from the book
A Century of War
by F William Engdahl
1993

p6
Following the War [World War I] Britain and France carved up the Middle East... Britain obtaining protectorate status over Palestine (Israel) and the important oil-producing areas, especially Iraq. Their protectorate over Palestine set the stage for their planned later creation in that area of a Jewish homeland, which intent was proclaimed to British Zionists in a letter from Britain's Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour to Walter Lord Rothschild, representing the English Federation of Zionists. The letter became known as the Balfour Declaration, which was not implemented until after World War 2. The British intent was to project their control into the oil-laden Middle East by creating a Jewish-dominated Palestine, beholden to Britain for survival, and surrounded by a pack of squabbling, balkanized Arab states.

During the Versailles Treaty talks after the war [WWI], Round Table members Lionel Curtis, Balfour, Milner, and others, formed an above-ground group called the Royal Institute of International Affairs for the purpose of coordinating Anglo-American cooperative efforts. They decided also to form an American branch, but gave it a different name in order to obscure its antecedents. Thus was born the Council on Foreign Relations, originally staffed by J.P. Morgan men and financed by Morgan money. The CFR, of course, is still very much with us.

p15
After 1971, a White House policy was initiated, under the effective control of Henry Kissinger, to control the economies of the nations and to reduce their populations, rather than to facilitate technology transfer and industrial growth. The strategy was to force the price of the cartelized world oil up by about a factor of four, recover the Arab oil receipts back into the British and American central banks, and lend them to the Third World to acquire control over those countries. To this end, the Bilderberg group, containing the world's top financial and political insiders, met privately in Saltsjoebaden, Sweden in May 1973 to discuss how the coming flood of oil dollars was to be handled. Mr. Engdahl lists many of the participants, including Kissinger, George Ball, David Rockefeller, and others. Then in October of that same year, the "Yom Kippur" war broke out, with Syria and Egypt invading Israel, with the U.S. supporting Israel, and the British staying demurely neutral. Kissinger performed his "shuttle diplomacy" among the participants, to assure the war followed the script previously worked out in Sweden. The Arab OPEC countries declared an embargo on all oil shipments to the U.S. and mainland Europe (but not Britain), and started cranking up the price, which rose by the scheduled factor of four by the end of the year. Nixon, drowning in the Watergate affair, tried to get the Treasury to find a way to get the Arabs to reduce their prices, but was rebuffed, and advised to support the "recycling" of the oil dollars at the current prices. Nixon agreed, and the deed was done. The great bulk of the petro-dollars were repatriated in purchasing U.S. government debt and in deposit accounts in Chase Manhattan, Citibank, et al. From there they were loaned to the Third World, which could not otherwise buy the fuel they needed to survive, whence many of those countries became enslaved to the bankers, and forced to follow their edicts on how to run their countries.

p17
American officials in the mid 70s openly claimed in news conferences that they were "neo-Malthusians." Malthus, says Engdahl, was an English clergyman who, in 1798, wrote an essay claiming that human populations expanded geometrically, while their means of subsistence expanded only linearly. Hence, populations must be limited, and, if necessary, governments should enhance the operations of nature to produce the needed mortality. Consistent with such pseudo-science, Henry Kissinger produced, in April 1974, the classified National Security Council Study Memorandum 200 (NSSM 200), directed to Washington high officialdom, defining a program aimed at population reduction in Third World countries possessing needed raw materials, since growing populations with aspirations for a better standard of living give rise to high prices for such materials. Kissinger named 13 target countries for population control, including Brazil, India, Egypt, Mexico, Ethiopia, Columbia, and others.

p17
[In the 1970s] most of the Third World, including the bulk of South America, Africa, and the Asian underbelly, unable to afford the oil they needed, found not only their industrial development stopped, but even food purchases curtailed, and starvation threatening. Far from living standards continuing the growth begun during the 50's and 60's, many of these countries were being pushed back to a condition of bare subsistence.

p20
In the Third World, not only did the purchase of nuclear power plants become out of the question, but bare survival was in doubt. Those countries had been suckered into floating interest rate contracts on their Eurodollar loans, and those interest rates had now gone out of sight. Oil costs were up 140% after the Iran Oil Shock, and the U.S. dollar itself, mandatorily required for making oil purchases, was now becoming more expensive against other currencies. The great bulk of the Third World was essentially instantaneously bankrupted.

... The International Monetary Fund became the collection agency for the big banks.

... By 1987, the amount then owed [by third world countries] in principal and interest amounted in total to some $1.3 trillion dollars, a sum virtually impossible ever to repay, even under healthy economic conditions.

Tragedy and Hope
by Carroll Quigley
1966

p23
Carroll Quigley

The greatest of [the international banking] dynasties were the descendants of Meyer Amschel Rothschild (1743-1812) of Frankfort.

p23
Carroll Quigley

[The most important international banking families] include Baring, Lazard, Erlanger, Warburg, Schroder, Seligman, the Speyers, Mirabaud, Mallet, Fould, and above all Rothschild and Morgan.

