This is our most recent book, published in April, 2001. While countless books have been written revealing yet one more outrage which the New World Order folks have perpetrated on us, we have resolved on an entirely different purpose: to define a way of mounting a counterattack on those elites, and not just delay their next victory, but destroy their viability, and take back our country and the world for middle class citizens everywhere.

In the same way that an army or a football team will surely lose in the long run if it has only a defense and no offense, we too shall lose our world to the elites if we fail to marshal our resources, mount a viable offense against them, and reduce their present dominance of public affairs to a nullity. To that end, we have in this book gone back into history to discover their origin, their modus operandi, their strengths, and most importantly, their weaknesses. We have been successful, and have found a crucial weakness which may readily be exploited. We will, in this web page, outline our search, our major findings, and finally a plan of action to save our country for the benefit, we hope, of a great number of future generations of free citizens.

Our historical look will go back 2000 years and beyond. Our sources are not generally well known, are not Nobel prize- winning historians, but nevertheless are historical truth seekers whose researches are uniquely valuable. Each of the chapters of Secrecy or Freedom? carries the title of the historical work which is reviewed in that chapter. In this web page, we will give you an inkling of what is covered in each of these chapters, with the hope that these few words will lead you to order our book, carefully absorb its contents, and then join in our proposed action plan to take back our country.

1. Memoirs Illustrating the History of Jacobinism, by Abbé Augustin Barruel, 1797. Barruel lived through the years of planning of the French Revolution. Opposing it, he barely escaped France to England in 1792, with the Jacobin revolutionaries in hot pursuit. He resolved to write about the three streams of effort which produced the conflagration: the anti- Christian movement headed by such as Voltaire, the French Masonic organization nominally headed by Philip of Orleans, and Adam Weishaupt's Illuminati organization which came to dominate Masonry. Each of these groups demanded utter secrecy and ruthlessness of the upper levels of its members, along with expert and vigorous lying by those members to protect and maintain their organizational secrecy. Barruel's book contains an unmatched discussion of the internal organization and methodology of the Illuminati, and lays the groundwork for a great deal of the later historical research into the "World Revolution" which has continued to the present day.

2. The French Revolution, by Nesta H. Webster, 1919. In this book, Webster details the five major public events of the Revolution, which clearly indicate, she says, the non-culpability of the French public in either the planning or the execution of the civil destruction. The great bulk of the French population favored the creation of a French constitution akin to what had just been created in the United States. However, the Constitutionalists in the 1789 French National Assembly were outvoted and soon ejected by the Orleanist and subversive revolutionary members of the Assembly who, as they opposed the will of the people, had obviously lied to their constituents in order to get elected. The revolution could not have succeeded without this duplicitous behavior of the Assembly, which not only destroyed the people's hope for a system of stable constitutional freedoms, but actually destroyed all French civil government of any kind, exactly as the high level Masons and Illuminati secretly desired.

3. Humanum Genus - on Freemasonry, by Pope Leo XIII, 1884. In this encyclical, Leo exhorts the leaders of the Catholic Church to "tear away the mask from Freemasonry, and let it be seen as it really is," including its artifices, its depravity, and its wickedness. He notes that popes from 1738 have denounced the sect, as have many secular governments. The public, however, has remained uninformed as to the sect's secret purposes, secret leaders, and secret actions. Members have sworn, under pain of death, to maintain secrecy, to unquestioningly follow the orders of unseen and unknown leaders, and to lie to the public and to lower level members as to the sect's goals. These strategies have been very successful, such that the goals can no longer be hidden, namely, the overthrow of the entire religious and political order produced by Christian morality. Thus, in 1884 the Church made clear that it had been well aware for the prior 150 years that it was itself one of the primary targets for destruction by the revolutionaries.

