FOREWORD
Those Who Reign Supreme:
John McCain—Just One of Many
American Disciples of the Rothschild Empire
Some
cynics say that Sen. John McCain’s visit to London in the
spring of 2008 to attend a fundraiser for his presidential candidacy
hosted by Lord Jacob Rothschild of the international banking empire
may have been quite simply a case of McCain going directly to
Rothschild for his marching orders rather than having them transmitted
through one of the many Rothschild retainers who make it their
duty to tell politicians worldwide what to do and when and how
to do it.
As
if to underscore his allegiances, prior to paying court to Rothschild,
McCain made a visit to Israel, the Middle East state that counts
the Rothschild family as among its chief patrons, to the point
that an earlier Rothschild, Edmond, of the Paris-based arm of
the international banking family, is honored on Israel’s
currency today.
Perhaps
not surprisingly, McCain was accompanied to the Rothschild gala
(and to Israel) by his good Jewish friend and fellow devotee of
Israel, Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.), who endorsed McCain and
was often being mentioned as either a vice-presidential running
mate for McCain or as a likely secretary of state in a McCain
administration.
Although
McCain’s sponsor, Lord Rothschild (as a citizen of Britain)
was not permitted by American law to make campaign contributions
directly to McCain, Rothschild was permitted, however, to host
a big-ticket fundraising reception for McCain attended by Americans
in London in the Rothschild sphere of influence who were willing
to pay a minimum of $1,000 per person for the privilege of mixing
it up with the American candidate who was then clearly the Rothschild
family’s favorite for the GOP nomination.
That
the Rothschild empire would support McCain should come as no surprise
to those familiar with McCain’s record.
First
of all, McCain has been a longtime member of the Council on Foreign
Relations (CFR). Although, on Oct, 30, 1993, The Washington
Post described the CFR as “the nearest thing we have
to a ruling establishment in the United States,” saying
that they are “the people who, for more than half a century,
have managed our international affairs and our military-industrial
complex,” what the Post did not say was that the CFR is
actually only a New York-based division of the grandly-named Royal
Institute of International Affairs, which has functioned as the
foreign policy-making arm of the Rothschild Dynasty, long the
prime mover, behind the scenes, of Britain’s imperial ventures,
the real force behind the so-called “British” Empire.
So
those who prefer to talk about the CFR as being the driving force
behind the New World Order — but who avoid mentioning the
Rothschild connection — are being disingenuous, at best.

In
addition, of course, McCain’s own backstage connections
in his home state of Arizona are equally intriguing and point
even further to the reasons why the Rothschilds are enamored with
McCain.
As
American Free Press — first and singularly in the
media — pointed out, McCain’s late father-in-law,
Jim Hensley, was a top figure in the organized crime network surrounding
one Kemper Marley who acted as front man in Arizona for the Bronfman
family — key players in a powerful Jewish crime syndicate
that is often popularly (though inaccurately) referred to as “the
Mafia”—who used Marley to control both major parties
in that state.
The
Bronfman family have long been allied with the Rothschilds as
among the leading billionaire patrons of Israel and the global
Zionist movement, so much so that Edgar Bronfman, head of the
dynasty, was, for many years, chief of the World Jewish Congress
(WJC), which is now lorded over by his son Matthew, who is chairman
of the WJC’s governing board. (Later in this volume, we
will explore the Bronfman family in some detail.)
In
2000, when McCain first ran for president, Edgar Bronfman was
a contributor to his campaign. And at the time McCain included
among his closest advisors the ubiquitous voice for Jewish interests,
William Kristol of the stridently pro-Israel neo-conservative
journal, The Weekly Standard, whose owner, media baron
Rupert Murdoch, rose to wealth and power through the sponsorship
of the Rothschild and Bronfman families.
And
Kristol, it should be noted, has attended the secretive Bilderberg
meetings that are sponsored annually by the Rothschild family
in partnership with their American henchmen, the Rockefeller family.
(For a complete history of Bilderberg from the one journalist
who has traveled the globe for 30 years following their activities,
see Jim Tucker’s Bilderberg Diary.)
So
the McCain-Bronfman-Rothschild connection is intimate on multiple
levels and explains much about McCain’s long-standing tendency
to be a feverish advocate for Israeli (and Jewish) interests.
