If you are picking up this publication for the fi rst time and wondering what we are all about, the answer is freedom. We stand behind the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the concept of 1776 expanding worldwide – the idea of liberty all over the planet.

We are a fi rewall standing between liberty and the tyranny of a corporatist and monopolist system that is diabolically op-posed to freedom and the free market, especially when it comes to media and the unrestricted fl ow of information.

We oppose wireless NSA wiretapping and the secret arrest of Americans under the NDAA. We oppose endless and criminal proxy wars carried out in our names. We oppose the persecu-tion of people for religious or cultural reasons.

We are not left or right. We are constitutionalists. Because Obama is currently the titular head of the global empire and crime syndicate, a lot of this publication will be about his actions. In the past, we were critical of Bush. We will also examine Rom-ney and others who may replace Obama and his administration.

Infowars.com and Prison Planet.com, our fl agship websites, are rated by Alexa.com and similar metrics that gauge web traffi c as the top alternative media site in the world. Infowars.com receives about twice the traffi c of MSNBC.com.

News via print is dying as a result of a perfect storm. People are abandoning corporate newspapers and print publications and instead are fl ocking to the web as so-called mainstream newspa-pers just regurgitate corporate and government talking points. Mainstream news is also dying online – this is why we are able to dominate them with fi lm, videos, and our news websites.

Print is impervious to a government kill switch and any other electronic scheme designed to shut down areas of the web the government wants censored. Digital and networked technology make it easy for corporate control freaks to track down dissi-dents, delete their words and even kill audio fi les of their voic-es, as they have done with my voice on YouTube. Corporations have gone so far as to claim copyright on voices, including that of Optimus Prime, a character from the Transformers franchise. That’s right – YouTube is now adhering to third party claims of ownership – many of them erroneous – to people’s own voices, and using this as a pretext to delete content – representing a new frontier of censorship via copyright.

Automated software bots are now being used to preemptively censor content with no due process whatsoever.

Kindle recently demonstrated how it is possible to remove content when it invaded privately owned devices without permission or warning and deleted ebooks. As Apple co-found-

er Steve Wozniak recently warned, the very idea of cloud computing poses a threat to the existence of digital material and the idea of individual ownership. The director of the CIA has admitted that the Internet is a surveillance tool that even gives “smart” appliances the ability to spy on you.

This censorship war amounts to nothing less than electronic book burning, where words and ideas can be digitally erased from the “cloud”. The automated bots will now do the work of the fi remen in Ray Bradbury’s dystopian classic "Fahrenheit 451."

Print makes this sort of censorship virtually impossible. It allows you to hold a physical copy in your hand – a physical copy that you can now pick up in your city or order online in bulk at cost price at www.infowarsshop.com and give to friends and family.

We’re going back to the very roots of free speech – the Gutenberg printing press – while also continuing to expand in an increasingly restrictive Internet space, where cybersecurity legislation is little different from what the state is doing to the freedom of expression in Russia. More and more, the web is darkening as our authoritarian government expands its reach.

While we continue to fi ght for Internet and cyber freedom, it is important to embrace print at a time when everyone is aban-doning it. Print media is important because it is not dependent on a device that can be controlled, disabled or turned off by a government kill switch or at the whim of a corporation. All you need are your eyes; print gives the power to the reader.

Over the next year, we will transition from a monthly to a weekly publication. We will also launch a franchising of the pub-lication within the next few months. This will allow others that share a passionate love of liberty to add their local stories to our national and international content. Franchising will also allow you to share ad space. In addition, we will offer a digital copy of the publication which you can receive for FREE. All you have to do is sign up for our newsletter at infowars.com/newsletter.

Ultimately, the success of this new venture is up to you and other liberty lovers eager to see the message of resistance de-livered across all media. Hopefully we will serve as an example that will help lead print back from oblivion and make it a truly useful activist tool in the fi ght against global control freaks determined to dominate all media and to wipe out the message of resistance as they move to consolidate power and dominate the world.

The senseless and horrifi c killings at the movie theater in Colorado reminded Americans that life is fragile and beautiful, and we should not take family, friends, and loved ones for granted.

Our prayers go out to the injured victims and the families of those killed. As a nation we should

use this terrible event to come together with the resolve to create a society that

better values life.We should also face the sober real-

ity that government cannot protect us from all possible harm. No matter how many laws we pass, no matter how many police or federal agents we put on the streets, no matter how routinely we monitor Internet com-

munications, a determined individual or group can still cause great harm. We

as individuals are responsible for our safety and the safety of our families.

Furthermore, it is the role of civil society rather than government to build a culture of

responsible, peaceful, productive individuals. Government cannot mandate morality or instill

hope in troubled individuals. External controls on our behavior imposed

by government through laws, police, and jails

usually apply only after a terrible crime has occurred.

Internal self governance, by contrast, is a much

more powerful regulator of human behavior than any law. This self-governance must be developed from birth, fi rst by parents but later also through the positive infl uence of relatives and adult role models. Beyond childhood, char-acter development can occur through religious, civic, and social institutions. Ultimately, self-governance cannot be developed without an underlying foundation of morality.

Government, however, is not a moral actor. The state should protect our rights, but it cannot develop our character. Whenever terrible crimes occur, many Americans understandably demand that government “do something” to prevent similar crimes in the future. But this refl exive impulse almost always leads to bad laws and the loss of liberty.

Do we really want to live in a world of police check-points, surveillance cameras, and metal detectors? Do we really believe government can provide total security? Do we want to involuntarily commit every disaffected, disturbed, or alienated person who fantasizes about vio-lence? Or can we accept that liberty is more important than the illusion of state-provided security?

Freedom is not defi ned by safety. Freedom is defi ned by the ability of citizens to live without government inter-ference. Government cannot create a world without risks, nor would we really wish to live in such a fi ctional place. Only a totalitarian society would even claim absolute safety as a worthy ideal, because it would require total state control over its citizens’ lives. Liberty has meaning only if we still believe in it when terrible things happen and a false government security blanket beckons.

costs are counted the Iraq invasion cost U.S. taxpayers $3 trillion. Ditto for the Afghan war. In other words, the two gratuitous wars doubled the U.S. public debt. This is the reason there is no money for Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, the environment and the social safety net.

Americans got nothing out of the wars, but as the war debt will never be paid off, U.S. citizens and their descendants will have to pay interest on $6,000 billion of war debt in perpetuity.

Not content with these wars, the Bush/Obama regime is conducting military operations in violation of international law in Pakistan, Yemen and Africa, organized the overthrow by armed confl ict of the gov-ernment in Libya, is currently working to overthrow the Syrian government and continues to marshal mil-itary forces against Iran.

Finding the Muslim adversaries that Washington created insuffi cient for its energies and budget, Washington has encircled Russia with military bases and has begun the encirclement of China. Washington has announced that the bulk of its naval forces will be shifted to the Pacifi c over the next few years, and Washington is working to reestablish its naval base

in the Philippines, construct a new one on a South Korean island, acquire a naval base in Vietnam and air and troop bases elsewhere in Asia.

In Thailand, Washington is attempting to purchase with the usual bribes an air base used in the Vietnam War. There is opposition as the country does not wish to be drawn into Washington’s orchestrated confl ict with China. Downplaying the real reason for the airbase, Washington, according to Thai newspapers, told the Thai government that the base was needed for “humanitarian missions.” This didn’t fl y. So Washington had NASA ask for the air base in order to conduct “weather experiments.” Whether this ruse is suffi cient cover remains to be seen.

U.S. Marines have been sent to Australia and else-where in Asia.

To corral China and Russia (and Iran) is a massive undertaking for a country that is fi nancially busted. With wars and bankster bailouts, Bush and Obama have doubled the U.S. national debt while failing to address the disintegration of the U.S. economy and ris-ing hardships of U.S. citizens.

The annual U.S. budget defi cit is adding to the accu-mulated debt at about $1.5 trillion per year with no

In a recent column, “Can The World Survive Washington’s Hubris,” I promised to examine whether the U.S. economy will collapse before Washington in its pursuit of world hegemony brings

us into military confrontation with Russia and China. This is likely to be an ongoing subject, so this column will not be the fi nal word.

Washington has been at war since October 2001, when President George W. Bush concocted an excuse to order the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan. This war took a back seat when Bush concocted another excuse to order the invasion of Iraq in 2003, a war that went on with-out signifi cant success for eight years and has left Iraq in chaos with dozens more killed and wounded every day, a new strong man in place of the illegally executed former strongman and the likelihood of the ongoing violence becoming civil war.

Upon his election, President Obama foolishly sent more troops to Afghanistan and renewed the intensity of that war, now in its eleventh year, to no successful effect.

These two wars have been expensive. According to estimates by Joseph Stiglitz and Linda Bilmes, when all

move away from its use to settle their balance of payments, could set off infl ation that would take interest rates out of the Fed’s control. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall.

In other words, bonds are now the bubble that real estate, stocks, and derivatives were. When this bubble pops, Americans will take another big hit to their remaining wealth.

It makes no sense to invest in long-term bonds at negative interest rates when the federal government is piling up debt that the Federal Reserve is monetizing and when other countries are moving away from the fl ood of dollars. The potential for a rising rate of infl ation is high from debt monetization and from a drop in the dollar’s exchange value. Yet, bond fund portfolio managers have to follow the herd into longer term maturities or see their performance relative to their peers drop to the bottom of the rankings.

Some individual investors and foreign central banks, anticipating the dollar’s loss of value, are accumulating gold and silver bullion. Realizing the danger to the dollar and its policy from the rapid rise in the price of bullion during 2011, the Federal Reserve has arranged offsetting action. When the demand for physical bullion drives up the price, short sales of bullion in the paper market are used to drive the price back down.

Similarly, when investors begin to fl ee Treasuries, thus causing interest rates to rise, J.P. Morgan and other dependencies of the Federal Reserve sell interest-rate swaps, thus offsetting the effect on interest rates of the bond sales. (Keep in mind that interest rates rise when bond prices fall and vice versa.)

The point of all this information is to e s t a b l i s h that except for the 1 percent, the incomes and wealth of Americans are being cut back across the board. From 2002 through 2011 the economy lost 3.5 million manufacturing jobs. These jobs were replaced with lower-paying waitress and bar- tender jobs (1.2 million), ambu- latory health care service jobs (1.5 million) and social assistance jobs (578,000).

These replacement jobs in domestic services mean that on a net basis U.S. c o n s u m e r income was moved out of the country. Potential a g g r e g a t e demand in the U.S. dropped by the differences in pay in the job cat-egories. Clearly and u n a m b i g u -ously, job-offshoring lowered U.S. disposable income and U.S. GDP and, thereby, employment.

Despite the lack of an economic base, Washington’s hegemonic aspirations continue unabated. Other coun-tries are amused at Washington’s unawareness. Russia, China, India, Brazil and South Africa are forming an agreement to abandon the U.S. dollar as the currency for international settlement between themselves.

On July 4 the China Daily reported, “Japanese politicians and promi-nent academics from China and Japan urged Tokyo on Tuesday to aban-don its outdated foreign policy of leaning on the West and accept China as a key partner as important as the United States. The Tokyo Consensus, a joint statement issued at the end of the Beijing-Tokyo Forum, also called on both countries to expand trade and promote a free-trade agreement for China, Japan and South Korea.”

This means that Japan is in play.The Chinese government, more intelligent than Washington, is

prospect of declining. The fi nancial system is broken and requires ongoing bailouts. The economy is busted and has been unable to cre-ate high-paying jobs, indeed any jobs. Despite years of population growth, payroll employ-ment as of mid-2012 is the same as in 2005 and substantially below 2008. Yet, the government and fi nancial presstitute media tell us that we have a recovery.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment in 2011 was only 1 million more than in 2002. As it takes about 150,000 new jobs each month to stay even with population growth, that leaves a decade long job defi cit of 15 million jobs.

The U.S. unemployment and infl ation rates are far higher than reported. In previous col-umns I have explained, based on statistician John Williams’ work, the reasons that the gov-ernment’s headline numbers are serious under-statements. The headline (U3) unemployment rate of 8.2 percent counts no discouraged workers who have given up on fi nding a job. The government has a second unemployment rate (U6), seldom reported, which includes short-term discouraged workers. That rate is 15 percent. When the long-term discour-aged workers are added in, the current U.S. unemployment rate is 22 percent, a number closer to the unemployment rate of the Great Depression than to the unemployment rates of postwar recessions.

Changes in the way infl ation is measured have destroyed the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as a measure of the cost of living. The new methodology is substitution based. If the price of an item in the index rises, a lower priced alternative takes its place. In addition, some price rises are labeled quality improve-ments whether they are or not and thus do not show up in the CPI. People still have to pay the higher price, but it is not counted as infl ation.

Currently, the substitution-based rate of infl ation is about 2 percent. However, when infl ation is measured as the actual cost of liv-ing, the rate of infl ation is 5 percent.

The Misery Index is the sum of the infl ation and unemployment rates. The level of the cur-rent Misery Index depends on whether the new rigged measures are used, which understate the misery, or the former methodology that accurately measures it.

