Man-made Global Warming - a load of hot air

"Some of the leading scientists are now saying we may have as little as 10 years before we cross a kind of point-of-no-return, beyond which it's much more difficult to save the habitability of the planet in the future," Al Gore.

“Climate change is the most severe problem that we are facing today, more severe, even, than terrorism” Hon. David Anderson, Past Minister of the Environment, Canada.

These alarming declarations were made following the publication of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report on global warming.



The Oregon Petition

The Oregon Petition was the third, and by far the largest, of five prominent efforts intended to show that a "scientific consensus" does not exist on the subject of global warming. The petition, compiled between 1999 and 2001, received 17,800 independently verified signatures from scientists disagreeing with the conclusions made by the IPCC report.

Yet not a word has ever emerged in the mainstream media about this petition. Nor had it when, a few years earlier, 15,000 scientists also expressed their misgivings over the widely touted global warming theories. As Media Research Center/MediaNomics reported in 1998 “Fifteen thousand scientists sign a petition proclaiming their skepticism toward currently fashionable global warming theories, and the networks are silent.

A politician holds a press conference to promote those same theories, and CBS, CNN, and NBC all trumpet the news, and don't even mention the 15,000 scientists who think it's all hot air".

What was it that these scientists were asserting?

In the preamble to their petition they stated:"There is no convincing scientific evidence, that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth."

Obviously, it seemed, the pro-global warmers didn’t want their interests shot to bits by this groundswell of contrary scientific opinion. The mainstream media have routinely failed to address the far more greatly compelling evidence from experts in the field that global warming, and more particularly man-made global warming, is a myth.

“There is no evidence of human cause to climate change” according to Professor Ian Clark at the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Ottawa, “but there is overwhelming evidence to suggest that nature is the cause”.

Let’s look at the facts for ourselves.



The myths

Rising temperature levels

There is no evidence to suggest that atmospheric temperature levels are currently rising at an alarming rate, indeed data from satellites and weather balloons taken over the past 25 years show, if anything, a very small rise, around 1/2ºC.

A lot of meteorological data, including temperature, is sourced in urban areas where the ambient temperatures are known to be appreciably higher than rural areas and as cities grow in size average readings increase. It appears that these unrepresentative urban-based ground figures have over-emphasised any temperature increase. But what little rise in average temperature that may have taken place in the last forty or fifty years must be set in context with the cooler period which existed through the 1940s to early 1970s.

On top of this, historical data clearly shows us that the climate is warming and cooling all of the time, a continual fact of life on Earth; if there is one constant factor, it’s that the climate is always changing.




It is a known fact that during the medieval warm period, higher average temperatures - some several degrees celsius - had allowed vineyards to flourish in Britain and the higher temperatures - far from being a threat to our way of life as the Gore camp would profess - actually saw a period of great cathedral building and a seeming thriving lifestyle. Conversely, the ‘Little Ice Age’ during the 17th and 18th centuries saw the River Thames completely iced over to the extent that markets took place on the frozen river. Again, life continued unabated.


The ‘Hockey Stick’ curve


One of the major pieces of evidence presented by the Al Gore camp - and one that has been adopted as a cornerstone by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), - that suggests that global warming is a phenomenon peculiar to the present time, is the ‘Hockey Stick’ graph produced in 1998 as part of the MBH98 (Mann, Bradley & Hughes) report. This shows a sudden average global temperature rise following a long period of fairly stable lower temperatures. But whether this seminal graph is the result of the bad computation of data or is deliberately doctored, it does not represent the scientific truth as shown above that temperatures have fluctuated widely over the past millennia and completely ignores the ’Little Ice Age’ and the Medieval Warm Period.





Melting ice caps and rising sea levels

We are constantly reminded that global warming will lead to melting ice caps and that, indeed, this is happening. However, Professor John Christy of the Department of Atmospheric Science at the University of Alabama points out that the evidence from temperature records of the Greenland ice caps, that go back thousands of years, clearly show that temperatures in that part of the world had been significantly higher just 1000 years ago, yet there is no evidence that there was any great melting event which might cause rising sea levels.

Professor Syun-Ichi Akasofu, Director of the International Arctic Research Centre rightly tells us that imagery from NASA’s meteorological satellites taken throughout the 1990s clearly shows a constant natural expansion and contraction of the polar sea ice. But the mass media constantly bombards us with sensational images of large chunks of ice breaking away from ice shelves, yet fail to make the distinction that this is a natural process, as natural as falling leaves in Autumn. What they don’t show is ice accreting, which it is also doing all of the time. Of course, that would hardly make a visual experience!

Sea levels also vary constantly as part of two natural processes, the local factor, that is the relationship of the height of the sea to the land, which is very often the result of the land rising rather than the sea falling and eustatic changes which are due to thermal changes within the sea - having nothing to do with melting ice - and which change over only a very long period of time.

Gore’s presentation specifically cited the Maldive Islands as being under severe threat from rising sea levels, yet intensive research there has shown quite the reverse, that the sea level around the islands is actually falling. So more misinformation.


The spread of tropical diseases

Another false assumption is that tropical diseases such as malaria would spread northward if there were even a modest rise in temperature. But according to Professor Paul Reiter of the Department of Medical Entomology at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, mosquitoes thrive in very cold temperatures and epidemics of malaria have been reported in such places as Archangel in the former Soviet Union in the 1920s. Yet the IPCC warns us that “mosquito species that transmit malaria do not usually survive where the mean winter temperature drops below 16-18ªC”. Clearly untrue.


Rising CO2 levels

CO2 is essential for life on earth and even though levels have risen slightly over the past few years, as part of a continuum of fluctuations, it has actually accelerated plant growth and is hardly a threat to life as the IPCC would claim. Furthermore, Professor Jan Veitzer at the University of Ottawa shows us that there is no direct correlation between higher CO2 levels and temperature. 450 million years ago, when the CO2 levels were ten times that of today, the earth was undergoing an extreme cold period, one of the coldest in the last half billion years.


But what correlation there seems to be between CO2 levels and temperature, is quite the opposite to that which is posited by the IPCC and its spokesman, Al Gore. Whereas they maintain that increased atmospheric CO2 will result in higher temperatures and global warming, no historical precedent for this exists at all.

It has been found that our oceans are the biggest reservoir of CO2. In cooler climatic conditions, the oceans absorb CO2, but in warmer conditions they expel it. Because our oceans are so vast and deep, this process of absorption and expulsion take many hundreds of years and data clearly shows that the oceans’ CO2 release reflects the earth’s temperature in the past. That differential is about 800 years. So, in fact, rather than CO2 being the cause of global temperature rise - as the IPCC and global warming lobby would have us believe - it is the result of past warming and a delayed one at that.


Greenhouse gases

But it is the source of that CO2 which, once again, we are misinformed about. We are constantly reminded about greenhouse gases, that is those gases which reside in the earth’s troposphere and keep the heat in, so to speak, making this planet habitable. We are led to believe that the amount of CO2 is much larger than it really is, yet CO2 accounts for only 0.54% of all greenhouse gases, by far the largest being water vapour, and of that small percentage most is caused by natural means with animals and bacteria producing annually 150 gigatons compared to just 6.5 gigatons from human activities. Dying vegetation produces even more, volcanos more still and as we have seen the oceans are the greatest contributor.

One of the greatest causes of global warming, we are told again and again, is our damaging contribution of CO2 to the greenhouse gases. But if that is so, how do we account for the past rises in CO2 during periods of the earth’s history when modern industry, cars and aeroplanes were completely absent? A further demonstration that the temperature/CO2 level correlation is faulty is that more recently, during the great period of industrial growth, between 1940 and 1970, there was a cooling period even though CO2 levels were rising slightly.


Extreme weather

To heighten the sense of concern over global warming, every flood, hurricane, drought, cold or hot spell is portrayed in the mass media as a manifestation of global warming. Yet meteorological data shows that these phenomena are always with us to some degree or another often occurring on a cyclical basis and historical records show that during the ‘Little Ice Age’ more extreme weather events took place.

Here is a list of just a few significant ‘extreme’ weather events in Britain over the past few hundred years taken from the Oxford book on Weather Facts.

Winter 1684 Coldest on record
November 1703 The Great Storm caused the loss of 8,000 lives
Autumn 1740 Coldest on record
Winter 1740 Second coldest on record
Winter 1814 Bitterly cold with a Frost Fair in London
Spring 1893 Warmest on record
December 1897 Extreme winds bring down Tay railway bridge
9 August 1911 Hottest day recorded in British history
28 June 1917 250mm of rain fall in one day in Bruton, Somerset
1921 Record dry year
28 January 1928 Westerly gales kill 26 in Scotland
6-7 January 1928 North Sea floods 1.8m above predicted tidal level in London
27-28 January 1940 Widespread freezing
8 May 1943 Deep snow in Scotland
Winter 1947 Long and intensely cold winter
1949 Second warmest calendar year on record
21 May 1950 Tornado runs from Berkshire to Norfolk, four killed by lightning
15-16 August 1952 Disastrous floods in Lynmouth, Devon
31 January to 1 February 1953 North sea floods cause death of 300 in Britain and 1,800 in the Netherlands
18 June 1955 279mm of rain falls in one day in Martinstown, Dorset
Winter 1963 Long and intensely cold winter, third coldest behind 1684 and 1740
1 November 1965 Fierce winds cause cooling towers to collapse in Ferrybridge, Yorkshire
15 January 1968 Westerly gales cause havoc in Glasgow, much structural damage
July to September 1968 Leeming, North Yorkshire records 35.7mm of rain in just 8.5 minutes
and so on...

