Quotes – Are Americans programmed by psychopaths to become psychopaths

“Psychopaths derive their power from the complicity of the general population. Most people still get suckered in by the manipulation of psychopaths, and most people still admire them. The only answer to eliminating the power of the psychopath is to educate the public…
The better informed you are, the better you are able to spot psychopaths, and then distancing yourself from them, cutting them off from your money, your attention and your devotion.”
– Stefan Verstappen

“Countries ruled by psychopaths become corrupt and brutish police states constantly at war with created and imaginary enemies. The population becomes paranoid, neurotic, and ultimately secondary psychopaths. In a psychopathic culture, everyone must adopt a ruthless attitude as a survival strategy.”
– Stefan H. Verstappen

“The prevalence of sociopathy in the United States seems to be increasing. The 1991 Epidemiologic Catchment Area study, sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health, reported that in the fifteen years preceding the study, the prevalence of antisocial personality disorder had nearly doubled among the young in America.”
– Martha Stout

“Psychopathic behavior seems to be on the rise because of the very nature of American capitalistic society. The great hustlers, charmers, and self-promoters in the sales fields are perfect examples of where the psychopath can thrive. The entertainment industry, the sports industry, the corporate world in a capitalistic system, are all areas where psychopaths naturally rise to the top.”
– Laura Knight-Jadczyk

“The American way of life has optimized the survival of psychopathy, and in a world of psychopaths, those who are not genetic psychopaths, are induced to behave like psychopaths simply to survive. When the rules are set up to make a society “adaptive” to psychopathy, it makes psychopaths of everyone. As a consequence, a very large number of Americans are effective sociopaths.”
– Laura Knight-Jadczyk

“The US and its allies will turn into authoritarian police states. They’ll all be perfectly fascist — private ownership of both consumer goods and the means of production topped by state control of both. Fascism operates free of underlying principles or philosophy; it’s totally the whim of the people in control, and they’ll prove ever more ruthless.”
– Doug Casey

“Few Americans are disturbed that 1.25 million Iraqis and an unknown number of Afghans have died as a result of American invasions… For many Americans, war is like a sports contest in which they take vicarious pleasure and cheer on their side to victory.”
– Paul Craig Roberts

“Look at the United States. The two parties are mirror images of each other. To preserve the image of democracy, both are needed, both serve the same masters. But there are no leaders in the US who are standing up and speaking about the genocide of the Palestinians. The deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis are passed over in silence. There is no room for conscience in the US government, in either party, and the control of the press, not to mention other means such as blackmail and threats, ensure that those who might speak up, don’t.”
– Henry See in The Trick of the Psychopath’s Trade

“In a country in which much of human culture has been rendered into machines for the manufacture of money, psychopaths are the ideal leaders. They are very focused. They are outcome oriented. They are frequently charming, and usually very bright and able. They can lay off thousands of people, or deny people health care, or have them waterboarded, and it does not disturb their sleep.”
– David Schwartz

“Our society is moving in the direction of permitting, reinforcing, and in some instances actually valuing some of the traits listed in the Psychopathy Checklist – traits such a impulsivity, irresponsibility, lack of remorse.”
– Robert Hare

“The problem is that authoritarian followers are much more active than the rest of the country. They have the mentality of ‘old-time religion’ on a crusade, and they generously give money, time and effort to the cause. They proselytize; they lick stamps; they put pressure on loved ones; and they revel in being loyal to a cohesive group of like thinkers. And they are so submissive to their leaders that they will believe and do virtually anything they are told. They are not going to let up and they are not going to go away.”
– Robert Altemeyer

“Money is the glue of movement conservatism, which is largely financed by a handful of extremely wealthy individuals and a number of major corporations, all of whom stand to gain from increased inequality, an end to progressive taxation, and a rollback of the welfare state – in short, from a reversal of the New Deal. And turning the clock back on economic policies that limit inequality is, at its core, what movement conservatism is all about.”
– Paul Krugman

“In the world today where information is controlled by a small number of media outlets, and those media outlets have much in common with the pathological governments, greater numbers of people can be influenced and infected with pathological thinking… Madeleine Albright in 1996 was asked about the 500,000 deaths in Iraq, mostly of children, due to the Iraq embargo. She responded that she thought ‘It was worth it’, that is, those deaths were the necessary price to pay to bring down Saddam. That is unquestionably pathological logic, and yet how many Americans would have heard that response and thought nothing of it? Anyone who, on hearing that statement, was not outraged has been infected with pathological thinking, they have been ponerized. Their thinking has become distorted by the pathological infection.”
– Henry See in The Trick of the Psychopath’s Trade