Prior to the November 1980 election, the Misery Index hit 22 percent, which was one reason for Reagan’s victory over President Carter. Today if we use previous methodology, the Misery Index stands at 27 percent. But if we use the new rigged methodology, the Misery Index is 10 percent.

The understatement of infl ation serves to boost Gross Domestic Product (GDP). GDP is calculated in current dollars. To be able to determine whether GDP rose because of price rises or because of increases in real output,

GDP is defl ated by the CPI. The higher the infl ation rate, the less the growth in real output and vice versa. When the substitution based methodology is used to measure infl ation, the U.S. economy experienced real growth in the 21st century except for the sharp dip during 2008 to 2010. However, if the cost-of-living based methodology is used, except for a short period during 2004, the U.S. economy has experienced no real growth since 2000.

In the chart above, the lower measure (blue) of real GDP is defl ated with the infl ation meth-odology that measured cost-of-living. The higher GDP measure (red) defl ates GDP with the new substitution based methodology.

The lack of employment and real GDP growth go together with the decline in real household median income. The growth in consumer debt substituted for the lack of income growth and kept the economy going until consumers exhausted their ability to take on more debt. With the consumer dead in the water, the out-look for economic recovery is poor.

Politicians and the Federal Reserve are mak-ing the outlook even worse. At a time of high unemployment and debt-stressed households, politicians at local, state and federal levels are cutting back on government provision of health care, pensions, food stamps, housing subsidies and every other element of the social safety net. These cutbacks, of course, further reduce aggregate demand and the ability of income-stressed Americans to survive.

The Federal Reserve has interest rates so low that retirees and others living on their savings can earn nothing on their money. The inter-est rates paid on bank CDs and government and corporate bonds are lower than the rate of infl ation. To live on interest income, a per-son has to purchase Greek, Spanish, or Italian bonds and run the risk of capital loss. The Federal Reserve’s policy of negative interest rates forces retirees to spend down their cap-ital in order to live. In other words, the Fed’s policy is destroying personal savings as people are forced to spend their capital in order to cover living expenses.

In June, the Federal Reserve announced that it was going to continue its policy of driving nominal interest rates even lower, this time focusing on long-term Treasury bonds. The Fed said it would be purchasing $400 billion of the Treasury’s 30-year bonds.

Driving interest rates down means driving bond prices up. With 5-year Treasury bonds paying only seven-tenths of 1 percent and 10-year Treasury bonds paying only 1.6 per-cent, below even the offi cial rate of infl ation, Americans desperate for yield move into 30-year bonds currently paying 2.7 percent. However, the high bond prices mean that the risk of capital loss is very high.

killing American troops, and a government whose mil-itary has been unable to subdue a few thousand lightly armed Taliban after 11 years, is over the top when it organizes war against Iran, Russia and China.

The only prospect Washington has of prevailing in such an undertaking is fi rst use of nuclear weapons, catching its demonized opponents off guard by nuking them out of the blue—in other words, by the elimina-tion of life on earth.

Is this Washington’s program revealed by the neocon-servative warmonger, Bill Kristol, who had no shame to ask publicly, “What’s the good of nuclear weapons if you can’t use them?”

responding to Washington’s military threats by entic-ing away Washington’s two key Asian allies. As the Chinese economy is now as large as the U.S. and on far fi rmer footing, and as Japan now has more trade with China than with the U.S., the enticement is appealing. Moreover, China is next door, and Washington is dis-tant and drowning in its hubris.

Washington, which fl icked its middle fi nger to inter-national law and to its own law and Constitution with its arrogance and gratuitous and illegal wars and with its assertion of the right to murder its own citizens and those of its allies, such as Pakistan, has made the United States a pariah state.

Washington still controls its bought-and-paid-for NATO puppets, but these puppet states are overwhelmed with derivative debt problems brought to them by Wall Street and by sovereign debt problems, some of which were covered up by Wall Street’s Goldman Sachs.

Europe is on the ropes and has no money with which to subsidize Washington’s wars of hegemony.

Washington is becoming an isolated and despised element of the world community. Washington has pur-chased Europe, Canada, Australia, the former Soviet state of Georgia (and almost Ukraine), Columbia and continues its effort to purchase the entire world, but sentiment is turning against the rising Gestapo state that has shown itself to be lawless, ruthless and indif-ferent, even hostile, to human life and human rights.

How is money created? If you ask average people on the street this question, most of them have absolutely no idea. This is rather odd, because we all use money constantly.

You would think that it would only be natural for all of us to know where it comes from. So where does money come from? A lot of people assume that the federal government creates our money, but that is not the case. If the

federal government could just print and spend more money whenever it wanted to, our national debt would be zero. But instead, our national debt is now nearly $16 trillion. So why does our government (or any sovereign government for that matter) have to borrow money from anybody? That is a very good question.

The truth is that in theory the U.S. government does not have to borrow a single penny from anyone. But under the Federal Reserve system, the U.S. government has purposely allowed itself to be subjugated to a fi nancial system in which it will be constantly borrowing larger and larger amounts of money. In fact, this is how it works in the vast majority of the countries on the planet at this point. As you will see, this kind of system is not sustainable, and the structural problems caused by such a system are at the very heart of our debt problems today.

So where does money come from? In the United States, it comes from the Federal Reserve.

When the U.S. government decides that it wants to spend another billion dollars that it does not have, it does not print up a billion dollars.

Rather, the U.S. government creates a bunch of U.S. Treasury bonds (debt) and takes them over to the Federal Reserve.

The Federal Reserve creates a billion dollars out of thin air and exchanges them for the U.S. Treasury bonds.

So why does the U.S. government go to all this trouble? Why doesn’t the U.S. government create the money itself?

Those are very good questions.One of the primary reasons why our system is structured this way is so that

wealthy people can get even wealthier by lending money to the U.S. government and other national governments.

For example, last year the U.S. government spent more than $454 billion just on interest on the national debt.

Over the centuries, the ultra-wealthy have found lending to national governments to be a very, very profi table enterprise.

The U.S. Treasury bonds that the Federal Reserve receives in exchange for

the money it has created out of nothing are auctioned off through the Federal Reserve system.

But wait. There is a problem.Because the U.S. government must

pay interest on the treasury bonds, the amount of debt that has been created by this transaction is greater than the amount of money that has been created.

So where will the U.S. government get the money to pay that debt?

Well, the theory is that we can get money to circulate through the economy really, really fast and tax it at a high enough rate that the government will be able to collect enough taxes to pay the debt.

But that never actually happens, does it?And the creators of the Federal

Reserve understood this as well. They understood that the government would not have enough money to both run the government and service the national debt. They knew that the government would have to keep borrowing even more money in an attempt to keep up with the game.

That is why I call the Federal Reserve

a perpetual debt machine. The Federal Reserve was created to trap the government in an endlessly expanding debt spiral from which there is no escape.

And the Federal Reserve is doing a great job at what it was designed to do. Today, the US national debt is more than 5,000 times larger than it was when the Federal Reserve was fi rst created.

Another way that money comes into existence in our economy is through the process of fractional reserve banking.

I originally pulled the following simplifi ed explanation of fractional reserve banking off of the website of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, but it has been pulled down since then. But I still think it is helpful in understanding the basics of how fractional reserve banking works.

“If the reserve requirement is 10 percent, for example, a bank that receives a $100 deposit may lend out $90 of that deposit. If the borrower then writes a check to someone who deposits the $90, the bank receiving that deposit can lend out $81. As the process continues, the banking system can expand the initial deposit of

$100 into a maximum of $1,000 of money ($100+$90+81+$72.90+…=$1,000).”

When you put your money into the bank, it does not say there. The bank only keeps a relatively small amount of money sitting around to satisfy the withdrawal demands of account holders. If all of us went down to the banks right now and demanded our money, that would create a major problem.

If I put $100 into the bank and the bank lends out 90 of those dollars to you, now it looks like there are $190 fl oating around. I have “$100” in my bank account and you have “$90” that you just borrowed.

The new debt that you have taken on ($90) has “created” more money. But of course you are going to end up paying back more than $90 to the bank, so more debt has been created than the amount of money that has been created.

And that is one of the big problems with our fi nancial system. It is designed so that the amount of debt and the amount of money are supposed to be perpetually expanding, and the amount of debt created is always greater than the amount of money that is created.

So is it any wonder that our society is swamped with nearly $55 trillion of total debt at this point?

A debt-based fi nancial system is unsustainable by nature because it will always create debt bubbles that will inevitably burst.

Are you starting to see why so many Americans are saying that we need to abolish the Federal Reserve system?

Our founding fathers never intended for our fi nancial system to work this way.

According to Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, the U.S. Congress is supposed to have the authority to “coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fi x the Standard of Weights and Measures”.

So why has this authority been given to a private institution that is dominated by the big Wall Street banks and that has actually argued in court that it is “not an agency” of the federal government?

Thomas Jefferson once said that if he could add just one more amendment to the U.S. Constitution it would be a ban on all government borrowing:

“I wish it were possible to obtain a

single amendment to our Constitution. I would be willing to depend on that alone for the reduction of the administration of our government to the genuine principles of its Constitution; I mean an additional article, taking from the federal government the power of borrowing.”

But instead, we have become enslaved to a system where government borrowing actually creates our money.

The borrower is the servant of the lender, and we have allowed our government to enslave us to the tune of nearly $16 trillion.

There are alternatives to this system. Things do not have to work this way.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of our politicians consider the Federal Reserve to be good for America and steadfastly refuse to do anything to change the status quo.

So if you are waiting for “solutions” to these problems on the national level you are going to be waiting for a very long time.

The debt problems that the United States and Europe are experiencing did not come into existence by accident. They are the result of fundamental structural problems with the fi nancial system.

A debt-based fi nancial system is always going to fail in the long run. Unfortunately, most Americans still do not understand this and so we will all get to suffer the consequences.

Americans know, deep in their bones, that something terrible is happening.

Maybe you can't articulate it. Maybe you don't have the statistics to understand exactly

what's going on. But my bet is, you think about it a lot.If you are at all like me, you know something has

gone wrong with America that's critical to our national prosperity, something that jeopardizes the future for our children and ourselves.

Something that threatens both the fi nancial order, like the stock market, and the political order.

Well today, I’d like to help identify the real problem with America, by telling two quick stories.

Both of these stories will give you a very good idea about the current state of our nation and about where we are heading next.

The fi rst story involves some of the most powerful, richest and most-connected people in the country.

Why Are These Guys Not In Jail?

Last fall, Bloomberg published an article based on confi dential sources about how Henry Paulson, the former CEO of Goldman Sachs and the Republican U.S. Treasury secretary during the fi nancial crisis, held a secret meeting with the top 20 hedge-fund managers in New York City in late July 2008.

This was about two weeks after he testifi ed to Congress that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were "well capitalized."

I knew for a fact that what Paulson told Congress wasn't true. I wrote my entire June 2008 newsletter detailing exactly why Fannie and Freddie certainly had billions of dollars in losses that they had not yet revealed to investors—$500 billion in losses, at least. There was no question in my mind…both companies were insolvent—"zeros," as I explained.

And yet, in front of Congress, the U.S. Treasury Secretary was saying exactly the opposite. Either I was a liar...or he was.

Then...only a few days later...what did Paulson tell those hedge-fund managers?

He told them the same thing I had written in my newsletter. He told them the opposite of what he'd said publicly to Congress. He told these billionaire investors that Fannie and Freddie were a disaster. They would require an enormous, multi-billion-dollar bailout. The U.S. government would have to take them over, and

their shareholders would be completely wiped out.Here you had a high-government offi cial explicitly

lying to Congress (and by extension, the general pub-lic), while giving the real facts to a group of people who represented the fi nancial interests of the world's wealthiest folks. The story didn't come to the public's attention for two years.

This was the most outrageous example of graft and corruption I had ever seen. Certainly it involves more billions of dollars in misappropriated value than any other similar story that I can recall. These managers had the risk-free ability to make tens—if not hun-dreds—of billions of dollars by using derivatives to cap-italize on what they knew was the imminent collapse of the world's largest mortgage bank.

Who picked up the tab? You know perfectly well: It was you and me, the taxpayers.

In an interesting side note: One of the investment managers present at this meeting was Steve Rattner, who at that point was already deeply involved in another bit of graft: his efforts to bribe New York state pension-fund managers for large investments into his hedge fund, from which he earned perhaps as much as $100 million. He later settled the charges for a mere $10 million shortly after Andrew Cuomo was elected governor of New York.

The Bloomberg story about a crooked Treasury sec-retary handing a room full of crooked billionaires' inside information worth billions of dollars hardly caused a ripple.

As far as I know, no actions are being planned against Henry Paulson or any of the hedge-fund managers involved. No other major media outlet picked up the story. I saw nothing about it from the Department of Justice or the Securities and Exchange Commission.

What does that say about our country when even the most egregious kind of corruption—involving hun-dreds of billions of dollars—is simply ignored?

It seems like everyone in our country has lost moral bearing, from the highest government offi cials and senior corporate leaders all the way down to school-teachers and local community leaders.

And here’s the point: the ethos of my fellow Americans seems to have changed from one of personal integ-rity and responsibility to "getting yours"—an all-out attempt, by any means possible, to get the most amount of benefi ts with the least amount of work.

