Tremendous Financial Devastation All Over The World

16 Facts About The Tremendous Financial Devastation That We Are Seeing All Over The World


The FBI again thwarts its own 'terror' plot



THE FBI AGAIN THWARTS ITS OWN 'TERROR' PLOT!!!!!

Are there so few actual 'terrorists' that the FBI has to recruit them into manufactured attacks?





(3) The irony that this plot featured “remote-controlled aircraft filled with plastic explosives” is too glaring to merit comment; the only question worth asking is whether the U.S. Government can sue Ferdaus for infringing its drone patents.  Glaring though that irony is, there is no shortage of expressions of disgust today, pondering what kind of Terrorist monster does it take to want to attack buildings with remote-controlled mini-aircraft.


(4) Wouldn’t the FBI’s resources be better spent on detecting and breaking up actual Terrorist plots — if there are any — rather than manufacturing ones so that they can stop those?  Harboring hatred for the U.S. and wanting to harm it (or any country) is not actually a crime; at most, it’s a Thought Crime.  It doesn’t become a crime until steps are taken to attempt to transform that desire into reality.  There are millions and millions of people who at some point harbor a desire to impose violent harm on others who never do so: perhaps that’s true of a majority of human beings.  Many of them will never act in the absence of the type of highly sophisticated, expert push of which the FBI is uniquely capable.  Is manufacturing criminals — as opposed to finding and stopping actual criminals — really a prudent law enforcement activity?


(5) Does the FBI devote any comparable resources to infiltrating non-Muslim communities in order to persuade and induce those extremists to become Terrorists so that they can arrest them?  Are they out in the anti-abortion world, or the world of radical Christianity, or right-wing anti-government radicals, trying to recruit them into manufactured Terrorist plots?


(6) As usual, most media coverage of the FBI’s plots is as uncritical as it is sensationalistic.  The first paragraph of The New York Times article on this story described the plot as one “to blow up the Pentagon and the United States Capitol.”  But the FBI’s charging Affidavit (reproduced below) makes clear that Ferdaus’ plan was to send a single model airplane (at most 1/10 the size of an actual U.S. jet) to the Capitol and two of them to the Pentagon, each packed with “5 pounds” of explosives (para. 70); the Capitol was to be attacked at its dome for “psychological effect” (para 34).  The U.S. routinely drops 500-pound or 1,000-pound bombs from actual fighter jets; this plot — even if it were carried out by someone other than a hapless loner with no experience and it worked perfectly — could not remotely “blow up” the Pentagon or the Capitol.


(7) As is now found in almost every case of would-be Terrorist plots against the U.S. — especially “homegrown Terrorists” — the motive is unbridled fury over (and a desire to avenge) continuous U.S violence against Muslim civilians.  Infused throughout the charging Affidavit here are such references to Ferdaus’ motives, including his happiness over the prospect of killing U.S. troops in Iraq; his proclamation that he’s “interested in traveling to Afghanistan” to aid insurgents; his statement that “he wanted to ‘decapitate’ the U.S. government’s ‘military center’ and to severely disrupt . . . the head and heart of the snake” (para 12) and to “essentially decapitate the entire empire” (para 34) (compare that language to how the U.S. described what it tried to do in Baghdad).  At least according to the FBI, this is how Feradus replied when expressly asked why he wanted to attack the U.S.:
Cause that would be a huge scare . . . the point is you want to scare them so they know not to mess with you . . . They have . . . . have killed from us, our innocents, our men, women and children, they are all enemies (para 19).
If the FBI’s allegations are accurate, then it’s clear Ferdaus has become hardened in his hatred; he talks about a willingness to kill American civilians because they have become part of the enemy, and claims that he fantasized about such attacks before the FBI informant spoke to him.


But whatever else is true,  it’s simply unrealistic in the extreme to expect to run around for a full decade screaming WE ARE AT WAR!! — and dropping bombs and attacking with drones and shooting up families in multiple Muslim countries (and occupying, interfering in and killing large numbers before that) – and not produce many Rezwan Ferdauses.  In fact, the only surprising thing is that these seem to be so few of them actually willing and able to attack back that — in order to justify this Endless War on civil liberties (and Terror)  — the FBI has to search for ones they can recruit, convince, and direct to carry out plots.

