Agents Provocateurs and Tea Partiers

During World War II we faced Tokyo Rose, the English-speaking broadcaster of Japanese propaganda. Her purpose was to demoralize American soldiers and sailors and undermine the war effort against the fascists and the Nazis. During the Cold War, the Soviets had their own version of Tokyo Rose. They would cite American and Western sources of information in an effort to convince the world that U.S. foreign policy was imperialist and corrupt. President Reagan launched an information counter-offensive, exposing communist disinformation and propaganda. The rest is history. Soviet lies were exposed, and the Soviets lost the Cold War.

....

Russia Today is eager to publicize Alex Jones and his claims about 9/11, the Bilderbergers, bankers, and various other villains and culprits because they divert attention from the increasingly totalitarian nature of the Russian regime and the military threat that Russia still poses to American interests. This is not to say that there may be some truth in some of the claims that Jones makes about some of the groups and individuals manipulating U.S. policy. But Jones takes these claims to a ridiculous extreme, in order to create the impression that he somehow has inside information about the government and the forces behind it.

Consider the 9/11 truth movement. Jones has become the face of that movement, even though another Jones, former Obama official and communist Van Jones, is another prominent advocate of the view that America attacked itself on 9/11.

....

If we are to believe the 9/11 truth movement, the Bush Administration put the plot together-or finalized it-in a short period of time, only eight months, after Bush took office in January 2001. Then, after 9/11, an elaborate cover-up was engineered, with the connivance of top Bush officials, in order to keep the public in the dark.

Make no mistake that important questions remain unanswered about 9/11 and serious figures such as Rachel Ehrenfeld and Peter Lance have been raising them. It is mind-boggling that President Bush gave George Tenet, CIA director at the time of 9/11, a presidential Medal of Freedom. Tenet is the official who told Bush that finding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq would be a slam dunk.

An Absurd Theory

Which raises the question: if U.S. officials orchestrated 9/11, in order to go to war in the Middle East, why couldn't these same officials have planted weapons of mass destruction in Iraq in order to justify the overthrow of the Saddam Hussein regime? That would have been relatively easy, compared to the complicated and elaborate schemes required to strike the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, and then to blame the attacks on Muslim Arabs hijacking U.S. commercial aircraft.

....

Consider another individual closely associated with Alex Jones who also appears regularly on Russian TV-Webster Tarpley, a former associate of cult leader Lyndon LaRouche. Jones and Tarpley work hand-in-glove, including on Jones' films, "The Obama Deception" and "Fall of the Republic." Tarpley's mentor, Lyndon LaRouche, served prison time on financial fraud charges and operates what critics have called an anti-Semitic or neo-fascist cult.

....

Convicted con man LaRouche is considered the intellectual author of the 9/11 truth movement because he started questioning whether Muslims had staged the attacks right after they occurred. Larouche started out as a Marxist and, in a 1976 lecture, titled, "What Only Communists Know," declared his desire to bring into being "a new Marxist international..." The "inside job" theory of 9/11 is a Marxist view holding that a rogue or "imperialist" U.S. administration has covered up its own diabolical role in the events of that terrible day and blamed Muslim Arabs for the attacks. Once again, we see the propaganda theme that Muslims are poor victims of American foreign policy, cleverly diverting our attention from the very real and dangerous Islamic threat.

....

Here's what one eyewitness said happened-and it was captured on videotape: "Alex Jones shows up with a bullhorn and what can only be described as a gang of thugs, and proceeds to disrupt the entire rally, shouting over the speakers, shutting down the program, and ultimately driving off most of the participants with his obnoxious antics... [Jones] ranted on and on about the New World Order and various issues completely unrelated to the purpose of the protest, while surrounded by his personal videographers and thug-like followers."

One observer commented, "Alex Jones...[was] there to discredit the patriots by helping feed the mainstream media's effort to make the true Americans look like morons and paranoid lunatics, therefore effectively drawing attention away from the blatant and illegal disregard of our 2nd amendment rights..."

In this context, consider the fact that the LaRouche movement is behind the distribution of the photos and posters which feature Obama with a Hitler mustache. Of course, such an image is what the media hone in on, rather than what is being said at the podium-which fits LaRouche's purpose perfectly. And that purpose is to discredit the Tea Party movement.

....

A former LaRouche insider and expert on the cult suggests that Jones and Tarpley are actually competitors for the same audience but have teamed up for common purposes. He, too, has noticed LaRouche material being posted on the Alex Jones and Ron Paul websites as well as various gold bug and tea party sites.

"Since Obama won," he explained, "the cult is doing exactly what it did when Jimmy Carter was elected. It merely turned to try to be a parasite off of the right-wing anger and this time Obama is an easy target. This is the same cult that raised money and recruited among the left when Bush was in power and was being labeled a Nazi."

This observer says that what the cult is doing is "carpetbagging" at any Tea Party or right-wing meeting or website it can find: "The idea is that they just abandoned the anti-Bush propaganda and are using the anti-Obama sentiment to raise money."

They are also physically attending Tea Party meetings. He noted that the Tea Party movement in Massachusetts had a LaRouche cult member by the name of Rachel Brown address their meetings and go on their radio show. Indeed, Brown went on Tea Party radio to discuss "the British empire's drive for global fascism." It is typical of the LaRouche movement to attack the British, especially the Queen of England, for everything that goes wrong in the world. She went on that show with Harley Schlanger of the LaRouche political action committee.

....

This former LaRouche insider says that the Tea Party movement must act quickly to get rid of the odor of the LaRouche cult; otherwise, it will be used against them. He says, "I am worried about the Tea Party being connected to the cult and not publicly denouncing them for showing up like parasites."

These forces of anti-Americanism, operating under the false flag of patriotism, must be exposed for who they are-before their antics irreparably taint the responsible pro-freedom movement and defeat a once-in-a-lifetime chance to take our country back.
