History of the New World Order
by Jim Brown
kind of "conspiracy" pushing us towards a world government are virulently
ridiculed. The standard attack maintains that the so-called "New World
Order" is the product of turn-of-the-century, right-wing, bigoted,
anti-semitic racists acting in the tradition of the long-debunked Protocols
of the Learned Elders of Zion, now promulgated by some Militias and other
right-wing hate groups. The historical record does not support that
position to any large degree but it has become the mantra of the socialist
left and their cronies, the media. The term "New World Order" has been
used thousands of times in this century by proponents in high places of
federalized world government. Some of those involved in this
collaboration to achieve world order have been Jewish. The preponderance
are not, so it most definitely is not a "Jewish" agenda. For years,
leaders in education, industry, the media, banking, etc., have promoted
those with the same Weltanschauung (world view) as theirs. Of course,
someone might say that just because individuals promote their friends
doesn't constitute a conspiracy. That's true in the usual sense.
However, it does represent an "open conspiracy," as described by noted
Fabian Socialist H.G. Wells in The Open Conspiracy: Blue Prints for a World
Revolution (1928).
In 1913, prior to the passage of the Federal Reserve Act President Wilson's
The New Freedom was published, in which he revealed: "Since I entered
politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately.
Some of the biggest men in the U. S., in the field of commerce and
manufacturing, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They
know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful,
so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak
above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it." On November
21, 1933, President Franklin Roosevelt wrote a letter to Col. Edward
Mandell House, President Woodrow Wilson's close advisor: "The real truth
of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger
centers has owned the Government every since the days of Andrew Jackson..."
That there is such a thing as a cabal of power brokers who control government
behind the scenes has been detailed several times in this century by
credible sources. Professor Carroll Quigley was Bill Clinton's mentor
at Georgetown University. President Clinton has publicly paid homage to the
influence Professor Quigley had on his life. In Quigley's magnum opus
Tragedy and Hope (1966), he states: "There does exist and has existed
for a generation, an international...network which operates, to some extent,
in the way the radical right believes the Communists act. In fact, this
network, which we may identify as the Round Table Groups, has no aversion
to cooperating with the Communists, or any other groups and frequently does
so.
I know of the operations of this network because I have studied it for
twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960s, to
examine its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to
most of its aims and have, for much of my life, been close to it and to
many of its instruments. I have objected, both in the past and recently, to
a few of its policies...but in general my chief difference of opinion is
that it wishes to remain unknown, and I believe its role in history is
significant enough to be known."
Even talk show host Rush Limbaugh, an outspoken critic of anyone
claiming a push for global government, said on his February 7, 1995 program:
"You see, if you amount to anything in Washington these days, it is because
you have been plucked or handpicked from an Ivy League school--Harvard,
Yale, Kennedy School of Government--you've shown an aptitude to be a good
Ivy League type, and so you're plucked so-to-speak, and you are assigned
success. You are assigned a certain role in government somewhere, and then
your success is monitored and tracked, and you go where the pluckers and the
handpickers can put you." On May 4, 1993, Council on Foreign Relations (CFR)
President Leslie Gelb said on The Charlie Rose Show that: "...you [Charlie
Rose] had me on [before] to talk about the New World Order! I talk about it
all the time. It's one world now. The Council [CFR] can find, nurture, and
begin to put people in the kinds of jobs this country needs. And that's going
to be one of the major enterprises of the Council under me." Previous CFR
chairman, John J. McCloy (1953-70), actually said they have been doing
this since the
1940s (and before). The thrust towards global government can be well-documented
but at the end of the twentieth century it does not look like a traditional
conspiracy in the usual sense of a secret cabal of evil men meeting
clandestinely behind closed doors. Rather, it is a "networking" of like-minded
individuals in high places to achieve a common goal, as described in Marilyn
Ferguson's 1980 insider classic, The Aquarian Conspiracy.
Perhaps the best way to relate this would be a brief history of the New World
Order, not in our words but in the words of those who have been
