Eurasia, the “World Island”

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | June 24, 2015

Interesting, but lengthy analysis of Mackinder and Zbig’s theory of the World Island from 2006 in the link below. Though Eurasia may not possess the specific strategic qualities identified by Mackinder, it is nonetheless the major game on today’s geopolitical stage, bringing together Russia and China while the Anglo-American Establishment (represented by US/UK) is being left out in the cold.

The World Island

As a result of my Anglo-American education, most maps I grew up with had the USA as the center of the known universe with the globe slightly tilted to display more of the northern hemisphere. And of course across ‘the pond’ was Western Europe. However, if we reposition our vantage point to be centered over central Asia, the world takes on an entirely new flavor. This view is a view of the great ‘World Island’ (including China, Russia, Middle East, Africa, India, Europe, the *stans, etc.) and is what our geopolitical planners and of course Russia, China and others are keenly aware of. From the late 16th century to WWI (World War One), the British extended and maintained its empire by controlling the seas. After the Empire’s pentacle of power marked by WWI, the control of the seas was bequeathed to Briton’s Prodigal child, the USA. Implicit in controlling the seas is the desire to control the land masses behind the seas since it is far easier and less expensive to control the seas and project power from the seas than to attempt to control all the land inland. So, from WWII to present, this has been the USA’s default position. Control of the seas was essential to control those who lived on the land behind the seas.

China and Russia fully understand they are no match for the military might of the USA, but the USA is heavily committed to the old, outdated British paradigm of controlling the seas to control the land. Zbig and others recognized this one dimensional weakness and set about new methods and strategies (including Gladio Operations, Color Revolutions, NGOs, forward NATO bases, USAID, World Bank, IMF, etc) to contain their existing vassal states and to bring Russia and China under control or at a minimum limit their ability to contest the primacy of the mono-polar world of the Anglo-American power structure. If you look at a map of US Military and NATO bases, you will quickly discover the USA’s plan of encircling and containing Russia and China.

Russia and China are pragmatic and realize that they cannot control the seas or directly contest the USA’s massive military; so have decided to go inland, rehydrate the old Silk Road and build a new financial infrastructure without the Anglo-American Establishment’s permission.

“A victorious Roman general, when he entered the city, amid all the head-turning splendor of a `Triumph,’ had behind him on the chariot a slave who whispered into his ear that he was mortal. When our statesmen are in conversation with the defeated enemy, some airy cherub should whisper to them from time to time this saying: Who rules East Europe commands the Heartland; Who rules the Heartland commands the World-Island; Who rules the World-Island commands the World.” –Sir Halford Mackinder, 1919

“Paradoxically, our attempts to prevent a Eurasian anti-American alliance may make that outcome more likely. As Steven Walt has persuasively shown, imbalances of threat, not imbalances of power, drive alliances together. Our attempts to project power into the Heartland, if done clumsily, can heighten threat perceptions in its capitals, making such counterproductive alliances more attractive.” – Christopher J. Fettweis

U.S. Cedes Sovereignty To New Authority

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | June 23, 2015

Using the same template that created the EU (European Union), globalists and their hired technocrats are swiftly neutering the U.S. Congress, the U.S. Constitution and the American people with the recent ‘fast-tracking’ of secretive Obamatrade deals; which have amazingly passed both houses of Congress without so much as a whimper from any but Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL).

Jeff Sessions: TPP Cedes U.S. Sovereignty Permanently To New Authority: “Same Language Used To Start EU”

