Global War and Dying Democracy: The Revolution of the Elites!

  • The world is run by a secret Illuminati cabal, the shadow government. The leaders you see in public, on TV and in newspapers are largely puppets taking instruction from this hidden power. This secret cabal controls most of the MSM, industrial corporations, military industrial complex, central banks and Big Pharma. They don’t have national loyalty. They are globalist, internationalist. They are hell bent on a global police fascist state.
     
  • Democracy is just an illusion to manipulate the sheeple to allow them to think they are in control. The best kind of slaves are those who do not know they are slaves. In ancient times, slaves were made to build the Great Giza Pyramid. In the modern context, we are all building the Great Domestic Pyramid (GDP). The sheeple are caught up in the rat race, the system of the world this cabal has built.
     
  • This ruling elite pit country against country, religion against religion, race against race via conflicts, wars and propaganda. Their method is Order Out of Chaos, the Hegelian Dialectic. They believe that to get the sheeple to ‘choose’ the selected pre-determined path, they need to engineer conflict between either extremes. Thus, via destruction a 3rd path, middle way is chosen.
     
  • Am I making all these up? Watch the above video. Don’t take my word for it. Listen to all the renown world figures and what they say. The ruling elites are engineering their New World Order, a nightmarish global police state. Everyone will be micro-chipped with ’666′.

    Part 4: Forging a “New World Order” Under a One World Government
     
    Transnational Totalitarianism 
    Global trends in political economy suggest that “democracy” as we know it, is a fading concept, where even Western industrialized nations are retreating from the system. Arguably, through party politics and financial-corporate interests, democracy is something of a façade as it is. However, we are entering into an era in which even the institutions and image of democracy are in retreat, and the slide into totalitarianism seems inevitable.
      …..
    The nature of totalitarianism is such that it is, “by nature (or rather by definition), a global project that cannot be fully accomplished in just one community or one country. Being fuelled by the need to suppress any alternative orders and ideas, it has no natural limits and is bound to aim at totally dominating everything and everyone.” David Lyon explained in Theorizing Surveillance, that, “The ultimate feature of the totalitarian domination is the absence of exit, which can be achieved temporarily by closing borders, but permanently only by a truly global reach that would render the very notion of exit meaningless. This in itself justifies questions about the totalitarian potential of globalization.” The author raises the important question, “Is abolition of borders intrinsically (morally) good, because they symbolize barriers that needlessly separate and exclude people, or are they potential lines of resistance, refuge and difference that may save us from the totalitarian abyss?” Further, “if globalization undermines the tested, state-based models of democracy, the world may be vulnerable to a global totalitarian etatization.”[2]
      …
    Global War
    Further, the prospects of war are increasing with the deepening of the economic crisis. It must be noted that historically, as empires are in decline, international violence increases. The scope of a global depression and the undertaking of restructuring the entire global political economy may also require and produce a global war to serve as a catalyst for formation of the New World Order.
                 
    The National Intelligence Council document, Global Trends 2025, stated that there is a likely increase in the risk of a nuclear war, or in the very least, the use of a nuclear weapon by 2025, as, “Ongoing low-intensity clashes between India and Pakistan continue to raise the specter that such events could escalate to a broader conflict between those nuclear powers.”[4]
                 
    The report also predicts a resurgence of mercantilist foreign policies of the great powers in competition for resources, which “could lead to interstate conflicts if government leaders deem assured access to energy resources to be essential to maintaining domestic stability and the survival of their regime.” In particular, “Central Asia has become an area of intense international competition for access to energy.”[5]
      ….
    In 2007, the British Defense Ministry released a report in which they analyzed future trends in the world. Among many of the things predicted within 30 years are: “Information chips implanted in the brain. Electromagnetic pulse weapons. The middle classes becoming revolutionary, taking on the role of Marx’s proletariat. The population of countries in the Middle East increasing by 132%, while Europe’s drops as fertility falls. ‘Flashmobs’ – groups rapidly mobilised by criminal gangs or terrorists groups.” 
                 
    It further reported that, “The development of neutron weapons which destroy living organisms but not buildings ‘might make a weapon of choice for extreme ethnic cleansing in an increasingly populated world’. The use of unmanned weapons platforms would enable the ‘application of lethal force without human intervention, raising consequential legal and ethical issues’. The ‘explicit use’ of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear weapons and devices delivered by unmanned vehicles or missiles.” Further, “an implantable ‘information chip’ could be wired directly to the brain. A growing pervasiveness of information communications technology will enable states, terrorists or criminals, to mobilise ‘flashmobs’, challenging security forces to match this potential agility coupled with an ability to concentrate forces quickly in a small area.”
      …..
    RAND corporation, a Pentagon-linked powerhouse think tank, connected to the Blderberg Group, Trilateral Commission and Council on Foreign Relations, came up with a solution to the financial crisis in October of 2008: for the United States to start a major war. Chinese media reported that RAND “presented a shocking proposal to the Pentagon in which it lobbied for a war to be started with a major foreign power in an attempt to stimulate the American economy and prevent a recession.” Further, “the target country would have to be a major influential power,” and Chinese media “speculated that the target of the new war would probably be China or Russia, but that it could also be Iran or another middle eastern country.”[8]
      …
    The Imperial Project
    War should not be understood as a recent phenomenon in regards to accelerating capitalism through expansion and transition, as this has been a continual theme throughout the history of capitalism. The notion of “surplus imperialism” is what describes the function and role of war and militarism within capitalism. The concept is built around the function of “constant war.”
                 
