Homeland Security Deputy Press Secretary arrested
Brian J. Doyle
April 4, 2006
POLICE REPORT:
Deputy Press Secretary for U.S. Department of Homeland Security Arrested on Polk County Charges
Brian J. Doyle, DOB 4/7/50, the Deputy Press Secretary for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Office of Public Affairs in Washington, D.C., was arrested this evening at his residence in Silver Springs, Maryland, on 23 Polk County charges related to the use of a computer to seduce a child and transmitting harmful materials to a minor. Doyle's arrest is the result of a joint investigation by the Polk County Sheriff s Office, working with Florida’s 10th Judicial Circuit State Attorney Jerry Hill s office, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Inspector General s Office.
The Investigation
On March 12, 2006, Doyle contacted a 14-year-old girl whose profile was posted on the Internet, and initiated a sexually explicit conversation with her. The girl was actually an undercover Polk County Sheriff s Computer Crimes detective. Doyle knew that the girl was 14 years old, and he told her who he was and that he worked for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. During future online chats, Doyle gave the undercover detective posing as a 14-year-old girl his office phone number and his government-issued cell phone number, so that they could have telephone conversations, in addition to their online chatting. Doyle used the Internet to send hard-core pornographic movie clips to the girl and used the AOL Instant Messenger chat service to have explicit sexual conversations with her. The investigation revealed that the phone numbers given to the detective were in fact Doyle s, and that the AOL account used was registered to Doyle. Doyle also sent photos of himself to the
detective, which were not sexually explicit but did serve to further positively identify him.
The Conversations
On many occasions, Doyle instructed the victim, whom he believed to be a 14-year-old girl, to perform a sexual act while thinking of him, and described explicit and perverse sexual acts he wished to have with her, in addition to sending her numerous obscene .mpg files (digital movies). He also had sexually explicit telephone conversations with a detective posing as a child on his office line and cell phone. He attempted to seduce the girl during their online chats, encouraging her to purchase a web cam so that she could send graphic images of herself to him, and promised her that he would likewise send nude photos of himself. Many of the conversations he initiated with the victim are too extraordinary and graphic for public release.
The Charges
On March 27, 2006, Tenth Judicial Circuit (FL) Judge Neil Rodenberry viewed the pornographic movies in question and found probable cause to believe the material sent over the Internet by Doyle was Harmful to Minors, as defined by Florida State Statute 847.001(6). The next day, March 28th, 23 felony charges were direct-filed by Assistant State Attorney Brad Copley and a warrant for the arrest of Brian Doyle was signed by Judge J. Dale Durrance. The charges are as follows: 7 counts Use of a Computer to Seduce a Child, and 16 counts of Transmission of Harmful Material to a Minor.
The Arrest
Brian Doyle was taken into custody at 7:45 p.m. this evening at his residence by the Montgomery County Police Department and booked into the Montgomery County Jail on the Polk County charges, where he will await extradition to Polk County. Agents with the Department of Homeland Security Inspector General s Office, the U.S. Secret Service, the Montgomery County Police, and the Polk County Sheriff’s Office also served a search warrant at his residence, during which they seized his home computer and other materials relative to this case.
We will go after child predators, no matter where they live, to protect our innocent children, says Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd. This investigation shows that the long arm of the law can reach anyone, anywhere, anytime, who tries to harm our youth. There is no question that Doyle believed that he was having these disgusting, obscene discussions, on-line and on the phone, with a young girl. His conduct is vile and inexcusable.

Homeland Security Official Arrested By MICHELLE SPITZER, Associated Press Writer
MIAMI - The deputy press secretary for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security was arrested Tuesday for using the Internet to seduce what he thought was a teenage girl, authorities said.
Brian J. Doyle, 55, was arrested at his residence in Maryland on charges of use of a computer to seduce a child and transmission of harmful material to a minor. The charges were issued out of Polk County, Fla.
Doyle, of Silver Spring, Md., had a sexually explicit conversation with what he believed was a 14-year-old girl whose profile he saw on the Internet on March 14, the Polk County Sheriff's Office said in a statement.
The girl was an undercover Polk County Sheriff's Computer Crimes detective, the sheriff's office said.
Doyle sent the girl pornographic movie clips and had sexually explicit conversations via the Internet, the statement said.
During other online conversations, Doyle revealed his name, that he worked for the Homeland Security Department and offered his office and government issued cell phone numbers, the sheriff's office said.
Doyle also sent photos of himself to the girl, but authorities said they were not sexually explicit.
On several occasions, Doyle instructed her to perform a sexual act while thinking of him and described explicit activities he wanted to have with her, investigators said.
Doyle later had a telephone conversation with an undercover deputy posing as the teenager and encouraged her to purchase a web camera to send graphic images of herself to him, the sheriff's office said.
He was booked into Maryland's Montgomery County jail where he was waiting to be extradited to Florida, the sheriff's office said.
There was no immediate response to messages left on Doyle's government-issued cell phone and his e-mail, and he could not be reached by phone at the jail for comment.
Homeland Security press secretary Russ Knocke in Washington said he could not comment on the details of the investigation. "We take these allegations very seriously, and we will cooperate fully with the ongoing investigation," Knocke said.
Doyle, who is the fourth-ranking official in the department's public affairs office, was expected to be placed on administrative leave Wednesday morning.

Subject: Bohemian Grove symbolism Part 1 of 2
Bohemian Grove symbolism
http://home.planet.nl/~reijd050/organisations/Bohemian_Grove_symbolism.htm
Although the Bohemian Grove concept is obviously inspired by ancient pagan customs it's hard to define who came up with the original ideas or for what reason. The people first involved with the Bohemian Club and the Bohemian Grove were a group of writers and artists who had a love for nature and were usually very opposed to the business ways of the robber barons. Nobody seems to have investigated it in the first place, but at this moment there's no indication that any of the more important members of the Bohemian Club had an unusual interest in pagan rituals or practices. On the other hand, Joseph D. Redding, the founder of the Cremation of Care and a president of the Bohemian Club, was very well connected to the elite Anglo-American families, so
who knows where he got his inspiration from (more about him later). There is also the prominent Bohemian Club member Ambrose Bierce who spent 3 years in England before he came to San Francisco. Bierce wrote 'The Devil's Dictionary', a book that shows us that at least some of the early members had a bit of knowledge about pagan customs. In both cases we really need to know more about these individuals before we can reach any conclusions. What I know about them has been included in their bios, which can be found in the membership list. Following are excerpts of Bierce's 'The Devil's Dictionary':
BAAL, n. An old deity formerly much worshiped under various names. As Baal he was popular with the Phoenicians; as Belus or Bel he had the honor to be served by the priest Berosus, who wrote the famous account of the Deluge; as Babel he had a tower partly erected to his glory on the Plain of Shinar. From Babel comes our English word "babble." Under whatever name worshiped, Baal is the Sun-god. As Beelzebub he is the god of flies, which are begotten of the sun's rays on the stagnant water. In Physicia Baal is still worshiped as Bolus, and as Belly he is adored and served with abundant sacrifice by the priests of Guttledom.
BACCHUS, n. A convenient deity invented by the ancients as an excuse for getting drunk.
CHRISTIAN, n. One who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor. One who follows the teachings of Christ in so far as they are not inconsistent with a life of sin.
DRUIDS, n. Priests and ministers of an ancient Celtic religion which did not disdain to employ the humble allurement of human sacrifice. Very little is now known about the Druids and their faith. Pliny says their religion, originating in Britain, spread eastward as far as Persia. Caesar says those who desired to study its mysteries went to Britain. Caesar himself went to Britain, but does not appear to have obtained any high preferment in the Druidical Church, although his talent for human sacrifice was considerable. Druids performed their religious rites in groves, and knew nothing of church mortgages and the season-ticket system of pew rents. They were, in short, heathens and -- as they were once complacently catalogued by a distinguished prelate of the Church of England -- Dissenters.
FREEMASONS, n. An order with secret rites, grotesque ceremonies and fantastic costumes, which, originating in the reign of Charles II [ruled from 1649 to 1660], among working artisans of London, has been joined successively by the dead of past centuries in unbroken retrogression until now it embraces all the generations of man on the hither side of Adam and is drumming up distinguished recruits among the pre-Creational inhabitants of Chaos and Formless Void. The order was founded at different times by Charlemagne, Julius Caesar, Cyrus, Solomon, Zoroaster, Confucious, Thothmes, and Buddha. Its emblems and symbols have been found in the Catacombs of Paris and Rome, on the stones of the Parthenon and the Chinese Great Wall, among the temples of Karnak and Palmyra and in the Egyptian Pyramids -- always by a Freemason.
Always by a Freemason, according to Bohemian Bierce.
MALTHUSIAN, adj. Pertaining to Malthus and his doctrines. Malthus believed in artificially limiting population, but found that it could not be done by talking. One of the most practical exponents of the Malthusian idea was Herod of Judea, though all the famous soldiers have been of the same way of thinking.
MAMMON, n. The god of the world's leading religion. The chief temple is in the holy city of New York.
MAN, n. An animal so lost in rapturous contemplation of what he thinks he is as to overlook what he indubitably ought to be. His chief occupation is extermination of other animals and his own species, which, however, multiplies with such insistent rapidity as to infest the whole habitable earh and Canada.
SYLPH, n. An immaterial but visible being that inhabited the air when the air was an element and before it was fatally polluted with factory smoke, sewer gas and similar products of civilization. Sylphs were allied to gnomes, nymphs and salamanders, which dwelt, respectively, in earth, water and fire, all now insalubrious. Sylphs, like fowls of the air, were male and female, to no purpose, apparently, for if they had progeny they must have nested in accessible places, none of the chicks having ever been seen.
Well, what do you know? Respect for Christians and an aversion to human sacrifice, malthusian genocide, greed, and pollution of the environment. Not bad for a Bohemian Grove participant, now is it? The Devil's Dictionary is a satirical work written over a period of about 25 years. Although you might get that impression, it has very little to do with the occult, satanism, or the devil, as some might fear at this moment. You won't find many other words in the book dealing with this type of subject. Still, the combination of Baal, Bacchus, the Druids, and Freemasons ("secret rites, grotesque ceremonies and fantastic costumes") is quite interesting in relation to the Bohemian Grove. Many people claim that Baal is worshipped during the opening ceremony and the ritual certainly shows some parallels with the rites associated with this ancient god. Bacchus has also been associated with the Cremation of Care, just as the Druids (the Celtic music, for instance). Peter Martin Philips, who has attended a Grove meeting and talked to many of its members, wrote in his 1994 Ph.D dissertation (1):
"The Cremation of Care Ceremony was produced as a play in 1920, wherein a High Priest standing before a huge pre-historic alter, is confronted by Dull Care wrapped in the chains but not dead because Bacchus, the only warrior Care fears, is truly dead... Care responds: 'Call Bacchus from the grave... long as he is dead. I sneer at Great Bohemia! Aha! Aha!'... Good Fellowship then takes the torch from the priest at the alter and burns Care in his prison, thereby purging the 'demon Care from the sacred Grove.' This ceremony has been rewritten on several occasions but the theme is still the same." [The date given, 1920, seems to be a typo as the ceremony was first created in 1893. He also lists two separate dates for the addition of the owl shrine: 1920 & 1929]
The Roman Bacchus is the same as the more well known Greek Dionysus, the god of wine, sexual and ecstatic freedom, fertility, and celebration. The purpose of their rites was quite similar to the Bohemian Grove concept, i.e. the participants were to leave behind any worries about their daily lives. Although I have not been able to find the exact origin or meaning of Dull Care (he's
unhappy because of the death of his brother Don't Care), the poem above, written by a poet from the Roman Empire and the earliest reference I could find, shows it has a strong connection to wine also, just as Bacchus and Dionysus.
In any case, Dull Care is "a mocking spirit" that needs to be banished from the Grove. This is an ancient tradition going back to the Sumerians. The Sumerians used the word 'barra' (begone) to banish unwelcome spirits from the land. These traditions were spread to Babylon, Greece, and Rome. After the Middle-Ages poets and play writers occasionally picked up on it and incorporated it in some of the works they wrote. The term was used quite frequently since at least the late 17th century in Britain as the poems in the left column show. The first reference since Horace that I was able to find was the 1687 play 'Begone, Dull Care' of [John] Playford: Musical Companion, located in England. The emigrating poets and writers took the term to the United States and many of them ended up in San Francisco.
It could well be that the term Dull Care was already in use at the time of the Francis Bacon group in the late 1500s and early 1600s, which consisted of Sir William and Robert Cecil, John Dee, his student Edward de Vere, Edmund Spenser, Bacon himself, Elizabeth I, James I, and several others. Why am I interested in them? These people were (largely) responsible for the creation of Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, and Enochian Magic. The de Vere family was involved in the practice of Royal Witchcraft (2) and his family considered themselves members of the Archdruid-Dragon race. Bacchanalian practices were well known within this group (more about that later). The Bohemian Club's primary motto, "Weaving Spiders, Come Not Here," also originated from them. It was taken from the second scene of Act 2 from 'A Midsummer Night's Dream', written by Shakespeare, who got at least some of his inspiration from Edward de Vere (who's lateral descendant we coincidentally quoted throughout this article), although a case can be made that de Vere wrote pretty much all of the stuff that has been attributed to him (3). The theme of Dull Care, however, was not part of Shakespeare's original MacBeth, but in the 1847 version of Giuseppe Verdi a reference to Dull Care was made by Lady MacBeth (which you can find in the column on the left). And to get back to the Bacon group, they have been responsible for the British colonization of the United States, whom Bacon thought was 'The New Atlantis' (4), while especially the Cecils and many of their blood relatives played a major role in creating the British and later Anglo-American empire. As you'll see a bit further in the article, the elite Anglo-American families could well have had a hand in the creation of the Cremation of Care ceremony.
Bohemian Bierce also described the Druids in his dictionary, which have an interesting connection to groves. The word 'grove' usually means 'a small wooded area', but it can also refer to a 'pagan way grove' or a 'pagan grove', which is a learning center for different pagan religions. Probably not by accident, the word 'grove', as a learning center, is most often used by pagans involved with the Druidic traditions. Examples are the 'Celtic grove' and the 'Druid grove'. Robin Wood, a magic-enthousiast explains it a bit further (5):
"Pagan Grove: An outer circle, normally set up for teaching purposes, and led by a Wiccan High Priestess and High Priest. This is where folks start in many traditions (including mine) and learn what the Craft is about, and whether it is the right Path for them. This is the place you study for a year and a day before becoming an Initiate."
