Opus 008: The Three Assassinated Presidents…
Some Founding Fathers were strongly opposed to the formation of a central banking system; the fact that England tried to place the colonies under the monetary control of the Bank of England was seen by many as the ‘last straw’ of English oppression and that it led directly to the American Revolutionary War. If you read your American history, you will find a long battle with the central bankers.
1) Assassinated: 1865 Abraham Lincoln
President of the United States (1861 – 1865)
“The Government should create, issue, and circulate all the currency and credit needed to satisfy the spending power of the Government and the buying power of consumers. By adoption of these principles, the taxpayers will be saved immense sums in interest. Money will cease to be master and become the servant of humanity. “
“The money power preys upon the nations in times of peace and conspires against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy.”
– Abraham Lincoln
The London Times 1865: “If that mischievous financial policy which had its origin in the North American Republic during the late war in that country, should become indurated down to a fixture, then that Government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off its debts and be without debt. It will become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of the civilized governments of the world. The brains and wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe.”
“The death of Lincoln was a disaster for Christendom. There was no man in the United States great enough to wear his boots and the bankers went anew to grab the riches. I fear that foreign bankers with their craftiness and tortuous tricks will entirely control the exuberant riches of America and use it to systematically corrupt modern civilization. They will not hesitate to plunge the whole of Christendom into wars and chaos in order that the earth should become their inheritance.”
– Otto von Bismarck
2) Assassinated: 1881 James A. Garfield
President of the United States (200 days—from March 4, 1881, until his death on September 19, 1881)
“Whoever controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce…And when you realize that the entire system is very easily controlled, one way or another, by a few powerful men at the top, you will not have to be told how periods of inflation and depression originate.”
– James Garfield
American Banker Association 1891: “On September 1st, 1894, we will not renew our loans under any consideration. On September 1st we will demand our money. We will foreclose and become mortgagees in possession. We can take two-thirds of the farms west of the Mississippi and thousands of them east of the Mississippi as well, at our own price…Then the farmers will become tenants as in England.”
3) Assassinated: 1963 President Kennedy
United States President (1961 – 1963)
On June 4th, 1963, President Kennedy signed a presidential document, called Executive Order 11110. It gave the Treasury Department the explicit authority: “to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury.” Five months after Kennedy’s assassination all Series 1958 “Silver Certificates” were removed from circulation.
CONCLUSION:
“Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”
Woodrow Wilson
28th President of the United States (1913–1921)
