CONSPIRACY: 
THE INVISIBLE SECOND RUNG OF GOVERNMENT 
 
An Investigation and Discussion of that Part of the United       
 States Government Which We Did Not Elect, Which Is Not
  Accountable, Which Is Unconstitutional, Which Is Engaged In
   Unlawful and Unconstitutional Activity, and Then Hides Behind

PART I :
CITATION AND SUMMARY OF SOURCES
 
(continued)
 
 
34.  Kah, Gary H., En Route to Global Occupation, Lafayette, 
Louisiana, Huntington House Publishers, 1992.  Kah is a high- 
ranking government liaison and author.  Summary:  Documents plans 
for a one-world government based on Kah's more than ten thousand 
hours of research.  These plans include a cash-less society, 
wherein electronic transfers of money take place using user-ID 
cards, invisible bar code tatoos, or computer chips smaller than 
a human hair inserted under the skin by injection.
 
The plans encompass methods that include economic control, media 
control, and political control.
 
The economic control encompasses controlling the American economy 
through big bank mergers, the Federal Reserve, and tax-exempt 
foundations protecting big money families.  Many congressmen and 
political activists have attempted to investigate and expose 
these financial manipulations, as well as call for an audit or 
repeal of the Federal Reserve, including  Representative Wright 
Patman of Texas, Congressman Charles Lindbergh, Sr., Congressman 
Louis T. McFadden, Congressman Carroll Reece, Congressman Larry 
P. McDonald, Senator John Heinz, and Senator John Tower, Senator 
Jesse Helms, Lt. Col. Archibald Roberts, Congressman John Rarick, 
Senator Jack Metcalf, Representative Henry Gonzales of Texas, 
Representative Phil Crane of Illinois.  As a result, some have 
been harassed and even killed in so-called accidents.
 
Congressional committee investigations have concluded that 
basically those behind tax-exempt foundations and those behind 
the Federal Reserve are basically all the same people.  The top 
eight stockholders in the Federal Reserve include:  Rothschild 
Banks of London and Berlin (the Rothschild family was closely 
allied with Freemasonry); Lazard Brothers Banks of Paris; Israel 
Moses Seif Banks of Italy; Warburg Bank of Hamburg and Amsterdam; 
Lehman Brothers Bank of New York; Kuhn, Loeb Bank of New York; 
Chase Manhattan Bank of New York; and Goldman, Sachs Bank of New 
York.
 
Political control is also one of their plans.  The tax-exempt 
foundations were found to reach "far into government, into the 
policymaking circles of Congress and into the State Department."  
The foundations served not just as tax shelters, but also to fund 
major think-tanks which have influenced "virtually every aspect 
of American life."  The think-tanks served to shape public 
opinion, to promote certain teachers and experts in foreign 
affairs, to dominate "learned journals in international affairs," 
to appoint State Department officials to foundation jobs, 
controlling academic research of social sciences, public 
education and international affairs through funding grants and 
controlling research monies, and to appoint foundation officials 
to State Department jobs.  At least "one foreign foundation 
[originated by Cecil Rhodes, a close ally of the Rothschilds and 
European Freemasonry] was allied with the major U.S. foundations 
in shaping our foreign policy."
 
Foundations, businesses, families, banks, think-tanks, and 
capitalists mentioned in connection with these plans include:  
The Rothschilds, the Warburgs, Kuhn, Loeb, J.P. Morgan, 
Rockefellers, the Carnegies, Standard Oil, Chemical Bank, the 
Harrimans, Chase Manhattan, Citibank, Exxon, Mobil, Sohio, 
Marathon, Phillips 66, Chevron, Humble Oil, Arco, Texaco, 
Rockefeller Foundation, Ford Foundation, Carnegie Foundation, 
Guggenheim Foundation, United Nations Association, Institute of 
Pacific Relations, Council on Foreign Relations, Rhodes 
Scholarship Fund, Trilateral Commission, Royal Institute of 
International Affairs, Dartmouth Conference, Aspen Institute for 
Humanistic Studies, Atlantic Institute, Club of Rome, 
Bilderberger Group, the Nobel prize, Brookings Institute, Rand 
Corporation, Hudson Institute, Middle East Institute, 
International Monetary Fund, and World Bank.
 