Putin signs order to extend counter-sanctions

President Putin signs order to extend counter-sanctions for another year

Published time: June 24, 2015 12:53

Russian President Vladimir Putin (RIA Novosti / Michael Klimentyev)
President Vladimir Putin has signed the order to extend Russian counter-measures in response to Western sanctions. The restrictions will be prolonged for a year starting from June 24, 2015.


"The government has addressed a letter to me asking to extend the measures that we had taken in response to the actions of our partners from several countries,” Putin said. “Today, in accordance with this letter, I have signed a decree on extending certain special economic measures in order to ensure the safety of the Russian Federation," he said asking the government to prepare and publish a corresponding decree as soon as possible.


The move comes in response to the EU decision on Monday to extend sanctions against Russia for six months. They were first imposed on August 1, 2014 over the events in Ukraine and the reunification with Crimea. Russia responded on August 7 when Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev signed a decree to ban imports of beef, pork, poultry meat, fish, cheese, milk, vegetables and fruit from Australia, Canada, the EU, the US and Norway. (Russia is SMART to ban 'food' imports from the USA. Who wants to eat GMO'd 'foods' and meats full of all sorts of DNA and agent orange? 

On June 19, the EU prolonged economic sanctions against Crimea and Sevastopol, saying it considered the territories to be “illegally annexed” by Russia. It will remain in force until June 23, 2016, and will include a ban on the import of goods from Crimea and any investment in the region.


There’ve been contrary reports on whether Russia is going to expand its blacklist of imported goods. On Tuesday, Russian food watchdog spokesman Aleksey Alekseenko said Russia was considering a ban on European chocolate and flowers. Russian Agriculture Minister Aleksandr Tkachev said the ministry had plans to limit imports of flowers and canned fish from countries on the sanctions list. However, there was no decision to include chocolate on the list, he said.



In such cases Moscow’s reaction is always based on the principle of reciprocity, said the Russian presidential spokesperson Dmitry Peskov, TASS reports.


"Russia wasn’t the one to propose this initiative, but in this case, since it’s [the sanctions regime – Ed.] extended, we will act on the basis of reciprocity," he said, commenting on the decision of the European Union earlier this week.


"Russia believes sanctions are unjustified and illegal. But we have never been the initiators of restrictive measures;" said Peskov adding that it “harms not only the interests of those who participate in our country’s economic activity, but also themselves, the interests of taxpayers in the European states."

FBI and DHS Preparing for False Flag?? WHAT?? THEIR OWN CREATIONS??!!



FBI AND DHS PREPARING FOR FALSE FLAG ATTACK
CLAIM DOMESTIC TERRORISTS BUILDING IEDS


(The only REAL terrorists ARE the FBI and DHS)





On September 27th, in Springfield, Illinois, the Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) will conduct a presentation on improvised explosive devices (IEDs). This demonstration is an extension of the FBI’s National Improvised Explosive Familiarization (NIEF) initiative “designed to raise awareness of the use of common chemicals to produce IEDs."


The Illinois Fertilizer & Chemical Association (IFCA) are an organization that assists and represents “the crop production supply and service industry while promoting the sound stewardship and utilization of agricultural inputs."


The NIEF was created in 2007. They are “an intelligence-driven and a threat-focused national security and law enforcement organization” that becomes involved with local and state law enforcement with regard to terrorist and intelligence threats.


Just last month, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) requested 700 pounds of high density ammonium nitrate and 700 pounds of A-5 Flake RDX explosives. These ingredients are known to be very high powered explosives.


The DHS was given oversight of procurement of ammonium nitrate after Congress requested they “regulate the sale and transfer of ammonium nitrate by an ammonium nitrate facility…to prevent the misappropriation or use of ammonium nitrate in an act of terrorism.”


