Mon, 11 Apr 2022 21:41:14 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.16 Neo-con politicians take major hits in Eastern Europe https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2015/06/19/neo-con-politicians-take-major-hits-eastern-europe/ Thu, 18 Jun 2015 20:00:01 +0000 https://strategic-culture.lo/news/2015/06/19/neo-con-politicians-take-major-hits-eastern-europe/ Political leaders supported by an unholy alliance of U.S. neo-conservative circles and George Soros’s pro-globalization forces have suffered a string of political defeats in Eastern Europe. Perhaps the biggest catastrophe for the neo-cons was in Poland where one of the stars of America’s interventionist foreign policy, Polish parliament speaker Radoslaw (Radek) Sikorski, announced his resignation after secret recordings emerged. The secret tapes scandal, known as «Waitergate», revealed Sikorski and several governing Civic Platform party officials discussing illegal deals involving bribery and extortion over expensive meals, rare bottles of wine, and Cuban cigars at plush restaurants in Warsaw.

Sikorski was foreign minister at the time the recordings were made. In typical fashion, the Russians are being blamed by Warsaw for bugging the restaurant tables and recording the conversations. However, the fact remains that it was the inherent corruption of the Civic Platform government that brought about the resignations of Sikorski and Health Minister Bartosz Arlukowicz, Treasury Minister Wlodzimierz Karpinski, Sports Minister Andrzej Biernat. Also resigning was Jacek Rostowski, the chief political aide to Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz, and the head of the Polish security services, Jacek Cichocki.

«Waitergate» also threatens Donald Tusk, the prime minister at the time the recordings were made in 2013. Tusk, now the President of the European Council, may now face calls for his resignation from the top job in Brussels, especially from Euro-skeptic parties in the European Parliament who have accused the European Union leadership with rampant corruption. The «Waitergate» conversations reveal a Tusk government that thrived on bribery, extortion, and embezzlement of public funds. Tusk, finding himself without much of a defense for the corruption of his former government, has accused Russia of being behind the bugging operations in Warsaw. However, Tusk, as is usual for any neocon, refuses to discuss the underlying graft and corruption by his one-time ministers.

One recording of Sikorski and then-finance minister Jacek Rostowski demonstrates Sikorski's disdain for his American benefactors: «We’ll get into a conflict with the Russians and the Germans, and we’ll think that everything is super because we gave the Americans a blow job . . . Losers. Complete losers». The vulgar comments, like those between Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs Victoria Nuland and U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt, friends of Sikorski and his Washington Post neo-con columnist wife, Anne Applebaum, threaten to drive a wedge into the anti-Russian alliance built by Washington among eastern and central European countries. Sikorski also said in the taped conversations that British Prime Minister David Cameron used «stupid propaganda» and demonstrated «incompetence in European affairs».

Sikorski is a longtime habitué of neo-con activities in the United States. As a veteran senior fellow of the neo-con citadel, the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) he was once hailed as a «visionary» by the New York Sun, a noted neo-con outlet started by disgraced ex-convict Conrad Black, and which ended its print edition in 2008 amid financial ruin. At AEI, Sikorski worked alongside such ignominious neo-cons as Michael Ledeen and Richard Perle. It is believed by many that Sikorski, who became a British citizen in 1984, also worked as a U.S. intelligence asset during the Ronald Reagan Cold War years and after. Sikorski was a roving correspondent for the neo-con National Review from 1988 to 1998 and he worked as Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation representative in Warsaw from 1989 to 1992. While at AEI from 2002 to 2005, Sikorski also served as director of the New Atlantic Initiative, a neo-con contrivance that counted among its adherents Kateryna Chumachenko-Yushchenko and her husband, Viktor Yushchenko, the 2004 «Orange Revolution» – installed president of Ukraine.

In Moldova, a scandal involving the disappearance of over $1.5 billion from the country’s three largest banks resulted in the resignation in disgrace of Moldova’s Soros- and U.S. National Endowment for Democracy (NED)-inserted Prime Minister Chiril Gaburici. Other reasons for Gaburici’s resignation included the falsification of his high school and university diplomas.

The financial scandal was largely due to the machinations of Tel Aviv-born Moldovan-Israeli banker Ilan Shor, mayor-elect of Orhei and chairman of the board of the Saving Bank of Moldova. Shor also serves as the president of Banca de Economii, one of the three banks involved in the missing $1.5 billion. Records from Shor’s banks were removed from bank computers and placed in the trunk of a car owned by one of Shor’s companies. The car was later found burned with the only evidence of the records being the whitened ash found in the car’s trunk. The other two banks defrauded by Shor and his cronies – Unibank and Banca Sociala – were also involved in the illegal transferal of the over 10 billion lei (some $1.5 billion), which then disappeared. Shor’s fraud scheme also involved the laundering of money through Latvia’s Latvijas Pasta Banka. The ultimate goal of the fraud involved Shor’s desire to take control of the three main Moldovan banks.

Shor amassed much of his personal fortune from his ownership of duty-free shopping concessions at Chisinau International Airport. Shor’s duty-free airport business, Dufremol, was founded by his late father, Miron Shor, who used his fortune to financially support a number of Zionist and pro-Israeli causes in Moldova and other countries. Israel’s support network in Moldova and Europe began calling the charges against Shor and his Shor Group of companies an «anti-Semitic» conspiracy. Such actions are commonplace among the Soros propaganda network when either Soros, his Rothschild family accomplices, or crooks like Shor, Russian tax scofflaws Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Platon Lebedev, Ukrainian oligarch Ihor Kolomoisky, Russian-Israeli billionaire Leonid Nevzlin, or other members of the global «Kosher Nostra» are charged by the authorities with financial crimes.

Shor, who is a partner of another infamous Moldovan mafia boss, Gabi Stati, was placed under arrest by Moldovan authorities for the disappearance of the money, which amounts to one-eighth of Moldova’s gross domestic product. Shor’s swindling of the 1.5 billion dollars also involved two other Moldovan banks. The massive Moldovan fraud scheme resulted in local elections seeing gains for the pro-Russian communists with the mayor’s race in Chisinau heading for a run-off between the pro-European Union incumbent Dorin Chirtoaca and pro-Russian challenger Zinaida Greceanii. Pro-Russian businessman Renato Usatii cruised to an outright victory in Moldova’s second largest city of Balti.

Shor and Stati are as emblematic of «sticky fingers» corruption by the Soros-financed Western-oriented parties in Moldova as Kolomoisky, Arseniy Yatsenyuk, and Petro Poroshenko are in Ukraine. In fact, in 2009, Stati was arrested by Ukrainian authorities in Odessa, Ukraine after then-Moldovan president Vladimir Voronin accused Stati of organizing a coup d’état in Moldova. The fingerprints of Soros and the Central Intelligence Agency’s NED were all over the coup plot in Moldova.

The Moldovan and Polish financial scandals have brought the disinfectant of sunshine upon the Soros-connected and neo-con heralded underworlds that run the day-to-day affairs of Moldova and Poland. When one peels back the onion in these countries, as well as in Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and the Baltic states, the same network of vipers, vampires, and vultures are discovered preying on legitimate businesses, the taxpayers, and the general commonwealth. 

