Présentation :...The Laboratoire européen d’Anticipation Politique Europe 2020,
LEAP/E2020,
now estimates to over 80% the probability that the week of March 20-26,
2006 will be the beginning of the most significant political crisis the
world has known since the Fall of the Iron Curtain in 1989, together
with an economic and financial crisis of a scope comparable with that of
1929. This last week of March 2006 will be the turning-point of a number
of critical developments, resulting in an acceleration of all the
factors leading to a major crisis, disregard any American or Israeli
military intervention against Iran. In case such an intervention is
conducted, the probability of a major crisis to start rises up to 100%,
according to LEAP/E2020.
Extraits : Iran's opening of an Oil Bourse priced in Euros at the end of March 2006
will be the end of the monopoly of the Dollar on the global oil market......
last week of March 2006, will catalyse and turn into a total crisis,
affecting the whole planet in the political, economic and financial
fields, as well as in the military field most probably too:
1. Crisis of confidence in the Dollar
2. Crisis of US financial imbalances
3. Oil crisis
4. Crisis of the American leadership
5. Crisis of the Arabo-Muslim world
6. Global governance crisis
7. European governance crisis

March 20
to 26, 2006: Iran-USA, beginning of a major world crisis, or «the End of
the Western World we have known since 1945».
An Alarm
based on 2 verifiable events
The announcement of this crisis results from the analysis of decisions
taken by the two key-actors of the main on-going international crisis,
i.e. the United States and Iran:
- on the one hand there is the Iranian decision of opening the first oil
bourse priced in Euros on March 20th, 2006 in Teheran, available to all
oil producers of the region ;
- on the other hand, there is the decision of the American Federal
Reserve to stop publishing M3 figures (the most reliable indicator on
the amount of dollars circulating in the world) from March 23, 2006
onward[1].
These two decisions constitute altogether the indicators, the causes and
the consequences of the historical transition in progress between the
order created after World War II and the new international equilibrium
in gestation since the collapse of the USSR. Their magnitude as much as
their simultaneity will catalyse all the tensions, weaknesses and
imbalances accumulated since more than a decade throughout the
international system.
A world
crisis declined in 7 sector-based crises
LEAP/E2020's
researchers and analysts thus identified 7 convergent crises that the
American and Iranian decisions coming into effect during the last week
of March 2006, will catalyse and turn into a total crisis, affecting the
whole planet in the political, economic and financial fields, as well as
in the military field most probably too:
1. Crisis of confidence in the Dollar
2. Crisis of US financial imbalances
3. Oil crisis
4. Crisis of the American leadership
5. Crisis of the Arabo-Muslim world
6. Global governance crisis
7. European governance crisis
The entire process of anticipation of this crisis is described in
detail in coming issues of LEAP/E2020’s confidential letter – the
GlobalEurope Anticipation Bulletin, and in particular in the 2nd
issue to be released on February 16, 2006. These coming issues will
present the detailed analysis of each of the 7 crises, together with a
large set of recommendations intended for various categories of players
(governments and companies, namely), as well as with a number of
operational and strategic advices for the European Union.
Decoding of
the event “Creation of the Iranian Oil Bourse priced in Euros”
However, and in order not to limit this information to decision makers
solely, LEAP/E2020 has decided to circulate widely this official
statement together with the following series of arguments resulting from
work conducted.
Iran's opening of an Oil Bourse priced in Euros at the end of March 2006
will be the end of the monopoly of the Dollar on the global oil market.
The immediate result is likely to upset the international currency
market as producing countries will be able to charge their production in
Euros also. In parallel, European countries in particular will be able
to buy oil directly in their own currency without going though the
Dollar. Concretely speaking, in both cases this means that a lesser
number of economic actors will need a lesser number of Dollars
