                      The Theory of the "Owners" Explained
                  Goldsters Battle Godsters for World Control

                        Some Observations On the Owners
                              And Other Realities

                                By One Who Knows

  For reasons that I'm sure you share, I have chosen to be anonymous, both
as a way to protect myself, my membership in certain organizations, as
well as my sources in and out of those organizations. 

    I agree with the essential thrust of your commentary on the
Owners/Goldsters in The Geis Letter #19.  The following are some selected
point-by-point elaborations and observations,
    
  #1.  The international elite.  It is centered primarily in Europe, and
the Japanese were added in the last quarter century through the Trilateral
Commission.  This admission still sticks in the throats of more than a few
of the Owners who have a Eurocentric view of the world.  A view that most
would consider racist; but facts are facts, the ruling civilization is
based on European precepts (many imported from the Middle East) and
ancient fraternal societies.  The Japanese adapted, and are still
not-fully-trusted junior partners. 
    
  #2.  Ownership of the environment.  The Owners do believe that they own
the planet, and are operating in our best interests.  Their passion on
this issue is sometimes quite annoying.  Their key tools of ownership are
pressure from their mostly unwitting allies in the "environmental rights" 
movement, as well as several recently established organizations, the most
notable of these is the World Conservation Bank (WCB).  The WCB was
founded in Colorado in the last decade.  Its charter was formed over
several meetings in the span of a couple of years.  The keynote speaker
for their first meeting was David Rockefeller.  The WCB now owns over 25%
of Costa Rica.  They are offering "forgiveness" of Third World debt, and
will extend new credit to those countries in they put up their natural
resources as collateral. Several countries, including Peru (whose dictator
Fujimori is an Owner installed puppet), have already signed on. 
    
  #3.  Outlaw Nations.  These include countries like Iraq, that overstep
their bounds, and others, like Iran and North Korea, who are totally
opposed to the Owners.  The Owners use them as an example to control
others, as well as to distract the American and European public from their
real plans.  Remember the owners have studied the "magic' of controlling
people for centuries.  They can distract the public with a war at any
time.  That's why a certain number of outlaw countries are not only
tolerated, but necessary.  A war is the best time to consolidate control
or launch a new social agenda.  Because the public's attention is either
elsewhere, or any potential opposition is exhausted.  Witness the creation
of both the United Nations, as well as NATO, at the end of WWII, and the
League of Nations at the end of the First World War. 
    
  #4.  The American Public.  Although America is their seat of power, the
American public is difficult to control (they voted against the League of
Nations).  Their efforts to tame us since have only been partially
successful.  They must continually distract us. The CIA-led introduction
of drugs, using Air Force bases as drops during the Vietnam War, and
during the Iran-Contra activities, was a huge success.  It not only
pacified the inner cities (no more Black Panthers, or Malcolm X's), but
led directly to the creation of gangs like the bloods and Crips. White
America, conditioned by hours of watching black men dominate tough
athletic sports like basketball, will march headlong into the socialist
police-state embrace of the Owners to get protection from the black gangs. 
    
  #5.  The United Nations.  Bill Clinton has ceded control of our armed
forces to the UN.  Can you imagine the outrage if Jimmy Carter had even
suggested such a thing?  But the end of the Cold War, and the lazy,
beer-guzzling, don't-give-a-shit attitude of the American middle-class has
allowed the Owners to get control of the one group of people in America
who are still true patriots: our volunteer military, especially the
officer class. 

    The United States is the front nation for so many of these activities
because we were the first nation created by the Owners, and have starred
in their plans, and on the world stage, as a result. Practically all of
those who signed the Declaration of Independence and deliberated at the
Second Constitution Convention were Masons.  For those who believe in an
America that was once free of the Owners I have two words: grow up.  We
have never been a truly free country.  Human nature would never allow it. 
    
  However, our owners did oppose the old Royalists of Europe, as well as
the Vatican.  Neither kings nor popes were likely to embrace a world
system where they were not at the top.  In the end gold rules, not kings
or popes. 
    
  And this brings up one aspect of the owner, that conspiratorialists have
always missed.  The Owners are a community.  No one person or family
rules.  They rule by achieving a consensus of a group as "wise men."  They
all have the same goals, but occasionally differ on how to achieve those
goals and when differences arise they resolve them through debate and
argument. 
    
  This why they replaced the monarchies.  Because one man, or one family,
is usually too unstable to govern over the long run.  History showed then
that. Take many of the great conquerors throughout history: Hitler,
Napoleon, Tamerlane, Genghis Khan, Alexander Cyrus, Ashurbanipal, Thothmes
III.  None of them produced a dynasty (longer than three generations)
capable of holding onto their conquest without fragmentation, let alone
building on them.  (Cyrus is the exception, if Darius was indeed his
cousin, and not merely a clever liar.) Only empires consisting of
like-minded individuals, the Roman Senate, the British Parliament,
prospered for more than two centuries. 
 
     In the end gold rules.  I have made a study of the movement of money
down through the centuries, from the Sumerian banking dynasties of Llasa
to Sardis and on to Rome itself, Venice, and finally the City inside
London.  It took those who handled money millennia, but they finally
overthrew the monarchies, have experimented with, and, apparently,
discarded Communism, and have decided on controlled tribalism as a way to
rule the planet. 
    
