The KGB, active measures, disinformation and subversion. This is a natural progression from us looking at the gay GB and the pink inquisition today because when we looked at that last week some people were asking the question what exactly were the KGB and of course we have dealt with the inquisition on other occasions but The KGB was a term of terror in the Soviet Union and throughout Eastern Europe for most of the 20th century. The KGB was the acronym for Committee for State Security in the Soviet Union, of course with a Cyrillic alphabet that doesn't quite equate to our KGB, but that's what it stood for, the Committee for State Security. Initially it was called the Cheka, which meant Emergency Committee. And it was founded on the 20th of December 1917, one of the first things produced out of the Bolshevik revolution in Russia. By the instruction of Vladimir Lenin personally, the Cheka was instituted. And this was a key arm to bring about the success of the Bolshevik revolution. Now the Red Army was under Leonid Trotsky. Trotsky ran the Red Army and a huge amount of the massacres. But, they also needed a secret police, and that was the Cheka. And Felix Dzerzhansky was selected personally by Vladimir Lenin to set up the Cheka. And the Cheka was tasked by the Soviet Politburo with arresting, torturing and executing the many tens of thousands of dissidents. Amazing. They claimed to have run this revolution in the name of the people, but obviously not all the people were convinced that it had been done for their good and in their name, and they needed to be arrested and tortured and convinced, or killed. And there were deserters, lots of them. Reactionaries. What's a reactionary? Well, somebody who says, I'm cold, I'm hungry, or it was better under the Tsar. That would be a reactionary. Someone who's bringing facts up, such as, well, it doesn't seem like peace and freedom to me. This doesn't seem very much like progress at all. And counter-revolutionaries. Now, what's a counter-revolutionary? Well, an evangelist could be a counter-revolutionary. A person who believed in working for change or resisting the change or didn't think it was a good idea to give the family farm over to the Commissar to abuse, that would be a counter-revolution. So the Cheka was the first Soviet secret police and they used terrorism, torture, assassination, espionage on a higher order than has ever been seen in the world. There has never been a secret police to compare with the KGB. At one stage they had four million people in the KGB. They had no problem turning their machine guns on crowds demonstrating in the streets for things like Red. Now by the way, just to give you a bit of a perspective, the Tsar was terrible and oppressive. He had a secret police of something like 750, and in an average year there might be in a huge country that covered 9 time zones in the Russian Empire, they could have up to 80 or even 90 executions in a year. But under the Commissars, when they were free, they could go to the hundreds of thousands and millions of executions in a single year, and they had a secret police that swirled to four million. But remember, the Tsar was bad and he oppressed the people, but the Communists liberated them and they were standing for freedom. And here's the Cheka chief. He is known as Iron Felix. He was chosen because he was a particularly merciless creature, and while he was Lenin's right-hand man, Stalin, also could relax, smile, laugh, and put his arm around Felix Dzerzhinsky, because he was his kind of person. Stalin didn't let down his hair with many people, but Felix Dzerzhinsky was one person he could trust, because he killed everybody that Stalin wanted him to kill. In 1922 the checker was renamed NKVD because emergency committee didn't seem appropriate anymore because emergencies can only be temporary. And by 1922 they'd killed just about everyone they needed to, so they then changed it to NKVD, which is short for People's Commissariat for Internal Affairs. don't be misled. It was not internal at all. They went as far as Mexico City to put an axe through the head of Trotsky who fell out with Stalin. And so on May Day in Red Square they'd have marches showing different parts of the great communist liberation revolutionary hero parade and Dzerzhinsky would always have a great place of honor in the idolatry that was communism. and there are statues of Kaczynski all over the place. This one, for example, outside the Bolshevik secret police headquarters in St. Petersburg, what they called Leningrad. The NKVD included the regular public police force of the USSR, it went even down to traffic police, border guards, archives, but it was run by the secret police. The NKVD is most notorious for running the Gulag, the GULAG, forced labor camps. GULAG was the acronym for Main Administration of Corrective Labor Camps. We wouldn't even know the term for it, except for the fact that one of the greatest Russians of the 20th century, Alexander Solzhenitsyn, wrote the GULAG archipelago, and he gave the term GULAG in English because that's the acronym for Main Administration for Corrective Labor Camps in Russia. And he helped us to understand and put a face to it with books like One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich. 1,200 concentration camps throughout Russia. Most of them in Siberia. Hideous conditions. If you want to get an understanding of it, there's not many films made, but there's one, As Far As My Feet Will Carry Me. which is a film made of a German prisoner of war at the end of the Second World War who was put in Siberia and he escaped. It took him years being trapped, escaping every kind of condition, but he actually managed to get back to his family, which is extraordinary. Going across how many time zones? Something like seven time zones and many thousands of kilometers by foot, being pursued and evading the communists the whole way along. These camps Hollywood is never going to make films on it, because as Alexander Solzhenitsyn said, Hollywood's run by the same people who organized the Bolshevik Revolution, so of course they wouldn't expose their atrocities of their number one heroes. But the reality is that 50 million Russians were sucked into the Gulag archipelago and died in hideous and brutal conditions. And today, the books are there, although don't expect to find them at exclusive books, you'll have to order them because they won't put them on the shelves. The NKVD conducted mass executions, ran the Gulag forced labor camps, extermination camps, lots of extrajudicial executions. They were the secret police responsible for executing the will of the Soviet Union. Nikolai Yezhov, who was the top executor after Yagoda, who killed something in the region of 16,000 people personally, he claimed, and Yezhov went into the many thousands, I think he personally shot over 4,000 odd people, which is about the same amount as Che Guevara claimed. Che Guevara claimed that he had killed several thousand people personally with shots to the head, that's people with their hands tied behind their back, including women and children, right down to kids. but they were bourgeois, I'm sure they deserved it. He presided over the Great Terror and the Purges of 1937-1938 and a great hero, poster child of the Soviet Union because he murdered so many Christians. And the chief executioner of the NKVD, the one who gets the world record, Vasily Blokken, I think he claims 48,000 executions that he personally carried out and he got all these awards for his executions. That's not for bravery in battle, that's for murdering enemies of the state while they are disarmed and being kept under bayonet control behind a barbed wire. And these are just some of the many documentations we've got of the massacres done by the NKVD. huge massacres and not all of them are fortunate enough to have a grave even to mark where they were murdered. But there is an attempt today to put together the names and the testimonies and the details of the millions and millions of Christians which included 200,000 pastors shot by the NKVD and the KGB. Of course the NKVD also organized espionage And as early as 1917 they recruited an American who was very happy to work for them because the Communists had a lot of sympathy across all nationalities early on and they were able to infiltrate very high in America and Britain. They did political assassinations, of course, lots of them, sometimes tens of thousands in a given year of high, even top, Communist leaders. Top, top, top. I mean people who've been in the first wave they murdered a lot of their own. And these are some of the special camps that they ran, and some of the guards. Of course the NKVD enforced Stalinist policy within all the communist movements in other countries, made sure that they're all carbon copies. and this was a cult of the Chairman, as they called it. At the end of the Second World War, thanks to the Allies and all the Western supports, and especially from Franklin Delano Roosevelt, they were able to take over 100 million Christians in 15 countries and extend the borders of Communism all the way to Central Europe, where they oppressed the people for the next 45 years. The NKVD was officially responsible to protect the state security of the Soviet Union, which apparently needed massive political repression, including kidnappings, murders, assassinations, both locally and internationally. Most famously, seeing that Trotsky, who was one of the three top communist leaders, along with Lenin, Stalin and himself, they were the top three, the Marx brothers, And when he fell out with Stalin, he ended up with an axe in his head in Mexico City. So the NKVD showed that a long arm. Those designated enemies of the people, apparently you're not a person if you're an enemy of the party. So I don't say enemy of the party, I say enemy of the people. Because the people are the party. If you're not part of the party, you're not people. Right? Make sense? They were sent to gulag camps and many hundreds of thousands were executed by the NKVD. In fact, the statistics go into the millions. The families of those designated enemies of the people included their children, who were automatically suppressed according to NKVD Order 486. And then the NKVD did the show trials and the Great Purge of 447. Now that was 1937, 1938, the show trials, where they had one after the other of