>From the perspective of those involved in the conspiracy, 
national boundaries, political philosophies, and constitutions 
simply do not matter.  "All that matters to this club is the 
maximization of profits resulting from the practice of what can 
be described as finance capitalism, a system which rests upon the 
twin pillars of debt and monopoly.  This isn't real capitalism.  
It is the road to economic concentration and to political 
slavery."
 
Many divisions of our government are dominated by Freemasonry, 
CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) and TC (Trilateral Commission) 
members, including State Department, Treasury Department, 
National Security Council, the Presidency of the United States, 
Federal Reserve officials, Defense Department, U.S. ambassadors, 
National Security Advisors, Secretary of Defense,  Supreme Allied 
Commander of Europe, U.S. ambassadors to NATO, CIA Directors, 
Attorney General, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
 
"Not only have presidents belonged to these organizations, but 
the candidates running on the opposing tickets have, almost 
without exception, been members as well....Regardless of who gets 
elected, the same agenda moves forward, because candidates from 
both parties are consistently drawn from the same school of 
thought espousing" a new world order.
 
Media control is also part of their plan.  Democracy does not 
stand a chance against such a conspiracy as long as there is no 
free press to keep the U.S. citizens informed.  The media were 
also found to be dominated by CFR and TC members, including 
William Paley, Dan Rather, Harry Reasoner, Bill Moyers, Tom 
Brokaw, John Chancellor, Marvin Kalb, Irving R. Levine, David 
Brinkley, John Scali, Barbara Walters, Daniel Schorr, Robert 
McNeil, Jim Lehrer, and Hodding Carter III.  Various 
congressional reports indicate a growing control of CBS, NBC, and 
ABC stock by the Rockefeller family bank, Chase Manhattan.
 
"Independent newspapers [531 in 1983, down from 1,381 in 1945] 
have also been the target of establishment takeovers and 
mergers....Major newspapers, [magazines, and book publishers] 
influenced by CFR" and/or TC members include New York Times, 
Newsweek, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Dow Jones & Co., 
Boston Globe, Baltimore Sun, Chicago Sun Times, Los Angeles 
Times, Houston Post, Minneapolis Star, Arkansas Gazette, Des 
Moines Register, USA Today, Denver Post, Time, Life, People, 
Fortune, Money, Sports Illustrated, Business Week, US News & 
World Report, Saturday Review, Reader's Digest, Atlantic Monthly, 
McCalls, Harpers, MacMillan, Random House, Harper & Row, Cowles 
Publishing, Simon & Schuster, McGraw-Hill, Viking Press, Little 
Brown & Co., Harper Brothers, Xerox Corporation, IBM Publishing & 
Printing, Yale University Press, and newspapers in more than 40 
other U.S. cities.
 
The Rockefeller and Carnegie Foundations have influenced the 
education of American children.  During this century, they 
supplied or stimulated prominent funding for institutions of 
higher learning.  In the early 1930's they backed John Dewey's 
socialist philosophy.  They financed the writing of textbooks, 
the National Education Association, and teacher training schools.  
Rene Wormser, Counsel for the Senate investigative Reece 
Committee said that these "foundations nurtured some of the most 
ardent academic advocates of upsetting the American system and 
supplanting it with a Socialist state....By 1934 the NEA adopted 
John Dewey's philosophy of humanism, socialism, and globalism, 
and incorporated it into the classroom."  At this same time Dewey 
went to Russia and organized the Marxist system of education 
there.
 
These foundations "also spent millions of dollars on rewriting 
history books and creating textbooks that undermined patriotism 
and free enterprise."  One series of textbooks espoused Marxist 
propaganda to such an "extent that the California legislature 
refused to appropriate money for them."
 
