The Beginnings of Globalisation

Cecil Rhodes had a vision of Britain reuniting with the USA and Britain becoming the ruling world power. He formed the secret society of the Knights of the round table. Had his vision come to fruition the world would at least have been governed by a democratic government, however as it grew so too did other interconnecting secret societies come into being created by super elites which contained a disproportionate number of Zionist Jews. Eventually the intrigues of the elites took control in their quest for a One World Government ruled by the unelected elite with no provision for elections.

Professor Carrol Quigley was one of the elite who believed that the conspiracy should be made known and wrote a book revealing the aims of the elites.

THE SECRET SOCIETY CREATED BY CECIL RHODES

From the vantage point of our time machine, now we flash back to the classroom

where John Ruskin is extolling the virtues of collectivism, and we notice that one of the

students is taking copious notes. His name is Cecil Rhodes. It will be revealed in later years

that this young man was so impressed by Ruskin’s message that he often referred to those

notes over the next thirty years of his life. Rhodes became a dedicated collectivist and

wanted to fulfill the dream and the promise of John Ruskin. His life mission was to bring the

British Empire into dominance over the entire world, to re-unite with America, and to create

world government based on the model of collectivism (as in Communism N.M.). His biographer, Sarah Millin,

summed it up when she wrote: “The government of the world was Rhodes’ simple desire.”

Most people are aware that Rhodes made one of the world’s greatest fortunes in South

African diamonds and gold. What is not widely known is that he spent most of that fortune

to promote the theories of John Ruskin.

One of the best authorities on the Fabian Society is Carroll Quigley, a highly

respected professor at Georgetown University. One of Quigley’s former students was

President Clinton. At a press conference shortly after he was elected, Clinton mentioned

Quigley by name and acknowledged that he was indebted to him for what he had learned.

What Quigley was teaching was similar to what John Ruskin had taught and, like Rhodes

before him, Clinton took those lectures very seriously. Incidentally, it should not go

unnoticed that Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar.

In his book The Anglo-American Establishment, Quigley says this:

The Rhodes scholarship established by the terms of Cecil Rhodes’ seventh

will are known to everyone. What is not so widely known is that Rhodes, in five

previous wills, left his fortune to form a secret society, which was to devote itself to

the preservation and expansion of the British Empire. And what does not seem to be

known to anyone is that this secret society … continues to exist to this day. To be

sure, [it] is not a childish thing like the Ku Klux Klan, and it does not have any secret

robes, secret handclasps, or secret passwords. It does not need any of these, since its

members know each other intimately. It probably has no oaths of secrecy nor any

formal procedure of initiation. It does, however, exist and holds secret meetings….

6

This Group is, as I shall show, one of the most important historical facts of the

twentieth century.1

One of the leaders and organizers of this secret society was W.T. Stead who wrote a

book about the wills of Cecil Rhodes. In that book, Stead said:

Mr. Rhodes was more than the founder of a dynasty. He aspired to be the

creator of one of those vast semi-religious, quasi-political associations which, like the

Society of Jesus, have played so large a part in the history of the world. To be more

strictly accurate, he wished to found an Order as the instrument of the will of the

Dynasty….2

The structure of the secret society was formed along classical, conspiratorial lines.

Most of the better-known conspiracies of history have been structured as rings within rings.

Generally there’s a leader or a small group of two or three people at the center. They form a

ring of supporters around them of perhaps ten or twelve, and those people think they are the

total organization. They are not aware that two or three of their group are in control. And

then the twelve create a larger ring around them of perhaps a hundred people who all think

they are the total organization, not realizing there are twelve who are really directing it.

These rings extend outward until, finally, they reach into the mainstream community where

they enlist the services of innocent people who perform various tasks of the secret society

without realizing who is creating the agenda or why.

The Rhodes organization was set up exactly along those lines. Quigley tells us this:

In the secret society, Rhodes was to be leader. Stead, Brett (Lord Esher), and

Milner were to form an executive committee [called “The Society of the Elect”].