 

p27
The concept behind the movement that produced the elitist control structure, the core of which remains hidden today, was elucidated by John Ruskin, who was appointed to the fine arts professorship at Oxford in 1870. He made an immense impact on the undergraduates, all of them members of the privileged, ruling class in England.

"He told them that they were the possessors of a magnificent tradition of education, beauty, rule of law, freedom, decency, and self discipline, but that this tradition could not be saved ... unless it could be extended to the lower classes in England itself and to the non-English masses throughout the world. If this precious tradition were not extended to these two great majorities, the minority of upper-class Englishmen would ultimately be submerged by these majorities and the tradition lost."

Listening transfixed in his audience was Cecil Rhodes, later to be the prime exploiter of the diamond (Dc Beers Consolidated Mines) and gold (Consolidated Gold Fields) resources in South Africa, who, with the help of financing by Lord Rothschild, attained an annual income in the middle 1890's of "at least a million pounds sterling a year (then about five million dollars) which was spent so freely for his mysterious purposes that he was usually overdrawn on his account. These purposes centered on his desire to federate the English-speaking peoples and to bring all the habitable portions of the world under their control. For this purpose Rhodes left part of his great fortune o found the Rhodes Scholarships at Oxford in order to spread the English ruling class tradition throughout the English-speaking world.

... [Cecil] Rhodes died in 1902, but the secret society retained control of his fortune, which was added to by funds of other supporters, including Alfred Beit and Sir Abe Bailey. Milner became the chief Rhodes trustee, and, during his governorship in South Africa (18971905) he recruited young men from Oxford, etc., to assist him, men whom he later helped "into positions of influence in government and international finance, and [who] became the dominant influence in British imperial and foreign affairs up to 1939." Originally known as Milner's Kindergarten, "In 1909-1913 they organized semisecret groups, known as Round Table Groups, in the chief British dependencies and the United States. These still function in eight countries .... In 1919 they founded the Royal Institute of International Affairs (Chatham House) for which the chief financial supporters were Sir Abe Bailey and the Astor family (owners of The Times). Similar Institutes of International Affairs were established in the chief British dominions and in the United States (where it is known as the Council on Foreign Relations) in the period 1919-1927j

p29
... Carroll Quigley identifies Round Table leaders in Canada, South Africa, India, and elsewhere.

The power and influence of [the] Rhodes-[Alfred] Milner group[Round Table] in British Imperial Affairs and in foreign policy since 1889, although not widely recognized, can hardly be exaggerated. We might mention as an example that this group dominated The Times from 1890 to 1912 and has controlled it completely since 1912 (except for the years 1919-1922).

p30
Carroll Quigley

More than fifty years ago the [JP] Morgan firm decided to infiltrate the Left-wing political movements in the United States. This was relatively easy to do, since these groups were starved for funds and eager for a voice to reach the people. Wall Street supplied both.

p30
Carroll Quigley

The original purpose for establishing [The New Republic magazine] was to provide an outlet for the progressive Left and to guide it quietly in an Anglophile direction. This latter task was entrusted to a young man, only four years out of Harvard, but already a member of the mysterious Round Table group, which has played a major role in directing England's foreign policy since its formal establishment in 1909. This new recruit, Walter Lippmann, has been, from 1914 to the present [1966], the authentic spokesman in American journalism for the Establishments on both sides of the Atlantic in international affairs.

p31
The organization of tax-exempt fortunes of international financiers into foundations [was] to be used for educational, scientific, and other public purposes. [Wall Street elites] had to adjust to a good many government actions thoroughly distasteful to the group. The chief of these were in taxation law, above all else, in the inheritance tax. These tax laws drove the great private fortunes dominated by Wall Street into tax-exempt foundations, which became a major link in the Establishment network between Wall Street, the Ivy League, and the federal government.

... The foundations managed to acquire control over the primary Ivy League colleges, including Harvard, Yale, Columbia, and Princeton.

p42
Carroll Quigley

The substantive powers of the world were in the hands of investment bankers ... who remained largely behind the scenes in their own unincorporated private banks. These formed a system of international cooperation and national dominance which was more private, more powerful, and more secret than that of their agents in the central banks.

The Naked Capitalist
by W. Cleon Skousen
1970
(which is a review of Carroll Quigley's 1966 book Tragedy and Hope)

p45
Cleon Skousen quoting Carroll Quigley

During the past two centuries when the peoples of the world were gradually winning their political freedom from the dynastic monarchies, the major banking families of Europe and America were actually reversing the trend by setting up new dynasties of political control through the formation of international financial combines... these banking dynasties had learned that all governments must have sources of revenue from which to borrow in times of emergency. They had also learned that by providing such funds from their own private resources, they could make both kings and democratic leaders tremendously subservient to their will. It had proven to be a most effective means of controlling political appointments and deciding political issues.

p46
Cleon Skousen

The "international" (or "merchant" or "private" or "investment") bankers differ from legitimate commercial or savings bankers, particularly regarding the former's preoccupation with handling government debt, and its efforts to convince both government and business that the bankers could manage government debt better than government could.

p47
Cleon Skousen

The dynastic 'banker families' in England had established their monopoly control over finance by setting up the Bank of England as a privately controlled institution which had the appearance of an official government institution. Similar centers of financial control had been set up in France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland.

