A Certain Arrogance by George Michael Evica

[John Bevilaqua]

The Arrogance of Blue Bloods, Unitarians and Eugenicists...

Here is a great book that focuses on many issues I first surfaced before 2000 about

The Pioneer Fund, Draper's Unitarian associates, Frederick Osborne, The Paines, and

Allen Dulles. Albert Schweitzer College figures very intricately into his thesis.

Did you know that Robert Welch was a Unitarian and some of Draper's Carolina cohorts

as well like Harry Weyher and some of the members of the Board of Directors of

The Pioneer Fund?

The book could be called The Unitarian Connection... We are better than everyone.

Our blood is so pure we stockpile red blood cells and our own plasma so we do not have to get

transfusions from strangers and those who come from the shallow end of the gene pool.

Short Summary of A Certain Arrogance

By George Michael Evica Posted: September 15, 2006

A Certain Arrogance: U.S. Intelligence's manipulation of Religious Groups and Individuals in Two World Wars and the Cold War-and the Sacrificing of Lee Harvey Oswald by George Michael Evica. Now available from XLIBRIS, Amazon, Last Hurrah Bookshop, and others.

A Certain Arrogance is based on six years of research and writing and tens of thousands of never-before-examined documents archived at Harvard Divinity School, Andover-Harvard Theological Library, Cambridge, Massachusetts; at the Unitarian/Universalist Service Committee offices in Cambridge; and in Boston at the Unitarian/Universalist Association headquarters.

American intelligence, led by Allen Dulles, manipulated major religious groups through two World Wars and the "Cold War." In Switzerland, Liberal Protestantism created Albert Schweitzer College, supported in the United States by the Unitarian Church, the Unitarian Service Committee, and the American Friends of Albert Schweitzer College, dominated by elite Unitarians with U.S. intelligence ties. American intelligence apparently used Albert Schweitzer College in cooperation with assets of the Office of Strategic Services and the CIA, key policy?makers for Albert Schweitzer College. In 1959, Lee Harvey Oswald, exhibiting extremely suspicious intelligence signals, registered for Albert Schweitzer College; four years later, Oswald was framed for JFK's murder, and the truth about the Swiss college was, until now, suppressed.

Assisted by the support of a community of religious individuals and groups, the author of A Certain Arrogance establishes that Lee Harvey Oswald, a reputed defector to the Soviet Union, was apparently supplied by U.S. intelligence with official but deliberately faulty military and travel documents in order to apply to Albert Schweitzer College. That application linked him directly to a powerful group of American Unitarians, key assets of the Office of Strategic Services and then the CIA, first in the fight against Nazi Germany and later in the struggle against international Communism.

Among those elite Unitarians was Percival Flack Brundage, champion of economic and covert actions of the U.S. war machine when he held important leadership positions in the Bureau of the Budget, as president of the American Friends of Albert Schweitzer College, and as a key member of the U.S. intelligence fraternity that ran psychological warfare and critical covert operations. Both Allen Dulles and John Foster Dulles were important actors in that dark spy community.

Lee Harvey Oswald, obviously the product of a U.S. intelligence False Identity/"Illegals" program, was ultimately patsied on November 11, 1963 in the JFK murder

"A Certain Arrogance"

A Book Review

by Robert D. Morningstar

November 22, 2006

Oh, how terrible and barbarous are those Islamic Fundamentalists! How devious and demonic appear those Mullahs and Ayatollahs shown to us on CNN and Fox News each day and night, manipulating and perverting the religious teachings of a "religion of peace" to indoctrinate young minds towards self-destruction, suicide bombing and terrorism. How perverse of them it is to use religion as an excuse to attain political and military objectives. And, Oh, how much more moral are we than they! We, the self-righteous, morally and ethically "superior" Westerners who eschew such debased use of religious dogma as propaganda and mass mind-control tactics in the indoctrination of our own citizens.

"Not so!" might say Professor George Michael Evica, an outstanding and well-respected expert of JFK Assassination and US Intelligence History, through his riveting new book, entitled "A Certain Arrogance." In "A Certain Arrogance" (Iron Sights Press, 2006), Professor Evica reveals the history of the recruitment and indoctrination of US intelligence assets (spies/assassins) for OSS and CIA beginning during World War II when, through the work of OSS members Wild Bill Donovan and Allan Dulles, religious institutions, particularly, the Unitarian Church and the Quaker movement, were used as "fronts" in the selection and culling of candidates for espionage and special operations by America's intelligences services, OSS and CIA, domestically and abroad.

From OSS World War II operations in Switzerland to the Congo of the 1950s and 1960s to Patrice Lamumba University in Moscow, Evica takes the reader on a meticulously documented tour of international intrigues involved in the training of intelligence operatives through their education and indoctrination at various institutions run by religious organizations. Foremost among these in American intelligence gathering and special operations were the Unitarian Church and the Quakers. However, Evica shows us that these are not the same Quakers we think of when we remember the warmth and quiet courage of Gary Cooper and "Friendly Persuasion."

Professor Evica begins his chronicle of covert operations with the recruitment, education and indoctrination of Lee Harvey Oswald as began his peregrinations in 1958-59 toward his defection to Russia by passing through Switzerland's Albert Schweitzer College, where the CIA and FBI maintained contacts and operatives.

Evica chronicles the historic role of the Rockefeller clan in funding "missionary activities throughout the world" for intelligence gathering and suppression of undesirable activist social movements beginning in the early 188o's to gather intelligence information in order to quash American Indian activities in the West. Evica states:

"As early as 1883, the Rockefellers had 'used [Christian] missionaries to gather intelligence about [Native American] insurgencies in the West or to discourage them.' In the United States and later throughout Central and South America, Family Rockefeller power was linked to Christian missionary work."

