Alex Jones: Cross-Species Hybridization And Bioengineering – We’re Not in Kansas Anymore!

  • 150 human animal hybrids grown in UK labs: Embryos have been produced secretively for the past three years
    By Daniel Martin and Simon Caldwell, http://www.dailymail.co.uk/
    Scientists have created more than 150 human-animal hybrid embryos in British laboratories. The hybrids have been produced secretively over the past three years by researchers looking into possible cures for a wide range of diseases.
    -
    The revelation comes just a day after a committee of scientists warned of a nightmare ‘Planet of the Apes’ scenario in which work on human-animal creations goes too far. Last night a campaigner against the excesses of medical research said he was disgusted that scientists were ‘dabbling in the grotesque’.
    -
    Figures seen by the Daily Mail show that 155 ‘admixed’ embryos, containing both human and animal genetic material, have been created since the introduction of the 2008 Human Fertilisation Embryology Act. This legalised the creation of a variety of hybrids, including an animal egg fertilised by a human sperm; ‘cybrids’, in which a human nucleus is implanted into an animal cell; and ‘chimeras’, in which human cells are mixed with animal embryos.
    -
    Scientists say the techniques can be used to develop embryonic stem cells which can be used to treat a range of incurable illnesses. Three labs in the UK – at King’s College London, Newcastle University and Warwick University – were granted licences to carry out the research after the Act came into force. All have now stopped creating hybrid embryos due to a lack of funding, but scientists believe that there will be more such work in the future.
    -
    The figure was revealed to crossbench peer Lord Alton following a Parliamentary question. Last night he said: ‘I argued in Parliament against the creation of human- animal hybrids as a matter of principle. None of the scientists who appeared before us could give us any justification in terms of treatment. ‘Ethically it can never be justifiable – it discredits us as a country. It is dabbling in the grotesque.
    -
    ‘At every stage the justification from scientists has been: if only you allow us to do this, we will find cures for every illness known to mankind. This is emotional blackmail. ‘Of the 80 treatments and cures which have come about from stem cells, all have come from adult stem cells – not embryonic ones. ‘On moral and ethical grounds  this fails; and on scientific and medical ones too.’
    -
    Josephine Quintavalle, of pro-life group Comment on Reproductive Ethics, said: ‘I am aghast that this is going on and we didn’t know anything about it. ‘Why have they kept this a secret? If they are proud of what they are doing, why do we need to ask Parliamentary questions for this to come to light?

Stewart Thomson: Food Crisis, Debt Crisis, Gold Stocks, Gold Revaluation ….

  • I have written about official gold revaluation in the past. The US government has 8100 tonnes of physical gold officially. (Stepping away from the argument by many that it has already been stolen. Which is probable!) The Feds owe US$14.3T in current debts. What they can do is simply to announce a gold revaluation ie. raise the price of gold officially. They can for eg. announce that the 8100 tonnes of gold is now worth US$15T!
    -
  • This will raise the price of gold to US$57,800/ounce (from its current price of US$1620/oz)! Straight away the US government will be solvent! In reality, this is a devaluation of the USD against gold (and all currencies, should other countries choose not to follow suit with a gold revaluation of their own!). It is all a SCAM !
    -
  • Stewart Thomson is someone I follow closely. He is the spot on field commander of gold warriors. Listen to his sound advice and analysis!

    Earth to Gold Stock Bears on Mars, knock knock…
    by Stewart Thomson, http://www.321gold.com/
    It’s just a dang disaster everywhere you look,” Redmon said. “I haven’t even seen a corn crop this year, unless it’s being irrigated. Those guys just got hammered.” –Bloomberg News, July 25, 2011.
    -
    While leveraged hedge fund managers read the USDA reports of “record corn plantings”, then leverage the dollar against food in a crazed food shorting frenzy, farmers in the real world are watching their crops burn. This situation may be just the beginning of a food price parabola.
    -
    The situation is grim, and food prices are probably set to become one more driver pushing the gold price thermometer steadily higher, not just for price, but for time. The list of gold time and price drivers is growing, and intensifying.
    -
    Against this horrific background of possible (probable?) looming food shortages, President Obama addressed the American nation last night. He predicted dire consequences for financial markets, unless taxes are raised on “the millionaires and billionaires”.
    -
    I doubt that a 100% taxation rate on all US individuals and corporations could even eliminate the deficit now, let alone solve the OTC derivatives and unfunded liabilities debt bombs. The situation has redlined, and the gold thermometer of the world’s financial health indicates a five alarm fire is raging.
    ….
    Live in the present, not the past. In the 1930’s, gold was re-valued about 70% higher against the dollar, purportedly to save the system from imploding. $1600 gold is very high, against the background of a nation working diligently to reduce debt and spending. Is that what is happening now? No, the opposite situation is happening, and the steadily rising price of gold reflects current reality.