p47
Cleon Skousen quoting Carroll Quigley

The international bankers intended to use the financial power of Britain and the United States to force all the major countries to operate "through central banks free from all political control, with all questions of international finance to be settled by agreements by such central banks without interference from governments.

p48
Cleon Skousen quoting Carroll Quigley

The goals of the dynastic bankers have been nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. he apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basle, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporation.

p48
Cleon Skousen quoting Carroll Quigley

The goals of the dynastic bankers as been nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. he apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basle, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporation. Each central bank, in the hands of men like Montagu Norman of the Bank of England, Benjamin Strong of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, Charles Rist of the Bank of France, and Hjalmar Schacht of the Reichsbank, sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world.

p49
Cleon Skousen

There is a growing volume of evidence that the highest centers of political and economic power have been forcing the entire human race toward a global, socialist, dictatorial-oriented society.
And what has been most baffling about it has been the fact that this drift toward dictatorship with its inevitable obliteration of a thousand years of struggle toward human freedom, is being plotted, promoted, and implemented by the leaders of free nations and the super-rich of those nations whose positions of affluence would seem to make them the foremost beneficiaries of the free enterprise, property-oriented, open society in which so much progress has been made.

p49
Cleon Skousen

The world hierarchy of the dynastic superrich is out to take over the entire planet, doing it with Socialistic legislation where possible, but having no reluctance to use Communist revolution where necessary.

p51
Cleon Skousen

Power from any source tends to create an appetite for additional power. Power coming from wealth tends to create an appetite for political power, and vice versa. It was almost inevitable that the superrich would one day aspire to control not only their own wealth, but the wealth of the whole world. To achieve this, they were perfectly willing to feed the ambitions of the power-hungry political conspirators who were committed to the overthrow of all existing governments, and the establishment of a central world-wide dictatorship along socialist lines.

This, of course, was a risky business for the Anglo-American secret society. The super-rich were gambling on the expectation that when the violence and reconstruction had been completed by the political conspirators, the super-rich would then take over ... to guide mankind hopefully and compulsively into a whole new era of universal peace and universal prosperity.

To take such a risk, the cadre of the super-rich had to ignore the most elementary aspects of the ferocity of the left-wing conspiratorial mentality. Mao Tse-tung has articulated the basic Communist conviction that political power comes from the barrel of a gun, and once they seize control it is their expressed intention to use the gun to prevent the super-rich or anyone else from taking that control away from them. [Similarly, Hitler repeatedly told Britain that he intended to realize his goals by going to war, not by diplomatic negotiation.

p51
Cleon Skousen

The secret society of the London-Wall Street [banking] axis ... [has] attempted to control the global conspiratorial groups by feeding them vast quantities of money for their revolutionary work, and then financing their opposition if they seemed to be getting out of control.

p53
Rene Wormser, in the book 'Foundations: Their Power and Influence'

Foundations use their funds to subvert and control American education.

p54
Rene Wormser, in the book 'Foundations: Their Power and Influence'

By 1956 the Ford Foundation had spent more than one billion dollars in contributions to 'education' and had thereby become a well-nigh all-encompassing influence over hundreds of colleges and universities.

p55
Cleon Skousen

Official Ford Foundation reports show that millions upon millions are being poured into revolutionary, communist-dominated or global collectivist organizations under the direction of McGeorge Bundy.

p56
Cleon Skousen

[Bilderberg Group meetings] are held each year as an international master planning conclave. They are secret and attendance is restricted to invited 'guests.' These turn out to be about 100 men from the top inner circle representing the four major dimensions of power: the international banking dynasties, their corporations involved in vast, international enterprises, the American tax-exempt foundations, and the establishment representatives who have gained high offices in government, especially the United States government. These conferences always have the same chairman - his royal highness Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, who, with his family, owns a massive fortune in the Royal Dutch Shell Oil Corporation. Then, close at hand, will always be David Rockefeller representing his family and especially Standard Oil of New Jersey which is one of the largest corporate structures in existence. It is interesting that in the past two decades when political revolutions have occurred in various parts of the world, these two companies usually end up with all of the oil and natural gas concessions. This has been largely true in Africa, the Middle East, South America, and the Far East. These are also the companies whose installations seem to be virtually off limits to the bombers in both sides of any recent war.

p58
Trusted [Bilderberg Group] members of the major media are invited, but also never report on the substance of the proceedings ... the New York Times, the Atlanta Constitution, Look magazine, and Life magazine. Similar personages continue to represent the major newspapers and TV networks... A few familiar names on that list were Lloyd Bentsen, Tom Foley, David Gergen, Richard Holbrooke, Peter Jennings, Henry Kissinger, and David Rockefeller.

p58
Mr. Skousen summarizes that the elites who wish to set up their world dictatorship recognize their main enemy to be the great middle class of the United States, which, being made up of individuals who have acquired a little education, property, and independence, will fight strenuously to keep them. The strategy of the elites is to squeeze the middle class to death by creating or exacerbating the major problems facing the society, including class warfare, crime, education, moral decay, etc., and then creating in response spurious governmental programs to "cure" the problems that they just created.