The Soros-controlled media outlets, including Radio Free Europe/Liberty and others, are doing their very best to spin the fraudulent nature of the pro-Western governments of eastern and central Europe. However, the truth is shining through their attempts to distort and confabulate the truth.

London Gold Fix Closed – Sign of Drastic Changes the World Financial System Is To Go Through https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2015/03/23/london-gold-fix-closed-sign-drastic-changes-world-financial-system-through/ Mon, 23 Mar 2015 05:04:26 +0000 https://strategic-culture.lo/news/2015/03/23/london-gold-fix-closed-sign-drastic-changes-world-financial-system-through/ The closer of London Gold Fix (LGF) on March 20 is big news. The first London gold fixing was performed in 1919; it had a short way to go till its anniversary. The system of its functioning was simple enough. A number of leading participants started a fixing process to reach a balance between supply and demand to set the price. The gold fixing provided a recognized rate that was used as a benchmark for pricing the majority of gold products and derivatives throughout the world's markets. There were five participating banks and market makers that made up London Bullion Market Association – LBMA. London Gold Market Fixing Ltd. exercised the administrative control. 

For many years LGF was perceived to be an ideal instrument for fixing the gold price on the world market, especially for individual contracts and derivatives (paper gold). The rates were used for evaluating monetary gold reserves and liabilities pegged to the precious metal (for instance, bank deposits denominated in gold). The drawbacks of the system were hushed up, no matter more and more questions were being raised, especially during the recent 10-20 years. 

The Bretton Woods system disappeared in the 1970s. Gold stopped being a monetary metal to become a normal commodity. It would have been logical to trade gold with its price fixed as if it were an ordinary operation at commodity exchange. In recent years LGF looked like an anachronism, an old fashioned structure to add to or, to some extent, substitute ordinary markets trading non-ferrous and precious metals. 

The most perspicacious experts noticed that LGF was an ideal instrument for the Rothschilds  to control the gold market. As is known, the gold standard was created by Rothschilds  in the XIX century. After Napoleonic wars the family got hold of major part of European gold, so the gold standard made it fabulously rich guaranteeing stable demand for the precious metal. The Rothschilds  did not sell it to central banks or treasuries of other countries. Instead they granted gold credits. The First World War put an end to the functioning of gold standard mechanisms. The Rothschilds  wasted no time to react. In 1919 they created LGF to control the world gold market through London gold fixing. 

The Rothschilds -controlled N M Rothschild & Sons was the leading bank of the five. It was founded at the beginning of XIX century by Nathan Rothschild. Other members of «golden five» were related to the Rothschilds  by invisible ties. It can be said that LGF was the Rothschilds ’ creature. In 2003 N M Rothschild left gold fixing but it did not mean the family left the business. It controlled LGF behind the scenes. By that time there were many frauds and manipulations affecting the functioning of the market; the situation could have gone out of control. There was a risk of world-wide scandal. To avoid involvement the «financial geniuses» the Rothschilds  decided to go into the shadows. There were a lot of interesting things happening in the world of gold trading. The Rothschilds -controlled media did it best to hush it all up. For instance, the information on tungsten operations hit the pages only ten years after the fact was discovered. 

The elimination of LGF is part of big game played by the «money bosses» – the Rothschilds  and Rockefellers (the both are the leading shareholders of US Federal Reserve System). Gold is what the Rothschilds  are after, while the Rockefellers rely on the dollar – the world currency the Federal Reserve System issues. The correlation of forces (between the Rothschilds  sand the Rockefellers who are partners and competitors at the same time) is defined by the balance between the dollar and gold. It’s a well-known fact that since some time ago the gold has been greatly underestimated. The price has never returned to the peak reached in 1980 ($850 per troy). This is a comparable price. The nominal price has gone up exceeding $1000 since a long time ago. At first glance, one should come to conclusion that the Rockefellers won the battle and weakened the position of the Rothschilds . But there is a great possibility that this is just a trick on the part of Rothschilds  trying to turn the temporary retreat into a strategic win to defeat the Rockefellers. 

There are many indirect signs that the Rothschilds  played the game of lowering the gold price to automatically strengthen the dollar. It’s not financial masochism. The recent twenty years the Rothschilds  used different shady and criminal schemes to buy out the precious metal, so, naturally, they needed the lowest price possible. London gold fixing functioned to carry out this task. They got gold from everywhere they could. Central banks and treasuries were the main sources, especially the United States Treasury. According to official data, there are 8100 tons of gold stored in Fort Knox. The storage has not been audited for sixty years now. According to my estimates, the probability of finding eight thousand tons (the figure offered by the US Federal Reserve System and the Department of Treasury) of gold there is much less than 1%. Former congressman Ron Paul, who is very critical of US financial authorities, believes that the probability is even lower. 

There are many more examples of gold manipulations with the participation of Federal Reserve System, the US Department of Treasury, the Bank of England, the LGF «golden five», many banks of Wall Street and London City etc. At the beginning of the 2010s, there was enough discrediting evidence to make financial bodies of the United States, Great Britain and the European Union react somehow. After the end of the first wave of financial crisis the «untouchable» banks of Wall Street, London City and continental Europe came under investigation to trace manipulations. There were loud scandals, for instance the Libor scandal. There was a series of fraudulent actions connected to the Libor (London Interbank Offered Rate) and also the resulting investigation and reaction. The Libor is an average interest rate calculated through submissions of interest rates by major banks in London. The scandal arose when it was discovered that banks were falsely inflating or deflating their rates so as to profit from trades, or to give the impression that they were more creditworthy than they were. The courts handed down sentences severe enough and the banks had to pay billions in fines and compensations. The investigations of possible fraudulent actions were postponed for a long time (the gold market is a sacred place in the world financial system) but finally the time came to examine the operations of LGF. 

Last year it became evident that the fat was in the fire. The nerve of a bank making up the «golden five» failed it. Deutsche Bank tried to sell its place in LGF but no one wanted to buy it. In August 2014 the bank left LGF in fear. Now they were four instead of five with Scotia Mocatta, HSBC, Societe Generale, Barclays Capital left. Before that another financial regulator – the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) – had launched an investigation against Barclays Capital. The British authorities tried to hush the scandal up with the help of a ridiculously small sum of around 30 billion euros Barclays was made pay as a fine. The financial bodies of Switzerland and Germany launched inquiries of their own. Besides the LGF participating banks, they also investigated the activities of other big actors on the market of precious metals (gold, silver, platinum). Those actors had close ties to LGF banks and central banks of some countries, including Bank for International Settlements (BIS). The information is explosive. To my mind, it prompted the closure of gold fixing. 