The Rockefeller method of using Christian military activities in conjunction with financial power proved to be so successful in consolidating the Rockefeller Empire in the Americas that it was then employed in the Far East, in China, Korea, Philippines and Taiwan. By 1957, the Rockefellers had enlisted American Fundamentalist Revivalism as a national power base and put their support behind the evangelist, Billy Graham.

Evica's book takes the reader back and forth across continents and oceans both to the Far East, Korea and Nationalist Taiwan, and to Europe, but always after short side trips, Evica returns the travels of Lee Harvey Oswald as he made his way inevitably to Dallas, Texas and the site of the JFK Assassination.

Ruth and Michael Paine

A Quaker & A Unitarian

Lee Oswald's Dallas "Handlers"

Throughout his meandering journey, Oswald repeated encounters operatives of Unitarian, Quaker and Southern Baptist Fundamentalist missionary activities. For example, Oswald's "friends" and hosts in Dallas, Michael and Ruth Paine, who took Marina Oswald under her wing, were associated with both the Unitarian and the Quaker missionary movements. Evica suggests (as this writer has often asserted) that Michael Paine, "a physical Oswald double," may have acted in that capacity to bring attention in a negative way to Oswald's activities by setting up "political confrontations" at Southern Methodist University on Sundays after attending as "a communicant at a 'nearby' Unitarian Church."

The religious intrigues surrounding the life and death of Lee Harvey Oswald, as detailed and documented by Evica in this masterful work, shed a disturbing light on the events in Dallas on November 22, 1963 and suggest an almost direct link to current history-altering and world-shaping national and international events in which our nation is today engaged (although "embroiled" may be a more appropriate term).

The importance of this work is self-evident and shows that the JFK Assassination is as important today as on the day it happened, exactly 43 years ago today (I chose to compose on this day intentionally for this reason). George Michael Evica's close friend and research associate for many years, Charles Drago, writes in his eloquent introduction to "A Certain Arrogance":

"A Certain Arrogance stands as Professor Evica's response to the unavoidable question:

How do we define and effect justice in the wake of the world-historic tragedy in Dallas?

Clearly he understands that, at this late date, being content merely to identify and, if possible, prosecute the conspiracy's facilitators and mechanics would amount to hollow acts of vengeance. Cleaning and closing the wound while leaving the disease to spread is simply not an option." Mr. Drago goes on to make analogy between the JFK Assassination and a cancer that continues to spread through our government and contaminates and taints our history.

From this short and eloquent diagnosis, current events clearly demonstrate that "the cancer" which infected government policy and national politics that day in Dallas, November 22nd, 1963 still persists, continues to grow in virulence and has created an all too patient but sick nation. The question remains "What is the remedy that will rid us of the cancer but not kill the patient?" This reviewer's response is:

The remedy that will heal the nation and stop the cancer from spreading any farther is achieving "Justice for JFK."

I recommend "A Certain Arrogance" to all those good citizens who are interested in recovering our national security from the Machiavellian manipulation of misguided patriot actors and religious fanatics who at the core are not dissimilar in credo, strategy and tactics from those same terrorists from whom they pretend to defend us.

THE PIONEER FUND:

THE NAZI CONNECTION

Written By

S.R. Shearer

The Pioneer Fund was established as a charitable trust on February 27, 1937 in New York City. Harry H. Laughlin, Frederick Osborn and textile magnate Wickliffe Draper were the principle founders.[1] The Fund's stated purpose was to "improve the character of the American people" by encouraging the procreation of descendants of "white persons" and to provide aid in conducting research on "race betterment with special reference to the people of the United States."[2] The current president of the Pioneer Fund is a shadowy figure named Harry F. Weyher, a financier and corporate lawyer who eschews interviews and runs the Fund without pay or staff from his offices in New York; he is assisted in his work by four other "Trustees" - one of whom has been Tom Ellis, a close associate of Pat Robertson and Tim LaHaye in the Council on National Policy (CNP), the principle coordinating agency in bringing together various members of the religious right with the business right and the political right. All serve without pay and staff.

The Pioneer Fund has assets of about $5-million and gives away most of its $1-million in annual income to a dozen or more scholars from Northern Ireland to California who study IQ and genetics. The Pioneer Fund supported a significant portion of the research cited in the recent best-selling book on race and intelligence, The Bell Curve, by Richard J. Herrnstein, a Harvard University psychologist who died in September 1994, and Charles Murray, a political scientist at the American Enterprise Institute. In the billion dollar world of philanthropy, the money doled out by the Pioneer Fund may seem paltry. But the numbers don't tell the real story of the Fund's influence. "The Pioneer Fund has been able to direct its resources like a laser-beam," says one critic, Barry Mehler, a historian at Ferris State University who has been gathering information on it since the 1970s. "I credit the Fund for being a major factor in the present resurgence of the biological-determinism movement - a factor that is far out of proportion to the amount of funds it has."[3]

Whether people revere or revile the Fund, most say it has stretched relatively few dollars a long way. "It suggests to me that as long as you focus on your mission, you can make an impact," says Dwight Burlingame, director of academic programs and research at Indiana University's Center on Philanthropy. "A lot of small foundations search for this kind of niche, where they can try to create an identity (and an impact)."[4] Mr. Weyher says his strategy has been to do just that. He chooses from the 30 applications he receives each year those projects that are "too much of a hot potato" to get money elsewhere.[5]