[2].
This double development will thus head to the same direction, i.e. a
very significant reduction of the importance of the Dollar as the
international reserve currency, and therefore a significant and
sustainable weakening of the American currency, in particular compared
to the Euro. The most conservative evaluations give €1 to $1,30 US
Dollar by the end of 2006. But if the crisis reaches the scope
anticipated by LEAP/E2020, estimates of €1 for $1,70 in 2007 are no
longer unrealistic.
Decoding of
the event “End of publication of the M3 macro-economic indicator”
The end of the publication by the American Federal Reserve of the M3
monetary aggregate (and that of other components)[3],
a decision vehemently criticized by the community of economists and
financial analysts, will have as a consequence to lose transparency on
the evolution of the amount of Dollars in circulation worldwide. For
some months already, M3 has significantly increased (indicating that
« money printing » has already speeded up in Washington), knowing that
the new President of the US Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke, is a
self-acknowledged fan of « money printing »[4].
Considering that a strong fall of the Dollar would probably result in a
massive sale of the US Treasury Bonds held in Asia, in Europe and in the
oil-producing countries, LEAP/E2020 estimates that the American decision
to stop publishing M3 aims at hiding as long as possible two US
decisions, partly imposed by the political and economic choices made
these last years[5]:
. the ‘monetarisation’ of the US debt
. the launch of a monetary policy to support US economic activity.
… two policies to be implemented until at least the October 2006
« mid-term » elections, in order to prevent the Republican Party from
being sent in reeling.
This M3-related decision also illustrates the incapacity of the US and
international monetary and financial authorities put in a situation
where they will in the end prefer to remove the indicator rather than
try to act on the reality.
Decoding of
the aggravating factor “The military intervention against Iran”
Iran holds some significant geo-strategic assets in the current crisis,
such as its ability to intervene easily and with a major impact on the
oil provisioning of Asia and Europe (by blocking the Strait of Ormuz),
on the conflicts in progress in Iraq and Afghanistan, not to mention the
possible recourse to international terrorism. But besides these aspects,
the growing distrust towards Washington creates a particularly
problematic situation. Far from calming both Asian and European fears
concerning the accession of Iran to the statute of nuclear power, a
military intervention against Iran would result in an quasi-immediate
dissociation of the European public opinions[6]
which, in a context where Washington has lost its credibility in
handling properly this type of case since the invasion of Iraq, will
prevent the European governments from making any thing else than follow
their public opinions. In parallel, the rising cost of oil which would
follow such an intervention will lead Asian countries, China first and
foremost, to oppose this option, thus forcing the United States (or
Israel) to intervene on their own, without UN guarantee, therefore
adding a severe military and diplomatic crisis to the economic and
financial crisis.
Relevant
factors of the American economic crisis
LEAP/E2020
anticipate that these two non-official decisions will involve the United
States and the world in a monetary, financial, and soon economic crisis
without precedent on a planetary scale. The ‘monetarisation’ of the US
debt is indeed a very technical term describing a catastrophically
simple reality: the United States undertake not to refund their debt,
or more exactly to refund it in "monkey currency". LEAP/E2020 also
anticipate that the process will accelerate at the end of March, in
coincidence with the launching of the Iranian Oil Bourse, which can only
precipitate the sales of US Treasury Bonds by their non-American
holders.
In this perspective, it is useful to contemplate the following
information[7]:
the share of the debt of the US government owned by US banks fell down
to 1,7% in 2004, as opposed to 18% in 1982. In parallel, the share of
this same debt owned by foreign operators went from 17% in 1982 up to
49% in 2004.
→ Question: How comes that US banks got rid of almost all their share of
the US national debt over the last years?

