New World Order a Conspiracy

10 Insane Conspiracy Theories about the New World Order

ANDREW HANDLEY MARCH 24, 2014

The New World Order, or NWO, is one of the most well-known conspiracy theories in mod- ern history, right up there with the faked moon landings. In fact, there are those who be- lieve that the NWO orchestrated the fake landings to reinforce their control over the popu- lation. Like a handful of cookie crumbs, the NWO has a way of slipping into the cracks be- hind every other far-fetched theory, and like entropy, the theories about them only get big- ger with time. Just keep in mind that as plausible as these theories sound, they are, unfor- tunately, absolutely insane.

10 The Ten Kings Prophecy

Conspiracy theories that begin with the Bible are nothing new, but according to some people, the New World Order was very specifically predicted in the Book of Revelation. The Ten Kings Prophecy is the theory that 10 nations will rise to power and create a new government. The “prophecy” usual- ly quoted for this comes from Revelation 17:12, which reads “And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.”

3

The idea of a small group of people ruling the world is entirely what the NWO is about, so it’s no wonder that this is seen as a direct prediction of a new world order. And if you study a prediction enough, you’ll start to see it everywhere. The problem, of course, is that nobody can actually agree on where it’s happening.

There are those who think that the Club of Rome is the seat of the NWO, because they published a paper in 1973 that recommended splitting the world into 10 regions. If you crawl even deeper into the fog, you find others touting the G8 as the group of 10 kings from Revelation. Put that calculator away—there are only eight world leaders in the G8, but proponents of the theory predict that it will one day expand to include 10 core nations, signalling the start of Armageddon and, probably, the end of life as we know it.

9 Population Control

In order to maintain its iron grip over the world, the NWO would have to trim off some of the excess population. According to conspiracy theorists, that means killing most of the planet and leav- ing about two billion people to continue the human race. These survivors would obviously be the best of the best—scientists, engineers, writers, and politicians—and they would live underground in cities connected by maglev trains. Alternatively, they’ll use alien technology to build bases on the Moon.

Exactly how the New World Order will trim down the population is a point of contention among the- orists. Some people believe that a virus bioengineered by the NWO will wipe out the majority of the population, while others hold firm that Obama care is slowly poisoning people with vaccines. Other purported methods range from devastating drone strikes to educating people about abortion.

8 Silent Sound Spread Spectrum

One big theory about the NWO is that they use mind control on the general population. While that’s a constant in almost every conspiracy theory, NWO believers think that, when the time comes, the world leaders will flip a switch and instantly force the population into submission. If such a technolo- gy were that important to achieving their totalitarian goals, they would obviously try to test it first.

Silent sound spread spectrum (SSSS) is the term most commonly used, although it’s also called “voice to skull” (V2K) technology. It’s almost a cliche these days when a person complains that the government is putting voices in their heads, but they’re still popping up all over the place. One ex- ample that’s always repeated on conspiracy theory websites is that the US military used SSSS on Ira- soldiers, causing them to surrender immediately.

The idea of setting up a system to send microwave signals into the mind of every American—not to mention the rest of the world—is ludicrous at best, but this theory is a cornerstone of the New World Order curriculum.

7 Blueprints In Literature

In 1928, H.G. Wells published a book called The Open Conspiracy: Blue Prints for a World Revolution. In the book, he lays out a recipe for establishing a new world order that will last for generations, all of which will be run by the “Atlantic” elite. In 1940, he followed it up with the aptly named The New World Order.

Most people are familiar with H.G. Wells from books like The Time Machine and War of the Worlds, but his guidelines for the New World Order were anything but fiction. As an outspoken socialist, he believed that a world government was inevitable and that widespread was the proper course for humanity.

True to form, conspiracy theorists are quick to assume that his NWO literature is “required reading” for the world elite. They see it not necessarily as a prediction but as the impetus that brought the “current” New World Order into existence in the first place.

The conspiracy theory of the Majestic 12 goes something like this: In the 1940s, President Tru- man commissioned a secret committee of scientists and government employees to keep track of the UFOs that were plaguing America’s skies. The organization, Majestic 12, was kept top secret, but over the years, various documents have surfaced that seem to “prove” their existence. That’s not what this is about.

According to conspiracy theorists, the government created the entire thing as a hoax in order to keep the public’s attention away from the real threat: aliens in the government. The NWO isn’t headed by the elite of humanity, per se—it’s being planned by aliens who already have humanity’s elite under their control. Majestic 12 is a convoluted mess of a conspiracy within a conspiracy, and while we’re all concerned about it, the aliens have been propelling human look-alikes to powerful government positions and giving us AIDS.

5 The Bohemian Grove

The Bohemian Grove is a very real thing. It’s a campground in Sonoma County, California that’s owned by the Bohemian Club, a grouping of the world’s leaders, artists, and captains of industry that boasts several thousand members. Every year, these men get together and do . . . something. Ac- cording to one writer who sneaked in, the retreat involves a lot of drinking and peeing in bushes. In other words, it’s like a summer camp for powerful people.

But according to the people who haven’t been there, the Bohemian Grove is a dark place of pagan rituals and devil worship, a birthing ground for devious plans to initiate the New World Order. It’s also here that they ritually burn a human in effigy while wearing robes and chanting a prayer to Mo- loch. Reagan, the Bushes, and Henry Kissinger are reported to be members, to name a few. Nixon famously (and insensitively) called it “the most faggy godd—ed thing you could ever imagine.”

8

4The Geronimo Skull

Since many members of the Bohemian Club are also members of Yale’s prestigious Skull and Bones club, the theft of Geronimo’s skull in 1918 is worth mentioning. According to the Apache warlord’s descendants who sued Yale University in 2009, Prescott Bush (George W.’s grandfather) and a group of Skull and Bones members raided Geronimo’s grave and made off with his skull and his left hand. They placed the skull in a glass case in the secretive tomb where the society holds their meetings. Why would they want to do that? And what does it have to do with the New World Order? The his- tory of Skull and Bones is complex, but it is believed to have originated in Germany in the 1800s. Be- cause of that origin, the Skull and Bones is closely connected to the Bavarian Illuminati, which gives it inextricable ties to the development of a one-government world.

As for Geronimo’s skull, Prescott Bush once served as a volunteer at Fort Sill, where Geronimo was buried, and heard a story that the warrior had been blessed with unnatural power. Probably wanting to preserve a relic of that power, the Skull and Bones society appropriated the skull for their own use. It wouldn’t be the first time they tried to get a famous skull.

3 The Surveillance-Industrial Complex

With either Edward Snowden or the NSA showing up in the news on an almost daily basis, this one’s a conspiracy theorist freebie. The surveillance-industrial complex, usually just called “mass surveil- lance,” is a widespread plan to keep tabs on the world’s population. There are plenty of countries that do implement relatively widespread surveillance—the Soviet Union had a network of spies, America has the NSA and PRISM, and China has their Golden Shield. The stated goal of these pro- grams is usually what you’d expect, like thwarting terrorism or cracking down on child pornography.

But to NWO conspiracy theorists, their motivations are much, much darker. While aliens are usually the most agreed-upon scapegoat for why the government wants to watch you brush your teeth, it’s important not to forget about dark chakras, mirror worlds, and Satan.

2 Chem trail Super-Weapons

If you look up into the sky on a clear blue day, you might catch a glimpse of an unusual checkerboard pattern of thin clouds that look almost—but not quite—like airplane contrails. These are chem trails, which the government sprays over the population to spread mind-controlling chemicals, biological weapons, or weather-altering super-technology, depending on whom you ask.

The weather control conspiracy is the most widespread theory about chem trails. The theory states that the chemicals spewing out of government planes are designed to create “ionospheric disrup- tion” that can be used to manipulate weather patterns. The results include everything from Obama engineering Hurricane Sandy to creating warming patterns that will melt the Arctic ice and cover the Earth in a blanket of methane. Of course, who would be behind this but our favourite shadowy cabal of elite puppet masters?

11

1 Post humans And The Technological Singularity

The inevitable goal of the New World Order is to create a new breed of super humans called post humans. This isn’t a human design—it’s what the aliens want. In fact, aliens have been credited with every advancement in human evolution since the dawn of civilization.

In the future, that’s going to come about in two ways. The first will be the initial birth of post hu- mans in the inner circle of NWO leaders. They’ll be so advanced that regular humans like us will think of them as gods. The second is going to be a rapid advancement of technology that eventually culminates in artificial intelligence and a technological singularity, which is the point where AI over- takes human intelligence. These two developments will ensure that the New World Order is capable of controlling every aspect of life. The lower classes will be exterminated and replaced with robots, and humanity will finally reach its shining apex—just as the aliens have always planned.

The reverse side of the Great Seal of the United States (1776). The Latin phrase "novus ordo seclorum", appearing on the reverse side of the Great Seal since 1782 and on the back of the U.S. one-dollar bill since 1935, translates to "New Order of the Ages"[1] and alludes to the beginning of an era where the United States of America is an independent nation-state; conspiracy theorists claim [2] this is an allusion to the "New World Order".

As a conspiracy theory, the term New World Order or NWO refers to the [3][4][5][6][7] emergence of a totalitarian world government.

The common theme in conspiracy theories about a New World Order is that a secretive power elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring to eventually rule the world through an authoritarian world government—which will re- place sovereign nation-states—and an all- encompass- ing propaganda whose ideology hails the establishment of the New World Or- der as the culmination of history's progress. Significant occurrences in politics and finance are speculated to be orchestrated by an unduly influen- tial cabal that operates through many front organizations.

16

Numerous historical and current events are seen as steps in an ongoing plot to achieve world domination through secret political gatherings and decision- [3][4][5][6][7] making processes.

Before the early 1990s, New World Order conspiracism was limited to two American countercultures, primarily the militantly anti-government right, and secondarily that part of fundamentalist Christianity concerned with the end- time emergence of the Antichrist.[8] Skeptics such as Michael Barkun and Chip Berlet observed that right-wing populist conspiracy theories about a New World Order had not only been embraced by many seekers of stigmatized knowledge but had seeped into popular culture, thereby inaugurating a period during the late 20th and early 21st centuries in the United States where people were actively preparing for apocalyptic millenarian scenarios.[4][6] Those politi- cal scientists were concerned that mass hysteria could have what they judged to be devastating effects on American political life, ranging from wide- [4][6][9] spread political alienation to escalating lone-wolf terrorism.

1 History of the term

During the 20th century, many politicians, such as Woodrow Wil- son and Winston Churchill, used the term "new world order" to refer to a new period of history characterized by a dramatic change in world political thought and the balance of power after World War I and World War II. They all saw the period as an opportunity to implement idealistic proposals for global govern- ance in the sense of new collective efforts to address worldwide problems that go beyond the capacity of individual nation-states to solve, while always re- specting the right of nations to self-determination. These proposals led to the creation of international organizations (such as the UN and NATO), and inter- national regimes (such as the Bretton Woods system and the General Agree- ment on Tariffs and Trade (GATT)), which were calculated both to maintain a balance of power in favor of the United States and to regularize cooperation between nations, in order to achieve a peaceful phase of capitalism. These creations in particular and liberal internationalism in general, however, were regularly criticized and opposed by American ultraconservative business na- [10] tionalists from the 1930s on.

18

Progressives welcomed these new international organizations and regimes in the aftermath of the two World Wars, but argued that they suffered from a democratic deficit and were therefore inadequate not only to prevent an- other global war but to foster global justice. The United Nations was designed in 1945 by US bankers and State Department planners, and was always intend- ed to remain a free association of sovereign nation-states, not a transition to democratic world government. Thus, activists around the globe formed a world [11] federalist movement, hoping in vain to create a "real" new world order.

British writer and futurist H. G. Wells went further than progressives in the 1940s, by appropriating and redefining the term "new world order" as a syno- nym for the establishment of a technocratic world state and planned econo- my.[12] Despite the popularity of his ideas in some state socialist circles, Wells failed to exert a deeper and more lasting influence because he was unable to concentrate his energies on a direct appeal to the intelligentsias who would [13] ultimately have to coordinate a Wellsian new world order.

During the Red Scare of 1947–1957, agitators of the American secular and Christian right, influenced by the work of Canadian conspiracy theo- rist , increasingly embraced and spread unfounded fears of Freemasons, Illuminati and Jews being the driving force behind an "international communist conspiracy". The threat of "Godless communism", in the form of a state atheistic and bureaucratic collectivist world govern- ment, demonized as the "Red Menace", therefore became the focus of apocalyptic millenarian conspiracism. The Red Scare came to shape one of the core ideas of the political right in the United States, which is that liberals and progressives, with their welfare-state policies and interna- tional cooperation programs such as foreign aid, supposedly contribute to a gradual process of collectivism that will inevitably lead to nations being re- [14] placed with a communist one-world government.

19

Right-wing populist advocacy groups with a producerist world-view, such as the John Birch Society, disseminated a multitude of conspiracy theories in the 1960s claiming that the governments of both the United States and the Soviet Union were controlled by a cabal of corporate internationalists, greedy bank- ers and corrupt politicians who were intent on using the U.N. as the vehicle to create a "One World Government". This right-wing anti-globalist conspiracism fuelled the Bircher campaign for US withdrawal from the UN. American writer Mary M. Davison, in her 1966 booklet The Profound Revolution, traced the al- leged New World Order conspiracy to the creation of the US Federal Reserve in 1913 by international bankers, who she claimed later formed the Council on Foreign Relations in 1921 as a shadow government. At the time the booklet was published, "international bankers" would have been interpreted by many readers as a reference to a postulated "international Jewish banking conspira- [14] cy" masterminded by the Rothschilds.

Claiming that the term "New World Order" is used by a secretive elite dedicat- ed to the destruction of all national sovereignties, American writer Gary Al- len—in his books None Dare Call It Conspiracy (1971), Rockefeller: Campaign- ing for the New World Order (1974), and Say "No!" to the New World Or- der (1987)—articulated the anti-globalist theme of much current right-wing populist conspiracism in the US. Thus, after the fall of communism in the early 1990s, the main demonized scapegoat of the American far right shifted seam- lessly from crypto-communists, who plotted on behalf of the Red Menace, to globalists, who plot on behalf of the New World Order. The relatively painless nature of the shift was due to growing right-wing populist opposition to corpo- rate internationalism, but also in part to the basic underlying apocalyptic mil- lenarian paradigm, which fed the Cold War and the witch-hunts of [14] the McCarthy period.

In his speech, Toward a New World Order, delivered on September 11, 1990 during a joint session of the US Congress, President George H. W. Bush described his objectives for post-Cold War global governance in coopera- tion with post-Soviet states. He stated: (NWO Speech)

20

Until now, the world we've known has been a world divided—a world of barbed wire and concrete block, conflict and cold war. Now, we can see a new world coming into view. A world in which there is the very real prospect of a new world order. In the words of Winston Churchill, a "world order" in which "the principles of justice and fair play ... protect the weak against the strong ..." A world where the United Nations, freed from cold war stalemate, is poised to fulfill the historic vision of its founders. A world in which freedom and respect for human rights find a home among all nations.

The New York Times observed that progressives were denouncing this new world order as a rationalization of American imperial ambitions in the Middle East, while conservatives rejected any new security arrangements altogether and fulminated about any possibility of a UN revival.[15] However, Chip Berlet, an American investigative reporter, specializing in the study of right- wing movements in the US, writes:

When President Bush announced his new foreign policy would help build a New World Order, his phrasing surged through the Christian and secular hard right like an electric shock, since the phrase had been used to represent the dreaded collectivist One World Government for decades. Some Christians saw Bush as signaling the End Times betrayal by a world leader. Secular anticom- munists saw a bold attempt to smash US sovereignty and impose a tyrannical [14] collectivist system run by the United Nations.

American televangelist Pat Robertson, with his 1991 best-selling book The New World Order, became the most prominent Christian popularizer of conspiracy theories about recent American history. He describes a scenario where Wall Street, the Federal Reserve System, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bilderberg Group and the Trilateral Commission control the flow of events from behind the scenes, nudging people constantly and covertly in the direc- [6] tion of world government for the Antichrist.