Curious why any U.S. Congressman would vote so eagerly to limit their own power while permanently damaging the financial vitality of what is left of the American middle class; but the “yea” votes received almost $200 million and of course most have not even bothered to read the trade agreement, since it is assumed by ‘the powers that shouldn’t be’ a fait accompli.  The American middle class, once represented the strength and vitality of the United States, but no more. Gone are the remnants of the free market or honest price discovery in our markets, replaced by the crony capitalism of insider elites and their privileged, government-protected and sustained monopolies; whose purpose is to drive out any and all honest competition.  But like Obamacare before it, one must pass the trade bill to find out what is in it. These secret trade agreements –taken together– paint a very worrisome picture for the future vitality and independence of the average American worker and put another nail into the coffin of the U.S. as a nation-state. Additionally, these so called free trade agreements further shred the US Constitution by imposing an extra-constitutional, unelected body that as in the EU will effectively create law and pass judgement on anything having to do with trade of products, services or the movement of people.  One need look no further than the Trilateral Commission or the Bilderberg Group to understand the genesis or the end goal of these secret agreements: Total world domination bringing together under one control structure the EU, The North America Union and the Trans Pacific including Oceania.

Apparently some holdouts against the hegemony of this Unipolar world structure still believe in the nation-state and are therefore not as eager as the U.S. Congress to auction off their nations to the globalists: These include China, Russia, Iran, Syria and other hold-outs. To counter this Unipolar world, Russia and China are building their own financial global infrastructure and trade agreements as fast as they can. To bring Russia into compliance, the U.S. and NATO are threatening a hot war on Russia’s doorstep, just itching for a fight. The propaganda against Putin and for war in the West is thick as molasses, yet after all the recent pointless wars, many Americans are eager to believe this latest false narrative.

Over the years, the U.S. Constitution has been a major thorn in the side of the globalists, but no more. This week’s vote by both houses of congress to bypass the U.S. Constitution in full view of the American people fully demonstrate there is no fear by our elected leaders of public backlash. Already the 1st, 2nd and 4th Amendments are under serious assault; and with UN Agenda-21 (2030 Agenda) in full swing in almost every county in the USA, private property rights may soon succumb to the social engineering of a people asleep.

There is a long history of missteps leading up to this week’s silent coup d’état of America. Major pivot points would be handing over the supply and control of this nation’s money to a few private bankers in the 1913 Federal Reserve Act; the ingestion of Nazis into the OSS/CIA after WWII; mission creep of the U.S. Federal Government though the constant abuse of the 10th Amendment, the assassination of JFK, the attacks of 9/11 and countless illegal, undeclared wars. There are many other pivot points including U.S. bankers’ and political leaders’ support for the likes of Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin and Hitler; Operation Gladio, the repeal of the Glass–Steagall legislation, etc. but the biggest failure rests solely with the ignorance of the American people and their willingness to continually believe the lies promulgated by the U.S. Government and its state propaganda organs in the news and entertainment media. But to be fair, most Americans work all day and therefore have little time left to discover the facts for themselves.

The Corruption of Science – beware of the white lab coat

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | May 26, 2015

“Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts.” – Richard Feynman

Scientist in Lab Coat

Scientist in Lab Coat

I’m a scientist at heart, so why do I love to ridicule my fellow scientists so much? I think it’s because of their highly exalted and unassailable position in our so called modern era (1946 – present) and because so many are sellouts who serve the selfish agendas of the moneyed “powers that shouldn’t be” and more particularly many serve down-right evil corporations that just happen to sign the front side of their paychecks, provide grants and donate huge sums to our likewise exalted and corrupted universities …  and it’s also partly due to the fact so many people have been trained that if someone in a lab coat says something then it has to be true. Turn off your brain… case settled.

Though many scientists are waking up to the systemic fraud and deception throughout our scientific community, the average citizen is completely unaware.

And it appears that the ‘Scientific American’ wants to have it both ways. First they are more than willing to point out the fraud, yet they are themselves a big part of the fraud perpetrated on the hapless public as evidenced by their two articles below. One supports GMO with trickery and sleight of hand while the other article complains about ‘An Epidemic of False Claims’ in scientific studies. You can’t have it both ways, Mr. Scientific American.

I’ve been reading the Scientific American since I was twelve, yes twelve years old; though I can’t claim I understood what I was reading at that age. With all the colorful diagrams and mathematical formulas, I just knew they were talking about something important and wanted to know what it was.

