here did these alleged goals come from? Where were the published? First, it is not an urban legend. Leon Skousen was an FBI agent. Many, if not most of the goals he articulates were written by Antonio Gramsci, including destroying the family with sexual perversion. Perhaps you should familiarize yourself with Gramsci's writings before flippantly dismissing Skousen's conslusions?
Skousen also worked extensively from Carrol Quigley's writings back when almost no one had ever heard of them (the mid-1950s). Quigley's book was pulled by the publisher, and it wasn't because people weren't interested in reading it. Unless you have also read Tragedy and Hope, I would suggest you do a little homework before you so dispense such vitriol.

Thanks....I had found a copy of Leon's "list" (sent out by a conservative group in the 50's) in my Grandmother's belongings when I cleaned out her house for her move to a nursing home. It sure woke me up.

I managed to purchase a copy of Tragedy and Hope after having read a copy I checked out from the Ft. Worth library.
It is a history of various monetary systems over the last several hundred years. Then around page 950 (of over 1300 pages) it starts getting very interesting.
Quigley was Slick's "mentor" according to Clinton.

You are making an argument from authority. This is not enough for any historian or researcher who is worth his salt. I concede that Mr. Skousen was a great guy....but nobody is perfect. I asked some very simple questions about the wording of the doucment and where it came from. Can you answer them? Until I see evidence to the contrary, I think this Dr. Evil type "let's conquer the world" wording is laughable.
