Pravda: Is The United States Prepared?: While Iraq Buys Back Currency Off The Streets & Retires It ~ The FED Is Smothering America In Newly Printed Funny Money!

currency money
Over the last 10/12 years, I have done a large amount of reading and research into history and world events – post 1900. With my dealings around the world in Arms, I have met many very interesting people who have shared ideas and information with me on world events both past, present and future possibilities. What I want to say now, is a culmination of many years of gleaning as much information as I can about world events and information currently being provided by friends/business colleagues around the world.

printing-money-288
It is necessary for me to paraphrase much of what I have so it may seem rather “short on detail’ , but if you wanted any more information/detail, I’d be happy to provide it.
Firstly, money has no intrinsic value; and really, neither has Gold as it is a controlled market. The American Federal Reserve {FED} have been printing monopoly money for 75 years and there is no backing to this currently – other than people’s “faith” in the dollar.
Iraq
Big Gains for Iraq Security.
BAGHDAD — The Iraqi central bank is buying back its currency at a feverish pace, forcing the value of the Iraqi dinar higher and limiting increases in consumer prices.
The bank spends $1 billion to $1.5 billion every month in oil revenue to buy Iraqi dinars on the open market, said Mudher M. Salih Kasim, senior adviser to the bank. This is the main lever for controlling consumer prices, said Kasim, who noted that the value of the dinar had risen about 20 percent against the dollar. An oil price crash, he added, would be “a disaster.”
The government is also trying to funnel money to placate Iraqis who endured the military operations in Sadr City, Mosul and Basra and cement their loyalty. Tahseen al-Sheikhly, a spokesman for the Baghdad security plan, said $100 million will go to Sadr City to upgrade economic and social conditions there in the wake of the two-month military operation, which left buildings shattered and markets destroyed. Dr. Safaa al-Deen al-Safi, who is charged with implementing development and reconstruction activities, said another $100 million will be spent on areas like health and education.
New York Times
It has been a contrived financial system based on the Petro-Dollar and a debit based economy. Karl Marx said ‘war is inherent in Capitalism”. This is because capitalism needs to expand , based on debt driven greed and waste, in order to survive.
There comes a time when this “bubble” cannot be sustained – rather like blowing a large soapy bubble; it grows and grows until a point whereby the surface tension cannot sustain it’s continued expansion.
sachs-bubbles1

Then it bursts.

The American economy is such a bubble – already America cannot ever hope to repay it’s debt. The way out of this conundrum, is to devalue the dollar – let it free fall.
Then countries like China, Japan etc who are holding huge amounts of American debt will effectively be holding useless paper money. The FED, after seizing what real value is in the country by way of foreclosing on mortgages, loans and collection of businesses etc, will simply print a new currency. Ala Germany with the Deutschmark and the new Reichsmark. Depressions are generated to redistribute wealth.

Take from the middle class and poor and give to the 10% of the wealthy.

America has been heading along this path of controlled devaluation since the middle of last year – the FED stated in December that the dollar needed to drop 33 1/3rd % .
The issue here is, a controlled devaluation is a fairytale; external forces and other markets will cause a run which cannot be anticipated or controlled. Japan is onto this and they have been printing money [like the FED has] and effectively devaluing their Yen in unison with the US Dollar. This has caused the FED to complain strongly – but there is little that they can do about it – China and Japan have already begun trading each other’s currency [So too, Russia and China] rather than using the Dollar as the unit of trade, further weakening the position of the US Dollar.
However, a collapse of the US dollar will cause major problems for the countries that are holding huge amounts of American debt – China and Japan especially as both of these counties have supported their balance sheets with US debt. Wipe of that debt and they are bankrupt! This will trigger worldwide depression as the two major industrial powerhouses of the world cannot pay for goods.
Switzerland and Germany have requested their gold be returned from Fort Knox – world markets and countries around the world are becoming very nervous. Switzerland would be regarded as one of the cagiest financial counties in the world – why now demand their gold back? The FED refused a German audit of German gold reserves being held by the FED – why??