All of the men connected to the establishment of the Fund were admirers of Adolf Hitler. They believed unequivocally in white superiority and held that it (i.e., white supremacy) derived from "the evolutionary process." They were motivated to establish the Fund by what they considered to be the overwhelming "success" of the Nazi eugenics policy[6] - a startling defamation, but one which is easily documented. Take Harry Laughlin, the Fund's most energetic early personality, for example: in May 1936, Dr. Carl Schneider, a professor of "racial hygiene" at the University of Heidelberg and dean of the school's faculty of medicine (and who, incidentally, also served as a "scientific adviser" for the extermination of handicapped people in Germany) offered Laughlin an honorary degree of "Doctor of Medicine." Laughlin was deeply moved; he enthusiastically replied, "I stand ready to accept this very high honor. Its bestowal will give me particular gratification ... To me this honor will be ... valued because it comes from a nation which for many centuries nurtured the human seed stock which later founded my own country and thus gave basic character to our present lives and institutions."[7]

The lives of all the men connected to the founding of the Pioneer Fund exhibit the same Nazi-like attachments and affinities - and this despite the fact that most of them attempted to distance themselves publicly from National Socialism as an outright political ideology. Indeed, despite their inner ebullience towards Hitler, the men connected to the Fund were conscious of the need NOT to appear too slavishly devoted to fascism as a political philosophy. Madison Grant, author of The Great Race and an admirer of the work of the Fund - warned Laughlin to this effect in 1937; he wrote a letter to Laughlin cautioning him against becoming too closely identified with the Nazis; he advised Laughlin that, although "most people of our type" are in sympathy with Germany's actions, eugenicists had to "proceed cautiously in endorsing them"[8] - hence the need to occasionally condemn anti-Semitism and overt racism as such, if only to keep the Jews and other minorities at bay. The dissembling apparent here has been all too much a part of the history of the Pioneer Fund, and continues unabated, even today, as - for example - the manner in which the Fund has attempted to hide its connection to the passage of Proposition 187 in California (see below); but insofar as the Nazi eugenics policy itself was concerned, all of the men connected early on to the Fund would have had little difficulty in agreeing with their colleague Frederick Osborn when he said that the Nazi eugenics program was the "most important experiment which has ever been tried (in the history of the world)."[9]

Since the end of World War II eugenicists connected to the Fund have tried to separate themselves from the legacy of the Holocaust and the ideology of Nordic superiority by eliminating references to "ethnic racism" in their official pronouncements and from the agendas of their various "learned" societies. For example, in 1954, The British Annals of Eugenics was renamed The Annals of Human Genetics; in 1969, The Eugenics Quarterly, the successor of The Eugenics News, was renamed The Journal of Social Biology. Moreover, eugenicists dropped the term "eugenicist" in describing themselves and began referring to themselves as "population scientists," "human geneticists," "psychiatrists," "sociologists," "anthropologists," and "family politicians" - all in an attempt to distance themselves and their work from its hideous outcome in World War II and the Holocaust. To this end, even the Fund dropped all references to "whites" and the "white race" from its charter - and it's worked: these moves have helped the Fund regain acceptance in the scientific community. Today the Pioneer Fund has regained its foothold in academia, financing projects connected to Harvard, Yale, the University of Delaware, the University of California at Berkeley, etc.[10] - and the same subterfuge insofar as what the Fund is really all about continues without any apparent letup. Take, for example, the manner in which the Fund has sought to hide its connection to Proposition 187 (California's 1994 anti-immigrant initiative). Opponents of Prop. 187 charged early on that the initiative was being partially underwritten by the Pioneer Fund. "Not so!" replied proponents of the measure - and, strictly speaking, they were right. There has been no direct connection between the Fund and Prop. 187. But the indirect connection has been extensive and pervasive. The examples are almost too numerous to mention; take just one: Alan Nelson. Nelson is one of the authors of Prop. 187 and was a driving force behind the measure. During the almost two-year "lead-up" to passage of the measure, Nelson was occupied almost full-time on work connected to the initiative. The question is, who paid him during this time? - an organization calling itself FAIR (Federation for American Immigration Reform). And where did FAIR get its income? - from the Pioneer Fund![11] To say under such circumstances, then, that the Pioneer Fund did not help bankroll Prop. 187 is disingenuous at best, and somewhat deceitful at worst. It's precisely this kind of dissembling and duplicity that contributes so greatly to the murky and even sinister aura which surrounds the activities of the Fund.

German historian and sociologist Stephen Kuhl, author of The Nazi Connection, cautions people of good-will in the United States to stay clear of those who are connected to the Fund. He warns that the failure of the German people - especially German Christians - to disassociate themselves early on from people and institutions connected directly or even indirectly to "race-science," so-called, helped pave the way to the crematoria of Hitler's Death Camps. He cautions that the Pioneer Fund is "a Fund that was founded by supporters of Hitler's policies against ethnic minorities and handicapped people and that provided money for introducing Nazi propaganda into the United States; it still sponsors research (and projects) that have striking similarities to the work that provided the scientific basis for Nazi measures."[12] Benno Muller-Hill, author of Murderous Science: Crimes against Germany's Ethnic Minorities, echoes Kuhl; Muller-Hill writes that the Death Camps of Hitler's Germany were not the result of a crazed minority of empty-headed bumpkins, but rather "the result of the work of leading scholars of international repute ... Nazi racial policies were the work of trained scholars, not ignorant fanatics" - it was a science gone mad.

