Show Notes from Tragedy and Hope: Our Interesting Times: Carroll Quigley, Cecil Rhodes, and the Reconquest of America (through the creation of an International Polity)
“Kevin Cole joins the “Our Interesting Times” podcast with Timothy Kelly to discuss his paper “Carroll Quigley and the Article that Said Too Little: Reclaiming History from Omission and Partisan Straw Men” and the historical importance of Quigley’s magnum opus Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World In Our Time. We also talk about Cecil Rhodes and how his plan to reclaim America for the British Empire was largely achieved in the 20th century via the creation of an elite international polity.
Kevin is a historian, writer and researcher. He has also assisted in the production of several documentaries including State of Mind: The Psychology of Control and The Ultimate History Lesson: A Weekend with John Taylor Gatto.”

Sometimes it is a bit frustrating to debate people who have not taken the time to read Quigley’s ‘Anglo-American Establishment’ or the many historical accounts of Antony C Sutton; but I must take the world as I find it. Most of these people are smart and well-intentioned but lack key information. Faced with similar frustrations, Joe Plummer would give away Quigley’s books in the hope someone would read them, only to find out the challenge was too great. Rather than give up, however, Joe decided to write his own slimmed-down, easier to understand and updated book on Quigley called appropriately Tragedy and Hope 101. In this sea of ignorance, how can we have an intelligent or sane conversation without 1) key information on the real players; 2) fundamental knowledge of methods and procedures and 3) the proven historical backdrop provided by Quigley and other researchers? That is the question. Without the historical context and an understanding of the genealogy and pedigree of the current batch of oligarchs, how can we advance our mutual understanding and how can we engage in an effective contest for our freedom as the collective noose is tightened around our collective necks?
We are encouraged by the rapid spread of information through the internet; and we are encouraged to understand, historically, the information wars can be won by as few as 5% of the populations. I am also encouraged by the many people who have not read Quigley, yet by the sheer force of their own intellectual skills and keen observations, can impute without the direct information provided by Quigley. Without Quigley, they point to inconsistencies in the official historical record and the official stories of finance, geopolitics and social engineering that deserve a complete accounting and then demand an explanation. The interview below with Paul Craig Roberts is a very good example of the brilliant intellect of PCR who struggles without the benefit of Quigley.
Another good example of brilliance overcoming ignorancewithout the benefit of Quigley can be seen in the excellent interview of NSA Whistleblower William Binney by Richard Grove here.
Obviously, Mr. Grove is well versed in Quigley, but the question must be asked: How much more effective would Binney or PCR be if they had the benefit of Quigley’s and Sutton’s documented evidence?
I’ve often said …
“There are two kinds of people: Those who have read Quigley and those who have not; and it is very easy to tell the difference.”
I didn’t say this to be offensive or elitist or to prove I’m smarter than anyone else. I said it simply because it is true. Once the truth of what Quigley said hits you, you can never go home again, you can never see the world the same way again. Your innocence is lost. Your naive belief in the goodness of so many institutions is forever shattered by documented fact. You see with clear eyes and so you are more difficult to fool by those who build the walled-gardens of propaganda where most of your fellows live out their intellectual lives; never questioning the construction of these walls, built of ‘well-established’ assumptions which are in fact lies.
But even with the revelations provided by Quigley, Sutton and others, the picture is never complete and of course changes over time. The old guards die, providing room for the new oligarchs and their attendant power structures; but these changes are mostly traceable and predictable. The footprints of the past are seen everywhere in the present. Today, we have a new generation of brave, brilliant investigators and heroes who have continued –sometimes at great personal sacrifice– to peel back the curtain so that we can observe those who seek to enslave the rest of us for their own selfish purposes. See the Julian Assange interview below.
Assange on ‘US Empire,’ Assad govt overthrow plans & new book ‘The WikiLeaks Files’ (EXCLUSIVE)
Published on Sep 9, 2015
Afshin Rattansi goes underground with the world’s most wanted publisher – the founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange. He has just co-authored a book – the WikiLeaks Files, and it paints a picture of systemic US torture and killing as well as the destruction of the lives and livelihoods of billions of people right around the world.
There are many examples of our Superstars who have read and understand Quigley and Sutton:
Antony C Sutton gave an interview back in 1980 discussing his research on the funding of World War II, when American and European financiers were funding both the Nazi party and the communists.