"Initiates Circle: A Circle for Initiates only. These may vary in form from non-initiates circles (often called Pagan Groves) or not. In my own tradition, magic is practiced only in the Initiates Circle, because a number of folk in our Grove cannot yet ground and center reliably, and would get terrific headaches from energy use."
Under normal circumstances one might not contemplate the alternative meaning of the word 'grove', especially not when newspapers referred to a 'redwood grove' ever since the day the Bohemians bought their initial 160 acres in 1899. Still, the decision to hire a piece of land in the redwood grove was made in the early 1890s under the Bohemian Club presidency of Joseph D. Redding. At the same time he created the original Cremation of Care ceremony and acted as its High Priest. Redding had a completely different background than the average Bohemian Club artist. His father was a land agent for the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, which was owned by the elite Anglo-American Pilgrims Society families, Harriman (chair of Southern and Union Pacific was Edward Henry Harriman, who was financed by Jacob Schiff) & Harkness (major shareholders of Rockefeller's Standard Oil; intermarried with the Stillmans, who also intermarried with the Rockefellers; partners of J.P. Morgan; co-founders of the Commonwealth Fund and the Pilgrim Trust). Redding went to Harvard Law School and became a wealthy lawyer for Southern Pacific. Southern Pacific is a great example of the reported schism that happened within the Bohemian Club between the original middle class artists and the wealthy businessmen. In May 1898 Southern Pacific created Sunset Magazine, which dealt with the outdoors, artistic writings, and things about everyday life. In 1911 Charles K. Field, a member of the Bohemian Club, became its editor. Bohemian Club writers like Ina Coolbrith, Jack London, Bret Harte, and John Muir contributed to the magazine, but as time progressed all these writers became increasingly critical of the business ways of the robber barons. Because of this development Southern Pacific had to do away with the magazine in 1914. And by this time the Cremation of Care founder was living in New York, surrounded by members of the Pilgrims Society.
The term 'Bohemian', by the way, has very little to do with the East-European region of Bohemia. The original Bohemians were a group of pennyless rebellious young artists living in 19th century France. Among them were Victor Hugo (wrote 'Hunchback of the Notre Dame' and is today an inspiration for the elite European Institute), Arthur Rimbaud, Alfred De Musset, and Paul Verlaine. Those who referred to these people as 'Bohemians' meant that they thought of them as Gypsies (low life). The first accusation we know of was made in 1834 by Felix Pyat in a Parisian publication called 'Nouveau Tableau de Paris au XIX Siecle'. It read: "alien and bizarre... outside the law, beyond the reaches of society... they are the Bohemians of today." The Frenchman Henry Murger was the first to popularize the term in his 1849 novel 'Scenes de la Boheme', which was turned into a play 2 years later. In this book the main character, together with a few newly found friends, is involved in creating a small unofficial Bohemian club at a local Parisian tavern. Murger's description of a Bohemian is someone who purely lives of the art he creates. Bohemia, according to him, was located in Paris. So, I guess it's pretty obvious to see where the San Francisco artists got their inspiration from when they established the Bohemian Club in 1872. And they might have been totally different persons then those who inspired the creation of the Cremation of Care.
The Owl
The Bohemians adopted the owl as their mascot right from the beginning, but it is doubtful that they attached any serious mystical values to it at that moment. Today, when the average person sees pictures or videos of the Cremation of Care ritual they will usually get away with an entirely different impression. Who would ever have imagined that the president of the United States, together with a large chunk of America's elite, attends a yearly gathering where an ancient Babylonian (mock) human sacrifice is carried out in front of huge stone owl? The original Bohemians were quite eccentric (and the absolute opposite of today's Grovers), but this is just too bizarre. So whatever the owl meant for the early Bohemian Clubbers, it is quite reasonable to philosophize a bit about what the owl is supposed to represent these days. After all, the Cremation of Care was devised by a not-so-average Bohemian and the giant stone owl was only put into place in the 1920s when the Grove already was an elite gathering for at least 10 to 15 years. In fact, the nationwide coverage of the Cremation of Care ceremony around the turn of the century seemed to have drawn in lots of important people.
Traditionally, at least in conspiracy land, the owl in the Grove is associated with Moloch, although more and more people start to ask questions about that assumption. The reason for that is if you compare the above images with the descriptions and depictions of Moloch (below) you'll find that there's quite a difference. I have never seen a non-Bohemian Grove related article in which Moloch is associated with an owl. That includes the bible.
But even though I don't interpret the Bohemian owl as Moloch/Baal, the Cremation of Care is very similar to the ancient rites associated with this sun god. In the left column you can find a detailed transcript of the rites of Melqart, the Tyrian version of Baal and Molech, and how these spread to the Druids. More information about similar rites can be found further down in this article.
Anyone who does a bit of research in European and Middle-Eastern mythology will see that the owl is always associated with a female deity. In all the civilizations between Sumer and Rome (and even the Celts) you have a few recurring gods with often the same symbols associated with them. I tend to throw the important gods and goddesses together and define only two simple classes, the first one being the male sun gods, followed by a group of female mother-moon goddesses. The simple reason is that mythology is a mess. Stories are completely incoherent and often you can make anything of it that you want. Each new civilization copied the gods from the previous one and it is obvious that many mistakes (or deliberate changes) were made during this process. This is the reason that modern mythology, to a large extent, is nothing more than making "best guesses" in defining which deity is associated with which earlier deity. That also seems to go for the initiates of secret societies.
The sun gods, who normally have one or more sons, are usually depicted as (or with) bulls, goats, fire, and sunlight. Examples are the Egyptian Amun-Ra, the Carthaginian Baal-Hammon, the Babylonian Marduk, the Canaanite Baal and Molech, the Tyrian El and Melqart, the Akkadian Adad, and the Greek Zeus. Then there are mother and moon goddesses. The first one is usually associated with the dove or a lion (and is the partner and mother of different sun gods). The Canaanite Astoreth, the Tyrian Astarte, the Phrygian and Roman Cybele, the Babylonian Semiramis, and the Akkadian Ishtar are examples. These are generally identified as the exact same goddesses. Goddesses associated with the moon, who are always closely related to the mother goddesses, are often depicted as an owl. The Roman Minerva, the Greek Athena, and the Tyrian Anath are examples of this. Going back further is hard, but we have a few leads.
There is a well known Sumerian clay tablet with a female deity depicted on it. She is standing on two lions and is flanked by two owls [1]. Generally, this tablet is said to depict Lilith, a demoness, but the connections are weak and many scholars doubt this is the correct interpretation. Lilith has vaguely been associated with the "screech-owl", but that doesn't automatically mean the tablet depicts this semi-goddess. In my opinion the goddess Inanna would be a much better choice, because 1) It is generally accepted that Innana became Ishtar, Semiramis, Cybele, and Astarte, which are all mother goddesses with the dove and lion as main attributes. This explains the 'mystery' of the bird feet, the wings, and the two lions she is standing on. 2) Deities with similar objects in their hands as the ones depicted on the Sumerian clay tablet have been associated with Ishtar, the Akkadian version of the Sumerian Inanna.
Even so, the question still remains who the owls on the clay tablet are supposed to represent, because the later civilizations seem to have reserved the owl for a separate deity. Since Inanna's parents were the moon god Nanna and the moon goddess Ningal, I guess I agree with those people that claim Inanna was also associated with the owl. But in the end we really can't tell what the owl in the grove is supposed to represent. Nicholas de Vere, a lateral inheritor of the Dragon title from the earlier mentioned extinct Earl of Oxford branch and a former head of the British Dragon Court (6), gives us another possibility of what the owl might mean to certain elite groups:
"The Dragons - and in the King James Version of the Holy Bible - the Daughters of the Owl (Lilith), are therefore - according to Isaiah - the true children of God; "A Chosen Generation, a Royal Priesthood, an Holy Nation, a Peculiar People..."
"Astaroth is Ishtar, who was a draconian relation of Lilith the dragon queen, the ancestral grandmother of the Tuadha de Danaan..." (7)
"The Garter was the 'witches belt', the Devil's badge and a dynastic emblem of the fairy race that descended from Lilith and Cain, who were the enemies of the Church and Mankind, according to the church, if not according to the fairies themselves." (8)
Maybe you noticed that I never mentioned the Egyptian mother goddess Isis. The reason for that is the Egyptian pantheon often uses completely different attributes for the same deities than other parts of the ancient Middle-East. Although the owl could well represent Isis, we don't need to worry about her, because she is certainly present at the Grove. Peter Martin Phillips again:
"Bohemians even own a 2,500 year old mummy donated to the Club by an Egyptologist, Jeremiah Lynch in 1914. The mummy, known as Lady Isis, rests in a glass case near the entrance to the Bohemian theater."
The goddess Diana is also present at the Grove. A picture of her statue, which is located near the 'Diana Circle', has been among a few dozen photos 'Kyle' has managed to snap in 2004 and 2005 as an employee at the Bohemian Grove (9).
I also didn't mention the Celtic Arianrhod and the wife of her son, Bloudeuedd. Both had the owl as a main attribute. Arianrhod is a mother goddess and moon goddess at the same time. She is linked to Aphrodite and Isis, but also to Astarte (dove and lion; same as Ishtar and Inanna) and Diana.
I told you so, mythology is a mess.
Part 2 will conclude this article.

The following is a letter I wrote in response to the Op Ed written by Harold Meyerson
Will Your Job Survive?
http://media.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/03/21/AR2006032101133.html
The American people were duped and we have been sold out.

Mr. Meyerson,
Once they transformed foreign policy to be the selling off of our economy through 'free trade' agreements that included services - our economy was doomed. And they knew precisely what they were doing. It was the plan to destroy our economy - to weaken our country for the planned 'transformation' to communism under a global system of 'governance' under the United Nations.
The trade agreements were written to put our domestic producers at a disadvantage. Case in point - the tariff on cars from China. China has a 2.5% tariff to import to the U.S. U.S. automakers have a 25% tariff to import to China. And - no, that wasn't just a decimal point error in the agreement because all the trade agreements were written with the same kinds of disadvantage.
The idea that Alan Blinder is suggesting has been in the works in our schools even before George Schultz signed the education agreements with the Soviet Union during the Reagan administration. All education legislation since that time has been incremental steps towards the goal of harmonizing our education system with the Soviets - implementing a Soviet system of poly-technical education and control here. Clinton's administration really moved along the agenda.

Subject: Dubai, infrastructure and Executive Orders
From: Vicky Davis
Everybody was wondering how it happened that the U.S. came to privatize our ports. One of my very excellent Internet Researcher friends sent me the answer -
So now we also know why the corporate Water Barons are sniffing around our water resources trying to buy them up just like they did to the people in Bolivia. See the links below the E.O.
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode31/usc_sec_31_00000501----000-notes.html (Do a page search on 12803 - it's easier than scrolling)
Executive Order 12803
April 30, 1992
George Herbert Walker Bushwhacker
Ex. Ord. No. 12803. Infrastructure Privatization
Ex. Ord. No. 12803, Apr. 30, 1992, 57 F.R. 19063, provided:
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and in order to ensure that the United States achieves the most beneficial economic use of its resources, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Definitions. For purposes of this order:
(a) ³Privatization² means the disposition or transfer of an infrastructure asset, such as by sale or by long-term lease, from a State or local government to a private party.
(b) ³Infrastructure asset² means any asset financed in whole or in part by the Federal Government and needed for the functioning of the economy. Examples of such assets include, but are not limited to: roads, tunnels, bridges, electricity supply facilities, mass transit, rail transportation, airports, ports, waterways, water supply facilities, recycling and wastewater treatment facilities, solid waste disposal facilities, housing, schools, prisons, and hospitals.
(c) ³Originally authorized purposes² means the general objectives of the original grant program; however, the term is not intended to include every condition required for a grantee to have obtained the original grant.
(d) ³Transfer price² means: (i) the amount paid or to be paid by a private party for an infrastructure asset, if the asset is transferred as a result of competitive bidding; or (ii) the appraised value of an infrastructure asset, as determined by the head of the executive department or agency and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, if the asset is not transferred as a result of competitive bidding.
(e) ³State and local governments² means the government of any State of the United States, the District of Columbia, any commonwealth, territory, or possession of the United States, and any county, municipality, city, town, township, local public authority, school district, special district, intrastate district, regional or interstate governmental entity, council of governments, and any agency or instrumentality of a local government, and any federally recognized Indian Tribe.
Sec. 2. Fundamental Principles. Executive departments and agencies shall be guided by the following objectives and principles: (a) Adequate and well-maintained infrastructure is critical to economic growth. Consistent with the principles of federalism enumerated in Executive Order No. 12612 [formerly set out under section 601 of Title 5, Government Organization and Employees], and in order to allow the private sector to provide for infrastructure modernization and expansion, State and local governments should have greater freedom to privatize infrastructure assets.
(b) Private enterprise and competitively driven improvements are the foundation of our Nation¹s economy and economic growth. Federal financing of infrastructure assets should not act as a barrier to the achievement of economic efficiencies through additional private market financing or competitive practices, or both.
(c) State and local governments are in the best position to assess and respond to local needs. State and local governments should, subject to assuring continued compliance with Federal requirements that public use be on reasonable and nondiscriminatory terms, have maximum possible freedom to make decisions concerning the maintenance and disposition of their federally financed infrastructure assets.
(d) User fees are generally more efficient than general taxes as a means to support infrastructure assets. Privatization transactions should be structured so as not to result in unreasonable increases in charges to users.
Sec. 3. Privatization Initiative. To the extent permitted by law, the head of each executive department and agency shall undertake the following actions:
(a) Review those procedures affecting the management and disposition of federally financed infrastructure assets owned by State and local governments and modify those procedures to encourage appropriate privatization of such assets consistent with this order;
(b) Assist State and local governments in their efforts to advance the objectives of this order; and
(c) Approve State and local governments¹ requests to privatize infrastructure assets, consistent with the criteria in section 4 of this order and, where necessary, grant exceptions to the disposition requirements of the ³Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Cooperative Agreements to State and Local Governments² common rule, or other relevant rules or regulations, for infrastructure assets; provided that the transfer price shall be distributed, as paid, in the following manner: (i) State and local governments shall first recoup in full the unadjusted dollar amount of their portion of total project costs (including any transaction and fix-up costs they incur) associated with the infrastructure asset involved; (ii) if proceeds remain, then the Federal Government shall recoup in full the amount of Federal grant awards associated with the infrastructure asset, less the applicable share of accumulated depreciation on such asset (calculated using the Internal Revenue Service accelerated depreciation schedule for the categories of assets in question); and (iii) finally, the State and local governments shall keep any remaining proceeds.
