According to the CFR's Handbook of
1936, several leading members of the delegations to the Paris Peace Conference
met at the Hotel Majestic in Paris on May 30, 1919, "to discuss setting up
an international group which would advise their respective governments on
international affairs."
The Handbook goes on to say, "At

Almost all White House cabinet
positions are occupied by CFR members. President Clinton, himself a member of
the CFR, the Trilateral Commission and the Bilderberg Group, employs almost one
hundred CFR members in his administration. Presidents come and go, but the
CFR's power--and agenda--always remains.
The CFR's Shroud of
Secretcy
On its web page, the CFR boasts that
its magazine, Foreign Affairs, "is acclaimed for its analysis of recent
international developments and for its forecasts of emerging trends." It's
not much of a challenge to do so, though, when you play a part in determining
what those emerging trends will be.
This point is underscored a paragraph
later on their web page: "Perhaps best known for the history-making
"X" article by George Kennan, that defined Cold War containment
policy, a recent Foreign Affairs article by Harvard's Samuel Huntington,
"The Clash of Civilizations?" has already helped define the post-Cold
War debate."
So are they predicting trends or
creating them? The answer is fairly obvious to anyone who has earnestly
reflected on the matter.
The CFR fancies itself to represent a
diverse range cultural and political interests, but its members are
predominantly wealthy males, and their policies reflect their elitist biases.
The CFR attempts to maintain the
charade of diversity via its Non-Attribution Rule, which allows members to
engage in "a free, frank, and open exchange of ideas" without fear of
having any of their statements attributed in public. The flip side of this,
obviously, is a dark cloud of secrecy which envelopes the CFR's activities.
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," according to the Council on Foreign Relations' 1992
Annual Report.
The report goes on to forbid any
meeting participant "to publish a speaker's statement in attributed form
in any newspaper; to repeat it on television or radio, or on a speaker's
platform, or in a classroom; or to go beyond a memo of limited
circulation."
The end result is that the only
information the public has on the CFR is the information they release for public
consumption, which should send up red flags for anyone who understands the
immense effect that CFR directives have on America's foreign policy. The public
knows what the CFR wants the public to know about the CFR, and nothing more.
There is one hole in the fog of
secrecy, however: a book entitled Tragedy and Hope, written by an
"insider" named Dr. Carroll Quigley, mentor of Bill Clinton.
Tragedy and Hope: The
Global Elite
Dr. Quigley knew a lot about the
behind-the-scenes work of global power because he was a part of that power
network for most of his life. In his book, Tragedy and Hope, Quigley states:
"I know of the operations of
this network because I have studied it for twenty years and was permitted for
two years, in the early 1960's, to examine its papers and secret records. I
have no aversions 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."
The "Hope" in the title of
Quigley's book represents the thousand-year reign of a collectivist one-world
society which will be created when the "network" achieves its goal of
world government. Quigley believed that the "network" is so powerful
at this point that resistance by the common people is futile. Hence, those who
resist the schemes of the globalist planners represent the "Tragedy."
By Dr. Quigley's logic, there is no point in struggling against the noose
around our necks, because resistance will merely guarantee strangulation.
Dr. Quigley identified the
"network" as the "international bankers," men who were
"different from ordinary bankers in distinctive ways: they were
cosmopolitan and international; they were close to governments and were
particularly concerned with questions of government debts...; they were almost
exclusively devoted to secrecy and the secret use of financial influence in
political life. These bankers came to be called international bankers, and,
more particularly, were known as merchant bankers in England, private bankers
in France, and investment bankers in the United States."
The core of control, according to Dr.
Quigley, resides in the financial dynasties of Europe and America who exercise
political control through international financial combines. The primary tactic
of control is lending money at high interest to governments and monarchs during
times of crisis. An example of this is the current national debt in the U.S.,
which is at five trillion dollars right now. Every penny of it is owed to the
Federal Reserve, a corporation comprised of thirteen private banks.