Tax Exempt Foundations
by William H Mcllhany II

minutes from the 1911 trustees meeting of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace

[The trustees of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, at a 1911 meeting] raised a question. And they discussed the question and the question was specific, 'Is there any means known to man more effective than war, assuming you wish to alter the life of an entire people?' And they discussed this and at the end of a year they came to the conclusion that there was no more effective means to that end known to man. So, they raised question number two, and the question was, 'How do we involve the United States in a war?

minutes from the 1911 trustees meeting of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace

[The Carnegie trustees upon encountering resistance from established historians, set about] to build their own stable of kept historians, and they even got a working agreement with the Guggenheim Foundation to grant scholarships to their selected candidates who were seeking graduate degrees .... The extent to which the Carnegie trustees were able to build their stable of submissive historians is significant .... Though encountering resistance at first, this group succeeded gradually in capturing more influence in the American Historical Association and affiliated circles.

p63
William H Mcllhany II, commenting on the minutes from the 1911 trustees meeting of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace

It is important to remember that the [Carnegie Endowment supported U.S. entry into the war, not for any patriotic purpose, but so that the war would provide an excuse for, if not necessitate, Andrew Carnegie's goal of British-American regional government.

p63
Andrew Carnegie,1893

Time may dispel many pleasing illusions and destroy many noble dreams, but it shall never shake my belief that the wound caused by the wholly unlooked-for and undesired separation of the mother from her child is not to bleed forever. Let men say what they will, therefore, I say that as surely as the sun in the heavens once shown upon Britain and America united, so surely is it one morning to rise, shine upon, and greet again the reunited state, the British-American union.

p65
Norman Dodd, the Research Director of the 1954 House of Representatives' Special Committee to Investigate Tax Exempt Foundations (the Reece Committee), speaking about a meeting with Rowan Gaither, the president of the Ford Foundation in December 1953

Rowan Gaither, the president of the Ford Foundation:

Of course, [Mr. Dodd,] you know that we at the executive level here were, at one time or another, active in either the OSS, the State Department, or the European Economic Administration. During those times, and without exception, we operated under directives issued by the White House. We are continuing to be guided by just such directives. Would you like to know the substance of these directives?

 

Norman Dodd, the Research Director of the 1954 House of Representatives' Special Committee to Investigate Tax Exempt Foundations (the Reece Committee):

And I said, 'Yes, Mr. Gaither, I'd like to know.

 

Rowan Gaither, the president of the Ford Foundation:

The substance was to the effect that we should make every effort to so alter life in the United States as to make possible a comfortable merger with the Soviet Union.

p66
Cecil Rhodes attached to his will a "Confession of Faith"

The idea gliding and dancing before our eyes like a willow - a wish at last frames itself into a plan. Why should we not join ... a secret society with but one object: the furtherance of the British Empire, for the bringing of the whole uncivilized world under British rule, for the recovery of the United States, for the making the Anglo-Saxon race but one Empire.

p68
The real objective [of the global banking elite] is to reorganize the world by socializing its governments and then merging them into one, by, for example, altering life in the United States such as to make possible a comfortable merger with the Soviet Union.

I suggest a radical alternative scheme for the next century: the creation of a common currency for all the industrial democracies, with a common monetary policy and a joint Bank of Issue to determine that monetary policy .... How can independent states accomplish that? They need to turn over the determination of monetary policy to a supranational body.

It is highly doubtful whether the American public, to take just one example, could ever accept that countries with oppressive autocratic regimes should vote on the monetary policy that would affect monetary conditions in the United States .... For such a bold step to work at all, it presupposes a certain convergence of political values.

Some dilution or leveling off of the sovereignty system as it prevails in the world today must take place to the immediate disadvantage of those nations which now possess the preponderance of power ....

The gist of the game of bailout is to simultaneously (1) deliver into the clutches of the New World Order (both) the Third World countries, whose leaders are to be the recipients of riches from the taxpayers of the developed countries, riches that they are expected to squander and never pay back, but thereby remain in thrall to the bankers forever, and (2) drag down the economies and comforts of the strong countries to the point, for example, of economic collapse and a breakdown in civil order, perhaps exacerbated by widespread "terrorist" bombings, following which, the countries' citizens will be grateful to yield their sovereignty and receive in return the support, acceptance, and protection of an economically and militarily strong central organization claiming to be ready and able to provide such support. Such a capitulation might be made easier to accept if it could be previously arranged for Russia to disappear as an external threat, and to appear to be in just as much economic and social difficulty as the United States.

