(fwd) <snip> > >We Can Save Our Nation! > >By John F. McManus, Publisher >The New American Magazine, July 1997 > >When Robert Welch founded the John Birch Society on December 9, 1958, he >summed up to a small group of friends and associates just what needed to be >done: "All we must find and build and use, to win, is sufficient >understanding. Let's create that understanding and build that resistance, >with everything mortal men can put into the effort --- while there still is >time." > >Mr. Welch realized that no conspiracy can withstand exposure, and he >continued to his dying day to encourage good Americans to diligently light >the way for their friends, neighbors, and loved ones with the truth - and, >above all, not to give up. > >It is certainly not difficult to find Americans who have given up. Their >conclusion is that the enemy is too powerful, too strategically placed, too >well-heeled, or too close to its ultimate objective of world domination. They >have lost hope and allowed discouragement to take control. Often that lost >hope is a consequence of bad information - such as the myth that the country >is already occupied by countless thousands of UN/Soviet troops, our freedoms >have already been lost, etc. > >What these discouraged patriots overlook, of course, is that we still possess >freedom of assembly, freedom of speech, and freedom of the press - including >the freedom to publish a magazine [for patriots]. We are still able to sound >the alarm with our voices, our pens, our resources, and our influence. We can >still effect change in government through the simple process of informing our >fellow citizens. > >In short, we can still use our freedoms to save our freedoms. If it were too >late, such freedoms would no longer be permitted and the conspirators for >global control would no longer have to pretend. > >As we continue to reach out to fellow Americans to create needed >understanding and build effective resistance to conspiratorial designs, we >must realize that there are many reasons for hope that our efforts will bear >good fruit. Here are five: > >(1) History is made by the dedicated few. > >Small groups of activists will always succeed against disorganized and >apathetic majorities. No one knows this better than the conspirators >themselves. It won't take millions to stop them, but it will take more than >are involved today. If everyone who is aware helps another to understand; if >the newly informed also awaken others; and if many of them come together in >an effective action program to expose the Conspiracy, the tide of battle will >be turned. > >(2) There are more than enough good people in our nation to accomplish this >goal. > >The struggle which consumes our attention is, at its core, a contest between >good and evil, light and darkness, truth and falsehood. Robert Welch, who >always chose his words very carefully, often referred to our adversary as a >"satanic and diabolic conspiracy." We agree. Locating enough good people and >energizing them with this fundamental assessment will lead to victory. > >(3) No one wants to be a slave. > >It is fairly easy to demonstrate that a continuation of present U.S. policies >will, in the not-too-distant future, lead all but the conspirators themselves >into political and economic slavery. We are promoting freedom and >responsibility; they are promoting abject slavery. Clearly, we have a >distinct edge in the battle for the minds of men - if we use it. > >(4) We have truth on our side! > >Conspirators must always work in the shadows and hide their goals in a >blizzard of lies, deceit, and confusion. But it only takes a pound of truth >to overcome a ton of falsehood. Our mission of bringing truth to light is >much easier than constantly spreading the lies needed to deceive men into >choosing their own slavery. > >(5) Hope for victory exists because the enemy is a [clandestine] conspiracy. > > >We are NOT being victimized by the unfolding of unchangeable historical >forces. That's Marxist determinism. If some can make history for evil >purposes, others can make history for good and decent ends. Instead of >wringing our hands and lamenting that nothing can be done, we can shape >history -- our way -- by demanding that principles guide this nation's >actions and by exposing and routing the most foul and determined conspiracy >mankind has ever experienced. > >If we hope to succeed and to receive God's blessing for our efforts, >everything we do must be based on morality. As Robert Welch noted in 1964: > >"We must oppose secrecy with openhandedness. We must publish to the world our >beliefs, our purposes, and our methods as fully as the collectivists conceal >and disguise their own. We must oppose conspiracy, not with counter >conspiracy, but with exposure, justice, and education. We must oppose >falsehoods with truth; blasphemy with reverence; foul means with good means; >immorality and amorality with more spiritual faith and dedication; >rootlessness and chaos with tradition and stability; relativity with >absolutes; pragmatism with deeper purposes; hedonism with a more responsible >pursuit of happiness; cruelty with compassion; and hatred with love." ======================================================================== Paul Andrew Mitchell : Counselor at Law, federal witness B.A., Political Science, UCLA; M.S., Public Administration, U.C.
