What has escaped the public eye is the subversive dimension of weaponized migration: The purposeful mass movement of people to penetrate, disrupt, divide, burden, and destroy the target destination of settlement.
Small regimes weaponize migration to cleanse their own domains of dissidents, criminals, parasites, and the ill, aged, or otherwise non-productive. The weaponization part is not the purgative effects, but the focused projection of economic and social burdens upon a target.
Governments and tribes of some of the most primitive countries weaponize emigration to prosperous lands with the intent to milk the host country’s generosity through demands, extortion, and criminal enterprises to send cash back home.
More efficient weaponization exploits or even orchestrates migration to infiltrate intelligence operatives, political agitators, street gangs, terrorists, and saboteurs into the target’s body politic for the purpose of destroying it from within.
This type of migration, as Nathan D. Steger wrote in a 2016 Naval Postgraduate School study ["The Weaponization of Migration: Examining Migration as a 21st Century Tool of Political Warfare"], “can range from overt and hostile in support of military operations to more clandestine or passive undertakings, such as espionage” or influencing political and social demographics. “Due to lengthy timeframes required to plan and execute fifth-column operations, people often dismiss evidence as imaginings of the conspiracy-minded who are quick to voice suspicions on politically sensitive and polarizing topics such as racism or immigration.”
VANGUARD COLONIALISM
Fifth-column immigrants settle abroad to subvert the societies that welcome them, in support of a larger military or terrorist strategy. Their dual purposes are to feed off their hosts in their new countries while acting as ideological, political, and cultural vanguards for a foreign actor. Those vanguard forces impose discipline to dominate the immigrant community. They operate within the system to establish colonies and build the material, political, and legal support structures for their foreign subversive strategy.
The Communists in Bolshevik and Stalinist times called their migrating operatives the “vanguard of the proletariat.” They would dispatch a “detachment of the vanguard” abroad to organize workers’ movements nationally, as part of an international “struggle."
from the Frankfurt School,
From that meeting, a group of mostly German or German-speaking party leaders and academics reverted to Marx’s pre-Communist Manifesto ravings about waging class warfare not against the wealthy, but against Western culture. Civilization, not the bourgeoisie, was the oppressor. This concept refined itself over the decades after the Comintern and Soviet intelligence services set up what became the Frankfurt School of cultural warfare—the critical theory that is sometimes called Cultural Marxism.
Critical theory became a fashionable and sophisticated way for intellectuals and other privileged elites, disillusioned with Stalin, to remain true to Marx and Bolshevism. Culture replaced economics as the dialectical battlespace. The rich were no longer the oppressor—the oppressor was Judeo-Christian values and traditions.
It just gets uglier and uglier.
Part of that cultural destruction is intended to right the terrible wrongs of Dead White Men who built the Greco-Roman and Judeo-Christian foundations of what became Western Civilization. That meant importing large numbers of civilizational rejectionists into Europe, Canada, and the United States.
After migrating to Columbia University in New York, the Frankfurt School refined the idea to devise an intellectual discipline: Critical legal theory to weaponize the law, critical race theory to weaponize issues of race and ethnicity, and all the other critical theories to destroy civilization and all its oppressiveness.
Self-hating Europeans and North Americans, in the thrall of their unrelenting self-criticism, would support and ultimately demand unrestricted migration—not of the best people from around the world who would make the host countries greater, but of the worst parasites from the worst countries to feed off the hosts and bring them down.
Who can forget this? And still no one in my circles knew to question who the people were invading our country.
Cuba’s Fidel Castro pioneered illegal mass migration into the United States with his Mariel Boatlift of 1980. Not only did he allow hundreds of thousands of opponents of his regime to seek freedom in America, but he emptied his prisons and insane asylums to inflict his social problems as a weapon against the United States.
1980, Sanctuary movement begins.
The Mariel Boatlift took place amid Cuba’s more systematic and disciplined support, including strong Soviet backing for Marxist-Leninist revolutions in the Americas. The Sandinista revolution of 1979 soon led to the unification of the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN) insurgency in El Salvador under Castro’s supervision. The FMLN waged a vicious guerrilla war across what President Ronald Reagan considered the red line against Communist expansion in the hemisphere.
Reagan’s support for El Salvador’s fight to crush the FMLN caused the guerrillas to evacuate their family members to a safe haven – deep inside the United States. Front organizations and allied churches smuggled FMLN civilian loyalists by the thousands into the US in direct support of the insurgency. They moved human FMLN assets through Mexico to “sanctuaries” from California to Massachusetts, first under the protective auspices of churches, and then under the legal protection of cities and later states to provide “sanctuary” from federal immigration officials.
This sanctuary movement began in the mid-1980s and endures to the present day. It became far broader among people indoctrinated into the worldview of critical theory that claimed their own country and culture were oppressors to be resisted.
Critical Race Theory is the mass psychosis op implemented on the American people to hate their own country.
It became far broader among people indoctrinated into the worldview of critical theory that claimed their own country and culture were oppressors to be resisted.
This mass psychosis helps explain the widespread support for unchecked mass migration among American-born citizens.
Through exploiting that psychosis and fueling it, other foreign actors, as Castro did nearly a half-century ago, dispatch their own fifth-column immigrants into America. Meanwhile, mayors and governors refuse to cooperate with federal authorities to remove the illegal aliens, be they rapists, child molesters, or agitators for Hamas.
With uncommon awareness, former Trump National Security Council staffer Joshua Steinman posts regularly on X with questions about “foreign sabotage teams,” including Iranian, inside the United States.
One awaits news of the deportation of any of the estimated 60,000 disciplined, physically fit, military-age men from the People’s Republic of China who crossed in from Mexico during the Biden years. Sixty thousand men. That is the equivalent of six US Army divisions.
Who's to blame for the mass migration?
Such a study will also show that it was Christian churches and culturally Jewish philanthropies, often more than the Brotherhood, that pressured for and sponsored the mass migration of the world’s Islamic pawns from places including Somalia to colonize parts of this country. They demanded and received billions in charitable, state, and federal tax dollars to fund NGOs and contractors for the influx.
