New Audio and Video: Jim Jones & Jonestown dying for Marxist-Leninsm
Audio & Video Tapes from Jonestown ^ | Chuck Noblett

Posted on 12/15/2008 10:33:00 PM PST by ChuckNoblett

Some interesting new audio and video of Jim Jones and the citizens of Jonestown doing, among other things, declaring that their "Revolutionary Suicide" is to further the cause of Marxist-Leninism.

They took a vote three weeks before Ryan arrived and unanimously voted for it. It includes some video of members specifically discussing dying for Maxist-Leninism.

Also, unseen VIDEO (not just audio) of the various members singing the Soviet National Anthem (note: I actually have them doing this 2 times all the way through and the third time for just the last part of the song).

Also includes more previously heard audio, such as Jim's decision in the 1950s that "How Can I demonstate my Marxism? The thought was, infiltrate the church."

Also, Jim declaring a day before Ryan arrives that he's not going to let the opportunity slip by to shoot Ryan. Note that the video contains excepts of Jim using quite a bit of salty language (he cussed worse than any Marine), including the N-word, which Jim used repeatedly.

My father-in-law was a religion reporter for the San Francisco Examiner back in 1972 and tried to expose Jones when he was in Ukiah. Out of eight stories, only four ran, the others were not published after the Temple protested outside the newspaper. To this day, the Chronicle (which replaced the Examiner) nor most of the MSM will not own up to this, nor admit that anyone prior to 1977 tried to expose Jones before he went to the jungle and killed all those people.

The San Francisco Chronicle’s Marshall Kilduff tried to publish his expose on the Temple in 1976.

One problem: The Paper’s City Editor (Steve Gavin) that had been blocking his publication actually turned out to be a People’s Temple member!

The entire affair is almost too bizarre to fathom.

Regarding the newsbusters article above, I should add that it the video I posted also contains a little snippet of a rarely seen color video of Jones and Rosalynn Carter standing on stage together shaking hands at a political rally.

I also have the copy of the Jones and Rosalynn Carter correspondence and the audio of Rosalynn calling Jim on the phone (which the Peoples Temple recorded), but it’s not in this video.

Also note regarding the above that Jones didn’t just bring those accolades to Guyana with them, but showed them to several people to impress them. Including the USSR embassy in Georgetown. They showed them pictures of Jim with Mondale and Fidel Castro, and Rosalynn’s handwritten note to Jim (along with other items) to impress the Soviets. It worked. As you can hear some of the audio of the Soviets’ subsequent delegation to Jonestown in the video I just linked.

The real, or more largely accurate, story about the Peoples Temple’s long history and goals is coming out with the wider release of their tapes and documents.

They were rather radical communists and atheists that had used the old Pentecostal recruiting methods Jim had observed in his rural Indiana childhood to recruit newbies to the cause. They also employed organized weekly bus trips to places where they conducted fake faith healings for the locals and sold “blessed” prayer cloths to try to raise money. While this was overtly dishonest, especially given their atheist beliefs, they pretty brazenly employed an ends-justify-the-means decision-making process. If selling fake hopes or even beating members to enforce discipline would make their utopian vision for humanity more likely in 100 years, then it was worth doing. People being out a little money or hurting a bit was a small price to pay, so the reasoning goes.

Advancing the cause of revolution is their morality-the justification they use for every atrocity, every abomination.

Revolutionary suicide.. So what they though troops were coming. Or was it purely Little Stalin’s psychosis?

That music from One Flew Over the Cuckoos nest....creepy.
