Jewish takeover of Ottoman Turkey in 1908

I am publishing this interesting article for the benefit of my Persian brothers who have problems believing that the "UnIslamic Revolution" of 1979 in Iran was the work of the USA/UK/FRANCE/ISRAEL .....and at the core of the Revolution which on the surface is fronted by the stupid, corrupt, incompetent and largely illiterate mullahs, the real engine and power of this regime lies in the network of crypto-Jews within Iran.........example Saeed Imami Deputy Head of Iranian intelligence until 1999............there must be thousand of Saeed Imami's STILL working quietly guiding the "Mullah UnIslamic State", and of course Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, the key "Front man spokes person" for this filthy illegal regime.

In reading this brief summary of how Jews took over the Ottoman empire, Persian brothers can draw important lessons of the situation of their own country NOW, and the psychological preparations and sacrifices required to overthrow this evil Jew instituted regime in Tehran.

Even before reading this article, Persians must ask themselves some simple questions to clear their mind of any doubt:
  • Has Iran been ruled by mullahs before in her 3,000 history?
  • Has Iran ever had such a brutal regime ruling over it for so many years....executing thousands of Iranians, including children for committing minor offenses which the mullahs define as criminal?
  • Why have 3 million educated Iranians fled the country?
  • In 31 years why has the USA NOT attempted seriously to overthrow the mullah regime, but instead frequently holds covert meetings with them in places such as Paris..."October Surprise" 1980....Iran/Contra (1982--1985).....in Rome.
  • Why do the isolated mullahs who have no real friends to come their aid, continue to be provocative diplomatically in the face of a possible attack by the USA/Israel. Syria is weak, and Venezuela even if they wanted to help are too far away.
  • After facing such threats from Israel/USA, at least since 2003, why do the mullahs spend ONLY 3% on defense......after 7 years of such threats would not a rational Persian make more serious, greater preparations for war? Why are the mullahs so relaxed about this serious matter of national survival?............The army can fight perhaps for a few weeks before they run out of spare parts........the Persian military cannot sustain a long conflict covering months, let alone a whole year. The only decent fighting unit with adequate arms are the Revolutionary Guards numbering 125,000, BUT what will 125,000 men do against a superpower? If the basic fighting services are not adequately equipped to fight for more than a few weeks, then why do the mullahs want to mobilize 20 million men and children when war is declared; For a Third World nation will this not create a logistical and organization disaster..........perhaps the plan is to send them to their deaths and satisfy the Jewish desires under Purim?
  • With so many problems within Iran which require serious addressing, why do the mullah puppets and their fronts (Ahmedinejad, Laranjani) keep talking about irrelevant subjects which are then over inflated in their actual importance by the mullahs, and given full media attention.....Nuclear Enrichment, the problems of the Palestinian people, Salman Rushdie, The Holocaust, Israel, .................and so on, and so on. Is it not human and natural for Persian to think of Persia first?
  • What is the basic condition of the average Iranian in terms of living standards, and social satisfaction now (happy Index) compared to how it was in say 1975?
The Israelis with the Americans might attack Iran to save the mullah regime, but Persians must persist well before that juncture against this puppet regime. It will be more difficult for them to attack Iran when it is known around the world that there are genuine efforts by the Persian people to overthrow this mullah regime. Then the people of the world will be able to guess who exactly brought the mullahs into power originally (if an Israeli attack takes places with the backdrop of popular, major, genuine street agitation against the mullahs throughout Iran, not just Tehran), to use them as scarecrows for future geo-strategic adventures in the Greater Middle East, under the "Arc of Crisis" strategy instituted in the late 1970's using Islamic Fundamentalists in Egypt, Syria, Iran, Afghanistan...and Pakistan.

An Israeli/American attack can kill many people in Iran; hundreds of thousands by simple aerial attacks...........1,300,000 Iraqis have died since its "Liberation". Fighting this mullah regime, and sacrificing a few in Iran NOW may protect Iran from such a future eventually which could be devastating for ALL.

The Facts Behind the
Overthrow of the Ottoman Sultaanate
by Muhammad Rafeeq via the French Connection.

