Committee of 300
File:Deguello Report (as printed in the Encyclopedia of White Power).pdf
The Committee of 300, also referred to as the Olympians or the Olympian Council, is an alleged secret governing body composed of the world's most powerful individuals — drawn from royalty, banking dynasties, intelligence communities, and multinational corporations. According to its primary chronicler, Dr. John Coleman, a former British Intelligence officer, this body operates above and behind all national governments, international institutions, and elected officials, functioning as the true hidden hand of global governance. While mainstream academia and media dismiss these claims, the Committee of 300 remains one of the most extensively documented and widely discussed concepts within New World Order research circles.
Origins of the Claim
The concept of the Committee of 300 was most systematically developed and popularised by Dr. John Coleman, who claimed to have accessed classified materials during his career in MI6. Coleman first introduced the concept in a 1991 essay before expanding it into a full-length book: The Conspirators' Hierarchy: The Story of the Committee of 300, now in multiple editions.
Coleman alleged that the Committee had roots stretching back to the British East India Company in the 17th and 18th centuries, which he described as the world's first true supranational corporate power — one that effectively governed entire nations through economic and military force while remaining accountable to no public body. He argued that as the East India Company's formal power declined, its networks, wealth, and methods were absorbed into a less visible but more durable structure of elite coordination.
According to Coleman, the Committee formalised its operations sometime in the 19th century and has operated in continuous form ever since, though never acknowledging its own existence publicly. The name "Committee of 300" refers to its alleged fixed membership of exactly 300 individuals drawn from the upper strata of Western civilisation and beyond.
Some researchers suggest the number 300 itself carries symbolic resonance, evoking the Spartan elite at Thermopylae — a self-styled vanguard prepared to hold a civilisational chokepoint against the masses.
Dr. John Coleman's Book

File:The Conspirators Hierarchy - The Story of the Committee of 300 - John Coleman.pdf is the definitive text on this subject, first published in 1991 and expanded in subsequent editions. Dr. Coleman presents the work as a synthesis of intelligence documents, historical research, and first-hand knowledge from his alleged career in British Intelligence.
The Committee as "Olympians"
Coleman claims that the Committee's own members refer to themselves as Olympians — a deliberate allusion to the gods of ancient Greece who looked down upon and governed humanity from Mount Olympus. This self-designation, according to Coleman, reflects the group's world view: that they are a superior class of beings entitled — even obligated — to manage the affairs of the lesser masses. This perceived divine right to rule underpins all of their alleged activities, from geopolitical engineering to population management.
The 21 Goals of the Committee of 300
One of the most cited and discussed elements of Coleman's book is his enumeration of what he describes as the 21 Goals of the Committee of 300. These are presented not as speculative projections but as documented strategic objectives derived from his intelligence sources. Key goals include:
- A One-World Government — the establishment of a single global government with a unified church and monetary system under the Committee's direction, eliminating all national sovereignty.
- The utter destruction of all national identity and national pride — the systematic dismantling of the cultural, historical, and civic bonds that give populations a coherent sense of collective identity, leaving them without the foundations for organised resistance.
- The destruction of religion and more especially the Christian religion — with the one exception of the Committee's own created church body. All competing theological frameworks are to be replaced with a single, Committee-sanctioned spiritual system subordinate to the One World Government.
- Control via "technotronics" — Coleman specifically uses the term coined by Zbigniew Brzezinski to describe a system of total social control achieved through electronic and psychological manipulation of the population — an early formulation of what is now discussed as Brain-Computer Interface technology, mass surveillance, and Artificial Intelligence-driven behavioural management.
- The end of all industrialisation — the deliberate destruction of the industrial base of Western nations, replaced by a post-industrial zero-growth society in which controlled scarcity maintains dependency. US industries that remain will be exported to countries with abundant cheap labour. This connects directly to the Depopulation Agenda and to the stated positions of the Club of Rome.
- Legalisation of drugs and pornography — the deliberate promotion of drug use and pornography to pacify and destabilise populations, generating both profit and social dysfunction that undermines organised resistance and degrades cultural and moral cohesion.
- Depopulation of large cities — with the Pol Pot regime in Cambodia cited by Coleman as a trial run for this policy. More broadly, this goal encompasses the reduction of global population to a level deemed "sustainable" by the Committee, variously cited at one to two billion people. This connects directly to the Depopulation Agenda and the Club of Rome.
