Quotes – FBI Director J.Edgar Hoover

“Justice is incidental to law and order.”

The moment he would get something on a senator he’d send one of the errand boys up and advise the senator that we’re in the course of an investigation and by chance happened to come up with this data on your daughter. But we wanted you to know this-we realize you’d want to know it. But don’t have any concern, no one will ever learn about it. Well, Jesus, what does that tell the senator? From that time on, the senator’s right in his pocket.”
– William Sullivan, number three in the FBI under J. Edgar Hoover to Los Angeles Times, 1973

“Never once did I hear anybody, including myself, raise the question: ‘Is this course of action which we have agreed upon lawful, is it legal, is it ethical or moral? … We never gave any thought to this line of reasoning… The one thing we were concerned about was this: Will this course of action work, will it get us what we want?… As far as legality is concerned, morals or ethics, [it] was never raised… I think this suggests really in government that we are amoral. In government … the general atmosphere is one of amorality.”
– William Sullivan, third in the FBI under Hoover to Los Angeles Times, 1973

Quotes – Zbigniew Brzezinski

Zbigniew Brzezinski wrote, four years before birthing the TC with his godfather, David Rockefeller: “[The] nation state as a fundamental unit of man’s organized life has ceased to be the principal creative force.

These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities.”

How many billions of dollars and how many human lives the lack of this science has cost the world.”
– Andrew Lobaczewski, author of the book Political Ponerology: a science on the nature of evil adjusted for political purposes

“Today Americans would be outraged if UN troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful. This is especially true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence.

When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government.”
– Henry Kissinger speaking at the annual Bilderberger meeting, May 21, 1992

Kissinger named 13 target countries for population control, including Brazil, India, Egypt, Mexico, Ethiopia, Columbia, and others.”

It says not that the United States must be more powerful, or most powerful, but that it must be absolutely powerful.”

They’re frauds.”
