For oligarchs that have been around for hundreds of years, they are certainly inept.
They let the American colonies escape.
Then they either allowed the destruction of Slavery or failed to achieve it without massive destruction of wealth.
Then, they mucked up most of Europe in WWI, while allowing the rise of the Bolsheviks and the destruction of the Russian dynasty and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, while destroying the Ottoman empire (a good thing, probably accidental)
Next, they totally screwed up China and allowed the rise of the Japanese.
After that they lost control of most of Eastern Europe after WWII,lost most of the British Empire, and allowed China to become a new world power.
None of which was to the benefit of the European elites.
They ought to hire me. With all the power that you suggest, I could do a lot better job.
I hear ya, it sounds crazy. But I’ve been looking into this for decades and it the only thing that makes sense. Daniel Estulin gives some good interviews and he is one of the leading researchers into this.
Another guy that is one of my favorites is Jay Dyer. Listen to this interview on Quigley’s “Tragedy and Hope.”
