Illuminati exposed - Basics: Who, Goal, Tactics

History of the Illuminati secret society - Three major misconceptions, from 1789 to ...

2008-11-27T16:05:00.000-08:00

First misconception - defeated in early years
1. In the first years after it was created, the Illuminati secret society suffered severe defeats, leading to a state near total destruction when the French Revolution took place, 1789. (1)

Reality: in the first years the illuminati achieved a series of successes that would never be repeated again.
The most important was to be able to direct the script for the French Revolution (2), which included unprecedented use of terror.
The terror agenda (2) was one of the weapons used to achieve three other goals within just a few years:
- forcing christians into an underground existence, like in the first years under the Roman Empire;
- the first attempt of world government, using Napoleon Bonaparte in the Emperor Role;
- pushing that attempt as far as achieving the milestone of an illuminati army entering Moscow, something that they were not able to repeat in the second (Emperor Wilhelm II) and third attempt (Hitler).

Notes about the first misconception
(1) In Illuminati's Wikipedia, where any truth about any major misconception will be immediately deleted, this is how this lie is propagated:
Internal rupture and panic over succession preceded its downfall, which was effected by The Secular Edict made by the Bavarian government in 1785.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminati
Reminder: the Illuminati FULL STORY was exposed first from October 1998 to March 24, 1999, by Matt Marriott
http://who-are-the-illuminati.blogspot.com/2004/05/who-are-illuminati.html

(2) Example of how the Illuminati will reveal facts - in this case illustrating the fact that "Illuminati directed the French Revolution script" - while simultaneously selling a core lie - in this case what the goal of the terror agenda was.

Revealing data about ensuring control of the script for the French Revolution 1789
France was to be the first ...
The Illuminati agents took over the leadership positions of the Lodges of Freemasonry and pushed forward Illuminati plans--thus a secret society was within another secret society.
The famous occultist Cagliostro, revealed that "By March 1789, the 266 Masonic lodges controlled by the Grand Orient were all `Illuminized' without knowing it, for the Freemasons in general, were not told the name of the sect that brought them these mysteries. In the following month the Revolution broke out." And during the Revolution, the number of Masonic lodges rose to 630 in Paris alone!
The Illuminati established the Club Breton in France, which latter became the Jacobin Club which was the center of action for the Illuminati and Freemasonry. During the Revolution, the number of these clubs rose to 2400 nationwide.

Reminding about data related to the terror agenda
The guillotine was the preferred method of execution, and anywhere from 500,000 to over 1,000,000 people perished--mostly made up of those against the revolution.

Who Are the Illuminati?

2004-05-14T15:36:00.000-07:00

Who are the illuminati ? exposed in the CNN Kosovo Board, March 24, 1999, minutes...

The antichrist (total evil) :

The same people that control the banks, insurance companies, big factories, big real estate.
The same people that control all the mass media in the NATO countries.
The same people that control the major christian churches, including the Vatican, since John XXIII, except for a short month (1).
The same people that are organised as a secret society in a pyramid of secrecy grades. A secret society from which, after the first grades, there's no escape.
The same people that believe that their god (satan) created a few enlighened (they, the illuminati) and a mass of slaves, whose only purpose is to serve them until the day they decide they should be slaughtered.
The same people that saw the confirmation of the apocalyptic effects of the atomic bomb, in 1945, as the ultimate proof of their religion, the triumph of evil : the proof that evil was capable of destroying creation; in particular the proof that a few illuminati could destroy billions of sheeple in seconds.

The very same people that already before had seen the confirmation of their religion in the fact that they could use such simple means to control the sheeple so perfectly :
- total control of the mass media and schools;
- let the media, schools and major christian churches make people believe that there is no God (evolution theory, the most grotesque and sucessfull lie ever found);
- let the media, schools and "christian" leaders make people believe that "GOOD is BAD and BAD is GOOD". This tactic relies on two priorities : obscuring and inverting the line. Examples : it's not possible to trace a line between BAD and GOOD, everything is gray (2a); belief in God leads to a violent world (2b); creation can be improved (genetic engineering); human life is irrelevant (abortion); family is an obstacle to "individual freedom"; sense of life is to become God ("conquest of the universe" : moon landing hoax in 1969; "explanation of life" (new "discoveries" to "update" evolution theory) and "explanation of the universe" (Big Bang, UFO hoax, etc) (3).
- let the media and schools make people believe that they have the right of choice (2c),(7).

The illuminati leaders realised and agreed in 1986, in one of their secret meetings, that the system could only survive at most another 20 years (end of non-renewable resources, demographics, ethnic distribution).
That day they decided that mankind should be reduced to a maximum of 2 million slaves the latest until 2005.
The main tactic goal would be to gain control of Russia's nuclear arsenal and complete the task before any other country gained mutual assured destruction capabilities.

