As the new U.S. administration prepares to take office amid grave financial and international crises, it may seem counterintuitive to argue that the very unsettled nature of the international system generates a unique opportunity for creative diplomacy.
That opportunity involves a seeming contradiction. On one level, the financial collapse represents a major blow to the standing of the United States. While American political judgments have often proved controversial, the American prescription for a world financial order has generally been unchallenged. Now disillusionment with the United States' management of it is widespread.
At the same time, the magnitude of the debacle makes it impossible for the rest of the world to shelter any longer behind American predominance or American failings.

Clinton, Quigley, and the New World Order 27Jan09 I've been doing a lot of research lately, and I recently came across this little-known quote while reading through Bill Clinton's book My Life. In Chapter 24, he writes:
"I ended 1987 with my third speech of the decade at the Florida Democratic convention
I told the Florida Democrats, "We have to do nothing less than create a new world economic order and secure the place of the American people within it." The central arguments I made were "We've got to pay the price today to secure tomorrow" and "We're all in it together."
In retrospect, my speeches in the late eighties seem interesting to me because of their similarity to what I would say in 1992 and what I tried to do as President."
Recall that Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar. Recall also that one of Clinton's professors at Georgetown was Carroll Quigley, and that he has quoted Quigley and payed homage to him as a mentor many times in his speeches, including his 1992 nomination acceptance speech. In My Life he discusses the "lasting impact" that Quigleys "insights" had on him. On page ix of The Anglo-American Establishment, Quigley writes:
"The Rhodes scholarship established by the terms of Cecil Rhodes' seventh will are known to everyone. What is not so widely known is that Rhodes, in five previous wills, left his fortune to form a secret society, which was to devote itself to the preservation and expansion of the British Empire. And what does not seem to be known to anyone is that this secret society continues to exist to this day. To be sure, [it] is not a childish thing like the Ku Klux Klan, and it does not have any secret robes, secret handclasps, or secret passwords. It does not need any of these, since its members know each other intimately. It probably has no oaths of secrecy nor any formal procedure of initiation. It does, however, exist and holds secret meetings . This Group is, as I shall show, one of the most important historical facts of the twentieth century."
And what were the goals of this "group"? According to Quigley (Tragedy and Hope, pg. 324):
" nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and he economy of the world as a whole. The 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. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basil, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank 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"
And how does he know that? Two pages later he writes:
"I know of the operation of this network because I have studied it for twenty years and was permitted for two years during 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."
This is merely the tip of the iceberg. If you really want to understand the relevance of this quote by Clinton, I highly recommending reading the five part series entitled The Future Is Calling by G. Edward Griffin. All of these Quigley quotes can be found in part two, entitled Secret Societies and Hidden Agendas (though you will benefit greatly if you start with part one.)
Also, read The Trilateral Commission: Usurping Sovereignty by Patrick Wood. Bill Clinton is a member of the Trilateral Commission, which as you will learn if you don't already know was founded in 1973 by David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski with the explicit goal of creating the "new world economic order" that Clinton is talking about. The creation of this new world order, according to the Trilateral Commission's own writings, means "working against the best interest of the United States"[1] to accomplish an "end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece"[2], which will eventually give way to a one world collectivist government run by them from behind the scenes.
Senator Barry Goldwater tried to warn us about this thirty years ago. In his book With No Apologies (1979), he wrote:
"Where I differ from [then Governor Nelson Rockefeller] is in the suggestion implicit throughout his [1962 lectures at Harvard University] that the United States must submerge its national identity and surrender substantial matters of sovereignty to a new political order. The implications in Governor Rockefeller's presentation have become concrete proposals advanced by David Rockefeller's newest international cabal, the Trilateral Commission. Whereas the Council on Foreign Relations is distinctly national in membership, the Trilateral Commission is international It is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States. Zbigniew Brzezinski and David Rockefeller screened and selected every individual who was invited to participate in shaping and administering the proposed new world order." (pg 293)
"What the Trilaterals truly intend is the creation of a worldwide economic power superior to the political governments of the national-states involved As managers and creators of the system they will rule the future." " (pg. 299)

JFK SPEECH ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS TESTING BAN AND WORLD PEACE
A Harrowing speech from JFK to the UN assembly, on the introduction of the limited test ban treaty, it lasted a while, A great speech, not once do you hear him mention New World Order. John Fitzgerald Kennedy (May 29, 1917—November 22, 1963), was the thirty-fifth President of the United States, serving from 1961 until his assassination in 1963. After Kennedy’s leadership as commander of the USS PT-109 during World War II in the South Pacific, his aspirations turned political. Kennedy represented the state of Massachusetts in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1947 to 1953 as a Democrat, and in the U.S. Senate from 1953 until 1961. Kennedy defeated former Vice President and Republican candidate Richard Nixon in the 1960 U.S. presidential election, one of the closest in American...

Kissenger needs to join Teddy in a dirt nap.
Hi, Harold. Didn’t know you had a tribune. International, even.
Jolly good.
Yes, I too was wondering - who is this “Harold Tribune”? And he got Kissinger to write for him!
Global communism is just down the pike, we already have socialism here in the most powerful nation on earth.
Never understood why Nixon selected Kissinger!
I never trusted him, and have no clue why Tricky Dick did.
If he did?
"The nadir of the existing international financial system coincides with simultaneous political crises around the globe. Never have so many transformations occurred at the same time in so many different parts of the world and been made globally accessible via instantaneous communication. The alternative to a new international order is chaos."
I keep wonder when Kissinger is finally going to kick off. The man seems longer-lived than Methuselah.
Maybe... maybe not... depends if the toddler in chief decides he has a brain and starts doing stuff on his own.
The whole thing is a gagger, but I didn't expect him to throw in global warming to prop up his anti-American whacked out views.
Yeah the EU failed because it was not big enough and only marxist-lite. WE need to make it bigger so it will succeed.
Kissinger has been busy with this (click on keyword NWO and it’s all Kissinger, all the time)
Here is one from an earlier thread:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2162175/posts
Kissinger, never one to let a crisis got to waste, has been busy on an important new-world-order project in Russia with Vladimir Putin. Although it has gone virtually unreported in the U.S. media, Kissinger has been featured prominently in the Russian media during his many trips over the past decade to Moscow to meet with Putin and Yevgeny Primakov, the former KGB terror master for the Soviet Union in the Middle East. In 2007, Kissinger and Primakov were appointed by Putin to co-chair a bilateral “working group” of Russian and American political insiders to tackle issues such as global terrorism, nuclear proliferation, and nuclear threats.
...
Meet the new world order, worse than the old one, and all the screwballs can’t wait to get it.