The author's investigation into Freemasonry included interviewing 
former and current members, some of whom had reached the level of 
either Thirty-Second or Thirty-Third degree.  "The testimonies of 
current Masons differed drastically from those of Masons who had 
left the Order.  Current members expressed no knowledge 
whatsoever of any higher religious aims of the Order.  They were 
fiercely loyal to the lodge and told me that Freemasonry was 
nothing more than an international secret fraternity based on 
good works.  Former Masons, on the other hand, offered views that 
could not have been more opposite from those of their 
counterparts.  They told me that the organization was anti-Christ 
and that it was dangerous, particularly in its higher levels, 
citing the previous as their main reason for leaving, adding that 
it was Luciferically-inspired....[Regarding the discrepancy] I 
concluded that current members either would not reveal what they 
knew because of the oaths of secrecy they had taken or else they 
truly were unaware of these things, not yet having reached a 
level where they were exposed to the underlying purpose of their 
Order."  One researcher had gathered secret Masonic materials and 
writings for over twenty years "from widows of deceased Masons 
who were unaware of the significance of the Order and its 
literature."  The Illuminati and Knights Templars received 
repeated mention throughout, confirming that Freemasonry is a 
continuation of the Illuminati.
 
Historically, the high level Masons (above Thirty-Third degree) 
took their teachings from the Illuminati, who in turn took their 
teachings from the Knights Templars, who in turn took their 
teachings from the Gnostics.  The Gnostics believed God had two 
sons, Satanael, the elder son, and Jesus, the younger son.  
Satanael, "filled with pride, he rebelled against his Father and 
fell from Heaven," creating the visible world, "man, and the 
serpent which became his minister.  Later Christ came to earth in 
order to show men the way to Heaven, but His death was 
ineffectual, for even by descending into Hell He could not wrest 
the power from Satanael.  This belief in the impotence of Christ 
and the necessity therefore for placating Satan, not only 'Prince 
of this world,' but its creator, led to the further doctrine that 
Satan, being all-powerful, should be adored" and worshipped.
 
The Knights Templars were initially a religious and military 
organization during the crusades, composed of nobles who were 
"granted favors by many European rulers and gained possession of 
property throughout the continent.  Through gifts of land and 
money, the Templars became extremely wealthy and powerful."  By 
1300 "the Templars, through their enormous wealth and widespread 
organization, had become the bankers of Europe...."
 
According to an official text of the Masons, Morals and Dogma, 
"Their watchword was, to become wealthy in order to buy the 
world."  Later the King of France arrested the Knights Templars 
and conducted an investigation.  "The knights confessed to a 
variety of notorious crimes and admitted to taking blasphemous 
oaths against Jesus Christ upon admission into the order."  These 
crimes consisted of spitting upon the crucifix, committing 
obscenities, and practicing unnatural vices (sodomy).  The Pope 
intervened to protect his papal jurisdiction.  Later, due to 
mounting public pressure, he launched his own investigation for 
fear the King's had involved torture.  The Pope's investigation 
revealed the same results.  In front of witnesses and without 
torture, the knights admitted to abominations, indecencies, and 
obscenities.  "The Knights Templars, as it turned out, had been 
masters of deception, expert in duplicity, appearing to serve 
Christ on the surface while worshipping Lucifer within their 
inner rites."  Morals and Dogma confirmed that they "had two 
doctrines, one concealed and reserved for the Masters...the other 
public."  The Pope abolished the order.  It then went 
underground, trusting its dangerous secrets only to those who had 
passed successfully through a series of degrees.  Hundreds of 
years later, they surfaced again, this time as a benevolent 
organization of good works, taking over the stone mason guilds of 
Europe, since the original Knights Templars had viewed themselves 
as grand builders and had with their riches built many castles 
and estates.  The stone mason guilds were eager to make the union 
because they were at that time in danger of going under due to 
their shrinking numbers.  The transition was successful with the 
public viewing it favorably as an organization of simple good 
works.
 
By 1776, Adam Weishaupt, a famous Mason, had developed the 
Illuminati, a secret society within a secret society.  One 
Masonic historian himself has stated that the goals include 
"found[ing] a new Hierarchy, to overturn all authority, and to 
press down all the Social Order under the level of Equality."  
Another Masonic historian stated "the express aim of the Order 
was to abolish Christianity, and overturn all civil government."  
In Weishaupt's own words, the Illuminati "will by degrees, and in 
silence, possess themselves of the government of the States, and 
make use of those means for this purpose...."  Around 1782, 
Weishaupt "succeeded at forging an alliance between illuminized 
Freemasonry and the growing Rothschild banking network, thereby 
giving the Order the financial means to begin to carry out its 
plans."  By making an alliance with international financiers, "it 
took root, it grew, it flourished, it gathered into itself more 
men of royal and noble titles than were possessed by the 
Hohenzollern family; even the Jesuits joined it."  Weishaupt 
convinced many Christian leaders to join by holding out the 
Illuminati as a Christian organization with the express purpose 
of unifying the world for the sake of Christ.  The World Council 
of Churches, "an organization that is strongly influenced by 
Freemasonry," continues Weishaupt's work by promoting interfaith 
unity despite the requisite compromise of each individual faith.  
Weishaupt himself wrote of his sarcastic glee in getting a famous 
protestant minister to join by believing that the Illuminati were 
genuinely Christian, "O Man, Man!  To what may'st thou not be 
persuaded."
 