    Ellen Wood explains the notion of ‘surplus imperialism,’ in that, “Boundless domination of a global economy, and of the multiple states that administer it, requires military action without end, in purpose or time.”[13] Further, “Imperial dominance in a global capitalist economy requires a delicate and contradictory balance between suppressing competition and maintaining conditions in competing economies that generate markets and profit. This is one of the most fundamental contradictions of the new world order.”[14]
      ..
    The Revolution of the New World Order
    The new system being formed is not one based upon any notion of competition or “free markets” or “socialist morality”, but is, instead a system based upon consolidation of power and wealth; thus, the fewer, the better; one government, one central bank, one army, one currency, one authority, one ruler. This is a much more “efficient” and “controllable” system, and thus requires a much smaller population or class to run it, as well as a much smaller population to serve it. Also, with such a system, a smaller global population would be ideal for the rulers, for it limits their risk, in terms of revolt, uprising, and revolution, and created a more malleable and manageable population. In this new capitalist system, the end goal is not profit, but power. In a sense, this is how the whole capitalist system has functioned, as profit has always acted as a means and lever to achieve power. Power itself, was the goal, profit was merely the means of achieving such a goal.
                 
    Shortly following the origins of the capitalist system, central banking emerged. It was through the central banking system that the most powerful figures and individuals in the world were able to consolidate power, controlling both industry and governments. Through central banks, these figures would collapse economies, destroying industry and thus, profits; bankrupt countries and collapse their political structures, destroying a base for the exercise of power; but in doing so, they would consolidate their authority over these governments and industry, wiping out competition and eliminating dissent. It is these individuals who have played the greatest roles in shaping and reshaping the capitalist system, and are the main figures in the current reorganization of world order.
      …
    Theoretical Foundations of Global Revolution
    ….
    Currently, the transnational elite are very aware of the increasing social tensions among the worlds majority. As the crisis deepens, tensions will rise, and the chances of revolt and revolution from below greatly increase. Governments everywhere, particularly in the Western industrialized nations are building massive police states to monitor and control populations, and are actively preparing for martial law and military rule in the event of such a situation unfolding. 
            
    However, the transnational elite are undertaking their own revolution from above. This revolution is encompassing the restructuring of the global political economy through their orchestrated economic crisis.
      ….
    I will refer to this group as the Global Cartel. This Cartel has usurped global authority and power through an incremental, multi-century spanning war of position. The Peace of Westphalia, signed in 1648, constituting two separate treaties, created the notion of the nation state and state sovereignty within Western Europe. Feudalism dominated Europe from the medieval period through the 16th century, and was slowly replaced by the emergence of Capitalism. Major European empires had, since the 15th century, been pursuing empire building, such as with the trans-Atlantic slave trade and expansion into the Americas. This formed the first truly global economy. The empires worked under and in service to the monarchies that oversaw them. 
                 
    It was with the founding of the Bank of England in 1694 that a European group of bankers overtook one of the major European empires. Great Britain then became the dominant empire, experiencing the Industrial Revolution prior to any other nation, and became a global hegemon. With the French Revolution, these European bankers took over another major empire through the establishment of the Bank of France, and then financed and profited off of all sides of every major war, and expanded imperial reach.
                 
    Through the expansion of the central banking system, a highly concentrated group of European bankers were able to overtake the major nations of the world. The entire history of the United States is the story of a Republic’s struggle and battle against a central bank. Finally, the bankers usurped monetary authority with the establishment of the Federal Reserve, and built up and created the American empire.
                 
    It was in the 20th century that the war of position of the cartel is most apparent. As the world globalized, so too did the war of position. The major banking dynasties founded powerful philanthropies, such as the Carnegie Endowment and the Rockefeller and Ford Foundations. These organizations shaped civil society in the United States and set their sights internationally in scope. Through the establishment of think tanks like the Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA) in Britain and the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) in the United States, this cartel was able to bring in and centralize the intellectual, academic, strategic, military, economic and political establishments under the cartel’s influence. This was expanded by the cartel through organizations such as the Bilderberg Group and the Trilateral Commission.
      …
    Thus, it was of absolute necessity for the cartel to undertake their ultimate aim of world domination and world government through a war of position, as no person would fight for, surrender a nation to, or be motivated to help any banker achieve their own selfish goals. Rather, they had to slowly usurp power incrementally; control money, buy politicians, own economies, build empires, engineer wars, mold civil society, control their opposition, overtake educational institutions and ultimately, control thought. 
     
    Conclusion
    As George Orwell wrote, “Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.”
                 
    The more people that think for themselves; the worse it is for the cartel. People, free thinking individuals, are the greatest threat to this cartel and their war of position. That is why the answer and solution to exposing the supra-hegemonic war of position, challenging and triumphing over the New World Order, lies in the free-thinking individual. The challenge is global and globalized; the solution is local and localized. The problem is conformity and controlled thought; the answer is individuality and free thought.
      …
     We may not reach a new age of thinking and peace before we enter into a new age of oppression and war. In fact, the former may not be possible without the latter. People must awake from their slumber; their immersion in consumerist society and pop culture distractions, and awake to both the malevolence of world systems and the wonder of life and its potential. Through crisis, comes control; through control, comes power; through power, comes resistance; through resistance, comes thinking; through thinking, comes potential; through potential, comes peace. 
                 
    We may very well be entering into the most oppressive and destructive order the world has yet seen, but from its ruins and ashes, which are as inevitable as the tides and as sure as the sun rises, we may see the rise of a truly peaceful world order; in which we see the triumphs of individualism merge with the interests of the majority; a people’s world order of peace for all. We must maintain, as Antonio Gramsci once wrote, “Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will.”

Vaccine-Induced Disease Epidemic Outbreaks: The Engineering of ‘Pandemics’

International Swine Flu Conference

  • Big Pharma, the Medical Mafia, don’t lie right? They are all about the Hippocratic oath: Do no harm to their patients right? If you believe that I would like to sell you the Golden Gate Bridge. Open your eyes, please! What are the Illuminati rulers planning? The same people that control the Medical Mafia are planning for : Depopulation! They control the MSM to promote their causes!
     
  • Eustace Mullins may be controversial, but he tells the truth. Unfortunately, people are so brain washed that they think evil is good and good is evil. The truth becomes a lie and vice versa. Here is his book: Murder By Injection: The Story Of The Medical Conspiracy Against America .
     