Think I’m exaggerating?Well, that brings me to my second story, about

a group of people who are probably the most

egregious, money-grubbing and immoral class in America today: retirees.

Now hold on...before you start sending hate mail my way, keep in mind, I'm not talking about all retirees.

No, there's a very special group who exhibit some of the most disgusting behavior I have ever seen, even though they are technically not breaking the law.

Let me show you an example of what I mean...

The Man With 10 Jobs

Bellwood, Illinois is a small, mostly black residential suburb of about 20,000 people, located just south of O'Hare Airport.

It's about a 15-mile commute straight east to downtown Chicago.

The median salary in Bellwood is $57,000 a year, according to recent census reports.

When I did a recent search on the Zillow real estate website, I found just over 300 houses listed for sale in Bellwood right now.

Just one of these homes is listed at a price higher than $200,000, and only 12 are listed above $100,000.

In other words, this is not a particularly wealthy place. But the little town of Bellwood made news recently

when a story came out in the Chicago Tribune about a local, white offi cial named Roy McCampbell.

You see, for running this little suburb West of Chicago, Mr. McCampbell made an astonishing amount of money.

In his fi nal year before retirement, McCampbell pulled in a whopping $472,255.

How did he make so much—more than any other municipal executive in the entire state of Illinois?

Well, according to McCampbell, he did the work of 10 people for Bellwood. This is great, comical really. Let me show you the list of jobs McCampbell claims to have done:

Comptroller, administrator, public safety CEO, fi nance director, budget director, human resources director, mayoral assistant, corporation counsel, property commission director and development cor-poration offi cer.

But hold on... it gets better... As part of his contract, McCampbell was allowed

FIVE MONTHS worth of sick days each year, starting in May of 2008.

Yes, you read that correctly... he got FIVE MONTHS worth of sick days every single year.

And because it's completely impossible for anyone to take fi ve months of sick days in a year, especially when you are doing the jobs of 10 people!, McCampbell was able to get paid for many of the sick days he never took.

This brought his salary up to close to half a million dollars a year.

When asked about his pay, McCampbell told the Tribune, "I didn't hold a gun to any body's head to get this. I'm not trying to do anything bad."

What kind of world do we live in where neither this guy, nor any of the other local offi cials who approved this contract, see a problem with this situation?

Welcome to Corruption, USAwritten by porter stansberry

Welcome to Corruption, USA

PRISONPLANET.COM

And wait... there’s still more... McCampbell also was given a free car and free gas

all paid by the taxpayers, who also covered his pre-miums for health and life insurance, as well as his pension contributions.

Asked by the Tribune if he ever felt like he was being overpaid, McCampbell told the paper, "I truly didn't."

And to top it all off, taxpayers are still not done pay-ing Mr. McCampbell.

Because of salary bumps, bonuses and cashing out his unpaid sick leave, McCampbell was able to dramatically increase his fi nal year's pay, which in turn gives him a pension estimated to be as high as $264,000 a year.

McCampbell, who was 55 years old when he retired, could conceivably live another 30 years or more, which could make his infl ated pension worth nearly $8 million.

And don't forget, he didn't contribute a single penny towards his pension—that was also covered by the taxpayers.

Unfortunately, in America today, there are Roy McCampbells in every state, town, municipality and in every level of government.

The $5 Million Tollbooth Worker

Maybe you heard about the tollbooth worker from New York whose average salary was $70,000 a year. Believe it or not, that's not the absurd part of this story, although that in and of itself is pretty amazing.

What’s remarkable about this tollbooth worker is how he was able to legally steal millions from taxpayers in the coming years.

What this fellow did was work tons of overtime and cash in dozens of sick days, which more than doubled his fi nal year's salary to $150,000.

Because his pension is based on his last year of work, this guy will get a pension of $120,000 a year for the rest of his life! That's 71 percent more than his highest year of regular pay.

He's only 50 years old, which means taxpayers could easily be on the hook for $5 million or more in total.

And like I said, these stories are the “new normal” in what I call “Corruption USA,” where it’s all about taking as much as possible, even if you didn’t earn it and don’t deserve it.

The exact same thing is going on in every state, in every county and in every municipality of America today.

We have state-funded janitors, fi refi ghters, cops, may-ors, council members, administrators, etc. who are retir-ing as early as possible (some in their mid-40s), setting themselves up for payouts of millions of dollars for the rest of their lives, because of outrageous public pensions.

In my mind, this "pension padding" is the exact same thing as stealing. You are taking money you didn't earn and don't deserve.

And it happens at every level of government, starting at the top.

USA Today recently did a study on how various legis-lators around the country pad their fi nal year's salary, and thus their pension:

"Kentucky legislators add their annual allowance for stationery—up to $1,500 for senators and $750 for House members—plus another $15,000 to $17,000 a year in expense payments to the salary on which pen-sions are based. Connecticut lawmakers can increase their pensions up to 50 percent by including mileage reimbursements that add as much as $15,500 a year to the salaries used to calculate their pensions."

So the new normal is for government employees to pad their fi nal year salaries, then retire early, often on pensions fattened by gaming the corrupt system.

It's a complete disgrace and another prime example of what I call “The Corruption of America.”

There’s no doubt that something has gone terribly wrong in our country.

Something has corrupted our society in a profound way, to the point where most people in our coun-try think it's normal to defraud the government, or refuse to pay their debts, or even steal from their employers or shareholders.

In fact, I’d go so far as to say that almost every prob-lem we face today is really only a refl ection of the more important things our country has lost—like our sense of honor, humility and the dedication to personal respon-sibility, which made America the greatest hope for man-kind for more than 200 years.

As America’s engineered economic implo-sion accelerates, the parallels with how the Roman empire fell are staggering. It is now abundantly clear that the ruling class is pre-

paring for a planned economic implosion after which they will declare themselves the saviors.

A recent Reuters report highlighting how the Federal Reserve has been telling major banks in the U.S. to prepare for a “worst case scenario” fi nancial collapse and that these banks would not be able to rely on gov-ernment support underscores once again how the elite are positioning themselves to exploit the next leg of the orchestrated fi nancial meltdown.

Just as happened in the aftermath of 2008, the rul-ing class is getting ready to offer the solution of more centralized control and more fi nancial serfdom as the solution to the problem they created in the fi rst place.

By making the public and industry beg for QE3, the Federal Reserve will once again try to manipulate the crisis to portray itself as the guardian of a fragile sys-tem and accumulate yet more power.

America is now ruled by a gaggle of completely corrupt fi nancial terrorists who will stop at nothing to hollow out the country in pursuit of their own maniacal and selfi sh gain.

This precisely parallels Rome’s rapacious ruling Emperors and Senators of the fi fth century who were so obsessed with seizing wealth and control that they ended up destroying their own culture, their own coun-try and its empire in the process.

Just as in Rome, while the ruling elite got fi lthy rich, the people struggled and starved.

More than 100 million Americans are now on gov-ernment welfare, a third of the entire country, and that fi gure doesn’t even include Social Security or Medicare.

22.3 million households and 46.5 million Americans

have now entered technical poverty and live off food stamps.

Just as in Rome, where the need to constantly gener-ate revenue to satisfy the cost of defense and a sprawl-ing bureaucracy ultimately led to the country becoming bankrupt as Nero and subsequently emperors hiked up taxes and debased the currency, America is hurtling towards a similar fate.

Entitlement spending, military defense and a bloated federal bureaucracy has left the United States almost $16 trillion dollars in debt, and the prospect of QE3 threatens to sink the dollar as the world reserve currency for good.

Just as Romans found their currency becoming increasingly worthless, the U.S. dollar has lost almost 100 per cent of its value since 1900.

Just like Rome, America was once a Republic that has been hijacked and turned into an empire. Just as the Roman Empire crumbled under its rulers’ inability to afford its maintenance, America’s overseas presence (the U.S. has troops in a staggering 130 countries), is bankrupting the country.

Like America, Rome once had an infl uential middle class whose wealth allowed them to have a political stake in their country. Merchants and traders were able to prosper because taxes were modest and economic regulation was relaxed. However, beginning in the third century B.C., the Roman economy became more regimented and taxes were raised. This eviscerated and disenfranchised the middle class, just as has unfolded in America, where middle class neighborhoods are disappearing and income is polarized between a strug-gling downtrodden mass of people and a tiny rich elite.

When the economic collapse arrives, it could be more brutal than anything America has experienced in its history as a nation.

Consider the fact that during the ten years of the

1929 Great Depression, some 8 million Americans starved to death. And this at a time when 90 per cent of the population lived in rural areas and were at least somewhat self-suffi cient. That number is now 50 per cent and many people who live outside major cities are not self-suffi cient in any way.

Aside from economic factors, cultural and societal parallels can also be drawn between Rome and 21st century America.

Rome’s increasing use of illegal immigrants to do agricultural work its host population refused to under-take mirrors America in 2012. As Peter Heather writes in The Fall of the Roman Empire: A New History of Rome and Barbarians, “The Roman government allowed uncontrolled hostile immigration to dissolve the fabric of their civilization. Illegal and legal Immigrants grew more powerful while exercising their own character of their cultures. They did not adopt Roman ways. Second, vast blocks of once Roman lands became foreign held and even the Roman population, once outnumbered, was no match for hostile immigrants.”

“Factors that destroyed Rome now manifest in accelerating numbers in America. Los Angeles, Miami, Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, New York City, San Francisco, Raleigh and all large cities suffer millions of illegal immigrants. Uncounted millions of them cannot and do not speak English. Millions work under the table without paying taxes. Millions use our hospitals with-out paying. They immigrate but do not assimilate. They colonize in ethnic enclaves separated from Americans. They fracture our country,” writes Frosty Wooldridge.

Just as Roman rulers created bread and circuses to distract their population from the fact that the coun-try was collapsing, Americans are also enraptured by entertainment and sports, which in turn encourages them to lead superfi cial, meaningless lives.

As Roman poet Juvenal (circa 100 A.D.) wrote,

sexual promiscuity and infi delity is lauded. As Dr. Carle Zimmerman’s 1947 book Family and Civilization docu-mented, America shares the pattern of its moral decline with Rome. Zimmerman identifi ed a number of behav-ior traits that signaled the decline of a civilization. These included “the breakdown of marriage and rise of divorce,” “acceleration of juvenile delinquency, promis-cuity and rebellion,” “refusal of people with traditional marriages to accept their family responsibilities,” “a growing desire for and acceptance of adultery” and “increasing interest in and spread of sexual perversions and sex-related crimes.”

All of these traits have come to shape American soci-ety in the 21st century.

It does not take a crystal ball to see where all this is heading, and the planned economic implosion is going to be the trigger. Europe has already been rocked by riots over the past two years and federal authorities are already preparing for similar scenes in America only on a far bigger scale.

As Ron Paul has warned, the coming engineered fi nan-cial breakdown is leading directly to domestic unrest which will inevitably lead to a state of martial law.

Riots prompted by food shortages, infl ation, inequal-ity and political corruption are inevitable should the ruling class continue to deliberately implode the econ-omy – as is the brutal police state response that will come as a result.

Just as Rome burned when it was sacked in 455AD, the historical point which marked the formal end of the Roman Empire, America faces the same fate.

The only way to prevent or try to lessen the kind of collapse that could make the dissolution of Rome look like a cakewalk is to use the tools that ordinary Romans never had – the power of the modern alternative media.

Only by relentlessly emphasizing that the collapse is being deliberately engineered by those who seek to exploit it for their own gain can we hope to defl ate the myth that the ruling class are our only saviors in the coming time of peril.

“Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the People have abdicated our duties; for the People who once upon a time handed out military command, high civil offi ce, legions–everything, now restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread and circuses.”

This loss of interest in civic duty and its replacement with an obsession for entertainment and folly is rou-tinely cited by scholars as one of the primary reasons behind the collapse of Rome.

As Kyle Trottier writes, “In many modern books written about Ancient Rome and her people, the ancient Romans are often portrayed as people who enjoyed violence and thought it amusing to see peo-ple being injured and killed to the point of obsession. It is now common knowledge that, in Ancient Rome, people often attended (and enjoyed) gladiatorial fi ghts to the death, wild beast hunts, naval battles and chariot racing. Some public thinkers today have sug-gested that “entertainment” today, as it was in ancient times of Rome, refl ects the decline of culture, into a plethora of lust, greed, violence, selfi sh individualism and bad behavior. Some Scholars suggest that history is repeating itself and we are now in a reoccurring cycle of moral decay and social breakdown. From the excessive amount of glorifi ed violence in Hollywood movies, video games, music and on the Internet, one can easily see the downward spiral of decency.”

The moral decay of the Roman culture is also being aped almost precisely in America. While fertility and birth rates of the host population continue to plummet,

broke out. Three weeks later, early on the morning of February 15, an explo-sion destroyed the forward third of the ship anchored in Havana's harbor, killing more than 270 American sailors.

President McKinley blamed Spain after the U.S. Naval Court of Inquiry declared that a naval mine caused the explosion.

American newspapers blamed the Spanish despite a lack of evidence. “You furnish the pictures and I'll furnish the war,” newspaper tycoon William Randolph Hearst told Frederic Remington after the illustrator reported that the sit-uation in Cuba did not warrant invasion.