Monetary Control Act of 1980 gives the Fed [Federal Reserve the power to] create new Federal Reserve Notes and give them away to foreign governments, or, to be formal, "loan" them, receiving as collateral debt instruments (bonds, etc.) held by those foreign governments. With the power to create dollars not only for the American governments, but now for any foreign government as well, the Fed has become very close to becoming a central bank for the entire world.

p104
Griffin makes a case for the view that e sudden demise of "Communism" is a ploy agreed upon between the banking elites and the Soviet leaders to enable bailout funds to flow to those states, further eroding the American economy, while terminating, at least for now, the militarily threatening posture of the USSR. The communist leaders would mostly remain in power, though renamed Social Democrats, or something similar. They and the elites would continue to work together for one socialist world.

p104
A cabal of English aristocrats and bankers [created] the Bank o England in 1694. King William, in need of money to fight a certain war, money which he couldn't raise by taxing or borrowing, granted a charter to a favored group of intriguers to form a bank which would be given a monopoly on issuing English bank notes, i.e., English paper money, which would be created out of nothing and credited to the government in return for a government IOU, the only "backing" that would be required. The government would pay interest on this "loan," making it look legitimate to the public, but the bank's even larger payback was that it was empowered to make additional commercial loans, at interest, using the same government IOU's as "backing," just as though the IOU's were hard, metallic gold. The banks, by receiving interest on money they could create and lend out at will, were thereby going to get rich, the king was going to be able to raise any amount of "money" he wanted, and the public, remaining ignorant of what was going on, was going to pay for it all by having their savings devalued by the expansion of the currency. (Our Federal Reserve does essentially the same thing, with added refinements which greatly increase its leverage over commercial credit.)

On August 9, 1929 the pin was inserted into the bubble. On that date, the Federal Reserve raised its discount rate to six percent and simultaneously began to sell securities on the open market. Both actions acted to shrink bank reserves and therefore the money supply... The market reached its peak on September 19, then started its slide downward. On October 24 the slide became a torrent, and on October 29, the market collapsed.

While the uninformed were in the process of loosing their shirts, the insiders who had sold out before the crash were now to be found, with cash at the ready, on the buying side. Companies whose stock had dropped to a fraction of their value were still basically viable, but their ownership, in large measure, had been shifted from, to use Andrew Mellon's phrase, the "less competent people," who had been sucked into the speculative maelstrom created by the Fed's easy credit, to the financial elites, who had been made privy to the crash that was around the corner. Great fortunes were made or added to by the latter.

by George Orwell
1949

p123
from 1984

If leisure and security were enjoyed by all alike, the great mass of human beings who are normally stupefied by poverty would become literate and would learn to think for themselves; and when once they had done this, they would sooner or later realize that the privileged minority had no function, and they would sweep it away. In the long run, a hierarchical society was only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance.

During the consolidation of power stage [of a state, non-state] sources of public information [are] suppressed, guaranteeing the future uniformity of public opinion on all matters of significance [to the new ruling elite].

from 1984

A ruling group is a ruling group so long as it can nominate its successors. The Party is not concerned with perpetuating its blood but with perpetuating itself. Who wields power is not important, provided that the hierarchical structure remains always the same.

p127
How does continuous war act to keep the Lows "stupefied by poverty" and thereby assure the maintenance of the social structure? The goal of the wars is to enable the economy to be kept going for the benefit of the High, its military, and its bureaucracy and control personnel (the Thought Police, etc.), but at the same time to assure that any excess production capacity is prevented from producing consumer goods for the lower classes. That excess capacity is instead directed to producing excess military goods which will ' ultimately rust away or be destroyed in warfare; that is, the excess capacity is deliberately wasted in order to turn it away from the production of goods which would result in added leisure or well-being for the lower classes. Those classes are instead continually forced into group activities expressing hatred toward the current enemy (any enemy) and dependency upon and love toward their benevolent rulers for protecting them from that enemy. They are thereby led to accept the consumer shortages, the poverty, and the other privations to which they are subjected. Their economic status is kept at the subsistence level, forcing their priorities to be focused on simply acquiring basic food, clothing, and shelter. They are thus denied either the time or the inclination to question the fairness or permanence of their societal condition, or to otherwise evolve into a threat to the established hierarchy.

What is our motive? Why should we want power? He then proceeds to answer is own question: "The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness; only power, pure power .... Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship .... The object of power is power ....

from 1984

The real power, the power we have to fight for night and day, is not power over things, but over men .... [And] how does one man assert his power over another?" He answers his own question: "By making him suffer. Obedience is not enough. Unless he is suffering, how can you be sure that he is obeying your will and not his own? Power is in inflicting pain and humiliation. Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing. In our world there will be no emotions except fear, rage, triumph, and self-abasement. Everything else we shall destroy - everything.

Report from Iron Mountain
1967

p141
[The Report says that] the prime political function of warfare is to preserve poverty in the society as an aid to maintaining the elite class in control.

p142
[The Report says that] individual citizens will willingly rise to the defense of their society when they see it being threatened by an external enemy. The enemy, of course, must be formidable and the threat real, or at least perceived to be real. Such a major threat to one's society justifies to the individual the loss of life associated with meeting that threat, including even the loss of one's own life. It may be very difficult, says the Report, to find a substitute for war that produces the desired waste of resources and is at the same time so readily acceptable to the populace.

p145
from Report from Iron Mountain

The permanent possibility of war is the foundation for stable government; it supplies the basis for general acceptance of political authority. It has enabled societies to maintain necessary class distinctions, and it has ensured the subordination of the citizen to the state.

p148
from G. Edward Griffin's book "The Creature from Jekyll Island"

[Report from Iron Mountain] was commissioned and executed, not by ivory tower dreamers and theoreticians, but by people who are in charge. It is the brainchild of the CFR [Council on Foreign Relations]. Furthermore, it should be obvious that the stratagems outlined in the report are already being implemented. All one has to do is hold the report in one hand and the daily newspaper in the other to realize that every major trend in American life is conforming to the recommendations of the report. So many things that otherwise are incomprehensible suddenly become perfectly clear: foreign aid, wasteful spending, the destruction of American industry, a job corps, gun control, a national police force, the apparent demise of Soviet power, a UN army, disarmament, a world bank, a world money, the surrender of national independence through treaties, and the ecology hysteria. The Report From Iron Mountain has already created our present. It is now shaping our future.