striving to make it real.
The following chronology ranges from 1912 to 1996.
1912 -- Colonel Edward M. House, a close advisor of President Woodrow
Wilson, publishes Phillip Dru: Administrator in which he promotes
"socialism as dreamed of by Karl Marx."
1913 -- The Federal Reserve (neither federal nor a reserve) is created.
It was planned at a secret meeting in 1910 on Jekyl Island, Georgia by a
group of bankers and politicians, including Col. House. This transferred
the power to create money from the American government to a private group
of bankers. It is probably the largest generator of debt in the world.
May 30, 1919 -- Prominent British and American personalities establish the
Royal Institute of International Affairs in England and the Institute of
International Affairs in the U.S. at a meeting arranged by Col. House
attended by various Fabian socialists, including noted economist John
Maynard Keynes. Two years later, Col. House reorganizes the Institute
of International Affairs into the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
1919 -- Bert Walker formally organizes the W.A.Harriman & Co private
bank. In the autumn of 1919, Prescott Bush meets Bert Walkers daughter
Dorothy, and they are married in August 1921. The wedding was attended by
Yale Bonesmen from the class of 1917.
December 15, 1922 -- The CFR endorses World Government in its magazine
Foreign Affairs. Author Philip Kerr, states: "Obviously there is
going to be no peace or prosperity for mankind as long as [the earth] remains
divided into 50 or 60 independent states until some kind of international
system is created...The real problem today is that of the world
government."
1924 -- George Herbert Walker Bush born in Milton, Massachusetts. "Bunny"
Harriman brings Prescott Bush into US Rubber Company in New York.
1926 -- American I.G. founded as a holding company controlling I.G. Farben
assets in the United States. Some board members were Edsel Ford, Charles
Mitchell (President of Rockefeller's National City Bank of New York), Walt
Teagle (President of Standard Oil), Paul Warburg (Federal Reserve chairman
and brother of Max Warbug, financier of Nazi Germany's war effort and
Director of American I.G.) and Herman Metz, a director of the Bank of
Manhattan, controlled by the Warburgs. Three other members of the Board of
Governors for American I.G. were tried and convicted as German war
criminals.
1926 -- I.G. Farben merges with Dynamit-Nobel.
1926 -- Prescott Bush joins W.A. Harriman & Co as vice-president. George
Herbert Walker would join Harriman in 1928 and later finances the building
of Madison Square Garden in New York. Walker's son, George H. Walker, Jr.,
would become chairman of Walker-Bush Oil Corporation and Zapata Petroleum
(owned by George HW Bush).
1928 -- The Open Conspiracy: Blue Prints for a World Revolution by H.G.
Well is published. A former Fabian Socialist, Wells writes: "The political
world of the Open Conspiracy must weaken, efface, incorporate and supersede
existing governments...The Open Conspiracy is the natural inheritor of
socialist and communist enthusiasms; it may be in control of Moscow before
it is in control of New York...The character of the Open Conspiracy will
now be plainly displayed...It will be a world religion."
1931 -- Students at the Lenin School of Political Warfare in Moscow are
taught: "One day we shall start to spread the most theatrical peace
movement the world has ever seen. The capitalist countries, stupid and
decadent...will fall into the trap offered by the possibility of making new
friends. Our day will come in 30 years or so...The bourgeoisie must be
lulled into a false sense of security.
1932 -- New books are published urging World Order: Toward Soviet America
by William Z. Foster. Head of the Communist Party USA, Foster
indicates that a National Department of Education would be one of the means
used to develop a new socialist society in the U.S. The New World Order
by F.S. Marvin, describing the League of Nations as the first attempt at a
New World Order. Marvin says, "nationality must rank below the claims of
mankind as a whole." Dare the School Build a New Social Order? is published.
Educator author George Counts asserts that: "...the teachers should
deliberately reach for power and then make the most of their conquest" in
order to "influence the social attitudes, ideals and behavior of the coming
generation...The growth of science and technology has carried us into a new
age where ignorance must be replaced by knowledge, competition by
cooperation, trust in Providence by careful planning and private capitalism
by some form of social economy."
1933 -- The first Humanist Manifesto is published. Co-author John
Dewey, the noted philosopher and educator, calls for a synthesizing of all
religions and "a socialized and cooperative economic order." Co-signer
C.F. Potter said in 1930: "Education is thus a most powerful ally of
humanism, and every American public school is a school of humanism.
What can the theistic Sunday schools, meeting for an hour once a week,