“American foreign-policy makers are exquisitely attuned to the rise of a government, or a movement that might take power, that will not lie down and happily become an American client state, that will not look upon the free market or the privatization of the world known as “globalization” as summum bonum [the highest good], that will not change its laws to favor foreign investment, that will not be unconcerned about the effects of foreign investment upon the welfare of its own people, that will not produce primarily for export, that will not easily tolerate the International Monetary Fund or the World Trade Organization inflicting a scorched-earth policy upon the country’s social services or standard of living, that will not allow an American or NATO military installation upon its soil. Given the proper pretext, such bad examples have to be reduced to basket cases, or, where feasible, simply overthrown.”
– William Blum

“Stop talking so much about democracy and instead support dictatorships of the right if their policies are pro-American.”
– U.S. Treasury Secretary George Humphrey, 1954

“If the U.S. is to survive, long-standing American concepts of “fair play” must be reconsidered. We must develop effective espionage and counterespionage services. We must learn to subvert, sabotage and destroy our enemies by more clever, more sophisticated and more effective methods than those used against us. It may become necessary that the American people be acquainted with, understand and support this fundamentally repugnant philosophy.”
– Hoover Commission report of 1954

“There is a single theme behind all our work. We must reduce population levels. Either they do it our way, through nice clean methods or they will get the kind of mess that we have in El Salvador, or in Iran, or in Beirut. Once population is out of control it requires authoritarian government, even fascism, to reduce it… The quickest way to reduce population is through famine like in Africa. We go into a country and say, here is your goddamn development plan. Throw it out the window. Start looking at your population …if you don’t …then you’ll have an El Salvador or an Iran, or worse, a Cambodia.”
– U.S. Latin American Office of Population Affairs [OPA] case officer Thomas Ferguson

Quotes – Intelligence agencies and the drug trade

“The global drug trade is controlled and run by the intelligence agencies. In this global drug trade British intelligence reigns supreme… In Britain, the MI-6 drug money is laundered through the Bank of England, Barclays Bank and other household name companies. The drug money is passed from account to account until its origins are lost in a huge web of transactions.
The drug money comes out ‘cleaner’ but not totally clean. Diamonds are then bought with this money from the corrupt diamond business families like the Oppenheimers. These diamonds are then sold and the drug money is clean.”
– James Casbolt, former MI6 Agen

“The world order doesn’t allow for any frontal attack aimed at destroying narco-trafficking because that business, which moves $400 billion annually, is far too important for the leading nations of world power to eliminate. The US punishes those countries which don’t do enough to fight against drugs (with help of rehab centres like Pacific Ridge online), whereas their CIA boys have built paradises of corruption throughout the world with the drug profits.”
– Ecuadorian Presidential Candidate Manuel Salgado

“Drug trafficking constitutes the third biggest global commodity in cash terms after oil and the arms trade. Supported by powerful interests, heroin is a multibillion-dollar business, which requires a steady and secure commodity flow. One of the hidden objectives of the war In Afghanistan was effectively to restore the CIA sponsored drug trade to its historical levels and exert direct control over the drug routes.”
– Michel Chossudovsky

“In my 30-year history in the Drug Enforcement Administration and related agencies, the major targets of my investigations almost invariably turned out to be working for the CIA.”
– Dennis Dayle, a former DEA agent in the Middle East

“The global drugs trade controlled by British intelligence is worth at least 500 billion a year. This is more than the global oil trade. The economy in Britain and America is totally dependent on this drug money.”
– James Casbolt

“Intelligence agencies and powerful business syndicates, which are allied with organized crime, are competing for the strategic control over the heroin routes.”
-Michel Chossudovsky

“The major function of secrecy in Washington is to keep the U.S. people … from knowing what the nation’s leaders are doing.”
– John Stockwell – former CIA official

“It isn’t only Gestapo maniacs who do inhuman things to people. We [the CIA] are responsible for doing inhuman things on a massive scale to people all over the world.”
– John Stockwell – former CIA official

“It is the function of the CIA to keep the world unstable, and to propagandize and teach the American people to hate, so we will let the Establishment spend any amount of money on arms.”
– John Stockwell – former CIA official

