One Last Look At The Real Economy Before It Implodes - Part 5

Since I began writing analysis for the liberty movement more than eight years ago, I have always said that we will know when the endgame of the globalists is upon us when the criminals come out into the light of day and admit to their crimes. At that moment, it will be because they no longer fear either the repercussions or their plans being obstructed.

As I plan to show in this installment of my series on the hidden fiscal collapse of America, the endgame has indeed arrived. At the very least, the international elites seem to think success is within their grasp, for they now openly expose their own criminality. But they do so in a way that attempts to divert blame or to rationalize their actions as being for the “greater good.”

In Part 4 of this series, I discussed the reality of the false East/West paradigm and the fact that the “conflict” between Eastern and Western interests is nothing more than Kabuki theater constructed by globalists and designed to mesmerize the masses. You see, the problem with most people is that they tend to let their innate sense of tribalism drive them to take sides in war without understanding the fundamental root of that war. In most cases, they believe one side must be “good” and one side must be “bad.” Globalists understand this weakness of human collectivism, and they exploit it as often as possible. They create conflicts from out of the void, conflicts in which BOTH sides are controlled. Then, they let the masses fumble like idiots trying to set the noose around the other guy’s neck.

The East/West paradigm is just another in a long line of false confrontations engineered by the elites, but it is one that is most dangerous to the liberty movement itself. In our rage over the destruction of freedom and prosperity within our own country, some of us have come to assume that the source of all that is unholy bubbles at the heart of U.S. corporate and government activity and that the East is in the midst of some kind of rebellion. This is simply nonsense.

Recently, a reader sent me a link that reminded me of comments made by Rep. Louis T. McFadden, chairman of the House Banking Committee, on May 4, 1933. In the wake of his battle against the Federal Reserve, he said:

“… the treacherous signing away of American rights at the 7-power conference at London in July 1931 … put the Federal Reserve System under the control of the Bank of International Settlements.”

Even in 1933, there were some people who could see that the Federal Reserve was just an errand boy, an economic hit man for a more powerful entity. Sadly, McFadden died in 1936 from coronary thrombosis before he could make any headway in his crusade. The truth he stamped into the public record, though, lives on; and it is a truth that many people just don’t want to hear. It is easier to quantify the threat of the Federal Reserve. It is easier to believe that the Fed either controls the entire game or (for the more sheep-minded citizenry) that the Fed is a harmless “quasi-governmental body.” Many of us in the movement want to believe it is the gateway to the seventh circle of hell because if the Fed dies, then we win. And the Fed appears to be killable, most notably in light of certain actions on the part of the East. Unfortunately, the problem is far more complex.

As McFadden exposed, the Fed is merely a tentacle, one of many slithering at the behest of a larger vampire squid. The Bank for International Settlements appears to be the eye of the leviathan. I have been happy to see that the BIS is gaining more and more attention from the alternative media as a primary threat to the stability of the world. Zero Hedge published a very interesting article on the BIS banking cabal recently, excerpted from a book by Adam LeBor and titled “Meet The Secretive Group That Runs The World.”

Of course, this is not the first exposé on the BIS. Even Harper’s published a surprisingly honest (though only half the story) piece on the bank, titled “Ruling The World Of Money,” back in 1983. In it, the magazine claims that “…the unabashed purpose of its (BIS) elite monthly meetings is to coordinate and, if possible, to control all monetary activities in the industrialized world.”

Any central bank that ends up on the membership roster of the BIS should be for all intents and purposes considered a pawn of the BIS. This includes the central banks of Eastern nations supposedly in opposition to Western power. The very beginning history of the BIS is stained with blood, since it financially played both sides of World War II and aided the funding of the Nazi apparatus. Keep in mind that Germany, Japan and the Allies were all members of the BIS from 1931 on and remained members through the war. Bankers have been pitting countries against each other for a very long time, and they have no loyalties to any particular nation.

The BIS had to fade into the background for a time after its partnership with fascists was made public after the war. So the elites formed yet another monstrosity, the International Monetary Fund, to take its place in the public eye. However, the BIS continues to this day to pull the strings of the world’s central banks and, by extension, the world’s governments.

The strategy of engineered conflict has not changed. I have written numerous articles on the undeniable collusion between Russia and the IMF, including the avid Russian support for the IMF’s new global reserve currency, the Special Drawing Rights. You can read those articles here, here and here.

Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin have continued their love affair with the IMF since 2009, when they called for the SDR to become the world reserve currency.

Last year, Putin reasserted the goal of the BRICS to become more involved (enveloped) in the IMF system:

"In the BRICS case we see a whole set of coinciding strategic interests. First of all, this is the common intention to reform the international monetary and financial system. In the present form it is unjust to the BRICS countries and to new economies in general. We should take a more active part in the IMF and the World Bank’s decision-making system. The international monetary system itself depends a lot on the US dollar, or, to be precise, on the monetary and financial policy of the US authorities. The BRICS countries want to change this."

