"We are grateful to the Washington
Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great
publications whose directors have attended our meetings and
respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years.
... It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for
the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity
during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and
prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational
sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely
preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past
centuries."

"In the next century, nations as we
know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single,
global authority. National sovereignty wasn't such a great idea
after all."

"The governments of the present day
have to deal not merely with other governments, with emperors,
kings and ministers, but also with the secret societies which
have everywhere their unscrupulous agents, and can at the last
moment upset all the governments' plans."
-British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, 1876
-British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, 1876
"The very word "secrecy" is repugnant
in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently
and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths
and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers
of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far
outweighed the dangers, which are cited to justify it."
-- President John F. Kennedy, Address to newspaper publishers; April 27, 1961

"The real menace of our republic is
this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its
slimy length over city, state and nation. Like the octopus of
real life, it operates under cover of a self created
screen....At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller
Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking
houses generally referred to as international bankers. The
little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run
the United States government for their own selfish purposes.
They practically control both political parties."

"From the days of Sparticus,
Weishaupt, Karl Marx, Trotsky, Rosa Luxemberg, and Emma Goldman,
this world conspiracy has been steadily growing. This conspiracy
played a definite recognizable role in the tragedy of the French
revolution. It has been the mainspring of every subversive
movement during the 19th century. And now at last this band of
extraordinary personalities from the underworld of the great
cities of Europe and America have gripped the Russian people by
the hair of their head and have become the undisputed masters of
that enormous empire."
-Winston Churchill, stated to the London Press, in l922.

"For a long time I felt that FDR had
developed many thoughts and ideas that were his own to benefit
this country, the United States. But, he didn't. Most of his
thoughts, his political ammunition, as it were, were carefully
manufactured for him in advanced by the Council on Foreign
Relations-One World Money group. Brilliantly, with great gusto,
like a fine piece of artillery, he exploded that prepared
"ammunition" in the middle of an unsuspecting target, the
American people, and thus paid off and returned his
internationalist political support."

"The depression was the calculated
'shearing' of the public by the World Money powers, triggered by
the planned sudden shortage of supply of call money in the New
York money market....The One World Government leaders and their
ever close bankers have now acquired full control of the money
and credit machinery of the U.S. via the creation of the
privately owned Federal Reserve Bank."

"Today the path of total dictatorship
in the United States can be laid by strictly legal means, unseen
and unheard by the Congress, the President, or the people.
Outwardly we have a Constitutional government. We have operating
within our government and political system, another body
representing another form of government - a bureaucratic elite.
-Senator William Jenner, 1954
-Senator William Jenner, 1954
"The Trilateral Commission is intended
to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the
commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the
political government of the United States. The Trilateral
Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize
control and consolidate the four centers of power political,
monetary, intellectual and ecclesiastical. What the Trilateral
Commission intends is to create a worldwide economic power
superior to the political governments of the nationstates
involved. As managers and creators of the system, they will rule
the future."

"The Council on Foreign Relations is
"the establishment." Not only does it have influence and power
in key decision-making positions at the highest levels of
government to apply pressure from above, but it also announces
and uses individuals and groups to bring pressure from below, to
justify the high level decisions for converting the U.S. from a
sovereign Constitutional Republic into a servile member state of
a one-world dictatorship."
-Former Congressman John Rarick 1971

"The term Internationalism has been
popularized in recent years to cover an interlocking financial,
political, and economic world force for the purpose of
establishing a World Government. Today Internationalism is
heralded from pulpit and platform as a 'League of Nations' or a
'Federated Union' to which the United States must surrender a
definite part of its National Sovereignty. The World Government
plan is being advocated under such alluring names as the 'New
International Order,' 'The New World Order,' 'World Union Now,'
'World Commonwealth of Nations,' 'World Community,' etc. All the
terms have the same objective; however, the line of approach may
be religious or political according to the taste or training of
the individual."

"The most powerful clique in these
(CFR) groups have one objective in common: they want to bring
about the surrender of the sovereignty and the national
independence of the U.S. They want to end national boundaries
and racial and ethnic loyalties supposedly to increase business
and ensure world peace. What they strive for would inevitably
lead to dictatorship and loss of freedoms by the people. The CFR
was founded for "the purpose of promoting disarmament and
submergence of U.S. sovereignty and national independence into
an all-powerful one-world government."
-Harpers, July l958

"... when the struggle seems to be
drifting definitely towards a world social democracy, there may
still be very great delays and disappointments before it becomes
an efficient and beneficent world system. Countless people ...
will hate the new world order ... and will die protesting
against it. When we attempt to evaluate its promise, we have to
bear in mind the distress of a generation or so of malcontents,
many of them quite gallant and graceful-looking people."

"The government of the Western
nations, whether monarchical or republican, had passed into the
invisible hands of a plutocracy, international in power and
grasp. It was, I venture to suggest, this semioccult power
which....pushed the mass of the American people into the
cauldron of World War I."

"Next the statesmen will invent cheap
lies, putting the blame upon the nation that is attacked, and
every man will be glad of those conscience-soothing falsities,
and will diligently study them, and refuse to examine any
refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince himself
that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep he
enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception."

"We're an empire now, and when we act,
we create our own reality. And while you're studying that
reality -- judiciously, as you will -- we'll act again, creating
other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how
things will sort out. We're history's actors . . . and you, all
of you, will be left to just study what we do."

"The Matrix is everywhere. It is all
around us, even now in this very room. You can see it when you
look out your window, or when you turn on your television. You
can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you
pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your
eyes to blind you from the truth."

"And at the same time the
consciousness of being at war, and therefore in danger, makes
the handing-over of all power to a small caste seem the natural,
unavoidable condition of survival... It does not matter whether
the war is actually happening, and, since no decisive victory is
possible, it does not matter whether the war is going well or
badly. All that is needed is that a state of war should exist...
The war, therefore, if we judge it by the standards of previous
wars, is merely an imposture. It is like the battles between
certain ruminant animals whose horns are set at such an angle
that they are incapable of hurting one another. But though it is
unreal it is not meaningless. It eats up the surplus of
consumable goods, and it helps to preserve the special mental
atmosphere that a hierarchical society needs. War, it will be
seen, is now a purely internal affair. In the past, the ruling
groups of all countries, although they might recognize their
common interest and therefore limit the destructiveness of war,
did fight against one another, and the victor always plundered
the vanquished. In our own day they are not fighting against one
another at all. The war is waged by each ruling group against
its own subjects, and the object of the war is not to make or
prevent conquests of territory, but to keep the structure of
society intact. The very word 'war', therefore, has become
misleading. It would probably be accurate to say that by
becoming continuous war has ceased to exist.
