Ideological Godfather of the Neocons – Leo Strauss

Strauss espoused the view that the masses are an incoherent rabble incapable of reason and self-determination. They must be managed he said for ‘their’ own good, but especially for the good of the elite that manages them, implied. He taught that the optimum means of crowd management was via fear or appealing to the most basic human emotions rather than reason as the masses lacked that critical ability – he clearly got it right! And so his students, particularly Paul Wolfowitz and other Zionist Jews that subscribed to the views of their Jewish teacher, Strauss, began their assault on American democracy in the 90’s until they succeeded in capturing America using their Zionist banker supporters and puppet president dubya Bush as a means to an end.

International Zionism had won the day they now had complete control of the most powerful military nation on earth and continue to dictate policy to Obama and whoever is chosen to replace him. The result of this coup stares us in the face, perpetual war, ruin, destruction and the destabilisation of the entire planet – so much for Strauss and his theory of benign management. He forgot one crucial factor absolute power corrupts.

However, I would focus on Strauss’ appreciation of the mindless herd or masses, which when confronted with irrefutable facts and the many injustices perpetrated against them and others, remain passive – proving Strauss correct at every turn. Strauss’ cynical view however is far from new, the ruling elites of ancient Egypt utilised magic tricks and other created phenomenon to dupe the mentally retarded masses, indeed, an entire nation slaved for the Pharaoh.

After Alexander conquered Egypt and established Greek dynasties on the throne, the Greeks learned ‘soft power’ or ideological mass control from the Egyptians; the many temples which proliferated at the time, favouring one God or the other, competed with each other for followers. These temples were noted for their superb images, sculptures and hidden mechanical devices, which were nothing short of genius at the time.

Some temples had ‘Gods’ that spoke or made ‘supernatural’ sounds, others had female Deities whose breasts issued milk at ‘convenient’ times – all these tricks of course were designed to gain followers, enslave and fill the coffers of temple treasuries – the Vatican has not veered one iota from this formula as its history clearly records.

And so we are faced with the historical reality that the masses since civilised societies began have been managed, tricked, lied to, enslaved and EXPLOITED continually to today. One need only look at the recent criminal frauds perpetrated by the banker elites, the subprime and LIBOR scandals, to appreciate that the principals have never been held to account for the ‘minor’ crime of crashing the entire global economy and that’s not to mention the now widely known crimes of the neocons and Bush regime for lying the western world into illegal wars and horrendous human holocausts – the masses therefore are a dead loss as history and REALITY verifies for anyone that cares to take a look.

However, we have learned that the masses are easily managed and that a huge shock or trauma must be applied to engage their services and compliance regardless of the social costs involved. That shock would come today as global financial collapse and nuclear war, as the current status quo is clearly unsustainable. Hell’s gates are about to be blown wide open, but as a cultural analyst I know you don’t believe me.