4. Grand Orient Freemasonry Unmasked, by Monsignor George F. Dillon, 1885. Dillon responded to Pope Leo's call to unmask Freemasonry by writing this little book, first published in London in 1885, then lost to the world, then rediscovered and republished in 1950. The new publisher noted that "...the amateur detective is now replaced by the political investigator, [one of whom described the book as] 'the most exciting thriller I have ever read, because the whole plot is being enacted in living pages.'" Dillon traces the European anti-Christian movement from the 16th century up through Voltaire, and then takes on the Freemasons, also going back to the 16th century. By the 18th century, the Masonic core was to be found in England, from which lodges were thrown off into Europe, including Philip of Orleans' Grand Orient Lodge in Paris.

Dillon then discusses the rise of Weishaupt, the French Revolution, Napoleon's triumphs and downfall, the successors to Weishaupt at the head of the Illuminati, the place of Mazzini and the Carbonari, the subversive leadership of Lord Palmerston in the mid-19th century in orchestrating the 1848 European Revolution, the Crimean War, the rise of Bismarck, the defeat of Austria, and finally the defeat of France in the 1870 Franco- Prussian War, exposing the Pope to the armies of the Italian Mason Victor Emmanuel. All of the papal property in Italy was expropriated, excepting only the Vatican enclave in which the Pope presently resides. Remarkably, England alone remained revolution- free. Karl Marx is mentioned for the first time. A wonderful little book!

5. Freemasonry in the Life and Times of Pope Pius IX, by Fr. Leonard Feeney, 1950. This short little book concentrates on the revolutionary events personally experienced by Leo's predecessor, Pope Pius IX, Pope from 1846 until his death at age 86 in 1878. A brave and pious man, he was nevertheless obliged to succumb in 1870 when confronted with overwhelming physical power, even though that power mismatch had been arranged by the most perfidious of political machinations. Lenin would later say, truthfully, that revolutions are made out of the barrel of a gun. The Pope's secular power was now destroyed, as had been planned a half- century earlier and recorded in papers to which Pius IX had been made privy by his predecessor Pope Gregory XVI. However, Pius IX never gave up his spiritual and moral authority, and that papal authority, though much diluted today, has not yet been completely lost.

6. World Revolution, by Nesta H. Webster, 1921.Our main interests in this book are (1) the corroboration which it gives to Dillon's account of the 19th century European wars, and (2) Webster's account of the continuity of revolutionary thought from Weishaupt to Lenin. One of Robespierre's peers was one Francois Babeuf, who wrote a proclamation entitled "Manifesto of the Equals," which described in minute detail how society would work under their new order. The interesting thing is that the Marx/Engels Communist Manifesto was essentially a plagiarization of Babeuf's Manifesto. Further, the identical notions were proclaimed by the Bolsheviks in Russia after 1917, as Webster quotes Lenin's lieutenant Bucharin. From Weishaupt through Babeuf, Marx, and Lenin, the revolutionists pushed "the five abolitions," namely of monarchy and all other ordered government, of national patriotism, of property and inheritance, of all religion, and of marriage and the family.

Webster spends a good deal of effort in documenting the involvement of the Freemasons and other European secret societies with the revolutions in mid- century, the establishment of the First International (not a workingman's organization), the rash of worldwide assassinations incident to the "refounding" of the Illuminati in Germany in about 1880, and the conning of the German military into helping Lenin cross Germany and enter Russia, whence Russia shortly thereafter became a slave state, Germany's foremost enemy, and the bane of the 20th century.

7. Secret Societies and Subversive Movements, by Nesta H. Webster, 1924. Barruel, in his search for the origin of Freemasonry, had identified its philosophical progenitor as the Manicheans, extant some 1600 years prior to the French Revolution. Webster's search backwards aimed at studying secret societies as a broader generality. Noting their connection to the world religions born in the Near East, she focused her study on the secret movements which grew out of those religions. The three religions were Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The Essenes, Gnostics, and Manicheans grew out of the Judaic/Christian complex, and from the Shiite branch of Islam sprouted the much more murderous secret societies of the Batinis, the Fatimites, and the Assassins, the latter being "the supreme model" (Webster's words) used in structuring the later European secret societies.

