The Game Reserves and National Parks
Game reserves and national parks already account for more than eight per cent of the land in sub-Saharan Africa and in Tanzania it is 40%. Under some of these lands are fantastic reserves of mineral resources and in some cases untapped reserves of uranium. The ‘parks’ are often in strategic areas across borders and those who administrate them can keep out anyone they choose.
Who administrates them? Agencies like Prince Philip’s WWF and other Brotherhood organisations such as the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation, and the UN Development Programme. They employ military and intelligence personnel to do this and as such they are subverting the sovereignty of the African nations.
Operation Stronghold and Operation Lock
Two horrifying examples are Operation Stronghold and Operation Lock. Stronghold was supposed to be supporting the Zimbabwe Department of National Parks and Wildlife Management to save 700 black rhinos in the Zambezi Valley, but it emerged that the Chief Game Ranger Glen Tatham and his staff were simply killing ‘poachers’ without warning. Official figures show that between July 1984 and September 1991, 145 ‘poachers’ were killed, most of them from a helicopter funded by Prince Philip’s WWF and manned by WWF contract employees. But on closer examination of the figures, you find that the overwhelming majority of those killed were unarmed!
Why no prosecutions then?
Because when the story first came to light a bill was rushed through the Zimbabwe Parliament called the Protection of Wildlife (Indemnity) Act which gave the game wardens immunity from prosecution. The WWF was now able to kill whoever it liked whenever it liked in the reserves.
In Operation Lock, the WWF deployed an élite squad of SAS men to ‘neutralise’ the cartels smuggling wildlife and wildlife ‘products’. It turned out that these SAS guys had started to deal themselves in the illegal sale of ivory and rhino horn. People on the ground in Africa have long known that the main killers of wildlife in the parks are those, often employed by the WWF, who are supposed to be protecting them. The Operation Lock scandal erupted in late 1989 and early 1990 and it should also be noted that, as with Operation Stronghold, the arrival of the SAS coincided with a rapid rise in the number of dead ‘poachers’.
The training of Elite squads and KAS Enterprises
This is not surprising given that the training of ‘élite’ squads such as the SAS, the Parachute Regiment, the Green Berets, the Delta Force, and such like, is designed to turn out fully qualified psychopaths. The organisation of the WWF’s Operation Lock was headed by Colonel David Stirling, the founder of the SAS during World War Two. He formed a company for the operation which he named KAS Enterprises, a name inspired by his membership of the Capricorn Africa Society (CAS), which in the words of the governor of Kenya Sir Philip Kerr, was created to ‘preserve apartheid in a sugar coating’.
The treasurer of Capricorn Africa Society, Mervyn Cowrie, was the man behind the Kenyan park system along with Elspeth Huxley. She married into the family of Julian Huxley, the inspiration behind the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, the architects of ‘biodiversity’, and an organisation with a constitution written by the British Foreign Office.
The interconnecting web is incredible. The Queen and Prince Philip knew exactly what Stirling’s SAS assault team were going to do in Operation Lock. Stirling is extremely close to the Windsors and played a significant role in the Queen’s Coronation ceremony under the title of the ‘Golden Stick’. As a Scottish aristocrat, Stirling was particularly close to the Queen Mother, another Black Nobility Scottish bloodline who is certainly not the person she appears to be in her public charade as the nation’s ‘grandma’.
Oaths of Loyalty to the Monarch, not the State
Stirling, along with all members of the SAS, MI5, MI6 and so on, swears his oath of loyalty to the monarch, not the state. You can’t even take your seat as a British MP unless you make the same pledge even though you have been elected by the people. Stirling admitted he had been in close contact with the British Defence and Foreign Ministries, two other links in the Windsor-Brotherhood chain.
Stirling’s operational officer in KAS and Operation Lock was Lt Colonel Ian Crooke, one of the hooded men on the balcony when his SAS team stormed the Iranian Embassy in London in May 1980, while millions watched on live television. People like this were employed by Prince Philip and his WWF to protect wildlife in Africa? No, no, they were there as part of the Windsor-Black Nobility operation to turn Africa into a devastated blood bath.
Rwanda Genocide
The wildlife parks are used as safe havens for the Brotherhood-Windsor-sponsored terrorists responsible for so much genocide in Africa. Nearly 20 per cent of Rwanda is covered by these reserves. The 1990 invasion of Rwanda by the ‘Rwanda Patriotic Front’ (RPF) came via the Gorilla Park and Akagera Park in Uganda on the Rwanda-Zaire border, and the Volcans Park in Rwanda. The RPF (a British-controlled terrorist force) were also based in parts of the Virunga Park in Zaire.
A few months before these events, a ‘gorilla protection programme’ had begun in the Virunga, Gorilla and Volcan Parks. This programme was administered by… the WWF. In 1994 the ‘Rwanda Patriotic Front’ invaded Rwanda via the Akagera Park to trigger a conflict which killed well in excess of a million people.