So, once again, it seems that the media are deliberately forcing an erroneous global warming message down our throats by dwelling and hyping what are, in reality, natural events of a cyclical nature.



The realities

The sun

For many years, astronomers have been keeping an eye on our sun’s activity and the number of sunspots it emits in the belief that it could be the primary cause of temperature change and many other meteorological phenomena here on earth.

In 1893 British astronomer, Edward Maunder, found that, according to historical data, during the ‘Little Ice Age’ between 1500 and 1800, there was very little sunspot activity. This period has become known as the Maunder Minimum.

More recently solar physicist, Piers Corbin has even made a small fortune from using sunspot activity as a means of predicting warm weather, by placing bets with the bookie William Hill. His bets, based on the sun’s activity have come up trumps every time.

In 1991, senior scientists at the Danish Meteorological Institute decided to look at the historical data of sunspot activity and temperature during the last 150 years and what they found was a remarkable correlation between the two.



Then Professor Christianson went back a further 400 years and the link continued.


Further natural links

Clouds have a powerful cooling effect on earth. They are in large part formed by the bombardment of earth by sub-atomic particles - cosmic rays - which, when meeting with rising water vapour, form water droplets which in turn form clouds.

But when the sun is particularly active and the solar wind is strong, fewer cosmic rays bombard the earth, thus creating fewer clouds resulting in higher temperatures. Astro-physicist, Nir Shariv decided to compare his own records of cloud formation with Dr Jan Veitzer’s temperature records which went back 600 years and found a distinct correlation between the two sets of data.

Therefore it is a natural law of nature that climate is controlled by clouds which in turn are formed by cosmic rays which in turn are regulated by the sun’s activity.



Distortion and manipulation


We have already seen how the widely-used ‘Hockey Stick’ graph has been used to create a warning message that we are on the brink of a global climate catastrophe, by misrepresenting the preceding historical data.

A recent documentary hosted by Sir David Attenborough added to the general misinformation on the subject by taking a very small portion of recent data of temperature and CO2 and extrapolating from it a distorted picture of the future by completely ignoring the preceding historical data, which, if taken into account, gives a quite different picture.



Click on image to enlarge

The IPCC report on climate change is grossly distorted, accommodating only those views and data which fit the false hypothesis of its political proponents.

In a letter to the Wall Street Journal, Professor Frederick Seitz, former president of America’s National Academy of Sciences revealed that the IPCC panel had censored the opinions of many scientists. He went on to say that “this report is not what it appears to be - it is not the version that was approved by the contributing scientists listed on the title page”. Omitted from the final IPCC report was the statement “None of the studies cited above has shown clear evidence that we can attribute the observed (climate) changes to the specific cause of increase in greenhouse gases”. “No study to date has positively attributed all or part (of the climate change observed to date) to anthropogenic (man-made) causes”. He concluded “I have never witnessed a more disturbing corruption of the peer-review process than the events that led to this IPCC report”.

Many of those scientists who disagreed with the final report still had their names in the title page in order to try and boost the report’s credibility.

We have also seen how, in Al Gore’s presentation on climate change, he completely mis-interprets the relationship between CO2 levels and temperature, implying that increasing CO2 creates increased temperatures, when in fact the reverse is true.

That deceit continued later in the same presentation when he showed the emotive image of what looked to be a stranded polar bear on a floating fragment of ice, implying that polar bears were under threat of extinction as the ice sheets disintegrate and disappear. The emotive image that he used, it was later found, had originated from a photograph taken by one Amanda Byrd who was holidaying in Alaska during August. Being the Arctic summer, such images were be easy to capture and the bear’s ability to swim back to the main ice sheet - which was kept conveniently out of view - was more than adequate.

This demonstrates the way in which a powerful lobby can contort and emotionalise a subject to its desire in front of an un-questioning audience that is either unwilling or just too lazy to check the validity of what is being presented to them.



Hypocrisy

But the whole man-made/global warming/climate change farce is made so obviously hollow by the lack of effort its own supporters make to try and set an example, but one that we, the general public and industry worldwide, are expected to adopt through our carbon footprints in every aspect of our daily lives.

The recent Live Earth series of concerts staged worldwide highlighted these inconsistencies:

  • The event’s carbon footprint was 34,722 tons or nearly three times that if you factor in that of the television audience
  • Many of the stars arrived at the various venues by their own private jets and by the very nature of their high-flying lifestyles, own a carbon footprint far in excess of the average person
  • John Legend and Sheryl Crow both feature in TV commercials selling petrol-guzzling motors
  • The multiple concerts generated huge amounts of rubbish, with the Wembley concert alone estimated to produce 59 tonnes of waste
  • Al Gore, himself, lives a lavish carbon footprint-heavy lifestyle with a large energy-consuming home with several heated swimming pools.


The real modus operandi?

So given such a flagrant misrepresentation of the truth on a matter on which a vast number of scientists disagree and to which its own authors seem less than keen in setting a guiding example, why are we being fed a pack of lies? And why is it regarded as heresy to publicly oppose or show disagreement to what can only be described as a new religion?


The Report from Iron Mountain

Back in 1966 a government think-tank study was published, entitled The Report from Iron Mountain. Although much controversy exists over the authenticity of this document, which has since been published in book form, its recommendations seem to have a remarkable bearing on otherwise inexplicable current global policies. The book was published on the basis that it is a satire, yet its supposed authors were part of a study group set up during the Kennedy administration, commissioned by the Department of Defense under the then Defense Secretary, Robert McNamara and was produced by the Hudson Institute, situated at the base of Iron Mountain at Croton-on-Hudson, New York, and has more or less been authenticated by Kenneth Galbraith who was, at one time, closely associated with this group. Both the Hudson Institute’s director, Herman Kahn and McNamara were Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) members, a powerful organisation often regarded as the covert parallel US government and a foremost proponent of one-world government.

The study group’s remit was to find ways to ‘stabilise’ society once the threat of the Cold War had past, which, among other things, had been another manufactured ‘stabilising’ ruse itself. In the report the word ‘stabilise’ is synonymous with a perpetual form of government that can keep society under firm control and prevent it from rebelling. In other words, manufacturing means by which society would be cowed into submission, forever subservient to the state.

The conclusions of the report were that, although in the past wars had served that end goal of subservience well, making society conform through the threat that war posed, instilling a patriotism and allegiance to government, the coming prospect of a global government would imply total disarmament and an end to war. Thus a controlling substitute had to be found that would perpetuate allegiance to centralised government.

The panel made a number of recommendations, the seeds of which are becoming all too familiar today:

  • A form of national service for those who engage in anti-social behaviour, where youths would be conscripted in ‘social improvement’ programmes, (a natural extension from the current system of ASBOs). In addition those unable to pay off debts, political dissidents and those accused of ‘hate-crimes’ would be conscripted into these forced ‘labour-batallions’.
  • Dumbing down society by pre-occupying it with trivia and mindless diversions to stifle political debate with a suggestion that blood sports are staged to work off pent up human emotions
  • Finding a credible global threat, whether entirely true or not. As the report pointed out: “Allegiance requires a cause; a cause requires an enemy. This much is obvious; the critical point is that the enemy that defines the cause must seem genuinely formidable”.
This is where global warming comes in. The sun’s current activity is providing an element of evidence that something is changing, albeit a natural cycle in earth’s relationship with the sun. Yet, false science has been summoned to support a scenario in which man’s activities are leading him toward a serious global threat. So, in order to avoid it, we must all comply to a new set of global rules. This will allow an opportunity for the globalists to usher in global taxation to penalise our pollution and have us succumb to harsh new environmental laws. Anyone dissenting will end up in labour-batallions. Academia must comply and all mainstream media must sing the global warming anthem with equal vigour and determination.

This is why the voices of those signatories to the Oregon Petition have largely gone unheard, while those supporting the mantra get mainstream coverage.

But the pro-global warming lobby gets more than just further control of our lives and more revenue from taxation, using the same rhetoric about man’s industry adding dangerous amounts of CO2 to the earth’s troposphere, it can also prevent third world countries from developing their industries, thus preventing them from building their economies. It is a repressive dogma.

Whether the Report from Iron Mountain is an authentic document or not, or is simply a satire as the mainstream media would have us believe, in all aspects of the recommendations on which the report advises, each is actually coming to fruition before our very eyes albeit, in some cases, in an embryonic form.