  • Dr Tru Ott, Phd, is also another very good researcher. This is what he has to say about past pandemics created by the Medical Mafia :
     
    As a matter of fact, the American Public in general was so optimistic and HAPPY in 1921, that relatively few people were unhealthy as well. For the first time in decades, hospital beds were empty. The fledgling American Medical Association, formed by John D. Rockefeller just a few years earlier, was worried. Business was sagging.
     
    Profits from vaccines and drugs were spiraling. Something had to be done, and done immediately. False, faux epidemics of smallpox were created to solve the problem, and keep the Medical Mafia’s cash registers ringing. 
     
    We know this dastardly plan actually happened, thanks to a citizen’s WATCHDOG GROUP in Kansas City, Missouri named “The Advertiser’s Protective Bureau”, who filed, and successfully prosecuted criminal charges against the Missouri state chapter of the AMA ­ the Jackson Medical Society. The ‘Protective Bureau’s” official report of this cold-blooded plot reads as follows: 
     
    “In the Fall of 1921, the health of the city was unusually good, but slow for the doctors. So the Jackson Medical Society met and resolved to make an epidemic in the city. According to the minutes of this meeting: ‘MOTION WAS MADE AND SECONDED, THAT A RECOMMENDATION BE MADE BY THE COMMITTEE, TO THE BOARD OF HEALTH, THAT AN EPIDEMIC OF SMALLPOX BE DECLARED IN THE CITY. (Investigation later revealed that there was NO SIGN OF AN EPIDEMIC at the time, in the city, or anywhere in the state or region!) 
     
    ‘It was moved and seconded that a day be set aside, termed VACCINATION DAY, on which physicians would be stationed at ALL SCHOOLS, clinics, public buildings and hospitals to vaccinate “free of charge”. (Vaccinations are never “free”. The taxpayers are always forced to pay for every one of the “free” vaccines.) 
     
    “IT IS FURTHER RECOMMENDED THAT WIDE PUBLICITY BE GIVEN, STATING THAT VACCINATION IS A PREVENTIVE OF SMALLPOX, AND URGING THE ABSOLUTE NECESSITY OF VACCINATION FOR EVERY MAN, WOMAN, AND CHILD IN THE CITY.” 
     
    The Protective Bureau proved in court that there WAS NO EPIDEMIC before the vaccinations!! The court records show that the Medical Society manufactured vast amounts of posters, fliers, newspaper stories and ads featuring horrific and lurid pictures of diseased children covered with massive smallpox sores and open wounds. Some pictures actually showed children’s corpses covered with the same ugly sores. The PANIC-DRIVEN message was clear — VACCINATE EVERYONE, or face a deadly public disease. There was a “sweeping epidemic” in the city; the disease was “highly contagious” and would “strike anyone who was not vaccinated” was the bill of goods sold! (Does this sound at all familiar today ­ 88 years later??) 
     
    The Medical Mafia’s propaganda blitz was successful, and over a million previously healthy and happy American citizens were hypnotized and terrorized into placing the vaccine toxins into their bloodstreams. All public school children in the region were vaccinated while at school! Parents who dared question the vaccination of their children were ostracized and publicly vilified. 
     
    THE COURT RECORD ON THIS CASE IS VERY CLEAR. In the weeks and months following the “mass vaccinations” ­ the area’s hospital beds were filled to over-flowing with VACCINE-INDUCED SMALLPOX CASES! 
     
    Tens of thousands of people became ill, and many hundreds of innocents died, and many more were permanently crippled! Of course, THE NEWSPAPERS THEN TRUMPETED HOW WISE THE MEDICAL ESTABLISHMENT WAS TO PROMOTE THE VACCINES ­ stating how much worse the death toll would have been without the vaccination campaign!! Untold MILLIONS OF DOLLARS of profit was generated by this massive “medical” fraud. 
     
    Thanks to the ADVERTISER’S PROTECTIVE BUREAU, however; the massive fraud was exposed and criminally prosecuted to a successful conviction. During the trial, three amazing facts were proven beyond any “reasonable doubt”. 
     
    Fact 1: The poster and advertising pictures showing the diseased and dying children used so successfully by the “doctors”, WERE NOT EVEN CASES OF LOCAL SMALLPOX CASES AS THEY WERE BILLED TO BE! The Protective Bureau documented that they were pictures of ENGLISH CHILDREN who were victims of “court-proven” cases of SMALLPOX VACCINE POISONING!! One of the pictures was of a 5-week-old baby named Mona Stevenson, of Humphrey Street, Burnley, England. A previously healthy and happy baby, Little Mona had been vaccinated for smallpox at 5 weeks of age. Four weeks later, her pox-ridden little body was placed in a tiny coffin and buried. The horrific photos of Little Mona and others in England had previously been published in British newspapers where details of the resulting CRIMINAL TRIALS were also given. The full details of the trials, as well as the pictures, were also included in a comprehensively large medical boot titled “THE HISTORY AND PATHOLOGY OF VACCINATION” by Edgar M Crookshank, MD ­ professor of Bacteriology at the ultra-elite Kings College, London England. 
     
    Fact 2: Vaccines containing LIVE VIRUSES, weakened (i.e. attenuated) or otherwise universally causes more diseases than the vaccine ever could prevent. 
     
    Fact 3: Vaccine-Induced-Disease (VID) is an extremely effective socio-economic tool. It has the potential to generate BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF WINDFALL PROFITS, while permanently changing the social structures of large groups of people. 
     
    While the Protective Bureau won the criminal court case ­ the American People lost. The case should have made front-page headlines around the nation, showing the Modus Operandi of certain corrupt “medical practitioners”. How, by means of fraud, treachery, and trickery, they made millions of dollars in windfall profits while thousands of innocent, trusting, and naïve Americans suffered and died. The entire sordid affair, with all its damning details, was kept out of the American Press. John D. Rockefeller’s AMA, with its millions of dollars of influence ­ made sure of that! 
     
