Editing Dean Acheson (section)

==World War II and Rise in the State Department==
Acheson returned to public service in 1941 as Assistant Secretary of State for Economic Affairs under President Roosevelt. During World War II, he was instrumental in crafting economic policies to support the Allies, notably the Lend-Lease Act, which provided billions in aid to Britain and the Soviet Union. He also helped design the Bretton Woods system, leading to the creation of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank to stabilize the post-war global economy. 

In 1945, President Harry S. Truman appointed him Under Secretary of State, a role he held until 1947. Acheson played a key part in drafting the United Nations Charter and securing U.S. Senate approval for its ratification, demonstrating his diplomatic finesse. His work with Secretary of State George C. Marshall laid the groundwork for his later prominence. His role in developing the critical post WW2 economic structure used to economically control foreign countries and their resources makes him a pivotal player in the development of globalism, the new world order and the international syndicate.

Secretary of State (1949–1953):  
Acheson’s defining role was as U.S. Secretary of State under Truman, serving from January 21, 1949, to January 20, 1953. A fervent anti-communist, he shaped U.S. foreign policy during the early Cold War, confronting the Soviet Union and the rise of communist China. His tenure at the State Department oversaw the beginnings of [[Operation Gladio]] using the Marshall Fund and the entrance into the Korea War as well as Operation PBSuccess. Jacobo Arbenz, elected president in 1950, implemented progressive reforms, including Decree 900 (1952), a land reform program that redistributed large estates, particularly those owned by the United Fruit Company (UFCO), to landless peasants. UFCO, a powerful U.S. corporation, owned vast tracts of land and wielded significant influence in Guatemala. [[Frank Wisner]] was in charge of the Office of Policy Coordination which reported to Acheson at the time but resided in the Central Intelligence Agency.