Sec. 4. Criteria. To the extent permitted by law, the head of an executive department or agency shall approve a request in accordance with section 3(c) of this order only if the grantee: (a) Agrees to use the proceeds described in section 3(c)(iii) of this order only for investment in additional infrastructure assets (after public notice of the proposed investment), or for debt or tax reduction; and
(b) Demonstrates that a market mechanism, legally enforceable agreement, or regulatory mechanism will ensure that: (i) the infrastructure asset or assets will continue to be used for their originally authorized purposes, as long as needed for those purposes, even if the purchaser becomes insolvent or is otherwise hindered from fulfilling the originally authorized purposes; and (ii) user charges will be consistent with any current Federal conditions that protect users and the public by limiting the charges.
Sec. 5. Government-wide Coordination and Review. In implementing Executive Order Nos. 12291 and 12498 [formerly set out under section 601 of Title 5, Government Organization and Employees] and OMB Circular No. A19, the Office of Management and Budget, to the extent permitted by law and consistent with the provisions of those authorities, shall take action to ensure that the policies of the executive department and agencies are consistent with the principles, criteria, and requirements of this order. The Office of Management and Budget shall review the results of implementing this order and report thereon to the President 1 year after the date of this order.
Sec. 6. Preservation of Existing Authority. Nothing in this order is in any way intended to limit any existing authority of the heads of executive departments and agencies to approve privatization proposals that are otherwise consistent with law.
Sec. 7. Judicial Review. This order is intended only to improve the internal management of the executive branch, and is not intended to create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable by a party against the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, its officers or employees, or any other person.
George Bush.

Subject: Project for the Exposure of Hidden Institutions (PEHI) Updates 3
March 23, 2006
Since I'm not expecting too many updates before the next one or two articles are done, I thought I'll present the core of the issue right at the top of page one. Following is my 'standard model' for the globalization process. If someone has additional names or a membership list of of any of these groups (the three at the top that have absorbed the leadership of all the organizations below it), let me know.
March 5-7, 2006
a.. Several biographies in the Pilgrims Society membership list have been expanded. Among them are the very important Clarence Dillon and his son C. Douglas Dillon. Clarence Dillon, the founder of Dillon Read & Co., was the one who set up the German Steel Trust with the Thyssens in the same year his friends, the Harrimans (Pilgrims Society) and Bushes (Pilgrims Society; Bohemian Grove camp Mandalay and Hillbillies), set up the Union Banking Corporation with the same German family. Thyssen and Hjalmar Schacht, of course, were the one's who brought Hitler's party to power. Dillon's partners in this venture were James Forrestal, brigadier-general William Draper Jr. (his son was a member of the Bohemian Grove Hillbillies camp), and Nicholas Brady (SMOM; Bohemian Grove camp Mandalay).
Dillon's son held many very important position in the Rockefeller and overall Anglo-American empire. He married to European royalty.
Thyssen-Bornemisza, by the way, was still represented in the 1001 Club in the 1980s and has intermarried with the Habsburg family. The Thyssen arms empire has been implicated in numerous illegal arms deals over the past few decades. Look for the biography of Franz Joseph Strauss in the 1001 Club and search for 'thyssen' in the introduction article to get some details.
b.. As you might have already noticed, I did some updating in the Bohemian Grove Symbolism article, adding, for instance, information about J.P. Morgan's high interest in both astrology and crystals. Information on magic and illusions has also been updated a bit.
c.. Wrote a quick article on Daniel Hopsicker's revelations regarding 9/11, which can be found here. Since I only left my article on-line that debunks the no-757-theory, I thought I should also give my opinion on at least one of the more constructive areas of 9/11 research. Update: On that same no-757 page you can now also find a short article about John Maynard, a former DIA and Military Intelligence official, who briefly explains how disinformation works. There isn't that many inside information available on this subject as far as I know, so I recommend you take a look at it.
Decimation of Romanian Wildlife aided by 1001 Club environmentalist
Most vocal critic dies after months of threats spelling doom for Romania's brown bear
February 28, 2006
In the 1001 Club article it was briefly mentioned that King Juan Carlos was accused of participating in rather extreme hunting trips down in Romania. Hundreds of boars were (and are) killed in one session, together with at least a few dozen bears. Young and pregnant animals were also shot by Carlos and his entourage. The group included local politicians and CEOs of international corporations. [link] [link]
But what's really ironic is that Juan Carlos is not only the founder and honorary president of WWF Spain (the same WWF that has been criticizing the hunts), he's also a patron of the International Council for Game and Wildlife Conservation (CIC) and a honorary member of the Club of Rome, the latter being especially worried about society's strain on the earth's natural resources.
To make matters even worse, while Carlos was shooting all that wildlife, the WWF was busy with a project to integrate human and animal populations in the area. But, of course, Carlos is not just a regular member of the WWF; he's part of the inner circle, the 1001 Club, apparently supervised by British Intelligence and the Privy Council crowd. Carlos is also a member of the Knights of Malta and doesn't mind appointing Opus Dei members (Adolfo Suarez) to the most important positions in his country.
A person named Ion Tiriac is arranging these hunting massacres in the Carpathian mountains for western elites. According to László Szeley-Szabó, founder and chair of the environmental AVES Trust, bear populations dropped forty to sixty percent in just four years and it is entirely possible that they become largely extinct in the next 5 years. According to László, the Romanian government has artificially inflated the number of bears still alive, and also spread exaggerated stories about bears being a threat to the local communities. On June 4, 2004, the Sunday Herald quoted László as saying:
"Our telephones are being tapped, our mail is steamed opened, our website has been broken into, anonymous callers regularly threaten our activists' lives and I am being frequently summoned to the police 'for questioning.'"
This happened after László "... submitted a report to Nastase [Romania’s Socialist prime minister] challenging the official bear population figure of 6300, proving with well-supported evidence that the total was now down to a mere 2500." [link]
I recently got an email from someone who lived in Romania who tells us what happened next and provides some more detail. He also gives us a few details about the elite of this ex-communist country, which is always appreciated by this site. Here are a few extracts from the email:
The person who draw attention on the Spain's King hunting massacre in Romania is now dead ("of natural ilness"?). but his family is prosecuted - mainly by Ion Tiriac, a top Ro bilionaire for libel.
JR: You are talking about AVES Foundation founder Szeley-Szabo Laszlo [link]? Is this the person that embarrassed Juan Carlos and his gang? If you have any details surrounding his death (controversies) and such, I'd love it if you let me know.
This is the guy; pissed a lot of top politicians and business peoples with his exposure of bears hunting. Then it appeared in a TV show and commented along the hunting parties Tiriac organizes at its Balc domain (Romania; got it for a ridiculous low amount): 185 boars at one of these (lately there has been another one, 200+ boars killed). Tiriac promptly sued (he is quick at). Laszlo was making a life from organizing trips in the Danube Delta (amongst others) and came back in august 2004 from one trip only to go to hospital and die 6 weeks later - he was only 55 years old! But the process continues against wife and children - quirk of the Ro laws (http://www.evz.ro/article.php?artid=250456). No speculations in the press about the nature of its death, just babble in the environment milieus.
JR: Any idea how Ion Tiriac gets along with people like Juan Carlos, the Habsburgs, Rothschilds, Rockefellers?
Tiriac is the typical middleman - arranging for local politicians to do business with top westerners. In exchange, he is getting a lot of advantages (ex: get land at ridiculous low prices) and protection (against hunting massacres - if law would have been applied, hunters should be in jail now; his son was caught in a cocaine scandal - 9 kg for sale to VIPs - and cleared; various materials disappeared from that file, witnesses changed deposition, etc). He is a facade for unknown interests (ex: the Tiriac Bank that was sold awhile ago); still has Tiriac Air - for business trips only. The man is not into politics in any way, but into money, does not care about law in Ro - but is not into prostitution and drugs (that was a mistake made by the son). There are rumors of being helped by commie secret services when refugiated in West at the time, and that it kept ties. Tiriac is also one of the business developers in the Delta.
I would not see any Ro politician associated directly with a Habsburg, that would destroy him; but any politician of Hungarian origin, yes, and any business person - no matter ethnicity - also could be in touch anytime. But there were no speculations about Tiriac. Generally, Ro politicians and business peoples would do anything that would propulsate them into Western networks (masonry and hunting being most visible) - virtually every politician of national level is a freemason.
I would think Ro politicians are too small game to deal directly with Rockefellers; but their men are in the game - "Romania Mare" (nationalist party, ties with Le Pen) mills such rumors about CFR peoples attending government meetings
He also mentioned that the Ion Cioaba, the former self-proclaimed king of the Gypsies, was a member of the Knights of Malta. Not a surprise, because probably all the major catholic noble and royal houses in Europe are. Among them are Prince Hans Adam II of Liechtenstein, Otto von Habsburg (Bavaria; family intermarried with Thyssen-Bornemisza), King Juan Carlos, and at least several members of royal house of Belgium. It's interesting to note that many Knights of Malta can be found in the top tiers of the international intelligence world.
It has also been mentioned that Cioaba was briefly part of an Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite lodge. If anyone can read Romanian and has more details, let me know.
... I am looking also for Romanian members of SMOM; but I know of only one (Ion Cioaba, auto-proclaimed "King" of the Gypsies)
... I was in Romania when the TV ran that news, saw it with my own eyes: it showed a very fat man being decorated with some sort of belt that was barely fitting him. Everybody knows it over there. I would guess our guy was really proud of and did not care of typical discretion - I checked today for references and found that this particular footage was also run by EuroNews on Oct 26, 1994; hopefully that footage is still around; but the reference is apparently taken from a book written by Grigorian Bivolaru (the MISA guru now refugee in Sweden): http://www.geocities.com/peter_7_pan/mason.htm . The text is buried in the usual anti-masonic blurb and it is in Romanian. Another reference, left on a masonic forum, states that Cioaba was for a short time a member of some Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite lodge, but after a short time was "burned between columns": http://www.hanuancutei.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3020&st=60

Subject: Bohemian Grove symbolism Part 2 of 2
The Mitre of the Bohemian Grove priest
Looking at the Bohemian Grove high priests [7-8-9] I noticed that they bear an uncanny similarity with a person known in the Netherlands as "Sinterklaas" [5], less commonly known as St. Nicholas of Myra, a bishop that lived in the 3rd and 4th century AD and was a member of the Council of Nicaea in 325. The Americans changed his appearance to the more fluffy looking Santa Claus early in the 20th century. Not that I think the Bohemian Grove priest is Santa Claus, it's just that the Catholic church has received all their inspiration from the earlier pagan religions. The mitre, that also seems to reside on the heads of the Bohemian Grove priests, is one of the best examples of this. It represents the open mouth of the ancient half-man half-fish god that brought humankind civilization. It was worshipped under different names: Enki, Ea, Dagon, and Oannes. Apsu (supposedly the origin of the Dragon race) and Atargis are other half-man half-fish gods which are even older than the sun gods. In the pictures above you can clearly see how the process evolved.
So ironically, the Pope, St. Nicholas, the Bohemian Grove high priests, and even Santa Claus all have the same origin: The Sumerian-Babylonian high priests. This is also where their rods and capes have originated from (10).
What are those? Fishies? Brings back memories of that horror movie 'Dagon', originally written by Lovecraft.
The problem with the Dionysiacs and Bacchanalians
The worship of Dionysus is generally considered to have started in Phrygia in Asia Minor between 1200 and 1000 B.C. after which it spread to Greece, Egypt, and as far as India. The cult became known for its extensive use of trance-inducing music, sex orgies, wine consumption, and the large amount of violent sacrifices, which, at least in the earlier stages, included humans. As a mystery cult it had public and secret rites. One of the rites included the Maenads, a group of insane woman involved in bizarre blood rituals. This included the ripping apart of human beings and eating their flesh. During this time they were possessed by Bacchus who provided them with superhuman strength (11). Nicholas de Vere, in his book 'The Origin of The Dragon Lords of the Rings', adds:
"The Dionysic Rites were cannibalistic and vampiric and echo the era of the cannibalism and vampirism of the (Titanic) era of the sons of the Nephilim."
Theater of Dionysus After the cult ended up in Athens in the 5th century B.C. they build a theater in honor of Dionysus on the southside of the Acropolis. It was later remodeled in stone. In the Dionysic theaters of Greece and Rome many plays were held, usually centered around their respective mythologies. The beginning of every festival was always reserved for sacrifices. Most scholars are of the opinion that in those days the sacrifices didn't include humans anymore, at least not publicly, but the amount of animals killed was quite substantial.
For instance, in 333 B.C. there was a single event in which 240 bulls were sacrificed to Dionysus (12). That must have been quite a blood bath. Much later, in 186 B.C., after accusations of human sacrifice, violent sex orgies, and the plotting of assassinations and other political conspiracies, the Roman Empire banned the 'Bacchanalias' and executed a few thousand of its members. It is likely that some of these accusations were exaggerated, although most of these claims were fairly well documented in earlier times.
According to Manly P. Hall (13), the cult was composed of a secretive inner core of highly skilled architects who based their public buildings on sacred geometry and astrology (they often mirrored their structures with a particular constellation). Among the initiates were those that built the Tyrian Temple of Melqart, who in turn were employed by King Solomon to build the first Jewish temple at Mount Moriah in 969 B.C. Solomon has always been considered an important magician to the members of various secret societies and God is said to have given him control over the Jinn (elemental beings that can be conjured up). These helped him to build his temple and cities alongside his human employees.
In 206 B.C. another very prominent deity was imported into Rome from Phrygia: The mother-goddess Cybele, which used to be worshipped right next to Dionysus. Her orgiastic rites were very similar and the high priests were castrated, told to live as women, performed blood sacrifices (animal only as far as I have seen), bathed in blood, and cut themselves open during certain ceremonies (14).