The Ammonium Nitrate Security Program focuses on preventing a terrorist attack by use of ammonium nitrate in a home-made bomb by requiring that its sale and those that purchase it be registered with the DHS.


Purchasers are screened against the Terrorist Screening Database (TSDB).


Meanwhile, the DHS and FBI are warning about a possible false flag attacks using improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and “anarchists”.


Mainstream media reported that the “FBI and DHS assess with high confidence anarchist extremists will target… infrastructure in Tampa and Charlotte, with potentially significant impacts on public safety and transportation.” (Amazing they are so skilled in determining this while creating 'terrorist' events themselves.)


Domestic terrorists, according to the DHS, are more of a threat to American safety than foreign terrorist organizations. This harkens to the 2009 report DHS published for the Obama administration called Rightwing Extremism that stated domestic extremists, particularly white supremacists, were proposed to be the newest and most dangerous threat to the US since al-Qaeda.


While admitting that the agency had no definitive proof that “domestic rightwing terrorists are currently planning acts of violence, [however] rightwing extremists may be gaining new recruits by playing on their fears about several emergent issues. The economic downturn and the election of the first African American president present unique drivers for rightwing radicalization and recruitment.”


The FBI claims that “given the historical precedence and recent arrests, we assess anarchist extremists will likely continue to exploit lawful protests to facilitate violent criminal activity at events like the upcoming political conventions.”


The DHS are also educating police departments on terrorist IED threats with the assistance of the National Counterterrorism Center (NCC). The DHS claims that international bombings will be carried out on US soil and that the agency will develop partnerships with local and state law enforcement to prevent this from happening.


Funded by the DHS at the University of Rhode Island, Jimmie Carol Oxley , chemist and professor, works with the DHS on projects with her students to analyze IEDs from manufacturing to various “terrorist scenarios” that these diverse explosives could be used for.


Oxley has worked with many governmental agencies, such as the FBI, NSF, and National Academy of Sciences (NAS) National Research Council (NRC); as well as written over 80 papers on “energetic materials (explosives, propellants, pyrotechnics).


She has worked on law enforcement issues [with the FBI simulating the World Trade Center bombing (1993), with FEL examining large fertilizer bombs, and with ATF studying the behavior of pipe bombs]; however, her main research interest is hazard analysis of energetic materials.”


On a 2,200 acre site, Oxley and her students take IEDs constructed in the lab and detonate them to “see what happens.” They use chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide to study how chemical additives can reduce or exacerbate the effects of a home-made bomb. Most of Oxley’s students go on to work for the DHS specializing in criminal and terrorist investigations.


In May of 2012, the Global Campaign Against Improvised Explosive Devices (GCAIED) wrote a letter to Obama with the signatures of 23 members of Capitol Hill to bring “consensus” against the threat of IEDs. With intelligence gathered by the National Counterterrorism Center’s Worldwide Incident Tracking System, there is a doubling of IEDs being manufactured annually by civilians. The GCAIED claims that IEDs will be used to attack civilian populations with the intention to disrupt daily routines, healthcare and elections.


The connection to IEDs then turns toward the US veterans who may become violent and dangerous because of prolonged exposure to battlefield conditions combined with being diagnosed with traumatic brain injury (TBI).


Recently, Obama signed an executive order (EO) entitled, “Improving Access to Mental Health Services for Veterans, Service Members, and Military Families” wherein the Department of Defense is given control over the evaluation of the mental health of our returning service men and women by providing US government controlled “effective mental health services for veterans, service members, and their families.”


Obama demands that the VA and the DoD collaborate to provide proactive measures and a psychiatric pre-screen of returning service men and women to prevent erratic behavior. The DoD will “review all existing mental health and substance abuse prevention, education and outreach programs” within the military services and access their effectiveness. (bozo has never done ANY 'service'; his worst tragic experience has been to fall off his tricycle and skin his knee.)


In the Obama administration report “Strengthening Our Military Families” written in 2011, the direction of the document points to identifying all veteran’s potential to become mentally incapacitated due to some psychiatric disorder which would cause them to become violent, depressed, aggressive and inevitably dangerous to society.


