9/11: Missing Links To Zionist Israel !

Revelation 2:9 – …. and I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.

“ … it turns out the creation of Israel had not, after all, been a haphazard fight in which the Arabs fled their homes at the directives of their own leaders, but it had been an unprovoked, systematic campaign of ethnic cleansing by the Jewish militia involving massacres, terrorism and the wholesale looting of an entire nation.” - from 4:22 onwards

  • Readying for War? DHS Federal Law Enforcement Training Center Puts in Order for More Ammo! 
    By Alex Thomas theintelhub.com
    Over the last month we have reported on the numerous and increasingly alarming purchases of hollow point ammuntion by the Department of Homeland Security.
    -
    While many have claimed that it is completely normal for domestic government agencies to order over 750 million rounds of .40 caliber hollow point ammo, the fact remains that these purchases have been anything but normal and signal a full scale militarization of various government agencies that could one day take on the American people.
    -
    Now, a new post on the infamous FBO.gov website by Homeland Security is once against raising eyebrows. In the request, the Combined Synopsis / Solicitation shows that the following ammunition is set to be delivered in May.
    -
    Item No . Description Qty Unit
    001  .22 long rifle, 36 grains hollow point (HP) 5 TH
    002  .308 175 grains match boat tail hollow point (BTHP) 1000 EA
    003  .45 ACP 230 grains jacketed hollow point (JHP) 500 EA
    004  .45 Colt / Long Colt, 25 grains lead 100 EA
    005  .300 AAC black out, 125 grains open tip match 250 EA
    006  .44 mangnum, 240 grains jacketed soft point 100 EA
    007  .44 special, 240 grains lead flat nose 100 EA
    008  .22 magnum, 40 grains jacketed hollow point 400 EA
    009  .30-30 winchester, 150 grains soft point 100 EA
    010  12 GA, # 8 bird shot 400 EA 011 .30-06, 168 grains match 500 EA
    -
    In an article appearing on the Prepper Podcast website, James Smith commented on the fact that the above ammunition is essentially the most basic and common ammo that you might find in an everyday American’s house.
    -
    These caliber types are consistent with a variety of handguns and rifle, as if they were familiarizing new shooters on a variety of weapons, from .22 caliber to the 12 gauge shotgun, up to 100 rounds of 44 magnum ammunition.
    -
    It almost seems they are training “personnel” on how to use weapons that would be in most people’s homes. Regardless of the reason, if asked they will never tell us the truth and this all falls under the umbrella of “National Security”.
    -
    At first this request for ammunition for “training” purposes at a DHS Federal Law Enforcement Training Center seems somewhat customary but when you factor in the hundreds of millions of .40 caliber rounds, bullet proof checkpoints, and literal armored attack vehicles, a clear cut picture emerges.
    -
    Aspects of various domestic federal agencies are preparing for what they must believe will be a large scale confrontation with either a large influx of immigrants or the American people themselves.

Why is there a Satanic '666' Hexagram on the hollow tip rounds ordered by the DHS?

Fukushima Daiichi Site: Cesium-137 is 85 Times Greater Than at Chernobyl Accident !

  • The MSM is under reporting the Fukushima nuclear meltdown. I will not be going to Japan for many decades! See also:

    Fukushima Daiichi Site:  Cesium-137 is 85 times greater than at Chernobyl Accident! 
    by http://akiomatsumura.com/ 
    Read this article in Japanese.
    Japan’s former Ambassador to Switzerland, Mr. Mitsuhei Murata, was invited to speak at the Public Hearing of the Budgetary Committee of the House of Councilors on March 22, 2012, on the Fukushima nuclear power plants accident. Before the Committee, Ambassador Murata strongly stated that if the crippled building of reactor unit 4—with 1,535 fuel rods in the spent fuel pool 100 feet (30 meters) above the ground—collapses, not only will it cause a shutdown of all six reactors but will also affect the common spent fuel pool containing 6,375 fuel rods, located some 50 meters from reactor 4.
    -
    In both cases the radioactive rods are not protected by a containment vessel; dangerously, they are open to the air. This would certainly cause a global catastrophe like we have never before experienced. He stressed that the responsibility of Japan to the rest of the world is immeasurable. Such a catastrophe would affect us all for centuries. Ambassador Murata informed us that the total numbers of the spent fuel rods at the Fukushima Daiichi site excluding the rods in the pressure vessel is 11,421 (396 +615 +566 +1,535 +994 +940 +6375).
    -
    I asked top spent-fuel pools expert Mr. Robert Alvarez, former Senior Policy Adviser to the Secretary and Deputy Assistant Secretary for National Security and the Environment at the U.S. Department of Energy, for an explanation of the potential impact of the 11,421 rods. I received an astounding response from Mr. Alvarez [updated 4/5/12]:
    -
    In recent times, more information about the spent fuel situation at the Fukushima-Dai-Ichi site has become known.  It is my understanding that of the 1,532 spent fuel assemblies in reactor No. 304 assemblies are fresh and unirradiated. This then leaves 1,231 irradiated spent fuel rods in pool No. 4, which contain roughly 37 million curies (~1.4E+18 Becquerel) of long-lived radioactivity.  The No. 4 pool is about 100 feet above ground, is structurally damaged and is exposed to the open elements. If an earthquake or other event were to cause this pool to drain this could result in a catastrophic radiological fire involving nearly 10 times the amount of Cs-137 released by the Chernobyl accident.
    -
    The infrastructure to safely remove this material was destroyed as it was at the other three reactors.  Spent reactor fuel cannot be simply lifted into the air by a crane as if it were routine cargo.  In order to prevent severe radiation exposures, fires and possible explosions, it must be transferred at all times in water and heavily shielded structures into dry casks.. As this has never been done before, the removal of the spent fuel from the pools at the damaged Fukushima-Dai-Ichi reactors will require a major and time-consuming re-construction effort and will be charting in unknown waters. Despite the enormous destruction cased at the Da–Ichi site, dry casks holding a smaller amount of spent fuel  appear to be unscathed.
    -
    Based on U.S. Energy Department data, assuming a total of 11,138 spent fuel assemblies are being stored at the Dai-Ichi site, nearly all, which is in pools. They contain roughly 336 million curies (~1.2 E+19 Bq) of long-lived radioactivity. About 134 million curies is Cesium-137 — roughly 85 times the amount of Cs-137 released at the Chernobyl accident as estimated by the U.S. National Council on Radiation Protection (NCRP). The total spent reactor fuel inventory at the Fukushima-Daichi site contains nearly half of  the total amount of Cs-137 estimated by the NCRP to have been released by all atmospheric nuclear weapons testing, Chernobyl, and world-wide reprocessing plants (~270 million curies or ~9.9 E+18 Becquerel).
    -
    It is important for the public to understand that reactors that have been operating for decades, such as those at the Fukushima-Dai-Ichi site have generated some of the largest concentrations of radioactivity on the planet.
    -
    Many of our readers might find it difficult to appreciate the actual meaning of the figure, yet we can grasp what 85 times more Cesium-137 than the Chernobyl would mean. It would destroy the world environment and our civilization. This is not rocket science, nor does it connect to the pugilistic debate over nuclear power plants. This is an issue of human survival.
    -
    There was a Nuclear Security Summit Conference in Seoul on March 26 and 27, and Ambassador Murata and I made a concerted effort to find someone to inform the participants from 54 nations of the potential global catastrophe of reactor unit 4. We asked several participants to share the idea of an Independent Assessment team comprised of a broad group of international experts to deal with this urgent issue.
    -
    I would like to introduce Ambassador Murata’s letter to the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to convey this urgent message and also his letter to Japan’s Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda for Japanese readers. He emphasized in the statement that we should bring human wisdom to tackle this unprecedented challenge.

