I have been very morbid and miserable of late in my posts, and I wondered if people would be prepared to cheer me up by telling me some (clean) jokes.

I admit I am terrible at remembering and telling jokes. I don't know why, but even one liners are lost within moments of hearting them!

A few nice cheering jokes would be welcome. Please give me something to laugh at for once!

Thanks in anticipation.

Today, yet another region of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, opted out of its residents paying for NHS prescriptions, yet still considers itself a part of the NHS (National Health Service).

Northern Ireland is the latest region, with Scotland and Wales having already opted out. England, however, is not just one region within the EU, but several, and the EU does not recognise England at all in any of its paperwork!!

The National Health Service began as a means of giving free treatment to those who were resident in this country in 1948 by the government of the day. In time, as businesses have tended to do, long names have been shorted to initials, or acronyms, but the initials still mean what they used to mean, and like it or not the only Nation today is the UNITED KINGDOM of GREAT BRITAIN, and NORTHERN IRELAND, or what is quaintly known as the UK.

Therefore, the nation in the NHS is the United Kingdom, and not just one small part of it!! But as the European Regions of the UK, also include three of the four ancient kingdoms of Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, far too many people have come to believe that the nation only applies to these areas, not the whole of the country.

With these areas opting out of the prescription fee for drugs, at present over £7 per item, it means that the people of the English regions are left paying for them all, and when Scotland first opted out, it was no surprise that the same this this occurred, the price of a prescription in England suddenly went up!

The EU wants only the regions of the UK to be recognised, and the UK becomes a member state of a much bigger country (federation of states), not a country in its own right! This problem with the NHS is just the start of a bigger regionalisation agenda, and our government is positively encouraging it without letting the people decide.

If the regions want to opt out of the prescription fee they should also opt out of ALL the NHS services as well, but they won't and the English are again the mugs, paying for everything and getting nothing in return.

We should protest, may be a call we would like to make, but the UK is now the most surveilled country in the EU and possibly the west, and if we even attempted to make a small quiet legal protest we would be stopped one way or another, through some form of politically correct dogma, or some obscure interpretation of the rules now in place.

This country is in a state of madness and there is no way I can think of which would enable decency and common sense to prevail. I remember a few years ago a law lord said that Common Sense no longer exists, as it means different things to different people. However, the definition of the word "common" means EVERYONE has the same idea/thought/attitude.

Yes, there are people who are at variance with others about specific ideas/concepts, but I think if everyone was asked what was important to them you would find that a lot of people had similar ideas and social concepts. But somehow, there appears to be a determined effort to show up the differences in people rather than the similarities, so encouraging disharmony instead of harmony.

I have often wondered if the way the British people banded together during WWII was considered a problem to those who seek world domination? All forms of methods are now being used to take away that unity, that common idea, and replace it with incompetent, disharmonious structures that destroy rather than support.

Perhaps I am being rather morbid and cynical, but it is the way I have been feeling for some time and it is clearly not an attitude that will disappear overnight. It is made worse by such crass decisions.statements as I have been describing above.

I would add, that earlier this year, during a serious flood in one part of this land, a man found himself trapped by the foot in a manhole drain where the cover was missing. People such as fireman, police, etc, came to see if they could rescue him, but they couldn't agree on what to do, and whilst they argued, the water rose higher and the man eventually drowned because he couldn't escape from the hole. And the people in authority watched, and no-one was held responsible!

Division, incompetence, and personal safety rules, hamper the saving of a life. Similar traits abound in the various organisations which make up the UK, and the life of the UK is being lost because no-one seems to know how to save it, or perhaps they are not bothered about saving it!

The United Kingdom is disappearing in a morass and is unlikely to rise again. The rise and fall of the UK is definitely on the way out of this world,

A Headline in a recent newspaper in the UK said, "Faith can ease pain". Apparently some scientists did an experiment, using Catholics and Athiests, who were asked to look at a picture of the Virgin Mary whilst being "tortured" with electric shocks.

The surprise for the scientists was that the Catholics were able to deal with the pain far better than those who were not Catholics!

They do admit in the final paragraph that it may be possible for athiests to look on an image of great imprtance to them and cope with the pain like the Catholics did!

Even before I read that last paragraph I had come to the conclusion that this is not just about faith, but something else which we tend to place under the header of faith, or belief.