So what is the evidence that the once exalted Scientific American is one of the worst offenders? If you read their article below in support of GMOs, you will discover that they have munged or commingled several terms thereby obfuscating their meanings to suit their preconceived conclusions.

I really get the promise of GMO providing food to the hungry (though recent data has disproved this benefit), but I would prefer to use artificial or natural selection, not transginic bioengineering using gene-splicing and gene insertion from different species. I just don’t trust Monsanto and now I don’t trust SA. I think this article represents the best of bad science: The SA article cleverly commingles several terms: Selective breeding, Artificial selection, Bioengineering and GMO and would therefore have the reader believe they are the same. They are not. And there is a huge difference between Cisgenic and Transgenic. I would prefer Cisgenic only because I don’t think man is smart enough to have a clue about what he is doing. Of course we need to have GMO labeling. I don’t care if my food has been selectively bred: examples are the Delicious apple, the Hereford cow, etc. because in selective breeding you are breeding cow to cow or apple to apple; NOT cow to virus or cow to rat or pig or cow to cockroach…or some other unknown concoction Monsanto may have created. I want to know if there is virus, bacteria, transgenic DNA/RNA in my food and I want to know if there is Glyphosate a.k.a. Roundup® on my food and I want to know if it is safe. Another undisclosed issue is that when GMO corn pollinates adjacent fields of heirloom corn, it destroys for all time the genetics of that heirloom corn. On a global stage, this could be devastating.

Another glaring flaw in this SA article is that they seem content on referring to “other” authorities.   Just give me the science … after all aren’t you Scientific American?

 And from the Lancet, we have the following …

www.thelancet.com
Vol 385   April 11, 2015 by Richard Horton
Offline: What is medicine’s 5 sigma? (PDF)
“A lot of what is published is incorrect.” I’m not allowed to say who made this remark because we were asked to observe Chatham House rules. We were also asked not to take photographs of slides. Those who worked for government agencies pleaded that their comments especially remain unquoted, since the forthcoming UK election meant they were living in “purdah”—a chilling state where severe restrictions on freedom of speech are placed on anyone on the government’s payroll. Why the paranoid concern for secrecy and non-attribution? Because this symposium—on the reproducibility and reliability of biomedical research, held at the Wellcome Trust in London last week—touched on one of the most sensitive issues in science today: the idea that something has gone fundamentally wrong with one of our greatest human creations.”

HughPickens.com … writes in today’s Slash Dot the following brilliant little ditty…

“Richard Horton writes that a recent symposium on the reproducibility and reliability of biomedical research discussed one of the most sensitive issues in science today: the idea that something has gone fundamentally wrong with science (PDF), one of our greatest human creations. The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness. According to Horton, editor-in-chief of The Lancet, a United Kingdom-based medical journal, the apparent endemicity of bad research behavior is alarming. In their quest for telling a compelling story, scientists too often sculpt data to fit their preferred theory of the world or retrofit hypotheses to fit their data.”

“Can bad scientific practices be fixed? Part of the problem is that no-one is incentivized to be right. Instead, scientists are incentivized to be productive and innovative. Tony Weidberg says that the particle physics community now invests great effort into intensive checking and rechecking of data prior to publication following several high-profile errors. By filtering results through independent working groups, physicists are encouraged to criticize. Good criticism is rewarded. The goal is a reliable result, and the incentives for scientists are aligned around this goal. “The good news is that science is beginning to take some of its worst failings very seriously,” says Horton. “The bad news is that nobody is ready to take the first step to clean up the system.”

The Death of Money

James Rickards

James Rickards

Brilliant analysis by Rickards in the video below.   Regrettably,  I own his book, but have not read it. Great explanation of complexity theory and complex systems and the operations of the IMF; however, Rickards is also acting –possibly unwittingly– as a gatekeeper of the establishment’s mythology.  Not sure he intends to be a gatekeeper or if he is just too focused on his own work to look at the documented evidence of past and present real conspiracies, but he definitely needs to reexamine some of his assumptions.

