Bretton Woods, not Yalta

Once it was deemed the right time to invade Europe, the Allies landed with Zorro leading them, and the war was over in a matter of months. There would never again be a world war, for HR had already put the final touches on its financial control of the entire world.

 

First, the market crash of 1929 had been a diabolical way of replacing the pound with the dollar as we’ve seen in an earlier blog. Thereafter, there was nothing to stop the US Dollar from becoming the world reserve currency. The world changed forever not at the famous Yalta Conference in 1945, but at Bretton Woods, a year earlier. It seems that HR had things well in hand from the beginning. With the world in chaos, in 1944, at the Bretton Woods conference, the Federal Reserve Board had no difficulty in getting most of the major countries to tie their currency to the US Dollar, thus making the latter the first official world currency of reference. Later, in 1971, when the gold standard was dropped, the dollar became a legitimate world fiat reserve currency. HR had achieved the ultimate in financial wizardry.

 

The two world wars were definitely about democracy, if we accept democracy as meaning control of currency and credit by private bankers, as explained in a previous blog. One should never forget that the Bank of England created in 1694, the Bank of North America created in 1781, and the FED created in 1913 were and are all made up of private bankers. HR, in the City, controls all the currencies of the world with the use of the US Dollar that’s managed by the FED, its visible arm.

Maginot Line Anomaly

In analyzing any world development, we have to keep in mind that HR’s FED looks at the world as a game board and studies the moves it plans to make long in advance. For instance, when the Maginot Line was built on France’s German border prior to WWII, China, Japan and Germany were very much on HR’s mind. And to better understand what was going on, we need only ask why the French decided to build such an archaic and costly structure as the Maginot Line. It was at a time when air and tank warfare was already well established, so why didn’t the French build tanks and airplanes instead of a wall? If they had, the French superiority would have been insurmountable and Germany would have been stopped dead in its tracks, as any military strategist will confirm. Colonel Charles de Gaulle had written a book in 1934 in which he advocated mobile mechanized warfare involving tanks and aircrafts. One of his proposals was the construction of a light, high-performance D-2 tank instead of the heavier B-1s, which cost three times more. The Maginot Line, which cost around seven billion (1939) francs, could have been used to finance the construction of nine thousand D-2 tanks and the equivalent of one thousand Spitfire aircrafts. That, added to the fifteen hundred or so aircrafts and the thousands of tanks France already had, would have been overwhelming. Furthermore, the French were leaders in tank warfare; their WWI FT17, the first tank with a turret, was copied worldwide and in WWII, the B-1bis tank easily outperformed the German tanks.

 

When HR’s FED started promoting and financing the Maginot Line in 1930, in view of waging WWII, it was also financing the huge armament machine in Germany. It knew its plan would make it possible to get two birds with one stone. It knew that getting an isolationist U.S. to attack Japan, or even getting the U.S. to wage another war in Europe, would be next to impossible. But what if Japan attacked the U.S.?

 

If the Maginot Line were constructed, it would allow Germany to skirt around it, go through France, and conquer the allies with lightning speed. A very desperate Japan, facing a total embargo, would feel confident in having an “invincible” Germany as an ally and would be tempted to attack the U.S. If it did, not only would the U.S. have to go to war against the Japanese Empire, but it would likely get involved in the European conflict while it was at it. So as expected, in 1941, after seeing how easily Germany had defeated the allies and faced with the devastating embargo imposed on it by HR’s FED, Imperial Japan decided to act aggressively by attacking Pearl Harbor in December of that year. Not surprisingly, Japan was totally destroyed while the U.S. suffered one hundred and six thousand casualties. After the 1945 bombings, during which over five hundred thousand Japanese civilians died, Japan was occupied by U.S. forces and transformed into a market economy, but similar to post-war Germany, it was a country without a military. HR’s FED then opened the credit tap and turned the tiny archipelago into the second greatest economy on the planet.  German and Japanese cars flooded America in no time. The Japanese products were shoddy at first, but in just a few years, quality control got things right. HR’s FED transformed two broken down bankrupt countries into superpowers overnight, just like they did recently with China. Who are the real supermen?

The Pound Sterling VS the US Dollar

After the creation of the FED in 1913, HR had the wherewithal to get rid of what was left of the Holy Roman Empire and create a market economy in Europe. The first order of business was to get rid of the Tsars by financing the Bolsheviks in preparation for WWI. But as it turned out, Lenin took Russia out of the war instead, and the war to end all wars failed. HR’s FED immediately started laying the groundwork for WWII, and decided, in the interim, to get rid of the Pound Sterling as a world reserve currency, for the US Dollar showed a lot more promise as a currency of reference.

