Hidden Power

THE BEGINNING

The idea of world domination is not new. All history is filled with dictators and groups of people who tried to conquer and enslave others: Alexander the Great; the Roman Empire; Attila the Hun; the Holy Roman Empire; the Ottoman Empire, etc. But all of these early attempts to conquer the world were done by individuals or groups working alone and using great speed and brute force to accomplish their goals. The people conquered were very painfully aware of what had happened to them, and bitterly hated their enslavers, so in time they always rose up against their conquerors to overthrow them. As they say, History repeats itself, until recently.

A little over 200 years ago there began a traceable sequence of events never before seen in all of recorded history! Like a tiny pebble dropped into a pond, causing ripples to spread across the entire surface of the water, this pattern of events began with a very small seed of an idea which has grown into ever-widening circles. But unlike the pebble's ripples, which slowly lose their force and impact, the circles of influence spawned by this small seed of an idea have grown not only in size, but also in strength and power until now they are the force and impact behind all the major governments in all the world!

This small seed of an idea began with the age-old desire of men to rule the world - but this time there was to be a difference. No more marauding armies. No despotic dictators. No chains or torture. Nothing to give the conquered masses any clear idea of who the enemy was - or that an enemy even existed! Just a meticulously planned and subtly implemented plot to enslave the entire planet into a world-wide dictatorship, a "New World Order." Instead of open aggression and invading troops, which are easily recognized and branded as "the enemy", the enslavement of all the world's population was to be done secretly, behind closed doors, in clandestine meetings. And not by some lone dictator, but by a closed club of "elitists" whose goal was/is world domination. Their insidious plan has almost reached it's final, frightening conclusion, for they hope to have their "New World Order" of global dominance in full control by the year 2017.

About now you're probably wondering, "But what do you mean by "no more marauding armies? In the last 200 years, the world has seen more insurrections, revolutions, invasions, and other wars than all the rest of recorded history combined!" And you would be right! The difference is that in this most recent period of history, every major military conflict - and most minor ones as well - have been carefully planned, implemented and orchestrated by this elitist group, whom we shall call the "international banking conspirators"!

Your next thought will very likely be (like mine was), "an international conspiracy? Give me a break! If our own Congress can't even agree on anything, how could people from numerous cultures and backgrounds possibly conspire together to create anything, let alone a 'One World Government'!"

Good point! And one counted on by the conspirators. You see, I too, firmly believed that there never was and never could be anything so vast and well-organized as an international conspiracy of this magnitude. A conspiracy that has gone (for the most part) completely undetected by its victims for so long a time.

In school (which is largely controlled by these monsters - as you will soon see) we are taught an "accidental" version of history. This "accidental" perspective takes the view that most things "just happen" in an unplanned, disorganized or chaotic manner. For example, World War I started because Archduke Ferdinand was assassinated. Period. It "just happened". The Federal Reserve was created to prevent massive boom-bust cycles in the economy. Period. The boom-bust cycles "just happened". Major military operations of the US (Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Somalia, Haiti and Bosnia) have all been under the "authority" of the United Nations in the name of "international cooperation and global harmony". There was no particular reason for the UN having control, it was just a "nice" way of doing things. In other words, "It just happened". Period.

But if you look a little closer - if you dig a little deeper - you might start to ask yourself, "Who had a motive? Who killed the Archduke, why did they do it, and who benefited?" Or, "Who or what caused the massive boom-bust cycles in the economy before the Federal Reserve was created, and who benefited from its creation?" And more recently, "Why has the US ceded some of its sovereignty (without the consent of the citizens) to the UN? How much power rightfully belonging to the "government of the people, by the people, and for the people" has been given without the consent "of the people" to the UN?" "Who benefits by this unauthorized transition of power (and who loses)?"

When you ask these probing questions, and the answers all point to the international banking cartel (hereafter referred to as "conspirators" or "international banking conspiracy"). You can come to no other conclusion but that there was, and still is, an international conspiracy of monstrous proportions, designed to destroy all remaining vestiges of individual freedom and liberty, and plunge the entire planet into despotic and demonic dictatorship, far more terrifying than anything the world has ever seen!

Franklin D. Roosevelt (who was one of the conspiracy insiders, as we will soon see) said it best: "In politics nothing happens by accident. If it happened, you can bet it was planned that way!" Then why do most of us scoff at the very idea of a conspiracy? We flatly refuse to believe (as I did) that such an insidious and all-encompassing plot could have been so secretly and meticulously woven against us, completely without our knowledge.

