WEARS WAR — During the first week of August 1964, warships under the command of U.S. Adm. George Stephen Morrison allegedly came under attack while patrolling Vietnam’s Tonkin Gulf. This attack was later called the Tonkin Gulf Incident. Although this attack probably never took place, it was used as an excuse to start the Vietnam War[1] “…without a Congressional Declaration of War.”

Meanwhile, in the early months of 1965, an astounding number of musicians, singers and songwriters suddenly moved to a geographically and socially isolated community known as Laurel Canyon in Los Angeles. Within months, the “hippie/flower child” movement started in Laurel Canyon and began to protest the Vietnam War [2]. This article will show that this so-called peace movement was likely controlled by the same military/intelligence community that instigated the Vietnam War.

MUSICIANS

One of the most iconic, controversial, critically acclaimed and influential figures to take up residence in Laurel Canyon was Jim Morrison of the Doors. Jim Morrison also happens to be the son of the aforementioned Adm. George Stephen Morrison. So while the father actively conspired to fabricate an incident that started the Vietnam War, his son moved to Laurel Canyon and positioned himself to become an icon of the peace/anti-war crowd.[3]

John Phillips also moved to Laurel Canyon and played a major role in spreading the emerging “counterculture” across America. Phillips helped organize the Monterrey Pop Festival and wrote the popular song San Francisco, which were both instrumental in luring the disenfranchised to San Francisco to create the Haight-Ashbury phenomenon and the 1967 Summer of Love. John Phillips was the son of U.S. Marine Corp. Cpt. Claude Andrew Phillips, and attended a series of elite military prep schools in the Washington, D.C. area, culminating in his appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis.[4]

Ellen Naomi Cohen, better known as Cass Elliot, was a childhood friend of John Phillips’s nephew. Elliot was born in Baltimore but grew up in Alexandria and attended the same high school as Phillips. John Phillips, Michelle Phillips, Denny Doherty and Cass Elliot formed the highly popular Laurel Canyon band the Mamas and the Papas.[5] […]

  1. In hindsight, its pretty obvious that the “Hippy Revolution” was setup by the powers that be. All those dissident voices support the NWO plainly in their older ages and many like Phillips went from military life to being a primary voice for the counter culture. I mean how does David Crosby become part of the Byrds with no musical talent//? ( The Jewish concept of putting their own incompetents in positions of influence who will then learn as they go)

    • Indeed,echoes of the ‘Constantinople Letter’ in undergirding the Khazarian agenda of seizing the high ground.Why wouldn’t infiltrating popular music be within that scope?Reading ‘Weird Scenes inside The Canyon’ sure fleshes this out.