“Coming to grips with … U.S./CIA activities in broad numbers and figuring out how many people have been killed in the jungles of Laos or the hills of Nicaragua is very difficult. But, adding them up as best we can, we come up with a figure of six million people killed-and this is a minimum figure. Included are: one million killed in the Korean War, two million killed in the Vietnam War, 800,000 killed in Indonesia, one million in Cambodia, 20,000 killed in Angola … and 22,000 killed in Nicaragua. These people would not have died if U.S. tax dollars had not been spent by the CIA to inflame tensions, finance covert political and military activities and destabilize societies.”
– John Stockwell – former CIA official

“The CIA had been running thousands of operations over the years… there have been about 3,000 major covert operations and over 10,000 minor operations… all designed to disrupt, destabilize, or modify the activities of other countries… But they are all illegal and they all disrupt the normal functioning, often the democratic functioning, of other societies. They raise serious questions about the moral responsibility of the United States in the international society of nations.”
– John Stockwell – former CIA official

Quotes – The drug industry

  • The drug “industry” is under the control of a single world network.
  • The drug-related illegal economy is the biggest business in the world.
  • The British monarchy organized most of the Far East to conform to the drug traffic.
  • The Anglo-Dutch “offshore” banking system and related precious metals and gems trade were designed around illegal money.
  • The world drug traffic is a top-down operation under the immediate control of the British and allied monarchies.

– www.bibliotecapleyades.net – How the Drug Empire Works

“If governments really wanted to eradicate the vile drug trade, they could make laws that would oblige manufacturers of acetic anhydride, the most essential chemical in the manufacture of heroin, to keep meticulous records showing who buys the chemical, for what purpose and where it is going. But such unilateral action on the part of any maverick government would greatly displease the oligarchic families of Europe and the United States Establishment because these people are earning hundreds of billions of dollars each year from the drug trade.”
– Daniel Estulin

“Money laundering, according to IMF estimates for the 1990s, was between 590 billion and 1.5 trillion dollars a year. The proceeds of the drug trade are deposited in the banking system. Drug money is laundered in the numerous offshore banking havens in Switzerland, Luxembourg, the British Channel Islands, the Cayman Islands and some 50 other locations around the globe. It is here that criminal syndicates involved in the drug trade and the representatives of the world’s largest commercial banks interact. Dirty money is deposited in these offshore havens, which are controlled by major Western banks and financial institutions which have a vested interest in maintaining and sustaining the drug trade.”
– Michel Chossudovsky

“The Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank [HSBC] and related companies finance the opium trade. In this, they are acting as designated agents of the British monarchy, through the Royal Institute of International Affairs.
The world illegal drug traffic is controlled by a single group of men whose intimate ties of ownership, family, and political collaboration go back 200 years.”
– www.bibliotecapleyades.net “How the Drug Empire Works”

“Narco-dollars are channeled into “private banking” accounts in numerous offshore banking havens controlled by the large Western banks and financial institutions. The major Wall Street and European banks and stock brokerage firms launder billions of dollars resulting from the trade in narcotics.”
– “The Destabilization of Haiti” an article by Michel Chossudovsky

“If 700 billion dollars a year in illegal drug money is moved and laundered through the American and world economy, that money benefits financial markets and especially Wall Street. That’s the reason for maintaining the illegal drug trade.”
– Daniel Estulin

“No government has ever touched the system which allowed the drug trade to develop. Money-laundering is not even a criminal offense in 8 out of the 15 industrial nations. In the United States, the center of the problem, government action, is a joke: No top management has ever been charged or prosecuted for criminal money-laundering activity.”
– from the book Dope, Inc.: the international drug cartel, money-laundering, and state power, 1992

“Washington’s “war on drugs” is directed towards increasing U.S. power in Latin America. The use of drug money laundered through U.S. banks finances Washington’s trade imbalances, while the drug war increases Washington’s general influence over economic policy, allowing U.S.-based transnational corporations (TNCs) to buy Latin American public enterprises at scandalously low prices and to penetrate markets.”
– “Globalization Unmasked” an article by James Petras and Henry Veltmeyer

Quotes – Bilderberg, CFR, CoR, TLC, etc

“The master planners devised the strategy of a merger – a Great Merger- among nations.
But before such a merger can be consummated, and the United States becomes just another province in a New World Order, there must at least be the semblance of parity among the senior partners in the deal. How does one make the nations of the world more nearly equal? The Insiders determined that a two-prong approach was needed; use American money and know-how to build up your competitors, while at the same time use every devious strategy you can devise to weaken and impoverish this country. The goal is not to bankrupt the United States. Rather, it is to reduce our productive might, and therefore our standard of living, to the meager subsistence level of the socialized nations of the world.
Only a fascist-socialist dictatorship would have the power to accomplish such a “redistribution.” Notice that the plan is not to bring the standard of living in less developed countries up to our level, but to bring ours down to meet theirs coming up.
You may be assured, however, that the Rockefellers and their allies are not talking about reducing their own quality of life. It is your standard of living which must be sacrificed on the altar of the New World Order.
The Rockefeller game plan is to use population, energy, food, and financial controls as a method of people control which will lead, steadily and deliberately, into the Great Merger.”
– Gary Allen in his book The Rockefeller File