21

Observers note that the galvanizing of right-wing populist conspiracy theorists such as Linda Thompson, Mark Koernke and Robert K. Spear into militancy led to the rise of the militia movement, which spread its anti-government ideology through speeches at rallies and meetings, books and videotapes sold at gun shows, shortwave and satellite radio, fax networks and computer bulletin boards.[14] However, it is overnight AM radio shows and viral propaganda on the Internet that have most effectively contributed to their extremist political ideas about the New World Order finding their way into the previously apoliti- cal literature of numerous Kennedy assassinologists, ufologists, lost land theo- rists and, most recently, occultists. From the mid–1990s on, the worldwide ap- peal of those subcultures transmitted New World Order conspiracism like a [6] "mind virus" to a large new audience of seekers of stigmatized knowledge. Hollywood conspiracy-thriller television shows and films also played a role in introducing a vast popular audience to various fringe theories related to New World Order conspiracism—black helicopter, FEMA "concentration camps", etc.—which for decades were previously confined to radical right- wing subcultures. The 1993–2002 television series The X-Files, the 1997 film Conspiracy Theory and the 1998 film The X-Files: Fight the Future are often [6] cited as notable examples.

Following the start of the 21st century, and specifically during the late-2000s financial crisis, many politicians and pundits, such as Gordon Brown[16] and Henry Kissinger,[17] used the term "new world order" in their ad- vocacy for a comprehensive reform of the global financial system and their calls for a "New Bretton Woods" that takes into account emerging mar- kets such as China and India. These declarations had the unintended conse- quence of providing fresh fodder for New World Order conspiracism, which culminated in talk show host Sean Hannity stating on his Fox News Chan- nel program Hannity that the "conspiracy theorists were right".[18] Fox News in general, and its opinion show Glenn Beck in particular, has been repeatedly criticized by progressive media watchdog groups, for not only mainstreaming the New World Order conspiracy theories of the radical right, but possibly agi- [19][20] tating its lone wolves into action.

22

In 2009, American film directors Luke Meyer and Andrew Neel released New World Order, a critically acclaimed documentary film which explores the world of conspiracy theorists, such as American radio host Alex Jones, who are com- mitted to exposing and vigorously opposing what they perceive to be an emerging New World Order.[21] The growing dissemination and popularity of conspiracy theories has also created an alliance between right-wing populist agitators, such as Alex Jones, and hip hop music's left-wing populist rappers, such as KRS-One, Professor Griff of Public Enemy and Immortal Technique, thus illustrating how anti-elitist conspiracism can create unlikely political allies [22] in efforts to oppose the political system.

2 Conspiracy theories

There are numerous systemic conspiracy theories through which the concept of a New World Order is viewed. The following is a list of the major ones in [23] roughly chronological order:

End Time

Since the 19th century, many apocalyptic millennial Christian eschatologists, starting with John Nelson Darby, have predicted a globalist conspiracy to im- pose a tyrannical New World Order as the fulfillment of prophecies about the "end time" in the Bible, specifically in the Book of Ezekiel, the Book of Daniel, the Olivet discourse found in the Synoptic Gospels and the Book of Revela- tion.[24] They claim that people who have made a deal with the Devil to gain wealth and power have become pawns in a supernatural chess game to move humanity into accepting a utopian world government that rests on the spiritual foundations of a syncretic-messianic world religion, which will later reveal itself to be a dystopian world empire that imposes the imperial cult of an “Unholy Trinity” of Satan, the Antichrist and the False Prophet. In many contemporary Christian conspiracy theories, the False Prophet will be either the last pope of the Catholic Church, groomed and installed by an Alta Vendita or Jesuit con- spiracy, a guru from the movement, or even the leader of an elite fundamentalist Christian organization like the Fellowship, while the Anti- christ will be either the President of the European Union, the Secretary- [6][24] General of the United Nations, or even the Caliph of a pan-Islamic state.

23

Some of the most vocal critics of end-time conspiracy theories come from within Christianity.[14] In 1993, historian Bruce Barron wrote a stern rebuke of apocalyptic Christian conspiracism in the Christian Research Journal, when re- viewing Robertson's 1991 book The New World Order.[25] Another critique can be found in historian Gregory S. Camp's 1997 book Selling Fear: Conspiracy Theories and End-Times Paranoia.[3] Religious studies scholar Richard T. Hughes argues that "New World Order" rhetoric libels the Christian faith, since the "New World Order" as defined by Christian conspiracy theorists has no basis in the Bible whatsoever. Furthermore, he argues that not only is this idea unbibli- cal, it is positively anti-biblical and fundamentally anti-Christian, because by misinterpreting key passages in the Book of Revelation, it turns a comforting message about the coming kingdom of God into one of fear, panic and despair in the face of an allegedly approaching one-world government.[24] Progressive Christians, such as preacher-theologian Peter J. Gomes, caution Christian fun- damentalists that a "spirit of fear" can distort scripture and history through dangerously combining biblical literalism, apocalyptic timeta- bles, demonization and oppressive prejudices,[26][27] while Camp warns of the "very real danger that Christians could pick up some extra spiritual baggage" by credulously embracing conspiracy theories.[3] They therefore call on Christians [28][29] who indulge in conspiracism to repent.

Freemasonry

Main article: Masonic conspiracy theories Freemasonry is one of the world's oldest secular fraternal organizations and arose during late 16th–early 17th century Britain. Over the years a number of allegations and conspiracy theories have been directed towards Freemasonry, including the allegation that Freemasons have a hidden political agenda and are conspiring to bring about a New World Order, a world government orga- [14] nized according to Masonic principles and/or governed only by Freemasons.

24

The esoteric nature of Masonic symbolism and rites led to Freemasons first be- ing accused of secretly practicing Satanism in the late 18th century.[14] The orig- inal allegation of a conspiracy within Freemasonry to subvert religions and governments in order to take over the world traces back to Scottish au- thor John Robison, whose reactionary conspiracy theories crossed the Atlantic and influenced outbreaks of Protestant anti-Masonry in the United States dur- ing the 19th century.[14] In the 1890s, French writer Léo Taxil wrote a series of pamphlets and books denouncing Freemasonry and charging their lodges with worshiping Lucifer as the Supreme Being and Great Architect of the Universe. Despite the fact that Taxil admitted that his claims were all a hoax, they were and still are believed and repeated by numerous conspiracy theorists and had a [30] huge influence on subsequent anti-Masonic claims about Freemasonry.

Some conspiracy theorists eventually speculated that some Founding Fathers of the United States, such as George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, were having Masonic sacred geometric designs interwoven into American society, particularly in the Great Seal of the United States, the United States one-dollar bill, the architecture of National Mall landmarks and the streets and highways of Washington, D.C., as part of a master plan to create the first "Masonic gov- [6] ernment" as a model for the coming New World Order.

A Masonic Lodge room Freemasons rebut these claims of a Masonic conspiracy. Freemasonry, which promotes rationalism, places no power in symbols themselves, and it is not a part of its principles to view the drawing of symbols, no matter how large, as an act of consolidating or controlling power.[31] Furthermore, there is no published information establishing the Masonic membership of the men re- [31][32] sponsible for the design of the Great Seal.

25

While conspiracy theorists assert that there are elements of Masonic influence on the Great Seal of the United States, and that these elements were inten- tionally or unintentionally used because the creators were familiar with the symbols,[33] in fact, the all-seeing Eye of Providence and the unfinished pyramid were symbols used as much outside Masonic lodges as within them in the late 18th century, therefore the designers were drawing from common esoteric symbols.[34] The Latin phrase "novus ordo seclorum", appearing on the reverse side of the Great Seal since 1782 and on the back of the one-dollar bill since 1935, translates to "New Order of the Ages",[1] and alludes to the beginning of an era where the United States of America is an independent nation-state; it is [2] often mistranslated by conspiracy theorists as "New World Order".

Although the European continental branch of Freemasonry has organizations that allow political discussion within their Masonic Lodges and a few operate as active political lobbies for secularist causes, as exemplified by the Grand Orient of France, Masonic researcher Trevor W. McKeown argues: The accusation that Freemasonry has a hidden agenda to establish a Masonic government ignores several facts. While agreeing on certain Masonic Land- marks, the many independent and sovereign Grand Lodges act as such, and do not agree on many other points of belief and practice. Also, as can be seen from a survey of famous Freemasons, individual Freemasons hold beliefs that span the spectrum of politics. The term "Masonic government" has no mean- ing since individual Freemasons hold many different opinions on what consti- [35] tutes a good government.

Illuminati

The Order of the Illuminati was an Enlightenment-age secret society founded by university professor Adam Weishaupt on 1 May 1776, in Upper Bavaria, Germany. The movement consisted of advocates of free thought, secularism, liberalism, republicanism, and gender equality, recruited from the German Masonic Lodges, who sought to teach rationalism through mystery schools. In 1785, the order was infiltrated, broken up and suppressed by the government agents of Charles Theodore, Elector of Bavaria, in his preemptive campaign to neutralize the threat of secret societies ever becom- ing hotbeds of conspiracies to overthrow the Bavarian monarchy and its state [36] religion, Roman Catholicism.

26

In the late 18th century, reactionary conspiracy theorists, such as Scottish physicist John Robison and French Jesuit priest Augustin Barruel, began specu- lating that the Illuminati had survived their suppression and become the mas- terminds behind the French Revolution and the Reign of Terror. The Illuminati were accused of being subversives who were attempting to secretly orches- trate a revolutionary wave in Europe and the rest of the world in order to spread the most radical ideas and movements of the Enlightenment—anti- clericalism, anti-monarchism, and anti- patriarchalism—and to create a world noocracy and cult of reason. During the 19th century, fear of an Illuminati con- spiracy was a real concern of the European ruling classes, and their oppressive reactions to this unfounded fear provoked in 1848 the very revolutions they [37] sought to prevent.

During the interwar period of the 20th century, fascist propagandists, such as British revisionist historian Nesta Helen Webster and American socialite Edith Starr Miller, not only popularized the myth of an Illuminati conspiracy but claimed that it was a subversive secret society which served the Jewish elites that supposedly propped up both finance capitalism and Soviet communism in order to divide and rule the world. American evangelist Gerald Burton Win- rod and other conspiracy theorists within the fundamentalist Chris- tian movement in the United States—which emerged in the 1910s as a back- lash against the principles of Enlightenment secular humanism, modernism, and liberalism—became the main channel of dissemination of Illuminati con- spiracy theories in the U.S. Right-wing populists, such as members of the John Birch Society, subsequently began speculating that some collegiate fraternities (Skull and Bones), gentlemen's clubs (Bohemian Club), and think tanks (Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission) of the American upper class are front organizationsof the Illuminati, which they accuse of plotting to [6] create a New World Order through a one-world government.

There is no evidence that the Bavarian Illuminati survived its suppression in [37] 1785.

The Protocols of the Elders of Zion

The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is an anti-Semitic canard, originally pub- lished in Russian in 1903, alleging a Judeo-Masonic conspiracy to achieve world domination. The text purports to be the minutes of the secret meetings of a cabal of Jewish masterminds, which has co-opted Freemasonry and is plot- ting to rule the world on behalf of all Jews because they believe themselves to be the chosen people of God.[38] The Protocols incorporate many of the core conspiracist themes outlined in the Robison and Barruel attacks on the Free- masons, and overlay them with anti-Semitic allegations about anti- Tsarist movements in Russia. The Protocols reflect themes similar to more gen- eral critiques of Enlightenment liberalism by conservative aristocrats who sup- port monarchies and state religions. The interpretation intended by the publi- cation of The Protocols is that if one peels away the layers of the Masonic con- [14] spiracy, past the Illuminati, one finds the rotten Jewish core.

Cover of a 1920 copy of The Jewish Peril

Numerous polemicists, such as Irish journalist Philip Graves in a 1921 article in The Times, and British academic Norman Cohn in his 1967 book Warrant for Genocide, have provenThe Protocols to be both a hoax and a clear case of pla- giarism.

28

There is general agreement that Russian-French writer and political activ- ist Matvei Golovinski fabricated the text for Okhrana, the secret police of the Russian Empire, as a work of counter-revolutionary propaganda prior to the 1905 Russian Revolution, by plagiarizing, almost word for word in some passages, from The Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli and Montesquieu, a 19th-century satire against Napoleon III of France written by French political [39] satirist and Legitimist militant Maurice Joly.

Responsible for feeding many anti-Semitic and anti-Masonic mass hysterias of the 20th century, The Protocols has been influential in the development of some conspiracy theories, including some New World Order theories, and ap- pears repeatedly in certain contemporary conspiracy literature.[6] For example, the authors of the 1982 controversial book The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail concluded that The Protocols was the most persuasive piece of evidence for the existence and activities of the Priory of Sion. They speculated that this secret society was working behind the scenes to establish a theocratic "United States of Europe". Politically and religiously unified through the imperial cult of a Merovingian Great Monarch—supposedly descended from a Jesus blood- line—who occupies both the throne of Europe and the Holy See, this "Holy Eu- ropean Empire" would become the hyper power of the 21st centu- ry.[40] Although the Priory of Sion itself has been exhaustively debunked by journalists and scholars as a hoax,[41]some apocalyptic millenarian Christian es- chatologists who believe The Protocols is authentic became convinced that the Priory of Sion was a fulfillment of prophecies found in the Book of Revela- tion and further proof of an anti-Christian conspiracy of epic proportions sig- [42] naling the imminence of a New World Order.

Skeptics argue that the current gambit of contemporary conspiracy theorists who use The Protocols is to claim that they "really" come from some group other than the Jews, such as fallen angels or alien invaders. Although it is hard to determine whether the conspiracy-minded actually believe this or are simp- ly trying to sanitize a discredited text, skeptics argue that it does not make much difference, since they leave the actual, anti-Semitic text unchanged. The [8] result is to give The Protocols credibility and circulation.

Round Table

During the second half of Britain's "imperial century" between 1815 and 1914, English-born South African businessman, mining magnate and politician Cecil Rhodes advocated the British Empire re-annexing the United States of Ameri- ca and reforming itself into an "Imperial Federation" to bring about a hyper power and lasting world peace. In his first will, written in 1877 at the age of 23, he expressed his wish to fund a secret society (known as the Society of the Elect) that would advance this goal:

To and for the establishment, promotion and development of a Secret Society, the true aim and object whereof shall be for the extension of British rule throughout the world, the perfecting of a system of emigration from the Unit- ed Kingdom, and of colonization by British subjects of all lands where the means of livelihood are attainable by , labor and enterprise, and espe- cially the occupation by British settlers of the entire Continent of Africa, the Holy Land, the Valley of the Euphrates, the Islands of Cyprus and Candia, the whole of South America, the Islands of the Pacific not heretofore possessed by Great Britain, the whole of the Malay Archipelago, the seaboard of China and Japan, the ultimate recovery of the United States of America as an integral part of the British Empire, the inauguration of a system of Colonial representation in the Imperial Parliament which may tend to weld together the disjointed members of the Empire and, finally, the foundation of so great a Power as to [43] render wars impossible, and promote the best interests of humanity.

In 1902, "The New York Times noted that following his 1877 will, Rhodes in 1890 put forth the same ideas, and set forth the goal that his secret society [44] should work towards "gradually absorbing the wealth of the world".

Rhodes also concentrated on the Rhodes scholarship, which had British statesman Alfred Milner as one of its trustees. Established in 1902, the original goal of the trust fund was to foster peace among the great powers by creating a sense of fraternity and a shared world view among future British, American, and German leaders by having enabled them to study for free at the University [43] of Oxford.

30

Milner and British official Lionel George Curtis were the architects of the Round Table movement, a network of organizations promoting closer un- ion between Britain and its self-governing colonies. To this end, Curtis founded the Royal Institute of International Affairs in June 1919 and, with his 1938 book The Commonwealth of God, began advocating for the creation of an im- perial federation that eventually re-annexes the U.S., which would be present- ed to Protestant churches as being the work of the Christian God to elicit their [45] support.

The Commonwealth of Nations was created in 1949 but it would only be a free association of independent states rather than the powerful imperial federation imagined by Rhodes, Milner and Curtis.

The Council on Foreign Relations began in 1917 with a group of New York aca- demics who were asked by President Woodrow Wilson to offer options for the foreign policy of the United States in the interwar period. Originally envi- sioned as a group of American and British scholars and diplomats, some of whom belonging to the Round Table movement, it was a subsequent group of 108 New York financiers, manufacturers and international lawyers organized in June 1918 by Nobel Peace Prize recipient and U.S. secretary of state, Elihu Root, that became the Council on Foreign Relations on 29 July 1921. The first of the council’s projects was a quarterly journal launched in September 1922, [46] called Foreign Affairs.

