The Pax Americana that followed [World War II], deep down, was itself of dubious value: it began with a nuclear holocaust, brought affluence to the West perhaps, but gave very little by way of peace to the rest of the world. And what was left to feel of the defeated West was dismal: Germans and Italians had been reduced to a couple of emptied out, identityless tribes.
-Guido Giacomo Preparata (2005)
In Part 1 of this series, I argue that President Franklin D. Roosevelt baited Japan into attacking Pearl Harbor, thus manipulating Americans into supporting World War II. In Part 2, I show that the U.S.A.’s entry into the war had nothing to do with the Holocaust, which it did little to end. In this part, Part 3, I explain why the U.S. entered the war: it was about power.
The U.S. entered World War II due to British — and not American — influence. Namely, the British were afraid that a powerful Germany would unite with an ascendant Russia, and that the two powers would subsequently pose a challenge to the British empire. American elites, wanting to cement an Anglo-American world order, were simply playing to British interests.
In other words, World War II was about realpolitik. Nothing else.
To understand this, we need to briefly touch upon the roots of the Anglo-American alliance, and what it meant for global affairs. Let’s start this story with a prominent English diamond merchant.
The Man Who Owned South Africa
Cecil Rhodes (1853-1902) is one of history’s most important men, and yet few have heard of him. After establishing the world’s largest diamond company (with Rothschild financing), Rhodes successfully lobbied the British government to conquer South Africa. Without Rhodes, Britain’s status as the dominant imperial power in the late 19th Century would not have come to fruition; more importantly, Rhodes created institutions which continue to perpetuate his vision.
In 1891, Rhodes and two other men met in London to form a secret society. By this time, Rhodes was Prime Minister of the Cape Colony (South Africa). The two other men were William Stead, a newspaper editor, and Reginald Baliol Brett, a nobleman and close confidant of Queen Victoria. In this triad were united the titans of English business, journalism, and politics.
The resulting secret society, “The Society of The Elect,” was to be governed by Rhodes and a “Junta of Three”: Stead, Brett, and Alfred Milner. Milner was a lawyer and prominent official in British-governed Egypt. Rhodes’s secret society included academics, statesmen, journalists, and businessmen. It came to dominate British politics for much of the 20th Century.
Carroll Quigley, a Georgetown University professor and expert on Rhodes’s group, writes of its key role in British history:
This organization has been able to conceal its existence quite successfully, and many of its most influential members, satisfied to possess the reality rather than the appearance of power, are unknown even to close students of British history. This is the more surprising when we learn that one of the chief methods by which this Group works has been through propaganda. It plotted the Jameson Raid of 1895; it caused the Boer War of 1899-1902; it set up and controls the Rhodes Trust; it created the Union of South Africa in 1906-1910; it established the South African periodical The State in 1908; it founded the British Empire periodical The Round Table in 1910, and this remains the mouthpiece of the Group; it has been the most powerful single influence in All Souls, Balliol, and New Colleges at Oxford for more than a generation; it has controlled The Times for more than fifty years, with the exception of the three years 1919-1922, it publicized the idea of and the name "British Commonwealth of Nations" in the period 1908-1918, it was the chief influence in Lloyd George's war administration in 1917-1919 and dominated the British delegation to the Peace Conference of 1919; it had a great deal to do with the formation and management of the League of Nations and of the system of mandates; it founded the Royal Institute of International Affairs in 1919 and still controls it; it was one of the chief influences on British policy toward Ireland, Palestine, and India in the period 1917-1945; it was a very important influence on the policy of appeasement of Germany during the years 1920-1940; and it controlled and still controls, to a very considerable extent, the sources and the writing of the history of British Imperial and foreign policy since the Boer War.
In summary, this secret society was behind many of the major events in the early 20th Century.
Part of Rhodes’s purpose in creating this organization was “the ultimate recovery of the United States of America as an integral part of the British empire,” as he wrote in his will. In other words, Britain was to control the U.S. like it did prior to 1776, with a view to expanding its empire. To this end, members of Rhodes’s secret society, the Round Table Group, infiltrated top foreign policy positions.
The American Elite
Just as most Brits have not heard of Cecil Rhodes, most Americans have not heard of ‘Colonel’ Edward Mandell House, one of the most important Americans who ever lived. House groomed the quiet Woodrow Wilson to become President of the United States. Under Wilson’s Presidency, House exerted considerable influence to align American interests with British ones.
House, an Anglophile, fantasized about a union between the U.S. and Great Britain, even writing about it in his 1912 novel, Philip Dru. The idea would be to spread Anglo-Saxon values around the world. To this end, and as Wilson’s chief confidante, House engineered the U.S.’s entry into World War I. He also did his utmost to prevent Germany, Britain, and France from negotiating a ceasefire, and pushed Wilson into declaring war in 1917.
In September of that year, Wilson formed a secret society called “The Inquiry,” headed by House. After the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, this group morphed into “The Institute of International Affairs,” and counted British and American diplomats among its members. In New York City, they held meetings under the name, The Council on Foreign Relations, which continues to steer American foreign policy to this day.
(The Council on Foreign Relations is a direct descendant of Cecil Rhodes’s original “Society of the Elect,” and is responsible for, among other things, the hawkish tone in recent American policy.)
This Anglo-American elite manipulated events towards closer cooperation between the U.S. and Britain. Their main threat was the ever-present danger of closer ties between Germany and Russia.
The German-Russian Threat
In the 19th Century, Russia and Germany grew stronger in their diplomatic and military ties, hence threatening England, which viewed their collective might as a challenge to its Empire.
In 1873, German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck secretly negotiated the League of the Three Emperors, an alliance between Russia, Germany, and Austria-Hungary. Russia’s 1878 victory over the Ottoman Turks, a British ally in the Balkans and Middle East, created more tensions. The Russian victory secured independence for Romania, Serbia, Bulgaria, and Montenegro.
Ultimately, the alliance between Russia and Austria-Hungary broke down because each had territorial interests in the Balkans. The League of Three Emperors disintegrated in 1887, and relations between Germany and Russia ended by 1890, due to the former’s support for Austria-Hungary.
Into this vacuum, the crafty British came and negotiated the Triple Entente, a military alliance between France, Great Britain, and Russia. The British had accomplished their goal of isolating Russia from Germany, and it was all thanks to Cecil Rhodes’s Round Table members.
After World War I, the Anglo-American elite continued to work their machinations, supporting the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party on the one hand, while surreptitiously allowing the Soviet Union to develop its own brand of insane communism. The Angloid planners expected that stirring extremism in Germany and Russia would fraction relations between the two nations.
Conclusion
Yes, I am suggesting that the Anglo-American elite, not Hitler, are responsible for World War II. Not only is the United States not the victim in this whole affair — elite Americans are arguably the belligerents.
As I have documented here, the Anglo-American elite were obsessed with resurgence of a glorious Anglo-American empire which would rule the world. They were, in effect globalists, and their main threat was a strong military alliance between Germany and Russia. They therefore approved of the rise of Hitler, in Germany, as a counterbalance to a growing Russian communist state.
This is not a conspiracy theory. There are excellent historical records which prove this unequivocally. To find out why, you will have to wait for my next Substack article.
Very nice post. Guido Giacomo Preparata's book "Conjuring Hitler" is quite excellent. "[The British] were, in effect globalists, and their main threat was a strong military alliance between Germany and Russia. They therefore approved of the rise of Hitler, in Germany, as a counterbalance to a growing Russian communist state." This is exactly correct!
This is the same logic which explains why globohomo recently blew up the Nordstream 2 pipeline, i.e. in order to prevent further Russian/German integration.