I also have been covering the Chinese shift away from the dollar and into the arms of the IMF’s currency basket for years.

The great lie today is that China and Russia are anti-New World Order. Yet as I discussed in my last article, China (and Russia) have consistently called for a global conversion into the SDR basket system, and they want this system to be run by the IMF. The IMF, in turn, has consistently called for the end of the dollar as the world reserve currency and has openly embraced institutions like the new Asian regional bank, the AIIB, which is dominated by China, despite the fact that many people wrongly believe that the AIIB is somehow “competition” to the IMF or World Bank.

This excerpt comes from the International Business Times:

World Bank managing director Mulyani Indrawati told Xinhua in an interview.

“We will definitely open for cooperation with AIIB [sic]. Even now, we are working very closely in the beginning and looking at the setting, principle and framework of this institution.”

 

She also dismissed worries that the AIIB will compete against the World Bank or existing regional development banks and noted the global need for infrastructure is huge to accommodate multiple organisations.

 

Speaking at the opening of the China Development Forum in Beijing, IMF chief Christine Lagarde said the IMF would be “delighted” to co-operate with AIIB, and the institutions have “massive” room for cooperation.

More on the history of China and its partnership with the New World Order can be found in James Corbett’s excellent video analysis here.

At the level of international banking and monetary policy, there is absolutely NO indication of any legitimate conflict between the East and the West. Again, such battles are only theater for the masses. But what purpose does this theater serve?

The fake economic war between East and West provides cover and rationale for the true goal of the internationalists: the destruction of the dollar as the world reserve currency and the ascendency of the SDR global monetary system. The endgame of the bankers is, of course, global government. It has been the longtime dream of the Fabian socialists permeating the central banking universe. A global currency system and centralized economic management are first-step psychological weapons against the public. If the world operates on a singular currency mechanism and a singular economic authority, why not have a singular governmental system as well?

The mistake many liberty movement analysts make is the assumption that the internationalists are somehow dedicated to U.S. interests. The idea that globalists have any loyalties to any sovereign government is a ridiculous notion. Fabians hate sovereign separations between nations (as much as they hate individual liberties), and they seek to ultimately destroy all boundaries for the sake of a singular global fiscal-political edifice.

But the elites cannot simply kill the dollar and replace it outright. They need a magic trick, a smoke-and-mirrors hologram, a sexy assistant in a sequined bathing suit and fireworks galore while they pull their global basket reserve out of a top hat. The false East/West paradigm is the perfect distraction. What better way to destroy the dollar and conjure a new world reserve than to pit one block of nations you dominate against the other block of nations you dominate and blame the resulting economic catastrophe on the "barbarism of sovereign nationalism,” which you also plan to erase in due course?

The elites are preparing for this event, and they are not content only to trigger it then sit back and watch it happen. They also hope to construct a new image for themselves as the prophets who tried to warn the world — the financial “sages” who would be our rescuers.

The criminals are coming into the light, and they are wearing the masks of saviors.

Alan Greenspan is now suddenly a staunch promoter of economic caution, warning that “something big … a significant market event …” is about to happen, and that gold is now a good investment as opposed to the dollar.

 

Janet Yellen has openly conceded that cash is not a convenient store of value.

 

Jamie Dimon is getting in on the prognosticator action, asserting that another financial crisis is coming.

 

The IMF now consistently warns of “shadow banking risks” bringing disaster to the economic environment.

 

The World Bank has been polite enough to warn the public that “now is the time to prepare for the next crisis.”

 

The BIS now produces statements on a regular basis predicting a possible “violent reversal of global markets,” just as it conveniently alerted the public to the possibility of credit collapse in 2007 right before the derivatives crisis.

Literally every elitist and his drunken uncle now publicly discuss the danger of another market crash. That’s a rather stark reversal from a few years ago when recovery was a mainstream absolute, Bernanke was being called a hero, and fiat stimulus was the fountain of youth. How would they know that such an event is coming? They built the conditions by which a collapse is inevitable, and now they want to purify themselves in the waters of Lake Minnetonka and absolve their institutions of all future ugliness.

I would like to point out, though, that banker warnings of volatility and crisis are generally given far too late for average people to act accordingly. I would also like to point out that the rising chorus of mainstream voices giving predictions of destabilization are also marginalizing and isolating the U.S. and the Federal Reserve as the root cause. The U.S. is nothing more than a storefront for elitist activities. And the Federal Reserve is a tentacle that can be sacrificed if it means achieving total centralization. All signs and evidence point to what the IMF calls the “great global economic reset.” The plans for this reset do not include U.S. prosperity or a thriving dollar.

