-Caveat Lector-
Ran across this piece of crap on the web written by guess who - Joshua2.
He has garbage over the web under his J2 for he thinks he is some type
of a great brain?
The work - most of it is stolen from others, for when J2 writes on his
own - when it comes to originality or intelligence - you find a void.
In his perfect world, nobody would have a pedigree.....as the great
Farrakhan would say "they want to mongrelize the blacks", and as the
great leaders of the old KKK would say - "the want to mongelize the
white". An item on the web produced by The Extremist shows you
exactly what these "scientists" and government agents want to do - they
want no pure blood of a pure race - the Pentagon wants and got, their
idea of the perfect man - Colin Powell who has reached a summit because
of let us say, something he saw in Viet Nam?
Have a good laugh here with the plaguiarized works of J2 - and oh by the
way, anyone right of center he depicts as anti-semite when the biggest
anti-semites in the world rest in the Zionist movement.

UNDERSTANDING THE NEW WORLD ORDER
by Joshua2
CONSPIRACY, CONSPIRACY THEORY, AND THEIR USE AS PROPAGANDA ---
This is a very touchy subject and requires a base of clarity. I expect
that the reader will maintain a healthy skepticism, in conjunction with
an open mind. In the end you will not be disappointed.
DEFINITIONS -- So that we are all playing in the same ball park, I'll
start by defining the terms...
PROPAGANDA - n. 1. information or ideas methodically spread to promote
or injure a cause, nation, etc.2. the deliberate spreading of such
information or ideas. Propaganda is the systematic attempt to manipulate
the attitudes, beliefs, and actions of people through the use of symbols
such as words, gestures, slogans, flags, and uniforms. Ideas, facts, or
allegations are spread to further a cause or to damage an opposing
cause. The factor that distinguishes propagandizing from educating and
informing is deliberate selectivity and manipulation. The word
propaganda was derived from the title of the Congregation for
Propagating the Faith (Congregatio de propaganda fide), established by
Pope Gregory XV in 1622, which had jurisdiction over missionary work
conducted by the Roman Catholic church. Within modern history, the
propaganda machine of the German Nazis under Joseph GOEBBELS is
especially infamous.
Different Forms of Propaganda
Propaganda can take various forms, ranging from overt attempts to
influence the public to covert means of persuasion. Psychological
warfare is a form of propaganda employed to confuse and demoralize enemy
populations. BRAINWASHING is the practice of subjecting individuals to
intensive political indoctrination and depends on methods aimed at
breaking down the subject's resistance.
Considerably less extreme forms of propaganda also exist. ADVERTISING (
less extreme, but much more pervasive - J2 ) for example, has been
regarded as propaganda. Information on consumer sentiments toward
various products, their packaging, and sales and advertising techniques
is obtained through market research. The information is then used to
mount advertising campaigns making one-sided appeals to consumer
preferences.designed to avert potential dangers.
The larger the propaganda enterprise, the more important are such mass
media as television, newspapers, and the radio for reaching the widest
audience in the most effective way. Mass communication studies that
investigate the relative effectiveness and credibility of the various
media are frequently used by propagandists when selecting a means of
reaching the public. Using a method known as content analysis, the
propagandist can quantitatively measure the symbolic content of his or
her own propaganda and that of others. Symbol analysis has also been
used to estimate the degree of fear and tension within a country.
Apparently, at the height of a crisis, editorials concentrate on
relatively few main symbols, whereas under relaxed conditions a broader
set of symbols is used. ( from Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia- partial
)
Mass political propaganda is ALSO successful when it results in
INACTION, thus maintaining the status quo.
