Thank you, Matt! Breaking History has proven to me that even at 62, the understanding of our history (our true history) is the only way to move forward. I have a better understanding of what happened in the past but will need to reread this a few times to continue my education. Your research is amazing and helps me to see the patterns in today’s narrative. You Rock!

Excellent take on the history that led to the 20th century wars. It now becomes clear that the freedom loving people of the various nations must render these organizations obsolete and remove the corruption that has allowed these wars. We must dismantle those international entities that would lead us to WWIII. Thank you!🙏

Truly! Like the post states, if we fail here….. the world does.

Well done! I’m fairly well read and I always thought FDR was kind of a globalist. Nice to read different.

When teaching about WWI in my history classes, I always teach according to the "M.A.I.N." causes paradigm (Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, and Nationalism), ubiquitous in U.S. high school textbooks. While these factors are not incorrect, books are silent about the role of the international banking cartel, which manipulated all four of those factors. Likewise, they never mention Britain's nefarious role in the provocations which led to the War. The more I have learned lately about these things, the more I think that it's time for educators like me to find a new paradigm for teaching a great many things, as well as WWI.

I'm very glad you are here as an influencer of young minds. I always hated history in school because it was insufferably arbitrary and boring. But learning about real history is an exciting drama and education in deception. Had we been taught accurate history replete with the details that would dwarf any nonsense Hollywood production, the adage "those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it" would actually make sense and be an accurate warning for the future.

I feel like I’ve just audited a humbling class on ‘adulting’ - of global proportions. Time to go to my knees and (once again) prayerfully reassess my understanding of ‘what is’ out there.

The brief that wasn’t. 🤣.

Really good and my mind is stretched every time I come across Matt.

It’s a grieving process for me to let go what I thought about our history.

I've found that the easiest path through this period of growth is to assume that everything authority has ever told us is false, misleading, or otherwise aligned to an agenda that serves power, not peace. However, it's also important to not discard critical reasoning and rational logic. From there it becomes easier to accept corrections.

I've seen many people who wake up and then become overly paranoid about everything which then makes them prey to ideas like Flat Earth and other predatory manipulation tactics designed to overwhelm the mind.

Matthew clearly knows his history. To me, however, he meanders about while trying to fit many things into one article. Just as I focus on an idea he injects a separate subject that seems only tangentially related. Maybe it’s me. Maybe all the commenters are much smarter, or have a better grasp of history since the opinions are glowing. Having said that, I’ve always believed that a great teacher can distill a complex idea into simple enough form that even a dummy like me can understand.

I understand what you are saying. Please grant that these topics are explosively complicated sometimes and further they are fueled by irrational thought so the effort to distill 80-90 years of historical deception into a single topic is sometimes impossible. As more and more is published and exposed, others will be able to simplify and make a more coherent story until finally, maybe 3-4 years from now there will be numerous screen plays covering varying aspects of all the head games that have been going on packaged neatly for society to easily discern. Not Hollywood, but something else. Maybe Angel studios.

Anyway, we must be patient. I don't even have time to research anymore so I am very very thankful others have taken up the baton. This is the iron man of intellectual battles.

How splendid to see an old EIR article incorporated. Very bright group.

Back in the 90's I became a tax rebel against the illegitimacy and criminality of the IRS; they let me run for some years on a long leash before closing in! Thus I suddenly had extra money to spend on rebel causes and gave a large donation to the La Rouche org. Thinking they had a whale on the line they came around often plying me with every manner of book and magazine.

I must say that was an excellent education, to their praiseworthy credit.

Alas they are also very strident and cocksure in their viewpoint, much like Scientologists about L Ron Hubbard (I also immersed in their studies for 5 years--much to admire; much to avoid),,,and eventually I parted ways with both!

A fellow sovereign patriot. I too have been learning and succeeded in opting out of income tax via Revocation of Election on the public record. It's an instant 40% raise across the board. But, it's not for the faint of heart and it takes serious dedication to learn about the role of a citizen vs the role of a national and how to act correctly under equity and sovereign affairs.

You may be retired now, I still have 20 years to go but I knew in 2008 I had to stop funding the war machine. It has been the most difficult education of my life.

Thank you for a wonderful article! Until people understand history we are doomed to repeat it. After reading this article I realized what we see happening today is nothing new. Same old CB playbook!

The arrogance and hubris of the Collective West (NATO) Hegemon’s have them, tragically “hoisted on their own petard”, in their ludicrous invocation of an “Entente Misanthropy” to likewise encircle, marginalize, and ultimately destroy Russia, China, and the Global Majority of the BRICS+, who by contrast, are ascending economically, (beyond the wildest of expectations), by adopting the core tenets of the 19th Century, “American System of Political Economy”. Bravo! Brava! Bravissimo!

Adding to this exceptional article is this incredible video by MrTruthBomb2 which adds an unbelievable depth to the topic, I assure you will be flabbergasted by the audacity of our collective enemy: https://rumble.com/v4ks3tw-the-domino-theory-the-deep-state-war-series-season-one-episode-9.html

This article is an example of why I love Badlands so much. I've personally fallen into the demonization of FDR for eradicating the gold standard myself. I recently learned he was murdered, that his wife was almost definitely a Russian (Khazar, not real) communist spy, that at least 2 of his closest advisors were 100% Russian spies (I'm talking about post Bolshevik Russia, not Christian Ally Russia). So he was absolutely surrounded with subvervise influence and still managed to do good before his murder.

The quality of this article solidifies my belief in Badlands as a source for news and education, I look forward to many more. There is so much ground yet to cover. ThankQ
