ROLE OF LABOR UNIONS IN EXTERNALLY-INSPIRED REVOLTS MUST BE STUDIED. One-world movements proliferated after

Britain's Round Table conspirators joined Colonel Edward Mandel House, President Wilson's alter ego, in 1919. The House school of one-worlders planned on destroying the nation state and packaging the world in the League of Nations. They failed because they neglected to undermine patriotism. Roosevelt's dream was to form a world government under United Nations. Dreamers like Clarence Streit and Cord Meyer, Jr., pre dicted chaos and war if the world did not accept their plan for a federal union. The

Royal Institute of International Affairs, in Britain, backed Jean Monnet, Paul-Henri Spaak, the socialist, and Americans such as Averell Harriman and Robert Murphy, who planned to make Brussels the capital of a oneworld state . Walter Reuther, the labor leader, dreamed of a labor union world . His roving organizer and agitator, Irving Brown, set up labor unions in countries and colonies marked to become bits of mosaic in a socialist labor world. Natives were brought to America for "labor union leadership" training, then sent home to turn their workers into foot soldiers for revolution . Each labor leader was expected to be loyal to the man who made him ; America would pressure countries into surrendering to labor mobs backed by a monster union-of-unions in Brussels, and in time Reuther would have an empire. He was in the process of realizing it when an airplane solved one of the world's problems by crashing with him in it. North Africa was to form the first bloc in Reuther s empire . With the entire American press behind him, Habib Bourguiba was installed in Tunisia. A marxist named Mehdi ben Barka was given a press build-up, received by Eisenhower, and picked to depose his King and take over Morocco. Fortunately, Morocco moved first and ben Barka disappeared from a Paris street on October 29, 1965. The big prize was to have been Algeria . Michael Clark tells, in Turmoil in Algeria, of the vast sums in dollars being turned over to the rebels in Switzerland . Abdelkader Chanderli, the Algerian lobbiest to UN, conned the New York Times into sending Joe Kraft to go live with the "freedom fighters," who put on a show for him - in Tunisia. The International Confederation of Free Trade Unions, according to Time, of March 26, 1965, received $15 million from American unions between 1949 and 1965, but this did not include what it handled as a money conduit in American labors fight to make Algeria a Reuther colony. In March 1961 the American labor federation gave the Algerians $3,250,000 for the next four months and voted that for the following six to nine months every American unionized worker would make a monthly contribution, "not to exceed 18 cents" per month. Multiply that by

IN 1973 A FRENCH AUTHOR NAMED JEAN RASPAIL PUBLISHED THE CAMP OF THE SAINTS. The story of a hundred rusting boats depositing the dregs of the third world on elegant beaches of the Mediterranean coast. Sick, nude, unarmed and pacific, leftist politicians, writers, TV stars and intellectuals had encouraged them to flee their misery and come to the paradise of the West. To a man, bleeding hearts appealed to the West's conscience to let them in. Every one of them was recognizable in Raspail's merciless book. Almost alone, the head of the country hesitated . The two hundred thousand-man force sent to prevent the landing evaporated along the road. Whole divisions disappeared as refugees from the south fled northward. Neither France nor the West was capable of defending itself. The mass of misery disembarked, spreading like ants and taking everything in its path. Similar creatures emerge from ghettos, join the invaders and take over government. The fate of those who paralyzed the West's will does not discourage the same fatuousness elsewhere . In London, New York and other capitals of the white world the scene is repeated. Some believe the prophecy of The Camp of the Saints is about to be fulfilled. Douglas Reed, the British author, wrote in The Siege of South Africa: "The history of the world revolution is of absorbing interest to students. It is so old and its original root is so hard to find, but the continuing development of the idea can be picked up at almost any period . In this century it has made great gains and the present ambition is evidently to complete the process during the remainder of the century: To this end the ruination of all law and order in Africa is obviously held to be a paramount necessity." The last is being accomplished. JOHN SMALLDON'S FEATURE STORY IN THE LONDON SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