The Trilateral Commission was founded in July 1973, at the initiative of Ameri- can banker David Rockefeller, who was chairman of the Council on Foreign Re- lations at that time. It is a private organization established to foster closer co- operation among the United States, Europe and Japan. The Trilateral Commis- sion is widely seen as a counterpart to the Council on Foreign Relations.

31

In the 1960s, right-wing populist individuals and groups with a producerist worldview, such as members of the John Birch Society, were the first to combine and spread an ultraconservative business nationalist critique of corporate internationalists networked through think tanks such as the Council on Foreign Relations with a grand conspiracy theory casting them as front organizations for the Round Table of the "Anglo- American Establishment", which are financed by an "international banking ca- bal" that has supposedly been plotting from the late 19th century on to impose an oligarchic new world order through a global financial system. Anti- globalist conspiracy theorists therefore fear that international bankers are planning to eventually subvert the independence of the U.S. by subordinating [47] national sovereignty to a strengthened Bank for International Settlements.

The research findings of historian Carroll Quigley, author of the 1966 book Tragedy and Hope, are taken by both conspiracy theorists of the Ameri- can Old Right (Cleon Skousen) and New Left (Carl Oglesby) to substantiate this view, even though he argued that the Establishment is not involved in a plot to implement a one-world government but rather British and Ameri- can benevolent imperialism driven by the mutual interests of economic elites in the United Kingdom and the United States. Quigley also argued that, alt- hough the Round Table still exists today, its position in influencing the policies of world leaders has been much reduced from its heyday during World War I and slowly waned after the end of World War II and the Suez Crisis. Today the Round Table is largely a ginger group, designed to consider and gradually influ- ence the policies of the Commonwealth of Nations, but faces strong opposi- tion. Furthermore, in American society after 1965, the problem, according to [47] Quigley, was that no elite was in charge and acting responsibly. Larry McDonald, the 2nd president of the John Birch Society and a conservative Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives who repre- sented the 7th congressional district of Georgia, wrote a foreword for Allen's 1976 book The Rockefeller File, wherein he stated: The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world govern- ment, combining super-capitalism and Communism under the same tent, all under their control ... Do I mean conspiracy? Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly [48] evil in intent.

32

In his 2002 autobiography Memoirs, Rockefeller wrote: For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents ... to attack the Rockefel- ler family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American polit- ical and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my fami- ly and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure—one world, [49] if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.

Barkun argues that this statement is partly facetious (the claim of "conspiracy" and "treason") and partly serious—the desire to encourage trilateral coopera- tion among the U.S., Europe, and Japan, for example—an ideal that used to be a hallmark of the internationalist wing of the Republican Party—known as "Rockefeller Republicans" in honor of Nelson Rockefeller—when there was an internationalist wing. The statement, however, is taken at face value and wide- ly cited by conspiracy theorists as proof that the Council on Foreign Relations uses its role as the brain trust of American presidents, senators and represent- atives to manipulate them into supporting a New World Order in the form of a one-world government.

In a 13 November 2007 interview with Canadian journalist Benjamin Fulford, Rockefeller countered: I don't think that I really feel that we need a world government. We need gov- ernments of the world that work together and collaborate. But, I can't imagine that there would be any likelihood or even that it would be desirable to have a single government elected by the people of the world ... There have been peo- ple, ever since I've had any kind of position in the world, who have accused me of being ruler of the world. I have to say that I think for the large part, I would have to decide to describe them as crackpots. It makes no sense whatsoever, and isn't true, and won't be true, and to raise it as a serious issue seems to me [50] to be irresponsible.

33

Some American social critics, such as Laurence H. Shoup, argue that the Coun- cil on Foreign Relations is an "imperial brain trust", which has, for decades, played a central behind-the-scenes role in shaping U.S. foreign policy choices for the post-World War II international order and the Cold War, by determining what options show up on the agenda and what options do not even make it to the table;[51] while others, such as G. William Domhoff, argue that it is in fact a mere policy discussion forum,[52] which provides the business input to U.S. for- eign policy planning.[citation needed] The latter argue that it has nearly 3,000 mem- bers, far too many for secret plans to be kept within the group; all the council does is sponsor discussion groups, debates and speakers; and as far as being secretive, it issues annual reports and allows access to its historical archives. However, all these critics agree that historical studies of the council show that it has a very different role in the overall power structure than what is claimed [52] by conspiracy theorists.

The Open Conspiracy

In his 1928 book The Open Conspiracy British writer and futurist H. G. Wells promoted cosmopolitanism and offered blueprints for a world revolu- tion and world brain to establish a technocratic world state and planned econ- [53] omy. Wells warned, however, in his 1940 book The New World Order that: ... when the struggle seems to be drifting definitely towards a world social de- mocracy, there may still be very great delays and disappointments before it becomes an efficient and beneficent world system. Countless people ... will hate the new world order, be rendered unhappy by the frustration of their passions and ambitions through its advent and will die protesting against it. When we attempt to evaluate its promise, we have to bear in mind the distress of a generation or so of malcontents, many of them quite gallant and graceful- [12] looking people.

Wells's books were influential in giving a second meaning to the term "new world order", which would only be used by state socialist supporters and anti- communist opponents for generations to come. However, despite the popular- ity and notoriety of his ideas, Wells failed to exert a deeper and more lasting influence because he was unable to concentrate his energies on a direct appeal to intelligentsias who would, ultimately, have to coordinate the Wellsian new [54] world order.

34

New Age

British neo-Theosophical occultist , one of the founders of the so- called New Age movement, prophesied in 1940 the eventual victory of the Allies of World War II over the Axis powers (which occurred in 1945) and the establishment by the Allies of a political and religious New World Order. She saw a federal world government as the culmination of Wells' Open Con- spiracy but favorably argued that it would be synarchist because it was guided by the Masters of the Ancient Wisdom, intent on preparing humanity for the mystical second coming of Christ, and the dawning of the . According to Bailey, a group of ascended masters called the Great White Brotherhood works on the "inner planes" to oversee the transition to the New World Order but, for now, the members of this Spiritual Hierarchy are only known to a fewoccult scientists, with whom they communicate telepathically, but as the need for their personal involvement in the plan increases, there will be an "Externalization of the Hierarchy" and everyone will know of their pres- [55] ence on Earth.

Bailey's writings, along with American writer 's 1980 book The Aquarian Conspiracy, contributed to conspiracy theorists of the Christian right viewing the New Age movement as the "false religion" that would supersede Christianity in a New World Order.[56] Skeptics argue that the term "New Age movement" is a misnomer, generally used by conspiracy theo- rists as a catch-all rubric for any new religious movement that is not fundamentalist Christian. By this logic, anything that is not Christian is by [57] definition actively and willfully anti-Christian.

Paradoxically, since the 2000s (decade), New World Order conspiracism is in- creasingly being embraced and propagandized by New Age occultists, who are people bored by rationalism and drawn to stigmatized knowledge—such as al- ternative medicine, , , spiritualism, [6] and theosophy.

35

Thus, New Age conspiracy theorists, such as the makers of documentary films like Esoteric Agenda, claim that globalists who plot on behalf of the New World Order are simply misusing occultism for Machiavellian ends, such as adopting 21 December 2012 as the exact date for the establishment of the New World Order for the purpose of taking advantage of the growing , which has its origins in the fringe Mayanist theories of New Age writers José Argüelles, Terence McKenna, and Daniel Pinchbeck.

Skeptics argue that the connection of conspiracy theorists and occultists fol- lows from their common fallacious premises. First, any widely accepted belief must necessarily be false. Second, stigmatized knowledge—what the Estab- lishment spurns—must be true. The result is a large, self-referential network in which, for example, some UFO religionists promote anti-Jewish phobias while [6] some anti-Semites practice Peruvian .

Fourth Reich

Conspiracy theorists often use the term "Fourth Reich" simply as a pejorative synonym for the "New World Order" to imply that its state ideology and gov- ernment will be similar to Germany's Third Reich. However, some conspiracy theorists use the research findings of American journalist Edwin Black, author of the 2009 book Nazi Nexus, to claim that some American corporations and philanthropic foundations—whose complicity was pivotal to the Third Reich's war effort, Nazi eugenics and the Holocaust—are now conspiring to build a [dubious – discuss] Fourth Reich .

Conspiracy theorists, such as American writer , claim that some ex- Nazis, who survived the fall of the Greater German Reich, along with sympa- thizers in the United States and elsewhere, given haven by organizations like ODESSA and Die Spinne, have been working behind the scenes since the end of World War II to enact at least some principles of Na- zism (e.g., militarism, imperialism, widespread spying on citizens, corporatism, the use of propaganda to manufacture a national consensus) into culture, gov- ernment, and business worldwide, but primarily in the U.S. They cite the influ- ence of ex-Nazi scientists brought in under Operation Paperclip to help ad- vance aerospace manufacturing in the U.S. with technological principles from Nazi UFOs, and the acquisition and creation of conglomerates by ex-Nazis [58] and their sympathizers after the war, in both Europe and the U.S.

36

This neo-Nazi conspiracy is said to be animated by an "Iron Dream" in which the American Empire, having thwarted theJudeo-Masonic conspiracy and over- thrown its Zionist Occupation Government, gradually establishes a Fourth Reich formerly known as the "Western Imperium"—a pan-Aryan world empire modeled after Adolf Hitler's New Order—which reverses the "decline of the [59] West" and ushers a golden age of white supremacy.

Skeptics argue that conspiracy theorists grossly overestimate the influence of ex-Nazis and neo-Nazis on American society, and point out that political re- pression at home and imperialism abroad have a long history in the United States that predates the 20th century. Some political scientists, such as Sheldon Wolin, have expressed concern that the twin forces of democratic deficit and superpower status have paved the way in the U.S. for the emer- gence of an inverted totalitarianism which contradicts many principles of Na- [60] zism.

Alien invasion

Since the late 1970s, extraterrestrials from other habitable planets or parallel dimensions (such as "Greys") and intra terrestrials from (such as "Reptilians") have been included in the New World Order conspiracy, in more or less dominant roles, as in the theories put forward by American writers Stan [6][61][62] Deyo and Milton William Cooper, and British writer .

The common theme in these conspiracy theories is that aliens have been among us for decades, centuries or millennia, but a government cover- up enforced by "" has shielded the public from knowledge of a se- cret alien invasion. Motivated by speciesism and imperialism, these aliens have been and are secretly manipulating developments and changes in human society in order to more efficiently control and exploit human beings. In some theories, alien infiltrators have shape shifted into human form and move freely throughout human society, even to the point of taking control of command positions in governmental, corporate, and religious institutions, [62] and are now in the final stages of their plan to take over the world.

37

A mythical covert government agency of the United States code- named Majestic 12 is often imagined being the shadow govern- ment which collaborates with the alien occupation and permits alien abduc- tions, in exchange for assistance in the development and testing of military "flying saucers" at , in order for United States armed forces to [6] achieve full-spectrum dominance.

Skeptics, who adhere to the psychosocial hypothesis for unidentified flying ob- jects, argue that the convergence of New World Order conspiracy theory and UFO conspiracy theory is a product of not only the era's widespread mis- trust of governments and the popularity of the extraterrestrial hypothesis for UFOs but of the far right and ufo logists actually joining forces. Barkun notes that the only positive side to this development is that, if conspirators plotting to rule the world are believed to be aliens, traditional hu- man scapegoats (Freemasons, Illuminati, Jews, etc.) are downgraded or exon- [6] erated.

Brave New World

Anti-science and neo-Luddite conspiracy theorists emphasize technology fore- casting in their New World Order conspiracy theories. They speculate that the global power elite are reactionary modernists pursuing a trans human- ist agenda to develop and use human enhancement technologies in order to become a "post human ruling caste", while change accelerates toward a technological singularity—a theorized future point of discontinuity when events will accelerate at such a pace that normal unenhanced humans will be unable to predict or even understand the rapid changes occurring in the world around them. Conspiracy theorists fear the outcome will either be the emer- gence of a Brave New World-like dystopia—a "Brave New World Order"—or [63] the extinction of the human species.

Democratic trans humanists, such as American sociologist James Hughes, counter that many influential members of the United States Establishment are bio conservatives strongly opposed to human enhancement, as demon- strated by ethic’s proposed international treaty prohibiting human clon- ing and germ line engineering. Furthermore, he argues that conspiracy theo- [64] rists underestimate how fringe the trans humanist movement really is. Postulated implementations

38

Just as there are several overlapping or conflicting theories among conspirac- ists about the nature of the New World Order, so are there several beliefs about how its architects and planners will implement it:

Gradualism

Conspiracy theorists generally speculate that the New World Order is being implemented gradually, citing the formation of the U.S. Federal Reserve Sys- tem in 1913; the League of Nations in 1919; the International Monetary Fund in 1944; the United Nations in 1945; the World Bank in 1945; the World Health Organization in 1948; the European Union and the euro currency in 1993; the World Trade Organization in 1998; the African Union in 2002; and [6] the Union of South American Nations in 2008 as major milestones.

An increasingly popular conspiracy theory among American right-wing popu- lists is that the hypothetical North American Union and the amero currency, proposed by the Council on Foreign Relations and its counterparts in Mexico and , will be the next milestone in the implementation of the New World Order. The theory holds that a group of shadowy and mostly nameless international elites are planning to replace the federal government of the United States with a transnational government. Therefore, conspiracy theorists believe the borders between Mexico, Canada and the United States are in the process of being erased, covertly, by a group of globalists whose ultimate goal is to replace national governments in Washington, D.C., Ottawa and Mexico City with a European-style political union and a bloated E.U.- [65] style bureaucracy.

Skeptics argue that the North American Union exists only as a proposal con- tained in one of a thousand academic and/or policy papers published each year that advocate all manner of idealistic but ultimately unrealistic approaches to social, economic and political problems. Most of these are passed around in their own circles and eventually filed away and forgotten by junior staffers in congressional offices. Some of these papers, however, become touchstones for the conspiracy-minded and form the basis of all kinds of unfounded xenopho- [65] bic fears especially during times of economic anxiety.

39

For example, in March 2009, as a result of the late-2000s financial crisis, the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation pressed for urgent con- sideration of a new international reserve currency and the United Nations Con- ference on Trade and Development proposed greatly expanding the I.M.F.'s special drawing rights. Conspiracy theorists fear these proposals are a [66][67] call for the U.S. to adopt a single global currency for a New World Order.

Judging that both national governments and global institutions have proven ineffective in addressing worldwide problems that go beyond the capacity of individual nation-states to solve, some political scientists critical of New World Order conspiracism, such as Mark C. Partridge, argue that regionalism will be the major force in the coming decades, pockets of power around regional cen- ters: Western Europe around Brussels, the Western Hemisphere around Wash- ington, D.C., East Asia around Beijing, and Eastern Europe around Moscow. As such, the E.U., the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and the G-20 will likely become more influential as time progresses. The question then is not wheth- er global governance is gradually emerging, but rather how will these regional [68] powers interact with one another.

Coup d'état

American right-wing populist conspiracy theorists, especially those who joined the militia movement in the United States, speculate that the New World Order will be implemented through a dramatic coup d'état by a "secret team", using black helicopters, in the U.S. and other nation-states to bring about a totalitarian world government controlled by the United Na- tions and enforced by troops of foreign U.N. peacekeepers. Following the Rex 84 and Operation Garden Plot plans, this military coup would involve the suspension of the Constitution, the imposition of martial law, and the ap- pointment of military commanders to head state and local governments and [69] to detain dissidents.

40

These conspiracy theorists, who are all strong believers in a right to keep and bear arms, are extremely fearful that the passing of any gun control legislation will be later followed by the abolishment of personal gun ownership and a campaign of gun confiscation, and that the refugee camps of emergency man- agement agencies such as F.E.M.A. will be used for the internment of suspect- ed subversives, making little effort to distinguish true threats to the New [20] World Order from pacifist dissidents.

Before year 2000 some survivalists wrongly believed this process would be set in motion by the predicted Y2K problem causing societal collapse.[70] Since many left-wing and right-wing conspiracy theorists believe that the September 11 attacks were a false flag operation carried out by the United States intelli- gence community, as part of a strategy of tension to justify political repres- sion at home and preemptive war abroad, they have become convinced that a more catastrophic terrorist incident will be responsible for triggering Executive [71] Directive 51 in order to complete the transition to a police state.