Speaking with business partners I have in the States, they are not “alarmists or kooks’, but they are alarmed and very concerned over current events. The establishment of the Department of Homeland Security [DHS] is a major concern to many in America.

THE DHS are not trained police, they are not trained military, they are people who have been “especially vetted” as to their loyalty to the flag [government].

White House Wins Fight To Keep Killings Of Americans Secret!

Federal judge Colleen McMahon issued a 75-page ruling on Wednesday January 2, 2013 that declares that the US Justice Department does not have a legal obligation to explain the rationale behind killing Americans.
A grim Federal Security Forces (FSB) “urgent action” memorandum prepared for President Putin is warning that United States President Barack Obama has ordered at least 800 highly trained “death squad” units to disperse throughout his country.
According to this memo, Obama was emboldened to implement this murderous plan against his own citizens after this past weeks US Federal Court ruling granted his regime the right to kill, without trial or charges, any American he so chooses, and keep the reason(s) for doing so secret. Read More Here.
The DHS has recently placed an order for a further 450 million 10mm Hollow Point ammunition bringing their “stockpile” to almost a thousand million. [what's that? A Billion in Yankee talk?].
There are approximately 300 million citizens in America – the question being asked is “what does the DHS need a billion rounds of ammunition for?”.

Further, my partner asked me to provide them with Meals Ready to Eat [MRE - military style ration]. When I asked him why they haven’t got any in the US – his answer was that the DHS has been buying them up.
Again, people are asking “why does the DHS need MRE, and in such high numbers?”.

The answer put forward to these questions is quite logical. With a depression of the scale that is planned, the government cannot rely on the loyalty of the Police, after all, they will have their Super schemes wiped out, their saving gone and their families will be in the same boat as the rest of the middle class.
Soldier Coffins
Hardly conducive to loyalty! The Army will fair no better – perhaps worse as many who have been recently fighting a war on behalf of the FED [controlled government], will see the stupidity and pointlessness of their sacrifices.
The Con game Of The Banking Matrix.
The Con game Of The Banking Matrix.
Because of that, it is important that the US return it’s troops from Afghanistan and reduce the size of it’s standing army so that there is less of a threat from an organised armed group. That leaves the trusty and loyal DHS to protect what the “haves” have and keep the have not from getting it. A frightening scenario.
With money being worthless, there is no point whatsoever in having a bank account – in fact, the more money you have in the bank, the better the governments will like you. So easy to reduce wealth with a stroke of the pen and a closing of the banks doors.
The only hedge against the possible coming gloom is to store tradable. Food [long term storage food] and commodities that people need are what current money should be invested in. This ‘investment” is better than money in the bank. Consider the rate of inflation and check out the rate of inflation of food! It will not get cheaper and will hold it’s value. What was $1 in current currency will be worth say $50 in any new currency. It will still be worth more than paper value and it is a necessity! Other things that can be stored and traded are certainly worth considering and investing in – especially medicines which will become very hard to procure.
Now, if the worst does not come to pass – what’s the problem?
The items stored are not spoilt and can be used progressively in lieu of spending money for them later. It is in effect a form of compulsory saving and a hedge against inflation – you will earn more than leaving the money in the bank. Consider also, that shares are a very risky investment in the current market – companies go tits up just like everyone else. Holding shares in a bankrupt company doesn’t sound like a great deal.
Personally, I think that the planned time frame for this devaluation is the demobbing of the large standing army [returned troops from Afghanistan], but with current world unrest, events may precipitate a collapse quicker than the FED are planning it.
My free and honest advice is, prepare for a depression and if it doesn’t come, you haven’t lost anything – rather you have made a wise investment.

Please share this video with your family, friends, and co-workers. Most of all, share with people who are anti-gun.
Please explain to them that losing the 2nd Amendment is not just about guns, but that it will open the door to the future restrictions of the Rights of ALL Americans.
Tell them to imagine what it would be like to lose the Right to Free Speech, or the Freedom of Religion. Explain to them that history has proven many many times that once a government starts restricting the Rights of their people, it quickly becomes easier to do so, and impossible to stop once it has started. Show them unbiased research.

