Since The New American is a publication of the John Birch Society, it is probably just a matter of time until posting from it is banned on FR, or possibly the JBS is more responsible these days.

The other drawback of conspiracy and anti-Semitic resources being allowed on a website is that kooks will completely take over unless there are hard restrictions on them.

I guess we’ll find out.

The New American even calls out the PLO as Terrorists.

Who's Who in Terrorism

PLO/al-Fatah. For nearly four decades, the PLO has been the largest, wealthiest, and most politically connected terrorist organization in the world. For most of that time, it was held in the firm grip of Yasser Arafat's iron fist. But Arafat was not the fierce, independent actor he posed as; he was completely dependent on the Soviet KGB and its surrogate Warsaw Pact intelligence services for arms, training, logistical support, funds, and direction. His KGB handlers included Vasali Samoylenko, Vladimir Buljakov, and Soviet "Ambassador" Alexander Soldatov. Arafat's closest friend and head of PLO intelligence, Hani Hassan, was actually an agent of the DIE, the Romanian subsidiary of the KGB.

Former DIE chief General Ion Pacepa reported in a 2003 Wall Street Journal article:

I was given the KGB's "personal file" on Arafat. He was an Egyptian bourgeois turned into a devoted Marxist by KGB foreign intelligence. The KGB had trained him at its Balashikha special-ops school east of Moscow and in the mid-1960s decided to groom him as the future PLO leader. First, the KGB destroyed the official records of Arafat's birth in Cairo, replacing them with fictitious documents saying that he had been born in Jerusalem and was therefore a Palestinian by birth.

During the 1960s and '70s, Arafat and the PLO did not hide their Marxist ideology and openly proclaimed their solidarity with the Soviet Union, Communist China, Communist Cuba, and every other Marxist dictatorship. But in recent years, as communist-backed "Islamic fundamentalist" groups like Hamas have gathered more popular support, the PLO leadership has attempted to portray itself as authentically Muslim. It has adopted more religious rhetoric and used Muslim names and symbols, even naming Islam as the official and exclusive religion of Palestine in the 2003 Palestinian constitution. Since Arafat's death in 2004, veteran PLO hand Mahmoud Abbas has tried, unsuccessfully, to fill his shoes.

Hamas swept to power in the 2006 parliamentary elections (winning 76 seats to Fatah's 43), and in June 2007 Hamas' military took control of the Gaza Strip in a series of gun battles through the streets of Gaza's cities that left 120 people dead and hundreds more wounded. Three of the four so-called Quartet of Middle East peace brokers — the United States, United Nations, and European Union — announced their I backing for Abbas and the PLO and their rejection of Hamas. The remaining member of the quartet, Russia, has been playing both sides. During the last week of July, Mahmoud Abbas visited Putin in Moscow, seeking his endorsement. Putin gave it, but didn't rule out continuing negotiations and relations with Hamas. "I want to assure you that we will support you as the lawful leader of the Palestinian people," Putin told Abbas at their July 31 meeting.

Just a couple of many examples.

The JBS was demonized in the 1960’s and its belief system that setting up what we now call a “New World Order” was pro-Communist was not right.

But the reality remains that business and political elites are now building a world system of government.

The persistent claim that Pres. Eisenhower was a communist agent is what destroyed the JBS reputation.

It was an out-of-context partial quote by Robert Welch in the early 1950s written in a private then-unpublished research paper years before the creation of the John Birch Society.

Welch’s claims about Eisenhower are historical. Welch published “The Politician” in 1963. William F. Buckley and the salvagers of modern conservatism were not mistaken in their attitude toward the JBS.

Robert Welch published his research article because people made a big deal about the out-of-context quote.


The Politician: A look at the political forces that propelled Dwight David Eisenhower into the Presidency
Originally intended to be an unpublished letter to friends, "The Politician" became one of the most provocative books in American history. A timely foreword explains the continuing significance of Welch's expose' of the forces that propelled Dwight D. Eisenhower into the presidency.

Ezra Taft Benson, former Secretary of Agriculture in the Eisenhower Administration, agreed with Robert Welch in his assessment of Eisenhower.

Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson: Robert Welch was Right about Eisenhower

A confidential letter from Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson said John Birch Society founder Robert Welch was right about the tragic effect of Eisenhower's policies toward Communism.


(1966) Shocking Statement from Ezra Taft Benson, former Secretary of Agriculture
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQ7LcplfkgY

Ezra Taft Benson, former Secretary of Agriculture in the Eisenhower Administration.


Ezra Taft Benson met with USSR's Nikkita Khrushchev in 1959 and relates this present day warning:


"As we talked face-to-face, he indicated that my grandchildren would live under Communism. After assuring him that I expected to do all in my power to assure that his, and all other grandchildren, would live under freedom, he arrogantly declared, in substance:


'You Americans are so gullible. No, you won't accept communism outright, but we'll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you'll finally wake up and find you already have communism. We won't have to fight you. We’ll so weaken your economy until you’ll fall like overripe fruit into our hands.' "

Its important to remember that the elites do want “world order” and they think its a good idea.

It may not be communist, but it is not the kind of system envisioned by the authors of the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution of the United States.

Trey Gowdy, chair of the Immigration and Border Security said his "conservative" constituents are "open" to a path-to-citizenship if "the border is secured." Gowdy: My CONSERVATIVE constituents say if border secured, then maybe a path to citizenship for illegals

I am not in his district. If you are,please ask him what the hell is going on. I can't see the whole SC ping list, so feel free to ping more SC freepers.

Cruz is at 90% because he voted nay on:

"On the Amendment S.Amdt. 965 to S. 954 (Agriculture Reform, Food, and Jobs Act of 2013): To permit States to require that any food, beverage, or other edible product offered for sale have a label on indicating that the food, beverage, or other edible product contains a genetically engineered ingredient."

Cruz voted against state gov forcing all companies to label ingredients as GMO when they may not have total control of their commodity supply chain. Companies can always label their products as "free of GMO" ingredients, but it's a lot harder to know and certify every genetic source of a blended commodity.

Cruz was right in voting against Bernie (the commie) Sanders' amendment. I call bull on this score.