Sutton was an economics professor at California State University, Los Angeles and a research fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution from 1968 to 1973.
In 1973, Sutton published a popularized, condensed version of the three volumes called National Suicide: Military Aid to the Soviet Union and was thereby forced out of the Hoover Institution. His conclusion from his research on the issue was that the conflicts of the Cold War were “not fought to restrain communism”, since the United States, through financing the Soviet Union “directly or indirectly armed both sides in at least Korea and Vietnam”; rather, these wars were organised in order “to generate multibillion-dollar armaments contracts”
For impressive evidence of Western participation in the early phase of Soviet economic growth, see Antony C. Sutton’s Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development: 1917–1930, which argues that ‘Soviet economic development for 1917–1930 was essentially dependent on Western technological aid’ (p.283), and that ‘at least 95 per cent of the industrial structure received this assistance.’ (p. 348).

Your U.S. tax dollars at work, and for what benefit? Did the U.S. spread democracy to Vietnam? Nope. You can’t spread what you don’t have. BTW, the war in Vietnam was based on a U.S. lie (as requested by LBJ) of the Gulf of Tonkin Incident which never, ever happened. After 1.5 to 3.6 million innocent men, women and children were brutally murdered by the United States of America and 58,209 young Americans lost their lives, the U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara later admitted the Gulf of Tonkin incident never happened. Oops. So sorry. Who benefited? Not you, not me and not the Vietnamese. The banksters and the defense contractors did pretty darned well. Yachts and multiple homes, fat bank accounts and the appearance of legitimacy for all. War is good business. Had JFK not been assassinated, would he have been obliged to create such a lie as LBJ? Doubtful, but we will never know. This one instance should give anyone with an I.Q. above a stalk of broccoli a taste of who the psychopathic mobsters are who actually run this country. See Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria and Ukraine for more examples of the same. All based on lies supported by the existing power structure and their bought and paid for mainstream media talking heads. Get a clue.

Having read the Antony Sutton books James Corbett references in his excellent podcast (below), certainly helps provide for a much better historical context; and helps to fill in the gaps in any story this big. As usual, this is a well-researched video/podcast that will provide a deeper understanding of the ruling oligarchies, and also an understanding of the way James vets and conducts his research. Many hours/years put into this short piece. If you are familiar with Antony C. Sutton’s and Carroll Quigley’s work, all of this will make much more sense. In any event, Hope you enjoy and benefit.
James Corbett:“Military tensions, cyber espionage accusations, a brewing currency war; with every passing day, the headlines paint a convincing portrait of an emerging cold war between China and the West. But is this surface level reality the whole picture, or is there a deeper level to this conflict? Is China an opponent to the New World Order global governmental system or a witting collaborator with it? Join us in this in-depth edition of The Corbett Report podcast as we explore China’s position in the New World Order.”
China and the New World Order…
A final thought: So what is the Big Picture? First off, the state does not equal the oligarch. One oligarch will play, maneuver and influence one or more states into a particular configuration to his liking to influence relatively current events. More often one or more oligarchs will combine their efforts for a particular goal. See the specific techniques used by Cecil Rhodes and Lord Milner of the Milner group. For the longer-term strategies, they use the outer rings of the kindergarten, along with the media, prestigious Universities rewriting history if necessary by cultivating and seducing those bright minds it discovers and supports financially for doing the right thing. Remember, they are the establishment. All other opinions are suspect. Quigley gives specific, documented examples of how this is constructed and how it is accomplished in the real world. Joe Plummer does an excellent job making some of these techniques up-close, personal and real in his novel ‘Leaving the Illusion’. It is important to remember that despite the position of the state and the people within the state, the oligarchs have much more in common with each other than they do with their respective citizens. The state represents pieces on the chessboard and they are not generally emotionally vested in a state the same way commoners are. Many in Lord Milner’s day did, however, believe that the British culture was superior; today’s oligarchs are less inclusive and represent a ‘break-away’ civilization. Most of these people show all the love and care and remorse of your typical psychopath and LITERALLY see most of their fellow citizens as bugs to be squished beneath their feet. To most of these folks, we are worthless breeders and eaters consuming their resources. –David Brown
Postscript and additional clarification: Let’s see if I can deconstruct my comments above just a bit: My first comment was that the state does not equal the Oligarch. What this means is that to a certain extent, the state and those who support and believe in the state do not necessarily have parallel agendas with the real power centers. For example, within the state, you have true believers of the state’s authority and legitimacy in the general population, in universities, authorities, politicians, bureaucrats and the trained technocrats (who BTW work for the oligarchy without realizing it); and of course, certain elements in the defense apparatus. So this collection of folks in say China or Russia can have disagreements with their analogues in say the USA, etc. But what none of these folks are aware of, is the real power which controls the overall vector (direction and force). These folks can be seen as looking at just part of the elephant without ever seeing the entire beast and thus the beast is not recognized for what it is. This is what Quigley calls rings within rings.

