Agenda of the Activists
By: Ryan Mauro

From my own studies, I know that during the Cold War, the USSR and countries allied to the USSR launched “special measures” activities aimed at the manipulation of scientific fact, activist groups, etc., as a way to influence American domestic and foreign policy. Of course, there are valid environmental concerns and these need to be handled. But there is another side to the story. Certain activist groups have been manipulated or down-right hijacked by radicals, likely with the help of foreign intelligence agencies or simply people believing in forms of Marxist-Leninism. There is no single agenda, but World Threats.com feels obliged to show some of the quotes by various activist groups and people.
Please consider some of these quotes before believing “facts” often pushed to “save the world”. Again, this is not a hit-piece aimed at environmentalists, but rather to demonstrate how radicals are coming to power in activist groups.

“This is a political game. It has nothing to do with science. It has nothing to do with health and safety.” Sherry Neddick of Greenpeace

“Complex technology of any sort is an assault on human dignity. It would be little short of disastrous for us to discover the source of clean, cheap, abundant energy because of what we might do with it.” Amory Lovins, Rocky Mountain Institute.

“As radical environmentalists, we can see AIDS not as a problem, but as a necessary solution.” Miss Ann Thropy (pseudonym), Earth First Journal

“…The only hope for the world is to make sure there is not another United States. We can’t let other countries have the same number of cars, the amount of industrialization, we have in the US.

And it is important to the rest of the world to make sure that they don’t suffer economically by virtue of our stopping them.” Michael Oppenheimer, Environmental Defense Fund
Free Enterprise really means rich people get richer. They have the freedom to exploit and psychologically rape their fellow human beings in the process . . . Capitalism is destroying the earth. -- Helen Caldicott, Union of Concerned Scientists
We have wished, we ecofreaks, for a disaster or for a social change to come and bomb us into Stone Age, where we might live like Indians in our valley, with our localism, our appropriate technology, our gardens, our homemade religion -- guilt-free at last! -- Stewart Brand (writing in the Whole Earth Catalogue
Human happiness, and certainly human fecundity, is not as important as a wild and healthy planets...Some of us can only hope for the right virus to come along. -- David Graber, biologist, National Park Service
We, in the green movement, aspire to a cultural model in which killing a forest will be considered more contemptible and more criminal than the sale of 6-year-old children to Asian brothels. -- Carl Amery
To feed a starving child is to exacerbate the world population problem -- Lamont Cole
The continued rapid cooling of the earth since WWII is in accord with the increase in global air pollution associated with industrialization, mechanization, urbanization and exploding population. -- Reid Bryson, "Global Ecology; Readings towards a rational strategy for Man", (1971)

"Monkey wrenching, (unlawful sabotage of industrial extraction/development equipment and infrastructure) is not mindless – targets are carefully picked for their strategic value." - Earth First
"No matter if the science is all phony, there are collateral environmental benefits…. climate change [provides] the greatest chance to bring about justice and equality in the world." - Christine Stewart, Canadian Environment Minister, Calgary Herald, December 14, 1998
"The answer to global warming is in the abolition of private property and production for human need. A socialist world would place an enormous priority an alternative energy sources. This is what ecologically-minded socialists have been exploring for quite some time now." - Louis Proyect, Columbia University
"They have cheated the case and I am angry about that, because that will come to our account. They use bad data, as well as for the Brent Spar as for the French nuclear tests. I am against nuclear tests, but one should use scientifically sound arguments…. No, Greenpeace has harmed the environmental case." - Paul Crutzen, Nobel Prize winner for his work on the ozone layer, cancelled his Greenpeace membership
“[the task is to] covertly lower the standard of living, the whole social structure, of America so that we can be merged with all other nations.” Rowan Gaither, president of the Ford Foundation, 1954.
“A psycho-politician must work hard to produce the maximum chaos in the fields of ‘mental healing’. You must work until every teacher of psychology unknowingly or knowingly teaches only Communist doctrine under the guide of ‘psychology’. You must labor until every doctor and psychiatrist is either a psycho-politician or an unwitting assistant to our aims. You must labor until we have domination of the minds and bodies of every important person in your nation (America). You must work until suicide arising from mental imbalance is common and calls forth no general investigation or remark…You must dominate as respected men the fields of psychiatry and psychology. You must dominate the hospitals and universities…With it you can erase our enemies as insects. You can change their (leaders) loyalties by psychopolitics…Use the courts, use the judges, use the Constitution of the country, use its medical societies and its laws to further our ends…By psycho-politics create chaos. Leave a nation leaderless. Kill our enemies. And bring to Earth, through Communism, the greatest peace man has ever known.”
Lavrenty Pavlovich Beria, head of the Lenin School of Psycho-Politics in 1933 addressing students at the university as described in “The Soviet Art of Brainwashing” by Kenneth Goff.
“Every child in America who enters school at the age of five is mentally ill, because he comes to school with an allegiance to our institutions, toward the preservation of this form of government that we have. Patriotism, nationalism, and sovereignty, all that proves that children are sick because a truly well individual is one who has rejected all of those things, and is truly the international child of the future.” Dr. Chester Pierce, Harvard University professor and Humanist activist
“Every child who believes in God is mentally ill.” Dr. Paul Brandwein, a leading child psychologist.
“We do not need any more preaching about right or wrong. The old ‘thou shall nots’ simply are not relevant…Values clarification is a method for teachers to change the values of children without getting caught.” Dr. Sidney Simon, lecturer and teacher
“What basic psychological distortion can be found in every civilization of which we know anything? The only psychological force capable of producing these perversions is morality—the concept of right and wrong. The re-interpretation and eventual eradication of the concept of right and wrong are the belated objectives of nearly all psychotherapy.” Dr. G. Brock Chisholm, the first head of the World Federation of Mental Health (which also pushes globalism and movements towards world unity)
“You must work until the officials of city, county and state governments will not think twice before they pounce upon Christian groups as public enemies…You must recruit every agency of the nation marked for slaughter, into a foaming hatred of Christianity. You must suborn district attorneys and judges into an intense belief, that Christian practices are vicious, bad, insanity causing, publicly hated, and intolerable.” From a Communist textbook of Psychopolitics written in 1933.
“The American Civil Liberties Union is closely affiliated with the communist movement in the United States. And fully ninety percent of its efforts are on behalf of the communists.” From a special HCLU investigation of the ACLU in 1931.

“Your grandchildren will live under communism…Oh you Americans! You’re so gullible! We’ll spoon-feed you socialism until you’re communists and don’t even know it. We’ll never have to fire a shot!” Nikita Khrushchev in the 1950s speaking to the US Secretary of Agriculture

Activists, radicals, peace campaigners, green party members: as far as the leaders of the GRU are concerned, these are like ripe water-melons, green on the outside, but red on the inside—and mouth-watering. So there is a good base for recruiting.” Viktor Survorov, Soviet GRU defector in his book, “Spetsnaz”