JULY-AUG 1990

OF JANUARY 16, 1977, WAS "HOW THE SOUTH AFRICAN BOYCOTT WAS PLANNED." He set September 21, 1976, as the date when the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions met in Brussels and delegates from its 119 national unions voted to boycott South Africa . Andrew Young, President Carter's ambassador to UN, was going to Tanzania on January 22 to incite the Rhodesians against Ian Smith, and the ICFTU call for boycott was timed to strengthen Young, but campaign for boycott had been going on for years. Those responsible for Africa's present misery were not offering liberty or equality, they were giving unprepared tribes the right to vote for corrupt politicians and wage war among themselves. South Africa was to be the final prize and biggest battlefield of all . Every move followed a classic pattern . Irving Brown would go to a colony and organize a union . A black, considered manageable, would be sent to America for grooming. When he had enough African unions, Reuther packaged them in a TRADES UNION CONGRESS, with Post Office Box 701, Accra, as an address. Accra was the capital of Ghana where America's labor ambassador installed Kwame N'Krumah, of the many Swiss bank accounts and prisons full of opponents, as President . Irving Brown took New York lawyer and Council on Foreign Relations man, Lawrence McQuade, to Ghana with him in late 1958 and The Paris Herald Pibune, of January 15, 1959, printed Ghana's Bid for Leadership, by McQuade, who cried "Africans, Unite! You have a continent to regain and nothing to lose but your chains!" They gained nothing but thousands lost their heads. On March 9, 1960, Walter Reuther wrote a three-page letter to Secretary of State Christian Herter which his dupes in Accra could use as a model . Reuther called on Herter (who was trained by Wilson's Colonel House) to suspend purchases of gold and cease stockpiling strategic materials from South Africa. He was ready to sabotage America's defense program in his fight to destroy Pretoria, and members of his African Trades Union Congress were told to flood Herter with similar appeals.

H du B REPORTS

The World is on the Brink of War as We Write This Report

As July drew to a close Saddam Hussein was massing troops on the border of Kuwait and Congressman Les Aspin, chairman of America's all important House Armed Services Committee, was pushing a vote through congress to cut $24 billion from the Pentagon's defense budget. All Saddam Hussein was awaiting was nightfall, to seize Kuwait's 94 .5 billion barrels of proven oil reserves and estimated foreign investment portfolio of $100 billion . Not an ideal moment to kill America's Stealth bomber program and slash funds for the Strategic Defense Initiative, designed to destroy in coming missiles in space.

VOLUME 33, LETTER 5 SEPTEMBER 1990

PARIS' DAILY FIGARO REPORTED ON JULY 21 THAT ISRAEL BELIEVED AN IRAQ ATTACK ON KUWAIT WAS IMMINENT. London Arabists told the

Foreign Office ten days later they believe Saddam's change of the Iraqi constitution on July 20 was to give himself new powers for a takeover of one or more of the Gulf oil sheikdoms . On August 2 it came . Saddam calculated that no one would be willing or able to move if he acted quickly. President Bush surprised critics at home and most of all Saddam by announcing on the night of August 3 that the US had contingency plans for military action and would not tolerate establishment of a

puppet government in Kuwait. If he had not moved at once the annexation of the small state would have been accepted . Saddam Hussein had been arming for fifteen years to build an empire that would extend from Egypt to India . He would grab the emirates and sheikdoms and then the monarchies . In June 1981 Israel destroyed his "Osirak" nuclear center at Tammouz, so he turned to bacteriological and chemical weapons, the poor man's nuclear arms against which Congressman Aspin weakened America by a vote of 34 to 20 . The invasion was expected as far back as July 12, 1973, when the London Financial Times warned: "Iraq is keeping up pressure on the Kuwait border. Kuwait has offered terms allowing for its neighbor's strategic interests . But Iraq's objectives do not allow for a settlement."

PRESIDENT BUSH'S FIRST MOVE WAS AN APPEAL FOR CESSATION OF TRADE WITH THE AGGRESSOR. This
calls for an appraisal of America's position and Saddam's in a world where Moslem fundamentalism is a powerful force . Hatred of Israel and her supporters is so dominant, military victory for America could turn into a political defeat.

VOLUME 33, LETTER 6 OCTOBER 1990

War hung on the balance through hot September as the two forces faced each other like wary fighters . No one was on guard while Saddam Hussein amassed men, tanks, and armored troop carriers on the Kuwait border, but it is now known that President Bush was aware twentyfour hours in advance that the attack was coming. If the President that America's Eastern establishment ceaselessly attacked as a wimp had not moved at once, what would have happened? Count de Marenches, France's pre-socialist intelligence chief, of whom we wrote last month, told Edouard Sablier in Valeurs Actuelles of September 10 : "Saddam Hussein would have rolled to the Straits of Hormuz in less than a week . He would have found himself master of all the Arab oil in the Persian Gulf, of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates ." While tanks and troops were assembling for the stab in the back, a Saddam spokesman lulled the Kuwaitis by dis cussing terms for the repayment of loans received during the war with Iran. The Kuwaiti, not knowing trucks were standing by to loot Kuwaiti homes, said "forget the money."

