During her MSNBC program that aired on December 18, Rachel Maddow told her guest Thomas Frank that John Birch Society members are the “New World Order black helicopter folks.”

While most of Maddow’s accusations are based on statements taken out of context, in this particular instance she has it entirely backwards.

The New American magazine, the official news publication of the Society, debunked the black helicopters rumor and other falsehoods as far back as its October 31, 1994 issue:

As for the JBS being the “New World Order folks,” Maddow apparently has confused the Society's members with the people who actually promote it.

The following video clips and and images are just a small sampling of the mountains of documentation on this subject:

George H. W. Bush on the new world order:

Henry Kissinger on the new world order:

Bill Clinton on the new world order:

Gordon Brown on the new world order:

Of all the proponents of the New World Order, few if any have been as influential (and as capable of employing personal wealth and power in order to make it happen) as David Rockefeller.

Rockefeller, who is likely in his last few years of life, confessed in his 2002 autobiography Memoirs this lifelong goal: "For more than a century, ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as “internationalists” and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure — one world, if you will. If that is the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it."

Unfortunately, the dream of a "one world" political and economic structure was a hard sell in the 20th century, given the atrocities that some of the most odious regimes in the world's history inflicted on the people they murdered with impunity.

But that never stopped David Rockefeller and his fellow elites from attempting to sell the concept with some of the most astounding statements one can find in print.

In an August 10, 1973 New York Times article, Rockefeller said the following about Chairman Mao and his "social experiment": "One is impressed immediately by the sense of national harmony.... Whatever the price of the Chinese Revolution, it has obviously succeeded ... in fostering high morale and community purpose. General social and economic progress is no less impressive.... The enormous social advances of China have benefited greatly form the singleness of ideology and purpose.... The social experiment in China under Chairman Mao's leadership is one of the most important and successful in history."

The John Birch Society and its members are not the ones calling for the New World Order. The JBS didn’t make the name up, either. That would be the responsibility of those who are pushing for it.

But don't expect to find a reasoned treatment of the subject matter on the Rachel Maddow show or any other major media outlet.

It's not politically correct.

One more NWO statement In 1974, the Rhodes Scholar who is now President Clinton's Ambassador to Spain, Richard N. Gardner (CFR, TC), penned a signal article in the CFR journal Foreign Affairs entitled "The Hard Road to World Order." Since hopes for "instant world government" had proven illusory, he noted that the best hope for building "the house of world order" lay in a long-range "end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece." This could best be done, he noted, on an ad hoc basis with treaties and international "arrangements" — on environment, trade, security, etc. — that could later be brought within "the central institutions of the U.N. system." This is what Our Global Neighborhood calls "the hardening of so-called soft law." These treaties, which initially appear soft and non-threatening, are gradually given "teeth" to rend national sovereignty asunder. Target: World Government WRITTEN BY WILLIAM F. JASPER MONDAY, 16 SEPTEMBER 1996 Looks like JBS called it right... again!

New World Order Comments about creating a New World Order go back dozens of decades before the ones cited by Mr. Bentley in his article. In fact, a 2002 doctoral dissertation by David Fitzsimons is entitled: "Toward a New World Order: Thomas Paine and the Ideology of Early American Foreign Relations". This dissertation discusses Thomas Paine’s 18th century perceptions of global transformation based upon the American model—even if conducted through wars of conquest to establish a NWO!!

Neil Goldberg The Miracle Candidate Neil Brian Goldberg of Santa Cruz, is the inside bet, to come out of nowhere and defeat all comers for the Ca US Senate seat. How?

reply to ernie Ernie, Good to see you have not been blocked from posting. The problem is that this NWO is NOT being "based on the American model", it is being based on the COMMUNIST model. And the worst part is that they are succeeding.

Origins of the NWO actually DO predate communism After the mind of the pupil has been warned by the pictures of universal happiness, and convinced that it is a possible thing to unite all the inhabitants of the earth in one great society, and after it has been made out, in some measure to the satisfaction of the pupil, that a great addition of happiness is gained by the abolition of national distinctions and animosities, it may frequently be no hard task to make him think that patriotism is a narrow-minded monopolising (sic) sentiment, and even incompatible with the more enlarged views of the Order, namely, the uniting the whole human race into one great and happy society. The "Order" reference is to the Order of the Illuminati, founded by Adam Weishaupt in 1776. The above quote is taken from Proofs of a Conspiracy by John Robinson, A.M., first published in 1798. While the words "new world order" do not appear, the description certainly fits! Carl Marx was no doubt familiar with the Illuminati and their beliefs.

NWO statement Bonnie, another intriguing fact often overlooked in JBS literature, which often elevates Richard Gardner to the level of an "intellectual godfather" of the NWO is that Gardner was merely rehashing the concept of "functionalism", which had been developed by David Mitrany in the 1930s. Mitrany, a Rumanian, who later worked for Chatham House, the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the British Foreign Office, and later for Bilderberg co-founder and Unilever Chairman Paul Rykens, first published the concept in a Chatham House paper "A Working Peace System" (194.