top communist leaders who had been some of the most faithful, loyal communists, but for whatever reason, just to keep everyone in terror, Stalin would regularly order these purges and have sometimes his most loyal, hard-working, not just lieutenants and colonels, generals, Politburo members, have them hauled up there, and they would all confess their crime, whatever it was, this is a unique communist thing, and they would call for death penalty to be imposed on themselves and pledge undying loyalty to Chairman Joseph Stalin and to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, which was done as recently as when the field marshal of the Cuban forces in Angola, who is in charge of all communist forces in Angola, including the Russian forces, the Angolans, the Cubans are all under him, and he is one of Fidel Castro's closest buddies, one of his original twelve. who had invaded Batista's Cuba, and he put his friend, the field marshal, highest ranking Cuban officer on trial for his life, and he pleaded guilty, called for the death penalty to be imposed on himself for losing the war against the fascist South Africans, and he was executed by firing squad. Now how can you get people, only in a communist country do people plead guilty, call for the death penalty to be imposed on themselves. How do they do that? They torture and If you don't do this, we're going to get every one of your family. It's basically that way. This is how it works. It was called the Great Terror, the Purge of the 30s, and the people who were killed then, they were not the monarchists, they were not the counter-revolutionaries. They had either been killed, been shipped off to the Gulag, or they'd fled to Western Europe. the people being purged were the mind your own business types or dedicated communists. It's an extraordinary thing. You've got to read Animal Farm to understand the mentality of this great terror. And then the Ukrainians were just not getting enthusiastic enough about communism so they had well over six million perish in the Holdomor or the Soviet famine which was deliberate organised by Stalin. And when Stalin was confronted about this by a journalist from America, he said, the death of one person is a tragedy, but the death of a million is just a statistic. There are a lot of documentations that have come out now on the Great Purge and the political genocide in the Soviet Union but don't expect this to be taught in our schools or in history books or dealt with in museums or on any Hollywood films anytime soon because the people running our media seem to love the Soviet Union and the Communists. Here's a case of 2000 upper-class Lithuanians seized unexpectedly by the NKVD and Lithuanian put to death mass graves being organized. These are just some of the massacres of Lithuanians that has been documented from June 1941 alone. Now remember Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, the Baltic states that were invaded by the Soviet Union in 1940. But you're not meant to think about that because the Soviet Union were the good guys, remember? They were our allies. And these were the NKVD officers deployed behind the Soviet army. And the job of the NKVD troops was to shoot any Russian who turned back. Except the Russian army is the only army where it was more dangerous to retreat than it was to face the enemy. And so basically these people would set up their machine guns behind and they would shoot anyone who retreated. So, you know, what a Great joy to know that you've got, when they say we've got your back, they meant it in a very different way. Massive massacres. But, one could carry on all night about that. Let's go on to active measures. Most people don't know about active measures. Active measures was a Soviet term for the actions of political warfare conducted by the Soviet security forces. In other words, first the Cheka, then the NKVD, and in our lifetime, the KGB. to influence the course of world events. Now, how many of you have heard of active measures before? Of course, Ms. Scarborough would. How many of you know this term, active measures? It should be known by all of us because, as somebody said, you may not take an interest in active measures, but active measures takes an interest in you. In addition to the KGB and NKVD collecting intelligence and producing politically correct assessments of it, by the way, the main newspaper was called Pravda. which means truth. And so the Russians would say there's nothing true and prompted. And the other newspaper is called Izvestia, which means news. So let's say there's nothing new in Izvestia and there's nothing true and prompted. But in addition to collecting the information intelligence they would also produce propaganda of course which this reads under the leadership of the great Stalin forward to communism you see all these happy enthusiastic people who are just ecstatic about being under such a wonderful man as Joseph Stalin and so on the back of their playing cards would be pictures of Stalin and everyone would just be so enthralled to have the privilege of having such a wonderful person. And they had these massive idols of Lenin. This is idolatry of a high order. I don't think since the pharaohs and the Caesars there's been any emperor worship like what the Soviet Union produced. Well of course they're trying very hard in South Africa now with Mandela Mania and Mandela Day, but you can see where they get the inspiration from. Mandela's to be the Lenin of South Africa, like the Lincoln of America. Now, active measures included media manipulation through disinformation. Now, understand the difference. There's misinformation. Misinformation is a mistake. Typographical error, misunderstanding, something like that. Disinformation is deliberate. Deliberate giving false information. Propaganda. Counterfeiting official documents. Infiltrating churches. Intimidating dissidents. such as what's going on at GCT right now, somebody's a dissenter, they disagree with official party politically correct line, you've got to intimidate them. Character assassinations, that's what the newspaper's doing right now, calling someone who disagrees with their gender a homophobe or a bigot or something. Fines, imprisonments and of course assassinations. Now counterfeiting official documents, there's a lot of counterfeiting of official documents. And some historians have pointed out For example, David Irving is an excellent example of this. He's pointed out this counterfeiting of official documents. He points out, you do realize that in the Second World War, typewriters didn't have these hash keys, these where we've got the italics quote marks it didn't have the semicolons and there's a whole lot of things and so some people who don't know how the history works so well have produced sometimes on paper that's so white they didn't have the bleaching capabilities of paper back then that they have now and they have typewriters with type styles that hadn't been invented yet And of course then you have the other thing, as I point out, there's a lot of official documents that people accept and display in even major museums, which are written with ballpoint pens, purporting to be written in the Second World War, but ballpoints weren't invented until 1951. So, you know, how on earth can you accept this as historic or true? He said, for example, when the Hitler diaries came out and they were being hawked for millions and serialized in a whole lot of newspapers and magazines. And he said, but stand back for a moment and have a look. It was 18 leather-bound, identical books. He said, look at the amount of it. You're telling me a penniless painter in Vienna walked into a shop back in Vienna in 1906 and said, I'll have 18 of those, please. Where would he keep them? How would he transport all these diaries through the Iparo trenches? So this kind of counterfeiting, he said, it's so obvious. Just look at it. Nobody, I mean, I've got diaries. They're all different. because every year there's different sort of ones you don't have and yet everyone was suckered because they wanted to believe they had them but it was just disinformation something that active measures would produce and it's easy to counterfeit official documents if people want to believe what's in it but whenever you get something distrust it's groups who've got a job to just produce false documents Active measures included the establishment and support of international front organisations like the World Peace Council, which the 100th Century KGB run, setting up terrorist groups, or wars of national liberation in third world countries, which Fidel Castro was often the front man to organise, infiltrating the World Council of Churches, which they did so well that they ended up running it, infiltrating educational institutions, one of the greatest important places of infiltration is universities, in fact, I learned in military intelligence 101 that the communists teach the commissars there are five areas you must infiltrate to take control of the country. Number one is educational institutions, that is the thumb. The next is news media, then entertainment industry, religious institutions, and finally political institutions. But if you get the educational institutions, you'll ultimately get them all. The entertainment industry, is Hollywood controlled by people who love communism, or what? Well, as Alexander Solzhenitsyn points out, they never exposed the trustee of the communists. They only manufacture trustees for the people who were the most hostile enemies of the communists, and therefore who controls Hollywood. Well, Alexander Solzhenitsyn got that right. And the news media, of course, who keep manufacturing distractions and articles that'll try to nitpick, say, you know, forget mass murder going on all over the world and let's try and attack some group of historians in London who are minding their own business just discussing history. Now this is the kind of thing that they can occupy themselves full-colour exposés in the British newspapers about something that's not even a scandal while they're trying to tell us that Islamic terrorism is not a problem. Slime Magazine has put how many mass-murdering thugs on the cover? And, you know, Russia, the New Direction, this is... Under this man, Khrushchev, they were murdering people, but he had 50,000 pastors killed in one year. This man is as brutal as