When Prime Minister Winston Churchill and President Franklin D Roosevelt signed the Atlantic Charter in 1941, it was seen as a historic “Changing of the guard”. The transfer of power from Great Britain to the United States. To all intents and purposes, the British Empire had fallen. Britain was so weakened by WWII to effectively administer colonial rule so the break up of the Empire seemed inevitable. The first countries to gain independence were India and Pakistan in 1947, followed a year later by Burma and Sri Lanka, in the 50s, Egypt Sudan and Ghana, and within a further 10 years, Malta, Cyprus, Kuwait, South Yemen, Malaysia, Singapore, Samoa, Surinam, Guyana, Lesotho, Swaziland, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Sierra Leone and Gambia all achieved independence. The end of  British rule did  not represent the death of imperialism, rather, the beginning of a new era of Anglo-American “Neo imperialism”. Americas post war refinancing of Western Europe was the service for which they were entitled to a large slice of the cake. America had the financial might to administer hegemony but Britain had the expertise as well as the diplomatic connections. These assets were to ensure that capitalists on both sides of the pond were to consolidate and advance their financial interests across the developing world. In addition to this, America had no qualms about employing covert C.I.A operations with full support of the military machine.  

There is no shortage of documentation describing the operations initiated by the Anglo-American intelligence community, all supposedly in the interests of freedom and democracy. Some of the following examples are proof, if it were needed, that there is a moral void at the heart of  governments who are prepared to go to such lengths on behalf of individuals or organisations who are in pursuit of financial gain.

Between the years of 1974 and 1980, the C.I.A conducted a campaign of destabilisation against Jamaican Prime Minister Michael Manley’s democratic PNP party as a reprisal for the introduction of a 7.5% production levy on the bauxite industry which was in the hands of foreign investors. Former C.I.A agent, Phillip Agee, claimed to be able to identify in Jamaica at the time, all the typical CIA methods of destabilisation . These included spreading false information in the local and international press, funding opposition groupings , supplying arms to opponents of the government , and helping all manner of social disruption by means of arson , murder and industrial action.

One of the most documented instances of “Gunboat diplomacy” being used to further the interests of private capital was the C.I.A. sponsored revolution in Guatemala in 1953. American company, United Fruit, owned vast tracts of uncultivated land in Guatemala, had control of the transport and communications infrastructure and enjoyed a monopoly on the countries banana exports. When democratically elected President Arbenz had made land reforms a policy centerpiece, expropriating millions of acres and gave them to 100,000 landless peasants, United Fruit who were connected to the Dulles Brothers and various other state department officials, began to apply its influence. The exquisitely planned operation to overthrow Arbenz, relied upon spreading the belief that Guatemala had been infiltrated by communists. A small mercenary army was formed across the border in Nicaragua and Honduras. Armed and equipped by C.I.A forces, they made their incursion into Guatemala amid widespread anti-communist propaganda. Such was the military and political disarray that followed, Arbenz had no option but to step down. United Fruit received all of their land back and the Labour Unions were destroyed under the new presidency of Castillo Armas.

The I.M.F and World Bank have contributed to a vast catalogue of examples of financial piracy. Under the guise of financing destitute states, the I.M.F. impose a list of conditionality’s (114 on average) before allowing access to credit. These range from demanding that the recipients remove trade barriers sell assets to foreign investors slash social spending and make labour markets flexible. And all this in some of the poorest countries on earth. In Tanzania’s case, within the space of 15 years, per capita income fell from $309 to $210, literacy rates dropped and 51% of the population fell into abject poverty as a result of of I.M.F interference.

What kind of civilised governments allow this to happen? Despite full illustrations of the activities of aggressive capital, we are somehow led into thinking that poverty is a Phantom Menace which strikes in some random manner. We recognise that it is our duty as responsible human beings to eradicate poverty and there are numerous charitable organisations and humanitarian groups who stand united in the cause. How many of us realise that we are unwittingly drawn into a dialectical dead end? The church’s organisation to combat poverty and sickness is absolutely laudable but without an awareness of the powers that have manoeuvred us into a retroactive response, we risk becoming seriously adrift from Gods perfect will.

It is with absolute dismay that we are witnessing the visible Church’s embracing of Luciferian Values and ideals. Yes you read correctly! The Church is maneuvering towards a synthesis that is more aligned with Satan’s end-time plan, than with the Kingdom of Heaven.

We should not be surprised at this. The Bible warns us to watch out for it. (Matt 24, 2Thess 2) God’s call to the Church is to be seperate from the world, not embrace it in humanitarian action.

“Depart, depart, go out from there! Touch no unclean thing! Come out from it and be pure, you who carry the vessels of the LORD” Isa 52