CONSPIRACY - A conspiracy, in Anglo-American common law, is a
combination of two or more persons formed for the purpose of committing
some unlawful or criminal act or for the purpose of using unlawful or
criminal means to commit an act not in itself unlawful. The essence of
the crime is the agreement and, in some jurisdictions, the taking of
steps to effect the plan (see also COLLUSION). In cases where actual
damage is sustained by one or more victims, conspirators are also
subject to civil suit for the recovery of damages. ( Grolier's
Multimedia Encyclopedia )
conspiracy (noun) -- Synonyms: PLOT 2, cabal, covin, intrigue,
machination, practice, scheme Related words: sedition, treason;
disloyalty, faithlessness, falsity, perfidiousness, perfidy,
treacherousness, treachery Contrasted words: faith, faithfulness,
fealty, loyalty. ( Grolier's )
If you and a neighbor secretly plan a surprise birthday party for
another neighbor, this is not a conspiracy. If you and a neighbor
secretly plan a surprise birthday party for another neighbor in the hope
that he will get drunk and agree to pay half the cost of a fence that
you would like to install, then this is a conspiracy. The point being
that a third party is negatively affected by the conscious effort of the
conspirators.
Conspiracies are a common occurrence. The act of keeping secret the
conversation between a lawyer and his guilty client, is a conspiracy.
CONSPIRACY THEORY --- I can't find any reference to the term _
conspiracy theory _ in a dictionary, or thesaurus. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm ??? It
must be that the powers that be don't want us to understand what
conspiracy theory means.
This is an excellent example of conspiracy theory. It is not
supernaturally based, and is possible in the rational scheme of things.
The most famous examples are the JFK assassination conspiracy theories.
>From Oliver Stone's movie to the deathbed confessions of a Mafia don,
one thing is sure, the most unbelievable story is the official one.
PROPAGANDA ACCORDING TO LEVEL OF EDUCATION --
Effective propaganda only works if it is tailored to the sucker's frame
of reference. In the old days, and among primitive and / or uneducated
people, as well as among educated religious people, a belief in the
supernatural, where anything is possible, can allow one to believe the
single source theory. The single source theory holds that all the evil
and malevolence in the story can be traced back to a single source. In
that person's world, a cabal ( from the Hebrew, Cabalah ) of fiendishly
clever old Jews, can successfully conspire, organize, and carry out
control and domination of the entire world in near total secrecy, even
before the age of instant communications.
The notion among a fair portion of the American Black community that the
White Devils invented Aids to decimate their ( Black's ) population is
laughable to educated Blacks and just about all Whites. It's not that
White Americans are not capable of doing such a thing, it's that once
released into the general population, how does the disease distinguish
Blacks from every one else ? If Blacks are more susceptible because of
promiscuous sexual behavior, then this is a foolish attempt at genocide
since the choice to accommodate the White Devils is entirely in the
hands ( so to speak ) of the intended victims.
These two examples fall under the heading of " Conspiracy Theory ."
EDUCATED SUCKERS --
Several months ago C-Span aired a debate between Joe Madison, a
Washington DC liberal radio talk show host, and Oliver North, a world
famous scumbag. The debate was about the recent allegations that the
C.I.A. ( Capitalisms Independent Army) was either responsible for, or
complicit in the crack cocaine devastation of the urban poor in
California and eventually the urban poor in the rest of the country. If
these allegations are true, then that makes North and the national
security people complicit in mass murder.
There are ample numbers of CIA and DEA agents ready to testify that this
is true. This comes as no surprise to the Left, or to Vietnam War Vets,
or to the Afghans, or to Israeli Intelligence, or to the Hmong refugees
in this country. But this is too hard for ordinary civilians to swallow.
It means discarding their essential beliefs in their country and by
extension in themselves. If they can be given some wiggle room, then no
serious and extensive overhaul need be done to the CIA or themselves.
Most of North's conversation was obfuscation and emphatic denial, but on
several occasions he accused Madison and the San Jose Mercury News, who
broke the story this time around, of buying into and foisting upon the
public " conspiracy theories", and even mentioned Oliver Stone. Knowing
full well what kind of people watch C-Span, he chose "conspiracy
theory", rather than "conspiracy", because it was in fact a conspiracy,
and by adding the word "theory" he introduces an element of doubt( in
that a theory is different from a fact), while painting the accuser as
paranoid or gullible. This leaves the intelligent educated audience
feeling superior, and the doubt provides the wiggle room to "wait and
see" or do nothing. Mission accomplished !
