Crestone

Crestone (Deep state hub?)
Locations	Colorado, United States
From the 1970s, The Rockefeller protegé Maurice Strong built the area up as an international religious crossroads by bringing two dozen different religious centers to the remote area, to be the center of a spiritual new world order.

The Town of Crestone is a Statutory Town (pop. 141 in 2020) in Saguache County, Colorado, United States. The Crestone area (including nearby Baca) is the location of some major deep state presence. From the 1970s, The Rockefeller protegé Maurice Strong built it up as an international religious crossroads by bringing two dozen different religious centers to the remote area.

Location

Crestone in Colorado

Crestone is located in the northern San Luis Valley at the base of the Sango de Cristo Mountains. Over the mountains to the north-east is NORAD’s underground bunkers in Colorado Springs.

History

From the 1870s through the 1930s it was a mining town, and then a center for ranching.

Its identity underwent a dramatic change in 1977, when Maurice Strong, a Canadian deep state actor who has been a loyal protege of the Rockefeller family from the 1950s onwards, and his wife, Hanne Marstrand Strong, purchased a large tract of land in the Crestone area, sight unseen. The Strongs discovered "to their surprise" that the enormous tract of land they acquired to fulfil their plan happens to sit atop what could be the largest untapped reservoir of water in the U.S.A.

In the late 1970’s, this land belonged to Arizona Land and Cattle Company (AZL), an agribusiness conglomerate that also owned a series of companies active in feedlots, land, oil and gas, engineering, commodities trading, and a bank. The principle AZL shareholder at that time was Adnan Kashoggi, the deep state operative infamous for his arms and drug dealing and money-laundering activities partially exposed during the Iran-Contra scandal.

According to a interview with Maurice Strong, in 1978, "one evening a gray-bearded stranger arrived uninvited at their townhouse. He introduced himself as Glen Anderson and told Hanne, "I've been waiting for you." He described to her the visions he had had while wandering in the nearby mountains. He saw that the leaders of all the world's religions would gather at the Baca. They'd build their temples and monasteries and churches, and political, educational, and corporate leaders would follow. Together, he told Hanne, these people would give shape to a new planetary order which would evolve from the economic collapse and environmental catastrophes that would sweep the globe in the years ahead.

The Strongs decided to give free land to religious groups that agreed to establish centers there. To coordinate the program, they founded the Manitou Foundation. Through the years it received significant support from donors who included Laurance and Mary Rockefeller. In the earliest stages of the Baca project, many of the local people viewed the arrival of the Strongs and their friends with suspicion. The place was called "Cult City" by kinder folk, and "a centre of cannibalism, ritual deaths, and communism" by those of a more fanciful mind.

People

A 1989 article notes: "The tiny Crestone phone book is riddled with such entries as "Crystal Sojourns" and "Ahimsa Life-style." It also includes some of the rich and famous the Strongs have brought to the area, including Robert O. Anderson, former chairman of Atlantic Richfield, and Najeeb E. Halaby, former head of Pan American Airways and father of the Queen of Jordan. Halaby has built a home and ziggurat--an ancient type of Assyrian temple--on land he bought from the Strongs near the sand dunes."

Actress Shirley MacLaine planned a large alternative healing center on her 180 acres in Baca, but abandoned the idea after "the local populace" made it clear that they would not exactly welcome the 3,000 New Agers she hoped to draw to a prospective centre on her 180-acre plot.

Maurice Strong	“What if a small group of world leaders were to conclude that the principal risk to the Earth comes from the actions of the rich countries? And if the world is to survive, those rich countries would have to sign an agreement reducing their impact on the environment. Will they do it? The group’s conclusion is ‘no’. The rich countries won’t do it. They won’t change. So, in order to save the planet, the group decides: Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about? This group of world leaders form a secret society to bring about a world collapse. It’s February. They’re all at Davos. These aren’t terrorists – they’re world leaders. They have positioned themselves in the world’s commodity and stock markets. They’ve engineered, using their access to stock exchanges, and computers, and gold supplies, a panic. Then they prevent the markets from closing. They jam the gears. They have mercenaries who hold the rest of the world leaders at Davos as hostage. The markets can’t close. The rich countries…?”	Maurice Strong
