Misc. Musings … the political strata according to David Brown:

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | June 10, 2018

The deep-state, the Globalists (not to be confused with globalism), NWO, etc… Are not one homogenous group. There are many layers and aligned interests, but it breaks down according to my calculus along these lines:

Level 1:  Worker class At the bottom you have the masses, that’s you and me. We supply the real work that produces real products that make everything else possible. We are the gears in the clock dutifully ticking by. Honesty and ethics are enforced generally by the human condition we find ourselves in where we have to work in a competitive market and if we don’t produce, we are replaced. This requires functionality and the ability to do real things in the real world based on first principles. Many of us are the ‘salt of the earth’. Examples: You and me.

Operation Gladio Basics

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | Feb 8, 2015

Started as aDavid Brown Pic SnapShot left behind strategy after WWII to counter a potential Warsaw Pact invasion of Europe, Operation Gladio  quickly morphed into a “strategy of tension” used by NATO to shape public opinion with false flag operations employing rightwing terrorists; first in the 1969 Piazza Fontana bombings  killing 17 people and wounding 88.  Gladio was so successful in shaping public opinion after the Piazza Fontana bombings in Italy that NATO and the CIA continued Gladio, improving and modifying to include regime change via a putsch.  This is Gladio A.  Later, in Turkey, Islamist terrorist were used as proxies for the first time in what became known as Gladio B.  Gladio B employed Al-Qaeda, then ISIS to perform Gladio operations. However, in the case of Ukraine, A & B were mixed slightly with the use primarily of neo-Nazis (A) in Kiev and a small smattering of Islamists (B) further east.  During the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, much of the more technical aspects of Gladio was likely outsourced to private military companies (PMCs).  According to Kelley Vlahos’ article on ‘A Blackwater World Order’: “From 1999 to 2008, at the peak of the wars, Pentagon spending on outsourcing alone increased from $165 billion to $466 billion a year.”  It is important to note that many of these operations –as in the case of Ukraine– start with Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) which are in reality CIA fronts or cutout organizations which the target countries naively accept as a positive influence or assistance.  These operations are guided by the geopolitical goals outlined in the Wolfowitz Doctrine and the Grand Chessboard by Zbigniew Brzezinski with input and coordination from the CFR, The Royal Institute of International Affairs and GCHQ and no doubt the HIGHLANDS forum/group.  All of these organizations support the larger financial interests which control the FSB (Financial Stability Board), the BIS (Bank for International Settlements)  and Central Banks.  The origins of this control structure and their tactics can be found in Carroll Quigley’s ‘Anglo-American Establishment’ and ‘Tragedy and Hope’ among other historical, investigative books.

Davos (2015)

davosAre you excited? Davos starts tomorrow. It is not just a town, but an event.  Anyone who is anyone will be in attendance. It’s where the SUPERCLASS go to wheel and deal and of course party. You can bet that David Rothkopf will be there! Here you will find many puffed egos and self-appointed masters of the universe, most of whom know they are your betters. Were you invited to Davos this year? Well, neither was I.   Just in case you get lost, Davos is just down the road a bit from Basel, Switzerland home of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) and the Financial Stability Board (FSB).   The venue of the 2015 annual meeting of the World Economic Forum is of course Davos, Switzerland where more than 2,500 leaders from government, business and society will gather for the 45th annual conference Jan. 21-24.

David Rothkopf wrote a tell-all book about the SUPERCLASS. Only one problem, he kept tripping over his own ego. As one book reviewer noted:

“This book takes a LOT of time to say very little. In summary, here’s what the author takes several hundred pages to tell us:

a) The world is ruled by an informal group of about 6,000 people;
b) I [the author] am one of them! Aren’t I special?
c) I know who the others are—but I’m not going to tell you!
d) They all get together once each year in Davos;
e) Davos is quaint, and has good restaurants, but inadequate lodging; and,
f) Oh, did I forget to tell you? I’M one of the Davos world elite! I AM special!”

Yes, money and status remove even the most intelligent –like Mr. Rothkopf– from their earthly constraints of humility and gratitude, elevating them to the rarefied air breathed only by the select few of yes, the ‘SUPERCLASS’ and that ain’t you bro.

Who is the Boss?

Basel_-_Bank_für_internationalen_Zahlungsausgleich1

FSB & BIS building (shaped like a boot) in Basel, Switzerland.

In 2008, we bailed out the banks with GW Bush’s TARP. Now we are set to BAIL-IN the banks. What that means is that if the banks need the money in your checking or savings account, they can just take it. You are in effect a creditor loaning your money to the banks when you make a deposit into one of the too big to fail banks and they can just take it if they need it. And what is worse, you are not first in line as a creditor to get paid back when and if they have the money. They will first pay off their derivatives obligations and if there is any money left –unlikely–you can have that. But with $303 trillion in exposure on derivatives amongst these US too big to fail banks, there may be no money left to pay for the money they took from your bank account. This is a bail-in, not a bail-out. But on what legal authority?

Citigroup Wrote the US Spending Bill – side by side view

Your Democrats and your Republicans hid this provision which was actually written by Citigroup not by Congress on page 615 of the 1,603 page spending bill they passed last month. Government Psyop: “We wouldn’t want another government shutdown now would we?”

So how did the Cyprus-style bail-in come to America? Here’s how it works… The FSB (Financial Stability Board) writes a white paper and takes it across the hall to the BIS (Bank for International Settlements) both located in the same building shaped like a boot in Basel, Switzerland. The BIS and the G20 then rubber stamp this recommendation and the vassal countries like the USA then pass it into law without consultation with you, the sovereign citizen. So if you want to know who’s boss, it ain’t you pally.

“If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face – forever.”

–George Orwell

Carroll Quigley in “Tragedy and Hope”…

“The Power of financial capitalism had a far reaching plan, 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 feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent 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.”

Letter to Col. Edward Mandell House (21 November 1933); as quoted in F.D.R.: His Personal Letters, 1928-1945, edited by Elliott Roosevelt (New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1950), pg. 373:

“The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson — and I am not wholly excepting the Administration of W. W. The country is going through a repetition of Jackson’s fight with the Bank of the United States — only on a far bigger and broader basis.”

Interesting to note that Basel, Switzerland is also the home of Novartis AG, a Pharmaceutical company, but not just any pharmaceutical company: Novartis International AG is a Swiss multinational pharmaceutical company based in Basel, Switzerland, ranking number one in sales among the world-wide industry in 2013.  According to Bloomberg, in 2009 “the CDC agreed to pay London-based Glaxo and Novartis, based in Basel, Switzerland, more than $415 million for adjuvants that could be added to the swine flu vaccines, according to a July 13 statement”.
