Institutes Worldwide - Proven & Unproven

Existence proven or never disputed

It's hard to categorize a lot of the institutions below, because it's not always clear who's primary purpose they serve. Generally, I tend to look at the country the institute was founded in and who's heading it. British and American representatives can be found in all of these institutions, so one can safely conclude that they are running the globalization show. These institutes have been collected manually by the author of this site over the course of one to two years and several hundred of the smaller ones, for practical reasons, have been omitted from this list. Click here for a quick oversight in which it is shown that a few groups have absorbed the leadership of (almost) all the others.

Existence not proven (from my own viewpoint)

Bormann Organization / Group

Martin Bormann was Hitler's most trusted aide and has never been captured. Some believe he oversaw the transfer of most of the Nazi capital into some 750 corporations in Germany, South-America, and the U.S. He received help from someone like Allen Dulles (SMOM, OSS chief, Pilgrims Society member, later CIA director). The purpose was to establish a future 4th Reich. It's quite obvious that this is linked with the Ratlines and the recruitment of Nazi general Reinhard Gehlen in the aftermath of WWII. I suggest you check Paul Manning's 1981 book 'Martin Bormann: Nazi in Exile' and the person who took over his work, Dave Emory. It seems that Paul Manning and his publisher have been punished severely for putting out the book.

Chateau des Amerois

The castle was owned by Prince Philipp von Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and later by the Solvay family. The Solvay family is one of the leading industrial families of Europe (producer of medicines, plastics, and chemicals like fluor). In their 1996 book, Fritz Springmeier and Cisco Wheeler (very unsure what to think of their information) referred to it as the 'Mothers of Darkness castle'. This obscure castle does indeed exist. More about this in the future.

Club of the Isles

Could easily be the 1001 Club or possibly the Multinational Chairman's Group, because they share many of the same interests. Executive Intelligence Review mentioned it a couple of times. I asked them about the club, but they don't seem to have that much additional info either.

Committee of 26

This group is mentioned in Simon Regan's book 'Who killed Diana?'. The author was informed about this group through his intelligence contacts, including the one who advised him to look into Le Cercle. I quote from his book: "My own security contacts, including the Baroness, had also told me about a highly mysterious organization called the Committee of 26, which is apparently based in Bristol, in England’s West Country. I have never heard of this and can find no other official reference in any file. But it is apparently a super-secret "liaison desk" between the highest echelons of British and American agencies and has the "co-operation" of the French. I was told it was "Old Guard" and worked unilaterally. That is, it was a kind of uncontrolled "super-agency" which answered to no one. I cannot show that this agency even exists... I trust the Baroness, but she was unable to give me any feasible further "chapter and verse." David Icke in his book 'The Biggest Secret' wrote: "Why Bristol? It is a former Knights Templar port and its name has evolved from Barati, the Phoenician goddess. It just so happens that an elite unit of British Intelligence called the Committee of 26 is based there and they use the runway at the British Aerospace complex to fly British and foreign agents in and out of the country... In that period in the 1980s, not only in Bristol, there were strange deaths galore of people at the cutting edge of development in the ‘defence’ industries. "

Committee of 300 or The Olympians

The group former MI6 agent John Coleman talked about back in 1992. It's interesting if you compare the name with the Committee of 26 from a different source. I read chunks of the book, looking for evidence of its existence, but couldn't find it. I have organized the list of names and have been able to copy a significant amount of biographies from prominent and less-prominent members from other hidden organizations John Coleman hasn't talked about. I guess that's a good thing, but as I just said, this doesn't prove anything because most of these names have at least visited Bilderberg once or twice. Coleman should have provided some evidence of its existence. Especially since he gathered so many names you'd guess he could at least point you in the right direction. Instead, he's more worried about copyrights on a book that doesn't back up any of its claims.

Group 13 & I3

These two are said to be assassination teams from Britain and the U.S. You can find some information about Britain's Group 13 here and some information about the NSA's I3 here. The supposed head of Group 13 turned out to be someone who's background cannot be fully traced, not even by the British Parliament. This person and his allies also infiltrated the boards of many arms companies. When such a company, like Astra, isn't useful anymore, they just give themselves huge salaries and run the company into the ground.

Knight's Templar (CIA)

In his 1977 book 'The Night Watch', former CIA officer David Atlee Phillips wrote on page 123: "...that small circle of well-bred, highly educated adventurers who were known to some in the CIA as the 'Knights Templars' - Allen Dulles, Frank Wisner, Kermit Roosevelt, Tracey Barnes, Dick Bissell, and kindred spirits. Other CIA veterans have confirmed the existence of similar associations within the agency, with names like the "Century group" and the "Gold Key group". The first three have been known members of Le Cercle. Of the first two we know they were involved in recruiting Nazis in the wake of WWII. Kermit Roosevelt helped de Marenches in setting up the Safari Club and led Operation Ajax which brought the Shah to power. I find it very interesting all these small hints to Templar organizations within intelligence groups as Le Cercle, the Committee of 26, and now the CIA.