Skeptics argue that unfounded fears about an imminent or eventual gun ban, military coup, internment, or U.N. invasion and occupation are rooted in the siege mentality of the American militia movement but also an apocalyptic millenarianism which provides a basic narrative within the polit- ical right in the U.S., claiming that the idealized society (i.e., constitutional re- public, Jeffersonian democracy, "Christian nation", "white nation") is thwarted by subversive conspiracies of liberal secular humanists who want "Big Gov- [14] ernment" and globalists who plot on behalf of the New World Order.

41

Mass surveillance

Conspiracy theorists concerned with surveillance abuse believe that the New World Order is being implemented by the cult of intelligence at the core of the surveillance-industrial complex through mass surveillance and the use of Social Security numbers, the bar-coding of retail goods with Universal Product [6] Code markings, and, most recently, RFID tagging by microchip implants.

Claiming that corporations and government are planning to track every move of consumers and citizens with RFID as the latest step toward a 1984- likesurveillance state, consumer privacy advocates, such as Katherine Albrecht and Liz McIntyre,[72] have become Christian conspiracy theorists who believe spy chips must be resisted because they argue that modern database and communications technologies, coupled with point of sale data-capture equip- ment and sophisticated ID and authentication systems, now make it possible to require a biometrically associated number or mark to make purchases. They fear that the ability to implement such a system closely resembles the Number [6] of the Beast prophesied in the Book of Revelation.

In January 2002, the Information Awareness Office (IAO) was established by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to bring together several DARPA projects focused on applying information technology to counter asymmetric threats to national security. Following public criticism that the de- velopment and deployment of these technologies could potentially lead to a mass surveillance system, the IAO was defunded by the United States Congress [73] in 2003.

The second source of controversy involved IAO’s original logo, which depicted the "all-seeing" Eye of Providence atop of a pyramid looking down over the globe, accompanied by the Latin phrase scientia est potentia (knowledge is power). Although DARPA eventually removed the logo from its website, it left a lasting impression on privacy advocates.[74] It also inflamed conspiracy theo- rists,[75] who misinterpret the "eye and pyramid" as the Masonic symbol of the Illuminati,[32][76] an 18th-century secret society they speculate continues to [36][37] exist and is plotting on behalf of a New World Order.

42

American historian Richard Landes, who specializes in the history of apocalyp- ticism and was co-founder and director of the Center for Millennial Studies at Boston University, argues that new and emerging technologies often trig- ger alarmism among millenarians and even the introduction of Gutenberg's printing press in 1436 caused waves of apocalyptic thinking. The Year 2000 problem, bar codes and Social Security numbers all triggered end- time warnings which either proved to be false or simply were no longer taken seriously once the public became accustomed to these technological chang- es.[77] Civil libertarians argue that the privatization of surveillance and the rise of the surveillance-industrial complex in the United States does raise legitimate [78] concerns about the erosion of privacy.

However, skeptics of mass surveillance conspiracism caution that such con- cerns should be disentangled from secular paranoia about Big Brother or reli- [6] gious hysteria about the Antichrist.

Occultism

Conspiracy theorists of the Christian right, starting with British revisionist his- torian Nesta Helen Webster, believe there is an ancient occult conspiracy— started by the first mystagogues of Gnosticism and perpetuated by their al- leged esoteric successors, such as the Kabbalists, Cathars, Knights Tem- plar, Hermeticists, Rosicrucians, Freemasons, and, ultimately, the Illuminati— which seeks to subvert the Judeo-Christian foundations of the Western world and implement the New World Order through a one-world religion that prepares the masses to embrace the imperial cult of the Antichrist.[6] More broadly, they speculate that globalists who plot on behalf of a New World Or- der are directed by occult agencies of some sort: unknown superiors, spiritual hierarchies, demons, fallen angels and/or Lucifer. They believe that these con- spirators use the power of occult sciences (), symbols (Eye of Prov- idence), rituals (Masonic degrees), monuments (National Mall landmarks), buildings (Manitoba Legislative Building[79]) and facilities (Denver International [6] Airport) to advance their plot to rule the world.

43

For example, in June 1979, an unknown benefactor under the pseudonym " R. C. Christian" had a huge granite megalith built in the U.S. state of Georgia, which acts like a compass, calendar, and clock. A message comprising ten guides is inscribed on the occult structure in many languages to serve as in- structions for survivors of a doomsday event to establish a more enlightened and sustainable civilization than the one which was destroyed. The "Georgia Guide stones" have subsequently become a spiritual and political Rorschach test onto which any number of ideas can be imposed. Some New Agers and neo-pagans revere it as a ley-line power nexus while a few conspiracy the- orists are convinced that they are engraved with the New World Order's anti- Christian "Ten Commandments." Should the Guide stones survive for centuries as their creators intended, many more meanings could arise, equally unrelated [80] to the designer’s original intention.

Skeptics argue that the demonization of Western esotericism by conspiracy theorists is rooted in religious intolerance but also in the same moral pan- ics that have fueled witch trials in the Early Modern period, and satanic ritual [6] abuse allegations in the United States.

Population control

Conspiracy theorists believe that the New World Order will also be implement- ed through the use of human population control in order to more easily moni- tor and control the movement of individuals.[6] The means range from stopping the growth of human societies through reproductive health and family plan- ning programs, which promote abstinence, contraception and abortion, or in- tentionally reducing the bulk of the world population through genocides by mongering unnecessary wars, through plagues by engineering emergent virus- es and tainting vaccines, and through environmental disasters by controlling the weather (HAARP, chemtrails), etc. Conspiracy theorists argue that global- ists plotting on behalf of a New World Order are neo-Malthusians who engage in overpopulation and climate change alarmism in order to create public sup- port for coercive population control and ultimately world government.

44

Skeptics argue that fears of population control can be traced back to the trau- matic legacy of the eugenics movement's "war against the weak" in the United States during the first decades of the 20th century but also the Second Red Scare in the U.S. during the late 1940s and 1950s, and to a lesser extent in the 1960s, when activists on the far right of American politics routinely op- posed public health programs, notably water fluoridation, mass vaccination and mental health services, by asserting they were all part of a far-reaching plot to impose a socialist or communist regime.[81] Their views were influenced by opposition to a number of major social and political chang- es that had happened in recent years: the growth of internationalism, particu- larly the United Nations and its programs; the introduction of so- cial welfare provisions, particularly the various programs established by the New Deal; and government efforts to reduce inequalities in the social [82] structure of the U.S..

Mind control

Social critics accuse governments, corporations, and the mass media of being involved in the manufacturing of a national consensus and, paradoxically, a culture of fear due to the potential for increased social control that a mis- trustful and mutually fearing population might offer to those in power. The worst fear of some conspiracy theorists, however, is that the New World Order will be implemented through the use of mind control—a broad range of tactics able to subvert an individual's control of his or her own thinking, behavior, emotions, or decisions. These tactics are said to include everything from Manchurian candidate-style brainwashing of sleeper agents (Project MKULTRA, "Project Monarch") to engineering psychological operations (water fluoridation, subliminal advertising, "Silent Sound Spread Spectrum", MEDUSA) and parapsychological operations (Stargate Project) to influence the mass- es.[83] The concept of wearing a for protection from such threats has become a popular stereotype and term of derision; the phrase serves as a by- word for paranoia and is associated with conspiracy theorists.

45

Skeptics argue that the paranoia behind a conspiracy theorist's obsession with mind control, population control, occultism, surveillance abuse, Big Busi- ness, Big Government, and globalization arises from a combination of two fac- tors, when he or she: 1) holds strong individualist values and 2) lacks power. The first attribute refers to people who care deeply about an individual's right to make their own choices and direct their own lives without interference or obligations to a larger system (like the government), but combine this with a sense of powerlessness in one's own life, and one gets what some psycholo- gists call "agency panic," intense anxiety about an apparent loss of autonomy to outside forces or regulators. When fervent individualists feel that they can- not exercise their independence, they experience a crisis and assume that [84][85] larger forces are to blame for usurping this freedom.

Alleged conspirators

According to Domhoff, many people seem to believe that the United States is ruled from behind the scenes by a conspiratorial elite with secret desires, i.e., by a small secretive group that wants to change the government system or put the country under the control of a world government. In the past the con- spirators were usually said to be crypto-communists who were intent upon bringing the United States under a common world government with the Soviet Union, but the dissolution of the U.S.S.R. in 1991 undercut that theory. Domhoff notes that most conspiracy theorists changed their focus to the United Nations as the likely controlling force in a New World Order, an idea which is undermined by the powerlessness of the U.N. and the unwillingness of even moderates within the American Establishment to give it anything but a [52] limited role.

Although skeptical of New World Order conspiracism, political scientist David Rothkopf argues, in the 2008 book Superclass: The Global Power Elite and the World They Are Making, that the world population of 6 billion people is gov- erned by an elite of 6,000 individuals. Until the late 20th century, governments of the great powers provided most of the superclass, accompanied by a few heads of international movements (i.e., the Pope of the Catholic Church) and entrepreneurs (Rothschilds, Rockefellers).

46

According to Rothkopf, in the early 21st century, economic clout—fueled by the explosive expansion of international trade, travel and communication— rules; the nation-state's power has diminished shrinking politicians to minori- ty power broker status; leaders in international business, finance and the de- fense industry not only dominate the superclass, they move freely into high positions in their nations' governments and back to private life largely beyond the notice of elected legislatures (including the U.S. Congress), which remain abysmally ignorant of affairs beyond their borders. He asserts that the super- class' disproportionate influence over national policy is constructive but always self-interested, and that across the world, few object to corruption and op- [86] pressive governments provided they can do business in these countries.

Viewing the history of the world as the history of warfare between secret soci- eties, conspiracy theorists go further than Rothkopf, and other scholars who have studied the global power elite, by claiming that established upper-class families with "old money" who founded and finance the Bilderberg Group, Bohemian Club, Club of Rome, Council on Foreign Relations, Rhodes Trust, Skull and Bones, Trilateral Commission, and similar think tanks and pri- vate clubs, are illuminated conspirators plotting to impose a totalitarian New World Order—the implementation of an authoritarian world government con- trolled by the United Nations and a global central bank, which maintains politi- cal power through the financialization of the economy, regulation and re- striction of speech through the concentration of media ownership, mass sur- veillance, widespread use of state terrorism, and an all- encompassing propaganda that creates a cult of personality around a puppet world leader and ideologies world government as the culmination of history's [6] progress.

Marxists, who are skeptical of right-wing populist conspiracy theories, also ac- cuse the global power elite of not having the best interests of all at heart, and many intergovernmental organizations of suffering from a democratic deficit, but they argue that the superclass are plutocrats only interested in brazenly imposing a neoliberal or neoconservative new world order—the implementa- tion of global capitalism through economic and military coercion to protect the interests of transnational corporations—which systematically undermines the [87] possibility of a socialist one-world government.

47

Arguing that the world is in the middle of a transition from the American Em- pire to the rule of a global ruling class that has emerged from within the Amer- ican Empire, they point out that right-wing populist conspiracy theorists, blind- ed by their anti-communism, fail to see is that what they demonize as the "New World Order" is, ironically, the highest stage of the very capital- [87] ist economic system they defend.

Criticisms

Skeptics of New World Order conspiracy theories accuse its proponents of in- dulging in the furtive fallacy, a belief that significant facts of history are neces- sarily sinister; conspiracism, a world view that centrally places conspiracy theo- ries in the unfolding of history, rather than social and economic forces; and fusion paranoia, a promiscuous absorption of fears from any source what- [6] soever.

Domhoff, a research professor in psychology and sociology who studies theo- ries of power, writes in a March 2005 essay entitled There Are No Conspiracies:

There are several problems with a conspiratorial view that don't fit with what we know about power structures. First, it assumes that a small handful of wealthy and highly educated people somehow develop an extreme psychologi- cal desire for power that leads them to do things that don't fit with the roles they seem to have. For example, that rich capitalists are no longer out to make a profit, but to create a one-world government. Or that elected officials are trying to get the constitution suspended so they can assume dictatorial pow- ers. These kinds of claims go back many decades now, and it is always said that it is really going to happen this time, but it never does. Since these claims have proved wrong dozens of times by now, it makes more sense to assume that leaders act for their usual reasons, such as profit-seeking motives and institu- tionalized roles as elected officials. Of course they want to make as much money as they can, and be elected by huge margins every time, and that can lead them to do many unsavory things, but nothing in the ballpark of creating a [52] one-world government or suspending the constitution.

48

Partridge, a contributing editor to the global affairs magazine Diplomatic Cou- rier, writes in a December 2008 article entitled One World Government: Con- spiracy Theory or Inevitable Future?:

I am skeptical that "global governance" could "come much sooner than that [200 years]," as [journalist Gideon Rachman] posits. For one thing, national- ism—the natural counterpoint to global government—is rising. Some leaders and peoples around the world have resented Washington's chiding and hubris over the past two decade of American unipolarity. Russia has been re- establishing itself as a "great power"; few could miss the national pride on dis- play when China hosted the Beijing Olympics this summer; while Hugo Chavez and his ilk have stoked the national flames with their anti-American rhetoric. The departing of the Bush Administration could cause this nationalism to abate, but economic uncertainty usually has the opposite effect. [...] Another point is that attempts at global government and global agreements have been categorical failures. The WTO’s Doha Round is dead in the water, Kyoto ex- cluded many of the leading polluters and a conference to establish a deal was a failure, and there is a race to the bottom in terms of corporate taxes—rather than an existing global framework. And, where supranational governance structures exist, they are noted for their bureaucracy and inefficiency: The UN has been unable to stop an American-led invasion of Iraq, genocide in Darfur, the slow collapse of Zimbabwe, or Iran's continued uranium enrichment. That is not to belittle the structure, as I deem it essential, but the system’s flaws are [68] there for all to see.

Although some cultural critics see super conspiracy theories about a New World Order as "postmodern metanarratives" that may be politically empow- ering, a way of giving ordinary people a narrative structure with which to ques- tion what they see around them,[88] skeptics argue that conspiracism leads people into cynicism, convoluted thinking, and a tendency to feel it is hopeless [89] even as they denounce the alleged conspirators.

The activities of conspiracy theorists (talk radio shows, books, websites, docu- mentary videos, conferences, etc.) unwittingly draw enormous amounts of en- ergy and effort away from serious criticism and activism directed to real and ongoing crimes of state, and their institutional background.

49

That is why conspiracy-focused movements (JFK, UFO, 9/11 Truth) are treated far more tolerantly by centers of power than is the norm for serious critical and activist work of truly left-wing progressives who are marginalized from main- [14] stream public discourse.

Alexander Zaitchik from the Southern Poverty Law Center wrote a report titled "'Patriot' Paranoia: A Look at the Top Ten Conspiracy Theories" condemning such conspiracies are an effort of the radical right to undermine society. Scholars continue to debate the psychological and sociological origins of con- spiracy theories, but there is no arguing that these theories have seen a revival on the extreme right in recent years. Over the last two decades, a far-right conspiracy culture of self-proclaimed "Patriots" has emerged in which the United States government itself is viewed as a mortal threat to everything from constitutional democracy to the survival of the human race. This conspiracy re- vival — which has been accompanied by the explosive growth of Patriot groups over the last year and a half — kicked into overdrive with the 2008 election of President Barack Obama, who is seen by Patriots as a foreign-born Manchurian candidate sent by forces of the so-called "New World Order" to destroy Ameri- can sovereignty and institute one-world socialist government.[1]

Concerned that the improvisational millennialism of most conspiracy theories about a New World Order might motivate lone wolves to engage in leaderless resistance leading to domestic terrorist incidents like the Oklahoma City bomb- [90] ing, Barkun writes:

The danger lies less in such beliefs themselves ... than in the behavior they might stimulate or justify. As long as the New World Order appeared to be al- most but not quite a reality, devotees of conspiracy theories could be expected to confine their activities to propagandizing. On the other hand, should they believe that the prophesied evil day had in fact arrived; their behavior would [6] become far more difficult to predict.