McCain
has said that he is “driven” by “Wilsonian principles,”
— the internationalist philosophy that U.S. military might
should be used to enforce what ultimately is indeed the NewWorld
Order.
And
the record shows that McCain has long been part of an elite group
promoting U.S. military action in defense of Israel. According
to the Aug. 2, 1996 issue of the London-based Jewish Chronicle,
McCain was a member of the self-styled Commission on America’s
National Interest that issued a report rating Israel as a “blue
chip” interest for the United States worth “spending
serious treasure and serious blood on,” — a conclusion
many might question. The report ranked Israel’s survival
“on a par with preventing nuclear, biological and nuclear
attacks on the U.S. as a vital American interest.” The Chronicle
summarized the report, quoting the group, with the headline: “Americans
‘should go to war to defend Israel.’”

In
2006, for his enthusiastic efforts on Israel’s behalf, the
Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA) gave McCain
its “distinguished service award” named in memory
of the late Sen.Henry M. Jackson (D-Wash.), another“ Goy”
who — like McCain — shamelessly worked ‘round-the-clock
on behalf of Jewish and Israeli interests while serving in Congress.
To
be hailed by JINSA, however, is a dubious honor, inasmuch as several
people associated with JINSA including its founder Stephen Bryen,
and Bryen’s close friend, Richard Perle (another regular
attendee at the meetings of the aforementioned Bilderberg group)
as well as Pau Wolfowitz (briefly, most recently, president of
the World Bank) have all been investigated by the FBI in past
years on suspicion of espionage on behalf of Israel.
In
the spring of 2008, McCain received the formal public endorsement
of the unrivaled royal family of international Zionism —
the Rothschilds. Later, as if to emphasize the point, Lynn Forrester
de Rothschild, the American-born wife of Evelyn de Rothschild
— another of the London-based Rothschilds — quit her
post on the Democratic Party’s national policy committee
(from which she had been a supporter of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s
presidential ambitions) and endorsed McCain over Democratic presidential
nominee Barack Obama.
Ironically,
though, in this same context, it should be noted that the aforementioned
longtime McCain supporter (and Rothschild satellite) Edgar Bronfman
declined to support McCain after the Republican presidential nominee
picked controversial Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running
mate. Although Mrs. Palin was a fervent supporter of Israel, Bronfman
found the woman distasteful and chose to support Barack Obama
instead.
But
the fact is that Obama himself — despite rumors suggesting
that he was less than friendly to Israel — has a history
of his own of having been operating under the tutelage of powerful
Jewish interests with ties to Israel and the Jewish organized
crime syndicate: namely, the Chicago-based Crown and Pritzker
families (more about whom later in these pages).
So
the bottom line remains that, in the 2008 presidential election,
the Rothschild Dynasty and the New Pharisees had effective control
over both of the presidential candidates of the major parties
in the United States.
In
any case, it should be said that there is absolutely no question
that the Rothschilds constitute the “Royal Family of International
Jewry.” Israeli writer Amos Elon in his book, Founder:
A Portrait of the First Rothschild and His Time, published
in 1996, reported the story of a certain Jew who, when asked why
Jews were so proud when they had no princes and no part in any
government, replied: “We are not princes, yet we govern
them.”
Rabbi
Joseph Telushkin, an eminent modern-day Jewish religious arbiter
and popularly-published spokesman for Jewish concerns, has written:
“To this day, the Rothschilds remain the aristocrats of
Jewish life . . .‘the’ symbols
32 |

of wealth.” (Amazingly,
for the record of accuracy, Telushkin nonetheless asserted that
the Rothschilds are no longer the richest family among the Jews
— an assertion which reality, as outlined in the pages of
The New Babylon, suggests otherwise.)
And
that the Rothschild heritage has always been devoted to the principles
of their Jewish faith is a point that must not be forgotten. It
is integral to understanding the entirety of the role that the
Rothschild family and their satellites in the international banking
world have played in shaping the course of global affairs: their
singular pursuit of a New World Order.
In
our opening pages, we cited one of Rothschild family founder Meyer’s
earliest biographers — an admiring one at that — as
saying that “Rothschild was a zealous believer in the Talmud
and chose it alone as the guiding principle of all his actions.”
