Political sacrificial lambs

It's a strange thing that, in modern politics, whenever there is a difficult situation for a government that affects the whole country and calls into question the policies of that party there always seems to be some scandalous bit of trivia around individual politicians that distracts public attention for long enough for the bigger problem to become old news. This never used to be the case, and the reasons for that are interesting. The first point here is the strange phenomenon of the half life of news stories. It used to be the case that a damaging news story could finish a career, but that seems not to be the case any more. News is ephemeral. A story about corruption amongst politicians that should bring down the establishment lasts a couple of months. A scandal for an individual politician lasts perhaps a week and then everything is back to normal. It seems as though the public can't hold a thought in it's head for longer than that, and there has been a deliberate move by the mainstream media to make sure that this is the case. Look at the way the media reports a story today as against say fifty years ago. Today there is a massive hype on day one, reducing over the next couple of days before disappearing. This sets up a thought process in the reading public that indignation similarly peaks and quickly wanes.

The second somewhat strange practice is the recycling of careers within politics. It seems that even in cases where politicians are arrested and convicted of criminal offences that is no bar to returning either to the political arena or to a related corporate position. It used to be the case that a criminal conviction would end a political career and create a pariah of the individual concerned. Again we can see that this has been a gradual change created by the media by constant emphasis that criminal behaviour is merely a temporary lapse in judgement when it occurs in a senior figure whilst at the same time being endemic in the lower orders. This second feature is critical as it emphasises the gulf between those in power and those with none. It lays the groundwork for the point where the powerful can do no wrong and are successful by right rather than by dint of effort.

This brings us back to the idea of individual politicians allowing themselves to be used as scapegoats and distractions. It is interesting to note that there are very few politicians who don't have at least one skeleton in the closet. It is almost as if it is a requirement of the job, whether it be a mistress, a fondness for autre sexual activities or just a tendency to dip a hand into the till. You might be forgiven for thinking that politicians are required to engage in some activity that they can be blackmailed over when the time is right. Almost like the process of hazing found in University societies, which some have claimed exists for that very purpose. After all, if there are photos in existing of you with a bunch of strippers accepting a large brown envelope you are more easily biddable, and if necessary expendable, for the right pay-off of course.

So, who is behind this shift from responsible, answerable political movements to fraudulent, corrupt, criminal politicians? Well, the media plays a part, as do large corporates and lobby groups, but these are not natural bedfellows, so somewhere, something greater must be behind them, but who would have the power to control the press barons, the corporate boardrooms and the bank funded lobbyists? What if there really was an elite above all of this, above the money, above the obvious power, hidden in the clouds of verbiage spewed out in the press? Wouldn't that make an interesting story? One that dates back at least a thousand years, across the globe. Wouldn't that be a scary thought?

Corporate price collusion

One of the richest veins of conspiracy thinking is the realm of corporate multi-national business. You'll note that I don't say conspiracy theory, because whilst there are unproven theories in the corporate World there are plenty that are not only well established but that it appears some corporate operators are actually proud of. We have already briefly touched on corporate tax avoidance in a previous article, and another area that has been established over the last twenty years through a series of court cases is the phenomenon of price fixing. The reason that conspiracies around corporations are so readily accessible is that there are very often crossovers at board level between competitive companies, particularly in fields where specialised knowledge is at a premium, such as pharmaceuticals and finance. Where there is crossover, technically there should be no dissemination of sensitive information between competitive companies, but how often is this really the case. In the UK we have seen court cases regarding the operations of large pharmaceutical companies colluding to fix prices offered to the National Health Service (NHS) thereby breaching competition laws, but it goes further than that.

What many people don't realise is the reach that these large companies have. They not only supply their own products and services but are behind supply to other smaller companies. They exert influence at the highest political levels and reach into education, health, the military, in fact almost ever aspect of modern life. Let us consider one company in particular, active in many aspects of the petrochemical industry. Haliburton is one of the largest companies in the World, funding political campaigns, research, education, economic development and healthcare amongst many other things. One of the key areas of growth for the company has been rebuilding in the Middle East after the Gulf War and the invasion of Kuwait, as well as being active in South America. Where this becomes interesting is not simply the influence in the corridors of power, but the information coming from rivals British Petroleum (BP) and ESSO who at a recent government committee meeting revealed that they had agreed a division of the work following the Gulf War in Iraq before the war had happened. Not only was this evidence of price fixing, but it also strongly suggests that the decision to go to war was not necessarily purely a decision taken by politicians.

This level of influence and power being held by corporations who are not responsible to anyone but their shareholders and whose overwhelming commitment is to profit rather than ethics is at best questionable, but seems more likely to be yet another example of a part of the global conspiracy in the form of the military-industrial complex. The question that remains, and one that will be answered in upcoming posts is “Who is really controlling these corporations?” which may seem an odd question, given the power of these businesses, but if you analyse their behaviour and their choice of partners and operations you see some very odd choices that actually make little if any commercial sense, and end up costing the business rather than generating profit. You'll be amazed at the way this story develops, and just what uncovering the collusion and tracking the flow of money ends up revealing. Watch this space.