While the DHS and FBI are preparing to enact a false flag attack here in the US, the Obama administration is setting up the means to have every US veteran committed to a government-controlled mental hospital as a form of indefinite detention. Once deemed insane, these men and women will not only have their arms taken, but there freedom restricted.


This tactic was enacted by other historical dictators from Mao in China to Hitler in Nazi-controlled Germany. We are witnessing the Fascist takeover of our nation through the actions of the current puppet Barack Obama. They are preparing for martial law and the complete lockdown of our country. This first of many steps toward our decent into Totalitarianism is being played out in the demonization of our US veterans, while simultaneously witnessing the DHS and FBI using propaganda concerning IEDs when it is the US government that is amassing 1400 pounds worth of ingredients to manufacture a fertilizer bomb.

Judge Napolitano: FBI Creates Fake Terrorist Plots



The new book by Trevor Aaronson, titled “The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI’s Manufactured War on Terrorism”, is a must-read on this topic.


Also, see a related story on 22 Islamic terrorist training camps inside the US the government allows to continue to function. One day we are likely to see jihadists committing all kinds of acts on our soil all the while the FBI allows these camps to continue unmolested.


Why? Because our President won’t declare the organization presiding over these camps as a terrorist organization.


A study conducted last year reveals that a full 94% of all terror attacks foiled by the FBI were in fact invented by the FBI!  The FBI Planned and Paid For Terror Plots  (see youtube video below https://youtu.be/p7vI9eh7rV8)

If the FBI needs to PAY, PLAN and RECRUIT for "terror attacks," THEN THEY ARE NOT 'TERROR ATTACKS'!!


There is no 'war on terror', only a war on our freedoms. The FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is the BIGGEST ENEMY to our freedoms.


If there are are so many 'terrorists', why would the FBI need to pay people to create a plot?? The answer is clear.

The impact of looking Qualifies the "Scope and Size" of what has been taking place right under the public's nose every single day for the last 80 years as the Public was masterfully Entertained into total distraction while a complete VOID was maintained for not a cognitive thought to be generated in the public's cognitive thinking. This was done with the full cooperation of the syndicated media, controlled education, both of the primary political parties, for not a peep or mention.

The CAFR is not "a" report, it is "the" report, your local government's statement of Net Worth that the public should have been going over with a fine tooth comb each year for the last 70-years. But how could they review when they did not know it existed due to the cooperative black-out of its mention?

Well, VOID now breached, cognitive thought now taking place, MAKE IT COUNT!

PS: Keep also in mind each report shows the holdings / income for just that "one" entity. Now think of the "collective" totals from all. 

Now you know why Russia in the 80's and now China in the 2000's have transitioned into the USA standard of operation. MORE CONTROL AND  MORE WEALTH GENERATED for their government. In the USA the better blueprint was drafted for control and wealth generation, and takeover of it all.

The NWO (New World Order) is not from the outside coming in. It was created here and is being implemented globally. One standard blueprint for population management and profit therefrom. I think we all can modify that blueprint. TRFA coming to a local government close to you. We The People as equal partners with government and not as the current blueprint outlines, as subjects to be controlled, suppressed, and managed. All across the Globe can do the same also, become equal partners with their government and then the world thrives from that point forward.

ANONYMOUS 2 FOLLOW THE MONEY!!