they come, and yet they were trying to suggest a new dawn. And, of course, they even would sponsor rock concerts, music things, class war music and all that. KGB General Oleg Kalugin described active measures as the heart and soul of Soviet intelligence. It has now come out, since the death of Nelson Mandela, that he always was a senior member of the Communist Party of South Africa Politburo, and that's why his right-hand man was his KGB controller, who's Colonel Joe Slover. Colonel Joe Slover, he wrote the script. that Nelson Mandela worked with. This isn't a secret, we've known this for a long time. This was proved in the 60s actually. A lot of us knew this already in the 80s, but for some people, they only learnt at the end of 2013 that, oh, Nelson Mandela actually always was a communist, and he always was a member of the Communist Party Politburo, senior member of it, and so on. This is one of their most effective active measures, operations, is how they managed to hijack the ANC, and run it as a puppet of the KGB. Kalugin described active measures as subversion, active measures to weaken the West, to drive wedges in Western community, alliances of all sorts, particularly to undermine NATO, to sow discord amongst allies, infiltration and subversion in a word. To weaken the United States' alliance to the people of Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America and thus to prepare ground for revolution. The Andropov Institute in Yasenov near Moscow taught active measures as a system of special courses. It was a course. You'd go to university and you'd take active measures. Active measures was infiltration, subversion, disinformation, all of these things. Yuri Andropov was the chairman of the KGB and he later became chairman of the USSR, you might recall. He was later the so-called General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Now the head of the Active Measures Department was Uri Modin, the former controller of the Cambridge Five Spiring, the most famous, notorious British spiring of, as he puts it in his book. He was the handler by the KGB controller. You often speak of your controller as your handler. So he's got five hands. each of the Hammond-Sickle and it's red Hammond-Sickle. And he's even got the names of these top British agents who were all highly respected in an upper echelon of respect. They were all Cambridge graduates. They were the inside. Burgess, McLean, Filby, Blunt, Cancross. And so he speaks of my Cambridge friends, my five Cambridge friends. And so he was the one teaching active measures because, boy, he had real success behind him. As a KGB handler, he was at the top of his class. He could train a whole new generation of them because he had done it. Some of the famous active measures conducted by the KGB that are Documented by now declassified archives include stirring up racial tensions in the United States by staging incidents, by mailing bogus letters reported to come from the Ku Klux Klan, which in many cases were nothing but KGB fronts, placing explosive packages in Negro sections of the American population. They called it Operation Pandora. Why? You open Pandora's box and out comes all kinds of demons. And they saw America's weakest thing was multiculturalism stir up racial tensions. And boy, have they found it effective. Fabricating the story that the AIDS virus was manufactured by US scientists, these are just some now declassified active measures which were just started by the KGB. People like these, sitting in offices, working out stories that they can plant in Western papers. They exploited the peace movements. One Soviet department, the GRU, alone spent more than a billion US dollars to fund the peace movements in America that protested the Vietnam War. You wonder how the peace movements sprang up in all American universities and they had money for printing and T-shirts, banners, posters, magazines, adverts, whatever. Of course, Soviet Union gave them a billion dollars to fund the peace movement in America. And it was worth it. I mean, you think of the cost of weapons. This was far more effective. In fact, he described this as a hugely successful campaign, well worth the cost. Because you think of all those stupid if well-meaning and sincere, but still stupid, because the term is useful idiots that the communists would use, American students who were rioting, looting, pillaging, striking, burning, turning over vehicles, trashing vehicles, attacking soldiers in America, all while they were busy fighting communists in Vietnam and the governments were betraying them, but how effective to get your enemies to fight for another? Stanislav Lunev claimed that GRU and the KGB helped to fund just about every anti-war movement and organization in America, Great Britain, throughout Europe and South Africa. The end conscription campaign South Africa was funded by the KGB. Of course, very effective. Run down the road, down the road, the Ron Bosch Congregational Church. Who was the man who was the pastor there? Douglas Bax, yes. He ran the ECC offices right there, out of the church hall, and they used to have the end conscription campaign, what we called the Every Cow's Choice, the ECC, out of the church offices, gave them all the facilities, and they always seem to have money for full colour magazines and put out lots of funds. And now we know why. According to Oleg Kalugin, Soviet intelligence was really unparalleled. He's the author of Spymaster. And he said, now his job was battle for hearts and minds, and he did it by running peace organizations throughout the West. I noticed that, in fact I wrote articles at the time about this, isn't it interesting, the ban the bomb pacifists aren't marching in Moscow, or Peking, or Havana, or Harare. Why is it always marching in the West? Well, that's where they funded to do it. It's targeted against the victims, disarmed the victims. Tyrants prefer disarmed victims. So, Kalugin says, a KGB program which would run all sorts of congresses, peace congresses, youth congresses, festivals, women's movements, trade union movements, campaigns against America and Europe, storming the heavens, the godless communists, Allegations that AIDS was invented by the CIA, all kinds of forgeries, fake material targeted at politicians, the academic community and at the public at large. And he says the KGB is absolutely unique in the history of the world. There's never been a group that has changed the world so much as the KGB. The KGB was involved in toppling governments, setting up puppet regimes all over the world. The KGB undermined and installed governments at will. You could just organize mobs, false information, bring down this government, put up a new puppet organization. They did it all over Europe, and then they did it all over South America, and then they did it all over Africa, and then all over Asia. The KGB played a key role in stalling puppet communist regimes throughout the whole of Eastern Europe. And when they tried to modify it a bit, like in Czechoslovakia with the Prague Spring in 1968, they just invaded them and crushed the whole movement. rolled the tanks right in. The People's Republic of China was completely set up by the Soviet Union, the KGB. North Korea set up completely by the KGB. The KGB coordinated mass political repressions and establishment of subordinate secret services in all occupied territories, such as the Stasi in East Germany, who were shooting people in the back for trying to go from one part of Berlin to the other. And the groups all throughout Eastern Europe. It was an incredible amount of terror, but they were just KGB cookie cutters. They ran the secret police in Mozambique, in Angola, Ethiopia, all over. The last attempted coup organised by the KGB was the uprising against Boris Yeltsin during the Russian constitutional crisis of 1993, and this led to the abolition of the KGB and its replacement with the Federal Security Service, or the FSS, or the FSB actually is the correct term for it, if you follow their acronym, although it doesn't fully go over to English, and the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation. One of the tactics used by the KGB was an agent provocateur, or an inciting agent. And you might hear this term sometimes, where you hear somebody doing something really stupid, which seems to represent our side, and you say, how can anyone be that stupid? Well, they're probably an agent provocateur, someone who's an inciting agent organized from the other side. What is communism? Thesis, antithesis, synthesis. The revolutionaries need counter-revolutionaries to produce what they need. Because they can't justify the repressions or the things they want to do without counter-revolutionaries. They always need some enemies. You need thesis, you need anti-thesis, and then you get your synthesis. And so, in order to get the result they want, they'll often use an adjunct provocateur, an inciting agent. An agent provocateur is an undercover agent who acts to entice another person to commit an illegal act, or rash act, or who falsely implicates others in taking part in an illegal act, whether they've done it or not. The goal of the agent provocateur is to discredit or harm another group by provoking them to commit a crime or implicating them in a crime to undermine the group, the protest or the movement as a whole. For example, I was told by the head of military intelligence in South Africa at the time, General Tenny Kruenewald, that the AWB was set up by the National Party as an adjunct provocateur. They were planning major changes in the country and they knew there would be a lot of opposition. So, to channel and control the opposition to the government policy, they got a security policeman, Eugene de Blanche, he was a sergeant in the police, to set up this false organisation. He's a good speaker, he had a charismatic personality, but the whole time he was feeding the information, making sure that the government knew what was going on, and so all the people who were hostile to the government's policies flopped into AWB, and most of them would have been very sincere. But there was a lot of state agents, NIS, National Intelligence Service, that saturated the AWB, knew what was going on, that's why the AWB couldn't do anything that made a difference, because the moment they did, they'd all get arrested. And they had the Ace Ducada, for example, all