I also agree with his characterization of the government being too inept to construct a conspiracy on its own, but this is the proverbial ‘straw horse’ since no serious person would ever dispute this claim.  The real conspiracies can be found in the elite’s own writings and by their actions. It’s not the inefficient and inept government organ itself, but rather those in positions of power and influence who manipulate the government.

He seems to be afraid of the CIA-weaponized term ‘Conspiracy’. Please See: CIA Document 1035-960; yet he apparently doesn’t know the definition of a conspiracy.

Interesting to note, that he says “this is not conspiracy stuff”, and then goes on to describe several conspiracies.

Legal Definition of Conspiracy:
An agreement between two or more persons to engage jointly in an unlawful or criminal act, or an act that is innocent in itself but becomes unlawful when done by the combination of actors.

The Elements of Conspiracy Agreement:
The essence of conspiracy is the agreement between two or more persons. A single person acting alone cannot be guilty of conspiracy.

The New Bipolar World Order

India’s Ambassador to China, Ashok Kantha

India’s Ambassador to China, Ashok Kantha

As Russia and China move closer together both strategically and economically to counterbalance U.S. aggression, other nations are following. As Russia and China setup the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), BRICS, the SWIFT analog, and the conversion of RMB into an international reserve currency based on the introduction of its gold standard, other nations follow. Here are a few unanswered questions about this move to a new bipolar NWO:

  1. Will these efforts of China and Russia actually work?
  2. Will the New, NWO offer a counterbalance to the existing ‘Anglo-American’ NWO? or
  3. are the existing global elites merely hollowing out America to transfer their vast wealth into the new China-Centric NWO structure?

CCTVNews:  Speaking to CCTV, India’s Ambassador to China, Ashok Kantha, has said that the two countries need to take their economic relationship forward. He expects the two sides to sign more than 20 business deals during Indian PM Narendra Modi’s visit to China: China & India likely to ink over 20 deals during Modi’s visit

Important to note that the IMF and the World Bank resulted from the Bretton Woods system designed to rebuild the international economic system while World War II was still raging (1–22 July 1944). Since 1944, the IMF and the World Bank have transmuted into economic weapons used to asset-strip targeted countries for the benefit of a few multinational corporations and then control sovereign nations. (See Confessions of an Economic Hit Man). BTW, it has been estimated that there will be a 40% drop in the overall living standard in the USA when the US Dollar loses its reserve currency status. From my perspective, it appears that U.S. bullying of Russia to surrender their sovereignty to the Anglo-American financial structure has backfired and caused China and Russia to make plans to replace the US and it’s vassal states in tow. Many of these vassal states are in a process of abandoning the good ship USA while joining the new China-Russia paradigm; keeping one foot in the old system and one in the new, to hedge their bets.

Putin’s Number One Enemy?

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | May 11, 2015

Vladimir Putin

Vladimir Putin

Below is a fascinating –and I believe important speech– by Putin critic Mr. Bill Browder given on April 20th, 2015 at The Chicago Council on Global Affairs entitled Putin’s Number One Enemy?.  It is fascinating, because of the very personal and up close accounts and the unique delivery style of Mr. Browder; and it is important, because it provides some insight and detail on Putin and his relationship to the criminal oligarchs he must manage to stay in power.  I think  Mr. Browder identifies key elements necessary for Russia to prosper as a nation.  Those elements are the rule of law and the ideal of personal property rights.  It has been proven back in the Soviet era that a single pig farmer who owned his land was ten times more productive than a large collective of the state.  individual protections by law and the right to own land are primary for any society to prosper in my opinion.  These issues also point to what is wrong with America today and how America has strayed from its founding documents.  The Russian people are striving for a new and better way, yet the oligarchs –as in America– seek to secure monopolies and unfair advantage.  A fatal flaw in Mr. Browder’s speech is his unfortunate and mistaken belief that Putin invaded Ukraine, but much of the remaining is well worth your time.

