Lew returns to his series on the presidency of Internationalist Dwight David Eisenhower. Ike allowed Richard Nixon and John Foster Dulles to campaign in 1952 for the liberation of the“captive peoples” victimized by communism, but he hated it and had no intention to fulfill those promises. He proved it by ignoring rebellions in East Germany, Hungary, and even within the Soviet Union.
Ike also aided/ignored communists and their advances in Vietnam, Cuba, Algeria, and Iraq, while seeking negotiations with the USSR at every turn. We now know American governmental and corporate credits and technology empowered our “Cold War” enemy at every turn.
00:00:00
Look around you.
00:00:03
Wrong rules the land while waiting justice sleeps.
00:00:06
I saw in the congress
00:00:08
and crossing the country,
00:00:10
campaigning with Ron Paul.
00:00:12
Tyranny
00:00:14
rising,
00:00:15
unspeakable
00:00:16
evil,
00:00:17
manifesting,
00:00:18
devils lying about our heritage who want to
00:00:21
enslave and replace us.
00:00:24
But we are Americans
00:00:26
with a manifest destiny
00:00:28
to bring the new Jerusalem
00:00:30
of endless
00:00:31
possibilities.
00:00:32
But first, this fight
00:00:35
for freedom.
00:00:36
Be a part of it. But don't delay
00:00:40
because this is the hour of decision.
00:00:45
Hour of decision with Lou Moore starts now.
00:00:49
Welcome to the one hundred and sixth episode
00:00:51
of hour of decision.
00:00:53
My name is Lou Moore. And today,
00:00:56
we're gonna get back to our series on
00:00:59
Dwight David Eisenhower. This is gonna be the
00:01:01
seventh episode in that series,
00:01:04
and the title is gonna be
00:01:06
fake
00:01:07
containment of communism.
00:01:10
Fake containment, folks.
00:01:13
So
00:01:14
let's recap just a little bit about Dwight
00:01:17
Eisenhower. He was,
00:01:19
only a colonel.
00:01:22
Roosevelt made him a general and bypassed a
00:01:24
whole lot of generals to make him the
00:01:26
commander of our allied forces in Europe.
00:01:29
He was a dutiful servant of Franklin Roosevelt
00:01:32
and all of his
00:01:34
compliance with the desires of Joseph Stalin,
00:01:37
both in Europe and in Asia.
00:01:41
Eisenhower,
00:01:42
considered to be a Democrat
00:01:44
so much so that Eleanor Roosevelt in 1948
00:01:47
wanted to run him for president rather than
00:01:50
Harry Truman
00:01:51
to keep the presidency in,
00:01:54
Democrat hands.
00:01:56
He was also made the president of Columbia
00:01:59
University,
00:02:01
not exactly a bastion of conservatism,
00:02:03
the home of the Frankfurt School,
00:02:06
among other folks, a place where Eisenhower said
00:02:08
he couldn't find a single communist,
00:02:11
involved with the university
00:02:13
despite the presence of the Frankfurt School
00:02:15
and despite the presence of friends of his,
00:02:19
like Philip Jessup, a later target
00:02:22
of both, senator Pat McCarron of Nevada
00:02:25
as well as my hero,
00:02:27
senator Joseph R. McCarthy.
00:02:30
Eisenhower was also put on the board
00:02:33
during this time of the Carnegie Endowment of
00:02:36
International
00:02:36
Peace.
00:02:38
Kind of unfortunate in some ways because they,
00:02:41
made the president
00:02:43
during this period. They made president of the
00:02:45
Carnegie Endowment,
00:02:47
a man by the name of Alger Hiss,
00:02:49
who turned out to
00:02:50
be a communist.
00:02:54
So a little bit checkered all the way
00:02:55
around with Eisenhower. He ran in '52 as
00:02:58
a Republican
00:03:00
because there no one thought a Democrat could
00:03:02
win.
00:03:04
Harry Truman was polling at 21%
00:03:08
approval
00:03:09
in 1952.
00:03:10
It was it was the race for the
00:03:12
Republicans
00:03:12
to return to power
00:03:14
without any doubt,
00:03:16
but, the establishment was hell bent,
00:03:19
derailing the favorite, mister Republican himself,
00:03:23
Robert Taft,
00:03:24
and America
00:03:26
first Republican, something that would have been a
00:03:28
disaster
00:03:30
for the
00:03:31
corporate masters that we have who are,
00:03:35
internationalists
00:03:36
and one world government advocates
00:03:38
as far as our overseas policy
00:03:41
as well as Fabian socialist at home, wanting
00:03:44
to gradually give us that total government
00:03:47
as espoused by Karl
00:03:50
Marx.
00:03:51
So
00:03:52
Eisenhower gets by Taft in '52,
00:03:55
becomes the president of The United States.
00:03:59
And,
00:04:00
you know, from the beginning, there were tensions
00:04:02
because Eisenhower was internationalist
00:04:05
and internationalist
00:04:06
all the way,
00:04:08
which means he was a big, big believer
00:04:11
in the doctrine they came up with after
00:04:13
World War two
00:04:15
of containment.
00:04:17
You might remember me talking about the doctrine
00:04:19
of containment.
00:04:21
You couldn't be.
00:04:23
Oh, let's have peace with The USSR. You
00:04:26
couldn't be the way Franklin Roosevelt had been
00:04:29
the entire
00:04:30
time he was in office, not just during
00:04:32
World War two, but the entire time. Remember,
00:04:35
Roosevelt is the one who recognized,
00:04:38
first recognized the Soviet Union, something that countries
00:04:42
around the world were very leery to do
00:04:45
because of the gangsterous
00:04:47
nature
00:04:48
of the Bolshevik
00:04:50
government over there, particularly in the hands
00:04:53
of one Joseph Stalin.
00:04:56
So,
00:04:58
at any rate,
00:05:00
Roosevelt
00:05:00
had those kind of policies toward the Soviets.
00:05:03
But after World War two,
00:05:05
the public was so upset
00:05:08
about going to war, losing hundreds of thousands
00:05:12
of troops,
00:05:13
hundreds of thousands dead, and many, many, many
00:05:16
thousands more
00:05:18
injured, psychologically
00:05:19
damaged
00:05:20
by the
00:05:21
war, only to find out that, instead of
00:05:24
destroying
00:05:26
tyranny all over the world and
00:05:29
ensuring that we would have those four freedoms
00:05:32
that Franklin Roosevelt kept talking about
00:05:34
at the end of the war.