So, HR’s FED took advantage of the twenty-year pause between wars to advance its agenda and perpetrate the 1929 market crash. Like in all market manipulations, the bankers made all the wrong decisions in order to create a major market bubble, and when they felt the time was right, they burst it and pretended to fix things by again making all the wrong decisions. That is a well-established procedure as we’ve seen in 2008.

After WWI, America had become the greatest market economy in the world and most of Europe, especially Britain, started buying into the American dream. Since in those days gold was still used in international transactions, gold flowed—or had to appear to flow—into the U.S. as the market bubble grew, and when it burst, HR’s FED simply told  the world that the English gold reserves were depleted. HR and its banker friends on both sides of the Atlantic had worked in unison in order to officially move the English gold from the Bank of England vaults to the Federal Reserve Bank vaults, or rather, to appear to do so, for in reality, the FED answers to HR established in the City. Everyone could see that England was investing heavily in America and after the crash, the three Gorgon sisters, Reuters, AFP and AP, simply told the world that the pound was no longer adequately backed by gold, and confidence in the hallowed currency eroded. It was a rather easy tour de main, for the books of HR’s FED and the Bank of England have never had an independent audit.

At the end of the day, the market crash of 1929 had been a diabolical way of replacing the pound with the dollar while at the same time making it appear that it was the result of legitimate business transactions in a free-market economy. HR’s FED depends on the democratic process for its very survival and it can’t allow anything to undermine it.

Anomalies of History

Historical anomalies started happening in conjunction with the rise of the Roman Catholic Church and have continued to this day. The first anomaly was when the Catholic Christians took over the Roman Empire infrastructure like a hermit crab does when it squats in the shell of a sea snail. For some unknown reason, Emperor Constantine conveniently went east to Istanbul to rule over the Byzantine Empire thus leaving the western part of the Empire to the Popes.

The second anomaly has to do with Clovis being recruited to destroy the much greater European populations of Arian Christians who believed that Jesus was a prophet sent by God, not the son of God. Oddly enough, the history books refer to the Arian Christians as barbarians.

The third anomaly has to do with the Popes anointing kings and having them rule over the different parts of Europe. Again, history books are very vague when referring to the Holy Roman Empire. As a matter of fact, they first refer to it as being a German Empire, although France was its cornerstone from the very beginning. To be sure, the Holy Roman Empire was European although it wasn’t referred to as such, and it unofficially started with Clovis.

The fourth anomaly is due to the fact that the Catholic Church of Rome was the undeclared financial power of Europe. And because it was a spiritual power, it had to disguise its temporal power any way it could. Great families like the Medicis handled the cash while the Popes used diplomacy, intermarriages, crusades, wars, inquisitions in order to encourage their kings to keep Europe Catholic. The reason history is so boring is because it focuses on dates and details instead of on the why. It’s much like today when we concentrate on what the US President does instead of on the why as dictated by the House of Rothschild residing in the City.

The fifth anomaly is much more interesting, for it deals with how these bankers destroyed the very inefficient Holy Roman Empire as a financial power and replaced it with the best and most efficient system imaginable: credit. First, they created a parliament in 1689 and had the people elect their representatives. The latter, in wanting to do things before the taxes were collected, a very human foible that the bankers were betting on, started borrowing from the bankers in 1694. The parliamentarians ran the country but could only do what the bankers allowed them to do or what the bankers decided to finance. For the first time in their history, the bankers not only controlled credit but were sure of having their loans repaid, and the Industrial Revolution naturally followed. As common man started having access to credit, it became the golden age of mankind.

Praise be to Bankers

The Catholic Christians took control of the Roman Empire around 325 AD. Their first king, Clovis, started cleaning up the Arian Christians at the end of the 5th century. Soon all the Arians Christians of Europe were either massacred or forced to convert to the Catholic Christian faith. Jesus was now officially son of God throughout Europe.

Then all the newly anointed kings managed the Holy Roman Empire making sure that everybody adhered to the Nicean Creed. The Pope ruled the empire using diplomacy, contracting intermarriages among the royal families and having the kings make war when required. When a large group defied the official religion, massacres, inquisitions, crusades and abominations of all kinds were used to bring the heretics in line. For instance in the case of the Albi Crusade in 1209, the entire population of Cathars was butchered over a period of fifty years, several hundred thousand individuals in all.

Nevertheless, the Jews and the French Huguenots never stopped practicing their faith. Henry IV, a protestant converted to Catholicism for the cause, almost succeeded in establishing religious freedom in France, but he was assassinated and protestants were persecuted with renewed vigor.

As stated in a previous blog, the protestants and the Huguenots established themselves first in a pro-protestant Amsterdam and then joined forces with their counterparts, in 1688, in London. They created the English Parliament in 1689 and the Bank of England in 1694, and from there, they went on to destroy the Holy Roman Empire.

