An Analysis of the Four World Options Presented by the Tibetan DK Pt3

This is the third in a series of analytical papers examining the four world options presented by the Tibetan DK through Alice A. Bailey. The argument presented throughout this series is analytical and historical and therefore not advocacy. Companion papers dealing with option 2 and option 3 are available separately. This paper examines the historical window of 1945 to 1949 during which the Iron Curtain descended across Europe, and asks whether it was inevitable. Three independent voices, approaching the same strategic reality from entirely different perspectives, all recognised that it was not. General George S. Patton saw it from the battlefield. Winston Churchill saw it from the summit of Allied political leadership. The Tibetan DK mapped it from his esoteric analytical framework. All three were ignored or overruled. The consequences shaped the world for the remainder of the twentieth century and continue to reverberate today. This paper does not advocate for military action against Russia past or present. It presents a historical analysis of a closing strategic window, the voices that recognised it and the decisions that foreclosed the alternatives.
