Mike Krieger Exposes The Three Card Monti

Tyler Durden's picture




Submitted by Mike Krieger of KAM LP

 

We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years.  It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.

– David Rockefeller

The interests behind the Bush Administration, such as the CFR, The Trilateral  Commission -- founded by Brzezinski for David Rockefeller -- and the  Bilderberger Group, have prepared for and are now moving to implement open world dictatorship within the next five years. They are not fighting against terrorists. They are fighting against citizens.

– Dr. Johannes B. Koeppl

Chancellor Angela Merkel said that Germany is ready to cede some sovereignty to strengthen the euro area and restore confidence in the common currency…“Germany sees the need in this context to show the markets and the world public that the euro will remain together, that the euro must be defended, but also that we are prepared to give up a little bit of national sovereignty,” Merkel said. Germany wants a strong EU and a euro “of 17 member states that is just as strong and inspires confidence on international markets.”

– Bloomberg article November 16, 2011 http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-16/merkel-says-germany-ready-to-ce...

Three Card Monti

Just like the con (confidence) game Three Card Monte through which people have been swindled out of their hard earned money in alleyways and street corners all over the world for half a millennium, the previously sovereign nations of Greece and Italy have now officially been placed into the receivership of “technocratic governments” and are now in the final phase of their looting.  It truly is sad to watch these proud nations whose histories form the very core of Western civilization be taken down one by one but what is even more nauseating is watching the corporate media pundits, Wall Street analysts and financial experts cheer the news because it is ostensibly “good for markets.”  First of all, it doesn’t take a genius to see that the people that screw up the most get promoted and advanced in the Western world’s current political/economic structure.  The primary reason for this is that there is a very serious agenda of TPTB and that consists on using crisis to consolidate power in a one-world government, headed by a global central bank that issues a global fiat currency.  People have been saying this on the fringe for decades and have been called conspiracy theorists the whole time but if you look at how things are progressing today you’d have to be asleep to not notice that the guys in charge are completely and totally determined to bring this sick, twisted dream into place.  That is why the agenda moves forward despite the repeated, desperate cries of the citizenry for them to stop.

Let’s take a look at Mario Monti, the “soft” dictator that has been thrust upon the people of Italy by TPTB.  He is a member of the Bilderberg Group, he is the European Chairman of the Trilateral Commission (a think tank founded by David Rockefeller in 1973, see quote at the top) and is international advisor to none other than Goldman Sachs.  This guy was put into place by design.  Anyone in Italy that thinks they achieved a victory in by ridding themselves of Berlusconi you better think again.  You just got the biggest insider, crony financial terrorist around put in charge of your country without having a say in it.  Even for someone like me that expects these things, I am amazed by how badly Italy was just screwed.  Speaking of the unreported coup that just happened in Italy I will let my friend Jared Dillian of the Daily Dirtnap add his two cents.  From his piece today:

So I read recently that Italy wasn’t going to have elections because of “market crisis” or something like that, and I am the last guy who should be writing about this, since I know very little about political systems in any European country, for example, how can you just announce or not announce an election? Aren’t these things on a schedule? So already I don’t know what I am talking about. But I am worried about Greece and Italy that have chosen not to have elections to choose their leaders, I am actually quite concerned about that. You can’t use “market crisis” as an excuse to not hold elections. Even if elections take time and are messy and (most importantly) don’t produce the desired result, it is a part of gosh darn democracy, and if they are going to suspend elections for this, then they can suspend elections for anything. Like, say, pretend Mario Monti is a closet dictator and they just put a guy in there who is never going to hold another election again.

So this is a bad precedent. 