Actually, it comes down to what you are focusing your attention on at the time of the pain. If you are looking at something that has great meaning, and even good memories for you, then by focusing on the good thoughts you distract the body's sense mechanisms and reduce the pain level considerably!

The brain can only do ONE THING AT A TIME! Just as a computer can only do one thing at any given moment, it nevertheless can appear as if it is doing more than one thing, but the activities which the brain authorises are subject to a time delay and the mind can be assessing a different matter whilst the arm, leg, heart, other bodily parts, are carrying out the activity.

It is also possible to "shift" the "consciousness" to another part of the brain. I know because I did it in the past (much harder now to do this unfortunately). I remember several years ago I had to have an injection into my heel, without any anaesthetic and I was warned the injection would hurt but it was important that the area was left as it was so that the precise point in which the large needle would be placed was exactly where it should be. To numb it first could result in the injection missing the "spot" where the pain arose! Being warned, and having read somewhere beforehand that it was possible to "shift the consciousness" of the mind, I found it necessary to try and do this for the pain was excrutiating!!! And I did do it. The pain had reached a point where I was about to pass out and instead I purposefully moved my conscious self inside my head to the right. I could tell I was slightly out of normal position, but the pain levelled out and became easier to deal with. Because of this I kept my foot totally still, and the injection was successfully administered, and the result very soon after felt miraculous as the severe pain I had felt when putting weight on my foot had disappeared.

How often do stage magicians distract your attention at a crucial moment so you don't see the sleight of hand they are about to perform? How often do politicians try to make something that we know is bad seem to be less worse, often by mentioning a totally different subject? How often to advertisers try to convince us that the product they make is the best thing in the world and just what we should have, even when it is nothing more than a load of rubbish?

By allowing ourselves to have our minds distracted, and moving our mind's attention onto something else, we can deal with things that would normally be too painful to bear. This is the main purpose of religious belief. By believing in something that can't be proved, but only accepted even if it is false, can in a way help us to get through those difficult times that would otherwise be even more painful. This at least gives some valid positive purpose for what many, including me, term to be a false belief, certainly within the orthodox religions. But it is the reason why I accept that for many people this religious belief is what helps them survive, and whilst I won't use these forms, I am happy for others to do so. In the end, it helps all of either directly or indirectly to have a passable life.

What are your views?

I find it strange that history has pushed people with the same/similar names into the limelight at the same time.

First example: Tony Blair (UK Prime Minister) and Ian Blair (Metropolitan Chief Police Commissioner)
Second example: Hank Paulson (US Treasury Secretary) and John Paulson (US Hedge Fund Chief who predicted last year that the economy would go belly up).

All of them, to my mind, have been far too influential in changing our lives, and not for the better.

Tony Blair brought in New Labour, and ruined the political/social framework whilst in office. Ian Blair did the same to the British Police Service. Both are involved with the law in some form.

Hank Paulson is the one making the decisions as to which major finance company can be saved and which can't ruining everyone's lives financially. John Paulson has done the same by betting on the possible demise of the global currency market (increasing his own wealth in to the bargain), and has been a major factor in the way companies had their debts restructured and with the other hedge companies has left all companies in a far worse position than when they started and hedge fund companies generally a lot richer. Both are involved with the financial sector.

One small incident on a much more personal scale: I am linked to the North Pennines Heritage Trust via my boss who happens to have not only a "day job" but is also Chairman of the Trust. Recently they appointed a Development Officer, whose first name is Carol Robinson whose wedding anniversary is on 9th October. My husband's first name is Robert (often shortened to Robin) and his birthday is on 9th October, and of course my first name is Carol. Both of us are connected to this Registered Charity.

How many other people can suggest similar links?