LAND WAS SELLING FOR $10,000 A SQUARE YARD IN KUWAIT BEFORE SEPTEMBER 2 . It would be hard to

judge its value today. Egypt's General Ahmed Abdel Halim, of the Center of Middle East Studies, in Cairo, told a French envoy, "I do not see any solution but war . Even if Saddam pulls out of Kuwait, he remains a threat and we cannot permit it." Asked when the attack will be launched, he replied : "It is a matter of hours. We military men figure in hours up to 168, which is to say a week. I believe H hour will come before the end of September. The situation cannot be prolonged indefinitely. Also, it is impossible to leave such a force idle for months." Saddam's chances of survival? "Saddam cannot move a missile," the general stated. "American radars and satel lites are locked on all his frequencies. The Patriot anti-missile system is in place . Even his chemical warfare weapons no longer make sense . The key to their success was surprise and he has lost that advantage . Without control of the air he is paralyzed ." As the general saw it, Saddam was too sure no one would oppose him. If he had had the audacity to seize the Saudi oil fields at once he would have presented the world with a fait accompli. His plan was to create an economic and military empire by adding Iran, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia to a greater Iraq. He would have found himself at the head of a colossal power."

IN SUM, JUST AS THE RUSSIAN THREAT, WITH NATIVE COMMUNISTS FORMING A CANCER IN EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WEST, WAS DISSOLVING, THE THREAT OF A HOSTILE MOSLEM WORLD WAS RISING. Had President Bush made a preemptive strike before Saddam had time to insulate his airfields, chemical warfare plants, and missile bases with European hostages, the Washington Post and UN would have helped Saddam mobilize Islam against him. Bush had to be seen to be acting in concert with UN and his allies, not in advance of them. There was no alternative but a massive build-up . While the build-up was taking place, Saddam Hussein stalled . No ruse was overlooked . When he announced that women and children who wanted to leave could do so, he knew they would form an instant peace lobby as soon as they got home, to save the men they had left behind . Fortunately, Margaret Thatcher, the Prime Minister Jeanne Kirkpatrick would have ruined at the time of the Falklands war, was in America and with Bush when Saddam seized Kuwait. She and the President stood firm in UN and before their respective oppositions .

asked what he thought of the hostage problem he replied as one who knows the man the West is dealing with . Coldly, with no sentiment in his voice, he said: "Alas, we must count them on the global balance sheet. There will be victims on both sides. In relation to their objectives, each must decide what he considers an acceptable level of losses." In military language he was saying "write them off. If they survive, so much the better, but on the balance sheet they rate as soldiers."

COUNT DE MARENCHES WAS ASKED WHEN AMERICA WO ULD STRIKE . He replied "they will hit when they decide they have a crushing superiority of materiel in place, and before support at home begins to weaken . For the Americans are not European-type soldiers; they are "industrial" soldiers. Their way of waging war is to pulverize the enemy with what their industry can produce ." (Von Hindenberg called it "America's merciless industry.") SADDAM, INTENDING TO TAKE CARE OF IRAN AT A LATER DATE, GAVE UP EVERYTHING HE HAD GAINED WITH GAS MISSILES AND NINE YEARS OF FIGHTING, IN ORDER TO FREE HIS TROOPS FROM THE IRANIAN FRONT. Mahmoud Hashemi Rafsanjani, knowing what he was up to but figuring Saddam will no longer be a menace when the Americans are through with him, agreed to a peace settlement giving Iran everything she wanted and received Iraq's Prime Minister Tariq Aziz without promising anything . Frantically, Saddam stripped his Iranian front of the 100,000 men tied down there . Twenty-five thousand went to Jordan, between 30,000 and 60,000 to the border with Turkey and the rest to Kuwait. Morale was rumored to be bad. There was talk of suicides in the army. Escaping refugees said soldiers had been told they were being sent against Israel. Kuwait Radio reported on September 8 that three members of President Saddam's elite presidential guard, Captain Muhsin Karam, Captain Ali Ahmed Hasan and Lieutenant Najim Hamid, had been executed on the