And that pivotal fact is worth citing once again.
Famed
Jewish historian Chaim Bermant noted that Meyer Amschel, the founder
of the Rothschild dynasty, was educated in a rabbinical school
and that he “cherished every Jewish tradition.” His
wife, Gittel, was the classic Jewish matriarch of legend, as all
accounts of the Rothschild family attest.
Of
the Rothschilds, Israeli historian Amos Elon, in his own biography
of the Rothschild’s founding father, wrote: “Unlike
other assimilated Jews, they emphasized, even flaunted, their
ethnicity and religion.”
The
Rothschilds were indeed very religious Jews — very religious.
Amschel in Frankfurt (Meyer’s son) retained his “old
Hebrew customs and habits” and it was said that he was regarded
as “the most religious Jew in Frankfurt,” and even
had a synagogue in his own house. The Rothschilds did not trust
converts from Judaism to Christianity. “It is a bad thing,”
said James Rothschild, “when one has to deal with an apostate.”
According
to Niall Ferguson’s recent (Rothschild family-assisted)
study of the Rothschild family, the Rothschilds were particularly
tenacious in their religiosity: “Any weakening of Jewish
unity struck [the Rothschilds] as self defeating in a hostile
world.”
The
Rothschilds were known to have persecuted a member of their own
family, Hannah, who married a Gentile and converted to Christianity.
Niall Ferguson noted that Hannah had “crossed one of the
few barriers which remained between the Rothschilds and the European
social elite, and perhaps the only one which the Rothschilds themselves
wished to preserve.” So there is no question that the Rothschilds
did maintain a Talmudic and Judeo-centric attitude, despite their
common intercourse with the Christian crowned heads and noble
families of Europe.
And
this is noteworthy, inasmuch as other Jewish banking families
in England did intermarry on a wide-ranging basis with scores
of members of England’s aristocratic families. (To put it
bluntly: The Jews got the titles and the prestige and the English
aristocrats got the Jewish money!)

Niall
Ferguson noted there had been an era when the Rothschilds had
“a mythic, talismanic status in the eyes of other Jews;
not only the Jews of the Kings, but also the ‘Kings of the
Jews’ — at once exalted by their wealth and yet mindful
of their own lowly origin.”
As
early as 1835 and 1836, even the little Niles (Ohio)
Weekly Register in the new American nation, commented
that“The Rothschilds are the wonders of modern banking .
. . .” and added, pointedly:
We
see the descendants of Judah after persecution of 2,000 years
peering above kings, rising higher than emperors, and holding
a whole continent in the hollow of their hands.
The
Rothschilds govern a Christian world. Not a cabinet moves without
their advice. They stretch their hand with equal ease, from
St. Petersburg to Vienna, from Vienna to Paris, from Paris to
London, from London to Washington.
Baron
Rothschild . . . is the true King of Judah, the prince of the
captivity, the Messiah so long looked for by this extraordinary
people. He holds the keys of peace or war, blessing or cursing
. . .
They
are the brokers and counselors of the kings of Europe and of
the republican chiefs of America. What more can they desire?
The
recognition that this family emerged to have such immense power
was quite well summarized by Thomas Duncombe, a member of the
British parliament, who said in the late 1870s, that
There
is . . . a secret influence behind the throne, whose form is
never seen, whose name is never breathed, who has access to
all the secrets of State. . . . Closely connected with this
invisible, this incorporeal person, stands a most solid and
substantial form, a new, and formidable power, till these days
unknown in Europe; master of unbounded wealth, he boasts that
he is the arbiter of peace and war, and that the credit of nations
depends upon his nod; his correspondents are innumerable; his
couriers outrun those of sovereign princes and absolute sovereigns;
ministers of state are in his pay. Paramount in the cabinets
of continental Europe, he aspires to the domination of our own
. . .That such secret influences do exist are a matter of notoriety
. . . I believe their object to be as impure as the means by
which their power has been acquired, and denounce them and their
agents . . .
