8. New World Order Conspiracies

1
origins of the new World order:
Terry Boardman’s book
Mapping
the Mil ennium: Behind the Plans of the New World Order
(Steiner Books, 1999) is an intelligent look at the geopolitical seeds of the NWO. A potted take on his views is available in Boardman’s 2008

article ‘The Roots of the New World Order’, which can be found at: http://www.monju32.webspace.virginmedia.com/NWO14.htm

2
george W Bush and god:
In 2005, Palestinian Foreign Minister Nabil Shaath reported that when asked why he invaded Iraq,

George W Bush claimed that divine inspiration was behind the

action, as reported at: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2005/oct/

07/iraq.usa

Shaath and Palestinian Prime Minister Abu Mazen describe

their meeting with President Bush in the BBC series
Elusive Peace:
Israel and the Arabs
, broadcast on BBC2 in October 2005, details of which can be found at: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/

The
Guardian
on the Bilderbergers:
Charlie Skelton’s telling article

‘Bilderberg 2011: The Tipping Point’ can be read at: http://www.

guardian.co.uk/world/2011/jun/16/bilderberg-2011-tipping-point

‘goldman sachs rules the world’:
This shockingly honest interview with trader Alessio Rastani was broadcast on the BBC

News channel on 26 September 2011 and can be seen at: http://

presidents and secret societies:
An at-a-glance list of former US

presidents and the secret societies they belonged to is available at: http://www.directoryupdate.net/presidents.html

The Grand Chessboard
:
Zbigniew Brzezinski’s influential book was published in 1998 by Basic Books. Many useful and revealing

quotes from it are compiled at: http://www.wanttoknow.info/

7
al-Qaeda myths:
Adam Curtis’s acclaimed 2004 BBC2 series
The Power of Nightmares
was one of the only media sources to tackle the myths around al-Qaeda, but it quickly vanished from

repeat schedules, was never shown in the USA, and never released

on DVD, which may indicate something of its importance.

Unofficial uploads can be found on the internet, and information

on the series can be found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_

Power_of_Nightmares

Bohemian grove
: Jon Ronson’s aforementioned bestseller
Them:
Adventures with Extremists
(Simon & Schuster, 2002) discusses his experience of the Cremation of Care ceremony, while the footage

was included in an episode (‘The Satanic Shadowy Elite?’) of his

Channel 4 series
The Secret Rulers of the World
, broadcast April–

May 2001.

Alex Jones’s much darker take on what he sees as a Satanic

ritual can be seen in his documentary
Dark Secrets: Inside

Bohemian Grove
(available from Jones’s site www.infowars.com), an extract from which can be viewed at: http://www.youtube.com/

2011 British riots:
Many truthseekers ventured the observation that the nihilistic mass rioting across the UK (sparked initial y by a police shooting) between 6 and 10 August 2011 seemed to

have been deliberately allowed. This view was bravely voiced,

to audience derision, by a woman on BBC1’s
Question Time
the week after, which can be watched at: http://www.youtube.com/

surveillance statistics:
Several studies have shown that while it may help to identify offenders, crime is not actual y prevented by CCTV, with numbers of incidents sometimes having
increased
in areas where cameras have been brought in, as a 2009
ABC News

article by Marcus Baram discusses at: http://www.abcnews.go.com/

The georgia guidestones and Denver murals:
The Vigilant Citizen website examines these with some interesting observations at http://vigilantcitizen.com/sinistersites/sinister-sites-the-georgia-guidestones and http://vigilantcitizen.com/sinistersites/

haarp:
One of the best-known conspiracy takes on HAARP is the book
Angels Don’t Play this HAARP: Advances in Tesla Technology
by Dr Nick Begich and Jeane Manning (Earthpulse Press, 1997).
