While waiting for your ship to come in use these discounts.

 

I have used these myself, I especially like the free drink at Wendy’s.

Thank you Dr. Alexis,  site:http://www.alexisabramson.com/senior-discounts-for-all/

Hi everyone!  I received this “senior discount” list from a friend and thought that it might be of some $$$ value.  Keep this list – – – and send a copy to your senior friends and relatives.  She sent me an email saying:

“As I was waiting in line behind an older gentleman at Wendy’s recently, I heard him ask for his senior discount. The girl at the register apologized and charged him less. When I asked the man what the discount was, he told me that seniors (people) over age 55 gets 10% off everything on the menu, every day.  This incident prompted me to do some research, and I came across a list of restaurants, supermarkets, department stores, travel deals and other types of offers giving various discounts with different age requirements. I was actually surprised to see how many there are and how some of them start at the young age of 50.”

This list may not only be useful for you, but for your friends and family, too.

YOU must ASK for your discount!

Brazilian Inventors Produce Overunity Energy Generator Called ‘Earth Electron Captor’

 

Two Brazilian inventors, Nilson Barbosa and Cleriston Leal, claim to have invented a free energy device and are now selling this device to the public. The device is called the Earth Electron Captor Generator, or “GERADOR CAPTOR DE ELÉTRONS DA TERRA” in Portuguese.

They are presently only offering the device to people who live in the city of Imperatriz. However, they are working to license production with several manufacturing firms that will allow for online sales. Their website says they will update their page with distributor information when it becomes available. The rumor mill says global distributors will come online in January of 2014.

The device requires a small amount of initial input power to initiate the movement of a sensor, which then produces over-unity power. The device is small, which means it can be used to power vehicles, homes, and businesses.  The site claims the input power needed to run it is around 2% of its output power.…..snip…..

Banking in America

 
Banking in America
 
Banker Admits in Court that Banks Actually Loan Nothing
 
This is an actual court transcript – an interview with a banker, who is under oath, about a foreclosure. The banker was placed on the witness stand and sworn in. The plaintiff’s (borrower’s) attorney asked the banker the routine questions concerning the banker’s education and background. Then this conversation followed:
The attorney asked the banker, “What is court exhibit A?” The banker responded by saying, “This is a promissory note.” The attorney then asked, “Is there an agreement between Mr. Smith (borrower) and the defendant?” The banker said, “Yes.” The attorney asked, “Do you believe the agreement includes a lender and a borrower?” The banker responded by saying, “Yes, I am the lender and Mr. Smith is the borrower.” The attorney asked, “What do you believe the agreement is?” The banker quickly responded, saying, ” We have the borrower sign the note and we give the borrower a check.” The attorney asked, “Does this agreement show the words borrower, lender, loan, interest, credit, or money within the agreement?” The banker responded by saying, “Sure it does.” The attorney asked, `”According to your knowledge, who was to loan what to whom according to the written agreement?” The banker responded by saying, “The lender loaned the borrower a $50,000 check. The borrower got the money and the house and has not repaid the money.” The attorney noted that the banker never said that the bank received the promissory note as a loan from the borrower to the bank. He asked, “Do you believe an ordinary person can use ordinary terms and understand this written agreement?” The banker said, “Yes.” The attorney asked, “Do you believe you or your company legally own the promissory note and have the right to enforce payment from the borrower?” The banker said, “Absolutely we own it and legally have the right to collect the money.” The attorney asked, “Does the $50,000 note have actual cash value of $50,000? Actual cash value means the promissory note can be sold for $50,000 cash in the ordinary course of business.” The banker said, “Yes.” The attorney asked, “According to your understanding of the alleged agreement, how much actual cash value must the bank loan to the borrower in order for the bank to legally fulfill the agreement and legally own the promissory note?” The banker said, “$50,000.” The attorney asked, “According to your belief, if the borrower signs the promissory note and the bank refuses to loan the borrower $50,000 actual cash value, would the bank or borrower own the promissory note?” The banker said, “The borrower would own it if the bank did not loan the money. The bank gave the borrower a check and that is how the borrower financed the purchase of the house.” The attorney asked, “Do you believe that the borrower agreed to provide the bank with $50,000 of actual cash value which was used to fund the $50,000 bank loan check back to the same borrower, and then agreed to pay the bank back $50,000 plus interest?” The banker said, “No. If the borrower provided the $50,000 to fund the check, there was no money loaned by the bank so the bank could not charge interest on money it never loaned.” The attorney asked, “If this happened, in your opinion would the bank legally own the promissory note and be able to force Mr. Smith to pay the bank interest and principal payments?” The banker said, “I am not a lawyer so I cannot answer legal questions.” The attorney asked, “Is it bank policy that when a borrower receives a $50,000 bank loan, the bank receives $50,000 actual cash value from the borrower, that this gives value to a $50,000 bank loan check, and this check is returned to the borrower as a bank loan which the borrower must repay?” The banker said, “I do not know the bookkeeping entries.” The attorney said, “I am asking you if this is the policy.” The banker responded, “I do not recall.” The attorney again asked, “Do you believe the agreement between Mr. Smith and the bank is that Mr. Smith provides the bank with actual cash value of $50,000 which is used to fund a $50,000 bank loan check back to himself which he is then required to repay plus interest back to the same bank?” The banker said, ” I am not a lawyer.” The attorney said, “Did you not say earlier that an ordinary person can use ordinary terms and understand this written agreement?” The banker said, “Yes.” The attorney handed the bank loan agreement marked “Exhibit B” to the banker. He said, “Is there anything in this agreement showing the borrower had knowledge or showing where the borrower gave the bank authorization or permission for the bank to receive $50,000 actual cash value from him and to use this to fund the $50,000 bank loan check which obligates him to give the bank back $50,000 plus interest?” The banker said, “No.” The lawyer asked, “If the borrower provided the bank with actual cash value of $50,000 which the bank used to fund the $50,000 check and returned the check back to the alleged borrower as a bank loan check, in your opinion, did the bank loan $50,000 to the borrower?” The banker said, “No.” The attorney asked, “If a bank customer provides actual cash value of $50,000 to the bank and the bank returns $50,000 actual cash value back to the same customer, is this a swap or exchange of $50,000 for $50,000.” The banker replied, “Yes.” The attorney asked, “Did the agreement call for an exchange of $50,000 swapped for $50,000, or did it call for a $50,000 loan?” The banker said, “A $50,000 loan.” The attorney asked, “Is the bank to follow the Federal Reserve Bank policies and procedures when banks grant loans.” The banker said, “Yes.” The attorney asked, “What are the standard bank bookkeeping entries for granting loans according to the Federal Reserve Bank policies and procedures?” The attorney handed the banker FED publication Modern Money Mechanics, marked “Exhibit C”. The banker said, “The promissory note is recorded as a bank asset and a new matching deposit (liability) is created. Then we issue a check from the new deposit back to the borrower.” The attorney asked, “Is this not a swap or exchange of $50,000 for $50,000?” The banker said, “This is the standard way to do it.”

FACT CHECK #98 An Evening With A White Hat

 

Greetings! 

We move from FC#97 into new territory today.

I once again had the pleasure to speak to our WH contact this evening. He was very generous with his time, as always, his responsibilities and charges notwithstanding. He took some time to answer some questions, and a summary of those answers will follow.

First, some introductory remarks.

I apologize for not closing the last thread and moving on faster. With over 600 comments, it was a real effort to moderate. I thank you all for largely conducting yourselves in an adult manner. Please continue to do so and set a good example to the world-wide readership, which includes some very key people, including 80 law firms and some 1200-1500 people working on things for which you all have an interest in.  

In earlier times we spent a lot of our resources taking various “intel providers” and “awareness bloggers” to task for their shoddy work in announcing “deliveries and RV’s” when no such things had occurred, and for making outlandish, unsubstantiated claims about the potential rates of anticipated revaluations of two currencies, with amazing alacrity. Our reasons were simple – we wanted people to have the truth about these activities since so many of you are staking your future on them. For too long, people have been making decisions on less than substantiated knowledge of just what they should realistically expect. Well, we have compiled what we feel is a pretty solid collection of data from those in the trenches and it has been our pleasure to bring this information to you, when possible. 