The bankers had thus established democracy and the credit system as we know them today, and it was a great day for the whole of mankind. Although the English bankers didn’t yet have a notion of what a market economy was, it wouldn’t be long before Mayer Amschel Bauer would take control of the Bank of England and create the greatest market economy the world has ever known, that of the USA.

Praise be to that great man, the greatest man who ever lived, bar none!

Stuck in the Present

Before we broke the time barrier, we were stuck in the present like all animals on earth. We responded to stimulus, and that was that. The day we realized we would someday die is when we started tying the past, present and future together. That’s what we call intelligence or godliness.

Nonetheless, common man was socially victimized right up to the ‘English Industrial Revolution’ in 1694, the year the Bank of England was created, and especially the ‘American Industrial Revolution’ in 1781, the year the Bank of North America was created.

Bankers, in wanting to create wealth, went about loaning money to the Governments in order for them to create jobs for common man. Parliament in England and Congress in the US then collected the taxes in order to make sure their loans were repaid. That’s what we call democracy; it’s a win-win situation for all concerned.

Since those revolutions, common man has looked towards the future in wanting to create, build, invent and dream. The last two hundred and some years have offered common man the best opportunities that man has ever known. No group of common people in the whole history of mankind had ever had it so good.

Nowadays, it seems that the opportunities offered common man for creating, building, inventing and dreaming are on the wane. We don’t care much to look at how we got here—how our financial world was created—and we don’t see much hope for the future. We’re stuck in the present once again.

The only hope common man has, if he wants to avoid being ever more victimized by Big Brother, is to understand how Big Brother created the world of finance in the first place, for only then will he see how he can start dreaming again. And that’s what my research is all about.

Now on to Europe

At the beginning of the 20th century, there was only one major market economy, that of the USA.

After the passing of the Federal Reserve Act in 1913, the bankers were in a position to pursue their plans to create the two other major market economies that were already on the drawing board: China and Europe.

China was on the verge of having permanent borders and a national identity, so getting a market economy going there wasn’t going to be too difficult. On the other hand, Europe consisted of many strong national identities and there, it would be much more difficult. The financial infrastructure of Europe is still under construction.

However, now that China is a fully operating world market economy, it’s now time to concentrate on Europe and complete the job that was started in 1914. In order for Europe to work as a unit, the government in Brussels has to have clout, and the way to do that is to collect the taxes throughout the EU. That means that the individual countries will lose a good chunk of their sovereignty, an almost impossible situation to contemplate. But it’s going to happen, of that we can be sure.

That’s what’s going on right now; the City, the center of decision, and the FED, the center of operations, are kicking butt. They started by reducing credit to the smaller countries of Europe, but those with a high profile, the PIIGS countries. Things will get worse before they get better until the day all the people’s representatives agree to combine their efforts by accepting to have the European Parliament decide for all its members and raise a federal tax.

There are already European supervisors in place. Soon those supervisors will be properly elected as Federal Parliamentarians and the EU will be a done deal.

Anomalies of the AD Era

If we read the previous entries and believe that WWI was instigated by HR in the City, and financed by the FED, we can only conclude that something went very wrong, for the war to end all wars stopped like a wet firecracker after human loss of unbelievable proportions. Here’s why WWII was immediately put on the drawing board.

 

 

On the western front, the Americans had landed in France in June 1917. On the eastern front, following the October Revolution in 1917, Lenin took the Russians out of the war on December 23rd of that same year. Just when the East-West squeeze to destroy what was left of the Holy Roman Empire in Europe was on, Lenin who was a patriot and wanted agrarian reforms for his people, backed out. That’s why he was assassinated and replaced by Stalin. If we don’t believe it, maybe we should look at the events that led to Louis T. McFadden’s death.

 

 

Louis T. McFadden’s was Chairman of the very prestigious House Committee on Banking and Currency from 1920 to 1931. He accused HR’s FED of having caused the Great Depression, and also of having funded the Bolshevik Revolution, and in 1932, he moved to impeach President Hoover while bringing conspiracy charges against the FED. Again in 1933, he moved to impeach the Secretary of the Treasury, two assistant Secretaries of the Treasury and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, as well as the officers and directors of the FED’s twelve regional banks. Both legal actions failed, and there followed three attempts on his life. The first one was when two bullets missed him as he was getting into a cab. A second attempt was when he was poisoned at an official banquet and survived thanks to an on-the-scene doctor who quickly diagnosed his ailment and pumped out his stomach. Unfortunately, the third attempt was successful; he died of poisoning on a visit to New York City in 1936.

