This sounds like fun... I would join an Illuminati game if you started one!
This actually reminds me of a game I once participated in - can't remember what it was called, but I think it was one of Puke's - in which everyone had a secret target and the winner of the game was the player whose target was wiped out first, no matter who did it!

I use to have an Illuminati Bumber sticker that said:
"Assasins do it from behind!"

Unknown Enemy hosted a PBW game (Paranoia) which had this objective. Randawl... erh, I'm not 100% sure about the exact spelling of his nickname... well, the Aussie who doesn't like being called Randy won that one. There were probably other such games, of course.

I've never played in a game like that. Having alternative objectives sounds interesting.

Another thought I just had...
Maybe rather than a single grand objective, a list of lesser objectives might be interesting:

Capture X,
Locate Y,
Develop Z,
etc