00:05:36
We had a world where Eastern Europe was
00:05:38
now
00:05:39
solidly in the hands of the communist,
00:05:42
absolute totalitarian
00:05:44
tyrants.
00:05:45
China
00:05:46
was by 1949
00:05:47
in the hands of the communist.
00:05:50
Communist insurgencies were having success in Vietnam.
00:05:53
Korea was now communist.
00:05:56
Insurgencies
00:05:57
in Tibet,
00:05:58
insurgencies in The Philippines,
00:06:01
and Western Europe was also,
00:06:03
we were told, threatened by communist, which is
00:06:06
why we had to spend billions
00:06:08
on the Marshall Plan
00:06:10
to prop up a bunch of Fabian socialist
00:06:13
governments in Western Europe after World War two,
00:06:17
supposedly
00:06:18
to prevent
00:06:19
communist
00:06:20
from taking over these governments in places like
00:06:23
France
00:06:24
and Italy.
00:06:26
So the public was angry.
00:06:28
And in 1946,
00:06:29
they elected a whole raft
00:06:32
of anti communist, both Republicans and Democrats,
00:06:36
to the senate and to the house.
00:06:38
Richard Nixon elected in '46 and Joseph McCarthy
00:06:42
elected in 1946.
00:06:44
And from that time forward,
00:06:46
with with all of the revelations
00:06:48
of the internal subversion in the Roosevelt administration
00:06:52
and the Truman administration,
00:06:54
all the infiltration of communist in our government,
00:06:58
all the victories of communism overseas,
00:07:01
the fact that they got the bomb, that
00:07:03
the Russians got the bomb, the atomic bomb,
00:07:06
and later the hydrogen bomb assuredly
00:07:10
because of
00:07:12
traders within our government.
00:07:14
I mean, for example, the Rosenbergs
00:07:16
who were executed
00:07:18
for being traders to our government that were
00:07:20
working on the atomic
00:07:22
project, the fact that China was taken,
00:07:25
all these things just
00:07:26
the the anti communism and the public was
00:07:29
just building and building and building.
00:07:32
So our internationalist corporate masters had to come
00:07:36
up with a doctrine
00:07:38
that would allow them to continue a one
00:07:40
world project
00:07:42
even though now over half the world
00:07:45
was in the hands of these bloodthirsty communists
00:07:47
that the American public could not stand.
00:07:50
And so the doctrine they came up with
00:07:52
was containment,
00:07:54
which was,
00:07:55
well, they have the bomb now over there
00:07:57
in Russia. We can't just
00:07:59
go off half cocked and try to,
00:08:02
recapture any ground from the communist.
00:08:04
But what we will do is we will
00:08:06
negotiate with them. We will continue to build
00:08:09
world institutions
00:08:11
around peace
00:08:12
among other things,
00:08:14
but we will just contain
00:08:16
the communist. We just won't let them take
00:08:18
any more territory
00:08:21
now that they've taken almost half the globe.
00:08:24
And so that was the doctrine of containment
00:08:26
and very much the doctrine
00:08:28
that Dwight David Eisenhower,
00:08:31
ascribed to. And it caused a lot of
00:08:34
tension,
00:08:35
even within his own administration and particularly with
00:08:38
his vice president. I think I told you
00:08:40
from the beginning that the relationship between,
00:08:44
Eisenhower and Richard Nixon
00:08:46
was a fraught one at best,
00:08:49
and Ike was,
00:08:50
this close to throwing him off the ticket
00:08:53
When Nixon made the checkers speech,
00:08:56
particularly after Robert Taft,
00:08:59
Eisenhower's
00:09:00
defeated America first foe,
00:09:02
the man he defeated in the Republican primaries
00:09:05
in 1952,
00:09:06
came around to supporting Eisenhower, and many people
00:09:09
on Ike's team
00:09:11
were saying openly, we need to get rid
00:09:13
of Nixon
00:09:14
and put tapped on the ticket because they
00:09:16
were very conservative
00:09:19
very concerned, excuse me,
00:09:22
about conservative
00:09:23
Republicans
00:09:25
not going along
00:09:26
with a man who pretty obviously
00:09:29
was not a Republican
00:09:31
until he began to run for president in
00:09:33
1952.
00:09:34
That's Eisenhower.
00:09:36
So anyhow, fraught relationship with Nixon and the
00:09:39
tension continued on the campaign trail
00:09:42
because Nixon was also,
00:09:44
at least to some degree, an internationalist,
00:09:47
but Nixon understood
00:09:49
the rank and file Republicans in a way
00:09:51
that Eisenhower did not. And when you go
00:09:54
to these rubber chicken dinners and these the
00:09:57
Lincoln dinners as they call them, still have
00:09:59
them all over the country at the county
00:10:01
level
00:10:02
in the GOP.
00:10:04
People wanted to hear about liberation,
00:10:07
liberating Eastern Europe,
00:10:09
from the communist and particularly this new voting
00:10:11
block now of ethnics,
00:10:14
Hungarians,
00:10:16
people from the the Slavic countries that had
00:10:18
come to America.
00:10:20
They were very open
00:10:21
to the Republican message because they hated communism
00:10:25
so bad, but they didn't wanna hear that
00:10:28
we were just going to contain it, and
00:10:30
we were gonna leave Hungary. We were gonna
00:10:32
leave,
00:10:33
Czechoslovakia.
00:10:34
We were gonna leave Yugoslavia and Romania and
00:10:37
Bulgaria
00:10:37
and Poland and the Baltic States all in
00:10:40
the hands of the bloodthirsty
00:10:42
Joseph Stalin. They didn't wanna hear that. They
00:10:45
wanted to hear that America
00:10:47
would lead the way in some way, maybe
00:10:50
not by putting troops or boots on the
00:10:52
ground as we say it now, but that
00:10:54
in some way,
00:10:56
Americans
00:10:58
would,
00:10:59
facilitate
00:11:01
the defeat of communism
00:11:03
around the globe and particularly in these countries
00:11:05
where there there is now new voting blocks
00:11:08
that the GOP was after in this country.
00:11:11
The
00:11:12
immigrants coming to this country from places like,
00:11:15
well, particularly
00:11:16
Hungary
00:11:17
and, Poland and Yugoslavia.