Somehow, the fraudulent schemes practiced by the «big five» (to later become «big four) are often called «manipulations with gold prices». True, the manipulations did take place. For instance, they regulated supply and demand for precious metals. The 2012-2014 investigation of fraudulent schemes practiced in relation to currency rates shows that the regulation of supply and demand did take place. Then why not spread this experience on gold? But the price manipulation was not the main wrongdoing. The major fraud was establishing monopoly on insider information related to prices. The process of prices fixing could last for a few minutes to a few hours. Getting the information of the price just a few seconds before its official announcement enabled to make a huge profit, especially in view of the fact that many speculators like to work with ‘paper gold» (its turnover exceed many times the turnover of physical gold). There is a great probability the Rothschilds  themselves made money by selling the insider information to the bodies under their control. 

It’s hard to predict the further situation creep on the world gold market. The available information shows that the new system of price fixing looks like the most transparent auction with great number of participants. They say Chinese banks and companies will become the leading actors of «gold fixing with broad participation». If so, the gold price will rapidly climb. This process could be regulated by preventing sky high hikes. 

Many things about LGF activities are still not known. One can only guess. One of the guesses says the gold has already gone to the Rothschilds ’ storage. They don’t need the mechanism of lowering prices anymore. The Rothschilds  were the main driving force behind the LGF closure. There is some logic here – the sooner the bucket shop called LGF is closed, the less chances investigators have to get to the bottom of fraudulent schemes practiced by «financial geniuses».

There is another version. Not all the money has been transferred and the risk of leak revealing dirty tricks practiced on gold market has grown. The LGF closure was an emergency action to destroy the traces. 

The third guess. The closure could be a result of bickering between the Rothschilds  and the Rockefellers. The Rockefellers decided to strike at the soft underbelly of the Rothschilds  – LGF. It was known as early as the beginning of 2015 that LGF was to stop functioning. The issue could have been gradually soft-pedalled but, all of a sudden, the US Department of Treasury launched a large-scale investigation related to the possible precious metals market machinations. At least ten banks were suspected: Barclays, JPMorgan Chase, Deutsche Bank, HSBC, Credit Suisse, UBS, Goldman Sachs, Societe Generale, Canadian Nova Scotia и South African Standard Bank. Three banks from the list are under strong influence of the Rothschilds, especially Chase. In any case the closure of London gold fixing is a sign of great changes the world financial system is to undergo.

Ukraine and the Rothschild Family https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2015/03/17/ukraine-and-rothschild-family/ Mon, 16 Mar 2015 20:00:03 +0000 https://strategic-culture.lo/news/2015/03/17/ukraine-and-rothschild-family/ A group of large international investors buy out Ukrainian government’s securities. Franklin Templton is one of them. The investment group snapped up Ukrainian international debt with a face value of almost $5 billion at the end of August, nearly a fifth of the country's outstanding international government bonds. 

Franklin Templton has all the makings of a «financial vulture». Until now the sum paid by it for 20% of Ukraine’s national debt remains to be a commercial secret. The vultures purchase the securities with low, almost junk, ratings at low prices to demand full payment from issuer afterwards. Argentina is a good example of vultures’ destructive activities. The country made a deal on restructuring with 95-97% of debt holders but the rest happened to be in the hands of financial vultures that spoiled it all by demanding full payment. The vultures (two US investment funds) started court proceedings to make Argentina default. The country may be mercilessly pillaged in case it complies with the ultimatums of vultures and the ruling of US court. 

The story is a warning to Ukraine which has sold its securities to Franklin Templton. According to a recent Bloomberg report, the investment fund acts under US jurisdiction and is controlled by Rothschilds, the family known for its death grip. 

Last year I wrote in my article The Financial Situation of Kiev Regime and Prospects for Ukraine’s Default that Ukraine may face the very same default that «will never come» according the assurances provided by Ukraine’s Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk. Some may lose billions, some may acquire unprecedented wealth. As the global experience shows, defaults are seldom impromptu. Normally they are planned. Sometimes the preparations may last for a few years. Ukraine is not an exclusion. It will default on its debts. The time will be defined by sponsors and modest beneficiaries of such organizations as Franklin Thompson. At the moment of writing the article I did not know their names. Now they have come into the open. It’s a sign that the drama is nearing its denouement. 

The Rothschilds family has come up with an initiative to create a group of Ukrainian bonds holders to shape a common policy on debt settlement. Rothschild & Cie Banque, a French bank belonging to Rothschild Group, offered its service in the capacity of «go-between» in the talks of Ukraine’s Ministry of Finances and creditors on restructuring the debt. Now creditors are waiting for Kiev to put forward the proposals in mid-March, according to Giovanni Salvetti, Co-head of Russia and CIS at Rothschild Inc., who handles central and Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States. Salvetti said there were two opinions among creditors about setting up the committee: those who want to wait and see what the government will say and those who want to set «some hard lines for the potential restructuring, like saying we’re looking for a proposal but be aware that we are not ready to accept X, Y, Z.» 

The Bloomberg’s information is not detailed but it allows to make the following conclusions: first, the default of Ukraine is inevitable and the credit holders are aware of this fact, second, the default will be accompanied by restructuring on tough terms unfavorable for Ukraine. 

One detail strikes an eye – the leak on the coming default and debt restructuring coincided with the announcement made by the International Monetary Fund that on March 11 it signed off on an USD17.5 billion loan for cash-strapped Ukraine to keep its economy afloat. The IMF loan is spread over four years within the framework of stabilization program. The coincidence may be interpreted in different ways. 

Version one. There is no coordination between the International Monetary Fund and the Rothschild group; they vie for the control over the Ukraine’s economy. 

Version two. It’s not a «genuine» decision» of the International Monetary Fund but rather a PR-action taken to prevent the further falling of Ukraine’s investment and credit rating. 

Version three. The decision is «genuine». Ukraine will get the money but not for some ephemeral «program of economic stabilization». The purpose is to guarantee that Franklin Templeton and other financial marauders acting under the disguise of respectable «investment funds» get full payment on Ukraine’s securities. If so, the Rothschilds and the International Monetary Fund do effectively coordinate their activities. 

The security holders are confident in inevitability of Ukraine’s default. In this case the country will be ruled by duumvirate of US government and world financial oligarchy on the basis of the agreement on debt restructuring to be signed in Kiev with the Rotshields. 

It can be presumed, that the agreement will confirm the consent of Ukraine’s government on complete privatization of the country, including the rest of state industrial property, land and natural resources. Franklin Templton and other structures belonging to the Rotshields will gain. 

Andrey Fursov, a Russian sociologist, historian and writer and publicist (author of several books on modern history), believes that the Rotshields are invisibly present in all Ukraine’s regions, including the eastern part of the country, and sectors of economy. The prime mission is to establish its control over the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast (province) of central Ukraine where Rotshields Europe Bank and Rotshields-controlled Royal Dutch Shell already operate. It can be called a Rotshields legal intelligence gathering station. Experts believe that that the illegal representation is much more effective to include many Rotshields-controlled individuals and companies. Actually the implementation of the program of Ukraine’s sovereign debt restructuring will be based on the data received from Rotshields legal and illegal spy stations in Ukraine. 