These European societies started with the Knights Templar (who were exposed to infection by both the Manicheans and the Assassins during the Crusades), and proceeded through the Freemasons, the Illuminati, the Carbonari, the International, and the Bolsheviks up to the time of Webster's writing. Among the many valuable things we learn from her work is the fact that the technology of secret societies has developed in a more or less straight line over many centuries, while several different managing entities have used them from time to time, each responding to man's fatal flaw that power corrupts.

8. Philip II, by William Thomas Walsh, 1937. This magnificent biography displays some of the suppressed European history from the 15th century through the 17th, i.e., from the Renaissance to the onset of the House of Hanover in England. It tells the story of the wars of King Philip and of his father, King Charles I of Spain, who was also the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V. Their struggles were directed against the Turks who were waging a Holy War against Christian Europe, the militant Protestants (e.g., the French Huguenots) who were waging war against the Catholic Church and Catholic monarchies, and the Marrano Jews recently displaced from Spain and welcomed into Antwerp and elsewhere in Europe, including London. Philip and his father misjudged Elizabeth, and supported her to be the next Queen of England. However, upon attaining the throne, Elizabeth surrounded herself with Protestant advisors and proceeded to loot the English Catholic Church of its properties, and otherwise turn England away from Catholicism.

The wars impoverished Spain, but gave Protestant England time to consolidate its power, and prepare for the 17th century revolutions which would ultimately install the German Hanovers as the English rulers. Walsh identifies a number of the prominent families (Cromwell, Cecil, Russell, Gresham, Coligny, and William of Orange- Nassau) who were involved in the two- century conspiracy to that end. Philip came to suspect the secret cooperation of his several enemies, but was never able to act effectively on those suspicions. Walsh goes to considerable lengths to identify ties between various of the conspiring families and the secret society activity afoot in the 16th century, such as the 1535 international Masonic meeting in Cologne, which was also discussed by Dillon in his book (our Chapter 4).

9. Against Oligarchy, by Webster G. Tarpley, 1970-1996. (See Links Page for source reference.) Tarpley found the missing thread for which so many of us have looked for so long, and he has exposed it. Today's oligarchical elite stem from the oligarchs who ruled Venice between approximately the 8th and the 17th centuries. They manufactured little (except for ships), but dominated trade within the whole Mediterranean world via both the seas and the overland route to the Far East. Their governance consisted of a carefully maintained group of oligarchical families who ran Venice for the benefit of the families. The families elected the state leaders from their own group, with the general Venetian population having nothing to say about governance. Their techniques were arbitrary and brutal. The slave trade and piracy were state-run enterprises. They grew exceedingly wealthy.

With the discovery of America and the ocean route to the Far East just before 1500, the Venetian oligarchs saw that Venice was misplaced to permit it to dominate the new world, so the oligarchs decided to move their center of operations to the European Atlantic coast, first to the Netherlands and then to England. They either created or exacerbated the Reformation and the religious wars that accompanied it, to keep Europe preoccupied while they consolidated their move from Venice. They engineered Henry VIII's Anne Boleyn affair, resulting finally in the elevation of Anne's daughter Elizabeth as Queen, and then surrounded Elizabeth with their own agents. After the 1688 Glorious Revolution, their own form of oligarchical governance was installed in England, where it remains to the present day. England was conquered, and without the English even knowing it.

They then created the Bank of England, which later served as the model for our own Federal Reserve System. Soon came the flooding of English Masonry throughout Europe, the creation of the Illuminati and the French Revolution, the wars of Lord Palmerston, the care and feeding of Karl Marx, the manipulations of King Edward VII leading to World War 1, and the conquest of Russia by the Bolsheviks. The story is absolutely fascinating.