- Suppression of all scientific development except for those deemed beneficial by the Committee. Especially targeted is nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, and fusion research in particular, which would undermine the "limited natural resources" justification used to advance depopulation policy. The control and selective suppression of technological knowledge is intended to prevent any decentralisation of power or energy independence.
- Cause by means of limited wars in advanced countries, and by means of starvation and diseases in Third World countries, the death of three billion people — referred to by the Committee as "useless eaters". The Global 2000 Report, commissioned from Cyrus Vance, is cited by Coleman as the documented operational plan for achieving this objective.
- To weaken the moral fibre of the nation and demoralise workers in the labour class by creating mass unemployment. The youth of the land are to be encouraged via rock music and drugs to rebel against the status quo, undermining and eventually destroying the family unit. Coleman states that the Committee commissioned the Tavistock Institute to prepare the blueprint, which became known as "The Aquarian Conspiracy".
- To keep people everywhere from deciding their own destinies by means of one created crisis after another and then "managing" such crises. This will confuse and demoralise the population to the point of mass apathy. FEMA is cited as the crisis management agency already in place in the United States to serve this function — an early formulation of what researchers now identify as Mind Control through engineered chaos and manufactured dependency.
- To introduce new cults and continue to boost those already functioning — including Tavistock-created rock music movements beginning with The Beatles — and to continue to build up the cult of Christian fundamentalism in order to strengthen the Zionist state of Israel. Religious and cultural movements are to be used as instruments of social division and misdirection.
- To press for the spread of religious cults such as the Muslim Brotherhood and Muslim fundamentalism, and to carry out destabilisation operations using controlled extremist movements as cut-outs and instruments of geopolitical disruption.
- To export "religious liberation" ideas around the world so as to undermine all existing religions, but more especially the Christian religion. This will pave the way for a One World Religion based on the Committee's own theological construct, as referenced in New World Order research.
- To cause a total collapse of the world's economies and engender total political chaos — generating the conditions under which a One World Government will be accepted by a desperate population as the only available solution. The elimination of physical currency and the implementation of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) is seen by later researchers as a contemporary expression of this goal.
- To take control of all foreign and domestic policies of the United States so that no future government can operate independently of the Committee's agenda. This involves the penetration of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, as well as control of intelligence agencies such as the CIA and NSA.
- To give the fullest support to supranational institutions such as the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Bank of International Settlements (BIS), the World Court, and the like — with the goal of abolishing all independent sovereign nations in favour of a unified global management system. This connects to the New World Order framework and the stated objectives of the World Economic Forum.
- To penetrate and subvert all governments, and to work from within to destroy the sovereign integrity of nations represented by them. Intelligence agencies, political parties, academic institutions, and media organisations are all described as vectors for this subversion.
- To organise a world-wide terrorism apparatus and negotiate with terrorists whenever terrorist activities serve a higher political purpose, as in the case of the Aldo Moro murder. This goal connects to documented patterns of Psychological Operations, state-sponsored covert action, and the use of controlled opposition movements.
- To take control of education in America with the intent and purpose of utterly and completely destroying it. By 1993, according to Coleman, the full force of the Committee's educational destruction program was already in evidence: the deterioration of educational standards, the rewriting of history, and the elimination of critical thinking were cited as deliberate policy outcomes.
- To penetrate the Catholic Church in order to bring about an acceptable "one world religion" and place it under the Committee's umbrella with all other religions, thereby achieving total spiritual control of humanity. This is described as the culminating goal — the spiritual dimension of the One World Government — and connects to broader research into transhumanist and occult dimensions of elite global governance.
Coleman presents these not as isolated policies but as interlocking components of a single long-range strategic plan, executable only by a coordinating body operating across generations.
The Club of Rome as Policy Arm
Coleman devotes considerable attention to the Club of Rome, which he characterises not as a genuine environmental research body but as a deliberate instrument of the Committee of 300, tasked with developing and promulgating the intellectual justification for depopulation and deindustrialisation. He argues that the Club of Rome's landmark 1972 report The Limits to Growth was not independent academic research but a Committee-commissioned project designed to condition public and governmental opinion toward accepting radical population reduction and the dismantling of industrial economies.
Coleman further alleges that the Club of Rome invented the concept of man-made global warming as a strategic narrative — not because the science was settled, but because a manufactured global environmental crisis would provide the ideological basis for transferring national sovereignty to supranational governance bodies. In this framing, climate policy becomes an instrument of the New World Order agenda rather than a genuine response to environmental data.