teaching only a fraction of the children, do to stem the tide of a five-day
program of humanistic teaching?
1933 -- The Shape of Things to Come by H.G. Wells is published. Wells
predicts a second world war around 1940, originating from a German-Polish
dispute. After 1945 there would be an increasing lack of public safety
in "criminally infected" areas. The plan for the "Modern World-State"
would succeed on its third attempt (about 1980), and come out of something
that occurred in Basra, Iraq. The book also states, "Although world
government had been plainly coming for some years, although it had been
endlessly feared and murmured against, it found no opposition prepared
anywhere."
1934 -- The Externalization of the Hierarchy by Alice A. Bailey is
published. Bailey is an occultist, whose works are channeled from a
spirit guide, the Tibetan Master [demon spirit] Djwahl Kuhl. Bailey
uses the phrase "points of light" in connection with a "New Group of World
Servers" and claims that 1934 marks the beginning of "the organizing of the
men and women...group work of a new order...[with] progress defined by
service...the world of the Brotherhood...the Forces of Light...[and] out of
the spoliation of all existing culture and civilization, the new world
order must be built." The book is published by the Lucis Trust, incorporated
originally in New York as the Lucifer Publishing Company. Lucis Trust
is a United Nations NGO and has been a major player at the recent U.N.
summits.
Later Assistant Secretary General of the U.N. Robert Mueller would credit
the creation of his World Core Curriculum for education to the underlying
teachings of Djwahl Kuhl via Alice Bailey's writings on the subject.
1932 -- Plan for Peace by American Birth Control League founder Margaret
Sanger (1921) is published. She calls for coercive sterilization,
mandatory segregation, and rehabilitative concentration camps for all
"dysgenic stocks" including Blacks, Hispanics, American Indians and
Catholics.
October 28, 1939 -- In an address by John Foster Dulles, later U.S.
Secretary of State, he proposes that America lead the transition to a new
order of less independent, semi-sovereign states bound together by a league
or federal union.
1939 -- New World Order by H. G. Wells proposes a collectivist one-world
state"' or "new world order" comprised of "socialist democracies." He
advocates "universal conscription for service" and declares that
"nationalist individualism...is the world's disease." He continues:
"The manifest necessity for some collective world control to eliminate
warfare and the less generally admitted necessity for a collective control
of the economic and biological life of mankind, are aspects of one and the
same process." He proposes that this be accomplished through
"universal law" and propaganda (or education)."
1940 -- The New World Order is published by the Carnegie Endowment for
International Peace and contains a select list of references on regional
and world federation, together with some special plans for world order after
the war.
December 12, 1940 -- In The Congressional Record an article entitled A New
World Order John G. Alexander calls for a world federation.
1941 -- Amory Howe Bradford marries Carol Warburg, whose mother Carola was
the head of the Warburg family in the United States after World War II. The
family assisted the Harriman rise into the world in the 19th and early 20th
century. The Warburgs and the Sulzbergers (New York Times) used various
committees and religious organizations to protect the Harriman-Bush
deals with Hitler.
1942 -- On October 24th, US Government orders the seizure of Nazi German
banking operations in New York City which were conducted by Prescott Bush.
Under the Trading With the Enemy Act, the government takes over Union Banking
Corporation, of which Bush is a director. On October 28th, the
government seizes two Nazi front organizations run by the Bush-Harriman
bank: the Holland-American Trading Corporation and the Seamless Steel
Equipment Corporation. In November, Nazi Interests in the Silesian-American
Corp are seized. Nazi US partners are left to carry on business. The
order to
seize the bank is quietly published in government records and kept out
of the
public media.
1942 -- The leftist Institute of Pacific Relations publishes Post War
Worlds by P.E. Corbett: "World government is the ultimate aim...It must be
recognized that the law of nations takes precedence over national law...The
process will have to be assisted by the deletion of the nationalistic
material employed in educational textbooks and its replacement by material
explaining the benefits of wiser association."
June 28, 1945 -- President Truman endorses world government in a speech:
"It will be just as easy for nations to get along in a republic of the
world as it is for us to get along in a republic of the United States."
October 24, 1945 -- The United Nations Charter becomes effective. Also
on October 24, Senator Glen Taylor (D-Idaho) introduces Senate Resolution
183 calling upon the U.S. Senate to go on record as favoring creation of a
