BERLIN WANTS ETHNIC "NEW ORDER" IN GULF REGION Date of Report 3 April 2003 MUNICH/ GUETERSLOH - German foreign policy seeks to use the war in Iraq as an opportunity for an ethnically oriented "New Order" for the whole region. A strategy paper demands " A New Order in Iraq according to European Principles", the "progressive overthrow" of the former political order and rapid dismantling of present frontiers. The USA and its allies should be made complicit in this process. Shortly before the beginning of the war in Iraq, Werner Weidenfeld, Director of the Centre for Applied Political Research (CAP) and member of the the Praesidium of the Bertelsmann Institute, (Bertelsmann was the principal publisher of Nazi propaganda in the 1940s) declared that the chance had arisen to dispute "World Hegemony" with the USA and that this opportunity should be used. "NEW ORDER" IN ALLIANCE WITH THE AGGRESSORS Now both organisations, which co-operate closely with the German Foreign Office, have presented a strategy paper for a "New Order in Iraq according to European principles". The military defeat of the Iraqi government and the occupation of the country by the USA is implicitly accepted. The proposed strategy would guarantee "the presence of the EU at all levels in order to protect the political and economic interests of the Community" and prevent the EU's becoming marginalised "in a region close to its back yard". At the same time the Berlin strategists aspiring to World Power attempt to involve the belligerent USA and its allies in these plans. The strategy paper was elaborated in co-operation with the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies of the European University of Florence, The Royal Institute of International Affairs London (for the corporatist/fascist background of this organisation see Rodney Atkinson's book Europe's Full Circle under Publications on this site) and the ASPEN Institute of Italy in Rome (whose headquarters are in Washington). Josef Jenning, leader of the "International Understanding" division of the Bertelsmann Foundation explained that the suggested "New Order" could "perhaps be a way to integrate American world policy once again into a multilateral system". "PROGRESSIVE OVERTHROW" Inherently the strategy follows the principles of "voelkisch" (ethnic) "New Order" such as Berlin has pressed on the Balkans and advocates for Asia and Africa. (see Breaking News and previous Germany Calling articles for the outright rejection of this German strategy by Turkey, Brazil, Ecuador etc.). It should be based on the authority of the UN Security Council, "a multi-national task force" and a "High Authority" as a protectorate. This authority should be responsible for "the enormous task of constructing a New Political Order". This must unconditionally take into account the "ethnic differences" and "confessional division" of Iraq by "autonomy of minorities "with the autonomous Kurdish region as a "germ cell". (Needless to say the Kurds in Turkey, Iran and Iraq, like the Israelis and the Palestinians, want their own Nation State, not a region, but that does not conform with German Europe's agenda either at home or abroad!) The territorial integrity of Iraq (and of other countries in the region) should only be maintained pro forma because the "artificial division" of the region into various independent states had not created a stable, regional order. (This was of course precisely Saddam Hussein's view). Therefore it was necessary to achieve a "progressive overthrow" of this order. "Psychological and administrative frontiers in the region must be speedily demolished" says the report. With the help of a "Conference for Security and Co-operation in the Gulf, border problems (amongst other things)...could be overcome by co-operation" A great international conference should urge "the parties of the growing Arab - Israeli conflict" to accept a solution in which the transfer of population must be supervised by an international force.