John,

On behalf of George Michael, please accept my thanks for introducing this thread.

I feel obliged to note that my dear friend is experiencing health problems that preclude him from participating in a Forum exchange regarding his new book. So please don't interpret his silence as an indication of ingratitude or in any way a lack of respect for the best of what transpires within these cyberpages.

Thank you.

Charles Drago

[John Bevilaqua]

My pleasure Charles. You know how passionate I am about this

subject and especially about the links into Draper's Eugenicists.

I have long felt that on 3//22/67 Wickliffe Draper and his family

received almost $100,000,000 in Pfd Stock from Rockwell Intl

for clearing the way to allow Rockwell to prosper in the Viet Nam

war after JFK was gone. George Michael's work just seems to

confirm my earlier prognostications about Draper being the

textiles connnection into The Richard Giesbrecht Incident.

Sort of like when Doug Blackmon of the WSJournal finally found

the document linking Draper to Mississippi via the Sovereignty

Commission five years after I wrote about The Ghosts of Mississippi and

cited this connection in my ARRB testimony in 1994. Drapers

role in eliminating The Freedom Riders may never be proven

but he was behind it just like he funded the murder of Medgar

Evers, Jr. Look at the timing of the funds flows from J. P. Morgan's

Draper account to Mississippi Sov Comm. One when Evers died

and the next before The Freedom Riders disappeared.

Could you post some of your comments from the book on the subjects

of Frederick Osborne one of the incorporators of The Pioneer Fund

and any references to Wickliffe Draper or Hjalmar Schacht whose

possible son Robert Schacht is an attorney in Providence where

Oswalds application to Albert Schweitzer College was processed.

Would love to hear your quick summary especially about the Dulles

connection to a Philadelphia based Eugenicist since I just happen

to be working on a Baltimore blue blood family and their links into

the Daughters of the American Revolution a favorite Draper topic,

H. L. Mencken from Baltimore who used to own The American Mercury

before it was bought by the Draper Eugenics types and Ulius Amoss

from Baltimore who was once called "the worlds foremost private eye".

Amoss whose family has a 1200 page customized Geneaology

document already prepared came from a family of Confederate

Officers who considered themselves Kentucky Bluegrass thoroughbreds,

just like Drapers cronies and his family. Gee Kentucky Colonels

involved with American and British Eugenicists and New England

Unitarians whose SH** dont stink. And they all pray at either

Quaker or Unitarian churches and congratulate themselves that

they have a higher percentage of College Graduates than even

the Jews. Hmmm... smarter than the Jews, purer than the

Italians and the Polacks who work for them and whiter than

the driven snow. And we all wonder why they go on head

hunting expeditions against Pancho Villa? Hugh Angleton,

George Draper and Charles Willoughby used to go out on

"bandito quail hunts" in New Mexico after Pancho Villa and

they thought it was like a Fox Hunt. Ta taaaa! Tally Ho.

Meet back at the club for some Mimosas after this is done.

Supposedly the Yalies have captured such trophies as Geronimo's

and Pancho Villa's skulls by raiding their tombs and have stored them

at the Skull and Bones Society in New Haven. Sicko bastidges.

"...or Hjalmar Schacht whose possible son Robert Schacht is an attorney in Providence where Oswalds application to Albert Schweitzer College was processed."

John,

I doubt he is Hjalmar's son. A possibility Hjalmar was his uncle or something even more distant. Hjalmar's brother was actually born in the US - Hjalmar would have been too, except for illness of his mother taking them back to Europe.

The best indicator of a familial relationship is, I think, that Hjalmar's father was a big fan of Horace Greeley - and gave Hjalmar those names as his middle names. Horace Greeley was a Universalist - a church so close to Unitarians, they eventually merged. His cousin (possibly a 2nd) was Dana Greeley - Dana was a friend of Robert Schacht and had an elevated position in the Unitarian church. From memory, correspondence with Schacht and to or about the Schweitzer College can be found in the Dana Greeley Papers.

Friends,

Please understand that I have neither the command of subject matter nor the, well, certain arrogance to take George Michael's place in this cyber dialogue.

Know that his spirits are buoyed by your interest. He encourages discussion and debate about the topics raised in the book.

As for my own modest contribution to A Certain Arrogance: It is, on balance, a mixture of context-provider and encomium. And it's brief. So as soon as I get the chance I'll post it on this thread with the hope that it will stimulate serious interest in George Michael's most important work.

Finally, I should speak to the Robert Schacht business. In 1963, Dr. Robert H. Schacht was Chairman of the American Admissions Committee of Albert Schweitzer College. At the same time he was pastor of the Unitarian Church in Providence, Rhode Island.

In 2000, George Michael made several research trips to the city in which I make my home. He interviewed Dr. Schacht's son, also named Robert, who indeed practices law in RI.

Hope this helps.

Greg Parker was chasing down this Schacht connection at one time as well and I attempted to find out if

Robert Schacht's father was closely related to Hjalmar, but Greg reports to the contrary. As far as Robert, Jr.

was concerned this Albert Schweitzer College was a legitimate educational enterprise and he scoffed at

the idea that it might somehow be seen in a conspiratorial light vis a vis LHO. Now we know better thanks

to George Michael Evica. I was able to browse the book online at Google books and found that George

Michael's focus on Frederick Osborn, the 2nd President and an original founder of The Pioneer Fund confirms

all that I have been saying about Wickliffe Draper and this nefarious cast of characters surrounding him.

