A VERY POOR WHITEWASH OF SIR EDWARD GREY

In this centenary of World War One, in NATO media there appears to be no attempt to honour the men, women and children who died and address the truth of how World War One really started.

Two months ago John Lewis-Stempel tried to pin WW1 on Germany by referring to a meeting of the German High Command during which, according to Lewis-Stempel, a decision was taken by Germany to start war. But there is no evidence to support this. On the contrary, evidence exists to show that no decisions were taken at that meeting.

Lewis-Stempel continues this boring and untruthful blame-Germany rhetoric with an article in The Sunday Express that attempts to exonerate Sir Edward Grey. According to Lewis-Stempel, Grey was just a wealthy fisherman and birdwatcher who ended up as Foreign Minister.

But Grey was Foreign Minister when Great Britain was at the height of its power.

And he is still the longest serving Foreign Minister.

Therefore Grey must be more than just a quiet fisherman. He must be a British imperialist of the highest order.

And indeed he was.

Grey was a member of The Coefficients and at least on the edge of the Milner Group. It was Grey who arranged the Entente under Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England, King Edward VII. It was Grey who did not state that Great Britain would defend Belgium. King George led Germany to believe that Great Britain would not join in any war.

But what does Lewis-Stempel say?
In other words, the winning team of UK, France, USA and Russia was largely fashioned by one Sir Edward Grey.

And so, to the main “crime” on the charge sheet against Edward Grey: In Lloyd George’s words, “Had Grey warned Germany in time of the point at which Britain would declare war and wage it with her whole strength, the issue would have been different.” There would have been no war. Did Grey bungle in summer 1914?

The accusation is a red-herring M’lud. Germany had been told since 1911 by the British king, by War Secretary Haldane and by Grey that if she attacked France, Britain would not stand idly by. In the end France did not decide the issue, War or No.

Everybody in Europe, from the lowliest English brickie to the emperor of Germany, knew in their hearts that Britain would honour her obligations to protect the independence of Belgium.

The tragedy of the First World War is that Berlin willfully ignored all evidence of British intent and bet the farm on the German army being able to best France before Britain could meaningfully intervene.

The facts are:
1. Grey NOT ONCE stated that Great Britain would defend Belgium;
2. King George, on this occasion and contrary to Lewis-Stempel's claim, stated that Great Britain would not join any war.

And Great Britain had established a committee to manipulate tension in the Balkans, using organisations established by a top Freemason and British Intelligence agent, Giuseppe Mazzini.

And the assassins of Arch Duke Ferdinand were Freemasons and had received assistance and encouragement from foreign Freemasons, Freemasonry having condemned Ferdinand to death almost 2 years earlier.

The truth is that Great Britain engineered tensions in the Balkans such that assassins could be found to assassinate someone powerful enough to bring the powers to the brink of war. When this assassination occured, with the assistance of Freemasonry, Great Britain gave Germany the impression that it would not join any war. This was reinforced by Sir Edward Grey not making it clear where Great Britain stood on the issue of Belgium. But when Germany invaded Belgium, Great Britain instantly jumped to defend Belgium's neutrality, even though Great Britain had been violating Belgium's neutrality for months, if not years!
