The American Experience (PBS): The Charles Lindbergh Des Moines Speech of 1941

National polls showed that when England and France declared war on Germany, in 1939, less than 10 percent of our population favored a similar course for America. But there were various groups of people, here and abroad, whose interests and beliefs necessitated the involvement of the United States in the war. I shall point out some of these groups tonight, and outline their methods of procedure. In doing this, I must speak with the utmost frankness, for in order to counteract their efforts, we must know exactly who they are.

The three most important groups who have been pressing this country toward war are the British, the Jewish and the Roosevelt administration.

Behind these groups, but of lesser importance, are a number of capitalists, Anglophiles, and intellectuals who believe that the future of mankind depends upon the domination of the British empire. Add to these the Communistic groups who were opposed to intervention until a few weeks ago, and I believe I have named the major war agitators in this country.

Christophobes At The Gates: Christopher Ferrara for The Remnant

By now many readers of this newspaper will have heard of the nonsensical and error-filled “report” on the traditionalist movement by an outfit called the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). SPLC’s self-bestowed mission is to rid America of “hate and intolerance,” which is how the far-Left describes any sort of effective opposition to Liberalism’s claim to possession of the entire world.

Karl Keating of Catholic Answers deserves a great deal of credit for being the only spokesman in the Novus Ordo establishment who has been publicly critical of the SPLC smear job.

Keating practiced law before he decided to devote himself full time to Catholic apologetics, and a well-deserved lawyerly contempt is on display in his critique, which appears in “Karl Keating’s E-Letter” of February 6, 2007, under the title “A Botched Report on a Worthy Issue.”

There are, however, serious shortcomings in Keating’s critique, which fails to take issue with SPLC on first principles, as even non-Catholic conservatives have done. If Keating’s critique is any indication, the Novus Ordo constituency of which he is such a prominent representative has failed to grasp that the traditionalist movement is not some dispensable minority group whose fate at the hands of the Liberal inquisition is more or less a matter of indifference to the “mainstream” Church. Rather, this opening attack on the traditionalist movement is an attack on traditional Roman Catholicism itself as the only formidable obstacle to worldwide Liberal hegemony. Hence this article will discuss both SPLC’s “exposé” and Keating’s critique in the larger context of the crisis in the Church and the growing threat posed to her by Liberal social order.

A Review of Chalmers Johnson's "Nemesis" by Stephen Lendman

Chalmers Johnson is professor emeritus of the University of California, San Diego where he taught for 30 years as well as at UC, Berkeley (where he was educated). At Berkeley, he was chairman of the Center for Chinese Studies and its Department of Political Studies. He's currently president of the Japan Policy Research Institute (JPRI), a not-for-profit research and public affairs organization involved in public education relating to Japan and international relations in the Pacific region. Johnson is also a prolific writer and author of 17 books, numerous articles and various other publications.

From 1967 through 1973, he served as well as a consultant to the Office of National Estimates (ONE) within the CIA, and during the Cold War years was, by his own characterization, a former "spear-carrier for the empire." At least since the age of George Bush, however, Johnson radically transformed himself into one of the nation's sharpest and most important intellectual critics of the current administration having now completed the third and last volume of his "inadvertent trilogy" in his newest book Nemesis that's the subject of this review.