And this Unitarian Connection starts with Robert Welch of the nearby John Birch Society and stretches

into the North Carolina roots of 2-3 of the Pioneer Fund Directors as well. So even Welch got his attitude

about racial purity, anti-Communism and Eugenics via Draper whom I sincerely believe advanced Welch

money on a regular basis until JBS became a self supporting organization. Hopedale, the home of the first

company town in America built by the Drapers is only about 20 miles or so from Belmont and Lexington

where Welch plied his trade and where 2 Drapers marched to Lexington Battle Green to fire the shots

heard round the world. 200 years later, Draper's hired proxies fired the second salvo of The Shots

Heard Around the World in Dealey Plaza on that fateful day. There was even a female Draper who was such

an avid War Lover or so anti-British that she dressed as a man and enlisted in the Continental Army and

supposedly served undetected until its conclusion. How she pulled that off is beyond me. Did she have

to learn how to stuff snuff and play poker too? And how about the issues of latrine visits and shower stalls?

Did they have men's and women's latrines way back then or what? And would that not have been a dead

giveaway? Umm... Corporal Draper why are you using the women's bathroom anyway? And why does that

uniform not fit you quite like all the other guys?

Google books limits you to about 50 pages of free browsing for A Certain Arrogance but my curiousity has

been piqued to say the least. Can you find out who this Baltimore Eugenicist actually was? Was it this

Brundage character and was he related to Avery Brundage perhaps of the US Olympic Committee?

I did discover one interesting thing on one of Claudio's threads. Frank Wisner was on the 1936 Olympic Team

with Floyd Draper, Wickliffe's nephew or cousin. Wisner was a low hurdler and Draper was one of the best

sprinters in America at the time and would have won 4 Gold Medals had it not been for Jesse Owens

and Ralph Metcalf taking the limelight from this All American Draper. A year later Wickliffe funded and

started The Pioneer Fund. The timing was more than a little uncanny. Draper was the 3rd bannana

on the relay teams and managed to get 2 Gold Medals anyway as I recall but this must have infuriated

Wickliffe as much as it did Hitler if not more. And C. D. Jackson was in the wedding party of Wickliffe's

sister in 1924 in Hopedale when she married the nephew of William Howard Taft. They were lifelong

buddies and acquaintances. A few years later she died and Wickliffe inherited her half of the family

fortune, another $5,000,000 to bolster his warchest against humanity. Would C. D. Jackson have done

Draper the favor of hiding or altering the Zapruder film as a favor to his goombah? Probably.

By the way your prose is truly eloquent. Can I hire you to write my obitiuary then store it away until

such time as it becomes more relevant and timely? How are you at pithy tombstone epitaphs? I await

your response.

John B

Hi all, an interesting work. The fact is signed by Mr. Evica is a sort of assicuration.

First, I'd like to ask mr. Drago - if he can - to give to Evica all my best "auguri" for his health-status.

I had some contacts with him in 2003, while I was writing about Sifar on my book.

His deposition at Arbb in 1994 gave me the fuel to work on such problems.

Can someone here explain -in short words- what are the "Mississippi ghosts"?

And, Unitarian Churches are Quaker ones or not? Had these organizations a connection with SMOM (Malta order) or SMOC (borbonic order of Farnese dinasty and Spanish one)? (smom and smoc used similar insigna, the red cross of templars).

About Wisner.... yes JB, this italian-hungarian connection it's lightining...

Is that a case the board of Permindex was led by people like Nagy?

Can you tell us this Laurel, Mississippi connection to Italy and the Farnese palace? Please??????

Try Books.Google.com to browse Evica's book. He describes the Quaker vs. Unitarian issue.

One of the Paines, Ruth and Michael, was a Quaker the other a Unitarian as I recall.

I think SMOM and Shickshinny Knights of Malta were mostly arch Conservative Right Wing Catholics

almost exclusively. Google Shickshinny Knights of Malta. Bad dudes for the most part and nasty.

Yes, Permindex was led by the Hungarian Ferenc Nagy but SKOM is more important IMHO.

See: "The Ghosts of Mississippi" which was a movie maybe based on a book by the same name.

It involves the nephew of Senator James O. Eastland who was head of Draper's Genetics Committee

and perhaps one of Oswald's handlers. His name was Byron DeLa Beckwith See Portrait of a Racist.

Draper is in Evica's book along with Frederick Osborn about 5 times and in my manuscript about 25 times.

He started The Pioneer Fund and was the primary funder of The Mississippi Sovereignty Commission

according to Doug Blackmon in the Wall St. Journal in 1999. I think Draper was the main funder of

the JFK hit and behind the persecution of Sacco and Vanzetti and Alger Hiss. He was considered to be

America's Hitler by me mostly and he sent money to Mississippi right after Evers was snuffed by

Eastland's nephew who was a neo-Nazi, a KKK member and just a despicable person. He sent more

money to Mississippi just before The Freedom Riders were murdered.

Ghosts of Mississippi is a 1996 drama film directed by Rob Reiner and starring Alec Baldwin, Whoopi Goldberg and James Woods. The plot focuses on the 1994 trial of Byron De La Beckwith, the white supremacist accused of the 1963 assassination of civil rights activist Medgar Evers.

James Woods was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role of Byron De La Beckwith.

The original music score was composed by Marc Shaiman and the cinematography is by John Seale.

Tagline: "In 1963, civil rights leader Medgar Evers was murdered in his own driveway. For 30 years, his assassin has remained free. Is it ever too late to do the right thing?"