Synarchist Movement of Empire

In reaction to my article on Le Cercle I received some information about the SME from Jeff Steinberg and Pierre Beaudry from of EIR. The SME seems to have been a real European-based multinational and strictly political organization while the Synarchy International is used by EIR to describe an oligarchical occult fascist movement which was brought to the U.S. by the neo-conservative godfather Leo Strauss. The history of the SME and about 40 names of the (fascist Vichy) French side were given by La France Interieure in 1945, so it seems we aren't just talking about a philosophy, but a real secret group with concrete members and meeting places. I suggest you first read the following article of Steinberg. When you're done with that, try this one or do a google search. For more in depth information you might want to read the following books by Pierre Beaudry of EIR (have permission to post them). These draft versions detail the history of the Synarchist movement in about 800+ pages. And don't worry, even if you are familiar with the history of Europe and France, you'll still look up plenty of names and events mentioned in these books.

Synarchy Movement of Empire - Book I
Synarchy Movement of Empire - Book II
Synarchy Movement of Empire - Book III
Synarchy Movement of Empire - Book IV

Here's a quick timeline compiled from the work of Roger Mennevée in Les Documents Politiques, Diplomatiques et Financiers, which was published from 1946 to 1962. This is the part that was sent to me by Pierre Beaudry and it is included in book IV.

1922	The SME is born in Europe and its membership slowly rises over the years.
1932	The SME controls the Theosophy Society and other dissident branches.
February 1934	Jean Coutrot begins his intense recruitment. He creates organizations like the CPEE, PCES, CEPH, CHPS, etc. At that moment, the SME has about 300 members, which will start to rise more rapidly since this point on.
1934	The SME controls the leadership of the Cagoule, a fascist organization which worked to undermine the French republic.
1934	The SME tries to take over the French government through La Cagoule. Fails.
1935	The SME has quietly penetrated the Council of the Order of the Grand Orient of France and the Federal Council of the Grand Lodge of France.
1937	The SME, again, tries to take over the French government through its military wing, the SCRA. Fails.
July 1940	After the Germans have conquered France, the SME ascends to power. The SME in France becomes the Vichy government.
Post WWII	The movement survived, of course, but what happened to the SME as an organization is not clear. In any case, Jean Violet, who was a member of the CSAR, was recruited by Otto von Habsburg and both were primary founders of the international anti-communist psywar group, the Pinay Circle, now known as Le Cercle and headed by Privy Councilors and Rothschild agents.

Tavistock Network

Said to be a worldwide mind-control network. Haven't studied it and don't really have an opinion about it either. The Tavistock Institute is located in London. You saw it in July 2005 when a bomb on a London bus splattered blood and debris on its facade. According to the official history of the Tavistock Institute: "The Tavistock Institute of Human Relations, a novel, interdisciplinary, action orientated research organisation, was founded in London in 1946 with the aid of a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation. It was set up for the specific purpose of actively relating the psychological and social sciences to the needs and concerns of society..."

March 2006: Reaction to an email to the head of the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust (today different from the Tavistock Institute):

1. The Tavistock Clinic was set up in 1920, as a direct consequence of the human catastrophe of the 1914 1918 War. The Tavistock Institute of Human Relations was established in 1946 when the Tavistock Clinic entered the National Health Service. It was planned to be the academic arm of the Tavistock Clinic but eventually became quite separate from the Clinic and moved out of the Tavistock Centre building in 1994. The Tavistock Clinic remains part of the NHS and together with the Portman Clinic now forms the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust. The Institute remains a separate organization, registered as a charity. It has headquarters in Tabernacle Street. There is now very little joint work between the Tavistock Clinic and the Tavistock Institute.

2. I don't believe the 11th Duke of Bedford [Marquess of Tavistock] funded the setting up of the initial Tavistock Clinic. He may have given a donation, as did many distinguished people.

3. The Clinic was planned in 1919 and set up in 1920, largely through the effort of Dr Hugh Crichton Miller, a successful physician who was motivated by the experience of the emotional trauma of patients in the First World War and inspired by psychoanalytic ideas emerging from Vienna. He was effective in raising funds from many society people.

Dr J R Rees [John Rawlings Rees] took over as Medical Director after ten years, in 1933. He later played an important role as director of military psychiatry in the Second World War and many new ideas of group psychotherapy and institutional understanding came from the work of army psychiatrists, which were influential in the Clinic after the War. He was never given a knighthood.