    Amazingly, even though thousands of people had died or become crippled by this managed manslaughter, the doctors involved were only given a light penalty in the form of a token fine. The medical establishment as a whole was not upset in the least by the exposure ­ and has continued on unabated perpetuating the same crimes against humanity ­ creating vaccine-induced-diseases while fleecing the people continually until this present day. 
     
    It is a proven (albeit little-known) fact, EPIDEMIC/PANDEMIC MANUFACTURING IS STANDARD PRACTICE with the world-wide “Medical Mafia” circles. In order to maximize profits and re-shape geographical regions, they often manufacture a false-flag “emergency”. If there is an outbreak of mild seasonal virus, they call it an influenza pandemic, give it a fancy new name, and then actually CREATE THE PANDEMIC by means of mass vaccinations using ATTENUATED, or LIVE VIRUSES!! Remember the shocking words of the AMA’s Dr. Simon Louis Katzoff who said: ” DOCTORS LIVE BY DISEASE, SO THE PUBLIC CAN EXPECT THE SUPPLY OF DISEASE TO MEET THE DEMANDS OF THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.”

Is World Hunger About To Start In India? Food Shortages Coming to America? Global Starvation Imminent as US Faces Crop Failure?

  • This year, agriculture commodities harvests will be down by between 20-40%. The low stock level worldwide will exacerbate the situation. For certain grains, America seems to have completely exhausted warehouse inventory. Nogger’s Blog reports :
     
    It’s already been a tough year for Indian farmers, with monsoon rains 27% below normal June 1 to Aug. 18, according to Reuters. In the cane growing north west things are even worse, here rains are 37% lower in the period that normally provides around three quarters of the nations rainfall for the entire year.
     
    The government are playing down the seriousness of the situation in the run-up to the elections, despite an alarming increase in suicides in rural communities, in a country where up to 70% of the population are dependent on farm incomes. There’s no need to press the panic button yet, the government have re-assured the people, saying that they will release around 5.5 MMT of wheat and rice from state reserves to stem rapidly rising domestic food prices.
     
    According to media reports, the government held 18.79 MMT of rice and 31.62 MMT of wheat in reserves as at the end of July. That might sound like a lot, but in a country with a population the size of India (circa 1.1 billion) it represents less than two and a half months worth of rice consumption and less than five months supply of wheat.
     
    Last week the USDA cut it’s estimate of rice production this season by 15.5 MMT from it’s July prediction to 84 MMT, around 9 MMT lower than domestic consumption. There is no official word yet on wheat production estimates for 2010′s crop which will be harvested next March/April. With wheat demand forecast to rise, due to shortfalls in rice production, that 31.62 MMT is going to start disappearing very rapidly in a country that normally consumes around 6.5 MMT of wheat a month. Various media reports suggest that there is virtually no wheat left in private hands in India.
     
  • Holly Deyo reports on the situation in America :
     
    In recent days, numerous stories detail crop and livestock damage. Drought, floods, hail and freezes have bitten our foods, but whatever the cause, the result is the same — destroyed or damaged food supplies. These ultimately lead to higher store prices, shortages and in more extreme circumstances, rationing.
     
    California and Texas – America’s two main food producing states – are experiencing severe, ongoing drought. California is suffering through a 4th straight year of horrendous water shortages, which has impacted every single crop it produces. See     California’s Vital Role in Food Production for an eye-opener of what this states brings to your table.
     
    Parts of Texas are experiencing     the worst drought ever and fears are surfacing that it may be here to stay. Extreme drought is impacting everything that Texas produces. Marketing economist Dr. Mark Welch expects drought to cut Texas’ corn crops by 45%, sorghum by 69%, and wheat 62%. Cotton fields are so dry they’re being abandoned. These aren’t the only foods in trouble. Vegetables, horticulture plants, peaches and their world famous pecans have also taken severe hits. April freezes wiped out some Texas grapes leaving wineries in tough shape.
      
    Drought in     Wisconsin has pushed farmers to the edge and where it hasn’t destroyed crops and livestock outright, crops are at least 3 months behind. In Iowa, hail losses try farmers’ hearts. To the north, the story is the same. Some Canadian farmers expect to harvest only 20-25% of their usual yield.
     
    And don’t forget livestock… At least 40% of Texas’ cow herds live in exceptional or extreme drought areas. Little or no hay has been baled this year and cattle are suffering. Farmers have been forced to sell underweight animals because there’s no grass in the fields. In July it was deemed “critical” that Texas receive serious rain to maintain their animals. Now a month later, still no rain. This massive moisture blow has also affected goat, sheep and horse herds as well as honey production.
     
    Wyoming’s herds have thinned by 300,000 head. The crulprit? A decade-long drought. Canada too, feels the harsh impact with farmers struggling through the worst drought in 50 years and forced to sell their herds. Ditto in Argentina except their animals are dying before they get to market. Cuba and Guatamala are also experiencing food worries.
     
    The UK Telegraph writes that     El Niño Threatens Food Shortages. Longer-term consequences are detailed in Global Starvation Imminent as US Faces Crop Failure. While we are not at this point now, grouped together, current news stories paint an unsettling picture.
     
    We are a global community depending on other countries’ imports and exports. The US has many long-standing contracts promising to deliver millions of tons of grains and meats to other countries.     Pakistan, India, Africa and China – all very large countries/continents – have trouble growing enough food in normal times. Due to drought, they are in terrible shape. These are countries that regularly buys US foodstuff. What happens when are own supplies are in jeopardy? 
     
  • Marc Davis reports on the potential world famine:
     
    The world faces “mass starvation” following North America’s next major crop failure. And it could even happen before year’s end. So says Chicago-based Don Coxe, who is one of the world’s leading experts on agricultural commodities, so much so that Canada’s renowned BMO Financial Group named the fund after him.
      …
    …an imminent crop failure in North America will have particularly dire consequences for major overseas markets that are highly reliant on U.S. crop imports, Coxe cautions. Sadly, this scenario could have been avoided had successive North America’s governments not weakened the farming industry with too much political interference, he suggests.
     