 

 

The two world wars represent the greatest historical anomalies of the AD Era and are explained in much greater detail in my book entitled FED-ility. Some may think that the two wars were a great thing for mankind while others may think the very opposite. But what’s important is to understand how Big Brother—he’s been around since 1773— operates, for only then will we live with less stress and fully take advantage of the benefits produced by the great market economies that were created in America, then in Europe (not quite finished), and now in China.

The Road to WWI

Up to and including Henry VIII’s reign, the financial power of Europe, including England, was the Holy Roman Empire with its head office in Rome. Once Henry threw out the Pope, England had to rely on private bankers. It was a very inadequate and sloppy system until the Amsterdam and London bankers got together in what is known as the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and created in 1689 the English Parliament followed by the Bank of England in 1694. Now that loans were guaranteed by taxes collected by a proper parliament, the bankers felt free to make loans. That’s when the Industrial Revolution really started. But the English financial system remained a parochial one.

 

Manufactured goods from England were sent all over the world and traded several times and what was brought back was worth many times the original goods. When these goods were sold in England they created a lot of wealth for the English bankers. They obviously wanted to continue that type of operation in the American Colonies, but the colonials started balking. That’s when Mayer Amschel Rothschild decided to do in America what the English and Dutch bankers had done in England. Rothschild financed the American Revolution in 1776, created the Bank of North America in 1781 and America became financially independent of the Bank of England.

 

As we have seen, the French real estate scam of 1789 made it possible for Rothschild and his five sons to buy up all the gold they could find in Europe. By 1810 Nathan Amschel Rothschild, at the ripe old age of 30, was the financial master of the world; he was in control of the monetary systems of England, America and much of Europe. He was not limited by nationalism and patriotism; he was an international banker who wanted to create market economies.

 

The American market economy would be very easy to build for the continent was empty, but the European market economy was another kettle of fish. There were all those languages and national egos, and each country had a history. That would all have to be dismantled at one point, but for now, the Holy Roman Empire or the Catholic Church had to be destroyed as a financial power.

 

Although France, the pillar of that empire, was destroyed in 1789 along with the Austro-Hungarian Empire, after Napoleon, the Catholic Royalists, especially the ones in France who had lost all their property in the grand daddy of real estate scams, wanted their stuff back and still had a lot of fight in them. It took three more revolutions to beat the stuffing out of them, but in 1875, they threw in the towel. Europe was now in the hands of the bankers. The latter could now start thinking about bulldozing the whole lot, hence WWI.

Napoleon, Russia and Gold

In 1803, gold was discovered in the Urals, in Russia. It was well known that the Tsar wanted to keep it a secret, for he didn’t want the serf population to start a gold rush. However, in 1812, Rothschild and his five boys already possessed most of the gold bullion available in Europe, and Nathan was setting the world price for gold bullion out of the City in London. Is it a stretch to think the latter knew there was gold in the Urals? Is it possible that Nathan got Napoleon to stake out a claim to the region? Could Tsar Alexander have known that Napoleon’s campaign was about gold and that the Rothschilds were financing it? Could that be one of the reasons why there was so much anti-Semitism in Tsarist Russia?

We know that the Rothschilds financed all parties during the Napoleonic Wars, and that included Wellington and Napoleon. We know Napoleon started the Russian campaign in June, 1812, and that he was heading into a Russian winter, which made absolutely no sense. We know he had no valid reason for going to Moscow, and after conquering it, we know the city had been burned and stripped of supplies and was a deadly place to be. Knowing that he could easily have gone on to Saint Petersburg to defeat the Tsar and winter his troops in that city, why did he twirl his thumbs in Moscow for a whole five weeks? And where did the 22,000 troops he sent on a secret mission go? We can only assume the plan was not to defeat Russia. If Napoleon waited in Moscow, it had to be for a very good reason and since it wasn’t for military gain, it had to be for gold. If Napoleon waited five weeks with his supplies practically exhausted, it’s because he was waiting for an answer from the Tsar, to whom he had issued some kind of ultimatum. Most likely, after receiving assurances from Tsar Alexander regarding the Urals gold fields, Napoleon decided to spare Saint Petersburg and take off as fast as he could for home. And if he took the direct way back, knowing full well the countryside was totally devastated and that winter was around the corner, it was perhaps because he was overly anxious to communicate the positive results, and in his haste to get back to civilization, he gambled that he would make it home before winter set in. As for the 22,000 men he had sent on a special mission, we can only guess where they went. They probably succeeded in staking out a claim to the gold fields and stayed on to maintain control over them, for 1812 was the year the Tsar authorized “private companies” to mine for gold in the Urals.

When trying to understand something that doesn’t make sense, it’s always advisable to follow the money trail. Militarily, the invasion of Russia didn’t make any sense, but the staking out of the Urals gold fields did.