This is way worse than a bad precedent but well said my friend.  Oh and another thing.  If you are looking at the gold market and wondering why it is so weak stop wondering.  In my opinion, all you have to look at is Mario “three card” Monti (credit to Gerald Celente for that name).  If I were anyone in Italy that cared I would be checking the gold in the vault every single day.  I have zero doubt that Monti is letting the country’s treasure out the back door by the ton in the name of “global stability” and ECB bond purchases.  The backroom deals that are happening right now at the expense of the people of Italy have got to be completely off the charts.  As I have said many times before, the reason Europe doesn’t announce a solution is because there is no solution.  They also know that the minute they announce massive monetization gold and silver will go no offer and the gig will be up.  This is also why the FED hasn’t announced QE3 despite their desire to do so.  So the strategy is to announce nothing, sell sovereign gold behind the scenes and perform all sorts of market manipulations behind closed doors.  While the sheep in most nations will be completely unaware until way after the looting is over and then they are left with chaos and then a real dictator, the leaders of nations of China, Russia and others know exactly what is happening and will happily take Italy’s gold (and whatever Greece hasn’t already sold without telling anyone).  I love how leaders keep coming out with stuff like “we need to stop freedom of speech and we need to manipulate markets and we need to take your sovereignty away to create confidence.”  The worst part is people actually fall for this crap!  On what planet does robbing someone, taking their freedom away and saying you and your children will be slaves forever inspire confidence?

Germany 

How do you say “sucker” in German?  No seriously, I want to know.  I mean how about the quote from Merkel at the top. I mean did David Rockefeller write that speech for her.  I love how politicians are now openly out there offering their countries sovereignty in the name of 50 up points in the S&P500.  I seriously hope the Germans are buying Three Card Monti’s gold for their sake. After all, as Jim Rickards has stated they will never see an ounce of whatever gold they were stupid enough to store in NY.  That’s all I have to say about the Germans.  Ditch the periphery (and that includes you France) or go down with the ship.  Gute Nacht.
 
The Ben Bernank is Superman

Banana Ben Bernanke is superman didn’t you know?  Oh and on the side he prevents all economic downturns from ever happening in a single bound.  It’s true.  Didn’t you hear about the speech he gave in from of the military in Texas (what a sad joke).  Yep, he was quoted as saying the following: "I'm not a believer in the Old Testament theory of business cycles. I think that if we can help people, we need to help people.”  Wait, let’s do that again.  "I'm not a believer in the Old Testament theory of business cycles. I think that if we can help people, we need to help people.”  Good lord this man is a maniac and he is in charge of global monetary policy and the world’s reserve currency.  Good luck to you if you don’t own gold. 

As My Friend Tony Greer (if you aren’t getting his emails you’d better start) Likes to Say…Time to Hit the Links!      

The Postal Service just lost $5 billion for the year.  Did you know they employ 670,000 people?  http://news.yahoo.com/postal-loses-5-1-billion-fiscal-2011-232706243.htm...

Jon Stewart destroys the criminal bankster/political hack Corzine in one great clip.  http://nation.foxnews.com/jon-corzine/2011/11/09/jon-stewart-makes-mince...

Finally for the biggest joke of the day….U.S. banks.  This article is a gem.  It talks about how the big financial institutions don’t break out CDS exposure by region because it might scare people.  How about this line.  “As of Sept. 30, JPMorgan said it had sold $3.13 trillion of credit-derivative protection and purchased $3.07 trillion.”  All good I guess!  No one loses.

I DO know what the word for this in English is.  PONZI.  http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-16/jpmorgan-joins-goldman-keeping-...

Peace and wisdom,

Mike

How long can a new con game last?

This man is simply going to steal everything that isn't nailed down.

 Everyone knows the euro zone is toast.

 The entire global economic system is in the process of collapsing,

 and it is all being done on purpose.

That is significantly cheaper than our current efforts:

 

1. Taliban Field Strength: 35,000 troops
2. Taliban Killed Per Year by Coalition forces: 2,000 (best available information)
3. Pentagon Direct Costs for Afghan War for 2010: $100 billion
4. Pentagon Indirect Costs for Afghan War for 2010: $100 billion

Using the fact that 2,000 Taliban are being killed each year and that the Pentagon spends $200 billion per year on the war in Afghanistan, one simply has to divide one number into the other. That calculation reveals that $100 million is being spent to kill each Taliban soldier.

 

http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread618878/pg1

For $100,000, you could have bought the loyalty of a Taliban soldier and avoided the killing.  War is a racket

The Euro Zone is fine.  This is an engineered crisis.  The ends have already been exposed in plain light - the ceding of national sovereignty over to the supranational E.U. and its unelected rulers.