Additional NFO:
At least 18 of the Immortals’ descendants own or run entities linked to companies registered offshore, including the British Virgin Islands and the Cayman Islands, as well as Liberia and other jurisdictions that offer secrecy, the reporting showed.
While the Immortals vilified the “bourgeois individualism” of capitalist nations, almost half of their heirs lived, studied or worked abroad, some in Australia, England and France. The princelings were among the first to travel and study overseas, giving them an advantage not available to ordinary Chinese.
The U.S., which established diplomatic ties with Communist China in 1979, was the top destination: At least 23 of the Immortals’ descendants and their spouses studied there, including three at Harvard University and four at Stanford University, according to the Bloomberg data. At least 18 worked for U.S. entities, including American International Group Inc. and the law firm White & Case LLP, which hired one of Deng’s grandsons. Twelve owned property in the U.S.
There is no accepted measure for the degree of control the princelings exert on the economy. Academics who study China estimate that wealth and influence is concentrated in the hands of as few as 14 and as many as several hundred families.
“MAO WAS A YALIE – Back in 1903, Yale Divinity School established a number of schools and hospitals throughout China that were collectively known as ‘Yale in China.’ It has since been shown that ‘Yale in China’ was an intelligence network whose purpose was to destroy the republican movement of Sun Yat-sen on behalf of the Anglo-American Establishment. The Anglo-American “Establishment” hated Sun, because he wanted to develop China. On the other hand, they loved the Chinese communists because they intended to keep China backward, and were committed to growing dope. One of ‘Yale in China’s’ most important students was Mao Zedong.
“During World War II, ‘Yale in China’ was a primary instrument used by the U.S. Establishment and its Office of Strategic Services (OSS) to install the Maoists into power. ‘Yale in China’ was run by OSS operative Reuben Holden, the husband of Bush’s cousin, and also a member of Skull and Bones.
“The Maoists made China into the world’s largest opium producer. “‘Yale in China’ was also closely associated with the New York-based Union Theological Seminary, which has been a center for U.S. subversion of Asia (literal wolves in sheep’s clothing – Branton). Every prominent radical leader operating in Korea today, for example, was trained at Union Theological. Union Theological was dominated for twenty years by Henry Sloane Coffin, a U.S. intelligence executive from the Sloane and Coffin families. He was a Skull and Bones member as were a dozen of his relatives.
“Nor should it be forgotten that Averell Harriman, the former Ambassador to Moscow who did so much to build up the Soviet Union, was a member of Skull and Bones. Harriman was also a business partner of Prescott Bush, Sr., the father of Maoist enthusiast George Bush.”