world republic including an international police force.
1946 -- Alger Hiss is elected President of the Carnegie Endowment for
International Peace. Hiss holds this office until 1949. Early in 1950,
he is convicted of perjury and sentenced to prison after a sensational
trial and Congressional hearing in which Whittaker Chambers, a former
senior editor of Time, testifies that Hiss was a member of his Communist
Party cell.
1946 -- The Teacher and World Government by former editor of the NEA
Journal (National Education Association) Joy Elmer Morgan is published. He
says: "In the struggle to establish an adequate world government, the
teacher...can do much to prepare the hearts and minds of children for
global understanding and cooperation...At the very heart of all the agencies
which will assure the coming of world government must stand the school, the
teacher, and the organized profession."
1947 -- The American Education Fellowship, formerly the Progressive
Education Association, organized by John Dewey, calls for the:
"...establishment of a genuine world order, an order in which national
sovereignty is subordinate to world authority..." October, 1947 -- NEA
Associate Secretary William Carr writes in the NEA Journal that teachers
should: "...teach about the various proposals that havebeen made for the
strengthening of the United Nations and the establishment of a world
citizenship and world government."
1948 -- George HW Bush graduates from Yale University and the Skull and Bones.
It is known that George HW Bush is a distant cousin of the Queen of England,
part of the Black Nobility which traces its power back 5,000 years.
1948 -- Walden II by behavioral psychologist B.F. Skinner proposes "a
perfect society or new and more perfect order" in which children are reared
by the State, rather than by their parents and are trained from birth to
demonstrate only desirable behavior and characteristics. Skinner's ideas
would be widely implemented by educators in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s as
Values Clarification and Outcome Based Education.
July, 1948 -- Britain's Sir Harold Butler, in the CFR's Foreign Affairs,
sees "a New World Order" taking shape: "How far can the life of nations,
which for centuries have thought of themselves as distinct and unique, be
merged with the life of other nations? How far are they prepared to
sacrifice a part of their sovereignty without which there can be no
effective economic or political union?...Out of the prevailing confusion a
new world is taking shape... which may point the way toward the new
order...That will be the beginning of a real United Nations, no longer
crippled by a split personality, but held together by a common faith."
1948 -- UNESCO president and Fabian Socialist, Sir Julian Huxley, calls for
a radical eugenic policy in UNESCO: Its Purpose and Its Philosophy. He
states: "Thus, even though it is quite true that any radical eugenic
policy of controlled human breeding will be for many years politically and
psychologically impossible, it will be important for UNESCO to see that the
eugenic problem is examined with the greatest care and that the public mind
is informed of the issues at stake that much that is now unthinkable may at
least become thinkable."
1948 -- The preliminary draft of a World Constitution is published by U.S.
educators advocating regional federation on the way toward world federation
or government with England incorporated into a European federation. The
Constitution provides for a "World Council" along with a "Chamber of
Guardians" to enforce world law. Also included is a "Preamble" calling
upon nations to surrender their arms to the world government, and includes
the right of this "Federal Republic of the World" to seize private property
for federal use.
February 9, 1950 -- The Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee introduces
Senate Concurrent Resolution 66 which begins: "Whereas, in order to
achieve universal peace and justice, the present Charter of the United
Nations should be changed to provide a true world government constitution."
The resolution was first introduced in the Senate on September 13, 1949 by
Senator Glen Taylor (D-Idaho). Senator Alexander Wiley (R-Wisconsin)
called it "a consummation devoutly to be wished for" and said, "I
understand your proposition is either change the United Nations, or change
or create, by a separate convention, a world order." Senator Taylor later
stated: "We would have to sacrifice considerable sovereignty to the world
organization to enable them to levy taxes in their own right to support
themselves."
April 12, 1952 -- John Foster Dulles, later to become Secretary of State,
says in a speech to the American Bar Association in Louisville, Kentucky,
that "treaty laws can override the Constitution." He says treaties can
take power away from Congress and give them to the President. They can
take powers from the States and give them to the Federal Government or to
some international body and they can cut across the rights given to the
people by their constitutional Bill of Rights. A Senate amendment,