ABOUT 1.5 YEARS AGO JOHN MACHAFFIE CALLED US AND ASKED IF WE HAD ANY IDEA WHY THE RV WAS NOT BEING RELEASED. AT JOHN’S REQUEST, WE SUBMITTED OUR ARTICLE TO NESARA FOR POSTING STATING THAT, AMONG OTHER THINGS, DUE TO THE FREQUENT ‘PINGS’ AND UNUSUALLY HIGH AMOUNT OF PLATFORM TRADING, WE BELIEVED THE GANGSTER BANSTERS AND OTHER ‘ELITISTS’ WERE HEAVILY INVOLVED IN DOING PRIVATE TRADES FOR THEIR OWN FINANCIAL ENRICHMENT.  ALSO, OUR BELIEF THAT, AS LONG AS THIS ACTIVITY WAS BEING ALLOWED TO CONTINUE UNCHECKED, THE RV WOULD NOT BE RELEASED FOR THE PUBLIC.  SINCE THESE BANKSTERS BELIEVE THEY ARE ‘ELITE’ AND ABOVE THE PEOPLE AND THAT DINARIANS ARE TOO STUPID TO COMPREHEND WHAT THEY WERE DOING, THEY WOULD CONTINUE TO ACCUMULATE AS MUCH WEALTH AS THEY COULD BEFORE BEING DISCOVERED.  1.5 DAYS AFTER THE ARTICLE WAS POSTED AT THE TOP OF NESARA, JOHN MACHAFFIE RECEIVED AN ‘URGENT’ PHONE CALL FROM SOME VERY DISTURBED TOP LEVEL WF BANKSTERS.  THEY WERE VERY UPSET WITH JOHN.  THEY COULD NOT UNDERSTAND HOW ANONYMOUS 2 HAD FOUND OUT WHAT THEY WERE DOING.  THESE BANKSTERS DEMANDED JOHN IMMEDIATELY REMOVE THE ARTICLE FROM THE NESARA WEBSITE.

THE CHINESE WERE SAID TO HAVE DEMANDED THAT OBAMA BE REMOVED FROM BOTH ‘OFFICE’ AND THE UNITED STATES IMMEDIATELY AND YET THAT HAS NOT BEEN DONE?  AND THEN THERE ARE THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN REPORTED AS BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR CONTINUALLY INTERFERRING WITH THE RELEASE OF THE RV AND OTHER CRIMINAL BANKING ACTIVITIES AND IT APPEARS THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ARRESTED?   WHY HAS ARREST OF ALL OF THOSE  INVOLVED IN THESE CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES NOT BEEN DONE?  OUR MESSAGE TO THE CHINESE – WHY ARE YOU NOT TAKING ALL NECESSARY ACTION TO STOP THIS B.S.

Army refuses to provide Honor Guard for church's July 4th celebration

Courtesy of Abilene Baptist Church
Courtesy of Abilene Baptist Church
For nearly two decades, the U.S. Army has provided an honor guard for an Independence Day celebration at a Baptist church that predates the founding of the nation. But this year – that tradition has come to an end.
Officials at Fort Gordon say they will not be able to send an honor guard to a July 5th service at Abilene Baptist Church because it violates a military policy banning any involvement in a religious service.
“While there are conditions under which the Army can participate in events conducted at a house of worship, we cannot participate in the context of a religious service,” Public Affairs Officer J.C. Mathews told me.
He said officials at Fort Gordon as well as the Office of the Staff Judge Advocate reviewed the church’s request and determined they were in fact holding a “religious service.”
So it’s OK to invite the troops so long as you don’t pray, talk about Jesus or read the Bible?
“As a result, the Army is not permitted to take part,” Mathews said.
That policy would be an offense to most churches in America – but it is especially offensive when you consider the Army just refused to provide an honor guard for a church whose first pastor was a chaplain in the Revolutionary Army.
CLICK HERE TO FOLLOW TODD ON FACEBOOK FOR PITHY CONSERVATIVE CONVERSATION!

