Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution by Antony C. Sutton

"... Suppose — and it is only hypothesis at this point — that American monopoly capitalists were able to reduce a planned socialist Russia to the status of a captive technical colony? Would not this be the logical twentieth-century internationalist extension of the Morgan railroad monopolies and the Rockefeller petroleum trust of the late nineteenth century?"

About Professor Sutton "And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken" (Ecclesiastes 4:12). Though he was a prolific author, Professor Sutton will always be remembered by his great trilogy: Wall St. and the Bolshevik Revolution,Wall St. and the Rise of Hitler, and Wall St. and FDR. Professor Sutton left rainy, cloudy England for sunny California in 1957. He was a voice crying in the academic wilderness when most of the U. S. colleges had sold their souls for Rockefeller Foundation money. Of course he came to this country believing that it was the land of the free and the home of brave. Professor Sutton (1925-2002). ANTONY C. SUTTON was born in London in 1925 and educated at the universities of London, Gottingen, and California. A citizen of the United States since 1962, he was a Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution for War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford, California from 1968 to 1973, where he produced the monumental three-volume study, Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development. In 1974, Professor Sutton completed National Suicide: Military Aid to the Soviet Union, a best-selling study of Western, primarily American, technological and financial assistance to the U.S.S.R. Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler is his fourth book exposing the role of American corporate insiders in financing international socialism. The two other books in this series are Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution and Wall Street and FDR. Professor Sutton has contributed articles to Human Events, The Review of the News, Triumph, Ordnance, National Review, and many other journals. He is currently working on a two-part study of the Federal Reserve System and the manipulation of the U.S. economic system. Married and the father of two daughters, he lived in California.

Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler Wall Street and FDR. The War on Gold How the Order Controls Education. (Yale University's Skull and Bones unmasked). Yale is the evil twin versus Harvard which is the good university!! Editor's Note Sunny California was discovered in 1579 by Saint Francis Drake in his ship the Golden Hind. He called the land Nova Albion or New Albion and claimed it for his sovereign Queen Elizabeth I —daughter of saint ANNE BOLEYN and King Henry VIII. There were no SPANIARDS there at that time because the natives came out to meet Saint Francis and treated him and his crew with love and affection. Had the Spaniards been there before that time, the natives would have all ran and hid themselves fearing that the white men were Spaniards with their cruel Inquisition and blood-thirsty dogs. ______________________________________________________ Author's Note Does this story continue on in China via the Russo-Wall Street syndicate? See: Flawed icon of China's resurgence "We have stood up," Mao said to the Chinese people in October 1949 Mao Tse-tung (1893-1976) Excerpt from article: Sun Yat-sen In 1923 the Communist International -- the Comintern -- directed the Chinese Communists to work with Sun Yat-sen's Kuomintang (Nationalist Party). The Comintern had promised Sun that if he would ally with the Communists, the Soviet Union would give him military advisers and arms to build a viable army that could reunify the country by overthrowing the warlords, who had seized upon the chaos and taken control of large areas.