It’s all not that easy. The Rockefellers have a foothold in the west of Ukraine, the country where they pursue their own goals too. The both groups try to divide the spheres of interests but they cannot do it without bickering. For instance, many experts believe that tycoon Dmitry Firtash is the chief representative of Rotshields in Ukraine. His removal from the scene is attributed to the Rockefellers who effectively use the administrative potential of Washington in Kiev. The emerging duumvirate in Ukraine and the coming default make the situation in Ukraine less predictable.

Behind-the-scenes games with gold: in anticipation of the great turn (II) https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2013/06/07/behind-scenes-games-with-gold-anticipation-great-turn-ii/ Thu, 06 Jun 2013 20:00:03 +0000 https://strategic-culture.lo/news/2013/06/07/behind-scenes-games-with-gold-anticipation-great-turn-ii/ Part I

Private gold in private vaults: a black hole

Private monetary gold may not only be placed in funds like SPDR Gold, but also in the form of metal deposits in commercial banks or simply stored in the vaults of specialist banks like the Rothschilds’ HSBC. The world’s media are reporting that in connection with the growing demand for gold storage services, major banks have started to build additional vaults or expand their existing ones. So in 2010, the Wall Street Journal reported that the bank JP Morgan had reopened its underground gold vault in New York, which had been abandoned in the 1990s. As well as JP Morgan’s vaults, Manhattan is also currently home to the vaults of European banks HSBC and the Bank of Nova Scotia. Furthermore, the non-bank storage of precious metals is also gaining more and more significance. 

Gold placement services are also being actively offered by Swiss banks, especially the banks UBS and Credit Suisse. While these services used to involve the placement of metal in deposit accounts, nowadays they predominantly involve accepting gold for storage. Swiss banks have been motivated to make such a change by the desire to avoid including accepted gold on their balance sheets. When placing gold on deposit, they need to make deductions to their reserve funds, which in turn reduces the profitability of their banking operations. However, we believe that the main motive for such a U-turn by the banks is the desire to protect themselves and their clients from possible interference on the part of the regulatory authorities. There have been quite a few scandals involving Swiss banks in recent years, linked with the fact that they are keeping the funds of various «dictators» and politically-dubious individuals on deposit. A regular gold storage service removes many of the problems which can arise during bank inspections. 

In Switzerland, there is a large storage facility for valuables in Olten. It is managed by the company SIX Securities Services, which is a subsidiary of the SIX Group. There are some who believe that this storage facility is the biggest in continental Europe, with nearly 800 tonnes of precious metals being stored there. The storage facility is sometimes called a «Swiss Fort Knox». 

We can also add that in certain countries, gold owners take advantage of banks’ trust services, where the banks act as nominal owners and perform various operations with gold in their name. The real beneficiaries, meanwhile, are protected by bank secrecy. Logic suggests that the real beneficiaries are primarily those who organised the looting of central banks’ vaults. 

 The Rothschilds: the route to the gold standard

Remember what global moneylenders were doing in the name of the Rothschilds with their own gold two centuries ago. At that time, the Rothschilds had managed to accumulate immeasurable (for those times) reserves of gold during the Napoleonic Wars. It was necessary to make this gold «work»; to make it into capital, in other words, so that it would generate a profit for its owners. The Rothschilds discovered an incredibly simple and effective way – by imposing the gold standard on society. The gold standard is a way of organising the circulation of money, whereby gold is declared to be money, and paper money acts as symbols of and substitutes for gold. With the gold standard, paper money guarantees (covers) a specific amount of gold (a fixed percentage of coverage) and is exchanged without any limitations for precious metal. In order to support the needs of the economy in money, the central banks always had to have enough gold. A lack of precious metal could be compensated for with gold offered to central banks on credit. Who was able to give such gold credits? Those same Rothschilds who, without putting in any effort at all, were able to increase their own gold fortune through returned loans – not just the principal of the loan but interest as well. With the gold standard being backed by gold loans, all of the world’s gold was gradually concentrated in the hands of those who had had the most gold at the very beginning. And that was the Rothschilds. Great Britain turned out to be the easiest country to get hooked on the gold standard. After the Napoleonic Wars, the Bank of England was placed under the control of Nathan Rothschild – one of the five sons of Rothschild dynasty founder, Mayer Amschel Rothschild. Then during the course of the 19th century, Germany, France, Belgium, Italy, Russia, the US and many other countries joined the gold standard one after the other. With breaks for the First and Second World Wars, the gold standard survived to the 1970s. Initially it was the «classic», or gold coin, standard. After the First World War it turned into the gold bullion standard (paper money was only exchanged for standard gold bars) and the gold exchange standard (guaranteeing the exchange of national currencies for currencies which, in turn, could be converted into gold). Following the Second World War, the gold dollar standard existed up to 1971, whereby the US Treasury exchanged dollars for gold. 

The Rothschilds would probably like to once again play the same game they played in the 19th century, a game known as the «gold standard» and which poses no risk to them. It would be impossible to introduce it to every country simultaneously. If the process began successfully in Great Britain two centuries ago, today it seems like China is being regarded as the «pioneer». In every way possible, the Rothschilds are stirring up the Celestial Empire’s gold ambitions, pushing the country to accumulate considerable gold reserves and suggesting that the yuan should be an international currency, but that is only possible if it becomes gold… Obviously, amid the international currency competition, the currency that gets gold-backing will be the absolute winner. In order not to be at a disadvantage, other countries will also be forced to convert their currencies into gold. The Rothschilds know that when imposing a gold standard on the world, the first step will be the most difficult. After that, the whole world will be seized by «gold rush» fever. 

While placing their main bet on China, the Rothschilds are simultaneously planting «seeds» in various parts of the world from which gold standards may sprout over time. By «seeds», we mean statements by political and state representatives about how there is no alternative to the gold standard at present. These statements will then transform into political platforms and movements. Finally, laws will be enacted that legalise gold money. In particular, gold money «seeds» will be planted in Switzerland, where the country’s parliament is currently discussing proposals to introduce the gold franc. In the USA, in the state of Utah, a law has already been passed on gold money, while similar laws are also being discussed in a number of other states. Plans for a «gold dinar» were also ripening in the Muslim world, although due to the West’s use of armed aggression against Libya, this project (which was initiated by Gaddafi) has been aborted. 

Rothschild agents are actively campaigning around the world in favour of a gold standard. As an example, let us take the former Chairman of the Federal Reserve of the United States, Alan Greenspan. Long before Greenspan became head of the Federal Reserve, he wrote an article with the extremely significant title «Gold and Economic Freedom» (1966). In 1981, former FRS Chairman Alan Greenspan published a column in the Wall Street Journal in which he argued that the US should back their treasury bonds with gold. The US was incredibly close to returning to the gold standard following the currency crisis of 1979-1980. During his time as FRS chairman (1987-2006), Alan Greenspan stopped advertising his predilection for gold. After leaving the post, however, he resumed campaigning in favour of a return to the gold standard. 