Günter Grass: What Must Be Said ! Zionist Israel is The Nuclear Threat To World Peace!

  • Günter Grass: 
    What must be said
    Why have I been silent, silent for so long?,
    Our generals have gamed it out,
    Confident the west will survive.
    We people have not even been considered.
    What is this right to “preventive war”?
    A war that could erase the Iranian people.
    Dominated by it’s neighbor, pulsing with righteousness
    Smug in the fact that it is they, not Iran,
    Who have the Bomb.
    Why have I so far avoided to identify Israel by it’s name?,
    Israel and it’s ever increasing nuclear arsenal,
    Beyond reproach, Uncontrolled, uninspected.
    We all know these things
    Yet we all remain silent, fearful of being labeled:
    anti-Semitic
    hateful
    worse
    Considering Germany’s past these labels stick
    So we call is “business”, “reparation” take your pick,
    As we deliver yet another submarine.
    As we provide to Israel the means to deliver annihilation.
    I say what must be said.
    Why did I stay silent until now?
    Because I’m German, of course.
    I’m tainted by a stain I cannot wash out
    I’m silent because I want so badly to make it right
    To put my sins in the past and leave them silently there.
    Why did I wait to say it until now?
    And write these words with the last of my ink?
    Declaring that Israel threatens world peace?
    Because it is true and it must be said,
    Tomorrow will be too late.
    We Germans now carry a new burden of sin on our shoulders
    Through the weapons we have sold
    We are helping to carry out this foreseeable tragedy
    No excuse will remove our stain of complicity.
    It must be said. I won’t be silent I’ve had enough of the hypocrisy;
    Please shed the silence with me,
    The consequences are all too predictable.
    It’s time to demand free and permanent control of
    BOTH Israel’s nuclear arsenal
    AND Iran’s nuclear facilities enforced with international supervision.
    It’s the only way, in a land convulsed with insanity,
    Israelis, Palestinians, everybody, will survive.
    And we too, will survive.

Spain Bond Yields Jump Above 6%, Raising Bailout Fears!

  • Spain bond yields jump above 6%, raising bailout fears! 
    by http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/ 
    The cost of borrowing for Spain has jumped above 6%, raising again the prospect of a bailout. The yield on Spain’s 10-year bonds reached 6.1%, ahead of auctions of debt on Tuesday and Thursday that could be increasingly expensive for Spain. The nation’s cost of borrowing has been rising steadily over the past four months.
    -
    Investors have been worried by data showing Spain’s banks are entirely dependent on emergency ECB loans. The yield suggests that if Spain wanted to borrow for 10 years today, it would pay more than 6%. In comparison, the yield on 10-year bonds from Germany, the eurozone’s strongest economy, is 1.73%.
    -
    Recession
    Spain is suffering from a deep economic slump brought about by a bust in its property and construction markets. Unemployment is the highest in Europe, with a record 4.75 million out of work. Half of Spain’s under-25s are unemployed.
    -
    The Bank of Spain said recently that the county’s economy contracted in the first quarter of the year – but it did not say by how much. The economy shrank by 0.3% in the three months to December, so this additional contraction implies that Spain’s economy is in recession.
    -
    The country’s economy minister said on Monday that in the first three months of the year the country had probably contracted by as much as the last quarter of 2011 again, but added this was actually better than expected.
    -
    “If you had asked me two months ago, I would have expected the first quarter of 2012 to be much worse than the last quarter of last year,” Luis de Guindos told the El Mundo newspaper. “But that’s not going to be the case.”

World Economy Still On Life Support !

  • The problem with a debt based economic system is that eventually the debts come due and payment must be made. This will contract the economy. The fact of the matter is: the world economy is over burdened by an insurmountable mountain of debts. The idea of creating even more debts and creating even more money out of thin air to buy these debts will not work. The problem gets even larger. Eventually, the piper has to be paid. A global economic, financial and monetary collapse is on the horizon.

