The Institute of International Affairs – this institute had two branches: one set up in England called the Royal Institute of International Affairs, and the Council on Foreign Relations was incorporated as the American branch in New York on July 29th 1921. Ben Stewart, Esoteric Agenda
In New York it was known as the Council on Foreign Relations and was a front for J P Morgan and company in association with the very small Round Table Group. Professor Carroll Quigley
The CFR uses individuals and groups to bring pressure from below, to justify the high-level decisions for converting the US from a sovereign constitutional republic to a servile member state of a one-world dictatorship. John Rarick, Congressman
The Council on Foreign Relations is the American branch of a society that originated in England ... and ... believes national boundaries should be obliterated and one-world rule established. Senator Barry Goldwater, author Why Not Victory
If one group is effectively in control of national governments and multinational corporations, promotes world government through control of the media, foundation grants and education, and controls and guides the issues of the day, then they control most options available. The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and the financial powers behind it have done all these things, and promote the New World Order, as they have for over seventy years.

There are two groups of elite men and women that most American people do not know about, but which are a clear threat and danger to the freedom of the American people.
They are the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission. Newell & Kidd, Why a Bankrupt America?
The planning of UN can be traced to the ‘secret steering committee’ established by Secretary Hull in January 1943. All of the members of this secret committee, with the exception of Hull, a Tennessee politician, were members of the Council on Foreign Relations. They saw Hull regularly to plan, select, and guide the labors of the Department’s Advisory Committee. It was, in effect, the coordinating agency for all the State Department’s post-war planning. Professors Shoup & Minter, Imperial Brain Trust: The CFR & United States Foreign Policy, Monthly Review Press 1977
The CFR was a phoney institution; they’ve never had any power at all. They take their orders from the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London, the Rothschilds. This bugaboo about the CFR has always made me laugh. Back in the ’50s everybody thought the United States was ruled by this corrupt, sinister organization. In fact the CFR was a bunch of fat-cats that got together in New York City, had dinner in luxurious hotels ... they were all wealthy people: CEOs of banks and insurance companies and so forth ... They’re strictly a diversion. They had no power, and their policies were always written by the RIIA in London at Chatham House. I can’t find an instance where the CFR has inaugurated a policy of any kind. Even today, people read books from the 50s about the sinister CFR and how sinister they are, like a KGB ruling the US ... I always thought it a joke. James Dyer, interview 2003
For a long time I felt that FDR had developed many thoughts and ideas that were his own to benefit this country, the United States. But, he didn’t. Most of his thoughts, his political ammunition, as it were, were carefully manufactured for him in advance by the Council on Foreign Relations – One World Money group. Brilliantly, with great gusto, like a fine piece of artillery, he exploded that prepared ‘ammunition’ in the middle of an unsuspecting target, the American people, and thus paid off and returned his internationalist political support.
The UN is but a long-range, international banking apparatus clearly set up for financial and economic profit by a small group of powerful One-World revolutionaries, hungry for profit and power.
The depression was the calculated ‘shearing’ of the public by the World Money powers, triggered by the planned sudden shortage of supply of call money in the New York money market ... The One World Government leaders and their ever close bankers have now acquired full control of the money and credit machinery of the US via the creation of the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank. Curtis Dall, My Exploited Father-in-Law
The March 1999 Vaccines feature in Parenting magazine provided all propaganda one would expect from a subsidiary of Time Inc: Time-Warner Inc, the parent company, is a corporate member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). Time’s president, Richard D Parsons, and the Editor-in-Chief of Time, Norman Pearlstine, are longstanding CFR members. One CFR published policy objective is substantial worldwide depopulation including half of the current US population being targeted. This population reduction program is largely funded by the Rockefeller Foundation and the Merck Fund, both financially and administratively linked to the Merck pharmaceutical company – the world’s leading vaccine manufacturer. Dr Len Horowitz, Parenting with Deadly Timely Propaganda
A lot of people join the CFR because they think it is a prestigious organisation. It’ll help them in business. Make good business contracts. They don’t have an understanding that the CFR is really about world domination. About how they and the Trilateral Commission and the Bilderbergers all work together with the banks to control the people ... It’s definitely a criminal organisation, but it’s a criminal organisation with prestige. Aaron Russo, interview Alex Jones
The Council on Foreign Relations, established in New York on July 29 1921, was a front for J P Morgan and company (in itself a front for Rothschild Banking) in associating with this country’s Round Table Group ... Since 1925 substantial contributions from wealthy individuals and foundations associated with the international banking fraternity have financed the activities of the Round Table Group ... The CFR is an extension of the old world imperialistic British oligarchy. Dr James W Wardner, author The Planned Destruction of America
There’s no greater example of the way the Council on Foreign Relations has manipulated history than looking at the profound effect that the United Nations has had on the world and its agencies. The United Nations is with us because of the Council on Foreign Relations. A committee of the Council on Foreign Relations wrote the proposal, handed it to Roosevelt, and then he announced it as if his policy. David Icke
Founded in 1921 by President Wilson’s chief counsel, Colonel Edward House, the CFR operates as the primary adviser to the United States government. The CFR’s principle contact in the US is the CIA. And the chairman of the CFR is the CEO of AIG. With its obvious intelligence links, just think how scary it is to think of a company like AIG. Insurance companies are the foremost private intelligence gathering organisations in the world. Who Killed John O’Neill?
The Council on Foreign Relations is a promotional arm of the ruling elite in the United States of America. Most influential politicians, academics and media personalities are members. And it uses influence to infiltrate the New World Order into scholarly life. And its experts write scholarly pieces to be used in decision matters. Rob Bedard, Elucidation: Exposing the New World Order, 2010
Every CIA Director since 1966 has been a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. Fool Me Twice, 2007
[T]he common interests very largely elude public opinion entirely, and can be managed only by a specialized class whose personal interests reach beyond the locality. Walter Lippmann, Public Opinion 1922, former board member
There is a de facto ‘secret government’ operating nationally and internationally and involved in the highest circles of the US government, exercising an impact over domestic policies and economics ranging between extreme influence to, at times, outright control. This extreme influence to outright control naturally includes the Presidency. The de facto ‘secret government’, much of whose intellectual – and financial – muscle are to be found in the New York office of the CFR, the great tax-free foundations, and certain international firms and corporations. Mike Culbert
That the CFR has been in control of the foreign policy of the United States for some time should now be beyond question. Richard Harwood
A careful examination of what is happening behind the scenes reveals that all of these interests are working in concert with the masters of the Kremlin in order to create what some refer to as a New World Order. Private organizations such as the Council on Foreign Relations, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, the Trilateral Commission, the Dartmouth Conference, the Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies, the Atlantic Institute, and the Bilderberg Group serve to disseminate and to coordinate the plans for this so-called new world order in powerful business, financial, academic, and official circles. Jesse Helms
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is an invitation only membership group made up of about 4000 people that comprise what many observers consider to be the shadow government of America. The CFR is more than a ‘think tank’, it is a network of elitists that control America by creating policies, laws, financial alliances and monopolies ...
The truth about the CFR is that it is a global agenda organization filled with collectivists who advocate depopulation and covert control over America and the world. Cassandra Anderson & Info Wars online
The United States is the world’s largest consumer of oil, and past disruptions of the global oil supply have hurt the American economy. Much of the world’s oil lies beneath Iraq and its Gulf neighbors, such as Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Some experts argue that, if Iraq had built a nuclear weapon, it would have been much harder to deter Saddam from trying to control the Gulf region and, with it, the world oil market.