Also explain to them that by restricting Law Abiding citizens from owning firearms, their safety will be placed further into jeopardy by even bolder criminal acts. Let them know that even though they themselves may not choose to own or carry a firearm, by the fact that other law abiding people do choose to arm themselves, it does actually make them safer. Criminals who commit their crimes now, do so with the full knowledge that there is a strong possibility they will run into a gun owner. And criminals choose their victims based on this knowledge. They try to choose victims who are unlikely be armed. But once criminals know the public is disarmed, they will be able to commit even more violent crimes with NO FEAR that a victim might have the ability to fight back.

All Wars Are Bankers’ Wars

New post on 2012: What's the 'real' truth?



All Wars Are Bankers’ Wars

Not All Thieves are Stupid, which begs the question; ARE YOU ???


Not All Thieves are Stupid, which begs the question;  ARE YOU ???


A very interesting article.  The electronic age has produced electron 
criminals.


NOW HEAR THIS...NOT ALL THIEVES ARE STUPID!!

1.  A friend of a friend left their car in the long-term parking at
San Jose while away, and someone broke into the car. Using the
information on the car's registration in the glove compartment, they
drove the car to the people's home in Pebble Beach and robbed it. So I
guess if we are going to leave the car in long-term parking, we should
not leave the registration/insurance cards in it, nor your remote
garage door opener.
This gives us something to think about with all our new electronic 
technology.

2.  GPS.
A couple of weeks ago a friend told me that someone she  knew had
their car broken into while they were at a football game.  Their car
was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and
specially allotted to football fans.  Things stolen from the car
included a garage door remote control, some money and a GPS which had
been prominently mounted on the dashboard.  When the victims got home,
they found that their house had been ransacked and just about
everything worth anything had been stolen.  The thieves had used the
GPS to guide them to the house.  They then used the garage remote
control to open the garage door and gain entry to the house.  The
thieves knew the owners were at the football game, they knew what time
the game was scheduled to finish and so they knew how much time they
had to clean out the house.  It would appear that they had brought a
truck to empty the house of its contents.

Something to consider if you have a GPS - don't put your home address
in it... Put a nearby address (like a store or gas station) so you can
still find your way home if you need to, but no one else would know
where you live if your GPS were stolen.

3.  MOBILE PHONES

I never thought of this.......

This lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on her
mobile phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which
contained her cell phone, credit card, wallet, etc., was stolen.  20
minutes later when she called her hubby, from a pay phone telling him
what had happened, hubby says 'I received your text asking about our
Pin number and I've replied a little while ago.'  When they rushed
down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already
withdrawn.  The thief had actually used the stolen cell phone to text
'hubby' in the contact list and got hold of the pin number.  Within 20
minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account.

Moral of the lesson:

    a.  Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in
your contact list.  Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby,
Sweetheart, Dad, Mom, etc....

    b.  And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked
through texts, CONFIRM by calling back.

    c.  Also, when you're being texted by friends or family to meet
them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came
from them.  If you don't reach them, be very careful about going
places to meet 'family and friends' who text you.

*PLEASE PASS THIS ON

* I never thought about the above!

As of now, I no longer have 'home' listed on my cell phone.

Even if this does not pertain to you....Pass it on to your family 
and friends.

