The Council on Foreign Relations and the New World Order
By Charles Overbeck (PSCPirhana) Matrix Editor
The Council on Foreign Relations, housed in the Harold Pratt
House on East 68th Street in New York City, was founded in 1921. In 1922, it began
publishing a journal called Foreign Affairs. According to Foreign Affairs' web page
(http://www.foreignaffairs.org), the CFR was founded when "...several of the American
participants in the Paris Peace Conference decided that it was time for more private
American Citizens to become familiar with the increasing international responsibilities
and obligations of the United States."
The first question that comes to mind is, who gave these people
the authority to decide the responsibilities and obligations of the United States, if that
power was not granted to them by the Constitution. Furthermore, the CFR's web page doesn't
publicize the fact that it was originally conceived as part of a much larger network of
power.
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 a meeting on June 5, 1919,
the planners decided it would be best to have separate organizations cooperating with each
other. Consequently, they organized the Council on Foreign Relations, with headquarters in
New York, 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
exclusively with Far Eastern Affairs. Other organizations were set up in Paris and
Hamburg..."
The 3,000 seats of the CFR quickly filled with members of
America's elite. Today, CFR members occupy key positions in government, the mass media,
financial institutions, multinational corporations, the military, and the national
security apparatus.
Since its inception, the CFR has served as an intermediary
between high finance, big oil, corporate elitists and the U.S. government. The executive
branch changes hands between Republican and Democratic administrations, but cabinet seats
are always held by CFR members. It has been said by political commentators on the left and
on the right that if you want to know what U.S. foreign policy will be next year, you
should read Foreign Affairs this year.
The CFR's claim that "The Council has no affiliation with
the U.S. government" is laughable. The justification for that statement is that
funding comes from member dues, subscriptions to its Corporate Program, foundation grants,
and so forth. All this really means is that the U.S. government does not exert any control
over the CFR via the purse strings.
In reality, CFR members are very tightly affiliated with the U.S.
government. Since 1940, every U.S. secretary of state (except for Gov. James Byrnes of
South Carolina, the sole exception) has been a member of the Council on Foreign Relations
and/or its younger brother, the Trilateral Commission. Also since 1940, every secretary of
war and every secretary of defense has been a CFR member. During most of its existence,
the Central Intelligence Agency has been headed by CFR members, beginning with CFR
founding member Allen Dulles. Virtually every key U.S. national security and foreign
policy adviser has been a CFR member for the past seventy years.
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