    Still On Life Support! 
    By Michael Panzner, http://www.dailymarkets.com/ 
    A Financial Times report, “World Economy Still on Life Support,” pours more cold water on the notion that conditions are returning to “normal.” The world economy “remains on life support” from central banks and has deteriorated since last autumn, the latest Brookings Institution-Financial Times tracking index shows, despite some recent signs of stabilisation.
    -
    Economic weakness extends across the Group of 20 leading economies, according to the TIGER (Tracking Indices for the Global Economic Recovery) index, but advanced economies have deteriorated more than developing countries.
    …
    Although financial markets recovered significantly in the first quarter of the year as investors welcomed the European Central Bank’s massive injection of liquidity into the eurozone’s banks, the outlook for growth and jobs has become more precarious almost everywhere except in the US.
    -
    Professor Eswar Prasad of the Brookings Institution said: “The global economic recovery is still sputtering due to a lack of robust demand, policy tools that are stretched to their limits and unable to muster much traction, and enormous risks posed by weak financial systems and political uncertainty.”
    -
    No doubt highly-paid pseudo-analysts and the usual contingent of permabulls will zero in on the claim, noted above and later in the article, that the U.S. is faring better in relative terms than the rest of the world.
    -
    But they’ll probably forget to mention two things: 1) our economy also remains on substantial life support from the Fed (if not, why have they kept interest rates near zero and allowed their holdings of securities to balloon to nearly $3 trillion?); and, 2) a great many of the export markets that helped keep U.S. businesses afloat (in the face of weak domestic demand) are likely to be hit by recession in Europe, slowing growth in China, Europe, and weakening demand everywhere else.
    -
    I know, I know. I just need to be a bit more positive — right?

Bernanke And Germany Wake Up To a Shit Storm!

  • No amount of money printing can solve the sovereign debt crisis. You cannot solve a solvency problem with massive injections of liquidity. It is like a blood transfusion for a heart that has stopped beating. Practically, all western banks are bankrupt. The Illuminists know this. They are simply buying time, and enabling their Illuminist banks to further financially rape the sheeple before pulling the plug. All the bankster debts are being dumped onto the sheeple.
    -
    Bernanke and Germany Wake Up to a Merda(Shit) Storm! 
    Courtesy of Russ Winter of Winter Watch at Wall Street Examiner
    The realization has been shockingly slow, but the lamestream media, such as Bloomberg, is picking up on how toxic the LTRO program has been to the merda-storm countries’ banks. Today, they ran a clip on how Spanish banks borrowed LTRO funds to speculate on Spanish sovereigns at prices that are now well underwater. That’s what happens when the artificial buying frenzy has come and gone. The fact that the Spanish 5-year CDS hit 500 basis points for first time, up 23 basis points, and Italy CDS rose 15 basis points on the day to 433 basis points, signals that those countries will not be able to absorb the blow of all their bankster guarantees, let alone their normal sovereign obligations.
    -
    Italian banks took €354 billion in LTRO cash and Spanish banks took around €300 billion. Portuguese bank dependence on ECB borrowing rose to a record €56 billion. So in total, these countries’ insolvent banks have now placed over €710 billion in merda collateral with the ECB. The fact that these infected banks are halting trading about every other day should also be transmitting in spades the signal that the ECB literally owns said banks and inherits their losses and their merda collateral, which has been pawned off.
    -
    There are really only four European countries that backstop all of the ECB, EFSF, etc., etc., schemes. Unfortunately, two of them are the merda-storm countries of Spain and Italy. That means all of the losses that would normally be distributed across a number of larger nations will now fall on the remaining two: Germany and France. I’ve been writing that key European countries are about to toss out bankster agents and proponents of even more austerity in soon-to-be-held elections. May 6 is the key date in Greece and Germany. France’s first round of elections begins on April 22.
    -
    Tying all the loose ends together is Wizard of Oz Ben Bernanke’s sudden attention to words like “shadow banking,” “collateral” and “vulnerabilities” in his speeches. For those with an elementary ability to connect the dots, this suggests that collateral in general — including the merda-storm variety — has been the subject of some late-night calls during Weekend at Benny’s.
    -
    And then there’s Ben, the master of obfuscation and butt covering. When this crisis soon hits, Ben will attempt to disassociate the bad collateral as a European problem and nothing with which he would ever be involved. He will argue that owning several trillion in 1-2%-yielding long-duration sovereigns in a country (the US) with a 105% debt to GDP is nothing like what the ECB has done. A few years ago, a trillion-dollar portfolio of housing mortgages would’ve been considered a big deal. Ben should call this European ploy “nossa merda nao fede,” which is Portuguese for “our shit doesn’t stink.” Like chickens with their bungholes ripped out, money will go into a frenzy. From the annals of history, here are some of Brilliant Ben’s priceless insights. Only in the most corrupt systems would someone like this be treated like a demi-god, let alone still have a job.