Conclusion

Put against this background of the global manipulation of mankind, the forced indoctrination of man-made global warming takes on a threatening spectre and one which our masters wholeheartedly want us to abide by. How far they will get with this will be interesting to see. Remember back in the 1970’s the scares of global cooling.

It is vital for us to remain informed and to take, with a very large pinch of salt, the column inches of mis-information the orchestrated mass media has to offer, whose guardians are all part and parcel of the same global élite as those for which The Report from Iron Mountain was prepared.

Given their vast arsenal of bio and electronic weaponry, security forces and financial control which could render us all bankrupt overnight, if this ruse fails you can be sure that some new tack will be waiting around the corner.

More staged terror?

Over the last weekend we have seen a resurgence of potential terror attacks on British soil.

First it was a smoking Mercedes in London’s Haymarket early on Saturday morning and shortly afterwards another Mercedes in nearby Cockspur Street. Both were said to contain patio-gas cannisters and a quantity of petrol and nails. Then, at Glasgow Airport on Saturday afternoon, a Cherokee Jeep bizarely crashed into a terminal building while one Asian man, ablaze, jumped out of the vehicle to the astonishment of holidaymakers.

The media immediately went to town, impressing readers and viewers of the potentially serious damage the two London cars could have caused, with Fox News exclaiming that “Had either device gone off it would have generated a huge fireball and a shockwave spreading over 400 yards in all directions”.

But not so, according to ex-CIA explosives expert, Larry Johnson, interviewed on MSNBC. When asked to evaluate the potential damage caused by the cars, should their contents have been detonated, he explained that although the cars themselves would have been seriously damaged, the collateral damage to the immediate environment would have been minimal, extending to within only a few feet of each Mercedes. The contents bore no relationship to the high explosives used in similar car bomb attacks in Iraq which currently occur on a daily basis and are far more powerful. In Johnson’s view the media were hyping these events in order to scare the public.

The suspected ringleader of these attacks has been named and is a brilliant neurologist, currently working at Paisley General Hospital in Scotland. It is believed that others involved in the attacks were also doctors and some have linked the timing of these attacks to the inauguration of Gordon Brown as Prime Minister last Friday. It is believed that these doctors could be linked to al Qaeda. Shock, horror, al Qaeda at large in the NHS!

How timely. As Paul Watson on infowars.com commented “Gordon Brown has swept into Downing Street with the aid of a new injection of the strategy of tension”.

If we were really at war with Islamic terrorists then surely the government would impose strict controls on their passage in and out of the country. But no, in fact quite the opposite, suspects seem to have the right to come and go freely.

It begs the question, were these just more government intelligence staged events involving unwitting patsies all destined to impart a message?

We have to remember the distinctions between the various types of ‘staged’ terrorism but in each we can pin a large measure of involvement both upon government whether directly or as a result of its actions.

1 Direct covert involvement
by governments as in 9/11 and 7/7 where overwhelming evidence exists in the public domain of covert ‘inside’ participation from elements within government executed through the higher levels of its intelligence departments’ command, with the outcome from these events being used to set a political agenda.

2 Indirect covert involvement by governments
as in many IRA attacks, both in mainland Britain and Northern Ireland, and confirmed by the confessions of Kevin Fulton, third parties are infiltrated into the higher ranks of the militant group by government intelligence agencies, directly offering technical assistance in bombings, again, the outcomes from which go to support that same government’s political agenda.

3. Backlash from government policies Terrorism caused directly by militant groups resulting from their disgust toward government policy as it affects them.

In all these instances, it is government which is ultimately to blame and it is they who are using the terrorism, however caused, to further their agendas.

In the wake of this current round of ‘staged’ or ‘real’ events - whether the perpetrators were consciously or unwittingly involved as useful stooges, one can bet that it will all be used to further restrict our freedoms and herald in ever more draconian legislation to keep us all incarcerated in Big Brother's Brave New World Order.

The Federal Reserve, Fiat Money and the Meltdown of the US Economy

This article is inspired by G. Edward Griffin’s book ‘The Creature from Jekyll Island’ which chronicles the creation of the American Federal Reserve System. I am a great admirer of Griffin’s work principally because of the highly researched and organised way in which he approaches his subject matter and the clear and concise way in which he presents his findings.





The following story I am about to tell really only acts as an overview to his book which, I suggest, should be vital reading for everyone and particularly those who want to get a true understanding of how corrupt our western banking systems are and the power that these cartels wield over our lives.


Part 1

This story reflects the vanity of human nature. It shows how the deviation from a path of self-control can lead to a situation that gets wildly out of hand, with all of the benefits falling into the hands of the wrong people, creating a system that works directly against our own interests and well-being. It also demonstrates the deceptive skills employed by the élite ‘Illuminati’ banking families, having us believe that their banking system is in our best interests when, in fact, they are deceiving us and maintaining that deception so that when we are embroiled in high interest rates or lose our standard of living through a market crash, we end up pointing the finger of accusation in the wrong direction.


Origins and types of money


Once upon a time the transaction of goods and services was conducted by barter with exchanges made by mutual agreement on their relative values. As time went by it became apparent that some goods were more essential to the daily needs of people than others - like wheat or cattle - and there was a constant demand for such items. Because these goods had an intrinsic value they could be used as commodity money.

As man came to discover and refine precious metals which had a rarity value in themselves, coins were minted and these were eventually used as a more convenient medium of exchange for goods and services. The value of these coins would be determined by weight.

The amount of actual coinage that a merchant, for instance, might possess at any one time, might well be far more than he actually needed for his immediate requirement, so a system developed whereby he would deposit some of his coinage with a goldsmith, who would hold it in his vaults and issue the owner with a written receipt, redeemable upon presentation at any time. Soon these promissory notes were circulated to third parties with whom our merchant may have had business dealings and they, themselves could, upon presentation to the goldsmith, obtain the payment due to them by the merchant. These paper receipts became our next stage of currency, receipt money.

If we suppose that the materials and labour required in building a cart are reckoned to be equal to an ounce gold coin - a price based upon the availability of the gold coin supply and availability of carts - then one cart would cost one ounce of gold. But if the amount of gold being mined and minted into coins increases, so that the available money supply increases, then the price of a cart will rise because of the greater wealth in general circulation. Clearly, supply and demand of gold and available goods maintain an equilibrium.

The common misconception that this system is limited to the amount of gold available as currency at any one time is a misnomer since any scarcity of available gold is offset by the increased value of what is in current supply. If gold coinage is plentiful the cost of the cart will rise, if gold coinage is in short supply the price will come down.

As long as this system is left alone and governments or banks don’t intervene by cutting corners or creating paper money that isn’t 100% backed to the same value by gold, then the economy will remain stable and everyone will benefit.

But man’s impatience with such well-disciplined systems and his age-old wish to make an expedient extra buck or two soon led to the imbalancing of the mechanism.


Enter fractional and fiat money

The extra bob or two for those unscrupulous abusers of the system had kept busy hands at work filing down coins - just a little - and then re-casting the accumulated filings into new coinage. Not only goldsmiths, but governments engaged in this activity on the coins received from the public as tax payments. Now there was more coinage in circulation, but its real worth had been compromised. More coinage meant higher prices because of the seeming increase in wealth, yet the wealth had not increased, hence our first acquaintance with inflation.

But worse than this was the realisation by goldsmiths that they could literally get an extra run for their money in a quite different way. Discovering that of the available gold in their vaults at any one time left in safekeeping on behalf of depositors, only a fraction (about 15%) was ever called for on any given occasion. This led unscrupulous goldsmiths’ to offer the other 85% that was unlikely to be called upon by depositors, as loans to others and charge interest for the privilege. This allowed a goldsmith to create further money out of that which was lying idle in his vaults. But wait. That money isn't rightfully his, it belongs to the depositor who has every reason to believe that his gold coins are left in safe keeping. So the depositors' gold he is issuing as loans is being used twice, creating a most devious slight of hand and once again devaluing the actual money supply in existence. The concept of fractional money, had arrived, a highly convenient and dishonest concept that has dominated the banking system up to our present day.

But still man’s insatiable desire for more money continued, especially during wars when the colossal cost of armaments had to be met at very short notice.

Fiat money first made its appearance in China during the time of Marco Polo, but was also used to disastrous ends in the American colonies. Under this system, money is conjured up out of nothing as it doesn’t have the backing of gold or anything of real tangible value. Fiat money is issued out of nothing and is declared legal tender by government, meaning that it has to be adopted as lawful tender. The flooding of a country’s economy with this worthless issuance dilutes the genuine gold-backed money in existence, so that prices inevitably rise because of the increase in money supply, but in reality everyone is worse off because their money buys less. This is inflation.

The government now has a new source of money with which to buy their armaments but it has to be paid for somehow. Whereas direct taxation would be highly unpopular with the masses, the issuance of fiat money and its devaluing effect on the money supply allows the books to be balanced through inflation - the decline of our purchasing power - the perfect hidden tax!