This has been mostly a good series except for the SDR bullshit.  If East and West were always driving toward an SDR then why the need for theatrics of hostility?  Is Russia just acting like they're not cool with a US coup in Ukraine and attempts to overthrow Assad?  Is the blood just some of Kerry's Ketchup?  An SDR could be accomplished just as well with open arms rather than play acting. 

And what of the US military?  Why was such a colossal siege machine built if not to enforce US hegemony?  The MIC is fully funded with printed money, a privilege that the US would not enjoy with an SDR.

There are still some men in this world that won't sell out their countrymen for fake money, Mr. Smith takes conspiracy a bridge too far.

Once-Prized Tibetan Mastiffs Are Discarded as Fad Ends in China

 

China’s boom-to-bust luxury landscape is strewn with devalued commodities like black Audis, Omega watches, top-shelf sorghum liquor and high-rise apartments in third-tier cities. Some are the victims of a slowing economy, while others are casualties of an official austerity campaign that has made ostentatious consumption a red flag for anticorruption investigators.

Why did the elites pit the communists against the fascists while funding both sides?  Because they believe in order out of chaos.  Chaos creates distraction for the masses, allowing social change to be made that could not be made before.  Hell, the IMF and the UN were built from the ashes of WWII, a war they fabricated from thin air.  Russia is a puppet nation just like the U.S.  Putin bends over for the IMF and the BIS just like every Western politician does.

Putin seems to be spearhead of the emerging Eurasian bloc, principally due to the landbridge frontier to Western Europe, and history. If he IS on board the NWO global gulag rollout, he's a worthy and convincing leader of the final 'hold outs' (ie will fold in at the 'singularity point' eg the 'biggie': astroid/alien invasion super-Pearl-Harbour that Rockerfeller and Regan have telegraphed). Or he's a genuine nationalist and Orthodox Christian making a ballsy stand againts the Zionist/Jesuit/Satanist/DeathCultist endgame/'end-of-days' agenda.

In fact, Smith's focus on the SDR "BRICS bait-and-switch" is precisely what puts his writing a cut above the unthinking parrots so frequently syndicated on blogs like ZH. 

The blood is very real, as is the desire to depopulate key resource-rich and trade route-dependent areas. The blood sells the conflict as a "real" threat. 

In the meantime, we're faced with a world in which the term "BRICS" was coined by none other than Goldman Sachs: 
http://www.goldmansachs.com/our-thinking/archive/archive-pdfs/brics-drea...

A world in which the head of the PBOC, who is rapidly making his way through the ranks of both the IMF and BIS, has expressed repeated desires to use China's vast gold reserves to back the SDR:
http://www.bis.org/review/r090402c.pdf

A world in which Chatham House is publishing papers explaining exactly how a partial gold backing would work:
http://www.chathamhouse.org/sites/files/chathamhouse/field/field_documen...

A world in which Putin and Kissinger frequently dine at each other's houses and refer to one another as "good friends":
http://redefininggod.com/2014/11/the-rockefeller-plan-for-the-brics-new-...

And a world in which China, India, and Brazil are "all in" on "Sustainable Development" (read: Agenda 21):
http://unctad.org/en/PublicationsLibrary/osgdp20141_en.pdf

You have to do quite a bit of mental gymnastics to square these circles; when you really dig into the minutia of policy papers like these, you not only find that most alt-media claims of Eastern desire for a Yuan World Reserve Currency are not only misguided, but completely unfounded and blatantly speculative, based solely on gold import numbers. The mouths of their leaders say something completely different. This is exactly the "multilateral, multipolar" world that the Rockefellers described in their 1968 publication, Prospects for America.

Putin may very well be the "Wild Card" in all of this, and even though I doubt such a thesis, even if he were "The Real McCoy," an East divided against itself will inevitably fall. Perhaps that's the plan.

Is this activity conspiratorial? Most certainly. But theory, this time, it is not.

The late Christopher Hitchens alludes to this possibility in his book, The Trial of Henry Kissinger, if I'm not mistaken. In any case, in addition to being a general cretin and Globalist stooge, Kissinger, if not directly a KGB agent, certainly has the hallmarks of an "academic infiltrator" as outlined by former KGB agent and defector Yuri Bezmenov:

Someone above mentioned that "the simplest explanation is most often the correct one." The problem with such thinking is that Occam's Razor, as it's called, only works properly when applied to a problem in which all information is considered. As you've so aptly noted, these waters have been made deliberately murky, making Occam's Razor more akin to a month-old Gillette than an accurate measure of geopolitiks.

JRev, I read your links and they do have some interesting information but nothing that changes my mind about the SDR.  I found it particularly amusing that the GS paper states China GDP could be larger than the US by 2041, they seem to be about 25 years off on their estimate.  Policy papers are usually not worth their ink when put to test in the real world.  As a great thinker once said, "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth."