Although the history of the secret societies is extremely complex, it isn't very hard to link the Dionysic architects and Solomon's temple to the Rosicrucian Knights Templar and their Rosslyn Chapel. The Templars had been digging underneath Mount Moriah in the early 12th century. After they fled to Scotland in 1307, their descendents built a new version of Solomon's Temple in the 15th century. Not long after the Templars arrived, the Order of the Garter and the Dragon Court were (re)established in Britain, hints of Rosicrucian initiations started to surface, and Enochian Magic was born, followed by the birth of Scottish Rite Freemasonry (for the more common man). Even the Dragon Court, quoting the Catholic dictionary, accepts that the Templars fled to Scotland and gave rise to Freemasonry there (15). The worship of Bacchus also went along within some of the secret societies. One of the most notorious pleasure-seeking Bacchanalians of British history was Sir Francis Dashwood of the Hellfire Club (16), who, in the mid-1700s, had reserved a central role for Bacchus/Dionysus in his own rituals. The "do what you will" quote, inscribed above the main entrance of the Medmenham Abbey where many of his rites were performed, served as an inspiration for Aleister Crowley. Dashwood visited many European royal courts in his younger years, ultimately becoming Chancellor of the Exchequer and a member of the Privy Council (1761). Franklin, an occasional visitor of the Hellfire Club, eventually became a Founding Father of the New Atlantis, better known as the United States of America.
In Britain, it seems that Druid and Templar practices merged, followed in a later stage by Jewish bankers (probably kabbalists/hermeticists) who, just like the Rosicrucian Bacon and other hermeticists, were also inspired by Solomon and his temple. This last group, headed by the Rothschild family, decided in the 19th century that it was time for the Jewish people to return to Palestine and allied themselves with the British Empire (in Quigley's Round Table, headed by Robert Cecil, the 3rd Marquess of Salisbury) (17). This merging of the different elements, which is also what probably happened at the Bohemian Grove, is supported by Nicholas de Vere in 'The Origin of The Dragon Lords of the Rings':
"The rituals of witchcraft were varied and contained syntheses of Catharist and Templar Dualism, Druidism and Bacchanalian practices."
Benjamin Disraeli, the first Jewish Prime Minister of England and a close friend to both the Rothschilds and the Cecils, used to refer to Queen Victoria as "the Faery", which is usually thought of as nothing significant. However, looking at Disraeli, a Knight of the Garter, a friend to the founders of the Round Table, and in the know of the influence of secret societies, it is probably a reference to Edmund Spencer's story "The Faery Queen" (as he called Queen Elizabeth I) which also featured a "Red Cross Knight" (Rosicrucian). Spenser was part of the Francis Bacon group and a close friend to John Dee, who is the founder of Enochian Magic and credited with writing 'The Rosicrucian Secrets'. Spenser dedicated several works to Dee's student, Edward de Vere, who he is supposed to have visited on a regular basis (de Vere married Lady Anne Cecil and early on lived in the household of Sir William Cecil). Nicholas de Vere, in 'From Transylvania to Tunbridge Wells', adds:
"Castle Matres or Matrix as it is now known was said to have been named after the Matres or triple goddess. The castle rests on the banks of the river Deal in County Limerick and the library which was housed there is said to have contained singular works on Magic and Alchemy, works that Dee didn't want, under any circumstances, falling into the Queen's hands because, as Laurence Gardner has pointed out, Dr. John Dee, Edward de Vere, Francis Bacon, Edmund Spenser and William Shakespeare et al were well aware that Elizabeth's house were badly bred usurpers and despite the descent from Margaret of Anjou, the blood wasn't pure."
"The dragon or fairy gene was very rare and true archdruidic, royal dragon families were rarer still... Ubaid Sumerian-Scythian in origin. These Dragon Kings and Fairy Queens weren't extensive in number, didn't breed outside their caste and weren't nationalists or racists. How the Germans ever thought they were all descended from them is beyond understanding."
And in 'The Origin of The Dragon Lords of the Rings':
"Given that the Fairies, according to Murray, were still around in Shakespeares time (Edward de Vere? -sic), it seems to me that at least one individual who is said to have been a member of the literary syndicate that produced A Midsummer Night's Dream ["Weaving spiders, come not here"], diminuted the fairies, his own race, it could be argued, in order to alleviate the persecution that was raging against them..."
It's hard to tell how many of these practices are still going on today. If we stick to the non-criminal aspects, we have some stories about Tony Blair, who gets his advice from 'the light' (18), and his eccentric New Age wife, who likes to drag her husband into Aztec rebirth rituals (19) and other standard paranormal practices (20). Then there are some reports about astrologers helping members of the royal house, which aren't really worth repeating here (gossips). Keep in mind that these are/were the most prominent persons in Britain of the past 10 years. The dynastic blue blood families seldom reach the news in the first place.
Kunzite crystal sold to J.P. Morgan in 1903. J.P. Morgan is probably the best example of a powerful person connected to these old families who is known to have had a lot of interest in astrology. He practiced astrology himself, but for important financial decisions Morgan always relied on the advice of the famous astrologer Evangeline Adams, said to be a granddaughter and great-granddaughter of the two Adams' presidents. Evangeline Adams had her office in Carnegie Hall and advised thousands of people, from rich to poor. The British royals were among her clients and in her earlier days she had attempted to write a book with Aleister Crowley.
Morgan was also highly interested in crystals. George Frederick Kunz was a well-known gemstones collecter who travelled all over
the world. One of his most important clients was J.P. Morgan, after whom he named Morganite. He also dedicated his 1915 book, 'The Magic of Jewels and Charms,' to Morgan, which covers the whole history of the usage of these stones in different cultures. Morgan once said: "Millionaires don't use astrology, billionaires do," and dr. Fred Bell has stated that he believes these wealthy families use the power of crystals to attract a lot of wealth. Whether that's true or not, I don't know. Guess it depends on how well dr. Bell's toys work.
Furthermore, it is known that Nancy Reagan consulted astrologers and psychics on a regular basis, especially after Reagan's assasination attempt. In 1996, it was widely reported that Hillary Clinton had been contacting the spirits of Eleanor Roosevelt and Mahatma Ghandi. Undoubtedly, there are many more examples to be found, which
at the very least indicate that religion and spirituality play a larger role in the top tiers of society than is usually thought. However, as expected from politicians and bankers, they mainly seem to be after alternative ways to bring them influence and power, not necessarily spiritual insight.
Another interesting fact is that politicians and Anglican church officials are regularly invited into Druid groves. When this is reported in the news the usual response is that "it's perfectly
Christian", although a detailed explanation is seldom, if ever given. I think it's a bit strange that Christian leaders do not actively attempt to take away people's concerns when they join certain organizations (formerly?) associated with pagan practices. Nicholas de Vere, in 'The Origin of The Dragon Lords of the Rings', wrote:
"In this is borne out, by the Druids ready acceptance of Celtic Christianity, the fact that Jesus' original, undoctored Gnostic teachings were founded on Essene Magian Philosophy amalgamated with the mystical doctrines of Mithras and Dionysus. Alchemy, Cabala and Hermetics were the centre of Christ's Anschauung. All the foregoing are components of that Eurasian "religion" we know as Druidism which, for the Indians is Hinduism and for the Persians is their Zoroastrianism which for the West eventually became our Celtic Christianity."
Make of it what you will. Among the more prominent officials that have been invited into Druid groves are Winston Churchill (Prime Minister), David Lloyd George (Prime Minister), Queen Elizabeth II, George Noakes (Archbishop of Wales), Rowan Williams (Archbishop of Canterbury), and Daniel Mullins (Roman Catholic bishop of Menevia) (21 & 22). Undoubtedly this is only the tip of iceberg, but individuals aren't exactly forthcoming about these aspects of their lives. This is not at all to say that these people are wicked. After all, it is part of their history. It's just that some of the publicly known groves have a lot of similarities with the Masonic groups of which a certain degree of secrecy and elitism is a basic ingredient. In both cases the participants come to their groves and lodges to "discuss literature, poetry, music and art" and maybe to do a bit of tree-hugging or to perform a few dusty old rituals. In case of the Bohemian Grove a lot of these people come there to network, although they're all pretending not do to that ("makes it easier to pick up the phone"). But all these groves, just as all the publicly known Masonic degrees, are only supposed to be outer circles anyway, part of the 'association of helpers' so to speak, so who really cares what the participants think.
Conclusion
What have we learned about the Bohemian Grove in this article? Well, besides that the Anglo-American elite probably inspired the Cremation of Care, actually surprisingly little. We've gone all over the Middle-East, Mainland Europe, England, and the United States, but still some of the basic questions have not been answered (to most people's satisfaction). Who or what is the owl supposed to represent and do the Bohemians themselves have any idea? To some it might refer to ancient Greece (Athena), which has always served as a great inspiration to the western world. Others might be of the opinion that it is a reference to Ishtar or Inanna. Still others might be of the opinion that it symbolizes Lilith and her Dragon lineage. And still others undoubtedly think the owl is nothing more then the Bohemian Club symbol. Then again, is the owl surrounding the capitol building just a coincidence?
Other unanswered questions are: Who or what inspired Joseph Redding to put together the Cremation of Care? Do some of the observers of the Cremation of Care indeed go into a good old Bacchanalian ecstatic trance state during the beginning of the ritual, like Alex Jones and Jon Ronson have described (21)? What is the opinion of the Bohemian Grovers of the flyer, obtained by Alex Jones and Jon Ronson, that clearly depicts a baby having been sacrificed in the Cremation of Care fire? Or what is the opinion in general of the Bohemians as they watch a pretty macabre openings ritual?
To be honest, I am not that interested in the Bohemian Grove all by itself and this article has largely been just an excuse to dabble a bit in the mystical aspects of the globalist movement and to look for the origins of some of its perversions (which we will focus on in the future). Western mysticism is elitist, seems to have great influence over the more mainstream religions, is hopelessly intertwined with politics, banking, law, and intelligence, and if you look below the thin layer of paint, you'll see that most of the upper level people don't seem to have any degree of spiritual enlightenment whatsoever.
My guess is that the Grove's Cremation of Care is a visible aspect of a hidden hermeticist religion with very unconventional ideas. Poets and other artists often communicated hidden messages and double meanings within the works they wrote, especially when they were connected to high society. Even regular artists (take Iron Maiden) (24) are fond of doing that, but this certainly has always been a specific trait of Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, Druidism, or any other mystery religion. Shakespeare, or the 17th Earl of Oxford if you will, is often cited as an example and Joseph D. Redding might well turn out to be another one. But in the end your guess is as good as mine.
Quick note on entertainment and ceremonial magic
Masaaki Hatsumi, the only grand master of ninjutsu still alive, wrote (25):
Criss Angel aka "Mindfreak" in one of his recent TV shows. His lower levitation is explained in one of his DVDs as a 'simple' trick where specially made shoes and pants are used. In his series some people were in the right position to see through this trick, but still acted surprised. Therefore it's obvious that part of his show is less spontanious than many think. He never explains how he does the higher levitations or the psychic stuff, but don't be surprised if there is zero 'paranormal' power involved. These people are thinking every minute on how to deceive people and have increasingly access to high tech toys. Many are atheists with degrees in psychology. In fact, even camera tricks and a hired crowd woudn't be a problem for some magicians, because "everybody knows it's all an illusion." "People who perform genjutsu are called magicians, illusionists, and rainmakers. They are influenced by Mikkyo (secret teachings of Dainichi Nyorai) and dokyo or Taoism. In comparison with genjutsu, yojutsu is eerie and performs its tricks by borrowing the supernatural powers of the various spirits... We must realize that these tricks, used to deceive people, were taught for that purpose; thus the performers gain a wicked heart by training in them... such tricks or miracles as making the wife of a samurai who had been dead for five years, appear in front of the widower's eyes... [or showing] a man in hell being gruesomely tortured... [but] the ninja utilize yojutsu and genjutsu in inton jutsu (hiding techniques) and in intrigue..."
"If one calls genjutsu spacial illusion tricks, yojutsu should be called material tricks. But let me declare that they only exist in the realm of fantasy... striking terror into the audiences' hearts or filling them with illusionary joy is a type of mass hypnosis."
From his writings it is clear that Hatsumi is no fan of magic and he once wrote it "leads to ruin," or something like that. On the other hand, even with all his personal experience, I get the impression that Hatsumi only spoke from a historical Japanese point of view, which was seemingly filled with mischievous magicians/illusionists who were only after personal gain (and now that I am thinking of it, how about our own past?).
I think that a recent show like Mindfreak (a US illusionist) is great, because it gets people thinking and studying about things we all should be aware of. If we exclude the theory that hundreds of witnesses have been bought for each individual episode [update: part of the audience is indeed "in" on some of the tricks], the show does provide serious evidence to everyone that the laws of reality can be bend to the extreme, whether that's due to a 'what you see is what you get' effect or due to a form of mind control. Think of the military potentials alone, the
secrecy that would surround it, and how this would be maintained (by messing with one's mind). Reading Hatsumi's book, it appears that the military potentials have been realized a long time ago:
"The lord was impressed by the master illusionist [who was able to sneak into a heavily guarded mansion using these skills] and thought that he would be a tremendous asset against an enemy if he were to be the lord's vassal. But also he was a great danger if he were to turn against him and disobey his orders... Seeing this side of the situation the lord said that the illusionist was a threat to the populace and ordered his execution. [the illusionist escaped]"
Hatsumi's note, "borrowing the supernatural powers of the various spirits" (as opposed to developing a power, if possible, yourself), is interesting because Western
ceremonial magic is largely based on that: the interaction with elemental spirits. Solomon, who's every (non-entertainment oriented) magician's inspiration (the two Masonic pillars refer to the two pillars of his temple), is reported to have been a master in it. John Dee, a teacher of de Vere and associate of the Cecils, did this stuff together with Edward Kelley through their Enochian magic. In that case they definitely contacted the wrong beings who made them do things they weren't exactly pleased with (26). Arthur Balfour, a relative of the Cecils, was holding seances at his house contacting god-knows-what (27). Crowley, supposedly once a protege of the Cecils (28), was inspired by one of these beings and contacted numerous others. One of these other beings, Lam, looked an awful lot like a type of grey alien. There's much more to this story, especially if you look at some of the reports that have been made in recent years, but
Crowley's Lam. Notice the Ankh and eagle wings (1919)
that's a whole other article. A chart of the occult and political relations of the Cecil bloodline is available here.
There is definitely some overlap between entertainment magic, individual and mass hypnosis, the way the brain perceives reality, ceremonial magic, and the supernatural. But how it all fits together, I don't know. Explaining these topics requires personal experience, not just theoretical knowledge from books.
More Mindfreak. In one of his episodes he turns water into beer. Now what does that remind you of? It is seemingly possible to change it in anything someone can imagine. Simple trickery, partly bought crowds, and hypnosis is definitely part of many of his stunts, so it I wouldn't jump to conclusions here.

What is the Frankfurt School? ©
by
Dr. Gerald L. Atkinson CDR USN (Ret.)