The RIIA, CFR, and Bilderberg as Instruments

Coleman describes a tiered architecture of implementation bodies through which the Committee executes its agenda:
- The Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA), also known as Chatham House, is described as the Committee's primary Anglo-American policy drafting body — the intellectual engine that produces the frameworks later adopted by governments as official policy
- The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is characterised as the RIIA's American counterpart, described as the mechanism through which Committee-aligned policy is introduced into the US State Department, academic institutions, and major media organisations
- The Bilderberg Group functions as an annual executive coordination forum where Committee-aligned leaders from Europe and North America align their positions on major policy matters, outside of any democratic accountability
- The Club of Rome serves as the public-facing intellectual and scientific legitimisation body, providing the research outputs that justify the Committee's agenda to a broader, educated audience
In Coleman's framework, these organisations do not simply share overlapping memberships by coincidence — they are purpose-built instruments, each assigned a specific function within the Committee's overall operational structure.
The Aldo Moro Case
Among the most striking specific case histories in Coleman's book is his account of the alleged murder of Aldo Moro, the Italian Prime Minister kidnapped and killed in 1978 — officially attributed to the Red Brigades terrorist organisation. Coleman claims that Moro was in fact targeted by the Committee of 300 because he had refused to follow Committee directives regarding Italian political and economic policy. According to Coleman, Moro received a direct warning before his murder from a senior US official (whom Coleman identifies as Henry Kissinger) that he would "pay with his life" if he continued to pursue an independent political course.
Coleman presents this case as an illustration of the ultimate sanction available to the Committee — the elimination of national leaders who refuse to comply with the agenda. He argues that the Red Brigades were, in this instance, used as a cutout — a controlled or manipulated asset serving the Committee's purposes while maintaining plausible deniability. Similar patterns, Coleman suggests, can be identified across multiple political assassinations of the 20th century.
Tavistock Institute and Mass Psychology
A recurring theme in Coleman's analysis is the role of the Tavistock Institute — a British psychological research body — as the Committee's primary instrument for the study and application of mass mind control techniques. Coleman claims that Tavistock, funded through Committee-connected foundations, pioneered the psychological methodologies used to shape public opinion, manufacture consent, and identify the breaking points of social resistance. He alleges that Tavistock's techniques underpin much of modern advertising, political messaging, and social engineering programs, and that its research has been directly applied in programmes of population psychological management.

Alleged Structure and Membership
Coleman and subsequent researchers describe the Committee of 300 as a self-perpetuating oligarchy, with membership passed through elite bloodlines and co-opted into through demonstrated loyalty and usefulness to the agenda. The Committee allegedly meets in private, leaves no public record, and operates through a constellation of front organisations and subordinate bodies.
Alleged categories of membership include:
- Royal families — particularly the British Royal Family and various European royal houses, described as figureheads providing legitimacy and continuity across centuries
- Banking dynasties — including the Rothschild family, the Rockefeller family, and other major international banking interests who allegedly control monetary policy at a global level
- Intelligence chiefs — senior figures within agencies such as the CIA, MI6, and NSA, who are said to provide the coercive and surveillance capabilities required to enforce the agenda
- Corporate executives — leaders of major pharmaceutical, energy, media, and technology corporations, who implement policy through economic leverage
- Academic and policy influencers — heads of major think tanks, university departments, and international policy bodies, including Tavistock Institute-connected figures
Specific names cited in various research include the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Kissingers, and members of prominent European aristocratic families. Coleman also claimed that certain popes and Vatican officials have held standing within or advisory relationships to the body, given the Catholic Church's historical reach into political governance.
The Committee is said to operate through a tiered structure, with the 300 core members directing a wider network of tens of thousands of initiates, functionaries, and witting or unwitting participants across every sector of society.
Relationship to Other Bodies
A key element of Coleman's analysis is that the Committee of 300 does not operate in isolation but uses a web of subordinate organisations as instruments of implementation:
- The Bilderberg Group — described as an annual steering conference for Committee-aligned elites, allowing coordination of policy between North American and European power centres without formal public accountability
- The Club of Rome — an alleged think tank whose depopulation and sustainability agenda is said to reflect Committee objectives. Coleman specifically cited the Club of Rome's 1972 Limits to Growth report as a Committee-directed exercise in conditioning public opinion toward population reduction
- The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) — described as the Committee's primary instrument for shaping American foreign policy and media narratives
- The Tavistock Institute — described as the Committee's primary social psychology and mass mind control research body
- The World Economic Forum — while formed after Coleman's original analysis, later researchers have connected the WEF's Agenda 2030 framework and Klaus Schwab's Young Global Leaders Program to the same longstanding elite coordination network
- The Illuminati — some researchers place the Committee of 300 as either a continuation of, or a parallel structure to, the Bavarian Illuminati founded by Adam Weishaupt in 1776, sharing common goals and overlapping membership families
According to this framework, no single one of these organisations is the Committee of 300 — they are all instruments of it, each serving a different strategic function while remaining subordinate to the overarching body.
