The European Union EU “Dream” Wasn’t Even European, Bank Deposits Confiscation

The European Union (EU) “Dream” Wasn’t Even European (More Preview to Part II Ideological Subversion of the United States)

Recently, European Commission President Barroso expressed concerns that the European “dream” was under threat from a “resurgence of populism and nationalism.” The “threat” of Italy, Poland, Spain… resurging as sovereign nations? To the EU creators, yes, because the European Union “dream” wasn’t even European.

In September 2000 about two years after the euro became the official currency of the Eurozone, the Telegraph foreign press (link) reported DECLASSIFIED U.S. government documents from the 1950s and 1960s showed U.S. intelligence ran a campaign to advance a ‘united’ Europe, exert pressure to push Britain into the European state. In 1948 the American Committee for a United Europe (ACUE) was created that funded and directed the European federalist movement and covert operations in the European Youth Campaign (“Euro-federalists financed by US spy chiefs.” Telegraph Sept 19, 2000). One memorandum dated July 26, 1950, gives instructions for a campaign to promote a European parliament, signed by General William J. Donovan, head of the American wartime Office of Strategic Services, precursor of the CIA.

Another memo dated June 11, 1965, advises the vice-president of the European Economic Community, Robert Marjolin, to secretly push for the monetary union and suppress debate until “adoption of such proposals would become virtually inescapable.” The ACUE that funded these activities was funded by the Rockefeller Foundation and Ford Foundation.This followed the end of World War II as it was the same wealth behind these Foundations that funded and unleashed Hitler and the “Master Race” upon Europe. Over 400,000 U.S. military men and women died in World War II; total estimated 60-80 million deaths including civilians. One U.S. attorney general at the time used the term “treason”.

For the sake of your nation leave the euro, EU.

In the interests of the United States? As a preview to Part II Ideological Subversion, the Rockefeller Foundation and Ford Foundation together with the Carnegie Endowment were under congressional investigation for their funding subversion of the United States. Confirmed communist spy Alger Hiss was president of the Carnegie Endowment and David Rockefeller joined the Board at his “invitation”. One of the documents found at the Foundation in the early 1900s was their plan to take control of the U.S. State Department. The timing of the design to corral nations in Europe into the EU commenced as several generations in the United States had been deliberately “dumbed-down” and subverted by the 1960s to Marxism-Leninism, the ideology of communism with fascism at the top. In the upcoming Part II, consider who assailed and halted the investigations. Yuri Bezmenov (Part I Ideological Subversion) Soviet subversion expert-turned defector warned U.S. intelligence, politicians and the media and realized he was talking to people who wanted to prevent the American people from understanding the truth (video).

Consider the parallel plunder of the United States and the Eurozone countries in Run Cyprus! Leave the Euro. Consider that what was put forth to the people – the euro – as integration of the European economy was subverted to control.

“Who does what, who decides what, who controls whom and what? And where are we heading to?”—Barroso in earlier quote on April 23, 2013. It seems the answers to these question were designed some 60 years ago as its true intent leaks out from time to time. In 1992 Strobe Talbott, former President Clinton’s Deputy Secretary of State and current member of the Council on Foreign Relations and President of the Brookings Institution, wrote in Time Magazine: “Nationhood as we know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single, global authority” (“America Abroad: The Birth of the Global Nation.” July 20, 1992).

There it is: Aspirations for the “One World” Order, the “single global authority” or as Bezmenov revealed “world domination”. No Mexico. No Spain. No Indonesia. No Australia. No Poland. No France. No Ukraine. No Italy. No Turkey. No India. No Pakistan. No Malaysia. No U.K. No Iran and so on…Nationhood obsolete. Just states asking permission from the ‘single global authority’ to retain some rights. Kissinger expounds on the virtues of this ‘single global authority’ in 2009.

No China? No Russia? It seems there was a minor miscalculation.

The largest contributors to the Brookings Institution are the same Ford Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and John L. Thornton. Thornton is the Brookings Chair of the Board and former President and co-CEO of Goldman Sachs. The Brookings Institution is also where Robert Rubin and Lawrence Summers – with former Federal Reserve Bank Chairman Alan Greenspan – who were instrumental in the proliferation of derivatives that collapsed the U.S. economy gather to promote economic growth.

