Controversy of Skull & Bones
Critics are quick to point out that the activity of a student-sponsored privately
run “society” based on exclusivist principles—which leans heavily towards
White Protestant males—on university grounds is at odds with the inclusivist
nature of the modern American educational system. This however, is nothing 
more than a straw man argument for the dangers which burrow beneath this 
garish and grotesque melange of high privilege and entitlement.
As early as 1873, allegations were being lodged against the group (who
informally call themselves ‘Bonesmen’) that they were made privy to student

funds directed to the University for their own usage and that there was a 
disproportionate tendency for its alumni to be selected for key positions in 
finance over other Yale graduates. More serious criminal charges have been 
lodged against the group, alleging that grave-robbing was a regular initiation 
practice for prospective candidates and that the group currently houses the 
remains of Apache leader Geronimo (it is widely held that U.S. Senator and 
known Bonesman Prescott Bush—father and grandfather of future presidents
George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush respectively, themselves also known
Skull & Bones members—was responsible for the theft), former President
Martin van Buren and Mexican revolutionary Pancho Villa.
Still others have lodged the allegations that rape and kidnapping are also
commonplace initiatory trials prospective candidates are expected to undertake
in order to prove both their worthiness as well as their identifiably “elite” natures
as future leaders in the fields of politics and industry by placing themselves
outside the confines of the law, silencing their victims with immeasurably deep
funds. “
Rape is so commonplace on campuses to begin with
,” alleges one victim,
“
that even on Yale you’re going to find it. But with Bonesmen it’s different.
They truly think they’re above the law. And with all the money that floats in and 
out of the Tomb, you start wonder maybe that really is the case.
” Or, as one
former member put it in a 1977 article, “
It’s like trying to look into the Mafia.
Remember, they’re a secret society, too
.”
However, allegations and hearsay are one thing. Proven chains—based not 
on conjecture, but verifiable documentation—reveal a curious web of nepotism 
and cronyism that unquestionably link Skull & Bones to other groups previously 
covered in this book, confirming the group’s reputation of manipulation, 
favoritism and exclusivity.
One of the co-founders of the Council on Foreign Relations was Secretary of
State under Theodore Roosevelt Elihu Root. While serving as a state attorney, 
Root hired a Bonesman named Henry Stimson to serve on his council. Stimson 
later went on to serve as Secretary of War under fellow Bonesman William 
Howard Taft, and eventually Secretary of State under Herbert Hoover—himself 
a co-founder of the Council on Foreign Relations. Stimson was eventually 
nominated as Secretary of War a second time, serving under two presidents—
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (whose links to the Illuminati were explored in 
Chapter Three) and Harry S. Truman (a known Freemason)—during America’s

entry into World War II, where he was one of the leading advocates not only for 
war against Germany but also the construction of the atomic bomb.
Stimson’s point man for the Pentagon for the Manhattan Project (which
oversaw the development of the atomic bomb) was a fellow Bonesman named 
Harvey Hollister Bundy. Bundy’s two sons, William and McGeorge—both also 
notable members of Skull & Bones—later went on the serve key roles as CIA 
and foreign affairs advisors to Presidents Kennedy and Johnson during 
America’s entrance into the Vietnam conflict. Not surprisingly, both also went 
on to hold key roles in the Council on Foreign Relations (William Bundy was 
editor of the Council’s publication