“What the Bilderberg group intends is a global army at the disposal of the United Nations, which is to become the world government to which all nations will be subservient… A UN army must be able to act immediately, anywhere in the world, without the delay involved in each country making its own decision whether to participate, based on parochial considerations?”
– Henry Kissinger at a Bilderberg meeting, Spotlight Reprint, August 1991

“A cancer is an uncontrolled multiplication of cells; the population explosion is an uncontrolled multiplication of people. We must shift our efforts from the treatment of the symptoms to the cutting out of the cancer. The operation will demand many apparently brutal and heartless decisions… The resultant ideal sustainable population will be more than 500 million but less than one billion.”
– Club of Rome statement – Mankind at the Turning Point, 1974 & Goals for Mankind, 1976

“Club of the Isles is a European cartel – centered within the City of London and headed by the House of Windsor – which controls every aspect of the global economy — banks, insurance and pharmaceutical companies, raw materials, transportation, factories, major retail groups, the stock and commodities markets, politicians and governments, media, intelligence agencies, drugs and organized crime.”
– “The Windsors’ Global Food Cartel: Instrument for Starvation” an article from Executive Intelligence Review, 1995

“The Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilateral Commission and the Bilderberger Group, have prepared for and are now implementing open world dictatorship… They are not fighting against terrorists. They are fighting against citizens.”
– Dr. Johannes Koeppi, former German Defense Ministry official and adviser to NATO

“You will not read about the Club of the Isles in any textbook or popular magazine. It is unincorporated and it has no membership lists. Yet, as an informal association of predominantly European-based royal households and princely families, the Club of the Isles commands an estimated $10 trillion in assets. It lords over such corporate giants as Royal Dutch Shell, Imperial Chemical Industries, Lloyds of London, Unilever, Lonrho, Rio Tinto Zinc, and Anglo American DeBeers. It dominates the world supply of petroleum, gold, diamonds, and many other vital raw materials; and deploys these assets not merely in the pursuit of wealth, but as resources at the disposal of its geopolitical agenda. Its goal: to reduce the human population from its current level of over 5 billion people to below 1 billion people within the next two to three generations in the interest of retaining their own global power and the feudal system upon which that power is based.”
– “The Coming Fall of the House of Windsor” an article from The New Federalist newspaper, 1994

Quotes – European heads of state

“How many people do you have to kill before you qualify to be described as a mass murderer and a war criminal? One hundred thousand? More than enough, I would have thought. Therefore it is just that [George W.] Bush and [Tony] Blair be arraigned before the International Criminal Court of Justice. But Bush has been clever. He has not ratified the International Criminal Court of Justice. Therefore if any American soldier or for that matter politician finds himself in the dock Bush has warned that he will send in the marines. But Tony Blair has ratified the Court and is therefore available for prosecution. We can let the Court have his address if they’re interested. It is Number 10, Downing Street, London.”
– Harold Pinter’s Noble Lecture, December 7, 2005

“Tony Blair’s contribution to the betterment of mankind, has included joining the United States in the Afghanistan invasion and between 1997 and 2003, in the silent cull of an average of six thousand Iraqi children a month [sanctions], instructing Britain’s UN officials to veto everything from vaccines to ventolin, insulin to incubators and intubators, paper to pencils, female hygiene appliances, to aids for children at the schools for the blind and deaf. A further million Iraqis have died since the invasion, almost certainly an underestimate…
Tony Blair has profiteered as a result of the Iraq War in which so many hundreds of thousands of people died. in the league of shame, Tony Blair is arguably the worst of them all.”
– Peter Osborne, March 2010

“The corporate-dominated economy and the transnational corporate state had consolidated its power over almost every aspect of public and private life, and under a formal globalization movement the transnational corporations were extending their tentacles all over the planet.
Footsoldiers like Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, the ever-dutiful Bush family, Helmut Kohl, and a list of Japanese leaders had diligently kept the faith. Working with the timeworn International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank and ultimately with the new engine of globalization, the World Trade Organization, they ensured that the interests of capital were nowhere endangered by the needs of the world’s three billion poor to eat, have shelter, clothing, sanitation, medical care, and education.”
– William F. Pepper in his book “An Act of State: the Execution of Martin Luther King”