All positions of power, are conspiratorial. Withholding pertinent or
empowering information from rivals or subordinates is a main component
of keeping the Top Dog on top. Insider trading, price fixing, hidden
taxes, political bribery, editorial prerogatives, advertising, AND the
strict prohibition against open discussion of wages and salaries among
peers in a company, are areas of life that conspiracies affect every
day.
Covert operations the size of small wars, are directed against the very
citizens who pay for them. The unleashing of drugs, bugs, and thugs on
an unsuspecting civilian population, are a common though illegal
occurrence.
A heist so big, that one book on the subject of the S&L whitecollar
collusion between congress and bankers, is entitled "The Greatest Ever
Bank Robbery" . Even that title understates the amount of money
successfully stolen by conspiring businessmen and public servants. And
now they would like us to turn Social Security over to these people.
" The Ruling Class rules not by conspiracy, but by mutual self
interest." [AND by conspiracy when necessary.- J2]
" THE RICH ARE NOT LIKE THE REST OF US " --
The people we are talking about here are referred to by Ferdinand
Lundberg as the "Super Rich". Were he writing his book today, it would
be titled " The Rich, The Super Rich and The Hyper Rich ". These are the
people we see in news clips of $1,000 dollar a plate political
gatherings. These are the people who control the Administrative Branch,
the Legislative Branch, and have great influence over the Invertebrate
Branch of Government also known as the Supreme Court. These people
should be viewed as a social class because they intermarry and have
common interests. The three most common interests they have are ... 1)
Extracting as much wealth from the universe as is possible. 2) How to
keep from losing any of their money. 3) Accumulate all the power needed
to maintain 1 and 2.
These are truly worthy endeavors, and keep these people busy and out of
our lives ... except around election time.

THE NEW WORLD ORDER --
Most people think that George ( Skull and Bones ) Bush invented the
phrase after the Gulf War. In fact, the New World Order was initiated
over one hundred years ago in Colonialist Great Britain, at the peak of
empire.
If this statement is true, then how is it that so few people know about
it ???
QUIGLEY--
" There does exist, and has existed for a generation, an institutional
Anglophile network which opperates, to some extent, in the way the
radical Right believes the Communists act. In fact, this network, which
we may identify as the Round Table Groups, has no aversion to
cooperating with the Communists, or any other groups, and frequently
does so. I know of the opperations of this network because I have
studied it for twenty years and was permitted for two years in the early
1960s to examine its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it
or to most of its aims and have, for much of my life, been close to it
and to many of its instruments. I have objected, both in the past and
recently, to a few of its policies ... but in general my chief
difference of opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown,and I believe
its role in history is significant enough to be known."
--Dr. Carroll Quigley, author of " Tragedy and Hope "(1966),and
professor and mentor to William J. Clinton at Georgetown University.
"As a teenager, I heard John Kennedy's summons to citizenship. And then,
as a student, I heard that call clarified by a professor I had named
Carroll Quigley."

nomination for president, 16 July 1992. [Clinton is also a Rhodes
Schollar.]
"... the powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim,
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 feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert,
by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and
conferences."
--Dr. Carroll Quigley, Tragedy and Hope
A SNOOTY MEN'S CLUB --
Cecil Rhodes went to Oxford University where to the amazement of no one,
he learned that, " the British upper classes possessed a glorious
tradition of beauty, decency, education, law, and self - discipline."
After a solid education at Oxford, he was now prepared to steal as much
as he could from the native peoples of Africa. With the financial
backing of the Rothschild banking interests he founded the Consolidated
Gold Fields, and DeBeers diamond empire in southern Africa. He also
founded a country wittily named Rhodesia. Towards the end of his life he
had a personal yearly income of $ 100,000,000 dollars in today's money.
