I believe that ultimate power is split among competing factions of unimaginable evil. Right now they are playing nice together in order to destroy the biggest threat against their power... the regular people that make up western civilization.

In this game you have shifting alliances and their goal of domination under a satanic type leadership is shared by all. But they are not above infighting as they maneuver towards the end game in order to ensure that their faction is in control when the music stops. In the end, they are selfish and narcissistic and unwilling to share. They will destroy their own armies as well as each other in their hubris.

They go by many names -- the Black Nobility, Council of Rome, Knights of Malta, Knights of Pythia, Council of 300, the Illuminati, Freemasons, WEF, Council on Foreign Relations, International Bank of Settlements. This list is not all inclusive and some listed may be subservient to another.

This is their strength and their weakness. It is a strength because it is hard to pin down any one as the PTB. It is a weakness because competing factions are easily splintered.

These groups require complete secrecy. They can only operate in the dark. The internet has been a boon for them, but it is also their ultimate downfall. An awakened populace in our billions will simply swamp the swamp. NCSWIC

And when the last move in this Great Game has been made, and the People are the ones left standing, the world will create a new system of governance and exchange that will provide equality of opportunity for all mankind. What that looks like we can only dream, but men of honor like Donald Trump will be the ones charged with seeing it done.

I can live with that.