Context

Much has been written on this subject and most of the evidence is a matter of public knowledge, however this article has been written to give links and sources for some of the proofs behind the claims. Also, this article aims to demonstrate some of the attempts to re-write history in an attempt to shift blame from the real villains behind the revolution.
Background

Perhaps the most famous name associated with the Young Turk revolution is that of Emanuel Caraso (sometimes spelled Carasso and the family eventually adopted the spelling Karasu). He was a Sephardic Jew from Salonica (1862-1934) and by profession a lawyer. Wrongly described as the founder of the Macedonia Rissorta Lodge in Salonica by some, he was in fact promoted to Grandmaster of the said Lodge in the early 1890s. (Given the Lodge was granted a charter by the Grand Orient of Italy in 1864, through its Istanbul “Italia” lodge, it was impossible for Caraso to be the lodge founder.)

A system known as ‘Capitulations’ had been effected by the Ottoman Sultaan, Mehmet IV, which gave amnesty to the houses of foreign nationals from being searched by his police force. Caraso, as Grandmaster for the Italian Grand Orient in Salonica, was able to offer the use of the Lodges under his control, as meeting houses for what became the Young Turk movement. Under this diplomatic immunity the Young Turk conspirators were able to meet to discuss the overthrow of the Sultaan and how to bring about the Armenian genocide (see Example 2 below for this point).

It is interesting to note that the Ottoman Sultaan even had his police attempt to steal the conspirators documents held within the Macedonia Rissorta Lodge, but they were exposed as the culprits and forced to hand the documents back.

Caraso was also one of three-man Young Turk delegation that made the formal proclamation that the Sultaan had been ‘dethroned’, thereby completing the overthrow phase of the revolution.

In all respects Caraso was the overt and apparent mastermind and facilitator of the Young Turk (a.k.a Ittihad and C.U.P.) conspiracy. This fact is denied by none.

Other Relevant Members of the Revolution

These members are relevant only in the sense of this article either because of their public admissions or because of their helping us to find the real powers behind the Young Turk movement. There are of course far more players than this short list, but they do not help to lead us to the puppet masters.

Attaturk

The overthrow of the Sultaan resulted in the establishment of new more secular nationalist government, under Kemal Ataturk. Of course, Ataturk himself was born in Salonica and was from a Donme(h) family of Jews. His embracing of Freemasonry occurred in 1909 and even the wikipedia acknowledges under its “list of Freemasons” that Ataturk was a member of the Rissorta Lodge (Number 80) of Salonica. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Freemasons) See under Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.



(Yes but unlike many of the Young Turk Jews, Mustafa Kemal spent most of the time fighting in the Turkish armed forces, and in the case of Gallipoli quite successfully, decisively. In the Caucasus Front against Russia he did well, and finally in Lebanon he was not the commanding officer of army group "Yildirim" where in 1918,..... 200,000 Turks were facing 500,000 British troops....and a few Bedouins.

During 1919--1920 he risked himself to mobilize the defeated Turks to fight for their country, recieveing some war material from Jewish Bolshevik Soviet Union via the Caucasus. The Treaty of Sievres 1920 would have further divided modern Turkey into smaller parts, but for the herioc action of Mustafa Kemal.......into a viable modern country which is now the largest economy in the Muslim world approaching $1,000 billion PPP.............in that sense because of his deeds, as General and as a Statesman absolves him of being a possible filthy crypto-Jew.

But I see the apparantly ultra patriotic Pan-Turanian "Young Turks" had very little faith in the fighting ability of the Turks of Central Asia, handing over the control of so much of the army to foreigners, who subsequently performed so badly.

General Liman Von Sanders was of Jewish decent.

German intelligence during the Great War was run by the Jew Max Warburg, whilst his brother ran the Federal Reserve in JEWSA, which funded/paid for the war machines of Italy, France, Russia, Britain AND GERMANY (via neutral Holland and Sweden with war materials carried by British and American merchant ships).


Rafik Bey

The Young Turk, Refik Bey, gave an interview to the Paris newspaper Le Temps, on the 20th of August 1908, where he said:
"It's true that we receive support from Freemasonry and especially from Italian Masonry. The two Italian lodges [of Thessaloniki] — Macedonia Risorta and Labor et Lux — have provided invaluable services and have been a refuge for us. We meet there as fellow Masons, because it is a fact that many of us are Masons, but more importantly we meet so that we can better organize ourselves."

