Fabian Window
The Fabian Society window was commissioned by George Bernard Shaw
as a statement of intent. It shows him and Sidney
Webb hammering the world into their chosen shape by manipulating the The Left At the bottom is Shaw thumbing his
nose at the fools worshipping books on Socialism. They are Lenin's Useful Idiots The clearest pointer to Shaw's
evil is the Wolf in Sheep's
Clothing

This is the
stained-glass window from the Beatrice Webb House in Surrey, England, former
headquarters of the Fabian Society. It was designed by George Bernard Shaw and
depicts Sidney Webb and Shaw striking the Earth with hammers to "REMOULD IT
NEARER TO THE HEART'S DESIRE," a line from Omar Khayyam. Note the wolf in
sheep's clothing in the Fabian crest above the globe. The window is now on
display at the London School of Economics (LSE), which was
founded by Sydney and Beatrice Webb.
"The window was subsequently stolen from the house in 1978,"
says LSE's archivist, Sue Donnelly. "It surfaced in
Phoenix, Arizona, soon after, but then disappeared again until it suddenly
resurfaced at a sale at Sotheby's in July 2005." The window was purchased by the Webb Memorial Trust and now
is on loan to the LSE where it is displayed in the schools Shaw Library. In
April of 2006, the window was officially unvieled [ sic ] by a ceremony attended
by British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who is a member of the Fabian Society.

The Fabians originally were an elite group of intellectuals who
formed a semi-secret society for the purpose of bringing socialism to the world.
Whereas Communists wanted to establish socialism quickly through violence and
revolution, the Fabians preferred to do it slowly through propaganda and
legislation. The word socialism was not to be used. Instead, they would speak of
benefits for the people such as welfare, medical care, higher wages, and better
working conditions. In this way, they planned to accomplish their objective
without bloodshed and even without serious opposition. They scorned the
Communists, not because they disliked their goals, but because they disagreed
with their methods. To emphasize the importance of gradualism, they adopted the
turtle as the symbol of their movement. The three most prominent leaders in the
early days were Sidney and Beatrice Webb and George Bernard Shaw. [2] A
stained-glass window from the Beatrice Webb House in Surrey, England is
especially enlightening. Across the top appears the last line from Omar Khayyam:
To grasp this sorry scheme of things entire,
Would we not shatter it to bits, and then
Remould it nearer to the heart's desire!
Beneath the line Remould it nearer to the heart's desire, the mural depicts Shaw and Webb striking the earth with hammers. Across the bottom, the masses kneel in worship of a stack of books advocating the theories of socialism. Thumbing his nose at the docile masses is H.G. Wells who, after quitting the Fabians, denounced them as "the new Machiavellians." The most revealing component, however, is the Fabian crest which appears Between Shaw and Webb. It is a wolf in sheep's clothing!
Can it be any plainer? The BBC manages not to know or, more likely not to tell but then it is run by Communists, Traitors, and Fabians.