Abilene Baptist Church was founded in 1774 – one of Georgia’s most historic churches and the second oldest in the state. The founding pastor was arrested by a colonial magistrate for “preaching in Georgia” and the first pastor, Reverend Loveless Savage, was a chaplain in the Revolutionary Army.
“It was an absolute shock,” said Brad Whitt, the current pastor of Abilene Baptist Church. “What a sad commentary on the state of affairs in America – when we cannot even allow the flags to fly if they are in a church building.”
“We’ve had a tremendous working relationship with the fort,” he told me. “We’ve hosted all sorts of events for military families. We really try to show our love and respect and we try to honor our military folks.”
The July 5th church service is scheduled to be a “God and Country”-themed celebration with patriotic music and lots of red, white and blue. Afterwards, the church is hosting a Sunday picnic – complete with hot dogs and hamburgers. And for the sake of full disclosure, I’ve been invited to speak at the church service – as well as eat a hamburger afterwards.
Pastor Whitt said they were genuinely confused by the Army’s slight – seeing how Fort Gordon has been providing an honor guard for the past 20 years.
“They have participated for the past two decades and now they are saying – no,” he said. “This is just another example of the secularization of America.”
The church sent me photographs of the honor guard on the main platform of the church in 2007 and 2010. Last year, the church held their service in a local park – and once again – the military sent an honor guard.
So what changed?
Fort Gordon’s Public Affairs Office pointed me to Army Regulation 360-1 – dated May 2011.
The lengthy regulation states Army participation must not selectively benefit (or appear to benefit) any religious group. It also mandates that Army Public Affairs not support any event involving the promotion, endorsement or sponsorship of a religious movement.
According to public affairs, the 2007 church service was designated by the military as a “non-sectarian musical and patriotic program.”
According to the military’s calculations, 80 percent of the program was musical and the other 20 percent included narration and other patriotic elements.
“Because this was not a religious service, our participation was permitted,” he said.
He said the key is not whether the event is sponsored by a religious organization or held in a house of worship.
“Instead, the key factor is, whether or not the event is an actual religious service,” Mathews said.
So it’s okay to invite the troops so long as you don’t pray, talk about Jesus or read the Bible?
LISTEN: Todd’s interview with American Family Radio
“That’s what makes this so sad,” Pastor Whitt told me. “This is what we’ve come to in our nation – where even just representing the colors is some sort of political thing.”
While the Pentagon won’t allow an honor guard to set foot in a church, they have no problem allowing them to march in a gay pride parade.
Last year the Department of Defense gave permission for an honor guard to participate in Washington, D.C.’s gay pride parade – a historic first. An honor guard is also expected to march in the 2015 Capital Pride parade.
So if a military honor guard can celebrate gay pride in a public parade, why can’t they celebrate American pride inside a Baptist church?

The Satanic Temple to unveil 'Baphomet' monument in Detroit

COURTESY PHOTO

Atheist activist group The Satanic Temple is apparently making good on its mission to erect a statue of Satan, intended for an ultimate destination next to the Oklahoma State Capitol's monument of the Ten Commandments. In fact, TST plans to unveil the completed statue for the first time in Detroit next month.

Why Detroit? Last year, the group chose Detroit as the location for its first national chapter house. "Detroit is our first and primary chapter," spokesman Doug Mesner says by email. "We feel at home in Detroit."

The group of culture jammers pushes for a separation of church and state by distributing Satanic literature and fighting to be included alongside displays of Christianity on state grounds. Last year, the group erected a small temporary holiday display on Lansing's Capitol lawn when it was announced that a Nativity scene was being proposed for the location.

The finished Oklahoma sculpture depicts "Baphomet," Satanism's winged, goat-headed icon. In a press release, TST calls the bronze monument — which weighs one ton and stands at nearly nine feet tall — "already the most controversial and politically charged contemporary work of art in the world."

While Oklahoma's Ten Commandments statue was destroyed last year after being run over by a car, it was swiftly replaced in January. Meanwhile, the group's request to place the Satanic monument on the same grounds has not been granted. Mesner tells us that the Satanic Temple is currently gearing up for a lawsuit against Oklahoma; it is expected to be officially filed before the unveiling event.

In the meantime, the statue will get an unveiling party on Saturday, July 25 at Bert's Warehouse Theatre on 2739 Russell St. in Detroit. The party starts at 9 p.m. Tickets are $25 and $75 for VIP and available for purchase online.

VIP ticket holders get an exclusive opportunity to be photographed with the statue, receive a limited edition poster, and "an opportunity to meet and greet with TST Executive Ministry," according to a press release. "Cocktail attire" is encouraged — "dress to impress the devil."
