Winston Churchill, a Rothschild minion, referred to the Americans traveling on
the ill-fated Lusitania as “live
bait,” just one of his tactics for involving America in World War I, which
started the flow of money from the pockets of US citizens upwards into the
vaults of the ruling elite and their banking partners. They had successfully
used the “live bait” tactic with the deaths of American sailors aboard the
USS Maine.
Banker-backed corporate moguls, via their political puppets then ordered the
military to invade the resource-rich Philippines. Meanwhile, the media vilified
and dehumanized the innocent Filipinos so that the invaders could rationalize
killing them. Industrial interests then exploited cheap labor in the islands to
extract resources while the government seized land to build military bases to
manage the population and protect those resources. While under US military
occupation, American doctors and drug companies used the Filipinos as
guinea pigs for their experimental vaccines and drugs.
To legitimize propaganda for World War I, Walter Lippmann persuaded President
Wilson to create the official Committee on Public Information (CPI), which he
did on April 13, 1917. Wilson appointed newspaper publisher, George Creel, as
chairman. Creel commissioned the nation’s artists to produce paintings, posters
and cartoons to promote the war. With the expert help of Edward Bernays, “the
father of public relations” and Sigmund Freud’s nephew, the CPI manufactured the
most atrocious hate propaganda against the Germans. Bernays manipulated public
opinion through crowd psychology, now referred to as herd mentality, his uncle
Sigmund’s specialty. Creel had a staff of persuasive wordsmiths – journalists,
writers, intellectuals and many advertisers – who later admitted they were
willing to lie, use emotional appeal, and enemy demonization to generate hate
and fear to elicit support for the war.