One should also remember the sensational statement made in November 2010 by the head of the World Bank Robert Zoellick regarding the advisability of a return to the gold standard. His colleague at the time meanwhile, International Monetary Fund Director Dominic Strauss-Kahn, although not directly campaigning for the gold standard to be reinstated, still took up a sufficiently critical position regarding the existing dollar system. In other words, he was indirectly playing up to the Rothschilds. Strauss-Kahn also expressed support for Muammar Gaddafi’s endeavours to introduce the gold dinar to Muslim countries. 

The Rothschilds: a major war as a parallel scenario

Another strategic line of the Rothschilds for imposing gold money on the world is the destabilisation of international relations to the point of initiating wars, including world wars. Vladimir Pavlenko, quoted in the previous article, believes that this could happen if China backs out of the gold yuan project: «Without absolutely reliable, 100 percent guarantees in the shape of a «gold-yuan» pairing, complemented in the political sphere by a China-Japan alliance, the Rothschilds will not be able to pull down the dollar and the US – there would be an extremely high risk that the situation would get out of control and then weapons, rather than money, could become the deciding factor». 

The Rothschilds are both good at and fond of initiating wars. Although countries abandon the gold standard during tragic periods of human history, at the same time the role of gold as world money rises sharply. This is inevitable amid a fall in confidence in paper money, a rise in the instability and unpredictability of exchange rates and the fate of individual currencies. We should at the very least remember the First World War. During those years, Russia was desperately in need of weapons and ammunition and tried to get them from its allies. However, the Entente countries preferred to fulfil their allied obligations towards Russia not just in exchange for paper money (which, incidentally, they gave to Russia by way of credits), but secured with gold. Moreover, they required this gold security to be transferred from Russia to the vaults of the Bank of England on the island of Foggy Albion. 

During the Second World War, the US was also able to increase its gold reserves owing to the fact that the country demanded its allies pay for its «services in the fight against Hitler» with monetary gold. Not to mention the fact that for Hitler, gold was the only means of exchange with countries that were not under direct German occupation (in occupied territories, payments were made with the use of clearings, although Germany in fact never paid those debts back). It should also be remembered that the Rothschilds were at the source of the Second World War; they thought they would be able to orchestrate the war and hoped that all the world’s gold would eventually end up in their hands. However, history made some serious corrections to their script, to put it mildly. By 1949, the US accounted for up to 70 percent of the world’s official gold reserves (excluding the USSR and other countries in the «Eastern Bloc»). And this gold primarily strengthened the positions of the Rothschilds’ and Rockefeller’s main competitors. 

I think that the Rothschilds never gave up the most important aspect of their old scenario. Nowadays, the roles have just been assigned to new actors. One of the leading actors in this new version of the old script has to be China. And one must suppose that if the Rothschilds do not manage to convince China to introduce the gold yuan, they will focus on preparing a major war with the involvement of that same China.

Gold: Back to Money World (II) https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2013/04/27/gold-back-to-money-world-ii/ Fri, 26 Apr 2013 20:00:02 +0000 https://strategic-culture.lo/news/2013/04/27/gold-back-to-money-world-ii/ Part I

Lies about Muammar Gaddafi

The Muammar Gaddafi’s gold dinar is the best example of an attempt to make gold an instrument of payments in international trade. The Libyan leader led the efforts to maneuvering away from the dollar and the euro as the only means of international payments. He called upon the Arab-African world to switch over to a single currency – the gold dinar. According to the Colonel’s plans, the measure would constitute a basis for creating a unified state with mixed Arab-Black African population of 200 million. Many developing states supported the idea of Africa’s unification into a single federate state based on a single currency backed up by gold. It was met with repugnance by the United States and some Western nations. No matter how hard they tried to talk him out of it, Gaddafi was adamant. He continued to take new steps to create the unified Africa and introduce the gold dinar. There are two interpretations of the reasons behind the military intervention against Libya – the defense of human rights and the desire to grab the Gaddafi’s oil. Both are wrong. The real reason is the fact, that Colonel Gaddafi was brave enough to follow the example of General De Gaulle. He tried to bring into life the idea of getting away from paper money in favor of gold standard. By doing so he threatened the owners of printing press or, in other words, the major share owners of the private company under the name of the US Federal Reserve System… 

Some states adopt gold for international payments on their own. Usually it is used for smuggling or dark operations. Nepal sets an example; it gets two thirds of its imports from the neighboring India. Gold is used for payments. Partially Nepalese vendors get it from local banks (around 15 kg per day). Another source of gold is the neighboring China. It’s cheaper there in comparison to what it costs in India (4.80 rupee per compared to 5.05 in India). In this case the use of gold is explained by the desire to get profit taking advantage of the difference in golf prices. There are also other reasons for cutting off some states from world trade. Iran is the best example; the West has imposed economic sanctions against it, including the ban on export-import banking transactions freezing the country out of world financial system. As a result, the neighboring Turkey shifted to gold payments for the natural gas imported from Iran. According to the Wall Street Journal Europe, the outflow of gold, measured in billions of dollars, from Turkey is a result of gas payments for Iranian gas… The shift of both countries to gold payments for gas is a result of the sanctions imposed by the United States, which threatens to get tough towards other states using dollar payments for trade with Iran. Gold payments will allow Ankara to avoid the «punishment» from Washington. During the first nine months of 2012 the outflow of gold from Turkey reached record high $10.7 billion, Iran received gold for the sum of $6.4 billion. 

Secret war for gold, or the Rockefellers and the Rothschilds

At first glance, some world events seem to be occasional and have nothing in common. In reality they always reflect the ongoing fight behind the scenes between different groups inside the world financial oligarchy. On the whole, they could be divided into two large camps: 1) those, who defend the existing status quo in the world, or the circulation of paper money, where the US dollar plays the leading part without any back-up; 2) the supporters of idea to get back to gold standards. 

The first camp comprises the owners (major shareholders) of printing press – the United States Federal Reserve System and associated banks (which belong to the very same shareholders of the Federal Reserve System). They are the privileged recipients of paper production. Gold is seen as a dangerous competitor putting the dollar in jeopardy. Those, who belong to the group, will do their best to prolong the life of printing press, including provocation of a major war if need be. First of all, the group is represented by the clan of Rockefellers. There are also some clans of lesser fame. Aside from the Federal Reserve System’s printing press, they all exercise control over the world market of «black gold» and the US military-industrial complex. 

The second camp of gold standard supporters is a motley crew of much broader representation. It includes part of world financial oligarchy, which is not so closely connected to the US Federal Reserve System. It has significant gold reserves at its disposal and exercises control over extraction and production of yellow metal. It is ready to eliminate the printing press in favor of gold standard. The group is mainly associated with the clan of Rothschilds and some smaller clans, which to large extent are drawn to Europe. It should be noted, that the dollar system has discredited itself to the extent the world «gold» oligarchy sees no glitches on the way of recruiting supporters from all walks of life, so it enjoys a broad social base throughout the whole world. Suffice it to remember, the Occupy Wall Street movement, is, in essence, not targeted against the Wall Street banks only, but against the US Federal Reserve System as well, the agency which serves as the bulwark and rear base of the Rockefellers empire. 