A number of historians and researchers later argued that the ship was blown up by the United States to provide a false fl ag pretext to invade Cuba and expel Spain.

The United States occupied Cuba from 1898 until 1902, although an amendment to a joint resolution of Congress forbid the U.S. to annex the country.

Wilson's Pretext for War: The Sinking of the Lusitania

Nearly two thousand travelers, includ-ing one hundred Americans, were killed on May 7, 1915, when a German U-boat torpedoed the RMS Lusitania, a luxury Cunard Line British ocean liner.

Prior to the sinking, the German embassy in Washington issued a warning. Newspapers in the United States refused to print the warning or acknowledge the German claim that the ship carried munitions.

Wilson's government issued a fl urry of diplomatic protests after the sinking and exploited the tragedy two years

False fl ag attacks occur when government engages in covert operations designed to deceive the public in such a way that the

operations seem as if they are being car-ried out by other entities.

False fl ag terrorism is a favorite political tactic used by governments worldwide. They infl uence elections, guide national and international policy, and are cyni-cally used to formulate propaganda and shape public opinion as nations go to war.

Nero and the Great Fire of RomeLegend claims Nero had one-third of the city torched as an excuse to build Domus Aurea, a 300 acre palatial complex that included a towering statue of himself, the Colossus of Nero.

Prior to the fi re, the Roman Senate had rejected the emperor’s bid to level a third of the city to make way for a “Neropolis,” an urban renewal project.

The Roman historian Tacitus wrote that when the population of Rome held Nero responsible for the fi re, he shifted blame on the Christians for “hating the human race” and starting the fi re.

The Spanish American War: Remember the Maine

By the late 1800s, the United States was looking for an excuse to kick Spain out of Cuba. U.S. business was heavily invested in sugar, tobacco and iron on the Caribbean island.

The U.S.S. Maine was sent to Havana in January of 1898 to protect these busi-ness interests after a local insurrection

later as a pretext for America to enter the First World War.

Nearly a hundred years later, in 2008, divers discovered the Lusitania carried more than four million rounds of rif le ammunition.

“There were literally tons and tons of stuff stored in unrefrigerated cargo holds that were dubiously marked cheese, butter and oysters,” Gregg Bemis, an American businessman who owns the rights to the wreck and is funding its exploration, told The Daily Mail.

Hitler's Fascist Dictatorship: The Reichstag Fire

In February of 1933, a month after con-vincing Germany's president that parlia-ment must be eliminated, Hitler and the Nazis instigated the Reichstag fi re.

Hitler then urged president Hindenburg to issue an emergency decree restricting personal liberty, including the right to free expression and a free press, lim-itations on the rights of association and assembly, warrantless searches of homes, property confi scation, and violations of postal, telegraphic and telephonic com-munications “permissible beyond the legal limits otherwise prescribed.”

The Nazis used the decree and cracked down on their political opponents . They worked behind the scenes to force through the Enabling Act, which legally allowed Hitler to obtain plenary powers and establish a dictatorship.

Gestapo Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring would admit that “the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do

is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifi sts for lack of patrio-tism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.”

Prelude to World War: The Gleiwitz Incident

Six years after the Reichstag Fire, the Nazis staged the Gleiwitz incident. Nazi commandos raided a German radio station in Gleiwitz, Upper Silesia, Germany. The raid was part of Operation Himmler, a series of oper-ations undertaken by the SS as Hitler set the stage for the invasion of Poland and the start of the Second World War.

SS operatives dressed in Polish uni-forms attacked the radio station, broad-cast an anti-German message in Polish, and left behind the body of a German Silesian known for sympathizing with the Poles. The corpse was then offered to the press as evidence that the Poles had attacked the radio station.

Israeli False Flag Terror: The Lavon Aff air

In 1954, the Israelis activated a terror-ist cell in response to the United States making friends with the Egyptian gov-ernment and its pan-Arab leader, Gamal Abdel Nasser. The Israelis were worried Nasser would nationalize the Suez Canal and continue Egypt's blockade of Israeli shipping through the canal.

Israeli Prime Minister David Ben Gurion decided a false fl ag terrorist attack on American interests in Egypt would sour the new relationship. He recruited and dispatched a terror cell

fact, North Vietnam had not attacked the USS Maddox, as the Pentagon claimed, and the "unequivocal proof" of an "unprovoked" second attack against the U.S. warship was a ruse.

Operation Gladio: State Sponsored Terror Blamed on the

LeftFollowing the Second World War,

the CIA and Britain's MI6 collaborated through NATO on Operation Gladio, an effort to create a “stay behind army” to fi ght communism in the event of a Soviet invasion of Western Europe.

Gladio quickly transcended its orig-inal mission and became a covert ter-ror network consisting of right-wing militias, organized crime elements, agents provocateurs and secret mili-tary units. The so-called stay behind armies were active in France, Belgium, Denmark, The Netherlands, Norway, Germany, and Switzerland.

Gladio's “Strategy of Tension” was designed to portray leftist political groups in Europe as terrorists and frighten the populace into voting for authoritarian governments. In order to carry out this goal, Gladio operatives conducted a num-ber of deadly terrorists attacks that were blamed on leftists and Marxists.

In August of 1980, Gladio operatives bombed a train station in Bologna, killing 85 people. Initially blamed on the Red Brigades, it was later discov-ered that fascist elements within the Italian secret police and Licio Gelli, the head of the P2 Masonic Lodge, were responsible for the terror attack. Other fascist groups, including Avanguardia Nazionale and Ordine Nuovo, were mobilized and engaged in terror.

Operation Gladio ultimately claimed the lives of hundreds of people across Europe.

According to Vincenzo Vinciguerra, a Gladio terrorist serving a life-sen-tence for murdering policemen, the reason for Gladio was simple. It was designed “to force these people, the Italian public, to turn to the state to ask for greater security. This is the political logic that lies behind all the massacres and the bombings which remain unpunished, because the state cannot convict itself or declare itself responsible for what happened.”

that pretended to be Egyptian terrorists. The plan, however, contained a fatal

fl aw. Israel's top secret cell, Unit 131, was infi ltrated by Egyptian intelligence. After a member of the cell was arrested and interrogated, he revealed the plot and this led to more arrests. Israeli agents were subjected to a public trial revealing details of the plan to fi rebomb the U.S. Information Agency's libraries, a British-owned Metro-Goldwyn Mayer theatre, a railway terminal, the central post offi ce, and other targets.

In order to defl ect blame, the Israeli government tried to frame its own Defense Minister, Pinhas Lavon, but the true nature of the plot was eventually made public.

Operation Northwoods: Targeting American CitizensIn the covert war against the communist

regime in Cuba under the CIA's Operation Mongoose, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff unanimously proposed state-sponsored acts of terrorism in side the United States.

The plan included shooting down hijacked American airplanes, the sink-ing of U.S. ships, and the shooting of Americans on the streets of Washington, D.C. The outrageous plan even included a staged NASA disaster that would claim the life of astronaut John Glenn.

Reeling under the embarrassing failure of the CIA's botched Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba, president Kennedy rejected the plan in March of 1962. A few months later, Kennedy denied the plan's author, General Lyman Lemnitzer, a second term as the nation's highest ranking military offi cer.

In November of 1963, Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas.

Gulf of Tonkin: Phantom Attack on the U.S.

MilitaryOn August 4, 1964, President Lyndon

Johnson went on national television and told the nation that North Vietnam had attacked U.S. ships.

"Repeated acts of violence against the armed forces of the United States must be met not only with alert defense, but with a positive reply. That reply is being given as I speak tonight,” Johnson declared.

Congress soon passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which provided Johnson with pre-approved authority to conduct mil-itary operations against North Vietnam. By 1969, over 500,000 troops were fi ght-ing in Southeast Asia.

to the National Post article “Colorado shooting suspect James Holmes was seeing university psychiatrist”.

Psychiatrists and psychologists have been involved in developing torture techniques for the CIA, so to believe in their “professionalism” and “morality” is blind foolishness. We live in an age of moral bankruptcy and mass mind control. Professional psychologists help the government in many ways, from lending their expertise to improve the mental conditioning of the public to performing outlandish research on government subjects, mostly from the military and universities.

The U.S. shadow government’s love affair with patsies has really gotten out of hand. Oswald was only a prototype. Washington has created an extraordi-nary league of shadow patsies. Holmes could be the next-generation model of mind control assassins; the T-1000 of government patsies.

Paul Joseph Watson describes the sim-ilarities between Holmes and another manufactured patsy in his article, “James Holmes Is Behaving Like Sirhan Sirhan,” writing:

“The parallels between alleged Colorado shooter James Holmes and Sirhan Sirhan are staggering. Both appear to have been drugged, both cannot remember the shootings they were accused of carrying out, and in both cases other shooters were reported by eyewitnesses.”

It is super convenient that individuals who are connected to some of the big-gest crimes in U.S. history are mentally incapacitated at the moment the crime is committed and never seem to remem-ber pulling the trigger in the days and weeks after the event.

the 1968 assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. Attorney and author William F. Pepper represented the King family.

After the 30-day trial was over, the jury concluded that Martin Luther King Jr.’s death was caused by a government conspiracy, not a lone gunman. The gov-ernment’s version of King’s murder was proven to be fake. A citizen jury legally put to death the myth of the “lone gun-man” that has overshadowed America’s recent political history.

Fast forward to the year 2012. The “lone gunmen” of the world are being manufactured by the mind control technicians in the U.S. deep state like microchips. The secret “manu-facture-a-patsy” government industry has become so advanced and sophisti-cated that it has enabled the hijacked U.S. government to get away with the most atrocious of crimes against the American people and humanity.

Whenever a state crime is committed by the deep state a patsy mysteriously rises to the surface from the shadows.

There is disturbing evidence that sug-gests the “Dark Knight” shooter James Holmes is a shadow patsy who was involved in a secret government mind control program. He was catapulted onto the scene of the crime in the Colorado movie theater after professional gov-ernment killers fi nished off massacring movie goers in the dark of night.

One of the most startling pieces of evidence is that Holmes was under the stewardship of an ex-government psychiatrist named Dr. Lynne Fenton, who is currently the “medical direc-tor for student mental health services at the University of Colorado-Denver Anschutz Medical Campus,” according

President attack the legitimacy of gun rights and the honored American tradi-tion of self-defense.

Kurt Nimmo examines the bipartisan war on American gun ownership in his article, “Establishment Media Circles the Wagons on Gun Control.” He writes:

“The highly suspicious mass shoot-ing in Colorado arrived at exactly the right time for the globalists and their corporate media scriveners. Outlawing semi-automatic weapons with brand spanking new assault weapons legisla-tion will now take center stage and will be used as a stepping stone for more dra-conian legislation down the road.”

The dangerous path to all-out gun con-fi scation begins with government brain-washing and media propaganda that gain steam after ritualistic events like the “Dark Knight” shooting. The fascist tyrants begin with baby steps, as always, but their sight remains on their larger goal: instituting a global totalitarian regime run by criminal private interna-tional banks and corporations.

For this dangerous and tyrannical goal to be realized the American people must fi rst be disarmed.

Bank Cartel Conquers AmericaBanksters Declare We're All Slaves in Their Plot to Destroy the US Economy

written by Alex Jones and Paul Joseph Watson

In a recent CNBC clip, fi nancial analysts admitted to viewers that America is under the control of a group of central bankers who are building a world govern-ment. The clip is a damning insight into how the establishment has dispensed without any pretense of trying to hide their agenda as it is fi nalized.

During the video, the host asks guests, “Do we all work for central bankers – is this global governance at last – is it one world – the central bankers in charge….aren’t we all just living and dying for what the central banks do?”

“To answer your question, we are absolutely slaves to central banks,” responds the guest.

“We beholden to what central bankers and policy makers do rather than the fundamentals in the economy,” adds another.

This is just one of a deluge of examples where it is now being thrown in our faces that a banking elite is building a world government at the expense of the American people.

From treating the issue as a “conspiracy theory” for decades, the estab-lishment is now tearing away the veil in an effort to force Americans to blithely accept what has been planned all along.

A global government is now being forcefully pushed as the “solution” to all manner of problems, but specifi cally in relation to fi nancial crises. We are being brainwashed to accept the premise that centralized power in the hands of a tiny elite is the only recourse, and that a one world currency is inevitable.

At the height of the last economic crisis, Bilderberg member and Financial Times columnist Gideon Rachman argued that “everything is in place” for a dictatorial world government to be imposed by a technocratic elite.

Rachman’s 2008 call for authoritarian technocrats to be put in charge of the global economy in preparation for the offi cial birth of global government is now well on its way to com-pletion, with the economies of France, Ireland, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Greece, along with the IMF and the European Central Bank (ECB), all under Goldman Sachs banker

occupation.

These technocrats have not been bashful in openly announcing what they are doing.Upon his selection to become EU president in 2009, Herman Van Rompuy

announced that the fi nancial crisis and efforts to combat global warming were designed to precede “the global management of our planet.” He also declared 2009 to be “the fi rst year of global governance.”

In the same year, Van Rompuy was joined by the Pope who also called for a “world political authority” to manage the global economy.