Since the tactic didn't include the survival of western societies in the middle run (beyond those 20 years), these were some other tactics used :
- increase to maximum intensity the brainwash agenda of the masses in the West, so that these could be reduced to zombies (total sheeple), incapble of reacting even at the sight of the doors of the slaugherhouse.
Examples of how the brainwash agenda "GOOD is BAD and BAD is GOOD" was pushed to the utter limits (4) (7) : homosexual political leaders; gay adoption; pedophile "priests"; child pornography; sex slavery trade; legalised genocide of elder in hospitals and homes for elderly as "euthanasia"; generalised drugs addiction : pills, chemical food, marihuana, ecstasy, cocain, heroine, etc (5); genocide of believers.

- mass immigration of muslims to the West. One of the reasons was to use them as a weapon of terror against the natives, as some of these would start reacting, finally realising they were being transported to the slaughter house. Muslim leaders would keep these masses quiet, with the real prospect that in "a few years we will be the majority and will take the power". (6)

- maximum consumption of the last non-renewable resources during that period, to be able to keep productive system going on "normally" until the final showdown.

Publish Date:
message sent by Matt Marriott, to the CNN Kosovo Board, March 24, 1999 - a few minutes before the carpet bombing in Europe started again, after a pause of almost 54 years.

Notes :
1 - Vatican not included in the original message, because this would lead to immediate deletion of the message

2 - Mind control techniques of acceptance by association and refusal by dissociation intensively used.
a) - Example : I perceive Bush as evil. Bush says : there is GOOD and there is BAD. This will lead me to refuse that assertion (dissociation). Conclusions : I reject what Bush says; I'm convinced that everything is gray.
b) - Example : Bush presents himself and is presented by the media as a "christian fundamentalist"; Bush bombs the opposition to oblivion. Conclusions : belief in God leads to extremism; belief in God is incompatible with a peaceful world (dissociation).
c) - Example : media is telling me 24 hours a day that Kerry is the alternative to Bush and vice-versa.
If the starting point is my aversion to Bush (say, because of the Iraq war), even if I was originally a critic of "homosexual marriage", I will start accepting it, since it's part of Kerry's agenda (association) (7).

3 - the best examples to illustrate how grotesque this path is now, is (besides the NASA's Photoshop creations - Mars Rovers, spaceships landing on asteroids or crashing in Jupiter - the Rahelian cloning hoax, that the "serious" media has been regularly bringing into headlines ...

4 - list extended with current examples.

5 - muslims massively used to secure production and supply routes (Balkans - Kosovo; Afghanistan 2.5 years later).

6 - this is the reason why there were no muslim terror attacks in the West.
Only total brainwash and the basic "BIG LIE technique" mechanisms ("the truth is too horrible to dig in") can prevent people from seeing that 9/11 was a Reichstag operation executed by the illuminati.
The Madrid bombings, March 11, 2004 is not as obvious, but it was also planned as a Reichstag type operation.

7 - The illuminati script for Goebbels was designed to lead sheeple into accepting to be cannon fodder.
Not too different from their script before World War I ("breakfast in Paris").
The illuminait propaganda today is designed very differently, since inflamatory military speeches don't fit the current brainwash agenda (generalised drugs addiction, etc, see above) and the current military situation (World War III is not about Verdun or Iwojima, it's about bombing to oblivion civilians, in order to deploy nuclear weapons before the seven seconds final showdown).
That's why the one of the main roles of thousands of journalists in the illuminati payroll is to make people believe that "Kerry is the alternative to Bush and vice-versa".
This time the goal is to keep the sheeple quiet untilt they are slaughtered, not to actively use them as cannon fodder.

Only two who were not illuminati agents did participate in TV political discussions at prime time, ever since Ronald Reagan

2004-05-14T07:38:00.000-07:00

Someone who is not totally brainwashed comments on one of heads of the Web of Disinformation set up by the Illuminati:
"because Alex Jones is indeed a leading, if not the #1 conspiracy theorist radio broadcaster. One starts to question how someone gets so popular and syndicated so quickly."
Had you understand what was explained long ago here, you would not be posing that question, since it is not being a host of a politcs show in mass media that immediately exposes anyone as an illuminati agent.
It is much more simple: ANYONE who takes part on a TV political show, even when he is playing the role of being a ferocious oppositor, is always one of their agents, in charge of selling the BIG LIE.

Exceptions: strong election candidates that were opposing the illuminati, and that resumes to two cases:
- Pim Fortuyn in Holland, who was about to get more than one third of the votes as he was murdered by the illuminati May 2002, two days before the election;
- Oskar Lafontaine in Germany, who the illuminati failed in an attempt to murder and got not enough votes (8.6 pct) to be put in the death list immediately.
As far as Jean Marie Le Pen in France, although he is not an illuminati agent. he played (because of his unability) enough into the illuminati agenda (i.e. becoming an asset for the illuminati in several issues) to be not considered by the illuminati as truly dangerous.

Note added October 2008: Austrian Jörg Haider, governor of Carinthia, who was just murdered by the illuminati after celebrating the elections where he rose from a regional to a national political leader, was the third and last.

Last non illuminati heads of government in US and EU former countries

2004-05-14T06:00:00.000-07:00

The last US president that was a challenge to the illuminati until the end was JFK.