Can I suggest you look up the Tavistock and Portman Trust website for further information? The address is www.tavi-port.org

January 2006: Another person's email to the head of the Tavistock NHS Trust. Talks about the founding of the original clinic in 1920:

.... Doctors who had worked with shell shock patients using psychotherapy wanted this to be more widely available. They had been influenced by Freud’s work.

It was supported by charitable funds and small donations from patients. The charity that set it up was called the Tavistock Institute of Medical Psychology and is still in existence. Crichton Miller, the original Director, had many society connections which enabled him to raise funds.

John Rawlings Rees was a doctor of the original staff of the Tavistock Clinic, became deputy-director in 1926, and full-director in 1933. Became a consulting psychiatrist to the British Army in 1938. Medical doctor for Rudolf Hess since 1941. Founding president of the World Federation for Mental Health since 1948, which acts as a consultant to the United Nations. Died in 1969.

The Brotherhood / The Firm

Mentioned by Kay Griggs, wife of marine colonel George Griggs. According to Kay, her husband usually referred to the loose network he was part of as 'the Brotherhood' or 'the Firm'. She was also talking about a Zionist clique centered in New York City, which had the unofficial name 'the Joint'. Kay describes how there is a network of transnational criminals involved in all kinds of nasty stuff. This includes drug running, illegal arms trade, sexual perversion, mind control, assassinations, and the conducting of terrorism when deemed necessary. The names she mentions seem to be part of the National Security Planning Group crowd (McFarlane, Shultz, and Bush she mentioned), which might have been another incarnation of the Special Group (Jay Rockefeller she mentioned) and the Forty Committee (Henry Kissinger she mentioned).

Unauthorized Foreign Ops Section (UFOS)

According to a person writing under the name of Oswald LeWinter, this is one of the most secret intelligence groups on the planet and is under the direct control of the DCI (CIA director). It has only 20 members of which Oswald LeWinter, who claims to have been a Brigadier-General, was a member once. Today LeWinter is a poet living in Portugal, after having been severely prosecuted in the late 1990s. He has written down some very interesting information and seems to be a friend of the famous author Joseph Trento.

Did you notice that almost every single group we don't know that much about is related to intelligence? We can only guess how much more has been hidden from the public completely.

UFO organizations

If someone thinks the UFO phenomenon is a non-issue, I suggest you take a look at some of the mainstream newspaper articles I gathered here. Whatever it is, the phenomenon is real and it is very likely that secret institutions have been set up to study it.

IPU	IPU stands for the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit, which, supposedly, was set up after the February 1942 Battle of Los Angeles incident. In a 1980 document released through a FOIA request, the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit was part of the Scientific and Technical Branch of the Counterintelligence Directorate. It was dissolved during the late 1950’s and allegedly never reactivated. Their files were surrendered to the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI). You can find scanned documents and a lot of additional info on Majesticdocuments.com.

MJ-12	MJ-12 is said to be a highly secret intelligence agency set up for the purpose of investigating the UFO phenomenon. At the same time they kept all the information from the public. The project was started after the July 1947 UFO wave, followed by a crash in Roswell. Together with the birth of MJ-12 the National Security State was born. Almost anyone who has claimed to have inside information on the group has said that MJ-12 still exists today, although it changes its name once in a while. Many have also added that the group has been privatized, which is a subject that sounds very familiar. There is a large amount of documentation on Majestic 12, although these documents won't be accepted, simply because they are too extraordinary to believe. According to Stanton Friedman, some of the later documents are proven fakes, but the earlier ones stand up to careful scrutiny. You can find scanned documents and a lot of additional info on Majesticdocuments.com.

MAJI Control	Said to be a highly secret department within the Office of Naval Intelligence that deals with the ET issue, today. Look for more info at the books and videos of Dr. Steven Greer.

Screenshot of a supposed 1954 MJ-12 manual. Given a 5-star reliability by majesticdocuments.com,
in part because all of the references in the book turned out exist.

Other

Then there are some societies I won't go into, because they are too 'far out' when there is a complete lack of any evidence they exist. If you're interested in Tamar, Moriah, the Cult of the Serpent, the Grand Druid Council, the Order of the Quest, the Keepers of the Dawn, the ACIO, the Labyrinth Group, or something similar like that, I suggest you do an internet search. I also skipped the Priory the Sion, because I haven't got a clue what to believe about it.

The people with the endless bios
An introduction to the world we live in - Appendix B

Below you can find a list of about 30 of the more important privately-funded globalist institutions which have been established either by Pilgrims Society members, by people connected to the Rockefeller-Kissinger-Rothschild triumvirate, or a combination of these interests. The list will be updated in the future, mainly with less crucial institutes.