HE HAD A DREAM --
He desired " 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 to found the Rhodes
Scholarships at Oxford in order to spread the English ruling class
tradition." ( Quigley )
To these purposes Rhodes formed a private secret society with some very
heavy hitters. Lord Balfour, Lord Gray, Lord Esher, Lord Rothschild, and
Lord Milner (who organized a group called the British Round Table).
" From 1884 to about 1915 the members of the group worked valiantly to
extend the British empire and to organize it into a federal system...
Stead (one of the group) was able to get Rhodes to accept, in principal,
a solution which might have made Washington the capital of the whole
organization or allow parts of the empire to become states of the
American Union." ( Quigley )
The chief backbone of this organization grew up along the already
existing financial cooperation running from the Morgan Bank in New York
to a group of international financiers in London led by Lazard Brothers.
Lord Milner became a director of the precursor to the giant Midland
Bank. He became one of the greatest political and financial powers in
England with his disciples placed throughout England in significant
places, such as the editorship of the Times, the editorship of the
Observer, the managing directorship of Lazard Brothers, various
administrative posts, and even Cabinet positions. Ramifications were
established in politics, high finance, Oxford and London Universities,
periodicals, the civil service, and tax - exempt foundations." ( Quigley
)
THE ROUND TABLE GROUPS --
After the death of Cecil Rhodes in 1902, Lord Milner became the executor
of Rhodes' trust. He organized " discreet " discussion / study / work
groups known as the Round Table Groups throughout the Empire, including
America. On May 30, 1919 members of different national delegations to
the Paris Peace Conference met at the Hotel Majestic to discuss setting
up an international group which would advise their respective
governments on international affairs.
The planning delegations decided upon creating separate organizations
cooperating with each other. They organized the Council on Foreign
Relations ( Harrold Pratt House on East 68th Street in New York City. In
1922, it began publishing it's official mouthpiece, Foreign Affairs
Magazine - http://www.foreignaffairs.org), and a sister organization,
the Royal Institute of International Affairs, in London, also known as
the Chatham House Study Group, to advise the British Government. A
subsidiary organization, the Institute of Pacific Relations, was set up
to deal with Far Eastern Affairs.
Other internationalist " private and discreet " groups of selfless
caring royalty, aristocrats, bankers, politicians, diplomats and
corporate CEOs are: The ( infamous, among conspiracy theorists ) Bilder-
bergers, the Institut des Relations Internationales of Belgium, the
Danish Foriegn Policy Society, the Indian Council of World Affairs, the
Australian Institute of International Affairs, and similar organizations
in France, Itally, Israel, Japan, etc..
I strongly emphasize at this point,that these rich men had no authority
from the Constitution, or any other authorizing legal document to create
these organizations of control and / or influence over our so called
democratic political system. They did it because they could subvert and
corrupt ANY political system with their enormous and often ill-gotten
wealth. They did it to make certain that strong nation state governments
would NEVER allow changes in the economic system that made them rich.
And they would use the strong nation state's military power to extend
their markets, and defend their private properties and Corporations from
internal and external threat.
"The New York branch was dominated by associates of the Morgan Bank. For
example, in 1928 the Council on Foreign Relations had John W. Davis as
president, Paul Cravath as vice president, and a council of thirteen
others, which included Owen D. Young, Russel Leffingwell, Norman Davis,
Allen Dulles, George Wickersham, Frank L. Polk, Whitney Sheperdson,
Isaiah Bowman, Stephan P. Duggan, and Otto Khan." (Quigley)
These men had economic and cultural ties to the British state and
aristocracy. That they were Anglophile is obvious, but they were also
Internationalists and admiring of European culture. They were (are)
Episcopalian and highly urbane. They were (are) the models for the old
"high society" characters epitomized by William Powell in the movies.