    “We’ve got a situation where there has been no incentive to allocate significant new capital to agriculture or to develop new technologies to dramatically expand crop output. We’ve got complacency,” he told BNW News Wire. “So for those reasons I believe the next food crisis – when it comes – will be a bigger shock than $150 oil.”
      …
    He notes that farmers, not just in North America, but the world over are still reeling from the global economic meltdown and have consequently curtailed their output. Thus, the inauspicious prospect of a drop in global food production this year – the first annual dip in living memory – means that farmers will not be able to keep pace with current grain demand.
     
    “And when we have the first serious crop failure, which will happen, we will then have a full-blown food crisis, which we will not be able to get out of because we will still be struggling to catch up (as a result of diminished crop yields),” he says.
     
    Furthermore, the prospect of a near-term global food crisis has been exacerbated by a surge in demand for high-quality protein (meat) in emerging super-economies such as China and India, Coxe says. This means that burgeoning global demand for crop staples is already beginning to outstrip supply.
     
    “During this decade, the annual increase in hectares of global cultivated farmland has been roughly 1.5 per cent, at a time global demand for grains and soybeans has been growing at double that rate,” he says. “We will be dealing with mass starvation with the first serious crop failure. It could happen as early as this fall if for instance we have a killing freeze in Iowa in August.”

Large Russian Gold Purchase for July 2009

  • People who think that gold is a barbaric relic of ages past are wrong. Gold is real currency, real money. Central banks around the world seem to be quietly accumulating gold behind the scenes. China, India and Russia are buying gold. This is a fact. And why are they doing this? It is because they know the USD is close to collapse. They have to dispose of their hoard of USD before it becomes worthless.
     
  • Oil prices have rallied from a low of about US$30/barrel to US$74/barrel. This is despite the fact that the global economy has gone into depression. Demand clearly have slumped. So what is the reason for the more than doubling of oil price? It is because holders of USD are buying oil and disposing of their USD. Oil has become something like a proxy for fiat currency reserves. We find the situation repeated in the commodities market too.
     
  • JSMineset.com reports :
      
    I have been tracking the Russian central bank gold holdings since October of 2006 when they stood at 12.5 million ounces. Russia just reported their gold holdings as part of their Official reserve assets. See link below.
     
    http://www.cbr.ru/eng/statistics/credit_statistics/print.asp?file=liquidity_e.htm
     
    On the 20th of each month, Russia reports its gold holdings for the prior month. As of Aug 20, the Russian gold reserves now stand at 18.3 million ounces for July of 2009. This is an increase of 600,000 ounces of gold during the month of July 2009. Russia is now also showing their gold holdings for June 2009 on the link above.
     
    The July 2009 increase of 600,000 ounces is the biggest one month increase in their gold holdings since I have kept records. The largest one month increase in gold holdings prior to today’s report was a 400,000 ounce increase in Oct. 2008, August 2008, and Sept. 2007.
     
    Russia tends to increase their gold holdings every month. The only question is, how much they will increase their gold holdings this month? Russian purchases tend to be heavy in the August, September, October time period based on past history. If an average gold price is used of $930/oz for July, the 600,000 ounce purchase represents $558,000,000. Not exactly chump change.
     
    It is going to get real expensive for the banks to keep the gold price under $1,000/oz.

America: Days Away From Economic Chaos?

  • The banking crisis will get alot worse despite all the happy talk that the economy is turning the corner. The FDIC is essentially bankrupt. The coming 2nd Quarter 2009 FDIC report will confirm what most of us already suspect: as many as 1000 banks may go belly up. Some even think 2000+ banks will go bust. Bill Sardi analyses the situation:
      
    America is just a few days away from a possible day of reckoning. I again call attention to this day, August 25, when the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation issues its 2nd Quarter report for 2009 on the state of health of American banks. ….. We must wait and see how Americans respond to the upcoming FDIC report. 
      ….. 
    There are roughly 8400 American banks that set aside a small portion of their profits to aggregately insure bank depositors should their local bank fail. A plethora of bank failures has depleted the FDIC reserve fund from $52.8 billion in 2008 to $13 billion in the 1st Quarter of 2009. (See chart above) 
       
    Alison Vekshin, writing for Bloomberg, indicates :
     
    “The failure of 77 banks this year is draining the fund, prompting the agency in May to set an emergency fee of 5 cents for every $100 of assets, excluding Tier 1 capital, to raise $5.6 billion in the second quarter. The agency has authority to set fees in the third and fourth quarters, if needed, to prevent a decline in the fund from undermining public confidence.”
     
    Vekshin goes on to report that 56 bank failures since March 31 have cost the FDIC an estimated $16 billion. (For comparison, in the 1st Quarter, bank failures only cost the FDIC $2.2 billion.) That $16 billion bank rescue would fully deplete the FDIC fund as it only had $13 billion at the close of the 1stQuarter. It’s possible the FDIC has already tapped into its line of credit at the Treasury Department without setting off alarm bells to the public.
     
    The FDIC is required by law to maintain a reserve ratio, or balance divided by insured deposits, of 1.15 percent. It was at 0.27 percent as of March 31. It could be near zero at the current moment. (See chart at bottom of post)
     …
    Hiding losses
    Banks have been slow to foreclose, allowing mortgage holders a few months before their home is deemed in default and giving another 2 years before the property is foreclosed on its accounting books. This practice has been able to temporarily hide most of the banking collapse.
     