Round Table Groups	1891-1920	According to Carroll Quigley (1), Cecil Rhodes established a secret society in 1891, which consisted of a Circle of Initiates and an Association of Helpers. The purpose of this group was to spread the Anglo-Saxon system of banking, trade, and politics all over the world. Rhodes, and the people backing him, claimed that this was their obligation to all the lower classes and non-English masses throughout the world. Rhodes is most famous for launching De Beers Mining Company, but what is less well known is that the Rothschilds provided him with the necessary money to do so. Quigley already mentioned it, but the Rothschilds have admitted to it also (2). According to Quigley, the CFR, the RIIA, and the later Institute of Pacific Relations were part of the outer Round Table Groups, while members of the Circle of Initiates were meeting at another location in London.

Pilgrims Society	1902-1903	As usual, the exact details of its founding aren't known, but we can reach the simple conclusion that the noble and royal families in England and America's East-Coast were the ones responsible for it. The best article on the founding of the Pilgrims that I have seen came from the New York Times of July 18, 1918: "The idea originated with an American. The name "Pilgrim" was suggested by Mr. Burke Roche, M.P. The plan of organization was submitted in June, 1902, to Lord Roberts through General Joseph Wheeler..." Lord Roberts of Kandahar, a Knight of the Garter, approved the plan, but suggested that "Chamberlain" (three were active at the moment) should be consulted. This was never done, but eventually meetings were arranged which were presided over by individuals as Sir Harry Brittain, Lindsay Russell, and Lord Grenville. Roberts would initially preside over the first meeting, but had an important appointment with Field Marshal Horatio Kitchener, a Knight of the Garter, Privy Councilor, Pilgrims Society member, and a Freemasonry District Grand Master of Egypt and Sudan. Kitchener succeeded Lord Roberts as Commander-in-Chief during the Boer War and stood under heavy influence of Cecil Rhodes and Lord Milner, both heads of the Round Table. James Boothby Burke Roche, the person who came up with the term 'Pilgrims', was a financier who peddled between the United States and England. He was an associate of the Vanderbilts and Astors (did not see any Morgans). Burke Roche had enormous marital problems during the last 15 years of the 19th century, refusing to divorce from his wife who did not give him access to his children. Roche, who inherited the title of 3rd Baron Fermoy in 1920 (just 2 months before he died), was the great grandfather of the late Princess Diana, the former wife of Prince Charles. Lord Beresford, a person who attended and spoke at the first Pilgrims meetings, is also named as a founder in some articles. He was an aide-de-camp to the Prince of Wales from 1875 to 1876 and a personal friend of King Edward VII. His brother, Admiral Sir John Beresford, was a Privy Councilor, a friend to the Duke of Kent, and a father of the future Queen Victoria. The Beresford and La Poer families had been influential in England for at least a century at the time the Pilgrims Society was established.

Carnegie Foundations	1910	Besides Pilgrims Society member Andrew Carnegie himself, at least three other men were closely involved in creating the Carnegie Foundations. Daniel Coit Gilman, who once incorporated Skull & Bones into the Russell Trust, helped Carnegie to establish the Carnegie Institution of Washington in 1902. Nicholas Murray Butler, a totalitarian-oriented Pilgrims Society member who donated 10 million dollars to persuade Andrew Carnegie to establish the Carnegie Foundation, is the second one. Elihu Root, a political heavyweight of the time, a descendant of the Luce and Spencer families, and another Pilgrims Society member, is the third one. Root helped Carnegie to establish the Carnegie Corporation of New York in 1911, which became the grant making part of the Carnegie network. Root was the first president of the Carnegie Foundation from 1910 to 1925 and became a founder of Carnegie Europe. He was also the main founder of the CFR in the 1918-1921 period. A huge amount of Pilgrims have been trustees of the Carnegie Foundations. The Carnegie Corporation makes large grants to all the major universities in the United States and southern Africa.

Jekyll Island & Federal Reserve	1910-1913	The creation of the Federal Reserve has largely been credited to the secret 1910 Jekyll Island meeting. This meeting was organized by Senator Aldrich who's daughter had married John D. Rockefeller, Jr. 9 years earlier. All the participants (one unconfirmed) were members of the Pilgrims Society and represented J.P. Morgan, George F. Baker (Chase National Bank; friend of Morgan), or Warburg-Schiff (Rothschild) banking institutes. Henry P. Davison, one of the participants and a close associate of both J.P. Morgan and George F. Baker, came from a family that intermarried with the Aldrich, Peabody, Rockefeller, and Stillman families. Eustace Mullins was the first to expose this Jekyll Island meeting.

Rockefeller Foundation	1913	Incorporated by John D. Rockefeller, Sr. A large amount of Pilgrims have been trustees of the different Rockefeller Foundations.