Of course, not everything that is known is shared. The sensitive nature of this event is such that this blog is carefully watched by some pretty powerful groups which I do not need to name. As such, please remember this, and do not think that we are lax with our questions since not everything you want to know can be asked, and further, not everything you want to ask, is known. Those of you who are staking your future on events we are monitoring would not appreciate if we posted something that created ripples across the Internet and caused needless work for those working on this matter, or cause delays. Good heavens! I would promptly drive to the nearest Benihana’s and  pay one of their chef’s to effect ritual seppuku on me, rather than cause delays because of irresponsible behavior with this effort to inform. Such has inadvertently happened once. It must never, never happen again.

We call this association an “auxiliary” for a reason. This separates us from the front line troops working on what has been described as the largest financial transaction in the history of the word. I sometimes indulge my passion for Roman History by reading accounts of auxiliary troops being called up to the front lines when they were in danger of faltering. Auxiliaries were often times non-citizens, and such a distinction then, as now, is important to understand since we are not White Hats, and are not on the front lines. The front lines are manned by exceptional people with the talents, skills and resources to complete their tasks. For that, we owe them our respect and to be responsible with what we are allowed to know at this time. They will never have to call us up to plug holes in the lines, and thank goodness for that, since many, if not all of us, do not possess credentials to work at such extreme levels of international finance and law.      

With the foregoing  in mind, I will proceed. 

1) Are we are still on for 2014?

This evening, I was not told otherwise at any point in our conversation. Keep that in mind as the next item is made clear.

2) Is the following, issued by the IMF, tied in with the World Global Settlements, and indicative of a delay into 2015?

“We deeply regret that the IMF quota and governance reforms agreed to in 2010 have not yet become effective and that the 15th General Review of Quotas was not completed by January 2014.”

“In April, we will take stock of progress towards…completing the 15th General Review of Quotas by January 2015.”

From the Communiqué – Meeting of Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors, Sydney, 22-23 February 2014

The answer to the forgoing concern is that the statement issued by the IMF is not related to/indicative of WGS progress. It is an altogether separate matter.  Keep this in mind as other bloggers continue to update you with respect to IMF/World Bank maneuvering and descriptions of currency resets set against a perceived relationship to IMF quotas regulations. 

3) What are the 17 other currencies set to re-value along with the USD, Iraqi Dinar and the Dong?

Such information is not known, and won’t be made available. Beware of any blog that lists such currencies, and do NOT assume they will be correct. Remember, currency speculation is very, very high risk business. That is no different for those with dinar and dong. More on this later.

4) Does the recent acquisition by Washington Federal of several B of A branches have anything to do with the WGS/GCR?

    The answer is, no. Just what such purchases signify, if anything separate from the purchases itself, is not entirely known.

5) Is this business in the Ukraine some kind of mysterious maneuver to signal some kind of event related to the WGS/GCR?  

     The answer is, and I quote: “It’s just a fart in the wind”. In other words, it is completely dwarfed by the events that are to come once the WGS/GCR is set loose.  

6) What is the lower range of a possible dinar rate?

    It was given as $1.00. It could possibly come in at $1.00 to no higher than $3.50. Take note. That is an estimate. Nobody knows, not even those in the trenches, what the rate will be on day one.    This means it could be lower than even the lower estimate. Please, remember: Just cash in. Do NOT wait for a higher rate the next day. Act quickly.

7) This leads us to comments from “john” at OWoN blog, which you are all asking about. This is not an easy task to clarify since it will require some reality adjustments for many of the dinar buyers who have been cast under the spell of many dinar Svengali who speak of $32 rates and million dollar paydays for all. You must NOT be swayed by such persons who might beguile you into  rash actions  such as cashing in junior’s college money or selling your gold fillings for more dinar.

John has a very direct and blunt style of writing that rubs many the wrong way. He is described as a good person, with impressive credentials and is not in the business of misleading or spreading false information. His recent comments were as follows:     

Now, to help a few of you re first the Dongs and some Dinars etc.

The major Private Deal is approved and ready to go BUT, because it has overlapping impacts on the RV’s, EVERYTHING is being delayed on RV releases and strategies.

So, tough as it is for many, it means waiting time. More time, more stress, but its moving. When- Who knows? Who cares? Its a Free Lunch!

Neither Dongs nor Dinars owe anyone a Dime! Its All this IS unplanned and UNEARNED INCOME!!, Its NOT a Windfall or a Blessing. Such mind boggling stupidity from such Cretins is sad. Its a gamble and GOOD LUCK,but stop whining about my RIGHTS, like the world owes you? Its just a Gamble.You win some, you lose some.

The world owes no one anything. Lives wasted saving nothing left the Chumps with nothing. Selection of the species. No Rainy Day Money sorts the Smart from the Losers.

Some will get a major boost, but not all. Enough, Just hope your one. We see enough of some parties forever blogging about their rights and how the system is stopping them. What crap! Funny how America was built on No Welfare. As was Europe. Workers work, and work it out. Wasters whinge, its never them. Easy come will still become easy go for many even after being paid.The ones I feel for are those in genuine need who never did get a break. They deserve it most. We need to give their kids a chance. Start by educating the kids. Infrastructure and re thinking communities. Help the sick and old, and create sustainable jobs for the willing workers. Then waste the wasters! Welfare WILL end! Sooner than you think. With a bang! In the UK your out Butt first after a finite Welfare period. You get money with a bridge of help only for months, but not Welfare as income for life. And we are making it tougher. Whats coming will sort them. People have no idea what tracking. The Global gravy train is ending. For the won’t work crowd life on the streets will sort them.

For the lucky ones, hang onto it tight. It will be all you have for many Beneficiaries. Again, PLEASE do nothing after cashing but place it safe and wait. Think out your new moves with care. Don’t let Losers or Cling On’s near you!

For some it IS coming,but for many not. At least some will get through. It takes what it takes. There will NOT be a mass handout for all. It will be selective. Vast overprinting will not get bailed. Nor should it. Money is, and will be- finite! But for some, Yes, its now coming. We can say no more. Nor will we elaborate. You gamble, YOU do the leg work.

Now, just what is he saying here? In his own well-meaning, yet semi-gauche way, he is saying: CASH IN QUICKLY, because not all of you will get what you may think simply because the numbers are not there to sustain $3.50 forever, if even at all. Over-printing of the dinar means that there are too many pigs for the teats.  Just what the rate will be is NOT KNOWN, so if that is so, high rate predictions by dinar oracles are by no means assured, no matter what rates they were told by “sources”.

Some of you may say, “But we were told this was going to be a windfall!” Yes, those are the words used to describe what may come. But, again, think it over. One, nobody knows the rates, and, two, if the rate comes in at $.10, it still represents a HUGE move from its present value, yet may render it necessary for many of you to retain your current standard of living because the 1M in dinar you have will not allow you to retire, and after tax, even less so.

Further, if we see a rate of $1.00, it may not stay there long. In fact, it was said that you might consider “getting sick” and leaving your workplace to cash in as soon as you hear about this, if necessary. It’s that critical that you act timely.

Bottom line? John is simply telling you the truth from his perspective, which is accurate. It is the Delphian dinar cult’s that are selling dreams that are not backed up by anything of import, or are engaging in all manner of exaggerations to seem wise or expert. John detests the manner in which the dinar is being sold. People often buy dinar, then join a blog and attend calls to get “intel” where they are fed information from “sources”. It is this process he scorns as it is not based in reality.

Don’t be fooled, and plan your affairs for any rate that may come in. Don’t let greed get the better of you. The “lucky ones” will be those who act fast. Some will get there first and get what the rate is on that day, high or low. Those that delay, well, I don’t need to elaborate on what could await them. 

Remember: JUST CASH IN. No matter what is said from now on, by John, or anyone – JUST CASH IN. That is ALL you can do. CASH IT IN.

7) Does the same admonition apply to the Dong? 

    Yes. Don’t delay.

