The 1939 film of the 1900 "children's" novel The Wizard of Oz follows 12-year-old farm girl Dorothy Gale who lives on a Kansas farm with her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry, but dreams of a better place 'somewhere over the rainbow'. After being struck unconscious during a tornado, Dorothy dreams that she, her dog Toto and the farmhouse are transported to the magical Land of Oz by the tornado.
There, the Good Witch of the North, Glinda, advises Dorothy to follow the yellow brick road to the Emerald City and meet the Wizard of Oz, who can return her to Kansas. During her journey, she meets a Scarecrow, a Tin Man and a Cowardly Lion who all join her, hoping to receive from the wizard what they themselves lack (a brain, a heart and courage, respectively). All of this is done whilst also trying to avoid the Wicked Witch of the West and her attempt to get her sister's ruby (silver) slippers from Dorothy, who received them from Glinda.
It has long been assumed that the story is allegorical - but the usual, de facto explanation is that it is a simple political allegory representing the state of affairs in the USA in the 1890s but given author, L. Frank Baum's [1856-1919] background I find that difficult to believe - more disinformation to throw us off the scent perchance?
Another explanation is based upon Baum's membership of the Theosophical Society and tells of the spiritual journey to the ultimate truth in theosophy. This is quite plausible - however I feel there is another possible, more plausible one...
ALLEGORY
Although dressed-up as merely a simple, innocent children's story, the Wizard of Oz is an allegorical representation of the Crown Temple,
the controlling force behind the British Crown and all its foreign offshoots including the United States of America which was provably never really given independence from the 'Crown,' despite all appearances to the contrary.
The Wizard of Oz tells us who we are, our place in the New World Order and how we can end its oppression. In fact 'Oz' represents gold by weight (shortened form of ounces) and the yellow brick road, bricks or ingot bars of gold. So the 'Wizard of Oz' is one of the Elite, the owners of wealth, one of the 'powers that be' who tightly control every aspect of our day-to-day existence.
The character known as the scarecrow or 'straw-man' represents the non-existent ALL-CAPITALS legal fiction straw-man, in other words, the PERSON that the State created as a legal representation of you with the same spelling as your birth name.
And what does the straw man want most of all from the Wizard of Oz? A brain. No legal fiction PERSON has a brain because a PERSON is not a living entity. But all that the straw-man gets for his troubles instead of a brain from the great Oz is a certificate, a Birth Certificate perchance, as a newly legalized entity - as indeed we are all regarded in the eyes of the State.
He is so proud of his new 'legal' status, plus all the other legalisms he is graciously granted that he then becomes the true epitome of the brainless sack of straw, proudly clutching his Birth Certificate and defying all common sense. This tells us much about the state of affairs today and the mind-set of the utterly brainless populace duped into believing that they have rights of freedom from servitude.
Likewise the Tin Man. TIN is the Taxpayer Identification Number. The poor TIN Man is simply a mindless, robot-like worker striving to fulfil his master's wishes until his body literally seizes-up and stops functioning. He works himself to death because he has neither heart nor soul and is merely just an emotion-less creature robotically carrying out his daily tasks as if he were already dead. He is the horse pulling the carriages of the wealthy and the mule toiling under the yoke of slavery.
His masters keep him numb on the outside and heartless on the inside in order to control him totally. He is the physical representation of the millions of soulless entities that throughout the ages are born, serve the system from cradle to grave and die miserably in poverty.
The pitiful Cowardly Lion is always too scared to stand up for himself. Of course, he is a bully and picks on those smaller and less powerful than himself. He represents those people who on the outside appear to possess great courage, but in reality have none at all, the kind of person who will bully his way to a minor position of authority but who is really too much of a coward to stand up to those at the apex of the pyramids.
The Cowardly Lion will always back down and whimper when anyone of higher status challenges him. He desperately wants to be granted courage by the great Wizard, so he is awarded the 'medal' of 'official recognition' by the powers that be. These people thereby remain loyal to our oppressors in return for a few crumbs from the metaphorical table.
These are the armies of bullies with 'official' status who hide behind their 'officially' recognized authority and are people such as politicians, the military, the police and security forces and the legal profession who first and foremost protect the Masters of the Universe and their status and power, from the masses.
The character of Dorothy represents the ubiquitous 'everyman' on his / her journey through life trying to find happiness and contentment, in Dorothy's case her trying to get home to Kansas.