It really is hard to believe the sheer magnitude and intricacy of the web of deceit, fraud and outright lies that has been carefully woven around us! But the main reason most people refuse to believe that a conspiracy even exists, is that we have all been brainwashed into believing that such a thing could never happen!

G. Edward Griffin, author of The Creature FromJekyll Island (an in-depth expose of the Federal Reserve), puts it this way, "The reason it [a conspiracy] is hard to accept, is that we have been conditioned [by the conspiracy controlled media and education system] to laugh at conspiracy theories, and few people will risk public ridicule by advocating them. On the other hand, to endorse the accidental view is absurd.

Almost all of history is an unbroken trail of one conspiracy after another. Conspiracies are the norm, not the exception." Or as author Arthur Edward Waite observed, "Beneath the broad tide of human history there flows the stealthy undercurrents of the secret societies, which frequently determine in the depths the changes that take place on the surface."

THE "ILLUMINATI"

"So you see, the world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes"- Benjamin Disraeli

The term "New World Order" was the motto of the secret society of the "Illuminati" (or "the Enlightened Ones"). Adam Weishaupt formed the Illuminati in 1776. He was a Jesuit priest and professor of Canon Law (law of the Church) at lngoistadt University in Bavaria (a part of southeast Germany, near the Czechoslovakian border). He founded the Illuminati largely in retaliation to the order by Pope Clement XIV to "annul and extinguish the Jesuits," because of their political activism.

By the way, the symbol of the Illuminati (adopted from the FreeMasons) was a pyramid, with an "all-seeing eye" at the top (the historical symbol of the Egyptian god Osiris - the dark god, Prince of the dead). This symbol was intended to signify the few "enlightened" (intelligentsia) people at the top in a position of power over and supported by the mass of followers (slaves) which comprised the base of the pyramid. At the bottom of the base appeared the number "1776", which is the year of the founding of the order, and also coincidentally (or not?), the year of the American Declaration of Independence. Above the pyramid, in Latin, are the words "Annuit Coeptis", which means "our enterprise (conspiracy) has been crowned with success." Below the pyramid, also in Latin, are the words "Novus Ordo Seclorum," meaning "New Order of Things," or "New World Order."

(As an interesting aside, Adam Weishaupt founded the order of the Illuminati on May 1st, 1776. This is why May 1st has always been the international "Red" holiday - honoring the birthday of the movement dedicated to the establishment of a global dictatorship, which has become known as the "New World Order", after their own motto!)

I'm sure this symbol is very familiar to you, because it appears on the back of every one "dollar" Federal Reserve Note! Of course the next big question is "Why is it on our money?" To answer that question, let's resume our story...

The Illuminati grew quickly, seeking out the "cream of the crop" in European society - the wealthy and well-educated upper class and intellectuals. Although they were among Europe's "finest", they were still below the level of rulers. They were close to "power", but close was not good enough! They truly believed that they were superior to the ruling class, and thus more qualified to rule. In other words, they wanted the power for themselves. Convinced that the Illuminati would soon rule the world, they began to work passionately toward that day when they would become members of the new ruling class.

The philosophy of the Illuminati was that man was not responsible for his actions, society was - and therefore society should be punished for the acts of criminals. They also believed that only an all powerful government of superior people (such as themselves) could properly control society, and make sure that it was "right" - according to the way they believed things "should be.”

THE "SECRET PLAN" OF THE ILLUMINATI

To achieve this goal of world domination, the Illuminati established a plan which called for total destruction from within (in other words, by infiltration, not insurrection) of all religion, governments, and other previously existing human institutions.

They would accomplish this by abolishing: the family as we know it; all religions; all forms of government; all private property and inheritance; patriotism and nationalism and all other forms of individual and national sovereignty. Out of the chaos, anarchy, suffering, and confusion, the Illuminati would establish their New World Order.

The work of the Illuminati laid the very foundation for modern spying and espionage techniques. By the nature of their quest, they relied on deceit and concealment as the most effective weapons in their struggle to achieve world domination. Exposure and Truth meant Death! Weishaupt knew this only too well! In his own words: "The great strength of our order lies in its concealment. Let it never appear in any place in its own name, but always covered by another name and another occupation."

The order of the Illuminati continued to grow in power and influence, and with an ever-increasing reach into the innermost circles of European governments. Much of the credit for the spread of the Illuminati doctrine is attributed to a single, ambitious banker from Frankfurt, Germany - Amschel Moses Bauer.

