BARACK OBAMA: VENTRILOQUIST’S DUMMY-- ZBIGNIEW BRZEZINSKI: VENTRILOQUIST


BARACK OBAMA: VENTRILOQUIST’S DUMMY
ZBIGNIEW BRZEZINSKI: VENTRILOQUIST
By Webster G. Tarpley


Washington, DC — May 19 – In my book Obama – The Postmodern Coup: The Making
of a Manchurian Candidate, I argue that presidential candidate Barack Obama is a
wholly owned puppet of Zbigniew Brzezinski and his associates of the Trilateral
Commission, founded by David Rockefeller. As some have noted, Brzezinski has been
attempting to conceal his actual domination of the Obama campaign, for which he is the
chief guru and controller. Now a rhetorical outburst by Obama on the campaign trail in
Oregon has once again pointed to the reality that Obama is a ventriloquist’s dummy, with
the Russia-hating fanatic Brzezinski, a barbarous relic of the Cold War, acting as the
ventriloquist.


At a recent campaign stop in Oregon, Obama stated:
“We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72
degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say
OK,” Obama said. “That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen,” he added.
If India and China's “carbon footprint gets as big as ours, we're gone.” (AFP)


This remarkable statement reveals the true program of a future Obama administration:
savage austerity, brutal economic sacrifice, and a massive further reduction in the
standard of living of the depleted and exhausted US population – as demanded by David
Rockefeller, George Soros, and Obama’s Wall Street backers. This will be done under
left cover – through a global warming tax, a third world solidarity tax, and other
demagogic frauds, with the revenue going to bail out Goldman Sachs, Citibank, and JP
Morgan Chase. The tired, discredited post-9/11 “war on terror” slogans will be dumped.
Most interesting is that Obama’s sound bytes are actually a sloganized version of a key
passage from Zbigniew Brzezinski’s recent book Second Chance: Three Presidents and
the Crisis of American Superpower (New York: Basic Books, 2007), pp. 198-199. This
book contains Zbig’s desperate strategy for preserving the crisis-ridden US-UK world
empire, including by making the US “social model” more attractive to developing sector
publics. Zbig writes:


“In mutually compounding ways, material self-indulgence, persistent social
shortcomings, and public ignorance about the world increase the difficulty the
American democracy faces in formulating a globally appealing platform for
effective world leadership. Americans must recognize that their patterns of
consumption will soon collide head-on with increasingly impatient egalitarian
aspirations. Whether through the exploitation of natural resources, excessive
energy consumption, indifference to global ecology, or the exorbitant size of
houses for the well-to-do, indulgent self-gratification at home conveys
indifference to the persisting deprivations of much of the world. (Just try to
imagine a world in which 2.5 billion Chinese and Indians consume as much

energy per capita as Americans do.) That reality the American public has yet to
assimilate. To lead, America must not only be sensitive to global realities. It must
also be socially attractive. That calls for a broader national consensus in favor of
correcting the key failings of the American social model.”


Obama has thus unmasked himself as the exterminating angel of super-austerity dictated
by the elitist Trilateral bankers’ clique. Will he cut the current US standard of living by
40%? By 50%? When he does, will he still call it the politics of hope? Obama has been
trained to hate the American people through two decades of association with hatemongers
like Reverend Wright, Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, and Brzezinski himself.


For Rockefeller and Soros, Obama’s hatred of the American people is a positive
guarantee that he will enforce Wall Street’s austerity decrees with a vengeance. Forget
the utopian platitudes and the messianic rhetoric: Obama’s real economic program is now
clear for all to see. It is a path that leads to genocide against the US population, among
others.


Obama’s Oregon outburst needs to be read in the light of earlier unguarded statements by
Michelle Obama, who has said at various times in her stump speech: “…before we can
work on the problems, we have to fix our souls - our souls are broken in this nation. If we
can’t see ourselves in one another, we will never make those sacrifices…. We need a
different leadership because our souls are broken. We need to be inspired...to make the
sacrifices that are needed to push us to a different place…. The change Barack is talking
about is hard, so don’t get too excited because Barack is going to demand that you too be
different." Here the theme of purification and redemption by means of sacrifice and
economic austerity is clearly conveyed. Now Barack has begun to fill in the details.
Insiders have long recognized that Zbigniew Brzezinski (helped by his son Mark) owns
and runs Obama. David Ignatius has pointed to Second Chance as a scenario for a future
Obama administration. Ignatius commented over a year ago: “Zbigniew Brzezinski has
written a new book that might be a foreign policy manifesto for Barack Obama…. The
most intriguing part of Brzezinski's book is what I would describe as the Obama
manifesto.” (David Ignatius, “A Manifesto for the Next President,” Washington Post,
March 14, 2007) It has also long been known that Zbig does the thinking for Obama; the
London Economist last year hailed “a new brain for Barack Obama! It's 78 years old and
it still works perfectly. It belongs to Zbigniew Brzezinski, the peppery ex-national
security adviser to Jimmy Carter.” (“A New Brain for Barack Obama, Economist.com,
March 14, 2007)


Obama’s campaign has long been attacking Bush from the right, criticizing the current
regime for not exploiting 9/11 to impose savage economic austerity, as seen in Samantha
Power’s “monster” interview. We now have good evidence that Obama will flay the
American people alive with his elitist economic policies. Obama has committed a major
error by showing his hand. Will voters react in time to stop him?