Mehmet Cavit

The author Alexandre Jevakhoff has written in his book “Kemal Ataturk: Les chemins de l’Occident” (Paris, 1989) the following comments about Cavit:
“Cavit was a freemason – a member of a secret society with strong foreign links… The fact that he came from a Salonica donme family, and was called ‘Jew Cavit’ by his enemies, did not endear him to backwoodsmen among Mustafa (Ataturks) supporters.”


Also, Professor M. Evrum Ehrlich in his article “Sabbatean Messianism as Proto Secularism” said of this personality:

“Mehmet Cavit Bey (1875-1926) was one of the most significant Donme political figures. He was active in the revolution as a highly articulate editor of a tabloid and professor of finance and was three times Finance Minister of Modern Turkey until his execution for his alleged role in the assassination attempt of Ataturk . It is believed that Cavit Bey was an ardent Zionist and saw the advantages for Turkey in the Jewish settlement of Palestine.”


False Trails

The real perpertators of this crime are still attempting to cover their tracks. A selection of these is given below, so they can be recognised and discounted, should you come across them.

Example 1: A comparatively recent article by Jeffrey Steinberg, Allen Douglas, and Rachel Douglas which appeared in the Executive Intelligence Review of 23 September 2005 and is hosted on the EIR site at:
www.larouchepub.com/other/2005/3237cheney_permwar.html

The main idea behind this false version of history is to try and blame the British government or the Establishment, for being the secret forces behind the Young Turk movement. Specifically the article cites the British Monarchy/British East India Company as being under some form of socio-political threat because of the popularity of the developing American system of government. These writers have tried to pin the blame for the orchestration of whole revolution on Lord Palmerston.

(The East India Company was disbanded in 1858, because of the Indian Liberation war of 1857........though it is perfectly possible prior to its demise it may have taken an "interest" in Near East Ottoman Affairs. As to the British monarchy, especially Queen Victoria and then later Edward being intimately involved in intrigue and geo-strategy in and around the Ottoman empire seems highly unlikely given the largely ceremonial role they played in the affairs of the British state.

However given the aspirations of the British empire and its desire to protect that, and the prominent role of the Rothschild's in that, the richest family in the world........the subsequent creation of Israel promised and effected by the British.......annexing the Suez, and taking over Egypt in 1882, Cyprus in 1878....Aden 1839.....creation of Kuwait as an artificial vassal state and oil refueling port for the British navy from 1899.......and in Persia especially in the Southern part of the country, and the creation of Anglo-Persian oil company would suggest to us that Britain was very MUCH involved at least in the territory around the Ottoman empire, IF NOT WITHIN IT DIRECTLY.

But all the indications are that the Jewish part of the British establishment were fully involved in the politics of Ottoman Turkey in the early part of the 20th century, through the Jewish Young Turk movement.........and it is inconceivable that the French Rothschild branch of the family would not have informed or planned together with the British Rothschilds the rise of the Jew Young Turks in Ottoman Turkey, with certain pre-existing agenda's which would be implemented via the Jew Young Turk movement.

World War I was a par excellence Jew war instituted by the Rothschilds of Europe in coordination with NY Jewry to destroy Ottoman Turkey and create Israel; Destroy the Hapsburg empire, and Balkanise it; destroy the German empire....after the war Jews basically ran Germany via the Wiemar Republic, and had the country by the balls, ....and the best and worst example ....the institution of the Jew Bolsheviks in 1918 in Russia, funded by them......THUS all such events....., including the tragic events within Ottoman Turkey (25% of Ottoman Turkish civilians killed; 500,000 soldiers killed unofficially.........the loss of significant portions of the country) must be seen within the context of the wider Jew instituted picture and designs in the whole of Europe.

The Great War claimed 9 million mainly Western lives, and was a practice run for the even bigger Jew instituted tragedy of WWII, which claimed 60 million lives, and was far more savage.

Then the Jew instituted peace, and consolidated their power and legitimacy....and created further mechanism for world domination by creating the UN, WB, IMF, and EU)

As is common with these history re-writes, many of the actual facts have to be acknowledged. Therefore this article makes no denial of the fact that Vladimir Jabotinsky was employed by Caraso as the editor of his newspaper, The Young Turk. The article also acknowledges that ‘Parvus’, real name Alexander Israel Helphand, was also employed by Caraso as the economics editor of the Young Turk journal, The Turkish Homeland.