“Tony Blair is a glorified salesman, selling the same snake oil to different customers.
First, he is [in Israel] to provide a façade of Western concern about mending the Middle East. He suggests that the West is committed to action even as it fails to intervene and the situation of the Palestinians generally, and those in Gaza in particular, deteriorates rapidly. He sells us the continuing dispossession of the Palestinians in a bottle labelled “peace”.
He is also here as a sort of European proconsul to advise the Americans on how to repackage their policies. The US has become aware that it has lost all credibility with the rest of the world on this issue. Blair’s job is to redesign the bottle labelled “US honest broker” so that we will be prepared to buy the product again.
His next task is to try to wheedle out of Israel any minor concession he can secure on behalf of the Palestinians and persuade Tel Aviv to cooperate in selling an empty bottle labelled “hope” as a breakthrough in the peace process.
And finally, he is here to create the impression that his chief task is to defend the interests of the Palestinians. To this end, he collects the three bottles, puts them in some pretty wrapping paper and writes on the label “Palestinian state”.”
– Jonathan Cook, 2010

“The corruption and inhumanity under Margaret Thatcher knew no borders. When she came to power in 1979, Thatcher demanded a total ban on exports of milk to Vietnam. The American invasion had left a third of Vietnamese children malnourished. I witnessed many distressing sights, including infants going blind from a lack of vitamins. “I cannot tolerate this,” said an anguished doctor in a Saigon paediatric hospital, as we looked at a dying boy. Oxfam and Save the Children had made clear to the British government the gravity of the emergency. An embargo led by the US had forced up the local price of a kilo of milk up to ten times that of a kilo of meat. Many children could have been restored with milk. Thatcher’s ban held.”
– John Pilger

“In Cambodia, Margaret Thatcher left a trail of blood, secretly. In 1980, she demanded that the defunct Pol Pot regime – the killers of 1.7 million people – retain its “right” to represent their victims at the UN. Her policy was vengeance on Cambodia’s liberator, Vietnam. The British representative was instructed to vote with Pol Pot at the World Health Organisation, thereby preventing it from providing help to where it was needed more than anywhere on earth.”
– John Pilger

“In his arms-to-Iraq enquiry, Lord Richard Scott heard evidence that an entire tier of the Thatcher government, from senior civil servants to ministers, had lied and broken the law in selling weapons to Saddam Hussein. These were her “boys”. Thumb through old copies of the Baghdad Observer, and there are pictures of her boys, mostly cabinet ministers, on the front page sitting with Saddam on his famous white couch.”
– John Pilger

“I am strongly in favor of using poisoned gas against uncivilized tribes. The moral effect should be good…and it would spread a lively terror.”
– Winston Churchill

“In time of war, the truth is so precious it must be attended by a bodyguard of lies.”
– Winston Churchill

“The death of one man is a tragedy. The death of millions is a statistic.”
– Winston Churchill

“The worst criminals of our time are the US and UK governments. Both are devoid of all integrity, all honor, all mercy, all humanity. Many members of both governments would have made perfect functionaries in Stalinist Russia or Nazi Germany.”
– Paul Craig Roberts

Quotes – Kings and queens and such

“At the center of oligarchy is the idea that certain families are born to rule as an arbitrary elite, while the vast majority of any given population is condemned to oppression, serfdom, or slavery. Oligarchs identify wealth purely in money terms, and practice usury, monetarism, and looting…
The essence of oligarchism is summed up in the idea of the empire, in which an elite identifying itself as a master race rules over a degraded mass of slaves or other oppressed victims. If oligarchical methods are allowed to dominate human affairs, they always create a breakdown crisis of civilization, with economic depression, war, famine, plague, and pestilence. A pillar of the oligarchical system is the family fortune. The continuity of the family fortune which earns money through usury and looting is often more important than the biological continuity across generations of the family that owns the fortune.”
-“The Venetian Black Nobility and the Concept of Oligarchy” an article by Dr. Webster Griffin Tarpley & James Higham

“Every British monarch since 1729 benefited immensely from the drug trade and this holds good for the present occupant of the throne.”
– John Coleman in his book The Committee of 300

“A part of the fortune of the Queen of England comes from drug trafficking.”
– Jacques Cheminade, candidate for the 2012 French presidential election