    -
    Did you notice the expression on President Obama’s face in his address to the nation? The situation is clearly grim, and he’s prepared to take powerful action. I told you about the possibility of a certain man wearing a gold mask a long time ago. Do you remember his name?
    -
     Don’t think that your President hasn’t considered closing all markets and banks, banning the public from buying gold bullion, and then revaluing gold dramatically higher. If that occurred, when he re-opened the markets, what would you feel like, what would be your financial gain or loss? Would you be in golden party mode? I hope so.
    -
     I told you that QE was a water gun against a forest fire and destined for the backburner, and that’s what has occurred. Gold revaluation, not grandstanding tax increases or QE squirt guns, is the kind of drastic action needed to make the epic debt manageable.
    -
    The way a modern revaluation would likely work is that gold dealers could be limited in what gold, if any, could be sold to the public, and the most powerful central banks would announce they are prepared to buy any amount of gold from anyone at a certain minimum “floor price”.
    -
    Let me ask all those who are telling you that your gold stocks are finished a little question. If institutional money managers were faced with a modern gold revaluation situation, where bullion buying was limited or even eliminated, do you think those managers might possibly consider buying gold stock?

    -
    Earth to gold stock bears on Mars, knock knock, is anyone with an IQ over 10 home? Sadly, nobody is home, and many are actually naked short gold stocks. The scheme is to short the stocks and buy bullion in a ratio trade. Pure genius! Just remember that there is a very fine line between genius and insanity. When GDX blows the doors off the US dollar toilet paper roll, at just over $64, and does it with or without gold revaluation, you could see gold stocks start a rocket ride towards GDX $75-80, then on to $100. The bears could be exterminated.
    …..
    Many investors and analysts who totally failed to predict the 2008 crisis, and liquidated into the lows, are now telling you to be ready for “Lehman 2”. Only an idiot is not removing some cash today from the financial system, given the grim statements made last night by the President of the United States. While put options are the best insurance you can buy for your gold holdings, you should also understand that the situation is so dire that a default could also cause gold to spiral higher, or be re-valued higher by central banks.
    -
    Can you even imagine the horrors of blowing out your gold on a debt default-fuelled hit to say, $1200 gold, only to watch the President of the United States close the banks and markets, address the nation, and announce gold has been re-valued overnight to numbers that now seem inconceivable and impossible?

    -
    You’d be wiped off the financial map by the man in the golden mask, and the only question is, are you prepared?
    -
    The bottom line is that those who were blown away into the Dow lows of 6500, while I bought and told you to buy, may not necessarily be your best “beacons in the storm” during this new phase of the accelerating crisis. Predicting your way through the crisis has not worked up to this point, and it’s likely about to get a whole lot harder to do so.

    -
    It’s very important to keep a distance from those telling you “what you want to hear”. It feels comforting to “know” another 2008 is coming, and so if you just sell in size now, you can always get back in later. That’s a very soothing thought, but is it valid? Think of the breadlines of the 1930s. This crisis is far bigger, and the US dollar is now held up by liquidity flows and promises, not 20,000 tons of gold. You can’t know what is coming, but you can respond to what happens.
    …..
     I’d like you to look at the horrific financial positioning of Elmer Fudd Public Investor. He waddles in and buys bonds after a 30 year bull market. That crap pays him negative real interest rates. He’s soaked in debt and lives far beyond his means. Fudd believes the Gman and Ben “Dr. Pinocchio” Bernanke are his saviours. The bottom line is that Fudd is all boxed in with nowhere to go, except straight down to the breadline.
    -
     I told you that you would soon feel “fear beyond fear” as the dollar and the bond begin to implode. We are on the cusp of that situation now. You need more cash (outside the system) and more gold, as the crisis accelerates. Click this swiss franc takes a bat to the dollar chart link now, to ask yourself what kind of cash within the system you really need. See you out there, on the price grids. Thanks!