The roles of these two Ashkenazi Jews in the Bolshevik revolution is well known. It must be remembered that the Ashkenazi banker Jacob Schiff boasted on his deathbed that he had spent something like US$20 million on that revolution, as organiser and facilitator.

The simple fact that these Zionist agents turned up in the Young Turk revolution under Caraso, is proof enough that the British Establishment were not involved in the planning or execution of the revolution. The British powers were not in a position to give orders to men like Jabotinsky and Parvus.

(Quite the contrary.....the British establishment is not one monolith...The British establishment also has a Zionist clique headed by the Rothschilds, which through Prince William will see one day the first Jewish King of the United Kingdom. In relation to the American elites with crypto-Jewish backgrounds, many owe their good fortune to the Rothschilds in their initial start up businesses, and the Rothschilds used these American agents to buy into the American state and thus control it, after their failure in the American Civil war to divide the country........crypto-Jew Rupert Murdoch being the latest manifestation of this 150 year practice out of Rothschild London....his "Fuck the News" dominates American airwaves and he also owns some of the major rags, such that crypto-Jew Murdoch dominates the debating agenda of America...........which is now angling for crypto-Jewess Sarah Palin to become the next President of America after Obama )

Probably the most important false trail in this article is the claim that Caraso actually founded the masonic lodge that the revolution was run out of and that in turn that lodge had a ‘forerunner’ which was founded by Giuseppi Mazzini. Through this false link the authors of the article are trying to place the lodge and its activities under the control of the British establishment. However, it is possible to find the true identities of the forces behind the revolution by examining who really gave Caraso his orders.

For purposes of clarity, the non-involvement of the British powers can be easily established through several small examples, as given below.

Firstly, one of the most important British assets in Turkey prior, during and after the Young Turk revolution was Gerald Henry Fitzmaurice (biography at www.fitzmaurice.info/dragoman.html). Fitzmaurice was absolutely convinced that the revolution was an italian influenced Jewish freemasonic conspiracy. The note written by T.E. Lawrence (of Arabia) to Captain Basil Liddel Hart, who was head of British Military Intelligence to the Middle East during the First World War, is incredible. It can be found at the bottom of the page at the above link. Lawrence himself admits that the entire Young Turk movement was 50% crypto Jew and 95% masonic and furthermore that Fitzmaurice as a Roman Catholic rebuffed every advance made by the Young Turks.

(They are both intelligence officers....is it not possible that they are spreading disinformation, or even clueless as to what is actually going........had TE Lawrence visited the Asia Minor part of Turkey, Istanbul etc? How would he know such facts far removed from Ottoman politics working in Egypt, and the Hejaz )

Secondly, the British Ambassador to Turkey, Sir Gerard Lowther (biography at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_Gerard_Lowther,_1st_Baronet) wrote many reports on the Young Turk situation to the Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey (biography at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Grey,_1st_Viscount_Grey_of_Fallodon). In his report of May 1910, Lowther called referred to the C.U.P. as the "the Jew Committee of Union and Progress" and he also reported that " liberty, equality, fraternity), words drawn from the French Revolution, were both the slogan of the Italian Freemasons (meaning Caraso's Italian chartered lodge in Salonica) and of the Young Turkey movement....” (See Late Ottoman Rule Over Palestine in the Journal for Middle Eastern Studies, Vol. 35 No. 1, January 1999 for references to the report)

(The British Foreign Office is a very big organization containing many shades and types of people, as you would expect..................some of its key employees are Zionists {particularly now, with Jewish power further entrenched}.....some are not {the senior official caught shouting profanities at Israel in his local gym}......the Iraq war of 2003 is an example of the power that particular cabal/clique wield.....they are organized along fervent tribal lines; they control the British media...and have access to their tribesmen in America.

However not all FO personnel would be privy to the Jewish globalist agenda, or would be able to recognize or psychologically accept it even if it was staring at them, or necessarily approve even if they knew........but might murmur about it privately because that is the most they are willing to do)

Thirdly, Lawrence led the British campaign against the Turks during the First World War. If the British establishment were really pulling the strings behind the Young Turk revolution, there would have been no need for the British to go to war against them.