[edit] Plot summary

Medgar Evers is a black civil rights activist in Mississippi who was murdered by an assassin in 1963. It is later suspected that Byron De La Beckwith, a white supremacist, is the murderer and he would be tried twice and both trials ended in hung juries. In 1989, Evers' widow Myrlie has been trying to bring De La Beckwith to justice for over 25 years, and she believes she has what it takes to bring him to trial again.

However, most of the evidence from the old trial have disappeared but Bobby DeLaughter, an assistant District Attorney, decides to do what he can to help her despite being warned that it might hurt his political aspirations and the strain it is causing his marriage. However, DeLaughter becomes more involved with bringing De La Beckwith to trial for the third time 30 years later. In 1994, Byron De La Beckwith is found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment.

[edit] Trivia

• Delmar Dennis (a key witness against Byron De La Beckwith) and his family can be seen as extras in the parade scene. At the film's end, a title card indicated that Bobby DeLaughter had run for a position as a judge and been defeated. That was true at the time. Subsequently, he was appointed to be a judge and later elected overwhelmingly.
  
• Medgar Evers' two sons Darrell and James Van Evers played themselves in this film, as did a police detective who helped with the investigation, Detective Lloyd "Benny" Bennett. Myrlie Evers was also one of this film's consultants.
  
• The daughter of civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr., Yolanda King, played the adult daughter of Medgar Evers in the film.
  
• Although the film begins in 1989 and ends in 1994, the same child actors portraying Bobby DeLaughter's children are used from the beginning of the movie until the end, showing no signs of aging.
  
• This film was shot on location in Jackson, Mississippi, where Megdar Evers was murdered.
  

[edit] Quotes

• Myrlie Evers: (quoting Medgar Evers) I don't know if I'm going to heaven or to hell, but I'm going from Jackson.
  
• Myrlie Evers: (quoting Medgar Evers) When you hate, the only person who suffers is you, because most of the people you hate don't know it and the others don't care.

Gen. William H. Draper, Jr. and Frank Wisner

The Namebase entry implies a tenuous link to Wisner from Gen. Draper in what

they call a Social Network diagram. Would anyone know if it truly exists

and if it is more than distant? Imagine if the Wisners met the Drapers

at the 1936 Olympics and launched a campaign from Mississippi which

continued with Gen. Draper's opposing Nazi decartelization in 1945 and the

Nuremberg Trials in 1946 and Wick Draper later opposing Brown vs. Bd. of

Education of Topeka, KS and the whole nine yards? Maybe this Wisner

from Mississippi deal is bigger than it looks. Way to go Claudio. Draper

worked with Senator Bilbo from Mississippi on his Involuntary Sterilization

programs and the Back to Africa Campaigns so who knows? Grace Lichtenstein

has Draper funding both Bilbo and Eastland. Verrry Interesting to say the

least. And Eastlands nephew snuffed Medgar Evers, Jr.

Introduction to A Certain Arrogance

[NOTE: I have corrected typesetting errors present in the earliest printings and otherwise modestly refined prose in dire need of same. Also, I'll re-submit this material in its own thread.]

To Withdraw From the Tumult of Cemeteries

By Charles R. Drago

human kind

Cannot bear very much reality

-- T. S. Eliot, “Burnt Norton,” Four Quartets

Let me be clear from the outset: A Certain Arrogance is no more or less “about” the assassination of John F. Kennedy than cancer surgery is “about” the tumor.

George Michael Evica, one of the preeminent prosectors of the malignant growth that disfigured the American body politic on November 22, 1963, for decades has focused his intellect and intuition on the search for a cure for the underlying disease. In the course of forty years of research, analysis, writing, broadcasting, and teaching, he has followed its devastating metastasis through the vital organs of politics (deep and otherwise) to the extremities of business, culture, and religion. All the while he has cut away necrotic tissue and struggled valiantly, in the company of a surgical team as distinguished as it is obscure, to keep the patient alive.

Professor Evica, author of And We Are All Mortal: New Evidence and Analysis in the Assassination of John F. Kennedy (1975; University of Hartford), can be numbered among the most honored of the so-called second generation of Kennedy assassination researchers. Their labors to refine, reinforce, expand upon, and draw attention to the discoveries of their predecessors validate this direct statement of fact:

Anyone with reasonable access to the evidence in the homicide of JFK who does not conclude that the act was the consequence of a criminal conspiracy is cognitively impaired and/or complicit in the crime.

Conspiracy in the Kennedy killing is as well-established an historical truth as is the Holocaust. Further, those in a position to know this truth who nonetheless choose to deny it in service to the darkest political and cultural agendas are morally akin to Holocaust deniers.

A Certain Arrogance stands as Professor Evica’s response to the unavoidable question: How do we define and effect justice in the wake of the world-historic tragedy in Dallas?

Clearly he understands that, at this late date, being content merely to identify and, if possible, prosecute the conspiracy’s sponsors, facilitators, and mechanics would amount to hollow acts of vengeance. Cleaning and closing the wound while leaving the disease to spread is simply not a survivable option.

With the nobility of knowledge comes obligation: How can we utilize all that has been learned through our post-Dallas experiences to heal and immunize the long-suffering victims of the malady of which the assassination of John F. Kennedy is but the most widely appreciated and putrescent manifestation?

The method by which Professor Evica honors his noblesse oblige is, at first blush, hardly novel. Like many other researchers, he has chosen to begin his exploration by focusing on an aspect of the complex life of the lead character in the assassination drama, Lee Harvey Oswald. To carry the cancer metaphor forward: Think of the falsely accused killer as a tumor cell whose sojourn through the host organism in theory can be traced back to its source.