The Rothschilds are behind numerous initiatives aimed at legalization of gold as currency metal. But any attack launched by the Rotshields is fought back by the Rockefellers. It’s kind of a seesaw battle at the «gold front», a ding-dong tug-of-war between the Rotshields and the Rockefellers. Now, let’s look more attentively at Switzerland. The battle started two years ago with no outcome in sight. There is no explanation as to why the «parallel» gold money was not launched into circulation in 2012 as previously planned. Swiss and world media stopped highlighting the issue as if upon a command. One can make a conjecture, that the process was stymied by the Rockefellers. Perhaps, the Rotshields and the Rockefellers held talks behind the curtain and managed to reach a compromise: for instance, the US government stops raiding the Swiss banks (for instance, using the accusation of involvement into money laundering for dictators or resorting to other reasons to justify the activities), while Switzerland freezes the process of bringing the «parallel» gold currency into circulation. 

I have mentioned above the «gold» initiatives launched by 13 states of the USA. After Utah introduced gold currency, other twelve states started to hit snags on the way of doing the same thing. I’m sure, that the clan of Rockefellers saw it as a threat for the Federal Reserve System’s future, so it stepped on all economic and political «breaks» to slow it all down. 

Probably, it’s not occasional that there are different limitations imposed on gold buying and selling operations introduced off and on in this or that country. Normally the limitations are explained by the need to fight money laundering (gold is ideally suited for laundering)), financing the fight against terrorism, corruption etc. For instance, in the summer of 2012 the tranquil and civilized Austria banned individual gold banking transactions exceeding $15000 at a time (back then it was no more than eleven ounces of gold). The government said the measure was aimed at supporting the United States in its fight against international terrorism and organized transnational crime. In September 2011 France followed the Austria’s example introducing curbs on individual purchases of gold sold by banks. It’s even tougher in the United States and some other countries. A lot of cities, like Houston, Texas, have made it obligatory to produce identification documents in case of gold buy or sell operations. The gold transactions are watched by banks as well as intelligence units of the Department of Treasure, The Federal Bureau of Investigations, and the Home Security Department. I think the campaign aimed at inflating the threat of international terrorism, is championed by the clan of Rockefellers. In particular, that’s the way they tackle the mission of curbing the use of gold as metal currency. 

War as argument in «dollar against gold» dispute

To assess the prospects for world financial system‘s transition from the current dollar standard to gold standard one has to take into consideration the world military balance, the range of possibilities to use force by the clan of Rockefellers. It would be expedient to remember the events in and around Iraq and Libya. When the leaders of these countries took the bull by the horn and launched practical steps to refuse the dollar as the means of payment for oil and other commodities, the United States immediately launched wars against the «dictators». When Muammar Gaddafi tried to introduce the gold dinar, Libya was supported and cautiously «promoted» by the clan of Rothschilds. Some little known facts provide testimony to the affirmation. For instance, Dominique Gaston André Strauss-Kahn, former Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund, was the protégé of the Rotshields. In 2011 he supported the idea of bringing the gold dinar into circulation. The clan of the Rockefellers hit back, it delivered a punch against Strauss-Kahn first, and then it struck Libya.

The Strauss-Kahn story is a reflection of deep contradictions in the ranks of world oligarchy over the future of world financial system. Since 2009 Strauss-Kahn was firmly supporting the part of world financial oligarchy, which stood for elimination of the dollar as world currency. In particular, then head of the International Monetary Fund lashed out against the «Washington consensus» – a statement of principles aimed at US dollar’s global dominance. 

Today military interventions against sovereign states appear to be United States responses to the threats posed to the interests of Rockefellers. The objective is to rebuff any attempts to refuse the production of the US Federal Reserve System’s printing press (the secondary goal is establishing control over the «black gold» reserves). But it’s a long time the world got fed up with the dollars forcibly imposed on it by the Central Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon and NATO. Washington declares to be «centers of terror» all those, who stand against receiving green pieces of paper of no value. They are subject to military interventions and economic blockades. The clan of Rothschilds skillfully uses the world growing anti-US sentiments to promote its plan to make the world shift to gold standards.

Crisis of Papacy https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2013/02/20/crisis-of-papacy/ Tue, 19 Feb 2013 20:00:01 +0000 https://strategic-culture.lo/news/2013/02/20/crisis-of-papacy/ The on-going events reflect the fact that the Catholic Church goes through crisis today. It has failed to stand up to the process of dechristianization spreading up in the Western society. Actually it is the collapse of the very institution of Papacy. A Pope’s resignation is usually outstanding news, but this time it was taken in stride by the world. It was perceived as an ordinary resignation, something that undermined even more the image of Pope as «God’s Lieutenant on earth» after a number of down to earth, mundane scandals shook Vatican… Still what has happened is an extraordinary event. The tough fight is going on inside the city-state…The very crisis is a result of extremely strong outside pressure on the Holy See. The goal is to limit the Pope’s influence as the one who exposes the theory of «new world order». Actually that’s what he has been focused on recently, were it arguing for establishing a «universal political power», calling for creating a «global central bank» or supporting coups in North Africa. 

Unlike in other states, the power in Vatican is of sacral nature, it’s an absolute theocratic monarchy. The Pope holds all the reins as a Roman bishop, a secular clergyman and the sovereign of Vatican City State. It’s not so easy to limit his power. Today we are facing the repetition of the same scheme used to destitute the Holy See of temporal power in September 1870. Those days kind of a play was staged to may it appear the Pope was brought down by revolutionary Italian army. The idea was to transfer Vatican and its land to new Italian rulers along with the debts of around 30 million of scudos (the currency of the Papal States until 1866). The Pope failed to pay it off to the Rothschild family. It is impossible to make the Pope go bankrupt. So the debt restructuration plan was invented to make the wolves (the Rotshields) sated and the sheep (the Pope and his retinue) intact getting away with only sheepskin cut. The loss of temporal power was compensated. In 1870, the First Vatican Council proclaimed the dogma of papal infallibility for the occasions the pope speaks ex cathedra when issuing a solemn definition of faith or morals. 

Today the Pope sovereignty is questioned again. The only thing is that the inclusion of the Pope’s power into the «new world order» means in practice transferring Vatican’s money to the total control of world banking mafia. It strikes the most close and untouchable Holy See structure – the Vatican Bank, which is the Pope’s bank, not an official Vatican state financial institution; the Pope is the only share holder and fully controls it through an oversight commission of five cardinals. 

Pope Benedict ХVI has come under unprecedented pressure during the last three years. Gianluigi Nuzzi had touched a nerve with his 2010 Vatican SPA, an investigative book on the Vatican banking practices. Then the bank was subject to strict punishment. A part of its assets was arrested. Criminal proceedings were initiated against Tedesci, the head of the Bank those days. Back then the bank was imposed a fine. After that the Holy See made an abrupt turn, financial transparency became the slogan of the day. Vatican started a campaign to be included into the FATF «white list» and adopted a law against money laundering. It asked MONEYVAL (the Council of Europe action against the Money Laundering and the Financing of Terrorism) to recognize the bank as the only organization matching the international norms. 

