Social Crediters are agreed on the folly of attempting to give political freedom to synthetic African "nations", consisting in many cases of mutually hostile tribes. Political freedom is no more than a name if unaccompanied by economic freedom, and the latter is completely impossible under the present debt system.
Neither African nor European will benefit from a premature grant of political freedom. Africa will lose ordered administration and law, while the natives will be exposed to unrestricted exploitation, and Europe will lose control of the source of vital raw materials; there is very real danger of a return to barbarism in Africa, or complete economic and political control by the Dollar Plutocrats of New York and their Communist allies in Moscow. United Nations meddling is acting as a lever to push the colonial powers out. There seems to be no thought of responsibility for maintaining civilized standards. Lenin foresaw the conquest of Eastern Europe as a first step towards world Communism, and Stalin was assisted to prepare for this by American help at Yalta. Step two was to be the ousting of the Colonial powers from their territories in Asia and Africa; this process is far advanced, and has once again been assisted by American pressure and a policy of unreasoned and rabid anti-colonialism. Step three is to be a Communist drive to conquer a Europe enfeebled by the loss of its sources of raw materials. U.S. sponsored amalgamations in Europe are intended to assist. All patriots must challenge this betrayal of our civilization and liberties.