The Greening
by Larry Abraham
1993

p150
The environmental issue has clearly been selected as the major policy initiative to be developed... It might be possible to enhance the environmental threat, or even to invent a fake issue if an appropriate real one could not be found.

p151
from the book The Greening

[The real goal of the secret elites] is nothing less than to control natural resources worldwide.

p153
George Kennan in the Council on Foreign Relations journal 'Foreign Affairs', April 1970, entitled "To Prevent a World Wasteland ... A Proposal"

Not only the international scientific community but the world at large has great need, at this dark hour, of a new and more promising focus of attention. The great communist and Western powers, particularly, have need to replace the waning fixations for the cold war with interests which they can pursue in common and to everyone's benefit. For young people the world over, some new opening of hope and creativity is becoming an urgent spiritual necessity. Could there, one wonders, be any undertaking better designed to meet these needs, to relieve the great convulsions of anxiety and ingrained hostility that now rack international society, than a major international effort to restore the hope, the beauty, and the salubriousness of the international environment in which man has his being?

p155
Politically, [in the 1991 book 'Beyond Interdependence: The Meshing of the World's Economy and the Earth's Ecology, by Jim] MacNeill teaches that environmental interdependence means the end of national sovereignty. It will provide the 'external necessity' for a world government with new laws and regulations aplenty.

[MacNeill offers] the same old worn-out menu of eco-hoaxes: overpopulation, ozone hole, global warming, deforestation, bio-diversity, acid rain, rising sea levels, soil degradation, ad nauseam." The "alternate enemies" are to consist of those who resist the imposition of international controls over these areas, such as us taxpayers.

p156
[The global elites] genuinely believe they are the destined elite worthy to rule the world. Environmentalism is merely the rally, ragged rationalization designed to hoodwink the world into accepting their rule.

p157
from the book The Greening

The U.S. branch of the Institute [of International Affairs] was called the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and was officially founded in 1921. Prior to the formation of the CFR, a tight reciprocity existed between the Round Table group in the U.K. and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in the U.S., and once the Council was formed, most if I not all of the Carnegie Trustees comprised its original board of directors.

p157
Professor Arthur S. Miller's "The Secret Constitution and the Need for Constitutional Change"

Those [in the United States] who finally rule take their signals and commands not from the electorate as a body but from a small group of men (plus a few women). This group will be called the establishment. It exists even though that existence is stoutly denied. It is one of the secrets of the American social order. A second secret is the fact that the existence of the establishment, the ruling class, is not supposed to be discussed .... A third secret is implicit in what has been said - that there is really only one political party of any consequence in the United States, one that has been called the 'Property Party.' The Republicans and the Democrats are in fact two branches of the same (secret) party.

p162
from the book The Greening

The name of the game is the creation of world banks, regional currencies, multinational trusts, giant foundations, land expropriations, and massive transfers of natural resources - the cartelization of the world's natural resources - which will ultimately evolve into transfers of national sovereignty.

p164
from the book The Greening

The figures at the helm of each and every one of the major environmental foundations (such as the World Wildlife Fund, the Heritage Trust, the Nature Conservancy, the National Wildlife Federation, The Sierra Club, the World Wilderness Congress, Conservation International, and the Center for Earth Resource Analysis are key members of the elite political organizations previously and repetitiously identified (i.e., the Royal Institute of International Affairs, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bilderberg Group, the Club of Rome, and the Trilateral Commission).

p165
from the book The Greening

A terrifically dangerous group of elitists ... actually believe they are Plato's 'philosopher kings.' They alone are fit to rule the world. After all, without their guiding light, nothing 'can save humankind from itself.

Final Judgment
by Michael Collins Piper
1995

p230
John Kennedy [had] policy differences with Israel and its Mossad. There were perhaps three significant issues: Algeria, nuclear weapon development, and Palestinian resettlement... Israeli leaders felt that a new Arab state of Algeria would represent an added threat to the security of Israel, and since both Kennedy and France's DeGaulle were supportive of Algerian independence, those two men were to be regarded as enemies of the Israeli state. The feeling toward Kennedy, however, went much deeper. The Israelis felt that Kennedy had betrayed them. JFK's father, Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr., as Ambassador to Great Britain in the late 30's, had been supportive of Neville Chamberlain and of his policy of appeasing Hitler. Later in his life, he renounced his former views and pledged his support for the Jewish community. That community remained suspicious of him, however, and was even more so following John Kennedy's Senate speech proclaiming his support for an independent Algeria.