Goldman Sachs is co-founder of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR, Robert Rubin its co-chairman). Otmar Issing, co-creator of the euro is International Advisor of Goldman Sachs. Rubin, Summers, Greenspan, along with Goldman Sachs’s CEO Lloyd Blankfein, JP Morgan Chase’s CEO Jamie Dimon, Zbigniew Brzezinski of the Grand Chessboard designs on Europe, and U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner congregate at the CFR with five Rockefellers (whose Chase acquired JP Morgan, shareholder-owner of the Federal Reserve Bank); also CFR members are former CEOs of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (Daniel Mudd, Richard Syron respectively; Frank Raines of Fannie Mae) and Maurice “Hank” Greenberg of AIG – heads of three institutions at the heart of the 2008 collapse.

It appears the CFR has the greatest concentration of the worst failures in the history of the United States, the collapse of its financial system, or its most successful depending on the vantage point. In the previous article, “The Federal Reserve Bank is Naked,” consider in the 2009 QE I mortgage bond purchase program how it is possible that the Federal Reserve Bank paid a handful of its banks $57.7 billion for a $600 million mortgage bond from the 1980s and multiple other similar FRB bond purchases that totaled $1.25 trillion. U.S. State Department Secretary Clinton-U.S. presidential candidate expressed their fortunate proximity to the CFR building as that is where the Department obtains U.S. foreign policy (video), presumably with assistance from Henry Kissinger wielding U.S. military men as “dumb, stupid animals to be used” as pawns for foreign policy (Woodward & Bernstein. (1976). The Final Days, p.194).

From their financing and buildup of the Soviet Union to Hitler’s Third Reich takes us to Bechtel’s build-up of China since the 1950s (see footnote on Hegelian dialectic below), that brings up a curious case at Los Alamos National Laboratory in the late 1990s. In Part II we look at their interests in Russian and Asian art and culture (with AIG’s CIA-esque Maurice “Hank” Greenburg), and an interesting battle over oil that revealed a rather epic Who’s Who of the “One World.” Much has been written about the revolving door between Wall Street and the SEC, the White House and the State Department but perhaps that should be extended to the CIA.

The Telegraph reported the World Gold Council advises Italy to hand over its gold reserves to force a change in EMU policy (“Italy should use its gold reserves to force a change in EMU policy.” Telegraph May 2, 2013).

In place of gold, are Italy, Portugal, Spain…perhaps dusting off those guillotines?

 

 

[Economics Professor Antony Sutton  (1976. Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler) suggested 90% of the Council on Foreign Relations is an outer ring composed of “hangers-on and social climbers”, perhaps the equivalent to what Soviet KGB subversion expert Yuri Bezmenov calls “useful idiots” [Part I Ideological Subversion of the United States]. The CFR members include a Who’s Who of economic academia, whose American Economic Association was annexed to their creation of the Federal Reserve Bank, which Sutton observed has produced more “bootlickers” than researchers. For what Sutton uncovered in declassifying State Department records and research at Stanford University, he faced pressure from the White House, told by Glenn Campbell, President Reagan’s advisor over the CIA, that he was a “problem” and his academic career “you will not survive”.

Sutton traced their roots back to Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, the German philosopher for State supremacy or Fascism, whose ideas inspired Hitler as well as Karl Marx and Friedrich Engel’s The Communist Manifesto. The enamored wealthy imported this to the United States and financed its propagation, which takes us to Part II…

Their Hegelian dialectic creates conflict, pits countries against the other while financing and controlling the process, and out of destruction and “crises” consolidate control. It is how conflict is created between the left and right in the United States to keep the masses preoccupied while controlling the parameters of conflict and thus the outcome, always towards more State control.

In Part II, consider which Ivy League university in the United States was the reputed “nursery for communism” that required naked photos of its freshmen from which a core of its establishment went on to create and fund ideas of the “Master Race” that led to the sterilization of 60,000 “defective” Americans even before Hitler’s gas chambers, to financing his Third Reich, subversion of the U.S., the creation of EU, initiated wars in Iraq, Afghanistan …. ]. The plunder…

 

Bank Deposits Confiscation in the United States  – The Cyprus Blueprint Implemented

Update to the previous article, Run Cyprus! Leave the Euro (April 1, 2013). The Telegraph foreign press reported on April 28, 2013 (link) that Bank of Cyprus has implemented the depositor “bail-in”:

“Bank of Cyprus said it had converted 37.5pc of deposits exceeding €100,000 into “class A” shares [In exchange for depositors not getting their money, depositors are given stocks of the bankrupt bank], with an additional 22.5pc held as a buffer for possible conversion in the future…Another 30pc would be temporarily frozen and held as deposits, the bank said [Depositor can not take money out].”

