Produced in 1969 during the height of the Vietnam War, The Great Pretense reveals the history of American aid and trade with Communist countries and how that aid has helped to keep Communism alive. Shown by members of The John Birch Society throughout the country, the filmstrip awoke many Americans to the folly of trying to fight communists in one place while helping them everywhere else. Links to informative Cold War-era books and essays exposing the U.S. government’s financial and technological aid and expansion of communism. Also includes links to present day articles documenting the continuation of the same policy of helping our enemies and the truth about the Vietnam War: The Great Pretense (transcript) http://tinyurl.com/9ge8n5q Building Communism http://tinyurl.com/9y8o3wo Building the Evil Empire http://tinyurl.com/97lwhpm The East Came West http://tinyurl.com/9t9jg5e The Looters http://tinyurl.com/9chw4bg The Marshall Plan http://tinyurl.com/98hc5vj From Major Jordan’s Diaries http://tinyurl.com/8uab4zk East Minus West = Zero http://tinyurl.com/9t56s4k Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution http://tinyurl.com/orvzw National Suicide: Military Aid to the Soviet Union http://tinyurl.com/8wvxgsz The Best Enemy Money Can Buy http://tinyurl.com/947gunc Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development, 1917 to 1930 http://tinyurl.com/9npwtwf Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development, 1930 to 1945 http://tinyurl.com/9may5h5 Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development, 1945 to 1965 http://tinyurl.com/8tnsa3w Birds of a Feather: American and Soviet Traders Are Flocking Together http://tinyurl.com/9jpqhv6 The Enemy North Vietnam would not be able to wage war against its opposing forces had it not been supplied by the Soviet Union and its Eastern European satellites — countries the U.S. continued to trade with during the Vietnam War. http://tinyurl.com/7zq3t86 While Brave Men Die http://tinyurl.com/bvqrzrl Aid and Trade Treachery: Building an Enemy http://tinyurl.com/8pg33ex The Truth About Vietnam http://tinyurl.com/cnluap8 Seven Myths About the Vietnam War http://tinyurl.com/93hnb6x The Betrayed: Our Men in Uniform Want to Win in Vietnam http://tinyurl.com/74c6o84 Background to Betrayal http://tinyurl.com/72xetxd The Establishment’s War in Vietnam http://tinyurl.com/8p3ncjb Planning for Defeat http://tinyurl.com/8nf3kp7 Vietnam And The CFR http://tinyurl.com/993orsy Analysis: Vietnam http://tinyurl.com/7zcmogu America’s Retreat From Victory http://tinyurl.com/8dfczkf Letting Our Guard Down http://tinyurl.com/ck2rgc8 Shades of Subversion http://tinyurl.com/8f79o7v Retreat From Victory http://tinyurl.com/8ojqmq8 Communist China: Made in the U.S.A. http://tinyurl.com/8o32arr Betraying China http://tinyurl.com/8n6aasg Castro’s Cuba: Made in the U.S.A. http://tinyurl.com/9ashwt8 Funding Socialism for Latin America http://tinyurl.com/96c8wdl Communism’s Resurgence http://tinyurl.com/cu4cvpv Putin’s Russia: The Return of the Iron Fist http://tinyurl.com/d2fklgq The “Former” Soviet Bloc http://tinyurl.com/94kobfz Global Gorby http://tinyurl.com/95tvjw8 The Merger: Planning for World Government http://tinyurl.com/9p8nzd5 The Conspiracy Above Communism http://tinyurl.com/8n5ngdd The Grand Design http://tinyurl.com/8le5sh8 The State Department: Four Decades of Pro-Communist Policies Must Be Reversed http://tinyurl.com/8t2ujve Kissinger, Putin, and the “New World Order” http://tinyurl.com/8qfvr7j The Perestroika Deception http://tinyurl.com/93a3unn New Lies for Old http://tinyurl.com/8e4ewp4 Russian Troops Coming to U.S. for Terror Drills, DoD Confirms http://tinyurl.com/8usbwh7 U.S., Russia “Reset” the Convergence Agenda http://tinyurl.com/9lzgqte Stepping Stones to Convergence http://tinyurl.com/8pl6trh Arming the UN: Top-Down Treason http://tinyurl.com/9fa2dyj Comrades in Arms http://tinyurl.com/8admm5l The U.S.-Russian Military Merger http://tinyurl.com/6olqbmj Against Whom Are We Defending? http://tinyurl.com/9eahvkx Cosmic Convergence http://tinyurl.com/9ysg2b2 Crime Fighters Converge http://tinyurl.com/8tlgu7m The Convergence Connection http://tinyurl.com/9232b37 No Accident: The Continuing Betrayal of American Interests Is a Matter of Policy http://tinyurl.com/c9aqe52 Sowing Salt: Disarmament and the New World Order http://tinyurl.com/8hnnmmz Disarmament: They’re Promoting The Peace Of The Grave http://tinyurl.com/94v96se Aiding and Abetting the “Axis” http://tinyurl.com/d6zqnqy U.S. Subsidizes Russia’s Weapons of Mass Destruction http://tinyurl.com/8kzorgx Moscow-Beijing Terror Axis http://tinyurl.com/9hbka2w Making of a Monster: How the U.S. Helped Build Iraq’s War Machine http://tinyurl.com/bl9jcrn Abetting Our Enemy’s Allies http://tinyurl.com/9j3x9oh Building the Red Dragon http://tinyurl.com/9rwrtva U.S. Military Technology Fire Sale http://tinyurl.com/csxsnqc Shaking the Blood-Red Hand http://tinyurl.com/9zv7ak6