World Bank President and Bilderberg elitist Robert Zoellick also openly admitted the plan to elim- inate national sovereignty and

impose a global government during a speech on the eve of the G20

summit.Calls for a one world cur-rency to be a key compo-nent of global governance

have been consistent.In a 2000 speech, a member

of the executive board of the European Central Bank, Sirkka Hämäläinen

stated, “In conclusion, I should like to come back to Paul Volcker’s prophecy. He might be right, and

we might one day have a single world currency. Maybe European integration, in the same way as

any other regional integration, could be seen as a step towards the ideal situation of a fully integrated

world.”In a 2010 speech to the Council of Foreign Relations, for-

mer president of the ECB Jean-Claude Trichet made it clear that the Global Economy Meeting (GEM), which meets at the BIS (Bank of International Settlements) headquarters in Basel would “become the prime group for global governance among

central banks.”Trichet added that the BIS meetings were ensuring that “the system

is moving decisively towards genuine global governance.”Trichet went on to defi ne how global governance would

operate.“There are numerous defi nitions of global gover-

nance. In the economic and fi nancial sphere I will propose that global governance

comprehends not only the con-stellation of supranational

institutions – including the

while using “global redistribution of wealth” and increased immigration to reinvigorate the pursuit of a one world government.

Bureaucrats at the 2011 UN Climate Summit in Durban outlined plans for the most draconian, harebrained and madcap climate change treaty ever produced, under which the West would be mandated to respect “the rights of Mother Earth” by paying a “climate debt” which would act as a slush fund for bankrolling an all-powerful world government.

Earlier this year a Scientifi c American article entitled “Effective World Government Will Be Needed to Stave Off Climate Catastrophe” argued that global management of the planet was the only means of combating global warming.

international fi nancial institutions – but also the informal groupings that have progressively emerged at the global level. Those informal forums (G7, G10, G20, etc.) are key in improving global coordination in all the areas where decision making processes remain national – whether in helping to work out agreed prudential standards and codes or to facilitate where appropriate, the coordination of economic macro-policies,” he said.

Numerous other members of the political establishment have openly expressed the agenda to create global government, not only in response to the fi nancial crisis but also as an answer to man-made climate change.

In 2009, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon admitted that carbon taxes levied in the name of abating global warming would be col-lected by a world body.

“We will establish a global governance structure to monitor and manage the implementation of this,” he stated.

In a New York Times editorial entitled “We Can Do It,” Ki-moon also wrote that efforts to impose restrictions on CO2 emissions “must include an equitable global governance structure.”

Fellow globalist and environmentalist David De Mayer Rothschild also disclosed the agenda for global governance in an interview with Bloomberg news.

“It’s past the point of talking. We know historically that the global gov-ernance sort of agenda to these issues is very hard to… with all the best intentions it’s very hard to actually activate,” Rothschild noted.

Similarly, Al Gore said in a 2009 speech that attempts to regulate CO2 emis-sions would be driven through “global governance and global agreements.”

A 2010 UN blueprint for putting the organization back at the forefront of global governance alarmingly revealed the agenda to rebrand global warming as “overpopulation” as a means of dismantling the middle classes,

Although the agenda for global government is now bearing its teeth with little regard for subtleness, the following quotes stretching back over decades prove that the plan has been long in the works:

David Rockefeller “We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and their great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.”

Jacques Chirac“For the fi rst time, humanity is instituting a genuine instrument of global governance...By acting together, by building this unprecedented instrument, the fi rst component of an authentic global governance, we are working for dialogue and peace.”

George Papandreou, former Prime Minister of Greece“This is global governance in the making. But we must agree, and agree to a binding commitment.”

Walter Cronkite“Pat Robertson has written in a book a few years ago that we should have a world government, but only when the Messiah arrives. He wrote, literally, any attempt to achieve world order before that time must be the work of the devil. Well, join me. I’m glad to sit here at the right hand of Satan.”

L berty Lovers Listed As terrorists by

homeland security Americans Who Are 'Suspicious of Centralized Federal Authority,

Reverent of Individual Liberty' Deemed Domestic Threatwritten by Paul Joseph Watson

A new study funded by the Department of Homeland Security characterizes Americans who are “suspicious of central-ized federal authority” and “reverent of

individual liberty” as “extreme right-wing” terrorists.Entitled "Hot Spots of Terrorism and Other

Crimes in the United States, 1970-2008", the study was produced by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism at the University of Maryland. The organization was launched with the aid of Department of Homeland Security funding to the tune of $12 million.

While largely omitting Islamic terrorism – the report fails completely to mention the 1993 World Trade Center bombing – the study instead focuses on Americans who hold beliefs shared by the vast major-ity of conservatives and libertarians and puts them in the context of radical extremism.

The report takes its definitions from a 2011 study entitled “Profiles of Perpetrators of Terrorism,” produced by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism, in which the following characteristics are used to identify terrorists.

- Americans who believe their “way of life” is under attack;

- Americans who are “fiercely nationalistic (as opposed to universal and international in orientation)”;

- People who consider themselves “anti-global” (pre-sumably those who are wary of the loss of American sovereignty);

- Americans who are “suspicious of centralized fed-eral authority”;

- Americans who are “reverent of individual liberty”;

- People who “believe in conspiracy theories that involve grave threat to national sovereignty and/or personal liberty.”

The report also lists people opposed to abortion and “groups that seek to smite the purported enemies of

God and other evildoers” as terrorists.As we have exhaustively documented on numer-

ous occasions, federal authorities and particularly the Department of Homeland Security have been involved in producing a deluge of literature which portrays liberty lovers and small government advo-cates as terrorists.

The most flagrant example was the infamous 2009 report published by the Missouri Information Analysis Center and first revealed by Infowars, which framed Ron Paul supporters, libertarians, people who display bumper stickers, people who own gold, or even people who fly a U.S. flag, as potential terrorists.

The rush to denounce legitimate political beliefs as thought crimes, or even mundane behaviors by insin-uating they are shared by terrorists, has accelerated in recent months.

Under the FBI’s Communities Against Terrorism program, the bulk purchase of food is labeled as a potential indication of terrorist activity, as is using cash to pay for a cup of coffee and showing an interest in web privacy when using the Internet in a public place.

As we have documented on numerous occasions, the federal government routinely characterizes mundane behavior as extremist activity or a potential indicator of terrorist intent. As part of its See Something, Say Something campaign, the Department of Homeland Security educates the public that generic activities performed by millions of people every day, including using a video camera, talking to police officers, wear-ing hoodies, driving vans, writing on a piece of paper, and using a cell phone recording application,” are all potential signs of terrorist activity.

The Department of Homeland Security stoked con-troversy last year when it released a series of videos to promote the See Something, Say Something cam-paign in which almost all of the terrorists portrayed in the PSAs were white Americans.

The State Department has an office that hunts German war criminals. Bureaucracies being what they are, the office will exist into next cen-tury when any surviving German prison guards

will be 200 years old. From time to time the State Department claims to have

found a lowly German soldier who was assigned as a prison camp guard. The ancient personage, who had lived in the U.S. for the past 50 or 60 years without doing harm to anyone, is then merciless persecuted, usually on the basis of hearsay. I have never understood what the State Department thinks the alleged prison guard was supposed to have done–freed the prisoners, resign his position?–when Prussian aristocrats, high-ranking German Army generals and Field Marshall and national hero Erwin Rommel were murdered for trying to overthrow Hitler.

What the State Department needs is an office that rounds up American war criminals.

They are in abundance and not hard to find. Indeed, recently 56 of them made themselves public by signing a letter to President Obama demanding that he send in the U.S. Army to complete the destruction of Syria and its people that Washington has begun.

At the Nuremberg Trials of the defeated Germans after World War II, the U.S. .government established the principle that naked aggression–the American way in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Pakistan and Yemen–is a war crime. Therefore, there is a very strong precedent for the State Department to round up those neoconservatives who are fomenting more war crimes.

But don’t expect it to happen. Today, war criminals run the State Department and the entire U.S. government. They are elected to the presidency, the House, and the Senate and appointed to the federal courts as judges. American soldiers, such as Bradley Manning, who behave as the State Department expects German soldiers to have behaved, are not honored, but are thrown into dungeons and tortured while a court-martial case is con-cocted against them.

Hypocrisy is Washington’s hallmark, and all but the most delusional are now accustomed to their rulers speak-ing one way and behaving in the opposite. It is now part of the American character to regard ourselves as members of the “virtuous nation,” “the indispensable people,” while our rulers commit war crimes around the globe.

Whereas we have all been made complicit in war crimes by “our” government, it still behooves us to know

The Neoconservative War Criminal In Our Midstwritten by Paul craig roberts

who are the active war criminals in our midst, who have burdened us with our war criminal reputation.

You can learn the identity of many of those who are driv-ing the world into World War Three, while their policies result in the murder of large numbers of Arabs and Muslims in Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, Somalia, Pakistan, Yemen, Iraq and Lebanon, by perusing the signatures to the con-trived letter to Obama from the neoconservatives, calling on Obama to invade Syria in order to “rescue” the Syrian people from their government.

According the letter signed by 56 neoconservatives, only the Syrian government is responsible for deaths in Syria. The Washington sponsored and armed “rebels” are merely protecting the Syrian people from the Assad government. According to the letter signers, the only way the Syrian peo-ple can be saved is if Washington overthrows the Syrian gov-ernment and installs a puppet state, attentive to the needs of Israel and Washington.

Among the 56 signatures are a few names from the Syrian National Congress, believed to be a CIA front, and a few names from dupes among the goyim. The rest of the sig-natures are those of Jewish neoconservatives tightly allied with Israel, some of whom are apparently dual-Israeli citi-zens who participate in the formation of U.S. foreign policy. The names on this list comprise a concentration of evil, the goal of which is not only to bring armageddon to the Syrian people but also to the world.

The letter to Obama is part of the propaganda operation to demonize the Syrian government with lies in order to get rid of a government that supports Hezbollah, the Muslims in southern Lebanon who have twice driven the vaunted, but cowardly, Israeli army out of Lebanon, thus preventing the Israeli government from achieving its aim of stealing the water resources of southern Lebanon.

Not a single sentence in the letter is correct. Listen to this one for example, “The Assad regime poses a grave threat to national security interests of the United States.” What utter total absurdity, and the morons who signed the letter pre-tend to be “security experts.”

How do we evaluate the fact that 56 people have no shame whatsoever and will lie to the president of the United States, telling him to his face the most absurd and obvious false things in order to advance their personal agenda at the expense of not merely the lives of Syrians but, by leading to wider war, of life on earth?

This same neocon architects of armageddon are also work-ing against Iran, Russia, the former Soviet central Asian countries, Ukraine, Belarus and China. It seems that they can’t wait to start a nuclear war.

Between April and June, according to statistics released by the Senate Budget Committee, more Americans went on Social

Security disability than found jobs.According to fi gures released by the

committee, a total of 246,000 people enrolled in the Social Security Disability Insurance program while during the same period 225,000 found jobs.

In May, the Social Security Administration reported that more than 10 million people, who are not counted among the unemployed, received disability benefi ts at an annual rate of about $130 billion.

Social Security Disability Insurance is a federal payroll tax-funded insurance program designed to provide supplemental income to physically disabled Americans. More than 150 million workers are currently insured by the federal program through FICA taxes.

Senator Jeff Sessions, the ranking Republican on the budget panel, said that since 2008 and the onset of the latest economic recession, 3.6 million Americans have gone on disability and 1.3 million have lost jobs.

“Amazingly, while fewer Americans are working than at the end of 2008, 3.6 million Americans have been awarded

SSDI benefi ts over the same period. The growing number of people on disability and other federal benefi ts, combined with weak economic growth, raises serious concerns about the sustainability of the American economy,” said the Alabama senator.

“It is clear there is a great need to distinguish between proper and improper disability claims, and to better incentivize and fi nd acceptable work for those who are able. Today only 1 percent of Social Security disability recipients ever return to work. The administration of this program must be improved to avoid sinking our country deeper into debt, to ensure the program remains viable for those with disabilities, and to protect Social Security itself.”

On July 11, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a seasonally adjusted unemployment rate of 8.2 percent.

However, according to John Williams "Shadow Government Statistics" website, the real unemployment rate is closer to 22 percent. Williams' methodology for determining the real unemployment rate includes long-term discouraged workers who are removed from the category of those considered unemployed, a bookkeeping trick instituted by the Clinton administration

in 1994 to make unemployment appear lower than it actually is.

Others argue the unemployment rate is closer to 15 percent, or double the offi cial fi gure. They cite the U6 rate, which tracks Americans out of work and also those who have given up looking for work. According to Aparna Mathur, a resident scholar and economist at the American Enterprise Institute, the offi cial Labor Department fi gure leaves out a lot of people who have just given up. The U6 rate, Mathur explains, includes all of those people who are too discouraged to look for work... If you are unemployed and you have not been looking for work in the previous four weeks than you are not considered part of the offi cial unemployed.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that when Obama was sworn into offi ce in January 2009, there were 2.6 million people unemployed for more than six months. As the recession turned into a full-blown depression, the ranks of the long term unemployed increased more than a 100 percent to 5.3 million by June 2012. There are fewer Americans working today than in 2000 despite the fact the population has increased by 31 million and the labor force has increased by 11.4 million.

