I think you might be on to something there,.. If there was a group that could pull something like that off they would have to have a lot of money, which leads me to believe that if so, it would most likely be somehow associated with the rothschilds or whoever that family is that has all the money yet stays out of the lime light,.. Most other families that are that rich, everyone knows about, who are these people that are the top of the 1%? Why are they not known by the world, do they have something to hide?

Raising this question is not about raising conspiracy theory, its about criticizing how ridiculous the evidence that we have been provided is and the essence of inquiry would be to figure out who did it,..

And, CryptoChick*  Have you ever seen the movie "Eyes wide shut"? Its about the illuminati,..

I got a little involved and understand the freemasons ,.. I could easily see how a sect of what they do could get taken out of control and to extreme levels, the masons do rituals and have secrets and further it is all based around king solomons temple which is part of the old testimate, those guys believe in some magical shit, there are different levels of knowing which it takes time to step into which solidifies members rank in and authority, I could easily see how what the masons were doing could have turned into a sect that all we know of them and call them is illuminati,.. in my opinion just the way that humans are could almost ensure that there is an underground group of very wealthy individuals that act together,.. Just as in CryptoCurrencies,..