The Bush administration is insisting that executives, especially CEO's, of failed companies that ask for Federal Government assistance be allowed to keep their severance packages worth hundreds of millions of dollars. These people are guilty of, to say the very least, very, very,...very poor management. Thinking that they would get their fat severance packages when it was time to leave or retire from their companies, and knowing that they would get their fat pay checks while they were still working for their respective companies, casually gambled away their respective company's money on very bad investments. It didn't take a genius to know that sub-prime loan mortgage backed securities would default sooner or later. In this regard, we must praise Goldman-Sachs. Goldman-Sachs sold all of their mortgage backed securities, sub-prime and prime, before their ever was a crisis! So, let it not be said that nobody knew that this crisis was coming, or that the banking industry doesn't have good people in management. But, what executive managers seem to forget is that at the end of the day they are just high ranking company employees, not gods. And, any employee that refuses to do their job efficiently should be fired without compensation. Furthermore, any Board of Directors or anyone in company management that promotes employees to their highest level of incompetence instead of leaving them in positions at their highest level of compitence deserves to be summarily fired without compensation also. But, President George W. Bush, whose competence is very questionable, thinks that these executive managers, mainly CEO's, should get their multimillion dollar severance packages that they most assuredly did't earn. This to me is Bull Sh$t!

Just a quick note.

I was browsing the internet and came across this website.

http://data4science.net/essays.php?Essay...

It relates to a recent sunspot, after nearly two months of inactivity, and it is a bit strange.

See for yourself.

My married name, Noble, has often been mis-spelt by various companies. It has led me to believe that our educational standards have certainly dropped in recent times. My surname has been spelt, Nobel, Nobbel, Nobbell, Knobel, Knobell. The latter word is actually linked to a German word, and is related to the word, DICE. Now my mother's maiden name is Wurfel, and this too means DICE in German. When I looked at the German/English Dictionary we have both words are placed in the definition of DICE.

How is that for coincidence?

And they say God doesn't play with Dice?

Recently, I was reminded of the many things that have had an effect on my life, which I have remembered or encountered. Many of them seem almost like a long set of coincidences.

My husband and I have always been interested in unusual things as many unusual things happened to us when we were younger.

Recently, I have been looking at the Shugborough Monument, whereby a carving of the Pouisson Painting (mirror image and with modifications) is stood. There are letters carved below which everyone thinks is a code and many have tried to decipher over the centuries.

My husband had mentioned to me about a link he had found between that monument and a quatrain in the Nostradamus Book, regarding two of the letters. I asked about this and he got out the Holy Blood & Holy Grail book and showed me a picture of the monument, along with the quatrain in the Nostradamus book of prophecies which we possess. He was right about the quatrain apparently referring to this monument, but as Nostradamus wrote his quatrain BEFORE the monument was made and before Poussin did his painting, was this prophecy on Nostradamus's part, or someone determined to make the quatrain come true? I don't know.

But then I looked at the Holy Blood Holy Grail book again and spotted the list of so-called Grand Masters of the Priory de Sion. Now I know that official historians say the Priory de Sion doesn't exist and that the papers mentioned in the book are a hoax, but I was surprised to notice that one of the Grand Masters was said to be Charles Radcliffe. When I first read this list the name meant little to me, but I work for a man who is also a Trustee and presently Chairman of a charity called, North Pennines Heritage Trust, and they have two sites, one of which is Dilston Castle & Chapel, in the north of England. This used to be owned by the Radcliffe/Radclyffe family, and Charles Radcliffe was the brother of the Earl of Derwentwater - James Radcliffe - who was beheaded after the Jacobite Rebellion in 1715. Charles Radcliffe apparently was in Newgate Prison after that rebellion, having been caught amongst a lot of the ordinary participants, and he later escaped to the continent with the help of his cousin, the Earl of Lichfield, whose family did own the Shugborough Residence at that time. It later was owned by the Anson family who raised the monument to commemorate one of their deceased relations.

Charles Radcliffe is said to have been involved in Freemasonry, and set up some lodges in France, as well as being involved with the Scottish Rite Freemasonry. He was also a known Jacobite supporter. Eventually, he was caught when he tried to help Bonnie Prince Charlie return to England's throne, and was eventually beheaded, instead of hung drawn and quartered because he styled himself the Earl of Derwentwater after his brother's death, and he was a grandson of Charles II as his mother had been an illegitimate child of that monarch, Lady Mary Tudor.

I was also fortunate to be able to decipher some old papers relating to the Radcliffe family, which as yet are not in the public domain. This was from a period BEFORE Charles Radcliffe was born yet this has all emphasised to me the importance of the Radcliffe family in the north of England. I would add that they were strong catholics at a time when catholics were hated in this country, the 1600s/1700s.