proposed by GOP Senator John Bricker, would have provided that no treaty
could supersede the Constitution, but it fails to pass by one vote.
1954 -- Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands establishes the Bilderbergers,
international politicians and bankers who meet secretly on an annual basis.
1958 -- World Peace through World Law is published, where authors Grenville
Clark and Louis Sohn advocate using the U.N. as a governing body for the
world, world disarmament, a world police force and legislature.
1959 -- The Council on Foreign Relations calls for a New International
Order. Study Number 7, issued on November 25, advocated: "...new
international order [which] must be responsive to world aspirations for
peace, for social and economic change...an international order...including
states labeling themselves as 'socialist' [communist]."
1959 -- The World Constitution and Parliament Association is founded which
later develops a Diagram of World Government under the Constitution for
the Federation of Earth.
1959 -- The Mid-Century Challenge to U.S. Foreign Policy is published,
sponsored by the Rockefeller Brothers' Fund. It explains that the U.S.:
"...cannot escape, and indeed should welcome...the task which history has
imposed on us. This is the task of helping to shape a new world order
in all its dimensions--spiritual, economic, political, social."
September 9, 1960 -- President Eisenhower signs Senate Joint Resolution
170, promoting the concept of a federal Atlantic Union. Pollster and
Atlantic Union Committee treasurer, Elmo Roper, later delivers an
address titled, The Goal Is Government of All the World, in which he
states: "For it becomes clear that the first step toward World Government
cannot be completed until we have advanced on the four fronts: the
economic, the military, the political and the social."
1961 -- The U.S. State Department issues a plan to disarm all nations and
arm the United Nations. State Department Document Number 7277 is
entitled Freedom From War: The U.S. Program for General and Complete
Disarmament in a Peaceful World. It details a three-stage plan to
disarm all nations and arm the U.N. with the final stage in which "no state
would have the military power to challenge the progressively
strengthened U.N. Peace Force."
1962 -- New Calls for World Federalism. In a study titled, A World
Effectively Controlled by the United Nations, CFR member Lincoln Bloomfield
states: "...if the communist dynamic was greatly abated, the West might
lose whatever incentive it has for world government." The Future of
Federalism by author Nelson Rockefeller is published. The one-time
Governor of New York, claims that current events compellingly demand a "new
world order," as the old order is crumbling, and there is "a new and free
order struggling to be born." Rockefeller says there is: "a fever of
nationalism...[but] the nation-state is becoming less and less competent to
perform its international political tasks....These are some of the reasons
pressing us to lead vigorously toward the true building of a new world
order...[with] voluntary service...and our dedicated faith in the
brotherhood of all mankind....Sooner perhaps than we may realize...there
will evolve the bases for a federal structure of the free world."
1963 -- J. William Fulbright, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee speaks at a symposium sponsored by the Fund for the Republic, a
left-wing project of the Ford Foundation: "The case for government by
elites is irrefutable...government by the people is possible but highly
improbable."
1964 -- Taxonomy of Educational Objectives, Handbook II is published.
Author Benjamin Bloom states: "...a large part of what we call 'good teaching'
is the teacher's ability to attain affective objectives through challenging
the students' fixed beliefs." His Outcome-Based Education (OBE) method of
teaching would first be tried as Mastery Learning in Chicago schools. After
five years, Chicago students' test scores had plummeted causing outrage
among parents. OBE would leave a trail of wreckage wherever it would
be tried and under whatever name it would be used. At the same time, it would
become crucial to globalists for overhauling the education system to
promote attitude changes among school students.
1964 -- Visions of Order by Richard Weaver is published. He describes:
"progressive educators as a 'revolutionary cabal' engaged in 'a systematic
attempt to undermine society's traditions and beliefs.'"
1967 -- Richard Nixon calls for New World Order. In Asia after
Vietnam, in the October issue of Foreign Affairs, Nixon writes of nations'
dispositions to evolve regional approaches to development needs and to the
evolution of a "new world order."
1968 -- Joy Elmer Morgan, former editor of the NEA Journal publishes The
American Citizens Handbook in which he says: "the coming of the United
Nations and the urgent necessity that it evolve into a more comprehensive
form of world government places upon the citizens of the United States an
increased obligation to make the most of their citizenship which now widens