Paul Craig Roberts: The President Can Just Ignore The Debt Ceiling Limit; Will Republicans Make Congress Superfluous?

Dr. Paul Craig Roberts is the father of Reaganomics and the former head of policy at the Department of Treasury. He is a columnist and was previously an editor for the Wall Street Journal. His latest book, “How the Economy Was Lost: The War of the Worlds,” details why America is disintegrating.

  • Take it from Paul C. Roberts: it is all political theatre! The real issue is: what is the path to the final outcome of QE3…to infinity! I am not in agreement with him on 1 point: I believe the Illuminist snakes are setting up the destruction of the USD to be replaced by a One World Currency!
    -
    Paul Craig Roberts: The President Can Just Ignore the Debt Ceiling Limit; Will Republicans Make Congress Superfluous?
    The drama of it all! Will Congress refuse to raise the debt ceiling, forcing the US government to default and, thereby, immediately turning the “world’s only superpower” into a Third World country subject to an IMF austerity program? The markets are poised to explode upward in jubilation or collapse in despondency. Only in America could such fantasy dominate the news.
    -
    Does anyone really believe that the US government would default on its debt?
    The debt ceiling/default “crisis” is nothing but political theater. The Republicans are employing scare tactics in their attempt to destroy the social safety net. The Democrats are playing along with the assault on “entitlements,” because it is what the majority of their large contributors want.
    -
    The presstitutes dish out the fantasy as if it were reality. The US government will never default on its debt, because the government can print an endless stream of money to redeem its bonds.
    -
    The Republicans would love to gut Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, food stamps, unemployment insurance, education, and any and everything that benefits ordinary people. But do they want to gut their wars?
    -
    Do they want to gut American financial hegemony over the world?
    Do they want the US dollar replaced as world reserve currency and oil to be priced in a different currency than the US dollar? Of course they don’t. And if the Republicans are not smart enough to have figured out these consequences of their refusal to raise the debt ceiling, someone will tell them before it is too late.
    -
    But in truth it matters not whether the debt ceiling is raised. The Bush regime, with the complicity of the federal courts and Congress, established that the president has essentially unlimited powers not bound by law when the country is at war. The president does not have to follow the Constitution or obey statutory law. He can ignore the laws against spying on Americans without warrants. He can ignore the laws against torture and against indefinite detention without presenting charges in a court. He can even ignore the War Powers Act. Obviously, the president can also ignore the debt ceiling limit.
    -
    If banks are too-big-to-fail, so is the US government. All Obama has to do is to declare a national emergency, set aside the debt ceiling limit on national security grounds, and continue to issue debt. If the Federal Reserve were to resist, which it never would, Obama would simply nationalize the institution. If US presidents can take over the steel industry, or bring the industry to heel with the threat, it can take over the Federal Reserve.
    -
    If Congress fails to raise the debt ceiling, the only consequence would be the further erosion of Congress’ diminished power. Obama would say, and the public would accept, that Congress was unable to do its share of governing and had left the troops without supplies, the dollar unprotected, and was casting away American power.
    -
    The final result would be that Congress, having already lost the power to declare war, would lose the power of the purse. Henceforth budgets would be determined by the executive branch, which would also determine the proportions of expenditures covered by taxes, by borrowing, and by money creation.
    -
    The Republicans would have made Congress irrelevant like the Roman senate under the caesars.

The US$1 Billion Armageddon Trade Placed Against the United States Bond Market!

Does someone know something we don't?

  • Who is this entity/person who placed this bet against the US government? No one who has this kind of money and understands the US bond market would dare place such a large bet against the ruling power! Unless, of course, he is an insider and has been alerted to do so. Remember all the bets placed just before 9/11 against airlines and insurance companies? Could this be similar? We will know soon enough! If true, it means that the snakes are engineering a global financial collapse!

    The $1 Billion Armageddon Trade Placed Against the United States Bond Market
    By Jack Barnes, Contributing Writer, Money Morning
    Someone dropped a bomb on the bond market Thursday – a $1  billion Armageddon trade betting the United States will lose its AAA credit  rating. In one moment, an invisible trader placed a single trade  that moved the most liquid debt market in the world.

