I really love this paragraph because Jeff Childers ‘gets it’
To say that London is the world’s globalization headquarters is like saying the Mouse lives at Disney World. London has been the velvet-gloved epicenter of globalism ever since the East India Company shipped spices and opium on the same manifest.
London’s financial class didn’t just benefit from globalization— they practically wrote the instruction manual. For them to start hand-wringing now about “mass immigration” and “no benefits from free trade” is a sign the ground is shaking beneath the WEF cathedral.

Please keep that pearl of wisdom in mind. It underlies much of what has been going on since 1776.
I am adding this as background since it gives weight to Paul Sperry’s thoughts that the raid on Mar-a-Lago was about IRAN.
OPERATION GLADIO – CHAPTER 60 – “CIA MOSSAD SOVAK SHAH MULLAHS IRGC”
Colonel Towner did a recent dig on Iran. She is specifically looking at the SOVAK, [WIKI] a secret Police in IRAN originally trained by the Russians in the 1800s, [1879] It was taken over by CIA, MI6 & Mossad. And remained in place during ALL the regime changes in Iran. That would certainly explain why Mossad knows so much about Iranian leaders.
Oh and the guy we know as ‘The Shah’ was a really nasty fellow according to the Colonel’s research. Note that the ‘crown prince’ live quite close to CIA head quarters and do not forget all the recent ‘Regime Change’ chatter. The CIA has pulled regime changes in 90 countries when ever the country’s leaders did not allow the International corporations to exploit the raw materials without paying and used the natives as cheap (slave) labor.
The US Wants to Bring Back the Shah of Iran by David William Pear
[David is a member of Veterans for Peace, Saint Pete (Florida) for Peace, CodePink, and the Palestinian-led non-violent organization International Solidarity Movement. He provides references at the bottom of the article.]
The CIA already has their man ready. They have been grooming him since he was 17 years old. He lives not far from the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia. He is Reza Pahlavi, the Crown Prince of Iran…

From the Trump Administration
This is one of Colonel Towner’s references:
The Shah of Iran and David Rockefeller
SAVAK Terrorism and US Multinationals
Wherever the Four Horsemen gallop the CIA is close behind. [The Colonel said they are actually in the lead clearing the way for the multinationals.] Iran was no exception. By 1957 the Company, as intelligence insiders know the CIA, created one of its first Frankensteins – the Shah’s brutal secret police known as SAVAK. Kermit Roosevelt, the Mossadegh coup-master turned Northrop salesman, admitted in his memoirs that SAVAK was 100% created by the CIA and Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency that acts as appendage of the CIA.
For the next 20 years the CIA and SAVAK were joined at the hip when it came to matters of Persian Gulf security. Three hundred fifty SAVAK agents were shuttled each year to CIA training facilities in McLean, Virginia, where they learned the finer arts of interrogation and torture. [15]
Top SAVAK brass were trained through the US Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Public Safety Program, until it was shut down in 1973 due to its reputation for turning out some of the world’s finest terrorists. In 1963 when JFK was assassinated SAVAK Chief Hassan Pakravan joined the Shah in Tehran to celebrate Kennedy’s death. [16] CIA, MI6 and Mossad supported 30 paramilitary groups in Iran and provided support to Shah-loyalist groups.
Popular anger towards Big Oil, the Shah and his new police state resulted in mass protests. The Shah dealt with the peaceful demonstrations with sheer brutality and got a wink and nod from Langley. From 1957-79 Iran housed 125,000 political prisoners. SAVAK “disappeared” dissenters, a strategy replicated by CIA surrogate dictators in Argentina and Chile…