While Mr. Browder is affable, likable and seemingly very approachable, he definitely has an insider’s pedigree evidenced by his massive fortune, attendance at Davos and his personal friendship with former Managing Director of Goldman Sachs Muneer A. Satter who provides the introduction to this speech.  Not only this, the money laundering bank, HSBC, serves as the trustee and manager at Browder’s Hermitage Capital Management Company. BTW,  HSBC was fined almost $2 billion for laundering money for the Mexico’s Sinaloa cartel and Colombia’s Norte del Valle cartel.

And of course you should know I can’t agree with some of the default positions of the sponsor (The Chicago Council on Global Affairs) regarding Russian aggression against Ukraine which is a myth whipped up by Western globalists and their vassal media organs. The Chicago Council on Global Affairs, was founded in 1922 and includes a who’s who of elites from Goldman Sachs, the Federal Reserve, Boeing and token political lightweight elite wannabes like Michelle Obama.

Show notes from The Chicago Council on Global Affairs:

“In 2013 foreign investment in Russia reached a record high of $94 billion and Bloomberg Business called it one of the “50 Best Countries to do Business In.” Just one year later, the Ukraine crisis decimated Russia’s international standing, and the country’s economic fortunes plummeted in tandem with the value of the ruble. As the relationship between Russia and the West continues to deteriorate, economic problems appear of little concern to Vladimir Putin—a fact that former hedge-fund manager Bill Browder attributes to the endemic corruption among top Russian officials. Since 2005, Browder has publicly lambasted Putin for leading a regime he characterizes as brutal and corrupt, comparing it with a widespread criminal enterprise. Can Russia’s aggressive actions be attributed solely to Mr. Putin, or do they instead represent a return to the politics of Russia’s past? And as companies continue to invest in Russia and other emerging markets, what lessons can they take from Browder’s brush with Vladimir Putin’s Russia?”

Putin’s Number One Enemy?  The Chicago Council on Global Affairs (Apr 20, 2015):

Mr Browder has also written a book about his experience in Russia entitled Red Notice: A True Story of High Finance, Murder, and One Man’s Fight for Justice.

The Big Picture

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | May 1, 2015

David Brown

David Brown

Having read the Antony Sutton books James Corbett references in his excellent podcast (below), certainly helps provide for a much better historical context; and helps to fill in the gaps in any story this big.  As usual, this is a well-researched video/podcast that will provide a deeper understanding of the ruling oligarchies, and also an understanding of the way James vets and conducts his research. Many hours/years put into this short piece.   If you are familiar with Antony C. Sutton’s and Carroll Quigley’s work, all of this will make much more sense.   In any event, Hope you enjoy and benefit.

James Corbett: “Military tensions, cyber espionage accusations, a brewing currency war; with every passing day, the headlines paint a convincing portrait of an emerging cold war between China and the West. But is this surface level reality the whole picture, or is there a deeper level to this conflict? Is China an opponent to the New World Order global governmental system or a witting collaborator with it? Join us in this in-depth edition of The Corbett Report podcast as we explore China’s position in the New World Order.”

China and the New World Order…

A final thought: So what is the Big Picture?  First off, the state does not equal the oligarch. One oligarch will play, maneuver and influence one or more states into a particular configuration to his liking to influence relatively current events. More often one or more oligarchs will combine their efforts for a particular goal. See the specific techniques used by Cecil Rhodes and Lord Milner of the Milner group. For the longer-term strategies, they use the outer rings of the kindergarten, along with the media, prestigious Universities rewriting history if necessary by cultivating and seducing those bright minds it discovers and supports financially for doing the right thing. Remember, they are the establishment.  All other opinions are suspect.  Quigley gives specific, documented examples of how this is constructed and how it is accomplished in the real world. Joe Plummer does an excellent job making some of these techniques up-close, personal and real in his novel ‘Leaving the Illusion’. It is important to remember that despite the position of the state and the people within the state, the oligarchs have much more in common with each other than they do with their respective citizens. The state represents pieces on the chessboard and they are not generally emotionally vested in a state the same way commoners are. Many in Lord Milner’s day did, however, believe that the British culture was superior; today’s oligarchs are less inclusive and represent a ‘break-away’ civilization. Most of these people show all the love and care and remorse of your typical psychopath and LITERALLY see most of their fellow citizens as bugs to be squished beneath their feet. To most of these folks, we are worthless breeders and eaters consuming their resources.  –David Brown

