INTROD U C TI O N
The world is governed by very different personages from
what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes.
— BENJAMIN DISRAELI
Be forewarned.
If you are perfectly comfortable and satisfied with your own particular
view of humankind, religion, history, and the world, read no
further.
If you truly believe that humanity has almost reached the peak of its
scientific and spiritual fulfillment and that the corporate-owned mass
media is keeping you well enough informed, stop here.
But if you are one of those millions who look at the daily news, scratch
your head in wonder; and ask, "What in the world is going on?," or if you
entertain questions of who we are, where we came from, and where we're
all going, you are in for a joy ride.
This book deals with the secrets of government, hidden history, and
clandestine religion; the secrets of wealth, power, and control; the secrets
rarely recorded in the history books and never mentioned in the mass
media. This material may be disturbing and unsettling to some. But no
one has ever gained wisdom by studying material that only reinforced
their own predetermined ideas.
Addressed here will be issues many would have us believe occupy only
the fringe of knowledge. But how often have fringe issues suddenly
become areas of major concern? Older readers might recall that irritating
but seemingly inconsequential German radical who gained power in
Europe in the 1930s. Then there was that small conflict halfway around
the world in an obscure place called Vietnam. Or we might remember that
little-noticed burglary of Democratic Party headquarters in 1972.
The book also deals with conspiracy, an activity long decried by the
major media despite the fact that the American judicial system regularly
convicts people for criminal conspiracy.
Do secret societies truly exist? Is there really a secret government? Is
there a worldwide conspiracy bent on the subversion of freedom and
democracy? Or is such talk just the irrational ramblings of "conspiracy
theorists"?
The answer all depends to whom you choose to listen. And too many
people writing about conspiracy—on both sides of the question—have
their own particular agenda. It is time we step back and take the broader
view of our world and its history.
As the new millennium begins, the American public is becoming more
aware of one Dot-so-secret conspiracy: that for half the year they work for
the government. About the first six months of any given year is spent
making money which disappears into taxes before the worker even gets
his or her check. Withholding this invisible tax money has, over the years,
caused mast citizens to forget just how much tax burden they really carry.
And this is not to even mention the daily sales, state, city, and other taxes
which openly burden us. The simple British tax on tea said to have precipirated
the American Revolution was a pittance by comparison.
Despite assurances of a healthy economy by the skewed statistics of
the mass media and politicians, polls indicate the public feel an increasing
uneasiness about the direction of our national life.
This may be why more and more thoughtful people are taking a serious
look at conspiracies and the secret groups that spawn them. The
Internet is filled with Web sites and chat rooms where conspiracy is the
watchword. More and more books and periodicals are being published
filled with conspiracies ranging from the secrets of the Crusaders to the
JFK assassination.
Yet despite the length and breadth of the Information Highway, the
average American remains woefully ignorant. That is not to imply they
are stupid or mentally challenged. They have simply not been exposed
to the information now available. Many thoughtful, educated people in
a variety of fields—physicians, lawyers, computer experts, stock brokers,
accountants, bankers, merchants, scientists, teachers, etc.—are
totally in the dark about a wide variety of issues and the connections
between them concerning who truly rules the United States.
Primary causes for such ignorance are the lack of time to educate
ourselves and our reliance on a corporate-owned mass media which
does not present the information in all its broadest implications. As A.
J. Liebling once said, freedom of the press is for those who own the
presses ... or the radio and TV stations.
So how does one know what is true and what is not? What is important
and what is trivial? Who is really in charge? Are there ongoing
conspiracies that affect us all? Are there plots that can be traced back
through mankind's history? What are they and what is their purpose?
This book deals with these questions. But before there can be
answers, the issue of conspiracy must be addressed.
