MacGregor and O’Dowd – authors of Two World Wars and Hitler: Who Was Responsible?1 – have created a narrative that could make you sing were it not for the tragedy and evil wrought by the perpetrators of what was, in effect, a 30-year war on Germany. That last sentence in no way exonerates Hitler and his Nazi cabal. It does not diminish the horrific crimes of that madman and his death machine. But it does convey a narrative – one skillfully weaved by the authors – that is becoming increasingly difficult for the Court Historians (fast becoming Court Jesters) to suppress. The authors’ revisionist narrative is a robust repudiation of received history – a history they convincingly characterise as “a tapestry of lies”. The ineluctable conclusion they have drawn:
“Germany was not responsible For the First World War in any shape or form. Thereafter, Hitler and the Nazis (utter disasters for Germany and the world) were fomented and funded by the very same group of Anglo American elites who were responsible for the 1914-18 war. They very deliberately created the terrible hunger, dreadful living conditions, and resentment in Germany in the immediate post First World War years that encouraged fascist reactionaries such as Hitler to come to the fore. They positioned British and American intelligence agents directly alongside … Hitler to coach him and groom him for power. They played a major role in burning the Reichstag that enabled Hitler to seize dictatorial power and destroy democracy. They funded Hitler and the building of his massive Nazi war machine. They encouraged Hitler to send his forces into Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Poland. They sent Hitler 26 tons of gold that belonged to Czechoslovakia. They very deliberately spurned all approaches by the German resistance for help in removing Hitler. In short they very deliberately created the Frankenstein monster that led Germany to disaster.”2
Crucial to unpicking the causes of World War I is understanding where the story begins. The Establishment-approved version of history would have us believe that it starts with the assassination of the Austro-Hungarian heir to the throne by Serbian nationalist fanatics, with Germany seizing the opportunity to wage a war of aggression against the major European powers. A basic understanding of the power dynamics and alliances prevailing at the time renders this highly improbable. Germany was not foolish enough to believe that it could prevail in a war against France, Russia, and Britain. But Germany failed to see that a trap long in the making had been set for it by the Triple Entente powers, and it was reluctantly dragged into the war.
The construction of this trap was the brainchild of a secret society (the Milner Group) founded by the arch-imperialist Cecil John Rhodes, and subsequently led by Sir Alfred Milner after Rhodes’ death in 1902. All Souls College, Oxford, was an incubation vessel for the key members of this group, who, from its inception in 1891, were obsessed with the threat posed to British imperialism by a united Germany and Russia. They were greatly influenced by another Oxford academic – geographer and explorer Halford Mackinder. As explained by the authors:
“Mackinder believed that whoever controlled the Eurasian heartland would control the world. The gateway to the heartland was Eastern Europe, and should Germany or Russia, or both working together, gain control of Eastern Europe in the foreseeable future, they would control the gateway to the Eurasian heartland and its massive resources. No matter how great the navies of Britain and America were, the heartland would be inaccessible to them, rendering their naval power useless. If Germany and Russia came to control the Eurasian heartland, they would control the world, not Britain.” [emphasis added]
The destruction of Germany became the Milner Group’s key imperative, and if Russia could be enticed into the role of accomplice while contributing to its own decrepitude, all the better for the imperial psychopaths. The 30,000-foot aerial view I am describing is obviously no substitute for a full account of the Machiavellian intrigue behind the 20th century’s greatest disasters. Be prepared to be thoroughly surprised by the pivotal role played by the less-than-glamourous King Edward VII, Queen Victoria’s first son, who was “a womaniser, glutton, fat, balding, obsessed with uniforms and decorations” when he was crowned King in 1902. His signature achievement was in the creation of the Triple Entente, driven in part by his deep loathing of his nephew, Kaiser Wilhelm II. His animosity towards the Kaiser was probably not helped very much by the fact that his mother spoke of Wilhelm as “a clever, dear, good little child” while being utterly exasperated with her eldest son’s “gambling, alcohol consumption, and trysts with married women.”
In an observation that will probably not come as a surprise to readers of this blog, the authors note that “the Rothschild family were an integral part of Edward VII’s cosmopolitan social circle.” The crown prince’s decadence presented the Rothschilds with the opportunity to provide a £160,000 mortgage on Sandringham (£25 million in today’s money), leading Queen Victoria to despair over the future of the country under Bertie’s rule.

Why does this history matter now? It matters because, as awful as the Nazis were, those who gave succour to them, then used and duped them, have won. That tells us everything we need to know about the value system of the Anglo-American Establishment. In fact, no sooner had the curtain closed on their European blood bath of World War 2 than the Anglo-American Establishment sent a message to Russia and the world. True to their values, that message was written in blood – the blood of hundreds of thousands of Japanese citizens in Hiroshima and Nagasaki whose lives were extinguished in August 1945 under the pretext of defeating an already defeated Japanese army. The message was clear: “we have not finished.”
It matters because nearly every single major blow to freedom since 1945 has the fingerprints of this fiendish cabal on it. There is a transparent through-line from two world wars and Hitler to the destruction of Ukraine and the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza today. Littering that line is a macabre catalogue of the Establishment’s handiwork since 1945, of which the readers of this blog are only too sickeningly aware.
It matters because the Anglo-American Establishment’s successors have not yet succeeded in a mission that gives new meaning to totalitarianism – the total control of humanity and the earth’s resources. In 2003, an influential member of the Anglo-American Establishment, the billionaire David Rockefeller, wrote in his memoirs:
“Some even believe we [the Rockefellers] are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United states, characterising my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure – one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I’m proud of it.” [ix]