CFR	1918-1921	The official history of the CFR reads: "Elihu Root (second from left) headed the original Council on Foreign Relations and was instrumental in the founding of its successor... He is shown here (left to right) with Council President and former U.S. Ambassador to Great Britain John W. Davis... at the 1930 opening of the Council’s 65th Street headquarters... But it was a more discreet club of New York financiers and international lawyers organized in June 1918 that most attracted the attention of the Americans from the Peace Conference. Headed by Elihu Root, the secretary of state under Theodore Roosevelt and a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, this select group called itself the Council on Foreign Relations." Elihu Root and John W. Davis were Pilgrims Society members. Root was president of the Carnegie Foundation at the time, an organization he had helped to establish. The Root family has intermarried with the Luce, Pomeroy, and Spencer families. John W. Davis, the founding president of the CFR, was a Rockefeller Foundation trustee and as chairman of the law firm Davis, Polk, & Wardwell he was also servicing clients like J.P. Morgan and U.S. Steel (once owned by Carnegie, but taken over by J.P. Morgan). Davis supposedly also supported the Crusaders, which was one of the Fascist front groups trying to overthrow FDR and his New Deal in 1934. Davis was the uncle of Cyrus Vance and raised him to a large degree. Vance, a Pilgrims Society member, would become the ultra-connected Rockefeller frontman who worked closely with Henry Kissinger, especially in opening up China. Paul M. Warburg, co-founder of the Fed and Partner of the Rothschild agent Jacob Schiff, was a founding director of the CFR. This person was a member of the Pilgrims Society also.

Paneuropa Union	1923	After Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi published his book 'Paneuropa' in 1923, he was approached by Louis Rothschild and Max Warburg. With the money they provided the Paneuropa Union was set up. Leopold S. Amery, a person who helped the Rothschilds in building up the State of Israel (see article on Le Cercle), was providing assistance to this newly created organization. Paul and Felix Warburg gave Coudenhove-Kalergi a tour through the United States and lobbied for support on that side of the ocean. According to Kalergi, Nicholas Murray Butler was one of his most dedicated aides in New York city (3). Butler was president of Columbia University, the one that inspired Andrew Carnegie to set up the Carnegie Endowment, president of the Carnegie Endowment, US president of the Pilgrims Society, a highly influential school system reformer, and a supporter of Georg Hegel and Emmanuel Kant. The Internationale Paneuropa-Union remained active and Kalergi headed it until his death in 1972. Then Otto von Habsburg, a supposed founder of Le Cercle, took over as president and still serves in this position today.

United Nations Association	1944	According to the official history, the UNA (USA) was founded in 1943 under the name American Association for the United Nations (AAUN) and was merely an outgrowth of the League of Nations Non-partisan Association (LNA). George W. Wickersham was one of the two official founders of the LNA. Wickersham was a director of the CFR from 1921 to 1933 and a president from 1933 to 1936. He was also a member of the Pilgrims Society and a Law Partner of William Howard Taft. Taft was another member of The Pilgrims and the son of a co-founder of Skull & Bones. The UNA-USA has been (and still is) dominated by Rockefeller associates and Pilgrims Society members.

Tavistock Institute	1946	According to the official website: "The Tavistock Institute of Human Relations, a novel, interdisciplinary, action orientated research organisation, was founded in London in 1946 with the aid of a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation. It was set up for the specific purpose of actively relating the psychological and social sciences to the needs and concerns of society..." Although no where to be seen in their official bio or anywhere else from a mainstream source, some have claimed the institute was founded in 1921 by the Marquess of Tavistock/Duke of Bedford line (Russell family). Since this is a long time Order of the Garter family it would tie into the same network as the Rockefellers.

United Nations	1946	The New York Times on November 26, 1975, 'Rocky's Rocky Road': "At the founding of the United Nations in San Francisco, Nelson Rockefeller was in the forefront of the struggle to establish not only an American system of political and economic security but a new world order." At this April-June 1945 Conference the representatives of 50 countries drew up the United Nations Charter on International Organization. The United Nations headquarters has been built on land donated by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. The team of international architects hired to built the UN headquarters was headed by Wallace K. Harrison, a principal architect of Rockefeller Center, which was also the location the team was working from (4).

Atlantik-Brücke	1952	Its official history reads: "Since its inception in 1952 by Eric M. Warburg, Atlantik-Brücke has become the key transatlantic institution in Germany. It has developed many important programs, which encompass a broad spectrum of political, economic, and social topics, involving top-level decision-makers from politics and business, high ranking military officers, well-known academics, teachers, high school students, and journalists from both sides of the Atlantic. Our membership consists of more than 500 members." Eric M. Warburg (1900-1990), a New York banker, was the son of Max Warburg who had stayed in Nazi Germany until 1938. Max's brothers were Partners of Jacob Schiff in Kuhn Loeb & Co. and instrumental in setting up the Federal Reserve. (Another) Max Warburg is today's treasurer of Atlantik-Brücke. Walther Kiep, its long time chairman, was the former treasurer of Kohl's CDU. Kiep has been identified as a corrupt politician, deeply involved in the illegal arms sales of the Thyssens and the German intelligence agencies. His bio can be read here. Coincidentally, George H.W. Bush has written a welcome for the site of Atlantik-Brücke.