Civitas Research Group: Devalue The UK Pound by 25%! Pound Strength Is ‘Crippling’ Britain’s Recovery!

HMS Britain, the UK Pound is sinking .. down .. down ... down ...

  • All major fiat currencies: USD, EUR, JPY, UKP …. are a CONfidence Job backed by NOTHING! The sheeple will eventually wake up to this fact and run to gold ! Gold is real money and has been so for 5000+ years. By adopting competitive devaluations, countries are fomenting the currencies war. Eventually, all fiat currencies will go down the toilet bowl of currency debasement ie. become worthless!

    Pound Strength Is ‘Crippling’ Britain’s Recovery! 
    By Svenja O’Donnell, http://www.bloomberg.com/ 
    Britain’s exchange rate is“crippling” the economic recovery, and devaluing the pound by as much as 25 percent could push growth back to an annual 4 percent, research group Civitas said.
    -
    The pound’s “significant” drop since 2008 hasn’t been enough to make U.K. exports competitive on world markets, and a future decline in the currency is inevitable, according to John Mills, the author of the Civitas report published in London today. A devaluation of as much as 15 percent would balance the U.K.’s trade deficit, he said.
    -
    “The exchange-rate policy which we have pursued for decades has made it much more expensive to run most manufacturing operations here than in other parts of the world,” Mills said. “Getting the exchange rate down is a matter on which, in the end, we will have no choice.”
    -
    Data yesterday showed the U.K. trade deficit widened to the most in three months in February as exports of cars and heavy machinery fell, especially to the U.S., China and Russia. British manufacturing has become less competitive as some Asian countries devalued their currencies, boosting their competitiveness and hurting the U.K. economy, Mills said.

Gerald Celente: It’s Absolutely Terrifying Where Society Is Headed !

  • Celente – It’s Absolutely Terrifying Where Society Is Headed ! 
    by www.kingworldnews.com
    KWN is giving readers and listeners globally an exclusive sneak peak into Gerald Celente’s Spring Trends Journal.  Gerald Celente is founder of Trends Research, and the man many consider to be the top trends forecaster in the world.  Celente also discussed some extraordinary firsthand accounts from the Nazi era during World War II.  Here is what Celente had to say:  “In this Trends Journal we outline, step by step, how our Constitutional rights are being abrogated.  (George) Orwell would have loved this one.  What has happened is the Attorney General has just instituted new guidelines.”
    …..
    “They are now allowed to be listening to what we are saying right now, listen on your cell phone, watch every stroke of the keyboard that you make.  Everything that you say and do, they are now watching you, and have the right to do so under these new guidelines for five years, even if you are no threat at all.
    -
    What they have done is they’ve put in these algorithms to determine whether or not you are a current or a future potential threat to the United States of America.  If you had Big Brother under Orwell, you have Big Brother now and they are watching you.
