CAMBRIDGE, UK, May 25 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Microsoft mogul Bill Gates, known for including population control support in his many recent charitable givings, has launched an ambitious project to mimic the Rhodes scholarship program. Gates intends to offer nearly $300 million (CDN) to bring the world’s brightest students to Cambridge University. The Times reports that Gates’ charity foundation will set up a permanent foundation that will finance 230 scholarships in Cambridge, where a Bill Gates House will be established as a students’ centre.
The Rhodes scholarship at Oxford is known for the many world political leaders that have passed through the program as well as the definite socialist bent of its graduates. Rhodes scholar Bob Rae, the former NDP premier of Ontario was instrumental in commencing a lawsuit against the Canadian pro-life movement. Bill Clinton’s Rhodes scholar associate, Strobe Talbott, wrote in Time Magazine that “nationhood as we know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single global authority” (Time, July 20, 1992). In 1960, Rhodes Scholar Walt Whitman Rostow (CFR) claimed that urgent imperatives “argue strongly for movement in the direction of federalized world organization under effective international law” and for “effective international control of military power.” The real world problem, said Rostow, is “national sovereignty,” and “it is therefore an American interest to see an end to nationhood as it has been historically defined.” Incredibly, Rostow was given a top spot in the Kennedy State Department.
