It is, in fact, precisely the "Rhodes Scholar" angle that really scares me about this guy. How much do you know about Cecil Rhodes and the whole Rhodes Scholar "White World Domination" plan?
"The idea gleaming and dancing before ones eyes like a will-of-the-wisp at last frames itself into a plan. Why should we not form a secret society with but one object, the furtherance of the British Empire and the bringing of the whole uncivilised world under British rule, for the recovery of the United States, for the making the Anglo-Saxon race one Empire. What a dream, but yet it is probable, it is possible." -- Cecil Rhodes, June 2, 1877
A summary More information
Much has been written about British diamond magnate Cecil Rhodes, founder of the Rhodes Scholarship. Briefly, he was dedicated to establishing a one-world government controlled by a small group of elite -- a world view he received from John Ruskin, his professor at Oxford.
After making his fortune in diamonds, Rhodes established a secret society in the form of a scholarship to promote this ideal should it fail to materialize before his death.
Rhodes biographer Sarah Millin wrote: "The government of the world was Rhodes' simple desire."
In a letter to close friend and publisher W. T. Stead (fall of 1890) Rhodes described his plan: "The key of my idea discussed with you is a Society, copied from the Jesuits as to organization ... an idea which ultimately (leads) to the cessation of all wars and one language throughout the world ... The only thing feasible to carry this idea out is a secret one [society] gradually absorbing the wealth of the world to be devoted to such an object ... Fancy the charm to young America ... to share in a scheme to take the government of the whole world!"
Rhodes also told Stead that scholars should possess the following traits: "smugness, brutality, unctuous rectitude, and tact." Webster's dictionary defines "unctuous" as "oily in speech or manner; plastic; moldable; characterized by a smug, smooth pretense of spiritual feeling, fervor, or earnestness, as in seeking to persuade."
Rhodes was intimately linked with the one-world money cabal of his time which was ensconced in New York and England. From this shadowy network of wealthy industriasts emerged Edward Mandell House, close friend and advisor to President Woodrow Wilson who said of House, "His thoughts and mine are one."
House penned a schlocky novel entitled, Philip Dru: Administrator - A story of Tomorrow (1912) in which he described as "my ethical and political faith."
It was recognized as a blueprint for a takeover of America which has been followed nearly to the letter.
Philip Dru embodies the political faith of all one-world dreamers from earliest times to our present day.
While there are many comparisons to be made, the ideal of an "enlightened despot" is most pertinent to many of today's modern leaders.
In House's book the fictional Philip Dru leads a putsch against the constitutional government of the United States.
He arrives in Washington "panoplied in justice and with the light of reason in his eyes ... the advocate of equal opportunity ... with the power to enforce his will."
With a "quivering heart" Dru contemplates injustice. He assumes "the powers of a dictator, distasteful as it is to him", abolishes the constitutional government and replaces it with an omni-competent "positive" government in which "the property and lives of all were now in the keeping of one man."
The hidden oligarchy behind Dru unites the Western Hemisphere under one political organization, led by Philip Dru, which is then integrated into a world government in which "the property and lives of all were now in the keeping of one man."
Dru then decrees that any attempt to restore the Constitution to be "seditious, and would be punished by death."
Gen. Wesley K. Clark, the retired NATO Supreme Commander, and current military analyst for CNN, has an interesting Jewish background -- although one could hardly call him Jewish. Clark appeared before a Jewish charitable group in 1999 and told the group that he had recently discovered that his father was Jewish. His father died when Wesley was a few years old. His mother, who was not Jewish, remarried a non-Jewish man who adopted Clark and gave him his name. Clark knew virtually nothing about his father as he grew up -- his questions got no answers. When he became famous, several members of his father's extended Jewish family contacted him. He was happy to meet his father's family and he says that is proud of his extended Jewish family. However, Clark is a devout Catholic