“The Dutch and British monarchs who control Royal Dutch merged their company with the Oppenheimer and Samuel’s Shell Oil and Nobel and Rothschild’s Far East Trading. Royal Dutch/Shell was born. Queen Juliana of the Dutch House of Orange and Lord Victor Rothschild are the two largest shareholders of Royal Dutch/Shell…
By 1920 Exxon, BP and Royal Dutch/Shell dominated the world’s booming oil business, with the Rockefeller and Rothschild families and the British and Dutch royals owning most of stock in the [Four] Horsemen [of oil – Exxon, RoyalDutch/Shell, Chevron, Britsh Petroleum].”
– Dean Henderson in his book “Big Oil & Their Bankers In The Persian Gulf”

“The Black Nobility are the oligarchic families of Venice and Genoa, who in the 12th century held privileged trading rights (monopolies). The first of three crusades, from 1063 to 1123, established the power of the Venetian Black Nobility and solidified the power of the wealthy ruling class. In 1204 the oligarchic families parceled out feudal enclaves to their members, and from this date, they built up power until government became a closed corporation of the leading Black Nobility families.
The European Black Nobility is responsible for the insidious entanglements of numerous secret societies and organizations, which are backed with high finance and powerful political connections. Such organizations include: Trilateral Commission, Bilderberg Group, Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), United Nations, International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Bank, Bank of International Settlements (BIS), Club of Rome, Chatham House, and many others. Present day European Black Nobility families are connected with the House of Guelph, one of the original Black Nobility families of Venice from which the House of Windsor and thus the present Queen of the United Kingdom Elizabeth II descends.”
– John Coleman in his book The Committee of 300

“The bulwark of the British financial oligarchy lies in its ageless and self-perpetuating nature, its long-range planning and prescience, its facility to outwait and break the patience of its opponents. The transient and temporal statesmen of Europe and particularly of Britain itself, who have attempted to curb this monstrosity have all been defeated by their limited tenure of confidence. Obligated to show action and results in a too short span of years, they have been outwitted and outwaited, deluged with irritants and difficulties; eventually obliged to temporize and retreat. There are few who have opposed them in Britain and America, without coming to a disgraceful end, but many, who served them well, have also profited well.”
– E.C. Knuth in his book The Empire of The City, 1946

“The intent and purpose of the Committee of 300 is One World Government and a one-unit monetary system, under permanent non-elected hereditary oligarchists. In this One World system, population will be limited by restrictions on the number of children per family, diseases, wars, and famines, until one billion people who are useful to the ruling class, in areas which will be strictly and clearly defined, remain as the total world population.
There will be no middle class, only rulers and the servants. All laws will be uniform under a legal system of world courts practicing the same unified code of laws, backed up by a One World Government police force and a One World unified military. Those who are obedient and subservient to the One World Government will be rewarded with the means to live; those who are rebellious will simply be starved to death or be declared outlaws and targeted for elimination.”
– John Coleman in his book The Committee of 300

“In fourteen years Leopold [II King of Belgium] has deliberately destroyed more lives [in the Belgian Congo] than have suffered death on all the battlefields of this planet for the past thousand years. In this vast statement I am well within the mark, several millions of lives with the mark. It is curious that the most advanced and most enlightened century of all the centuries the sun has looked upon should have the ghastly distinction of having produced this moldy and peity-mouthing hypocrite, this bloody monster whose mate is not findable in human history anywhere, and whose personality will surely shame hell itself when he arrives there–which will be soon, let us hope and trust.”
– Mark Twain in his book Eruption

“Beside [Belgian King] Leopold II – Nero, Caligula, Attilo, Torquemada, Genghis Khan and such killers of men are mere amateurs.”
– statement published in the New York World, December 3, 1905

“I do not want to miss a good chance of getting us a slice of this magnificent African cake.”
– Leopold II, King of Belgium – from 1865 to 1909

“I am the state… It is legal because I wish it.”
– Louis XIV, King of France, 1643-1715

“The people of England and indeed the English-speaking world are so brainwashed that they believe the British Royal Family is just a nice, harmless and colorful institution, and so fail to realize just how corrupt, and how all-pervading is this institution called the British Monarchy.”
– John Coleman in his book The Committee of 300

“The development of democracy in Europe and the United States took place over centuries and involved a long-drawn-out struggle between pathologically disordered and entrenched elites and the majority populations. The process was protracted and violent, primarily because it is not in the nature of those with dangerous personality disorders to compromise or relinquish power readily.”
– Ian Hughes

Quotes – Dictators

“This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector.”
– Plato

“The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power.
We are different from all the oligarchies of the past, in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just round the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal.
We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.”
– George Orwell in his book 1984