To close this part of the FC, keep in mind that John holds the false prophets in severe contempt, and he can do so because he lives in rare air and sees the real numbers. We cannot fault him for that, his abrasive reportage notwithstanding. We have also criticized the guru’s and so have the White Hats, yet not as harshly as he does. He is keenly aware of the lives that have been lost in Iraq, on both sides, and sees this for what he feels it is – blood money. Perhaps we should remember that, and when the numbers come in, think of those who were lost, and do some good by supporting any cause you can think of to ease the suffering of those who were caught up in the unfortunate events that began in 2003.

Be smart. JUST CASH IN, and do some good with it.

I know the above stands in stark contrast with the Dinar Lama’s, but there is no easy way to impart a hard truth.

8) Are you aware of  Karen Hudes, the BIS whistle-blower, and if so, what can you share about your knowledge of her work?  

    The answer was: She could be very dangerous to the cabal, and knows what she is saying.

Nothing more was offered with respect to her work.

  9) Has the “Hong Kong” meeting happened?

       Sorry, but I didn’t bring it up. We were told last time that it was off limits to discuss further, and once I am told such, I will not press the issue. It’s for a good reason.

Read the last sentence in the former paragraph again before you read further. 

Lastly, I am planning on contacting another key person in this affair very soon. I hope to bring you more information, if possible and if necessary.

Once again, thank you all, and thanks to our White Hat contact, and all the White Hats and their staff for continuing to work for good on behalf of all nations.

Please continue to be patient as we await what will be the key event of the century.

SDR’s and the New Bretton Woods – Part Eight

 

It is so well explained here that the U.S. politicians and bankers would never admit that they are the ones that want to kill the dollar, so the Ukraine fiasco will provide the necessary cover story to the corrupt TV and the press for all the world to see .

The Dawn of Macroeconomic Stability

By JC Collins

Dawn Protest Ukraine

We are working with Congress to approve the 2010 IMF quota legislation, which would support the IMF’s capacity to lend additional resources to Ukraine, while also helping to preserve continued U.S. leadership within this important institution,”

– U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, Mar 4, 2014.

An attempt to announce sanctions would end in a crash for the financial system of the United States, which would cause the end of the domination of the United States in the global financial system.”

– Russian Senior Adviser Sergei Glazyev, Mar 4, 2014.

We are also discussing with all our international partners–bilateral and multilateral–how best to help Ukraine at this critical moment in its history.”

– Managing Director Christine Lagarde, I.M.F., Feb 27, 2014.

 

This part of the series is important because it contains valuable and timely information that both confirms and builds on the concepts as presented on this site.  Through seven parts we have defined the structure of the emerging multilateral SDR financial system and how it will work in theory.

Now we begin the transition from theory to practice.

 I would suggest that readers first ensure they have a good understanding of the main themes and components of the other seven parts.  It will make part eight that much more rewarding to read and understand.  All seven links are included at the end of this post.

Ukraine is being fought over by the United States and Russia.  Both countries desire to give the Ukraine a bail-out loan denominated in Special Drawing Rights.  The International Monetary Fund is patiently waiting for an agreement to be made so that the process of debt restructuring and currency allocation can continue.  The winner will have control over the resources and energy industry of the Ukraine and all of Europe’s natural gas supply.  This will help their SDR composition in the new system.

The same process is unfolding in Syria and other regions.  There is not much negotiating room left though as the clock ticks closer to the time where its either collapse or consolidation.  Ukraine, like Syria, is a vital chess piece in this grand game of strategy and resource allocation.

Today Senior Russian Advisor Sergei Glazyev stated that they would sell all their U.S. debt if sanctions were put in place against them.  On top of that he suggested that Russia would drop the dollar in its international trade.  This clearly states that the U.S. dollar would no longer be considered the reserve currency by Russia.

Considering China has made it known that they side with Russia over the Ukraine situation, it doesn’t take a stretch of the imagination to see China also selling their U.S. debt.

Though I do not think this will happen.  These threats are keeping with the Hegelian Dialectic pattern which we have been discussing.  The sovereign debt crisis and currency crisis around the world will be used as the pretext to shift the reserve currency status away from the dollar and to the SDR.  Problem, reaction, solution.  See SDR’s and the New Bretton Woods Part Three – The Real Global Currency Reset.

As the major monetary changes take place we can watch for changes to the dollar and its reserve status as a sign of the coming integration to a multilateral system and reset of the world’s currency and commodity values as they unpeg from the American dollar and peg to the SDR.  See The New Exchange Rate System.

The end goal is the SDR as the multilateral reserve currency and sovereign debt consolidated or restructured through the International Monetary Fund.  So Russia threatening the dollar fits perfectly within the script being presented.

In order for the SDR’s status to be expanded the United States Congress must pass the IMF 2010 Code of Reforms, also known as Governance Reforms and Quota Reforms.  These reforms allow the Executive Board of the IMF to be restructured to more accurately reflect the economic reality of the world today.  The emerging markets, mainly represented by the BRICS countries, Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, require equal power within the IMF.

It is collectively agreed that the dollar is now causing all the economic problems in the world.  With equal representation on the Executive Board it will be only a matter of time before the dollar is pushed aside and the SDR made the multilateral reserve currency.

This will lead to macroeconomic stability through centralization.  This macro centralization will be off-set by regional and local decentralization with a focus on micro economic growth and resource commodity production.  Some of these micro regulations will put into place self-limiting legislation to prevent further transfer of wealth from the large disorganized masses by the small rent seeking elite.  See What Are Conspiracy Theories?.

These Code of Reforms were agreed to by all G20 countries in 2010 but the United States Congress has refused to pass the required legislation to support the changes.  Last month the G20 met again in Australia and once more pushed Congress to pass the legislation by April of this year.

This is where we come back to the crisis in the Ukraine.

Today, top Republican Senator in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Bob Corker, who is writing the legislation for Ukrainian aid said that the IMF Code of Reforms were “on the table”.

The U.S. Treasury itself is asking Congress to connect the Code of Reforms with the Ukrainian package.

On top of that, the Obama administration snuck the Reforms into its proposed 2015 budget which was released today.  This budget begins in October of this year.

And the G20 all want the reforms implemented by April.

The Ukrainian crisis is the textbook example of the process which we have been learning about here.  Expect more of the same as the system shifts further away from the dollar and closer to the SDR composition.  America could never openly admit that they “killed the dollar”.  It will have to be hidden within a series of events which create a form of plausible deniability.

The pressure is on Congress to get the Reforms passed so implementation of the new SDR system can begin.  The transition from the old dollar system to the new SDR system has begun.  Ukraine unpegged their currency from the dollar last week.  Russia is now threatening the same.  China is not far behind.

The stage is set for the real life drama which we have been exploring.   – JC Collins

RARE FILM FROM 1932

 
Subject: RARE FILM FROM 1932
You would like to think this couldn’t happen again, but it could.  History, has a way of repeating itself. How many of you were aware of the march on  Washington in 1932? Would US troops attack its own people if ordered? You bet, see what they do to WW1 veterans, tanks tear gas, bayonets, fire. An interesting slice of history that I wanted to share. An eye opening Video, that few today, have ever seen.

Ukraine Is About Death Of The Dollar – Martial Law Coming Soon! (Videos)

Monday, March 3, 2014 11:56

By Susan Duclos

“Those wild and crazy Mayans put down their marker that the end of the world would occur on Dec. 21, 2012 — about two months from now. There is, of course, some small chance that they might be right. On the other hand, there is a very large probability that the real end of the world will occur around March 4, 2014.

The doomsday clock will ring then because the U.S. economy may fully crash around that date, which will, in turn, bring down all world economies and all hope of any recovery for the foreseeable future — certainly over the course of most of our lifetimes.” – Grady Means, October 2012

It is March 2014 and before detractors claim that March 4, 2014 is the predicted date, please note that in the quote it says “around that date” in the quote above, not predicting the actual date.

Which leads to an excellent article over at OmegaShock, who notes as I show in the first video below, that in 2011 and Obama official made it clear the goal was to “kill the dollar,” and just over a year ago, Doug Hagmann of the Hagmann and Hagmann Report also connected the dots about the killing of the US dollar.