Warning of the threat to American democracy posed by right-wing popu- list movements led by demagogues who mobilize support for mob rule or even a fascist revolution by exploiting the fear of conspiracies, Berlet writes: Right-wing populist movements can cause serious damage to a society because they often popularize xenophobia, authoritarianism, scapegoating, and con- spiracism.

50

This can lure mainstream politicians to adopt these themes to attract voters, legitimize acts of discrimination (or even violence), and open the door for revo- lutionary right-wing populist movements, such as fascism, to recruit from the [14] reformist populist movements.

Hughes, a professor of religion, warns that no religious idea has greater poten- tial for shaping global politics in profoundly negative ways than "the new world order". He writes in a February 2011 article entitled Revelation, Revolutions, and the Tyrannical New World Order:

The crucial piece of this puzzle is the identity of the Antichrist, the tyrannical figure who both leads and inspires the new world order. [...] for many years, rapture theologians identified the Soviet Union as the Antichrist. But after Sept. 11, they became quite certain that the Antichrist was closely connected with the Arab world and the Muslim religion. This means, quite simply, that for rapture theologians, Islam stands at the heart of the tyrannical "new world or- der." Precisely here we discover why the idea of a "new world order" has such potential to move global politics in profoundly negative directions, for rapture theologians typically welcome war with the Islamic world.

As Bill Moyers wrote of the rapture theologians, "A war with Islam in the Mid- dle East is not something to be feared but welcomed—an essential conflagra- tion on the road to redemption." Further, rapture theologians co-opt the Unit- ed States as a tool in their cosmic vision—a tool God will use to smite the Anti- christ and the enemies of righteousness.

This is why Tim LaHaye, co-author of the best-selling series of end-times books, could lend such strong support to the American invasion and occupation of Iraq. By virtue of that war, LaHaye believed, Iraq would become "a focal point of end-times events."

Even more disturbing is the fact that rapture theologians blissfully open the door to nuclear holocaust. Rapture theologians have always held that God will destroy his enemies at the end of time in the Great Battle of Armageddon. But since World War II, they have increasingly identified Armageddon with nuclear weaponry, thereby lending biblical inevitability to the prospects of nuclear an- nihilation. As one prophecy writer put it, "The holocaust of atomic war would [24] fulfill the prophecies."

51

Criticisms of New World Order conspiracy theorists also come from within their own community. Despite believing themselves to be "freedom fighters", many right-wing populist conspiracy theorists hold views that are incompatible with their professed libertarianism, such as dominionism, white supremacism, [14][91] and even eliminationism.

This paradox has led Icke, who argues that Christian Patriots are the only Americans who understand the truth about the New World Order (which he believes is controlled by a race of reptilians known as the "Babylonian Brother- hood"), to reportedly tell a Christian Patriot group:

I don't know which I dislike more, the world controlled by the Brotherhood, or [6] the one you want to replace it with.

Bill Gates sets New World Order conspiracy Theories On |Fire with Global Government Quote – Patrick frye http://www.inquisitr.com/1866937/bill-gates-sets-new-world-order- conspiracy-theories-on-fire-with-global-government-quote/

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates may be the richest man in the world, but he apparently envisions a global government as a goal for the future. This pro- spect has New World Order conspiracy theorists buzzing about the potential for the one world government being pushed by the Gates Foundation.

In a related report by the Inquisitr, Brazil’s Eike Batista managed to go from one of the world’s richest men to the very first negative billionaire within a pe- riod of only several years. Some New World Order conspiracy theories claim the Illuminati devil horns were spotted at the 2015 Grammy Awards.

There are many Bill Gates conspiracy theories. One of the oldest was the claim about a hidden code in Microsoft Windows that secretly proclaimed Gates’ identity as the bible’s anti-Christ. Gates had many buzzing when it came to his comments on viral vaccines and human depopulation throughout the world. Another popular conspiracy theory was the idea that Gates funded a Sierra Le- one bioweapons lab which created the Ebola outbreak.

While these ideas are not with any merit, it does not take a New World Order conspiracy theory to see where Bill Gates is going with these comments about the failure of the United Nations.

“You can make fun of it, but in truth it was sad how the conference in Copen- hagen is run, how individual who behave like the UN system failed…. Take the UN, it has been created especially for the security in the world. We are ready for war, because we have taken every precaution. We have NATO, we have di- visions, jeeps, trained people,” Bill Gates said according to the Huffington Post. “But what is with epidemics? How many doctors do we have as much planes, tents, what scientists? If there were such a thing as a world government, we would be better prepared.”

62

What Gates does not make clear is how a global government would operate. It’s long been said that a one world government would require a global curren- cy, and Bill Gates even made headlines with a plan to implement a cashless system in multiple third-world countries.

Some conspiracy theories fear a New World Order would be conceived in se- cret, but it’s possible such plans will march right out in the open. Would you be in favour of a global government where member nations operate like the states in the United States?

THE NEW WORLD ORDER: CONSPIRACY THEORY, OR CONSPIRACY FACT?

The New World Order is no longer a conspiracy theory; it is an established fact.

The "New World Order" has been a prominent conspir- acy theory for decades[1]. Here and now, as the new mil- lennium dawns, the New World Order has become a globally recognised political concept,[2] and as such it can no longer be regarded simply as a theory.

Mankind is now literally entering a new age, the Age of Aquarius, according to the ancient zodiacal calendar which is as old as human civilisation.[3] Aquarius is associ- ated by astrologers with brotherhood, or fraternity, which is the cornerstone of Freemasonry.

The previous zodiacal age was that of Pisces. The zodiacal symbol of Pisces, the fish, is also an important Christian symbol, and it is noteworthy that the age of Pisces coincided with the age of Christianity. During the previous age dates were written with the suffix "A.D." which stands for "Anno Domini" or "Year of Our Lord" denoting the era of Christ. Alternatively, dates were denoted "B.C." - "Be- fore Christ".

In 2002 AD, as the Age of Pisces was giving way to the new age of Aquarius, the decision was officially taken to replace the BC/AD date referencing system with the new CE/BCE references which stand for "Common Era" and "Before the Common Era".[4] What better way for the New Secular Order to proclaim the be- ginning of its reign than to secularise the way in which dates are recorded, re- placing the Christian dating system of the old Order with a new, secular system for the for the Aquarian age?

64

Consider the official Great Seal of the Unites States of America[5], which is most commonly seen on the back of the one the dollar bill[6] - probably the world's most familiar banknote. On the US Great Seal, beneath the ancient Pyramid, is the Latin inscription: "Novus Ordo Seclorum". The official translation of this mot- to is "A New Order of the Ages". The Latin word "Novus" means "New", and "Ordo" means "Order". The Latin word "Seclorum" and its English equivalent "Secular"both share the same three alternative definitions: (1) "Secular" - with- out religion; (2) "Worldly" - of this world; and (3) "From century to century" - or from age to age.

Thus, the motto "Novus Ordo Seclorum" has three different but equally valid translations:  New Secular Order  New World Order  New Order of the Ages

The different meanings of Novus Ordo Seclorum are not mutually exclusive; in fact, they are synergistic. The alternative translations are all as pertinent today as they were "at the beginning of the new American era in 1776." Let this be a testament the wisdom of the men who chose these words, for they demonstrate the esoteric power of language and the written Word.

If secret societies are able to display such esoteric and Masonic symbolism so prominently for us all to see, then perhaps this is indeed the age of Freemasonry. Amen.

Amen-Ra.

4.a. Evening Standard (UK), "AD and BC become CE/BCE", 19 February 2002.

In what could be seen as their greatest victory to date, politically cor- rect campaigners have succeeded in getting schools to scrap the Chris- tian calendar.

Breaking with centuries of tradition, the terms "BC" and "AD" are to be replaced with a system known as the Common Era. The two dating schemes are identical and both use the birth of Christ as their starting points, but the secular version does not acknowledge this.

The Latin term Anno Domini, meaning in the year of our Lord, be- comes Common Era, or CE, and Before Christ becomes Before the Com- mon Era, or BCE.

The term "common" refers to the fact that the Christian calendar is the most frequently used around the world. The move has sparked out- rage among Church leaders. The Rev Rod Thomas of Reform, the Church of England's evangelical network, said: "What they are attempting to do is educate children into believing there is a way of measuring our calen- dar that takes its dates from an event, the significance of which, they are trying to deny.

"The whole of the Western calendar has been based on BC and AD. To change that for no good reason is to do a disservice to our youngsters."

Colin Hart, from the Christian Institute, said: "This is ridiculous. Be- tween three and four per cent of people in Britain are of a non-Christian faith. This is about white liberals imposing political correctness in schools to ensure children are cut off from the past, for fear of upsetting someone.

67

"Of course, it is perfectly acceptable to offend the vast majority." Panels comprising teachers, councillors and religious representatives advise councils in England and Wales on religious education syllabuses.

But defending the change, a spokesman for the Qualifications and Cur- riculum Authority said: "It's not a question of one way is wrong and one is right, more a question of which is most commonly used.

"CE/BCE is becoming an industry standard among historians. "Pupils have to be able to recognise these terms when they come across them."

4.b. Daily Telegraph (UK), "History has to be rewritten as school bans BC and AD", 13 December 2002.

... Church officials are also upset by the change. David Guest, commu- nications officer for the Diocese of Chichester, said: "BC and AD have been used for centuries and have not upset people. They do have Chris- tian significance but they have historical significance as well. We would be disappointed if these new terms became the norm."

4.c. Sunday Times (UK), "The Lord isn't PC in the year 2000CE", front-page, 23 January 2000.

"THE Home Office has raised the prospect of scrapping the phrase An- no Domini (AD) in favour of the politically correct Common Era. Out- raged churchmen are already mustering to frustrate the advocates of change, led by academics and civil servants..."

Presented to the world as a mystical revelation, the UN Earth Charter is actually a diabolical blueprint for global government.

"My hope is that this charter will be a kind of Ten Commandments, a 'Sermon on the Mount,' that provides a guide for human behavior to- ward the environment in the next century and beyond." - Mikhail Gorbachev

Millions of Americans were justifiably shocked and outraged over the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' notorious ruling on the Pledge of Alle- giance. "Can our courts really have sunk this low?" people asked. "How can little Johnny and Suzie violate the Constitution by uttering the words 'under God' while reciting the Pledge of Allegiance in a public school?"

Yet that is what the Court said in its June 26th decision. This ruling was a continuation of an on-going subversive campaign aimed at ex- punging all mention of God and all Christian symbols from the public sphere. Judicial activists have ordered our students not to invoke the Almighty's name in prayer on school property. Posting the Ten Com- mandments on classroom walls is also supposedly a major no-no. Tradi- tional Christmas carols with religious themes are out, as are Nativity scenes. Christmas and Easter vacations have been de-Christianized to, respectively, winter and spring breaks. Many textbooks have dropped the traditional "Christocentric" dating system of B.C. (Before Christ) and A.D. (Anno Domini, In the Year of Our Lord) in favour of B.C.E. (Before the Common Era) and C.E. (Common Era).

Obama’s ‘New World Order’ Quote Will Creep You Out Even If You’re Not a Conspiracy Theorist

BY SOOPERMEXICAN (1 YEAR AGO) | NATION, POLITICS

I’m not really partial to conspiracy theories, in fact, I love to debunk them, but even though a certain quote from Obama’s speech on Tuesday will bring out the crazies, it should also alarm the more rational among us.

The Washington Post‘s Chris Cilliza highlighted this excerpt [emphasis add- ed]:

“But whether people see what’s happening in Ukraine, and Russia’s aggres- sion towards its neighbours in the manner in which it’s financing and arming separatists; to what’s happened in Syria — the devastation that Assad has wrought on his own people; to the failure in Iraq for Sunni and Shia and Kurd to compromise — although we’re trying to see if we can put together a gov- ernment that actually can function; to on-going terrorist threats; to what’s happening in Israel and Gaza — part of peoples’ concern is just the sense that around the world the “old order” isn’t holding and we’re not quite yet to where we need to be in terms of a “new order” that’s based on a different set of principles, that’s based on a sense of common humanity, that’s based on economies that work for all people.”

70

Yes, this is the kind of “New World Order” quote that puts money in the wal- let of Alex Jones, but aside from positing that Obama is a lizard space alien hell bent on imposing Sharia-Illuminati martial law on the world, it actually displays an amazing but troubling aspect of Obama’s “philosophy” of the world, if you can call it that.

While more and more people are looking around the world and seeing the turmoil that follows on America receding from the global stage, Obama just sees business as usual – he doesn’t believe he has any hand at all in all these events. He doesn’t believe that selling out our allies on missile defence and the “Russian Reset” encouraged Putin, or that making impotent threats against Assad emboldened him or that pulling out of Iraq prematurely brought on the ISIS terrorist resurgence. He really believes this is all just normal.

And so he’s seizing on these crises that he himself worsened, and using them as a springboard to say we need more “hope and change” or whatever vapid phrase he’s going to attach to whatever it is he’s selling.

Let’s hope the American people choose something better than the broken road Obama has been us guiding onto.

New World Order Facts Know everything about the greatest conspiracy theory

New World Order 2012: Things to Know

Written by admin

Different people have different views on certain things; some may be ordi- nary and common while some may be odd to some people. One of the ideas that caught the interest of many people in the world is the New World Order 2012, which is considered as one of most intriguing of all conspiracy theories.

According to some conspiracy theorists, there’s this group of elites who is planning to rule the entire world unitarily. The New World Order Concept is the main theme of this conspiracy theory. Although the main concept or idea behind this concept is that there is a secretive group of elite that is pushing a globalist idea of controlling the world with their secretive agenda.

What is it all about

To those who have little to no idea about this whole conspiracy theory thing, this can be very interesting subject to learn about. The conspiracy theory ac- tually started in some decades ago where it started as a small group of ideas pointing to one main concept: the world will be taken over by a few people who share common but rather odd idealism.

In the late 1980s to early 1990s, this concept is only between group of people who are against the US government and on how they seemingly control the rest of the world with their ideals. But from that standpoint, the single idea grown into something big that there is actually an organized plan of some “secretive” group of people to control humanity.

72

Etymology

The term New World Order was first used by some distinguished Statesmen in by the name of Winston Churchill and Woodrow Wilson, which described a period in history where the world will experience drastic change that will change the course of the world’s political and economic orientation. The people who coined the term specifically forecasted that the world will experience this drastic change after the First and the Second World War. With this in mind, they originally proposed that there should be collective and idealistic way of governing the entire world in a bid to avoid having to experience all the problems that they thought would strangle the world be- fore that period.

They thought that the problems before the entire world are so big that no single nation can surmount such problems unless they work together as one. The original intention of the founder of this idea are so noble in a sense that they even professed to continue upholding the ideals and principle governed by NATO and the United Nations when it comes to the sovereignty of each state specially in their rights to self-determination as one and independent nation.

Development

After the two distinguished gentlemen ignited the interest of the world with their seemingly idealistic views, there were several modification and devel- opment to the core idea. After the two proponents, another futurists and idealists modified the original idea considering all the conditions of the world.

Questions to answer Without a doubt, people behind these conspiracies, which include the New World Order 2012, are among the world’s brilliant thinkers and policy mak- ers. However, for the skeptics, there are some gray areas in their views. To some, there seems to be inconsistency and discrepancies on the points raised by the theorists.

What is New World Order

Written by admin

If you’re one of thousands if not millions of people who have been ask- ing what is new world order, then you are about to learn about one of the world’s most interesting and intriguing conspiracy theories. For most people, these conspiracy theories may sound odd and preposterous ideas. But despite their being out-of-this-world ideas, these theorists are presenting something valid argument in so many ways. However, we cannot blame peo- ple, especially the sceptics to be in becoming sceptical in whatever ways. The main concept

In a general sense, New World Order (NOW) is a small group of people who share a common belief that there’s this conspiracy between the world’s elite to take over and control the world at once. In fact, this is one of the most popular concepts of all the types of conspiracy theories.

There are some theories that originated as early as in the early 20th century and predicted that there will be a drastic change in the world’s politics and economics. The group also argue that the “group” behind this so called “plan” to control the world are leaders of the world’s most powerful coun- tries.

The plan

Part of their supposed “plan” is to control the entire world unilaterally. Ac- cording to some accounts, there are those who claim that this select few will over power all nations in the world and to establish a totalitarian, globalist, and authoritarian government.

