Gorbymania! Former Soviet dictator Mikhail Gorbachev enjoys global celebrity status unmatched by any other ex-political leader. But is he a prophet of world peace or a dangerous Pied Piper?
There are many pretenders to fame who are, as Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry would say, legends in their own minds. Then there is Mikhail Gorbachev, who is a legend of mythic proportions in the minds of countless millions. He is lionized as the man who ended the Cold War. Or, as the title of the Gorbachev biography by bestselling author Gail Sheehy suggests, he is The Man Who Changed the World.
Mikhail Gorbachev continues to change the world. The August Coup August Coup, attempted coup (Aug. 18–22, 1991) against Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev. On the eve of the signing ceremony for a new union treaty for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, members of the Politburo and the heads of the Soviet military and of 1991, which supposedly swept him from power, actually propelled him to new heights. Within months of his formal December 25, 1991, resignation as president of the Soviet Union The President of the Soviet Union was the Head of State of the USSR from March 15, 1990 to December 25, 1991. Mikhail Gorbachev was the first and only person to occupy the office. , he was being heralded as the new global environmental and spiritual leader at the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro Rio de Janeiro, city, Brazil Rio de Janeiro (rē`ō də zhänā`rō, Port. rē` thĭ zhənĕē`r .

Except for Pope John Paul II Pope John Paul II (Latin: Ioannes Paulus PP.

There was even a trip to the heartland: a summit in Appleton, Wisconsin, with a governor, civic and business leaders, and representatives of U.S.-Russian sister cities.
In the weeks and months preceding his U.S. trip, world citizen Gorbachev was a headliner at many events, including the 80th birthday party of former Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres (along with Bill Clinton, former South African President F.W. de Klerk, Hollywood actress Kathleen Turner, and other glitterati glit·te·ra·ti pl.n.

Yes, above all, Mikhail Gorbachev's admiring hosts remind us, the man is a tireless humanitarian, toiling for world peace, democracy and Mother Earth.

If true, it would mean that Mikhail Gorbachev, instead of being the celebrated man of peace, is actually an arch-enemy who has brought a Trojan Horse inside our gates. Tragically, yes, he is a master of deceit and is carrying out a plan--together with his fellow strategists in Moscow, and fellow one-world globalists in the West--to destroy our freedom and our country.
Man Behind the Mask
Like most Communist leaders, there is much of Gorbachev's life that remains shrouded in shadow and mystery. But there is much that is known. We know, for example, that he presided over much of the genocidal rape of Afghanistan. That he armed international terrorist groups and terrorist regimes in Libya, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Syria, Cuba, North Korea, and elsewhere. That he armed, supplied and subsidized the Cuban-backed genocides in Ethiopia and Angola. That he supported the brutal Communist Sandinista regime in Nicaragua. That he continued and expanded the massive Soviet drug offensive against the West. That he increased the power and prestige of the KGB. That he used troops, tanks and even poison gas poison gas, any of various gases sometimes used in warfare or riot control because of their poisonous or corrosive nature.

* Top Communist leaders telegraphed decades in advance that they would be launching an incredible "peace" offensive to put the West to sleep. Soviet defectors and reliable anti-Communist experts had warned for years against this coming paradigm shift.
* There are precedents for Soviet strategic deceptions of this sort. In the 1920s Lenin launched his New Economic Policy (NEP NEP: see New Economic Policy. ), pretending to abandon Communism and adopt capitalism to win financial and economic aid from the West. In the 1940s Stalin repeated the ploy, pretending to disband dis·band

* No longer perceived as enemies, the Kremlin strategists have been able to flood the West with agents, who are welcomed into every imaginable position of influence --in business, academe, the media, and government.
* Mikhail Gorbachev is an unrepentant Marxist-Leninist (see below). Like most "former" Soviet leaders, he is a master of Communist dialectics.
* Despite Gorbachev's supposed "break with the past," he continues to work closely with top Communist leaders from the Soviet era and agents of Soviet fronts throughout the world to further the same revolutionary objectives of the Soviet era. * Gorbachev is a premier champion for U.S.-Russian "convergence"--that is, merging countries politically and economically, and transforming the United Nations into a world government. Both of these objectives constitute a continuation of the strategy initiated by Soviet agents Alger Hiss, Andrei Gromyko, Vlacheslav Molotov, and Andrei Vyshinsky--all of whom played key roles in designing the UN Charter and the entire UN system.
* The false breakup of the Soviet Union has greatly aided the Kremlin plan to use the UN as a weapon of conquest. Each state of the CIS is now entitled to a full delegation at the UN, meaning a vast increase in the Communist agents in all UN organs worldwide and especially in the U.S.
* Gorbachev continues to work with all of the same one-world Insiders in the West who have supported Soviet dictators from Lenin to Gorbachev, and who have continued to support Gorbachev's relabeled Communist successors, from Yeltsin to Putin.
Lenin's Disciple, Leninist Replay
Contrary to popular belief, no genuine, irreversible political and economic transformation has occurred in Russia and the CIS. We have been witnessing a carefully controlled "collapse-able Communism" that can--and will--revert to its former, overtly totalitarian self at the chosen time.
In his 1921 Draft Thesis on the Role and Functions of the Trade Unions Under the Economic Policy, Soviet dictator Lenin explained:
The New Economic Policy introduces
a number of important changes ...
which are due to the fact that in their
entire policy of transition from capitalism
to socialism the Communist
Party and Soviet Government are now
adopting special methods to implement
this transition and in many respects
are operating differently from
the way they operated before: they are
capturing a number of positions by a
new "flanking movement," so to
speak: they are drawing back in order
to make better preparations for a new
offensive against capitalism. In particular,
a free market and capitalism,
both subject to state control, are now
being permitted....
Lenin's "free market" was nothing of the sort. It was, as Lenin himself admitted, a state-controlled sham that served as a deceptive flanking movement. However, much of the media dutifully du·ti·ful