The simple truth is that the US does not want SDR because a phasing out of the dollar as reserve currency means US Empire falls apart.  And SDR would mean that China gains a little more power but not enough to represent their stature as the world's largest economy.  There might have been a time that China would have settled for SDR but that time has passed, and they have been hoarding gold because they know the future is not fiat. 

The banksters pull a lot of strings but they don't pull all of them.  There are too many moving parts and unknowns for them to be omnipotent.

Upvote and mad kudos to you for clicking through the links and keeping an open mind, man. For what it's worth, I'm hardly 100% certain that the thesis folks like myself and Brandon posit is true. You and others may very well be correct and the train may indeed be coming off the tracks, which I think all of us here would find far more palatable than some form of controlled changeover. 

Whatever happens, I get the feeling we won't have to wait much longer to see how this all manifests.

I'm not positive that I'm right either, just an educated guess.  No doubt that there are men conspiring to make SDR happen but it won't fly in reality.

What I do know is that there isn't much spirit of cooperation from the US to the rest of the world, and Russia and China are finally taking the gloves off.

I think the point is .. the THING that moves the world toward a globalist government outcome .. uses the angst . anger and rivalries to move toward that outcome .. as for blood... they do not care as long as a profit is made and they can advance their power and control .. think about it .. one war after another leads towards the move of integration .. new world order .. whatever .. the powerful do not CARE about bloodletting . most of the time its not their sons or daughters getting slaughtered .. the US military is collapsing .. trust me on this .. the money and effort is going into special operations . and also he international arm . ISOC .. which have done are doing drills all over the world .. the US military .. is a petri dish of social engineering . .. its officer corps is being eviserated ..  its weapons systems .. anything that works is being pushed aside. and crap like the F-35 that keep the MIC in mink . continue on ..the US has lost high tech mnaufacturing .. and the skill sets that are vital to creating a war machine .. as for Brandon and whether Russia is part of this PLOT .. I have my doubts.. I think they really wanted to be a player in the global system . but the West is not going to let that happen .. I always think of Russia as the kid trying to be part of the games.. e .. . it plays the game until its interests are challenged..that includes being part of the world banking system ..  in the end there maybe several world orders.. or a regional system ..I think Russia will be the spoiler of the NWO .. for lots of reasons including its new found faith in Christ and Christianity . while the WEST is becoming more secular and corrupt. Russia plays along .. plays the game including trying to be part of the global economic system ..  .. because it was totally ruined by decades of central planning and police state . ... and it was the IMF in cahoots with US . Harvard boys who made matters worse after the Soviet Union collapsed.. Read The Nation ... http://www.thenation.com/article/harvard-boys-do-russia The Harvard Boys Do Russia . Russia may turn out not to be part of the evil system but an antidote ...... simply because it is the new home or Christianity reborn ..

Because not everyone is on board.  There are different factions.  Take, for example, the Clintons.  They have clearly be in it for themselves the entire time.  Take the patriots of whatever country, they will not be down with a NWO but they will fight for a rag on a stick.  ...and so on and so forth.

There are too many out there who will not go along so games must be arranged to get them to kill each other so the elite can swoop in, save the day, and take over while discrediting the well intentioned but misled and manipulated true blues.

I believe the plan is to destroy all paper currencies and switch to digital money. Everyone will be chipped and all their income and expenses tracked. If they get out of line, their chip will be turned off and they won't be able to work, travel, buy food, gasoline, etc. In effect, they will be outlaws or dead. I think a lot of the wars going on are part of the theater to distract us from what really is going on with the elites of ALL countries on board with this plan.

This nonsense that all the world's various peoples are brothers in a struggle against a few, difficult to indentify, international elitists is just a cop out. Ethnicities and races will compete for power and resources. Often violently. Nations exist to protect an ethnicity or race, contend for its interests and, hopefully, minimize conflicts with other nations. Ultimately the U.S. will unravel in conflict between varying imported gene pools. Pussies who try to convince us that these conflicts aren't real or are just "theatre" staged by a few bankers are delusional and also manipulative. Killing (or rather dis-employing) all the bureaucrats at BIS and in the central banks is not going to solve humanity's problems. Real conflict is part of the human condition, and provided it protects or furthers the interests of the people within the nation, conflict is justified. However, U.S. imperial wars of the last 60 years have been contrary to the interests of the U.S. population, and should be stopped.

The comments on this artcile are sadly proving that many here simply aren't well-read enough to draw accurate historical conclusions. Haven't read Georgetown Professor and insider Carroll Quigley's Tragedy and Hope, haven't read Stanford University Professor and Hoover Institute scholar Antony Sutton's Wall Street series that got him run out of academia, haven't read Brzezinski and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund books from the 60s that outline the "multilateral, multinational, multipolar World Order" now unfolding before our eyes, haven't read Eustace Mullins, haven't read period. 