reccees, reconnaissance commanders, special forces, top guys. And they all got roped up in one go, one fell swoop, all arrested, before they were about to do something at the 9th Support Handover. And so this was, as General Tenny Krugerwald said, he said it was a fake operation set up in order to channel and neutralize the anticipated threat, because if we didn't set it up, someone else would, and then we wouldn't know what they're going to do. And of course the KGB are experts in this. For example, in the trust operation of 1921 to 1926, the Cheka, and later the NKVD, set up fake anti-Bolshevik underground organizations such as the Monarchist Union of Central Russia. They knew the people who'd just lost everything in Russia and fled to Europe were going to set up anti-Bolshevik organizations, of course. So they set them up instead. So these people would come in, they could get the donations and get the volunteers and keep the people busy doing something, but just making sure that if anyone was really serious they'd either assassinate them or make sure they get captured the moment they cross the border or whatever. But it was to channel the opposition to communism that was bound to come. They just set up all the organizations themselves. They controlled and they neutralized all the monarchists, counter-revolutionaries that would be trying to overthrow the communist revolution in Russia. So the KGB used provocateurs to entrap and discredit anti-communist groups which they described as reactionaries and counter-revolutionaries. For example, you take the Ku Klux Klan, which they said they completely infiltrated, controlled, and were able, and because the people wore masks, they could often have people doing things and who'd know who it was, and that cross-burning. Why would Christians burn crosses? This is not exactly a pro-Christian way, but the symbolism, they try to make themselves look like Christians and look like patriots, whereas actually what they were doing is channeling in patriots and anti-communists and making sure that they either did stupid things or that they were betrayed. After the Second World War, many NKVD agents were sent to join and penetrate independence movements and to create puppet rebel movements. And so they betrayed the resistance fighters by acting like they were resistance fighters themselves. So you can imagine, they've got weapons, they've got funding, and people gather around them and this is the way they can work out these are the kind of revolutionaries that we need to get rid of by stabbing them at night or slitting their throat while they're sleeping. They even allowed these NKVD pseudos to attack local Soviet authorities to gain credibility and also this enabled them to exfiltrate NKVD agents to the West. and neutralize and betray true resistance movements and partisans. And some of these managed to get all the way into MI6, all the way into the CIA because they had done things that looked like, well they've really hurt the Soviets. The Russians are willing to lose a few people and have some places blown up and betray. They've been willing to betray whole armies in order to deceive the enemy. And of course Active measures meant promoting and directing global terrorism. KGB General Alexander Sakharovsky declared, in today's world, when nuclear arms have made worldwide force obsolete, terrorism should become our main weapon. And since 1946 that has been true. The NKVD and later the KGB have been training and arming terrorists, revolutionaries all over the world, and that's why they all have the Makarovs, the Tokarovs, the SKSs, the PKMs, the RPGs, because it's the Soviets who've been supplying them. Ion Mahai Pasepa, who's a top KGB defector, declared the KGB was the primary instructor of guerrillas worldwide. General Sarkovsky claimed, aeroplane hijacking is my own invention. Ion Mechaya Persepa. In 1969 alone, 82 aircraft were hijacked worldwide just by the PLO, which was financed and set up by the KGB, Palestinian Liberation Organization, which did so much damage and harm, funded by them, organized. Imagine one year, 82 aircraft hijacked. I mean the chaos this caused and the erosion of freedoms. I remember when I traveled in Rhodesia, by plane, we'd get on the aircraft and we'd walk up the tarmac and walk up there, no security, and on board the flight attendant would be saying, please ensure that your firearms are on safe and securely holstered and all rifles and machine guns placed in overhead compartments. And nobody ever hijacked a Rhodesian aircraft. It wasn't a problem. Since then, you can't even take nail cutters. I mean, it's just been ridiculous. But the KGB established the PLO. Imagine the chaos they caused in the West by the airplane hijackings. It was brilliant. And of course, propaganda pictures of find a good-looking terrorist and get pictures of it and try and popularize this. And Che Guevara, of course, has become an icon for the rock culture. Interesting. He's a man who hated blacks and killed gays. blacks and gays walk around with this picture on their t-shirt. That's clever. So the National Liberation Army of Bolivia was established in 1964 by the help of Che Guevara, who was a KGB trained agent, and he, by the way, gave some personal training to Nelson Mandela in Algeria, as Nelson Mandela even records that he got training by the Cubans, including by Che Guevara. And so you can see the march of the revolution. In the 1980s it had come right down to our borders, through Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Angola, and we were facing a serious threat. People forget the reality of the Cold War that was on the go in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. These were the revolutions organized by the Soviets at the heights of their power. This is the wars on the go in the 1970s and 80s, revolutions organised by the Soviets, they had one third of the world's population under their control. That's a phenomenal achievement and the KGB was at the heart of it. And they put dictators, brutal mass murdering, president for life dictators, emperors in some cases, and the end result, some poor mind his own business, tribesman gets tied to a post and shot without trial. That's the reality, and we had... South Africa was aflame. When I was growing up, the reality was the whole of South Africa was aflame, and the KGB, the Communists, and their puppets were fanning the flames and pouring the petrol on it. They funded the lead swapper. You could see the weapons. We took these off them. Soviet Cyrillic script or Chinese script. You could tell where the weapons came from. The car bombs, such as in Winter. Zanu PF in Zimbabwe, funded entirely by the communists, murdering tribesmen, butchering people, shooting and stabbing in the back, hacking their ears and lips off, murdering missionaries and their children. This was the reality. The shooting down of Rhodesian airliners, dressed in a Soviet uniform, Zarpu leader, Joshua Nkomo, standing in front of his terrace there with a Field Marshal's baton he had gotten from the Soviets. These people are puppets of the KGB. Total, complete puppets. They were installed to cause chaos because this is the way the Marxists work. They get active measures to get the local population to actually intimidate the people, Philemo. Notice the evolution of Philemo. First it looks like it's a national movement. There's a bit of red. Now there's a lot of red. Now there's mostly red. And in the end, Philemo's flag developed into its real colors. You can see the yellow five-pointed star, the hammer and the hoe, the factory worker and the peasant, united under the star of communism. The MPLA. black for the people, red for communism, yellow for the backbone. The yellow streak down the backbone, the moment we attacked they ran. But this, this was another movement entirely funded and organised by the KGB, it was one of their puppets. The ANC in South Africa, it's been documented, we've got books on it, it's been test fired in the US Senate under Jesse Helm and others, there is no question, the ANC was totally controlled by the Southern Communist Party, which is totally controlled by the KGB. The car bomb in Pretoria, 1982, totally organised by them. This is a front operation. The PACO attacked St. James. An active measures operation of the KGB. The KGB was also implicated in Mohammed Ali Akra's 1981 assassination. See the gun being pointed at Pope John Paul, 1981. Why did they target John Paul? because he was a Pole and he was very nationalistic and supportive of solidarity. Lech Walesa, Catholic Poland, anti-communist movement, which was rising up against the communists in Poland at that time, and this Polish Pope, who was putting the weight of the Catholic Church behind the anti-communist movement in Poland. He was a threat. They could handle any Pope except the Polish Pope. And so the KGB trained, organized, agitated, and armed this Muslim, Muhammad Ali Akra, to shoot the Pope. And yes, the Pope made some good counter-propaganda out of meeting with him and praying with him in the cell, but the point was he nearly died from that. And interesting, in 1981, two leaders in the anti-communist movement in the world, Ronald Reagan America and Pope John Paul, both shot and survived. They had the best security in the world, both of them, and it didn't stop them getting shot, and yet they still survived. And both of them went on to play a key role in bringing the Communists down to Eastern Europe. But, Solidarity did win, and they did beat the Communists, and that is a failure of active measures, but they did try to stop it. One of the more famous active measures is Al Gehis, an American lawyer, State Department official who became the first General Secretary of the United Nations, personally appointed by Franklin Delano Roosevelt, proven to be a KGB agent. The San Francisco UN Conference, where the UN was founded, set up Nelson Rockefeller, getting his instructions, Algehis was identified by Whitaker Chambers, a former Communist Party member, and Whitaker Chambers testified against Algehis as being a Communist, and he was imprisoned for perjury and for lying about his Communist affiliation. He was the senior US official who set up the United Nations, and it's proven he worked for the KGB. Whitaker-Chambers also identified Lawrence Duggan and Michael Straits in the State Department, and Harry