Kennedy, however, recognizing in 1960 that he needed both money and votes from the Jewish community, made moves to appease the pro-Israel lobby, very successfully, it turned out. His contact with the lobby was Abraham Feinberg, president of the Israel Bond Organization, who later acknowledged, "My path to power was cooperation in terms of what they needed - campaign money." Kennedy met with Feinberg "and a host of other wealthy Jewish Americans" in Feinberg's New York apartment. The group agreed to support Kennedy to the tune of $500,000. Kennedy, said Feinberg, "got emotional" with gratitude. To his own intimates, however, Kennedy was outraged. He said that he was told, "We're willing to pay your bills if you'll let us have control of your Middle East policy," and he vowed that if he did get to be President, he was going to do something about eliminating the influence of special interest lobbies - especially foreign pressure groups - in American election campaigns. After his election, he did introduce such campaign reform legislation, and he did proclaim an even-handed Middle Eastern policy - that the United States "will act promptly and decisively against any nation in the Middle East which attacks its neighbor," a policy clearly directed at both the Israelis and the Arabs. Israel, says Piper, "was not happy."

Of much greater import, however, was Kennedy's stance on nuclear weaponry. Upon becoming President, he was informed by the Eisenhower administration that Israel was secretly developing nuclear weapons at a desert site known as Dimona. Kennedy was determined to support a non-proliferation policy, however, and set about, as one of his primary concerns, to derail the Dimona development. Therefore, says Piper, "from the very beginning of his presidency, John F. Kennedy found himself at severe odds with the government of Israel."

Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion publicly announced that the Dimona project was for the purpose of studying "desert flora and fauna." Charles DeGaulle, who had helped Israel design the Dimona nuclear reactor as a power plant, was not amused. Nor was John Kennedy. According to Israeli historians Raviv and Melman, writing in 1990, Kennedy met with Ben-Gurion, stated his position, and demanded periodic international inspection of the site. Ben-Gurion resisted, and there thus began what amounted to a "secret war" between Kennedy and Israel, which was not resolved until Kennedy was killed and replaced by Lyndon Johnson. Author Seymour Hersh, writing in 1991, said: "Israel's bomb, and what to do about it, became a White House fixation, part of the secret presidential agenda that would remain hidden for the next thirty years." Hersh, further noting that this secret war had never been noted by any of Kennedy's biographers, evoked the following comment from Piper: "If indeed it had been, ... the mystery behind the JFK assassination might have been unraveled long, long ago."

For here, found in 1990, was the missing motivation. The relations between Ben-Gurion and Kennedy deteriorated down to the level of personal hatred. Ben-Gurion, who, according to Abraham Feinberg, hated old Joe Kennedy as an "anti-Semite," harbored a contempt for the younger Kennedy, says Piper, that "was growing by leaps and bounds - almost pathologically." Hersh writes that on Kennedy's part, he was getting fed up with the fact that the Israeli "sons of bitches lie to me constantly about their nuclear capability." Hersh then wrote, "Kennedy's relationship with Ben-Gurion remained at an impasse over Dimona, and the correspondence between the two became increasingly sour. None of those letters has been made public." Given the fact of Piper's present book, those letters today would be of very great interest.

Kennedy further proposed, said Piper, that Palestinian refugees "either be permitted to return to their homes in Israel or be compensated by Israel and resettled in the Arab countries or elsewhere. Former Undersecretary. of State George Ball writing in 1992, quoted as follows from a Ben-Gurion letter commenting on the Kennedy proposal, sent to the Israeli Ambassador in Washington for him to convey to Jewish leaders in America: "Israel will regard this plan as a more serious danger to her existence than all the threats of the Arab dictators and kings, than all the Arab armies, than all of Nasser's missiles and his Soviet MIGs .... Israel will fight against this implementation down to the last man."

Author Seymour Hersh reported that in one of Ben-Gurion's last communications with Kennedy he wrote: "Mr. President, my people have a right to exist and this existence is in danger." He then demanded that Kennedy sign a security treaty with Israel. Kennedy refused, whereupon David Ben-Gurion, on June 16, 1963, resigned from office. Piper suggests that it was at this time, just before his resignation, that Ben-Gurion gave the order to the Mossad's assassinations chief, Yitzhak Shamir, to proceed with plans for Kennedy's assassination.

p234
JFK would not countenance a nuclear Israel, and Israel perceived Kennedy's Palestinian resolution and nuclear non-proliferation policies as threats to Israel's very existence.

p235
Joe Kennedy went to [Chicago Mafia boss] Sam Giancana to ask for his help in getting his son John elected President. Giancana ... asked what the quid pro quo would be, and Kennedy responded, "You help me now, Sam, and I'll see to it that Chicago - that you - can sit in the goddamned Oval Office if you want .... He'll be your man. I swear to that. My son - the President of the United States - will owe you his father's life. He won't refuse you, ever. You have my word.

Israeli intelligence had been providing weapons and terrorist training to the Medellin Cartel's assassination squads in collaboration with British mercenaries .... The funds to purchase the weapons had been provided by the U.S. State Department through a program personally run by Assistant Secretary of State Elliott Abrams.

