The bal masque is the ideal vehicle for this program, because the World Order gained its present power in Europe of the nineteenth

century.

It was a truism among the old European aristocracy that "Balls are given for those who are not invited".

The guests attend because of duty or career, to spend an evening in the company of boring persons when they would much rather be elsewhere.

The reward of being a guest at a bal masque is to be one of the Knowing Ones, those who know which masque hid the face of the King, which costume is that of the Grand Vizier.

The other guests never knew whether they were talking to a mere courtier, or to a powerful

personage.

The masses, with their faces pressed against the windows of the ballroom, know none of the celebrants, and will never know.

This is the technique of the World Order, to be masked in mystery,

with its hierarchy protected by their anonymity and their masks,

so that those who revolt will strike out against the wrong targets, insignificant officials who are expendable.