Dexter White in the Treasury Department, who set up the International Monetary Fund, the IMF, which has been funding communists ever since, as Soviet agents. Lawrence Duggan on the right, and Harry Dexter White, total Soviet spy, commie beyond commies, and he set up the whole Treasury Department, IMF, International Monetary Fund, World Bank, all of that done while his primary allegiance is to the Soviet Union. Now, one of the most successful examples of active measures is the Profumo scandal in Britain. The Profumo scandal brought down Harold Macmillan's conservative governments in Great Britain and brought the Labour Party to power in the 1964 general election. It was a masterful example of KGB active measures including entrapment, honey trap as they called it, propaganda and assassination. John Profumo was the Secretary of State for War in Great Britain. I mean that's a very key position. MI5, MI6, Army, Navy, Air Force all under his control. Key man, the youngest cabinet minister in British history. He's 40 years old, he's tipped to be the next Prime Minister. John Profumo was a key target. He was married to actress Valerie Hobson he was really expected to go high. But he was involved for a short time in an affair with Christine Keeler, a 19-year-old model. Who, by the way, just happened to also be involved with a hideous man, Stephen Ward, who was working for the MI5, actually, Count Intelligence. He was working for the British Intelligence and he had a whole lot of call girls, good time girls, party girls who he used to be able to extract secrets, pillow talk, from a whole bunch of very important people. Now, it so happens he set the honey trap of Christine Keeler to ensnare Captain Yevgeny Ivanov, the Soviet military attache at the Soviet Embassy, obviously KGB agent. According to the official report of the British government and the media, this is a honey trap gone wrong, that he put Christine Keeler out there in order to entrap Captain Ivanov and she snared John Profumo instead. But, it's more twisted than that. The information we have is Stephen Ward was a double agent, he's actually working for the KGB. even though the British had tasked him to get Ivanov which Christine Keeler did. She also snared John Profumo which the British thought was a mistake but actually that could have been his primary goal because there's a lot of evidence he was working a double deal. Anyway let's get the story. Colonel Eugene Ivanov of Soviet military intelligence was a top brilliant war hero of the Soviet Union, whatever that means, and he was also on a career going high. He was married into top politburo, a daughter, he was family connected to the top. And so he was really on his way up in the Soviet Union as well. So to ensnare him would have been a great goal for MI5. However, as we'll learn later, MI5 was actually being run by the KGB anyway. So this is a very dirty double-dealing scene. John Perfume and his wife Valerie later in life, he actually spent the rest of his life working in a charity in the East End of London, and was given a command of the British Empire for his very worthy sacrificial work later, but this affair had ended, in fact, before 1962, it had ended December 1961. KGB active measures timed the publication of the scandal. for more than 18 months after it ended. How do you get the media to hold on a scandal of this magnitude for 18 months just before the general elections? And it was a short affair of a few weeks but At a certain point, when John Profirma pulled away from this and realized this is dangerous, this is bad, he can't have anything more to do with her, and he realized that he had been entrapped, and it looked like everything had gone, and then suddenly, just before the elections, all of this is released, and he is forced to resign over this scandal. with the Conservative government disgraced and in fact the news reports say never in the history of the world had there been such a furor in the media over any scandal. This is the biggest scandal in history of news reporting up to that date. And it definitely brought down the Conservative government of Harold Macmillan, who was shattered. This was a watershed event in sociological history too, because they said it marked a turning point from dealing with government leaders with respect, to the first time they started being deliberately, not just disrespectful, but really gutter tactics to pull down the government. And the media was on a hounding case to bring down John Perfuma. Secretary of War, tipped to be the next Prime Minister? You can imagine. So the way was now made clear for Hugh Todd Gaitskell, the man of right, the leader of the Labour Party, to become the next Prime Minister of Great Britain, because there's no way the Conservative Party is going to get elected in the next election. They've been so humiliated and disgraced and made out to be hypocrites, really immoral and all the rest of it through this high-profile scandal which was really fuelled and they just had so many stories coming out and Christine Keeler was given £23,000 by one newspaper for a story. And more by others. And then, you know, she sold film rights. I mean, she became wealthy. And this friend of hers, Mandy Rice Davies, she got so much money, she went and opened up enormous amounts of brothels in Israel. And she made a mint out of this. So, now, it was extraordinary. They kept this going for so long, this scandal. But Active Measures, we now know, were the ones running the whole show. Hugh Todd Gaitskell, he's going to be the next Prime Minister of Britain because he's at the Labour Party and they are the next party they... it's just no doubt they'll be in. But he's only a useful idiot, he's just a liberal. And so what happens is there's a strange and abrupt death of Gaitskell at age 56. This leaves an opening for Harold Wilson to come out of nowhere, he exploits and sees control of the Labour Party just in time to become Prime Minister of Great Britain. Peter writes a 1987 book, Spycatcher, and Soviet defector Andrei Galitsin, who is described as the most senior KGB defector ever to come over to the West. Both of them say that Gateskill was assassinated by the KGB in order to place the agent of influence, Harold Wilson, codenamed Oldman, into the key position of Prime Minister of Great Britain. In fact, while a lot of the folder's contents have been shredded and incinerated, indeed we have found today the Oldman file of Harold Wilson is in the archives in the KGB which has been made known. He was a registered agent of the KGB. Fact. And Spycatcher, Peter Wright, who was former assistant director of MI5, he was tasked to catch the spies. And he knew that not only was, I mean there's a lot more horror stories that came out of Spycatcher, so much so that the book's banned in Britain. But Harold Wilson was one of the people he identified as a KGB agent. Now Adlai Galitsyn was top KGB agent, senior in Helsinki Embassy. We walked over and he gave massive amounts of information, including laying out the Soviet plan of massive deception operation. He, years before it happened, laid out perestroika, glasnost, the whole program. There was going to be, of course it got out of control, but it was all planned. to get more investments and to advance further. And spy catcher Peter Wright, he's not the only one who's in fact even before his book came out I knew about Harold Wilson being a KGB agent and I'd learned that already from South African military intelligence even before this came into the public realm. But this is an intriguing thing still banned in Great Britain today and notice it's the communist Hammond-Sickle, with a key that's made up of Great Britain and the United States. The key. The KGB is turning the key, because it's controlling the people in both British and in American intelligence. In fact, the head of the CIA at the time, Ann Andelson, he said, Antoine Galitzin is the most valuable defector to ever come out of the Soviet Union. And yet today there are people who try to discount what both Peter Wright has said and what Antler Ike Litson revealed. In fact he was put on trial, Peter Wright, he had to flee to Australia and seek sanctuary in Australia because he can't go back to his native Britain because he revealed these secrets. And Peter Wright's memoirs are absolutely extraordinary. Wilson, Harold Wilson, oversaw the disastrous betrayal of Rhodesia, had been one of the most faithful allies of Great Britain, had provided more men per cent of its population in uniform in the First and Second World War, and yet when Rhodesia was fighting communist terrorism, the British betrayed Rhodesia and gave all aid to the enemy and right down to the fact, do you know, it's revealed and we've got books here such as Senior November and even revealed by Ian Smith in The Great Betrayal, that the head of Rhodesian Intelligence, that's Ken Flower, Ken Flower was in charge of the Rhodesian CAO, the Central Intelligence Organization. He was working for British MI6 and that's why we never managed to assassinate either Nkomo or Mugabe because every time the Rhodesian SIS or CIO went in to take them out, as was planned for example in the Lusaka raid on Nkomo's house, they were informed ahead of time by MR6 because the head of Rhodesian CIO had his primary allegiance to Great Britain and the British MR6 was passing on the information to the Communists which is the key reason why we lost the war ultimately. Well we didn't lose the war but we lost, we never lost the battle but our country was betrayed. Not only that but to think that Ian Smith said to me that he only realised once Ken Flowers autobiography came out that his number one spy chief was actually working for the enemy. He said but of course I never wanted to believe that Britain was our enemy right up to the end. He said, I always thought that, you know, I'd fought for Britain, I'd been in the Royal Air Force for six years, he'd been involved, fought in North Africa, shot down twice. The other Smith half his face was plastic surgery, he had a glass eye. He was, he was a, you know, he'd really sacrificed for Britain. He said, I never believed Britain would betray us. And at the key time, I even learnt from General Walls, who's Rhodesia's Commander of Combined Operations. He told me at the Rhodesian centenary celebrations in 1990, where a thousand of us came together for the... He