These people came to dominate the most important institutions in our
society. They were powerful Wall Street lawyers like the Dulles
brothers, who looked after the foreign investments of their super rich
clients. Especially their investments in Europe, and more especially
their investments in German corporations, which in the 1930s began
building Hitler's new war machine.
At first with the backing of the Morgan Bank, and later with the
Rockefeller Banks ( Chase Manhattan, and First National City Bank, now
called Citicorp ) the CFR had a healthy start in life. It was and
continues to be nourished by the giant tax averting foundations of the
super rich, and direct donations from the Fortune 500 channeled through
as member fees.
THE FOUNDATIONS --
Why are there " philanthropic foundations " ? Why would people who
dedicated their lives to accumulating wealth and by extension, power,
want to give it away ?
The following are excerpts from -- The Rich and the Super-Rich - By
Ferdinand Lundberg.
- Public Relations - The founder may have been publicly disliked, like
John D. Rockefeller I, or not very well liked, like Andrew Carnagy. But
the forming of foundations had the effect of altering opinion in an
unsophisticated population, turning the supposed bad guy into a supposed
good guy.
- Tax Avoidance - Nearly all of the American foundations have come into
view since the enactment of the income tax and estate laws: The
foundations are completely exempt not only with respect to income taxes
but also capital gains taxes. One does not know in each case that the
founder sought to escape taxes, but common reason would indicate it.
Many standard tax advisory services explicitly point to these factors as
attractive features of foundations. F.L.
It should also be understood that when hugh amounts of money are
excluded from the tax base, then a greater tax burden falls on the rest
of us. If the poor don't have it, and the rich don't pay it, then an
unfairly large proportion of the tax burden falls on the struggling
middle class. (J2)
- Corporate Control ... which would otherwise be undermined by tax laws,
is preserved to perpetuity by many foundations, permitting the
hereditary transmission, tax free, of vast corporate power. F.L.
- Education and Propaganda - The foundations extend the power of their
founders very prominently into the cultural areas of education ( and
propaganda ), science, the arts and social relations. ( If you doubt
this, you only need look at the credits of PBS' programming. - J2 )
While much that is done in these areas under foundation auspices meets
judicious critical approval, it is a fact that these dispensations
inevitably take the form of patronage, bestowed on approved projects,
withheld from disapproved projects. Recipients of the money must be
ideologically acceptable to the donors. F.L.
In other words, he who pays the piper calls the tune. The various
foundations also fund the "Think Tanks" where hired brains rationalize,
and publicize current trends across the narrow spectrum of their
employers' world view. One of the more famous think tanks is the
Brookings Institution. Brookings is utilized as the liberal or left,
when in a debate with conservative or right American Enterprise
Institue. These debates are most often seen on "thinking person's" news
programs such as the News Hour on PBS, or Nightline on ABC, or the
talking heads shows like Crossfire, Meet the Press, etc..
This type of presentation gives the appearance of ballanced coverage of
the issues at hand, but are really two sides of the same coin since all
the major think tanks are funded by major corporations, foundations, or
directly by the rich. How many times have you seen Noam Chomsky, or
Michael Parenti, or Gus Hall, debating Norm Ornstien on Nightline ?
" The grant-making foundation can exercise enormous power through the
direct use of its funds. Moreover it materially increases its power and
its influence by building collaeral alliances which serve greatly to
insulate it against criticism... These dangers to our society relate
chiefly to the use of foundation funds for political ends; they arise
out of the accumulation of substantial economic power and cultural
influence in the hands of a class of administrators of tax-exempt funds
established in perpetuity. An " elite " has thus emerged in control of
gigantic financial resources operating outside of our democratic
processes, which is willing and able to shape the future of this nation
and of mankind in the image of its own values and concepts. " ( Rene
Wormser, author of " Foundations ", lawyer, and professional
anti-communist )
And lastly, there is a revolving door between the foundations (Trusts),
the Ivy League and elite academic institutions, and the highest posts in
the federal government. Robert S. McNamara, and McGeorge Bundy ( Dean of
faculty, Arts and Sciences Dept. at Harvard) are two well known examples
of many.