The Irish Times reported €4.2 billion in customer deposits was raided (link). The “bail-in” is along the lines outlined in a joint paper by the FDIC and Bank of England in December 2012 titled, “Resolving Globally Active, Systemically Important, Financial Institutions” and other documents that suggests several years in planning.

The U.S. media has remained rather silent on what is being planned for the American public. When the time comes, money left in the banks will be taken, as now bank depositors have become unsecured lenders to the banks; 401(k) and other retirement plans are in line. Take GDP and subtract the trillions in QE and The Black Hole reveals itself – it is not complicated. There is no solution to the debt and OTC derivative problems, assuming a solution is the objective.

 

 

Yes, it is true: “Gold is dead.” (update)

On the price plunges in gold, silver. Yes, it is true: “Gold is dead.”

The U.S. Mint reports gold at Fort Knox has been entombed under “16,000 cubic feet of granite, 4,200 cubic yards of concrete, 750 tons of reinforcing steel, and 670 tons of structural steel” watched over by heavily armed guards, and army units totaling 30,000 soldiers, with associated tanks, armored personnel carriers, attack helicopters, and artillery. Gold rests in peace (somewhere), oblivious to the chart seizures around its death(s).

UPDATE on the ‘somewhere’. “More than $66 Billion in Gold Missing from Fort Knox.” Globe December 15, 1981. (Credited to SilverDoctors.com)

Gold rests in peace (somewhere) … During the 1970s period noted in the article, U.S. President Richard Nixon (1969 to 1974) closed the gold window in 1971; countries could no longer redeem U.S. dollars for gold. President Nixon appointed as U.S. Treasury Secretary John B. Connally, who accepted the position on the condition that “if I’m going to do that, I think you [Nixon] ought to find something for George Bush to do”(Barnes. (2006). Barn Burning, Barn Building, p.189). In 1971 U.S. Treasury Secretary Connally told a group of European finance ministers concerned about the export of dollar inflation that the U.S. dollar “is our currency, but your problem.” The previous posts indicate the direction of the problem has changed, as reflected in the severity of the past week’s orchestrated plunge in gold and silver. The 1981 Globe article raises questions about how much, if any, gold remains. Even before the 1970s, gold flowed out of Fort Knox.

In 1956, the Chicago Daily Tribune’s Washington bureau chief reported Fort Knox vaults $12.843 billion in gold, which at the standard 400 oz. bar and $35 per ounce at the time would be equivalent to 10,400 metric tons, or at the official price of $42.22, about 8,620 metric tons. Fort Knox held slightly over half of the $21.8 billion gold holdings in the United States, half of the gold foreign-owned.  In 1962  half a billion dollars of gold at Fort Knox was moved to an undisclosed location (“U.S. Taps Gold Supply Stored in Fort Knox.” Chicago Daily Tribune Aug 18, 1962). In July 1966 the Chicago Tribune’s chief again reported $11 billion in gold was withdrawn from Fort Knox, some of which could have been purchased by private hands – suppose at the official price of $42.22, that would be slightly under 7,400 metric tons; Switzerland alone took $1 billion (“U.S. Finances Gold Raids at Fort Knox.” July 22, 1966).

 About six months later the Chicago Tribune reported “amidst a cloud of security Fort Knox sent about $240 million worth of gold to Britain” (“Ship Gold Secretly to U.K. Bank.” Dec 1, 1967), and just three months after that, Continue reading

Russia’s President Vladimir Putin Speaks of ‘Unipolar World’, One World Order

In my previous post, “Quantitative Easing 0-1-2-3∞ & The Federal Reserve’s Love Affair with its Banks and Mortgage Bonds: Levitating The Black Hole,” the data points to the system being levitated by faith-based accounting and money printing since the banking and financial collapse in 2008.

We are entering a stage of open money printing that other countries recognize as accelerating (unofficial) U.S. currency devaluation as the media whips the public into inflation-deflation voodoo. Inflation is the printing of dollars beyond the capacity to earn them through the production of goods and services; this has been substituted in the past decade with the Federal Reserve system’s largest member banks’ production of over $1,000 trillion in derivatives – legal financial contracts based on money and assets that do not exist. The term currency devaluation would scare most people, so it is called ‘inflation’.