00:11:20
And so,
00:11:21
Nixon was trying to appeal these people, and
00:11:24
Eisenhower
00:11:24
I I mean, a lot of tension. Stephen
00:11:26
Ambrose, many
00:11:28
historians that followed Eisenhower carefully,
00:11:31
document this tension that went on because I
00:11:33
didn't want anything to do with that kind
00:11:35
of talk. He was a containment
00:11:38
man all the way, not liberation.
00:11:41
Not liberation in any way,
00:11:43
but only containment. So
00:11:46
this is kind of the backdrop of what
00:11:48
we're gonna talk about today, which is the
00:11:50
Eisenhower foreign policy,
00:11:53
the successes and lack of success of it.
00:11:56
And when we talk about Eisenhower's foreign policy,
00:11:59
we have to start with a very strange
00:12:01
man
00:12:02
named John Foster Dulles,
00:12:05
who was his secretary of state. And before
00:12:08
that,
00:12:09
was Thomas Dewey's
00:12:11
foreign policy guru, goo Dewey, the 1948
00:12:15
Republican nominee, internationalist,
00:12:17
and a big force behind
00:12:20
Eisenhower's
00:12:21
political rise and his success,
00:12:24
defeating Robert Taft for the Republican primary
00:12:27
in 1952. So is John Foster Dulles. And,
00:12:30
of course, he's joined at the hip with
00:12:31
his brother, Allen Dulles. It's a name you
00:12:34
may more likely have heard of because Allen
00:12:36
Dulles
00:12:37
continued in the CIA until the fraught
00:12:40
Bay of Pigs
00:12:42
and then was brought back to,
00:12:44
be involved with the Warren Commission
00:12:47
and the whole Kennedy assassination. So a lot
00:12:50
of Kennedy
00:12:51
assassination conspiracies
00:12:53
know the name and will bring up the
00:12:55
name of Allen Dulles.
00:12:57
So I'm gonna take the liberty now to
00:12:59
read to you a little bit
00:13:02
out of a manuscript
00:13:04
that someday I might turn into a book
00:13:07
talking about some of these things.
00:13:10
John Foster Dulles,
00:13:13
a strange figure that worked very hard
00:13:16
at allying the allying the fears of anti
00:13:19
communist to allaying, excuse me, the fears of
00:13:23
anti communist toward Eisenhower
00:13:25
was his secretary of state, John Foster Dulles.
00:13:30
He worked hand in glove with his brother
00:13:33
who Ike made the head of the CIA,
00:13:36
Allen Dulles.
00:13:37
John Foster Dulles was a powerful Wall Street
00:13:40
figure
00:13:41
and was a leader
00:13:43
in JPMorgan's
00:13:45
favorite law firm, Sullivan and Cromwell,
00:13:49
who were the inventors of the holding company.
00:13:53
Allen Dulles worked there as well.
00:13:56
Historian Carol Quigley described John Foster Dulles as
00:14:00
a, quote,
00:14:01
Morgan satellite.
00:14:04
Hardly a conservative,
00:14:06
he had spent a lot of time hanging
00:14:08
out with the left wing
00:14:10
pseudo religious
00:14:12
Federal Council of Churches,
00:14:14
which many aspects of the Federal Council of
00:14:17
Churches were later deemed to be communist front
00:14:20
organizations,
00:14:21
folks.
00:14:22
Side note.
00:14:23
Both brothers had foreign policy experience that went
00:14:26
back to the Woodrow
00:14:28
Wilson
00:14:29
White House
00:14:30
and the founding
00:14:32
of the Council on Foreign Relations,
00:14:35
which, was formed in the wake of the
00:14:38
failure
00:14:39
of The United States to join the League
00:14:41
of Nations.
00:14:43
The CFR
00:14:44
has been the elite's principal platform
00:14:48
to promote globalism in America that may have
00:14:50
been supplanted by the World Economic Forum, but
00:14:53
the CFR
00:14:54
is still a big effing deal,
00:14:57
in, the elite world of America
00:15:01
and is tied to the elite world in
00:15:03
Britain
00:15:04
as well.
00:15:06
The CFR,
00:15:07
excuse me, Truman brought John Foster Dulles into
00:15:11
the state department. This is Harry s Truman.
00:15:14
As an an an adviser
00:15:18
to the communist helping secretary of state Edward
00:15:22
Stettinhouse.
00:15:24
In this capacity,
00:15:25
Dulles stayed in friendly proximity
00:15:28
of all those UN functionaries who were working
00:15:31
day and night
00:15:33
to diminish
00:15:34
US sovereignty,
00:15:36
including the communist spy, Alger Hiss.
00:15:40
In 1946,
00:15:42
John Foster Dulles is made the chairman of
00:15:45
the board
00:15:46
of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace,
00:15:50
not exactly a right wing group,
00:15:52
and supported the election,
00:15:56
that same day of its new president.
00:15:59
And, yes, that's right, folks.
00:16:01
They picked
00:16:02
Alger Hiss,
00:16:04
the notorious
00:16:05
Alger Hiss, who would soon be brought down
00:16:07
by Richard Nixon,
00:16:09
and the House Committee on Un American Activities,
00:16:11
and Hiss would actually serve nine years in
00:16:13
prison
00:16:15
for lying
00:16:16
about his extensive role
00:16:19
as a spy,
00:16:20
not just an agent of influence, but as
00:16:22
a spy for the GRU, which is the
00:16:25
military
00:16:27
intelligence arm of communist Russia.
00:16:31
There is a written record
00:16:34
of warnings to this board, the Carnegie board,
00:16:36
about his,
00:16:38
which Dulles
00:16:39
ignored.
00:16:41
This included a letter from National Unitarian official
00:16:44
Larry s Davinau,
00:16:46
who wrote Dulles stating that Hiss has, quote,
00:16:49
a provable
00:16:50
communist record, unquote,
00:16:53
offering to share his DC sourced documentation.
00:16:57
Dulles declined him though writing,
00:17:00
there is absolutely no reason to doubt mister
00:17:03
Hiss' complete loyalty
00:17:05
to our American institutions.
00:17:08
I have been thrown in intimate contact with
00:17:10
him in San Francisco,
00:17:13
London,
00:17:14
and Washington,
00:17:15
and I doubt that the people in Washington
00:17:17
you've referred to
00:17:19
know
00:17:20
him any better than I
00:17:22
do. That very well may be true.
00:17:25
But what he what Dulles knew about his
00:17:29
not sure about that.
