...14 of the 17 policymakers in the picture currently belong to the Council on Foreign Relations. Two others (Rumsfeld and Laird) are formers members of the CFR. Of the 17, George W. Bush himself is the only one who has not belonged to the organization. "A Snapshot of CFR Dominance" by John F. McManus February 6, 2006 The CFR, a private organization based in New York City, has about 4,200 members,
several hundred of whom are in the Bush administration. Hundreds of CFR members also served in past
administrations, irrespective of whether the president in the White House was a Republican or a Democrat.
The picture below provides just a snapshot of the dominance that the CFR has held over the executive branch of the U.S. government for decades.
Is the CFR dominance at the upper echelons of our government newsworthy? Imagine how the liberals in media would howl if the president assembled a group of 16 influential policy advisers, and it turned out that all but the president himself were past or present members of the National Rifle Association? Or if the president had selected hundreds of NRA members for top posts in his administration? Yet the NRA is an organization boasting millions of members, while the CFR consists of select government officials and the captains and kings of business, finance, and the media. The CFR is so influential that it has been called "the invisible government of the United States." "Power Elite Profiteering: A Case Study" by William Norman Grigg January 23, 2006 Writing in the September 16, 1996 issue of Newsweek, shortly after a
U.S. cruise missile attack on Baghdad, foreign affairs analyst Fareed Zakaria criticized those who described
Saddam Hussein’s survival in power as a "failure of diplomacy in the Middle East." "Nothing could be further
from the truth," Zakaria insisted. "If Saddam Hussein did not exist, we would have to invent him. He is the
linchpin of American policy in the Mideast."
While Zakaria was careful not to specify just who "we" were, one potent clue could be found in his then-current post as managing editor of Foreign Affairs, the journal of the Council on Foreign Relations — the most visible element of the semi-submerged international Power Elite.... "Behind the Presidency" by Thomas R. Eddlem The New American July 25, 2005 Admire him or despise him, George W. Bush is essentially a
figurehead for the tightly knit Establishment oligarchy that actually runs the Executive Branch of our
government.
When a tiny, single-engine Cessna 150 aircraft wafted into restricted Washington, D.C., airspace on May 11, the federal government went to a terrorism threat advisory level of red alert, and the nation's capitol was evacuated. As it happened, the airplane had simply been off course during a trip from Pennsylvania to an air show in North Carolina. But the fallout from the incident revealed volumes about how the executive branch of the federal government is run during a crisis.
