We are in the process of transferring and updating a huge amount of information from our
previous web site, so be forewarned that some of our sections are incomplete. The most
important items, however, are now in place.
There is so much to discover here that it would be easy to become lost in minutia that makes no
sense without first knowing why it is included. Therefore, we have organized the sections of
this site into a sequence leading from the general to the specific. The menu at the left (or the top
if you are using a mobile device) follows that sequence.
If you begin with the Overview and work your way down the menu, each section will build upon
the previous one. The following video is a good place to begin. Welcome to Freedom Force.
G. Edward Griffin, Founder
OVERVIEW
Feedom Force International is a network of men and women from all parts of the
world and all walks of life who are concerned over loss of personal liberty and growth of
government power. We are not mere complainers but have a plan to do something about
it.
In spite of differences in culture, nationality, race, religion, life style, education, and
economic status, we are in solidarity with The Creed of Freedom, which is a statement of
principles that guide us in our mission.
That mission is nothing less than to be the Guardians of liberty.
Totalitarianism is on the rise because advocates of all-powerful government have
taken control of the power centers in every society.
There have been many proposals for ways to reverse the global tide of totalitarianism,
but none of them have worked. In this address,
G. Edward Griffin, explains why. The reason is so simple, it will astound you. Once we
clear away that single barrier, the plan for a counter-force falls quickly into place.
Recorded on June 11, 2006, in La Caňada, California, this message is even more
appropriate now than it was then; 67 minutes that could change your life.
Power centers are organizations – such as political parties, labor unions, church groups,
media centers, and professional societies – that hold political power based on
their claim to represent their members and on their ability to lead public
opinion.
It has taken many years for them to achieve that dominance over society, but
they have succeeded. It does no good to complain or to theorize about what should be
done. As long as big-government advocates hold power, nothing will change.
We must not be like cats. One of the differences between dogs and cats is that cats
focus on effects but dogs focus on causes.
If you toss a pebble at a cat, it will look at the pebble. If you toss it at a dog, it will look
at you.
Too many people are like cats. They are rightly concerned about their loss of security,
freedom, and privacy, but they do little more than hiss and wail without knowing why
these things are happening. In Freedom Force, however, we focus on the cause and then
work to eliminate it.
The decline of civilization is not the result of blind forces of history operating
beyond compre-hension or control. It is caused by a small but well defined group of
people who believe this decline is necessary for what they fondly call The New World
Order but which we recognize as modern, high-tech feudalism.
The identities of these elitists are known. They have names. They belong to
organizations. They meet together to create strategies and they work jointly to
implement them. Since they now dominate the power centers of society, our response is
clear. They must be removed from their positions of power. Any other plan is doomed to
failure.
That, however, is not enough. If we focus solely on the identities and personalities of
those who are promoting the decline of liberty, we will be stumped by the fact that, even
if we should succeed in removing them from office, there are many more just like them
waiting to take their places.
It’s not the identities or party affiliations of these people that matters. It’s what they
believe, what ideology they hold.
Their ideology has a name.
It’s called collectivism, a concept that government is master and people must obey
because it’s for their own good. It’s pointless to get rid of one collectivist only to be
replaced by another.
It is time to stop acting like cats, stop being fascinated by the personalities and deeds of
our leaders. We must be like dogs and focus on their ideology, because that is the cause
of their deeds.
The solution is simple. It is to reclaim control of the power centers of society,
one-by-one, just the way collectivists captured them in the first place. Replace them with
individualists, people who have no personal agendas except to defend freedom.
This will unleash the vast human potential for prosperity and happiness that can be
realized only in the absence of coercion and oppression by the state.
To reach that goal, however, those who cherish freedom must do more than
complain. They must reach for power. That is the meaning of the Freedom Force
motto: Impotentes defendere libertatem non possunt, which is Latin for:
Those without power
cannot defend freedom.
The strategy can be further summarized as:
Don’t fight city hall when you can BE city hall.
An idea whose time has come.