(Thats bad reasoning.......if you install the Young Turks to basically exhaust and destroy Ottoman Turkey from within {aka Mullah Iran now} so that Israel can be created from the ashes AFTER the Great War, you still need to fight your puppets army of Turkey to guarantee on the ground the reality of the state of Israel, by sending troops to enforce that objective which Britain did dutifully for the Jew between 1914--1947, whilst sumultaneously suppressing the Palestinian majority, along that path.

The Donme Jew Young Turks could not use the Ottoman army to realise and establish Israel. The Donme Jew Young Turks might be able use the Ottoman army to kill Christian Armenians in a time of emergency and war {aka USA military now}..........and thus blemish the fine reputation and traditions of an army with a history in this region for 1,000 years from Manzikert onwards. But the Ottoman army was a Muslim army {Christians, Jews not allowed}.........During the Great War 1914---18, Turkey mobilised 3,000,000 men, and within this number were a significant number of non-Ottoman Muslim voluntiers from other Muslim countries. In the Palestine front a significant number of foreign Muslim volunteers were enrolled in the Ottoman Units, thus such an army could never have been used to ethnically cleanse Palestine, and hand it over to the Jews.........

The British who focused in this theater of war were used to realize Israel, and eventually by wars end, 1918, concentrated 1,800,000 men in the Near East theater. So on this line of reality, the British due to the influence of the Rothschilds, the richest family in the world must have had a role in Ottoman politics prior to the outbreak of war.

In the Soviet Union..........On the wider scale of this duplicity, you have the Jew run Soviet Union which is funded by Jew bankers from NY, as you pointed out above in relation to Joseph Schiff; Further you can have American industry bankroll, AND provide the logistical and technical help to build Soviet industry in the key critical years of the 1920's and 1930's.........Whilst at the same time have American forces fighting to prevent the rise of the Bolshevik Revolution, where from 1918 American servicemen were sent to the country to fight them....AND then the $6 trillion Cold war hoax 1949---1989, The Cuban Missile Crisis 1962, and the many proxy wars between the two superpowers....Korean war, Vietnam, Afghanistan......which were.........real enough with millions dead ........and a gaggle of Jewish Bankers happy in their work, and their cleverness in fooling the rest of us.


Jewish bankers in NY and London bankrolled the Bolshevik Revolution of 1918. Jewish bankers in London and NY provided the key finance which help the Soviet Union industrialize during the 1920's and 1930's. Joseph Stalin was most likely a Rothschild agent.


Nazi Germany......the party funded by the Jew into power 1923---1933 {Clear evidence exists, but sometimes portrayed as a misguided short sighted decision by "greedy bankers', but not necessarily as a Jewish conspiracy}.......the major loans in the 1920's given to rebuild German armaments, into the 1930's IG Farben/American industry..........the first pocket battleship were built with American loans in the 1920's............AND...OF COURSE, WW II which America entered in 1941, and the loss of 300,000 American servicemen's lives, and the occupation of Germany into the present........America still now controls Germany in many security areas )


Jewish Bankers in NY and London funded the Nazi Party into power 1923--1933. The Jewish bankers also funded German rearmament in the 1920's and 1930's. It is possible that Adolf Hitler was a Rothschild agent recruited before the Great war.


Example 2: Attempts have been made to somehow ‘distance’ the Young Turk movement from the Armenian deaths and these take two forms; one is to deny that a murders occurred and that the claim is made that the Armenian deaths were only casualties of war, disease and starvation etc; the second, and most relevant from the persepective of genocide, is to try and deny that the deaths were in any premeditated, thereby ruling out the term genocide or holocaust. These writes often also claim that the total number of Armenian deaths were much lower than the estimated 1-1.5 million.

A good example of this type of writing is “Negative Factors in Turco-Armenian Relations” by Salahi Sonyel.

