Posted by Charles Burris on February 20, 2010 10:04 PM ³The revolutionary movement which began in 1789 in the Cercle Social, which in the middle of its course had as its chief representatives Leclerc and Roux, and which finally with Babeuf¹s conspiracy was temporarily defeated, gave rise to the communist idea which Babeuf¹s friend Buonarroti re-introduced in France after the Revolution in 1830. This idea, consistently developed, is the idea of the new world order.² This quote (found here in full context) is from The Holy Family, the first joint collaboration volume of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It was written several years before their more celebrated (and originally anonymous) 1848 work, The Communist Manifesto. So from Marx and Engels the founding fathers of modern communism we have it boldly stated: the communist idea = the new world order. OK David Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger, George H. W. Bush, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, John McCain, Barack Obama, ad nauseam how do you explain away this one? Conspiracy fact or conspiracy theory? I found this extremely revealing quote in Perfectibilists: The 18th Century Bavarian Order of the Illuminati by Terry Melanson. I just received this wonderful book a couple of days ago from Amazon.com. In that time I have only begun to scratch the surface of its encyclopedic amassing of factual information concerning its controversial subject, yet it is fast becoming one of my favorite books. I have not been this impressed with a new book for a very long time. The carefully detailed scholarship is evident throughout this handsome, beautifully executed volume. Melanson¹s work deserves to be placed on the same reference shelf as James Billington¹s Fire in the Minds of Men, and Carroll Quigley¹s Tragedy and Hope, for its scholastic integrity and dedication to truth-telling without tabloid sensation or hyperbole. While this will be the definitive English-language history of the Bavarian Illuminati, there is so much more to its remarkable contents. Melanson¹s intriguing discussion of how Freemasonry, the Rosicrucians, and the Jesuits relate to the Illuminati within the milieu of the Aufklarung (the German Enlightenment) is particularly fascinating and dispels much prior pseudo-scholarship and hot house theorizing by supposed authorities on these topics.