In colonial America this was demonstrated to disastrous effect when inflation became rampant and between 1775 and 1779 the money supply increased by 5000%! George Washington remarked in 1779 "that a wagon load of money would scarcely purchase a wagon load of provisions”.





With the drafting of the American Constitution and with the ravages of hyper-inflation fresh in the founders’ minds, it included the strong provision that the issuance of fiat money would be outlawed.

A hard lesson had been learned, but not for long.




Part 2


Modern banking comes into being

The banking business had its foundations in 14th century Europe and in many instances got off on the right foot with banks fully meeting their moral obligations by issuing paper receipts that were fully backed their by deposits. However, the craving for money among the banks’ clientele soon put pressure on them to find easier ways of creating it, rather than being tied to the value of their deposits. The long ride down the slippery slope had begun with a legacy to this day of booms and busts, bank failures and sporadic economic failures, resulting from the unbridled issuance of un-backed money, devaluing economies.

With the founding of the Bank of England in 1694, fractional-reserve banking became institutionalised. It was the world’s first central bank, introducing the partnership between bankers and politicians, a disastrous mix. This liaison would allow a revenue-hungry British government to obtain funds which were largely created out of nothing by the bank on which the government would pay interest, thus avoiding the unpopular resort of the government raising taxes. But, as we have seen, someone has to make up the financial imbalance and it is the average man and woman who ends up paying more for goods and services; the hidden tax, inflation.


Early American central banks

Even before the Constitution was drafted, America had its own central bank, the Bank of North America, taking as its lead the Bank of England practice of fractional-reserve lending; lending more money as promissory notes than it held in deposit, and its principal borrower was the government.

Predictably, America’s first venture into central banking became an exercise in fraudulence. Closing its doors in 1783, it was replaced with America’s second central bank, the First Bank of the United States. But lessons still were not being learned.

One of the most influential players in the First Bank’s operations were the Rothschilds of Europe. This infamously cunning family, whose influence has continued to covertly dominate world money and therefore world events to this day and to whom - along with the Rockerfellers, their American counterparts in crime - had devised methods which enabled them to exploit the banking system to their own ends and amass incredible fortunes. Their wealth was obtained though smuggling, urging governments to engage in wars from which they would hugely profit and - through their superior network of intelligence gathering - manipulate the stock markets to their own ends. Indeed, Mayer Amschel Rothschild’s famous saying “Let me issue and control a nation’s money and I care not who writes the laws” couldn’t be more appropriate.

Their influence on the First Bank obviously showed and in the first five years of its existence, inflation - that covert tax - had devalued people’s money by 42%. Outrage in many quarters ensued and America’s second central bank closed down. But in its wake, smaller wildcat banks operating on the same flawed principals stepped in just as the 1812 war between America and Britain needed funding. Within two years the nation’s money supply had tripled, devaluing it by a further 66%!

Despite this rampant inflation, at the end of the war, rather than reign in the excesses of the wildcat banks, Congress merely sought to protect them and perpetuate the system by founding America’s third central bank, the Second Bank of the United States and it was business as usual for the fractional lending fraud. With its enhanced connections with the wildcat banks, which were situated right across America, the inflationary boom and bust cycles were now felt everywhere.

By 1820 the pendulum was beginning to sway back in favour of sound monetary control and the principal voice in this crusade was Democrat, Andrew Jackson. A period of battle between Jackson and the Second Bank’s head Norman Biddle followed, but in the end Jackson won and the Second Bank closed its doors.


Civil War and beyond

By the time the Second Bank had closed the country was entering a ‘bust’ cycle as the money supply was being limited following rapid inflation. But with now no central bank, bad old practices and some bad new ones dominated while no-one tackled the real cause of this continual financial disruption, fractional reserve banking. It was this continuing economic crisis and the weak state of the economy, making exports in the North uncompetitive, which really triggered the American Civil War and not the issue of slavery which is popularly touted as its driving force.

While the Confederate South and industrialised North enjoyed mutual trading, the South also successfully traded cotton to Europe which annoyed the North whose exports were deemed uncompetitive because of cheaper goods being imported from Europe. In order to counter this imbalance the North imposed protectionist embargoes on imported European goods which forced the southern states to have to buy from the North at higher prices. Also the North’s embargo on European imports was retaliated by Europe taking similar measures on imported cotton from the South causing outrage among the Confederates.





European money men and governments wanted to use this split between the North and South to weaken America for their own secret expansionist policies, thus America had now become embroiled in global economic politics with the Rothschild dynasty and the London-based House of Morgan being a significant cause, but more significantly they were the financial beneficiaries of the blood spilt during the Civil War.


The Jekyll Island Meeting

America’s banking industry, following the demise of the Second Bank, was a myriad of rules and regulations, controls and privileges, none of which struck at the heart of the boom and bust cycle, namely the proliferation of marginal reserve money. Banks together with the trusts and cartels that had grown up following the loss of a central bank, could still be prone to collapse under this chaotic economic system. There was a pressing need - particularly in New York where banking had largely become consolidated into two large rivals, the Rockerfellers and the Morgans - to resolve the problem, but in a way that would suit the bankers and not the well-being of the country or its economy.

What they wanted was a system that would create a lender of last resort to supply unlimited amounts of money should any of the banks suffer insolvency from runs and currency drains. They also wanted to stifle the competition so that a closely-knit banking cartel could operate in exclusivity with its affiliates agreeing to strict controls that would keep them interlocked. It was agreed that the federal government must be part of the new set up to provide that function of control.

One winter’s night in 1910, this coterie of bankers met on the remote Jekyll Island just off the coast of Georgia. They comprised of Abraham Piatt, Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury; Frank A Vanderlip, president of the National City Bank of New York and representing William Rockerfeller; Henry P Davison, of the JP Morgan Company; Charles D Norton, president of JP Morgan’s First National Bank of New York, Benjamin Strong, head of JP Morgan’s Bankers Trust Company, Paul M Warburg, partner in Kuhn, Loeb & Company and representing the British and French Rothschild banking dynasty and Senator Nelson W Aldrich the Republican senate ’whip’, chairman of the National Monetary Commission, associate of JP Morgan and father-in-law to John D Rockerfeller, Jr. It was here that the framework of the Federal Reserve was laid out, a system that would strangulate America for the next 100 years.

The idea had to be sold to Congress without making it appear that the Federal Reserve would in reality be a cartel - which would have brought strong opposition - so this new structure would be comprised of 12 regional institutions to give it the appearance of a decentralised organisation, whereas, in reality, it was to follow the model of the Bank of England.

The rather misleading title of the Federal Reserve was adopted; ‘Federal’ implying that it was an offshoot of government, and ‘Reserve’ implying that it was backed by reserves of tangible assets, both implied definitions being completely untrue.

The cartel needed a sympathetic champion who would see this new central bank become a reality and they found it in Woodrow Wilson, whose close intellectual minder, Colonel House, had intimate ties to the cartel. Because of Wilson’s unshakable faith in House’s abilities, the Colonel was regarded as the unseen President of the United States.

After much political skulduggery, the Federal Reserve Act under its presentational title of the Glass-Owen Bill passed into law on December 23, 1913. Some ameliorating amendments had been made, but the essential framework was there. America now had a central bank to out-class the iniquities of all of the former central banks as time would soon tell.



Part 3


The Federal Reserve had been born. With its falsely-sounding government title, it was believed that it would bring about monetary reform and prevent the spates of bank failures that had been plaguing the US economy. It was expected that it would be a central regulatory, presidentially-elected and senate-controlled body in which the public would be protected through a sharing of power, melding of interests, with a system of checks and balances so that according to Woodrow Wilson “the banks may be instruments, not the masters, of business and of individual enterprise and initiative”. But, in common with many of the rest of those who were involved in the passing of the Bill, they had little or no understanding of the real modus operandi of its proposers, the bankers, or indeed how their deceitful financial mechanism was to work.

The hidden intentions behind the forming of the Federal Reserve were:
  • To stop the growing influence of the smaller banks, and concentrate the nation’s financial resources in the hands of the governing cartel by pooling their reserves into one large fund to protect themselves from currency runs and drains
  • Reverse the trend of private capital formation and gain dominance over the industrial loans market
  • Shift the liabilities of the cartel to the taxpayers.