Secret trade agreements behind the development of a single global faith

Since the collapse of the Soviet Union there has been increasing focus on China as an emerging World superpower. Certainly China has been busily expanding its operation, investing heavily in Africa and South America, buying up vast blocks of land to give access to mineral and fuel raw materials, but this is not the real story here. What is more interesting is the source of wealth to make these investments, and who has been paving the way for the Chinese in these areas of the globe where government corruption is endemic. Almost all of the countries in receipt of the Chinese largesse are former European colonies, and most particularly of England, Spain and Italy. Following the trail of breadcrumbs that is the tortuous corporate structure financing loans to China through dummy companies and accounting structures makes uncovering tax avoidance schemes look like childs play, but it is possible. The trail starts with UK overseas development fund payments made to companies operating in India. These companies are secretly owned by Chinese interests and the payments are routed through holding accounts in Lichtenstein and Switzerland. The banks are in large part funded by the Catholic Church who provide the capital reserves that allow the banks to operate outside the vagaries of the global economic slowdown by guaranteeing the banks continued solvency.

The reason behind the Vatican involvement is found in documents recovered from the Palestinian desert in 1973 which reveal events from the missing period in the life of Christ as laid out in the canonical gospels. The documents reveal that Christ spend the time from age 10 to age 28 following the trade routes from Egypt through the Middle East and India into Tibet and China. During this period his teachings spread in as a revision of Buddhist teaching throughout the Far East, but in order to fulfil Biblical prophecy found in Daniel, this step away from what would become Christian dogma had to be suppressed. It had long been known from earlier Sumerian and Babylonian texts that the concept of a single God was incorrect, and that the Gods were a highly advanced race of which the prophets had been members, Christ just the latest in a long line of Visitors. It was essential that this was suppressed because the divisions between competing religious groups was essential for humanities development. Had it become widely known that all religions are simply aspects of a single greater story mankinds spiritual development would have become stagnant and moribund and enlightenment, the true goal of that development would not have been achieved.

With the dawning of the 21^st Century it was decided that the time had come to prepare mankind for the next step in our evolutionary journey, the formation of a single global faith that would everyone in a single goal, the goal of ascension to the higher planes of reality. By raising the power of China, and reducing the dominance of America the balance of power globally is shifting. By providing the ultimate funding for China the UK and the Catholic states of Spain and Italy would be ideally positions to rise with China. You may be wondering why the UK, a protestant nation is a part of this cabal, and the reason is remarkably simple. The reformation in the UK under Henry VIII was a matter of political expediency rather than religious idealism as it was in much of the rest of Europe, and in reality the UK has always remained, at the highest levels of power, a Catholic nation. The leading families, the landed gentry retained their Catholic priests, and the arrival of the Hanoverian line to the throne of England only strengthened this.

The timeline currently is to announce a new archaeological discovery by Chinese researchers in Africa in 2013/14 which will prove the divinity of Christ, but will fundamentally change the Christian canon to bring it more closely into alignment with Eastern philosophy thus laying the foundations of the global faith. America and much of protestant Europe will reject the new evidence leading to a final global conflict with China, UK, Italy and Spain allied against the rest of the World, Chinas superior numbers being the deciding factor. This will leave the way clear for the next revelation.

The legacy of the Ahrnenerbe and the Thule Gessellshaft

At the turn of the 19^th into the 20^th Century across Europe there was a heightened interest in esotericism, mysticism and the occult. From about 200 years earlier there had been a growth in fraternal societies such as freemasonry, illuminati, spiritualist groups and so on on the back of the increase in free time and disposable income that came as a consequence of the industrial revolution, and these began to exert more and more influence through the wealth of their members. In Germany there had been, for quite a while, a movement to establish the antiquity of the German race and its ancestors, and the development of the idea of an Aryan ancestral race many thousands of years earlier. Funded by the wealth of several leading German industrialists and bankers there were numerous archaeological, historical and scientific projects across Europe and out into the wider World through the Middle East, China, India and Tibet, as well as West to Iceland, Greenland and on to Canada and North America seeking evidence of Aryan, and therefore Teutonic/German global dominance. This quest extended into the search for folk tales and songs, and cultural practices including witchcraft and sorcery.

