________________________________________________________________ Part 2 of 2 -> __________________________________ 2) UNDERSTANDING THE NEW WORLD ORDER by Joshua2 THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS 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. ( Sound familiar ? ) 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. - 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.

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..... UNION BOSSES IN THE CFR -- ( past and recent ) I.W.Abel - Pres.

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. - The Jews in this group are almost all " Assimilated Jews ". - They ALL SEE THE NATION STATE AS OBSOLETE. - They are striving to reorganize the world community into Trading Blocks, WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED, EVEN IN THE "DEMOCRATIC" NATIONS. - 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, as defined by the groups under discussion here, and disseminated through the mass media for public consumption.
