One of the groups often mentioned in the discussion of the NWO is the Council on Foreign Relations. They do have influence. In fact, you can thank them for our brand new Homeland Security Agency. They actually came up with it over two years ago - before W. was in the White House and long before September 11. It is their plan that the current administration has and continues to implement. As far as a conspiracy goes, there isn't one. They did it all out in the open. Check it out. for yourself.