Both those videos will be shown below mine so everyone can see how everything that is happening today was planned and orchestrated.

Before they ever started down this road, the US State Department and the alphabet agencies of North America and Europe knew that nothing of long term significance would occur in Kiev. They knew that any pro-EU coup would be temporary. They knew that Russia would move to solidify her presence in Crimea. They knew that far-right groups would muscle their way into this Ukrainian Revolution. They knew that Ukraine would be thrown into turmoil and cause further damage to an already damaged country. And… They knew that there would be no strategic gain to the EU or the US.

So, why did they do this?

Why did they invest several billion dollars in an activity that could only fail?

The answer is that it’s not going to fail because Ukraine is only a diversion – a misdirection. To quote Penn & Teller, it’s purpose is to lead attention away from a secret move. The next question is…

What is this ‘secret move’ that they do not want us to see?

 

The answer? 

Killing the US dollar… total, imminent, economic collapse.

All eyes are on Ukraine, the US destabilizing the Ukraine, Russia moving to protect their interests in the Crimea region and by the time all eyes start looking around again, the dollar will be dead, the economy near total collapse and Obama will have everything in place to declare martial law.

Watch all three videos and see if you agree.

From Doug Hagmann of Canada Free Press comes a chilling account of what’s in store for us if we continue to ignore the bare-faced warnings of the central power base..

Some might be surprised to learn that the fate of America’s economy has already been determined, verified and announced by the Obama White House. Yet, it has received scant attention from the corporate media. In 2011, economist Kyle Bass interviewed a senior member of the Obama administration about its planned solutions for fixing the US economy and trade deficit[ia].

Among the questions he asked was about U.S. exports and wages, but the question itself was not nearly as important as the response he received from this senior administration official. In fact, this single, seven word response clarifies everything, explains everything, and leaves little else to discuss: “We’re just going to kill

The New Exchange Rate System

M1 Money Supply and Inflation

By JC Collins

Dong to Dollar

Purchasing Power Parity and Arbitrage are two terms that everyone should make themselves aware off as the world’s economy moves closer toward a centralized SDR trade system through the International Monetary Fund with accounts balanced by the Bank for International Settlements.

Purchasing Power Parity is the balance between exchange rates when there is also balance in the domestic purchasing power of the currencies.

 

Arbitrage is taking advantage of the price imbalances between markets and profiting from the market differentials.

Arbitrage cannot exist alongside Purchasing Power Parity.

M1 money supply refers to physical currency as well as checking account deposits.

For your reference, M2 money is M1 money plus savings accounts and money market accounts.

And M3 money is M2 money plus large deposits and other long term large deposits, such as larger liquid assets as well as short term repurchase agreements.

Keep these terms in mind as we further define the structure and mechanisms of the emerging multilateral system.

As an extension to the SDR’s and the New Bretton Woods series, let us discuss a much talked about and confusing aspect of the system.  When the currencies of the world are released from their peg to the dollar and pegged to the SDR supra-sovereign currency which we have been reviewing, there will in fact be a new exchange rate structure.

What this structure will be has not yet been made available to the general population.  All the talk of specific exchange rates and timing of release of the rates are not founded in facts or accurate information.

And on the flip side of that there are those who are stating that a Global Currency Reset is a conspiracy theory.  To these people those that proclaim such a future “event” apparently do not understand the micro and macro of economic fundamentals or how exchange rates and money supply truly work.

Their argument appears very logical on the surface.  As a country increases its money supply through debt creation and currency printing, the value of that currency decreases.  More money in circulation means more devaluation of that currency, basic supply and demand principles.  So how can a currency revalue upward when there is so much of it in circulation?  Makes sense right?  Wrong.

If the key performance indicators (KPI) of any countries M1 money supply were that elementary, then we would live in a much simpler world.  We can make many examples of why this isn’t the case but none is more obvious than that of the U.S. dollar itself.

If more money in circulation meant a decrease in the value of that currency on the exchange rate market, then the dollar would be almost worthless today, much like the dong and other currencies.  More U.S. debt (money creation) has been added in the last 6 years than the entire history of the U.S. itself, from George Washington to George W. Bush.  Yet the dollar’s exchange rate has maintained itself within a small range of fluctuation.  The reason that the dollar has maintained this exchange rate over the years tells us that there are other KPI’s which need to be factored into the equation when measuring a countries exchange rate and inflation level, outside of direct manipulation of course.

Some of these indirect KPI’s are imports and exports.   And there is no direct relationship between M1 money supply increases and inflation.

Final_Shifted_M1_and_CPI

Since 1944 the U.S. dollar has been the reserve currency which means that international trade imbalances have been settled in dollars.  This forced other countries of the world to hold dollars which allowed the U.S. to export the majority of its inflation.

As the U.S. printed more money, expanding its M1 money supply, the inflation which should have settled domestically was in fact exported to the very same markets that were forced to hold a reserve of U.S. dollars in order to balance their trade accounts.

As we reviewed in “Why the Vietnamese Dong Will Reset”, the State Bank of Vietnam was indirectly forced into devaluing their currency in order to attract trade and also be a dumping ground for U.S. inflation as the Vietnamese people used the dollar instead of the dong in their everyday lives.

As the new centralized system of SDR allocation emerges between now and 2018 we will see less U.S. dollars in the foreign reserves of other countries.  As an example, in the last 5 years Vietnam has decreased their dollar holdings by almost 50% and at the same time have increased their gold holdings dramatically.  Interestingly enough, their SDR holdings also increased by a factor of more than 400%.

The question of what Vietnam will do with the trillions of dong that are now in circulation is a legitimate question.  When the exchange rate of the dong adjusts to reflect the economic reality within the country, these trillions of dong cannot be in circulation, as it would create an M1 money supply that is disproportionate to the actual economic weights used for the SDR composition.

Therein lays the solution to the problem.

Keeping with our pattern theme of transitions from micro to macro states, we start with the process of the dollar, the world’s reserve currency, being printed and exported to the central banks of the world to facilitate trade.  The inflation and exchange rate decreases that would be logically associated with this increase in the M1 money supply is hidden or sunk into the markets of the emerging economies.

As the world shifts towards the SDR system we will see a similar process unfold.  In essence, Vietnam will export their inflation (current M1 money supply) into the SDR bond system just like the United States has been exporting its inflation into emerging markets and countries like Vietnam through trade imbalances.  What we will see is Vietnam slowly begin to buy back the dong in circulation and re-capitalize it through the SDR bonds.

Once a predetermined level has been achieved the rest of the dong M1 money supply will remain in circulation and be pegged to the multilateral SDR and not the U.S. dollar.  In fact we are beginning to see this process unfold already in the numbers we presented above.  This slow trickle will eventually become a stampede out of dollars and into SDR’s.  It will be the same for every country.

The U.S. debt will also be rolled into SDR’s and factor into the overall economic weight of that country’s SDR composition.  This is where the substitution account we referenced in Part 6 of the SDR series becomes invaluable.  This substitution account will act as a transition market for dollars to SDR’s to ensure that current holders of U.S. debt do not see that asset value decrease dramatically as the system shifts.  China will utilize this substitution account just as much as the United States Treasury and Federal Reserve.

China will not be dumping dollars.  They will transition the dollar debt which they hold into SDR’s through this substitution account.  The one aspect that is holding the process up right now in the American Congress (2010 Code of Reforms) is how this dollar to SDR transition will factor into China’s overall SDR composition for the renminbi.

This is one of the hardest aspects of this new system to understand, which is why it is still being negotiated.  It would do us well to spend more time in the future exploring the different angles involved in the Great Consolidation aspect of the Global Currency Reset.  One cannot exist without the other.  It has been intentionally designed this way.

Most don’t know this, but the Syrian pound is already pegged to the SDR, and has been for about 5 years.  One can only speculate if this has something to do with the civil war in the country.

What some analysts don’t factor into their equations is how much the economic system of the world will change, and is changing, as we move towards the multilateral monetary system with all the currencies of the world pegged to the SDR.  For those who doubt the reality of this new system, the volume of information that has been available and is coming available would seem to prove its existence.