Barack Obama (AFP Photo / Brendan Smialowski)
United States President Barack Obama has no plans to show Congress the legal rulings that justify his use of drones to kill US citizens, despite urging from members of his own political party.
Both members of the House and Senate have demanded as of late that the Obama administration explain more about the president’s ability to execute Americans suspected of terrorist activity without ever taking them to trial. Members of his own party have continuously pressed President Obama to disclose more information on his targeted kill program to no avail, but even as questions intensify and answers continue to be unknown, the president is reportedly dismissing pleas largely coming from the left and is preparing to side with Republicans — political foes who are much less concerned about his drone program than last year’s terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya.
In lieu of opening up about the justification for killing his own citizens, Pres. Obama will reportedly instead offer up instead intelligence about last September’s incident in Libya that left four Americans dead, including US Ambassador Chris Stevens. The event has become a point of contention on both sides of the aisle, and ongoing disputes over the mishandling of the assault and an alleged cover-up in the days and weeks after have driven a rift in Washington. Now with some lawmakers threatening to halt cabinet nominations recently made by the president in protest, Mr. Obama will reportedly offer Congress information about the Benghazi attack and not his drone program.
According to the New York Times, Obama administration officials are in talks with members of the Republican Party that are expected to end with the White House opening up about Benghazi. In making that decision, though, the paper reports that the commander-in-chief will ignore pleas from his own political party to discuss his overseas drone program, his ability to wage extrajudicial killings on US citizens and his secretive kill list.
By siding with right-wing opponents, Pres. Obama may finally succeed in having hand-picked choice John O. Brennan confirmed for a role as director of the CIA after having his nomination held up on Capitol Hill be lawmakers wanting to learn more about Benghazi. In the process, though, the president could be alienating Democrats and once more going back on a promise to bring drone discussion to the forefront of politics.
“I recognize that in our democracy, no one should just take my word that we’re doing things the right way,” the president said during his State of the Union address this month. “So, in the months ahead, I will continue to engage with Congress to ensure not only that our targeting, detention and prosecution of terrorists remains consistent with our laws and system of checks and balances, but that our efforts are even more transparent to the American people and to the world.”
As the president bides his time, however, less is being revealed about an increasingly deadly program. Earlier this week, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) claimed that America’s drone program has caused around 4,700 deaths internationally. At least two US citizens — including a teenage boy — have been killed in American-led drone strikes overseas.
Earlier this week, Sen. John McCain (R-Arizona) told CBS television program Meet the Press that information about Benghazi has not been forthcoming and he personally has many questions he wants answered by the White House.
“We’ve had two movies about getting bin Laden and we don’t even know who the people were who were evacuated from the consulate the day after the attack. So there are many, many questions. And we’ve had a massive cover-up on the part of the administration,” he said.

Recently Released Protocol Shows Ariel Sharon Feared Exposure of Israeli Genocide Against Palesinians


Recently Released Protocol Shows Ariel Sharon Feared Exposure of Israeli Genocide Against Palesinians

Posted on by Jean

Ariel Sharon meets with rabbi Ovadia.

