( 1970s: )     1974
US President Richard Nixon accepts his defeat at the hands of the Cabal and announces his resignation on live TV. Part of the deal was that his successor, Gerald Ford would pardon him, preventing an investigation into what happened.
The ousting of Richard Nixon was an important victory for the cabal and cemented George H. W. Bush in his de facto leadership role.

In 1974 Richard Nixon resigned, an important victory for the cabal, since the Watergate Coup was masterminded by George H. W. Bush. This success established his de facto leadership role of the group.

The Watergate coup

Full article: Watergate coup

The Watergate burglars

After the Watergate coup successfully unseated Richard Nixon, he was replaced by the Cabal's more compliant man, Gerald Ford. In October 1974, senator James Abourezk proposed an amendment to prohibit illegal CIA activity, but was overwhelmingly defeated. This, combined with the successful takeover of leadership of the Cabal by George H. W. Bush was to set the scene for Bush's later "massive criminal romp".

 

Events

Operation Paperclip	8 May 1945	1990	A transfer of top German scientists to USA.
Cold War	1947	26 September 1991	The official narrative had 2 diametrically opposed systems locked in combat with one another since soon after WW2. Each of the "superpowers" and its team of allies needed to outdo each other by creating ever more and deadlier weapons, creating a kind of perpetual war for perpetual peace, with the warring parties engaging mainly in covert/proxy wars. Deep state interests blossomed in the climate of fear and paranoia.
Operation Demagnetize	1948	1980	"The institutional hardening of Gladio", an expansion of Gladio in the late 1940s, early 1950s.
Lockheed/Bribery scandals	1950	1976	A series of bribes made by officials of the U.S. aerospace company Lockheed from the late 1950s to the 1970s in the process of negotiating the sale of aircraft.
Vietnam War	December 1956	30 April 1975	The Vietnam War was a proxy war lead by US that occurred in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from December 1956 to the fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975. Millions of people were killed, mostly Vietnamese. JFK was assassinated soon after declaring his intent to withdraw US troops. The war helped the CIA to refine its methods of illegal drug trafficking, torture and the like.
Operation Snow White	1960	1979	Religious cult breaks into 100s of international government buildings to remove their own names, is not banned.
Rhodesian Bush War	July 1964	December 1979
The Troubles	1966	1998	The sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland which flared into serious sustained violence through the summer of 1969
Markovic affair	1968	12 January 1976	When a sexual blackmailer was killed in 196, it soon turned out he had pictures of very prominent persons, including future President Georges Pompidou and his wife Claude.
Operation Condor	1968	1989	US-backed campaign of assassination and terrorisation carried out in South America.
Great Oil Sniffer Hoax	1969	1979	A fraudulent scheme purporting to be able to detect oil by a new technology. Details remain rather obscure.

The Disappeared of the Yonne	1970	1980	Over three decades, some 30 young women went missing while in the care of the social services in the Yonne region of France.
FBI/Activities 1971-2001	1971	2001	FBI activities between the official end of COINTELPRO and 911
Watergate coup	17 June 1972	9 August 1974	This is framed by the official narrative as a simple case of political corruption, one which proves that "the system works", since the powerful perpetrator was caught - if not actually brought to justice, since outgoing president Nixon was immediately pardoned by his successor, Gerald Ford. In fact it may well have been the outworking of a deeper political power struggle at work.
Guillaume affair	1973	1974	Günter Guillaume, a personal assistant of Willy Brandt was exposed as an East German spy, and led to Brandt's resignation as West German Chancellor.
"1973 Oil crisis"	October 1973	March 1974	A huge rise in the price of oil, very probably created by attendees of the 1973 Bilderberg.
