Commenting on the recent Bilderberg Group meeting at Brookstreet Hotel in Kanata, Canada which quietly ended June 11 attended by New York's finest: Hillary Clinton, George Pataki; Henry Kissinger and David Rockefeller.
In my opinion, what they started to plan about 10 years ago is the unification of North America without the consent of the people. It's now in fast-forward.

TRAITORS IN HIGH PLACES
It began in 1921 as a front organization for J.P. Morgan and Company. By World War II it had acquired unrivaled influence on American foreign policy. In fact today it can clearly be regarded as America's shadow government. Hundred's of U.S. government administrators and diplomats have been and continue to be drawn from its ranks - regardless of which party has occupied the White House. That organization is the Council on Foreign Relations.
In educating the public in the ways of the Council on Foreign Relations(CFR) I have found The Shadows of Power by James Perloff to be indispensable. He documents clearly the pro-communist and globalist actions of the CFR. This shadowy group which the major news media only describe in "glowing terms" is hell-bent on the destruction of American sovereignty and freedom. CFR member opinions which usually become implemented as U.S. foreign policy are trumpeted by their primary publication Foreign Affairs. Below is an excerpt from The Shadows of Power illustrating their traitorous actions.(1)
CFR members were interested in exploiting the Second World War--as they had the first-- as a justification for world government. This of course, later became reality in the crude form of the United Nations, which was predominantly their creation . However to involve America in such a body would first require involving it in the war itself. Foreign Affairs preached rearmament; in 1940, a group of Council(CFR) members wrote an appeal that ran in newspapers across the nation asserting that "the United States should immediately declare that a state of war exists between this country and Germany."(2) The globalists hoped to use the Axis threat to force the U.S. and England into a permanent Atlantic alliance-an intermediate step toward a world government. Ads in Foreign Affairs pushed Clarence Streit's book Union Now, while journal's contributors hailed the same objective. In the last issue before Pearl Harbor, the lead article typically maintained:
However, a 1940 gallop poll found eighty-three percent of Americans against participation in a European conflict. The U.S. wasn't about to go to war - unless there was an incident even more insufferable than the Lusitania affair.
While there is no denying the belligerence and atrocities of the Axis powers, it is certainly true that FDR dealt them incitements to attack. Despite our neutrality, and without Congressional approval, he shipped fifty destroyers to Great Britain. This idea originated with the Century Group, an ad hoc organization formed by CFR members.(4) Roosevelt also sent hundreds of millions of ammunition rounds to Britain; ordered ships to sail directly into the war zone and closed all German consulates. The U.S. occupied Iceland and depth-charged U-boats.(If this isn't provocation then I don't know what is!, Steve) But the Germans avoided retaliation, knowing that America's entry into the war would turn the tide against them, as it had n 1917.
Provocation was also given Japan. Henry Stimson, War Secretary and a patriarch of the CFR, wrote in his diary after meeting with the President: "We face the delicate question of the diplomatic fencing to be done so as to be sure Japan is put into the wrong and makes the first bad move--overt move."(5) After a subsequent meeting, he recorded: "The question was how we should maneuver them [the Japanese] into the position of firing the first shot..."(6) The Councils War and Peace Studies Project sent a memorandum to Roosevelt recommending a trade embargo against Japan, which he eventually enacted.(7) In addition, Japan's assets in America were frozen, and the Panama Canal closed to its shipping. On November 26, 1941 -- just eleven days before Pearl Harbor -- the U.S. government sent an ultimatum to the Japanese demanding, as prerequisites to resumed trade, that they withdraw all their troops from China and Indochina, and in effect abrogate their treaty with Germany and Italy. For Tokyo, that proved to be the final slap in the face.
Double Infamy at Pearl Harbor
Over the years, a number of books have documented that Franklin D. Roosevelt had foreknowledge of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor.
The author of The Shadow of Power summarized at length the details of this matter in the December 8, 1986 issue of The New American. We review them here briefly.
American military intelligence had cracked the radio code Tokyo used to communicate with its embassies. As a result, Japanese diplomatic messages in 1941 were known to Wasthington, often on a same-day basis. The decoded intercepts revealed that spies in Hawaii were informing Tokyo of the precise locations of the U.S. warships docked in Pearl Harbor; collectively, the messages suggested an assault would come on or about December 7. These intercepts were routinely sent to the President and to Army Chief of Staff General George Marshall. In addition, separate warnings about the attack-- with varying specificity as to its time-- were transmitted to these two men by or through various officials, including Joseph Grew, our ambassador to Japan; FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover; Senator Guy Gillette, who was acting on a tip from the Korean underground; Congressman Martin Dies; Brigadier General Elliot Thorpe, the U.S. military observer in Java; Colonel F.G.L. Weijerman, the Dutch military attache in Washington; and other sources. Captain Johan Ranneft, the Dutch naval attache in Washington, recorded that U.S. naval intelligence officers told him on December 6 that the Japanese carriers were only 400 miles northwest of Honolulu.(8)
Despite all of this, no alert was passed on to our commanders in Hawaii, Admiral Husband Kimmel and General Walter C. Short. Kimmel's predecessor, Admiral Richardson, had been removed by FDR after protesting the President's order to base the Pacific Fleet in Pearl Harbor, where it was quite vulnerable to attack. Roosevelt and Marshall stripped the island of most of its air defenses shortly before the raid, and allotted it only one third of the surveillance planes needed to reliably detect approaching forces. Perhaps to preserve his station in history, Marshall sent a warning to Hawaii that arrived a few hours after the attack, which left over two thousand Americans dead, and eighteen naval vessels sunk or heavily damaged.
FDR appointed a commission to investigate what had happened. Heading it was Supreme Court justice Owen Roberts, an internationalist friendly with Roosevelt. Two of the other four members were in the CFR. The Roberts Commission absolved Washington of blame, declaring that Pearl Harbor had been caught off guard due to "dereliction of duty" by commanders Kimmel and Short. The two officers long sought court-martials so they might have a fair hearing. This was finally mandated by Congress in 1944. At the court-martials, attorneys for the defendants dug up some of Washington's secrets. The Roberts verdict was overturned: Kimmel was exonerated; Short received a small reprimand; and the onus of blame was fixed squarely on Washington. But the Roosevelt administration suppressed these results, saying public revelation would endanger national security in wartime.(sound familiar? Steve) It then conducted "new" inquiries in which several witnesses were persuaded (bribed? Steve) to change their testimony. Incriminating memoranda in the files of the Navy and War departments were destroyed. The court-martial findings were buried in a forty-volume government report on Pearl Harbor, and few Americans ever learned the truth.
We noted introductively that the CFR has been accused of fondness for Communism and globalism. In light of this, it may be instructive to observe that these two systems were the prime beneficiaries of World War II.

[H]ope for the world's future-the only hope-lies in continued collaboration of the oceanic Commonwealth of Free Nations.
To the overwhelming majority of Englishman, and to every many thousands of Americans, this recognition by both nations of their common needs and common responsibilities is the great good that is coming out of the war, just as for their fathers (and the thought is a warning) the League of Nations was the offset that could be made against the misery of war.(3)