Postscript and additional clarification: Let’s see if I can deconstruct my comments above just a bit: My first comment was that the state does not equal the Oligarch. What this means is that to a certain extent, the state and those who support and believe in the state do not necessarily have parallel agendas with the real power centers. For example, within the state, you have true believers of the state’s authority and legitimacy in the general population, in universities, authorities, politicians, bureaucrats and the trained technocrats (who BTW work for the oligarchy without realizing it); and of course, certain elements in the defense apparatus. So this collection of folks in say China or Russia can have disagreements with their analogues in say the USA, etc. But what none of these folks are aware of, is the real power which controls the overall vector (direction and force). These folks can be seen as looking at just part of the elephant without ever seeing the entire beast and thus the beast is not recognized for what it is. This is what Quigley calls rings within rings.

Additional NFO:

At least 18 of the Immortals’ descendants own or run entities linked to companies registered offshore, including the British Virgin Islands and the Cayman Islands, as well as Liberia and other jurisdictions that offer secrecy, the reporting showed.

While the Immortals vilified the “bourgeois individualism” of capitalist nations, almost half of their heirs lived, studied or worked abroad, some in Australia, England and France. The princelings were among the first to travel and study overseas, giving them an advantage not available to ordinary Chinese.

The U.S., which established diplomatic ties with Communist China in 1979, was the top destination: At least 23 of the Immortals’ descendants and their spouses studied there, including three at Harvard University and four at Stanford University, according to the Bloomberg data. At least 18 worked for U.S. entities, including American International Group Inc. and the law firm White & Case LLP, which hired one of Deng’s grandsons. Twelve owned property in the U.S.

There is no accepted measure for the degree of control the princelings exert on the economy. Academics who study China estimate that wealth and influence is concentrated in the hands of as few as 14 and as many as several hundred families.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2012-12-26/immortals-beget-china-capitalism-from-citic-to-godfather-of-golf

“MAO WAS A YALIE – Back in 1903, Yale Divinity School established a number of schools and hospitals throughout China that were collectively known as ‘Yale in China.’ It has since been shown that ‘Yale in China’ was an intelligence network whose purpose was to destroy the republican movement of Sun Yat-sen on behalf of the Anglo-American Establishment. The Anglo-American “Establishment” hated Sun, because he wanted to develop China. On the other hand, they loved the Chinese communists because they intended to keep China backward, and were committed to growing dope. One of ‘Yale in China’s’ most important students was Mao Zedong.

“During World War II, ‘Yale in China’ was a primary instrument used by the U.S. Establishment and its Office of Strategic Services (OSS) to install the Maoists into power. ‘Yale in China’ was run by OSS operative Reuben Holden, the husband of Bush’s cousin, and also a member of Skull and Bones.

“The Maoists made China into the world’s largest opium producer. “‘Yale in China’ was also closely associated with the New York-based Union Theological Seminary, which has been a center for U.S. subversion of Asia (literal wolves in sheep’s clothing – Branton). Every prominent radical leader operating in Korea today, for example, was trained at Union Theological. Union Theological was dominated for twenty years by Henry Sloane Coffin, a U.S. intelligence executive from the Sloane and Coffin families. He was a Skull and Bones member as were a dozen of his relatives.