American Council on Germany	1952	The official history reads: "The ACG was incorporated in 1952 in New York to encourage reconciliation and understanding following the two disastrous wars in the first half of the 20th century. Among its early leaders were John J. and Ellen McCloy, General Lucius D. Clay, Christopher Emmet, Joseph Kaskell, Dr. George N. Shuster, and Eric M. Warburg. Because of their vision of transatlantic cooperation, the Council has served as a key bridge between Germany and the United States for over 50 years." At another part of their website, 'Warburg Chapters,' it reads: "Based on a grant from a business partner of the late Eric M. Warburg, one of the founders of the ACG, Chapters of the Council were established outside of New York." And yet another section, 'Fellowships for Other Mid-Level Professionals,' reads: "The John J. McCloy Fund of the American Council on Germany was established in 1975 as a tribute to John J. McCloy, soldier, statesman, lawyer, banker, and the first civilian U.S. High Commissioner for Germany. Mr. McCloy worked continually to strengthen friendship and cooperation between Germans and Americans." So, Eric M. Warburg and John J. McCloy were two of the primary founders of the American Council on Germany. Warburg's bio can be seen above. McCloy, a Pilgrims Society member, oversaw Germany's return to statehood and released Hitler's industrial backers as Fritz Thyssen, Hjalmar Schacht, Friedrich Flick, and Alfred Krupp. McCloy became a chairman of the Rockefeller's Chase National Bank and a chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations, among other things. Henry Kissinger, Brent Scowcroft, Dean Rusk, Dick Cheney, Richard Holbrooke, Dean Acheson, George Ball, Bill Bradley, Zbigniew Brzezinski, McGeorge Bundy, and Paul Volcker have sat on the board of the American Council on Germany and/or have participated in its meetings.

Bilderberg	1954	Joseph Retinger, a Vatican-loving Polish mystery man with high level connections all over Europe and the United States, seems to have been the primary founder of Bilderberg. He was the person that recruited Prince Bernhard as a "figurehead" (the term used by Retinger's secretary). David Rockefeller was approached on the other side of the ocean. David's answer: "I thought it sounded like a very good idea. It seemed to me that there were problems and misunderstandings between the United States and Europe. And I'm a great believer in conversation as a way to get at the problem, at the roots of difficulties" (5). David seems to have been the only member of Bilderberg that has attended every single meeting since 1954.

Asia Society (New York)	1956	According to their official history: "The Asia Society was founded in 1956 by John D. Rockefeller 3rd to foster understanding between Asians and Americans." Many Pilgrims attend Asia Society meetings.

Rockefeller 3rd, who had a deep and abiding interest in Japan, it assumed its modern form, greatly expanding the range and volume of its programming."

Treaty of Rome	1957	The Treaty of Rome created the European Economic Community, the predessessor of the European Union. It also created the European Atomic Commission. As chef-de-cabinet of Henri Spaak's government, Baron Robert Rothschild worked for two years with Spaak to establish the Treaty of Rome. At the final signing, Paul Henri Spaak whispered to Rothschild: "I think that we have re-established the Roman Empire without a single shot being fired" (6). Etienne Davignon would be Rothschild's follow-up as chef de Cabinet under Spaak in 1964, and would become one of the most influential builders of the (private) European unification movement.

Pugwash Conferences	1957	The prime organizer of the original event was Lord Bertrand Russell. He was a member of the Cambridge Aspostles, just as Lord Victor Rothschild, the 3rd Baron Rothschild and father of today's Lord Jacob Rothschild. Aldous Huxley (wrote 'Brave New World'), John Maynard Keynes (famous economist; close friend of CFR chair and J.P. Morgan chairman Russell C. Leffingwell), and the 'Cambridge spies' (gay; MI5; MI6; 'KGB' spies; close associates of Lord Victor Rothschild) were other members of the Aspostles. The first Pugwash meeting was held at the home of Cyrus Eaton, Sr. in Pugwash, Nova Scotia (7). Eaton began his career working for John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Cyrus Eaton, Jr. would later team up with the Rockefellers to start an investment project in the Soviet Union during the height of the Vietnam war (8). The Rothschilds announced that they would team up with the same Rockefeller company two years later (9).

