Dear cj,
Here's an article by "Joshua2" (the nom-de-plum of an American
named William Schwartz) which provides a concise yet comprehensive primer
to major conspiracy threads behind the New World Order, a kind of
"Conspiracy 101" for students of the NWO. These aren't mystical referenc=
es
to an "Illuminati" or "Secret Masonry", but rather, it seems, a
well-documented trail of not-that-secret, but outside-the-public-loop,
influence and control over global events by concious, organized members o=
f
elite circles. (Second part tomorrow.)

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 a=
n
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 defini=
ng
the terms...
PROPAGANDA - prop=EFa=EFgan=EFda (prop=EA=C9 gan=C7d=C9) n. 1. inform=
ation 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 distingui=
shes
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 influen=
ce
the public to covert means of persuasion. Psychological warfare is a form=
of
propaganda employed to confuse and demoralize enemy populations. BRAINWAS=
HING
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 ( l=
ess
extreme, but much more pervasive - J2 ) for example, has been regarded a=
s
propaganda. Information on consumer sentiments toward various products, t=
heir
packaging, and sales and advertising techniques is obtained through marke=
t
research. The information is then used to mount advertising campaigns mak=
ing
one-sided appeals to consumer preferences.designed to avert potential
dangers.
The larger the propaganda enterprise, the more important are such mass me=
dia
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 frequentl=
y
used by propagandists when selecting a means of reaching the public. Usin=
g a
method known as content analysis, the propagandist can quantitatively mea=
sure
the symbolic content of his or her own propaganda and that of others. Sym=
bol
analysis has also been used to estimate the degree of fear and tension wi=
thin
a country. Apparently, at the height of a crisis, editorials concentrate =
on
relatively few main symbols, whereas under relaxed conditions a broader s=
et
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 combinatio=
n 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 co=
mmit
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 vict=
ims,
conspirators are also subject to civil suit for the recovery of damages. =
(
Grolier's Multimedia Encyclopedia )
If you and a neighbor secretly plan a surprise birthday party for anot=
her
neighbor, this is not a conspiracy.
If you and a neighbor secretly plan a surprise birthday party for ano=
ther
neighbor in the hope that he will get drunk and agree to pay half the cos=
t of
a fence that you would like to install, then this is a conspiracy. The po=
int
being that a third party is negatively affected by the conscious effort o=
f
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 (noun) --
Synonyms: PLOT 2, cabal, covin, intrigue, machination, practice, sch=
eme
Related words: sedition, treason; disloyalty, faithlessness, falsity=
,
perfidiousness, perfidy, treacherousness, treachery
Contrasted words: faith, faithfulness, fealty, loyalty
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 th=
at
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. T=
he
most famous examples are the JFK assassination conspiracy theories. From
Oliver Stone's movie to the deathbed confessions of a Mafia don, one thin=
g 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 fram=
e of
reference. In the old days, and among primitive and / or uneducated peopl=
e,
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,Cabbalah ) 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 t=
he
White Devils invented Aids to decimate their ( Black's ) population is
laughable to educated Blacks and just about all Whites. It's not that Whi=
te
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 ever=
y
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 " Conspiracies".
EDUCATED SUCKERS --
Several months ago C-Span aired a debate between Joe Madison, a Washin=
gton
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. ( Capitalis=
ms
Independent Army) was either responsible for, or complicit in the crack
cocaine devastation of the urban poor in California and eventually the ur=
ban
poor in the rest of the country. If these allegations are true, then that
makes North and the national security people mass murderers of their own
citizens.
There are ample numbers of CIA and DEA agents ready to testify that th=
is
is true. This comes as no surprise to the Left, or to Vietnam War Vets, o=
r 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 b=
roke
the story this time around, of buying into and foisting upon the public "
conspiracy theories",and even mentioned Oliver Stone. Knowing full well w=
hat
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 differen=
t
from a fact,) while painting the accuser as paranoid or gullible. This le=
aves
the intelligent educated audience feeling superior, and the doubt provide=
s
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, directed against the very pe=
ople
who pay for them. The unleashing of drugs, bugs, and thugs on an unsuspec=
ting
civilian population. A heist so big, that one book on the subject of the =
S&L
whitecollar collusion between congress and bankers, is entitled "The Grea=
test
Ever Bank Robbery" . Even that title understates the amount of money
successfully stolen by conspiring businessmen and public servants. Let's =
turn
Social Security over to these people. But enough about conspiracy theorie=
s,
lets talk about the " Rich ".
" THE RICH ARE NOT LIKE THE REST OF US " --
The people we are talking about here are referred to by Ferdinand Lund=
berg
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 se=
e 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 know=
n as
the Supreme Court. These people should be viewed as a social class becaus=
e
they intermarry and have common interests. The two most common interests =
they
have are ...
1) How to keep from losing any of their money.
2) How to get allot more, and keep from losing that too.