“Nor should it be forgotten that Averell Harriman, the former Ambassador to Moscow who did so much to build up the Soviet Union, was a member of Skull and Bones. Harriman was also a business partner of Prescott Bush, Sr., the father of Maoist enthusiast George Bush.”
Note: This Skull and Bones – Communist connection is also confirmed by geopolitical and economicsresearchers such as Dr. Antony Sutton (Sutton’s books may be obtained through THE PATRIOT REVIEW., 33836 SE Kelso Rd. #6., P.O. Box 596., Boring, OR 97099; OR via THE MIDNIGHT MESSENGER., P.O. Box 472., Altadens, CA 91001). Not only did the Skull and Bones (Western Illuminati) help to build up the Communist movement in China, but they gave considerable financial aid to the Soviet Union communists as well. According to Sutton, this power cult has for centuries been playing a “two ends against the middle” type of game, attempting to control America (the thesis) and Russia (the anti-thesis) and other countries or movements, carefully pitting them against each other at the lower levels in order to keep the populations of the world in a state of confusion and despair, to the point that they will – hopefully – resign themselves into accepting the New World Order “synthesis” as the only alternative to solve the very “problems” which THEY, the New World Order initiators, created in the first place! One startling, though documented, claim which Mr. Sutton makes is that the Nazi Movement was largely financed by the Skull and Bones -Illuminati as well. This connection was recently described in a mailer describing Val Valerian’s book MATRIX III (c/o Leading Edge Research., P.O. Box 481-MU58., Yelm, WASH 98597). Part of this mailer states:
“Interspaced with the material comes a host of data, supplementary material, interviews, and revealing information. The ‘Final Scenario’ is discussed relative to the New World Order and the plans for total economic control, a one-world religion, and the electronic mind control objectives, schools of thought, and research. MATRIX III brings out in detail how various families in the United States and Europe are also involved in a scenario which has as its main tenet the suppression and elimination of human beings on many levels – a scenario which includes worldwide traffic of drugs, vast laundering of drug money by national banks of several countries, and assassination and murder. These are the people who arranged and supported all the wars. There is discussion of the Bush family, and how Prescott Bush assisted the finance and management of the Nazi empire – the so-called Hitler project…

The membership list of the Trilateral Commission (Pacific Asian Group), the Rockefeller org similar to the Atlantic Bilderbergers is litered with Chinese names:

Central Bank President, Zhao Xiaochuan, who is a member of the Group of 30, the Rockefeller-sponsored group of leading Central Bankers and academics.

Only countries NOT in the NWO are listed on the US State Department’s or IMF’s shit-list, and China isn’t one of them.

Some Inconvenient Facts

Some inconvenient facts to consider: The US Unfunded Liabilities is $96 trillion not including the $18 trillion debt. Just the unfunded liabilities per taxpayer is $812,423.

Note: US Unfunded Liability (GAAP): Total US Unfunded Liability includes Social Security, (Medicare Parts A,B & D), Federal Debt Held by the Public, plus Federal Employee & Veteran Benefits. Source: US Treasury

And then we have the $303 trillion in derivative exposure the banks have shifted to the US Taxpayer.

Total US Assets are $116 trillion.

Currency and Credit Derivatives for 2015 are $690 trillion up over 664% against 2000.

We can’t afford to take care of our veterans, our elderly or our infrastructure, yet we insist on roaming the globe kicking everyone’s ass we can, and as a result spreading murder and mayhem. The US Government is in deep dodo and they know it. That’s the real purpose behind the Jade Helm 15 training and the militarization of our police.

Craig Hulet on World Turmoil

The link below is a recording of last night’s interview with Craig Hulet by George Noory of Coast to Coast AM. While I don’t agree with everything Craig has to say –particularly concerning FDR– he does hit the nail squarely on the head on many issues that confront all of us today as we engage in the battle of minds and information. Make no doubt about it, we are at war and what is at stake is individual sovereignty and freedom. Information contained in this interview will help you understand the big picture and understand better what ‘the powers that shouldn’t be’ have planned for you and me. Relax and enjoy. 