These societies coalesced into two closely linked but discrete groups, the Ahrnenerbe, an offshoot of the SS under Himmler charged with establishing the evidence for Germanic natural dominance and for the suppression of “lesser” races, particularly Jews, and the Thule Society whose role it was to establish occult and mystical strength to support the German rise to ascendancy under the influence of Rudolf Hess. Officially the Thule society was defunct by 1920 and the Ahrnenerbe had become responsible for human testing programs to further the war effort, particularly in areas such as the effects of high altitude flying, and battlefield wound treatment. Much of this experimentation was carried out on the victims of the concentration camps, along with military volunteers. Unofficially, both groups remained active throughout the Second World War, and after the defeat of Germany, continued through the distribution of scientists and academics from these groups around the World but particularly in Russia, America, South Africa and South America, as well as small groups in the UK.

It was this mindset of higher and lower races of humanity, and the understanding that lower races could be treated as essentially cattle for the use of the higher races that informed the research programs of the late 20^th and early 21^st Century and the increasing inequality in society. These research programs require a constant supply of disposable people to fuel testing and that in turn requires a concerted effort to create distinct societal divisions, effectively a small over class and a vast under class. In order to create a larger underclass there is a requirement to increasingly limit access to education, to modify and control diet, to economically control wealth distribution and to limit freedoms. You may question whether this is happening, but ask yourself why there is an obesity epidemic? Why there is such a rise in mental health problems? Why so many people are so deeply indebted? Why school examinations are being made easier and easier to pass? Why governments continually increase the powers of the police and security services? These actions make no sense for a healthy society, so why is our society artificially made unhealthy? The answers will come, but by then it may be too late.

The great property ownership conspiracy

For generations now we have lived with a lie. We have been told it so many times that we believed it, we built our lives around it. What lie is this? It's a big one, it is the one that tells us that we should own our own homes. That we should each own our own small piece of this Earth, that it can be ours and no-one elses, and that it has a value that can only ever go up over time. It makes an odd sort of sense perhaps. There is a finite amount of Earth, and an ever increasing population so there should be increasing demand against limited supply. Of course this assumes that economics makes any sense at all, which is not exactly a safe assumption, give that social sciences in general are not known for their accuracy, or indeed their scientific nature. There is another issue at the heart of this though. Recent events in the global economy have highlighted what many people already knew, or at least suspected. We have been living in an economic fantasy for an awfully long time. Our money is a sham, value based solely on a perception of value rather than on anything tangible or real.

The idea that has kept this fallacy going for so long is that our property is the rock that allows us to borrow against future value. As long as property prices are rising we can keep borrowing against that future value and keep consuming, generating revenue for industry, which can pay more workers more money who can spend that money on more property and more credit and so on ad infinitum. Until the system breaks down. Which it now has. The idea of owning, controlling, deriving personal wealth from a portion of our planet should be anathema. We should tread this planet lightly, not shackle it and deplete it and pollute it to satisfy our own lusts. But that is really just an aside. Given that property ownership and the consumer economy have been shown for the worthless sham that they are, the question remains, to what end was this lie propagated? Who benefits? For the answer we must turn to that favourite of conspiracies everywhere, the banking elite, and no, they haven't had enough of a kicking yet!

Follow the money. The global private banking institutions make money by lending to commercial banks, creating the illusion of money. This is passed on to consumers who spend it, creating debt, which is further funded by the private banks. When the debtors default the commercial banks take the hit and the private banks make yet more money collecting on the insurance policies that they took out in the first place. There are very few winners in this game, and they are always the same. The solution? Understand that property ownership is an illusion, open a basic checking account and close all of your other banking and savings accounts. Withdraw your money as soon as it is paid into your account. Refuse to enter into direct debit agreements, cut up your credit cards, pay off your loans and reduce your outgoings until you can live within your means. The good times are over, they never truly existed, and the austerity that our politicians talk about is not even close to the austerity that we are all about to experience. Welcome to the brave new World (order).

Why Rupert Murdoch is the most misunderstood man in the media

Ok, I can hear you all saying “What's going on now?” Firstly let me make it clear that I am no apologist for the mainstream media, but I am interested in the New World Order and the global elite, and sometimes there are crossovers into the mainstream. So why do I consider Rupert Murdoch, a man seen by many to be at the heart of the global conspiracy to be misunderstood? The reason is simple. Whatever his flaws and failing, Rupert Murdoch is a man who cannot be controlled. In part this is a trait he shares in common with many Australians. They are a proud, not to say, belligerent people, known for straight talking and not suffering fools gladly. This is evidenced by his refusal to court the attentions of people in power, preferring to create for himself a position in which the powerful seek him out. His intellect is unquestioned being a politics, philosophy and economics graduate of Oxford University as well as completing an MA, and his position on personal editorial control over his various media outlets has always been to allow the editors he employs the freedom to act as they see fit.