There is no doubt that a considerable amount of strife had developed between the Sultaan and sections of the Armenian. It is even believed that one Armenian terrorist group had made an assassination attempt on the Sultaan in 1905. There is plenty of evidence that suggests these seditious groups were being encouraged to revolt by the British, Germans and the Russians, all of whom saw nationalistic advantages in being allied with the Armenian cause. These forces encouraged various Armenian groups to protest and undertake militancy, all in the name of Armenian independence from Ottoman rule. The miitant elements even engaged in direct conflict with the Ottoman military forces and deaths, at times running into thousands, occurred on both sides.

These Armenian separatists supported the Young Turk revolution, believing that after the revolution they would be at least granted greater autonomy. However, the Young Turks recognised the Armenian separatists as a useful ally to help them gain control, but planned pan-Turkish nationalism for the medium term and there was no way that they were going to agree to further autonomy.

(Like the Tudeh left alliance which helped the mullahs of Iran into power.......the mullahs could never have gained power by themselves as political novices; they had external help of course, and internal misguided help from Iranians thinking that they were going to get something better than the Shah)

Within a few years after the revolution the new young Turk government had begun a series of purges against the Armenians, initially with a view to bringing them into line. Of course this hrdline approach only served to stiffen the resolve of the Armenian separatists and this resulted in the Young Turk government bringing about the wholesale slaughter of Armenians. Even the re-writes such as Sonyel admit that around 400,000 Armenian deaths occurred at the hands of the Young Turk government.

In 1909 the Young Turk forces (by now the CUP government) murdered 20,000-30,000 Armenians at Adana and afterwards they immediately disclaimed responsibility and publicly tried to blame the atrocity on forces loyal to the deposed Sultaan. History has demonstrated that the Young Turks were undoubtedly responsible for the particular mass murder. (See http://www.armenian-genocide.org/adana.html)

The only remaining question is the matter of premeditation, had the young Turks actually planned this genocide in advance? The Turkish author Mevlan Z. Rifat and his book "Inner Folds of the Ottoman Revolution" (1929) seems to be much quoted on the web as one early source claiming premeditation. It has also been claimed that the Jewish writer David Morrison in his book "Heroes, Antiheroes And The Holocaust" (1995) has stated that:

“The evidence is overwhelming that the massacre of the Armenians was a deliberate, planned genocide. The Young Turks allied themselves with Germany and used World War I as a cover for their slaughter of Armenians... As did the Nazis in World War II, the Turks used their intended victims as slave laborers building a trans-Turkish railway for German business interests."


However, there are even more reliable sources than these. Vahakn N. Dadrian in his book “The History of the Armenian Genocide” (2003) makes the following observations and quotations in Chapter 10 The 1909 Twin Adana Massacres:

“At the 1910 Ittihadist (CUP) Congress at Saloniki, the secret discussions outside the formal sittings revolved around the plan for the coercive homogenization of Turkey, euphemistically called 2the complete Ottomanization of all Turkish subjects.2

British Ambassador Lowther observed that ‘to them “Ottoman” evidently means “Turk” and their present policy of “Ottomanization” is one of pounding the non-Turkish elements in a Turkish mortar3

Surveying the thrust of these decisions, the British Foreign Office in a report employed the words ‘to level’, with the forecast that ‘the Young Turks will endeavour to extend the “levelling” system to the Kurds and the Arabs’4….

The French Consul at Saloniki informed his Foreign Ministry in Paris that the Young Turks decided to emply force and violence, including massacres, as a last resort for the resolution of nationality conflicts.5

All these disclosures are confirmed by the Dean of Turkish historians who stated that, weary of the protracted Turko-Armenian conflict, Ittihad (CUP) would turn to the army to resolve the conflict by a force of arms. 6


It is also worth noting that no less a person than the Jew, Henry Morgenthau sr, who was the US Ambassador to Turkey, (biography at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Morgenthau_Sr.) wrote about the same evil plans and machinations in his reports back to the US and also in his book Ambassador Morgenthau's Story (1919) about the Armenian Genocide. The re-writers have attempted to belittle the statements made by Morgenthau as ‘black propaganda’, including Sonyel quoted above. Yet the basis for all of Morgenthau’s claims are all upheld as correct by the Dean of Turkish historians. So it would appear that Sonyel and his ilk are in fact the real ‘black propaganda’.