    But banks must eventually write down their real estate home mortgage losses. First-quarter net charge-offs of $37.8 billion were slightly lower than the $38.5 billion the industry charged-off in the fourth quarter of 2008. As banks write off bad home loans, this downsizes their asset values. Downsizing at a few large banks caused $302-billion decline in industry assets in the 1stQ. The FDIC report says:
     
    Total assets declined by $301.7 billion (2.2 percent) during the quarter, as a few large banks reduced their loan portfolios and trading accounts. This is the largest percentage decline in industry assets in a single quarter in the 25 years for which quarterly data are available. Eight large institutions accounted for the entire decline in industry assets; 
      …
    …US banks are directing a great deal of their profits towards write-offs (loss provision..) for non-paying home mortgages (foreclosures). So the banks only have about $5–7 billion of profit to direct to the FDIC to shore up its quickly vanishing reserve account. This aggregate profit equates to about $890,000 profit per bank in a quarter. That is a pretty thin margin. 
      ….
    Zombie banks
    The FDIC, which claimed only about 300 problem banks in the 1st Quarter of 2009, but hid the fact there were about 2000 total lame banks among its 8400 members, This has given rise to the term “zombie banks,” which are defined as “a financial institution with an economic net worth that is less than zero, but which continues to operate because its ability to repay its debts is shored up by implicit or explicit government credit support.”
      ….
    FDIC’s $13 billion against $220 billion liabilities
    So just how much liability does the FDIC bear aggregately for its “problem banks?” At the end of the 1st Quarter in 2009 the FDIC said that figure was $220 billion. Remember now, the FDIC had only about $13 billion to over these institutions at the time. ….This figure will likely grow beyond imagination with the issuance of the FDIC 2ndQ report.
      ….
    How do American banks make profit today?
    … the FDIC 1st Quarter report tells all – our so-called conservative American bankers, entrusted with your hard-earned savings, with no place to turn to generate traditional profits, have entered the gambling parlor. Here is how the FDIC said it:
     
    Sharply higher trading revenues at large banks helped FDIC-insured institutions post an aggregate net profit of $7.6 billion in the first quarter of 2009.
     
    Trading revenues means profit generated from trading stocks and other risky investments. Recall, when your money was being financed commercial and residential property it had some collateral behind it. An asset (real estate) was held in balance against the risk of failure to pay the loan. Now bankers are “investing” your money in the stock market in what appears to be a replay of how the Japanese propped up their stock market in recent years – by simply having major companies purchase each other’s shares to prop up value. 
       …
    Banks valued by goodwill and bailout funds
    So there, you can see that in addition to goodwill, the bank’s capital was largely increased by bailout funds. So a dose of reality therapy will lead one to conclude that nearly all American banks are essentially insolvent.
     
    If this leaves you feeling a bit queasy, well, you may need to reach for Dramamine when you realize the FDIC is not only broke, but it will probably announce it is tapping into its line of credit at the US Treasury Department, which is also insolvent (America is spending $1.58 trillion more than it collects in taxes this year). 
      …
    The mother of all bank runs?
    Now if just a small portion of American bank depositors hear that the FDIC had to tap into the US Treasury for funds, and these depositors feel their banked money is at risk and want to withdraw some of it, the mother of all bank runs could ensue. This could create the day of reckoning that many have predicted. A short banking holiday would have to be declared and who knows what happens from there – troops in the streets, issuance of new currency, martial law? Don’t think those in the Federal government haven’t made plans for such an occurrence.

Monetization of US Treasury Bonds. A Deep Dollar Devaluation Comes!

  • The Feds is borrowing something like US$200B-250B/mth officially. Unofficially, I think the figure is closer to US$300B/mth. Last fiscal year, the US government borrowed something like US$360B for the entire year! You see the enormity of the problem now? The debt market is finite. It consists of not just government debt but also corporate debt, private debt…etc. If the government takes up such an enormous amount of capital from the entire market, where are corporations going to get their funding? Now that foreigners are refusing to finance these debts what is Uncle Sam going to do?
     
  • The US government has 2 options.
     
    Option 1: Continue monetizing debts ie print money out of thin air to buy its own debts. Something Bernanke said he will not do beyond the announced US$300B. He has already used up US$260B.
     
    Option 2: Devalue the USD by revaluing gold upwards massively. The US government has about US$250B of physical gold based on current price. They can simply declare the physical gold as now worth US$15T, ie a 60X revaluation upwards. And via this ‘voodoo’ economics, they can pay off all their debts and need not borrow any more.
     
  • Even if the government opts for continuing option 1, it means the USD will be devalued by stealth. So, which ever way you choose, the USD is toast. Option 2 sounds like some kind of black magic sleight of hand. Well it is! The US government has done this in 1932-33 and Nixon has also done something similar during the 70s. If you think it cannot happen, think again!
     
  • To restore confidence, after the massive devaluation of the USD, the Feds may decide to issue another currency back by gold. So, if the Amero happens, it will not surprise me at all. Devaluation means a stealth taxation of existing  holders of USD. It is in effect ‘stealing’. This will piss off foreign creditors, citizens….etc. No government has ever inflated their way out of an economic problem successfully. But many governments have opted for it. It is their favored method of getting out of the shit hole, they have dug for themselves.
     
  • Jim Willie opines :
     
    The chart (see above) provided by CIGA Eric covers several important types of US$-based bonds, their inflow and outflow, and the aggregate GrandNet. The financial data is publicly available from the USGovt TIC Reports. The messages are clear. Inflows of foreign funds are dwindling.
      
    In the case of USAgency Mortgage Bonds and USCorp Bonds, the nation is witnessing something unprecedented, the net outflow of funds.This is outright rejection. This chart exposes the isolation problem of the USDollar in the bond world, clearly the most important market beneath the currency market. The printing press is the last option.
      
    Ominous is a strong word. Abandonment is better, but disaster is better still. “I find this simple chart so ominous I had to send it. Decelerating year-over-year inflows and outflows across the board. Stick your head in the sand if you like, but string this trend out a little longer and you’re going to have flight from the dollar.” So wrote CIGA Eric. See the article that displays this graph and his few words on the JSMineset weblog (CLICK     HERE).
     