00:17:31
Dulles kept adding
00:17:33
to an impeccable
00:17:34
establishment
00:17:35
resume over decades
00:17:38
until
00:17:38
in the heat of the competition for a
00:17:41
US senate seat in New York in 1949,
00:17:45
where he chose to run as a Republican.
00:17:48
And in that race, he accused his opponent
00:17:50
of communist
00:17:52
sympathies.
00:17:54
See, again, folks,
00:17:56
politics was to the point after World War
00:17:58
two and particularly,
00:18:00
by 1949.
00:18:01
You absolutely
00:18:03
had to swear you were a
00:18:05
rabid anti communist or you couldn't get anywhere
00:18:08
electorally
00:18:09
in America
00:18:10
from either in either political party.
00:18:13
And this is, so
00:18:16
suddenly Dulles now. He's a big anti communist.
00:18:19
He went all out in an article published
00:18:22
nationally during the election of nineteen fifty two
00:18:26
claiming
00:18:27
that the no win
00:18:31
Truman era policy of containment of communism
00:18:34
had to be replaced.
00:18:37
Dulles wants to replace containment,
00:18:39
he says,
00:18:40
by one of liberation
00:18:42
of nations held captive
00:18:44
behind the iron curtain.
00:18:46
Dulles even told Republican crowds that the international
00:18:50
treaties connected to his own
00:18:52
life's work
00:18:54
might threaten US sovereignty.
00:18:56
In other words,
00:18:59
back to I I brought up a talked
00:19:01
about this in the ends in the last
00:19:03
episode,
00:19:04
Eisenhower episode, I should say, and in previous
00:19:06
ones as well about this big fight over
00:19:09
the Bricker amendment
00:19:11
to end all these side agreements and all
00:19:13
these treaties
00:19:14
that were impinging on our sovereignty,
00:19:17
many of which
00:19:18
Dulles directly worked on.
00:19:20
And he and he did work day and
00:19:22
night to defeat the Bricker Amendment
00:19:25
once he became Eisenhower's secretary of state, but
00:19:28
he did it very quietly. And Eisenhower would
00:19:31
march him out to various meetings of supporters
00:19:35
of the Bricker amendment before Ike was elected,
00:19:39
implying that he would
00:19:42
oppose any effort to impinge our sovereignty and
00:19:45
support
00:19:46
efforts like the Bricker Amendment. Totally, folks, this
00:19:49
is just total
00:19:50
dishonesty.
00:19:52
Total. Despite their unlikely source,
00:19:55
these comments against containment
00:19:58
and against treaties that would be,
00:20:01
impinging on our sovereignty,
00:20:04
his words did help to cement
00:20:08
conservative support behind Ike because they were very
00:20:10
conservative. Republicans were very,
00:20:13
very skeptical of Eisenhower.
00:20:16
After the election, the words continued.
00:20:20
Dulles blithely talked of massive nuclear
00:20:23
retaliation
00:20:25
against the Soviet Union and the need to
00:20:27
take Moscow to the brink of war,
00:20:31
also called brinksmanship,
00:20:33
to get them to back down from aggressive
00:20:35
actions
00:20:36
or threats.
00:20:38
Any substance behind this talk
00:20:41
was another story.
00:20:44
It was missing
00:20:46
entirely.
00:20:48
On Dulles' watch for Ike, the stalemate in
00:20:51
Korea
00:20:52
was ratified,
00:20:54
with the communist being contained
00:20:56
right about where they started
00:20:58
when the war began at the 38 Parallel.
00:21:02
In 1954,
00:21:04
Vietnam was partitioned
00:21:06
in a similar way,
00:21:08
giving the communist a foothold in one half
00:21:12
of that nation,
00:21:14
which had been part of French
00:21:16
Indochina.
00:21:19
Dulles refused
00:21:20
at the same time to give the French
00:21:23
logistical
00:21:24
support
00:21:25
to stave off defeat
00:21:27
at their last battle with the communist at
00:21:29
Dien Bien Phu.
00:21:31
Many people believe folks because
00:21:33
the the French were actually very effective against
00:21:36
the communist
00:21:37
Vietnamese,
00:21:38
and that if they could have gotten out
00:21:40
of this trap that they they communist put
00:21:43
them in at Dien Bien Phu, that they
00:21:45
could have won the war
00:21:47
against these communist with just a little help
00:21:50
at a key time from The United States,
00:21:52
but Dulles
00:21:54
and Eisenhower
00:21:56
said no.
00:21:57
Big consequences
00:21:58
from that decision, folks.
00:22:02
The former Dutch West Indies now called Indonesia,
00:22:05
this is after World War two,
00:22:08
was ruled by a,
00:22:09
leftist dictator named Sukarno,
00:22:12
who ruled in a coalition
00:22:15
with the communist.
00:22:17
Sukarno was coddled to the point that an
00:22:19
anti communist rebellion
00:22:22
that occurred there was put down
00:22:25
with US help
00:22:27
behind the scenes. And in Algeria,
00:22:31
Ben Bella achieved victory for his Marxist
00:22:35
National Liberation Front,
00:22:37
also the name adopted by
00:22:39
the South Vietnamese communist or the Vietcong. They're
00:22:43
they they also adopted that same name, the
00:22:45
National Liberation
00:22:47
Front. And then, Ben Bella's victory was achieved
00:22:50
with encouragement,
00:22:52
not resistance
00:22:53
from America. This is on Ike's watch, folks.
00:22:56
Indonesia,
00:22:58
Algeria, we're going down the list here.
00:23:01
In 1958,
00:23:02
a pro Western government fell in Iraq
00:23:06
to army officers with close ties to the
00:23:08
Soviet Union,
00:23:10
which allegedly
00:23:12
cost
00:23:13
the c I or caught the CIA
00:23:16
by surprise.
00:23:19
So,
00:23:20
and that's something we'll talk about quite a
00:23:22
bit more is
00:23:24
the CIA
00:23:26
either not being up to speed or being
00:23:28
on the wrong side
00:23:29
of almost every one of these communist confrontations
00:23:33
in the fifties, you hear just the opposite
00:23:36
narrative.
00:23:36
You hear Eisenhower was so tough on the
00:23:39
communist.
00:23:40
He was so smart.
00:23:42
He was able to lower the defense budget
00:23:44
because he was utilizing the CIA
00:23:48
so effective
00:23:49
in keeping the communist at bay and keeping
00:23:52
them
00:23:52
contained.
00:23:53
But, folks,
00:23:55
I think you're already seeing, and we're gonna
00:23:56
talk
00:23:57
after the break quite a bit more here.
