The Trilateral Commission was founded in 1973 by David Rockefeller with Zbigniew Brzezinski as executive director, after Brzezinski published Between Two Ages, which became the blueprint for the TC. David read and appreciated his ideas, which included,
Though Stalinism may have been a needless tragedy for both the Russian people and communism as an ideal, there is the intellectually tantalizing possibility that for the world at large it was, as we shall see, a blessing in disguise.
Marxism represents a further vital and creative stage in the maturing of mans universal vision. Marxism is simultaneously a victory of the external man over the inner, passive man and a victory of reason over belief.
Such a society would be dominated by an elite whose claim to political power would rest on allegedly superior scientific know-how. Unhindered by the restraints of traditional liberal values, this elite would not hesitate to achieve its political ends by the latest modern techniques for influencing public behavior and keeping society under close surveillance and control.
The Soviet Union could have emerged as the standard-bearer of this centurys most influential system of thought and as the social model for resolving the key dilemmas facing modern man.

Not sure what book this is excerpted from. update, supposedly from brzezinksi's book "between two ages"
On the cult of personality in politics
"Persisting social crisis, the emergence of a charismatic personality, and the exploitation of mass media to obtain public confidence would be the steppingstones in the piecemeal transformation of the United States into a highly controlled society." p97
Western thinking has become conservative:
the world situation should stay as it is at any cost;
there should be no changes. ....
The communist regime in the East could stand and grow due to the enthusiastic support
from an enormous number of Western intellectuals who felt a kinship and refused to see
communism's crimes. And when they no longer could do so, they tried to justify them. In
our Eastern countries, communism has suffered a complete ideological defeat; it is zero
and less than zero. But Western intellectuals still look at it with interest and with
empathy, and this is precisely what makes it so immensely difficult for the West to
withstand the East.

Ummm..., well some people don't like "documentation" and prefer to post spam e-mails, instead... LOL...
And it looks like a classic "bait and switch" to me... :-)
You're relying on anything from Alex Jones, for information??
Isn't InforWars.com the center of the utterly discredited "911 Truthers" movement?

It looks like you should have spent a bit more time preparing on this post... instead of "rushing out" some spam e-mail you just received an hour ago... :-)

That's the only way "InfoWars.com" can get anyone to listen to them... by sending out spam e-mails... LOL...
Ummm..., okay, the way this thread is going, I’m downloading it to my computer, because I feel it’s going to disappear at any moment now... LOL... [maybe not, but “just sayin’ “ ya know...]
I think that “email” pretty much sums it up, especially if one has no spam filter.
Same old crap. Same with this Obama PhD crowd.
These naive, Western elites are always able to write coldly, detached from and devoid of such abject horrors, because after all they are heartless academics, but they would sure change their predictable high-falluting, Ivy League think tank tune about COMMUNISM and extreme communism such as that of Stalinism, were they personally forced to see and experience the reality of it, first hand. As it is, they would not think twice about having cocktails and a rarified-atmospheric debate, polite and all that, with the likes of Beria and Mao and Pol Pot in a privileged, member's only salon somewhere.
That darn pesky CFR....nothing more than just a bipartisan “think tank”...doncha know ;)
From Ziggie’s book: The Grand Chessboard
Remember that government and military leaders often think of politics like a chess game. Sometimes you have to sacrifice your own pieces in order to win the game. Zbigniew Brzezinski, former U.S. National Security Advisor and co-founder of the Trilateral Commission, titled his 1998 book The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives. In this seminal book on American foreign policy, Brzezinksi states that because of popular resistance to U.S. military expansionism, his ambitious strategy for “American global primacy” cant be implemented “except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat.” (The Grand Chessboard, page 211).