Oswald’s movements, however, are not easily discerned. False trails and feints abound. Promising clues have been obscured by a host of ham-handed interlopers and sinister obfuscators.

Rather than traverse well-worn pathways, Professor Evica sets out by following one of the few remaining under-examined passages of an otherwise over-mapped life. His uniquely painstaking investigation of Oswald’s involvement with Albert Schweitzer College (hereinafter ASC), including the processes and implications of his application, acceptance, and nonattendance, has led both to major discoveries and to significant refinements of previously developed hypotheses.

In the former category our attention is drawn to what Professor Evica terms “one of U.S. intelligence’s last important secrets,” the involvement by the Central Intelligence Agency and psychological operations (psyops) in student and youth organizations – especially those with religious affiliations.

The U.S. government’s faith-based initiatives, it seems, did not originate with George W. Bush’s alleged administration.

As he meticulously follows Oswald’s ASC paper trail, the author is led not toward the Swiss campus, but rather into brick walls and empty rooms. A prime example: Oswald applied to the college on March 19, 1959. Less than two months later, when the chairman of ASC’s American Admissions Committee (and, at the time, the pastor of the First Unitarian Church of Providence, Rhode Island) submitted to Switzerland the applications and related materials of prospective American students, Oswald’s folder was included.

Today those documents – critically important evidence in the investigation of the crime of the 20th century – do not exist in any official repository. This in spite of the fact that copies, or perhaps even originals, were in the Providence ASC file seized by the FBI after the assassination. This troubling absence, within a broader context fully substantiated in A Certain Arrogance, inevitably leads the author to conclude that Oswald’s application to ASC is “a still-protected American intelligence operation.”

I do not wish to spoil the bittersweet joy of discovery to be experienced as readers accompany Professor Evica on his journey through unknown territory. Yet the methodology and ultimate value of A Certain Arrogance as a “whodunit” (as opposed to the “howdunit” nature of the overwhelming majority of JFK assassination-related volumes) must be fully appreciated. To discover the identities of Oswald’s early manipulators is to be drawn into the necrotic nucleus of the disease. And so, thanks to the Evica investigation of the ASC charade, we are left with a preliminary, shattering conclusion regarding the “who” we seek.

“Whoever directed the Oswald [assassination] Game was thoroughly knowledgeable about both the OSS’s and CIA’s counterintelligence manipulations of Quakers, Unitarians, Lutherans, Dutch Reformed clerics and World Council of Churches officials as intelligence and espionage contacts, assets, and informants.”

From the mountains and snowfields and quaint villages of Switzerland, Professor Evica escorts us through a darker, more mysterious inner landscape. Examinations of what he neatly summarizes as “U.S. covert intelligence operating under humanitarian cover” leads us to a confrontation with psychological operations – psyops and its propaganda, disinformation, and morale operations alter egos.

Professor Evica was the first to understand the Kennedy assassination and other intelligence operations as by-design theatrical productions, replete with all the essential elements of drama – including shameless manipulations of audiences’ minds and emotions. Within these pages he further supports and refines this hypothesis.

“Psychological manipulations of individuals and groups, whatever the procedure may have been called in the 18th and 19th centuries, drew upon discoveries in anatomy, mesmerism, hypnotism, counseling, studies in hysteria, rhetorical theory, psychoanalysis, advertising, behavior modification, and psychiatry. In the same periods, the literary forms of irony, satire, and comedy and the less reputable verbal arts of slander, libel, and manufactured lies were applied.”

Before we are tempted to argue that the realities of war often require an honorable combatant to mimic, for a limited period and with noble intent, the darker designs of an evil foe, Professor Evica reminds us that, “Most of these genres and strategies were enlisted in the service of social, class, and political power.” He then identifies the likely director of the aforementioned Oswald Game.

C. D. Jackson was “the psyops expert who organized and ran General Dwight David Eisenhower’s Psychological Warfare Division at SHAEF … an official of the Office of War Information … [and] a veteran of the North African campaign.”

Jackson’s career and its impact upon American history, heretofore marginally understood at best (he is widely identified as the Time-Life editor who purchased the Zapruder film) are major focuses of A Certain Arrogance. Nowhere is both the validity of Albert Einstein’s observation that “the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion” and the contemporary relevance of Professor Evica’s discoveries more clearly evident than in the author’s exposition of the Jackson oeuvre. In particular we are drawn to the discussion of how mass media early on was identified as a key weapon in the mind control arsenal.

In a 1946 letter to Jackson, General Robert McClure, at one time Eisenhower’s chief of intelligence for the European theater, boasted to his psyops counterpart of the scope of their manipulation.

“We now control 137 newspapers, 6 radio stations, 314 theaters, 642 movies, 101 magazines, 237 book publishers, 7,384 book dealers and printers, and conduct about 15 public opinion surveys a month, as well as publish one newspaper with 1,500,000 circulation … run the AP of Germany, and operate 20 library centers.”

Fairness and balance, it seems, did not originate with the Fox Network’s alleged news division.

Haunting the pages of A Certain Arrogance in the company of the shades of John Fitzgerald Kennedy and Lee Harvey Oswald is a revelation so menacing in its assault on convention as to provoke a reflexive shielding of our eyes from its searing light. Yet the author cannot spare us the psychic pain that is the unavoidable side effect of his scholarship, insofar as such suffering remains the sine qua non for the eradication of our common malady and the return to robust good health.