by Bob Johnson
Source: Veterans Today 

The Israeli State Archives has just released the protocol of a cabinet meeting from 1983 in which bloated Israeli war pig Ariel Sharon shows his fear of the exposure of Israel’s coordination with a Christian Lebanese militia to commit genocide against the Palestinian people in the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps.
The Kahan Commission had reached the conclusion that Israel and in particular Sharon were responsible for the mass slaughter of the defenseless Palestinian children, women and elderly men in the camps. The truth of the genocide charges is not addressed by Sharon or any of his fellow war criminals. Instead the focus is on the negative consequences these charges could bring to Sharon, the Israeli Defense Minister at the time, to Israeli Prime Minister and former Jewish Irgun terrorist Minister Begin, as well as to the rest of the Israeli war mongers in the Israeli cabinet who were at the meeting.
A damning finding (PDF) by the Kahan Commission and which was in their final report was, “We have found, as has been detailed in this report, that the Minister of Defense (Ariel Sharon) bears personal responsibility [for the massacres}. In our opinion, it is fitting that the Minister of Defense draw the appropriate personal conclusions arising out of the defects revealed with regard to the manner in which he discharged the duties of his office-and if necessary, that the Prime Minister consider whether he should exercise his authority under Section 21A( a) of the Basic Law: the Government, according to which 'the Prime Minister may, after informing the Cabinet of his intention to do so, remove a minister from office.'"
The fact that the commission only called for Sharon's removal from his position of Israeli Defense Minister instead of his public trial as a genocidal war criminal is in all probability due to the fact that the Kahan Commission was operating through the Israeli government.
One of the findings in the report was that the Israeli government had "ignored" the real risks of genocide. The protocols reveal Sharon told Begin and the cabinet, "This goes well beyond the personal issue on everyone’s mind, of whether I stay or go. The report’s words ‘ignored’ imply that this was done knowingly. That includes all of us sitting around this table who appeared before the commission, including you, Prime Minister [Menachem Begin]. The commission has specifically said that not only was there a risk of a massacre, but that all of us knew this yet ignored it.”
Sharon continued warning the gathering of genocidal Israeli war criminals, “People wishing us ill, and I’ve already heard this, will say that what occurred in those camps was genocide. I’ve heard this from Rashad al-Shawa, the former mayor of Gaza. He stated that such claims are appropriate, linking the massacres to genocide.”
After reading the 1950 statute against genocide to his cohorts Sharon all but admitted his and their part in the shameful, cowardly and repulsive massacre of Palestinian innocents at Shatila and Sabra refugee camps when he said, “We all urged this, we all enabled it, by asking them (the Phalangist Christian militias) to enter the camps. We were present, we lit up the area and we evacuated casualties. It is common knowledge that we were in the area to keep the opposition away, and we did not isolate it from other areas. We kept forces in the area to ensure the mission was carried out, and in case they ran into trouble and needed help getting out.”
Back in 1983 the media in the US should have broadcast this around the country and around the globe. Americans should have taken to the streets to demand the political whores in Washington stop all hand-outs and support of the Jewish terrorist state of Israel. Instead, nothing happened. By our silence and continued status quo support of Israel Americans endorsed and continue to endorse the genocide of the Palestinian children, women and elderly men.
We continue our support of Israel today even though Israel is holding thousands of Palestinian people without charge such as Sammer Issawi. He is on a hunger strike and may soon die. (Click here for his Facebook page.)
We continue to support Israel’s illegal occupation of Jerusalem as the recent visit by US Senator Marco Rubio makes very clear. Rubio told Israeli President Peres regarding Jerusalem, “of course (Jerusalem) is the capital of your country.” Obama will visit Jerusalem and will receive an Israeli medal in appreciation for Obama’s “unique and significant contribution to strengthening the State of Israel and the security of its citizens.” Too bad Obama and the other US politicians don’t do that for America and the American people!
Genocide and Israel go hand in hand. Israel is not a democracy but is instead a theocracy based on Judaism and the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament. This is evident by the fact that Israel does not even have a constitution because of the religious belief that man-made laws such as a constitution cannot take precedence over God’s law which Israel sees as the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament. (It’s interesting and revealing that the war-mongering neoconservative movement is based on the Hebrew Bible/OT.)
Being based on the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Israel is free to follow the bloody genocidal examples of Bible characters such as Moses. Numbers 31:17-18 informs us that Moses ordered the Israelite army to “kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves” in regards to a recently conquered people. (This has Sabra and Shatila written all over it.)
The American founder and Deist Thomas Paineopenly and bravely wrote about the ungodly contents of the Bible in his powerful landmark book on God, Deism and religion, The Age of Reason, The Complete Edition (for Kindle version click here). Regarding the genocide in Numbers 31:17-18 Paine asks us to put ourselves in the place of the victims of Moses and Israel. He wrote, “Let any mother put herself in the situation of those mothers; one child murdered, another destined to violation, and herself in the hands of an executioner; let any daughter put herself in the situation of those daughters, destined as a prey to the murderers of a mother and a brother, and what will be their feelings? It is in vain that we attempt to impose upon nature, for nature will have her course, and the religion that tortures all her social ties is a false religion.”
A powerful statement of Thomas Paine’s found in The Age of Reason, The Complete Edition seems to reflect the reality of Sabra and Shatila as well as the Israeli cabinet meeting the recently released protocols reveal. Paine wrote, “The Jews made no converts; they butchered all.”