The steps taken were not enough, the pressure increased. The appearance of the book called His Holiness: The Secret Papers of Benedict XVI (Italian: Sua Santità. Le carte segrete di Benedetto XVI), published by Italian journalist Gianluigi Nuzzi, capped the climax. It saw light in May 2012 and portrayed the Vatican as a corrupt hotbed of jealousy, intrigue and underhanded factional fighting. The book showed the Pope was vulnerable to pressure exerted by outside forces. Nobody made precise what exactly forces were meant. Still, somebody paid attention on the fact that the surge of pressure on the Pope coincided with a remarkable event: on May 30 2012 the Rotshields and Rockefellers concluded an agreement on joining the assets of their companies. Rothshild Investment Trust «Capital Partners» (RIT CP) bought a big package of Rockefeller Financial services (RFS) shares. The RFS is responsible for the Rockefellers and other US richest families business.

In July 2012 The 241-page report by MONEYVAL, the committee of financial experts backed by the 47-nation Council of Europe, warned that Holy See regulators lacked the power to oversee how money flows through Vatican City. In January 2012 the Italian central bank blocked all electronic payments in Vatican, debit and credit cards were not received anymore. All Italian commercial banks were forbidden to operate on the Vatican’s soil because it «does not meet the EU common banking standards on vigilance». The pressure grew, so it is logical to surmise that the reason behind the declared resignation of Benedict XVI is impossibility to continue the game of maneuvering. It becomes too perilous: the Vatican old timers still remember the sad fate of John Paul I who launched the reform of financial structures and died 33 days later after his election to the Papacy.

It’s hardly an occasion the last important decision before the death was related to the Vatican Bank; the position of its head had been vacant since May 2012. On February 16 2013 Ernst von Freyberg, a German lawyer and financier, a specialist on merging, became the head of the Bank. What stands out is the fact that von Freiberg is a Knight of Malta. The Order of Knights of Malta is even more influential than Opus Dei, formally known as The Prelature of the Holy Cross that former head of the Bank Gotti Tedeschi belonged to. The order is a rather closed group uniting the Western nobility; it’s also kind of an international business club exerting substantial influence on world politics. The assignment of Ernst von Freyberg can be considered as a one more step on the way to transferring the Vatican financial system to the control of world financial clans. It’s interesting Benedict XVI never saw the new bank director, his candidacy was the choice of Spencer & Stuart, an executive search consulting firm based in Chicago. The agency is called a «headhunter». 

No matter he tried to keep up with the times and meet the requirements of globalization, no matter he facilitated further rapprochement between Catholicism and Judaism, Benedict XVI is still stuck in the mud in the eyes of the many who belong to the powers that be. His conservative views and the adherence to traditional values poorly matched the strategy of global elites. A new Pope will have to apply more efforts to become «tolerant» enough for those who are accustomed to speak on behalf of the world community. A new Pontific will have to be «on modern lines».

«Dragon Family Gold» and US Federal Reserve System (II) https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2012/12/10/dragon-family-gold-and-us-federal-reserve-system-ii/ Sun, 09 Dec 2012 20:00:02 +0000 https://strategic-culture.lo/news/2012/12/10/dragon-family-gold-and-us-federal-reserve-system-ii/ Part I

David Wilcock, the author of a series of publications under a single name Financial Tyranny thinks the concentration of giant reserves of gold in clandestine storages was needed by the world oligarchy for the issuance of paper money flows without any back up. Some other authors share the support of this version referring to Adam Smith, who in his The Wealth of Nations made a thorough study of the woes inherent in the financial system backed by gold and the ways to make it without gold currency. He proved it to be evil for capitalists and the whole society. The only beneficiary of the gold standard, imposed on many states by the end of the XIX century, were the Rothschilds, who controlled the major portion of gold, at least in Europe, if not in the whole world (David Ricardo, another Englishman, who was a friend and companion of Nathan Rothschild, gave a «scientific» substantiation of gold standard).

There has always been a competition between gold and paper currency. The gold competitor had to be physically eliminated. This goal was allegedly set in the days of WWI, but failed to be fully achieved (as is known the gold standard was restored in the 1920-30s, though in limited form of gold bullions and gold exchange standards). The attempts to fully get rid of gold in the financial world failed after WWII: the 1944 Bretton Woods conference established the gold-dollar exchange standard. In the 1970s the Bretton Woods system was brought to an end, the dollar became flat currency, the printing press went in full force. The world entered a completely new phase of its development that can be defined as full economic liberalization and financial globalization. The official sources report the US refused its free gold for dollar exchange obligations because the Treasury reserves were rapidly melting; there was not enough for further exchange operations. «Information guerillas» think it’s a lie, the US had enormous gold reserves it hid on purpose to maintain the status of «black» gold. During about sixty years (from WWI to the Jamaica 1976 conference, when it was decided gold was no longer used as a means to cover the currency in global payments) yellow metal was purposefully accumulated from all the corners of the world into a single storage under the control of, first of all, the major Federal Reserve shareholders, who dreamed since a long time they could make riches from «air»…

«Black» gold: questions and answers

This version is really capturing, it meets all the rules inherent in the genre of conspirology. Still, many answers should be answered to make it sound plausible. First of all, how did the global financial oligarchy manage to get the major part of the world gold into a clandestine storage? How much was accumulated? Why the people, whose gold was taken away to be placed into a secret place, kept their mouth shut for such a long time? Where is the gold now? Who manages the reserves and how is it done? And so on, that’s the way it goes. Let’s try to find answers in the works of «information guerillas».

The total amount of «black» gold in clandestine storage is estimated to be around over two million metric tons at least. Some authors say it’s more. David Wilcock gives a precise estimate in his Financial Tyranny: 2.420.937, 4 kg. The bulk of it comes from China (85%) and other Asian states. Many authors hold the view the major part of gold was transferred from China in 1938 at the time it was occupied by Japan. There was a risk the gold, that belonged to a few Guomindang top leaders, would be captured. The Federal Reserve System lent a helping hand to the Chinese comrades and offered good terms of storing the metal. As the «guerillas» say the very same year (1938) seven ships left China for the USA with the Dragon Family’s gold on board. Thus, the gold was transferred and deposited by private owners in a half voluntary, half compulsory way, guaranteeing stable 4% annual income. The gold is recorded in the Global Collateral Combined Accounts. But these accounts are not legal, they are part of parallel financial system, its existence is known by very few. David Wilcock, Benjamin Fulford, David Guyatt and other «guerillas» emphasize the special place of Japan. As is known this country surfaced to the world arena after the Meiji revolution in 1868. The British Empire, that was ruled behind the curtain by the Rothschilds, looked at Japan as best suited for being a springboard for efforts aimed at grabbing the whole Asian gold. It was a densely populated technologically backward middle age country. Britain supplied the Satsuma and Chōshū clans with modern weapons and shared its knowledge of then contemporary art of war to make them quickly capture the part of the country still out of their control. Then the country of «rising sun» started its expansion into China. The countless Chinese riches were in jeopardy. Part of gold was captured by Japanese. To save the remaining (larger) part the Chinese had to resort to the «service» of British bankers first, and then (after WWI) – the US Federal Reserve.

