"Code of Silence" by Bruce Springsteen

There's a code of silence that we don't dare speak
There's a wall between us and a river so deep
And we keep pretending that there's nothing wrong
But there's a code of silence and it can't go on

Is the truth so elusive, so elusive as you can see
that it ain't enough baby
To bridge the distance between you and me
There's a list of grievance 100 miles long
There's a code of silence and it can't go on

Well you walk with your eyes open
But your lips they remain sealed
While the vows you made are broken
Beneath the truth we fear to reveal
Now I need to know now darlin'
I need to know what's goin' on so c'mon

Now you walk with your eyes open
But your lips they remain sealed
While the vows you made are broken
Beneath the truth we fear to reveal
I need to know now darlin'
I need to know what's goin' on so c'mon

There's a code of silence that we don't dare speak
There's a wall between us and a river so deep
And we keep pretending that there's nothing wrong
But there's a code of silence and it can't go on

And it can't go on

Hi folks. I'm Alan Watt and this is Cutting Through the Matrix on September 3rd, 2007. Sorry for the long intro but I think the wrong number was dialed to begin with. Please check into my website at cuttingthroughthematrix.com and also look into the European site. That's alanwattsentientsentinel.eu where you can get downloads of transcripts in the languages of Europe.

We are in a time of tremendous change, tremendous change. It's been going on through your parents lives and now our lives and the children that are growing up now will get the brunt of the changes and these changes come with what's called "technique" political technique. Technique of control where everything becomes systematized, systematized to a network of sciences all working in coordination together. This happens in all countries at the same time.

"Everybody Knows" by Leonard Cohen

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Hi folks. Alan Watt back here with Cutting Through the Matrix, and I don't plan what I'm going to say. I generally just think about it a few minutes before. Some things have been playing on my mind maybe all day long, and just before I came in the house this evening, I looked at the geese that were flying south pretty early actually and then thinking that some things don't really change; and yet, underneath them, everything is changing in this society in which we live, changing not just so gradually. It's going at fair clip now, yet most people are unaware of the changes because being human they adapt so quickly. We’re the most adaptable species on the planet. We adapt to being stopped with police on behalf of Mothers Against Drunk Driving, supposedly, and that gets me right back to technique.

Technique is not prefaced with psychological technique or psychotronic technique and all the other prefixes that we can use. It means simply the conglomeration of all of the techniques which were used simultaneously on the general public, because we've been living in the age of the mass-man and mass-management for a long time, and that really started and got underway heavily during the Industrial Era and it hasn't let go. The great world wars were total wars where total warfare was acceptable because the weaponry was designed to liquidate military targets and civilians at the same time. There was no distinction so total war became into being as an output or an outlet of the techniques which were used from the mass-man management.

Today, we're under mass health care and mass this and mass that – total bureaucratic strangleholds. A time that was predicted by those who understood these sciences and had been taught them. It's only the general public who are kept in the dark. They think they're individuals living in the best country in the world, whether it's across the water somewhere or in the U.S. or in Canada. That's all part of the technique you've been indoctrinated into believing because all governments treat us all the same way. They use propaganda and even during World War II the so called democratic countries found themselves using the same exploitation of emotion by propaganda use to try and drum up support to fight their enemy. This is the Hegelian Dialectic, which is an automatic thing as well as a planned thing. When you understand that what you fight against you become, then you understand the process, "the law of nature" as they called it in much more ancient times. You can direct it and control it and we have been controlled for a long, long time.

Coming out of the medieval era we truly did belong to a simplistic society where everything was in its place and everybody was in their place, and that was a common expression even in Britain when I was young was "mind your place." Your class system dictated it to you and you didn’t try and rise above it. That was a common thing to hear not so long ago. The whole idea of the feudal system was a hierarchy from the king down, and above the king was the heavens and a god and angels and a hierarchy of angels; and as above, so below. You had the same system on earth from the king down to his barons and lords and all the rest of it down to the peasant. That's how it was structured on those premises, very simplistic. You didn’t have to know anything, find out anything. It was all given to you in little stories from the Bible. That's all you would be taught.