Copyright 1 August 1999
If you have absorbed any of the background material presented in this series of essays on "'Cultural Marxism' at the U.S. Naval Academy," you should be quite concerned that our future naval officers are being subjected to psychic intimidation and indoctrination by behavioral psychologists and clinicians whose methods descend from Wilhelm Wundt [1]. The 'facilitators' and civilian professors in the 'Leadership and Ethics' program at the Academy are Wundtians all. The 'cultural Marxism' that has invaded our military academies and other military institutions is pervasive. As a result, these future naval officers will not have an understanding of the essence of what they are chosen to protect, that is, American civilization [2] -- the most vital and precious descendent of Western civilization.
One must wonder who 'they' are. Who in America today is at work destroying our traditions, our family bonds, our religious beginnings, our reinforcing institutions, indeed, our entire culture? What is it that is changing our American civilization?
Indeed, a thoughtful person should ask himself or herself whether or not all this 'change' from America's traditional culture is simply a random set of events played out by a random set of players, all independent of each other -- all disconnected from any central premise or guidance. It is entirely possible that chance is at work here and all of these 'threads' of American culture are the random workings of the human intellect (the pursuit of what is possible, vice what is appropriate) in a free, democratic society.
But suppose you were to learn that nearly all of the observations made in this series of essays are completely consistent with a 'design' -- that is a concept, a way of thinking, and a process for bringing it about. And suppose one could identify a small core group of people who designed just such a concept and thought through the process of infusing it into a culture. Wouldn't you be interested in at least learning about such a core group? Wouldn't you want to know who they were, what they thought, and how they conjured up a process for bringing their thoughts into action? For Americans with even a smidgeon of curiosity, the answer should be a resounding yes!
If such a core group could be found, then it would still depend on your personal 'world view' as to its significance. If you believe in the 'blind watchmaker,' that is, all cosmic and social events are random and guided only by the laws of nature, 'evolutionary' in the sense of competing with other random events for survival in a 'stochastic' world, you may choose to believe that such a core group was meaningless -- it may have existed but so what? It may have been only one of an uncountably large number of such 'groups' in the world's history. And you may believe that any particular group's 'window of opportunity' to influence future generations was passed by and did little to influence the course of America's history.
If you believe, instead, that nature has a 'design,' and that all events can be connected and we humans can make sense out of many of them if we will only 'connect all of the dots,' then you may believe that this small core group has great influence, even today, in American Culture. If this is your world view, you may (but not necessarily) even believe in a 'conspiracy. and 'conspirators' which and who aim to alter our culture on a vast scale.
It is clear, however, that irrespective of one's 'world view,' it is informative to at least know of such a core group (if it, indeed, existed), what it believed, what it set out to accomplish, and what methods it followed to take action on its beliefs.
Just such a core group did, indeed, exist. That is, history identifies a small group of German intellectuals who devised concepts, processes, and action plans which conform very closely to what Americans presently observe every day in their culture. Observations, such as those made in this series of essays, can be directly traced to the work of this core group of intellectuals. They were members of the Frankfurt School, formed in Germany in 1923. They were the forebears of what some proclaim as 'cultural Marxism,' a radical social movement that has transformed American culture. It is more commonly known today as 'political correctness.'
'Cultural Marxism' and 'critical theory' are concepts developed by a group of German intellectuals, who, in 1923 in Germany, founded the Institute of Social Research at Frankfurt University. The Institute, modeled after the Marx-Engels Institute in Moscow, became known as the Frankfurt School [3]. In 1933, when the Nazis came to power in Germany, the members of the Frankfurt School fled to the United States. While here, they migrated to major U.S. universities (Columbia, Princeton, Brandeis, and California at Berkeley). These intellectual Marxists included Herbert Marcuse, who coined the phrase, 'make love, not war,' during the anti-Vietnam War demonstrations.
By promoting the dialectic of 'negative' criticism, that is, pointing out the rational contradictions in a society's belief system, the Frankfurt School 'revolutionaries' dreamed of a utopia where their rules governed [4]. "Their Critical Theory had to contain a strongly imaginative, even utopian strain, which transcends the limits of reality." Its tenets would never be subject to experimental evidence. The pure logic of their thoughts would be incontrovertible. As a precursor to today's 'postmodernism' in the intellectual academic community, [5] "...it recognized that disinterested scientific research was impossible in a society in which men were themselves not yet autonomous...the researcher was always part of the social object he was attempting to study." This, of course, is the concept which led to the current fetish for the rewriting of history, and the vogue for our universities' law, English literature, and humanities disciplines -- deconstruction.
Critical theory rejected the ideal of Western Civilization in the age of modern science, that is, the verification or falsifying [6] of theory by experimental evidence. Only the superior mind was able to fashion the 'truths' from observation of the evidence. There would be no need to test these hypotheses against everyday experience.
The Frankfurt school studied the 'authoritarian personality' which became synonymous with the male, the patriarchal head of the American family. A modern utopia would be constructed by these idealistic intellectuals by 'turning Western civilization' upside down. This utopia would be a product of their imagination, a product not susceptible to criticism on the basis of the examination of evidence. This 'revolution' would be accomplished by fomenting a very quiet, subtle and slowly spreading 'cultural Marxism' which would apply to culture the principles of Karl Marx bolstered by the modern psychological tools of Sigmund Freud. Thus, 'cultural Marxism' became a marriage of Marx and Freud aimed at producing a 'quiet' revolution in the United States of America. This 'quiet' revolution has occurred in America over the past 30 years. While America slept!
What is 'cultural Marxism?' Why should it even be considered when the world's vast experiment with the economic theory of Karl Marx has recently gone down to defeat with the disintegration of Soviet communism? Didn't America win the Cold War against the spread of communism? The answer is a resounding 'yes, BUT. We won the 55-year Cold War but, while winning it abroad, we have failed to understand that an intellectual elite has subtly but systematically and surely converted the economic theory of Marx to culture in American society. And they did it while we were busy winning the Cold War abroad. They introduced 'cultural Marxism' into the mainstream of American life over a period of thirty years, while our attention was diverted elsewhere.
The vehicle for this introduction was the idealistic Boomer elite, those young middle-class and well-to-do college students who became the vanguard of America's counter-culture revolution of the mid-1960s -- those draft-dodging, pot-smoking, hippies who demonstrated against the Vietnam War and who fomented the destructive (to women) 'women's liberation' movement. These New Totalitarians [7] are now in power as they have come to middle-age and control every public institution in our nation. But that is getting ahead of the story.
The cauldron for implementing this witches brew were the elites of the Boomer generation. They are the current 'foot soldiers' of the original Frankfurt School gurus. The counter-culture revolution of the 1960s was set in motion and guided intellectually by the 'cultural Marxists' of the Frankfurt School -- Herbert Marcuse, Eric Fromm, Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, Wilhelm Reich, and others [8,9]., Its influence is now felt in nearly every institution in the United States. The elite Boomers, throwbacks to the dangerous idealist Transcendental generation of the mid-1800s, are the 'agents of change,' who have introduced 'cultural Marxism' into American life.
William S. Lind relates [10] that 'cultural Marxism' is an ideology with deep roots. It did not begin with the counter-culture revolution in the mid-1960s. Its roots go back at least to the 1920s and the writings of the Italian Communist Antonio Gramsci [11]. These roots, over time, spread to the writings of Herbert Marcuse.
Herbert Marcuse was one of the most prominent Frankfurt School promoters of Critical Theory's social revolution among college and university students in the 1960s. It is instructive to review what he has written on the subject:
"One can rightfully speak of a cultural revolution, since the protest is directed toward the
whole cultural establishment, including the morality of existing society ...
there is one thing we can say with complete assurance. The traditional idea of revolution
and the traditional strategy of revolution have ended. These ideas are old-fashioned ...
what we must undertake is a type of diffuse and dispersed disintegration of the system."
This sentiment was first expressed by the early 20th century Italian Marxist, Antonio Gramsci.
Gramsci, a young communist who died in one of Mussolini's prisons in 1937 at the age of 46, conjured up the notion of a 'quiet' revolution that could be diffused throughout a culture -- over a period of time -- to destroy it from within. He was the first to suggest that the application of psychology to break the traditions, beliefs, morals, and will of a people could be accomplished quietly and without the possibility of resistance. He deduced that "The civilized world had been thoroughly saturated with Christianity for 2,000 years..." and a culture based on this religion could only be captured from within.
Gramsci insisted that alliances with non-Communist leftist groups would be essential to Communist victory. In our time, these would include radical feminist groups, extremist environmental organizations, so-called civil rights movements, anti-police associations, internationalist-minded groups, liberal church denominations, and others. Working together, these groups could create a united front working for the destructive transformation of the old Judeo-Christian culture of the West.
By winning 'cultural hegemony,' Gramsci pointed out that they could control the deepest wellsprings of human thought -- through the medium of mass psychology. Indeed, men could be made to 'love their servitude.' In terms of the gospel of the Frankfurt School, resistance to 'cultural Marxism' could be completely negated by placing the resister in a psychic 'iron cage.' The tools of mass psychology could be applied to produce this result.
The essential nature of Antonio Gramsci's revolutionary strategy is reflected in a 1990s book [12] by the American Boomer author, Charles A. Reich, 'The Greening of America.' "There is a revolution coming. It will not be like revolutions of the past. It will originate with the individual and the culture, and it will change the political structure as its final act. It will not require violence to succeed, and it cannot be successfully resisted by violence. This is the revolution of the New Generation." Of course this New Generation would be Reich's elite Boomer generation. And the mantra for these New Age 'foot soldiers' of the Frankfurt School prophets, would be 'have the courage to change [13].'
The Frankfurt School theorized that the 'authoritarian personality' is a product of the patriarchal family. This idea is in turn directly connected to Frederich Engels' 'The Origins of the Family, Private Property and the State,' which promotes matriarchy. Furthermore, it was Karl Marx who wrote about the radical notion of a 'community of women' in the Communist manifesto. And it was Karl Marx who wrote disparagingly about the idea that the family was the basic unit of society in 'The German Ideology' of 1845.
'The Authoritarian personality,' studied by the Frankfurt School in the 1940s and 1950s in America, prepared the way for the subsequent warfare against the masculine gender promoted by Herbert Marcuse and his band of social revolutionaries under the guise of 'women's liberation' and the New Left movement in the 1960s. The evidence that psychological techniques for changing personality is intended to mean emasculation of the American male is provided by Abraham Maslow, founder of Third Force Humanist Psychology and a promoter of the psychotherapeutic classroom, who wrote that, '...the next step in personal evolution is a transcendence of both masculinity and femininity to general humanness.' The Marxist revolutionaries knew exactly what they wanted to do and how to do it. They have succeeded in accomplishing much of their agenda.
But how can we claim the 'causes' of the breakdown of our schools, our universities, indeed, the very fiber of our culture were a product of a tiny group of intellectuals who immigrated from Germany in 1933? Given all of the special-interest groups involved in these activities, how can we trace these 'causes' to the Frankfurt school? Look at some of the evidence.
As an example, postmodern reconstruction of the history of Western Civilization (now prevalent in our universities) has its roots in the Critical Theory of the Frankfurt School. This rewriting of history by the postmodern scholars in America has only recently come under attack. Keith Windschuttle, in his book, 'Killing of History,' has severely criticized the rush to 'relativism' by historiographers. What is truly astonishing, however, is that 'relativism' has largely supplanted the pursuit of truth as a goal in historical study [14]. George G. Iggers' recently published book, 'Historiography in the Twentieth Century: From Scientific Objectivity to the Postmodern Challenge,' reminds us of the now famous line by Hayden White, a postmodernist, "Historical narratives...are verbal fictions, the contents of which are more invented than found." He quotes other postmodernists, mostly non- historians, who [15] "...reinforce the proposition that truth and reality are primarily authoritarian weapons of our times." We now recognize the source of this postmodern assault -- the cultural Marxists of the Frankfurt School who became experts in criticizing the 'authoritarian personality' in American culture.
Herbert London refutes White's proposition by observing, "...if history is largely invention, who can say with authority that the American Revolution came before the French Revolution?" He observes that evidence has taken a back seat to inventiveness. He thus cuts right to the chase -- the inventions of postmodernism, which are cutting successive generations of Americans off from their culture and their history, evolved directly from the 'cultural Marxist' scholars of the Frankfurt School.
How did this situation come about in America's universities? Gertrude Himmelfarb has observed [16] that it slipped past those traditional academics almost unobserved until it was too late. It occurred so 'quietly' that when they 'looked up,' postmodernism was upon them with a vengeance. "They were surrounded by a tidal wave of faddish multicultural subjects such as radical feminism, deconstructed relativism as history and other courses" which undermine the perpetuation of Western Civilization. Indeed, this tidal wave slipped by just as Antonio Gramsci and the Frankfurt School had envisioned -- a 'quiet' revolution. A revolution that could not be resisted by force.
It is of interest to note that the 'sensitivity training' techniques used in our public schools over the past 30 years and which are now employed by the U.S. military to educate the troops about 'sexual harassment' were developed during World War II and thereafter by Kurt Lewin [17] and his proteges. One of them, Abraham Maslow, was a member of the Frankfurt school and the author [18] of 'The Art of Facilitation' which is a manual used during such 'sensitivity' training. Thereby teachers were indoctrinated not to teach but to 'facilitate.' This manual describes the techniques developed by Kurt Lewin and others to change a person's world view via participation in small-group encounter sessions. Teachers were to become amateur group therapists. The classroom became the center of self-examination, therapeutic circles where children (and later on, military [19] personnel) talked about their own subjective feelings. This technique was designed to convince children they were the sole authority in their own lives.
It is important to realize that this movement, 'cultural Marxism,' exists, understand where it came from, and what its objectives were -- the complete destruction of Western Civilization in America. That is, these 'cultural Marxists' aimed to destroy, slowly but surely from the bottom up, the entire fabric of American Civilization.
By the end of World War II, almost all the original Frankfurt School members had become American citizens. This meant the beginning of a new English-speaking audience for the school. Now the focus was on American forms of authoritarianism. With this shift in subject matter came a subtle change in the center of the Institute's work. In America, authoritarianism appeared in different forms than its European counterpart. Instead of terror or coercion, more gentle forms of enforced conformism had been developed. According to Martin Jay, [20] "Perhaps the most effective of these were to be found in the cultural field. American mass culture thus became one of the central concerns of the Frankfurt School in the 1940s."