Objectives
Coleman outlines an extensive set of alleged long-term objectives attributed to the Committee of 300. These are not described as short-term political goals but as multi-generational strategic imperatives, some of which have been in progress for over a century:
Population Reduction
One of the most prominently cited objectives is the radical reduction of global population, with figures of 1–2 billion people cited as the Committee's target sustainable population. This connects directly to the Depopulation Agenda as described through the Club of Rome, the Optimum Population Trust, and various UN-adjacent policy bodies. Some researchers link this goal to Agenda 2030 and to certain interpretations of vaccine programs and GMO food policy.
One-World Government
The Committee is alleged to seek the dissolution of national sovereignty in favour of a single global governance structure — a technocratic world government operating above the authority of any nation-state. This aligns with the broader New World Order framework and with stated positions of bodies like the World Economic Forum and the United Nations.
Economic Domination
Control of the global financial system — including central banking, debt instruments, and resource allocation — is described as foundational to the Committee's power. Researchers connect this to the Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) agenda as a contemporary tool for implementing total financial surveillance and control.
Cultural Destruction
Coleman alleged that the Committee has deliberately funded and promoted the breakdown of traditional family structures, religious faith, and national identity — creating populations more susceptible to centralised control. He cited the promotion of drug culture, pornography, and nihilistic media as deliberate psychological operations, many of them coordinated through Tavistock Institute-derived methodologies.
Control of Science and Technology
The Committee is said to control the direction of scientific research, suppressing technologies that would decentralise power (such as Free Energy technologies) while advancing technologies that enable surveillance and control, including Brain-Computer Interface development, Artificial Intelligence, and biotech.
Alleged Membership List (2010)

Note: The following list is reproduced as cited in alternative research sources, including compilations circulated by outlets such as Humans Are Free and Stillness in the Storm. It is presented here as alleged membership and has not been independently verified. The list is described as accurate as of approximately 2010 and may have changed significantly since that time.
This list was compiled circa 2010 and circulated widely in New World Order research communities. It purports to identify the approximately 300 individuals alleged to constitute the membership of the Committee at that time, drawn from royal families, central banking, intelligence, international policy bodies, major corporations, and the Vatican.
Some researchers describe a hierarchical structure above the Committee of 300 itself. According to these accounts, the 300 members report to a Council of 33 — composed of 33 of the most senior and influential members — which in turn answers to a Crown Council of 13, said to be composed of the most powerful bloodline families on Earth. At the apex of this structure, some researchers identify the head of the Rothschild Family as holding the supreme position, referred to in certain accounts as The Pindar — a title allegedly denoting the paramount ruler of the global control hierarchy.

Criticism and Credibility
File:Notes and Queries - Series 10 - Volume 8.djvu
Mainstream historians, political scientists, and journalists broadly dismiss Coleman's claims as lacking verifiable documentation and relying on unfalsifiable assertions. Critics argue that:
- No confirmed membership list has ever been independently verified
- The alleged operations of the Committee are indistinguishable from normal elite coordination in a capitalist global order
- Coleman's MI6 background has not been independently confirmed
- Some of the book's claims contain historical inaccuracies or rely on secondary conspiracy literature
Supporters and researchers in the Targeted Individuals and New World Order investigation communities counter that:
- The dismissal of such claims is itself predicted by the model — elite control of media ensures suppression of such narratives
- Many of Coleman's specific predictions about globalisation, surveillance capitalism, and biosurveillance have proven remarkably accurate in hindsight
- The documented activities of the Bilderberg Group, Council on Foreign Relations, and Club of Rome demonstrate that elite coordination does occur at a level well beyond what is publicly acknowledged
- Whistleblowers from intelligence backgrounds have consistently corroborated elements of Coleman's framework, even where they diverged on specifics
- The Aldo Moro case and other documented political assassinations lend circumstantial weight to claims about the Committee's enforcement capabilities
The debate ultimately turns on questions of evidence standards, institutional trust, and the degree to which documented elite coordination implies a singular coordinating authority operating above and behind all visible institutions.
