The method, as they called it, though it was more-so a germ-line procedure of singular mediscientific complexity,
had been given to them by the alien colonists as a "quid pro quo". The syndicate would help them to create
a population of alien-hybrids who would hide in plain site, cloned from human ova and alien biomaterial. So there
would be a clone race immune to the black oil when the return to the planet began.
For this, the syndicate would be sequestered, granted a sort of immunity or asylum, given a place in the grander scheme. They were the Vichy government to the German final solution - collaborationists whose motivation was simple, self-directed survival.
These cloning operations were spread across the country, the cataloguing and record-keeping done through a complex intra-institutional system that connected to every branch of government, from the social security adminstration to the department of defense.
The operation under the working title, "Purity Control" had been launched in 1948. It's original conception, the brain-child of German scientists given immunity themselves from war crimes and allowed to continue the eugenics experiments that were Hitler's dark legacy.
The Syndicate had begun as a subset of a shadow intelligence agency whose original orders were to create plausible denial and an effective cover-up of "Purity Control." But through 50 years, numerous US and UN administraions, the principals began to wrest control, accumulating power and influence across international borders. Such that by 1990, the operation ceased to have a member accountable to any one government and whose only orders will be taken from a man named Strughold, a German industrialist who had fled his homeland to Northern Africa.
These men, whose knowledge and access provided control of a foreseeable future, had in spite of this, everything to lose. Their secret work, the cloning preperations and the cataloguing constituted their greatest vulnerability--exposure. Their detection would insure not just their own demise but a far-reaching dissolution of social and religious order across the globe.
To protect against this, the syndicate exmploy methods of disinformation, using covert government programs that had been regrettably discovered as a kind of smoke-screen. They dodge or blind where the transgressions of congress-accountable agencies serve to hide their own more odious undertaking. They had even at times used a UFO phenomena to create a hysteria that science and the intelligencia denounced so completely as to make belief in believers seem ridiculous and completely discreditable.
They had also, in a crisis, used a tool of the colonists themselves - alien bounty hunters who policed the cloning operations and enforced rule on the count-down to colonization - a double-edged sword whose cold-blooded tactics had helped to stem a leak or threat, but who also kept watch on the syndicate - a threat in itself as the syndicate had something to hide that not even the colonists knew of: a vaccine against the black oil, an innoculant against the substance in which the alien life-force was held - in fact, the very medium of the life-force itself.
To guard this secret was perhaps even more critical than the truth of the existence of alien life and of colonization.
If the syndicate's own secret vaccine were discovered, a vaccine that would make themselves immune from the effects of the black-oil, they would certainly be destroyed and the time-table for colonization stepped up. They would protect this secret with their lives, they would kill to protect it as a symbol of the only hope they had of avoiding enslavement when the planet was overtaken.
That they had been able to, over decades, conduct their work on the vaccine undetected, was a result of a code among the syndicate members to put honor and the future above personal politics but, now this code was beginning to break down. An insipient scramble for power beginning to develop, a threat from within that doubled the threat from without: Agents Mulder and Scully and the X-Files.