A leading anti-drug prosecutor in Switzerland, Paolo Bernasconi, told Italy's La Stampa newspaper in January 1990 that the leading money-laundering centers include the United States (Miami and Wall Street), Canada, Great Britain, and, of course, Switzerland.

London Economist, June 1989

It is obvious that drug dealers use banks .... The business ... has become part of the financial system .... If you had morals or ethics in this business, you would not be in it.

p245
Executive Intelligence Review

As one banker stated in an off-the-record discussion in London in 1986: Dope is the biggest source of new financial business in the world today .... I know banks which will literally kill to secure a chunk of this action. The banker worked for one of Wall Street's biggest investment houses, Merrill Lynch.

p246
Executive Intelligence Review

A competent war on drugs must begin with a war against the banking institutions and bankers who 'launder' Dope, Inc.'s ill-gotten gains...Shut down the drug money-laundering by the major Anglo-American banks, and the dope cartel would choke to death on its own profits... Dope, Inc.'s vulnerable flank is the international network of banks and other financial institutions that 'launder' the cartel's $558 billion per year in gross revenue... Action by governments against the drug bankers could rapidly shut down Dope, Inc.

p246
Executive Intelligence Review

No government has ever touched the system which allowed [the drug trade to develop]. At best, a few accounts here and there have been seized. To this day, money-laundering is not even a criminal offense in 8 out of the 15 industrial nations. In the United States, the center of the problem, government action, is a joke: No top management has ever been charged or prosecuted for criminal money-laundering activity.

[The Anti-Defamation League (ADL)] is a public relations front for the Rothstein-Lansky branch of American Organized Crime, though it operates formally as a tax-exempt public interest organization under Section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Service Codes.

Canadian Edgar Bronfman [is] an honorary vice chairman of the ADL (Anti-Defamation League). His family's criminal dynasty started with his father Sam, who, with Arnold Rothstein, was dispatched to Hong Kong in 1920 to arrange for supplies of opium, and who further organized the smuggling and retail distribution of the illegal drugs.

p273
Executive Intelligence Review

Since the late 1950s, Beijing has deliberately integrated its external financial affairs with the top British drug-running firms in Hong Kong and Macao and the overseas Chinese drug wholesaling and dirty money networks throughout the Orient .... Beijing's financial dependence on Hong Kong is a matter of public record. On Oct. 2, 1978, Chase Manhattan's newsletter East-West Markets estimated that the financial flow into mainland China in 1978 (excluding [payments for exports) through Hong Kong would total $2.5 billion.... Beijing does all its banking through Hong Kong, largely through the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, and secondarily through the Standard and Chartered Bank. The astonishing $2.5 billion financial reflow back to Communist China represents the fruits of Beijing's twenty-year program of moving into the higher echelons of the drug traffic, by agreement with the British .... Beijing's current policy represents a direct line of continuity between the current regime and Britain's nineteenth-century corrupt collaborators in China. Correspondingly, the fortunes of the Beijing Communists are linked to the opium trade and the British oligarchy. They have staked China's economy - its capacity to import urgently needed foreign goods - on the opium trade.

p274
The cover-up of the PRC's drug war against us far exceeds in effectiveness the Warren Commission attempted cover-up of the Kennedy assassination. The PRC cover-up was orchestrated by Henry Kissinger following his trip to China in 1972. Nixon fought it, but was outmaneuvered and eventually driven from office. The PRC never did stop growing and distributing opium, though they outlawed its domestic consumption, ruthlessly enforced that proscription, and brought production under state monopoly control. Corroborated reports indicate that today [1992] the PRC is the world's largest opium producer, [at] 800 metric tons of opium per year.

Cecil Rhodes' will (abridged)

To establish a trust, to and for the establishment and promotion and development of a secret society, the true aim and object whereof shall be the extension of British rule throughout the world and especially the occupation by British settlers of the entire continent of Africa, the Holy Land, the valley of the Euphrates, the islands of Cyprus and Candia [Crete], the whole of South America, the islands of the Pacific not heretofore possessed by Great Britain, the whole of the Malay Archipelago, the seaboard of China and Japan, the ultimate recovery of the United States of America as an integral part of the British Empire, the consolidation of the whole Empire and finally, the foundation of so great a power as to hereafter render wars impossible and promote the best interests of humanity.

p282
The operative elements of a plausible scenario [for the Kennedy assassination] might be as follows:

* Joe Kennedy was supplied booze by Bronfman and the British, and (like Bronfman himself) remained interested his whole life in becoming a part of, and being accepted by, the British elites.

* Upon JFK's election, Joe and his son John started doing the task assigned by the British-Bronfman combine of expunging the unwanted Mafia elements from the American crime syndicate and preserving the desired ones, including Lansky and Trafficante.

* The Kennedys did OK until their anti-Semitism got in the way, causing them to choke on Israel's covert development of nuclear weapons.

* The British, seeing their creation, Israel, being threatened, concurred with Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion's desire to terminate John Kennedy.

* The assassination was then ordered and executed as described by Michael Collins Piper in Final Judgment.