The new system will create Purchasing Power Parity and at the same time eliminate Arbitrage.  Arbitrage is one of the economic weapons that the small rent seeking elite use to transfer wealth from the larger disorganized masses.  The M1 money supply will most likely also be redesigned to more accurately measure the weights of the new SDR system.     – JC Collins

Anti-gravity propulsion comes ‘out of the closet’

 

Nick Cook, JDW Aerospace Consultant, London – Jane’s Defense Weekly

Summary: Boeing, the world’s largest aircraft manufacturer, has admitted it is working on experimental anti-gravity projects that could overturn a century of conventional aerospace propulsion technology if the science underpinning them can be engineered into hardware.

Boeing, the world’s largest aircraft manufacturer, has admitted it is working on experimental anti-gravity projects that could overturn a century of conventional aerospace propulsion technology if the science underpinning them can be engineered into hardware.

As part of the effort, which is being run out of Boeing’s Phantom Works advanced research and development facility in Seattle, the company is trying to solicit the services of a Russian scientist who claims he has developed anti-gravity devices in Russia and Finland. The approach, however, has been thwarted by Russian officialdom.

The Boeing drive to develop a collaborative relationship with the scientist in question, Dr Evgeny Podkletnov, has its own internal project name: ‘GRASP’ — Gravity Research for Advanced Space Propulsion.

A GRASP briefing document obtained by JDW sets out what Boeing believes to be at stake. “If gravity modification is real,” it says, “it will alter the entire aerospace business.”

GRASP’s objective is to explore propellentless propulsion (the aerospace world’s more formal term for anti-gravity), determine the validity of Podkletnov’s work and “examine possible uses for such a technology”. Applications, the company says, could include space launch systems, artificial gravity on spacecraft, aircraft propulsion and ‘fuelless’ electricity generation — so-called ‘free energy’.

But it is also apparent that Podkletnov’s work could be engineered into a radical new weapon. The GRASP paper focuses on Podkletnov’s claims that his high-power experiments, using a device called an ‘impulse gravity generator’, are capable of producing a beam of ‘gravity-like’ energy that can exert an instantaneous force of 1,000g on any object — enough, in principle, to vaporise it, especially if the object is moving at high speed.

Podkletnov maintains that a laboratory installation in Russia has already demonstrated the 4in (10cm) wide beam’s ability to repel objects a kilometre away and that it exhibits negligible power loss at distances of up to 200km. Such a device, observers say, could be adapted for use as an anti-satellite weapon or a ballistic missile shield. Podkletnov declared that any object placed above his rapidly spinning superconducting apparatus lost up to 2% of its weight.

Although he was vilified by traditionalists who claimed that gravity-shielding was impossible under the known laws of physics, the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) attempted to replicate his work in the mid-1990s. Because NASA lacked Podkletnov’s unique formula for the work, the attempt failed. NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama will shortly conduct a second set of experiments using apparatus built to Podkletnov’s specifications.

Boeing recently approached Podkletnov directly, but promptly fell foul of Russian technology transfer controls (Moscow wants to stem the exodus of Russian high technology to the West).

The GRASP briefing document reveals that BAE Systems and Lockheed Martin have also contacted Podkletnov “and have some activity in this area”.

It is also possible, Boeing admits, that “classified activities in gravity modification may exist”. The paper points out that Podkletnov is strongly anti-military and will only provide assistance if the research is carried out in the ‘white world’ of open development.

Yevgeny Podkletnov[1] (Russian: Евгений Подклетнов) is a Russian engineer, formerly affiliated with the Materials Science Department at the Tampere University of Technology, Finland.

Born in Russia in 1955, Podkletnov graduated with a master’s degree from the University of Chemical Technology, Mendeleyev Institute, in Moscow; he then spent 15 years at the Institute for High Temperatures in the Russian Academy of Sciences. Later he received a doctorate in materials science from Tampere University of Technology, and worked at the university, on superconductors, until 1996.[citation needed]

He is best known for his controversial work on a so-called “gravity shielding” device.

By 1997, Podkletnov had withdrawn his second paper (after it had been initially accepted[5][non-primary source needed]), was no longer allowed into his former lab in Tampere and had returned to Moscow, where he quietly took an engineering job. (In 1998 he was however reported to be working on superconductors at Tamglass Engineering Oy in Tampere.[6])

Who’da thunk it?

by Paul Harvey?

Back in 1969, a group of Black Panthers decided that a fellow black panther named Alex Rackley needed to die. Rackley was suspected of disloyalty. Rackley was first tied to a chair.  Once safely immobilized, his friends tortured him for hours by, among other things, pouring boiling water on him.

When they got tired of torturing Rackley, Black Panther member, Warren Kimbro took Rackley outside and put a bullet in his head. Rackley’s body was later found floating in a river about 25 miles north of New Haven , Connecticut .

Perhaps at this point you’re curious as to what happened to these Black Panthers?

In 1977, only eight years later, only one of the killers was still in jail.

The shooter, Warren Kimbro, managed to get a scholarship to Harvard and became good friends with none other than Al Gore. He later became an assistant dean at an Eastern Connecticut State College.

Isn’t that something!!!

As a ’60s radical you can pump a bullet into someone’s head and a few years later, in the same state, you can become an assistant college dean!

Only in America !!!

Erica Huggins was the woman who served the Panthers by boiling the water for Mr. Rackley’s torture. Some years later Ms. Huggins was elected to a California School Board.

How in the world do you think these killers got off so easily?

Maybe it was in some part due to the efforts of two people who came to the defense of the Panthers.

These two people actually went so far as to shut down Yale University with demonstrations in defense of the accused Black Panthers during their trial.

One of these people was none other than Bill Lan Lee.  Mr. Lee, or Mr. Lan Lee, as the case may be, isn’t a college dean. He isn’t a member of a California School Board. He is now head of the United States Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, appointed by none other than Bill Clinton.

O.K., so who was the other Panther defender?  Is this other notable Panther defender now a school board member? Is this other Panther apologist now an assistant college dean?  No, neither!

The other Panther defender was, like Lee, a radical law student at Yale University at the time. She is now known as The “smartest woman in the world.     And now the rest of the story. She is none other than the former Democratic senator from the State of New York —- our former First Lady, and the Secretary of State, the incredible Hillary Rodham Clinton.

I don’t know how true this is.  Anyone else know? Found this:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Rackley and this:  http://www.weirdrepublic.com/episode8.htm and another: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/966232/posts

The Secret Playbook of Social Media Censors

February 26, 2014

Source: Washington’s Blog

The “Counter Reset”

Glenn Greenwald’s piece on manipulation of the Internet by intelligence agencies gives examples – based upon documents leaked by Edward Snowden – of how governments disrupt social media websites.

Other whistleblowers have provided very specific information about how agents disrupt social media news sites.

This essay will focus one specific technique: the “Counter Reset”.

To explain the Counter Reset technique, we have to understand the concepts of “momentum” and “social proof”.

Specifically, the government spends a great deal of manpower and money to monitor which stories, memes and social movements are developing the momentum to actually pose a threat to the status quo.  For example, the Federal Reserve, PentagonDepartment of Homeland Security, and other agencies all monitor social media for stories critical of their agencies … or the government in general.   Other governments – and private corporations – do the same thing.

Why?

Because a story gaining momentum ranks high on social media sites.  So it has a high probability of bursting into popular awareness, destroying the secrecy which allows corruption, and becoming a real challenge to the powers-that-be.

“Social proof” is a related concept.  Social proof is the well-known principle stating that people will believe something ifmost other people believe it. And see this.  In other words, most people have a herd instinct, so if a story ranks highly, more people are likely to believe it and be influenced by it.

That is why vested interests go to great lengths – using computer power and human resources – to monitor social media momentum.   If a story critical of one of these powerful entities is gaining momentum, they will go to great lengths to kill its momentum, and destroy the social proof which comes with alot of upvotes, likes or recommendations in social media.

They may choose to flood social media with comments supporting the entities, using armies of sock puppets, i.e. fake social media identities. See thisthisthisthis and this. Or moderators at the social media sites themselves can justcensor the stories.

Or they can be more sneaky … and do a Counter Reset to destroy momentum.