“The easiest way to gain control of a population is to carry out acts of terror. [The public] will clamor for such laws if their personal security is threatened.”
– Josef Stalin

“Terrorism is the best political weapon for nothing drives people harder than a fear of sudden death.”
– Adolf Hitler

“Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.”
– Mao Zedong

“Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.”
– Benito Mussolini

“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.”
– Adolf Hitler

“In Africa … the absence of properly functioning states leaves individuals at the mercy of thugs and thieves, whether in the form of the brutality of armed militias or the corruption of government officials… The persistence of poverty in Africa is thwarting attempts to achieve the levels of health and education, the cultures of freedom and autonomy, the institutions of law and democratic governance, and the conditions for sustainable economic growth which are needed to finally remove the continent’s pathological elites from power… Africa will need assistance to escape the tyranny of its pathological elites. A necessary first step is for rich nations to cease assisting Africa’s psychopaths, by refraining from hiding their fortunes in Western banks and from selling arms to tyrants to terrorise their own populations.”
– Ian Hughes

“In any country there must be people who have to die. They are the sacrifices any nation has to make to achieve law and order.”
– Idi Amin

“I did not join the resistance movement to kill people, to kill the nation. Look at me now. Am I a savage person? My conscience is clear.”
– Pol Pot

“In the Middle East, Washington has, since the 1950s, followed the British imperial preference for Arab aristocrats by cultivating allies that included a shah (Iran), sultans (Abu Dhabi, Oman), emirs (Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Dubai), and kings (Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Morocco). Across this vast, volatile region from Morocco to Iran, Washington courted these royalist regimes with military alliances, U.S. weapons systems, CIA support for local security, a safe American haven for their capital, and special favors for their elites, including access to educational institutions in the U.S. or Department of Defense overseas schools for their children.”
– Alfred W. McCoy and Brett Reilly

“I don’t want educated people. I want oxen.”
– Anastasio Somoza Sr, dictator of Nicaragua, 1936

“UN documents and testimony now in evidence at the UN Rwanda Tribunal, show that [Rwandan President Paul] Kagame, himself, touched off the “Rwanda genocide” by assassinating the former Rwandan President and launching an assault to seize power within minutes after shooting down President Habyarimana’s plane [in] 1994. … Because Kagame’s Rwanda crimes were covered-up by the U.S. in 1994, and because he was not prosecuted at the ICTR [International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda] for the assassination of the previous president in 1994, he has been free to rape the Congo of its riches and to massacre millions.”
– Peter Erlinder

“The mastermind of the genocide of the Rwandan interior Tutsis is [Paul] Kagame himself.”
– Guillaume Murere

“Major General Paul Kagame had personally ordered the shooting down of [Rwandan] President Habyarimana’s plane with a view to taking control of the country. He was fully aware that the assassination of Habyarimana would unleash “a genocide” against Tutsi civilians… Kagame was an instrument of Washington. The loss of African lives did not matter. The civil war in Rwanda and the ethnic massacres were an integral part of US foreign policy, carefully staged in accordance with precise strategic and economic objectives.”
– Michel Chossudovsky

“Psychopaths, pathological narcissists, and people with severe paranoid personality are psychologically incapable of conceiving of the fundamental essentials of democratic citizenship and will therefore be at the vanguard of those opposed to the success of democratisation.”
– Ian Hughes

Quotes – Religious leaders

“When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.”
– Sinclair Lewis

“The Vatican has billions of shares in the most powerful international corporations… The wealth of the Vatican in the U.S. alone, is greater than that of the five wealthiest giant corporations of the country. When to that is added all the real estate, property, stocks and shares abroad, then the staggering accumulation of the wealth of the Catholic church becomes so formidable as to defy any rational assessment… The Catholic church is the biggest financial power, wealth accumulator and property owner in existence. She is a greater possessor of material riches than any other single institution, corporation, bank, giant trust, government or state of the whole globe. The pope, as the visible ruler of this immense amassment of wealth, is consequently the richest individual of the twentieth century. No one can realistically assess how much he is worth in terms of billions of dollars.”
– from the book The Vatican Billions by Avro Manhattan, 1983

“We have the ability to take him out [Venezuelan President Hugo Chevez], and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability… If he thinks we’re trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It’s a whole lot cheaper than starting a war … and I don’t think any oil shipments will stop.”
– Pat Robertson

“Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions.”
– Jerry Falwell

“Not a single leader of the Third Reich – not even Hitler himself – was ever excommunicated.”
– Sam Harris in his book The End of Faith

