'By the middle of the First World War, Britain had bankrupted itself and the flower of our young manhood had been churned into the Flanders mud.
'Millions had paid, both in blood and wealth, a savage price for a war that almost all would one day agree was a mistake.
'Lord Lansdowne, a veteran Tory and former Foreign Secretary, wrote to The Times newspaper to suggest it was time to make peace.
'The Times refused to publish the letter. He was pretty much driven from public life. He was falsely derided as an unpatriotic defeatist, when he was the opposite.'PETER HITCHENS: A long war in Ukraine will bring nothing but death, poverty and ruin. It's time for peace
In John Buchan's Thirty Nine Steps, the hero Richard Hannay is up against an international Cabal.
John Buchan's name was inscribed in the Jewish Golden Book for his activities on behalf of the Jewish community. 'There are favourable depictions of Jews in Buchan’s work; he also supported the Balfour Declaration and in 1933, less than three months after Hitler came to power, he was one of only 50 MPs who signed a motion deploring the treatment of Jews in Germany.'
John Buchan was in British army intelligence.
John Buchan - The Thirty-nine Steps.
According to Scudder:
The aim of the whole conspiracy was to get certain people at loggerheads.
In London, John Buchan's Thirty Nine Steps, Richard Hannay comes in contact with Franklin P Scudder.
The Man who Died. Buchan, John. 1915. The Thirty-nine ...
Scudder was an American, from Kentucky.
According to Scudder:
Away behind all the Governments and the armies there was a big subterranean movement going on, engineered by very dangerous people.
Most of the people in it were the sort of educated people that make revolutions, but beside them there were financiers who were playing for money.
A clever man can make big profits on a falling market.
According to Scudder:
The aim of the whole conspiracy was to get certain people at loggerheads.
Everything would be in the melting-pot, and they looked to see a new world emerge.
The capitalists would rake in the shekels, and make fortunes by buying up wreckage.
Capital, he said, had no conscience and no fatherland.
Besides, the Jew was behind it.
Glasgow - not much has changed.
According to Scudder:
The Jew is everywhere, but you have to go far down the backstairs to find him.
According to Scudder:
The Jew is everywhere, but you have to go far down the backstairs to find him.
Take any big business concern.
If you have dealings with it the first man you meet is Prince von und zu Something, an elegant young man who talks Eton-and-Harrow English.
But he cuts no ice.
If your business is big, you get behind him and find a prognathous Westphalian with a retreating brow and the manners of a hog.
But if you're on the biggest kind of job and are bound to get to the real boss, ten to one you are brought up against a little white-faced Jew in a bath-chair with an eye like a rattle-snake.
Yes, sir, he is the man who is ruling the world just now.
