COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS (1 of 2)

What began as a series of meetings organized by Col. Edward Mandell House, Pres. Woodrow Wilson’s confidential adviser during WWI, is now widely acknowledged to be the biggest globalist secret society – the Council on Foreign Relations.

In New York in 1917, Wilson assembled about 100 important men to discuss a peace settlement and postwar plans. The self-styled “inquiry” wrote most of Woodrow Wilson’s 14 points, which he put before Congress in January 1918. They proposed the removal of “all economic barriers” between nations, free trade, and the formation of a “general association of nations” (the League of Nations). Wilson’s peace terms formed the basis of the Treaty of Versailles that required Germany to pay crippling reparations, and caused the depression that fostered Adolf Hitler’s rise to power.

Wilson’s peace plans were rejected by the United States Senate, which was wary of anything that smacked of a supernational organization. Howeve,r Colonel House and the British and American peace conference delegates met again in Paris in May 1919 and agreed to form an Institute of International Affairs with the aim of steering the world towards the acceptance of a one-world government. Its British branch is called the Royal Instiutute of International Affairs, and the United States Branch was constructed on July 21, 1921, as the Council on Foreign Relations. One of CFR’s rules states that any member divulging information about CFR meetings will lose membership.

The Harold Pratt House in New York City is the CFR headquarters and has lavishly housed the New York liberal elite since it was donated in 1945 by the Pratt family of Rockefeller’s Standard Oil. Originally there were about 1,600 members, but this has grown to 3,300 as influential figures in finance, politics, communications, and academic have swelled its ranks after careful selection and rigorous screening.

Original CFR members included Elihu Root, John Foster Dulles, and Christian Herter, all three of whom served as secretary of state; also Dulles’ brother Allen Dulles, who later became the director of the CIA, was a member. Since then nearly every one of the Dulles successors has been CFR member, including George Bush and William Casey. Founder members John W. Davis and Russell Leffingwell were financier J.P. Morgan’s right-hand men, and many of the other early members had strong links with him, so CFR policy must have served Morgan’s interests and allegedly still does.

Not only does the CFR run the CIA, they also control the State Department. This started when President Truman established the Psychological Strategy Board (PSB) to coordinate psycho-political operations. It was headed by CFR members Gordon Gray and Henry Kissinger. The PSB has close links with the State Department and CIA. Eisenhower changed itsw name to the Operations Coordinations Board (OSB) and when President Kennedy abolished it, the OCB became an ad hoc committee called the Special Group which continues today. It is run by CFR members.

COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS (2 of 2)

In February 1941 the CFR took control of the State Department with the establishment of the Division of Special Research into security, armaments, economics, and politics. Like the PSB and OCB, the Division of Special Research is run by CFR cronies.

Original CFR funding came from bankers and financiers, including Morgan, Rockefeller, and Otto Kahn, and today comes from the State Department and corporations, including Xerox, General Motors, Texaco, and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund. Like the Bilderberg, albeit with less secrecy, the CFR communicates its ideas through conferences and smaller luncheon or dinner meetings. It also acts as a think tank to produce research to further its globalist agenda. The CFR’s publication Foreign Affairs is the public mouthpiece. It is widely acknowledged that just as Broadway shows rise or fall on the opinion of the New York Times critic, ideas rarely make it into the United States government foreign policy until they have gained approval in this CFR club magazine.

Admiral Chester Ward, a retired senior figure in the US Navy and CFR member, co-authored a book in 1975 with Phyllis Schafly called Kissinger on the Couch in which he states, “Once the ruling members of the CFR have decided that the US government should adopt a particular policy, the very substantial research facilities of the CFR are put to work to develop arguments, intellectual and emotional, to support the new policy, to confound and discredit, intellectually and politically, any opposition.”

Henry Kissinger rose to prominence by exploiting his CFR connections, which included David Rockefeller. Through the CFR he gained inside knowledge of the Atomic Energy Commission, the military, the CIA, and the State Department to write his best-selling book Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy. Which put forth the case that a nuclear war might be “winnable”.

The CFR has placed 100 of its members in every presidential administration since Woodrow Wilson. Both the Republican George W. Bush and his Democrat opponent in the 2000 election, Al Gore, are CFR men, and the Clinton administration included more than 100 CFR members, many of whom have become foreign ambassadors to spread the good news about federalism and globalism.

Some critics of the CFR claim that the Marshall Plan and the subsequent North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) came into being after an “anonymous” letter that appeared in Foreign Affairs gave Truman the nod to take a hard line against the threat of Soviet expansionism. Ever since, despite the collapse of Soviet Communism, the attitude towards armaments has been spend, spend, spend.

Evidently the prudent words of Thomas Jefferson have been long forgotten: “I place economy among the first and most important of republican virtues, and public debt as the greatest of dangers to be feared.”

Does Sessions/AG position need to be rendered useless before military tribunals can be activated?