People are kept in ignorance of other countries at the bottom as well. So much so, that when the Spanish Armada came in to Britain and many of the ships floundered through a storm onto the shores of Britain, the Spanish were actually being hung. But along with the Spanish were also monkeys, monkeys that were just the pets of sailors; because the Englishmen have been drummed up so much, the peasantry, that they believed the propaganda that these enemy Spaniards looked like monkeys and they hung the pet monkeys. That's what propaganda can do to the mob.

They always target their enemy and dehumanize them. We saw this in World War II where every Japanese guy had the thick glasses and buckteeth. Same idea on every poster. Look up posters. There's actually websites there where you can find them and you'll see how your government can smear any people when they want to target them.

This gets me back to technique again. Technique is something which is discussed in high bureaucratic positions because all decisions in governments now are to do with the mass-man. The politician too gives his spiels out to the mass man with all his promises that you're going to have utopia tomorrow. All you have to do is vote for him and magically it will appear, and these are the lies that the public are trained to want to hear in fact. Most of them do want to hear that, that everything's going to be fine in a patriarchal type society where big daddy promises to make it better. If you cut your knee, he'll kiss it and it's all better, just like a little child; and that's the simplicity and how ridiculous the whole system is in its simplicity. It works for children and here it is supposedly working for adults, because we came out of the age of very communal living of the feudal system, the simplistic age, into an age of every man for himself. The bonds of the old community were torn apart as vast amounts of people moved into the cities for work. They were thrown off the land in fact through acts of parliament throughout Europe and they didn't have anyone to fall back on. They had to find out fast for themselves to survive. Survival was a tough thing back in those days.

The plague-carts that used to run in the big cities in Manchester and Birmingham, the factory cities that were thrown up, went round everyday just to collect the day who died of malnutrition and overwork and all the rest of the stuff because there were no safety laws in those days and you'd be on your feet 16 hours minimum per day, and that went for women and children. That was when Great Britain was at its height with the Empire.

From that age, we came into short period of individuality. Individualism began to take over and that in turn created crisis because for the first time people dared to ask about their institutions, the institutions of government, of religion that was hand in glove with government and had been for centuries. They questioned everything and many good books were put out during the early 1900’s up to the mid-1950’s and then the governments learned the scientific forms of technique; psychological technique primarily to start getting the people back under their thumb as a mass conglomerate. They studied primitive tribes and found out that tribes will push someone out of their tribe if they don't conform or if they show different behavior or simply don't agree with the rest of them on something. People unfortunately like everyone else to become like themselves. The primitive tribe does not tolerate individuality very well, so here we are progressing supposedly through a new phase of individuality and yet the governments themselves out of necessity, because governments must always go this way when they're collecting taxes and creating more bureaucratic positions and levels above the people, can only treat everyone as a mass and not as individualistic.

That's the problem today. We've been put back into this mass grouping, while at the same time we're told we're individuals. This ends up being totalitarian ultimately because it can't go any other way. We find that with the rise of the police that's always the first symptom of the totalitarian governments. The police becomes to embody the whole fabric of society. They're like the badge of society, because they themselves are not studying their own techniques of their tenants of laws their rules. They have committee meetings on what to do next and next and next, and every police chief wants to be promoted above his present position; and when he looks at his last police chief that was there, he'll say well this guy did so many right checks per year. Let's double it, triple it or whatever, and so you end up with them all with their little new formulas of how to get more and more done. Sort of ‘make work projects’ for policemen and this is augmented on television with various statistics always contradicting each other, with rises in crime and others will tell you that the crime rate is actually dropping.

When there was a shooting in Toronto, as a good example a few years ago, this young white blonde girl was getting married. She was shot in a restaurant and the media went into the panic mode right away (or to panic the public I should say), and it was overblown. They did a survey in Ontario, Canada to see if people had been affected by this one shooting and they interviewed, they showed on the media all the ones who were terrified now to go outside their doors. In a city of millions of people, suddenly they were terrified to go out of their doors because the media had, just like psychic driving, repeated this instance over and over and over again until people were becoming neurotic. That's the technique of mass manipulation that goes on in our society. I'll be back after these messages.

