Listening to Pauwels makes one realize the scope of the lies we've been fed about the Second World War, fascism and democracy, and how myths related to previous wars need to be upheld in the mainstream discourse to satisfy never ending war propaganda needs.
In a speech held December 15 in Montreal, he explained that World Wars I and II were all about crushing mass revolutionary movements.
The myth of the Good War
Every time Westerners' approval for war is required, the myth of the good war surfaces: the Second World War was a good war, a necessity to quench Hitler's blood thirst. Pauwels tears this myth apart, uncovering the vicious nature of the western elite.
The reasons for the US involvement in World War II lie in the social-economic conditions of the time, not in an outpouring of compassion destined to save humanity from fascism. The US elite was actually in favor of fascism, a very convenient tool to crush the mass revolutionary movement embodied by the Russian Revolution and the USSR.
WWII was in fact a continuity of WWI. "We are always told that WWI started with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, but it's not true", Pauwels says. It is indeed a well established myth carried on by various sources, whether history is written by "thousands of eminent experts, scholars, and leaders" like in Encyclopedia Britannica, or by just about anybody, like in Wikipedia:
The outbreak of warBoth WWI and WWII had two dimensions: the vertical dimension, namely the rivalry between empires, and the horizontal one, class warfare, Pauwels explains.
With Serbia already much aggrandized by the two Balkan Wars (1912 - 13, 1913), Serbian nationalists turned their attention back to the idea of "liberating" the South Slavs of Austria-Hungary. Colonel Dragutin Dimitrijević, head of Serbia's military intelligence, was also, under the alias "Apis," head of the secret society Union or Death, pledged to the pursuit of this pan-Serbian ambition. Believing that the Serbs' cause would be served by the death of the Austrian archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir presumptive to the Austrian emperor Francis Joseph, and learning that the Archduke was about to visit Bosnia on a tour of military inspection, Apis plotted his assassination. (World War I, Encyclopedia Britannica)
The immediate trigger for war was the 28 June 1914 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary, by Yugoslav nationalist Gavrilo Princip in Sarajevo. This set off a diplomatic crisis when Austria-Hungary delivered an ultimatum to the Kingdom of Serbia,[10][11] and international alliances formed over the previous decades were invoked. Within weeks, the major powers were at war and the conflict soon spread around the world. (World War I, Wikipedia)
These wars were actually the best way for the western elite to cope with the ever growing revolutionary and democratic movements fueled by dire economic conditions and which threatened the established order.
Comment: And so it is today. All across the U.S., and indeed the globe, people are protesting and growing more and more upset with how the elites are running things. So it should be no surprise that we see wars sprouting up, in Iraq, Syria, Ukraine, and quite possibly Russia. This is nothing new for the elite, they continually go back to the same playbook for controlling revolutionary movements. If only the public was able to see the pattern and not fall for patriotic and nationalistic propaganda, perhaps the efforts by the elites to control the human population would fail.
In Nietzsche's view for example, Pauwels says "war was the solution against revolution, since in a war, there are no discussions, like there is in a democracy. In a war, the minority, the elite, decides and the majority, the proletarians, obey."
For members of the elite like Malthus, "the system could not be the cause of poverty since they were profiting from it. The cause of poverty was the poor: there were too many of them. Therefore the solution to poverty and threatening revolutionary movements was simply to eliminate poor people and what better solution than war to kill poor people?"
After WWI though, "revolution was no longer a simple idea but rather something concrete: the Soviet Union." That's when fascism came to the rescue. "Fascism was the instrument used by the elite to further the objectives of 1914, namely put an end to revolutions and communism."
Communism and socialism were gaining worldwide momentum after WWI. "The German industrial and financial elite wished to crush the revolutionary movement and destroy the Soviet Union. Adolf Hitler was their instrument."
According to popular belief Western leaders were defending democracy, engaged in a war against Germany to save humanity from fascism and the US involvement in the war led to the downfall of Hitler's war machine. Nothing is further from the truth. "Hitler was supported by other European countries and the US because they wanted him to destroy the USSR, the cradle of the revolution." The exact opposite occurred: it was the USSR that defeated Nazi Germany, losing over 20 million souls in the battle.
The US even recruited the best Nazi scientists, technicians and engineers to work for them after the war. That piece of history called Operation Paperclip (picture below) has yet to find its way in Encyclopedia Britannica.
WWII was the victory of American Imperialism, a term which is rarely used today even if it best describes the reality the world has been living in ever since.
But even more surprising is the surviving myth that we are going to war to save the world from evil dictators or terrorists and that the western world fights for freedom and democracy. Thanks to the "stenographers of power", the tactic is still reliable and used several decades later.

The Rulers Known As 'The Global Elite a.k.a. The Powers That Be. The plan which they made together, which is the likeness of their spirit, ignorant darkness. Their luxury is bitter and their beauty is depraved. And their luxury is deception and their trees are godlessness and their fruit is deadly poison and their promise is death. The root of this tree is bitter and its branches are death, its shadow is hate and deception is in its leaves, and its blossom is the ointment of evil, and its fruit is death and desire is its seed, and it sprouts in darkness. The dwelling place of those who taste from it is Hades, and the darkness is their place of rest.
While it may be true that the Elites wanted Russia destroyed then as now there were vastly different reasons for the need for destruction.One overriding need was the elimination of witnesses who knew the identity of most of the behind the( scenes) initiators of the " revolution" in Russia! The Bolshevics were pre- dominantly of the Jewish persuasion and the "leaders" of the revolution were all Zionist Jews.This was the reason why the Czar,Nicholas had to be murdered,even after he instituted all of the so called reforms and " changes" that was asked of the Russian monarchy!The Zionist were already in most if not all of the key government positions at this time in Russia.The Zionist led openly by a man named Chiam Weismann who knew very well that the Jews were not being persecuted in Russia! The war which is still being waged was primarily started to eliminate witnesses who could testify who the initiators were and who was behind the murder of Ferdinand.It was the Zionist Council of Elders led in the open by Weismann and funded by the Rothschild and many others.Russia is now under seige because of this and the refusal of Putin to abdicate the Soverignty of Russia to the puppets of the Lords of Entropy the true Masters behind the Elites of Europe and the US of A.