“Craig is a man who I call for expert advice on international and domestic terrorism, and white supremacy, (to name a few)… (Rita Rich, Producer The Jim Bohannon Show)

“I have known Craig Hulet for many years and find him to be one of the brightest guys in the nation with an insightful mind and a wealth of knowledge.

–Oliver Stone

From Coast to Coast AM with George Noory:
World Turmoil/ Old Earth
Thursday – April 16, 2015

In the first half, analyst Craig Hulet offered commentary on current events, terrorism, and world conflicts. “It looks to me unbelievably clear that money is going to buy the presidency, and Jeb Bush will be the next president,” he declared.

Coast to Coast AM Interview with Graig Hulet

Note:  A quick note on Coast to Coast AM and George Noory.  Coast to Coast broadcasts 4 hours Monday – Friday from Midnight to 4 a.m. (CST) and has reruns sometimes on the weekend.  While I certainly don’t endorse all the subjects covered or the opinions expressed,  I must admit that George and team have done a marvelous job building on what Art Bell started many years ago.  There is virtually no topic off-limits including UFO abductions, reptilians, moth man, ghosts, etc. What I like about the format is that they have excellent bumper music and they let the music play for several minutes so that you can actually get a real feel of the music.  Also, my hat is off to George for putting up with all the crazy callers.  He shows each and every one respect no matter how bizarre their comments or questions are.   He is all inclusive of all opinions and ideas and doesn’t just dismiss crazy callers out of hand.  I think this is part of the phenomenal success of this program which is available world-wide.  Some of the top scientists in the world, major movie moguls and other people at the pinnacle of their industries and professions will not hesitate to appear on Coast to Coast because they know that George will give them a fair hearing with great questions and dialogue; not to mention his massive audience.  So if you listen to Coast to Coast sometime, just try to have an open mind and consider all opinions fairly and enjoy the great discussions.

UPDATE: GMO

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | March 29, 2015

monsanto-152587_640Most of us have at least heard of Monsanto and the GMOs that it produces; and most of us know that Monsanto GMOs are not a result of careful selective breeding of the same specie of plant or animal but rather the splicing of genes from one specie to another providing a quicker and a more targeted approach; and after all,  genes are genes so why should you care if part of the corn you are eating has virus or pesticide DNA?   Like much of the ‘settled science’ by consensus, we are assured that GMOs are safe to eat by all the paid authorities, yet many countries have banned GMOs.   So my questions are:  If GMOs are so good for you, why has Monsanto spent millions preventing labeling of their products all across America?  If I built a fine product, I would be proud of the product and want to at least label it and let everyone know about my product, right?   And if GMOs are so good for you, why did Monsanto seek and receive legal liability protection from the US Federal Government?  There is much, much more to this story and it all makes Monsanto look bad in my opinion.  You can do your own research on the documented health effects and the law suits Monsanto has used to put its competition out of business.  Keep in mind that Monsanto also made Agent Orange.   Not a good citizen in my opinion.

Believe it or not, there is a link from Monsanto to the US takeover of Ukraine.  Apparently the IMF loan of $17 billion to Ukraine is conditioned on Ukraine allowing GMO crops.

Frederic Mousseau, who is a Policy Director at The Oakland Institute:

“We saw in 2013 that Monsanto invested $140 million in new seed plans in Ukraine. It is clearly the bread basket of Europe and it is a key target for a company like Monsanto, which sees this huge potential for production and this huge market. Europe has been quite resistant in allowing GMOs, but if they are successful in Ukraine then there might be a domino effect in Europe.”

The $17 billion IMF loan to Ukraine is contingent on Ukraine allowing GMO crops: IMF loan stipulations require permitting GMO production.

Though Monsanto has under performed against the Nasdaq and S&P 500, it tracks the DOW pretty well over the past 5 years.  In any event, the overall trend is up.  The trending is lower Feb and March of this year, but it is not clear if all the mounting bad press will have any lasting impact on this politically well-connected and intrenched company.