Amschel, who later changed his last name to Rothschild (loosely translated to mean "Red Shield"), started a goldsmith shop, a fractional reserve bank, and several smuggling operations by 1743 (when he was barely more than 20 years old!). He began accumulating considerable wealth by lending money to governments.

Experiencing first hand the incredible power that money can wield, Amschel became fascinated with power for its own sake, and the accumulation of more and more of it. He was an avid student of the secret societies of the day which sought global power: the Rosicrucians ("Red Cross Society"); the Free Masons, who are actually credited with originating the Illuminati symbol of the pyramid (representing the unfinished work of the Free Masons), topped by the brightly shining, all-seeing eye of the Illuminati (meaning "enlightened ones"), who would "over-see" the rest of humanity (in other words, control everyone else in a dictatorial world government); and, of course, the Illuminati themselves.

In 1773, when Amschel had accumulated sufficient funds through his fractional reserve and usury banking practices, he called a secret meeting in his old goldsmith shop with 12 of the most powerful and influential men of the time. The purpose of this meeting was to convince the attendees to pool their resources and, with the help of his plan, gain total control of the resources of the world!

The plan Amschel laid out consisted of several steps, including:

1. Law is force in disguise. Right lies in force ("Might makes Right"). The right to rule lies in force.
2. Political freedom is an idea, not a fact. In order to usurp political power, all that is necessary is to preach "liberalism",
   and the electorates will give up more and more power to the conspirators.
3. Money is all-powerful. Governments are insignificant compared to money. Since governments control the money, that
   control must be removed from governments, and put in the hands of the conspirators.
4. Any and all means to achieve the goal of world domination by the conspirators is justified.
5. The size, scope, and power of the "conspirators" resources must remain hidden.
6. Alcohol, drugs, and moral corruption shall be used to weaken the will of the people.
7. Wars should be instigated and orchestrated so that both sides would be in their debt (in other words, the conspirators
   would gain profit and power, no matter who "won" the wars!).
8. Propaganda and control of information should be used to influence opinion.
9. Pre-planned and artificially manipulated financial panics and depression should be used to tame the people, and weaken
   governments, so as to ultimately form a one-world government, with the conspirators as the rulers.

Amschel had 5 sons, 4 of whom he sent to the major cities of four different major powers of Europe, to establish or gain control over the major central bank of each country. Solomon went to Vienna, Austria; Nathan to London, England; Carl to Naples, Italy; James to Paris, France; while Meyer (and Amschel) stayed in Frankfurt, Germany. In addition to these major countries of Germany, Austria, England, Italy and France, the Rothschilds did extensive banking for the governments of Belgium, Spain, Brazil, and many other countries. This was all part of Amschel's plan to gain control over vast wealth and power.

By having each of his sons running successful central banks in each country, Amschel could influence the economy and politics of Europe, to create economic panics and wars, just as he had planned. Each country's banks (controlled by the Rothschilds) would then finance the wars for the conflicting countries and as a result, the bankers would profit. If you study history, you will see that, during this period of time, there was perpetual war in Europe for many years, particularly after the Rothschilds came to power!

In essence, nearly all the wars in Europe at this time (and since) have not been fought over political ideology (which was/is merely a disguise). But were fought to increase the wealth and power of the international banking conspiracy, through the Rothschild banking dynasty, and based on the principles of the Illuminati, G. Edward Griffin, in The Creature From Jekyll Island (about the history of the illegal, behind-the-scenes, establishment of the Federal Reserve), calls this purposeful pitting of one country against another, the "Rothschild Formula." He summarizes this formula as follows:

1. War is the ultimate discipline to any government. Survival from war becomes primary - everything else is secondary.
2. All that is necessary to insure government indebtedness (to the international banking conspiracy) is war - or the threat of
   war.
3. To create such a situation, it is necessary to pit two countries (or segments of one country) of equal force against one
   another - or to create them (the two opposing countries or segments of one country) if they do not already exist. ("Pit one side
   against the other, and finance both sides - so that the bankers win, no matter which side actually "wins.").
4. The ultimate obstacle to this formula is a country that is not willing to finance war through debt. When this occurs, it
   becomes necessary to encourage internal political conflict and/or infiltrate the government.
5. No one nation can be permitted to gain military dominance, because this would lead to a lack of conflict for power, and
   may lead to peace!