During the 1800's, as the United States began to emerge as a 
world power, the Illuminati shifted its attention from Europe to 
the U.S.  "In fact, many of this country's political founding 
fathers were Masons.  Most of them, like George Washington, were 
decent men who knew of no higher aims of the Order and who even 
spoke out against the activities of the Illuminati."
 
Albert Pike, an illuminized Freemason, stated in the 1800's, "The 
blind Force of the people is a Force that must be economized, and 
also managed....It must be regulated by Intellect [a reference to 
the Illuminati or the highest adepts of Freemasonry]....When all 
these Forces are combined, and guided by the Intellect, and 
regulated by the RULE of Right, and Justice....the great 
revolution prepared for by the ages will begin to march.  It is 
because Force is ill regulated that revolutions prove failures."  
Pike authored a book called "The Book of Apadno, which 'contains 
the prophecies concerning the reign of the Anti-Christ from the 
Satanic point of view.'"  He also organized many headquarters 
around the world "for the purpose of gathering information vital 
to political and propaganda efforts."  Speaking as the leader of 
all Freemasonry, Pike said, "We worship a God, but it is the God 
that one adores without superstition....The Masonic religion 
should be, by all of us initiates of the high degrees, maintained 
in the purity of the Luciferic doctrine."
 
"The success of a conspiracy depends on its ability to conceal 
from the masses the truth of what they are working for.  The 
conspirators will, therefore, bring no more people into their 
inner circle than what is absolutely necessary for the success of 
their mission."  This is why the higher Masonic degrees cannot be 
earned by good works, but only conferred from above.  The lower 
Masonic degrees, earned by countless hours of establishing 
hospitals or helping the crippled, serve as a shield made up of 
innocents between the public and the true intentions of the 
Masonic hierarchy.
 
The role of the Soviet Union in the development of a new world 
order involves the birth of communism.  Karl Marx was hired by 
the League of Just Men, a branch organization of the Illuminati, 
to write the Communist Manifesto and to penetrate and subvert the 
labor movement in France.  In the early days of the revolution, 
"the revolutionaries called themselves Spartacusts (after Adam 
Weishaupt's Illuminati pseudonym) before becoming known as 
Bolsheviks and later as Communists."  There were other Illuminati 
who infiltrated the labor movement.  On the labor movement's 
committee charged with the responsibility of making the movement 
international in scope were a personal secretary to one of the 
two highest-ranking officials of the Illuminati, a French 
Freemason, and the secretary of the English Masons' Union.
 
Speaking of the communist revolution, Churchill said, "From the 
days of Spartacus-Weishaupt, to those of Karl Marx, to those of 
Trotsky...this worldwide conspiracy for the overthrow of 
civilization and for the reconstitution of society on the basis 
of arrested development and envious malevolence, and impossible 
equality has been steadily growing.  It has been the mainspring 
of every subversive movement during the nineteenth century...."
 
