Quiet Domination of the World: It's Exposure by Dr. Carroll Quigley (Georgetown University)

 

                The Bolshevik revolution helped the great push for world-wide socialism.  This revolution had strong support coming from the highest financial and political power centers in the U.S.; from men who, supposedly, were "capitalists" and who, according to conventional wisdom, should have been the mortal enemies of socialism and communism. (1)  Nor was this phenomenon confined to the U.S.  Trotsky, in his book, My Life, tells of a British financier who, in 1907, gave him a "large loan" to be repaid after the overthrow of the Tsar.  Arsene de Goulevitch, who witnessed the Bolshevik Revolution first hand, has identified the amount of the loan.  "In private intervews," he said, "I have been told that over 21 million roubles were spent in financing the Russian revolution......  The financier was by no means alone among the British to support the Russian revolution with large financial donations."  There were other high level British officials who supported the revolution.  It was one thing for Americans to undermine the Tsarist Russia and, thus, indirectly help Germany in the war, because Americans were not then into it, but for British citizens to do so was tantamount to treason.  (Russia and England were allied during WWI.)  To understand what higher loyalty compelled these men to betray their batlefield ally and to sacrifice the blood of their own countrymen, we must take a look at the unique organization to which they belonged.

THE SECRET SOCIETY

A secret society was organized and dedicated to nothing less than the quiet domination of the world.  The conquest of Russia was seen as but the first phase of that plan.  Since the organization is still in existence today and continues to make progress toward its goal, it is important to have its history included in this narrative.  One of the most authoritative reference works on the history of this group is Tragedy and Hope by Dr. Carroll Quigley.   Dr. Quigley was a professor of history at Georgetown University where President Clinton has been one of his students.  He was the author of the widely used textbook, Evolution of Civilization; he was a member of the editorial board of the monthly periodical, Current History; and he was a frequent lecturer and consultant for such groups as the Industrial College of the Armed Forces, the Brookings Institution, the U.S. Naval Weapons Laboratoy, the Naval College, the Smithsonian Institute, and the State Department.  But Dr. Quigley was no mere academic.  He also had been closely associated with many of the family dynasties of the super-rich.  He was, by his own boast, an insider with a front row view of the world's money power structure.  When Dr. Quigley wrote his scholarly, 1300-page book of dry history, it was not intended for the masses.  It was to be read by the intellectual elite, and to that select readership he cautiously exposed one of the best-kept secrets of all time.   He also made it clear, however, that he was a friendly apologist for this group and that he supported its goals and purposes.  Dr. Quigley said:  I know of the operation of this network because I have studied it for twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the 1960's 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.....In general, my chief difference of opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown. (2)   As mentioned, Quigley's book was intended for an elite readership composed of scholars and network insiders.  But, unexpectedly, it began to be quoted in the journals of the John Birch Society, which correctly had perceived that his work provided a valuable insight to the inner workings of a hidden power structure.  That exposure triggered a large demand fo the book by people who were opposed to the network and curious to see what an insider had to say about it.  That was not according to the original plan.  What happened next is best described by Quigley, himself.  In a personal letter dated December 9, 1975, he wrote:   Thank you for your praise of "Tragedy and Hope," a book which has brought me headaches as it apparently says something which powerful people do not want known.  My publisher stopped selling it in 1968 and told me he would reprint (but in 1971 he told my lawyers that they had destroyed the plates in 1968).  The rare-book price went up to $135 and parts were reprinted in violation of copyright, but I could do nothing because I believed the publisher, and he would not take action even when a pirate copy of the book appeared.  Only when I hired a lawyer in 1974 did I get any answers to my questions.....    In another personal letter, Quigley commented further on the duplicity of the publisher:  They lied to me for six years, telling me that they would reprint when they got 2,000 orders, which could never happen because they told anyone who asked that it was out of print and would not be reprinted.  They denied this to me until I sent them Xerox copies of such replies in libraries, at which they told me it was a clerk's error.  In other words, they lied to me but prevented me from regaining publication rights.....I am now quite sure that "Tragedy and Hope" was suppressed......  To understand why "powerful people" would want to suppress this book, note carefully what follows.  Dr. Quigley describes the goal of this network of world financiers as:    .........nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.  This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences.......   Each central bank, in the hands of men of the Bank of England, of the New York Federal Reserve, the Bank of France, and the Reichsbank, sought to dominate its government by its ability to control treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world. (2)  That is the information that "powerful people" do not want the common man to know.  Notice that Dr. Quigley refers to this group as a "network."  That is a precise choice of words, and it is important to an understanding of the forces of international finance.  The network to which he refers is not the secret society.  It is no doubt directed by it, and there are society members in key positions within the network, but we can be sure that there are many in the network who have little or no knowledge of hidden control. (1)  At the end of the war of 1914 a front organization was established in England and each dominion known as the Royal Institute of International Affairs.  In New York it was known as the Council on Foreign Relations.

I cannot say enough good things about "The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve" as it is extremely enlightening.  Congressman Ron Paul said about the book:  "A superb analysis.  Be prepared for one heck of a journey through time and mind."