As the illuminati murdered JFK there were two other heads of government that were a challenge for the illuminati, in the former countries that now became EU provinces:
- Charles De Gaulle (France) (1),
- Oliveira Salazar (Portugal)
while Francisco Franco (Spain) and Marcello Caetano, the succesor of Oliveira Salazar, were not a challenge but also not illuminati agents.

After 1975 EVERY government that ruled the US or the EU former countries were illuminati agents, except Reagan (2).

Notes:
(1) From forum's article referenced by "May 1968, France - why did the illuminati do it? Location in end times timeline?", started 2005 before the EU referendum in France, which was one of the last pieces required at that point to complete the script:
"The conspirators did a planning error: EU Referendum in France: why the conspirators miscalculated"

Yes it took more than 30 years to reach the point where paper ballot elections were no more good enough to fulfill any script, in 2004.

(2) Ronald Reagan was not an illuminati, but after the failed illuminati attempt to murder him, he was no more a challenge for the illuminati, although he always refused to assume the role of just following their orders.

TRILATERAL COMMISSION, the true story - exposed worldwide first by Matt Marriott

2004-05-13T05:26:00.000-07:00

1968-1975 - TRILATERAL COMMISSION, a package to sell the Illuminati Truth

Originally, like the moon landing: TRILATERAL COMMISSION, a stage to sell the Illuminati Truth
1969 - the illuminati stage the moon landing using fuzzy black & white technology evoking the first sound movies one generation earlier.

But there was ONE big difference between this hoax and all other hoaxes the illuminati staged in recent years: in 1969 the illuminati really believed that soon they would be able to get to the moon. So even if staging the moon landing hoax was within the BIG LIE framework, the motivation behind it was not.

The TRILATERAL COMMISSION was created by David Rockefeller, short after staging the first moon landing, with Zbigniew Brzezinski as its first executive secretary, and director. The target audience was the upper decile, and above all, the upper centile. (1)

The ideological motivation for creating the TRILATERAL COMMISSION, like for staging the moon landing hoax, was not within the BIG LIE framework. The TRILATERAL COMMISSION was meant to sell the Illuminati Truth.

TRILATERAL COMMISSION: selling the obvious goal

To sell the obvious goal of the TRILATERAL COMMISSION, i.e. the New Word Order aka One World Government, the mind control technique "Package vs. Contents" was used.

The package for stating the goals: "Close Trilateral cooperation in keeping the peace, in managing the world economy, in fostering economic redevelopment, and alleviating world poverty will improve the chances of a smooth, and peaceful evolution of the global system."

The contents headlines, in the words of Zbigniew Brzezinski: the "nation state as a fundamental unit of man’s organized life has ceased to be the principal creative force: International banks and multinational corporations are acting and planning in terms that are far in advance of the political concepts of the nation-state."

TRILATERAL COMMISSION: selling the TWO ultimate goals

The ultimate goal of the TRILATERAL COMMISSION was to sell the two basic foundations of the TECHNOTRONIC AGE.
The FIRST effective weapon
Selling the first one was again done by stating it in the contents. Again, in the words of Zbigniew Brzezinski:
"... the capacity to assert social and political control over the individual will vastly increase. It will soon be possible to assert ... continuous control over every citizen and to maintain up-to-date files, containing even the most personal details about health and personal behavior of every citizen....
These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities. Power will gravitate into the hands of those who control information. Our existing institutions will be supplanted by pre-crisis management institutions, the task of which will be to identify in advance likely social crises and to develop programs to cope with them."

The SECOND effective weapon
Since this one involves a combination between global genocide and reducing the population from sheeple to zombies. To sell it, Suggestion in its most primitive form, i.e. by stating it without explicitly declaring it to be part of the own agenda, is used.
Brzezinski and William Cohen (Secretary of Defense as World War III begun, 1999), selling what the SECOND effective weapon to ensure that control would be.

Brzezinski 1968: "... looking ahead to the end of the [20th] century, the possibility of biochemical mind control and genetic tinkering with man, including beings which will function like men and reason like them as well, could give rise to some difficult questions."

Cohen, playing the latest version of the old hit at the end of the 20th century, 1997:
"There are some reports, for example, that some countries have been trying to construct something like an Ebola Virus, and that would be a very dangerous phenomenon, to say the least. Alvin Toeffler has written about this in terms of some scientists in their laboratories trying to devise certain types of pathogens that would be ethnic specific so that they could just eliminate certain ethnic groups and races; and others are designing some sort of engineering, some sort of insects that can destroy specific crops. Others are engaging even in an eco- type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves. "

1975-1999: Illuminati foundations succesively crumble - Packaging the Illuminati Truth turns into selling the Illuminati BIG LIE

Again, both mind control techniques, "Package vs. Contents" and Suggestion, were just used to sell the ultimate goal of the TRILATERAL COMMISSION, a goal in which the illuminati also believed.

As the foundations of the illuminati religion of "Order out of Chaos" begun to crumble one after another, starting as early as 1975 (2), the TRILATERAL COMMISSION, like all the other similar illuminati organisations (CFR, etc), mutated into just another illuminati tool totally within the BIG LIE framework, i.e. selling a product that the salesmen know it does not work.