    The foreign creditors are moving away from the United States, plain and simple. The big bold red series shows the Grand Net US$-based bond reduction in net flow change from a high around $950 billion in early 2007 to a figure now approaching only $200 billion, thus a severe cut in net inflow. The greater alarm comes from the USCorporate Bonds in the yellow series, whose net flow change is down from a plus $600 billion high at the same time to a slight net outflow negative figure now. The USAgency Mortgage Bonds in chartreuse/mauve/pink have net flow change with peak of plus $300 billion at the same time to a net outflowof a frightening $150 billion now. Since the important peak for mortgage and corporate bonds, the USTreasurys in blue series have recovered from a $200 billion net positive inflow to a $400 billion net inflow. However, one should suspect that the USFed is purchasing the USTreasurys from convenient accounts bearing foreign names, using American funds, and laced with sinister motives founded in deception. Foreigners in all likelihood are not the primary purchasers.
     
    The foreign purchase declines from peak levels two years ago have fallen off a cliff…. The United States credit markets are losing their legitimate liquidity and increasingly are turning to the desperate reckless alternative, namely the dreaded MONETIZATION. Mortgages in the United States must maintain funding from the USFed and USGovt by direct purchase, no longer a market action. There are mainly sellers. The corporations in the US must maintain funding from a more desperate means. See the Samurai Bonds offered in Japanese Yen denomination, the ones growing in popularity. My view is that a good slice of USGovt Treasury Bonds will be denominated in foreign currency routinely within one year, if the US$ system survives in its current form that long. The conclusion is clear from the messages, both graphic and statistical, that THE US$-BASED BONDS OF ALL TYPES WILL RELY ON DIRECT MONETIZATION VERY SOON OR IMMEDIATELY.
      
    US TREASURY MONETIZATION
    Monetization of USTreasurys is occurring in a profound blatant fashion. Such action infuriates the Chinese creditors, while at the same time creates a huge rift between the US Federal Reserve and the USDept Treasury. The rift is political and will come to a head when Chairman Bernanke is due for renewal of his post in a few months. China exerts its constant pressure on the USFed to end the Quantitative Easing efforts. Like doctors, they wish to apply a tourniquet to a gaping leg wound that bleeds a red river onto the pavement. The term is a funny euphemism, a sophisticated economist term for Heavy Duty Money Printing that results in destruction of a currency if not kept under control. The USDollar stewards are NOT demonstrating control, discipline, or even anything remotely resembling honesty or integrity.The USDept Treasury wants to continue funding the federal deficit, and for yucks, add any and every conceivable new program onto the books while the federal insolvent bankruptcy makes marginal additions not so noticeable.
     
    The USFed engages in almost immediately permanent operations to snag the primary dealer USTreasurys gatherings bid at auction, for a simple shell game shuffle. The USFed engages in a sneakier but still obvious hidden bidder game with foreign central banks. They use USDollar Swap Facilities (with gargantuan funds) and bid heavily on the USTreasurys, evidence being the ‘Indirect Bid’ component. If not for the USFed buying most of the USTreasurys issued, the long-term interest rates would be rising quickly and with alarm. If not for the USFed heavy buying, the USDollar would be doing a swan dive off a cliff into rough waters. As has been claimed in past work, the USGovt stewards of the wrecked buck can save the USTreasury or save the USDollar, but not both. Their monetization efforts here and abroad indicate a clear intention to save the USTreasury Bond.     They put the USDollar at grave risk. The Weimar Territory lies directly ahead!
     
    USDOLLAR DELAYS INEVITABLE CRASH
    The USDollar remains firmly stuck at the cliff’s edge….Something big is coming and soon. All billboards scream it!! ….A deep USDollar devaluation comes!!!

An Avalanche of Insider Stock Selling!

  • To those who hold to the bull market view, this is not good news. Apparently, insiders are jumping ship and running for the hills. The Golden Truth reports :
     
    What’s the “message” of the market here? Over the last two weeks corporate insiders have dumped over $2.1 billion in stock vs. $73.1 million in buys. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen the ratio of insider sells vs. buys this skewed toward officers and directors looking for the exit door. Talk about the captain jumping into the lifeboat and speeding away before the ship sinks….
     
    Given that the trailing, “as reported” price/earnings ratio is now 144, or substantially above the peak p/e ratio on the Nasdaq at the top of the tech bubble, what is the market trying to tell us?
     
    Think about that when you call up your financial advisor or broker and tell him you want get out of the stock market. 
     
  • Bob Bronson writes :
      
    Corporate Insiders Selling Stocks , Extremely Bearish
    … Insiders at companies in the aggregate are still unloading their companies’ stock at the most rapid clip at least since October 2007…
      
    Insiders are those corporate officers, directors, major shareholders and others have an inside track on the future earnings outlook for their companies, as well on the relative attractiveness of the price of their companies’ stocks.  Insiders’ buying and selling activity is a particularly useful market indicator over the short term (weeks) to intermediate term (months), especially when used in conjunction with other market timing indicators.
     
    Insiders normally sell about twice as many shares as they buy, since they receive shares of stock from their employers as part of their total compensation package and need to sell in order to get at the money.  However, in the five weeks ending August 12 and reported today, August 14, by the WSJ’s Market Data Center, insiders sold a whopping $2.2 billion and purchased only $62.2 million in their companies for a huge sell-to-buy ratio of 36:1, or 17 times normal….
      
    Selling to buying in technology stocks was a huge 61:1, or 24 times normal.  And remember that technology stocks lead the market, so the insider selling in that sector is an extraordinarily bearish indicator for the direction of the stock market. 
     
    This latest report, which includes insider activity when the S&P 500 index made its 1018 intraday high last Friday, in itself is another major sell signal for the stock market.  Taken together with the sell signals from insiders’ extremely high levels of net selling during the previous four weeks, the reconfirmation is an additional, extremely bearish signal.

More Green Shoots: US Home Repossessions Rocket to Record Levels!

