Carroll Quigley was an esteemed professor at Georgetown University and mentor of Bill Clinton. He also served as the historian for the Council on Foreign Relations, where he had carte blanche access to the records of the organization before publishing Tragedy and Hope. There was controversy when the book was published and it was subsequently censored. Here are some quotes from the book: “The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can ‘throw the rascals out’ at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy”……“The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences.” ……… “The Council on Foreign Relations is the American branch of a society which originated in England [and] believes national boundaries should be obliterated and one-world rule established.”