Giving specific examples will illustrate the technique.   Reddit moderators have continuously reset the counter over the last couple of days on the new Greenwald/Snowden story, to destroy momentum which would otherwise have guaranteed that the story was the top story.

Similarly, the owners of popular Youtube channels have repeatedly reported that Counter Resets are done on their most controversial news stories.

The attractiveness of the Counter Reset from a moderator’s perspective is that it destroys momentum, while leaving some plausible deniability.

If users point out that the story keeps getting spiked, the moderator can say that it hasn’t been censored, but instead that the moderators have allowed it to stay up (with periodic Counter Resets along the way).

Alternatively – if the moderators have continuously deleted the story each time it is posted – the moderators can say that it has been posted “numerous times”, and pretend that shows that they are letting the story gather momentum, when they are in fact deleting it again and again.  For example, when hundreds of Redditors complained yesterday that the Greenwald/Snowden story kept getting deleted, moderators chimed in on every thread proclaiming that the story had run multiple times … without admitting that it had been deleted each time.

Now that you know about the Counter Reset, watch your favorite social media sites to see how this technique is used for the hardest-hitting stories and videos which directly challenge the legitimacy of the powers-that-be.

The Secret Constitution and Bank Wars with Karen Hudes

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yy0NmkIQcQ#t=691

Published on Feb 25, 2014           

World Bank whistleblower Karen Hudes joins Buzzsaw to talk about the secret other Constitution, banking corruption on a global scale, and how secret orders have undermined freedom around the world. Unpayable debt, the worth of gold and the possibility of reforming a broken banking system is all discussed in this interview hosted by Sean Stone.
GUEST BIO: Karen Hudes studied law at Yale Law School and economics at the University of Amsterdam. She worked in the US Export Import Bank of the US from 1980-1985 and in the Legal Department of the World Bank from 1986-2007. She established the Non Governmental Organization Committee of the International Law Section of the American Bar Association and the Committee on Multilateralism and the Accountability of International Organizations of the American Branch of the International Law Association. In addition she has recently come under fire for whistleblowing at her more recent position at the World Bank.

Can Washington overthrow three governments at the same time?

 

February 25, 2014

Thierry Meyssan, voltairenet.org

The power of a state is measured by its ability to defend itself and to attack on one or more fronts. In this context, Washington is trying for the first time to show it can overthrow three governments simultaneously: Syria, Ukraine and Venezuela. If it succeeds, no government would be henceforth able to resist it.

Washington, which failed in 2011 to bomb Libya and Syria simultaneously, is now engaged in a new demonstration of its strength: organizing regime change in three states at the same time, in different regions of the world: Syria (CentCom), Ukraine (EuCom) and Venezuela (SouthCom).

To do this, President Obama has mobilized almost the entire National Security Council team.

First, Advisor Susan Rice and Ambassador to the UN, Samantha Power. These two women are champions of “democratic” talk. They have for many years specialized in advocating interference in the internal affairs of other countries under the pretext of preventing genocide. But behind this generous rhetoric, they couldn’t care less about non-US lives as shown by Ms. Power during the chemical weapons crisis in the Damascus suburb of Ghouta. The ambassador, who was aware of the innocence of the Syrian authorities, had gone to Europe with her husband to attend a film festival dedicated to Charlie Chaplin, while her government denounced a crime against humanity, the responsibility for which was placed upon President al Assad.

Then, the three regional co-ordinators: Philip Gordon ( Middle East and North Africa ), Karen Donfried (Europe and Eurasia ) and Ricardo Zuñiga ( Latin America).

• Phil Gordon (personal friend and translator of Nicolas Sarkozy) organized the sabotage of the Geneva 2 Peace Conference as long as the Palestinian issue is not settled to the U.S. liking. During the second session of the conference, while John Kerry spoke of peace, Gordon met with the heads of Jordanian, Qatari , Saudi and Turkish intelligence services in Washington to prepare for yet another attack. The plotters have gathered an army of 13,000 men, of whom only 1,000 were given brief military training, to drive tanks and take Damascus. The problem is that the column may be destroyed by the Syrian Army before arriving in the capital. But they fail to agree on how to defend it without distributing anti-aircraft weapons that could later be used against Israel.

• Karen Donfried is the former national intelligence officer for Europe. She has long led the German Marshall Fund in Berlin. Today, she manipulates the European Union to hide Washington interventionism in Ukraine. Despite the leak of a phone conversation involving Ambassador Victoria Nuland, she succeeded in convincing Europeans that the opposition in Kiev wanted to join them and was fighting for democracy. Nonetheless, more than half of the Maidan rioters are members of the Nazi party and brandish portraits of collaborator Stepan Bandera.

• Finally, Ricardo Zuñiga is the grandson of the namesake President of the National Party of Honduras who organized the coups of 1963 and 1972 in favor of General López Arellano. He directed the CIA station in Havana where he recruited and financed agents to form opposition to Fidel Castro. He mobilized the extreme Trotskyist Venezuelan left to overthrow President Nicolás Maduro, accused of being a Stalinist.

The whole process is hyped under the leadership of one Dan Rhodes. This propaganda specialist has already written the official version of September 11, 2001, drafting the report of the Presidential Commission of Inquiry. He managed to remove all traces of the military coup (power was removed from the hands of George W. Bush at about 10am and it was returned that evening; all the members of his cabinet and those of Congress were placed in secure bunkers “to ensure their safety”) so that we remember only the attacks.

In all three cases, the U.S. narrative is based on the same principles: accuse governments of killing their own citizens, qualify opponents as ’democratic’; impose sanctions against the “murderers” and ultimately operate coups.

Each time, the movement begins with a demonstration during which peaceful opponents are killed, and where both sides accuse each other of violence. In fact U.S. or NATO special forces placed on rooftops shoot at both the crowd and the police. This was the case in Daraa (Syria) in 2011, Kiev (Ukraine) and Caracas (Venezuela) this week. Alas for bad luck: autopsies in Venezuela show that two victims, one opponent and one pro-government, were killed by the same weapon.

Qualifying opponents as democratic activists is a simple game of rhetoric. In Syria, they are Takfirists supported by the worst dictatorship in the world, Saudi Arabia. In Ukraine, a few sincere pro-Europeans surrounded by many Nazis. In Venezuela, young Trotskyists from good families surrounded by goon squads. Everywhere the false U.S. opponent, John McCain, brings his support to true and false on site opponents.

Support for opponents rests with the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). This agency of the U.S. government falsely presents itself as an NGO funded by Congress. But it was created by President Ronald Reagan, in association with Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia. It is headed by the neoconservative Carl Gershman and the daughter of General Alexander Haig (former Supreme Commander of NATO, then Secretary of State ), Barbara Haig. This is the NED (actually the State Department), which employs the “opposition” senator John McCain.

To this operating group, you must add the Albert Einstein Institute, an “NGO” funded by NATO. Created by Gene Sharp, it trained professional agitators from two bases: Serbia (Canvas) and Qatar (Academy of currency).

In all cases, Susan Rice and Samantha Power take on airs of outrage before imposing penalties, soon echoed by the European Union, while they are in fact the sponsors of the violence.

It remains to be seen whether the the coups will be successful. Which is far from being certain.

Washington is thus attempting to show the world it is still the master. To be more sure of itself, it launched the Ukrainian and Venezuelan operations during the Olympic Games in Sochi. It was certain that Russia would not move for fear of having its party upset by Islamist attacks. But Sochi ended this weekend. Now it’s Moscow’s turn to play.

