Western Civilization Died on the Somme River a Century Ago

[Editor's Note: A few months ago, I had a conference call with ZS Livingstone and a former Army sniper who had killed a lot of unsuspecting people in Iraq and was trying to cope with the stress and guilt of causing so many deaths, even though these events took place many years ago. He couldn't sleep and didn't know what to do to feel peaceful again. The spirits of those he had killed were not allowing him to escape the karmic debt he had incurred. We told him he had to pray to those people and ask for their forgiveness; to tell those souls that he did what he did because he thought it was his job and that he didn't know better; and that he had to pay down the debt by doing something to help in the opposite direction - by supporting and defending the priceless value of human life. He said he felt better after talking with us and he hasn't called us since. Will each new generation never learn the folly of militarism and the psychopathy of those who direct that killing enterprise?]

Masonic Mass Murder on the Somme 100 Years Ago

Western Civilization Died on the Somme a Century Ago

On July 1, 1916, General Douglas Haig, a Freemason, began the Battle of the Somme which by November resulted in the death of one million Christian, British patriots in their prime. Fathers, sons, husbands, brothers, lovers. War is a ruse by which the globalist satanic elite kills patriots under the guise of national duty.  

"When we started to fire, we just had to load and reload. They went down in their hundreds. We didn't have to aim, we just fired into them. " German machine gunner.

About 10 million soldiers died in battle on both sides in World War One, one of the costliest wars in history.  The needless slaughter in trench warfare is usually portrayed by the Masonic-controlled media and education system as an unintended consequence. 

In fact, these wars are orchestrated by the Illuminati Jewish bankers and their Masonic minions to kill Christians in order to degrade Western civilization in advance of the Satanic NWO now clearly manifesting itself. (See, World War One- First Christian Holocaust) Ritual human sacrifice to their god Moloch may also be a factor.

All wars are designed to enrich and empower the bankers while destroying and demoralizing humanity. Warmongering "patriotism" is a ruse. The sooner gullible non-Satanists stop falling on a sword, the better.

I'm going to focus on the Battle of the Somme, one of the biggest battles of the first world war. My information is based on John Laffin's British Butchers and Bunglers of World War One, (1988, p. 63ff.)

Both General Douglas Haig, Commander in Chief, Western Front,  and his principal co-planner Sir Henry Rawlinson were Freemasons. The Somme offensive ("The Big Push") was intended to end the stalemate and win the war. The Allies had 700,000 men, a 7-1 numerical superiority. Haig and Rawlinson anticipated losing 500,000 men. 


The plan was simple: to bomb the Germans for five days and nights then walk to the enemy trench and kill the remaining soldiers or capture those who surrendered. 

However, after 5 days of bombing, the German trenches and their defences were barely scratched. The English neglected to reconnoitre or observe this from the air.  The Germans just had to shoot their machine guns, reload and shoot again. The same type of attack continued from the 1st of July until November 1916. Over a million men died; 58,000 on the first day.


On July 1 1916, 11 British divisions attacked on a 13-mile front. By 7.30 am the six German divisions finished breakfast, wiped their faces with their napkins, and carried their machine guns from comfortable deep cellars. They began spraying the attackers who were advancing in neat rows, "to maintain order."

A German machine gunner wrote, "We were surprised to see them walking, we had never seen that before. The officers went in front. One was carrying a walking stick...When we started to fire, we just had to load and reload. They went down in their hundreds. We didn't have to aim, we just fired into them. "

A German officer reported his impression of the attack. "Whole sections appeared to fall. All along the line, Englishmen could be seen throwing their arms into the air and collapsing, never to move again. Badly wounded rolled about in agony, while badly wounded crawled into shell-holes for shelter. "

John Laffin: "Of the 110,000 men who attacked, 60,000 were killed or wounded on this one day. About 20,000 lay dead between the lines. Haig and Rawlinson were directly responsible for the assumption bombardment would cut barbed wire and render the Germans vulnerable.  The Germans lost an estimated 8000 men on July 1. 2000 were taken prisoner." (64) 

A hospital station dealt with 10,000 casualties in the first 48 hours. A surgeon wrote:  "Streams of ambulances a mile long waited to be unloaded. The whole area of the camp, a field of six acres, was completely covered with stretchers placed side-by-side, each with its suffering or dying man. We surgeons were hard at it in the operating theatre, a good hut holding four tables. Occasionally we made a brief look around to select from the thousands of patients those few we had time to save. It was terrible. (73) 

Haig's chronicler Colonel Boraston wrote that the attack, "bore out the conclusions of the British High Command, and amply justified the tactical methods employed." (No doubt these men were all Freemasons.)

Laffin writes: "This is an outrageous statement. It is more accurate to call 1 July 1916, as H. L'Etang does, 'probably the greatest disaster to British arms since Hastings....Certainly never before nor since has such wanton pointless carnage been seen...' (70)

Laffin bemoans the  complete "absence of cleverness" in the military strategy. He emphasizes that, "high casualties were a basic rule of the game and simply had to be accepted." (76)

Who knows how the world would be different if the cream of that generation of Christians had not been trampled into the mud of France in 1915-18?

There is simply no explanation for sending wave after wave of men to their slaughter other than that this was the deliberate goal. Any sane general would have stopped the attack as soon as it became apparent that the strategy was a failure. 

Western society is controlled by a satanic cult whose goal is to degrade and exploit humanity.
It's time we stopped we being complicit in our own destruction.

First Comment from  Dan

Grand total of combat deaths, all sides 8,230,012

Total active duty including diseases 10,822,343

Total civilian deaths 2,235,457

"Spanish"Flu began in Jan 1918 and ran in two waves till Dec 1920
Death toll:  est, 20,000,000 to 50,000,000

500,000,000 were infected, so I'd go with the higher estimate.  My grandparents remembered it. Whole families died in two days.

Both waves killed the same age as combat soldiers.

It's as if whomever wanted the fittest of that generation of European males culled, came up with a way to kill the girls too. Just one helluva coincidence.
