Behind the United States and its Constitution is a small group of men whose sole objective is to enslave the whole world and humanity in their satanic plot for a one world govenment. Now to give you a very clear picture of this satanic plot, I will go back to its beginning, back to the middle of the 18th Century, and name the men who put that plot into action.

This satanic plot was launched back in the 1760's when it first came into existence under the name of the Illuminati. This Illuminati was organized by one Adam Weishaupt who became a convert to Catholicism and later a Catholic priest. Then, at the request of the Financiers, he defected from the Catholic Church, and organized the Illuminati which was financed by the International Bankers. Every war since then, beginning with the French Revolution, has been promoted by the Illuminati operating under various names and guises.

I say under various names and guises because, after the Illuminati was exposed and became too notorious, Weishaupt and his co- conspirators began to operate under various other names.

Let's not bring Satan into this. We're just power freaks, and we love money. We want it ALL.

I thought the Illuminati was a group invented by the Illiterati.

There's little doubt the Illuminati actually existed. The question is how influential they were and whether they exercised the kind of control which is often claimed.