WHEN SADDAM PLAYED HIS FIRST CARD, THE HOSTAGE BLACKMAIL, MRS. THATCHER SPOKE LIKE A GREAT LEADER: "The hostages are our countrymen, and we owe to them what we owe to all other subjects of the Crown : namely, to retaliate against those who do them unjust violence. But we have no obligation to set aside the national interest for the sake of their release ." Those were brave words. If America is as resolute it will be because one of the incontrovertible achievements of the Bush presidency has been to assure that the American administration can again discuss its foreign policy in private. Even three years ago the Washington press was able to expose the most secret negotiations of government, drag effective officers before committees measuring political mileage by the viciousness of their questioning and wasting millions of dollars in trials that were purely political . When General Ahmed Abdel Halim was

OCTOBER 1990

Should Mr. Baker have anything to do with the leader of one of the four nations - Libya, Iraq, Syria and Iran - practicing terrorism as a policy? The answer is yes. Syria was coming to America as a beggar in the alignment against Iraq and here was an opportunity for the American secretary of state to sit down with Hafez al-Assad in a position of dignity and strength . It was an opportunity not to be missed and he made the most of it. It is interesting to picture them as they faced each other, talking for four hours and a half. Both knew Rafsanjani was putting out feelers to restore relations with the west. When Saddam Hussein is toppled Syria and Libya will be the only haven left for terrorists. At one time or another every one of them has been in the employ of alAssad, and when Saddam falls a lot of secrets will come out. On August 10, Saddam called for terrorists to hit his enemies wherever they are. On September 6 he turned against his for mer allies and exhorted Arabs and Moslems to topple King Fahd of Saudi Arabia and President Mubarak of Egypt . "We call on them (the people) to revolt against t'ieir rulers and traitors," he said in a speech read over Baghdad television while his prime minister, Tariq Aziz flew to Moscow and the call for a holy war was repeated. In early September Paris' leftist daily, Liberation, quoted Abu Iyad, second in command to Yassir Arafat, as saying an attack on Iraq would result in terrorist attacks against the West more terrible than ever before. On September 9, Abu Abbas, the Palestine Liberation Front leader who masterminded the seizing of the tourship Achille Lauro in October 1985, told a corre-

again and when Saddam has been dealt with, Libya's Qaddafi will receive attention while the forces are there. Assad and Mr. Baker knew as they faced each other that with the fall of Saddam government-sponsored terrorism will be a thing of the past. Men like Abu Nidal and Ahmed Jibril will know their surviving former employers are likely to kill them before they can talk. Mr. Baker did not hesitate to mention the blowing up of Pan-Am flight number 103 over Lockerbie on December 21, 1988, sending 270 passengers to their death . Assad must have wondered how much his visitor knew. His excuse for inaction against the terrorists he was sheltering was insufficient evidence . Nothing goes on in Syria that Hafez alAssad's seven services do not know about. What he was saying was : "prove it." Mr. Baker refused to drop the terrorist issue and may have reminded his host that Mrs . Bonny Pugh, the wife of the American ambassador to Chad, died with 170 others in flight 772 of a French DC 10 that blew up over the Sahara on September 19, 1989, under strikingly similar circumstances . Here Assad would have been against a wall. He knew that the other was aware of the file compiled by France's anti-terrorist judge . President al-A.ssad went into a rage when France gave arms to General Michel Aoun's Christian Army in Lebanon in 1989. He decided to teach Paris a lesson, and one of his seven action services went to work with Ahmed Jibril, of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command. They picked the Brazzaville-Paris plane because UTA flight 772 would make a land-

Actually, Kuwait was a relatively advanced country and had an articulate and well-educated middle class . The al-Sabah family provided education and allowed its women liberties which Moslem fundamentalism is trying to stamp out. They saw that no Kuwaiti waited on a cart in a hospital hall until a white-uniformed nurse at a desk made sure his bill would be paid. In Dubai there are only two taxes, one for the PLO and one on liquor. The ignorant newspaper writer trying to destroy support for the President and Kuwait's Emir failed to see that America is protecting the most important piece of real estate in the world against a monster who if not stopped now may become a genie too big to get back in the vase again . The man, or woman, who wrote the America Today story was adding class war and the feminist fight to an issue already plagued with religion . It could only justify a fear Stewart Alsop recognized in his New York Herald Ribune column of December 8, 1951, when he went to the Middle East 39 years ago : "Arabs of all classes genuinely fear the State of Israel. They share a universal emotional conviction that sooner or later Israel will attempt with the support of the United Sates - to conquer and rule the Arab world." Alfred M. Lilienthal listened to the plea of Pakistan foreign minister, Sir Muhammed Zafrullah Khan, before the UN General Assembly in 1947 and wrote in his 1957 book, There Goes the Middle East : "Remember that you may need friends, tomorrow, that you may need allies in the Middle East. I beg of you not to ruin and blast your credit in those lands." Marvin Stone brought a flood of letters on his head when he editorialized in the December 5, 1977 issue of U.S. News & World Report: "Jews in America won eminence through their own talents and industry, which had been trampled on in other lands. They owed America a lot, and they repaid in heaping measure. But with the creation of Israel a dilemma developed. A strong lobby deluges members of Congress