During a July campaign stop, Obama criticized small businesses despite the fact they are the engine of job creation in the United States. According to data released by Automatic Data Processing, Inc., of the 216,000 new jobs created in February of this year, more than half or 108,000 were created by businesses with 49 or fewer employees. The 88,000 new jobs created by companies with 50 to 499 employees brings the total of new jobs from small businesses for February to 90 percent, The Daily Times notes.

The following month, as the economy continued to worsen, a mere 120,000 jobs were added to the economy, the smallest increase since last October, according to offi cial fi gures. At the time, economists forecasted nonfarm employment to rise by 203,000. Analysts struggled to put the best face on the dismal numbers by citing a decrease in unemployment numbers from 8.3 percent to 8.2 percent, a minuscule, at best, drop.

The decrease, however, was not attributed to new jobs, but discouraged Americans who had given up looking for employment and no longer fi gured into offi cial unemployment fi gures.

Critics argue that Obama is playing

have been out of work for more than six months, and a record number of households have at least one member looking for a job. To make matters worse, some employers are shortening the work week or asking employees to take unpaid leave, which doesn't show up in offi cial unemployment numbers,” reports the Wall Street Journal.

In addition, Obama has promoted long-term unemployment by adopting policies that make it harder and more expensive for employers to hire people. He has relentlessly pushed for higher taxes, higher energy costs, compulsory unionism and, of course, Obamacare. One does not need a Harvard degree to fi gure out that when government makes hiring more diffi cult and expensive, there is likely to be less of it, argues Jim Powell, writing for Forbes.

In February of 2009, Obama created his Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. Formerly titled the Economic Recovery Advisory Board, the council was chaired by former Federal Reserve chairman Paul Volcker. Members of the panel are involved in outsourcing jobs. The board has not met in over six months due to bipartisan issues and a reluctance by members to meet during Obama's re-election campaign.

election games with fi gures tabulating the unemployed and the growing number of Americans on federal disability insurance. People who qualify for SSDI are automatically excluded from the workforce, meaning that you can actually have an economy losing jobs while technically the unemployment rate will go down as more people received disability benefi ts and are subtracted from the workforce, reported John Ransom in Townhall Finance.

“Social Security Disability is a picture perfect program scam for the Obama administration. It allows Obama to say that unemployment is going down, while adding to the rolls of people who are dependent on some sort of Democrat-Party enabled government assistance,” Ransom said.

But Democrat-Party enabled govern-ment assistance can't last forever and the coming drought poses a serious po-litical problem for both establishment political parties. The imploding econo-my not only spells disaster for SSDI ben-efi ts it also presents a bleak picture for unemployment insurance. By August, a total of 500,000 long-term unemployed will fall off the government assistance roles. December will be even more bleak

Just another example of America’s decay and decline. But that’s for another time. I was in Berlin to launch the German edition of The Trends Journal and to open the European division of The Trends Research Institute.

Something struck me on the trip from the airport to my hotel. It didn’t register right away. But it did within hours. And I’ve been haunted by it ever since. Not a day goes by when I don’t think about it or talk about it. That’s not an exaggeration.

After checking into my hotel, I was given a whirlwind tour of the city by my German colleagues, and I got a pretty quick understanding of the general feel and layout of the place.

There was a lot of beauty to see. Lovely, independently owned shops. Sidewalks wide enough for clusters of café tables and plenty of space for walking and bicycling. How civilized, I thought.

Something else struck me. For a city of 3.5 million, it was very quiet. I thought the wide boulevards with tree-filled medians helped dissipate the noise. And most of the buildings seemed under 15 stories (I wasn’t counting) so the noise wasn’t trapped in a concrete canyon like other metropolises. And adding to the feeling of open space, parks are sprinkled throughout the city. Yes, it was strangely quiet.

I fell in love. Of all the cities I have been to in the world, I found Berlin to be the hippest. But I was also troubled by it. Some of the buildings from the late 19th and early 20th century were magnificent, strong and bold, radiating German quality. Yet the more I saw, the sadder I felt.

By late afternoon, it began to sink in ... and very deeply. Hardly a single street, it seemed, was made up entirely of these once-upon-a-time architectural

masterpieces. Instead they were like bookends, filled in between with hastily erected post-World War II construction. The scene was the same everywhere: A few old buildings, lots of new ones, some more old ones.

I started to picture what Berlin must have looked like before it was bombed. I imagined that it must have been even grander than Paris before the War. Germany, I thought, must have been the most civilized of all the Western societies in the 1930s. The art, culture, philosophy, architecture - what a society! Run down the list of names over the centuries: Bach, Beethoven, Goethe, Wagner to Einstein, Fritz Lang and Marlene Dietrich.

“These are the Germans,” I said to myself. Strong, educated, proud and noble. “How could this great society let a two-bit freak like Hitler destroy their lives? Why didn’t the people rise up and revolt rather than let the freak lead them to slaughter? It wasn’t as though the whole place was bombed out in a week. It was going on from 1940 to 1945. When was enough, enough?”

This wasn’t a philosophical debate going on in my mind. This was a question about life, death and the human spirit.

“I know, I know,” I told myself. “Hitler came to power because of the humiliating Treaty of Versailles that the Germans were forced to sign after losing World War I that set in motion the conditions for someone like him to take power, blah, blah, blah.”

No! It was much more complex than that. There was something else that allowed the great German people to put their lives in the hands of a two-bit freak. A freak that Charlie Chaplin played more convincingly than the man himself.

I’m of Italian descent. A long list of who’s who: Michelangelo, DaVinci, Rossini, Caruso, Puccini, Galileo - what a history, what a culture! I then asked myself “How could the Italians allow themselves to be led to destruction by a two-bit freak like Mussolini?

A cartoon character if there ever was one. What is it that allows people that have the intellectual capacity to know better to be so obediently led to slaughter?

Then there is America. No shortage of great people past and present. How could they let two-bit freaks lead and destroy them? Clinton, Bush, Cheney, Obama, Romney? To me it’s all a two-bit freak show. Look around the world: Blair, Cameron, Rajoy, Netanyahu, Merkel, Monti, Berlusconi, Sarkozy, Hollande. Name your country, pick your poison - president, prime minister, chancellor - all, in my eyes, two-bit freaks.

And they’re dangerous. They start wars, kill millions, destroy nations. They steal your money and give it to their friends. And with little resistance, and sometimes none at all, the people let them do it. In fact, not only do the people let them do it, they argue among themselves why their freak is better than the other freak. They will get angry with you if you call their freak a freak. They will actually fight and die to defend their freaks.

I’ve been haunted by Hitler since I landed in Berlin. What is it in the human spirit that allows this to happen? And now it is happening again. Our leaders are leading us to destruction. And, as in the past, the people are letting them do it.

“The 1st Great War of the 21st Century” has begun. It’s happening before our eyes. But no one, neither the media nor the politicians, is calling it what it is. Instead, they cover each major development or incident as a “one-off,” a singular event unconnected to the others.

Eventually, when history is written, the general perception will be that this war, as with World Wars I and II, also began in Europe. Though a gross oversimplification (the roots of war are widespread), because the European debt crisis is now center stage in the news, this Trends Journal is accordingly Euro-centered.

Wars don’t begin with assassinations of Archdukes, sinking of Lusitanias or bombings of Pearl Harbors. Those are the flashpoints; the march to war takes years.

For example, follow the time line: The Crash of ’29, The Great Depression, currency wars, trade wars, all leading to World War II.

History is now ominously repeating itself. The Panic of ’08, The Great Recession/Depression, currency wars, trade wars, leading to “The 1st Great War of the 21st Century.”

And, at the core of this war, no matter how it will be historically engineered, it didn’t start because of repressive regimes, the thirst for democracy, religious strife or territorial disputes – it all came down to money, power, and greed."The 1st great war of the 21st century

has begun. it's happening before our eyes. but no one, neither the media nor the politicians, is calling it what it is. instead, they cover each major development or incident as a one-off, a singular event unconnected to the others.”

The Second Amendment: It's About Tyranny, Not Hunting

Obama supporters and other lovers of the state recoil at the prospect of armed resistance to a tyrannical centralized federal government and refuse to accept that this is what the Second Amendment is all about. “The rights of conscience, of bearing arms, of changing the government, are declared to be inherent in the people,” wrote Fisher Ames, a member of the Massachusetts convention that ratifi ed the Constitution in 1788. This concept is antithetical to the modern liberal who believes government to be a force of good.

“The Second Amendment was to protect the ability of the people to violently overthrow the government,” writes Richard Schrade, an attorney from Georgia and member of the Libertarian National Committee. “Let’s remember that this country was formed in a violent revolution. Let’s remember that at Lexington and Concord citizen fi red on and killed government soldiers sent by the central government to confi scate their weapons and arms…. When viewed in this light, it is apparent that a limitation on automatic weapons would be an infringement on the purposes of the Second Amendment.”

If Obama supporters, Democrats, “progressives” and others demanding the government take our fi rearms in a misplaced effort to stop maniacs from killing people were honest, they would work to repeal the Second Amendment instead of chipping away at it piecemeal.

must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants?”

Obama is not a constitutional scholar. It is a phony title like just about everything else about the man. He is a teleprompter reader for a shadow global elite determined to debar access to weapons and take away those already in our possession. Not because of maniacs in theaters or classrooms, but in order to render us helpless against the violence of the state.

Now that Obama has tested the water on government gun control with a speech delivered before the National Urban

League, we can expect the divisive issue to play a role in his re-election campaign.

Obama and his globalist handlers – who ultimately want every gun confi scated – understand that the American people by and large support the Second Amendment. This is why the president patronized hunters and shooters with an oily sleight of hand.

“I also believe that a lot of gun owners would agree that AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not in the hands of criminals,” Obama said. “That they belong on the battlefi eld of war, not on the streets of our cities.”

In fact, according to the founders, guns – including AK47s in the modern context – belong in the hands of the citizens and their state militias, as plainly and eloquently spelled out in the Second Amendment. Thomas Jefferson and the founders did not craft the Second Amendment to protect the right of hunters and target shooters. It was included – right after the First Amendment guaranteeing political speech – to ensure the right of citizens to violently oppose a tyrannical federal government if need be.

AK47s and other “assault” weapons are the sort of tools that will be used if push comes to shove and the people must violently oppose the government.

“If we are going to have gun control then let’s not dicker around the fringes. Let those who would limit the law-abiding citizen’s access to arms fi rst repeal the Second Amendment. That would be the intellectually honest way to address the issue,” writes Schrade.

Such a debate is only possible today because formerly free men no longer have a grasp of history and have been brainwashed by decades of government mandated public education and propaganda. Early on in America, both the Federalists and the anti-Federalists agreed that arms and liberty are inextricably linked. George Mason and others knew refl exively that the most effective way to enslave a people is to disarm them. Mason, in particular, argued that divine providence had given every individual the right of self-defense – including the right to defend against a tyrannical government. Today, we have forgotten all of this.

Obama can easily get away with making an outrageous speech about hunting and target shooting and almost completely ignore criticism and not be called to task. We are told that he is a constitutional scholar. How could a constitutional scholar be completely ignorant of the Second Amendment’s true purpose and the admonitions of the founders? What constitutional scholar would be ignorant of Jefferson’s famous assertion, made in a letter to William Smith in 1787, that the “tree of liberty

with Mike Adams, who was guest hosting for Alex.

Ally: I used to work for a company that managed that speaker bureau program. We paid out those “honorariums” to speakers to go around and tell other doctors to prescribe… We would pay them up to $3,200 for an hour’s worth of work. These doctors got to think they were rock stars. They would go around thinking they were so cool. …They were making a living talking to other doctors. The only thing bigger than their heads was their wallets. They were so egotistical and so rich from it.

What Blair was saying earlier about the slide presentations that the doctors would use, absolutely those were written by the marketing people. My direct clients were the marketing people at Sanofi Aventis, AstraZeneca, Wyeth, and absolutely the doctors were paid to prescribe.

Mike Adams: Wow, so what was the behavior of the doctors? Were they willing to sell out?

Ally: Are you kidding me? They LOVED it! They would tack on these speeches onto a vacation. They would go off and have dinner, lunch or breakfast with other doctors, and then get the hotel paid for, and get their airfare paid, and they would pick a couple of days extra and just go on vacation!

Mike Adams: Remember that folks, when you go see your doctor, you’re probably dealing with a criminal who accepted bribes. That’s what these are; these are bribes, these are kickbacks. [For the record, GlaxoSmithKline is on the record pleading guilty to this admission with the U.S. Department of Justice.]

Ally: Absolutely… I’m sure all the listeners right now are shocked by all this. This was everyday obvious for us. I knew it was wrong in my heart and my soul, I

knew this was wrong which is why I had to get out of it. It was so blatantly obvious what was going on but everybody just like sheep kept walking toward the edge of the cliff, just kept doing it, just didn’t care, the doctors wanted the money, the reps were getting money, the more prescriptions that they got the better their sales were, the more kickbacks they got. Everybody was complicit, it was not a big secret. Everybody knew what they were doing.

Mike Adams: So how many doctors did your company deal with in your estimation?

