Origins of the Committee of 300
Generally speaking, many theorists attribute the Committee of 300 to a quote
from murdered German industrialist Walther Rathenau in a 1909 article when he
stated, “
Three hundred men, all of whom known one another, direct the
economic destiny of continents and choose their successors from among
themselves
.” At the time, Germany was facing an unprecedented increase in
national wealth, and subsequently, a marked increase in both the cost of living
and contrast between both labor and leisure classes; a discrepancy not helped by
Kaiser Wilhelm II’s contentious relations with distant nations as well as his
diplomatic support with neighboring countries, which precipitated Germany’s
entrance into WWI in 1914. This discrepancy, which saw an increase in wealth
for only a few of the nation’s 15 million residents, found an immediate target
through anti-semitism, which had been a hallmark of German culture since the
Middle Ages.
By 1912, journalists such as Theodor Fritsch declared Rathenau’s statement
an “
open confession of indubitable Jewish hegemony
” (Rathenau was indeed of
Jewish origin) and relied upon the previous century’s apocryphal
Protocols of
the Learned Elders of Zion
—a document since proven to be a hoax—as
testimonial evidence of a global Jewish conspiracy. Despite Rathenau’s
insistence that the three hundred leaders he referred to were industry leaders and
not necessarily Jews (and clarified that he abhorred the ramifications of such
exclusivity), the industrialist was assassinated by three accomplices in 1922, one
of whom, Erwin Kern, explicitly cited Rathenau’s membership in the “300
Elders of Zion” as rationale for the murder.
Still, others trace the existence of the Committee not to early 20th century
Germany, but all the way back to 1727 and the emergence of a mysterious
“Council of 300” orchestrated by the British East India Trading Company.
The East India Trading Company was a private trading company that was
actually officially chartered by Queen Elizabeth I as early as 1600 (it is worth
noting that a constant strategic advisor to the Queen was Sir John Dee, a noted
purveyor of Hermetic and Rosicrucian doctrines.) The company’s primary focus
was within the Indian subcontinent and the Chinese mainland, where it rose to
account for more than half the world’s trade, importing silks, teas, dyes—and
most notably, gunpowder and opium. These trades may have indeed been the
business model for such modern day clandestine operations as the Mafia and
various Central and South American drug cartels.
The company’s shares were owned by various wealthy British merchants and
aristocrats, and was only indirectly controlled by the British government, who
owned no shares. This may be the first instance of a private company holding
more executive power and wealth over trade and exchange than its own
government, but it would be far from the last. It just so happened that many of
these merchants and aristocrats belonged not only to the chivalric Order of the
Garter (one of the highest and most prestigious honors to be bestowed upon a
non-monarchic British subject, and itself a semi-secret society which is the cause
of much speculation), but also Freemasonry and various Masonic offshoots, such
as the Order of the Scarlet Cord, the Red Cross of Constantine, and the Order of
St. John of Jerusalem. It is from the latter (an offshoot of the Knights of Malta,
which in turn is claims direct lineage from the Knights Templar) that the core of
the Council of 300 was alleged to have formed, primarily as an exclusive trade
committee made up of only the most elite and high-ranking European (for at this
point, the founding members of the Council had turned mercenary and
established negotiations and alliances with other European trading unions, such
as the Dutch, French and Portuguese East India Companies and the Barbary
Company) merchants and noblemen of only the highest wealth. It was rumored
that this Council had exclusive control of over 300 ports; hence the title, Council
of 300. Inevitably, these strands were to weave their way into the fabric of the
Illuminati; where they were to weave their way into even more disparate
societies and institutions.
The British East India Trading Company was formally dissolved in 1874,
largely as a result of British colonization of India (which many theorists believe
to be largely the result of a Council of 300 plot.) Competitive maritime trade was
rapidly declining, both as a result of industry saturation as well as the rise of
inter-European continental trade owing to quicker means of transport, such as
the railroad. Yet the Council of 300 had already established themselves as an
unassailable and omnipresent mercantile force, whose numbers had now grown
to some 300 families, individuals and institutions. Some of the more significant
among the latter included the Bank of London, NM Rothschild, Standard Oil
(established by Rockefeller patriarch John D. Rockefeller), De Beers Diamond
and Mining Co. (established by Cecil Rhodes) and Barclays Bank—all of which
have had figures associated with and closely intertwined elsewhere in this book.
Informally, it is said that the Council refers to themselves as “the
Olympians,” owing to their identification with the gods of Greek myth.
It is one thing to wield omniscient power in the fields of industry. But true
power comes from domination of the political sphere. If Freemasonry and the
Illuminati have taught us anything, it is that both politics, industry and an
ulterior agenda hidden and plotted behind impenetrable veils of secrecy have
made for some of the most successful bedfellows in history. Even unsuccessful
political candidates such as Mitt Romney and Donald Trump—both of whom
began their political careers after achieving inordinate success in the spheres of
finance and real estate—are aware of this. The key factor then, is how to
achieve political strength subtly and unobtrusively? The answer is through the
manipulation of public attitudes by the dissemination of information. The
media. To this end, the Council established both non-profit think tanks and
worldwide conglomerates with political aims. Included among some of the more
influential ones are the following four:
1.)
Chatham House, the Royal Institute of Affairs. A private, non-
governmental agency headquartered in London established in 1920,
who claims their mission is “
to help build a sustainably secure,
prosperous and just world
” by “
engaging governments, the private
sector, civil society and its members in open debate and confidential
discussion on the most significant developments in international
affairs
.” In actuality, the Royal Institute of Affairs was established by
Lionel Curtis, a staunch British federalist who worked alongside the
Council of Foreign Relations during its development. Curtis was one of
the direct descendants of the founding core of the Council of 300, and
worked extensively with Illuminati member and Freemason Cecil
Rhodes towards the expansion of British colonization in Africa. In
reality, Chatham House has worked extensively to disseminate views
calling for British unity and expansion as well as publishing reports in
favor not only of a fully integrated European Union, but has also
worked to establish stricter regulations ensuring a centralized
constitution.