00:24:00
I think you can see that this is
00:24:02
a lie.
00:24:03
This is just a lie. That's not what's
00:24:05
going on
00:24:07
in the Eisenhower administration. That's not what's going
00:24:09
on under the watch
00:24:11
of former ultra lefty,
00:24:14
John Foster Dulles.
00:24:17
Folks, I wanna remind you that securevote.news

00:24:38
You're listening to Hour of Decision on Liberty
00:24:41
News Radio. My name is Lou Moore, and
00:24:43
I will be right back to you
00:24:45
after the news.
00:24:47
Welcome back to Hour of Decision. My name
00:24:50
is Lou Moore. We've been talking about Eisenhower.
00:24:53
We're returning to our Eisenhower series and talking
00:24:56
about
00:24:57
the fake
00:24:59
policy of containment
00:25:01
that didn't work very well
00:25:03
in containing communism and didn't get at the
00:25:06
core of things, folks. And here is the
00:25:07
core of things.
00:25:09
This is a fact.
00:25:11
The Soviet Union was a paper tiger the
00:25:14
whole time.
00:25:16
If the credits from the Rockefellers,
00:25:18
from IBM, from all of these internationalist corporations
00:25:22
would not have been flowing into the Soviet
00:25:24
Union and technology would not have been flowing
00:25:27
into the Soviet Union,
00:25:29
they would have collapsed.
00:25:31
They weren't that strong.
00:25:32
They were relatively weak,
00:25:35
only
00:25:36
propped up by us, propped up incredibly
00:25:39
by Franklin Delano Roosevelt
00:25:42
during World War two with the lend lease
00:25:44
program that they didn't cut off anytime too
00:25:46
soon,
00:25:47
incredibly
00:25:48
aided in Asia
00:25:50
with,
00:25:51
elements of the Yalta agreement where they got
00:25:54
tons of material and funding,
00:25:57
just for Asia
00:25:58
when they weren't even fighting it. Russia never
00:26:01
really fought in Asia. They were supposed to
00:26:03
come into the war to help us against
00:26:05
Japan,
00:26:06
and they didn't come into the war until
00:26:08
it was essentially over.
00:26:11
But,
00:26:12
anyway, you know, that's
00:26:14
what's behind the scenes here. And and the
00:26:16
work of Anthony Sutton, his treatise on Soviet
00:26:19
technology,
00:26:20
his book, the best enemy money can buy,
00:26:23
explains all of that
00:26:25
to you, and and we saw it. It
00:26:26
was proven.
00:26:28
This theory is supposed to be a wild
00:26:29
conspiracy theory, but then it was absolutely proven
00:26:32
by Ronald Reagan
00:26:34
because in the nineteen eighties, this is exactly
00:26:37
what Reagan did. He cut off their credits
00:26:39
and collapsed the whole thing.
00:26:41
Phony.
00:26:42
Phony situation. We're gonna talk more about that.
00:26:45
I've I've discussed it some already
00:26:47
in other episodes
00:26:49
talking about the Fabian conspiracy in this country,
00:26:52
But I, will
00:26:55
discuss it at some length when we get
00:26:57
to Ronald Reagan because that is his finest
00:27:00
hour, folks, in my opinion,
00:27:02
in terms of,
00:27:05
his record in the White House. But we
00:27:07
are back with Dwight David Eisenhower
00:27:10
who is
00:27:11
working the problem from the internationalist,
00:27:14
Fabian socialist
00:27:16
point of view. And we're talking about the
00:27:17
internationalist
00:27:18
part today because we're talking about
00:27:21
his
00:27:22
fake policy of containment.
00:27:25
So problems in Indonesia,
00:27:29
you know, stalemated,
00:27:31
battle in Korea. He completely rejected MacArthur and
00:27:34
others
00:27:35
who said that the Chinese were weak.
00:27:38
If we would just oppose them with the
00:27:40
technology that we had and allow Chiang Kai
00:27:42
shek
00:27:44
to go back across,
00:27:46
the straits there in Formosa
00:27:48
and attack the mainland.
00:27:51
He didn't listen to them. So stalemate in
00:27:53
Korea, disgrace,
00:27:55
and nothing really fixed. Thousands and thousands of
00:27:58
American troops have had to stay right there
00:28:00
at the 38 Parallel from,
00:28:03
nineteen fifty three until
00:28:05
this exact hour,
00:28:07
this exact moment. They're still there, folks.
00:28:10
Then Vietnam
00:28:11
gave gave half of Vietnam to the communist
00:28:15
and didn't help in any way,
00:28:19
initially. We're gonna talk more about that in
00:28:22
a minute.
00:28:25
He hurt the situation there
00:28:28
and set up as a terrible situation
00:28:30
that, Kennedy,
00:28:32
and, and then Lyndon Johnson
00:28:35
really,
00:28:37
really had to do a dance,
00:28:40
and a suffered disaster.
00:28:43
Disaster. The whole country suffered disaster
00:28:45
in so many ways with the Vietnam War.
00:28:50
But in damage,
00:28:52
damage control mode,
00:28:55
I did send troops to Lebanon to protect
00:28:58
the Christian government there from the same wave
00:29:01
of pro Soviet Pan Arabism
00:29:04
that had engulfed Iraq.
00:29:06
It was a move that not only protected
00:29:09
the only Christian led government in the Mid
00:29:11
East,
00:29:12
protected it at that time,
00:29:14
but it catered to the growing strength of
00:29:16
the Israel lobby
00:29:18
and calmed our remaining Arab allies supplying us
00:29:22
with oil,
00:29:24
but worrying
00:29:25
that they might be next.
00:29:28
In two other instances, I did intervene. These
00:29:30
are the ones you always hear about
00:29:33
to check Soviet influence. In Iran,
00:29:36
at the behest of the British and powerful
00:29:39
oil interests,
00:29:40
The US overturned
00:29:42
election results
00:29:43
to put the Shah in power
00:29:46
in 1953
00:29:47
and then in Guatemala.
00:29:50
The United Fruit Company,
00:29:52
represented by Dulles' old law firm of Sullivan
00:29:55
and Cromwell
00:29:57
became alarmed at the regime of a Soviet
00:30:00
friendly
00:30:01
land confiscating
00:30:03
and duly elected,
00:30:05
president
00:30:06
Jacobo
00:30:08
Arbenz,
00:30:09
convincing Ike
00:30:11
to dispatch the CIA to organize a movement
00:30:14
to depose mister Arbenz.