This makes him tremendously dangerous to the global elite, and is the real reason that his motives, practices and controls are constantly questioned. The truth is fundamentally counter to the rumours and insinuations. Having been introduced to journalism by his father Sir Keith Murdoch, a highly respected war correspondent and media magnate known for his insistence on scrupulous ethics in journalism, and his further development of his own social conscience evidenced by his support for social politics and public ownership of utilities, Murdoch is far more committed to exposing corruption and malpractice in the upper echelons of society. As a pragmatist and social realist Murdoch understood early on that in order to expose and make public the wrongdoings of others it would sometimes be necessary to adopt an “at any cost” approach to journalism, and this has led many to see him as unscrupulous and utterly unethical. This is far from the case.

At root Murdoch understands that in order to effect change in society, and in order to hold politicians and leaders to account one needs, in the first instance a platform from which to bring these stories to as wide an audience as possible. This is his raison d'etre in creating a network of highly populist, easily accessible media outlets that successfully engage with a global audience. In the UK his Sun and News of the World newspapers were significantly the best selling newspaper for many years, the Sun having a readership of 4 million regularly. His Fox news network in the United States is one of the most highly watched, and in order to achieve this Murdoch has actively researched and understood that what people want is not high brow analysis and cutting insight, but something that is more accessible to the mainstream. It should be noted that the Sun in the Uk is written specifically for a reading age of 14 years because it is understood that news should be accessible to all irrespective of educational background.

Having successfully created a vast and effective global platform, Murdoch specifically works to both entertain and inform without bias and without fear or favour. These should be the principles of all good journalists. The issue comes in the fact that in order to gain access to information that the elite would rather keep hidden, there is a need to engage in less ethical acts. This has been seen in the furore over the phone hacking scandal, but this is yet another smokescreen. Another desperate attempt to limit the power of a man who defies the control usually exerted on the owners of the supposedly free press. Right or wrong, good or bad, Rupert Murdoch is one of the very few successful men to do things completely his own way and to stand for the unempowered and disenfranchised. Love him or hate him, you have to respect a man who stands up to the global elite that would far rather that we were all cattle, and are working actively to achieve that.

Reality television conspiracy

From our correspondent within a large production company :

So, you know the big reality shows, Big Brother, X Factor, Pop Idol, all that lot? Well, they weren't created by the TV companies see. They were designed and developed by a group of boffins in the US. There has been a load of research since the 1950's into controlling large populations through visual media, you know, TV, movies, video games, all of that. When it was obvious that pretty much every home was going to have at least one TV it was an opportunity to deliver targeted to huge numbers of people quickly and easily. Now, if you are a company buying advertising time, then you are overtly presenting a message and that is fine and understood, but if you are a government there are other options. There was a lot of work through the '50's and '60's into subliminal messages embedded in film and television shows. The CIA, as part of the MKULTRA experiments investigated the effectiveness of single frame flashes which were found to influence viewers without their being aware of it.

There is a lot of nonsense put out about this, the whole drink coke and eat popcorn thing at the cinema in the '50's is misinformation, the experiments showed that mind-control by subliminal messaging doesn't work that way. We now know that this is because of the way the brain is wired. It accepts sensory inputs but doesn't process them completely. The subliminal images influence the subconscious mind and tend not to interact directly with the conscious. So, the upshot of this is that although you can't directly tell people to do something, or buy something specific, you can modify more general positions. You can encourage people to eat more by indirectly influencing their appetite centres, you can discourage people from reading by influencing their emotional response centres, do you see where this is going?

Lets suppose that as a leadership elite you want to have a population that is docile, overweight, poorly educated then you can create a structure within say a popular TV show that creates a greater likelihood that this will be the case. This takes a period of time. Think back to the 1970's. Can you imagine how you would have reacted to the news that people would dedicate Saturday evenings to staying in watching a Karaoke competition? Of course not, yet that is what people are doing. The reason is that since 1974 there has been a gradual introduction of messages within programs to create a shift in the psychology of the majority of two generations. This process has been gradual with a changing message exerting more and more influence, and the process is not complete yet. The incorporation of these messages into reality TV shows is telling in itself. The format of the shows encourages audience engagement, which is part of the acceleration programme. The choice of contests is also key to deeply imprinting the messages. The long term goal is to create a society within which the elite can operate overtly, fully accepted by the lower orders who will essentially be treated as cattle, and most importantly, will accept this situation.

This is the culmination of over 300 years of development and research by the elite families and explains why certain technologies have developed and others have been allowed to fail. Why was Edison preferred over Tesla? Why Marconi? Why Baird? At each technological development that has led to the creation of todays visual media there have been competing systems. The elite have tested these competing systems and selected the one that allowed greatest progress toward the goal of complete control was selected and pushed forward. Of course the inventors were not aware of these, nor were the companies who developed the products and services, nor were the media companies who pushed certain products over others, or the majority of politicians who allowed it. Only the elite are in possession of all of the facts, and they are not about to come clean to anyone. But take a look at the chain of events and the way they are accelerating and the way that society is degenerating, and come up with a better reason or explanation.....