 

Things will get as bad as they have to get in order to coax the people into ceding national sovereignty and giving up on their notions of democracy.  The same will happen in America.

 

Welcome to the New World Order.

uhm.. China & Russia (BRICS) do not have representative in any of those Western think tank groups. 

 

Ogliarchial collectivism will not be total, until BRICS representatives come in to the fold.  Also, have you gone outside lately.  Everyone is unconscious.  They will not rise up.

 

Enjoy your time here.   don't sweat it. And soon man--in the enlightened sense--will give way to Das Man--unconscious man--biologically alive, but without humanity. You are the last man.

 

Consciousness will be unveiled again.. It may take centuries, like after the Dark Ages, but it will come.

The will of Dasein is Being.

 

You can not be conscious for those whom are unconscious.

It's the volitional use of reason that's lacking but, to give people a bit of break, they have every right to go about their daily lives, happily (hopefully) pursuing their rational (hopefully) self-interest.  The fact that they do not see the enormous storm heading their way, even while a gusty wind or two breaks into their consciousness occassionaly is not surprising.

Whether this NWO is a kleptocracy, fascism or marxist it matters not as the overriding feature will be a boot stomping a human face forever.  So those of you who want to argue this much statism is good or that much statism is better had better get with the program.  The program being standing up for freedom and liberty to make our own choices to succeed or fail within a VOLUNTARILY cooperating community with real law and order and consequences for lawbreaking especially financial and political lawbreaking as it is the most insidious  and conducive to societal rot.

Ahh yes, the old Rockefeller coalition busy at work. They had the power and money to topple and install autocratic governments all over the world during the 20th century, protecting their oil distribution network and it's vertical monopoly: Iran, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Indonesia, New Guinea and the Solomons, all over South America etc etc. They built palaces and when they got bored with them, they got turned into exclusive hotels all over the world. They invented the cold war, a war fought against shadows with the main objective to burn oil, build the military-industrial complex and protect autocratic pro-Rockefeller regimes. Vietnam was the best example of the false premises, false assumptions, and complete lack of validity of their predictions of impending doom without a decade worth of war. The main achievement was the extensive use of "the oil bomb" aka Napalm which created a need for...more oil to be pumped and then blown up in the jungle or on villagers

indeed,... when the newly freed citizens had asked ben franklin in philadelphia how america should fare as a new republic, he simply said we shall see. no parsing of words, just a question for another question was his response.

washington was president, but hamilton ran the show. but as fate would have it franklin knew to much, and chose not to talk, and just watch  and see himself,... while spending much of the remainder of his life in france. jefferson and madison were not fond of hamilton and his central bank philosophy. you see,... a fellow called issac roosevelt founded the 'bank of new york' in 1790 - yes, the same roosevelt family tree from which teddy & fdr evolved from, which later morphed into 'jpmc'.

the rockefellers were envolved also back then as a tool for the rothschild family.

nelson rockefeller, and brother david were advocates for eugenics for the sake of euthenics, or whatever it took to keep the world's population from growing and pristine [?] - he definitely advocated, and believed  that necessary wars culled the planet  of overpopulation. 

david rockefeller jr. doesn't fall far from the tree, and is, as some would say, the comptroller of the frb.

ps. as the link describes in detail burr killed hamilton and subsequently merged the original bony into 'bank of the manhatten co.' in 1799

PROTOCOL No. 2

1. It is indispensable for our purpose that wars, so far as possible, should not result in territorial gains: war will thus be brought on to the economic ground, where the nations will not fail to perceive in the assistance we give the strength of our predominance, and this state of things will put both sides at the mercy of our international AGENTUR; which possesses millions of eyes ever on the watch and unhampered by any limitations whatsoever. Our international rights will then wipe out national rights, in the proper sense of right, and will rule the nations precisely as the civil law of States rules the relations of their subjects among themselves.