The gold «freezing» project and the Bank for International Settlements (BIS)

The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) was founded in 1930 in Basel (Switzerland). It has become an important element of clandestine financial system. According to the «guerillas», the idea came to leading Western politicians right after WWI. Japan’s emperor Hirohito allegedly was among those who was at the origin of the bank’s creation. In 1921 he visited Great Britain and signed secret documents related to the establishment of the bank. It’s widely known the BIS funded Hitler and cooperated with the Nazi during the whole WWII. The world financial oligarchy tasked it with one more large-scale mission – to support the creation of clandestine «black» gold reserve. Indeed, no matter its lack of transparency, the bank had aggressively dealt with gold. Some sources say the «black» gold had been secretly deposited in the BIS. However, many researches had dropped hints before the current events that the BIS was a key institution of the parallel (clandestine) financial system serving the interests of global elite. For instance, professor Carroll Quigley (1910-1977) of Georgetown University, a historian and a researcher on conspirology, the author of well-known book called Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time (1966), said openly, making no bones about it, that the BIS was intent on "the power of financial capitalism had a far reaching plan, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences».

«Black» gold and golden cartel

Now let’s get back to the «black» gold bonds. They had face value and the date of return to the initial owner. The transfers were done in different years and, correspondingly, the dates of return differed too. As to «information guerillas», the bonds looked differently, there was no single standard. Some were personalized, others – payable to bearer. With different values they all were measured in millions, dozen and hundreds of millions, and even billions of dollars.

Most often it’s the ones dated 1934, their number keeps on growing. The «guerillas» offer the following explanation: the gold prices steadily grow, the Federal Reserve Banks keep on issuing the 1934 bonds to compensate the lawful owners for the rise in prices for the security metal. Moreover. The US fiscal powers (the Federal Reserve System and the Department of Treasury) do their best to slow down the «yellow» metal price growth.

In case of experts it’s an open secret the so called «gold cartel» exists in the world that goes to any length to hold back the gold prices growth. It functions under the aegis of US Federal Reserve System, the US Department of Treasury and includes the Bank of England, the BIS and a number of Wall Street banks (Goldman Sachs, G.P. Morgan, City etc.). Some organizations, like, for instance, the already mentioned GATA (Gold Anti-Trust Action), came out with the disclosure of «world cartel» activities by the end of the 1990s. In 2009, Kevin Warsh, member of Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, had to admit upon GATA’s demand and in accordance with the US freedom of information act the central bank had secret agreements with foreign banks on gold exchange. Having retired, Warsh spoke at Stanford University on January 26, 2012. He was more frank: central banks strictly controlled gold prices.

Now the Internet presents multiple pictures of prewar securities. They are all in English. It’s worth to note, there are mistakes in words spelling. The «guerillas» insinuate it’s done on purpose. They allege the financial oligarchs planned in advance «to chisel» the securities owners. The present day «black» gold owners could say to bearers of «defective» bonds their papers were «cheap» and «illiterate» fakes.

«Black» gold mathematics

As the «guerillas» say the financial oligarchs started «to bamboozle» the securities owners from the very start, since 1928 to be exact (the earliest date of bonds issuance): the owners didn’t get a penny as deposit interests. The «guerillas» made a thorough study of the subject. During the period of 1961 – 2011 (51 years) the overall clandestine financial system’s gold liabilities totalled 4.638.792, 0 metric tons (on the assumption of 4% annual interest rate). It’s almost twice as much as the amount of gold initially deposited with the system. Taking into account the market price of 1 ton of gold is around $30 million today, the ‘black» gold holders owe to the real owners $140,000.000.000.000, or $140,000.000 billion, or $140,000 trillion. For reference: the US GDP is $15 trillion, the global GDP is $60 trillion, according to experts the world wealth is estimated to be around $200 trillion. As one can see the «black» gold mathematics makes us deal with exorbitant figures going beyond human imagination.

Moreover, the «black» gold was supposed to be «sealed» and out of circulation for all the years (the space was needed for «press» issuing paper currency). Still some say the oligarchy dipped its hand into the storage and used the gold for its purposes. No one of «guerillas» wrote in detail about it. They only mention beneficiaries with sonorous names: the Committee of 300, Scull and Bones, the Bilderberg Club, the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations. Phil Shannon, another researcher on the issue, says the «black gold» was secretly put to work by all US presidents to «interfere in the political life of sovereign nations, to buy elections, to undercut the rule of law, to control the media, to carry out assassinations, in short to impose America’s will».

Presidents Sukarno, John Kennedy and the Green Hilton agreement

After WWII the owners of the gold and other assets leased to the Federal Reserve – the richest Asian families – joined together in an association of Trustees now known as the Amanah or Mandates. The organization was chaired by then President of Indonesia Sukarno. The researchers say there was the special UN resolution (MISA 81704), adopted by the United Nations that legitimized the authority of Sukarno. The Green Hilton agreement is an important turn of events in the «black» gold history. Allegedly in 1963 the Sukarno-led Association and US President John Kennedy concluded an agreement. Under its terms the gold entrusted to the Bank for International Settlements was transferred to the US financial system (the Treasury, not the Federal Reserve) to underpin the US dollar in the capacity of international currency. The «black» gold was to be gradually legalized and brought into economic circulation. The details of agreement are still not known, but the impression is that the legalized gold reserves got some kind of status going beyond the national limits and had to be managed by all interested parties. One could allege the dollar backed up by international gold reserves, was to stop being a pure national means of payment and acquire the traits of supranational currency. The international gold reserves were to be used for funding large-scale programs aimed at overcoming the «third world’s» social-economic backwardness. If such agreements really took place they actually would mean drastic revision of postwar financial system based on the Bretton Woods 1944 conference accords.

Initially the President of the United States planned to start the internationally supported issuance of bills backed up by metal. That is the Federal Reserve System was to be deprived of the right to issue money it received in 1913. Allegedly that’s exactly the time (July 1963) the President’s known executive order (№ 11110) on the issuance of «silver» dollar saw light. The Green Hilton agreement and the order stoked anger of the Federal Reserve bosses, in a few days after President Kennedy was killed. The attempts to unfreeze the «black» gold reserves failed. In 1967 President Sukarno was fallen from power. Today when it comes to the issues related to the «black» gold the developing countries are represented by the organization called the Sukarno Trust. It is headed by some Dr. Seno (a relative of Sukarno). The Trust’s member countries have intensified their activities recently. According to Benjamin Fulford, not long ago a forum of 117 Sukarno Trust members took place in Monaco. In the given case I have presented a cursory look at the version of how the events unfolded based on the «guerillas» publications. I have failed to find the Green Hilton agreement itself.

(To be continued)