  As for the dichotomy between Godsters and Goldsters (very clever labels,
Dick), I support Goldsters because under them more people have enjoyed
greater freedom than at any time.  If your is goal money, then you need
consumers, and the illusion of freedom and independence and initiative you
can give to the masses they will be, both as workers, and as consumers. 
     
  As for the Godsters, I've studied history, know what they were, and
sometimes - when given a chance - still are.  The same reactionary forces
that thrust Adolf Hitler on an unsuspecting Europe (along with some
admitted complicity and stupidity on the part of some Goldsters) are now
trying to foist the likes of Pat Robertson onto us.  At last count
Robertson's forces - the misnamed Christian Coalition, for they are truly
neither Christian, nor a Coalition, they are in reality unwitting
Theocratic shock troops - control over seventeen state republican Party
structures, and they are making some headway on recruiting black Democrat
activists. 
     

  Yes, Robertson went to Yale, and he has some small support from among
the Owners/Goldsters (among the same types who miscalculated with Hitler). 
His forces are following a scorched Earth policy in political contests,
both inside the party structure and in regular races for office. 
    
  The Godsters do not understand the meaning of compromise.  You are
either for them, or you are against them.  And if you agree with them on
95 of their agenda, but disagree with them on the rest, they will fight
you the hardest, because you are capable - if not fought - of seducing
away their Faithful. 
    
  No.  Give me the Goldsters.  At least they can be reasoned with.  And
even if I don't share all of their agenda, and even if they appear to have
the upper hand, they are still the lesser evil, representing a slightly
more evolved part of the human brain - if you will. 
    
  As for the future.  Who knows.  I suspect the future will upset
everyone's plans, and so it should be.  The human race thrives on
uncertainty, from the earliest proto-humans squatting on their haunches in
a tree as the nighttime jungle boomed with the sounds of the never ending
battle of death and destruction that is nature, to today's scientists
looking into the face of the human immune system, or into the depths of
cellular structures, or out into the seemingly uncaring vastness of
intergalactic space where entire galaxies collide and others are swallowed
up by monstrous black holes. 
    
  Face it.  We have been born into a universe of unimaginable violence, in
a galaxy swirling around a gigantic black hole, warmed by the explosive
combustion of our sun's nuclear fires, living on a planet where nature is
red of tooth and claw, and where the ultimate peace is death.  Is it any
wonder that the Christian promise of the "lion laying down with the lamb"
has such appeal, or that Hindu nirvana is the extinction of the "flame of
life" itself. 
    
  The wonder is that we try at all. 
    
  Ultimately both Goldsters and Godsters will remain with us as long as we
remain human, and since we are human, with the evolutionary imperative to
spread as far and wide as possible;  our best hope is spaceflight.  To
truly be fruitful and multiply we must spread out so fast that no single
group could ever hope to control the human race. 
    
 In any case I suspect that it represents a synthesis of these two
competing "hard-wired" world views.  Or maybe I'm just a sentimental old
fool whose hopes and dreams are infinitely larger than my abilities. 

  The above paragraph has in it the seeds of the pure creed of Science 
Fiction. If SF can be said to have a creed.
    
  In any case, Dick, thanks for the thought-provoking commentary, and the
opportunity to pontificate. 
 I hope  you and  your  readers  have enjoyed  it.   And always remember,  never  look back, something may be gaining
on you!'

    Richard E Geis COMMENT:  Gaining!  I feel its hot breath on my ass! 

    As for mankind, the most optimistic argument I can make is this:  That
the evolution of intelligence in humans is the single most important fact
of life on Earth over the past 100,000 years. 

    As intelligence increases, the conscious Self becomes more aware, more
important and more powerful. As intelligence increases, the instincts
(which powerfully govern the lives of other, less intelligent primates and
animals) recede in influence in humans.  And as the individual uses
intelligence to independently understand and manipulate his environment to
his advantage (to the extent that he is able to divorce from the automatic
answers and behaviors given by instincts) he becomes to anever-greater
extent a 'spiritual', self-driven personand more nearly in possession of
free will.  The trend is toward greater intelligence inhumans. 

    Therefore rationality will govern more and more of our lives and allow
a more peaceful, wealthy, cooperative, healthy future for the species. 

    A successful evolutionary experiment.

    A different optimism envisions continuing, desperate competition, ever
more acute survival of the fittest among "tribes", eventually a keen,
ruthless mankind bursting out into the galaxy with unimaginable high-tech
savagery to destroy every alien civilization we encounter and conquer the
sevagram. 

A successful evolutionary experiment. 

   The most pessimistic argument is that our intelligence has been
obviously used to serve our still-ruling emotions and instincts, and that
our intelligence will continue to be used to satisfy greed, lust and
hatred until we have thoroughly fouled our planet, killed billions of our
fellows, run out of natural resources to exploit, and by inevitable
declines fall back into a sustainable, stone-age civilization, eventually
to be extinguished bya surging, more intelligent species. 
    
  Our destiny is not the stars, but the pits: a failed evolutionary
experiment;  primate super intelligence doesn't work.  Maybe crustacean? 

    What a great time to be alive! what a great time to be dodging bullets
and watching the parade!
