Council on Foreign Relations & The Federal Reserve
The Joint Chiefs of Staff DoD Publication 1 (1987) Glossary of Department of Defense Military Associated Terms defines:

“COVERT OPERATIONS: (DoD, Interpol, Inter-American Defense Board) Operations which are so planned and executed as to conceal the identity of or permit plausible denial by the sponsor. They differ from clandestine operations in that emphasis is placed on concealment of identity of sponsor rather than on concealment of the operation.”

The Council on Foreign Relations has used covert operations to conceal their identity while methodically taking control of the Department of State, Central Intelligence Agency, and the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the Government. The Council on Foreign Relations established and controls the Federal Reserve System.

The Federal Reserve System has a profound effect on the United States and World economies. Why haven’t any Nobel prize winning Economists noticed the warping of Federal Reserve Systems history; and concealment of the Council on Foreign Relations sponsorship and control? Why haven’t any Nobel prize winning economists explained to the American public what effect one small groups control of the Federal Reserve System can have? How does control of the Fed by one small group change many Nobel prize winning economic theories? Does controlling the Federal Reserve System help to explain why Council on Foreign Relations members have amassed 75% of the nations industrial and financial assets?

Does the Council on Foreign Relations practice a type of insidious McCarthyism where individuals do not get the chance to have their side of the story heard or face their accuser? Does the Council on Foreign Relations secretly blacklist scholars, and members of the media who connect their sponsorship to historical events? Does the Council on Foreign Relations discredit and destroy the careers of such people? Does the Council on Foreign Relations see to it that such people cannot get their material published or distributed?

The way the CFR works is clearly explained by the famous journalist Walter Lippmann. Lippmann was a member of the mysterious Round Table Group; editor of the publication THE NEW REPUBLIC; member of America’s first intelligence organization the INQUIRY; the official interpreter of the meaning of Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points to the British Government; attended the Paris Peace Conference after World War I; and a Council on Foreign Relations founding father.1

Chapter I, of Lippmann’s book, PUBLIC OPINION is titled “The World Outside and the Pictures in Our Heads.” Lippmann, writes,

“This then, will be the clue to our inquiry. We shall assume that what each man does is based not on direct and certain knowledge, but on pictures made by himself or given to him. If his atlas tells him that the world is flat he will not sail near what he believes to be the edge of our planet for fear of falling off. If his maps include a fountain of eternal youth, a Ponce de Leon will go in quest of it. If someone digs up yellow dirt that looks like gold, he will for a time act exactly as if he had found gold. The way in which the world is imagined determines at any particular moment what men will do. It does not determine what they will achieve. It determines their effort, their feelings, their hopes, not their accomplishments and results. The very men who most loudly proclaim their “materialism” and their contempt for “ideologues,” the Marxian communists, place their entire hope on what? On the formulation by propaganda of a class-conscious group. But what is propaganda, if not the effort to alter the picture to which men respond, to substitute one social pattern for another? What is class consciousness but a way of realizing the world? National consciousness but another way? And Professor Giddings’ consciousness of kind [ i.e. stereotypes ], but a process of believing that we recognize among the multitude certain ones marked as our kind?”2

Lippmann’s conclusion is,

“I argue that representative government, either in what is ordinarily called politics, or in industry, cannot be worked successfully, no matter what the basis of election, unless there is an independent, expert organization for making the unseen facts intelligible to those who have to make the decisions...My conclusion is that public opinions must be organized for the press if they are to be sound, not by the press as is the case today. This organization I conceive to be in the first instance the task of a political science that has won its proper place as formulator, in advance of real decision, instead of apologist, critic, or reporter after the decision has been made...”3

The Council on Foreign Relations is the “independent, expert organization” Lippmann is suggesting. Lippmann is advocating the creation of a totalitarian state. If one small group is permitted to control public opinion, that small group can use their power to benefit the aims of the group rather than the public at large. People’s actions are strongly influenced by their knowledge base. People act on their beliefs. By corrupting a persons knowledge base you can manipulate their actions.

Around 1935 men such as George Gallup, Elmo Roper and Archibald Crossley, were studying opinion polling as a tool to help social scientists and psychologists study genuine problems, to learn how people looked at things, and to better understand why people of various backgrounds, interests, loyalties, and information levels held certain opinions. The Council on Foreign Relations funded early work on polling. The Council would use knowledge gained from polls to help script and determine the effectiveness of psycho-political operations. Gallup’s and Roper’s surveys appeared in Fortune magazine. After the war Truman would choose the Director of Fortune magazine to become head of Economic Security Policy for Europe. The Director was a Council on Foreign Relations member named John Kenneth Gailbraith. Elmo Roper would become deputy Director for the Office of Strategic Services in World War II. The Office of Strategic Services would become the Central Intelligence Agency.4
