  1. Sorry kate you hasve had this up here before ,it is sooo relivant and i love the video it has stuck with me since i saw it the one i saw was with him talking abotu people with bananas in there ears and about how russia has sent spy’s and regular people to try to subvert the u.s. and turn the people upside down and if he is right then they have done a great job of turning the u.s. into a socialistic country .anyway it was something along those lines and i have never forgot it maybe it was two years ago.!!!

  2. That was not what I needed to see just now. Fortunately I live in an area of the country where people haven’t been “demoralized”. What I find odd is that when I’d mention stuff like this to people in the 1980’s I was told I was paranoid.
    Maybe that’s why the USSR “collapsed”. International communism morphed into the “green” movement with Gorbachev actively involved. Destruction of the western economy is just part of the KGB plan; why risk nuclear war when all you have to do is to get your enemies to destroy themselves? Most people in the west can’t conceive of systems operating on timescales of 25-50 years to create gradual changes that eventually undermine a society. The interesting thing will be to see if the big zero will initiate some form of crisis now for the final steps of the KGB plan.

  3. When I came to this country some 40 years ago, at gatherings with Canadians, trying clumsily communicate with severely limited English, have talked to them about some of the things that this chap is saying, nobody in Calgary would believe. A few times I was told that I’m making propaganda.
    The stuff that the guy is saying, is or was a public secret, a general knowledge. That was/is, how communism operates. Anybody that was interested in politics knew this stuff. The way Bezmenov articulated it, it is well put.
    Some times it seemed as though the system was run by what is known in general as big giant head, somebody, somewhere. When you actually talked to some of the big shots communists, they were in general very nice people, not unlike the politicians here and now. I’m thinking O’Brian of 1984 fame.

  4. This video keeps cutting out. It’s stopped at 3:41.
    Is this happening to anyone else? Any tips on how I can watch the whole thing? It’s fascinating to hear the reality of the Communist takeover of America right from the horse’s mouth.

  5. Read Ronald Regan memoirs about his battle with communist in the Screen Actors Guild during the ’50s. Or earlier William R. Hurst’s private war against communism in the labour movement circa 1920s.
    To this day I do not understand the conservative movement’s reluctance to eulogize their philosophy to the people. The left so feared the Reform movement because it threatened their existance. Reform was actually teaching people at the constituency level how to govern by initating positions. It is a well known reality that leftest will infiltrate successful movements to change direction from within. Left-right-or centre, makes no difference. Control is everything.

    Yeah! Believe it or not they tried to co-opt the NRA…..failed badly…..grass-roots doncha know.

  7. Leftists = political prostitutes.
    Unfortunately, it’s going to take 25 -30 years to turn things around, but this interview took place 26 years ago.
    This really is a must-see. Thanks, Kate.

  8. This brainwashing has been able to happen “thanks to the lack of moral standards.”
    Yup. Huge problem. Back to church, folks.