The Dollar and the Deep State

charles hugh smith

If we consider the Fed’s policies (tapering, etc.) solely within the narrow confines of the corporatocracy or a strictly financial context, we are in effect touching the foot of the elephant and declaring the creature to be short and roundish. I have been studying the Deep State for 40 years, before it had gained the nifty name “deep state.” What others describe as the Deep State I term the National Security State which enables the American Empire, a vast structure that incorporates hard and soft power–military, diplomatic, intelligence, finance, commercial, energy, media, higher education–in a system of global domination and influence. Back in 2007 I drew a simplified chart of the Imperial structure, what I called the Elite Maintaining and Extending Global Dominance (EMEGD): At a very superficial level, some pundits have sought a Master Control in the Trilateral Commission or similar elite gatherings. Such groups are certainly one cell within the Empire, but each is no more important than other parts, just as killer T-cells are just one of dozens of cell types in the immune system. One key feature of the Deep State is that it makes decisions behind closed doors and the surface government simply ratifies or approves the decisions. A second key feature is that the Deep State decision-makers have access to an entire world of secret intelligence. Here is an example from the late 1960s, when the mere existence of the National Security Agency (NSA) was a state secret. Though the Soviet Union made every effort to hide its failures in space, it was an ill-kept secret that a number of their manned flights failed in space and the astronauts died. The NSA had tapped the main undersea cables, and may have already had other collection capabilities in place, for the U.S. intercepted a tearful phone call from Soviet Leader Brezhnev to the doomed astronauts, a call made once it had become clear there was no hope of their capsule returning to Earth. Former congressional staff member Mike Lofgren described the Deep State in his recent essay Anatomy of the Deep State:

There is another, more shadowy, more indefinable government that is not explained in Civics 101 or observable to tourists at the White House or the Capitol. The subsurface part of the iceberg I shall call the Deep State, which operates according to its own compass heading regardless of who is formally in power. 

The term “Deep State” was coined in Turkey and is said to be a system composed of high-level elements within the intelligence services, military, security, judiciary and organized crime. 

I use the term to mean a hybrid association of elements of government and parts of top-level finance and industry that is effectively able to govern the United States without reference to the consent of the governed as expressed through the formal political process.

I would say that only senior military or intelligence officers have any realistic grasp of the true scope, power and complexity of the Deep State and its Empire.Those with no grasp of military matters cannot possibly understand the Deep State. If you don’t have any real sense of the scope of the National Security State, you are in effect touching the foot of the elephant and declaring the creature is perhaps two feet tall. The Deep State arose in World War II, as the mechanisms of electoral governance had failed to prepare the nation for global war. The goal of winning the war relegated the conventional electoral government to rubber-stamping Deep State decisions and policies. After the war, the need to stabilize (if not “win”) the Cold War actually extended the Deep State. Now, the global war on terror (GWOT) is the justification. One way to understand the Deep State is to trace the vectors of dependency. The Deep State needs the nation to survive, but the nation does not need the Deep State to survive (despite the groupthink within the Deep State that “we are the only thing keeping this thing together.”) The nation would survive without the Federal Reserve, but the Federal Reserve would not survive without the Deep State. The Fed is not the Deep State; it is merely a tool of the Deep State. This brings us to the U.S. dollar and the Deep State. The Deep State doesn’t really care about the signal noise of the economy–mortgage rates, minimum wages, unemployment, etc., any more that it cares about the political circus (“step right up to the Clinton sideshow, folks”) or the bickering over regulations by various camps. What the Deep State cares about are the U.S. dollar, water, energy, minerals and access to those commodities (alliances, sea lanes, etc.). As I have mentioned before, consider the trade enabled by the reserve currency (the dollar): we print/create money out of thin air and exchange this for oil, commodities, electronics, etc. If this isn’t the greatest trade on Earth–exchanging paper for real stuff– what is?While I am sympathetic to the strictly financial arguments that predict hyper-inflation and the destruction of the U.S. dollar, they are in effect touching the toe of the elephant. The financial argument is this: we can print money but we can’t print more oil, coal, ground water, etc., and so eventually the claims on real wealth (i.e. dollars) will so far exceed the real wealth that the claims on wealth will collapse. So far as this goes, it makes perfect sense. But let’s approach this from the geopolitical-strategic perspective of the Deep State: why would the Deep State allow policies that would bring about the destruction of its key global asset, the U.S. dollar? There is simply no way the Deep State is going to support policies that would fatally weaken the dollar, or passively watch a subsidiary of the Deep State (the Fed) damage the Deep State itself. The strictly financial arguments for hyper-inflation and the destruction of the U.S. dollar implicitly assume a system that operates like a line of dominoes: if the Fed prints money, that will inevitably start the dominoes falling, with the final domino being the reserve currency. Setting aside the complexity of Triffin’s Paradox and other key dynamics within the reserve currency, we can safely predict that the Deep State will do whatever is necessary to maintain the dollar’s reserve status and purchasing power. Understanding the “Exorbitant Privilege” of the U.S. Dollar (November 19, 2012)
What Will Benefit from Global Recession? The U.S. Dollar (October 9, 2012) Recall Triffin’s primary point: countries like China that run trade surpluses cannot host reserve currencies, as that requires running large structural trade deficits. In my view, the euro currency is a regional experiment in the “bancor” model,where a supra-national currency supposedly eliminates Triffin’s Paradox. It has failed, partly because supra-national currencies don’t resolve Triffin’s dilemma, they simply obfuscate it with sovereign credit imbalances that eventually moot the currency’s ability to function as intended. Many people assume the corporatocracy rules the nation, but the corporatocracy is simply another tool of the Deep State. Many pundits declare that the Powers That Be want a weaker dollar to boost exports, but this sort of strictly financial concern is only of passing interest to the Deep State. The corporatocracy (banking/financialization, etc.) has captured the machinery of regulation and governance, but these are surface effects of the electoral government that rubber-stamps policies set by the Deep State. The corporatocracy is a useful global tool of the Deep State, but its lobbying of the visible government is mostly signal noise to the Deep State. The only sectors that matter are the defense, energy, agriculture and international financial sectors that supply the Imperial Project and project power. What would best serve the Deep State is a dollar that increases in purchasing power and extends the Deep State’s power. It is widely assumed that the Fed creating a few trillion dollars has created a massive surplus of dollars that will guarantee a slide in the dollar’s purchasing power and its demise as the reserve currency. Those who believe the Fed’s expansion of its balance sheet will weaken the dollar are forgetting that from the point of view of the outside world, the Fed’s actions are not so much expanding the supply of dollars as offsetting the contraction caused by deleveraging. I would argue that the dollar will soon be scarce, and the simple but profound laws of supply and demand will push the dollar’s value not just higher but much higher. The problem going forward for exporting nations will be the scarcity of dollars. If we consider the Fed’s policies (tapering, etc.) solely within the narrow confines of the corporatocracy or a strictly financial context, we are in effect touching the foot of the elephant and declaring the creature to be short and roundish. The elephant is the Deep State and its Imperial Project.

MEN BEHIND BARACK OBAMA,

The men behind Barack Obama part 1 

at02:00 Posted by

Vatic Note:  We brought this up way back in 2008 during the primary for the dems.   We noticed that the GOP had sabotagued their own candidate for President and it was noted that Ron Paul would have beat Obama had he won the nomination.  McCain was selected for the express purpose of losing the general election, but would have won against Hitlary.
So Obama had to be the nominee.  All these candidates on both sides were Rothschild/Rockefeller minions, bought and paid for.   Not so Ron Paul and that is why they had to do what the did to him and I saw it first hand at the state convention.   The GOP violated every campaign law on the books, both state and federal during that convention.  I spoke about it earlier after I attended.
 
Before the primary was even over,  the Bildebergs called both dem candidates to their meeting in Va. to meet with them in secret which is treason.  When it was over, Obama was the nominee and Hitlary was going to be secretary of state where she had more control than she would have had as President.  That must have really ticked her off.
That was when I knew that our presidents were for sure selected by the Zionist nazi’s running industries, wars, and fiat currencies extracting all the wealth out of our nation.  Palestine simply proved it and gave us an inside view of what it would be like to live under such nazi type administrations, especially our children who would have been subjected to their Satanic ritual abuses.   Its why I fought so hard against these zionist bankers. 
 
Lets remember, JFK Jr was murdered because he had declared his intent to run against Hillary for the senate seat where she needed that position to launch her run for President for her handlers, the Israeli’s who are khazar pagan satanists.  She had to run in New  York where she could win the election using  the zionists votes which were plentiful, but JFK announced and there was no doubt he would have won against her, since dems love the Kennedy’s way more than they do the zionists, so he had to go.