H du B REPORTS

VOLUME 33, LETTER 7 NOV-DEC 1990

Dear Reader: This is written in a period of crisis. Should sudden developments warrant it, we will put out a special December issue.

As the World Stands in November

The coalition mobilized to save Saudi Arabia still faces the Iraqi army that invaded and annexed Kuwait . The first hesitates to carry out what it was mobilized to do for fear of what the United Nations or headline-seeking politicians might say, President Bush felt forced from the first to appear to be acting in concert with UN, never in advance of it. The Presidential commission looking into the Lockerbie aircraft bombing of December 1, 1988, declared on May 15, 1990, "The United States should stage a pre-emptive strike against known terrorist groups." Had the President done so the Washington Post would have torn him to pieces. The present confrontation provides an opportunity to destroy a threat before it grows . Uninformed protestors and politics-playing congressmen are throwing it away. Saddam Hussein may emerge as a hero for outsmarting the infidel . He played for time, knowing that survival would be a victory. The coalition against him is a gift from heaven - as long as it doesn't do anything . He can smear his Arab enemies for asking support from

Israel's friend, and show himself as the only leader fighting to liberate Jerusalem . He figured the coalition would dissolve if he could stall long enough. Americans would want the boys home for Christmas . In time, anger would be replaced by fear of war, fear of what might happen to "our boys ." He knew if America weakened, the coalition would evaporate and he would have defeated the West. He should have been removed quickly, before the masses came to see him as their champion. If any one of the Arab monarchies falls because of his invasion, it could touch off revolutions that would leave Iran-type republics in their wake. Saddam knew that the more vituperous he is against the power that "humiliated" the Arab nation, the weaker would be Arab opposition to his annexation of Kuwait. So he stalled, duped foreign emissaries and encouraged hints that a diplomatic settlement is possible. None is. His aim is to survive with some gain, divide the West, and become Islam's "fiihrer." Leaders of the moderate Moslem states in the coalition live with volcanos rumbling beneath them. If the Christian armies Saudi Arabia invited in go away without performing a surgical operation: the removal of Saddam, Christianity's

IT IS TOO LATE TO UNDO WHAT WAS DONE ON MAY 15, 1948, WHEN "AN INDEPENDENT STATE WAS SET UP IN PALESTINE, IN LAND THAT HAD NOT BEEN `JEWISH' FOR 2000 YEARS," as Alfred Lilienthal put it in his

1957 book, THERE GOES THE MIDDLE EAST. Mr. Truman admitted that "partition was not taking place in exactly the peaceful manner that I had hoped," the day he "decided to move at once and give American recognition to the new nation ." Today America's politicians should think deeply about the man they are facing and not November's votes .

up a French DC-10 in Africa with the wife of an American vice-consul on board, as a lesson to the French . He is using America in the showdown with Iraq and America is using him . With complete cynicism, he profited by America's need of him to take over General Aoun's Christian area of Beirut and have his army torture and massacre over 200 of Aoun's officers. Soldiers then assassinated the respected Danny Chamoun and his family.

THE ONLY DIFFERENCE DIVIDING SADDAM HUSSEIN AND PRESIDENT HAFEZ AL ASSAD, OF SYRIA, IS THAT BOTH WANT TO BE THE LEADER OF ALL ARABS . Saddam was planning the

seizure of Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia for five years before he made a move . With this land mass, its wealth and the holy places of Mecca and Medina-en-nabbi, in his hands, he would become a modern Caliph, able to incite a billion Moslems against his enemies. The most astute act of Mohammed was to make the pilgrimage to Mecca a duty. Political differences may prevent Arab states from uniting, but the pilgrimage to Mecca holds Islam's spiritual empire together.