Arthur (Lord) Balfour, (Sir) Harry Johnston, Lord Rothschild, Albert (Lord) Grey,

and others were listed as potential members of a “Circle of Initiates”; while there was

to be an outer circle known as the “Association of Helpers” (later organized by

Milner as the Round Table organization).3

After the death of Cecil Rhodes, the organization fell under the control of Lord

Alfred Milner, who was Governor General and High Commissioner of South Africa, also a

very powerful person in British banking and politics.4 He recruited young men from the

upper class of society to become part of the Association of Helpers. Unofficially, they were

known as “Milner’s Kindergarten.” They were chosen because of their upper-class origin,

their intelligence, and especially because of their dedication to collectivism. They were

quickly placed into important positions in government and other power centers to promote

the hidden agenda of the secret society. Eventually, this Association of Helpers became the

p. ix. The existence of this secret society is also confirmed by Rhodes’ biographer, Sarah Millin, op. cit, pp. 32, 171,

173, 216.

Additional reference to “The Society of the Elect” is in Anglo-American Establishment, pp. 3, 39.

4 Since this secret society continues to exist today, I am often asked who the leaders have been after Rhodes and Milner.

Under normal circumstances, that would be a silly question; because, if anyone on the outside knew the answer, it

would no longer be a secret organization. However, in a rare turn of events, we do know who the leaders have been up

until fairly recent times. Quigley was privy to the records of this organization and knew their names and order of

succession. A major portion of his book, The Anglo-American Establishment: was devoted to their role in history.

inner rings of larger groups, which expanded throughout the British Empire and into the

United States. This is what Quigley says:

Through Lord Milner’s influence, these men were able to win influential posts

in government, in international finance, and become the dominant influence in

British imperial affairs and foreign affairs up to 1939. In 1909 through 1913, they

organized semi-secret groups known as known as Round Table Groups, in the chief

British dependencies and the United States. These still function in eight countries….

Once again the task was given to Lionel Curtis who established, in England and each

dominion, a front organization to the existing local Round Table Group. This front

organization, called the Royal Institute of International Affairs, had as its nucleus in

each area the existing, submerged Round Table Group. In New York it was known as

the Council on Foreign Relations, and was a front for J.P. Morgan and Company.1

At last we come to that obscure organization that plays such a decisive roll in

contemporary American political life, The Council on Foreign Relations. Now we

understand that it was spawned from the secret society created by Cecil Rhodes – which still

exists today, that originally it was a front for J.P. Morgan and Company, and that its primary

purpose is to promote world government based on the model of collectivism.

THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS

So who are the members of the Council on Foreign Relations? I’m going to take

more time than I really want to spare in order to present these names to you but, otherwise,

you may think this organization and its members are not important.

Let’s start with the Presidents of the United States. Members of the Council on

Foreign Relations (CFR) include: Herbert Hoover, Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon,

Gerald Ford, James Carter, George Bush Senior, and William Clinton. John F. Kennedy

claimed he was a member, but his name does not appear on former membership lists. So

there is confusion on that one, but he said he was a member.. I might add that Kennedy was a

graduate of the London School of Economics, which was founded by Sydney and Beatrice

Webb to promote the ruling-class and collectivist concepts of the Fabians.

Current Presidential candidate, Senator John Kerry.

Secretaries of State who were CFR members include: Robert Lansing, Frank

Kellogg, Henry Stimpson, Cordell Hull, E.R. Stittinius, George Marshall, Dean Acheson,

John Foster Dulles, Christian Herter, Dean Rusk, William Rogers, Henry Kissinger, Cyrus

Vance, Edmund Muskie, Alexander Haig, George Schultz, James Baker, Lawrence

Eagelberger, Warren Christopher, William Richardson, Madeleine Albright, and Colin

Powell.

Secretaries of Defense who were members of the CFR include James Forrestal,

George Marshall, Charles Wilson, Neil McElroy, Robert McNamara, Melvin Laird, Elliot

Richardson, James Schlesinger, Harold Brown, Casper Weinberger, Frank Carlucci, Richard

Cheney, Les Aspin, William Perry, William Cohen, and Donald Rumsfeld. It is interesting

that Rumsfeld has asked that his name be removed from the current list of CFR members.

However, you will find his name on previous lists.