Under recent archaeological works at Dilston it is known that the ruined chapel was on the site of a previous chapel, one dedicated to St Mary Magdalene. As the Holy Blood Holy Grail were concentrating on the story of Mary Magdelene I find it a big coincidence that this earlier chapel had been dedicated to this particular person. I also find it strange that she was ever made a saint, especially as the catholic church has for centuries prortrayed her as a "whore".

There are also masonic symbols on some of the stone work of the chapel. It is hard to know if these were made during the newer chapels formation, or whether they had been part of the previous chapel and the stones recycled in the new one. But they would have been visible to the young Charles Radcliffe so perhaps they influenced his stance on freemasonry.

Since researching further, I have found that it is suggested that a royal person called Edwin had first formed a Masonic Lodge in England. Some put it to the brother of King Athelstan, from around the 900s. Others suggest that it may have been the King Edwin of Northumbria in the 7th Century. Whichever, the idea of a group of operative masons has been around a long long time! Northumbria at one time included the area of Dilston.

I have been interested in the history of my local area/region for some years. I have also been interested in the 1600s/1700s as I think this was a fascinating time, especially in the north of England.

Why I should have returned to this time period is a bit of a mystery because it came about unexpectedly, but I am researching once more into this and Charles Radcliffe is one person I will look at in more detail.

Any assistance in this would be appreciated!

THE PAWNS IN THE GAME: AMERICA'S CRISIS: HAS SOMEONE CALL THE DEBT IN

By Fahim A. Knight-EL

The United States economy in the last twelve (12) months has had more economic challenges perhaps not seen since the Great Depression of 1929, in which the United States economy collapsed sending political, economic and social shock waves throughout America and around the world. Dr. Malachi Z. York in his book titled, "Leviathan: 666" stated, "The Depression of 1929-1937 A.D. was caused by too many goods chasing too little currency. Instead of making more currency available, the Federal Reserve deliberately took currency and credit out of circulation to cause the Depression. The bankers took over the defaulted properties. The New Deal was instituted whereby the Federal Reserve expanded the credit currency and national debt." (Reference: Malachi Z. York;” Leviathan: 666" pg. 323).

This is almost like deja Vu because the exact thing is taking place in 2008 that took place almost 80 years ago—blame the money changers, on these present day economic events because they are inventive and cyclical. Who are the Elitist men that preside over humanity? David Rockefeller, Harry Oppenheimer, Baron Eric de Rothschild, Karl von Habsburg, Juan Carlos, Edgar M. Bronfman, Sr., Lord Peter Carrington, etc. http://fahimknightsworld.blogspot.com/20...

The devaluation of the United States dollar, the Subprime fiasco, the escalating Oil pricing and perhaps the first time in the history of the United States, the Federal Reserve financially rescued, a private investment firm—Bear Sterns. This unilateral decision was made by the Federal Reserve to rescue Bear Sterns and engineered JP Morgan's purchase of Bear Stearns with a $29 billion guarantee was unprecedented. But this writer believes it was well calculated and appeared to be on the surface diametrically opposed to how we were taught business principles 101 in America. The system of Capitalism, in particular private enterprise foster risk versus projective profit incentives—the free market arena is for players (the taxpayers did not share in the astronomical profit margins these financial vipers reaped over their many years in business) and the taxpayers should not be burden with external debt incurred by private Fortune 500 companies for what appears to be poor business decisions that has adversely affected their bottom line figures. Moreover, greed a was factor in their so-called failing.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two of the largest home mortgage lenders in the United States in which the Federal Reserve pledged to backstop Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac up to $200 billion dollars as a bailout move and also, American International Group (AIG) was bailout by the Federal Reserve—they readily passed the debt on to American taxpayers as though they are in a position to absorb these private business financial crisis—who already has a tight economic noose around their necks. These staunch capitalist are blaming the "have nots" for their so-called profit losses and accusing the public of manipulating the system of credit, but are taking no responsibility for poor due diligence because there is no honor amongst thieves.

The international bankers are putting the squeeze on the American people, in particular and the global economy in general, they have acquired the majority of the world's gold and has built the world economy on a worthless piece of paper (Federal Reserve note) and of course, they are behind orchestrating Wall Street and the world market collapse.