2. The administrators, whom we shall choose from among the public, with strict regard to their capacities for servile obedience, will not be persons trained in the arts of government, and will therefore easily become pawns in our game in the hands of men of learning and genius who will be their advisers, specialists bred and reared from early childhood to rule the affairs of the whole world. As is well known to you, these specialists of ours have been drawing to fit them for rule the information they need from our political plans from the lessons of history, from observations made of the events of every moment as it passes. The GOYIM are not guided by practical use of unprejudiced historical observation, but by theoretical routine without any critical regard for consequent results. We need not, therefore, take any account of them - let them amuse themselves until the hour strikes, or live on hopes of new forms of enterprising pastime, or on the memories of all they have enjoyed. For them let that play the principal part which we have persuaded them to accept as the dictates of science (theory). It is with this object in view that we are constantly, by means of our press, arousing a blind confidence in these theories. The intellectuals of the GOYIM will puff themselves up with their knowledges and without any logical verification of them will put into effect all the information available from science, which our AGENTUR specialists have cunningly pieced together for the purpose of educating their minds in the direction we want.

The one thing that I think was a problem for this group on their last attempt at world control WILL be eliminated this time. The one item that is standing in their way. IMO, they will not stop until they have every last ounce of GOLD.
Yours, mine, China's, Russia's.......ALL of it!

Australian bases for US(scratch that)meant NWO troops yesterday.
Hypersonic Bomb test results released today(able to hit any target in the world in under an hour)
Iran tomorrow.
That will complete their control of the worlds largest (readily available) oil supply. This is planned to shut down China. Put them back in a box.

"Didn’t you hear about the speech [Bernanke] gave in [front] of the military in Texas . . ."

============================

I may have got this wrong, but don't your military take some sort of oath about protecting America from its enemies, "foreign and domestic"?

So why did nobody in the audience shoot him? In fact, why didn't they ALL shoot him? They should be court-martialled immediately for dereliction of duty.

Here is the thing. The so called TBTF group of banks are not protected. My hedge fund has been short nearly all of the banks on the list, plus several that have disappeared including Lehman brothers, since late 2007 when we first went short Citibank on a reverse split adjusted basis of almost $550 a share. The portion of the fund that is short these institutions is up almost 62%. Which means that the average firm is down by that amount, for those not familiar with short selling hedge funds. Despite the platitudes that these guys are protected, in the market they are not. My expectation is that they will all ultimately hit $0 a share, reflective of their true book value which I believe is actually negative 3-5 times the aggregate book showing up across the entire TBTF population as of the last quarter's filing.

Just be patient and let us do our work. :)

I believe Ford had the distinction of at least being an elected U.S. Representative at the time he was nominated to replace Agnew as V.P. (although apparently anyone can be nominated under the 25th admendment), so not really an apples-to-apples comparison.  Of course, Nelson Rockefeller, who was not a U.S. Representative or Senator, was nomimated to replace Ford as V.P. when Ford succeeded Nixon, which is frightening to think about.

If you think about it, Ford was a de facto Prime Minister.

As I have been saying for almost 2 years, once you understand the level of corruption and criminality that exists in today's boardrooms and within CEO's and Corporate America today, you see how Penn State Situations arise.

 

Pretty soon, as I have stated there will be wholesale slaughter of Corporate BOD's, Politicians, and Financial assholes including those pricks in Academic circles.  Only then while these assholes "get it" and I am TOTALLY fine with bullets in those pricks heads.

 

If you are a jerk that cannot see that these people need to be "invited off the earth" then YOU ARE PART OF THE FUCKING PROBLEM!

I perceive two separate conflicts in America. The first will be the clueless, unproductive, hordes (maybe 1/3 to 1/2 of the population) who torch the big cities when the subsidies, food and supplies run out. This conflict will burn itself once its members starve to death. Afterward, there will be two different factions. On one side will be the federal government operating as a dictatorship or oligarchy hell bent on preserving the power structure. On the other side will be what's left of the productive people on which the federal government will prey upon. These productive people will band together to form the true rebellion.

Not sure if this is a fact or not, but read recently that there are 5 states in america, that taken together, have more licenced shooters that the sum of every army in the world, inlcuding the USA.

 

Regardless, you should still all be terrified of a few men in caves, cause THEY HATE YOUR FREEDOM.....THEY FREEDOM HATERS, WE FREEDOM LOVERS.
