Gladio and the New World Order - A Zebre Magazine interview with Colonel Towner Watkins

Gladio and the New World Order: Colonel Towner Watkins' Research

Colonel Towner Watkins, a former US Air Force officer, presents extensive research into the clandestine 'Gladio' network and its deep connections to a global 'International Syndicate'. His central argument posits that this complex system, originating from post-WWII covert operations, actively manipulates global events to serve specific elite interests, driving towards a 'New World Order' through a long-term, calculated plan.

• Gladio's Genesis & Evolution:

  • The network's origins are traced to Nazi 'werewolf' units and figures like Reinhard Gehlen, who was later adopted by US intelligence (e.g., Allan Dulles, Lyman Lemnitzer) during and after WWII.
  • Initially established as European 'stay-behind' units, it rapidly expanded globally. Operations like 'Operation Condor' in Latin America are considered a 'kissing cousin' to Gladio, illustrating its worldwide reach and the generic application of the term 'Gladio' to various country-specific secret armies.

• Financing & Economic Control 💰:

  • The system is primarily funded through a vast, illicit drug trafficking network, evolving from opium (Golden Triangle/Crescent) to cocaine (Crystal Triangle in Latin America). Colonel Watkins highlights a stark correlation between US military presence in regions and significant spikes in drug production.
  • Money laundering mechanisms evolved from entities like the Vatican Bank and BCCI (Bank of Commerce and Credits International) to established major global banks (e.g., Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan) to process billions annually.

• The International Syndicate & its Praetorian Guard:

  • Described as a global network of oligarchs and multinational corporations (e.g., Anaconda, Freeport Mining, ITT, PepsiCo) whose fundamental objective is the exploitation of countries for their natural resources.
  • This syndicate operates through a 'Praetorian Guard' composed of three core pillars: influential political figures, powerful economic institutions (IMF, World Bank), and paramilitary intelligence agencies (CIA).
  • Watkins argues this system represents a modernized form of colonialism, effectively offloading operational costs onto taxpayers while privatizing immense profits for the elite.

• Tactics & Objectives 👁️:

  • Methods include orchestrating false flag operations, initiating wars (e.g., the 1990 Iraq invasion to divert attention from Gladio's exposure), facilitating coups (e.g., Patrice Lumumba in Congo, Salvador Allende in Chile), and creating 'boogeymen' (e.g., radical Islamic terrorism).
  • Population displacement is leveraged for human trafficking, with 'refugees' sometimes comprising trained terrorists utilized to destabilize other regions (e.g., Europe).
  • The ultimate long-term goal, a plan reportedly active since the late 1800s (Fabian Society), is to establish a 'one world government' and a 'perfect control grid' through digital IDs, Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), and carbon passports, mirroring tactics often attributed to China.

Colonel Watkins concludes by emphasizing that figures like Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin act as 'disruptors' by exposing systemic corruption. He advocates for individuals to actively combat this system by educating their communities, supporting politicians who challenge the status quo, and collectively refusing to participate in what he terms the global 'insanity', thereby leveraging collective power to instigate meaningful change.