Hi folks. Alan Watt back here with Cutting Through the Matrix. I'm going through some of the psychology that's used on the masses to really imprint you from a very early age that your country is right, regardless of what country in fact you live in. They all have their national anthems. They have their school songs. They have their propaganda. It's an interesting term, propaganda, for pagan, you know, pro-pagan-da – interesting term, which is very, very old again in itself. We're given this conditioning so that we automatically respond to these anthem songs and favorite tunes, mainly in time of war when your leaders want you to go off and kill someone or rob someone else, always for what appears to be good reason until you dig a little bit deeper. It doesn't take much digging usually to find out it's to do what wars have always done. They're economic wars so that a few will be benefited.

It's not just a few. Today, it's corporations. We’ve been living in the world of corporations internationally for a long, long time. These are corporate wars; and fascism is in fact corporate warfare really carried to an extreme. We find that the biggest companies in the U.S. and in Britain and elsewhere funded I.G. Farben, which funded the whole war machine of Germany for World War II. It was IT&T that made the Focke-Wolf fighter for Germany. You had GM and Ford in there who got bombed towards the end of the war and they sued the U.S. and Britain for bombing their factories; and in the late '70’s, they won their case and the taxpayers of Britain and the U.S. and Canada had to pay up for all the damages. That's business, folks. War is business, you see, and we all pay for it over and over again.

This is kept from the public, of course, because we're supposed to think that things happen spontaneously and we all go off to fight just bad men; and that's what George Orwell was warning us all about, how these techniques are used on us over and over again. He was actually asked in the book "1984," Winston was asked, "Who are we fighting today?" Because they kept changing targets from East Asia and West Asia, and signing agreements and treaties with one and fighting the other and then breaking it and reversing it. That's what we've been doing now in this third world war that we're presently in, because, remember, it started with Gulf War I in fact. Gulf War II supposedly the bad man was based in Afghanistan so we went off to fight in Afghanistan looking for the man in the cave, the cave man, only to find out later we just swapped the sides and put them on Iraq instead. Then, out in "The Enquirer", George Bush actually said to "The Enquirer" to the actual lawyers he said, "I never said that Saddam Hussein was behind 9/11. He said he was just a bad man and the world's better off without him."

That was the excuse supposedly to get into Iraq. However, it was much more than just getting in. It was nothing to do with Saddam Hussein, it was to grab the oil and standardize the Middle East because the totalitarian system we're in is a global system. It has been for a long time and everyone must be standardized under the one system. Before that, communism was a technique used. It wouldn't have mattered if it was Nazism that won or communism in Europe because both of them use the same techniques to achieve the same goal, and that's the takeover of one country after another brainwashing the first generation of children who grow up thinking its all natural, creating the same standardized system throughout Europe. That was the goal of communism.

When the American troops when into Vietnam it was the greatest thing that ever happened for the elitists and the globalists because they could not unite all the warring tribal factions inside Vietnam. The communist group was a small group but it was the best-organized group, so when the Americans went in, the communist had all the ability for propaganda and they became the main party. Therefore, the U.S. helped unite Vietnam that's now a member of the United Nations and it's a democratic country, meaning that it works and has the same rules as all the other international companies called "countries."

That's what wars are for, standardization purposes; and when you can't get people to be cohesive, you get a common enemy that invades them. That pulls them together. Out of it comes a dialectic where they become the same as you. The Spartans found that out a long time ago when they successfully held off the monied boys who'd taken over other countries and were intent in bringing Sparta under the same rule, but eventually Sparta became the same as the ones they were fighting and they adopted the same techniques. The Hegelian process always works that way. You become that which you hate in the long run.

Governments always use a facade of legitimacy when they want to attack someone. You find that with Philip IV of France, for instance, when he got teams of monks and clerics to go through the laws to give him permission to attack who he wanted to attack and do what he wanted to do. We find the same with Richelieu, who gave "The Theory of Divine Rights of Kings" to justify his king doing what he wanted to do. Back after the following messages.