The mechanism at work

The clearly defined, but publicly undeclared principles adopted by the Federal Reserve in practice work like this.
  • The Federal Reserve System allows commercial banks to create chequebook money out of nothing. Therefore, the US dollar bill has no real value, is not backed by an equal quantity of gold or any other tangible asset - it is pure fiat money - which is created out of debt, which you could rightly argue is less than nothing!
  • It is the lending of money which allow the banks to derive profit from the interest charged on the loan. So when a loan is granted to a borrower, it is first conjured out of nothing as a series of figures on a computer screen, then the amount of that loan is entered in the bank’s ledger as an asset as it is earning interest and should eventually be paid back.
  • To keep the bank solvent, it must ensure that its loans - especially the larger ones - are not defaulted on, so every effort is made to keep those loans on the books and, at least, receive the interest from them. The maintenance of this state of affairs is usually achieved by increasing the size of the loans to potential defaulters, allowing the borrower additional capital to spend while maintaining the flow of interest repayments. This is called ‘rolling over the debt’. This way the bank’s book assets are maintained although the problem of the borrower’s inability to repay that loan is not solved, just merely postponed.
  • Should that debt become unpayable even after the ‘rolling over’ procedure has been repeated, the Federal Reserve system comes into play. They convince Congress that to allow the borrowing company to die would not be in the national interest. Thousands of jobs might be lost and add a further burden to the economy. This action, with the sanction of Congress allows the Federal Reserve banking cartel to create fresh money out of nothing to allow the lending bank to write off the outstanding debt from its ledger, and that fresh money now flooding the economy, means higher prices because through the increased money supply, transferring the burden to the taxpayer as inflation - the result of higher prices charged for goods and services.

Examples of the Federal Reserve at work

Let’s see how this mechanism has worked in the real world and the damage it has caused to the American economy at the expense of this infamous banking cartel.

The Penn Central Railroad In 1970 it became bankrupt. The lending banks’ took over the directorship of the Penn Central while continuing to pour money into it - which in turn came from the Federal Reserve - so allowing dividends to be continued to be paid to shareholders giving them the impression that all was OK. At the same time the directors then began to offload their shares at unrealistic prices, so that when bankruptcy came, the recipients of those shares were left with nothing. As the final resort the Federal Reserve made its case to Congress that the need to keep the Penn Central alive was paramount to public interest. Congress then responded by issuing loan guarantees worth $125m, thereby underwriting the banks’ losses.

The losers were the shareholders, Joe Public because of a further influx of money supply helping up inflation, and the Railroad which eventually failed anyway, while the winners, as always, were the central banks who were laughing all the way to their collective front doors.

Lockheed The same year and the same story. This time Congress agreed to guarantee $250m in new loans and so the Fed Res banking cartel had ensured that Lockheed was now 60% deeper in debt than it had been before. But since the government was acting as guarantor, in order to ensure that Lockheed didn’t go bust, it made sure that it was granted lucrative no-bid defence contracts. The winners, once again were the banks, while the increased money supply kept the man in the street picking up the tab.

And so it went on.

New York City
Year: 1975, impending insolvency
Pretext: the curtailment of public services which would be a disgrace in the eyes of the world
Bailout: $2.3bn, doubling the size of New York City’s current debt
Beneficiaries: the banks continue to receive their interest.

Chrysler
Year: 1978, on the verge of bankruptcy
Pretext: to allow the company to fold would be a blow to the economy and reduce competition in the car industry
Bailout: $1.5bn
Beneficiaries: The banks’ previously uncollectable debt was now guaranteed by government backing ensuring the continued flow of interest.

Commonwealth Bank of Detroit
Year: 1972, insolvency, following large loans from the Chase Manhattan Bank to invest in risky high stakes ventures
Pretext: financial hardship to the public
Bailout: $60m loan from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) (an insurance arm of the Fed Res), plus federal guarantees of repayment
Beneficiaries: Commonwealth saved and sold to an Arab consortium, Chase saved converting its potential loss into government-backed assets.

Chicago Continental Illinois Bank (world’s seventh largest bank)
Year: 1982, insolvency following overseas banks withdrawing their deposits creating the world’s first electronic bank run
Pretext: it would be unthinkable to have such a leading bank fail
Bailout: $4.5bn by the FDIC in return for an 80% ownership in the bank.
Beneficiaries: CCI Bank is saved although the $4.5bn collateral being in the form of government stock, effectively made the CCI Bank government-controlled!

In all of these instances and scores of others, the Federal Reserve had acted as ‘lender of last resort’ and had saved each institution from insolvency, saving the banks’ continued ability to trade and coin in interest from its loans, but placing an enormous burden upon the general public through artificial money creation with the resulting inflation and devaluation the nation’s wealth.


The game goes global


But this whole scam wasn’t just being enacted on the American stage, it was going global. This time the stated pretext wasn’t just a banking system that would protect the American people, it was to be a banking system that would save the world from poverty, through facilitating international trade and stabilising exchange rates.

So, at Bretton Woods in New Hampshire in 1944 the International Monetary Fund (IMF) was born. Acting as a global bank, like the Federal Reserve it would conjure money out of thin air and through the creation of the World Bank transfer that fiat money, described as loans, to third world, underdeveloped countries.


The Bretton Woods Meeting

This was no altruistic move on the part of this banking cartel. It’s true goal was that the ‘loans’ would stimulate the demise of free enterprise in these third-world countries, thus tying them to the central world bank and so embroiling them in perpetual debt. In reality the money wouldn’t go to those people who needed it most, the deprived, hungry and starving, but would be handed to their governments, many of which had been established with deliberate western coercion as crooked dictatorships. Nine times out of ten, these ‘loans’ would end up being used to expand government bureaucracy and be frittered away by the governing élite and/or be used to build their military status.

Since the money for these loans originated from the industrialised countries, principally the US, this manufacture of fiat currency covertly undermined that country’s wealth, but was doing nothing to alleviate the hardships of those in third-world countries to whom popular thought supposed it was to be designated. Once, again, the banks were the prime beneficiaries.


The ulterior motive

One of the prime intellectual driving forces behind the Bretton Woods agreement was John Maynard Keynes, economist and leading member of the Fabian Society.


The Fabians and Communists both shared the notion of a classless, stateless society, devoid of private enterprise, where the state would, in essence, control all. They differed only on the way this end should be achieved. The Communists favoured force, whereas the Fabians preferred a gradual coercion of nation states into this framework by stealth.

The creation of the World Bank and IMF was, in fact, a means of achieving this goal of centralised power, but on a global scale with a view to eventually creating a one world bank with a one world currency.

Strong nation states like the US, born on the ethos of free enterprise - the reverse of what was being proposed - were to be the prime lenders to third world nations, through the World Bank, thus bleeding their economies through inflation and devaluation of their currencies. As we see today, the dollar is being deliberately stripped of its world status through the unbridled issue of fiat currency, both in military spending and international loans - most of which have no hope of being repaid, the only beneficiaries being the banking and military-industrial cartels, who are literally hi-jacking the country. As the dollar finally collapses and America is brought economically to its knees, rescue will come in the form of a new, more broadly-based currency with a subsequent loss of sovereignty.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the coin, third-world and other less well developed nations are being enticed into this global collectivist web, by hooking their respective governments and despot leaders - more often than not covertly coerced into power by the very nations who are currently bankrolling them - on loans they will never repay, because of their innate desire for money and power, ensuring those funds are wasted and not put to use in helping their countries’ citizens. The IMF and World Bank are literally buying these countries with the wealth of the American and other Western industrialised nations to eventually bring them into a world collectivist, communist-style environment.

Now that the former Soviet bloc and China have been enticed into the IMF/World Bank web, they join Latin America and Africa who are already hopelessly embroiled in indebtedness to this global juggernaut of financial oppression, beholden to the one-world doctrine of those who have devised the system which grew out of the doctrines of Jekyll Island and Bretton Woods.




The future?

Today the US national debt is quoted as $8.8 trillion. Given an estimated population in the United States of just under 302.3 million, that equates to the share of debt per citizen of just in excess of $29,000! And this national debt has been increasing at the rate of $1.05bn per day since September 29, 2006.

The federal government payroll has increased dramatically while the manufacturing industry has declined, with more people receiving government paychecks than those paying income taxes. Add to this the entitlements, such as social security and medicare which, in 1992, represented 52% of federal outlays together with the 14% being soaked up in interest payments on debt and you see a country being bled dry.

National assets such as docks, ports and other major infrastructure have been sold off to foreign interests, environmentalism has led to millions of acres of timber and farm land to be taken out of production, while mandatory legislation in the workplace has been eroding the viability of much of the private sector.

Because of constant inflation, as the money supply is constantly topped up by more fiat money, the standard of living has declined in real terms and the number of Americans who own their homes has dropped. Over 90% of all Americans are officially broke by retirement age.


All part of the plan

It seems that just about every step is being taken to kill America. Why is this reckless state of affairs allowed to continue?

It appears that this is all part of a greater stratagem formulated many decades ago. The goal is one-world government in which all former nations are coerced into a global collectivist state with one central government, central bank and army. The building blocks of this horrific end game are already in existence. The IMF and World Bank are its financial progenitors, while the United Nations army is to be its military overseer and the United Nations the global governor. In this scenario, no sovereign state remains and to achieve this goal, preeminent, strong self-contained sovereign countries like America - and particularly America - with its legacy of free-enterprise and strong economy, must cease to exist if the world is to become one large collectivist state, which is the aim.

The effect of global monetary control is the key to this end goal and the assembly of regional global economic blocs (America - the NAFTA trade agreement currently in formation, Europe - the EU already in position and expanding and Asia - far eastern countries already looking to a common currency and economic amalgamation) are already forming as initial stepping stones to this end.