Comment: I was asked what was meant about devaluation, as many countries are engaged in currency wars, i.e. competitive devaluation. While this is the case, some devalue from a position of relative strength, for instance to maintain a competitive edge in export trade. Others devalue indirectly for example, through QE, from a position of relative weakness as currency is printed as a remaining means to pay or monetize debt, gain advantage in trade, or perhaps to achieve other objectives. There are internal effects in how it affects the purchasing power of consumers and external effects in how it affects exchange rates, how it affects capital flows to other countries, as the challenge here is the world reserve currency that is the international medium for trade settlement. Other ways to devalue could be intervening in the currency markets or official declaration, and other less obvious ways, etc. In the context of the scale of the banking and financial crisis-collapse since 2007/2008 and indebtedness of many countries facing severe recessions, the ‘currency wars’ signals volatility and instability in the monetary system. 

The quantity of dollars (or euros) printed to levitate the system is unlimited but there is a constraint on time as other countries move to insulate themselves from the effects of The Black Hole. This includes alternative currency arrangements and quiet accumulation into gold, what was the domain of the U.S. dollar (U.S. Treasury bonds) as the world reserve currency – the accepted medium for international payment of goods and services, a requirement for oil.

Let’s look at the big picture to see the far-reaching consequences of what is unfolding here to consider its intersection with global security issues. Another follow-up post indicates the shifts have been quietly underway and what that may look like for future generations, as we will return to other mechanisms being used to levitate the system.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s Prepared Remarks at the 43rd Munich Security Conference (February 10, 2007)

A conference of world leaders in Munich, Germany. The transcript is also in the Washington Post (February 12, 2007). There is a mention of hiding missiles under pillows and market manipulation. (Disappeared from You Tube LINK). Here is a copy 43rdMunichConferencePutin.mp4 and Transcript.

Putin (in Russian): Thank you very much dear Madam Federal Chancellor, Mr  Teltschik, ladies and gentlemen! I am truly grateful to be invited to such a representative conference that has assembled politicians, military officials, entrepreneurs and experts from more than 40 nations.

This conference’s structure allows me to avoid excessive politeness and the need to speak in roundabout, pleasant but empty diplomatic terms.

This conference’s format will allow me to say what I really think about international security problems. And if my comments seem unduly polemical, pointed or inexact to our colleagues, then I would ask you not to get angry with me. After all, this is only a  conference. And I hope that after the first two or three minutes of my speech Mr Teltschik will not turn on the red light over there.

Therefore. It is well known that international security comprises much more than issues relating to military and political stability. It involves the stability of the global economy, overcoming poverty, economic security and developing a dialogue between civilisations. This universal, indivisible character of security is expressed as the basic principle that “security for one is security for all”.

As Franklin D. Roosevelt said during the first few days that the Second World War was breaking out: “When peace has been broken anywhere, the peace of all countries everywhere is in danger.” These words remain topical today. Incidentally, the theme of our conference — global crises, global responsibility — exemplifies this.

[The “Unipolar World”]

Only two decades ago the world was ideologically and economically divided and it was the huge strategic potential of two superpowers that ensured global security. This global stand-off pushed the sharpest economic and social problems to the margins of the international community’s and the world’s agenda.

And, just like any war, the Cold War left us with live ammunition, figuratively speaking. I am referring to ideological stereotypes, double standards and other typical aspects of Cold War bloc thinking.

The unipolar world that had been proposed after the Cold War did not take place either. The history of humanity certainly has gone through unipolar periods and seen aspirations to world supremacy. And what hasn’t happened in world history?

However, what is a unipolar world? However one might embellish this term, at the end of the day it refers to one type of situation, namely one centre of authority, one centre of force, one centre of decision-making.

It is world in which there is one master, one sovereign. And at the end of the day this is pernicious not only for all those within this system, but also for the sovereign itself because it destroys itself from within. And this certainly has nothing in common with democracy. Because, as you know, democracy is the power of the majority in light of the interests and opinions of the minority.

Incidentally, Russia – we – are constantly being taught about democracy. But for some reason those who teach us do not want to learn themselves. Continue reading