Ally: It was doctors for each and every single drug. For instance, Sanofi Aventis had their overall list of speakers, and then each individual drug had their speakers. It had to be thousands…

Mike Adams: What was the highest amount you saw paid to doctors for these speaking gigs?

Ally: …they could very easily, sometimes they would make $1500 – $1800 for an hour, a visit, a lunch, breakfast or dinner, but they could go do a breakfast, and then a lunch and then a dinner, stack it up and then they were racking up fi ve or six grand a day. …There were so many little things they could get reimbursed for. Dry cleaning, meals at the airport. Anything that was incidental to the trip they got picked up, too.

Yes, I would recruit the doctors based on the pharmaceutical reps’ suggestions. So they might fi nd a doctor who they thought was “in on the deal” so they would submit their paperwork to get this doctor signed up to be on the speakers bureau, and then I would just physically coordinate the meetings and cut the checks. I would set up to get the speaker’s airfare, hotel, and get him the slide presentations, everything he needed to go to this meeting. I would set up the on-site meeting, it might be a meeting that had 50 to 60 people, or it might be just one doctor. There are times the doctor would get paid two grand to talk to one guy!

Mike Adams: It is a giant orgy of corruption that’s called medicine. If you take these drugs, if you take these vaccines, you are a sucker of these industries who are using your body to make profi ts for their own fi lthy rich executives. If you trust your doctor, you’re a fool.

Ally: I think as you said, don’t let them use your body, and don’t let them use your mind either. I was just a young kid doing this job, and I just needed the money, and as I got deeper and deeper into it, I knew it was wrong. I was unhappy every day. I just felt bad and icky in my soul, so I got out. I started my own business completely unrelated to pharmaceuticals, and I started following my own passion and my own heart.

Here in the Midwest it’s the secret that everybody knows but nobody talks about. Everybody knows the dice are loaded, and it’s time to start talking out about it. It’s time to start making life changes. Thank you for letting me talk. I hope that the information has been helpful to you guys.

According to court documents, GlaxoSmithKline alone had a speaker’s bureau network of 49,000 paid speakers.

Those are 49,000 doctors and physicians who knowingly and willfully accepted kickbacks and

who willingly accept kickbacks to

pharmaceuticals.

These revelations are surfacing on the heels of the drug industry’s largest settlement in history: GlaxoSmithKline’s $3 billion fi ne and guilty plea to committing felony crimes.

NaturalNews editor Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, was able to connect with one of the key whistle-blowers, Blair Hamrick, who initiated that nine-year DOJ investigation, and he went on the record with shocking allegations about off-label pharmaceutical marketing and the systematic bribery of doctors.

Hamrick was also interviewed by Adams on the Alex Jones Show, where he revealed additional information about Glaxo’s activities such as the “coaching” of pharmaceutical sales representatives to enroll doctors in elaborate kickback schemes.

Following Blair’s interview on the Alex Jones Show, a woman who identifi ed herself as “Ally” called in to the show and described, in authentic language and tone, how she had worked inside a company that managed the “kickback” relationships between drug companies and doctors. On live national radio, she proceeded to describe details about how doctors would earn up to $6,000 a day as part of Big Pharma’s speaker bureaus. In her own words, below, she explains how doctors and physicians lined up to cash in on the bribery payoffs, happy to sell their souls to Big Pharma while pimping out drugs that were often shown to be dangerous — even deadly — to the consuming public.

bribes to push GlaxoSmithKline propaganda in the form of “medical education.” This was a massive network of institutionalized bribery and corruption. Tens of thousands of doctors were in on the deal, collecting obscene “speaking fees” while taking fully-paid vacations as long as they continued to write an appropriate number of prescriptions for the pharmaceutical industry.

These revelations discredit the entire institution of conventional medicine. What has been billed as a system of so-called “evidence-based medicine” where intelligent, informed doctors making compassionate decisions about the welfare of their patients has turned out to be nothing more than a bunch of M.D. pharma-whores pimping out their souls for a quick buck. Through their actions, they cost Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance companies billions of dollars in overpriced prescriptions just so they could cash in at the Big Pharma feeding trough.

These are the licensed, M.D.s, the “doctors” that state medical boards certify as the only people who can discuss disease treatment with a patient. These bribery-accepting unethical medical practitioners have been granted medical treatment monopolies by state medical boards, but they turn out to be some of the most dishonest, selfi sh “professionals” working today. The only thing worse than whoring out your own body as a prostitute is whoring out the bodies of your patients to Big Pharma, and that’s what these 49,000 people did day after day, year after year, spanning decades of corruption with under-the-table bribery disguised as “speaking honorariums.”

And what do these bought-and-paid-for doctors tell their patients to take? Vaccines, medications, brand-name drugs. Chemotherapy! Anything that makes a buck for Big Pharma gets pimped out by these professional check-cashers who exploit the bodies of patients for profit. Jerry Sandusky raped boys in the Penn State locker room showers, but medical doctors have financially raped an

entire nation with runaway health care fraud and deceptive money-funneling operations.

More than half of all personal bankruptcies in the U.S. today are due to medical costs, and skyrocketing monopolistic prices for pharmaceuticals are bankrupting cities, states and even the entire nation which is teetering on the edge of a fi nancial crisis. Why has America allowed the drug companies to bilk the entire population for billions of dollars in illicit profi ts and then, even when the drug companies are caught in criminal acts, nobody goes to jail? Nobody takes a “perp walk.” The mainstream media doesn’t even run a story about it! And then Obama tells us we all are going to be forced to conduct business with these very same companies under Obamacare!

That’s the new America, where the citizens are fi nancially penalized by the federal government if they do not engage in the consumption of deadly chemical products from medical corporations caught red-handed engaged in criminal fraud.

Are you waking up to reality yet?

If your doctor prescribes you any brand-name drugs or recommends you take vaccines, a red fl ag should immediately go up in your mind: Is your doctor accepting bribes from Big Pharma?

They won’t tell you, of course, because they routinely do not disclose this information to patients. There is a place where you can get some of this information, however: It’s called ProPublica.

Under their “Dollars for Docs” section, ProPublica reveals the payments doctors have received from drug companies. There, you can check total kickbacks and doctor bribes by state, by company, or even by your doctor’s name.

For example, this page reveals that Cleveland Clinic received $3 million from Pfi zer recently. It also shows that nearly half a million dollars was paid to the

University of Utah from Pfi zer.This page shows that in 2010, Eli Lilly paid over $61

million in “speaking fees” to its network of doctors and physicians. This is a company that admitted to illegal off-label promotion of Zyprexa and paid a $1.4 billion fi ne to settle criminal and civil charges.

Is there ANY drug company that hasn’t been caught engaged in criminal acts?

New solar powered backup provides instant electrical power in any outage or disaster.

If you have ever wanted to have an emergency backup system that supplies continuous electrical power, this will be the most important message you will ever read.

Here is why.There is now a completely portable (and ultra-high

efficient) solar power generator which produces up to 1800 watts of household electricity on demand when you need it most. News of this “solar backup generator” (it’s the first “off-the-grid” breakthrough in 50 years) is spreading like wild fire all across the country!

Why?The answer is easy. You see, this solar generator is

extremely powerful and yet very simple to use. It produces continuous electricity and runs with absolutely no noise whatsoever. It emits no fumes. But the best part about the solar generator is that once you own one, you can... Generate Free Electricity From The Sun!

Charged by the sun with a powerful solar panel, the unit then stores the power for your use when you need it. We all face natural disasters, with hurricanes, tornadoes, snow and ice storms cutting off electrical power to millions of Americans each year.

Then there are man-made disasters and outages. Blackouts and rolling brownouts are becoming common in many parts of the United States as our grid gets stretched beyond its capacity.

The truth is, we are extremely vulnerable to all kinds of meltdowns that can create temporary or even permanent electrical outages. That’s why if you are one of the few Americans that thinks ahead, you need to…

Have A Solar Powered Backup In Place!When you compare a solar generator to a gas generator,

the difference is pretty remarkable. Here’s why. First, gas generators make an incredible amount of racket… if you can even get them started in the first place. With a gas generator, you pull and pull some more, all because your generator has been sitting in the cold and the carburetor is playing hard to get. This, of course, is not a lot of fun in the dark. Another reason to avoid gas generators is that you just can’t safely run one in your house. But the number one reason you don’t want to be caught in a time of crisis with a gas generator is…

Gas Stations Can’t Pump GasWithout Electricity!

It’s true. When the power goes out, you’re left with whatever gas you have on hand because the gas station pumps all run on electricity. A few gallons stored in a gas can means a little electricity for a little while, then it’s quickly “back to black.”

Here’s the thing: I could go on and on about life without electricity and what a nightmare gas generators can be. But here’s the bottom line: Solutions From Science is now offering an amazing power generating system that can provide plenty of electrical power in the event of an outage or emergency. And the best part is that you can have the power safely in your house.

A True Breakthrough In Home Power Generation!

Let me try to explain the features and benefits of a solar generator as simply as possible. If I could bring one over to your house and let you start plugging in appliances, you would immediately understand what all the fuss is about. But I can’t do that. Anyway, here are some of the reasons I think you’ll want a solar generator:

#1. Maximum Power In Minimum Time. The solar generator can be set up in just a few minutes.

Then, all you have to do is start plugging things in. It can run both AC & DC appliances anywhere… anytime.

#2. Back Up Power When You Need It Most.It’s called a “solar backup” because it’s designed to

come to your rescue when power trouble starts and your lights go out. Run a small refrigerator (high efficient ones are best) to keep your food from going bad.

#3. Portable Power.If the going ever gets too tough where you are and you

decide to “get the heck out of dodge,” you simply throw it in the car and take off to a safer destination.

#4. Generates Permanent Power.The unit provides 1800 watts of electricity at peak power.

That’s enough to run many appliances in your house. The generator is recharged constantly by the sun allowing you to use the system while charging it at the same time. Many users choose to keep appliances plugged in permanently to reduce electrical costs and help pay for the unit.

#5. Multiple Uses.You can use your solar backup to run essential appliances

when emergencies arise. You can recharge phones, run shortwave radios, televisions, lights, fire place or furnace fans, as well as computers and printers. Plus, if you need to work in the woods at the cabin or in a boat, you can use the solar backup to run power tools, trimmers, blowers and coffee makers.

#6. Plug And Play Means Instant Power. The emergency backup system comes ready to go. Just start plugging in your favorite household essentials. By the way... the units go for about $1697.00 plus shipping and handling. But I’m going to show you a way around that. I have negotiated a very special offer for InfoWars Magazine readers.

Here’s the deal. You can use coupon code IW101 to get one for $200.00 off as a InfoWars Magazine reader. To do that, the absolute fastest way to get one is by going to the website at:

www.MySolarBackup.comIf you would like to order by phone, you can call toll-

free by dialing 877-327-0365. Tell whoever answers that you want the “Solar Backup Generator” system rushed to you and you have a coupon from InfoWars Magazine.

Or, if you prefer to pay by check or money order (payable to Solutions From Science), simply send your payment to:

Contrary to popular belief the original architect of China’s brutal one-child policy, instituted as offi cial state policy in 1978,

was neither Mao Zedong in a power-drunk whim, nor a Party-sadist hatching eugenics in some sub-level torture chamber. According to anthropologist Susan Greenhalgh in her study Just One Child: Science and Policy in Deng’s China the inspiration for the tyrannical move by the Chinese Communist Party was inspired fi rst and foremost by the Club of Rome and its UN affi liates in the early 1970s.

Greenhalgh points out that the infamous policy “had roots in missile scientists’ exposure to and import of Club of Rome population concepts through international conferences in the 1970s.”

In 1978, a group of Chinese scientists visited several scientifi c conferences in Europe, and readily picked up on the ideas distributed by the Club of Rome. At the head of this Chinese delegation was a man credited for introducing China’s notorious one-child policies, source of so much hardship suffered by the Chinese people in the last decades. Robert Zubrin, senior fellow with the center for security policy, published an op-ed in the Washington Times, reaffi rming that Greenhalgh’s study is correct. Zubrin wrote:

“In June 1978, Song Jian, a top-level manager in charge of developing control systems for the Chinese guided-missile program, traveled to Helsinki for an

international conference on control-system theory and design. While in Finland, he picked up copies of “The Limits to Growth" and "Blueprint for Survival”- publications of the Club of Rome, a major source of Malthusian propaganda – and made the acquaintance of several Europeans who were promoting the report’s method of using computerized “systems analysis” to predict and design the human future.”

In fact, the “missile scientists” Dr. Song Jian and company, visited several conferences in Europe in the 1970s designed to further the glory and prestige of the People’s Republic of China around the world. They picked up and further developed several methods to calculate population rates on blueprint models used by the Club of Rome to calculate their scams into creation.

The Club of Rome, a think-tank emerging in the late 1960s out of the back alleys of the post-World War II eugenics movement, was meant from its very conception to be a beacon of light to which all environmentalist ships were supposed to navigate. Its creators knew that the green movement they had set out to create, was specifi cally designed to blame man for the supposed predicament the earth was in. As a consequence the number of people should be reduced lest the earth crumble under his crushing weight. The only thing to be done, the club argued, was for a global body of power to enforce depopulation goals as decided upon by the global elite.

