Initially the movement was not large and easily could have been stopped by a simple police action. But, as usual, the anti-Establishment forces received their greatest help from the Establishment itself. For several days the police were told not to interfere. Meanwhile, university officials groveled in the face of outrageous propaganda charges, and the media made national heroes of the rebelling students. MGM even made a movie out of Kunen's book.

These men are the worldââ¬â¢s leading industrialists and they convene to decide how our lives are going to go. These are the guys who wrote that Alliance for Progress. They are the left wing of the ruling class.
They offered to finance our demonstrations in Chicago. We were also offered ESO (Rockefeller) money. They want us to make a lot of radical commotion so they can look more in the center as they move to the left.

[size="2"]Jerry Kirk, while a student at the
University of Chicago, had been
an FBI operative in the SDS, the
DuBois Club, the Black Panthers,
and the Communist Party. He
now warns that young radicals are
being used by the same forces of
the super-rich that they think they
are fighting.[/size][/floatright]Jerry Kirk, while a student at the University of Chicago, on behalf of the FBI became active in the SDS, the DuBois Club, the Black Panthers, and the Communist Party. In 1969, Mr. Kirk broke from the Party and the following year testified before the House and Senate Internal Security Committees. Here is what Mr. Kirk has told us:
[indent]Young people have no conception of the conspiracyââ¬â¢s strategy of pressure from above and pressure from below so well outlined in Communist Jan Kozakââ¬â¢s And Not A Shot Is Fired. They have no idea that they are playing into the hands of the Establishment they claim to hate.
The radicals think that theyââ¬â¢re fighting the forces of the super-rich, like Rockefeller and Ford, and donââ¬â¢t realize that it is precisely, such forces which are behind their own revolution, financing it, and using it for their own purposes.

When Stokeley Carmichael was head of the militant revolutionary group known as SNCC, he was invited to speak at the University of Chicago. Jerry Kirk, then still a Black Panther, was among those who attended, and here is how he described Carmichaelââ¬â¢s appearance:
[indent]Mr Carmichael was obviously in the middle of something rather important which made him more nervous and more tense than in the past ... He started speaking of things which he said he could not have said before because his research was not finished ...
He spoke of the false consciousness of many blacks who believed the Jews were the instruments of oppression of blacks, and ... he made note of the fact that, even though many Jewish people, for example in New York, owned quite a bit of land, one must understand that the overwhelming percentages of mortgages in Harlem was owned, not by Jewish people. but by Morgan Guarantee Trust (the Morgan family) and Chase Manhattan Bank (the Rockefellers).
He repeated the line from the song he liked so well. "Something is happening here, but you don't know quite what it is, do you, Mr. Jones?"
He kept hitting on the theme that a very large monopoly capitalist money group, bankers to be exact, was instrumental in formenting this idea that Jews are the ones actually behind the oppression of blacks. What he was getting at was that ... the Jews were simply one strata of society who are themselves being oppressed by people who were much richer and much more powerful.
In the agencies of this power, he cited banks, the chief among which were Morgan Guarantee Trust and Chase Manhattan. And the foundations connected with these monoliths.
[/indent]
It was not long after this that Stokely Carmichael mysteriously was ousted from both SNCC and the Black Panthers. Apparently he had learned too much.
Stay tuned...