Dartmouth Conferences	1960	Initiated in 1960 at Dartmouth College in an effort to prevent U.S.-Soviet nuclear conflict. David Rockefeller, a Pilgrims Society member among many other things, was a co-founder and long time participant of the event. It's not mentioned a whole lot, but according to the website of the Presidential Medal of Freedom: "He [David] was also a co-founder of the Dartmouth Conference and the Trilateral Commission, both of which have opened new pathways of communication for world leaders."

Americas Society (New York)	1965	The official history starts out with: "In 1965, a group of noted businessmen led by David Rockefeller founded the Center for Inter-American Relations... The Center for Inter-American Relations was later to be absorbed into Americas Society in 1985. "

Club of Rome	1968	A scientific think tank that tries to identify and solve the most crucial problems of our global society. It communicates their findings to governments and non-government organizations alike. Founders include Aurelio Peccei, at the time second in command of Fiat under Gianni Agnelli (Chase Manhattan; large shareholder Rockefeller Center; friend of Kissinger, David Rockefeller, and the Rothschild family); Carroll Wilson of the Pilgrims, the Carnegie Institution of Washington, and once advisor to its president, Vannevar Bush; and Dean Rusk (Rhodes Scholar; former president of the Rockefeller Foundation; Pilgrims Society and Knights of Malta member). Alexander King was another, more prominent founder. He was a British scientist who had been trusted with some of the most sensitive state secrets. (10)

Williamsburg meetings	1971	According to a 1997 Asia Society publication: "First convened in Williamsburg, Virginia in 1971 by John D. Rockefeller 3rd, the Williamsburg Conference is a preeminent nongovernmental gathering of leading Americans and Asians dedicated to nurturing U.S.-Asian understanding."

1001 Nature Trust / Club	1971-1974	Somewhere buried in the WWF archives: "An economist and a lawyer, Charles de Haes was born in Antwerp in 1938. He first became involved in WWF in the early 1970s when asked by International Trustee Anton Rupert to help create “The 1001: A Nature Trust”. Through this, HRH Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands – WWF founder President – and one thousand other influential individuals agreed to each contribute US$10,000 to WWF. This was designed with a view to achieving financial independence for the secretariat... " Anton Rupert first conferred with Prince Philip, head of WWF UK. Look for more information in the PEHI article on the 1001 Club. The Rothschild Foundation and individual Rothschild family members, through the Club 21 and the Peace Parks Club, are heavy sponsors of the WWF affiliated Peace Parks Foundation, headed by Anton Rupert. The same, but to a lesser extent, is and was true for David and Laurance Rockefeller.

US-USSR Trade and Economic Council	1972	The initial proposal to erect this council was made by an unknown person at the Dartmouth Conference of 1972, which was co-founded and attended by David Rockefeller. George Shultz subsequently did most of the work to bring this organization about. Through his mother's side, the Pratts, Shultz's family has a long history of working with (or for) the Rockefellers. Charles Pratt (1830-1891) merged his company with Standard Oil and became a Partner of John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Charles Millard Pratt (1858-1933) was a treasurer of Standard Oil, while his former mansion, the Charless Pratt House, has been the headquarters of the Council on Foreign Relations since 1945. Shultz himself, a Bechtel director who is (or has been) a Pilgrims Society member, is today's chairman of J.P. Morgan Chase's International Advisory Council. According to his digital Who's Who, David Rockefeller has been chairman of the Overseas Development Council of the US-USSR Trade and Economic Council, Inc. According to the Rockefeller Archive Center, David has been a director of the US-USSR Trade and Economic Council, Inc. (11)

He has served on the Executive Committee from the beginning in mid-1973 and was North American Chairman from mid-1977 through November, 1991. Zbigniew Brzezinski played an important role in the formation of the Commission. He was its first Director (1973-76) and its major intellectual dynamo in those years. Dr. Brzezinski rejoined the Commission in 1981 and now serves on the Executive Committee." Pilgrims Society member George S. Franklin, Jr., who once was a roommate of David Rockefeller, has also been named at times as a co-founder of the Trilateral Commission.

National Council for US-China Trade	1973	According to the official history of the US-China Business Council: "The United States-China Business Council, Inc. is a private, non-profit, non-partisan, member-supported organization. It is the principal organization of US corporations engaged in business relations with the People's Republic of China. Founded in [May] 1973 as the National Council for US-China Trade, the Council originally served the early efforts of US business in China in the absence of formal diplomatic relations between the two nations." This council was founded after Kissinger, a Pilgrims Society member and Rockefeller protege, started his negotiations with China. David Rockefeller is known to have visited China at least in June 1973 where he spoke with Zhou Enlai and other leaders. March 2, 2005, China Institute Of International Studies: "When meeting David Rockefeller in June 1973, Zhou said to him that it was necessary to find appropriate methods conducive to the development of the trade between two sides under different political systems." Gary Allen has posted a picture of one of the early meetings between Zhou and David in his 1976 book 'The Rockefeller Files.'

