Sleepers and Messiahs

By Eowyn @DrEowyn

Thanks to our dear friend and frequent commenter, JosephBC69, I remembered a conversation with Charlotte Iserbyt about the  Soviet informer and KGB propagandist, Yuri Bezmenov, who defected to Canada in 1970 and embarked on a campaign to educate people in the West about the true nature and methods of Soviet Communism.  According to Wikipedia, he wrote and lectured extensively under the name Tomas David Schuman. 

 The Pravda article and Joseph’s comment are here.

Points to ponder after watching the video:

In 1960 during the height of the Cold War, Stanley Ann Dunham met British citizen from Kenya, Barack Obama, Sr. at the University of Hawaii.  Both were enrolled in a class to learn Russian.

The Dunham family’s close friend and Obama’s mentor during his teens, was avowed communist, Frank Marshall Davis.

Obama Senior attended several institutions of higher learnind during his checkered career.  Taking classes in Russian in 1960 suggests an  intent to attend Patrice Lumumba University, newly founded in 1960.

According to an fascinating old article at the Baltimore Sun, “Moscow’s academic nightmare University in decline: Patrice Lumumba University once was one of the jewels of Moscow”

MOSCOW — In the old days, the typical student at Patrice Lumumba University would be a young African, someone who could hope to become his country’s first native-born doctor or engineer after graduation. The new graduate would be expected to take communism home with him and preach of its glories.

Patrice Lumumba University — alma mater of the terrorist “Carlos” and of hundreds of men and women who are government officials throughout the Third World — now is a cheap and not so choosy institution. A mathematics professor despondent over the school’s decline describes it as where “the best of the world’s worst students” come for an easy degree.”

This Baltimore Sun article is longish; but, well worth the read, if only to speculate which current World Leaders attended in it’s heyday.  Africa is a major player in Agenda 21, supporting all the initiatives to redistribute the wealth of the West to their own corrupt governments.