AMERICA NEEDED ONE STATE FROM THAT EMPIRE WHOSE LEADER WAS NOT LIKELY TO BE OVER THROWN FROM BELOW. Hafez al-Assad

was the answer. He has hanged Syrians from lamp posts and sent terrorists around the world to assassinate his enemies . The killing of 54 French soldiers and 219 U.S. Marines in Beirut on October 23, 1983, was set up by Adnan al-Assad, his cousin, to make home opinion force the American and French presidents to get their boys out of Beirut. As late as September 19, 1989, al-Assad had one of his seven services blow

can prevent opposition from lifting its head. The country has been independent since 1944 and Hafez al-Assad's dream is to weld Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine into a greater Syria . Ruse, secrecy and terror are his arms . When the invasion of Kuwait gave him an opportunity to wipe out his Iraqi Sunnite rival with American help, he sent 15,000 troops and 500 tanks to line up with the Americans, Egyptians and Saudi Arabians without a moment's hesitation. Then he went to Teheran for approval . He planned to spend 48 hours. It took him four days to convince the hardliners that as long as Saddam is alive there is danger that he will turn the Sunnites of Central Asia against them, that the Indian subcontinent, Afghanistan, Turkistan, and Soviet Tadjikistan will attack Iran from the rear. Mrs . Thatcher swore she would never have anything to do with al-Assad after the Nezar Hindawi affair, when the Syrian embassy in London had a young Arab try to put his pregnant girlfriend on an El Al plane on April 17, 1986, with a time bomb in her luggage . She has bowed, temporarily, like the rest. In spite of the criticism President Reagan received when he moved against Qaddaf , he called on Europe in October 1986, to support him in isolating al-Assad. Only Mrs. Thatcher stood with him, so there was no action.

Many set 1985 as the year Gorbachev decided entry into the European Community would permit Moscow to take over a packaged EUROPE from within . But first, Russia had to acquire respectability. British officials believe Gorbachev's decision to take his distance from killers came in April 1984, when a Libyan intelligence man opened fire on a demonstration outside Qaddafi's "People's Bureau" in London and killed police woman Yvonne Fletcher. The following day the KGB controller in Britain received a telegram from Moscow telling him Qaddafi had flown an experienced hit man from East Berlin to oversee the shooting. The next time Qaddafi went to Russia his reception was cool and change was in the works.

Looking gray-haired and tired, the King who has survived so many assassination attempts in his 38 years on the throne concedes that he has no options . Ruler of a small and poor country wedged between Israel and Iraq, he sees no hope. Because he enforced the UN embargo he has lost his main export market, Iraq. Tens of thousands of Jordanians and Palestinians are streaming back to Amman, joining thousands of destitute families from Kuwait. Seventy percent of Husain's people are Palestinians looking on Saddam as the man who will liberate Jerusalem and give them a country. If they topple Husain and unite with Iraq, it will be a casus belli for Israel .

WITH GORBACHEV NO LONGER OBSTRUCTING ACTION, EVERYONE IS TRYING TO GAIN SOMETHING BY THE CRISIS. Jesse Jackson showed up in

SOME EUROPEAN OBSERVERS ESTIMATE THAT WAR WILL COMMENCE IN NOVEMBER, OTHERS SAY MID-DECEMBER . More and more think

Baghdad to be given a 15-car escort, to annoy America . NATO proved to be an expensive gun pointed in the wrong direction. The one-worlders in Brussels were busy consolidating the nucleus of states around which a world government can be formed, but they tried to realize what profit they could. UN dug up article 51 in the charter Alger Hiss carried from San Francisco to Washington in 1945. It gives troops in Saudi Arabia, at Saudi Arabia's request, the power to prevent Iraq from carrying the war beyond the Kuwait border. But by then, this was something Saddam had no intention of doing. An attack on the powerful coalition would mean classic war. In the excitement of UN's attempts to reap benefit out of the Iraq affair, all concerned were too busy to notice that Oleg Gordievsky, the KGB defector and his co-author, Dr. Christopher Andrew, had exposed Alger Hiss, one of UN's architects, as a Soviet spy in their book, KGB : THE INSIDE STORY OF ITS FOREIGN OPERATIONS FROM LENIN TO GORBACHEV