00:30:17
And with the America, with the Republican led,
00:30:20
I should say conservative
00:30:21
led, China lobby breathing down his neck,
00:30:25
Ike finally released
00:30:27
Truman's ridiculous
00:30:29
blockade
00:30:30
of Taiwan.
00:30:31
Truman had Taiwan
00:30:33
blockaded
00:30:34
to prevent Chiang Kai shek from in invading
00:30:37
China.
00:30:38
It wasn't to it wasn't to protect
00:30:41
nationalist China.
00:30:43
It, it was to protect
00:30:46
Mao
00:30:47
from nationalist China from about a million troops
00:30:51
that were still housed and were still ready
00:30:53
combat hardened troops
00:30:55
that were on the island of Taiwan,
00:30:59
Island Of Formosa that they later called Taiwan,
00:31:04
you know, with the combination of the communist
00:31:06
revolution in China.
00:31:10
Ike also sent covert operatives to Tibet
00:31:14
to aid in a resistance there in 1959.
00:31:19
Unfortunately,
00:31:20
that was screwed up by
00:31:21
JFK and John Kenneth Galbraith,
00:31:24
and Tibet fell
00:31:26
and became a communist.
00:31:29
Just one more communist colony in the world.
00:31:34
Joseph Stalin died in March
00:31:37
1953,
00:31:38
right after I took office.
00:31:40
In East Germany,
00:31:43
Walter Ulbrich was the most unbending
00:31:46
of Stalinist leaders among the puppet states that
00:31:49
were established in Europe
00:31:51
after World War two.
00:31:53
While rumors flew about a liberalization
00:31:57
directed from Moscow, the onerous production quotas
00:32:01
that had been put on workers
00:32:04
remained in place.
00:32:06
A workers' revolt that began on 06/17/1954
00:32:11
at the project for a Stalin promenade
00:32:16
quickly spread across Berlin
00:32:18
and the entire nation.
00:32:21
As throngs were in the streets
00:32:24
shouting for their freedom
00:32:26
and destroying
00:32:27
every symbol of communism
00:32:30
they could get their hands on.
00:32:33
After the communist East German flag was pulled
00:32:37
from the Brandenburg
00:32:38
Gate,
00:32:39
a real revolution
00:32:41
seemed to be taking place
00:32:43
with over 1
00:32:45
Germans involved in hundreds of locations
00:32:49
across the country.
00:32:51
However,
00:32:52
the unarmed populace of East Germany was no
00:32:55
match
00:32:56
for local security forces that were soon backed
00:32:59
up
00:33:00
by Soviet tanks.
00:33:03
And while The US did nothing,
00:33:06
the rebellion was snuffed out, and 10
00:33:09
Germans who participated
00:33:10
in it
00:33:11
went to prison.
00:33:13
And so there's three
00:33:17
three elements of this story that I hold
00:33:20
Dwight David Eisenhower
00:33:22
responsible
00:33:23
for and
00:33:25
accuse him and convict him of.
00:33:28
One,
00:33:30
he allowed Richard Nixon
00:33:32
to travel around the country
00:33:35
promoting the liberation of the captive peoples. Two,
00:33:38
he sent John Foster Dulles into all these
00:33:41
foreign policy places
00:33:43
and all these business meetings,
00:33:45
both before and after the election,
00:33:48
preaching the same thing, liberation of these peoples.
00:33:52
And three,
00:33:53
I haven't mentioned this one, Eisenhower
00:33:56
allowed
00:33:57
radio free Europe,
00:33:59
a bastion of internationalism
00:34:01
then, and it still is now, far as
00:34:03
I know. Carrie Lake is in charge of
00:34:05
it now. She's trying to get a grip
00:34:07
on it.
00:34:09
He allowed
00:34:10
Radio Free Europe to broadcast
00:34:13
messages
00:34:13
day and night
00:34:16
into these countries which, were called,
00:34:19
after the great speech that, Winston Churchill gave
00:34:21
in Missouri, the iron curtain.
00:34:24
These,
00:34:26
nations behind the curtain
00:34:28
preaching to rebel and that we would be
00:34:31
there to support them.
00:34:34
Inexcusable
00:34:35
folks because what really happened
00:34:38
in East Germany, we're gonna talk about Hungary
00:34:40
in a moment. A lot of people don't
00:34:43
even know this story about East Germany. Most
00:34:46
people do know something about the Hungarian revolution,
00:34:49
rebellion and revolution that will happen three years
00:34:53
later. This brought out the anti communist resistance
00:34:56
and allowed it to surface
00:34:58
so it could be wiped out by the
00:35:00
communist.
00:35:02
Inexcusable.
00:35:03
Eisenhower
00:35:04
fingerprints all over it, folks.
00:35:08
About the same time
00:35:09
in May '19,
00:35:11
'94,
00:35:13
a most improbable event occurred
00:35:17
within the Soviet Union.
00:35:19
There was a brief for a brief period,
00:35:22
a successful uprising
00:35:25
in a Soviet
00:35:26
force labor camp
00:35:29
as recounted in Alexander Solzhenitsyn
00:35:31
Gulag
00:35:32
Archipelago,
00:35:34
Stalin's
00:35:35
death,
00:35:36
in 1953,
00:35:38
and the execution of the dictator's secret police
00:35:40
chief,
00:35:41
Beria,
00:35:43
gave hope to those captive to communism,
00:35:46
whether in slave labor camps or the occupied
00:35:50
nations of Eastern Europe
00:35:52
and those within the Soviet Union itself, like
00:35:55
in the colony of
00:35:58
Ukraine.
00:36:00
A place where, by the way,
00:36:02
six to seven million people were starved to
00:36:05
death
00:36:06
by the Bolsheviks
00:36:07
in the nineteen twenties and early nineteen thirties.
00:36:12
A confluence of events allowed it to happen
00:36:15
at the Kin gear
00:36:16
camp rebellion that is
00:36:19
in what today is the nation
00:36:22
of Kazakhstan.
00:36:25
Those included
00:36:26
Stalin's
00:36:27
those included Stalin's death and the subsequent
00:36:30
uprisings
00:36:32
in a number of camps.