Diagram: acknowledgements to David Icke


Seen in this light, the destruction of the American economy, its constitution and spirit of free-enterprise, makes sense. It is seen as vital to weaken her both militarily and financially.

The Council on Foreign Relations - the American-based executive arm of the New World Order élites, working through the back door of the US government - is the prime mover in arranging this state of affairs. Its members' aspirations aren't bound to nation-state loyalty, but to world economic and political dominance. High US government positions are totally commandeered by CFR representatives, positioned in the heart of the administration, ideally poised in the driving seat to achieve this end.


Conclusion

And so we see that that fateful meeting in 1910 at Jekyll Island, was just one initial step in the long road to world financial dominance by a group of men, whose mechanism would eventually engulf the entire globe. The Federal Reserve System together with the IMF/World Bank is the outcome. The strangulation of the American economy through social handouts, the selling off of chunks of national infrastructure, the run-down of its manufacturing industry, the expansion of a financially burdensome government bureaucracy, the set-aside of millions of acres of agricultural land (touted as environmentalism), the flooding of the US with millions of Mexican immigrants providing cheap labour and the back-door amalgamation of Mexico and Canada along with the US into one large collectivist socialist state with a new common currency - the Amero - are the tools by which this can become reality, acting as another stepping stone toward the new global reality.

Back off Blair!

In one of Blair’s last speeches before standing down, he has dealt a parting blow at the media, branding it a “feral beast, just tearing people and reputations to bits,”.

But in addition he lambasted the alternative on-line media, blogs (such as this) and online forums saying that they "can be even more pernicious, less balanced, more intent on the latest conspiracy theory multiplied by five".

Obviously things are getting pretty hot for the likes of Blair and his minders who realise that their pernicious games are being laid fair and square for all to see by that very alternative media.

At the behest of those same minders, Blair’s ten-year stint in office has been nothing short of appalling, curbing most of our civil liberties and rights in the name of a phony international war on terror, banning public demonstrations in many areas in the capital, instigating, almost on a daily basis, more restrictions in the build-up of a police state which pokes its nose into every aspect of our lives, taking the country to war in Iraq on the back of trumped-up false evidence of WMD, getting caught with its trousers down in the cash-for-honours scam... the list goes on. And he has the arrogance to clamp down on an alternative media that is rightly bringing these gross injustices and breaches of executive power into public light!

The freely available flow of information on the web has been one of the greatest enabling tools that man has ever been given, a true democratic platform on which free debate and dissemination of un-censored news is available.

For once in the entire history of mankind can we now use this information to build up a picture of the realities of life, not the sanitised and spun versions of reality fed us by the mainstream media, who have, despite Blair's finger of accusation, been under the scrutiny of government and those who manage our government, for many a long year.

Through the Internet and web I have been able to disseminate a vast amount of alternative views on geopolitical affairs - some completely wide of the mark, but much of which helps me to identify and glean the truth behind many of the serious problems in the world today. In addition, the web’s resources have greatly helped me with my health, leading me to sources of information that the NHS would rather not inform me of, because it isn’t in the interest of those controlling elite who manage big pharma who in turn manipulate the health system.

Under Blair’s proposed media regulator, will all of this vital information simply evaporate, leading us into a new dark age?

You bet your life it will, because it’s current availability works against the interests of the global cartel of which Blair is one of its sorry scivvies, who want us to be kept uninformed, and merely their acquiescing lap dogs.

While the mainstream TV news in Britain now only concentrates on police state issues like paedophiles, ASBOs, curbs on this, that and everything else, interlaced with mindless drivel about pop superstars, and programming devoid of any serious, balanced debate about world or social affairs, concentrating instead on game shows and reality TV - all part of the deliberate dumbing-down of society to nullify brains and divert attention - the web, a few independent publishers' book titles and one or two independently produced magazines - who tell it like it really is - are all we have left to keep our minds informed and in balance.

Try to take that away Blair (or Brown) and you will have the wrath, outrage and opposition of honest and decent human beings to deal with, whose aim is to seek the truth in an attempt to make this place a better world. This is one step too far!

Energy saving - who’s kidding who

Hot on my comments on the man-made global warming hoax last Friday, predictable sounds are emanating from the Kremlin in Whitehall. Fuehrer-to-be-Brown is already pontificating about penalising homeowners who refuse to install so-called energy-saving light bulbs in a bid to cut down on global warming. What a load of tosh!

Apart from the points I raised in last Friday’s blog that man’s contribution to global warming through carbon emissions is miniscule in relation to that naturally created by mother earth, the UN’s own documents readily admit that man-made emissions only contribute a total of 6%.

So what’s this all about? Well, it’s the same old agenda. Invent a scenario of some impending catastrophe and get everybody to pay for it both financially and socially, thereby keeping them pinned down and firmly under your thumb.

As Christopher Booker pointed out in the Daily Mail yesterday, the government’s plans to force everyone to adopt energy-saving light bulbs is going to do little or nothing to curb energy use - the generation of which is supposed to be playing havoc with our planet (clearly untrue), and is going to do everything for the political/industrial control complex to be both quids in and increase their stranglehold upon we the witless.

Booker makes the following points on ‘energy-saving’ light bulbs:
  • Although energy-saving or compact florescent bulbs (CFLs) are supposed to only consume a fifth of the energy consumed by equivalent tungsten filament bulbs and save between 5m and 8m euros a year in fuel bills, the cost to our government alone of implementing their use would be £3 billion (great for the manufacturers and their shareholders).
  • The quality of illumination is inferior to the standard tungsten light bulb and like strip lights, require several minutes to achieve their full intensity - hardly saving on usage time.
  • Because the light emitted from CFLs fluctuates at 50 cycles per second and is not the steady form of illumination you get from filament bulbs, the flicker, especially when used in reading lamps, has been quoted as being conducive to headaches.
  • They are heavier and often more uglier than traditional tungsten bulbs and are 20 times more expensive.
  • The light they give off is said to be harsher and less pleasant.
  • Because they are more complex to make than tungsten lamps, their production entails ten times more energy - like those who support nuclear power generation whose manufacture entails a much greater degree of energy when viewed holistically, they conveniently overlook this counter-productive fact.
  • CFLs do not work with dimmer switches.
  • About 50% of UK light fittings won’t take them, but guess who will likely have to stump up the cost of installing new fittings?
  • Because they will not function in temperatures above 60C, or lower than -20C, they cannot be used in microwaves cookers or fridge freezers.
  • Their technology employs toxic chemicals including mercury vapour and their disposal in landfill sites has been banned anyway.
  • They must be kept on for long periods of time if they are to reveal their energy-saving benefits - a piece of doublespeak logic if ever I heard it - and the more they are switched on and off the less their life span.
But never mind, this is just another example of idiotic fascist-like lunacy to emanate from a feckless government that wears the little mental capacity it possesses in its collective balls and is pushed around by a bunch of dangerous criminals who are covertly running this planet.

So if the inspector from the your local council comes round demanding that you downgrade to this politically correct means of lighting, all on the back of a man-made global warming myth, tell him - or her - to get sxxxxxd!

Controlling your mind

Former Chief Medical Officer for Northern Finland, Dr Rauni Kilde was a well respected individual. She has held the highest medical positions in Lapland specialising in public health, health administration and tropical diseases, is listed in Who’s Who’s for the World, Medicine & Engineering and Science & Engineering and is a retired president of the Nursing College of Lapland. She has been regularly attending the lecture circuits of the world that deal with neuroscience and has acted as Finland’s representative to the World Health Organisation.

But what has consumed Dr Kilde’s attention is the growing use of mind control technologies by many world governments and their military. Her well-researched and produced TV documentary on this very subject only received one airing and was then withdrawn from the airwaves. Indeed her involvement in this dangerous subject has brought her a life of hell. The very mind controlling techniques that she has for so long tried to bring to public attention are now being used against her along with a programme of directed sabotage and theft of her property and her computer which has become unusable because of constant hacking.


The warning

In an article in the Canadian newspaper yesterday, reporter Lucien Desjardins conveyed her shocking warning to the world of advanced plans by certain governments in the US and Europe, to microchip all newborns.

"Implanted human beings can be followed anywhere. Their brain functions can be remotely monitored by supercomputers and even altered through the changing of frequencies," wrote Dr Kilde. "Guinea pigs in secret experiments have included prisoners, soldiers, mental patients, handicapped children, deaf and blind people, homosexuals, single women, the elderly, school children, and any group of people considered "marginal" by the elite experimenters. The published experiences of prisoners in Utah State Prison, for example, are shocking to the conscience.