Since the 1940s, subtle changes appeared in the Frankfurt School's descriptions of their work. For example, the opposite of the 'authoritarian personality' was no longer the 'revolutionary,' as it had been in previous studies aimed at Europeans. In America, it was now the 'democratic' who opposed the 'authoritarian personality.' Thus, their language matched more closely the liberal [21] "...New Deal rather than Marxist or radical.." language. Education for tolerance, rather than praxis for revolutionary change, was the ostensible goal of their research. They were cleverly merging their language with the mainstream of liberal left thought in America while maintaining their 'cultural Marxist' objectives.
Toleration had never been an end in itself for the Frankfurt School, and yet the non-authoritarian (utopian) personality, insofar as it was defined, was posited as a person with a non-dogmatic tolerance for diversity [22]. This thought is dominant in today's power elite of the Boomer generation, the New Totalitarians.
One of the basic tenets of Critical Theory was the necessity to break down the contemporary family. The Institute scholars preached that [23] "...Even a partial breakdown of parental authority in the family might tend to increase the readiness of a coming generation to accept social change." The 'generation gap' of the 1960s and the 'gender gap' of the 1990s are two aspects of the attempt by the elite Boomers (taking a page out of 'cultural Marxism') to transform American culture into their 'Marxist' utopia.
The transformation of American culture envisioned by the 'cultural Marxists' is based on matriarchal theory. That is, they propose transforming American culture into a female-dominated one. This is a direct throwback to Wilhelm Reich, a Frankfurt School member who considered matriarchal theory in psychoanalytic terms. In 1933, he wrote in The Mass Psychology of Fascism that matriarchy was the only genuine family type of 'natural society.'
Eric Fromm, another charter member of the Institute, was also one of the most active advocates of matriarchal theory. Fromm was especially taken with the idea that all love and altruistic feelings were ultimately derived from the maternal love necessitated by the extended period of human pregnancy and postnatal care. "Love was thus not dependent on sexuality, as Freud had supposed. In fact, sex was more often tied to hatred and destruction. Masculinity and femininity [24] were not reflections of 'essential' sexual differences, as the romantics had thought. They were derived instead from differences in life functions, which were in part socially determined." This dogma was the precedent for today's radical feminist pronouncements appearing in nearly every major newspaper and TV program, including the television newscasts. For these current day radicals, male and female roles result from cultural indoctrination in America -- an indoctrination carried out by the male patriarchy to the detriment of women. Nature plays no role in this matter.
But in terms of destruction and disintegration, Critical Theory absorbed by the 'change agents' and other social revolutionaries has led them to declare their intent to restructure America. As they proclaim, this means their activities have been directed toward the disintegration of the traditional white male power structure. As anyone with eyes to view present-day television and motion pictures can confirm, this has been largely achieved. In other words, Critical Theory, as applied mass psychology, brought forth a 'quiet' psychic revolution which facilitated an actual physical revolution that has become visible everywhere in the United States of America.
It was the destructive criticism of the primary elements of American culture that inspired the 1960s counter-culture revolution. As the name implies, this false 'spiritual awakening' by the idealist Boomers in their coming-of-age years was an effort to transform the prevailing culture into an inverted or opposite kind of culture that is a necessary prelude to social revolution. Now that these elite Boomers are in positions of power in the United States, they are completing their work of destroying every institution that has been built up over 200 years of American history. Their aim is to destroy any vestige of the Anglo-American path [25] taken by Western Civilization in forming the unique American culture.
Most Americans do not yet realize that they are being led by social revolutionaries who think in terms of the destruction of the existing social order in order to create a new social order in the world. These revolutionaries are the New Age elite Boomers, the New Totalitarians [26]. They now control every public institution in the United States of America. Their 'quiet' revolution, beginning with the counter-culture revolution of their youth, is nearly complete. It was based on the intellectual foundation of the 'cultural Marxists' of the Frankfurt School. Its completion depends on keeping the American male in his psychic 'iron cage.'
The confluence of radical feminism and 'cultural Marxism' within the span of a single generation, that of the elite Boomers (possibly the most dangerous [27] generation in America's history), has imposed this yoke on the American male. It remains to be seen whether or not he will continue his 'voluntary submission' to a future of slavery in a new American matriarchy, the precursor to a state of complete anarchy.
If we allow this subversion of American values and interests to continue, we will (in future generations) lose all that our ancestors suffered and died for. We are forewarned. A reading of history -- it is all in mainstream historical accounts -- tells us that we are about to lose the most precious thing we have -- our individual freedoms.

Wundt, in the 1870s, advanced the then-radical notion of man as an 'animal,' not accountable for his conduct, which was said to be caused entirely by forces beyond his control. According to Wundt's thinking, in a human being there is nothing there to begin with but a body, a brain, and a nervous system. Therefore, teachers must try to educate a person by inducing sensations in that nervous system. Through these experiences, the individual will learn to respond to any given stimulus, with the 'correct' response. Thus, a child's actions are thought to be preconditioned and beyond his control, because he is simply a stimulus-response mechanism.

Subject: Project for the Exposure of Hidden Institutions (PEHI) Updates 1
January 18, 2006
a.. A completely new and extremely extensive introduction has been written, which details almost the entire globalist movement. From 19th century Britain, to the US, Israel, the European Union, Russia, China, and finally to the United Nations and the sustainable development movement. Most will be traced to the Rockefeller and Rothschild families who are surrounded by a small army of their proteges. In other cases the Pilgrims Society will do. Due to its excessive details it's probably hard to completely absorb in one quick read, but in the end it will leave little, if any doubt that there is a conspiracy to bring about a certain version of global government. Whether you think this is a good thing or not is completely besides the point at this moment. The latter part of the article will get pretty grim though. Don't forget to take a look at the appendixes or some of the quotes in the column on the left; It list two interesting quotes from Dutch politicians which haven't been made available before. Below is also a greatly updated version of my gif that shows the overall conspiracy. There's no discussion possible that all these institutes, and undoubtedly a whole lot more, are absorbed in the above three societies almost no one has heard of. And that's an enigma all by itself.
Other updates
a.. I inserted a short timeline in Appendix A for the Synarchist Movement of Empire. This timeline is based on the work of Roger Mennevée, which was recently brought to light by Pierre Beaudry and EIR in general. In this case we are not talking about the philosophical movement, but a (supposedly) real and tangible society, which was created in 1922 and was traced in France to the post-WWII Vichy government remnants. Some of these elements, like Jean Violet, Otto von Habsburg. and Alexandre de Marenches ended up in the Pinay Circle/Le Cercle, today headed by a Privy Councilor and a Rothschild employee. The SME books of Pierre Beaudry, together with my short timeline, can be found here. My timeline only deals with one chapter of Book IV, by the way. There's is much more to this movement and-or group.
b.. Earlier I took out Nazi general Reinhard Gehlen as a confirmed member of Le Cercle/Pinay Circle, because I couldn't find where I based that upon. Now I see Gehlen was indeed involved with this group to such a degree that he has to have played a significant role in it (although, technically, his position as chief of the German intelligence agencies was already a confirmation in itself). According to a confidential memo of Hans Langemann to Dr. Waltner, as written in Der Spiegel No 37, 1982, 'Victory for Strauss' and translated by Lobster, November 1988 – Issue 17, 'Brian Crozier, the Pinay Circle and James Goldsmith': "Gehlen, who was always interested in the undertaking [of the Pinay Circle], its figures, its personalities and its results, succeeded in recruiting Violet [co-founder of the Pinay Circle] as a special agent and granted him 6000 DM a month for many years. He also claimed that this sum had been agreed with the former head of the SDECE, General Jacquier because Violet is also receiving the same sum from the SDECE." Good enough for me, at least for now.
c.. Last month I uploaded an article about the occult connections of the Bohemian Grove, which can be read here. In it I regularly quote Nicholas de Vere, former head of the British Dragon Court, who claims he and his buddies are descendants of the Archdruid-Elven-Fairy-Dragon race (supposedly, they have a few additional genes). A separate article about de Vere is located here. In the Bohemian Grove article I mention how a very decent case has been made that one of Nicholas de Vere's ancestors, the 17th Earl of Oxford, has written, or at least heavily influenced the work of Shakespeare. Then I conclude that because of Joseph Redding's connections to the Pilgrims Society families he also might have gotten his inspiration for his version of the Cremation of Care from these same Dragon families (which tie into the Pilgrims). I never updated Joseph Redding's original bio so I missed at least two very important things that I found out by looking at a discussion forum which linked to my site. So, thx 'Menace.'
The first interesting coincidence is that Joseph D. Redding wrote a play called Fay-Yen-Fah, in which I immediately recognized the word 'Fay.' In Dutch 'fee' means 'fairy' and too my surprise it turned out that 'fay' in (old?) English also means 'fairy.' This, of course, perfectly coincides with de Vere's continues talk about his fairy race or Disraeli calling Queen Victory 'faery queen', or Edmund Spenser calling Queen Elizabeth I 'faery queen'. All these people were associated with the Cecils and-or the occult. Fay-Yen-Fah is a story about Chinese mythology, by the way.
Redding was also the author of a 1912 Bohemian Grove play, The Atonement of Pan, which was composed by Henry Hadley. Pan, half-goat half man, happens to be a close follower of Dionysus and together with the rather psychotic Maenads, he usually participated in the sexual and ecstatic (mythological) celebrations. The (real) rites of the Maenads and Dionysus are described in detail in the Bohemian Grove Symbolism article. They weren't pretty. And as expected, Nicholas de Vere also mentioned Pan in The Origin of The Dragon Lords of the Rings. In fact, he starts out with this deity:
"Hermes is the father of Pan and Zeus is the father of Dionysus. Pan and Dionysus are always featured in the same retinue and as Bacchus, Pan's rites duplicate those of his twin Dionysus... The Dionysic Rites were cannibalistic and vampiric and echo the era of the cannibalism and vampirism of the (Titanic) era of the sons of the Nephilim."
"The wings of Baphomet are swan's wings and this immediately speaks of the swan princes, grail princesses and fairy queens which symbolise the dragon blood. Baphomet is a Nephilim. Its legs are the legs of Pan..."
Baphomet was the chief deity of the Knights Templar, who, according to the Dragon Court, fled to Britain and finally established Freemasonry. In between those two mystery religions you had Rosicrucianism, which the circle around Queen Elizabeth I was involved with (Cecil; de Vere; Bacon; Dee). John Dee also created Enochian Magic. At least some of these beliefs seem to have survived the modern age when you look at members of the Pilgrims Society who are leading figures in organizations like the Order of the Merovingian Dynasty, Order of the Crown of Charlemagne, the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite, the United Grand Lodge, and the Military Order of the Crusades. There are many I haven't included in the above .gif yet.
There's undoubtedly a mythological mystical aspect to the Bohemian Grove and its plays. If this is unique to the Grove, I don't know. I do know that in the 30 minutes I spent doing this little update I came across plays entitled 'the Magician,' (Hubert Stowitts was involved with that, who earlier provided paintings for Joseph Redding's Fay-Yen-Fah) 'Doktor Faust,' (the 16th century magician who, like Solomon, described how to summon up many different demons and elementals), and 'Dance of the Harpies' (written by Henry Hadley who composed the Atonement of Pan together with Redding). Hadley also wrote a play called Semper Virens, after which a Bohemian camp was named.
Maybe the explanation is that many of the early 20th century composers were involved with Theosophy. On the other, at least in case of the Bohemian Grove, the question is why anyone whould be interested in reviving/mimicking the gruesome rites associated with these gods.
d.. Finally, I would like to warn people about a new DVD entitled Sacred Space from "the Enigma Channel", seemingly set up by two 15-year olds in their mother's basement. Because David Icke features in it, talking about Paperclip and the Bushes, a lot of people are probably going to watch it. The problem is that Project Paperclip, the stuff about the Bush family, and (as far as I know) even the UV UFOs are all confirmed, but because of their additional moon hoax, Illuminati, and Satanic themes it all gets spinned into a useless pile of garbage that no honest skeptic is going to take serious. What I especially want people to beware of is a [selective] 3 second quote from astronaut Scott Carpenter, which, in the movie, goes like:
"... There were so many unknowns in the early days. And this is the fact of the matter. We were really not sure after John [Glenn] flew whether or not there were critters, living critters, up there some place."
Obviously, the producers imply that Carpenter is talking about the UV-UFOs taped by NASA. Unfortunately, this turns out not to be the case and the producers have conveniently cut out the first second of Carpenter's sentence. After doing a quick Google search it turned out that the full version reads:
"It's hard to realize this now, there were so many unknowns in the early
days, and this is a fact of the matter, we were really not sure, after John
flew, whether or not there were critters, living critters up there somewhere."
Immediately you realize by looking at the first part of this sentence that it refers to something that is NOW solved. And I don't know if it's the same interview, but NASA has a January 29, 1999 interview with Carpenter which has a very similar wording. Unfortunately, I can't quote the text for some reason, but here you have the url:
www.jsc. nasa .gov/history/oral_histories/ CarpenterMS/MSC_1-27-99.pdf
In this interview Carpenter talks about the anomalous critters he continually saw flying past the shuttle window. At some point he noticed that whenever John Glenn slammed a certain hatch these "living critters" appeared. They were ice crystals.
Of course, the explanation of ice crystals has also been giving to objects that turn 120 degrees in one second before heading out to space with 200,000 mph, but in this instance it's actually the truth. Could the producers have been this stupid? Or did they do it on purpose? If they wanted an astronaut to talk about UFOs and its subsequent cover up they could easily have taken Gordon Cooper or Edgar Mitchell (look at the UFO page). For some reason they went through a lot of effort to get this three second bogus video. In any case, Icke has another dent in credibility, which wasn't too robust already. That's unfortunate, because his books are filled with many little known facts that all deserve their own book. His books might not be perfect, but Icke certainly doesn't deserve ridicule.
And to give you one of the best examples of a truly amazing and undeniable UFO case, in contrast to what Sacred Space presents, take a look at the following picture and then look up the original reports at the UFO page on this website:

Subject: Project for the Exposure of Hidden Institutions (PEHI) Updates 2
Another Templar bloodline in Pilgrims Society.
February 20, 2006
"Read no history: nothing but biography, for that is life without theory."
- Benjamin Disraeli, close friend of both patrons of the Round Table, the Cecil and Rothschild families.
