Zionists offered to bring the United States in on the losing British, Italian, French and Russian side against Germany, The Ottoman Empire and Austria-Hungarian Empire which ended up being decisive. Zionists around Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild, extracted 1917 Balfour Declaration from British government as price for bringing US into WWI which carried on for another two years of mindless slaughter and human sacrifice.

Beginning his working life in the aviation industry and trained by the BBC, Tony Gosling is a British land rights activist, historian & investigative radio journalist. Over the last 20 years he has been exposing the secret power of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) and élite Bilderberg Conferences where the dark forces of corporations, media, banks and royalty conspire to accumulate wealth and power through extortion and war. Tony has spent much of his life too advocating solutions which heal the wealth divide, such as free housing for all and a press which reflects the concerns of ordinary people rather than attempting to lead opinion, sensationalise or dumb-down.

NOT The BCfm Politics Show 
Great 2 hours ! one of the best two hours of the politics show i’ve heard. And i have been listening since 2010. Thanks Tony and Martin, your guests, audio clips and very very informative. The first hour was very good. but i got depressed, too much truth about war in Syria and in the past. If only, If only ! the book ‘ All quiet on the western front ‘ chapter 3 solution to end war is still not applied. Strip to the waist and give clubs all the presidents, kings, prime ministers, queens, dictators, leaders etc who want to go to war with each other in a boxing ring…last one standing wins. Here’s my addition. So lets say Hitler is last one standing and says all right i get to kill 20 millions Russians, work to death or gas to death several million Jews, and so on. Me: but der Fuhrer, you didn’t read the fine print. We have something much better – twice a week for the rest of your life we will home deliver your favorite German meal and a bottle of Schnapps, Gratis ! Hitler rants as says no no no !!! and the people from all over the world, including Germans throw up their hands and walk away and don’t kill each other, don’t go to war.
I listened to second hour first, then listened to seconf and found it beneficial to lowering my my depression and anxiety of the sobering truths of the second hour. And listened to the first hour twice with Green Party Councillor and was very informative too,
