Transnational Elites and Pernicious Globalization

As
we enter the new year of 2008, themes of a "global community"
and a "unified global approach" are becoming more prevalent.
When
keeping an eye on current events and reading various think tank
projections regarding the future of the world, a sobering picture
begins to emerge. Forecasts are being made of a world in which
a sharp divide exists between the elite and the rest of humanity.
Advanced technology offers those who can afford it a means of
personalized "auto-evolution". "Pernicious globalization"
takes its toll on the world and global elites thrive, leaving
the rest of us in the dust. Increasingly open borders, unchecked
immigration and trends to world governance cause communal conflict
between various groups. The middle class becomes revolutionary
as economic hardship hits hard on millions of Americans. Dictators
utilize life extension technologies to prolong their reign of
terror. A computer simulation offers government agencies and corporations
a system to test marketing strategy and psychological operations
on a virtual mirror of the real world in real time. "Gen-rich"
and "Gen-poor" classes emerge to form a new "biological
caste system".
All
of this would make for a thrilling Sci-Fi novel, but these trends
come not from science fiction - though science fiction has proven
to be a prophetic precursor to these developments -, but from
present day realities seen by the U.K. Ministry of Defense, the
CIA and other prominent individuals in the fields of technology,
science and government.
This
short two part report will attempt to answer these questions:
What impact has globalization had on us and how will it effect
us in the future? How do present day trends in technology, globalization,
politics and government relate to the prospect of a New World
Order?
(Article continues below)
The
New World Order
A
"New World Order" has been heralded by global elites
for many years.
We
are told by these elites that trends to a system of world governance
are only natural, that national sovereignty must be eliminated.
James Paul Warburg, speaking before the US Senate in 1950, stated
that, "We
shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only
question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest
or consent."
Globalization
and advances in technology have undoubtedly impacted our lifestyles,
world-views, and lives dramatically. A "global outlook"
has planted itself in our society, but more so among elites. Zbigniew
Brzezinski writes of this global outlook in his 1970 book, Between
Two Ages: America's Role in the Technetronic Era,
| "A
global human consciousness is for the first time beginning
to manifest itself... we are witnessing the emergence
of transnational elites... composed of international businessmen,
scholars, professional men and public officials. The ties
of these new elites cut across national boundaries, their
perspectives are not confined by national traditions..."
[1] |
The
dissemination and injection of globalist ideology into the collective
vocabulary and consciousness of society has been a leading goal
of such transnational elites. Regional governance in conjunction
with regional economic systems inside a world government has also
been a long term goal of globalist organizations. In order for
these regional systems to operate smoothly and to be generally
accepted, think tanks have undertaken projects of social engineering
on a massive scale to rid the population of "outdated"
ideas of national sovereignty. [2]
The
Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars hosted a conference
in 2002 which was dedicated to the development of strategies to
overcome such "outdated" ideas. The political, social
and economic integration of the United States, Canada, and Mexico
into a union similar to the European Union was discussed. America
was acknowledged by the conference panelists as being one of the
largest obstacles to globalist planning. Expanding the definition
of "we", framing integration in a non threatening manner
and a "winner at the polls" were some of the suggested
social engineering strategies. A summary of the conference states,
| "Further
economic, political, and social integration will depend
on how citizens of the three countries define their national
identities and the degree to which they are willing to cede
some of their countries’ sovereignty to a larger entity."
[3] "Foreign
policy... provides three things for a nation’s citizens:
sovereignty, security, and identity. Sovereignty dictates
that the state’s citizens and government (“we”)
decide policy, identity defines “who we are”
as a nation, and security protects a nation’s sovereignty
and identity. Governments must convince citizens that
the regional project is consistent with these three values
by expanding the definition of the “we.”
[4] |
As
we enter the new year of 2008, themes of a "global community"
and a "unified global approach" are becoming more prevalent.
The United Nations has recently begun an initiative to bring more
into agreement with the "global consciousness" with
a comic book geared towards children. Marvel Comics has teamed
up with the UN to create a comic book that will teach children
"...the value of international cooperation."
[5] Another example comes from the London based think tank
mi2g, which released a statement in late December of 2007 that
stated in part,
| "One
world: The global community of nations is realizing
that regardless of the complex global risk we wish to address,
we all have to come together. The mantra of a "unified
global approach" is becoming essential whether it is
countering climate chaos and environmental degradation...
advanced technologies -- bio, info, nano, robo & AI
-- ... financial systems and systemic risk; or transhumanism
and ethics..." [6] |
Combating
climate change with a "global unified
approach" is a concept that Richard Haass, president of the
Council on Foreign Relations, is quite familiar with. In an article
carried in the Taipei times, Haass writes that sovereignty must
become weaker in a globalized world faced with climate change,
| "Some
governments are prepared to give up elements of sovereignty
to address the threat of global climate change..."
"Globalization thus implies that sovereignty is not
only becoming weaker in reality, but that it needs to
become weaker. States would be wise to weaken sovereignty
in order to protect themselves..."