It's this childish belief in the "Saviour Paradigm" that keeps the long con going. "Jesus will save me." "Putin will save me." "The BRICS will save me." "Rand/Ron Paul will save me." "The magical shapeshifting aliens will save me." "The 'good men' in the military will save me." Ain't nobody comin' to save you but yourself.

But this is not Putin will save me, Putin will save Russia, his own country, why the hell would he want to save the USA??? The simple answer is that it will be the nation states, who will keep winning, because they are the strongest force, without patriotism, without identity, without some kind of a shared vision, there is no future. You can see it as packs of wolves in a jungle. The strongest, most united pack of wolves (a nation) will keep winning. The other wolves packs members keep fighting among themselves and this makes them too weak. The conspiracy in this article is stupid. Putin is a true patriot and will always do what is best for Russia. That does not mean it would be the best for other countries. Being a slave to IMF and some NWO is certainly not what Putin would ever want. If you learn more about him, you would understand. He has his own vision of power and will not bow to anyone. For example, why would he share Russias vast resources with anyone? You can read the book The Colder War from Katusa. Putin has most cards in his hands, why would he even want to share those cards with anyone? He does not need to, he has everything possible to make Russia a great power. It still does not mean that you should somehow see him as a saviour, who would help you, because helping the USA is not his responsibility. Only the USA people can help the USA, that will be always true. The article is stupid, because it presupposes that all these elites of the world (of different nationalities) would be able to agree and somehow rule the world together. That would require a much higher degree of intelligence from them, then they really have. In reality, the NWO is imposible because of the simple fact that even the Western oligarchs do not agree with each other, much less Western oligarchs for example with the Chinese ones. This is why WWIII is very probable. It will be struggle for resources and power. I saw a document with a very bleak vision of future - we will return to feudalism, where all kinds of powerful oligarchs (kind of modern nobleman) will compete and fight with each other, each with his own vassals. That still seems to me much more probable than some kind of an utopian NWO, where somehow all those powerful men would agree with each other. That never works! We, somehow, still live in a jungle. If you remove the nation states, you will go back to the Middle Ages, everyone fighting for power with everyone. Than, some leader will have to come again, unite people and make a nation state again. And this nation state will then be stronger than other not so united states. This is a pattern, which is repeated in history over and over.

While I enjoy Mr. Smith's articles, I must say that the end game will involve firearms and war. Not because that is best, but because, as witnessed by the behavior of the local gun and badge thugs lately, that is what tyranny will bring to the party. Theft and violence are what they are, and all they have.

If it doesn't come to bloodshed, that is great, but regardless of how it comes about, the American country and people must be restored, and the Constitutional republic reestablished.

The American people's first and mightiest weapon, is to just Stop. Stop Paying, as their entire skyscraper of cards would then tumble in a fortnight.

The banksters need to repay us.

 

Revolutions start with the first "no!"

The most powerful weapon the American people have is Rejection.

The system of fraud and theft that has been built up upon the backs of the American people is dependent upon our backs. Withdraw our backs, and the whole scheme collapses. This is our greatest weapon.

Quit Paying--Put it into food, and precious metals, etc. They stole whatever "debt money" they loaned you in the first place (fractional reserve banking) and soon you won't be able to pay them anyways.

Quit Obeying--If they are in violation of the Constitution then they are not legitimate anyways.

Quit Playing--Quit being a tool for them to use.

The Four Rs
Rejection: Stop Paying, Stop Obeying, Stop Playing
Revolution: It is inevitable, so prepare, as they are.
Retribution: The guilty must answer for their crimes against the American people and the Constitution.
Restoration: Restore the American people, country and Constitutional republic.

Yes, well. The banksters' greatest weapon is the arsenal of thermonuclear weapons they can and will use against anyone who defies them. The real targets of Uncle Sugar's ICBMs were always the major cities of the Old Confederacy, not the Soviet Union. 

Oh, they're prepared all right. When they go down, they've made damn sure we'll die with them. Look at it from their perspective:

Consequences of nuclear war: Death.

Consequences of surrender to the proles: The humiliation of having to accept the consequences of one's actions---and giving the proles the last laugh. 

No prizes for guessing which they'll pick.

the russia, china, BIS conspiracy MAY be ' a bridge too far', but so what?  the crimes they have already commited, the bunkers they have already built, the lives they are continually destroying BY DESIGN should be enough of a window into their collective charachter to pronounce them guilty.

There still are honorable men out there. They've sat back in the corner at this big party, but as the fat cats are starting to blow chunks from over consumption, the good guys are kicking their asses out the door.