  • Yup! Economy is turning the corner. Green shoots are sprouting every where. The stock market has rallied 50% from its bottom. And yes, I have a condo on planet Mars I would like to sell you. It comes with an Olympic size swimming pool and many BBQ pits. 
     
    US home repossessions rocket to record levels
    Las Vegas is worst hit, while the overall records show an alarming 32% increase in repossessions year-on-year.
      
    Home repossessions have rocketed to a new high in the US as a tide of misery sweeping through the mortgage market stubbornly resists large-scale programmes by the     Obama administration to keep struggling borrowers from losing their houses.
     
    Foreclosure documents were filed on 360,149 properties during July – a rise of 7% on the previous month, and a 32% increase year-on-year. It was the third time in five months that foreclosure activity set a new record. America’s repossession capital was the desert casino city of Las Vegas, where foreclosure documents were filed on one in every 47 homes. Nevada, California, Florida and Arizona accounted for more than half of US foreclosure activity, as a vigorous housing boom driven by rapidly expanding cities in the middle of the decade turned to a spectacular bust.
     
    James Saccacio, chief executive of RealtyTrac, the online marketplace that compiled the figures, said: “Despite continued efforts by the federal government and state governments to patch together a safety net for distressed homeowners, we’re seeing significant growth in both the initial notices of default and in the bank repossessions.”
     
    More than 860,000 families in the US lost their homes during 2008 as risky subprime mortgages proved unsustainable, and the figure is set to be even higher this year, in spite of a series of government initiatives pushing banks to amend delinquent loans to provide relief for struggling borrowers.

Peter Schiff: Buffet is Wrong on the Solution to The Economic Crisis!

America’s Secret Destiny: The Illuminati, Free Masons, The Founding Fathers and The New World Order!

  • Ralph Epperson’s Conspiratorial View of American history is something that need to be said. But it will be difficult to accept for most. History is largely written by the victors, by the rich and powerful with their hidden agendas. History as it is taught in schools is mostly propaganda and sadly consisting in lies and fairy tales.
     
  • The truth is: there is a hidden shadowy Illuminati ruling power that drives the world to their New World Order, One World Government, One World Religion, One World Financial/Banking System and One World Police State. The bible talks about this Satanic shadow power as ‘the mystery of lawlessness’.
     
  • The fact that this shadowy group is showing some of its cards, tells us that we are reaching the final 7 years of this age faster than most realize. Ralph Epperson identifies the key people and their behind the scenes organizations of this coming New World Order.
     
  • Ralph Epperson explains the hidden plan for America with documented historical evidence. He traces the roots of this conspiracy from the ancient Egyptians to the founding fathers, Albert Pike, Cecil Rhodes, Kissinger, Bill Clinton, Bush Senior… onto the 21st century. What will America’s role be leading up to the final 7 years of this Age?
     
  • As I have said before, America is being ‘Nazified’ and will be used by this shadow power to conquer many countries, trigger wars, cause famine…pandemic…with the intention of destroying the current world system. Order Out of Chaos, the Hegelian dialectic, the Illuminati principle to drive the sheeple to accept their New World Order. And finally America, as we know it, will be destroyed and will be merged into the new United Nations 2.0 (League of Democracies??) along with many countries.
     
  • Ralph provides documented proof, albeit controversial. Many will find it difficult to accept. But he is uncomfortably closer to the truth than most realize.

    The Scarlet Woman and the Scarlet Beast
    Revelation 17 : 1-6 
    1 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me, “Come, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, 2 with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.”
    3 So he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication.5 And on her forehead a name was written: 
     
          MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
     
    6 I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great amazement.

UK: Plans Drawn Up for Mass Graves for Swine Flu Pandemic Victims

  • Great news people, the UK government despite its incompetence and boldface lies in many areas, has been planning well ahead for the many dead people that will come about due to the swine flu pandemic. Isn’t it great to know that your government is totally competent and far sighted in planning for mass graves. Heck, they seem to be utterly convinced that this very very mild swine flu, in reality much milder than seasonal flu, will kill lots and lots of people. I wonder why? All these conspiracy idiots talking about depopulation and the Satanic Illuminati shadow ruling power cannot be right! Or can they ?
     
  • Let me think. Which religion is always fascinated with death: The Cult of Death. Isn’t this Luciferianism? The devil needs its’ human sacrifice? The Sun UK reports :
     
    Deadly Serious
    PLANS for mass graves have been drawn up to cope with a second wave of swine flu this Autumn. The chilling proposals are spelled out in a Home Office document discussed at a meeting of Whitehall officials and council leaders last month.
     
    It warns emergency plans may be needed in areas where there are not enough graves to cope. The 59-page document talks about using “a grave that is for a number of unrelated persons, excavated mechanically in advance and designed for efficient preparation and use”.
      
    It said this approach would create a “burial site for multiple graves and consecutive burials”. But it stressed there must still be “marking of the position of individual burials.” The document is called A Framework for Planners Preparing to Manage Deaths.
     
    The meeting heard the number of burials could more than double within a few weeks of a full-blown pandemic. It heard a presentation on the Home Office guidance from John Barrelled, a senior official from Westminster City Council. The document warned some cemeteries “may experience shortage of grave space, in particular in inner city areas”.
      
    Freight containers and “inflatable” storage units may be needed to provide extra mortuary space. But it stressed “refrigerated vehicles and trailers should not be used”. Cemeteries and crematoriums may need to work seven days a week and hire extra staff to cope.
     
    It also warned there may be a need for more “basic and shorter services at the chapel” or for “memorial services” to be held at a person’s home instead. It may no longer be possible to bury some people in family plots. New laws could be passed to allow “streamlined” cremations.
      
    Whitehall officials are speaking to coffin makers to see if they can meet demand. Retired docs could be drafted in to issue death certificates so GPs can focus on patients. It may also become impossible to fly home the bodies of Britons who die abroad. Presently 30 per cent of people are buried.
     
    New cases of swine flu have fallen sharply from a peak of over 110,000 a week in late July. But experts predict a second wave this autumn.
