concentration of civilians into "protected zones" (concentration camps). Many of the civilian casualties resulted fromdisease and famine. Reports of the execution of U.S. soldiers taken prisoner by the Filipinos led to savage reprisals byAmerican forces. Many American officers and soldiers called war a "nigger killing business". From almost the beginning ofthe war, soldiers wrote home describing, and usually bragging about, atrocities committed against Filipinos, soldiers andcivilians alike. Increasingly, such personal letters, or portions of them, reached a national audience as anti-imperialisteditors across the nation reproduced them. Once these accounts were widely reproduced, the War Department was forcedto demand that General Otis investigate their authenticity. For each press clipping, he forwarded it to the writer’scommanding officer, who would then convince the soldier to write a retraction.Private Charles Brenner of the Kansas regiment resisted such pressure. He insisted that Colonel Funston had ordered thatall prisoners be shot and that Major Metcalf and Captain Bishop enforced these orders. Otis was obliged to order theNorthern Luzon sector commander, General MacArthur, to look into the charge. Brenner confronted MacArthur’s aide witha corroborating witness, Private Putman, who confessed to shooting two prisoners after Bishop or Metcalf ordered, “Killthem! Damn it, Kill them!” MacArthur sent his aide’s report on to Otis with no comment. Otis ordered Brenner courtmartialed“for writing and conniving at the publication of an article which... contains willful falsehoods concerning himselfand a false charge against Captain Bishop." The judge advocate in Manila convinced Otis that such a trial could open aPandora’s box, as “facts would develop implicating many others.”General Otis sent the Brenner case to Washington writing: “After mature deliberation, I doubt the wisdom of court-martialin this case, as it would give the insurgent authorities a knowledge of what was taking place and they would assertpositively that our troops had practiced inhumanities, whether the charge should be proven or not, as they would use it asan excuse to defend their own barbarities;” and Otis went on, justifying the war crimes, “and it is not thought that hischarge is very grievous under the circumstances then existing, as it was very early in the war, and the patience of ourmen was under great strain.” Towards the end of 1899, General Otis attempted to repair his battered image. He began towork to win new friends among the journalists in Manila and bestowed favors on any journalist who gave him favourablepress. As one historian wrote about Marinduque, the first island with concentration camps: "The triple press ofconcentration (camps), devastation, and harassment led Abad (the Marinduque commander) …to request a truce tonegotiate surrender terms… The Army pacified Marinduque not by winning the allegiance of the people, but by imposingcoercive measures to control their behavior and separate them from the insurgents in the field. Ultimately, military andsecurity measures proved to be the (essential element) of Philippine pacification."[13] This assessment could probably beapplied to all of the Philippines.During the closing months of 1899, Emilio Aguinaldo attempted to counter General Otis’s account by suggesting thatneutral parties—foreign journalists or representatives of the International Red Cross inspect his military operations. Otisrefused, but Emilio Aguinaldo managed to smuggle in four reporters—two English, one Canadian, and a Japanese into thePhilippines. The correspondents returned to Manila to report that American captives were “treated more like guests thanprisoners,” were “fed the best that the country affords, and everything is done to gain their favor.” The story went on tosay that American prisoners were offered commissions in the Philippine army and that three had accepted. The fourreporters were expelled from the Philippines as soon as their stories were printed. Emilio Aguinaldo also released someAmerican prisoners so they could tell their own stories. In a Boston Globe article entitled “With the Goo Goo’s” PaulSpillane described his fair treatment as a prisoner. Emilio Aguinaldo had even invited American captives to the christeningof his baby and had given each a present of four dollars, Spillane recounted. Naval Lieutenant J.C. Gilmore, whose releasewas forced by American cavalry pursuing Aguinaldo into the mountains, insisted that he had received “considerabletreatment” and that he was no more starved than were his captors. Otis responded to these two articles by ordering the“capture” of the two authors, and that they be “investigated”, therefore questioning their loyalty. When F.A. Blake of theInternational Red Cross arrived at Emilio Aguinaldo’s request, Otis kept him confined to Manila, where Otis’s staffexplained all of the Filipinos' violations of civilized warfare. Blake managed to slip away from an escort and venture intothe field. Blake never made it past American lines, but even within American lines he saw burned out villages and“horribly mutilated bodies, with stomachs slit open and occasionally decapitated.” Blake waited to return to San Francisco,where he told one reporter that “American soldiers are determined to kill every Filipino in sight.”J.P.Morgan And The Crash Of 1907If you want to work out the cause of the crash of 1907, checking who benefited is where you might like to look first. Withthe stock market slump causing most of the over extended banks to falter, in steps J.P. Morgan offering to save the day.People will do strange things when in a panic, and this might explain why Morgan was authorised to print $200 millionfrom nothing, which he then used to prop things up. Some of the troubled banks with less than 1% in reserve had nochoice. It was accept this solution or go under. Even if they had worked out that their problems had been caused by thesame people now offering the solution, there is not a lot they could have done about it. J.P.Morgan was hailed a hero. "Allthis trouble could be averted if we appointed a committee of six or seven men like J.P.Morgan to handle the affairs of ourcountry." Woodrow Wilson (total sellout to the BankLords!). The Conspiracy wished to take control of Americanmoney, “mobilize its credit” to finance World War I and overthrow the Czar (for Russian money and creation of theirprivate central bank). And it needed America to assure victory over Germany and control of the Bundesbank. PresidentWoodrow Wilson was pressured into signing the Federal Reserve Act and to declare war on Germany. Later he was tosay, “I have involuntarily ruined my government”. Ominously, he warned, “Some of the biggest men in the UnitedStates…are afraid of something. They know there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, sointerlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak incondemnation of it.” (And it has grown enormously from a century of war.) But not everyone was fooled at that time.The Hidden History Of Money & New World Order Usury Secrets Revealed at last! Page 270