into active world citizenship."
July 26, 1968 -- Nelson Rockefeller pledges support of the New World Order.
In an Associated Press report, Rockefeller pledges that, "as President, he
would work toward international creation of a new world order."
1970 -- Education and the mass media promote world order. In Thinking
About A New World Order for the Decade 1990, author Ian Baldwin, Jr.
asserts that: "...the World Law Fund has begun a worldwide research and
educational program that will introduce a new, emerging discipline--world
order--into educational curricula throughout the world...and to concentrate
some of its energies on bringing basic world order concepts into the mass
media again on a worldwide level."
1971 -- George HW Bush joins the Council on Foreign Relations.
1972 -- George Bush US ambassador to the United Nations.
1972 -- President Nixon visits China. In his toast to Chinese Premier
Chou En-lai, former CFR member and now President, Richard Nixon, expresses
"the hope that each of us has to build a new world order."
May 18, 1972 -- In speaking of the coming of world government, Roy M. Ash,
director of the Office of Management and Budget, declares that: "within
two decades the institutional framework for a world economic community will
be in place...[and] aspects of individual sovereignty will be given over to
a super-national authority."
1973 -- The Trilateral Commission is established. Banker David Rockefeller
organizes this new private body and chooses Zbigniew Brzezinski, later
National Security Advisor to President Carter, as the Commission's first
director and invites Jimmy Carter to become a founding member.
1973 -- Humanist Manifesto II is published: "The next century can be and
should be the humanistic century...we stand at the dawn of a new age...a
secular society on a planetary scale....As non-theists we begin with humans
not God, nature not deity...we deplore the division of humankind on
nationalistic grounds....Thus we look to the development of a system of
world law and a world order based upon transnational federal
government....The true revolution is occurring."
April, 1974 -- Former U. S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of State,
Trilateralist and CFR member Richard Gardner's article The Hard Road to
World Order is published in the CFR's Foreign Affairs where he states that:
"the 'house of world order' will have to be built from the bottom up rather
than from the top down...but an end run around national sovereignty,
eroding it piece by piece, will accomplish much more than the old-fashioned
frontal assault."
1974 -- The World Conference of Religion for Peace, held in Louvain,
Belgium is held. Douglas Roche presents a report entitled We Can Achieve
a New World Order. The U.N. calls for wealth redistribution: In a report
entitled New International Economic Order, the U.N. General Assembly
outlines a plan to redistribute the wealth from the rich to the poor
nations.
1975 -- A study titled, A New World Order, is published by the Center of
International Studies, Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International
Studies, Princeton University.
1975 -- In Congress, 32 Senators and 92 Representatives sign A Declaration
of Interdependence, written by historian Henry Steele Commager. The
Declaration states that: "we must join with others to bring forth a new
world order...Narrow notions of national sovereignty must not be permitted
to curtail that obligation." Congresswoman Marjorie Holt refuses to
sign the Declaration saying: "It calls for the surrender of our national
sovereignty to international organizations. It declares that our
economy should be regulated by international authorities. It proposes
that we enter a 'new world order' that would redistribute the wealth
created by the American people."
1975 -- Retired Navy Admiral Chester Ward, former Judge Advocate General of
the U.S. Navy and former CFR member, writes in a critique that the goal of
the CFR is the "submergence of U. S. sovereignty and national independence
into an all powerful one-world government..."
1975 -- Kissinger on the Couch is published. Authors Phyllis Schlafly
and former CFR member Chester Ward state: "Once the ruling members of the
CFR have decided that the U.S. government should espouse 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
and to confound, discredit, intellectually and politically, any
opposition..."
1976 -- US House Banking and Currency Commitee Report, May 1976, entitled
"International Banking", identifies the Rothschild Five Arrows Group and
its five branches: N.M.Rothschild & Sons, Ltd in London, Banque
Rothschild in France, Banque Lambert in Belgium, New Court Securities in
New York, and Pierson, Holdring & Company in Amsterdam, all of which were
combined into Rothschild Intercontinental Bank, Ltd, who in turn has three
American subsidiaries: National City Bank of Cleveland, First City National
Bank (First City Bancorp) in Houston, and First National Bank in Seattle.
First City Bancorp in Houston would co-chair the Reagan Bush campaign of