The violence began shortly after a ‘diplomatic mission’ to Rwanda by Henry Kissinger and Lord Carrington and it followed the sale of weapons to Rwanda by the Israeli government, then headed by Yitzhak Rabin. In truth this invasion was not by the ‘Rwanda Patriotic Front’ (RPF) at all. Almost every member of that group was a soldier in the ‘National Resistance Army’ (NRA) of Uganda’s President Museveni. The leaders of both the RFP and the NRA are the same! The Rwanda Patriotic Front’s David Tinyefuza was the Ugandan Minister for Defence, whilst Paul Kagame the Rwanda Defence Minister under the RPF was head of Intelligence and Counter-Intelligence in the Ugandan army, and the RPF’s Chris Bunyenyezi is the former commander of the Ugandan army’s murderous 306th Brigade.
The Burundi Coup and ‘useless eaters’
The same crowd under Museveni were involved in the attempted coup in Burundi in 1993 in which President Melchior Ndadaye was murdered and an estimated 100,000 people lost their lives. Another aspect of this policy in Africa, and Central and South America, is to reduce the population of what Henry Kissinger calls the “useless eaters”. The genocide in Africa is being coordinated to a large extent out of Uganda which has long been controlled by the Windsor-Black Nobility cartels of banking, business and intelligence agencies.
The British Minister of Overseas Development at the time was Margaret Thatcher’s favourite, Lynda Chalker, who had a number of meetings with Museveni and his officials. South Africa with the end of Nelson Mandela’s presidency is going to be a major target for those who are working to turn black against black to justify the intervention of the white peace keepers. His successor,Thabo Mbeki, is a Brotherhood clone to his bootstraps.
The same pattern employed around the world
This is only the start of the problems in the African continent: it is time for the people there to open their eyes. Exactly the same operation is being played out in the Americas and Australia where the same names and techniques are there to see.
In South and Central America, Brotherhood-controlled governments are ‘privatising’ their mineral and mining companies and handing them to the Black Nobility-Windsor cartels, particularly Rio Tinto, Anglo-American, Barrick Gold and Newmont Mining. Barrick Gold, based in Toronto, was formed in 1981 by Adnan Khashoggi, the Saudi financier and global arms trader and the uncle of Dodi Fayed. Peter Munk, formerly with the British royal household, became chairman of Barrick which appeared from nowhere to be the second biggest gold producer in the world.
One reason for this was the active involvement of the George Bush-Harriman networks. Khashoggi was a backer of President Bush’s Iran-Contra drug-for-arms operation. Newmont Mining is based in Denver, Colorado, a highly significant, and growing, Brotherhood centre. It appears to be an American company, but is once again controlled from London. It has been owned by the Hanson group who sold it to James Goldsmith.
He sold 14% to George Soros, one of the Brotherhood’s most active and identifiable financial manipulators, especially on behalf of the Rothschilds. Other shareholders in Newmont are Lord Jacob Rothschild, the Fidelity Mutual Fund (with its pyramid and sun symbol), and Boston-based drug syndicates.
The takeover of the Banking System in Africa and elsewhere
Alongside the assault on South America by the mineral corporations has come the takeover of the continent’s banking system by the City of London cartel, led by HSBS (Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank which owns Midland Bank) and their interlocking American and Canadian counterparts like Citibank, the Bank of Montreal, and the Bank of Nova Scotia or Scotiabank.
The British Army, NATO and the UN
The Queen is Commander-in-Chief of all armed forces in the United Kingdom and the countries of the Commonwealth. The British army is deployed in many strategic parts of the world either directly or via the NATO and UN peacekeeping operations. British military ‘advisors’ are at work in some 30 countries. Every week the Queen is briefed by the Joint Intelligence Committee on all secret operations. The Windsor-Black Nobility has its own private armies, too. Among these are the Corps of Commissionaires and Defence Systems Ltd. The Corps of Commissionaires was formed, like Crown Agents, under royal sponsorship in 1859 when the British Empire was at the peak of its powers. The idea, so they said, was to find employment for soldiers coming home from the Crimean War and a number were deployed as armed and uninformed security guards at the Black Nobility buildings in the City of London. Branches followed in Australia, South and East Africa, New Zealand and Canada. Another network had been created to post British military personnel and their families to strategic centres.
The Corps of Commissionaires
After the election of Margaret Thatcher in 1979, the Corps of Commissionaires was reorganised and a new division was established to provide ‘specialist security functions’. More members of the military and paramilitary élite were employed and the Queen, the Patron of the Corps of Commissionaires, hosted a reception at Buckingham Palace in 1986 to celebrate the expansion.