CIA Directors who were members of the CFR include Walter Smith, William

Colby, Richard Helms, Allen Dulles, John McCone, James Schlesinger, George Bush, Sr.,

Stansfield Turner, William Casey, William Webster, Robert Gates, James Woolsey, John

Deutch, William Studeman, and George Tenet.

In the Media there are past or present members of the CFR holding key management

or control positions – not just working down the line – but in top management and control

positions of The Army Times, American Publishers, American Spectator, Atlanta Journal-

Constitution, Associated Press, Association of American Publishers, Boston Globe,

Business Week, Christian-Science Monitor, Dallas Morning News, Detroit Free Press,

Detroit News, Forbes, Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy, Dow Jones News Service, USA

Interest, Reader’s Digest, Rolling Stone, Scientific American, Time-Warner, Time, U.S.

News & World Report, Washington Post, The Washingtonian, Weekly Standard, World

Policy Journal, Worldwatch, ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News, NBC, PBS, RCA, and the Walt

Disney Company.

CFR media personalities include David Brinkley, Tom Brokaw, William Buckley,

Dan Rather, Diane Sawyer, Barbara Walters, and Katie Couric..1

In the universities, the number of past or present CFR members who are professors,

department chairman, presidents, or members of the board of directors is 563.

In financial institutions, such as banks, the Federal Reserve System, the stock

exchanges, and brokerage houses the total number of CFR members in controlling positions

is 284.

In tax exempt foundations and think tanks, the number of CFR members in

controlling positions is 443. Some of the better known names are: The American Civil

Liberties Union,2 Aspen Institute, Atlantic Council, Bilderberg Group, Brookings Institute,

Read on:-

1 Peter Jennings and Bill Moyer, although not members of the CFR, are members of the Bilderberg Group, which has

the same ideological orientation as the CFR but functions at the international level as a kind of steering committee to

coordinate the activities of similar groups in other countries.

2The ACLU enjoys the reputation of being a defender of civil liberties. In keeping with that image, it has spoken against

the Patriot Act and other legislation that denies civil liberties in the name of fighting terrorism. So far, so good, but there

is a difference between speaking out on a topic and actually doing something about it. When it comes to applying its

legal and financial resources, the ACLU moves in other directions. At the time of this writing, the Executive Director of

the ACLU is Anthony Romero, a member of the CFR. Previously, he had been in charge of the Ford Foundation’s grant

program where he channeled approximately $90 million to organizations promoting “crisis” messages that frighten the

public into accepting bigger government, which means into accepting laws like the Patriot Act. For example, The Ford

Foundation has funded studies and groups promoting the concepts of environmental crisis and population-growth crisis

and then calling for vast new government powers as the only way to head off global catastrophy. The Foundation has

been a major source of funding for MALDEF, LaRaza, and other Hispanic separatist groups, which means it finances

those who call for breaking away parts of California and Texas and giving them to Mexico. It also has funded the

American Indian Movement, which has a similar separatist agenda for parts of the U.S where American Indian

populations are prominent. It is not likely that either movement would ever succeed; but if enough revolutionaries can

be funded and mobilized into the streets with violent demonstrations and riots, peaceful citizens are expected to

gratefully accept martial law and internationalization of these areas as acceptable alternatives to violence. In all of these

Guggenheim Foundation, Hudson Institute, John D. & Catherine T. MacArther Foundation,

Mellon Foundation, RAND Corp., Rhodes Scholarship Selection Commission, Sloan and

Kettering Foundations, Rockefeller Foundation and Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Trilateral

Commission, and the UN Association.

Some of the better known corporations controlled by past or present members of

the CFR include The Atlantic Richfield Oil Co., AT&T, Avon Products, Bechtel

(construction) Group, Boeing Company, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Chevron., Coca Cola and

Pepsi Cola, Consolidated Edison of New York, EXXON, Dow Chemical, du Pont Chemical,

Oil, Smith Kline Beecham (pharmaceuticals), Sprint Corp., Texaco, Santa Fe Southern-

Pacific Railroad, Teledyne, TRW, Southern California Edison, Unocal, United

Technologies, Verizon Communications, Warner-Lambert, Weyerhauser, and Xerox.