According to Dr. Quigley, the Council
on Foreign Relations is one of several front organizations set up by the
network's inner circle to advance its schemes. The ultimate goal: a New World
Order.
CFR and the New World
Order
According to State Department
Publication 2349, submitted by secretary of State and CFR member Edward
Stettinius, a committee on "post-war problems" was set up before the
end of 1939 at the suggestion of the CFR. In other words, two years before the
Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, the CFR was planning how to order the world after
the war ended.
In 1946, the Rockefeller Foundation
spent almost $140,000 to produce a history of how the United States entered
World War II. This history was intended to counter "revisionist"
historians who argued that the U.S. was "tricked" into the war by the
Roosevelt Administration. The Rockefeller family has always taken a lead role
in the CFR.
In the 1960s, while American men and
women were dying in the jungles of Vietnam and while the military/industrial
complex was sucking trillions of dollars out of American taxpayers' wallets,
the Rockefeller dynasty was financing Vietnamese oil refineries and aluminum
plants. If there had ever been a formal declaration of war, the Rockefellers
could be tried for treason. Instead, they reaped dividends.
These are just a few of the abuses of
power which demonstrate the results of the power elite's manipulations of our
destiny as a society. If you've ever wondered why you don't hear about this
network of power, just take a look at the CFR's membership roster (posted
online in ParaScope). Many of the chief executives and newspeople at CBS,
NBC/RCA, ABC, the Public Broadcast Service, the Associated Press, the New York
Times, Time magazine, Newsweek, the Washington Post, and many other key media outlets
are CFR members.
Even if these members of the media's
elite had the inclination to report on what they saw and heard at CFR meetings,
they are prevented from doing so by the Non-Attribution Rule. To put this in
perspective: many of the people who are trusted to provide information about
national and world politics are deliberately withholding crucial information
from the public because of membership in a secretive globalist organization.
This organization has taken it upon
itself to participate in the manufacturing of a new vision for humanity, and
dissidence will not be tolerated. If you believe the words of Carroll Quigley,
all resistance is futile and doomed to failure. If you believe the rhetoric of
internationalists in our own government, the current "trend towards
isolationism" will result in a loss of American hegemony in the New World
Order, leaving the United States a wrecked Third World wasteland.
World government can come in time,
piece by piece, arrived at through the full participation and consensus of the
human beings who will be affected by the negotiations. But the idea of the
world's elite determining what path that the common herd should follow is
repulsive to the human spirit. The story of the CFR goes far deeper than this
brief report, and is interlocked with several other international power groups.
International power orgs depend on
the masses remaining ignorant for their plans to come to fruition. It's up to
you to do your own research and draw your own conclusion. But remember: there's
a hell of a lot more to the story than Dan Rather will ever tell you. Educate
yourself, or remain a passive consumer. The choice is entirely yours.

Memorable CFR member
Quotes
Often times, the best way to expose
something is to quote it. Nothing so succinctly expresses the goals and
directives of the globalist conspiracy quite like a few good quotes from some
of their more prominent CFR members. We'll start it off with a quote from the
Chief Counsel to Congress' Reece Committee, which investigated the CFR during
the 1950s:
"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
"The Council on Foreign
Relations is the American branch of a society which originated in England ...
[and] ... believes national boundaries should be obliterated and one-world rule
established." --Dr. Carroll Quigley, CFR member, college mentor of
President Clinton, author of "Tragedy and Hope"
"... 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,"
1966
"I know 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, Tragedy and Hope
"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." --President
Clinton, in his acceptance speech for the Democratic Party's nomination for
president, 16 July 1992
"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
"The technotronic era involves
the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be
dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values. Soon it will be
possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and
maintain up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal
information about the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous
retrieval by the authorities." --Zbigniew Brzezinski
"[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
"There must be a thoroughgoing
reform of the world monetary system ... For its part, I can assure you, the
United States will continue to rise to its world responsibilities, joining with
other nations to create and participate in a modern world economic order."
--President Richard Nixon, CFR member, 1972