00:36:35
And the introduction
00:36:36
of convicted
00:36:37
thieves into a camp dominated by Ukrainian political
00:36:41
prisoners,
00:36:42
including survivors
00:36:43
of the holocaust that befell Ukraine in the
00:36:46
nineteen thirties
00:36:47
at communist hands. In other words,
00:36:50
they were sending criminals in to try to
00:36:53
control
00:36:54
both from within the camp and without
00:36:57
those who were
00:36:59
trying to get free.
00:37:04
There was an ill fated strategy to allow
00:37:07
the prisoners a taste of freedom,
00:37:09
a day outside the camp on guard to
00:37:11
repair the wall,
00:37:13
which triggered a temporarily
00:37:14
successful rebellion.
00:37:17
Thieves were frequently introduced to these camps to
00:37:20
factionalize
00:37:20
the inmates and keep the less street tough
00:37:24
politicals,
00:37:26
in other words, the anti communist,
00:37:29
in line.
00:37:32
In this case, the thieves helped the rest
00:37:34
of the inmates arm themselves with shifts, so
00:37:37
it didn't work out for
00:37:39
the communist in that case. The the day
00:37:41
outside the camp gave the inmates a taste
00:37:43
of freedom they did not want to relinquish.
00:37:47
For several weeks,
00:37:49
the inmates
00:37:50
created their own government and currency.
00:37:53
This is within the Soviet Union, folks.
00:37:57
They performed marriages and enjoyed their own self
00:38:01
sustaining
00:38:02
society.
00:38:04
Finally, the tanks and regular army arrived to
00:38:07
deal death,
00:38:09
restore
00:38:10
order,
00:38:13
and
00:38:14
continue
00:38:14
the Soviet slave labor regime at Cangare.
00:38:20
And at that time, despite all this propaganda
00:38:23
and all this happy talk, there were crickets
00:38:27
from the supposedly
00:38:28
militant state department of John Foster Dulles
00:38:32
and the Eisenhower
00:38:34
administration.
00:38:35
Folks, what you're seeing is is history you
00:38:38
don't hear about.
00:38:40
People wanted to be free behind the iron
00:38:43
curtain. They wanted to be free within the
00:38:46
Soviet Union. There were so many opportunities
00:38:50
to stoke
00:38:52
internal dissension with our enemy,
00:38:55
and Eisenhower
00:38:57
did nothing.
00:38:59
Nothing.
00:39:00
Nikita Khrushchev
00:39:02
made his secret speech,
00:39:04
as it was known, denouncing Stalin
00:39:06
and the Stalin era of the Communist Party
00:39:09
in early nineteen fifty six.
00:39:12
Once the text of the speech leaked out
00:39:14
party hierarchies and governance,
00:39:17
any number of iron curtain countries was further
00:39:20
destabilized. In other words,
00:39:22
Khrushchev got up and said, yes. Stalin, terrible
00:39:24
guy. He's killing all kinds of people. He
00:39:26
lied all the time,
00:39:28
and he admitted a lot of the sins.
00:39:31
Of course, Khrushchev participated in a lot of
00:39:33
them. He was a butcher himself
00:39:35
as a commissar,
00:39:38
but he admitted a lot of the sins
00:39:41
of the communist government that had not ever
00:39:43
been admitted to before.
00:39:49
In Poland, labor unrest led to a protest
00:39:51
of over 100
00:39:53
people in Warsaw,
00:39:55
the sacking of the communist party headquarters,
00:39:58
and a siege of a number of government
00:40:00
buildings.
00:40:02
It was broken up the next day by
00:40:04
10
00:40:06
communist troops with 400
00:40:08
tanks.
00:40:09
As with other significant events of Ike's tenure,
00:40:13
the CIA was, quote,
00:40:15
caught by surprise. We just had no idea
00:40:18
about this.
00:40:21
Then in October
00:40:22
1956,
00:40:24
there was the tragedy
00:40:26
of the Hungarian
00:40:28
Revolution, the biggest tragedy of all
00:40:32
on Eisenhower's watch. Keep in mind, this is
00:40:34
the man, folks, that sent the eighty second
00:40:36
airport into Arkansas
00:40:40
to subdue
00:40:41
a sovereign state.
00:40:43
And the people of a sovereign state
00:40:46
in our country.
00:40:49
But that's not what he's doing overseas. He's
00:40:51
doing just the opposite.
00:40:54
Hungary seemed to be a perfect candidate
00:40:58
for liberation
00:40:59
after nightly
00:41:00
encouragement
00:41:02
from the voice of America,
00:41:05
which had moved people there to open insurrection.
00:41:10
This is the this is the
00:41:13
ultimate corruption and evil
00:41:16
of the Eisenhower administration, folks, is this right
00:41:19
here.
00:41:21
The Kremlin puppets ruling the Hungarians
00:41:24
were toppled from power.
00:41:26
Briefly,
00:41:28
the Hungarian revolt against communism in 1956
00:41:31
lasted
00:41:32
seventeen
00:41:33
days.
00:41:34
Its violent end illustrated that the verbal support
00:41:38
John Foster Dulles and others offered
00:41:41
in the past
00:41:42
had
00:41:44
absolutely nothing
00:41:46
behind it. They lied,
00:41:48
and some people believe they weren't just lying
00:41:51
folks. They actually were
00:41:53
complicit
00:41:54
in having these resistant groups
00:41:56
surface
00:41:58
so they could be slaughtered
00:42:00
by the communist, particularly
00:42:03
in Hungary.
00:42:05
Ike, as president, was as supportive of the
00:42:08
FDR
00:42:09
Yalta sellout,
00:42:12
giving all of Eastern Europe to the Soviet
00:42:15
Union as a buffer zone
00:42:17
as he was in his military days when
00:42:19
he was just
00:42:21
following
00:42:22
orders.
00:42:25
His biographer, Stephen Ambrose, states, Ike told his
00:42:29
National Security Council he did not want to
00:42:31
give the Soviets
00:42:33
any reason
00:42:35
to think The US might actually support the
00:42:37
freedom fighters new government.
00:42:40
In a few days, Hungarian patriots discovered the
00:42:43
American words over the voice of America
00:42:46
radio encouraging
00:42:47
their rebellion
00:42:49
were drowned out
00:42:50
by the roar of Soviet tanks
00:42:53
arriving in Budapest
00:42:56
to reenslave
00:42:58
them.
00:43:00
And so all this time, folks,
00:43:02
Ike is making one and treaty after another
00:43:05
for peace,
00:43:07
for new international
00:43:09
treaties,
00:43:09
and all the other crap we get from
00:43:12
internationalists.