WOODROW WILSON IN THE NEW WORLD --
Wall Street, particularly the Morgan Banking interests insured that
their choice for President, Woodrow Wilson would win the office by
funding a third party candidate, Teddy Roosevelt, who would split the
vote of his main opponent Republican William Howard Taft. The
Republicans were considered too close to Wall Street by an angry
American voting public sick of the excesses of the Robber Barons and
their predatory corporations. The strategy worked ( and continues to
work to this day.) and Wilson was elected President.
Wilson's chief advisor in the White house was Colonel Edward M. House.
House ran the State Department, and helped choose Wilson's Cabinet in
much the same way that Warren Christopher helped choose Clinton's first
Cabinet. House had strong connections to Wall Street, as well as to
politicians and international bankers in Europe.
In 1916 Wilson charged a group of specially chosen intellectuals
including the Dulles brothers, and Walter Lippmann ( the "dean" of US
journalism ) with the tasks of creating the peace terms for a defeated
Germany, and creating a framework for a new world order, as stated in
the League of Nations Covenant. Both of these endeavors were abject
failures eventually resulting in the slaughter-fest known as WWII.
John Foster Dulles, Allen Dulles, Christian A. Herter, were also invited
by Colonel House to Paris in 1919 to meet with a group of like minded
Englishmen to form organizations in their respective countries that will
study international affairs. The Americans incorporated The Council On
Foreign Relations in 1921. The stated purpose was to create a "positive
US foreign policy" to counteract the " negative foreign policy " which
was isolationism. Isolationism restricted international business and
kept the US military out of very lucrative wars.
THE COUNCIL -- Excerpts from - Who Rules America Now by G. William
Domhoff
- The largest and best known of the (3) policy organizations is the
Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). Founded by bankers, lawyers, and
academicians who were fully cognizant of the larger role the United
States would play in world affairs after WWI, the council's importance
in the conduct of world affairs was well established by the 1930s. The
council had about 1800 members (in 1983), half from the New York area,
half from the rest of the country. Before 1970 the members were
primarily financiers, executives, and lawyers, with a strong minority of
journalists, academic experts, and government officials. Since that time
there has been an effort to include a larger number of government
officials, including foreign - service officers, politicians and staff
members of congressional comities concerned with foreign policy.
- For all sectors of the economy, the companies with the most members
among their ( CFR's ) officers and directors were Morgan Guaranty Trust
(16), Chase Manhattan Bank (15), Citibank (10), and IBM (8).
- Historical case studies suggest that study groups at the CFR have been
at the heart of many foreign policy initiatives. For example, council
groups called the War-Peace Study Groups met from 1940 to 1945 in order
to develop plans for after WWII. ( Remember, we didn't get into WWII
until Dec. 7, 1941 - J2 ) They had a major influence in creating the
International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the UN. A series of
study groups in the 1940s and 1950s helped to establish the consensus
wisdom that it was necessary to defend South Vietnam at all costs. Large
foundation grants in the early 1960s led to study groups that
reconsidered US policy toward China, concluding that the policy must be
changed to allow for recognition of its communist government and
eventual trade relations. --- G.W.D. ---
"The Council on Foreign Relations, another member of the international
complex, financed by the Rockefeller and Carnegie Foundations,
overwhelmingly propagandizes the globalist concept. This organization
became virtually an agency of the government when World War II broke
out. The Rockefeller Foundation had started and financed certain studies
known as The War and Peace Studies, manned largely by associates of the
Council; the State Department, in due course, took these Studies over,
retaining the major personnel which the Council on Foreign Relations had
supplied."
-- Rene A. Wormser,Chief Counsel to the Reece Committee, and author of
"Foundations."
