(1966) Shocking Statement from Ezra Taft Benson, former Secretary of Agriculture





Ezra Taft Benson, former Secretary of Agriculture in the Eisenhower Administration.


Ezra Taft Benson met with USSR's Nikkita Khrushchev in 1959 and relates this present day warning:


"As we talked face-to-face, he indicated that my grandchildren would live under Communism. After assuring him that I expected to do all in my power to assure that his, and all other grandchildren, would live under freedom, he arrogantly declared, in substance:

'You Americans are so gullible. No, you won't accept communism outright, but we'll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you'll finally wake up and find you already have communism. We won't have to fight you. We’ll so weaken your economy until you’ll fall like overripe fruit into our hands.' "​

He is correct... little doses with sugary coatings and humanitarian terminology is just the ticket. The left pushes, the conservatives lock in the gains. Once with in reach, the terror element is needed to get it the rest of the way - the police state. War and terror become the closing mechanism in the vice.

The Republicons use Al- CIA-da, and the DCrats use climate Armageddon (both are stepped pretexts in the growing coercion).

You can vote yourself into complete slavery, just not out of it.

If you have ever seen the following movie, than you only need to know that we are all on the bus and both parties threaten that if we slow down too much or think to stop and get off, it blows. As long as 'they' have 'us' all believing that bus will blow, then they can get us to do pretty much anything they want - including giving up every human liberty.

In the movie there was a bomb, in real life there isn't one. Hobbs would be proud of his 'little mistake' becoming the foundational argument justifying modern tyranny.

If only Americans who lived in that era had realized that the true communists trying to take us over are here, not far away in the USSR.

The Controllers Principles

1. Tactics will change, but all will involve force.

2. Incrementalization will be used.

3. Propaganda must start early and must be pervasive, from education, media to entertainment.

4. Choices in all areas of life must be limited.

5. Central controllers can never have enough control over others.

6. Fear is their best tool.

7. War works; it is the health of the state.

Ya I've heard him say a lot of great things.....

..........but.................

I recently heard from someone who used to live in Utah that Benson wanted to ban alcohol there. I tried looking it up to verify on the internet to no avail. Anybody know about this?

Fox News host Glenn Beck aired an extraordinary program June 24 explaining how the facts released from the files of the FBI and the World War II-era Office of Strategic Services over the past two decades have vindicated the controversial charges of communism in the U.S. State Department by Senator Joseph McCarthy.

The Wisconsin Republican's name has been transformed into an epithet, “McCarthyism,” by much of the political Left that is intended to mean smearing political opponents with unfounded charges. While the Left and much of the Right accepted as gospel that McCarthy's charges were false, many conservatives (including the late William F. Buckley) have defended McCarthy as essentially correct on the facts and the specific cases he mentioned publicly. But in an interview with author M. Stanton Evans, Beck gave a fair summary of Soviet penetration of U.S. government after the Second World War that has only become known since the mid-1990s with the release of the Venona Papers, FBI files, and other primary source documents.

Beck asked: “The question is, was Joseph McCarthy right? Was he right?” And the inescapable conclusion he came to after reading Evans' Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy was that McCarthy had told the truth. (The book was reviewed by The New American here.) “I don't want to believe this,” Beck told Evans of his reaction when Evans' book was first published in 2007. “I put it down and I went 'I'm not ready to hear that. I can't handle that.'" But Beck later finished the book anyway and asked the audience, "Okay. Please, America, read this book.”

M. Stanton Evans told Beck of his research on McCarthy that “I found a lot of stuff missing, a lot of stuff had been censored, a lot of stuff that was in the records in one place but blacked out in another place. Mostly what I found was that the FBI files, which backed up what McCarthy was saying, had been withheld for 50 years. And we now have them, or many of them, and they show essentially that he was right in general. There was a massive penetration of the government, and that it was covered up, and that he threatened that cover-up. And that's why he was isolated, demonized, and destroyed. That's the technique.”

Beck pointed out that the “Red Scare” of the 1950s had more to do with ensuring employees of the U.S. government were loyal to their employer and not to a rival nation rather than a mere battle against a particular political or philosophical opinion. “If you were a Marxist then, you were a Soviet sympathizer. You were a traitor to our country," Beck noted of the Stalinist era. "You've got to put that into perspective.” Nevertheless, leftists are apoplectic about the content of Beck's program, while conservative organizations like The John Birch Society have trumpeted this first salvo in the mainstream media to resurrect the legacy of America's most famous anti-communist Senator.