Note: This Skull and Bones – Communist connection is also confirmed by geopolitical and economicsresearchers such as Dr. Antony Sutton (Sutton’s books may be obtained through THE PATRIOT REVIEW., 33836 SE Kelso Rd. #6., P.O. Box 596., Boring, OR 97099; OR via THE MIDNIGHT MESSENGER., P.O. Box 472., Altadens, CA 91001). Not only did the Skull and Bones (Western Illuminati) help to build up the Communist movement in China, but they gave considerable financial aid to the Soviet Union communists as well. According to Sutton, this power cult has for centuries been playing a “two ends against the middle” type of game, attempting to control America (the thesis) and Russia (the anti-thesis) and other countries or movements, carefully pitting them against each other at the lower levels in order to keep the populations of the world in a state of confusion and despair, to the point that they will – hopefully – resign themselves into accepting the New World Order “synthesis” as the only alternative to solve the very “problems” which THEY, the New World Order initiators, created in the first place! One startling, though documented, claim which Mr. Sutton makes is that the Nazi Movement was largely financed by the Skull and Bones -Illuminati as well. This connection was recently described in a mailer describing Val Valerian’s book MATRIX III (c/o Leading Edge Research., P.O. Box 481-MU58., Yelm, WASH 98597). Part of this mailer states:
“Interspaced with the material comes a host of data, supplementary material, interviews, and revealing information. The ‘Final Scenario’ is discussed relative to the New World Order and the plans for total economic control, a one-world religion, and the electronic mind control objectives, schools of thought, and research. MATRIX III brings out in detail how various families in the United States and Europe are also involved in a scenario which has as its main tenet the suppression and elimination of human beings on many levels – a scenario which includes worldwide traffic of drugs, vast laundering of drug money by national banks of several countries, and assassination and murder. These are the people who arranged and supported all the wars. There is discussion of the Bush family, and how Prescott Bush assisted the finance and management of the Nazi empire – the so-called Hitler project…

It’s much more complicated than this but here are some basics…
Not all Muslims are evil and want to kill non-Muslims
As of 2010, over 1.6 billion or about 23.4% of the world population were Muslims. Not all of these folks are chopping heads off or strapping bombs to their children.
Many Muslims hate each other more than they do the West. Sunni and Shiite.
Much of the violence in the Middle East is a result of the unnatural division of the Ottoman Empire after WWI by the French and the British
The Treaty of Darin of 1915 between the United Kingdom and Abdul-Aziz Al Saud founded one of the most brutal dictatorships in the Middle East: the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1932.
Since that time the USA and its vassal states have sought to control these unnatural associations by overthrowing governments, killing many Muslims and putting in their own puppet dictators in charge throughout the Middle East.
Saudi Arabia is one of the most brutal dictatorships in the Middle East today. They teach and spread a violent form of Islam called Wahhabism. They are also a major partner with the USA.
In Iran, the democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh was replaced by the U.S. and UK-backed coup d’état and installed puppet Mohammad Reza Pahlavi (Shah of Iran) to bring back foreign oil firms. The Shah was one of the most brutal, murderous and feared dictators using his secret police called SAVAK to hunt down anyone including Iranian students studying in the US for murder and torture.
Since WWII, the USA and its vassal states have been responsible for the deaths of millions of Muslims in the Middle East. 500,000 children in Iraq alone. Madeline Albright (US Sec of State) said that it was worth it.
The short story, is that Briton and France divided up the Ottoman Empire into unnatural states that did not consider cultural or religious traditions. The effect was to turn Muslim against Muslim and to cause resentment against the West. Dictators were put in place to control the countries created out of the Ottoman Empire for the oil interests in the West. In the meantime millions of innocent Muslims have been slaughtered at the behest of the West.
Here are some maps that may help understand the Middle East a bit better.
So …what is a walled-garden? Well, it’s a garden with a wall around it, apparently to keep the bad things out and to keep certain things in. What sort of bad things? Well, things that could disrupt the peaceful enjoyment of the garden and to protect all those who live within the garden and all that they value and treasure. Within the walls of the garden magical things take place: like general agreements of where the walls are, what they look like and the cardinal rule that no one is to venture outside the walls that protect the peace and tranquility of the garden. For the Globalist or as I term Mr. Global’s purposes, the walls represent long-studied scientific control mechanisms implemented through the media and the learning institutions Mr. Global controls. For the people who live inside the garden, the walls represent generally held assumptions that are not to be questioned; because if you question these assumptions, the walls just might crumble and the garden would be vulnerable to all sorts of bad stuff and therefore ruined for everyone. This is why you can experience such vitriol if you dare question one of these sacred assumptions. These walls are in fact constructed of unexamined assumptions and ‘well-established facts‘ supported by the science of consensus and authority, not empirical evidence. These walls are maintained by the specialists who work for Mr. Global; and who after all, have the time and education to thoroughly examine and construct good, strong walls. Over time, these walls have become so complex, that only the best and brightest can truly understand and maintain their construction. This leaves the people more time to enjoy their garden and to work, study and pay taxes.