Peace was (and still is) unthinkable to the bankers, who profited from government war debt. This "war at all costs" formula has been played out time and time again. Not only in recent years with the continuous wars in Eastern Europe since the so- called breakup of the Communist Regime (another Big Lie, which will be covered later in this report), but also through all of American history, including: the Revolution, the War of 1812, the Civil War, World War 1, World War II, the Korean War, the war in Vietnam, "Desert Storm," and practically all other conflicts - both great and small in between and since (such as Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, etc.)! Understanding this "war at all costs" (for ultimate profit and control by the bankers) is an
important insight into history.

THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION

The plan of the Illuminati was extremely successful. But there suddenly appeared on the horizon a major stumbling block to the attainment of their ultimate goal of world domination which they never anticipated, and which threw them into a general panic: the newly established "government "of the people, by the people, and for the people". The United States of America. This was the first time in the history of the world that the people had actually been put into a position of power superior to their own government! The conspirators feared (and correctly so) that they would never be able to gain control over the new country if the people themselves had such previously unheard of power.

Politicians are easily corrupted with bribery, to do, think, and say whatever they are told. But to bribe an entire population would have been impossible - especially since it was the property of the people that the conspirators were after! Just imagine if you caught a burglar red-handed stealing your valuables. Do you think you would agree to go along with the burglar if he promised to share his loot (which he stole from you to begin with)? I don't think so! Obviously, the conspirators recognized immediately that the United States of America would have to be destroyed - one way or another - if their plan of world domination were to succeed!

Ironically enough, this new government, which they viewed as their number one enemy (even in its infancy!), might never have come to power, had it not been for their infiltration and meddling in the "natural order of things." The truth is that the Revolutionary War may not have been fought, had it not been for the interference of the Bank of England (under the control of Nathan Rothschild himself!) True, King George III had wronged the colonies in many ways. But not many know that King George 11 banned the money the colonials had been printing, at the request of the Bank of England (i.e. Nathan Rothschild), to force the colonies to use English money - which was already debt-money, based on absolutely nothing - exactly like today's "Federal Reserve Notes!"

After the American Revolution, the conspirators (specifically the Rothschilds) set to work immediately to gain control of the money of the new republic. They tried to establish a central bank (which they, of course, would control) to issue "debt money", which the people would have to borrow from them, then pay back with interest. To help them establish their central bank, they enlisted the aid of Alexander Hamilton, who had been handsomely paid to act on their behalf. They also gave him large sums of money to bribe members of Congress to vote in their favor.

Thomas Jefferson, a man of great insight and one of the finest thinkers in American history, was one of the few who understood the power of central banking. He vehemently opposed the establishment of a monopolistic central bank, and issued this warning in 1791. "If the American people ever allow the banks to control issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their forefathers conquered."

Unfortunately, the bankers won (due largely to the bribes Hamilton paid Congress to vote in the bankers' favor), and the first Bank of the United States was founded in 1791. This was the beginning of a long and bloody battle for the control of the money of the American people. Who was the power behind the Bank of the United States (Important: it was not called "the Bank of the United States of America")? Who else but the Illuminati, who were gradually developing into an international banking conspiracy, spearheaded by the Rothschilds.

By 1798 the power and influence of the Illuminati had spread far beyond their European origins. In that year, a well-traveled and well-informed scholar named John Robison, and a devoutly religious cleric, the Abbey Baruelle, both wrote books to warn the world. And to especially warn its governments, of the international power and permeation which the Illuminati already hadso cunningly, and so secretly, achieved, thanks largely to the considerable wealth and power wielded by the Rothschilds and their growing dynasty.

Even in far away America, that infiltration into positions of influence had become a whispered scandal. So much so, in fact, that in October of 1798, George Washington, in a letter to a friend, expressed his concern over the spread in the United States of the diabolical tenets of the Illuminati..."

The secrecy of the conspiracy was gradually becoming tighter. And, although their presence could always be felt behind the scenes, the history of the Illuminati/Rothschild conspiracy itself became more and more shadowy - eventually consolidating into one organization which blended almost imperceptibly into the background.

From 1798 until 1815, the insiders of the conspiracy were establishing themselves in positions of power within both American and European governments, and institutions on both sides of the battle lines that had been drawn by Napoleon. Since it was their primary purpose to destroy all governments and replace them with a one-world tyranny run by them, they chose to infiltrate and destroy both sides from within. (They maintain this policy even today, by manipulating both sides of any conflict, so that they come out the only winners.)