"Today's microchips operate by means of low-frequency radio waves that target them. With the help of satellites, the implanted person can be tracked anywhere on the globe. Such a technique was among a number tested in the Iraq war, according to Dr. Carl Sanders, who invented the intelligence-manned interface (IMI) biotic, which is injected into people. (Earlier during the Vietnam War, soldiers were injected with the Rambo chip, designed to increase adrenaline flow into the bloodstream.) The 20-billion-bit/second supercomputers at the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) could now "see and hear" what soldiers experience in the battlefield with a remote monitoring system (RMS).


"When a 5-micromillimeter microchip (the diameter of a strand of hair is 50 micromillimeters) is placed into optical nerve of the eye,"
, Dr. Kilde indicates "it draws neuro-impulses from the brain that embody the experiences, smells, sights, and voice of the implanted person. Once transferred and stored in a computer, these neuro-impulses can be projected back to the person's brain via the microchip to be re-experienced. Using a RMS, a land-based computer operator can send electromagnetic messages (encoded as signals) to the nervous system, affecting the target's performance. With RMS, healthy persons can be induced to see hallucinations and to hear voices in their heads. "

"Every thought, reaction, hearing, and visual observation causes a certain neurological potential, spikes, and patterns in the brain and its electromagnetic fields, which can now be decoded into thoughts, pictures, and voices, " Dr. Kilde added. "Electromagnetic stimulation can therefore change a person's brainwaves and affect muscular activity, causing painful muscular cramps experienced as torture."

Scary! It sounds like the stuff of science fiction. But is it?


Background

According to Ken Adachi http://educate-yourself.org/mc/ and a wealth of supporting literature on the subject, plans to create a mind controlled workers society have been on the books for some time. Fritz Lang’s ‘Metropolis’ and George Orwell’s ‘1984’ are just two powerful portrayals of such a world and to many seem rather fantastic and removed, yet that reality could be closer than we think if one follows the train of development of mind control technologies that have been quietly forming in the deepest shadows of equally shady government programmes and willed by a new world order hell bent on engaging in tight control of our lives for their own ends.

The current technology arose out of experiments staged by the Nazis before and during World War II. The incarceration of the Jews in concentration camps during the war provided a wealth of experimental material which included testing mind control technologies both trauma and electronic-based. Under the auspices of ‘Project Paperclip’ at the end of the war, thousands of Nazis were secretly moved to the US where the technologies that had been developed in Germany both before and during the war encompassing rocket science and, more worryingly, psychological and mind control techniques, were further developed. At this time thousands of children, often dispossessed, were snatched off the streets and used as guinea pigs in mind control experiments staged in covert underground facilities developed by the ever powerful military industrial complex in league with rogue elements of government.

Governments had also been experimenting with mind control using methods that had grown out of old occult techniques where victims were subject to a massive psychological and physical trauma at an early age. This which would then create a form of schizophrenia, or multiple ‘personalities’, and some of these ‘personalities’ could then be programmed without the awareness of parallel ‘personalities’, to undertake a specific task, for instance, murder. To unlock the particular personality which would have been programmed to carry out such a frightful task without remorse, a ‘trigger’ would be sent to the brain, often in the form of a sound, word or particular impulse.


The Montauk Boys

Experiments with Extra Low Frequency (ELF) techniques were conducted from an underground facility at the old USAF base at Fort Hero at Montauk on Long Island, New York in the 70s. In his book ‘The Montauk Project’, Preston B Nichols, claims that he was employed at this facility, to work on a clandestine project. That project involved the use of ELF waves, or ‘telepathic waves’ to effect the brain. His discovery came when examining the abilities of psychics, Nicholls found that at a certain time each day their minds would become ‘jammed’ and would be unable to think effectively. To locate the source of this ‘jamming’ which Nichols suspected was some sort of radio interference, he found that emissions in the 410-430MHz region were routinely being transmitted from a radar array on the old base at the same time as these ‘jamming’ experiences were taking place in the psychics’ minds and it is these precise frequencies that resonate with an adult’s head. By modulating a pulsed ELF signal onto a 410-430MHz carrier wave of around 16Hz - a frequency the brain is highly sensitive to - serious manipulation of brain functions can occur.

The radar array was, in fact, part of a covert government programme into the mind controlling effects of ELF waves and on several occasions when the array was transmitting, strange and bizarre things would happen in the nearby town of Montauk. These would manifest themselves as a sudden spike in crime which would suddenly stop after two hours, animals would come out of the surrounding woods into the town en masse and sometimes would crash though windows and behave in erratic ways. Freak storms would also occur. Subsequent investigations by Nichols revealed that these behaviour patterns and meteorological phenomena could be directly traced to the ELF transmission times from the radar array.

Starting in 1976 and throughout the 1980’s, Al Bielek, a participant who was involved in many aspects of this mind control programme at Montauk, estimates that at least 250,000 kidnapped teenage children were ‘programmed’, not only at Montauk but at 25 other clandestine facilities, to go into action at some later time of life at the behest of black government to undertake - on the receipt of the ‘trigger’ - some destructive or disruptive conduct. Other boys grew up to enter mainstream American life in influential positions in the media, business, medical and legal professions, law enforcement and the military. They would do their master’s bidding, acting from the warped perspective of their pre-programmed minds.

When one considers the almost pathological support given by many people from news anchors, research scientists to politicians over matters that balanced minds would question, on a whole number of subjects from the use of toxic elements in drugs and vaccines to the outragreous and continued presence of the US in Iraq, which by any humane criterion would be viewed as insane, then one can add credence to the claims of Bielek.


Advanced psychological weaponry


However, the day is fast approaching when not just hand-picked individuals will be subject to these enormities, but all of us.

In reality, the arsenal of psychotronic and electromagnetic weapons now available to organisations such as the CIA is way ahead of our common conception. In his recent book ‘Hidden Truth, Forbidden Knowledge’, Disclosure Project brainchild, Dr Steven Greer MD, tells of his chilling experiences with such clandestine might. Dr Greer’s lifelong attempts to make public the knowledge by high ranking officials from government and the military that extraterrestrials are, and have been present upon our planet for some time and that a clandestine element of the US government is using the Star Wars project as a military affront to these benign extraterrestrial intelligences, whose technological ability and intellect is far superior to ours: http://www.disclosureproject.org/ has been hounded by the very black government-sponsored intelligence agencies to whom his criticism is directed.

Dr Greer, from an early age, developed a psychic ability that enabled him to communicate with these extraterrestrial intelligences to the point that he gleaned an enormous amount of information both about their concern for our worldly sanity and lack of it and the human rogue element who are determined to eradicate them from the skies using advanced weaponry, much of it developed from captured alien craft. Failing to pay Greer off through promises of wealth and power, these clandestine elements of government - who even the then CIA Director, James Woolsey, was even unaware - and the military industrial complex staged psychotronic warfare with Greer, whose heightened psychic abilities enabled him to confirm its source, but often paralysing him with severe cramps in bed and even simultaneously inducing metastatic cancer in both he and Shari Adamiak, his colleague, Shari later dying from it in 1998.

So the technology available to these covert elements of government and their agencies is awesome.


The emerging control grid

As well as the threat of obligatory micro chipping all newborns, is the growing microwave grid.

Everywhere antennae towers are being erected, in some places far more than would seem plausible for mere mobile phone transmissions. Unless a company tries to erect one just outside your back garden evoking the wrath of its neighbours, their appearance is largely taken for granted as the spectre of these arrays falls into the human subconcious and becomes part of the largely accepted environment.

As Ken Adachi comments: “It's not an accident that the frequency band chosen for cell phone use just happens to match the second order waves that Wilhelm Reich discovered in the late 1940's to effect thought transmission and allow the mind to be manipulated without the victim realizing it”. Although today the sheer unwieldiness of low frequency antennae makes them impracticable, microwave and UHF frequencies have been utilised to carry low frequency, pulsed signals which can seriously interfere with human brain functions. Therefore it comes as disturbing news that the new TETRA system utilised by the UKs emergency and police services uses a 350-400MHz carrier signal to carry 17.6MHz pulsed signals, precisely those frequencies that effect the human brain and can cause fits and epilectic reactions.

According to a document criticising TETRA http://www.hippy.freeserve.co.uk/tetra.htm Sir William Stewart, former chair of the Microbiological Research Authority when asked to comment on the chosen frequency usage of TETRA commented: “It appears that the government officials who provided input to the Stewart Report were well aware of the Airwave specifications at the time, but chose not to inform the Independent Expert Group about the TETRA technology, and remained quiet when it came to the issues of low frequency effects”.

In an article by Tim Rifat, the owner of Psi-Ops Management http://www.whale.to/b/rifat6.html he claims that “the British government is in the process of mind controlling the entire UK population using CIA research from the Pandora Project and the so-called TETRA system which costs £2.5 billion will place 30,000 transmitters in every urban conurbation in the UK. Further to this, the British Army has long experience of using microwaves for murder and mind control in Northern Ireland. In 1977, the CIA contacted Margaret Thatcher and gave her all the details, ELF frequencies, to induce cancer, paranoia (4.5 Hz), depression (6.66 Hz), manic rage (11.3 Hz) --- To support this assertion that the British Army have been targeting Catholic areas with high-power microwaves, Dr Damien Burn - 38 years General Practitioner in the Falls Road, West Belfast - and Mary Allen, South Armagh Cross Maglen - have protested vehemently that British Army bases are broadcasting high-power microwaves, causing massive cancer deaths among the Catholics.