said to me, we had all the plans in place that if ZANU won, if Mugabe won, we would have a coup, wipe out the whole of ZANU. We had everything ready, the paratroopers, the SAS, the lot, everyone was ready. and then he got a personal visit by the Queen Mother when he was in London to plead with him not to initiate this plan and out of his loyalty to Britain General Walls held back and to this day there's a lot, like the whole Religion Special Air Service, will not invite him to any of their events today. They believe General Walls betrayed them because he never gave the order for the coup which was meant to happen the moment they realised that Mugabe had won, which would have been through treachery because, no, they weren't adhering to the Lankestars Peace Agreement. But General Walls admitted he had been deceived. They played on his loyalty to the Royal Family. And Ian Smith even had this deep loyalty. He didn't believe that the British themselves were betraying them. Lancaster promised all sorts of things. Lord Soames was a grandson of Winston Churchill. Lord Soames was the British governor of Rhodesia at the time, of the handover. I think he was Winston Churchill's grandson. He lied. morning and night to Walls and to Ian Smith and what they had to say later. They realised later they were betrayed by their own people. So Ian Smith said to me, late in his life, that he was distressed to realise that we'd fought on the wrong side. He's talking about the Second World War. We should have fought against the Russians, not allied with them. He didn't realise at the time. But Harold Wilson was the key political figure that betrayed Rhodesia. Now, he was willing to give independence to a Marxist like Kenneth Kahunda in Northern Rhodesia, who immediately imposed a one-party dictatorship. But he wouldn't give independence or recognise independence to Rhodesia, who had always been effectively independent. Rhodesia is the only part of the British Empire that had never taken one cent, one penny, of British money. Rhodesia was self-funded, self-governed, self-supporting from the beginning. It had never needed a British soldier before, Lord Soames came in 1979 for the transition. There'd be no British soldiers sent to Rhodesia. Rhodesia provided its own. British Salafi police, funded by Cecil John Rhodes. It was a totally self-funded operation from the beginning. Rhodesia never took British money. And so Rhodesia was the most self-governing, self-supporting part of the British Empire. Why would they not get independence? You can give it to Marxist murderer who's going to be a one-party dictator in a few moments, and they could even give independence to a cannibal like Kenyatta in Kenya. But they couldn't give independence to Rhodesia. And this was, this was Harold Wilson. Harold Wilson was the one betraying these countries and refusing the same opportunity for independence to Rhodesia, who had always proven its loyalty to the British Empire throughout its existence. So here's a key person. He's also the one who sent the British paratroopers into Northern Ireland, which one of my friends, Rob Brown, was part of. He was in the Royal Paratroopers, two paratroopers who fired the shots on Bloody Sunday. What are you doing sending paratroopers into a place like Londonderry? Paratroopers are not trained in crowd control. They weren't issued with tear gas shields, gas masks or anything else like that. FN rifles. That was it. And so when they came under fire they fired back, which is what they were trained to do. And Rob says we saw the Roman Catholic priests and we saw the Catholics marching up towards us and as they got close to us they pointed down the middle and there on the ground were these IRA gunmen. They fired straight down the middle into us and then the whole crowd closed up again. They were working together. They said Our commander gave the order to open fire, and we fired back. We were just fired on, so we fired back, and that was what was called Bloody Sunday. That was what the Communists wanted. They wanted the British troops to fire on civilians. That created an incident. This was all cooked by the KGB. And the man who made it possible was Harold Wilson. He's the one who chose to send the Royal paratroopers into London during Belfast. Why would you do that? That's a sure way of escalating war, and that's when the whole troubles, as they called it in Northern Ireland, went out of control. And he never let the SAS assassinate the IRA leaders. The SAS several times have documented in their own history, they at times had the whole IRA group in sight. Give us permission to go ahead, went all the way to number 10, and Harold Wilson went back, no. and had to let them all go. And more and more people getting kneecapped, more and more bombs, more and more assassinations. Harold Wilson messed up the British Empire more than anybody since Winston Churchill. Nobody since 2nd World War made such a mess as this character. He was the absolute disaster of disasters. And so, Ian Smith was having to negotiate with a man who was actually a KGB agent of influence, Harold Wilson. Harold Wilson has been named, identified by Anthony Gillitson as a KGB agent of influence, documented in spy capture as well by Peter Wright, identified time and again by other defectors, and yet he somehow ended up as a peer. And because he had been a British Prime Minister, it was considered too much of a disgrace to expose it, and that's why Peter Wright was not allowed to publish it in his book, but he did anyway. And Peter Wright says, everybody knew he was a KGB agent, but because he had been a Prime Minister, the idea was to cover up the scandal. And so instead of dealing with a criminal, this man should have been beheaded on Tower Green at the Tower of London, considering they beheaded people a lot less than the treachery this man did. And by the way, within a short while of him coming to power, vast amounts of British agents all over the world were assassinated. And there's just so much betrayal. At any rate, there's more to it than that. There were five Soviet spies working for the CIA, all imprisoned in the Soviet Union and all of them were executed immediately. These were Soviet spies who were actually working for the Americans. They were betrayed as Harold Wilson came in. Now the Cambridge Five, you might have heard of the Cambridge Five. These are just some of a spate of communist agents loyal to the KGB, who'd infiltrate British intelligence during the Second World War and throughout much of the Cold War. The Cambridge spy's famous one Anthony Blanche is the Queen's own advisor on a whole lot of things. There's Donald MacLean, there's Guy Burgess, a raging homosexual, and Kim Philby, who lasted the longest of all. And by the way, Kim Philby was only caught at the end because of Alexander Solzhenitsyn, the one who exposed him. Donald Maclean, Guy Burgess, Anthony Blunt. He's the only one of the whole lot who's ever expressed regret for what he did. Michael Straits is another one of the students who was recruited at Cambridge by Anthony Blunt. Now the way the British work was, if you went to Cambridge and Oxford, you were on the inside. You were part of the establishment. You were trusted. Old school tie in all of that. So the idea that their spies could be recruited in their own universities was something that the British just hadn't seen. The infiltration of universities had been going on since the 1920s. The KGB had been targeting universities and theological seminaries since the 1920s. And John Cancross. But Kim Philby, interestingly enough, had been already identified by, continually identified from as early as 1946 by defectors going to America and he never was picked up until Antler Eglitsen. What was the reason? Well, here's Oleg Kalugin and Kim Philby working together, and by the way, Kim Philby continued to work for the KGB right up to I think he died just very recently. Very recently. Got the highest orders. He did a lot of active measures. He did a lot of trading of active measures. He planted a lot of false stories and a lot of disinformation. He was able to take official documents and then just insert one phrase, one sentence, so that it looked very real because it all was real. But by this one a very explosive, with a pin pulled out, sentinels placed in here and there. He could cause problems between allies, he could break up political parties, he could cause all sorts of problems. And so he continued to do that to the end. Well, another one of the real big explosives is Sir Roger Hollis. This is what Spycatcher exposed. This is M. From 1945 to 1968, the man who James Bond would have gotten his orders from, the man in charge of British intelligence, Sir Roger Hollis, he was the sixth man in the Cambridge spies and he was running counterintelligence. That is such a shock. That's another reason why spy capture by Peter Wright was banned in Britain. Because the British knew he was... Already in the 60s they were starting to realize, all of our people are being betrayed, everything we're doing is failing, nothing British intelligence is involved in is working, unlike in the movies. There's a mole. They knew there was a mole, but what they didn't realize is the top man was the mole. I mean, the man running the whole thing, the guy with the Cheshire Cat smile. And so he caused incalculable damage to British and American intelligence during a key time in the Cold War, which is one reason why we didn't seem to win anything for all those years. I mean, it was just, the Allies were losing, losing, losing, retreating, retreating, being betrayed, and betraying all the way through. Well, Sir Roger Hollis was a key person, but because he was a Sir, he had already been knighted by the Queen. they decided to just let him retire. They knew he was, I mean, a previous regime would have hauled him to the tower and had his head lopped off pretty quickly, but in Britain they just let him go into retirement, pay his pension because they thought the damage of another spy scandal in Britain would be too damaging to public morale. It was better to pretend it hadn't happened. So in Peter Wright, the key spy catcher who was working under Sir Roger Hollis so he knew from the inside because his job was to try and find where the infiltrators were, counterintelligence. So these are the Cambridge men. They keep speaking about