DOWNLOAD – Changing Commands: The Betrayal of America’s Military

“Betrayal of our military ultimately means betrayal of the nation.” With that warning, John F. McManus delivers Changing Commands: The Betrayal of America’s Military, a hard-hitting account of how America’s armed forces have been reshaped to serve not national defense but global governance. From its opening pages, the book insists that the fate of U.S. sovereignty cannot be separated from who directs its soldiers, ships, and weapons. This is where the Council on Foreign Relations, the United Nations, and high-placed American “Insiders” converge, working to change commands at the very core of our republic.

McManus documents the pattern with evidence pulled from committee reports, UN resolutions, and presidential directives. He demonstrates how wars were staged to consolidate political power; how public revulsion at bloodshed was redirected into trust for the UN; how treaties and pacts have bound American troops to foreign agendas without constitutional declarations of war. He indicts the deliberate erosion of command authority — placing women in combat, redefining service roles, normalizing UN control — while Congress’s exclusive power to declare war is bypassed. The cumulative effect, McManus argues, is nothing less than converting the U.S. military into the UN’s globocop.

A special appendix on the Council on Foreign Relations situates the story in its broader context: the CFR’s origin, its semi-secret influence, and its guiding role in world government strategy. By the book’s close, the betrayal is undeniable, the stakes unmistakable: disarmament for Americans, armament for the UN, and the steady loss of our sovereignty.

Written for patriotic Americans and members of the armed forces, Changing Commands presses the case now — because once military command is surrendered, reclaiming independence may be impossible. (1995, 234pp, pb)
