The Federal Reserve plan to crash the economy and make room for world government and an authoritarian globalist economic and accompanying police state control system will necessitate a sufficient prerequisite – and that prerequisite may very well be a new war on the Korean peninsula.

It should be obvious by now that the Federal Reserve’s so-called quantitative easing – bankster shorthand for pumping fiat dollars into rigged financial markets by buying bonds, treasury bills, etc. – is creating a huge financial asset bubble that is going to burst with an ear-splitting boom… and soon.   Continue reading “Global Elite Preparing New Korean War to Coincide with Economic Implosion?”

International Man – by Nick G.

NY Times columnist Paul Krugman recently penned an article in which he comes out in favor of capital controls.

Not surprisingly, his argument follows the near cookie cutter justification used by governments throughout history to seize more control over their citizens.

  1. Spuriously shift the blame for the crisis onto foreigners.
  1. Claim the increase in government control is for “your own good.”   Continue reading “Another Warning Sign – NY Times Columnist Favors Capital Controls”

Nearly one in five high school age boys in the United States and 11 percent of school-age children over all have received a medical diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, according to new data from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

These rates reflect a marked rise over the last decade and could fuel growing concern among many doctors that the A.D.H.D. diagnosis and its medication are overused in American children.   Continue reading “A.D.H.D. Seen in 11% of U.S. Children as Diagnoses Rise”

Golden Dawn member, Athens 21/4/12The Guardian – by Helena Smith

Emboldened by its meteoric rise in Greece, the far-right Golden Dawn party is spreading its tentacles abroad, amid fears it is acting on its pledge to “create cells in every corner of the world”. The extremist group, which forged links with British neo-Nazis when it was founded in the 1980s, has begun opening offices in Germany, Australia, Canada and the US.

The international push follows successive polls that show Golden Dawn entrenching its position as Greece’s third, and fastest growing, political force. First catapulted into parliament with 18 MPs last year, the ultra-nationalists captured 11.5% support in a recent survey conducted by polling company Public Issue.   Continue reading “Greece’s neo-Nazi Golden Dawn goes global with political ambitions”

(Reuters) – The 193-nation U.N. General Assembly is tentatively planning to vote on Tuesday on a draft treaty to regulate the $70 billion global trade in conventional arms.

IranSyria and North Korea last week prevented a treaty drafting conference at U.N. headquarters from reaching the required consensus to adopt the treaty. That left delegations that support it no choice but to turn to the General Assembly to adopt it.   Continue reading “U.N. General Assembly to vote on draft arms trade treaty?”

As the immigration reform Gang of Eight inside the Beltway prepares to announce a deal later this week, claiming border security will come before a path to citizenship for millions of illegals, Border Patrol agents have seen illegal border crossings double and warn the cutting of agent work hours will only result in less border security, not more.   Continue reading “Illegal Border Crossings Double, Border Becomes Less Secure as Beltway Gets Close to Deal on Immigration Reform”

The recent news about Cyprus banks confiscating depositor’s funds sent chills throughout the financial world here and abroad.  I couldn’t believe that the plan in Cyprus hinged on the idea that the bank could just steal customer’s funds to balance the bank’s books.  I muttered to myself when I read the story that something as crazy as that couldn’t possible happen here in the United States.  Unfortunately, I learned that the plan to pull a Cyprus type grab here was already in the works.    Continue reading “Could the Banksters Grab Your Bank Deposits?”

According to InvestmentWatch and Alex Jones a secret DHS memo to banks claims they can open any safe deposit box or storage unit without a warrant. This story originally came out sometime in 2011 and was posted by Know The Lies and numerous other sites.  It’s hard to track down where this alleged story originated from, I haven’t been able to find any documents to back up these claims. In the 2011 article they referenced a CRS report titled “Homeland Security: Banking and Financial Infrastructure Continuity”  I could find no reference to DHS prying open our safe deposit boxes or storage units.   Continue reading “Why does DHS consider activists criminals and are they spying on our safe deposit boxes?”

Burning people’s homes down has apparently become the new standard operating procedure for ending standoffs.

Of course, just like with Dorner the police won’t admit they burned it down, they just threw a multitude of flammables into the house, then in an unrelated incident it happened to catch fire.    Continue reading “Cops Burn Down Another House During Standoff”