According to the most well-known conspiracy theorists, part of the plan is to make the totalitarian government as the form of government that will culmi- nate human history. From this general idea, there are minor and other sub- theories that revolves from this concept.

74

Whether you are asking what is new world order or trying to justify whether this is indeed true, it is up to you. All the needed facts and studies are there to help you decide what is it that you will believe.

People Need to Know About Project Bluebeam

Written by admin

Years after years, the number of conspiracy theorists and their believers con- tinue to increase so as the number of conspiracy theories. This includes the Project Bluebeam, which postulates that NASA is planning to launch a new age of Anti Christ religion.

If you’ve been reading about conspiracy theories in the past, you have heard about the some other conspiracy theories that for some may sound far fetch while for other people, sounds believable. Whether you are a firm believer of these conspiracy theories or an avid sceptic, there are some points that are worth noting.

Unlike other conspiracy theories that mainly focused on a secret group that plans to unilaterally control the entire world, the Project Blue- beam specifically focuses on the NASA heading a new generation of religion but on an Anti-Christ perspective.

But other than establishing a new religion, this specific conspiracy theory also aims to aspire for a technologically initiated new coming kind of world. The theory’s proponents, Canadian journalist Serge Monast, was said to have been killed by the government and his daughter, kidnapped by the Canadian government.

But even Serge’s death was subject to conspiracy theory claiming that there was something “big” behind his death. Although official reports said his cause of death was cardiac arrest.

75

The main feature of this particular conspiracy theory is that is aims to answer or rationalize historical events that had happened and predicts future events that are bound to unfold.

Criticisms

One of the main criticisms about this kind of conspiracy theory is its lack of rational and practical framework. Critics would even label the pioneers of this theory as “paranoid”. Also, after thoroughly reading the entire principles of this theory, one might think that the proponents and those who believe on this theory have great fear towards significantly advancing that even they lack of understanding.

Illuminati New World Order: Believe it or Not

Written by admin

If we talk about the greatest conspiracy theory, we can’t talk about it without mention the Illuminati New World Order. To those who have little to no idea about conspiracy theory, this concept can be very confusing in so many ways. But for the sake if simplified discussion, conspiracy theory is a group of idea that tries to explain that there are a few people, especially world’s most elite leaders, are planning have control of the entire world.

One of the main points of this whole conspiracy theory thing is that there will come a time that the entire world will be ruled by a group of elite. Although this may sound preposterous for some people, there are actually “evidences” that the people exposing this conspiracy are showing to support their claims. But before you make a decision whether to believe or reject this concept, you should probably take a look to some of the main arguments of those expos- ing it and decide for yourself whether this whole Illuminati New World Or- der thing is true or not.

76

One of the most common misconceptions that the people behind the New World Order (NWO) is composed of people who have dedicated most of their professional life in distracting the government by showing associations that it is planning (behind the back of the people) to have control of the entire world.

To some people, one of the most striking concepts and ideas that the New World Order have presented so far is the concept of Illuminati. Regardless of which reference you would consult or ask, there’s only one definition and de- scription about Illuminati: it is a secret society for the past 200 years, has been planning to overthrow and control the world.

Many documentaries and movies have been made in order to answer some mysteries of the decade-old secret group and their whole agenda but nothing seems to have made it so far.

New World Order Plan: Does it Matters?

Written by admin

For several years now, several conspiracy theorists believe that there’s this concept called the New World Order Plan where a group of elite are organiz- ing a worldwide scheme where they plan to overthrow the world and control all nations unilaterally.

But do we really know enough about this conspiracy theory and how it af- fects ordinary people? According to many accounts, this conspiracy theory begun as early as the start of the 20th century. To them, this secretive group is up to something very big that all nations in the world should start to worry about.

77

Why it matters?

For ordinary person, the very first question that one would ask is how the conspiracy theory, especially the New World Order Plan, affects their ordi- nary lives. Of course it really does matter. For ordinary citizens of any nation, the notion that something bigger and more powerful people than you r lead- ers are planning to control the rest of the world is something that really should bother you.

If you don’t think all these plans that something big is set to control the rest of the world don’t bother you, then there must be really wrong about you.

The basis of the New World Order

If you have read enough about this subject matter, you should have probably known enough to tell that there are a lot of evidences that propelled this conspiracy theory. For the hard core conspiracy theorists, evidences, which support that this idea is indeed happening, are so common that people won’t that they’ve been conditioned to believe this whole circus of idea. Symbolism found in one US Dollar bill are among the most common evidenc- es that this secretive group does exists. If you carefully observe a one US Dol- lar bill, you will notice vital symbols and icons that represent the secret group that are said to be behind the New World Order agenda.

The New World Order (NWO) An Overview – Educate Yourself.org By Ken Adachi, Editor

http://educate-yourself.org/nwo/ Google Translator: Convert English into 51 Different Languages http://translate.google.com/?prev=hp#sl|en| Translated versions:

Introduction

There is a worldwide conspiracy being orchestrated by an extremely power- ful and influential group of genetically-related individuals (at least at the highest echelons) which include many of the world's wealthiest people, top political leaders, and corporate elite, as well as members of the so- called Black Nobility of Europe (dominated by the British Crown) whose goal is to create a One World (fascist) Government, stripped of nationalistic and regional boundaries, that is obedient to their agenda. Their intention is to ef- fect complete and total control over every human being on the planet and to dramatically reduce the world's population by 6.5 Billion people to 500 mil- lion. While the name New World Order is a term frequently used today when referring to this group, it's more useful to identify the principal organizations, institutions, and individuals who make up this vast interlocking spider web of elite conspirators.

The Illuminati is the oldest term commonly used to refer to the 13 bloodline families (and their offshoots) that make up a major portion of this controlling elite. Most members of the Illuminati are also members in the highest ranks of numerous secretive and occult societies which in many cases extend straight back into the ancient world. The upper levels of the tightly com- partmentalized (need-to-know-basis) Illuminati structural pyramid include planning committees and organizations that the public has little or no knowledge of. The upper levels of the Illuminati pyramid include secretive committees with names such as: the Council of 3, the Council of 5, the Council of 7, the Council of 9, theCouncil of 13, the Council of 33, the Grand Druid Council, the Committee of 300 (also called the "Olympians") and the Committee of 500among others.

In 1992, Dr John Coleman published Conspirators' Hierarchy: The Story of the Committee of 300. With laudable scholarship and meticulous research, Dr Coleman identifies the players and carefully details the Illuminati agenda of worldwide domination and control. On page 161 of the Conspirators Hierar- chy, Dr Coleman accurately summarizes the intent and purpose of the Com- mittee of 300 as follows:

"A One World Government and one-unit monetary system, under perma- nent non-elected hereditary oligarchists who self-select from among their numbers in the form of a feudal system as it was in the Middle Ages. In this One World entity, population will be limited by restrictions on the number of children per family, diseases, wars, famines, until 1 billion people who are useful to the ruling class, in areas which will be strictly and clearly defined, remain as the total world population.

There will be no middle class, only rulers and the servants. All laws will be uniform under a legal system of world courts practicing the same unified code of laws, backed up by a One World Government police force and a One World unified military to enforce laws in all former countries where no na- tional boundaries shall exist. The system will be on the basis of a welfare state; those who are obedient and subservient to the One World Government will be rewarded with the means to live; those who are rebellious will simple be starved to death or be declared outlaws, thus a target for anyone who wishes to kill them. Privately owned firearms or weapons of any kind will be prohibited."

The sheer magnitude and complex web of deceit surrounding the individuals and organizations involved in this conspiracy is mind boggling, even for the most astute among us. Most people react with disbelief and scepticism to- wards the topic, unaware that they have been conditioned(brainwashed) to react with scepticism by institutional and media influences that were created by the Mother of All mind control organizations: The in London. Author and de-programmer Fritz Springmeier (The Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines ) says that most people have built in "slides" that short circuit the mind's critical exami- nation process when it comes to certain sensitive topics.

80

"Slides", Spring Meier reports, is a CIA term for a conditioned type of re- sponse which dead ends a person's thinking and terminates debate or exam- ination of the topic at hand. For example, the mention of the word "conspir- acy" often solicits a slide response with many people. (Spring Meier has co- authored three books on trauma-based programming which detail how the Illuminati employ highly tuned and extremely sophisticated Mind Con- trol (MC) training programs that begin the programming process while the intended victim is still within the womb. Mind Control is a much greater problem than most people realize. According to Cisco Wheeler, a former Il- luminati mind control programmer, there are 10 million people who have been programmed as mind controlled slaves using trauma-based MC pro- grams with names like Monarch and MK Ultra. The newer, non-trauma, elec- tronic means of MC programming that grew out of the Montauk Project, may include millions more. Al Bielek, who played a principle role in the develop- ment of the Montauk Project, said that there likely 10 million victims of Mon- tauk style mind control programming worldwide, the majority located in the USA. He also said that there are covert Montauk Programming 'Centres' in every major city in the U.S. )

What most Americans believe to be "Public Opinion" is in reality carefully crafted and scripted propaganda designed to elicit a desired behavioural re- sponse from the public. Public opinion polls are really taken with the intent of gauging the public's acceptance of the Illuminati's planned programs. A strong showing in the polls tells the Illuminati that the programing is "tak- ing", while a poor showing tells the NWO manipulators that they have to re- cast or "tweak" the programming until the desired response is achieved. While the thrust and content of the propaganda is decided at Tavistock, im- plementation of the propaganda is executed in the United States by well over 200 'think tanks' such as the Rand Corporation and the Brookings Insti- tute which are overseen and directed by the top NWO mind control organiza- tion in the United States, the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) in Menlo Park, California.

81

The NWO global conspirators manifest their agenda through the skil- ful manipulation of human emotions, especially fear. In the past centuries, they have repeatedly utilized a contrivance that NWO researcher and au- thor David Icke has characterized in his latest book, The Biggest Secret, as Problem, Reaction, and Solution.

The technique is as follows: Illuminati strategists create the Problem- by funding , assembling, and training an "opposition" group to stimulate turmoil in an established political power (sovereign country, region, continent, etc.) that they wish to impinge upon and thus create opposing factions in a conflict that the Illuminati themselves maneuvered into existence. In recent decades, so called "opposition" groups are usually identified in the media as 'freedom fighters' or 'liberators' (recently the KLA-Kosovo Liberation Army). At the same time, the leader of the established political power where the conflict is being orchestrated is demonized and, on cue, referred to as 'an- other Hitler' (take your pick: Saddam Hussein, Milosevic, Kadaffi, etc.). The 'freedom fighters' are not infrequently assembled from a local crimi- nal element (i.e. KLA, drug traffickers). In the spirit of true Machiavellian de- ceit, the same NWO strategists are equally involved in covertly arm- ing and advising the leader of the established power as well (the Illuminati always profits from any armed conflict by loaning money, arming, and sup- plying all parties involved in a war).

The conflict is drawn to the world stage by the controlled media outlets with a barrage of photos and video tape reports of horrific and bloody atrocities suffered by innocent civilians. The cry goes up "Something has to be done!" And that is the desired Reaction (note: the same technique is presently be- ing used to bring about gun control in the United States).

The NWO puppeteers then provide the Solution by sending in UN 'Peace Keepers' (Bosnia) or a UN 'Coalition Force' (Gulf War) or NATO Bombers and then ground troops (Kosovo). Once installed, the 'peace keepers' never leave (Bosnia, Kosovo). The idea is to have NWO controlled ground troops in all major countries or strategic areas where significant resistance to the New World Order takeover is likely to be encountered.

82

East Timor, Indonesia. (9/14/99) Virtually, the same strategy used to occupy Kosovo with UN/NATO troops was applied by the NWO manipulators to take military control of East Timor. Once again, the same morality play is trotted out for public consumption: the local evil and demonic Indonesian Army trained militias responsible for the slaughter of innocent civilians following the August 30 vote for Independence (from Indonesian control), must be stopped at all costs. This time, Australia (to keep up the appearance of an 'in- ternational' humanitarian effort) will lead the charge with 'peacekeeping' troops.

Of course, it didn't take long for Madeline Albright to announce that US 'sup- port assets' will be part of the "UN Peacekeeping Team". In a front page sto- ry in the LA Times (9/13/99), Mike Jendrzejczyk of Human Rights Watch (an Illuminati front group) in Washington DC said that it's "crucial" that "peace- keepers have the authority to disarm militia forces and any Indonesian sol- diers actively working with them". ]

The local, sovereign military force is either defeated (i.e. Yugoslavia) or, as in the case of the United States itself, replaced by foreign UN "Partnership For Peace" (PFP) troops who take over the jobs of US soldiers who have been sent overseas on 'peacekeeping' missions. In addition to being killed in ground conflicts on foreign soil, US military forces will likely be reduced in the next few years through disease induced attrition (i.e. from mandato- ry Anthrax Vaccinations required of all US military personnel).

These vaccinations will, in all probability, eventually produce the symptoms of the so-called Gulf War Illness, which was acquired by a certain percentage of Gulf War soldiers who were given a "special" anthrax vaccine (intended by the Illuminati/CIA as a test run to ascertain how quickly (and fatally) the dis- ease would progress with a substantial population of healthy young men and women).

The corporate portion of the NWO pyramid seems to be dominated first and foremost by Jewish Cabalist international bankers and the big pharmaceuti- cal cartels, as well as other major multinational corporations.

83

The Royal Family of England, namely Queen Elizabeth II and the House of Windsor, (who are, in fact, descendants of the German arm of European Roy- alty -the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha family-changed the name to Windsor in 1914 ), are high level players, along with the British oligarchy which controls the up- per strata of the Illuminati. The decision making Illuminati nerve centres of this effort are in the London (especially the City of London), Basel Switzer- land, and Brussels (NATO headquarters).

The United Nations, along with all the agencies working under the UN um- brella, such as the World Health Organization (WHO), are full time players in this scheme. Similarly, NATO is a military tool of the NWO.

The leaders of all major industrial countries like the United States, England, Germany, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, etc. (E.g. members of the "G7/G8" ) are active and fully cooperative participants in this conspira- cy. In this century, the degree of control exerted by the Illuminati has ad- vanced to the point that only certain hand-picked individuals, who are groomed and selected by the Illuminati are even eligible to become the prime minister or president of countries like England, Germany, or The Unit- ed States.

It didn't matter whether Bill Clinton or Bob Dole won the Presidency in 1996, the results would have been the same (except maybe for Zipper Gate ). Both men are playing on the same team for the same ball club. Anyone who isn't a team player is taken out: i.e. President Kennedy, Ali Bhutto (Pakistan) and Aldo Moro (Italy).More recently, Admiral Borda and William Colby were also killed because they were either unwilling to go along with the conspiracy to destroy America, weren't cooperating in some capacity, or were attempting to expose/ thwart the Takeover agenda.

Most of the major wars, political upheavals, and econom- ic depression/recessions of the past 100 years (and earlier) were careful- ly planned and instigated by the machinations of these elites.

84

They include The Spanish-American War (1898), World War I and World War II; the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917; The Great Depression of 1929 - 1939; the Rise of Nazi Germany; the Korean War; the Vietnam War; the1989- 91"fall" of Soviet Communism, the 1991 Gulf War; and the recent War in Ko- sovo. Even the French Revolution of 1788 was an orchestrated into existence by the Bavarian Illuminati and the House of Rothchild.

FEMA

In America, the Federal Emer- gency Management Admin- istration (FEMA) was created in 1979 under Presidential Mem- orandum 32 authored for Pres- ident Carter by Prof. Samuel P. Huntington, a Harvard profes- sor and former FEMA Advisory Board chairman. Huntington wrote the Seminal Peace for the Trilateral Commission in the mid 70's, in which he criti- cized democracy and economic development as outdated ide- as. As co-author of another re- port prepared for the Trilateral Commission, The Crisis of De- mocracy, Huntington wrote:

"We have come to recognize that there are potential desirable limits to eco- nomic growth. There are also potentially desirable limits to the indefinite ex- tension of political democracy. A government which lacks authority will have little ability short of cataclysmic crisis to impose on its people the sacrifices which may be necessary."

85

Huntington's ideas were rewritten into National Security Decision Directive #47(NSDD47), which was enacted in July 1982 by President Reagan. Treated as a passing footnote by the media, this law identified legitimate areas to be upgraded to maintain national defence, but it also laid the groundwork for Emergency Mobilization Preparedness, a plan under which existing so- cio/economic regulations or other legal constraints would be waived in the event of a national emergency.