THE MAN WITH EVERYTHING TO LOSE AND NOTHING TO GAIN IS

it will not come at all . Wars seldom start when they are predicted or end as quickly as economists and governments calculate they must. Frank Johnson wrote in the London Sunday Telegraph of October 14 : "If the West is going to do anything about Saddam, there will be an unpredictable war, and if it is not going to do anything about him there will be a more unpredictable peace." Norman Macrae avoided the conditional in the London Sunday Times, of October 21, and stated, "A settlement with Saddam would be the ultimate folly, increasing the risk ofnuclear war." Valeurs Actuelles of October 22, the French weekly, carried the best-founded and most considered evaluation of the situ ation . On its cover were fist-shaking, screaming Arabs and the words: ISLAMOCCIDENT. A WAR OF A HUNDRED YEARS . In a feature article editor Francois d'Orcival warned, "A Saddam Hussein victory, even the minimum, even small, will entail a chain of revolutions in all the Arab monarchies, and in Egypt, with whom he is contending for domination of the Eastern Mediterranean . Victory or defeat is for the Moslems an expression of Allah's will . If Saddam is defeated, they will not revolt against him, they will accept it. Islam signifies submission to Allah ." (Valeurs Actuelles. 6, rue

When he is gone terrorists will have only two havens : Libya and Syria . America and the European states, with such sovereignty as Brussels has left them, must then decide what to do.

THE HUNDRED YEAR WAR PREDICTED BY ONE OF THE MOST RELIABLE MAGAZINES IN EUROPE IS NOT AN EXAGGERATION, AND OIL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, SAVE THAT WAR WILL AFFECT ITS PRICE . Few

ber of Arab mullahs were going to see Bazargan and Saddam persuaded one of them to carry a cassette recorder under his robe, "so we can hear for ourselves what Bazargan has to say." The recorder was packed with explosive and detonated by remote control when Bazargan started speaking . The mullahs were blown to pieces and Bazargan would have died instantly if a man serving tea had not been standing in front of him .

NOV-DEC 1990

Europeans are under any delusions, but most Americans think of war in terms of classic armies. An idea of the kind of war which a spared Saddam would wage, is provided by a recent interview with Abu Abbas, the man responsible for the seizure of the Achille Lauro and some of the most cold-blooded massacres in Europe. His organization, the Palestine Liberation Front, he boasted, "is preparing to attack American interests because America is the enemy. America supports Israel ." The war he is preparing to wage is called "personal war." He declared, "I am fighting with means my father never dreamed of, with weapons I never dreamed of. I am bringing up my three sons to know their duty. They will fight the same battle in a way I cannot imagine . "Someday an Arab country will have ballistic missiles. Someday an Arab country will have a nuclear bomb. It is better for the United States and Israel to reach peace with the Palestinians before that day." President Bush's advisers hold that it is better to destroy Saddam and then talk to the Palestinians . The announcement by Yuri Reshetov, chairman of the Soviet foreign ministry human rights department, that two million Soviet Jews a year can be emigrating to Israel annually by the mid-90's, led Saddam Hussein to advance his timetable . Former Prime Minister Edward Heath begs the West to talk to Saddam . What good is any promise Saddam makes? In 1970 he concluded a peace agreement with Mustapha Bazargan, the late Kurdish leader. In September of that year a num-

IF THERE IS NO ASSAULT ON KUWAIT AND IRAQ, THE THOUSANDS OF SOLDIERS TRAINED FOR SADDAM IN SOVIET CAMPS WILL BE USED ELSEWHERE. As long as he is alive, ter-

rorism and demography will be his allies . Islam is a polygamous society with as many as four or five wives to a man and five to eight children to a woman. Invasion of Kuwait will be said to have started the conflict, but its real cause will be what Truman did on May 15, 1948, and, above all, the total occupation ofJerusalem . There is nothing anti-Semitic about facing this, and peace marchers screaming they will not fight for oil do not realize that in refusing any concession, both Saddam and Tel Aviv are leading them into a religious war which has nothing to do with oil . When General de Gaulle was asked his opinion, after the seizure of Jerusalem in 1967, he replied that security was essential to the existence of the Hebrew state, and that it can only be obtained by a peaceful solution, which means negotiations. "Barring a negotiated settlement," he added, "the infernal cycle of 'occupationterrorism-repression' will wipe out all reason and an endless war of position will ensue." This is where Islam and the West stand . There can be no negotiated solution when neither Israel nor the Arabs will yield on the status of ground both consider holy. The "peace" which demonstrators are marching for will mean nuclear war when the underdog is ready.