10. Treason in America, by Anton Chaitkin, 1985. Chaitkin's theme is that, after the American Revolution, the English acknowledged only the temporary, but not the permanent, loss of their American colonies, and that they plotted for the next half- century to recover them. The treason was led in America by the "Essex Junto," a cabal of wealthy New Englanders who remained loyal to the mother country. (Much of their wealth had been derived from drug running around the world, and slave trafficking into the Americas, slave trafficking being an enterprise which the "British Venetians" had brought with them from Venice and continued to dominate.) Chaitkin names lots of names connected with the European oligarchs, such as Gallatin and Astor, and many more conspirators who were purely American, such as Aaron Burr and Presidents Pierce and Buchanan. Chaitkin, using family histories as primary source material, details the efforts made by the British- created Workman Plan, by the War of 1812, and most importantly by the American Civil War.

The British instigated the war by creating and funding the abolitionist movement in the North led by William Lloyd Garrison, while simultaneously creating and funding the slavery- supporting Scottish Rite Freemasonry movement, led by Caleb Cushing, which expanded into the South to recruit what would become the Confederate Army. Both Garrison and Cushing were creatures of the Essex Junto. The British were determined by this war to split the Union, engage European forces via Mexico and Canada, retake their southern plantation economy, and prevent the North from growing enough to ever be able to challenge Britain. Lincoln ultimately prevailed, however, recognizing the British effort for what it really was, and building Northern industrial strength sufficient to raise men and arms enough to win the war. Chaitkin's account fills in many more additional and important details of this pitifully unknown and misunderstood period in our history.

11. America's Secret Establishment, by Antony Sutton, 1986. Sutton shows that conspiratorial efforts via secret societies are still alive and very well in today's United States of America. Well- known as an historical researcher, a set of documents was surreptitiously sent to him in 1982 listing the membership of an American secret society called The Order, established at Yale University in 1833 as a chapter of a German secret society. He was appalled at the prominence and importance of the listed members, and thereupon wrote this present book, his magnum opus. Members were listed who were dominant in public education, the philanthropic foundations, religion, major law firms, publishing, major industry, finance, and politics.

As a sampling, a few of the names were Henry Sloan Coffin, Henry Stimson, Henry Luce, William Buckley, Pierre Jay (the first chairman of the N.Y. Federal Reserve Bank), Averell Harriman, and various Tafts, Bushes (both George and George W.), Chafees, Lovetts, Bundys, and lots more. If any member is questioned about The Order, he is instructed to not answer and to leave the presence of the questioner. Sutton said that dozens of questions that had bothered him about how the world really worked suddenly had obvious answers. His findings lend great relevance to the action plan which we will propose in our next chapter.

12. Let's Fix America!, by Alan B. Jones, 1994. In this chapter we present our action plan, and its rationale, for neutralizing the oligarchy's power sufficiently to obtain a Congress which will seek to pursue our society's legitimate constitutional goals. We follow that with a list of such goals, and the needed actions, mostly legislative, to attain them. It should surprise no one that the list of actions is substantially that originally published in Let's Fix America!, but modified by certain alterations and additions which, by the year 2001, we have found to be necessary or desirable, and which we have here spelled out in some detail.

The Oligarchy's weakness which we intend to exploit is its continuing need to lie, and to lie convincingly, in order to get elected and to stay elected. If polygraphs can be used to help seek out spies in our FBI and in our nuclear weapons labs, how much more important is it to assure that our policy- making legislators are also honestly in the service of the public, and honestly honoring their oaths of office to support the Constitution and the freedoms of our citizenry which the Constitution was specifically designed to try to protect. We propose, very briefly, to provide for voluntary, privately administered polygraph tests to be given to candidates running in primary elections for state and federal legislative offices.  A candidate who passes may then report to the public that he has been found to be truthful in claiming to support and defend the Constitution, as his oath requires. Much more detail is provided in our chapter.