This plan was further strengthened in Public Law 101-647, signed by Presi- dent Bush in November 1990.What it boils down to is this: in the event that the President declares a national emergency, for any reason (from major earthquakes to increased international tensions or economic /financial crisis of any stripe), FEMA can then, at their discretion, implement Executive Or- ders 10995 through 11005. These Executive Orders permit a takeover by FE- MA of local, state, and national governments and the suspension of constitu- tional guarantees. FEMA will have the authority to exert any sort of control that it deems necessary upon the American public. A trained National Police Force, formally referred to by the name of Multi-Jurisdictional Task Force (MJTF), wearing black uniforms and composed of:

1 specially selected US military personnel 2 foreign military units carrying United Nations ID cards, and 3 specially trained existing police groups from larger metro- politan American cities.

These members of the MJTF will implement and enforce martial law under the direction and control of FEMA. The President and Congress are out of the loop.

FEMA is the Trojan Horse by which the New World Order will implement overt, police-state control over the American populace.

86

War on Drugs

The "War on Drugs" is a cruel joke. The US government, specifically the CIA, is the biggest 'drug lord' on the planet. Drug money is used to pay for innu- merable 'black projects', including the construction of huge underground cit- ies housing both humans and aliens working with the secret US government.

The instigation of a trumped-up war as a cover for amassing fortunes can be dated back to at least the 12th Century when only a core group of- nine members of an Illuminati group called the Knights Templar, the military arm of an Illuminati secret society known as the Priory of Sion, kicked off the Crusades that lasted for over a century and a half.

A rift later developed between the Templars and the Priory of Sion when Je- rusalem was lost to Saracen Turks in 1187. In 1307, the king of France, Philippe the Fair (a Merovingian Illuminati), coveted the wealth and was jealous of the Templars' power. The French king, being a puppet of the Priory of Sion, set out to arrest all the Templars in France on October 13.

While many Templars were seized and tortured, including their Grand Mas- ter, Jacques de Molay, many other Templars (who had been tipped off) es- caped. They eventually resurfaced in Portugal, in Malta (as the Knights of Malta) and later in Scotland as The Scottish Rites of Free Masonry.

The acquisition and consolidation of ever greater wealth, natural resources, total political power, and control over others are the motivating force which drives the decisions of the Illuminati. The toll in human suffering and the loss of innocent lives are non-issues for these individuals, who are aligned with very dark and malevolent 4th dimensional aliens. The dominant group of 4th dimensional malevolent aliens controlling and manipulating the human Ilu- minati are known as Draconian or Drakos Reptilians. Not all alien reptilians are of a negative spiritual orientation.

87

Mind Control

Recent revelations from deprogrammed Illuminati (government) mind con- trolled individuals such as Arizona Wilder (The Biggest Secret),Cisco Wheeler ( The Illuminati Formula to Create an Undetectable Total Mind Con- trol Slave), Cathy O'Brien ( Formation of America), and Brice Tay- lor (Thanks for the Memories) leave NO DOUBT that the upper levels of the Illuminati engage in Satanic rituals which usually include the killing of young children, the drinking of human blood and the consuming of flesh and human organs.

The details of the Illuminati conspiracy are brilliantly laid out in the books of David Icke (Tales from the Time Loop, Children of the Matrix, Alice in Won- derland and the World Trace Centre Disaster, The Biggest Secret, The Truth Shall Set You Free, and I am Me, I am Free; and in three books by Dr. John Coleman (Conspirators' Hierarchy: The Story of The Committee of 300; One World Order: Socialist Dictatorship; and Diplomacy by Deception To be Continued & Expanded...

Three World Wars

What is the New World Order?

New World Order Definition

Introduction

The following article is extracted from an excellent analysis of the New World Order by author Ken Adachi which can be found at educate- yourself.org.

The term New World Order (NWO) has been used by numerous politi- cians through the ages, and is a generic term used to refer to a worldwide conspiracy being orchestrated by an extremely powerful and influential group of genetically-related individuals (at least at the highest echelons) which include many of the world's wealthiest people, top political leaders, and corporate elite, as well as members of the so-called Black Nobility of Europe (dominated by the British Crown) whose goal is to create a One World (fascist) Government, stripped of nationalistic and regional bounda- ries, that is obedient to their agenda.

Listen to the Zionist* banker, Paul Warburg:

"We will have a world government whether you like it or not. The only question is whether that government will be achieved by conquest or con- sent." (February 17, 1950, as he testified before the US Senate). Their intention is to affect complete and total control over every human be- ing on the planet and to dramatically reduce the world's population by two thirds. While the name New World Order is the term most frequently used today to loosely refer to anyone involved in this conspiracy, the study of ex- actly who makes up this group is a complex and intricate one. For further research sources, please see the side bar on the left.

In 1992, Dr John Coleman published Conspirators Hierarchy: The Story of the Committee of 300. With laudable scholarship and meticulous research, Dr Coleman identifies the players and carefully details the New World Order agenda of worldwide domination and control. On page 161 of the Conspira- tors Hierarchy, Dr Coleman accurately summarizes the intent and purpose of the Committee of 300 as follows:

"A One World Government and one-unit monetary system, under perma- nent non-elected hereditary oligarchists who self-select from among their numbers in the form of a feudal system as it was in the Middle Ages. In this One World entity, population will be limited by restrictions on the number of children per family, diseases, wars, famines, until 1 billion people who are useful to the ruling class, in areas which will be strictly and clearly de- fined, remain as the total world population.

There will be no middle class, only rulers and the servants. All laws will be uniform under a legal system of world courts practicing the same unified code of laws, backed up by a One World Government police force and a One World unified military to enforce laws in all former countries where no na- tional boundaries shall exist. The system will be on the basis of a welfare state; those who are obedient and subservient to the One World Govern- ment will be rewarded with the means to live; those who are rebellious will simply be starved to death or be declared outlaws, thus a target for anyone who wishes to kill them. Privately owned firearms or weapons of any kind will be prohibited."

Why the Conspiracy is Unknown

The sheer magnitude and complex web of deceit surrounding the individu- als and organizations involved in this conspiracy is mind boggling, even for the most astute among us. Most people react with disbelief and scepticism towards the topic, unaware that they have been conditioned(brainwashed) to react with scepticism by institutional and media influences. Author and de-programmer Fritz Spring Meier (The Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines) says that most people have built in "slides" that short circuit the mind's critical examination process when it comes to certain sensitive topics.

90

"Slides", Spring Meier reports, is a CIA term for a conditioned type of re- sponse which dead ends a person's thinking and terminates debate or ex- amination of the topic at hand. For example, the mention of the word "con- spiracy" often solicits a slide response with many people.

What most people believe to be "Public Opinion" is in reality carefully crafted and scripted propaganda designed to elicit a desired behavioural re- sponse from the public. Public opinion polls are really taken with the intent of gauging the public's acceptance of the New World Order's planned pro- grams. A strong showing in the polls tells them that the programming is "taking", while a poor showing tells the NWO manipulators that they have to recast or "tweak" the programming until the desired response is achieved.

The NWO Modus Operandi

The NWO global conspirators manifest their agenda through the skilful ma- nipulation of human emotions, especially fear. In the past centuries, they have repeatedly utilized a contrivance that NWO researcher and au- thor David Icke has characterized in his latest book, The Biggest Secret, asProblem, Reaction, and Solution.

The technique is as follows: NWO strategists create the Problem - by fund- ing , assembling, and training an "opposition" group to stimulate turmoil in an established political power (sovereign country, region, continent, etc.) that they wish to impinge upon and thus create opposing factions in a con- flict that the NWO themselves maneuvered into existence. In recent dec- ades, so called opposition groups are usually identified in the media as 'freedom fighters' or 'liberators'.

At the same time, the leader of the established political power where the conflict is being orchestrated is demonized and, on cue, referred to as 'an- other Hitler' (take your pick: Saddam Hussein, Milosevic, Kadaffi, etc.). The 'freedom fighters' are not infrequently assembled from a local criminal ele- ment (i.e. KLA, drug traffickers).

91

In the spirit of true Machiavellian deceit, the same NWO strategists are equally involved in covertly arming and advising the leader of the estab- lished power as well (the NWO always profits from any armed conflict by loaning money, arming, and supplying all parties involved in a war). The conflict is drawn to the world stage by the controlled media outlets with a barrage of photos and video tape reports of horrific and bloody atrocities suffered by innocent civilians. The cry goes up "Something has to be done!" And that is the desired Reaction.

The NWO puppeteers then provide the Solution by sending in UN 'Peace Keepers' (Bosnia) or a UN 'Coalition Force' (Gulf War) or NATO Bombers and then ground troops (Kosovo), or the military to 'search for Weapons of Mass Destruction', which of course are never found. Once installed, the 'peace keepers' never leave. The idea is to have NWO controlled ground troops in all major countries or strategic areas where significant resistance to the New World Order takeover is likely to be encountered. Who is the NWO?

The corporate portion of the NWO is dominated by international bankers, oil barons and pharmaceutical cartels, as well as other major multinational corporations. The Royal Family of England, namely Queen Elizabeth II and the House of Windsor, (who are, in fact, descendants of the German arm of European Royalty - the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha family - changed the name to Windsor in 1914), are high level players in the oligarchy which controls the upper strata of the NWO. The decision making nerve centres of this effort are in London (especially the City of London), Basel Switzerland, and Brussels (NATO headquarters).

The United Nations, along with all the agencies working under the UN um- brella, such as the World Health Organization (WHO), are full time players in this scheme. Similarly, NATO is a military tool of the NWO.

92

The leaders of all major industrial countries like the United States, England, Germany, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, etc. (members of the "G7/G8" ) are active and fully cooperative participants in this conspiracy. In this century, the degree of control exerted by the NWO has advanced to the point that only certain hand-picked individuals, who are groomed and selected are even eligible to become the prime minister or president of countries like England, Germany, or The United States.

It didn't matter whether Bill Clinton or Bob Dole won the Presidency in 1996, the results would have been the same. Both men are playing on the same team for the same ball club. Anyone who isn't a team player is taken out: i.e. President Kennedy, Ali Bhutto (Pakistan) and Aldo Moro (Italy). More recently, Admiral Borda and William Colby were also killed because they were either unwilling to go along with the conspiracy to destroy Amer- ica, weren't cooperating in some capacity, or were attempting to expose/ thwart the takeover agenda.

The NWO's Role in Shaping History

Most of the major wars, political upheavals, and economic depres- sion/recessions of the past 100 years (and earlier) were carefully planned and instigated by the machinations of these elites. They include The Span- ish-American War (1898), World War I and World War II; The Great Depres- sion; the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917; the Rise of Nazi Germany; the Kore- an War; the Vietnam War; the 1989-91 "fall" of Soviet Communism; the 1991 Gulf War; the War in Kosovo; and the two Iraq wars. Even the French Revolution was orchestrated into existence by elements of the NWO. The instigation of a trumped-up war as a cover for amassing fortunes which can be dated back to at least the 12th Century when only a core group of nine members of the Knights Templar, kicked off the Crusades that lasted for over a century and a half.

93

The core group mentioned above have been reported as being the military arm of a secret society known as the Priory of Sion, but this has been proven to be a hoax,

In 1307, the king of France, Philippe the Fair, coveted the wealth and was jealous of the Templars' power. The French king set out to arrest all the Templars in France on October 13. While many Templars were seized and tortured, including their Grand Master, Jacques de Molay, and many other Templars (who had been tipped off) escaped. They eventually resurfaced in Portugal, in Malta (as the Knights of Malta) and later in Scotland as The Scottish Rites of Freemasonry, with Albert Pike playing a key role in defining a plan for establishing a world government.

The acquisition and consolidation of ever greater wealth, natural resources, total political power, and control over others are the motivating forces which drive the decisions of the NWO leaders. The toll in human suffering and the loss of innocent lives are non issues for these individuals.

1 .September 11, 2001

Thanks to the power of the web and live broadcasts on television, the con- spiracy theories surrounding the events of 9/11 - when terrorists attacked the World Trade Centre in New York and the Pentagon in Washington - have surpassed those of Roswell and JFK in traction. Despite repeated claims by al- Qaeda that it planned, organised and orchestrated the attacks, several offi- cial and unofficial investigations into the collapse of the Twin Towers which concluded that structural failure was responsible and footage of the events themselves, the conspiracy theories continue to grow in strength. At the milder end of the spectrum are the theorists who believe that the US government had prior warning of the attacks but did not do enough to stop them. Others believe that the Bush administration deliberately turned a blind eye to those warnings because it wanted a pretext to launch wars in the Middle East to usher in another century of American hegemony. A large group of people - collectively called the 9/11 Truth Movement - cite evidence that an airliner did not hit the Pentagon and that the World Trade Centre could not have been brought down by airliner impacts and burning aviation fuel alone. This final group points to video evidence which they claim shows puffs of smoke - so-called demolition squibs - emerging from the Twin Tow- ers at levels far below the aircraft impact zones and prior to the collapses. They also believe that, on the day itself, the US air force was deliberately stood down or sent on exercises to prevent intervention that could have saved the lives of nearly 3,000 people.

Many witnesses - including firemen, policemen and people who were inside the towers at the time - claim to have heard explosions below the aircraft impacts (including in basement levels) and before both the collapses and the attacks themselves. As with the assassination of JFK, the official inquiry into the events - the 9/11 Commission Report - is widely derided by the conspira- cy community and held up as further evidence that 9/11 was an "inside job". Scientific journals have consistently rejected these hypotheses.

96

2 The assassination of John F Kennedy

The 35th President of the United States was shot on Friday, November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas at 12.30 pm. He was fatally wounded by gunshots while riding with his wife - Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy - in a motorcade. The ten-month investigation of the Warren Commission of 1963 to 1964, the United States House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) of 1976 to 1979, and other government investigations concluded that the President had been assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald - who was himself shot dead by Jack Ruby while in police custody.

But doubts about the official explanation and the conclusion that Oswald was the lone gunman firing from the Texas Book Depository overlooking Dea- ley Plaza where Kennedy was hit surfaced soon after the commission report. Footage of the motorcade taken by Abraham Zapruder on 8mm film support- ed the growing belief that at least four shots were fired - not the three that the Warren Commission claimed. The moments of impact recorded on the film also suggested that at least one of the shots came from a completely dif- ferent direction to those supposedly fired by Oswald - evidence backed up by testimony of several eye witnesses. Many believed that several shots were fired by gunmen hiding behind a picket fence on a grassy knoll overlooking the plaza.

The assassination is still the subject of widespread speculation and has spawned numerous conspiracy theories, though none of these has been proven. In 1979, the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) found both the original FBI investigation and the Warren Commission Report to be seriously flawed. The HSCA also concluded that there were at least four shots fired and that it was probable that a conspiracy existed. However, later stud- ies, including one by the National Academy of Sciences, have called into question the accuracy of the evidence used by the HSCA to support its finding of four shots.

3 A crashed at Roswell in 1947

The event that kick-started more than a half century of conspiracy theories is surrounding unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Something did crash at Ro- swell, New Mexico, sometime before July 7, 1947 and - at first - the US au- thorities stated explicitly that this was a flying saucer or disk - as shown by the splash story on that day's Roswell Daily Record, pictured. Numerous wit- nesses reported seeing metallic debris scattered over a wide area and at least one reported seeing a blazing craft crossing the sky shortly before it crashed. In recent years, witnesses have added significant new details, including claims of a large military operation dedicated to recovering alien craft and aliens themselves, at as many as 11 crash sites, and alleged witness intimida- tion. In 1989, former mortician claimed that he was involved in alien autopsies which were carried out at the Roswell air force base.

The conspiracy theory has been fanned by the US military repeatedly chang- ing its story. Within hours of the army telling reporters that it had recovered a crashed saucer, senior officers insisted that the only thing that had fallen from the sky had been a weather balloon. A report by the Office of the Secre- tary of the Air Force released in 1995, concluded that the reported recovered material in 1947 was likely debris from a secret government program called Project Mogul, which involved high altitude balloons meant to detect sound waves generated by Soviet atom bomb tests and ballistic missiles.