If we look at the chart above, we will see that Mr. Global’s domain is a super-set of the subset of the walled-garden, and lies outside of the wall. Mr. Global determines where the walls will be built and his hired help –or the technocrats– maintain the wall’s structure for him. So how does Mr. Global go about creating these walls made of assumptions, and what are these assumptions anyway? We can learn about this through the history of man from the ancient Egyptians to current day. Mr. Global creates these walls through storytelling, through mythology and by stimulating the collective archetypes we all share.
One thing about Mr. Global, is that he has money … and lots of it. In fact, he can create money out of thin air and all the folks who can’t do that magic trick have no option but trade their time for this magic elixir called money. Mr. Global has solidified his monopoly and thus his power and control by keeping all normal and acceptable thought within the walls of his garden. To venture outside the walls is to lose your mind and your reputation and likely your job. Since Mr. Global owns most of the media including the news and entertainment and exerts incredible influence over what history is written and how history is taught in the education system, his ability to construct unexamined assumptions is considerable; not just for the past and current generations but for many generations to follow.
If you are interested in learning the real history and about the real control mechanisms that direct your thoughts and your life, I would recommend you start with Carroll Quigley’s ‘Anglo-American Establishment’. From there you can read about the real Bolshevik revolution, WWI, WWII and FDR from Antony C. Sutton’s many excellent books on these same topics. What you will learn will curl your toenails and straighten your hair but it will also make the walls of the garden disappear.
Set aside a little bit of time if you plan to actually go through these fascinating maps compiled by Max Fisher. You may or may not be surprised at all of these maps, but I bet you will improve your understanding of the Middle East considerably. Enjoy!
Maps can be a powerful tool for understanding the world, particularly the Middle East, a place in many ways shaped by changing political borders and demographics. Here are 40 maps crucial for understanding the Middle East — its history, its present, and some of the most important stories in the region today.
1) VIDEO: The Trilateral Commission and Technocracy
Published on Nov 5, 2013
Founded in 1973 by David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski, the Trilateral Commission embarked on a New International Economic Order based on Technocracy. Brzezinski called this the “Technetronic Era” in his 1970 book, Between Two Ages. History now reveals the original Trilateral strategy and the means by which they have carried it out.
3) VIDEO: Google “Bill Clinton rape” by James Corbett
Bill Clinton, exactly like Bill Cosby, is a multiply-accused rapist with allegations stretching back decades. And exactly like Cosby, Clinton has settled a sexual harassment lawsuit out of court. But unlike Cosby, Clinton continues to enjoy the adoration of the public and the benefits of his personal fortune. Why? Because we haven’t made it an issue yet. Let’s start: Google “Bill Clinton rape.”
4) ARTICLE: A Family Business of Perpetual War Victoria Nuland and Robert Kagan have a great mom-and-pop business going. From the State Department, she generates wars and – from op-ed pages – he demands Congress buy more weapons. There’s a pay-off, too, as grateful military contractors kick in money to think tanks where other Kagans work, writes Robert Parry.
5) ARTICLE: The Rise of Russia and the ‘End of the World’ Great little history lesson. I’d like to see more Quigley in there but it is a good summary none the less and gives a peek into the history that is NOT taught in US Public Schools. For example: “As revealed by Antony Sutton, the extent of Western influence and control inside Soviet Russia is exemplified by the fact that, during the Vietnam war, the military vehicles being used by the North Vietnamese military to fight American soldiers were produced in a Soviet factory, the Kama River Truck Plant, owned by the US Ford corporation.”
6) VIDEO: America’s Surveillance State part 1 (The Surveillance Machine)
Published on Oct 22, 2014
We live in the United States of Surveillance–with cameras increasingly positioned on street corners and with much more invisible spying online and on the phone. Anyone who is paying attention knows that privacy could be out the window. All of this is not happening by accident -well funded powerful agencies and companies are engaged in the business of keeping tabs on what we do, what we say, and what we think.
To many in the world, today, the face of America also has A BIG NOSE for sniffing and sifting mountains of data—phone calls, emails and texts. And with many mouths silenced by paranoia to keep what they decide is secret, secret. America has become a Surveillance-Industrial State where everyone’s business has become its business, and where one huge US intelligence Agency has been given the sanction and unlimited amounts of money to spy on the whole world.
Mass Surveillance is the focus of this new 6 part investigative documentary series examining who is watching whom and why.