In 1972, the self described “group of world citizens, sharing a common concern for the future of humanity” published their (in)famous “The Limits to Growth”. In this document the authors point-blank argue for the population to shrink if mother earth is to survive much longer: “The overwhelming growth in world population”, claim the authors, “caused by the positive birth-rate loop is a recent phenomenon, a result of mankind’s very successful reduction of worldwide mortality.”

This development is highly worrisome, says the Club of Rome. As possible solutions for this “problem” it proposes either the birthrate to be brought down “to equal the new, lower death rate”, or “the death rate must rise again.”

The fact that the Club of Rome and other UN entities stand at the cradle of one-child policies may not come as a complete surprise to those who have read all the policy-papers issued from the seventies onward. The same Malthusian idea that triggered our current green movement and its obsession with man-made global warming, once inspired hardcore involuntary sterilization policies in the decades preceding World War II.

In the 1991 publication The First Global Revolution: A Report to the Club of Rome by Alexander King and Bertrand Schneider, the common denominator that the world would need to rally around was identifi ed in all clarity.

“In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that

in the 21st century. Or, as the Secretary General of the Club of Rome puts it:

“Issues of international governance and institutional architecture will be critical in particular to the effective implementation of a post-Kyoto Treaty. To address the underlying drivers of climate change, institutional mechanisms must be introduced or adapted to implement and coordinate new policies in key areas of concentration such as: fi nance; science and technology; human resource development; information and communications; and capacity building. And the issue of “climate justice” will be central to achieving any agreement and to the acceptance of any treaty.”

Irrespective of these world players’ vested interest in such an architecture, they all dance to the tune of eugenics - whether they are aware of it or not. It can be to further their career or some sadist pleasure in usurping innocence; whatever their motivation, they have openly declared themselves to be on the opposite site of humanity.

In 2010, Business Insider featured a post by geography professor Gary L. Peters under the header Population Growth Is Still The Biggest Problem Facing Humanity.

After channeling armchair-eugenicist Alan Weisman, who stated: “The intelligent solution (to the problem of population growth) would require the courage and the wisdom to put our knowledge to the test. It would henceforth limit every human female on Earth capable of bearing children to one”, the professor added:

“Started now, such a policy would reduce Earth’s population down to around 1.6 billion by 2100, about the same as the world population in 1900. Had we kept Earth’s population at that level we would not be having this conversation.”

Who is the “we” Peters mentions that would be assigned to keep the earth’s population at any level? As John P. Holdren, Obama’s science czar, wrote in his monstrosity Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment:

“(…) a Planetary Regime- sort of an international superagency for population, resources, and environment. (…). The Planetary Regime might be given responsibility for determining the optimum population for the world and for each region for arbitrating various countries’ shares within their regional limits. Control of population size might remain the responsibility of each government, but the Regime would have some power to enforce the agreed limits.”

Such an agency exists. It is called the United Nations. After all, only a global government

pollution,the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fi t the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself” wrote King and Schneider.

This contrived and purposeful enemy arrived in the shape of man-made global warming. And to think that all of us gullible gadgets were fooled into believing that any climate change was caused by that big lamp in the sky, determining not just earth’s overall temperatures but those of all planets in the solar system.

It just goes to show that the scam is perpetrated on such an unprecedented scale, that up until a few years ago few dared question its validity. The entire thing of course boils down to the old Nazi proverb: the bigger the lie, the easier the sell. The United Nations, the globalist foremost salesman, was designated to carry the message along to all the world’s “regions” and all nation-states falling under its jurisdiction. The division of the UN deemed most qualifi ed to do the job was UNESCO, the scientifi c arm deciding what educational programs were to be distributed amongst the world’s universities and primary schools. On June 15th of 2010, Martin Lees, Secretary General of the Club of Rome gave a speech to UNESCO- social engineers in which he admits that:

“We in the Club of Rome have had a long relationship with UNESCO. We look forward to developing our future collaboration so that we can advance our understanding and cooperation to promote action on the critical global issues which will determine the future of us all at this diffi cult moment in history.”

To understand what this collaboration between the Club of Rome and UNESCO specifi cally entails, Mr. Lees provides us with the agenda leading up to and following the Copenhagen conference in 2009:

“In October 2009, we will focus at our Annual General Assembly in Amsterdam on “Environment, Energy and Economic Recovery” focused on the key issues for the Copenhagen Climate Conference. In February 2010 we will tackle Cluster Three, on International Development. In April 2010 we will focus on Cluster Four, Social Transformation and in July 2010, on Peace and Security. The Programme will conclude with a major event in November 2010.”

The agenda shows that the Copenhagen conference was far from an isolated happening. It is just one piece out of many in the overall global architecture the elite is constructing incrementally and with which it means to consolidate power

with a system-wide, coordinated eugenics-agenda would have the power necessary to impose such laws upon all the peoples of the world. There’s no other way to make it so.

“We can no longer wait for increasing wealth to bring down fertility in remaining high fertility nations; we need policies and incentives to stop growth now”, Peters stated in his little declaration of death.

“Population growth on earth must cease”, Peters argues again. Citing eugenics-front-man Paul Ehrlich and his equation of death (I = PAT), he attempts to disarm critics of the overpopulation mantra with this spell:

“(…) I represents our impact on the Earth, P equals population, A equals affl uence (hence consumption), and T stands for technology.”

The professor may argue that the biggest problem is people, I would argue it’s people like Peters that are the problem, advocating for dehumanizing policies, global in scope, imposing restrictions upon people regarding how many children to put on the world. But it is not just the professor that advocates for a global one child policy.

CNN founder Ted Turner, who has openly stated the earth would be better off when

95% of the human population would vanish, has also professed his admiration for the Chinese (read: UN) policies. In 2010 the Globe and Mail quoted Turner as saying:

“the environmental stress on the Earth requires radical solutions, suggesting countries should follow China’s lead in instituting a one-child policy to reduce global population over time. He added that fertility rights could be sold so that poor people could profi t from their decision not to reproduce.”

This echoes the views of Jeffrey Sachs, Ban Ki-moon’s “sustainability” advisor. In June of 2011, US congressman Chris Smith rightly announced that the UN and

China are working hand-in-hand to export China’s one-child policy to Africa. Sachs told AFP newswire in May of that year he “worries” about Africa’s “ballooning population”. Sachs:

“I am really scared about population explosion in Nigeria. It is not

healthy. Nigeria should work towards attaining a maximum of three children per family.”

Again: these are not genuine worries by genuine scientists. They are calculated statements by compromised charlatans.

As I reported on a couple of weeks ago,

UN strongman Maurice Strong told an audience of

environmentalists at a side-event to the 2012 Earth Summit in Rio de

Janeiro that China is the model-state for the rest of the world to emulate in regards to environmental matters.

“What China does matters to the world”, Strong said, “and what China is doing is actually a tremendous source of encouragement.”

Strong went on to say that “sustainable development” has become a “people’s movement guided by the people’s government.”

Strong is a long-time advocate of the sort of draconian population policies

that China has forced upon its people. As far back as the early 1970s, Strong hesitatingly admitted to the BBC that such a thing as a license to have a child is the kind of system he would see implemented globally:

That the Obama administration has resumed funding for the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) is another sad, undeniable fact. But we may not be surprised by it, as none other than John P. Holdren occupies the chief science position in the White House.

The more one researches this union between the UN and Club of Rome, forged in the blood of millions in the last century, the more one realizes that the anthropogenic global warming swindle is not just tied to eugenics. It is eugenics. All indicators point to an unsettling conclusion: the UN and its global affi liates are using China as their model-state, hoping to then export its population policies to the rest of the world.

CHINA HAS 32 MILLION MORE YOUNG MEN THAN YOUNG WOMEN

After setting sights on creating a heavily modifi ed apple that ‘never browns’ and doing their very best to hide the fact that

they are indeed genetically altered, a biotech corporation known as Okanagan Specialty Fruits is now pushing for their new genetically modifi ed apples to hit the market. The company recently sub-mitted an application to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to launch their initiative to get the apples into your local grocery market and reap ‘improved industry sales’, but they made sure that the data was not available to the public.

Now, after providing virtually no information to the citizens of Canada and submitting only two pages of infor-mation on the product actually written by the company, Okanagan Specialty Fruits is now set on a United States release. On July 9th, the USDA posted the corporation’s request for approval on their website for the genetically modifi ed ‘non-browning’ apples, giving the public 60 days to comment before ultimately making a decision.

The move has outraged many watch-dog organizations, who have continued to highlight the fact that the initial sub-mission to the Canadian government was ‘embarrassing’ in its utter lack of real information. Speaking on behalf of the Canadian Biotechnology Action Network, activist and biotech researcher Lucy Sharratt stated:

“The CFIA should be deeply

embarrassed for wasting Canadians' time on a false invitation to comment on the GM apple… the CFIA public com-ment period was always a sham because it was based on no data but this farce is now completely exposed.”

Genetically Modifi ed Apples Opposed by 69 percent of Canadians.

Unsurprisingly, Sharatt’s sentiments have been echoed by many Canadian citizens and activists. The crusade to bring genetically modifi ed apples has been met with extreme activism from concerned citizens as documented by a number of new polls and surveys. Giving a powerful statistical concept of how cit-izens see the proposition of the modifi ed apples, a consumer poll commissioned by apple grower associations based in British Columbia and Quebec revealed that 69% of Canadians simply do not want the genetically modifi ed apple.

One reason that some citizens are concerned is the fact that biotechnol-ogy researchers have openly admitted that while only one gene is necessary to be altered to prevent browning in the apples, the change could likely affect a multitude of other genes in the process. And with unknown gene changes comes unknown consequences. In case you’re skeptical, even Monsanto’s top PhD researchers have openly stated to former Monsanto employee and whistle-blower Kirk Azevedo that during the genetic modifi cation process “other proteins that are being produced, not just the one we

want, a byproduct of the genetic engi-neering process.”

Eventually leaving the company and coming out to expose their health-wreck-ing practices, Azevedo reports:

“I saw what was really the fraud associ-ated with genetic engineering. My impres-sion, and I think most people’s impression with genetically engineered foods and crops and other things, is that it’s just like putting one gene in there and that one gene is expressed….But in reality, the pro-cess of genetic engineering changes the cell in such a way that it’s unknown what the effects are going to be.”

There is still time to submit your com-ments to the USDA regarding the poten-tial approval of genetically modifi ed apples. The Alliance for Natural Health has established a simple form to do so.

ABOUT THE END OF 201212REASONS TO

BE EXTREMELY CONCERNED

What is the end of 2012 going to bring? Are things going to get even worse than they are right now? Unfortunately, that appears more likely with each passing day.I will admit that I am extremely concerned about the end of 2012. Historically, a financial crisis is much more likely to begin in the fall than during any other season of the year. Just think about it. The stock market crash of 1929 happened in the fall. “Black Monday” happened on Oct. 19, 1987. The financial crisis of 2008 started in the fall. There just seems to

1 Do you remember back in May when JP Morgan announced that it would be taking a $2 billion trading loss on some derivatives trades gone bad? Well, the New York Times is now reporting that the real figure could reach $9 billion dollars, but nobody really knows for sure. At some point is JP Morgan going to need a bailout? If so, what is that going to do to the US financial system?

One recent survey of CORPORATE EXECUTIVES found that only 20% of them expect the

economy to improve over the next 12 months and 48% of them expect the global economy to get worse over the next 12 months.

about the financial nightmare that is unfolding in Greece. Unemployment has soared past the 20% mark, youth unemployment is above 50 percent, the Greek economy has contracted by close to 25 percent over the past four years and now Greek politicians are saying that a third bailout package may be necessary.

All over the globe the flow of credit is beginning to freeze up. In fact, the Bank for International Settlements says that worldwide lending is contracting at the fastest pace since the financial crisis of 2008.

The U.S. economy is already a complete and total mess, and now the

Obamacare decision is going to throw a huge wet blanket on it. All over America, small business owners are saying that they are going to have to let some workers go because they cannot afford to keep them all under Obamacare. It would be hard to imagine a more job killing law than Obamacare, and now that the Supreme Court decision has finally been

announced we are going to see many businesses making some really hard decisions.

All over the United States there are cities and towns on the verge of financial disaster. The last week in June Stockton, California became the

largest U.S. city to ever declare bankruptcy, but the reality is

that this is only just the beginning of the

municipal debt crisis.

The tiny island nation of Cyprus has become the fifth member of the eurozone to formally request a bailout. This is yet another sign that the eurozone is rapidly falling apart.

All over the globe the flow of credit is beginning to freeze up. In fact, the Bank for International Settlements says that worldwide lending is contracting at the fastest pace since the financial

crisis of 2008.

A recent IMF research paper by Luc Laeven and

Fabián Valencia showed that a banking crisis is far more likely to start in September than in any other month. The following chart is from their report.

be something about the fall that brings out the worst in the financial markets. But of course there is not a stock market crash every year. So are there specific reasons why we should be extremely concerned about what is coming this year? Yes, there are. The ingredients for a “perfect storm” are slowly coming together, and in the months ahead we could very well see the next wave of the economic collapse strike. Sadly, we have never even come close to recovering from the last recession, and this next crisis might end up being even more painful than the last one.
