These lectures are: L-1: ‘The Political Implications of the UFO Phenomenon and the ‘ET’ Myth’; and L-2: ‘The Future--Technology, Theocracy and the Thousand-Year-Reich.’ Descriptions are available in the Lecture Series section.

NEW!! A number of vitally important books are now available for download for FREE, and they can be downloaded with a modem Internet connection. They are available at: Spitfirelist.com/Books Spitfirelist.com/Books. Mr. Emory has written an Introduction to the books—a document that provides a useful overview of the development of international fascism and its relationship to the development of the phenomenon that later came to be called “globalization.”

Note also that U.S. Government documents proving Prescott Bush Sr.’s Money-Laundering on behalf of the Third Reich before and after World War II are available at a linked website, along with commentary by John Buchanan, who located the documentation. This material is discussed in FTR#435. The website containing the documents is www.debatecomics.org/BushFamilyFortune/.

New! The 1990 Archive Show “Uncle Sam and Il Duce: American Support for Mussolini and the Mythology of the Corporate State” is now available for download for FREE on MP3! This program is arguably the best post-World War II analysis of classical fascism—what Mussolini called “The Corporate State.” Check it out at: http://www.spitfirelist.com/Archives/

For the “Controlled Demolition Person” in your life: if someone you know is hooked on the “controlled demolition of the World Trade Center” disinformation vis a vis the 9/11 attacks, it is recommended For the that you refer them to this: http://www.implosionworld.com/Article-WTC%20STUDY%208-06%20w%20clarif%20as%20of%209-8-06%20.pdf

Summary of FTR#623—(Note: The massive volume of ‘For The Record’ programs about 9/11 and related topics is summarized and analyzed in the periodically-updated description for FTR#391. FTR#’s 454, 455, 456 are compilations of much of the key documentation culled from Mr. Emory’s investigation into 9/11. Along with FTR#391, they should give listeners/readers a substantive grasp of this momentous event. It is recommended that listeners use this description and e-mail it to others.) This broadcast recaps material from two For The Record programs from 1998 and 1999—almost a decade ago. Recorded as the European Monetary Union and the Euro were coming into being, the programs discuss the theories of Pan German theoretician Friedrich List, whose work provided the ideological basis for the EMU. The program also analyzes aspects of the Asian financial crisis of the late 1990’s. Observing America’s fiscal weakness, Mr. Emory ruminates about the possibility that the United States might find itself in the same boat as the Asian economies that were driven before the financial storm in the late ‘90’s. Of paramount importance are Mr. Emory’s fears that America’s financial weakness might cause other nations to flee the dollar for the Euro as the reserve currency of choice, thereby devastating the American economic landscape and precipitating the eclipse of the United States as a nation. As 2008 progresses, the dollar is crumbling and other nations are grumbling—about the possible need to abandon the dollar as the reserve currency of choice.

Progrram Highlights Include: An overview of List’s prescription for German world domination; comparison of List’s theories to the present-day European Monetary Union; comparison of a 1940 newspaper article describing the Third Reich’s prescription for a Nazi-dominated Europe and world with the present-day EMU.

  1. This broadcast recaps material from two For The Record programs from 1998 and 1999—almost a decade ago.

  2. Much of the first side of the program recaps FTR#126, detailing aspects of the Asian financial crisis of the late 1990’s.

  3. An excerpt from FTR#85 presents an overview on the formula for German world domination developed by Pan-German theoretician Friedrich List: Charles Andler, a French author, summed up certain ideas of List in his work, The Origins of Pan-Germanism, (published in 1915.) ‘It is necessary to organize continental Europe against England. Napoleon I, a great strategist, also knew the methods of economic hegemony. His continental system, which met with opposition even from countries which might have profited from such an arrangement should be revived, but, this time, not as an instrument of Napoleonic domination. The idea of united Europe in a closed trade bloc is no longer shocking if Germany assumes domination over such a bloc—and not France. [Italics are Mr. Emory’s.] Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, willingly or by force, will enter this ‘Customs Federation.’ Austria is assumed to be won over at the outset. Even France, if she gets rid of her notions of military conquest, will not be excluded. The first steps the Confederation would take to assure unity of thought and action would be to establish a joint representative body, as well as to organize a common fleet. But of course, both the headquarters of the Federation and its parliamentary seat would be in Germany. [Italics are Mr. Emory’s.]” (The Thousand-Year Conspiracy; by Paul Winkler; Charles Scribner’s Sons [HC]; 1943; pp. 15-16. This book, like Germany Plots with the Kremlin, available for download for free at: http://spitfirelist.com/Books/books.html.)

  4. The extent to which the Third Reich adopted List’s theoretical principles was set forth by journalist Dorothy Thompson. Ms. Thompson was writing in The New York Herald Tribune on May 31, 1940!The Germans have a clear plan of what they intend to do in case of victory. I believe that I know the essential details of that plan. I have heard it from a sufficient number of important Germans to credit its authenticity . . . Germany’s plan is to make a customs union of Europe, with complete financial and economic control centered in Berlin. This will create at once the largest free trade area and the largest planned economy in the world. In Western Europe alone . . . there will be an economic unity of 400 million persons . . . To these will be added the resources of the British, French, Dutch and Belgian empires. These will be pooled in the name of Europa Germanica . . .” (Germany Plots with the Kremlin; T.H. Tetens; Copyright 1953 by Henry Schuman, Inc.; Henry Schuman [Hardcover]; p. 92. This book, like The Thousand-Year Conspiracy, is available for download for free at: http://spitfirelist.com/Books/books.html.)

  5. Ms. Thompson foreshadowed the policy which the Underground Reich adopted in order to co-opt the United States. Note that, as discussed in –among other programs—FTR#’s 278, 305, 370 and 435, the Bush family was front and center in the pro-German industrial milieu. The Germans count upon political power following economic power, and not vice versa. Territorial changes do not concern them, because there will be no ‘France’ or ‘England,’ except as language groups. Little immediate concern is felt regarding political organizations . . . . No nation will have the control of its own financial or economic system or of its customs. The Nazification of all countries will be accomplished by economic pressure. In all countries, contacts have been established long ago with sympathetic businessmen and industrialists . . . . As far as the United States is concerned, the planners of the World Germanica laugh off the idea of any armed invasion. They say that it will be completely unnecessary to take military action against the United States to force it to play ball with this system. . . . Here, as in every other country, they have established relations with numerous industries and commercial organizations, to whom they will offer advantages in co-operation with Germany. . . .” (Idem.)

  6. Two video productions are being generated by a couple of documentary filmmakers. One is a DVD of a three-lecture series called “The First Refuge ..of a Scoundrel: The Relationship Between Fascism and Religion.” To more about this learn, visit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4YPCdFu7OE. In addition, there will soon be a documentary about Mr. Emory, titled “The Anti-Fascist.” For more about this project, visit: http://www.theantifascist.com/
