cabalism

n. doctrines of the cabala (mystical interpretation of the Scriptures developed by rabbis, most popular in the 12th and 13th centuries)

A cabal is a number of persons united in some close design, usually to promote their private views and interests in a church, state, or other community by . Cabals are sometimes secret organizations composed of a few designing persons, and at other times are manifestations of emergent behavior in society or governance on the part of a community of persons who have well established public affiliation or kinship. The term can also be used to refer to the designs of such persons or to the practical consequences of their emergent behavior, and also holds a general meaning of intrigue and conspiracy. Its usage carries strong connotations of shadowy corners, back rooms and insidious influence; a cabal is more evil and selective than, say, a faction, which is simply selfish. Because of this negative connotation, few organizations use the term to refer to themselves or their internal subdivisions. Among the exceptions is Discordianism, in which the term is used to refer to an identifiable group within the Discordian tradition.

CABAL redirects here, for the type of secret society please see Cabal The Computer Assisted Biologically Augmented Lifeform (CABAL) was a sinister and highly advanced artificial intelligence in the Tiberian Series of Command & Conquer video games, which, as its name implies, was augmented by numerous human beings who were kept artificially alive within stasis tubes and whose brains had been integrally linked to, and synchronized with, the AI's system core. CABAL was used by the Brotherhood of Nod as their tactical and logistical console throughout the Second Tiberium War, and it also acted as the networked command hub for the Brotherhood's Tiberium-based cyborg programme. Although essentially gender-neutral, as it was primarily an artificial entity, CABAL was always portrayed as male in both virtual appearance and voice.