“Strange cancers which never would occur are being found in many Catholics and the largest cause of death in Catholics now is cancer. Whole street-fulls of Catholics next to army bases are dying of cancer. This was reported by Amanda Doherty in the Sunday Mirror, 12.07.98, in the Features Eire edition: Living in Fear, the Cancer that Stalks our Streets.


“The microwaving of peace protesters in Greenham Common, a US airbase in Britain, is common knowledge. The murder and mind control by the British Army of the entire Catholic community of Northern Ireland is not. Taking this into account with the TETRA system that seeks to turn British police and the public into zombies using microwave and ELF, the deployment of microwave transmitters in Cyprus has a more covertly nasty raison d'etre than simply extending NATO's communication network”
.

With these illustrations of past use, to what emergency capability might TETRA be put? In what circumstances might government feel it is fit to utilise this grid as a means of control over its citizens?


Conclusion

Is our government, the military and police really going to engage a mind control war upon its citizens? You may consider this all really too far-fetched, yet the evidence and historical precedent is in the public domain to support such contentions.

Don’t forget that this world is run by a mere handful - relatively speaking - of highly influential, control maniacs with no respect for you and I and have gained the upper hand with regard to our destiny, whether it be the control of banks, governments, industry, the pharmaceutical and health industries, the mass media etc. etc. in tandem with the most awesome advanced technologies we can only guess at.

With careful manipulation - and yes, mind control - of those beneath them in the cascading hierarchy of pyramidal control, where each individual, or set of individuals, is only aware on a need to know basis, very often fed ‘spun’ truths and misinformation about what it is that he or she is undertaking, this whole Big Brother nightmare scenario could and is emerging. Half the battle is to find out what is going on, then at least you can identify the global enemy and try to prepare yourself.

Keeping us under their thumb

The day when each and every one of us in this country is tracked and traced throughout every minute of the day, 24/7, 365/12 is growing ever nearer.

With RFID tagging of our purchases, tracking and tracing of our cars, eavesdropping on our conversations at home through the in-built microphones in our PCs, ID Cards etc, etc already being rolled out, - and for those who think I am exaggerating please go to http://www.prisonplanet.com/archive_big_brother.html - I am convinced that the end goal of the controlling elite is to be able to check up on us at will to elicit our whole lifestyle, movements, desires, conversations, in fact every aspect of our daily lives.

This is all coming into place in a drip by drip way and each day the media brings fresh news of the latest initiatives that form the building blocks of this total Big Brother surveillance society with further disciplinary initiatives for those who don’t behave in accordance with the NWO blueprint.

Today we see reports of a new police initiative to fingerprint all drivers who get stopped by them for whatever reason. Their prints, obtained by a hand-held electronic device will automatically consult with the national fingerprint database which comprises some 6.5 million prints and will enable them to confirm their identity, particularly useful if they have a criminal record.

Currently being trialled by 10 forces in England and Wales, the scheme is supposed to save time as identification can be processed within a few minutes and avoiding the need to take suspects to the police station.

The police say that these prints would not be kept if a person was not identified as having a criminal record, but are we to believe that they would not be retained on some database.

As with so many other similar Big Brother type initiatives, it’s sold to us as some innocent means of saving time and money and the public have nothing to fear if they are law-abiding citizens with no criminal record. Yet, it all smacks of being suspected as guilty until proved otherwise. The tables have turned. Whether we like it or not, in this brave new world we are all being regarded as potential criminals who have to prove our innocence. What a depressing state of affairs!

It’s happening everywhere too and seemingly with our consent as we dream walk in this surveillance state nightmare. In Dumfries and Galloway in Scotland 92% of parents agreed to a system whereby school children are to be fingerprinted to allow them to borrow books from school libraries. Again, it’s all sold on the basis of ease of operation - the kids who are fingerprinted will not require any assistance while borrowing their books. Objections to this scheme have been received from academics on civil liberties grounds, but the overwhelming agreement of the scheme by so many unthinking parents rather makes the civil liberty dissenters look rather marginal.

Currently such fingerprinting schemes, particularly those that require the transmission of the data to a central data bank, have to have the information files heavily compressed in order not to use up too much bandwidth and transmission time. It is this compression which worries the techies, as the infinitely subtle characteristics of fingerprints really require the best resolution to make accurate identifications. Clearly the economies being made could lead to false ID.

With news in the last few days of parents being subjected to ‘super nannies’ - government-sponsored adjudication of parenting for those with ASBO-potential kids, not ot mention the plethora of other initiatives that this government is rolling out by the barrel load; and whose reception is seemingly accepted by an acquiescing majority in the false belief that it is for their security or that it is for a safer society (completely bogus beliefs), I dread the thought of what kind of society we are going to end up living in in the next ten or twenty years.

But new entrants into our brave new world will see it as all being part of daily life and will have no concept of those old dearly-held values of freedom of speech and expression and the right to be regarded as innocent until proven guilty in a world where we could go about our business without state and corporate Big Brother breathing down our necks 24/7

The Military Commissions Act 2006 (HR6166)

A rather misleading title for a bill that has sealed the fate of America and its citizens.

The Military Commissions Act, which was passed by Congress on Thursday September 28th has now been signed by Bush, a bill which was hastily run through Congress with many members not even reading it.

Infowars.com website encapsulates the key features of HR6166:

  • Doesn't suspend, as is accommodated for in the Constitution, but completely abolishes Habeas Corpus permanently - the right of the detainee to see the evidence against him and not be locked up for eternity based on the arbitrary will of the state.
  • Contains a definition of "wrongfully aiding the enemy" which labels all American citizens who breach their "allegiance" to President Bush and the actions of his government as terrorists subject to possible arrest, torture and conviction in front of a military tribunal.
  • The definition of torture that the legislation cites is US code title 18 section 2340. This is a broad definition of torture and completely lacks the specific clarity of the Geneva Conventions. This definition allows the use of torture that is, "incidental to lawful sanctions." In alliance with the bill's blanket authority for President Bush to define the Geneva Conventions as he sees fit, this legislates the use of torture.
  • Destruction of any property is defined as terrorism, which is deemed punishable by any means of the military tribunal's choosing.
  • Any violent activity whatsoever is defined as terrorism if it takes place near a designated protected building, such as a charity building.
  • A change of the definition of "pillaging" turns all illegal occupation of property and all theft into terrorism. This makes squatters and petty thieves enemy combatants.
  • In light of Greg Palast's recent hounding by Homeland Security, after they accused him of potentially giving terrorists key information about U.S. "critical infrastructure" when filming Exxon's Baton Rouge refinery (clear photos of which were publicly available on Google Maps), sub-section 27 of section 950v. should send chills down the spine of all investigative journalists and even news-gatherers. It defines collecting information clandestinely which is then used against the interests of the U.S. government as terrorism.
  • The bill allows hearsay evidence (obtained via phony confessions after torture) to be considered by the military tribunal and bars the suspect from even having knowledge of the charges against him - making a case for defense impossible. This is guaranteed to produce 100% conviction rates as you would expect in the dictatorships of Uzbekistan or Zimbabwe and other torture protagonists who are in many cases allied with the Bush administration and provide phony confessions obtained from torture that allow the U.S. government to scare its people with the threat of imaginary Al-Qaeda terror cells waiting to kill them.
  • All of these provisions apply to American citizens. Yale Law Professor Bruce Ackerman states in the L.A. Times, "The compromise legislation....authorizes the president to seize American citizens as enemy combatants, even if they have never left the United States. And once thrown into military prison, they cannot expect a trial by their peers or any other of the normal protections of the Bill of Rights." Similarly, law Professor Marty Lederman explains: "this [subsection (ii) of the definition of 'unlawful enemy combatant'] means that if the Pentagon says you're an unlawful enemy combatant -- using whatever criteria they wish -- then as far as Congress, and U.S. law, is concerned, you are one, whether or not you have had any connection to 'hostilities' at all."
  • In section 950j. the bill criminalizes any challenge to the legislation's legality by the Supreme Court or any United States court. Attorney General, Alberto Gonzales has already threatened federal judges to shut up and not question Bush's authority on the torture of detainees.
Following in the wake of Patriot Acts I and II, this latest and final dismantling of the US constitution and Bill of Rights will render America a facsist military dictatorship - a veritable Nazi-style Germany.

Yet the American press have been totally unconcerned about what is the most damning piece of legislation in America’s history. The mainstream media, as always, are deliberately set up prevent Americans from hearing the truth.

According to Reuters "He is trying to help Republicans maintain control of the U.S. Congress by contending they are stronger on national security, a stance with which Democrats vehemently disagree".

Which way will this swing the pendulum next month in the mid-term elections?

It really is goodbye America.