Hi folks. Alan Watt back here with Cutting Through the Matrix. I'm trying to explain a little disjointedly how we got to where we are and where we're going. It's to do as I say with the building of corporations. Go back into the history of the British East India Company to how far back it goes. You'll find that even Elihu Yale, who was one of the founding members, the guy who put the money up set up Yale University where he stated this would turn out the future leaders of this country and ensure they'd never lose control through their generations. That's how far ahead these families and money plans their future.

We live in a society that didn't simply evolve to where we are. Nothing in the structure evolves to where we are, whether it's the hula-hoop or roller skates or whatever is given to you for the present fads, they're thought out in advance. Many ways of passing your time are thought out in advance by high institutes, things that keep you preoccupied and stop you from thinking.

In the 1800’s when they knew through all the mass rising movements that were coming up, the Chartist Movements, the public would eventually demand rights and the managers of all the big factories were terrified that time on their hands might lead to nefarious deeds like discussing their grievances amongst them and who knows where that would lead eventually. Therefore they gave them all kinds of activities when they did give them 10 hour working days and weekends as well, they gave them all these kinds of hobbies and sports. That's when they gave them the sports and started off soccer clubs and so on to keep them occupied, because idle time and idle hands causes mischief apparently and communication might develop, communication of all the problems that they had and the grievances, and they might demand more and more and who knows where that might lead.

Then they brought out the penny novels because they had to give them a basic education so that they could at least work in the factories, read plans and communicate with each other with notes et cetera and read instructions for the machines, so they brought out penny novels to keep them occupied with fiction rather than give them non-fictional works. They didn’t want them to be too well educated, you see, and nothing really has changed. The educational standards have plummeted for many years now deliberately. John Dewey himself, who wasn't the founder of the present education system in the Americas but he took over from Manning, he actually said in his own books that all divisiveness, all history that had divisiveness in it causes conflicts between different peoples who have been exploited by one or the other, had to be removed from the history books; and it wasn't just for the Americas it was for Europe as well. That's something I found out very early on. They had been doing it long before I was born, because when I checked with the reference libraries and checked very old books, I could not believe how much history they'd gotten rid of, including who perpetrated what on whom and why and all the rest of it. Who benefited. All removed from the history books to give us this wonderful view of the past that never existed.

It was also interesting, the big foundations paid novelists from the 1800’s on to write dramatic wonderful childhood stories such as "Ann of Green Gables," where you had this wonderful upbringing. When you read those books you think “I guess everyone was the same,” and it was all part of a propaganda exercise to change our view of reality and to make us think that the ogres that ran the system in the 1800’s and 1900’s were no longer in existence or perhaps they'd devolved themselves and become better people. That's how it's done. Most of our history is in fact fiction; at least the stuff that you buy on the regular bookstore shelves.

At the other side of it we have the bizarre and the fantastic, because the New Age religion which is being pushed to take over from the old, not by an act of any deity or god but an act of think tanks at the top. Think tanks employ people like Mikhail Gorbachev who said in his own book that they would create a new religion for the New Age, and in the same book, he mentions he himself is an atheist. It's called "Towards a New Civilization." You should read it. And they did and suddenly all the New Age books flooded the bookstore shelves and I know people who are Wiccans and I asked them where they got all their rituals and so on from, and they told me, from the bookstores. I said, does it ever occur to you that these books that suddenly appeared by the masses and all the religious, where bibles and so on used to be, are maybe getting put their deliberately? They’re so cheap as well and it hadn't occurred to them, of course. Like most folk, they take everything for granted. They don't do much thinking; and sure enough, all these books suddenly have all rituals and so on that are all recent things and made up, but they don't know that.

Like all religions, when you show them the evidence they don't want to know it either. That's the beauty of religion. It's unverifiable belief and it can't be proven by anyone, therefore it could be argued forever. Nothing, as I say, in your culture or society or the age you live in is there by chance. They also knew that the fringe of all societies, there is a fringe group. Fringe groups can be very useful at times, the radical types, the ones who are left out on the fringes who can't really fathom things. They can be easily led and so they gave them a lot of science fiction type books, eventually dropping the title science fiction but using the same formats and they make the people believe anything.