He may be on to something.
https://bioclandestine.substack.com/p/mar-a-lago-raid-was-about-iran
Bioclandestine points to a Paul Sperry tweet. It is interesting that Paul Sperry was silenced on Twitter by the Biden Admin. January 7, 2023 Article
Investigative Issues: How Democrat Adam Schiff Abused His Power to Demand I Be Kicked Off Twitter
That links to this NY Post Article
….I found an interesting email waiting for me in my inbox from Matt Taibbi, the independent journo Elon Musk tasked with reviewing and releasing internal Twitter documents about decisions to censor content and ban users from the platform.
“Paul,” Taibbi wrote, “just found a crazy email on Twitter — did you know Adam Schiff’s staff . . . asked Twitter to have you banned?”
I was gobsmacked. This would explain why Twitter could never give me a reason for suspending my account, even though I had broken none of its rules….
…
I am starting with Paul Sperry’s article on Jake Sullivan on September 23, 2021.
Biden Security Adviser Jake Sullivan Tied to Alleged 2016 Clinton Scheme to Co-Opt the CIA and FBI to Tar Trump
White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan figures prominently in a grand jury investigation run by Special Counsel John Durham into an alleged 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign scheme to use both the FBI and CIA to tar Donald Trump as a colluder with Russia, according to people familiar with the criminal probe, which they say has broadened into a conspiracy case…
Then Comey on July 22, 2019.
Justice Dept. Watchdog Has Evidence Comey Probed Trump, on the Sly
…Two U.S. officials briefed on the inspector general’s investigation of possible FBI misconduct said Comey was essentially “running a covert operation against” thepresident, starting with a private “defensive briefing” he gave Trump just weeks before his inauguration. They said Horowitz has examined high-level FBI text messages and other communications indicating Comey was actually conducting a “counterintelligence assessment” of Trump during that January 2017 meeting in New York.
In addition to adding notes of his meetings and phone calls with Trump to the official FBI case file, Comey had an agent inside the White House who reported back to FBI headquarters about Trump and his aides, according to other officials familiar with the matter….
Comey’s meeting with Trump took place one day after the FBI director met in the Oval Office with President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden to discuss how to brief Trump — a meeting attended by National Security Adviser Susan Rice, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and National Intelligence Director James Clapper, who would soon go to work for CNN…
Another interesting 2019 story from Sperry on June 6, 2019.
‘Scorched Earth’: Mueller’s Targets Speak Out
Roger Stone was not the only one ‘swatted’ by Mueller & the FBI. WND.com founder and editor Joseph Farah. “…Not long after the interrogation, the 64-year-old Farah suffered a stroke and is still incapacitated…” [the ten witnesses also included AG Jeff Session!!]

IN LOOKING INTO THE BACK STORY LET’S START WITH CHINA

Paul Sperry: Mar-a-Lago raid done by ‘Russiagate’ FBI agents — Liberty Loft
…The suggestion that Democrats now are suddenly concerned about nuclear secrets seems implausible, too, he suggested.
“Recall how Dems and MSM didn’t give a rip about ‘national security’ when President Clinton: — declassified tens of thousands of pages of secrets about our nuclear weapons program; — transferred dual-use missile and other technology to China; and, — kicked open the doors to Los Alamos and our other nuclear weapons labs to Chinese scientists. Beijing subsequently stole the designs to every nuclear warhead in the US arsenal, including MIRVs, according to the Cox Report, and now China can independently target Honolulu, Los Angeles and San Francisco with a single ICBM.”
He also reported the FBI paperwork authorizing the raid on Trump’s home allowed agents to seize any boxes “in proximity” to any targeted papers….

However there is another source, Dr Rummel.
DEMOCIDE: DEATH BY GOVERNMENT
Dr. R.J. Rummel tabulated the 169,202,000 Murdered by their own government, many under some flavor of “Socialism” during the last century.
…Just to give perspective on this incredible murder by government, if all these bodies were laid head to toe, with the average height being 5′, then they would circle the earth ten times. Also, this democide murdered 6 times more people than died in combat in all the foreign and internal wars of the century….
After eight-years and almost daily reading and recording of men, women, and children by the tens of millions being tortured or beaten to death, hung, shot, and buried alive, burned or starved to death, stabbed or chopped into pieces, and murdered in all the other ways creative and imaginative human beings can devise, I have never been so happy to conclude a project. I have not found it easy to read time and time again about the horrors innocent people have been forced to suffer. What has kept me at this was the belief, as preliminary research seemed to suggest, that there was a positive solution to all this killing and a clear course of political action and policy to end it. And the results verify this. The problem is Power. The solution is democracy. The course of action is to foster freedom…

IMPORTANT NOTE: Among all the democide estimates appearing in this book, I have revised two upward. I have changed that for Mao’s famine, 1958-1962, from zero to 38,000,000. And thus I have had to change the overall democide for the PRC (1928-1987) from 38,702,000 to 76,702,000. Details here.