He was/is one of the trustees of the International Wilderness Foundation which sponsored this meeting. He was at the first of these conferences. His conversion to the relationship between conservation and economic development has been a pioneering one... Many of the energy developments that we have seen have come from his early anticipation of our energy needs... And I'm just delighted to have this opportunity of introducing to you, Edmund de Rothschild." David Rockefeller and James Baker were present at that same 1987 meeting. Baker, Rockefeller, and Edmund de Rothschild have all three been members of the Pilgrims Society. George Hunt, a college level Business Management teacher, a business consultant, and the owner of a small environment company, was warned by the Rockefeller group not to rebuke any of the claims made by Edmund de Rothschild or any other speaker at that conference. Tickets of this low-profile 1987 event were $650 each.

Canada-China Business Council	1978	The Standing Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs, February 7, 1997, the words of Senator Jack Austin, President of Canada-China Business Council: "The Canada-China Business Council was organized in 1978, at the very beginning of the Deng Xiaoping economic reform period. It was organized by a group of leaders, Paul Desmarais [Sr.], Maurice Strong, Paul Lin, and one or two others, to begin the development of a commercial relationship with China." For some reason, Maurice Strong was recruited by the United Nations headquarters in New York at age 17-18 where he supposedly met with the Rockefellers and other influential people. After 2 months, Strong went out on his own again and returned as a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation in 1972, at about the same time he became UN secretary-general. He would remain a close associate of different members of the Rockefeller family throughout his life, not to mention Edmund de Rothschild. The Desmarais family, owners of the Power Corporation with its large interests in Belgium, France and China, are long time board members of Morgan Chase, while Andre Desmarais is today's honorary chairman of the Canada-China Business Council. Andre is also a member of the Chief Executive's Council of International Advisors of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and a director of China's CITIC.

Since 1999, he is a senior partner and managing director of Lazard Partners and since 2003 he is vice-chairman of Rothschild Europe, while also serving as chairman of the Rothschild pension funds. Etienne Davignon is the one who initially challenged Gyllenhammar to establish an organization like the ERT. Davignon has set up and chaired many of the private organizations involved with the European unification movement.

Kissinger and Cyrus Vance to improve understanding between the United States and the People’s Republic of China, and counts former presidents, secretaries of state, national security advisors, and other former senior officials and business leaders among its directors." According to an official biography of Robert C. McFarlane posted at Partnership for a Secure America: "He is a co-founder (with Dr. Henry Kissinger) and Vice Chair of the America-China Society..." McFarlane has been to China with Kissinger in the 1973-1976 period to make intelligence exchanges. Today's National Committee on U.S.-China Relations says it was erected in 1966 and no mention is made of the America-China Society. Kissinger is among the directors of this group though. Cyrus Vance has died.

Maurice Strong's involvement in the New Age environment movement is well documented. Just as his close association to the Rockefellers and Edmund de Rothschild. The Peace Palace, mentioned in the quote above, was built in 1913 by Andrew Carnegie and is the location of the Carnegie Foundation in The Netherlands. It is headed by the Bilderberger, Hans van den Broek, an appointment he received after his daughter became the wife of Prince Maurits of Orange-Nassau.

Friends of Europe	1999	June 4, 1999, The Guardian, 'EU sets limited goals for reform': "Viscount Davignon, now head of Belgium's vast conglomerate Societe Generale, has put together the Friends of Europe group to propose far more sweeping changes in the way the EU is run. He proposes a second chamber for the European parliament to be composed of MPs from national parliaments, and an end to the six-monthly rotation of the council presidency. Above all, he wants to streamline the work of the council of ministers into one economic council, one foreign and security affairs council, and a general affairs council for all other business, run by permanently assigned ministers from each member state."

Policy Network	2000	September 22, 2002, The Sunday Times, 'Rothschild bankrolls Mandelson think tank': "Peter Mandelson, the former secretary of state for Northern Ireland, has found a new backer for his political ambitions in the shape of Sir Evelyn de Rothschild... it is perhaps no surprise that de Rothschild has emerged as the mystery funder of Policy Network, a “super think tank” that boasts some of No 10’s senior policy advisers on its board and is chaired by none other than Mandelson... The sum donated to date is said to be £250,000. The name of the donor is missing from the think tank’s accounts, but its directors have been privately concerned that they will look secretive if they continue to hide his identity. One tipped off The Sunday Times last week: “It hasn’t been publicised, but de Rothschild’s involvement is well known to the board.”" Peter Mandelson was the chairman of the think tank, while Sir Evelyn de Rothschild quietly provided the money. The Policy Network coordinates between the New Democrats in the US and New Labour in the UK.