The system is cratering right now with tremendous action in derivatives. The PPT and The Fed are doing everything possible to prop this bitch up.

Right or wrong, we're going to feel horrific pain in the U.S. I expect the worst and I don't think I'm going to be wrong on that point.

The world's people will soon be living in total slavery or the most beautiful life, free of the banker's control and absolute evil. I hope the latter will be correct and I'm going to do my part in making that happen.

Their interest in joining together in supporting the SDR is simple: if it's better for them than the current status-quo then why not? why do they have to be in on some grand scheme if it's good for them anyway?

Interesting series of articles.  The PTB grip on the financial system is slipping, but they will make extraordinary efforts to manage the replacement of the US Dollar, as a reserve currency, with a SDR basket, so that they maintain some control and continue to further enrich themselves.  It will take a dramatic catalyst (e. g., EMP burst takes out the power grid, Yellowstone super volcano, and pandemics), for the system to totally unravel into chaos.

Many here on this site are very impatient for the total collapse, facilitating their opportunity to seek revenge, retribution and street justice.  The collapse just may be in slow motion, a steady slide into lower standards of living, poorer nutrition and health and an early death;the Great Culling of the Baby Boomers.

The PTB are just those fortunate enough to be born or placed into positions of power within the political, MIC, Big Pharma-Insurance, economic and banking centers.  They are by no means to be conidered "elite," in the sense of being the best of something considered collectively.  If you must use the word "elite," they can be characterized as "elite scumbags."  Afterall, many of those assholes wake up on third base and they think they just hit a triple!

I'm not sure if Brandon is right or wrong on the big picture and the East/West facade. But I will tell you this- today as I served a few separate business interests I was driving down the road. As I came to the intersection, the car on my left was covered in right-wing b-stickers including the Gadsden Flag, Infowars and an NRA logo. The truck on the other side had the Molon Labe sticker. At that point I thought to myself that no matter what actually goes down, it won't go down without a serious ass whooping. May God help us all!

The fake economic war between East and West provides cover and rationale for the true goal of the internationalists: the destruction of the dollar as the world reserve currency and the ascendency of the SDR global monetary system. The endgame of the bankers is, of course, global government."

Never happen.

While I wouldn't call it a "war" exactly, there are new challenges in the east that an old western system will have to learn to contend with. That is a fact.

And despite the western neocons, Russia and China are not the hegemonic threats Washington would have us believe. WE are the global menace in many ways, and the turmoil we aided and abetted in the Ukraine is a good example of how they act. Lies and agitation designed to impune and demonize rising powers, which are not threatening us, should be our greatest fear, AND our greatest target. This is the kind of miscreant behavior that needs to be stamped out. What was revealed in intercepted cell phone communications between U.S. diplomats and Baltic state counterparts just prior to the events in Kiev, which toppled an elected government, and which have led to much bloodshed since, are the kinds of activities demanding answers and accountability. To date, those "diplomats" have never been held to explain themselves or their actions.

The same is true of repeated claims of Russian "invasions" in the Crimea and in eastern Ukraine that were either greatly exaggerated or outright lies. Where ARE those tank columns? Where are the "invaders" of the Crimea?

The fact is, the Ukrainian citizens of Crimea seceded from Ukraine, and then asked for absorption by the mother nation of Russia. Once granted, we have not heard a peep out of them since. Were those citizens being injured by an invading Russian oppressor, we'd have heard about it almost non stop since. We haven't because such is not the case.

We also haven't heard much about MH-17 lately either. 280+ innocent lives lost and NO ONE is held accountable.

The west was lightening fast to level allegations against Russian sponsored eastern Ukrainian separatists (who had neither the equipment nor the expertise) as being wholly responsible for that barbarous act, but have yet to lay any solid, incontrovertible evidence to back this claim.

No global banking "cabal" engineered this.

Ditto for claims of WMD in Iraq, and Syrian chemical weapon use, which led to red line threats never followed through with punitive or rescuing U.S. military action. In fact, nothing more came of the claim of crimes against humanity by Assad. Even if the Russians "handled" Assad, shutting him down, one would think the west would still seize the opportunity to demand his head, just the same way we went after Milosevic years ago. Didn't happen.

Wonder why...

The point is, WE are increasingly seen as the global menace, and WE are correspondingly being more challenged and isolated (as Putin's remarks in this blurb allude to) by a rising Russia and China that is growing fed up with western hegemonic mischief.

There ain't no global NWO cabal involved here. Just your run o' the mill, dangerously mad, western neocon lunatics on the loose.

Engaging in wild and enigmatic theories about some sort of hidden mastermind at diabolical work here, only takes our eyes off the obvious ball.

Perhaps, THAT is our greatest danger.

