Now, if such a genius secret society existed and had the controlling powers and the smarts to pull it off, democratizing Iraq and removing the insurgency going on would be a piece of cake.

Bringing democracy to Iraq was never the goal. By encouraging the insurgency to start a civil war they have successfully destabalized the region. Chaos in Iraq was the real goal.
The US now has control over the Iraqi oil fields and we can sell the untapped oil reserves to the higest bidder. The Saudi's look like the most likely contender, but will likely complete the purchase not out of greed, but rather out of fear that regional Chaos will spread.
The question is how much is it worth.
Is the Iraqi oil reserve worth nine trillion dollars, which is how much our oil backed US dollar is in debt to the federal reserve?

THats thing about the stupid conspiracy. everything that happened no matter what has happened was "all part of the plan". again, all founded on the assumption that the great evil secret society never ever ever ever ever fails in achieving its goals of taking over the world.
... why havent they removed all conspiracy crap which would be counter productive? why not just delete all these websites. oohhh, right, its all part of the plan, the evil illuminati wants there to be CTers, why?
If there really was a conspiracy going on right now, an evil secret society, I guarantee you would not have the freedom to even rebut this thread. YOud already been improsoned already for som bull# charge meant to silence you.
Revelation 22:10
Then he told me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, because the time is near. 11 Let him who does wrong continue to do wrong; let him who is vile continue to be vile; let him who does right continue to do right; and let him who is holy continue to be holy."

Genesis 3:22
And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever." 23 So the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side [e] of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.

Problem is you're basing what you think a controlled society looks like on what you have seen in movies or read in books.
The control is already here, but instead of guns and intern camps we've got TV, controlled media, and a population put to sleep through fear of losing what they have.
You see those in control learned well from past 'mistakes' and now they control through more subtle methods.
Why isn't the NWO in full control? Well I'd say it is and has been for a long time, we just don't notice because they're patient and the process is a slow one, and most ppl are so overwhelmed with life they don't have time to notice.
We're like the frog in the pot of boiling water...
(And btw the NWO isn't a 'thing' it's a concept that has been slowly put into place over centuries of work by the elites)
Take a look around you, notice how 'global' the world is now? Do you think ppl will really notice a world controlled by one government? The world right now is controlled to a big extent by one gov, the US gov.
The ruling elites will always try to improve things for themselves, the more they can control us, and the worlds means to production, the more they benefit. We are their biggest threat, and they will do all they can to control us. The more freedoms we seem to gain, they more control they implement. It will never end, greed and power knows no end.
If you can't see this then you're not paying attention to our history.

I love TV.... I watch it for entertainment purposes. Not very often do I watch the news on TV.
Please explain your "subtle methods"
If its been for a long time...why is it called the "NEW" World order? Who are "they'?The United States?
Um.... whats that mean? Dead? Hot? Burnt?
Please explain how we are in control? Yes...its true we are the only true military superpower....But other countries are not yielding to our strength... Iran is thumbing their noses at as ..as well as North Korea.

^You're kinda missing the point of how society is actually controlled through the media. Not by the media, but it is used by government, by corporations, by big business, to paint a picture of how they want to people to act. And it does work, the proof is all around you, but I guess if you are caught up in the life they want us to have then you wouldn't see it, however much it's pointed out to you.
Theres still plenty of great thinkers out there, go to a university campus like MIT. You making big generalisations here, no wonder you buy into this "media control" theory. No, media is not used for control, its used mostly for entertainment. THe people want it, the people who provide it want it. again, the evidence isnt looking very good for the theory that its for control purposes.
The system sucks the imagination out of society because it dictates through the media what society should be like. Where have the great political thinkers gone, where have the great composers gone? Society is being slowly turned into an unthinking, greedy, over consuming, single minded, generic uncultured, beast of a population who think only with their emotions, bolstered and perpetuated by the use of MEDIA, in all it's forms, by those who wish to profit from us. Modern technology and ease of communication is a very two edged sword. Right now it's being used by those who's only objective is to control the population, so as to better serve their privileged lifestyles.