The Real Trails

So where do we need to look to find the thread that will bring us to the real powers behind these Young Turk scenes? We will start to move in the right direction if we go back to Caraso and his position of Lodge grandmaster. How does one become grandmaster of a Lodge, it is not the type of role that gets advertised in the job centre. The answer is that freemasons are supposed to ‘work their way up in the craft’ and advance from spiritual stage to spiritual stage. As they grow they are raised in rank and degree. Each degree has its own practices, known as rites. A major Lodge with several thousand members would have masons at all different levels (degrees) but there is only ONE master mason for the Lodge.

Therefore, for Caraso to have reached the position of Lodge grandmaster, the Lodge which granted and therefore OWNS the charter for his Macedonia Rissorta Lodge, is the Lodge that will have given him this appointment. In this case the charter was granted by the Grand Orient of Italy, through and not by the Istanbul Italia Lodge. This means that the grandmaster of the Istanbul Italia Lodge would have been at a similar rank to the granmaster of the Macedonia Rissorta. Therefore in this case ‘head office’ in Turin must have appointed Caraso.

We now have to ask the question, who was the power behind the Grand Orient Lodge of Italy at that time? We should start by looking at who was the founder of the Grand orient Lodge and who was its first grandmaster. The answer is surprising, in that we find the Lodge was established by no less a person than Napoleon Bonaparte, at the time that he conquered Italy. We find that after founding a chivalric order called The Order of the Iron Crown, Napoleon and his advisers continued.

“Furthermore, a Grand Orient Masonic lodge was founded on 20 June, 1805; Eugène was its Grand Master and Marescalchi the Grand Conservator. In the kingdom, for certain higher levels of responsibility, membership of Free Masonry was almost obligatory. On the other hand, a modern administration had been formed, and the young Italian agents (average age of under forty in), were soon integrated.”
(See www.napoleon.org/en/reading_room/biographies/files/marescalchi_melzi.asp for the fuller story)

Summing up this state of affairs we find that the charter for the Grand Orient of Italy (in Turin) was in fact granted its charter by the Grand Orient of France (in Paris). The first grandmaster named above, Eugene, is in fact Napoleon’s stepson, Eugene Beauharnais (biography at www.napoleonguide.com/soldiers_eugene.htm). The appointment of Eugene was made by the grandmaster of the Grand Orient of France.

At this time, 1805, no Jews were accepted into Lodges anywhere in Europe. In fact the first Jew to be accepted into any significant position within European Lodge, was a man by the name of Isaac Adolphe Cremieux (biography at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolphe_Cr%C3%A9mieux). He was very much seen as an assimilated Jew by his contemporaies and as a result managed to gain access and prominence in many important french institutions. According to the Encyclopedia Judaica however, his crowning achievement was in freemasonry.

“Adolphe Cremieux was not only a freemason from his early youth but in 1869 became the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of the Scottish Rite in Paris”.


Cremieux was the first Jewish grandmaster of a Grand (charter issuing) Lodge, and one which was international, being the charter issuer and therefore owner of several Grand Orient Lodges, including of course the Italian.

The Return of Mehmet Cavit

These apparently separate pieces come together when we re-visit Mehmet Cavit at the time of his death. Alexandre Jevakhoff further informs us that when Ataturk had decided on the death penalty for Cavit in 1926, for an alleged attempt on Ataturk’s life, an important aspect of Cavit comes to life.

“He had connections with French financial circles. And both the French government and the house of Rothschild appealed to Ankara on his behalf.”


Cavit was openly a zionist and he had major connections into Paris, so high that the French government intervened for his life.

Who could this connection have been? Given the year was 1926 there were only 9 members of the Rothschild dynasty that would have been of an adult age and of them only one was openly a rabid zionist, namely Edmond James de Rothschild. (Biography at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmond_James_de_Rothschild). It is worth noting that his wife was Adelheid and that she was born in Naples, given the importance of the Italian freemasonic influence.

Given that Caraso made his own personal fortune AFTER the revolution of 1908, the question arises as to who put the money up for this entire operation? The answer lies in the FACT that Rafik Bey was present in Paris in 1908 and therefore able to give an interview to Le Temps about his activities. He was part of the zionist cabal that was working over and through the Young Turk movement, receiving instructions and financing directly from Edmond James de Rothschild, who supported the movement as part of Rothschild’s plan to acquire the land of Palestine.