A second report, released in 1997, concluded that reports of alien bodies were likely a combination of innocently transformed memories of military accidents involving injured or killed personnel, and the recovery of anthro- pomorphic dummies in military programs like Project High Dive conducted in the 1950s.

Since the late 1990s the debate about Roswell has polarised with several former pro-UFO researchers concluding that the craft was, indeed, part of a US military project and that it was, most likely, some sort of weather balloon.

98

But further evidence has emerged - notably a signed affidavit by Walter Haut, the Roswell Army Air Field public affairs officer who had drafted the initial press release on July 8, 1947.

People who think that the Apollo moon landings were not all that they seemed at the time believe that Nasa faked some or all of the landings. Some of the theories surrounding this subject are that the Apollo astronauts did not land on the Moon; Nasa and possibly others intentionally deceived the public into believing the landings did occur by manufacturing, destroying, or tampering with evidence, including photos, telemetry tapes, transmissions, and rock samples; and that Nasa and possibly others continue to actively par- ticipate in the conspiracy to this day.

Those who think that Nasa faked some or all of the landings base their theo- ries on photographs from the lunar surface which they claim show camera crosshairs partially behind rocks, a flag planted by Buzz Aldrin moving in a strange way, the lack of stars over the lunar landscape and shadows falling in different direction. Many commentators have published detailed rebuttals to the hoax claims, and these theories have been generally discounted but be- lief in them - particularly on the web - persists.

5 The Illuminati and the New World Order

A conspiracy in which powerful and secretive groups (the Illuminati, the Bild- erberg Group and other shadowy cabals) are plotting to rule mankind with a single world government. Many historical events are said to have been engi- neered by these groups with one goal - the New World Order (NWO). The groups use political finance, social engineering, mind control, and fear-based propaganda to achieve their aims. Signs of the NWO are said to be the pyra- mid on the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States, inset, strange and disturbing murals at Denver International Airport, pictured, and pentagrams in city plans.

99

International organisations such as the World Bank, the IMF, the European Union, the United Nations, and NATO are listed as founding organisations of the New World Order.

6 The Jesus conspiracy

The theory that launched a blockbusting novel (The Da Vinci Code), a film of the same name and a plagiarism battle in the courts (with the authors of the Holy Blood and holy grail). Those who believe in this - and they seem to number in their millions - think that Jesus married Mary Magdalene, had one or more children, and that those children or their descendants emigrated to southern France. Once there, they intermarried with the noble families that would eventually become the Merovingian dynasty, whose special claim to the throne of France is championed today by a secret society called the Pri- ory of Sion.

7. Diana, Princess of Wales, was murdered

Why won't this one go away? Despite an official inquiry that found no evi- dence of a plot by MI6 or any other entity to murder the princess and Dodi Fayed in 1997, fevered speculation continues. The theory is that rogue ele- ments in the British secret service decided that Diana's relationship with Fayed was a threat to the monarchy and, therefore, to the British state. A plot was hatched in which a white Fiat Uno carrying agents was sent to blind and disorientate driver Henri Paul as he sped through the Paris underpass pursued by photographers. Later, Paul's blood was switched with a sample of somebody who had drunk a lot of alcohol. The trouble with the theory? Not a shred of evidence exists to support it.

8. Elvis Presley faked his own death

What can we say? A persistent belief is that "the King" did not die in 1977. Many fans persist in claiming he is still alive, that he went into hiding for var- ious reasons. This claim is allegedly backed up by thousands of so-called sightings. The main reason given in support of the belief that Presley faked his death is that, on his grave, his middle name Aron is spelt as Aaron.

100

But "Aaron" is actually the genuine middle name for Presley. Apparently, ei- ther Presley or his parents tried to change the name to "Aron" to make it more similar to Presley's stillborn twin, Jesse Garon Presley. Two tabloid newspapers ran articles covering the continuing "life" of Presley after his death, in great detail, including a broken leg from a motorcycle accident, all the way up to his purported "real death" in the mid 1990s.

9. Operation Northwood’s

A genuine conspiracy involving a plan by the Joint Chiefs of Staff to launch a fake Cuban terror campaign on American soil to persuade the US public to support an invasion against Castro. The plan involved bombings and the sim- ultaneous hijacking and blowing up of American airliners. The operation was quashed by President Kennedy leading many to speculate that it was linked to his assassination a year later. The plan has also been linked by theorists who believe that the September 11, 2001 attacks were a so-called "inside job" because of the use of airliners.

10. MK-ULTRA

The code name for a covert mind-control and chemical interrogation research programme, run by the Office of Scientific Intelligence. The programme be- gan in the early 1950s, continuing at least through the late 1960s, using US citizens as test subjects. Project MK-ULTRA was brought first to wide public attention in 1975 by Congress and by the Rockefeller Commission. Investiga- tive efforts were hampered by the fact that CIA Director Richard Helms or- dered all MK-ULTRA files destroyed in 1973. Although the CIA insisted that MK-ULTRA-type experiments were abandoned, CIA veteran Victor Marchetti has stated in various interviews that the agency routinely conducts disinfor- mation campaigns and that CIA mind control research continued. In a 1977 interview, Marchetti specifically called the CIA claim that MK-ULTRA was abandoned a "cover story".

101

Conspiracy theorists believe that MK-ULTRA was behind many so-called black-ops: Lawrence Teeter, the attorney for Sirhan Sirhan, the man convict- ed of the assassination of Robert Kennedy, pictured, believed Sirhan was op- erating under MK-ULTRA mind control techniques. Furthermore, Jonestown, the location in Guyana where members of the Jim Jones cult and Peoples Temple committed mass suicide, was thought to be a test site for MK-ULTRA medical experiments.

11. North American Union

The North American Union (NAU) is a theoretical regional union of Canada, Mexico and the United States similar in structure to the European Union, sometimes including a common currency called the amero. Theorists who be- lieve that the three countries are planning for this believe that it is part of a global conspiracy to set up something called the New World Order (NWO). Officials from all three nations have repeatedly denied that there are plans to create a NAU although the idea has been proposed in academic circles, either as a union or as a North American community as proposed by the Independ- ent Task Force on North America. The amero received support in 1999 from Canadian economist Herbert Grubel, a senior fellow of the Fraser Institute think-tank, in a book entitled The Case for the Amero. Robert Pastor, vice- chairman of the Independent Task Force on North America, supported Gru- bel's conclusions in his 2001 book Toward a North American Community, stating that: "In the long term, the amero is in the best interests of all three countries".

12. Shakespeare was somebody else

Who really was the English language's greatest writer? Among the numerous alternative candidates that have been proposed Francis Bacon, Christopher Marlowe, William Stanley (6th Earl of Derby) and Edward de Vere (17th Earl of Oxford), are the most popular. Theorists believe there is a lack of evidence proving that the actor and businessman sometimes known as Shaksper of Stratford was responsible for the body of works that bear his name. Very lit- tle biographical information exists about Shakespeare.

102

13. The disappearance of Shergar

On February 8, 1983, a group of men wearing balaclavas and armed with guns turned up at the Ballymany Stud Farm in Co Kildare, Ireland and took a hostage – Jim Fitzgerald, the stud's head groom. "We've come for Shergar," they said. "We want £2m for him." Shergar was arguably the greatest race- horse to have ever lived. But 25 years after he was kidnapped from Bally- many the mystery of exactly what happened to him after he was snatched that night still lingers. The theories are numerous with the IRA, Colonel Gadaffi and the Mafia featuring among the most lurid. One story suggests that the IRA kidnapped the horse for Gadaffi in return for weapons. Another suggests that the New Orleans mafia took him.

14. Paul is dead

“Paul is dead” is an urban legend alleging that Paul McCartney died in a car crash 1966 and was replaced by a look-alike and sound-alike. "Evidence" for McCartney’s death consists of “clues” found among the Beatles’ many re- cordings. Hundreds have been cited at various times by various people. They include statements allegedly heard when a song is played backwards, sym- bolism found in obscure lyrics, and ambiguous imagery on album covers. A few of them are well known, such as the fact that McCartney is the only bare- footed Beatle and is out of step with the others on the cover of Abbey Road, pictured.

15. The July 7, 2005 Tube bombings

One of the supposed mysteries surrounding the 7/7 attacks is this image, used by several news outlets, of the bombers entering Luton station on their way to London at around 7.20am on July 7. Theorists claim this image is fake because the man in the white hat - believed to be Mohammed Sidique Khan - has been electronically placed on the picture after it was taken. They claim that it shows his arm behind a railing while the rest of his body is in front and that the bar behind his head goes across and in front of his face. Theorists postulate, among other things, that the bombs which went off on the Tube trains were actually under the floors of the vehicles and not in the alleged plotters' back packs.

103

From the Moscow apartment bombings to the Indian Ocean tsu- nami. From Pearl Harbour to Peak Oil, the Philadelphia experiment and Pan Am flight 103. Every major event of the last 2,000 years has prompted a conspiracy theory and here we examine those with the biggest followings and the most longevity.

16. The Moscow apartment bombings

Former GRU officer Aleksey Galkin and former FSB officer the late Alexander Litvinenko (who was killed with Polonium-210 in London in November 2006) and other whistle-blowers from the Russian government and security ser- vices have asserted that the 1999 Russian apartment bombings were opera- tions perpetrated by the FSB, the successor to the KGB, to justify the second Russian war against Chechnya.

17. Black or unmarked helicopters

The concept became popular in the American militia movement, and in asso- ciated political circles, in the 1990s as an alleged symbol and warning sign of a military takeover of part or all of the United States. Rumours would circu- late that, for instance, the United Nations patrolled the US with black heli- copters, or that federal agents used black helicopters to enforce wildlife laws. In Britain, a similar conspiracy theory known as "phantom helicopters" has been reported since the mid 1970s. This concept relates phantom helicopters to UFOs and alien invasion rather than to martial law.

18. Harold Wilson was a Soviet agent

Soviet defector Anatoliy Golitsyn is thought to have claimed that Wilson was a KGB spy. He further claimed that Hugh Gaitskell was assassinated by the KGB so that he could be replaced as Labour leader by Harold Wilson. Fur- thermore, former MI5 officer Peter Wright claimed in his memoirs - Spy- catcher - that he had been told that Wilson was a Soviet agent.

104

MI5 repeatedly investigated Wilson over the course of several years before conclusively deciding that he had no relationship with the KGB. On the BBC TV programme, The Plot Against Harold Wilson, broadcast in 2006, it was claimed that the military was on the point of launching a coup d'état against Wilson in 1974. Wilson himself told the BBC that he feared he was being un- dermined by MI5 in the late 1960s after devaluation of sterling and again in 1974 after he narrowly won an election against Edward Heath.

19. The Protocols of the Elders of Zion

Despite being utterly discredited for at least 100 years, belief in this docu- ment has proved remarkably resilient on the internet. The text takes the form of an instruction manual to a new member of the "elders," describing how they will run the world through control of the media and finance, and replace the traditional social order with one based on mass manipulation. Scholars generally agree that the Okhrana, the secret police of the Russian Empire, fabricated the text in the late 1890s or early 1900s but belief in it still persists - particularly in the Middle East.

20. The peak oil conspiracy

Peak oil (a theory in itself) is the supposed peak of oil production during and after which demand for oil outstrips supply sending prices through the roof. The peak oil conspiracy theorists believe that peak oil is a fraud concocted by the oil industries to increase prices amid concerns about future supplies. The oil industry is aware of vast reserves of untapped oil, but does not utilise them in order to maintain the illusion of scarcity, they claim.

21. Pearl Harbour was allowed to happen

Theorists believe that President Franklin Roosevelt provoked the Japanese attack on the US naval base in Hawaii in December 1942, knew about it in advance and covered up his failure to warn his fleet commanders. He appar- ently needed the attack to provoke Hitler into declaring war on the US be- cause the American public and Congress were overwhelmingly against enter- ing the war in Europe.

105

Theorists believe that the US was warned by the governments of Britain, the Netherlands, Australia, Peru, Korea and the Soviet Union that a surprise at- tack on Pearl Harbor was coming and that, furthermore, the Americans had intercepted and broken all the important Japanese codes in the run up to the attack.

22. The Philadelphia Experiment

Popularised by the Charles Berlitz novel of the same name, conspiracy theo- rists believe that during an experiment at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard in October 1943, the US Navy destroyer Eldridge was rendered invisible. Ac- cording to some accounts, the scientists on the experiment found a way to bend light around an object but that the experiment went wrong and El- dridge was transported through space and time, reappearing at sea. Several sailors, it is said, were badly hurt when the experiment went wrong and some were melded into the ship's superstructure. The US Navy has denied that the experiment ever took place.

23. Pan Am Flight 103

Pan Am Flight 103 was Pan American's third daily scheduled transatlantic flight from Heathrow to New York John F. Kennedy International Airport. On December 21, 1988, the aircraft flying this route - a Boeing 747 - was de- stroyed by a bomb, killing all 259 people on board and 11 people on the ground. The remains landed around Lockerbie in southern Scotland. A popu- lar theory for which no evidence has been produced suggests that the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) had set up a protected drug route from Eu- rope to the United States - allegedly called Operation Corea - which allowed Syrian drug dealers to ship heroin to the US using Pan Am flights. The CIA al- legedly protected the suitcases containing the drugs and made sure they were not searched. On the day of the bombing, terrorists exchanged suitcas- es: one with drugs for one with a bomb. Another version of this theory is that the CIA knew in advance this exchange would take place, but let it happen anyway, because the protected drugs route was a rogue operation, and the American intelligence officers on the flight had found out about it, and were on their way to Washington to tell their superiors.

106

24. Fluoridation

Fluoride is commonly added to drinking water as a way to reduce tooth de- cay. However, there has been some evidence that there could be some harm- ful side effects from fluoride and conspiracy theorists believe that this infor- mation is known and recognised by those responsible for adding the fluoride, but that they continue the practice regardless. Drug companies have been targeted as possible beneficiaries, as they will profit from a population with ill-health. Another motive is that fluoride lowers mental abilities thereby "dumbing down" the entire population.

25. The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami

A popular theory in the Muslim world is that the tsunami could have been caused by an Indian nuclear experiment in which Israeli and American nucle- ar experts participated. Several newspapers in Egypt and the Middle East al- leged that India, in its heated nuclear race with Pakistan, has acquired so- phisticated nuclear technology from the US and Israel, both of which "showed readiness to co-operate with India in experiments to exterminate humankind," beginning with the heavily populated Muslim regions of south- east Asia, where the bulk of casualties took place.

26. Plastic coffins and concentration camps

Just outside Atlanta, Georgia, beside a major road are approximately 500,000 plastic coffins. Stacked neatly and in full view, the coffins are allegedly owned by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (Fema). Conspiracy theorists believe that Fema has also set up several concentration camps in the US in preparation for the imposition of a state of martial law and the kill- ing of millions of Americans. They suggest that the financial crisis will be used to justify the imposition of a police state.

107

27. HAARP

More than 200 miles east of Anchorage, Alaska, is the Pentagon's High- frequency Active Auroral Research Program, officially an enormous experi- ment to heat the ionosphere with radio waves. But conspiracy theorists be- lieve the project is a weapon to bring down aircraft and missiles by lifting sections of the atmosphere, cause earthquakes or even a huge weather mod- ification machine.

28. The Aids virus was created in a laboratory

Based on the theories of Dr William Campbell Douglass, many believe that that HIV was genetically engineered in 1974 by the World Health Organisa- tion. Dr Douglass believed that it was a cold-blooded attempt to create a kill- er virus which was then used in a successful experiment in Africa. Others have claimed that it was created by the CIA or the KGB as a means to reduce world population.

29. Global warming is a hoax

Some climate change doubters believe that man-made global warming is a conspiracy designed to soften up the world's population to higher taxation, controls on lifestyle and more authoritarian government. These sceptics cite a fall in global temperatures since last year and a levelling off in the rise in temperature since 1998 as evidence.

30. Chemtrails

Chemtrail conspiracy theorists believe that some contrails, which consist of ice crystals or water vapour condensed behind aircraft, actually result from chemicals or biological agents being deliberately sprayed at high altitude for some undisclosed purpose. The staple of right-wing radio shows in the US, there is fevered speculation that the chemicals being sprayed are part of a wider plot that involves the so-called New World Order and is being directed by shadowy forces within the government. The existence of chemtrails has been repeatedly denied by federal agencies and scientists.