1903 Pilgrims list. The '+' means this person is part of the executive committee. In the last update I wrote that the Sinclair family, of Knights Templar fame, has been represented in the Pilgrims Society at least twice, and in one case on the executive committee. The Sinclairs were the closest associates of Robert the Bruce (allowed the Templars in Scotland) and later built Rosslyn Chapel. The English branch went on the first crusade with Godfrey de Bouillon, who was the Duke of Lower-Lorraine, the later King of Jerusalem, and the first Knights
Templar grandmaster. The French branch of the Sinclairs has been part of the Knights Templar group and all this seems to explain why the Templars fled to their cousins in Scotland.
Don't forget that the Dragon Court acknowledges this historical fact, including the fact that Freemasonry descended from the Templars. In fact, Templarism is Rosicrucianism, and the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, which was ment for the layperson, descended from these practices. The Francis Bacon group, including the ultra-influential Cecils (today also members of the Pilgrims Society and Le Cercle), slowly introduced the Scottish Rite to British Society in the 16th and 17th century. Enochian magic is part of this system, which has been described in more detail here.
Because of these facts, it's very plausible that there are more than 33 degrees within the Scottish Rite, as a lot of researchers have claimed over the centuries. In fact, if you happen to have the desired mindset, you'd probably end up in specific Rosicrucian and Templar circles, so the statement that there are only 33 degrees within the Scottish Rite is probably not a lie.
When I wrote the last update on the Sinclair family, I hadn't yet realized that the Bruce family, who are also members of the Pilgrims Society, are direct descendants of Robert the Bruce, as is mentioned on the official website of the Bruce family. David Kirkpatrick Este Bruce was a vice president of the Pilgrims Society in the 1970s, next to John Hay Whitney, and was identified by Charles Savoie. His brother, James Cabell Bruce, was another influential member of the Pilgrims Society.
David K.E. Bruce
Both Bruce's have extensive biographies that can be read in the Pilgrims Society membership list. Amongst many other things, David Bruce was head of the OSS in the whole of Europe during WWII and a husband of Paul Mellon’s sister. Paul Mellon was another Pilgrims Society member, not to mention the 1001 Club and Scroll & Key. Paul was an OSS station chief in London during WWII, working under David Bruce (like Pilgrims Society member Allen Dulles in Switzerland), and a later close associate of the CIA. The queen regularly visited his mansion since the 1950s.
James Bruce was president of Chase National Bank during the time it was taken over by the Rockefeller family. In 1933, in the midst of the great depression, he and Albert Wiggin (Pilgrims) were sued for trying to ruin a company that didn't want to sell out to the British Rio Tinto, a company that has always been associated with the Rothschilds. Rio Tinto was founded by the Keswick family, who are close associates of the Rothschilds. Two generations have appeared in the Pilgrims Society and the 1001 Club. Their biographies have been expanded greatly in this last update.
More
1996, David Rockefeller and Karim Aga Khan. Others at Khan's meeting were the Lazards and Buckley's. Lord Rothschild had to excuse himself. See introduction page. Several names have been added to the Pilgrims Society list. One of the more important is/was the 2nd Lord Lamington, who lived from 1860 to 1940. He was a friend of Pilgrims Society member Lord Curzon and worked under the 3rd Marquess of Salisbury (the Cecil of the Round Table). He became governor of Bombay in 1903, followed by an election as the Grand Master of all Scottish Freemasonry in India on July 24, 1904. In 1911, he founded the Persia Society and headed it for many
years. In 1935, he was a main founder of its successor, the Iran Society. One of the first speakers at this society was the Aga Khan of that day, a Freemason, Privy Councilor, and a very close associate of the British ruling families. The Aga Khans are descendent from the prophet Muhammed, the Assassin families (who worked with the earlier-mentioned Knights Templar), and some ancient Zoroastrian Persian families. The history of the Khans is described in the 1001 Club membership list, as Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan used to be a member.
Just another couple of hints that bloodlines seem to matter. Take a look at the last update and see how Merovingian societies, Templar societies, and the Scottish Rite are all represented in the Pilgrims.
The Pilgrims Society: Skull & Bones and Templar bloodlines
February 15, 2006
a.. It's finally time to add Skull & Bones to the list of organizations the Pilgrims Society recruits the founders and-or leaders of. Why? As you might have seen on the introduction page, I added Daniel Coit Gilman to the Pilgrims Society, which makes all 4 founders of the different Carnegie institutes members of this very high level Anglo-American discussion and dining group. His name appeared on a 1903 Pilgrims list. I had been looking for the membership of this person in the past, because Gilman, together with William Huntington Russell, incorporated Skull & Bones into the Russell Trust some 50 years earlier.
William Howard Taft, a founder of Skull & Bones together with the earlier-mentioned Russell, had already been identified as a member of the Pilgrims, just as his son son Henry (S&B 1880). Francis F. Randolph, a former treasurer of the Russell Trust Association, has been named as a member of the Pilgrims Society by researcher Charles Savoie. At the moment, more than a dozen Pilgrims Society members have been identified as former members of Skull & Bones. Many other Pilgrims had close relatives in this fraternity.
Of the 1903 list I only looked up about a dozen random names. Coincidentally, besides Gilman, two of them turned out to be former members of Skull & Bones. The first one is William Phelps Eno (S&B 1882). The other is Samuel Reading Bertron (S&B 1885). Because of all these names, with many others still left to be found, I think it's reasonable to add Skull & Bones to the following list:
a.. In the above list, and which you can check in the membership list, you can see how the Merovingian and rosicrucian-masonic Templar bloodlines play an important role within the Pilgrims Society. As I have been detailing in the Dragon and Bohemian Grove Symbolism articles, there's no doubt that:
A) Many, if not all initiated bloodline families believe the Knights Templar fled to Scotland, built Rosslyn Chapel, and served as the inspiration for freemasonry. These were the same people who were also involved with the old Druidic system, Enochian Magic, rosicrucianism, the Order of the Garter, and the Dragon Court.
B) Bloodlines play a very important role in many royal and noble families.
C) Many of these bloodline families have dabbled into the occult, mainly seeking contact with 'the other side.'
Why am I bringing this up again? Well, because two members of the dynastic Sinclair family appeared on the 1903 Pilgrims Society list: John J. Sinclair from New York, seemingly a banker (needs more research); and William MacDonald [spelled wrong as 'McDonald' in the Pilgrims list] Sinclair, who was Archdeacon of London since 1889 and a member of the Pilgrims' executive committee. Below you can see the partial bloodline of William M. Sinclair, who likely was not part anymore of the purer 'initiated' family lines Nicholas de Vere, former head of the British Dragon Court, has been talking about. Still, the Sinclair/St. Clair/ Saint Clair (take your pick) family is very interesting in and of itself, so this is a good excuse to briefly discuss it:
The father of George Sinclair isn't readily available, but what is known is that he was raised in the Caithness family home.
Many researchers have already spoken about it, but I guess you have to see it with your own eyes. It's quite amazing how a relatively small group of influential families keeps interbreeding which each other over the centuries. Add to this the obvious Druidic, templar, rosicrucian, masonic, and enochian magic themes and pieces start falling together, but as usual not in favor of the conventional theories that nothing is connected. In this case, with a bit of additional checking, you can clearly see how the Templar practices (overlap with all of the above practices) of mainland Europe seemingly were also part of families that had already migrated to the British Isles. Historians should be able to dig up plenty of material. What is striking, is that only one relatively recent Sinclair has been a member of the Order of Thistle (the Scottish equivalent of the Order of the Garter), while quite a number of Sinclairs have been made Privy Councilors over the past several centuries.
To stay with the Scottish theme: Sir John Sinclair, 1st Baron Pentland, married Lady Marjorie Adeline Gordon in 1904, daughter of the 7th Earl of Aberdeen (the later 1st Marquess of Aberdeen and Temair). This is a descendent from another influential Scottish family, the Gordons, which rose to prominence in the 12th century. This person appeared on the 1903 Pilgrims Society membership list. Another interesting name that appeared on the 1903 list is Sir Ewen Cameron. He might have been a relative of the infamous dr. Ewen Cameron of MK-ULTRA, who also came from an upper class Scottish family. In earlier times, the influential Cameron clan, like the Gordons, had intermarried with the Macdonalds. This is just a small example, because many of these families have intermarried with each other at some point or another.
This is not to say that all these families are involved with the occult. According to Nicholas de Vere, even Queen Elizabeth I was kept away from a lot of information, simply because the blood wasn't pure enough. Whether this is true or not I cannot say, but some families seem to find it necessary to keep intermarrying over the centuries, possibly millennia. According to Icke (in 1999), this genetic structure is maintained to allow a specific reptile consciousness from the lower astral to have maximum influence over some of these individuals. He is not the only one. Absurd, Nicholas de Vere claims (in 2000); it's only done to maintain the Dragon genes. This gives his Archdruid-Elven race paranormal abilities that other people don't have. It comes in handy during the royal witchcraft rituals... I guess it's a strange world either way.
There's much more to this, but we'll leave it at that for now. Just writing some of my thoughts down. Personally, I think that all the different conspiracy topics fit much better together than most people think. Researchers make mistakes and often draw wrong conclusions, but as far as I can see, most are sincere (and certainly not crazy). UFOs, extraterrestrials, interdimensials, the paranormal, alternative science, human history, elitist bloodlines, globalization, secret societies, black programs, underground bases, etc.; if you just open your mind, don't pay attention to the average person's opinion, and study for a long time before eliminating pieces of information, you'll see all these subjects come together to an amazing degree. Some areas are undoubtedly wrong, but if it's all made up, you'd guess pieces wouldn't fit. And I don't see that. With most subjects, the pieces continually fit, without forcing anything.
This update was made possible by the person owning this site. The names mentioned in this piece haven't been added to the Pilgrims membership list yet.

Subject: The Global-Governance Deception
A recent conversation with one of my associates, a fellow watcher of this process, brought home to me the fact that there are multiple strains of the “global governance” process operating almost independently of one another. If one effort stalls, or meets with opposition, another takes its place.
THE GLOBAL-GOVERNANCE DECEPTION
By Steven Yates
February 12, 2006
Those following my work know that what motivates much of my writing is the conviction that we are in the midst of an ongoing process—a revolution in permanence, one might call it, aimed at transforming every institution and ultimately enslaving individuals. This process aims at erasing America (as I put it in an earlier article). Once, not terribly long ago, it worked its effects in secret. Now, those who know what to look for can see evidence of this process everywhere, operating almost in the open. Its short term goals: regional economic integration and the gradual erosion of national sovereignty. Its long term goal: world government. Its advocates call this “global governance,” of course.
One of the process’s major strategic tools is “free trade” ideology, which pursues global micromanagement behind a rhetoric of democracy, prosperity, and so on. Another is sustainable development (Agenda 21, public-private partnerships, Smart Growth, economic development in “corridors,” the New Urbanism, the Wildlands Project, etc.). Still another is the dumbing down of all state-sponsored education. This has involved the ratcheting down of subjects like history and logic in favor of pure vocationalism, so graduates will have “job skills” or be “lifelong learners” without learning of this country’s founding documents or their historical and philosophical background. These strategic tools are different strands of an integrated package, the goal of which is a totally managed and administered planet.
Those who believe this are still often dismissed as “conspiracy kooks.” These days, it is hard to resist the urge to return the ridicule.
For today, we have the World Wide Web. Most of the evidence for the process I and many others describe is available not merely on conspiracy-focused Web sites but on the advocates’ own home bases on the Web. One can find references to “global governance” everywhere on official sites from that of the United Nations, the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), the Trilateral Commission (TC), or others. Each of these managed-trade abominations, from NAFTA forward, has a site devoted exclusively to it, usually with the complete text of the document. The entire text of Agenda 21 is on the United Nations web site.
And speaking of the UN, the organization’s self-conception as an incipient world government ought to be considered fully out in the open, with the UN Development Programme just unveiled at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. This could well go down as the biggest bribe in history: $7 trillion unlocked to “solve the world’s problems at a stroke,” under the condition that the nations of the world will assent to the “admission that the nation-state is an old-fashioned concept that has no role to play in a modern globalised world …”
A conspiracy, by definition, is hidden from you. It involves relatively small groups of persons working against your best interests (oftentimes employing illegal means) without your knowledge. I have occasionally encountered the criticism that if “conspiracy theories” were really true, none of us could know about them.
The “global governance” folks aren’t hiding! So where’s the conspiracy?!
Perhaps the “global governance” folks are counting on most Americans today, mostly brain-dead products of dumbed-down government schools, being more interested in the Superbowl or the next installment of Survivor. Or as too busy-busy-busy working the two or three jobs necessary to survive in today’s economy to pay attention to these larger issues that don’t affect them directly and immediately. Most Americans either won’t or can’t make the time to learn the truth.
Thus this process of permanent transformation or revolution—its origins actually traceable to the 1700s (House of Rothschild, Bavarian Illuminati, Freemasonry, etc.; Rousseau’s social philosophy for revolutionist foot soldiers not in the inner circles)—was able to emerge gradually in the 1970s and go into overdrive during the noxious 1990s.
The 1970s gave us Zbigniew Brzezinsky’s Between Two Ages: America’s Role in the Technetronic Era. This book proposed—in surprisingly readable language—the specific “economic integration” strategy that the Trilateralists would begin putting into motion and which would emerge as NAFTA. It described the nation-state (i.e., our nation-state) as obsolete. The Trilateralists were soon joined by the heavily subsidized (Rockefeller and Ford Foundations, etc.) environmental movements, scaring us to death with prospects ranging from population growth to global warming.
The 1990s were a disaster by any measure! That decade gave us: political correctness, Agenda 21, Bill Clinton (Rhodes Scholar, CFR), Hillary Clinton, the President’s Council on Sustainable Development, the World Business Council on Sustainable Development, and The Prince of Wales International Business Leaders Forum (Prince Charles—as Joan Veon has ably documented—has been at least since 1990 a prime mover in the sustainable development movement). It gave us NAFTA, the Summit of the Americas (which started the push for a Free Trade Area of the Americas—FTAA), the World Trade Organization (WTO), and the ongoing destruction of America’s middle class via “downsizing” and “outsourcing.” It gave us School-To-Work and Workforce Investment movements in government-sponsored schools—piggybacking on earlier disasters such as Mastery Learning and Outcome-Based Education. (These are all disasters to us, of course, who believe that schools should graduate educated citizens able and willing to find their own way in the world, not barely literate subjects trained only for obedient “service sector” work in a public-private partnership). [See video "Liberty or Sustainable Development"]
So far, the 2000 decade has given us: George W. Bush’s brand of Neocon pseudo-conservatism stemming from its Project for a New American Century, illegal immigration gone completely out of control with proposed “guest worker” programs, Homeland Security, The USA Patriot Act, No Child Left Behind, the (Orwellian) New Freedom Initiative, CAFTA, the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP), the CFR’s Building a North American Community, Kelo v. New London, Conn., an “official” federal debt about to surpass $8.2 trillion, one increasingly disastrous foreign war (Iraq) and a potentially much more destructive one looming on the horizon (Iran). It should be clear who is benefiting, in one way or another, from each of these: the “global governance” elites, who know only power, money, and Hegelian dialectic (manufacture a crisis, which will provoke a predictable reaction, allowing a specific response—the power grab that was wanted all along).