[7] |
Climate
change "the issue" of 2008
Writing
in the Business Spectator, economist Craig James states that climate
change is "...expected to be the big issue for 2008,
dominating public consciousness..." [8] 2007 saw large amounts
of attention on this issue as well, when U.K. Prime minister Gordon
Brown called for a "New World Order" to combat climate
change. [9]
Impact
of globalization and possible future scenarios
Globalization,
immigration and integration of countries into larger entities
brings with it social and political consequences. The Ministry
of Defense and the Central Intelligence Agency have produced reports
forecasting possible outcomes of globalization and integration.
The reports carry a familiar tone between them; advancing technology
and globalization causing deep divides between elites and the
majority of humanity. The CIA report, "Global Trends 2015",
outlines possible scenarios for pernicious globalization. The
report states,
| "Scenario
Two: Pernicious Globalization Global elites thrive,
but the majority of the world’s population fails to
benefit from globalization... migration becomes a major
source of interstate tension... Internal conflicts increase,
fueled by frustrated expectations, inequities, and heightened
communal tensions..." [1] |
The
Futurist magazine discussed this CIA report in depth in the
May-June 2001 edition. Summarizing trends regarding national and
international governance, the magazine states,
|
"Established governments are likely to lose some control
over their borders as migrants, technology, disease, weapons,
financial transactions, and information of all kinds move
about the world. Corporations and nonprofit organizations
will exert more influence on state affairs. Winners and
losers in globalization will emerge..."
[2] |
The
European Union has seen many of the forecasts cited above come
to pass. Massive immigration throughout the porous EU borders
has caused tension and loss of entry level jobs for native citizens
of the United Kingdom. The signing of the EU treaty in Britain
by Foreign Secretary David Miliband has heightened these tensions.
[3]
In
a an article released by the UK Daily Mail, it is reported that,
"Half a million fewer Britons are in work following the unprecedented
influx of migrants from Eastern Europe..." The Daily Mail
report cites the independent House of Commons Library for
the statistics. The report also states that, "The British
Chamber of Com-merce has already warned that a generation of British
children is at risk of going 'from school straight to welfare'
while migrants fill skills shortages in the economy." [4]
The
United States open borders between Mexico and Canada have allowed
millions of illegal immigrants to flow in and out of the country.
Violent gangs such as the Latino group MS13 - identified by the
FBI as the single most dangerous gang in America - are becoming
more prevalent.
Perhaps
one of the most concerning forecasts comes from the U.K. Ministry
of Defense in a report released in early 2007. The report, "DCDC
Global Strategic Trends Programme 2007-2036", foresees
the middle classes facing increased economic hardship. In response,
| "The
middle classes could become a revolutionary class, taking
the role envisaged for the proletariat by Marx. The globalization
of labour markets and reducing levels of national welfare
provision and employment could reduce peoples’ attachment
to particular states. The growing gap between themselves
and a small number of highly visible super-rich individuals
might fuel disillusion with meritocracy, while the growing
urban under-classes are likely to pose an increasing threat
to social order and stability, as the burden of acquired
debt and the failure of pension provision begins to bite."
[5] |
The
report also states,
|
"Economic globalization and indiscriminate migration
may lead to levels of international integration that effectively
bring interstate warfare to an end; however, it will also
result in communities of interest at every level of society
that transcend national boundaries and could resort to the
use of violence."
[6] |
As
economic crises hit home for millions in America and abroad in
2008 and beyond, feelings of anger and resentment are undoubtedly
going to spread. Trends expert Gerald Celente predicts that in
2008,
|
"Failing banks, busted brokerages, toppled corporate
giants, bankrupt cities, states in default, foreign creditors
cashing out of US securities … whatever the spark,
the stage is set for panic in the streets. When the giant
firms fall, they'll crush the man on the street."
[7] |
Will
the "revolutionary middle class" that poses a threat
to social order - bitten by burdens of debt, globalization, and
economic hardship - become a reality?
Anti-globalists
labeled as terrorists
Former
Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and Italian President Giorgio
Napolitano have both suggested - both vaguely and unmistakably
- that anti-globalists are terrorists. While speaking at a conference
hosted by AKbank in Istanbul Turkey on May 31, 2007, just prior
to the scheduled Bilderberg meeting, Henry Kissinger gave a speech
in which he stated,
"What
we in America call terrorists are really groups of people that
reject the international system..." [1]
In
June of 2007, Italian President Giorgio Napolitano stated during
a press conference that it is, "...psychological terrorism
to suggest the spectre of a European superstate." [2]
H.G.
Wells' words echo eerily across time; "Countless
people... will hate the new world order... and will die protesting
against it..."

Part 2 - The New Age of the Technocratic Elite
Excerpt:
"A
high tech overlay of sensors and monitoring devices tracks workers
activities. Their heart rates, facial expressions, and overall
state are monitored to maintain maximum efficiency. Supercomputers
run software designed to enable testing of efficient social
management and psychological operations against the population
in a virtual world. Artificial Intelligence makes health, political
and educational decisions that were once made by human beings."
