Milner in financing the Russian Revolution.... The financier just mentioned was by no means alone among the British to support the Russian revolution with large financial donations." Another name specifically mentioned by de Goulevitch was that of Sir George Buchanan, the British Ambassador to Russia at the time.1

It was one thing for Americans to undermine Tsarist Russia and, thus, indirectly help Germany in the war, because Americans were not then into it, but for British citizens to do so was tantamount to treason. To understand what higher loyalty compelled these men to betray their battlefield ally and to sacrifice the blood of their own countrymen, we must take a look at the unique organization to which they belonged.

THE SECRET SOCIETY

Lord Alfred Milner was a key figure in organizing a secret society which, at the time of these events, was about sixteen years old. It was dedicated to nothing less than the quiet domination of the world. The conquest of Russia was seen as but the first phase of that plan. Since the organization is still in existence today and continues to make progress toward its goal, it is important to have its history included in this narrative.

One of the most authoritative reference works on the history of this group is Tragedy and Hope by Dr. Carroll Quigley. Dr. Quigley Was a professor of history at Georgetown University where President Clinton had been one of his students. He was the author of the 1 - See Arsene de Goulevitch, Czarism and Revolution (Hawthorne, California: Omru Publications, n.d., rpt. from 1962 French edition), pp. 224, 230.

Evolution of Civilization; he was a member ofthe editorial board of the monthly periodical, Current History; andhe was a frequent lecturer and consultant for such groups as theIndustrial College of the Armed Forces, the Brookings Institutionthe U.S. Naval Weapons Laboratory, the Naval College, the Smithsoman Institute, and the State Department. But Dr. Quiqley was nomere academic. He also had been closely associated with many ofthe family dynasties of the super-rich. He was, by his own boast, aninsider with a front row view of the world's money power structure.

When Dr. Quigley wrote his scholarly, 1300-page book of drvhistory, ,t was not intended for the masses. It was to be read by theintellectual elite, and to that select readership he cautiouslyexposed one of the best-kept secrets of all time. He also made itdear however, that he was a friendly apologist for this group andthat he supported its goals and purposes. Dr. Quigley said: I know of the operation of this network because I have studied it tor twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the 1960s to examine : its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to most of its amis and have, for much of my life, been close to it and to many of its instruments...In general, my chief difference of opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown.