Remember that Lord Bertrand Russell said himself, and he worked for the Tavistock Institute and was responsible for many of the formats that are now coming down today in society. He said, "There's no nonsense so arrant that it cannot be made the creed (that means the belief) of the vast majority by adequate government action." In other words, they can make the public believe anything eventually with enough propaganda, enough sources all seemingly unrelated saying the same thing; and they take years to build up some of the fallacies that they're building today. Years and years go into it, coupled with special departments within even the secret services that work for government.

We know for instance that some of the radical feminists leaders in the United States that started off the New Age as well were funded by the CIA from the beginning and the magazine that they put out. Nothing again is there by chance. You have to question everything in this society because all segments of society are catered to by the think tanks, and the think tanks at the top are all connected together. You have specialized divisions and subdivisions for different categories of peoples to make sure that everyone gets their dose of indoctrination, belief systems and all the rest of it. We tend to forget that before Christianity the world had been run for thousands of years by paganism and that worked just as good.

Paganism was a mass religion. You had a choice of picking which deity was your favorite within a certain amount, sort of a limited choice given to you, but as long as you sacrificed to it and gave obeyance to it, you get along okay in society. If you didn't believe in it, they'd kill you. They'd stone you to death because that's the nature of the mob, and that came into Christianity unfortunately the same way. The Roman Church adopted all of the old paganism they had been at war with and gradually over time became the very church embodying it all. That's why it's called universal. It took all the old religions and put them into one. The son who dies for the father or to save the world is nothing new because Osiris was doing it every year in Egypt for a long, long time before. Osiris, the father of the sun or Ra, gave his blood – shed his blood at sundown. The sky turned red everyday and he saved it because he loved the world. He did it that way.

That's how religion is used very effectively to control vast amounts of people without them ever knowing what's really going on. When you're taught a religious belief you will then bounce all your experiences in life back to that religion for verification and you'll try and fit it into a pigeon hole of your religion and it must fit one way or another. It's like putting something that's too big in a box. You've got to stamp it in to make it fit and that's how it sounds so ludicrous to outsiders who are not believers in that same religion. That's also why religion you'll notice is written in the dialectic, because for every statement there's an opposing statement, and that's why they fight amongst each other so much.

Every single statement has an opposing statement contained within, by design, because underneath it all in the esoteric it's simply the two natures of man at war all down through the ages. The one who can control himself, the idealized man, which has never existed or the base man who simply grabs and takes what he wants and envies et cetera. That's what the dialectic is within man himself. That’s why you have the opposing statements in all holy books.

If you go back to the Buddha, the same idea. The Buddha came along supposedly we're told anyway. There's no verification he actually existed and said, “this works for me, why don't you try it?” but he wouldn't go into metaphysics. The later disciples mentioned that. They weren't happy because he wouldn't touch metaphysics and he came to actually break the bondage of the belief in reincarnation. This ‘eternal circular hell’ as he called it had to be broken because the people were under the slavery of the Brahmans where they had no choice. They believed in predestination. They'd been taught to believe in it. This was your place working in this field your whole life and you couldn't do anything about it, except that, once again, if you break it you'll break the karma and you'll come back as some lower animal. However, once he was dead 200 years later, just like Constantine did for the Christians, they had a meeting with all the new schisms of Buddhism and they set down the tenants for Buddhism, the law for Buddhism. They brought back into it all the old Hinduistic beliefs that the founder tried to break; and that again is the nature of man.

However, Christianity for the first time there was a hope of individual salvation. There was a hope that the individual for the first time could go by his conscience against the government that conflicted with what he thought his deity wanted. That had never happened before in paganism, and yet the base man always conforms in a group to each other and then they go after the religion with the most laws, and so they adopted primarily the Old Testament because most folk in religion simply want laws and rules set out for them. They don't want to do much thinking. Therefore, Christianity pretty well died fairly early on as far as a revolutionary force and that's what it initially was. You'd never know that listening to the conservative Americans of today.

I get calls from people in Europe who haven't had the same indoctrinations in religion or tradition that the U.S. has had and they'll mention some of the shows I'm on and how the people seem so religious and it becomes confusing. I tell them that you can only go by what you can verify for yourself, anything else is belief; and religion, regardless of the religion it happens to be, is unverifiable. When it's a mass religion where people go together and do all the same rituals together and everything is together, then it's a social religion. People like social units. They like everything to be the same as themselves. Dress and say the same things. Have the same parrot phrases they come out with. It makes them feel safe and secure to have others the same as themselves. That's primarily the function of religion. Yet, people who have no idea and haven't read the histories of their own religion are easily manipulated by the psychopaths in power today.