Ahmad Thompson in his article titled, "The King Who Has No Clothes (the DAJJAL)" stated, "The money used to be made principally of Gold or Silver. Since it was made from these precious metals it had inherent value. The first banks were formed to look after other people's money by keeping it in a safe place, although of course even at this stage money still had a palpable and valuable form. The practice arose whereby when someone deposited Gold or Silver in the bank, the banker would give the depositor a written receipt, whereby he promised to repay the Gold or Silver when that receipt was presented to him. The practice then arose that these receipts became transferable. Thus the depositors of the Gold was able to buy goods to the value of the Gold in the bank, by giving his receipt to the seller of the goods. The seller of the goods could then take that receipt to the bank, and collect the Gold, even though it was not he who had originally deposited the Gold there. Since Gold and Silver are relatively heavy, and since paper is relatively light, the bankers then hit upon the idea of printing paper money. Any one who deposited Gold and Silver with them was given this paper money. That paper money could then be used in any number of consecutive transactions, the understanding being that anyone at any time who had these notes come into his or her possession could, if he or she wanted, take them to the bank and exchange them for the Gold or Silver which they represented. At this simple stage every paper note was backed by its equivalent amount of Gold or Silver. You could exchange one for the other at any time." (Reference: Ahmad Thompson; "The King Who Has No Clothes).

Thus, these gangster have no shame in their game, they are continuingly making zillions of dollars off the misery of humanity on the backend and then hold the ignorant masses on the front-end liable for the recent financial woes, which they themselves created—they are bent on getting all the money from their modern day slaves (yes debt is a form of slavery). Texe Marrs in his book titled, "Circle of Intrigued: The Hidden Inner Circle of the Global Illuminati Conspiracy stated, "Cloaked in mystery and shrouded in secrecy, the Inner Circle is comprised of ten powerful men. These men meet regularly--at least twice per year--secluded location. Their proceedings take place in a locked and sealed suite at a swank and exclusive resort hotel, or at a private estate owned by one their minions. Their decisions and agenda, kept top secret, result in the most dire and grievous consequences for ordinary citizens. Wars, revolutions, scientific discoveries, diseases, financial booms--and crashes!--these are some of the life-giving-destroying decisions made at their confidential sessions. The future of Planet Earth and almost six billion inhabitants is plotted out in the dark recesses of the mind and hearts of these ten cruel men. Most American know little or nothing of the existence of the Inner Circle and are totally oblivious to its grand design." (Reference: Texe Marrs; "Circle of Intrigued: The Hidden Inner Circle of the Global Illuminati Conspiracy" pg. 15 &16).

US Government in 1913 turned over our monetary system to a bunch of private bankers that operates behind the Federal Reserve System and gave these twelve Central Banks ruler-ship over our monetary system. This is a list of Banking Institutions (Central Banks) that rules the entire planet: 1. Rothschild Bank of London, Rothschild Bank of Berlin, 2. Chase Manhattan Bank of New York (Rockefeller) Chase National bank of New York (Rockefeller). 3. First National Bank of New York. 5. Hanover National Bank of New York. 6. Goldman Sachs of New York. 7. Kuhn Loeb Bank of New York. 8. Lehman Brothers of New York. 9. Warburg Bank of Hamburg Warburg Bank of Amsterdam. 10. Lazard Brothers of Paris. 11. Israel Moses Seif Banks of Italy. 12. JP Morgan. The Thirteenth Tribe is the Mother of all banks—The Bank for International Settlements based in Basel, Switzerland. (Reference: Ashahed M. Muhammad; “The Synagogue of Satan”)

These so-called failing financial institutions are only subsidiaries of the Central Banks, the Central Banks use them to deal with us peasants and act as sophisticated collection agencies that enforces the interest rates and is on the frontline of the buying and selling of currency pursuant to the ground rules laid out by the Central Banks (for laymans, when you negotiate an interest rate on a loan, you have purchased a credit base dollar and has agreed to repay it at a higher interest percentage rate than the actual amount you borrowed—this is buying and selling money, but this writer is from the streets and where I am from we call it "loan sharking").

In all actuality, the world's currency for the most part has no value—paper which has become the medium of exchange and was created out of thin air. Pat Robertson in his book title, "The New World Order" stated, "The companion secret to wealth building is compound interest, called by Baron Rothschild 'the eight wonder of the world.' If it is possible to create money out of nothing, then loan it at interest. Think how more wealth can be created if the money is not repaid but allowed to compound year after year." (Reference: Pat Robertson; "The New World Order" pg. 121 & 122).