00:43:13
That's also going on in the backdrop
00:43:16
of these opportunities
00:43:17
missed, these opportunities
00:43:19
ignored
00:43:21
to defeat communism,
00:43:23
to rid the earth of it.
00:43:25
The Soviet Union continued tyranny at home and
00:43:28
in their captive territories
00:43:31
and fomented discord and installation
00:43:33
of tyrants
00:43:35
around the globe.
00:43:37
This didn't stop Ike
00:43:39
and the smart set of internationalists
00:43:42
around him from working overtime to determine how
00:43:45
they could devise overtures
00:43:48
to the Soviet tyrants
00:43:49
to bring them into the rarefied
00:43:52
atmosphere
00:43:53
of diplomacy.
00:43:55
Ike's first year in office, he pronounced his
00:43:58
wish to give the UN
00:44:00
control of atomic energy
00:44:03
to guarantee a ban on nuclear weapons
00:44:06
while stating his desire
00:44:08
to
00:44:09
cut defense spending. And keep in mind, folks,
00:44:12
when Eisenhower
00:44:13
was on the board of the Carnegie Endowment
00:44:16
of International Peace, they declared
00:44:18
that their absolute
00:44:20
focus was doing everything they could do to
00:44:22
strengthen
00:44:23
the UN.
00:44:24
And that's why Alger Hiss was such a
00:44:27
perfect fit to be president at that time
00:44:30
of that board because that's what he was
00:44:32
all about
00:44:34
as a communist agent.
00:44:37
John Foster Dulles convinced Eisenhower to pursue meetings
00:44:41
for new for a nuclear test ban treaty
00:44:44
with the Soviets in 1957.
00:44:47
That's just a few months after this Hungarian
00:44:49
revolt, folks.
00:44:51
By 1958,
00:44:52
even Dulles,
00:44:53
even Dulles,
00:44:54
was openly opposing new defense spending,
00:44:58
stating his belief that we did not need
00:45:00
overwhelming
00:45:01
support
00:45:01
superiority
00:45:03
over our communist foes.
00:45:05
Meanwhile, Eisenhower talked about consolidating
00:45:08
the armed forces
00:45:10
and getting rid of the marine corps.
00:45:13
He didn't actually take any moves in that
00:45:16
direction.
00:45:17
In 1959,
00:45:18
Khrushchev visited America at Eisenhower's
00:45:22
invitation.
00:45:23
However, in the following year, just weeks before
00:45:26
a summit between cold war foes was about
00:45:29
to occur,
00:45:30
events transpired to prevent it from being successful.
00:45:34
A US high altitude,
00:45:36
u two spy plane was shot down over
00:45:39
The USSR in May 1960.
00:45:42
I claimed the plane was doing weather research
00:45:45
until the Soviets produced the pilot, a poor
00:45:48
fellow named Gary Powers,
00:45:50
and produced his confession
00:45:52
and photographic evidence of espionage.
00:45:55
The embarrassed Eisenhower was informed that the state
00:45:57
visit to the AOSSR
00:45:59
he had been so looking
00:46:02
for, looking forward to, excuse me,
00:46:04
had been canceled.
00:46:07
Meanwhile,
00:46:09
we just have a theme that continues during
00:46:11
the whole time that the CIA
00:46:14
is getting everything wrong.
00:46:17
I don't know if they're getting everything wrong,
00:46:19
folks, but they're they're coming up with the
00:46:21
wrong thing to do or not doing anything
00:46:24
at the times when they should have been
00:46:26
if there really was this
00:46:28
militant
00:46:29
anti communist
00:46:30
conservative
00:46:32
government and power in Washington DC.
00:46:36
The CIA got it wrong a lot under
00:46:38
the leadership of John Foster's brother, Allen
00:46:42
Dulles,
00:46:43
just months after Ike took office, the administration
00:46:46
was taken aback
00:46:47
by the explosion of the discontent that I
00:46:50
talked about that occurred in East Germany.
00:46:53
During the test ban negotiations,
00:46:55
the agency produced a row a report
00:46:58
stating in the past that it had grossly
00:47:01
exaggerated
00:47:02
the scope
00:47:03
of the Soviet effort. And this is also
00:47:05
a theme of the CIA. It didn't just
00:47:07
end here, folks. They were constantly
00:47:10
saying how powerful the Soviets were. We could
00:47:13
not confront them. Their economy was a powerhouse.
00:47:17
They had all these nuclear weapons.
00:47:19
This is constant.
00:47:21
And and Reagan just completely punctured that, folks,
00:47:24
completely punctured that in the nineteen eighties, but
00:47:27
there were even people admitting that they, the
00:47:30
CIA was pulling this crap
00:47:32
back under Eisenhower.
00:47:35
Eisenhower used this new CIA assessment to resist
00:47:38
calls by conservative
00:47:40
Republicans and Democrats
00:47:42
to increase military spending
00:47:44
as he sought to curry favor
00:47:46
with the Soviet Union.
00:47:49
And, you know, when we talk about Eisenhower's
00:47:52
warning about the military industrial
00:47:54
complex,
00:47:56
Just keep that in mind.
00:48:00
Alan Dulles was as surprised as anyone
00:48:03
when the Soviets launched Sputnik and set off
00:48:06
a panic in The United States that America
00:48:08
was falling behind the Soviet Union technologically.
00:48:12
Notably, Dulles
00:48:13
claimed he was unaware
00:48:16
of the communist
00:48:17
affiliation
00:48:18
of Fidel Castro.
00:48:21
As he claimed to be, he was, just
00:48:23
same claim he made about those Iraqi army
00:48:26
officers I mentioned earlier in this broadcast.
00:48:30
And this was despite mountains of readily available
00:48:33
evidence to the contrary folks. All kinds of
00:48:36
people were writing about Castro being a communist.
00:48:39
Robert Welch talked about it at great length.
00:48:41
They he was arrested in Colombia in 1948
00:48:44
as part of a failed communist revolution there.
00:48:48
Castro's complication is confiscation of the holding of
00:48:51
Americans' corporations,
00:48:52
though,
00:48:54
suddenly clarified Castro's affiliations for the American elite
00:48:58
and finally moved Dulles
00:49:00
to action.
00:49:02
Folks, this is the hour of decision. My
00:49:05
name is Lou Moore, and we're gonna continue
00:49:07
talking about Dwight David Eisenhower and his many,
00:49:10
many, many sins
00:49:11
next week.