the Cambridge Five but there really was a Cambridge Six. And Yuri Modin, when he wrote this book, he didn't speak about Sir Roger Hollis because Sir Roger Hollis was still in play. And so he couldn't give up. The others were all known. And by the way, it was extraordinary how McLean, for example, he was captured, he was imprisoned, and he escaped from high-security prison Britain. He went back to Russia and got really top-treated. Philby was tipped off the head of town by Sir Roger Hollister. He got back before they finally came for him. So he escaped as well. In fact, most of these people did get away, blunts about anyone who faced the music. Uri Modin, the controller of British military intelligence. It is unlikely that any other intelligence agency or movement in history has been responsible for so many arrests, so many tortures, so many imprisonments, so many murders, so many massacres. Just think of the Catan Forest Massacre for example. Assassinations. Hugh Gaitskell for example, launching of foreign wars, sponsoring and training of foreign terrorist movements, just about all of them actually, toppling of governments, funding of so many revolutionary movements worldwide, so the KGB could just be the most destructive force in modern history. The Black Book of Communism catalogues over 100 million deaths between 1917 and 1991 alone, caused by communist governments, most of them controlled by the Soviet Union or its agents, and that is according to their own documentation. I'm sure there's a lot that wasn't documented. For example, if you take Death by Government, if you take the book by Professor Rummel, he puts the death toll as easily into 180 million, if you include Red China. And if you take Alexander Solzhenitsyn, he puts it way over the 120 million mark in the Soviet Union and its allies. And so, conservative estimate though, just taking the... these are ex-communists. Stephane Cotter and all the others who wrote the black book Communism, they're ex-communists. He was the editor of the Communisme magazine, France. The facts converted him. But you're talking about at least 100 million dead. At least. So the greatest killer in history has certainly been communism. And if you were to add the casualties of the wars of liberation and a revolution sponsored worldwide by the Soviet Union and carried out by its KGB, the body count could double. While they promised them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption. However, Stalin, like all people, came to an end and his statues got pulled down and his great idols were attacked in the streets and his writings and those of Lenin were burned and the people of Eastern Europe gathered in prayer meetings starting with a Leipzig prayer meeting which spread until a Berlin Wall came down and the Iron Curtain collapsed and East and West Germany were reunited and thousands of idols of Lenin were rooted up, dismantled, taken to the trash heap while people danced in the streets with joy and shot of fireworks in celebration for the death of communism. Joseph Stalin's statue was even dismantled in his hometown of Gordie. And one of the great victories is seen in how the Church of Christ the Saviour in Moscow, which was built to commemorate the victory over Napoleon's revolutionary force in 1812, which was dynamited by order of Joseph Stalin in 1931, to prepare the way for a great palace of the Soviets. They dismantled this colossal church, the third largest church in the world at that time. And that was to make way for this huge idol of Lenin built in the entire Babel style. But it never was finished. In 1991 they began work on rebuilding, on those very same foundations, the Church of Christ the Saviour, which in nine years was completed. And one of the first things they did was to bring the remains of the Russian royal family who'd been murdered by the Soviets at Yekaterinburg, 1918, and they buried them with much honour and canonised them as saints of the Russian Orthodox Church. And this Cathedral of Christ's Saviour stands where the Palace of Soviets was meant to stand. So this is just another example of the victory of faith and the failure of atheism. in Daniel chapter 2 we read but there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets this great image whose splendor was excellent stood as stone was cut out without hands which struck the image on its feet of iron and clay and broke them in pieces and the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and it filled the whole earth and the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which will never be destroyed and the kingdom shall not be left to another people but it shall break in pieces and it shall consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever. And the Lord Jesus declared, the stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone. Whoever falls on that stone will be broken, but on whomever it falls it will grind him to powder. In Moscow, about 900 meters northeast of Red Square, in Lubyanka Square, a huge statue of Felix Dzerzhinsky, the founder of the Cheka, which became the KGB, was erected in 1958. And that, the Lubyanka was a word of terror. If you heard something like, they've gone to the Lubyanka, he's been taken to the Lubyanka, you've got to report to the Lubyanka. I mean, it just would send terror through anyone. Many, many Christians were tortured to death in the Lubyanka. This statue directly in front of the notorious headquarters of the KGB is no longer there. In 1991 the statue of Dzerzhinsky was toppled, removed. The people in absolute fury climbed up and dismantled the statue, brought down this hated statue of Dzerzhinsky and attacked it. I mean the hostility of Dzerzhinsky's statues all over Russia were brought down. And today they're in the rubbish heap. And if you go to the Lubyanka, 900 meters away from Red Square, No statue. Statue is gone. But what is really great is in the same square, Lubyanka Square, they've now got a stone. A simple stone that comes from Solovetsky Monastery from the Solovetsky Island, which had been the first prototype concentration camp of the Soviet Union. And that has been placed in this square, a stone. in memory of the people, the Christians who died at the hands of the KGB, the symbolism of the victory of Christ over communism is very striking. Jesus said, whoever falls on that stone will be broken, but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder. And all over the world, idols of Lenin have been toppled. This in Addis Ababa, in Ethiopia. So we've got a lot of great examples like this. And we've got some good tracts over here as well to use for evangelizing communists. We're placing a lot of these on the ReformationSA.org website. We'll be placing more on the ReformationFab and Facebook page. You'll see we've got not only on the Persecuted Church, IDOP Africa. The Black Book of Communism book documents this. In the Face of Evil is probably the best single DVD on the Cold War. on how the Soviets were defeating the Cold War, some of the tracks we've produced that are on the table, Distributed Communists, the world's greatest revolutionary, we've given those out at ANC rallies as early as this year, The Heart of Communism, Communist Liberation, Myth and Reality, Glamorizing a Mass Murderer, the only people who are foolish enough to wear a Che Guevara outfit, New Gospel, Different Church, Strange God, on Liberation Theology, so these are also available on the website. Any questions or comments? You know, somewhere in the Baltic states, they say, there was a seminary, a religious seminary, which was training priests to go into the churches of the world and to promote revolution through the churches. And I mean, evidence just shows. I mean, like in Nicaragua, for instance, and in South America. I mean, Bishop Tutu and these people, they would go to these places to learn from them. And I mean, we know full well that he and his fellow clergymen sort of went close friends of Nelson Mandela and calling him their leader and so on. I've got no doubt that Barack Obama is another active measure as example. He's got, in fact we've got the video here from James Kennedy's ministry, Obama's White House, where they point out personnel is policy and all the Marxists he's filled all the key positions in America with. Personnel is policy. And, for example, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, he stacked the State Department and the CIA with communists. The man that he put in charge of starting the CIA was a hardcore communist. So, right from the beginning, you can see where these people stand by what they've done. Harold Wilson, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Nelson Mandela, Barack Obama, these people are active measures, agents of influence. But what about Angela Merkel? Well, now, there's another interesting one. I've seen a picture of Angela Merkel in her Communist Party youth uniform. And, you know, imagine, imagine if you found a picture of, assuming she's old enough, in a Hitler youth uniform. Would that not be on the front page all over the place? But the Communist Party youth? Nah. not relevant. Those people are really indoctrinated. So it's very disturbing when the leader of one of the greatest nations in Europe, the greatest economic power in Europe, that they have someone who was a Communist Party leader. And in our country we've got, well, what's his title in Berkey? He was a lapsed Communist. That's it. He had led his Communist Party membership lapsed. Come on. It's no such thing as an ex-Communist unless you're an anti-Communist. Ex-Communists are all anti-Communists. The person who let his membership lapse is someone who's just using a, it's a tactical move. Just as all of Mandela's friends said that, and his family, yes he is always a member of the Communist Party, but for tactical reasons he had to say he wasn't. And so he perched himself for 50 years of his life. lying in court and lying in his book and lying that he wasn't a communist. I mean, we all could, anyone who knew anything about communism or paid attention to Mandela knew, but it was a revelation for some people in 2013 when it came out that actually he was always a senior member of the Communist Party. So I suppose standing hand in hand with KGB Colonel Joe Slover with your fist in the air in front of a huge banner, with a hammer and sickle behind isn't enough to