The Federal Reserve is the go between the people, banks and the Central Banks. Eustace Mullins in the "The Secrets of the Federal Reserve" further stated, "Federal Reserve notes are actually promissory notes, promise to pay, rather than what we traditionally consider money. They are interest bearing notes issued against interest bearing government bonds, paper issued with nothing but paper backing, which is known as fiat money, because it has only the fiat of the issuer to guarantee these notes. The Federal Reserve Act authorizes the issuance of these notes 'for the purpose of making advances to Federal Reserve banks . . . The said notes shall be obligations of the United States. They shall be redeemed in gold on demand at the Treasury Department of the United States in the District of Columbia.' Tourists visiting the Bureau of Printing and Engraving on the Mall in Washington D.C. view the printing of Federal Reserve notes at this government agency on contract from the Federal Reserve System for the nominal sum of .00260 each in units of 1,000, at the same price regardless of the denomination. These notes, printed for a private bank, then become liabilities and obligations of the United States government and are added to our present $4 trillion debt. The government had no debt when the Federal Reserve Act was passed in 1913." (Reference: Eustace Mullins; "The Secrets of the Federal Reserve" pg. 203). This link give us a good explanation of how the Federal Reserve system operates http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zS2ZiDjZsF0

This writer learned by casually studying finance and business; in particular, the capitalist economic system and learned that the major means of production and distribution was a matter of private enterprises, comprised of corporate ownership being in the hands of individuals and private corporations. Eustace Mullins in his monumental work titled, "The Secrets of the Federal Reserve stated, "The International consortium of financiers known as the Bilderbergers, who meet annually in profound secrecy to determine the destiny of the western world, is a creature of the Rockefeller-Rothschild alliance, and that it held its third meeting on St. Simons Island, only a short distance from Jekyll Island. Larson also states that 'The Rockefeller interests work in close alliance with the Rothschilds and other central banks." (Reference: Eustace Mullins; "The Secrets of the Federal Reserve” pg.173).

The bailout of Bear-Sterns was not a decision put forth by referendum where it was brought before the citizens of the United States for vote nor did the United States Congress or not even President Bush because the Federal Reserve does not act under the United States Constitution or our jurisprudence system; it functions with sovereign immunity. This writer has watched Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Shalom Bernanke testify and give reports—generic explanations for the rise and/or decline of interest rates before the United States Congress as though he is being held accountable to the American people. The concept of fiscal responsibility does not apply to the Federal Reserve. This is only an illusion. Reference: Fahim A. Knight-EL http://fahimknightsworld.blogspot.com/20...

Thus, in this writer's last article titled, "None Dare Call It Conspiracy: There is no Other Name to Call it by" http://fahimknightsworld.blogspot.com/20... there were some critics from various websites where the article was posted who could not phantom nor accept or were unwilling to explore the possibilities that their existed a small Cartel who literally rule the world and pull the purse strings on the political, economic and social events that affects all humanity.

The evidence of this is becoming clear at each passing day. The entire financial crisis that the Unites States is experiencing, is being orchestrated behind the curtain. One responder tried to deduce the above article to anti-Semitism and even declared me as an anti-Semite because some of the evidence pointed to a small sector of a powerful Jewish Cabal that were involved in high finance and banking. This writer abhors any form of racism and bigotry and has fought against these type injustices all my adult life. This writer has no power to disrupt, alter or impede Jewish people's progress which rendered his criticism of me and my writings even more senseless. However, there is a Zionist influence that is undeniable and some time it becomes quite difficult to ascertain the truth because of the layers upon layers of intentional deception.

Some damn body has a stranglehold over humanity and it appears to be the same names and faces that have been recurring in American history since the inception of our Republic and throughout the world; a bloodline of powerful invisible rulers of Dynastic families that have been inspired by greed and the accumulation of wealth by any means necessary seems to always be front and center in this debate.