Within the nucleus of the disease, Professor Evica has discovered “a treasonous cabal of hard-line American and Soviet intelligence agents whose masters were above Cold War differences.”

In light of this revelation, we are left with no choice but to embrace a new paradigm of world power.

Professor Evica reveals the universally accepted vertical, East v. West Cold War confrontation to have been a sophistic construct, illusory in terms of its advertised raison d’etre, all too real in its bloody consequences, created by the powerful yet outnumbered manipulators of perception to protect what they recognized to be an all too fragile reality. The true division of power, he teaches us, then as now is drawn on a horizontal axis.

Envision the earth so bifurcated, with the line drawn not at the equator, but rather at the Arctic Circle. Above the line are the powerful few – the “haves.” Below the line, in vastly superior numbers, are the powerless many – the “have-nots.”

Can we bear so much reality?

While contemplating the implications of Professor Evica’s research, I was reminded of how Francis Ford Coppola struggled to find the best thematic hook on which to hang the plot of The Godfather, Part III. It is said that he considered and ultimately rejected a treatment of the Kennedy assassination as the most cinematically viable expression of systemic evil in full flower. Instead – perhaps wisely, perhaps not – he opted to dramatize the Vatican Bank scandal.

Upon initial examination, the conjoined stories of the looting of the Banco Ambrosiano, the perfidy of Roberto Calvi and P2, the assassination of John Paul I, and the corruption of the Roman Catholic Church at its highest levels present as the cellular components of yet another tumor, arguably the most horrific manifestation imaginable of the disease being probed by Professor Evica.

We are incredulous. We are outraged.

Then reason returns.

The manipulations of religious institutions by elements of the deep political structure for unholy purposes should provoke neither surprise nor anger. For is not organized religion merely politics by other means?

The assault on Albert Schweitzer, however, is another matter.

“The ethical spirit … must be awakened anew,” Dr. Schweitzer instructed at the height of the Cold War. The defiling of the name and the perversion of the mission of that saintly man no doubt provoked sweet satisfaction within the breasts of those for whom a worldview informed by ethics is simply not a survivable option.

What then of justice? Have we any reason to expect the guilty to be punished, the disease to be eradicated. The novelist Jim Harrison:

“People finally don’t have much affection for questions, especially one so leprous as the apparent lack of a fair system of rewards and punishments on earth … We would like to think that the whole starry universe would curdle … the conjunctions of Orion twisted askew, the arms of the Southern Cross drooping. Of course not; immutable is immutable and everyone in his own private manner dashes his brains against the long suffering question that is so luminously obvious. Even gods aren’t exempt; note Jesus’ howl of despair as he stepped rather tentatively into eternity.”

It is for us to deliver justice and heal ourselves, to muster the courage to ask questions and the strength to endure answers.

Within the pages of A Certain Arrogance, George Michael Evica leads by example.

[Robert Howard]

I am sure most, of those who have posted on this thread are more than passingly familiar with the fact that General Willoughby was assuredly, a late arrival, as a person of interest to the ‘more than novice’ researcher. Dick Russell’s “The Man Who Knew Too Much” contains the following passage on page 130-31 in the 1992 edition. It begins with a letter dated March 17, 1955 from General Willoughby aka Tscheppe Wiedenbach to Allen Dulles stating :

“I believe in “centralization” of intelligence. In a covert outfit, the command leadership is most important . . . . I would be entirely happy to serve with or under you and have every conviction that C.I.A. could not be in better or more responsible hands . . .

On the “book” idea, I take the liberty of making certain suggestions:

i.) I am more interested in Europe or So. America than in the far East,

at this time.

ii.) It is true I have an exceptional entree in Spain.

iii.) However, I can develop the same thing in Germany. My father’s family, (though a divorce took place) is unimpeachable in Wilhelmenian

society. I am in touch with very high level people. As you know, I have a fluent command of French, German and Spanish.

iv.) I think “rapproachment” with Germany is becoming frightfully important. It can only be done on a personal basis, in the end.

v.) I will develop for you a weekly report.

The correspondence continued through the year, with Willoughby offering on October 30, 1955 to aid in setting up “promising . . . social contacts” between young American servicemen stationed in Germany and their counterparts. “The new generation has less to remember — and to resent,” Willoughby wrote, suggesting that, “In American garrison towns, in Germany, this approach can be the first step in developing [sic] a literary youth-movement, by utilizing existing Karl May clubs.”

END

When I read this passage, I couldn’t help but think of some young American servicemen who were stationed in Munich a few years later, Milton Burley III, Bernard Weissman and Larry Schmidt. I can’t help but think these men were cut from the sort of cloth that Herr Wiedenbach most assuredly would have approved of.

Interestingly enough, there was a case in Germany, involving Guenther Grona and Anton Erdinger in approximately that same general time frame, in which the name "Oswald" was allegedly mentioned, in the context of one German mentioning to another, something to the effect that ......Kennedy better be careful if he was to go to the Southern portion of the United States, there’s a man named Oswald. . . . .See Report concerning allegations of Anton Erdinger.

Considering that the US government, more specifically The Agency was concerned that the Guenther Grona case didn't pop up in the US media outlets, I personally would think there was some credibility to the assertion.

This book is a definite keeper. This is one you want to own not check out, because there are lots of new references even for those who are well-read on

the history of the Cold War.

This book connectes China Lobbies, foreign and domestic, with European goings-on. That is rare.

It will especially interest those who want to explore the rich formica of the CIA's janus-faced "liberalism". The machiavellian nature of this liberalism is revealed in great detail.