PART 2

Vatic Note:  this is a continuation of part 1 and he is spot on.  I am impressed, this man “knows” what is going on.  We have been saying that Obama is not the problem, rather he is simply a puppet with his foreign occupying handlers standing behind the curtain.  This is confirmed by Tarpley.
He even points out that Obama knows so little that he doesn’t even know where Pakistan is on the map.  I believe him.  What we need to be saying from now on is “The rothschild bankers and their treasonous collaborators need to be kicked out of this country pronto”.   Then we can recovered from their perverse insane attack upon this planet and humanity through their black and darkness drawing satanism.

Americans rising up against government: Column

Glenn Harlan Reynolds     5:36 p.m. EST February 23, 2014

Three examples of pushback against the ruling class.

America’s ruling class has been experiencing more pushback than usual lately. It just might be a harbinger of things to come.

First, in response to widespread protests last week, the Department of Homeland Security canceled plans to build a nationwide license plate database. Many local police departments already use license-plate readers that track every car as it passes traffic signals or pole-mounted cameras. Specially equipped police cars even track cars parked on the street or even in driveways.

The DHS put out a bid request for a system that would have gcone national, letting the federal government track millions of people’s comings and goings just as it tracks data about every phone call we make. But the proposal was suddenly withdrawn last week, with the unconvincing explanation that it was all a mistake. I’m inclined to agree with TechDirt’s Tim Cushing, who wrote: “The most plausible explanation is that someone up top at the DHS or ICE suddenly realized that publicly calling for bids on a nationwide surveillance system while nationwide surveillance systems are being hotly debated was … a horrible idea.”

On Friday, after more public outrage, the Federal Communications Commission withdrew a plan to “monitor” news coverage at not only broadcast stations, but also at print publications that the FCC has no authority to regulate. The “Multi-Market Study of Critical Information Needs,” or CIN (pronounced “sin”) involved the FCC sending people to question reporters and editors about why they chose to run particular stories. Many folks in and out of the media found it Orwellian.

How this program appeared was, like the DHS program, a bit of a mystery: FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai said: “This has never been put to an FCC vote; it was just announced.”  But the blowback was sufficient to stop it for now.

Meanwhile, in Connecticut a massive new gun-registration scheme is also facing civil disobedience. As J.D. Tuccille reports: “Three years ago, the Connecticut legislature estimated there were 372,000 rifles in the state of the sort that might be classified as ‘assault weapons,’ and 2 million plus high-capacity magazines. … But by the close of registration at the end of 2013, state officials received around 50,000 applications for ‘assault weapon’ registrations, and 38,000 applications for magazines.”

This is more  “Irish Democracy,” passive resistance to government overreach. The Hartford (Conn.) Courant is demanding that the state use background-check records to prosecute those who haven’t registered, but the state doesn’t have the resources and it’s doubtful juries would convict ordinary, law-abiding people for failure to file some paperwork.

Though people have taken to the streets from Egypt, to Ukraine, to Venezuela to Thailand,  many have wondered whether Americans would ever resist the increasing encroachments on their freedom. I think they’ve begun.

NSA spy case heats up!

NSA spy case heats up!

Exclusive: Larry Klayman hopes motion will precipitate progress toward trial

On Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14, 2014, the individual Government Defendants, Barack H. Obama, Eric H. Holder, Keith B. Alexander, Roger Vinson, the U.S. Department of Justice and the National Security Agency (NSA), in our initial lawsuit over the NSA spying on the American people – the one that produced a great victory last December when Judge Richard J. Leon ruled that President Obama and the NSA had egregiously violated the Fourth Amendment and the U.S. Constitution – presented me and the other plaintiffs with the gift that may keep on giving. In response to a court order issued about 10 days earlier, wherein Judge Leon testily told the Obama Justice Department lawyers to get the show on the road and finally file an answer to the complaint as they were in default for not having responded timely, President Obama’s lawyers stonewalled the judge in the answer they later filed on the day reserved for love, not obstruction of justice.

In this answer, the Obama Justice Department told the judge that President Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder, NSA Director Keith Alexander and other collaborators in the NSA’s illegal spying scandal are above the law and did not need to respond, claiming falsely that they were never served with the complaint. Remarkable as it may sound, the Obama Justice Department and its clients obviously feel that they are a privileged class – free to lie to a court or Congress whenever it suits their interests.

But when it comes to the NSA and its enablers, this is nothing new. The agency and the so-called intelligence community as a whole have racked up quite a record of deceit and outright lying to the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and Congress, where James Clapper, the director of national intelligence, got caught perjuring himself, claiming that the NSA does not spy on American citizens if they have no connection to terrorism. Of course, given Congress’ impotence if not outright lack of courage, Clapper was not held accountable for these lies. But in front of Judge Leon, a valiant courageous man and judge, they may have met someone who will finally have them account for their lies and criminality.

As set forth in a motion I filed last Thursday, titled “Motion for Entry of Default (Judgment) and To Strike Defendants’ Answer to Third Amended Complaint”:

“The Obama Justice Department is playing its usual game, which has been to try to delay, obstruct and throw a monkey wrench into every aspect of this case, which the Court has observed is a matter of ‘pinnacle’ national importance.

“It thus stands to reason given the Court’s preliminary injunction order of December 16, 2013, which finds a clear cut violation of the Fourth Amendment concerning the unconstitutional collection of telephonic metadata, that not only a default judgment be entered, but that the Court enter judgment on liability against all of the individual Government Defendants pursuant to FRCP Rule 55(a) and 55(b), particularly given the flouting of this Court’s process. The issue of damages alleged against the individual Government Defendants can be tried later before the jury, after the parties have the opportunity to take discovery on damages.”

The reason President Obama and the other individual Government Defendants are liable individually for their illegal unconstitutional acts stems from the landmark Supreme Court case of Bivens v. Six Unknown Agents of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971), which also involved the Fourth Amendment. As also pointed out to the Court in my motion:

“Indeed, the individual Government Defendants … are liable for their tortious, unconstitutional acts under Bivens. The Supreme Court held in that case that a violation of the Fourth Amendment’s command against unreasonable searches and seizures by a federal agent acting under color of federal authority – precisely what is occurring now by Government Defendants – gives rise to a federal cause of action for damages as a consequence of the agent’s unconstitutional conduct. Specifically, the Court ruled  ‘… petitioner is entitled to recover money damages for any injuries he has suffered as a result of the agents’ violation of the Amendment.’”

Help Larry Klayman with his class-action suit against Obama’s use of the NSA to violate Americans’ rights

As a result of the Supreme Court Bivens’ precedent, the real possibility exists, whether or not Judge Leon enters a default judgment at this time on liability, that when our case is tried Obama and the other individual Government Defendants will be socked by a jury for huge monetary damages, in addition to the injunction that we have already obtained to stop the outrageous spying by the NSA.

In addition to our request that Judge Leon enter judgment for liability now against Obama and the other individual Government Defendants, my motion also seeks to strike, as lawyers say, their answer of the non-individual Government Defendants, which are the NSA and the Justice Department, which signs off on the illegal spy programs through the certifications of Attorney General Eric Holder. The reason for this aspect of our motion is because the Obama Justice Department only answered that part of our complaint that suited them and withheld information, on the bogus claims of national security. So what I asked Judge Leon to do was to require the Obama Justice Department to submit two answers, one that is for the public to see and one that would be submitted to the court in camera, that is for only the judge to see at this stage since he has a security clearance. As the judge is an honest man, I trust that he would “do the right thing” with this so-called national security information. My goal is to move our case into the discovery phase and then to trial as soon as possible.

For it is important that all matters involving the illegal NSA spy programs be litigated to a successful conclusion as soon as possible, as this most egregious violation of the citizenry’s rights in American history must be stopped immediately. And, indeed this is our mission, and this is why we have asked the Supreme Court to affirm Judge Leon’s Dec. 16, 2013, preliminary injunction order at this time.

Each day our constitutional rights continue to be violated is one day too many. It is time to wage a legal revolution, and the case before Judge Leon is just one of the tools that must be used to end the tyranny of President Obama, his NSA henchmen and others in both political parties who have sold We the People out to the devil of government corruption and subjugation.