This might explain why those human rights violations were ignored. Not that the international corporations gave a flying F… about their foreign slave labor.
Mao was a Yale Man with Skull & Bones
“By about the year 2000 Communist China will be a “superpower” built by American technology and skill.” — Antony C. Sutton, American Secret Establishment published 1984
Student Mao Zedong & Yale in China
“The fundamental difference between a “New World Order” under the United Nations and an independent United States are nowhere more clearly indicated than in our ‘Declaration of Independence’ affirmation that “men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.” The UN’s total exclusion of God means that rights do not come from God, (but) that they proceed from government, and government can take them away.
Skull and Bones reaches to all the leaders around the world and this may explain Bush’s obsessive support of China, regardless of the human rights violations and arsenol buildup.
“Skull and Bones is a secret fraternity at Yale University which restricts their membership to only fifteen per year. . The society was formed in 1832 by General William Russell, whose shipping firm later dominated the U.S. side of the China opium trade. Yale University was founded by Eli Yale, who made his fortune working for the opium smuggling British East India Company.”
Bush Sr of course was CIA. He was unable to get the World Trade Organization ratified. So just like with the Federal Reserve Act, it was handed off to a Democrat. Clinton, managed to get it ratified in the winter of 1994 and the WTO replaced GATT in 1995. Then Clinton “Negotiated terms for China’s entry into the World Trade Organization, with Permanent Normal Trade Relations.” China officially joined the WTO in 2001 at the end of Clinton’s term.
CHINA & IRAN
Why China’s sitting on the Iran war sidelines — Asia Times
by Lyle Goldstein, June 25, 2025
Washington would do well to take note of Chinese restraint as the situation with Iran grinds on for foreseeable future
On a visit to Shanghai some years ago, I asked a leading Chinese strategist how Beijing would view a war between the US and Iran… he shocked me by explaining that China would benefit from the US fighting yet another costly war in the Middle East, since that could mark the “end of US global hegemony.” The Chinese have indeed always considered the Middle East as “the graveyard of empires.”
While hostilities have subsided for now, there remains a grim possibility that the Israel-Iran ceasefire could break down and the US will once again face pressure to come to Israel’s defense. If China were to aid Iran, as it has Pakistan, with aircraft, missiles, and battle management technologies, that would mark a troubling escalation.
But now, Beijing remains cautious about wielding its military power abroad. Still, China will likely reap geopolitical benefits if the US continues to be on an adversarial footing with Iran….

In a significant shift in Middle Eastern geopolitics, Iran is accelerating negotiations with China to acquire Chengdu J-10C multirole fighter jets, a move prompted by the failure of a long-anticipated deal with Russia for Su-35 aircraft. The decision comes on the heels of a bruising 12-day conflict between Israel and the United States, which exposed critical vulnerabilities in Iran’s aging air force and air defense systems.

As one example of the CIA connections of these organizations, consider the disclosure by John Gilligan, Director of AID during the Carter administration (1977-81).
….Ann Dunham, had been associated during the 1970s and 80s — as employee, consultant, grantee, or student — with at least five organizations with intimate CIA connections during the Cold War: The Ford Foundation, Agency for International Development (AID), the Asia Foundation, Development Alternatives, Inc., and the East-West Center of Hawaii.[5] Much of this time she worked as an anthropologist in Indonesia and Hawaii, being in good position to gather intelligence about local communities.
As one example of the CIA connections of these organizations, consider the disclosure by John Gilligan, Director of AID during the Carter administration (1977-81). “At one time, many AID field offices were infiltrated from top to bottom with CIA people. The idea was to plant operatives in every kind of activity we had overseas, government, volunteer, religious, every kind.”[6] And Development Alternatives, Inc. is the organization for whom Alan Gross was working when arrested in Cuba and charged with being part of the ongoing American operation to destabilize the Cuban government…