David Icke in his book titled, "The Biggest Secret" describes it this way: "The control of money and banking via the Rothschilds and others are crucial to this. One of the brotherhood's most important coups was the creation in the 1913 of the Federal Reserve, the so-called 'central bank' of the United States. It is neither federal nor has any reserve. It is a cartel of private banks owned by the 20 founding families, mostly Europeans, which today decides the interest rates for the United States and lends non-existent money (figures on a screen) to the US Government on which the taxpayers have to pay interest. This is what we call the 'American Deficit'--it is fresh air. The Federal Government of the United States does not own a single share in the Federal Reserve and American citizens can not purchase them. Profits exceed $150 billion a year and the Federal Reserve has not once in all its history published audited accounts." (Reference: David Icke; "The Biggest Secret" pg 219).

They completed there financial enslavement of humanity in 1913 (the establishment of the Federal Reserve Act and system) at that secret meeting at Jekyll Island off the coast of Georgia where the International Bankers and a bunch rogue politicians met with criminal intent (a Conspiracy was hatched to rob the world monetary system) performed and enacted one of the greatest bloodless revolutions in the history of mankind. It put Mao Se Tung, Ho chi Ming and, the French Revolution, and the Bolsheviks Revolution to shame and other great revolution to shame. There was not one bullet fired, but the invisible casualties would be made visible immediately and over time by this master too slave relationship that would bind and chain humanity forever to DEBT and psychologically convincing them that this was the greatest economic system in human history, as defined by Adam Smith in his treatise "The Wealth of Nations" and they have controlled the people's will to resist.

This is how it played out, William Guy Carr in his book titled, "Pawns In The Game" stated, “Mr. Paul Warburg's creation of 1913 had been steadily attempting to set up a 'Central Banking Organization which would acknowledge NO AUTHORITY ON THIS PLANET AS ABOVE IT (emphasis mine). Hitler knew that if Warburg and associates had their way, the Bank of International Settlements would become as autocratic in regard to international affairs, as the bank of England is in regard to British National Affairs and Foreign Policy. Politicians and statesmen were being asked to believe this banker's dream would stabilize the banking system of the world. In this contention they were absolutely correct. The nigger-in-gold-pile is the fact, that with the realization of this dream, all hope of freedom and plenty for the individual and private industry would automatically disappear. The citizens of the world have the same financial security as the criminals who enjoys social security behind bars. Against this process of reducing the people of the world to financial slavery Hitler decided to take a definite stand, and refused to allow Germany to be merged into the league of Monopolist States, secretly controlled by agents of the Illuminati”. (Reference: William Guy Carr; "Pawns In The Game" pg. 154-155).

William Guy continues: “After Paul Warburg's Federal Reserve System had been in operation three years i.e.1913 to 1916, President Woodrow Wilson summed up the economic situation in the United States of America as follows:” A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credits. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. . .We have come to be one of the worst ruled; one of the most completely controlled and dominated governments, in the civilized world. . .no longer a government by conviction and the free vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of small groups of dominant men.' That is actually what modern so-called democracy really means." (Reference: William Guy Carr; "Pawns In The Game" pg. 154-155).

Yet, it was a coup d’état with unimaginable ramifications and consequences that would impact the political, economic and social lives of many generations to come. The financial trouble on Wall Street is being induced by the twelve Central Banks and the Federal Reserve System is its front—disguising itself as a governmental entity, but is privately owned by the same twelve Central Banks that determines nations currency value, interest rates and daily strength and weakness of the global financial markets. (Reference: William Greider; “Secrets of the Temple: How the Federal Reserve Runs the Country”).

Eustace Mullins in "The Secrets of the Federal Reserve" further stated: "Even the present Chairman of the House Banking Committee claims that the Federal Reserve is government agency, and that it is not privately own. The fact is that the government has never owned a single share of the Federal Reserve Bank Stock. This charade stems from the fact that the President of the United States appoints the governors of the Federal Reserve Board, who are then confirmed by the Senate. The secret author of the Act, banker Paul Warburg, a representative of the Rothschild bank, coined the name 'Federal' from thin air for the Act, which he wrote to achieve two of his pet aspirations, an 'elastic currency,' read (rubber check), and to facilitate trading in acceptance, international trade credits. Warburg was founder and president of the International Acceptance Corporation, and made billions in profits by trading in this commercial paper. Sec. 7 of the Federal Reserve Act provides 'Federal reserve banks, including the capital and surplus therein, and income derived there from, shall be exempt from Federal, state and local taxation, except taxes on real estate.' Government buildings do not pay real estate tax.” (Reference: Eustace Mullins; "The Secrets of the Federal Reserve" pg. 202 & 203).