These are truly worthy endeavors, and keep these people busy and out o=
f
our lives ... except around election time.

" The real rulers in Washington are invisible, and exercise power from
behind the scenes." Felix Frankfurter -- Supreme Court
Justice, CFR
" I care not what puppet is placed on the throne of England to rule th=
e
Empire,... The man that controls Britain's money supply controls the Brit=
ish
Empire. And I control the money supply." Baron Nathan Mayer de
Rothschild
THE NEW WORLD ORDER --
Most people think that George ( Skull and Bones ) Bush invented the ph=
rase
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 abou=
t it
???
A SNOOTY MEN'S CLUB --
Cecil Rhodes went to Oxford University where to the amazement of no on=
e,
he learned that, "the British upper classes possessed a glorious traditio=
n of
beauty, decency, education, law, and self - discipline ". ( Tragedy and =
Hope
-- Carroll Quigley )
After a solid education at Oxford, he was now prepared to steal as muc=
h 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 witt=
ily
named Rhodesia. Towards the end of his life he had a personal yearly inco=
me
of $ 100,000,000 dollars in today's money.
HE HAD A DREAM --
He desired " to federate the English - speaking peoples and to bring a=
ll
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 ver=
y
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... Ste=
ad (
one of the group ) was able to get Rhodes to accept, in principal, a solu=
tion
which might have made Washington the capital of the whole organization or
allow parts of the empire to become states of the American Union.
The American branch of this organization ( a.k.a. the " Eastern
Establishment ") has played a very significant role in the United States =
in
the last generation ( pre-WWII ).
The chief backbone of this organization grew up along the already exis=
ting
financial cooperation running from the Morgan Bank in New York to a group=
of
international financiers in London led by Lazard Brothers. Lord Milner be=
came
a director of the precursor to the giant Midland Bank. He became one of t=
he
greatest political and financial powers in England with his disciples pla=
ced
throughout England in significant places, such as the editorship of the
Times, the editorship of the Observer, the managing directorship of Lazar=
d
Brothers, various administrative posts, and even Cabinet positions.
Ramifications were established in politics, high finance, Oxford and Lond=
on
Universities, periodicals, the civil service, and tax - exempt foundation=
s."
( from " Tragedy and Hope " by Ivy League luminary, historian Dr. Carro=
l
Quigley )
THE ROUND TABLE GROUPS --
After the death of Cecil Rhodes in 1902, Lord Milner became the execut=
or
of Rhodes' trust. He organized " discreet " discussion / study / work gro=
ups
known as the Round Table Groups throughout the Empire, including America.=
In
1919, these groups established the Royal Institute of International Affai=
rs.
The Council on Foreign Relations was the U.S. affiliate of the R.I.I.A. a=
nd
the other Round Table Groups.
" 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 othe=
rs,
which included Owen D. Young, Russel Leffingwell, Norman Davis, Allen Dul=
les,
George Wickersham, Frank L. Polk, Whitney Sheperdson, Isaiah Bowman, Step=
han
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 are Episcopalian=
and
highly urbane. They are the models for the old " high society " character=
s
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. Especia=
lly
their investments in Europe, and more especially their investments in Ger=
man
corporations 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 ca=
lled
Citicorp ) the CFR had a healthy start in life. It was and continues to b=
e
nourished by the giant tax averting foundations of the super rich, and di=
rect
donations from the Fortune 500.
THE FOUNDATIONS --
Why are there " philanthropic foundations " ? Why would people who
dedicated their lives to accumulating wealth and by extension, power, wan=
t 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 t=
he
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 int=
o
view since the enactment of the income tax and estate laws: The foundatio=
ns
are completely exempt not only with respect to income taxes but also capi=
tal
gains taxes. One does not know in each case that the founder sought to es=
cape
taxes, but common reason would indicate it. Many standard tax advisory
services explicitly point to these factors as attractive features of
foundations.
- Corporate Control ... which would otherwise be undermined by tax law=
s,
is preserved to perpetuity by many foundations, permitting the hereditary
transmission, tax free, of vast corporate power.
- 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 proje=
cts.
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 employer's w=
orld
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 the
conservative or right American Enterprise Institue. These debates are mos=
t
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 Night=
line
?
It should also be understood that when hugh amounts of money are exclu=
ded
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.
" The grant-making foundation can exercise enormous power through the
direct use of its funds. Moreover it materially increases its power and i=
ts
influence by building collaeral alliances which serve greatly to insulate=
it
against criticism... These dangers to our society relate chiefly to the u=
se
of foundation funds for political ends; they arise out of the accumulatio=
n 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 out=
side
of our democratic processes, which is willing and able to shape the futur=
e of
this nation and of mankind in the image of its own values and concepts. =
"
( Rene Wormser, author of " Foundations ", lawyer, and professiona=
l
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 facu=
lty,
Arts and Sciences Dept. at Harvard ) are two well known examples of many.
