Section III: Antony Sutton Series

Introducing a fellow researcher

Antony C. Sutton (14 Feb 1925 - 17 June 2002 ; 77 y.o.)

Born in London in 1925 his family relocated to California in 1957 with Antony and his two siblings, and he became a U.S. citizen in 1962.

Sutton studied at the universities of London, Göttingen, and California. Sutton received an economics professorship at California State University, Los Angeles and a research fellowship at Stanford University's Hoover Institution on War, Revolution, and Peace from 1968 to 1973.

Due to censorship, Sutton left the Hoover Institution and became an independent researcher.

Stanley Monteith & Antony Sutton in 1980

Henry Ford, July 1938.

The German consul at Cleveland giving Henry Ford the award of the Grand Cross of the German Eagle, the highest medal Nazi Germany could bestow on a foreigner.

In 1911, Standard Oil was broken up as it was found guilty under the Sherman Anti-trust act which basically breaks up a monopoly.

Antony Sutton's book refers mainly to Standard Oil New Jersey, one of the 7 companies that came out of the broken monopoly.

Standard Oil New Jersey is still around today under a different name. As you can see in the above picture.

Esso is the phonetic pronunciation of the initials of Standard Oil which is the international branch of ExxonMobil.

It is important to note that more information has come to light since Antony Sutton's book published in 1972 (Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler) and his above interview in 1980.

A more mainstream journalist and researcher named Adam Lebor was granted access, around 2010-2011, into the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) archives so that he could write a book about the BIS. His book was released in 2012 and was called: The Tower of Basel.

He writes for The Economist, the Times, Monocle, and does reviews for the New York Times.

Because Adam Lebor is mainstream and writes for a lot of 'official' publications, there are certain things that need to be taken with a pinch of salt. (In his full interview linked below, he suggests that the BIS should be more philanthropic and create a foundation such as G. Soros's Open Society Foundation. Which seems to us that either he hasn't looked into what G. Soros does with his foundation or that he's somehow trying to convince people that G. Soros is a role model.)

Here at Open Minds, we believe that his book is an attempt on behalf of the BIS to 'clean' it's name since it has come under a lot of pressure over the last 2 decades. Nevertheless, it contains valuable historical sources of information.

The next video is an extract of an interview he did in 2013 and the information that he gives complements Antony Sutton's interview and clearly demonstrates that bankers and industrialists were all at it in the 1920ies, 30ies and 40ies.

We won't be covering the BIS's activities up until today but if you wish to view Adam Lebor's full interview that covers the BIS's involvement in the creation of the E.U., the Euro and the erosion of national sovereignty and stripping of power from nation states, you can view it here, on Youtube.

The Tower of Basel: the creation of a supra-national shadowy organisation that was 'neutral' and financed both sides of WWII.

Yes, the BIS, and all of it's 'political neutrality in neutral Switzerland', accepted looted gold.

The meetings that rule over the world.

Adam describes how the BIS is run and how their meetings take place: In a hierarchical manner with a 'tier' system.

The central bankers in the lowest tier don't get a seat in the meetings. They may get second hand information over a nice tax-exempt Swiss lunch.

This tier system has not changed since the inception of the BIS, 91 years ago.

The current BIS building was being built in 1973 and the BIS moved into the offices in 1977.

It has it's own bomb shelter in the basement, a sprinkler system with 2 backup levels, in-house medical facilities and a lengthy underground corridor to house its archives. The top floor has a restaurant with a view over France, Germany and Switzerland and they also have their own luxurious country club outside of Basel with tennis courts and a swimming pool.

Swiss authorities also need prior permission before stepping onto the premises.

Note: The BIS building looks like a boot. George Orwell's boot?