The so called elites running the world in this article know very well the East/West shift is something they cannot control.  This is why we see all the rhetoric out of Washington DC.  The USA wants to control the ole and the new Silk Road in the Far East nothing more.  If you look at the placement of USA troops and conflict in the region,  the USA is trying to isolate Russia and China to a smaller degree.  China and Russia know this and thue the alliance between the two for now.  The shadow elites running the world in the article and many here know the West and not the elites created this.  The petro dollar is being challenged and we do not like it, nothing more.

The world is tired of our games and conflicts.  Currency wars like any other form of warfare decimates countries are now being put in place to counter the US dollar.  Gold may well be the trump card in the end.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations.

Each central bank, in the hands of men like Montagu Norman of the Bank of England, Benjamin Strong of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, Charles Rist of the Bank of France, and Hjalmar Schacht of the Reichsbank, sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

Conspiracy theories normally credit elites with far more intelligence than they actually posses, such thinking is way beyond them.

 

Luckily for the rest of us the new world order has some fatal flaws as would be expected from our not so bright elites.

Fatal Flaw 1
The US likes the idea of the new world order when it runs the show.
China and Russia are never going to let this happen.

Fatal Flaw 2
Bankers have a key role to play and they are incompetent, delusional psychopaths who think they are "Masters of the Universe".
Investment bankers demonstrated their incompetence in 2008.
An under-regulated Wall Street always crashes and burns (1929/2008) leading to global recession.
Central Bankers have demonstrated since 1999, the tools they have available don't get economies going again, they just blow bubbles. Like the US housing market which then burst leading to 2008.

Fatal Flaw 3
The EU and Euro are stepping stones on the road to global Government and a global currency.
It is never going to work, just look at the Euro shambles.

Fatal Flaw 4
Elites think they like the idea of the new world order with the world under their thumb.
But national elites have forgotten the power they wield operates only at a national level.
They all have put in place mechanisms to control their national Governments which will fall away with a global Government.
eg Wall Street funding US campaign contributions to control US politicians. This stops working for a global Government.
They all imagine they will run the show when this is clearly impossible due to the conflicting nature of them all following their own self-interest.

Don't worry, it ain't ever going to happen.

Let's try a different approach. Suppose I could identify a concept underlying the Smith article and the Synder article and virtually all the comments AND satisfy Occam's Razor? Sound impossible?!

Let's assume the bloggers are pushers and the commenters are junkies.

What do junkies want? They want their ego stroked, supported, inflated. They want their fears suppressed, assuaged. They want distractions. And in this sphere of junkiedom fear merchants receive special mention, they satisfy 2 or even 3 categories. They puff up egos with special arcane knowledge. They obviously supply distraction and they frequently offer solutions to the fear they create or exacerbate.

Btw I should mention that we're all junkies, it's a matter of degree. This paradigm can be liberally applied solve a multitude of spooky mysteries. It can explain so so many inexplicable behaviors.

Wondering why you haven't heard this before? It's a tad difficult to monetize. For example it would be hard to spin this into 97,000 doom porn articles. It tends to undercut low brow entertainment. You might need to read a book or learn a skill for distractions.

Actually I thought all that around ten years ago when I realized I was becoming addicted to using the internet at that time. So I then began taking long regular breaks from the net, several weeks or months at a time, and I still do. I will be doing it again from tomorrow, mainly because I learn vastly more researching offline, than online. The stuff you encounter online is usually almost all complete rubbish, and the stuff which really matters is not online, and never will be.

And yes, I agree that what you point to is a part of the dynamic at play here. Not hard for a blogger to grasp what butters the bread.

My question is why are there no voices like Ron Paul. Where are the leaders who can carry a credible alarm over this. In government or I dustry or military or for fucks sake the clergy might even have a reason to fear having a globalist in charge.  All these organizations will be subservient to a world government. There won't be any tolerance of a strong military in one country capable of a succession movement. How can national elites who should know better not be alarmed at this for their own existence will be  most unsure

This story vastly underestimates the capacity of the bloodsucking banksters to turn on and trample each other in the race for the exit, as well as the capacity of the rest of us to help shape history with our struggles.  

It is good to see what they are up to, what their exit plan is now that they can no longer evade the fact that the empire they built is coming apart, but not so good to concede they will get away with it "because they always do."

And it is always a fallacy to assume that because they rule, if x is what happened, then x is what they caused or planned to have happen.

It’s too complicated nobody can run it.  There are too many unknowns and too many unforeseen consequences.  Case in point: when the German central planners put Lenin on a train to Moscow during the First World War, not one of them could imagine that the communist regime they put in play would come back to Berlin in a few short years to rape their woman, pillage their industry and put their children and grandchildren in slave labor camps. 

 

Central plans are perfect right up until the point they are put in motion.  Control is an illusion.  It requires a tremendous expenditure of energy.  As the energy wanes, entropy exacts its costs and chaos ensues.   We are on the back side of the bell curve.