And finally, the labor unions that are dominated by past or present members of the

CFR include the AFL-CIO, United Steel Workers of America, United Auto Workers,

American Federation of Teachers, Bricklayers and Allied Craft, Communications Workers

of America, Union of Needletrades, and Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers.

Please understand that this is just a sampling of the list. The total membership is

about four thousand people. There are many churches in your community that have that

many members or more. What would you think if it were discovered that members of just

one church in your community held controlling positions in 80% of the power centers of

America? Wouldn’t you be curious? First of all you would have to find out about it, which

would not be easy if those same people controlled the avenues of information that you rely

on to learn of such things.

I should emphasize that most of these people are not part of a secret society. The

CFR calls itself a semi-secret organization, which, indeed, it is. It is not the secret society. It

is at least two rings out from that. Most members are not aware that they are controlled by

an inner Round Table Group. For the most part, they are merely opportunists who view this

organization as a high level employment agency. They know that, if they are invited to join,

their names will appear on a prestigious list, and collectivists seeking to consolidate global

control will draw upon that list for important jobs. However, even though they may not be

conscious agents of a secret society, they have all been carefully screened for suitability.

cases, the role played by the Ford Foundation is to fan the flames of fear, to frighten us into accepting a police state at

home, comfortably merged with other police states at the UN, in a world government based on the model of

collectivism. The ACLU supports these causes strongly and speaks against their consequences softly. This is a classic

case of controlling one’s own opposition to insure that it does not succeed. It is an extension of the strategy described to

Norman Dodd in 1954 by Ford Foundation President, Rowan Gaither when he explained that war – and the dread of war

– was the most effective way to bring people to accept a rapid shift in society toward collectivism. Dread of war is still

the most powerful motivator, but collectivists have discovered that dread of terrorism, dread of environmental

catastrophe, and dread of overpopulation are also useful for this purpose. For that part of the story, see chapter twentyfour,

“Doomsday Mechanisms,” in The Creature from Jekyll Island; A Second Look at the Federal Reserve.

Only collectivists are invited, and so they have the necessary mindset to be good

functionaries within the New World Order.

Undoubtedly you noticed from the list of CFR members that both major American

political parties are well represented. This is not a partisan organization. Voters are led to

believe that, by choosing between the Democratic and Republican parties, they have a

choice. They actually think they are participating in their own political destiny, but that is an

illusion. To a collectivist like Professor Quigley, it is a necessary illusion to prevent the

voters from meddling into the important affairs of state. If you have ever wondered why the

two American parties appear so different at election time but not so different afterward,

listen carefully to Quigley’s approving overview of American politics:

The National parties and their presidential candidates, with the Eastern

Establishment assiduously fostering the process behind the scenes, moved closer

together and nearly met in the center with almost identical candidates and platforms,

although the process was concealed as much as possible, by the revival of

obsolescent or meaningless war cries and slogans (often going back to the Civil

War). … The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and

policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea

acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties

should be almost identical, so that the American people can “throw the rascals out” at

any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy. … Either

party in office becomes in time corrupt, tired, unenterprising, and vigorless. Then it

should be possible to replace it, every four years if necessary, by the other party,

which will be none of these things but will still pursue, with new vigor,

approximately the same basic policies.1

REVIEW

Now it’s time to review. The power centers of the United States – including both

major political parties – are controlled by members of the Council on Foreign Relations.

This, in turn, is controlled by a submerged Round Table Group, which is associated with

other Round Tables in other countries. These are extensions of a secret society founded by

Cecil Rhodes and still in operation today. I call it the Fabian Network, not because these

people are members of the Fabian Society, for most of them are not. It is because they share

the Fabian ideology of global collectivism and the Fabian strategy of patient gradualism.

Is this reality? If I were in your position, being exposed to all of this for the first time,

I probably would think, “Oh come on! This can’t be true! If it were, I would have read about

it in the newspaper.” Well, before you dismiss it as just another conspiracy theory, I’d like

to refer you one more time to Professor Quigley. He said this:

I know of the operation of this network because I have studied it for twenty

years and was permitted for two years during the 1960’s 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. In general my chief difference of

opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown.2