The above quote from Lenin is very important with regard to updating and repackaging Lenin's New Economic Policy (NEP) as Gorbachev's perestroika. It was quoted in entirety in the May 1991 issue of Political Affairs, the official journal of the Communist Party USA Known officially as the Communist Party USA (CPUSA), the Communist party was formed in the United States in 1919, two years after the Russian Revolution had overthrown the monarchy and established the Soviet Union. , by CPUSA CPUSA Communist Party of the United States of America leader Carl Bloice. Comrade Bloice was explaining to the Party faithful that they should not be confused by the seemingly chaotic disintegration of the Soviet Union. Gorbachev and the Soviet leadership, noted Bloice, had adopted Lenin's NEP strategy. Bloice noted that the "changes ... do not themselves constitute a threat to socialist [i.e., Communist] principles. Indeed, they are being undertaken with a view to strengthening the system." Then, using Lenin's phrase, Bloice emphasized that all of this new Soviet thrust would require "special methods."
Bloice, who had been to Moscow many times to confer with the top Soviet leadership, knew that Gorbachev was a thorough Leninist. Gorbachev, in his 1987 book Perestroika: New Thinking for Our Country and the World, was very explicit about his Leninist principles. One of the subtitles in the book's first chapter is Turning to Lenin, an ldeological Source of Perestroika. Gorbachev says of that Bolshevik butcher: "His very image is an undying example of lofty moral strength, all-around spiritual culture and selfless devotion to the cause of the people and to socialism." According to Gorbachev, perestroika is "the most important and most radical program for economic reform our country has had since Lenin introduced the New Economic Policy in 1921." He stated further: "Every part of our program of perestroika--and the program as a whole, for that matter is fully based on the principle of more socialism and more democracy." He added, "We want more socialism and, therefore, more democracy."
Gorbachev has not retreated from this position in the succeeding years. In fact, he has reiterated it many times. But he also has intentionally confused the meaning of his words in many people's minds with his suave demeanor and appeals to humanitarian concerns. Even so enthusiastic a Gorby follower as writer Gall Sheehy remarked on the Soviet leader's masterful use of Aesopian language. "It is quite easy to play to the naivete na·ive·té or na·ïve·té

Anatoliy Golitsyn, perhaps the most important KGB defector ever to escape to the West, has been exposing Soviet strategic deception for more than four decades, with an unparalleled record for accuracy. Golitsyn, who worked in the ultra-secret inner sanctum of the KGB, has noted that "to be credible and effective, a deception should accord as far as possible with the hopes and expectations of those it is intended to deceive." Gorbachev's Leninist perestroika deception fits the bill perfectly. Everyone in the West wants to believe that we won the Cold War, and that the threat of nuclear war between the superpowers is a thing of the past.
New Agenda, Old Agenda
On September 26, only a few days before his recent trip to the U.S., the French Press Agency reported that Gorbachev was pitching a new agenda for world peace. Russia and the United States need more than their alliance against terrorism to ensure viable ties, Gorbachev told reporters in Moscow. "We need another agenda, in addition to strategic defense and combatting terrorism," said Gorbachev. "We lack an economic component to our ties. We need to be economically dependent on each other."
Actually, economic "interdependence" is a not a new agenda item at all for Gorbachev and his fellow one-worlders--who include the power elite in Moscow as well as in the U.S. Gorbachev has been working closely for the past 15 years with both of these elite cadres to secure the transfer of tens of billions of dollars from the U.S. and the West to Russia and the CIS. He has worked closely with Jeffrey Sachs and his crew from Harvard and the Council on Foreign Relations The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is an influential and independent, nonpartisan foreign policy membership organization founded in 1921 and based at 58 East 68th Street (corner Park Avenue) in New York City, with an additional office in Washington, D.C. to keep the billions flowing to his supposed opponents and enemies who now run the Kremlin.
Keeping that river of cash flowing was a major reason for Gorbachev's recent trip to Wisconsin. The Communities for International Development program is an effort to build more Sister City relationships and a grassroots lobbying force that will support continued funding transfers. That was the message of Julie Bahr of the FoX Cities-Kurgan Sister Cities Program, the organization sponsoring Gorbachev's visit to Appleton. "There are governmental contacts that will secure funds for weapons disposal," said Bahr. "But the trust that allowed that to happen is what the sister cities are all about."
Creating U.S.-Soviet interdependence through economic and political convergence has been a long-term objective of subversive forces in our government and higher echelons of society for at least a generation.

