Through these doors pass the
members of the
Order of Skull & Bones, a
small secret
society founded at Yale University
in 1832
that has risen to the top of
American political
and economic power. Three U.S.
Presidents,
two Chief Justices of the United
States,
over twenty U.S. Senators, and
many congressmen,
cabinet officers, judges and
state officials
are testimony to the power, privilege
and
prestige of Bones.What do these
elite secret
society members have over us
regular folks?
Who are they? What do they do?
Did members
of Skull & Bones really finance
Hitler?
Do they hold the bones of Geronimo
in their
Tomb? This book is your chance
to investigate
these questions and more.
“These secret societies are
behind it all,”
my father told me many years
ago, During
the early ‘50s he was a CIA
branch chief,
head of the East Asia intelligence
analysis
office. “The Vietnam War,”
he said soberly,
“is about drugs.” Many years
later I finally
had some understanding of what
Dad was talking
about. I wish I had asked more
questions.
Such as, was he talking about
the Order of
Skull and Bones?
It’s a symbol used by pirates,
poisons and
the Nazis but it’s also a “fraternity”
at Yale University. College kids
having fun?
Well, … ?
Fifteen juniors are tapped each
year. Around
2,500 Yale graduates have been
members, mostly
white males from wealthy Northeastern
families:
Bush, Bundy, Cheney, Dodge, Ford,
Goodyear,
Harriman, Heinz, Kellogg, Phelps,
Pillsbury,
Rockefeller, Taft, Vanderbilt,
Weyerhaeuser
and Whitney are some of the names
on its
roster. Minorities were brought
into membership
in the 1950s, and the first women
were admitted
in 1991,
The Order of Skull and Bones
is a secret
society begun at Yale by William
Huntington
Russell. His cousin Samuel Russell’s
family
enterprise was the largest American
opium
smuggler. When Russell &
Co. worked with
the world’s largest smuggler,
the Scottish
firm Jardine-Matheson, they were
known as
the Combination.
Many New England and Southern
families in
the “China Trade” sent their
sons to Yale,
and many were tapped into Skull
and Bones.
From Yale, Bonesmen went into
and were very
influential in the worlds of
commerce, communications,
diplomacy, education, intelligence,
finance,
law and politics.

共和党現大統領と民主党次期大統領候補が所属する秘密結社The
Skull and Bones （頭蓋骨と肢骨＝海賊のマーク）スコール・アンド・ボーンズ
ベトナム戦争への従軍を回避するために、下院議員であった父ブッシュのコネでテキサス州の空軍パイロットになっただけでなく、仕事をサボって知り合いの選挙応援に駆けつけていたというブッシュ、ベトナム戦争に従軍して勲章を二回も授与されているケリー候補、この二人はイエール大学で同じフラタニテー（大学の社交クラブ）に所属していた。秘密結社スコール アンド ボーンズは「primal
of American power（最初のアメリカのパワー）」である。二人ともＴＶのインタビューでその結社については秘密だ、語れないとはっきり言っている。多くの人間を政財界へ送りこんでいる。父ブッシュもメンバーだった。
スコール アンド ボーンズがあるイエール大学は、エリウ イエールが東インド会社のセントジョージ要塞（インド）の総督時代に蓄えた財産（植民地からの搾取）の一部をコネチカットにある学校に寄付し、１７１８年に、彼の苗字を付けられたのが始まりだそうです。
ナポレオンに負けたことを非難されたプロシア政府はロックやルソーの思想を取り入れた新しいシステム（「国民は何をなせばいいか、考えればいいか」を指導）をスタートさせ、それがヘーゲルに引き継がれ「国民の自由は国家に対する賛美と服従によってもたらせる」を核とする教育システムへと発展、当時のドイツで流行していた。
この考えに学んだハーリントンはイエールに戻りアルフォンソ タフト（タフト大統領の父）と一緒に作った秘密結社がスコール アンド ボーンズだった。ちなみに、ボーンズとはドイツ語で「軍隊の倶楽部」という意味らしい。
メンバーになれる人間は毎年１５人（アメリカを代表する一族出身者しか入れない）だけで、最初に１５,０００ドル（約１５０万円）とグランドファーザークロックをくれるそうだ。（金持ちだな～）。学校から離れた場所に娯楽場（tomb【墓】という呼ばれている）を持ち、表面的には魚釣りやハンティングに関する社交倶楽部ということになっているが、実際は政財界に影響力を持つ人間を養成する結社。

Skull And Bones
Oct. 5, 2003 CBSNews
Apart from presidents, Bones
has included
cabinet officers, spies, Supreme
Court justices,
statesmen and captains of industry.
Skull and Bones is an elite secret
society
at Yale University that includes
some of
the most powerful men of the
20th century.
(CBS) There are secrets that
George W. Bush
guards at least as carefully
as any entrusted
to a president.
He's forbidden to share these
secrets even
with the vice president -- secrets
he has
held ever since his days as an
undergraduate
at Yale.
In his senior year, Mr. Bush
- like his father
and his grandfather - belonged
to Skull and
Bones, an elite secret society
that includes
some of the most powerful men
of the 20th
century.
All Bonesmen, as they're called,
are forbidden
to reveal what goes on in their
inner sanctum,
the windowless building on the
Yale campus
that is called "The Tomb."
There are conspiracy theorists
who see Skull
and Bones behind everything that
goes wrong,
and occasionally even right in
the world.