We find religious terminology being used to motivate people like a conditioned response, which it is in fact. When they talk about evil empires and Ronald Reagan took over and he called different countries the evil empire. The Soviet Union was the evil empire. Colonel Kaddafi for a while was the evil empire, the embodiment of the devil. That was to get all those in Christianity in America to back him and it happened very well. It worked very well, he was a great guy for using these terms and invoking God on the enemies and that's what it really is. It's invoking your deity, very primitive thing to cause a wrath on your enemies and to back you up for what you intend to do to them. Religion has many, many functions.

What we have today, getting back to technique, are scientists who understand all of this very, very well. Aldous Huxley in many of his talks to the Ivy League universities used the term often, "technique." He was talking about psychological and behavioral control of mass groups or whole nations and eventually a world in fact. That's what the whole Tavistock idea was about to initially use propaganda to persuade and then use other techniques to reinforce that on top of it, until you had whole nations who responded automatically to catch phrases and buzzwords, just like the Christians had done for centuries when their leaders wanted to go off and pillage abroad. We forget the Crusaders used the same thing. They had to go and save the land of Jesus, even though Jesus was long, long gone. They used that as an excuse to go and plunder the Middle East, and plunder they did because booty was the way that the knights paid themselves. They stole everything. That was called "plunder and booty and loot" and it was quite acceptable in those days, but they went under the banner of Christianity. The Knights Templars were no different. They were not a good bunch of guys at all. They were a secret society that eventually merged with the Hashshashins or the Ishmaelis, the guys who were a much older secret society than themselves, and we're taught all the tricks of the trade from those guys. I'll be back after the following messages.

"Everybody Knows" by Leonard Cohen

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost

Hi folks. Alan Watt back here with Cutting Through the Matrix. I'm talking about the techniques that are used on us over and over again, always with the same high sounding words and in a language that the public can kind of understand or they've been conditioned to understand, but always for an ulterior purpose. It's interesting that the Bin Laden family, the family were lifted out the day after 9/11 out of the U.S. because they'd been there in New York for a meeting with the Bush Company because they own the largest construction business on the planet to do with underground bunkers for wealthy families across the planet.

Isn't it amazing that one of them is a president who's in a school supposedly when 9/11 goes down and the father – the ex-president and the head of the CIA was at a business meeting with the Laden family in New York at the same time. What's the chances of that happening in a population of seven billion people on the planet? What’s the odds of that? Just incredible and yet this sort of stuff we're fed and we munch our chips away and drink the beer and think nothing of it. This is incredible really what's going on to get the world into a huge world war – a war to change all of society and to get rid of individuality once and for all. The biggest problem they've ever had is a thinking individual and they plan to treat us all the same. Go through the same conveyor belt. Go through the same machinery and all be exactly the same standardized world. That's what they call their utopia. Their utopia is our hell in fact – a standardized world where you can't make a decision for yourself because the state will be doing it all for you.

The Soviets were exactly the same. They would pick children at school very young and tell them what they were going to be trained in, in their schooling, and that's all they were to be taught. They didn't get taught extra subjects that had nothing to do with their particular indoctrination. That was the choice in the Soviet Union, and the west looked upon that greedily because they thought if only we could use that same system here how fantastic it would be, so they came up with their own versions of it and they have them implemented into the educational system now. They want efficiency at all costs and they want a society where no one will exist without serving the state. That's the world they want, a world where they, infirm, the sick, those who do not come up to their new standards will be simply eliminated eventually. That's the system and it all comes under what they call at the top "technique," the technique of control, and we're all going through it now. That's why there's so much confusion. The public are punch drunk with conflicting information put out deliberately to keep them in this strange sort of mindset where they can't figure things out.

Well, that's about it for tonight. From Hamish and myself up here in Ontario, Canada, it's good night and may your god or your gods go with you.