The Corp’s Board of Governors in every country were full of the loyal friends of the Queen and Prince Philip. These included Major General David Alexander, Companion of the Bath and former Equerry and Treasurer to Philip, and Air Marshall Sir Thomas Kennedy, Knight Grand Cross of the Bath, Commander of the British Empire, the former Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Airforce in Germany. He was Aide-de-camp to the Queen between 1983 and 86.
The Corps of Commissionaires is a Windsor operation through and through. It won’t be a shock to learn, therefore, that the Corps is an umbrella organisation for hired killers. Some of the companies in its network are Sandline Ltd, Executive Outcomes and Defence Systems Ltd. Like the Corps of Commissionaires these are London-based and employ from the Special Air Services (SAS) and the military and police forces in the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth.
The Corps have a permanent office in Papua New Guinea and the government there was voted from office in 1994 for negotiating a contract with Sandline International to use its mercenaries to put down a local insurgency. Sandline, in turn, subcontracted to Defence Systems Ltd (DSL), which has private and government contracts in more than 40 countries.
It is employed by almost all the City of London cartels, the Club of the Isles, and has branches in Washington, Jacksonville, Hong Kong, Singapore, Bogata, Lima, Maputo, Kinshasa, Luanda, Port Moresby, Moscow, Kazakhstan, Jersey and Sarajevo.
Sierra Leone
Sandline was behind the coup in Sierra Leone which removed a legitimately elected government shortly after they cancelled a $20 million a year contract with the company. This also triggered the inquiry into illegal arms sales to Sierra Leone by British suppliers through the Sandline network. A debt of some $16 million owed to Sandline by Sierra Leone before the coup, was paid by turning over diamond concessions to Executive Outcomes’ London underwriters, Branch Energy.
This firm is owned by Tony Buckingham of Sandline International and yet another former member of the SAS. He had pulled the same diamonds-for-mercenaries ‘arrangement’ on Angola and he floated these concessions on the Vancouver stock-market as a company called Diamond Works.
David Steel
Another business partner of Tony Buckingham is David Steel, the former leader of the British Liberal Party and Anti-Apartheid Movement, and a member of the Queen’s Privy Council. Steel’s Heritage Oil and Gas shares London offices with Branch Energy. In Sarajevo and the former Yugoslavia, it has been working in conjunction with the Queen’s agency, the Crown Agents.
Defence Systems Ltd
Defence Systems Ltd has substantial contracts with the United Nations, the World Bank, BP, Royal Dutch Shell, S. G. Warburg, Credit Suisse, Robert Fleming, Kleinwort Benson, British Airways, Cadbury Schweppes, Jardine Matheson, Rothmans, the Rothschilds, Exxon, Mobil, Amoco, Texaco, Chevron, Brown and Root, General Motors, Coca Cola, and Bechell - simply a directory of the Black Nobility if ever you saw one.
Defence Systems Ltd was established in 1981, again the early years of the Thatcher regime, and its rise was meteoric thanks to its supporters and patrons. At one point in 1980 it was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hambros Bank. The first managing director of DSL was Alestair Morrison, Order of the British Empire, the former number two in the 22nd regiment of the SAS. The first chairman was Major General Viscount Gilbert Monckton of Brenchley, Companion of the Bath, Order of the British Empire, and former chief of staff of the British Army of the Rhine.
His father was in Winston Churchill’s cabinet and chairman of Midland Bank, and his son was editor of The Daily Telegraph (Hollinger/ British Intelligence) Sunday Magazine and advisor to Margaret Thatcher. Philip Warner of the shipping company P&O was another founding director of Defence Systems and a later chief executive was Richard N. Bethell, another former SAS officer.
Afghanistan and terrorist organisations
His father, Lord Nicholas Bethell, was an agent with British Intelligence (MI6) and Lord-in-Waiting to the Queen. He was involved in the manipulation of the war in Afghanistan through the 1980s and the terrorist organisations which have come from that. Defence Systems interlocks with a similar company, Control Risks, a very important part of the network founded in 1974 to serve Lloyds of London. The managing director of Control Risks is Major Arish Turle, former SAS, and among its directors is General Sir John Stanier, former Commander in Chief of UK land forces and Aide-de-
Camp-General to the Queen.
Lord Soames
Lord Soames, the senior Tory politician and son-in-law to Winston Churchill, is another Control Risks director. Soames was ‘advisor’ to Prince Charles at the time that Princess Diana gave her outspoken interview with the BBC programme Panorama. Soames, (nicknamed ‘fatty’), questioned her mental state. Probably she was rather more mentally stable than Soames, somehow. In that Panorama interview Diana spoke in a way that no insider ever has about the Windsors. According to Stephen Dorrill in his book, The Secret Conspiracy, Inside The Secret Service In The 90s, Control Risks is the most important of the private secret services operated by the Queen’s Privy Council ......