civil peace, then world civil government is necessary for world peace."
1979 -- George GW Bush resigns from the Council on Foreign Relations.
1979 -- Barry Goldwater, retiring Republican Senator from Arizona,
publishes his autobiography With No Apologies. He writes: "In my view The
Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize
control and consolidate the four centers of power--political, monetary,
intellectual, and ecclesiastical. All this is to be done in the
interest of creating a more peaceful, more productive world community. What
the Trilateralists truly intend is the creation of a worldwide economic power
superior to the political governments of the nation-states involved.
They believe the abundant materialism they propose to create will overwhelm
existing differences. As managers and creators of the system they will
rule the future."

constitutional structure they erected."

going to attack the other deliberately...If we could internationalize by
using the U.N. in conjunction with the Soviet Union, because we now no
longer have to fear, in most cases, a Soviet veto, then we could begin to
transform the shape of the world and might get the U.N. back to doing
something useful...Sooner or later we are going to have to face
restructuring our institutions so that they are not confined merely to the
nation-states. Start first on a regional and ultimately you could move
to a world basis."

because all he was saying is that the system was loaded with Communists.

(to be used in) all countries of the world..."
October 29, 1991 -- David Funderburk, former U. S. Ambassador to Romania,

whose 166 member states are socialist, atheist, and anti-American."

July 20, 1992 -- TIME magazine publishes The Birth of the Global Nation by
Strobe Talbott, Rhodes Scholar, roommate of Bill Clinton at Oxford
University, CFR Director, and Trilateralist, in which he writes: "All
countries are basically social arrangements...No matter how permanent or

and temporary...Perhaps national sovereignty wasn't such a great idea after
all...But it has taken the events in our own wondrous and terrible century
to clinch the case for world government." As an editor of Time, Talbott
defended Clinton during his presidential campaign. He was appointed by
President Clinton as the number two person at the State Department behind

administration.
Winter, 1992-93 -- The CFR's Foreign Affairs publishes Empowering the
United Nations by U.N. Secretary General Boutros-Boutros Ghali, who asserts:

in all humanity...It is a sense that increasingly finds expression in the
gradual expansion of international law...In this setting the significance
of the United Nations should be evident and accepted."
1993 -- Strobe Talbott receives the Norman Cousins Global Governance Award

lifetime achievements as a voice for global harmony have earned him this
recognition...He will be a worthy recipient of the Norman Cousins Global
Governance Award. Best wishes...for future success." Not only does

have given it to the other nominee, Mikhail Gorbachev.

article by CFR Senior Fellow Michael Clough in which he writes that the
"Wise Men" (e.g. Paul Nitze, Dean Acheson, George Kennan, and John J.
McCloy) have: "assiduously guarded it [American foreign policy] for
the past 50 years...They ascended to power during World War II...This was
as it should be. National security and the national interest, they argued
must transcend the special interests and passions of the people who make up
America...How was this small band of Atlantic-minded internationalists able
to triumph?...Eastern internationalists were able to shape and staff the
burgeoning foreign policy institutions...As long as the Cold War endured
and nuclear Armageddon seemed only a missile away, the public was willing
to tolerate such an undemocratic foreign policy making system."
1995 -- The State of the World Forum took place in the fall of this year,
sponsored by the Gorbachev Foundation located at the Presidio in San
Francisco. Foundation President Jim Garrison chairs the meeting of who'
s-whos from around the world including Margaret Thatcher, Maurice Strong,

opponents of global government.