I don't think your analysis is right. The elites HAD a global currency in the US dollar. They've raped and abused it into illegitimacy. Just because China and Russia publicly agree with US calls for an SDR replacement to the dollar doesn't mean that they love the idea, are marching in lockstep with US elites and/or aren't making alternative arrangements in the shadows. It's not like they're going to come out and and say, "we hate America and are doing everything we can to destroy it, now please send your bombers over our capitals." China is openly creating international bodies under their control. If they were thrilled with the US-controlled bodies, there'd be no need for this. Russia has been actively forestalling the wars that elites in the West keep fomenting. Western elites need a war to distract from the economy, kill off the surplus population and create jobs rebuilding what gets destroyed. Russia is not helping them.

Ignoring all the language, it's pretty obvious from all the concrete steps that Russia and China are making that they have a set of priorities very different from those of US elites and are operating from a very different playbook. To ignore all the verifiable realities and focus on some language from bureaucrats and diplomats (they are paid to lie, after all) in support of a different hypothesis is truly conspiracy theorizing.

Anyway, your headline mentions a look at the "real economy," but I see no mention of it in the article. Very misleading.

I agree that Part V is the weakest of the otherwise fascinating series. Looking into the future is more demanding than the provision of an excellent analysis of the status quo. It is indeed by no means likely that the governments in China and Russia would welcome any kind of unified world government in the foreseeable future. I fail also to understand the benefits that the economical elites would expect from a unified world government. It is pretty obvious that the political elites at least in the US and Europe but likely also in China and Russia are interested to enlarge their territorial powers. However there are no more white spots on the map and the existing wars for instance in the Ukraine bring the frictions to light. Another weakness of this and other related articles is the very unprecise fashion in which the playbook of the so called "endgame" is explained. The substitution of the US-Dollar by another FIAT currency in the form of SDR's is going to resolve nothing and is certainly not the endgame as such. Any endgame would need to incorporate the total write-off of all insustainable debt. If that should happen it won't be pretty and it will be less disadvantageous for the have-not's than for the super-wealthy. I don't think the latter really look forward to the endgame. That idea seems to be sort of silly. I would also dispute that the interests of the political and economical elites are aligned. I think on the longer run for instance the american companies might experience disadvantages caused by mistakes made by the political elite. An example could be lost revenues for companies like CISCO and apple in China.

Prof. Michel Chossudovsky: INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE THE "NEW WORLD ORDER" A RECIPE FOR WAR OR PEACE by grtv

Prominent academic and author Dr Michel Chossudovsky warned that the so-called war on terrorism is a front to propagate America’s global hegemony and create a New World Order.

Dr Chossudovsky said terrorism is made in the US and that terrorists are not the product of the Muslim world.

According to him, the US global war on terrorism was used to enact anti-terrorism laws that demonised Muslims in the Western world and created Islamophobia.

Elaborating on his argument, Dr Chossudovsky said that NATO was responsible for recruiting members of the Islamic state while Israel is funding “global jihad elements inside Syria”.

Dr Chossudovsky, who is also the founder of the Centre for Research and Globalisation, further emphasised that the global war on terrorism is a fabrication, a big lie and a crime against humanity.

That Mercan greed, militaristic insanity and global war without end (waged on credit and lies), Anglo Zio ineptitude and downright hubris by the shaman banksters might have anything to do with the collapse of the IOU Saudi Mercan toilet paper petroscrip dollah...God forbid! Atrophy and degeneration are all built into the system and frankly it is a mirtacle that the mutt nation of USSA survived this long. But of course for Mr Smith, the shill, it is all a dastardly plot by "the internationalists" with China and Russia of course as key conspirators!

 

Mr Smith, like Mr Collins and Mr Armstrong, Mr Rickards and Michael Noonan are all great believers in La Garde dog's IMF BIS SDRs apparently, considering how often they push the scam. Me thinks he doth protest too much and then some. Let's see what will happen in Novorossiya when Nuland's Kiev NAZIS get their CIA marching orders to the next bout of genocide by the rump Ukraine regime. To imagine that China and Russia especially will allow the same rabid pack of thieving Anglozionazi wolves the keys to the hen house for another 100 years after all the scams and all the fraud, wars and terror is ludicrous indeed.

Jim Willie has been right on this issue for years and paints a much more realistic picture of the reasons for Mercan decline and the causes of the inevitable collapse of the Empire of Chao$. The rot is within, Mr Smith no matter how satisfying it may be to blame it all on a "conspiracy" of so-called "internationalists". We did it ourselves...it's simply a question of having tolerated thieves, liars and murderous thugs the privilege of governing and looting our "republic" all the while living beyond our means using the privilege of our worthle$$ "reserve currency" dollah.