There are many who refuse or unwilling to explore the possibility that there are invisible powers and entities that are manipulating our very existence. This writer deliberately did not venture in the connection between the various ORDERS (Club of Rome, House of Rothschild, Skull and Bones, Order of Illuminati, Council on Foreign Relations, Bilderbergers, Trilateral Commission, etc. This writer has written extensively in the past, on the Order connection to High Finance in which these powerful men are ranking members in these various front Orders and communicate in a language of symbolism that is indiscernible to the masses of the people. (Reference: Dr. John Coleman: “Conspirators Hierarchy: The Story of the Committee of the 300”).

Many of them are high degree Freemasons, but even these powerful and influential Orders—there is a Circle, within a Circle, within a Circle. These layers of deception allows these Dynastic Families and Elitist to shield their inner workings and identities from the naked eye. There loyalty is power and greed. The recent United States financial Crisis is not incidental or coincidental, but these Invisible Power Brokers have the ability to call the debt in and it is being orchestrated by Federal Reserve and the Central Banks—they never lose money, they create misery in order to make more money. (Reference: Gary Allen and Larry Abraham: “None Dare Call it Conspiracy”)

This writer have been watching US Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson encourage Americans to continue to have faith and hope in the United States economy. These bailouts are estimated to eventually cost the American taxpayers one (1) trillion dollars. Secretary Paulson is a low level front man that takes his orders from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Shalom Bernanke and no one can stop the bleeding, but the invisible men who are behind the Central Banks and right now the bleeding is profitable.

Many like me, have produced documented evidence and has done empirical research to substantiate our findings, which points to the fact, that clandestine forces do exist and they secretly rule over humanity. These present crisis are explainable and some economist or academician are paid to give us abstract and generic answers, but in most instances, even these Talking Heads have little to no knowledge that someone is pulling the purse strings. Our critics have bought into the popular view of the powerful propaganda machines which is the most influential and powerful arm of the Invisible Power Brokers.Our monetary system is a hoax and it was inevitable that money that is created in thin air was a slick magician trick and at some point it would come tumbling down. http://fahimknightsworld.blogspot.com/20...

Pat Robertson in his book, “The New World Order” stated, “American money is also made up of ‘notes’ of the Central bank. Take a dollar bill out of your wallet and read what it says. It is not silver or a gold certificate. It is a ‘note’ issued by America’s Central Bank. If you do for any reason don’t like it, all you will get in exchange is another Federal Reserve note. It is money created out of nothing, printed paper backed only by a private Central Bank. Yet it says, contrary to the Constitution, it is ‘legal tender for all debts, public and private.’ ” (Reference: Pat Robertson; “The New World Order” pg. 120).

These same Invisible Power Brokers, the Central Banks and their Dynastic families are behind the war in Iraq; moreover, stealing oil and hiding their dirty hands behind their low-level operative President George W. Bush and United States Foreign Policy. They are not fully telling the American people that the United States economy is in a recession, but this sounds like a contradiction when the United States taxpayers are spending billions of dollars in a war that America can not win. Why do not the United States just end this unjust war and use some of that money air marked for Iraq to aid the suffering and slumping United States economy? United States Foreign policy is being driven not by Congress or the President, but by a secret Cabal of powerful men. Lastly, Oil theft means more to them then us useless eaters. (Reference: William Cooper: “Behold A Pale Horse”).

I've just finished watching Jon Stewart interviewing Tony Blair on Comedy Central's The Daily Show (click here for the full episode).

It was a good show, and I do think Blair showed a lot of courage and integrity for even daring to show up with someone like Stewart, who's certainly not afraid of asking uncomfortable questions.

However, I was slightly disappointed that Jon kept the conversation too "local". They only talked about 9/11 and the war in Iraq, but he never questioned Blair on the surveillance policies that were enforced on the UK after the WTC attack and their own bombings in 2005; I would have loved Jon to ask Blair about all the CCTV cameras installed in every corner of London, and also about the poor Brazilian immigrant that was shot —viciously, I might add—in the head by British police officers because they mistook him for an islamist terrorist.

What other question would you have liked Jon to ask Blair?