“Representative democracy, exercised within the context of the separation of church and state, and the protection of individual human rights, can act as safeguards against the destructive power of religion. Where these safeguards are not in place, religion becomes a simple and effective route for the pathological minority to seize power and tyrannise societies.”
– Ian Hughes

“AIDS is not just God’s punishment for homosexuals; it is God’s punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals.”
– Jerry Falwell

“Most religions offer no valid mechanism by which their core beliefs can be tested and revised, each new generation of believers is condemned to inherit the superstitions and tribal hatreds of its predecessors.”
– Sam Harris in his book The End of Faith

“Since most if not all ‘great’ religions are constructed on falsehoods, compulsive liars make the perfect proselytizers. A look at recently created religions such as Mormonism and Scientology show their founders, Joseph Smith and L.Ron Hubbard respectively, were at least compulsive liars, and more likely full-blown psychopaths. Charismatic cult leaders such as Jim Jones and Sung Yung Moon were indeed psychopaths, while televangelist preachers that rake in millions from their gullible flocks are at best con artists of the highest caliber.”
– Stefan H. Verstappen

Quotes re “philanthropic foundations” – Carnegie, Ford, Gates, Rockefeller, Soros

“The US and UK governments’ relentless backing for the global spread of genetically modified seeds was in fact the implementation of a decades long policy of the Rockefeller Foundation since the 1930’s, when it funded Nazi eugenics research — i.e. mass-scale population reduction, and control of darker-skinned races by an Anglo-Saxon white elite. As some of these circles saw it, war as a means of population reduction was costly and not that efficient.”
– F. William Engdahl in Seeds of Destuction

“First we got population. The world today has 6.8 billion people. That’s headed up to about 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent.”
– Bill Gates

“The global financial elite of the Ford, Carnegie and Rockefeller foundations are making the plans for a one world government. The real name of the game is 1984. We will have systematic population reduction, forced sterilization or anything else which the planners deem necessary to establish absolute control in their humanitarian utopia. But to enforce these plans, you must have an all-powerful world government.”
– Gary Allen in None Dare Call It Conspiracy

“The Rockefeller Foundation, working with John D. Rockefeller Ill’s Population Council, the World Bank, the UN Development Program and the Ford Foundation, and others had been working with the WHO [World Health Organization] for 20 years to develop an anti-fertility vaccine using tetanus as well as with other vaccines.”
– F. William Engdahl

“The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation have been focused on reducing the population of poorer countries through the promotion of killer drugs such as Depo-Provera. The foundation is partnering with the British government to raise $4 billion to finance their birth control plan by 2020. This is under the guise of family planning. The foundation is also known to fund an NGO committed to children vaccination known as Gavi. This vaccine has been used on children in Malawi, India and Pakistan. In Malawi, these kids were vaccinated at gunpoint in 2011; Non-polio paralysis struck some of the kids that were vaccinated.”
– Dave Mihalovic

“The Rockefeller foundation scientists developed the idea of molecular biology from the fundamental assumption that almost all human problems could be “solved” by genetic and chemical manipulation… The people in and around the Rockefeller institutions saw it as the ultimate means of social control and social engineering — eugenics.”
– F. William Engdahl in Seeds of Destuction

“The organization of tax-exempt fortunes of international financiers into foundations was to be used for educational, scientific, and other public purposes… The inheritance tax drove the great private fortunes dominated by Wall Street into tax-exempt foundations, which became a major link in the Establishment network between Wall Street, the Ivy League, and the federal government… The foundations managed to acquire control over the primary Ivy League colleges, including Harvard, Yale, Columbia, and Princeton.”
– Carroll Quigley in Tragedy and Hope

“The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is committing 10 billion dollars over the next ten years to make it the most aggressive decade ever to roll out new vaccines to poor nations around the world. The commitment will also effectively create widespread fertility problems across vaccinated populations.”
– Dave Mihalovic

“After years of controversy in the United States, the use of oral polio vaccine (OPV) was discontinued in 2000 due to its proven link with vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV). The use of an injected and inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) replaced its usage in the Western world, while oral polio vaccine continues to be used in the developing world… There was a claim in the Indian medical press [April 2012] that some 47,500 children had been paralyzed as a direct result of the polio vaccination campaign that had swept through their populous country. India’s National Polio Surveillance Project found that a sharp rise in the cases of non-polio paralysis correlated with areas where doses of oral polio vaccine were also increased… The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the UN’s World Health Organization knew that oral polio vaccines caused paralysis.”