One
of the great crusaders against the Rothschild Empire in the 19th
Century was an eloquent Frenchman, Edouard Drumont. One of his
famed

works was The Jews Against
France. Speaking of the phenomenon of Jewish power, he wrote:
Thanks
to their genius as conspirators and traffickers, they have reconstituted
a Money Power which is formidable, not only on account of the
innate power which money possesses, but also because the Jews
have diminished or destroyed the other Powers so that theirs
alone remains standing; because they have modeled, shaped, a
society in which money is the true master of everything. This
Money Power, like all powers, looks after its own interests,
it goes in the direction which seems the most profitable.
The
recognition that the Rothschilds were very much an “international”
family, in more ways than one, came to be a part of the lore surrounding
this immense empire of money. John Reeves wrote The Rothschilds:
The Financial Rulers of Nations, published in 1887 and asserted
quite directly: “The Rothschilds belong to no one nationality.
They are cosmopolitan . . . They belong to no party. They were
ready to grow rich at the expense of friend and foe alike.”
The
famed German nobleman and widely-traveled author Prince Hermann
Ludwig Heinrich von Pückler-Muskau compared Rothschild with
the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. The Sultan, he said, was a ruler
of all believers, while Rothschild was “the creditor of
all rulers.”
German
economist Freidrich List said Rothschild was “the pride
of Israel, the mighty lender and master of all the coined and
uncoined silver and gold in the old world, before whose money
box Kings and Emperors humbly bow.” In short, as Rothschild
biographer Niall Ferguson noted — Rothschild was “The
King of Kings.” It might be added, though, that most people
(at least in the West) would consider Jesus Christ the King of
Kings.
In
1830 the aforementioned Niles (Ohio) Weekly Register
spoke of the Rothschild family as being those who would reclaim
the Holy Land for the Jewish people, foreshadowing the fact that
— indeed — the Rothschilds would emerge as the chief
patrons of the Zionist movement that led to the establishment
of the state of Israel in 1948:
[The
Rothschilds] are wealthy beyond desire, perhaps even avarice;
and so situated, it is quite reasonable to suppose that they
may seek something else to gratify their ambition . . .
If
secured in the possession [of Palestine], which may be brought
about by money, they might instantly, as it were, gather a large
nation together, soon to become capable of defending itself
and having a wonderful influence over the commerce and condi-

tion of the East — rendering
Judah again the place of deposit of a large portion of the wealth
of the “ancient world.”
To
the Sultan [of the Ottoman Empire], the country [Palestine]
is of no great value, but in the hands of the Jews, directed
by such men as the Rothschilds, what might it not become, and
in a short period of time?
That
the Rothschilds were perceived in an almost mystical fashion is
very clear, inasmuch as there were those who predicted (quite
accurately) that not only Palestine but all of Europe would fall
into the hands of the Rothschild Empire.
In
October 1840, the French journal, Univers said: “On
David’s throne, once it is restored, there will sit that
financial dynasty which all Europe recognizes and to which all
Europe submits.”
French
socialist Charles Fourier said, “The restoration of the
Hebrews [to Palestine] would be a splendid coronation for the
gentlemen of the House of Rothschild. Like Esra and Serubabel,
they can lead the Hebrews back to Jerusalem and once again erect
the throne of David and Solomon in order to call into being a
Rothschild dynasty.”
Interestingly,
in the early years of its flowering, the British-Jewish “Cousinhood”
— as so dubbed by Chaim Bermant — was, according to
Bermant, anti-Zionist “almost to a man,” opposing
the establishment of a Jewish state. In particular — and
this is of special note — the Rothschilds were especially
fervent in opposition to Zionism, more so perhaps than other members
of those interlocking families.
Lionel
Rothschild was one of the few exceptions among the Rothschilds
opposing Zionism, and in 1915, upon the death of his father, he
became head of the family — he was thus “The”
Rothschild — and assuming his position in the House of Lords,
his support for Zionism gave an immense boost to the Zionist cause.
It was Lionel to whom the famed Balfour Declaration was addressed.
However, it was Baron Edmond de Rothschild (of France) who was
known by the Jews of Palestine as “the Known Benefactor”
for his generous patronage of Zionism and with the conversion
of this Jewish dynasty to support for Zionism, the state of Israel
ultimately came into being.
Thus,
the power of International Jewish Finance — dominated by
the Rothschild Dynasty — adopted Zionism as a formal part
of the drive for a Jewish Utopia. The foundation for the rise
of the New World Order was set in place. And world history was
set on an all new — and perilous — course.