The major foundations--Ford, Carnegie, Rockefeller, etc.--were being investigated in 1953 because of their alarming record of supporting Communist front organizations, world government, and programs aimed at subverting U.S. sovereignty and independence. Gaither admitted to congressional investigator Norman Dodd that the reason for Ford's odd pattern of philanthropy was that the foundation was operating under directives that it use its immense resources "to so alter life in the United States as to make possible a comfortable merger with the Soviet Union." Gaither's counterparts at Rockefeller, Carnegie and other major foundations were operating under similar instructions.

on November 2, 1987, marking the 70th anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution, Mikhail Gorbachev stated: "In October 1917 we parted with the Old World, rejecting it once and for all. We are moving toward a new world, the world of Communism. We shall never turn off that road." Gorbachev was speaking in his capacity as a lifelong Communist and as general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union The General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (First Secretary in 1953-1966) was the title synonymous with leader of the Soviet Union after Vladimir Lenin's death in 1924.

On December 23, 1989, Gorbachev declared to the Congress of People's Deputies assembled in Moscow, "I am a communist. For some that may be a fantasy. But for me it is my main goal." During a trip to Byelorussia on February 26, 1991, Gorbachev said, "I am not ashamed to say that I am a communist and adhere to the communist idea, and with this I will leave for the other world"
Gorbachev's deeds have not belied those words. As Soviet president, he surrounded himself with hardline Communists and KGB pros like Valentin Pavlov, Gennadi Yanayev, Dmitri Yazov, Boris Pugo, Vladimir Kryuchkov, et al. Since leaving office, he has continued to work with top Russian (i.e., Soviet) Communist Party and KGB leadership. He defends, praises and supports current Russian president (and former KGB/FSB chief) Vladimir Putin.
KGB defector Anatoliy Golitsyn, in his brilliant 1995 analysis The Perestroika Deception, charges: "Gorbachev and his strategists are not true democrats and never will be. They remain committed to socialism and Communism. They are a new, smoother generation of revolutionaries who are using 'democratic' reforms as a new method, based on Leninist principles, of achieving final victory."

Yet Gorbachev, Putin and company roll merrily on, assisted by what would seem to be the most unlikely accomplices.
On February 4, 1987, a high-level delegation from the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR CFR

..... Click the link for more information.) visited Gorbachev in Moscow. Led by CFR chairman Peter G. Peterson, the group included Cyrus Vance, Henry Kissinger, Harold Brown, and Jeane Kirkpatrick. By this time, Gorbachev had already become close friends with Secretary of State George Shultz (CFR), later to become a board member of the Gorbachev Foundation. He also had already benefited immensely from glowing appraisals of his character, style and policies by the CFR-dominated media.
In his December 1988 address to the United Nations, Gorbachev voiced a familiar CFR refrain, stating that "further world progress is only possible through a search for universal human consensus as we move forward to a new world order." He went further in his famous 1992 "Churchill speech" in Fulton, Missouri, calling for "global government." To prevent "conflicts from developing into a worldwide conflagration," he said, we must put "certain national armed forces Narodowe Siły Zbrojne (English National Armed Forces, NSZ) was a part of the Polish resistance movement in World War II, fighting Nazi German occupation in General Government.

After placing the Kremlin in the hands of Yeltsin and other supposed reformers, Gorbachev came on board the CFR "convergence" bandwagon fulltime. He was put in charge of the CFR-directed joint U.S.-Russian Global Security Project and then made a director of the Global Security Initiative. With the imprimatur of his CFR promoters, he was boosted to co-chairman of the Earth Charter Commission, made president of the new Green Cross International, and invited into the exclusive World Economic Forum. He has been showered with lavish corporate and foundation funding as well as priceless media propaganda for the activities of Green Cross, Foundation for the Development of Democracy and World Peace, Earth Charter Initiative The Earth Charter Initiative is the collective name for the extraordinarily diverse, global network of people, organizations, and institutions who participate in promoting the Earth Charter, and in implementing its principles in practice. , Gorbachev Foundation, and his many other enterprises.

Their investment of economic resources, influence and face time is well spent; Gorbachev is, arguably, one of the most successful advocates ever of the CFR's subversive twin objectives: U.S.-Russian convergence and transformation of the UN into an empowered world government.
Nice work. Guess where all their money comes from? besides us.