ILLEGITIMATE OFFSPRING --
- Council leaders ( Zbigniew Brzezinski, and David Rockefeller ) reacted
to the large scale changes of the late 1960s and early 1970s by creating
a new discussion group called the Trilateral Commission, which included
60 members from Japan and 60 from Western Europe as well as American
members. Its goal was to develop closer economic and political
cooperation among the industrialized democracies in dealing with
economic competition among themselves and with challenges from
underdeveloped countries. --- G.W.D. ---
Members of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral
Commission dominate key positions in America's government, military,
industries, media outlets and educational foundations and institutions.
The CFR's membership is limited to 3,000, and there are only 325
Trilateral Commission members.

These are the most powerful positions in the world. If they were all
occupied by members of the Pipe Fitters Union you would wonder about
what might be going on here. If they were all Black you'd really worry
about ulterior motives. If they were all Jews, well .... it would be
time to look at your old copy of the " Protocols of the Elders of Zion"
with a more discerning eye.

HOW MANY STORIES HAVE ANY OF THESE PEOPLE DONE ON THE MOST INFLUENTIAL
PRIVATE POLICY GROUP IN THE UNITED STATES ???
CFR meetings are usually held in secret and are restricted to members
and very select guests. All members are free to express themselves at
meetings unrestrained, because the Non- Attribution Rule guarantees that
"others will not attribute or characterize their statements in public
media forums or knowingly transmit them to persons who will. -- Council
on Foreign Relations' 1992 Annual Report.
LOOK FOR THE UNION LABEL --
In South Korea, France, Israel, (Corp.Cap.) Russia, Germany, and
everywhere that Corporate Politicians are attempting to cut into, and
weaken the rights of Labor, Unions and their supportive populations are
in the streets and ready to fight against the erosion of their standard
of living. Conspicuous by their non-action are the beaten working people
of the United States. Here's why.....

FOX IN THE HENHOUSE --
Look at what has happened to most of these unions since the ruling
business elites got their Neo-Liberal policies rolling. There is NO ONE
in American politics to represent working people.
WHAT THEY HAVE IN COMMON --
- They are all Rich by middle class standards. - They are influential in
the society at large. - They are all Corporate Capitalists (as opposed
to small business Capitalists). - They benefit handsomely from the
status quo. - They are Upper Middle to Upper Class socially, despite
humble beginnings for some. - They are striving to reorganize the world
community into Trading Blocks, WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED. EVEN
IN THE "DEMOCRATIC" NATIONS. - They ALL SEE THE NATION STATE AS
OBSOLETE.
"[There must be] some dilution of sovereignty, to the immediate
disadvantage of those nations which now possess the preponderance of
power ... the establishment of a common money, might be vested in a body
created by and responsible to the principal trading and investing
people. This would deprive our government of exclusive control over a
national money."
-- John Foster Dulles, CFR founder, former Secretary of State, 1939
"In the economic-technological field, some international cooperation has
already been achieved, but further progress will require greater
American sacrifices. More intensive efforts to shape a new world
monetary structure will have to be undertaken, with some consequent risk
to the present relatively favorable American position."
--Zbigniew Brzezinski, CFR member and founding member of the Trilateral
Commission, and National Security Advisor to five presidents.
- Their justification is the claim that this will bring world peace,
despite a dismal record of failure, and a history of starting wars and
destabilizing Sovereign States to advantage multinational corporations
which they own.
- For the first time in history it is technologically possible to
establish a world wide system of communication capable of global
organization. They are organizing the worlds economies in a manner which
will keep them in control in order to exploit the resources and labor of
ALL nations, not just the third world.
- This process is antithetical to democracy, but the illusion of
democracy is required where possible to prevent insurrection. Where "
democracy " doesn't work, dictatorial puppet governments are installed
and maintained as long as they serve MULTINATIONAL CORPORATE INTERESTS.
These are described by the media as NATIONAL INTERESTS, and defined by
the groups under discussion here, and then disseminated through the mass
media for public consumption.