The two witches, Glinda the good witch and the Wicked Witch of the West, represent the perennial struggle between good and evil. The Wicked Witch of the West is a dig at western society and its appalling values. All she cares about is procuring the legendary 'silver shoes' worn by Dorothy which she believes will increase her powers. 'Silver shoes' represents the wealth of the masses, that is silver the precious metal, representing our meagre wealth and our constant chasing of illusory dreams whilst the Elite do everything they can to deprive us of as much of our financial resources as they can.
The journey through the field of poppies represents the fact that the Crown (and to a lesser extent the US government) controls the world-wide drug trade and has done so for centuries. Even in Baum's days more than a century ago, there had been the long and oppressive Opium Wars. The Crown already had vast experience, for example in the conquering of all of China with drugs, so why not the rest of the world?
And who was it who finally exposed the Wizard for what he really was? Toto, Dorothy's small dog. 'In toto' in Latin means 'in total, all together'. It is significant that Toto is not scared of the Wizard's theatrics, despite his diminutive stature compared to the Wizard.
The Wizard's smoke, flames and holographic projections are simply designed to frighten people (we the masses) into doing his every bidding. 'Toto', representing us 'all' (when we get our collective acts together) simply looks behind the curtain, sees that it is all one big illusion and begins barking to draw it to the attention of the others (the rest of the world). This enables them to see the Wizard as he really is, just an
ordinary, vulnerable, defeat-able man controlling the levers that create the illusion of his non-existent power and authority.
So, metaphorically the veil hiding the truth behind the ultimate flimsiness of the New World Order is removed and the Wizard's illusion is easily exposed.
And the moral of the story?
We as a group do not realize how much power we really have, to expose and thereby end the current state of affairs. How loud can we all bark to draw the attention of the rest of humanity to the scam being perpetrated by the fraudsters and criminals who control the world and our every move?
In reality, their façade is every bit as flimsy as the one erected by the seemingly 'all- powerful' Wizard behind the curtain. All we need is a brain, a heart, a soul and courage and if we can learn to somehow work together, 'in toto' we can change the world.
Footnote...
'The Wizard of Oz' Used in Monarch Mind Control?
Almost all documentation relating to the MK Ultra project and Mind Control mention the importance of the Wizard of Oz. In the 1940s, the story was reportedly chosen by members of the US intelligence community to provide a thematic foundation for their trauma-based mind control program. The movie was edited and given a different meaning to enable it to be used as a tool to reinforce the programming on the
victims. Here are some examples taken from Fritz Springmeier's 'Total Mind Control Slave'...
The close relationship between Dorothy and her dog is a very subtle connection between the satanic cults use of animals (familiars). A Monarch slave child will be allowed to bond with a pet. The child will want to bond with a pet anyway because people are terrifying to it by this point. Then the pet is killed to traumatize the child.
Monarch slaves are taught to 'follow the yellow brick road.' No matter what fearful things lie ahead, the Monarch slave must follow the Yellow Brick Road which is set out before them by their master.
The rainbow-with its seven colours, has long had the occult significance of being a great spiritual, hypnotic device.
Dorothy is looking for a place where there is no trouble, which is 'somewhere over the rainbow.' To escape pain, 'alters' go over the rainbow. (This is a.k.a. in Alice In Wonderland programming (another MK Ultra process) as 'going through the looking glass.')
'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' is probably the most dissociative song ever written and is often played in movies during violent or traumatizing events (see the movie Face-Off). The strange effect produced, where the violence doesn't seem real anymore, is exactly how dissociation works on mind-control victims. We may also speculate that the scene where Dorothy falls asleep in a poppy field is a reference to the use of heroin to relax and manipulate the victims of mind-control. Also consider the snow falling from the sky that awakens Dorothy from her slumber. Could this be a reference to cocaine?

"Likewise the Tin Man. TIN is the Taxpayer Identification Number..."
The Taxpayer Identification Number is used by the Internal Revenue Service. For most of us, it is our Social Security Number.
"The Wonderful Wizard of OZ" was published in 1900. predating the 16th Amendment, the creation of the Internal Revenue Service and the creation of the Social Security Administration.
In short, the John Hamer is way off base. The Taxpayer Identification Number did not exist when the book was written; thus, L. Frank Baum could not have been referring to it.