    -
    The massive trade wasn’t placed in bonds themselves; it was  placed in the futures market. The trade was for block trades of 5,370 10-year Treasury  futures executed at 124-03 and 3,100 Treasury bond futures executed at 125-01.
    -
    The value of the trade was about $850 million dollars. In  simple terms, if that was a direct bond buy, no one would be talking about it. However, with the use of futures, you have to have margin capacity behind the trade. That means with a single push of a button someone was willing to commit more than $1 billion of real capital to this trade with expectations of a 10-to-1 return ratio.
    You only do this if you see an edge.
    -
    This means someone is confident that the United States is either going to default or is going to lose its AAA rating. That someone is willing to bet the proverbial farm that U.S. interest rates will be going  up.

    -
    I believe what happened is a debt-ceiling deal was done in  Washington and leaked to a major proprietary trader. Everyone knows the debt  negotiations in Washington have been an extreme game of brinksmanship between  political parties, but now someone knows how that game played out.
    -
    This had the hallmarks of one of the largest bond shops in  the world knowing something the rest of the market didn’t. The number of shops or even central banks that can take on  this level of market risk is extremely small. Some that come to mind are hedge  fund manager John Paulson, Bill Gross’s PIMCO, and the U.S. and Chinese central  banks.
    -
    Paulson already scored big – about $6 billion big – on a  similar trade years ago when he bet against subprime mortgages, the investments  that helped bring down Lehman Bros. and many other investors. Whoever was behind it wanted a trade on ASAP, and didn’t  care about the ripples they would cause.
    -
    You can see how this trade caused fear to be unleashed in  the market once it got out and the implications hit by looking at U.S.  Treasuries. People who were long 30-year Treasuries panicked as they saw the  huge short put on the futures market, and started to unwind their long  exposure.
    -
    What you, as investors, should do now is look at the bond  exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that provide a positive rate of return when U.S.  Treasuries drop in value. Yields are going up sooner rather than later, if the  person behind this Armageddon trade is correct.

Can Obama Raise the Debt Ceiling Alone Via 14th Amendment?

  • Will the Illuminist bankster snakes get their puppet Obama to raise the debt ceiling by fiat without the approval of Congress? They may engineer a global financial and monetary crisis. Then, get Obama to declare an emergency, assume emergency powers (Rex 84, COG – Continuity of Government) and do away with Congress. After which Obama will unilaterally raise the debt ceiling! America will fall into martial law, police state and full dictatorship!

Flashback 2010: Erin Burnett – 80% of Debt Was Bought By The U.S. Federal Reserve Which Means … Ponzi Scheme!!

  • Erin Burnett makes the remarks at 1:45! Who is going to buy all the debts issued by the US government after the debt ceiling is raised? The MSM is selling the message that raising the debt ceiling is a Good Thing! It is the correct solution or the whole world will collapse. How is piling more debts upon insurmountable debts a good thing? You cannot solve a debt problem with more debts!
    -
  • QE3, QE4… QE Infinity is an absolute certainty. How the snakes intend to engineer a crisis to make creating money out of thin air (QE) a Good/Correct Solution is another question? They may go down to the wire, go past the 2 August date, approach the drop dead 15 August refinancing, interest payments date and cause massive chaos, financial earthquakes, currency crisis…etc. Thereafter, the Illuminist banksters will step in and pose as saviors again with their money printing! The USD is toast! Got gold yet?

CIA Funding And Manipulation of The U.S. News Media!

  • The CIA, Mossad, MI5/6 … are Illuminist intelligence agencies. The top echelons are Illuminists: FreeMasons, Skull & Bones ..etc. This does not mean that everyone in these agencies are Illuminists or serve the Illuminist’s interest. The bottom rank and file simply do not know the truth. They are deceived useful idiots. These Illuminist intelligence agencies do not serve the interest of the American, British, Israeli … people. They serve the Illuminist Luciferian agenda.

    “In March, 1915, the J.P.

The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated.”
    Bertrand Russell, philosopher, educator and atheist

    “The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. …We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. …In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons…who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind.
    “Propaganda” by Edward L. Bernays (the father of modern advertising), 1928.

    “We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries.”
    David Rockefeller, founder of the Trilateral Commission, in an address to a meeting of The Trilateral Commission, in June, 1991.