The power elite may use a rhetoric of peace. History, though, reveals its preference for wars. Wars destabilize. They cause debt, death, destruction, and demoralization. Populations will turn to anyone who promises relief from their suffering. It’s all quite visible, for those not too brain damaged from their government school to connect the dots.
So I ask again, where’s the conspiracy?!
To be sure, there are people who are alert, and aware that something is going on. Maybe more than we think. This is why street protests erupt outside every WTO Summit (Seattle 1999, Cancun 2003, Hong Kong 2005). This is why Argentinian authorities had to contain rioters not far from the Summit of the Americas meeting last November. The peoples of the world do not want “free trade.” They do not want “globalization” in its present form. They know it isn’t working to their advantage. It is only widening the gulf between rich and poor in their countries, and in fact is widening this gulf the world over. “Globalization” is enabling multinational corporations to dictate the fate of entire countries working in partnership with our government and those countries’ puppet regimes. The latter either cooperate or are violently overthrown (see John Perkins, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man).
A recent conversation with one of my associates, a fellow watcher of this process, brought home to me the fact that there are multiple strains of the “global governance” process operating almost independently of one another. If one effort stalls, or meets with opposition, another takes its place. The overall process thus goes forward. For example, at present the FTAA is stuck in neutral. At least three South American governments—Venezuela, Bolivia and Argentina—want nothing to do with it. So what happens? The power elite has turned its attention to the SPP, signed by President Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox and outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin on March 23 last year.
This boneheaded scheme would slowly integrate the three NAFTA nations under an assemblage of unelected regional bureaucracies and public-private partnerships. The official line is that the SPP will build a prosperous ‘North America the Beautiful,’ while protecting the U.S., Canada and Mexico all three from terrorism. The likely goal: a North American Union, modeled on the European Union. Those who pay attention to such things are already seeing in controlled city newspapers more and more uses of the phrase North America as if it referred to a supranational, regional entity, as opposed to a continent.
So other things being equal, if you want to see our future look at the European Union. One sees falling birthrates among native Europeans (documented by Patrick J. Buchanan in Death of the West), a large unassimilated Muslim minority—their legacy of out-of-control immigration—and near-depression levels of unemployment. The latter two combined to yield the riots that torched suburbs around Paris and elsewhere in France last November. In other words, the EU is dysfunctional. Europe is dying!
Continue with “economic integration” on this side of the Atlantic, combine it with our illegal immigrant problem, and we will begin circling the same drain—if our globalized financial system doesn’t crash and burn first.
The power elite—who as multibillionaires don’t have to live with the carnage their policies bring about—are nevertheless pedaling as fast as they can, working on so many deals one person cannot keep track of them all. Take for example a “free trade” accord I hadn’t even heard of until the other day: AFTA—the Andean Free Trade Agreement. This one would pull Colombia, Ecuador and Peru into a NAFTA/CAFTA-style arrangement with the U.S. The U.S. and Peru have already signed a deal; the idea is to bring in Colombia and Ecuador.
Uh, wait a second! The regime in charge of Colombia deals with labor union activists not with negotiation but by shooting them. Over 2,100 have been shot since 1991. Some people think unions are a bad idea. Be that as it may, when a government simply murders pro-union activists, I think there’s a problem. When the powers-that-be behind our government want to maneuver us into a “free trade” deal with that government, there’s a bigger problem!
The situation is even worse. When Peruvian President Alejandro Toledo wanted stronger labor provisions written into AFTA, the effort was rejected out of hand by our Republican Congressman in charge of trade policy, Bill Thomas (R-CA). Which means that our Republican-controlled Congress is willing to enter into trade deals with governments that not only do not respect workers’ rights under any rule of law, they do not respect workers’ lives.
Small wonder the peoples of the world would like to reject “globalization.” Nations like Venezuela and Bolivia are being pushed “leftward” by the policies of a power elite they associate with American predatory capitalism. It’s really a form of radical corporatism—or, less politely, fascism, in which Big Business and Big Government merge as policymakers (every public-private partnership does this in miniature). Many peoples of the world now recognize the truth about “free trade”: multinational corporate predators automatically move operations to where labor is cheapest and most easily controlled—with deadly force, if necessary—destroying their native economies and ways of life for the benefit of a powerful, immensely wealthy few.
Americans ought to recognize this, too. This is why, after all, so many Americans now must work at “service sector” flunky jobs—flipping burgers, answering phones in call-center cubicles, shuffling papers, etc. Very little is actually made (i.e., manufactured) in America anymore. A healthy advanced economy manufactures what it needs, and is self-sufficient, not dependent on foreigners. The massive shift to “services” we saw in the noxious 1990s is a sign of what William Norman Grigg called America’s Engineered Decline.
The first thing Americans must do is “unplug” from the government school monopoly and from a mainstream media controlled by five or six megaconglomerates. If they do not, then America will continue gradually disappearing, just as European nations are gradually disappearing. America will be replaced by an enlarging edifice of unelected globalist bureaucrats.
Here is the “global governance deception” in a nutshell. Our policymakers, often backed up by academic charlatans and controlled-media shills (Thomas L. Friedman comes to mind), talk and act as if “globalization” was a natural process, resulting only from changing technology. What is being rammed down our throats is manifestly is not a natural process. It is being orchestrated and micromanaged for the benefit of an elite that knows no national loyalties and worships money and power as surrogates for God. (I mean that literally: I think there is a religious sensibility at work here in a demonic sort of way.)
There could be a normal (i.e., voluntary, uncoerced) globalization process, based on the Internet, other new information technology and global communications. Except on a comparatively very small scale, that’s not what’s happening!
Just ask yourself: why do we need multi-thousand-page “free trade” deals to have free trade? You can do business online, by putting up your Web site and offering your product or service to buyers anywhere in the world, with no trade deals at all!
If my associates and I want to start an online bookstore, for example, we don’t need NAFTA to sell books to Mexicans, we don’t need CAFTA to sell them to El Salvadorans, and we don’t need AFTA to sell to Peruvians. All we need are our products ‘out there’ in cyberspace, willing buyers in those countries, and for governments to keep their grubby paws off. And we need large corporations not to resent the competition so much they set out to destroy us by lobbying those governments for silly (but expensive) regulations.
“Free trade” deals are the product of economic parasitism, not a sincere desire for freedom and prosperity for all!
The elite-driven process has already backfired in the Middle East. The power elite’s need for control (its preferred currency is fiat dollars, after all) has led the U.S. into an unnecessary war that had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks—a war planned at least a full year earlier (go here). Now the U.S. is the most hated nation in the region (with the possible exception of Israel). It could backfire in our own hemisphere, if South American governments and peoples come to associate “globalization” or “global governance” with the U.S. I doubt any of these peoples are inherently violent.
Most just want to be left alone and not have their lives turned upside down by forces they don’t understand and can’t contain. But when people think all peaceful options are exhausted and their backs are against a wall, they will eventually turn to violence. With our open borders policy, some just may show up in American cities and pose a terror threat. They won’t go after David Rockefeller. They don’t know who he is. They won’t go after Henry Kissinger. Their bombs will kill and maim ordinary Americans, like you and me.
There’s nothing more dangerous than people who believe they have nothing to lose. That is the kind of world the “global governance” deception is likely to give us.

Openly Attacking American Sovereignty (Excerpt)
by Steven Yates
April 17, 2006
Globalists are now openly revealing their true goal of submerging the United States in a world government.
Those who know what to look for these days should have no trouble recognizing the reality of an ongoing, behind-the-scenes effort to destroy the sovereignty of this country. As the process has accelerated during the past 12 years (the NAFTA era), we sometimes find open admissions by the archglobalists themselves.
In his book Memoirs, published in 2002, David Rockefeller, Sr. made the following remarks, startling in their very frankness: "For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure -- one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it."
"Rethinking" National Sovereignty
It is against this background that we should read an article published in the Taiwan-based Taipei Times on February 21 entitled "State Sovereignty Must Be Altered in a Globalized Era." Just as David Rockefeller directed the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) for years, the new article's author, Richard Haass, is the organization's president. The CFR, often portrayed as just another "think tank," has long been one of the chief architects of the "more integrated global political and economic structure" Rockefeller spoke of. Progressive regionalization has proven to be its most workable method. Last year the CFR published Building a North American Community, which openly called for dissolving the borders between Canada, the United States, and Mexico and establishing "regional governance."
In the recent article, Haass concludes that "the time has come to rethink the notion" of national sovereignty. He calls for "new mechanisms … for regional and global governance that include actors other than states." These include transnational corporations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). "States," he said, "must be prepared to cede some sovereignty to world bodies if the international system is to function. This is already taking place in the trade realm." In referring to actions taking place in the trade realm, of course, he means primarily those taking place at the World Trade Organization, but also doubtless those that are being implemented through the so-called free trade agreements: NAFTA, CAFTA, and the (stalled) FTAA.
In his recent article, Haass identifies one of the principles of national sovereignty that must be ceded: "the ability to control what crosses borders in either direction." If even this one principle of sovereignty is ceded, we will no longer be able to call ourselves an autonomous country: we will have to bow to trade-community rules in terms of drug laws (both those that are currently legal as well as illegal), abandon national security efforts and allow others to determine our citizenship requirements because we won't be able to control immigration, give up rules that are intended to keep our foods and beverages safe, and forgo traffic and highway safety because we will not be able to control who is allowed to drive here or the safety of the vehicles they are driving. And this is just a partial list of negatives that will accrue by ceding just one little part of our sovereignty....

Subject: 'Immigration Protests' Cover For Racist Ethnic Cleansing Movement
'Immigration Protests' Cover For Racist Ethnic Cleansing Movement
Atzlan and Mexican Klan groups rejoice at start of 'la reconquista'
Paul Joseph Watson/ March 29 2006
At the height of last year's French riots, Voz de Aztlan leader Ernesto Cienfuegos stated that similar scenes of chaos would be witnessed on the streets of America. As reports of violence begin to filter through, a deliberately fomented race war hiding behind an immigration debate creeps ever closer.
"Today, here in Los Angeles, we are already seeing ominous signs of an impending social explosion that will make the French rebellion by Muslim and immigrant youths seem 'tame' by comparison," said Cienfuegos on November 8.
"All the ingredients are present including a hostile and racist police as in France. In fact, we came close to having major riots on three separate occasions just this year alone."
As the mainstream controlled media reports the immigration protests as peaceful and affords them a wealth of credence and credibility, ignoring the plethora of foreign flags compared to US flags, turn to Mexican TV news stations and you will encounter radical proselytizing about enacting the brutal plan on the invasion and takeover of the southern American states.
Aztlan's goal, known as la reconquista, is to cede and take over the entirety of the southern states by any means necessary and impose a Communist militant dictatorship. President Bush's blanket amnesty program goes a long way to helping the extremists achieve their aim.
Despite the fact that the majority of documented Hispanics oppose illegal immigration, as do the majority of Americans, Aztlan and La Raca race hate groups have become the self-appointed voice for a separatist movement that threatens a violent overthrow of the Constitutional system and a barbaric program of ethnic cleansing. This is held up by the media as 'diversity' and to vociferously oppose it is scorned as racism.
Aztlan and Mecha groups advocate killing all whites and blacks and driving them out of the southern states by means of brutal ethnic cleansing. Flags and placards carried at marches depict white people having their heads cut off, as seen in the picture below.
Those that protest such groups are then attacked by the establishment media and labeled as racists, despite the fact that the Plan of San Diego, a rallying cry for the Hispanic Klan groups, advocates total eradication of any race but Hispanics.
Mecha's own slogan reads, "For the race everything. For those outside the race, nothing."
TV stations owned by rich white industrialists erect giant billboards in Los Angeles claiming the city belongs to Mexico, as seen below.
Mainstream Hispanics who love America abhor the virulent racism that the Mexican Klan groups embrace.
And who bankrolls these pocket radicals? Billionaire tax-exempt foundations and NGO's owned by white men. Organizations like the Ford Foundation, groups who are zealous in their quest to eliminate the middle class and destroy America, turning it into a cashless society, compact city, surveillance control grid where only two tiers of society exist - the elite and the poor slaves.
The Atzlan website today carries the following comments.
"If the racist "Sensenbrenner Legislation" passes the US Senate, there is no doubt that a massive civil disobedience movement will emerge. Eventually labor union power can merge with the immigrant civil rights and "Immigrant Sanctuary" movements to enable us to either form a new political party or to do heavy duty reforming of the existing Democratic Party. The next and final steps would follow and that is to elect our own governors of all the states within Aztlan."
Here is the open call for violent separatism and the overthrow of existing state government structures.
A sizeable proportion of the secular humanist Westerners who like to think of themselves as part of the establishment, when in reality they are unwitting tools of the true elite, have bought into the cuddly utopian philosophy that the West is a global village which welcomes all comers and has the enlightened innate ability to homogenize millions of different people of all different colors and creeds into one giant melting pot.
The reality couldn't be further from the truth and last year's images of flaming buses, schools, nurseries, terror and panic in France betray that fact. Protests over changes in employment laws have flared into riots and we are now witnessing similar scenes on the streets of Paris as we saw last November.
The real power behind the clash of civilizations lies with Globalists, in whose interest it is to foment race wars. Their vision of the Western world can best be described as a corporate fascist high tech slave plantation, with all the proles packed into high rise compact cities. The middle class simply won't exist.
Every major minority movement throughout history has been infiltrated and steered by the elite in an attempt to obtain these objectives.
The elite want us to be at each others throats while they dominate over the downtrodden and befuddled warring tribes. Race is the ultimate touchstone hot button issue and the Globalists have enacted policies of rampant uncontrolled immigration in order to force hostile cultures to intermingle. The outcome is always tribal warfare, as we saw in Bosnia and Kosovo.
The Mexican Klan must be opposed at every turn if we are to prevent America being fed to the dogs of racial purity and ethnic cleansing, an ideology that was supposedly defeated in 1940's Germany but is openly called for today while the groups carrying it out are protected and funded by the establishment.