convince everyone. But how many people in our society know what the communists have done, and what they stand for, and what their agenda is, and what the KGB have done? And unfortunately, how many care? We've got an ignorant population. Our people are major and minor, and they're completely distracted by trivial things, while the big story is being missed. Communism is, along with Islam, one of the greatest threats to civilization and freedom the world has ever known. They have caused immeasurable damage in the 20th century. And to think the damage done just to Africa, just to Rhodesia and South Africa alone. I mean, but we're talking about the whole world that's been devastated. The world in 1914 was a paradise compared to now. Babies were not being aborted, widows were not being burned, Slavery was not being practiced all over the world. But today, we have more people enslaved, 27 million they say, according to anti-slavery studies, than were at the time when William Wilberforce was campaigning against the slave trade. How is it that we've gone backwards? Well, this is how. 1914 led to 1917, led to active measures, which has led to the world that we know at the moment, which explains why we're in the mess we are. Anyway, you've been building blocks at the Reformation Society over the years, so this kind of just fits in one more jigsaw puzzle piece. Putin, he was KGB. Can one trust him now? I mean, he seems to have sort of... Well, I would have said no for many years, but... Well, I don't believe that you should trust any politician really when you get down to it, because you don't know where they're going to go. But... When it comes to politicians, I'm not interested in what they say, I'm more interested in what they do. And Russia today is moving more and more in a free enterprise direction. In Russia today, you certainly have more religious freedom than you have in America at this moment, interestingly enough. And I learnt that in December at the global interaction of the 100 different military groups that came together. 600 representatives from 100 countries, and everyone agreed The 100 countries represented, the country with the least amount of religious freedom is America. Now, of course, the 100 countries at this global interaction did not include South, North Korea or Saudi Arabia or Pakistan, obviously. But of the 100 countries represented, the Americans had the least amount of freedom. I sat at the same dinner table with the Americans, the Ukrainians and the Russians. And the Russians and the Ukrainians were commiserating with their poor American brother for their lack of freedom they had in America. And it's a fact. while Russian chaplains have full freedom to evangelize, the American chaplains are being bullied. They're being pushed to do homosexual marriage and homosexual counseling. That's pathetic. Absolutely outrageous. So in America today, you look at what they're doing now to try and bully people to do the homosexual agenda, whereas in Russia they've passed laws to protect people against homosexual gender. In America they're pushing abortion, whereas in Russia they're moving against abortion. In Russia, they've even passed laws against pornography on the internet and illegal distribution of pornography. Promising signs. I mean, I'm sure Russia's got huge amounts of problems. But at this moment, they seem to be going in the right direction, whereas America's going in exactly the wrong direction. So, I think they've passed one another right now. I think right now, America's more the evil empire. in its promotion of evil worldwide through not only Hollywood, but the State Department on Homosexual Gender. And Russia's beginning to look more like a leader of freedom in the world, which seems very strange to me because I've spent most of my life seeing the Russians as our biggest enemies. But let's face it, Russia is no longer a communist country. Yes, they've got an ex-KGB officer at their head, but bear in mind the KGB are some of the best and brightest of those who survived. He testifies, you can Google Putin's testimony and he gives a fairly credible testimony of the conversion and he speaks about his mother being a believer and having him secretly baptized as an infant in the orthodox manner and pulls up the cross that he always wears around his neck which his mother gave him and he goes to the church where his mother baptized him every New Year's Eve and the way he speaks and testifies, he's put chapels back in the military, he's getting Bibles printed, they're paying a hundred million dollars a year to the churches to rebuild churches as compensation for the churches destroyed by the Soviet Union in the past. They're doing something. There were 200 churches left in Russia by 1941 out of 50,000 before 1970. 200 churches left, less. Today there's 30,000 churches in Russia. Hundreds of them being built with government money. And then that picture in his cabinet room, that picture of Christ. We've got it right here on this Christian Action magazine, if you haven't seen it, which has got the failure of atheism, triumph of faith in Russia. In his cabinet office there's one picture on the wall, it's not Lenin, It's the icon of Christ. I don't go for icons of Christ, but in orthodox tradition, that's the symbol of faith. For an ex-KGB officer in what used to be the Kremlin, which was the headquarters of the Communists and the Atheists in the world, to think there's a picture of Christ on the wall. That's the only picture on the wall. Center. There's a lot of interesting things going on. I've had friends who've worked in Russia who've said there's a lot of religious freedom. They didn't have problems handing out gospel literature and preaching in open air. But they'd get shut down if they tried that in many places in America. You can speak to Paul Young. Paul Young says he's got more religious freedom here in South Africa than he gets in America. He can go to all of our schools. He can do open air ministry. He can go into our prisons. He said, I can't do that in America. So Paul Young tells us that he's got more freedom in South Africa. I didn't think that we were doing that good. But compared to America, actually, we've got more freedoms right now here. You think of the fact that our bed and breakfast people got the harassment case from homosexuals thrown out at courts in Walsley. The church basically said, don't waste my time. Whereas in America, they're getting hounded. In Britain, they're getting prosecuted. So South Africa, with all of our problems, it begins to look like we might have less problems than our friends and cousins across the sea. There are some good provisions in our Bill of Rights, and we should demand that they be respected. freedom of speech, freedom of thought, freedom of religion, freedom of association, all of those are there. If we don't speak up, they'll get steamrolled over. But we do have the right to make a stand, and there have been some good cases where our side has won in the courts. So, we should continue to use those freedoms. So, as we spoke about the KGB last week, now we've slotted in with what the KGB were, So I hope this puts a bit more perspective on what we mean when we call the pink imposition and the KGB such a conjure-up. Yes, that's what it is. The KGB was the most intolerant force of terror that the world has ever known. And we need to make the imposition of the Catholics look mild in comparison. And it looks to me like the gay movement in our countries is trying to gear up to be the same force of persecution. So, good evangelistic materials here. Flipboard if you want to sign up. These Bushido tracts. Any other items? Let's pray. Let's bring some of these matters before the Lord. Lord God, we thank you for the vision of Daniel. We thank you, Lord God, that you are the cornerstone, that all those who fall on you will be cut to pieces, and those on whom you fall will be crushed to dust. We thank you, Lord, for the assurance we have that your kingdom will grow to be a mountain that will fill the whole earth. We look forward, Lord God, to that day. We thank you, Lord God, that your word assures us that the earth will be as full of the knowledge of the Lord as the seas are full of water. And we pray, Lord God, that you would strengthen your church, that you'd revive your church, that there'd be a revival of repentance and of holiness and of fervor and enthusiasm for spreading your word worldwide. We look forward, Lord, to the day when all these idols can be toppled and all these lies can be exposed and when your word and your truth can be proclaimed freely and be received enthusiastically and wholeheartedly. We pray, Lord God, that you'd strengthen your remnant and that you'd make us brave and bold for you. We pray, Lord God, for Zizi on Eustie campus to stand fast as she's in a firing line at the moment. We pray, Lord, for all those who know her to be good, solid friends, intercessors, support. And Lord, for all of us to use our voice to provide more support and to raise up the sound majority to make a stand and to stop being doormats for these bullies and these impositions to just steamroll over. Help us, Lord God, to resist the force of Antichrist in our days. We thank you, Lord, for the reminder that in the heartland of the Soviet Union, communism has suffered a great defeat, a humiliating defeat. Many of its idols have been toppled, and even that statue of Dzerzhinsky is down in the rubbish heap and the stone is symbolically in that square where once a statue had stood and so Lord God we pray that you would encourage your people throughout Russia, Eastern Europe, throughout the world to stand fast, to stand firm, to not compromise, to be bold and brave so that we may have the joy of seeing you turn the tide. So Lord God we pray help us to respond like Shedrach, Meshach and Abednego who could say to Nebuchadnezzar our God whom we serve is able to save us and he will. But even if he does not we still will not bow before your idols nor will we serve your gods. Lord give us some of the spirit of Daniel and his friends that we may stand fast and not bow or bend or compromise the essential principles of our faith. May we not give in to the spirit of this world We pray, Lord God, that you grant us good opportunities to witness for you and to make a stand for you even this next week. We pray in Jesus' precious name. Amen.