The larger plan was to create and spark war, acts of terrorism, 
and military aggression so that the people of the world would 
conclude that nationalism was responsible for war.  Therefore, 
the goal would become elimination of national boundaries and 
acceptance of an authority that would speak for a new world 
order, promising world peace.  "There is direct evidence to 
suggest that the hidden powers have been planning for the 
eventual merger of the United States and the Soviet Union all 
along, but not until after a prolonged period of Cold War had 
accomplished their objectives.  This evidence surfaced during the 
Reece Committee investigations into tax-exempt foundations during 
the 1950's."  Norman Dodd, the director of research for the 
committee, had a conversation with H. Rowan Gaither, president of 
the Ford Foundation and a member of the Council on Foreign 
Relations.  Gaither said, "All of us here at the policymaking 
level have had experience, either in O.S.S. (Office of Strategic 
Services) or the European Economic Administration, with 
directives from the White House.  We operate under those 
directives here.  Would you like to know what those directives 
are?"  Dodd said that he would.  Gaither then said, "The 
substance of them is that we shall use our grant-making power so 
to alter life in the United States that we can be comfortably 
merged with the Soviet Union."  When Dodd requested him to repeat 
this before the Reece Committee, Gaither declined, "That we would 
not think of doing."
 
As a religion, Masonry exhorts its members to omit Christ's name 
from prayer.  One Masonic instruction says, "To offer prayer in 
the name of Christ, is contrary to the universality of Masonry."  
Their source of power is claimed to be Lucifer.  Masonic books 
say, "LUCIFER, the Light-bearer!...Lucifer, the Son of the 
Morning!  Is it he who bears the Light?...Doubt it not!"  Another 
states, "The seething energies of Lucifer are in [the Mason's] 
hands and before he may step onward and upward, he must prove his 
ability to properly apply (this) energy."  Albert Pike said, 
"Lucifer is God....Lucifer, God of Light and God of Good, is 
struggling for humanity against Adonay [The God of the 
Christians] the God of Darkness and Evil."  Pike also states that 
the goals of Masonry are "the destruction of Christianity and 
atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time."  One 
former member says, "I can tell you that the Lodges always make a 
mockery of Christian Holy Days."
 
Because of the severity of the oaths of secrecy taken by Masonic 
members (i.e., "binding myself under no less penalty than to have 
my left breast torn open and my heart and vitals taken from 
thence and thrown over my left shoulder and carried into the 
valley of Jehosaphat, there to become a prey to the wild beasts 
of the field, and vulture of the air if ever I should prove 
willfully guilty of violating any part of this my solemn 
oath...."), very few defect and even fewer defectors are willing 
to talk.  One such courageous man, Captain William Morgan, wrote 
a book exposing the Masons.  He was kidnapped and drowned in the 
Niagara River in Batavia, New York by several Masons in 1826.  
The publisher of the book was also kidnapped, but outraged 
citizens of Batavia rescued him in time.  Following this 
incident, 45,000 Masons withdrew their membership.  In 1848 one 
of the Masons who had been appointed to assassinate Morgan gave a 
death bed confession of the entire incident.  Charles Finney 
wrote that Morgan "was aware, as Masons generally were at the 
time, that nearly all the civil offices in the country were in 
the hands of Freemasons; and that the press was completely under 
their control....Can [any Mason] who has taken and still adheres 
to the oath of the Royal Arch degree [a particular Masonic 
degree] be trusted in office?  He swears to espouse the cause of 
a companion of this degree when involved in any difficulty, so 
far as to extricate him from the same, whether he be right or 
wrong.  He swears to conceal his crimes, murder and treason not 
excepted."
 
One member included in a Masonic book about famous Masons is John 
Marshall, a Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court.  
Shortly before his death, he said, "The institution of Masonry 
ought to be abandoned, as one capable of producing much evil, and 
incapable of producing any good which might not be affected by 
open means."  Many other powerful politicians have campaigned 
against Masonry, including William Seward (Secretary of State 
under Lincoln), Daniel Webster, Ulysses S. Grant, John Adams, 
James Madison, John Quincy Adams, and Millard Fillmore.  "Anton 
LaVey, the founder and leader of The Church of Satan, gives 
repeated reference to Freemasonry in his book,...'Satanic Ritual 
is a blend of Gnostic, Cabbalistic, Hermetic, and Masonic 
elements....'"
 
"Every problem, no matter how small (or how fabricated), will 
suddenly become a reason for why we need a world government.  The 
most convincing arguments will have to do with the environment, 
global debt, world poverty, and the prevention of war.  A New 
World Order, they will say, is needed because individual nations 
are no longer capable of dealing with these complex problems on 
their own.  The New World Order will appear to come from the 
bottom up, as something that the people of the world want.  It 
will come in the name of democracy, non-threatening -not as a 
system being forced upon us by our politicians."