Moreover, in order to try to avoid the explosion of the "real-estate
bubble" on which rests the US household consumption, and at a time when
the US saving rate has become negative for the first time since 1932 and
1933 (in the middle of the "Great Depression"), the Bush administration,
in partnership with the new owner of the US Federal Reserve and a
follower of this monetary approach, will flood the US market of
liquidities.
Some
anticipated effects of this systemic rupture
According to LEAP/E2020, the non-accidental conjunction of the
Iranian and American decisions, is a decisive stage in the release of a
systemic crisis marking the end of the international order set up after
World War II, and will be characterised between the end of March and the
end of the year 2006 by a plunge in the dollar (possibly down to 1 Euro
= 1,70 US Dollars in 2007) putting an immense upward pressure on the
Euro, a significant rise of the oil price (over 100$ per barrel), an
aggravation of the American and British military situations in the
Middle East, a US budgetary, financial and economic crisis comparable in
scope with the 1929 crisis, very serious economic and financial
consequences for Asia in particular (namely China) but also for the
United Kingdom[8],
a sudden stop in the economic process of globalisation, a collapse of
the transatlantic axis leading to a general increase of all the domestic
and external political dangers all over the world.
For individual dollar-holders, as for trans-national corporations or
political and administrative decision makers, the consequences of this
last week of March 2006 will be crucial. These consequences require some
difficult decisions to be made as soon as possible (crisis anticipation
is always a complex process since it relies on a bet) because once the
crisis begins, the stampede starts and all those who chose to wait lose.
For private individuals, the choice is clear: the US Dollar no longer is
a “refuge” currency. The rising-cost of gold over the last year shows
that many people have already anticipated this trend of the US currency.
Anticipating…
or being swept away by the winds of history
For companies and governments, it is crucial to integrate now action
plans in today's decision-making processes, which can contribute to
soften significantly the "monetary, financial and economic tsunami"
which will break on the planet at the end of next month. To use a simple
image – by the way, one used in the political anticipation scenario
« USA 2010 »[9]
-, the impact of the events of the last week of March 2006 on the
“Western World” we have known since 1945 will be comparable to the
impact of the Fall of the Iron Curtain in 1989 on the “Soviet Block”.
If this Alarm is so precise, it is that LEAP/E2020’s analyses
concluded that all possible scenarios now lead to one single result: we
collectively approach a "historical node" which is henceforth inevitable
whatever the action of international or national actors. At this stage,
only a direct and immediate action on the part of the US administration
aimed at preventing a military confrontation with Iran on the one hand,
and at giving up the idea to monetarise the US foreign debt on the other
hand, could change the course of events. For LEAP/E2020 it is obvious
that not only such actions will not be initiated by the current leaders
in Washington, but that on the contrary they have already chosen "to
force the destiny" by shirking their economic and financial problems at
the expense of the rest of the world. European governments in particular
should draw very quickly all the conclusions from this fact.
For information, LEAP/E2020's original method of political
anticipation has allowed several of its experts to anticipate (and
publish) in particular : in 1988, the approaching end of the Iron
Curtain; in 1997, the progressive collapse in capacity of action and
democratic legitimacy of the European institutional system; in 2002, the
US being stuck in Iraq’s quagmire and above all the sustainable collapse
of US international credibility; in 2003, the failure of the referenda
on the European Constitution. Its methodology of anticipation of
"systemic ruptures" now being well established, it is our duty as
researchers and citizens to share it with the citizens and the European
decision makers; especially because for individual or collective,
private or public players, it is still time to undertake measures in
order to reduce significantly the impact of this crisis on their
positions whether these are economic, political or financial.

The US defaulted on gold, first to its own citizens, later to
foreigners. Is the eurodollar not also a kind of the default? Could
the US declare externally held US dollars non-redeemable within the

Bad News for the American People
Written by on 2006-02-23 05:35:34

Here in the US as far as I know except in a small number of
financial web sites the american public has no idea of what terrible
world shaking events loom next month. Its my opinion the average joe
6pack will do nothing until bad times hit and then it will be too
late. American leaders have shown they are determined to go down the
path to hell no matter what. Its a shame they wont suffer but the
american people will.For these negative extremes to occur it proves
that US leadership is corrupt criminal and war mongoring and
completely out of control of the constitution.Because of their
policies and actions and the extreme favoritism they show an out law
terrorists middle east state and this same out law state has such
power and influence over the appointed corrrupt arrogant presidents
etc US leaders are also puppets of this illegal foreign influence.
The ethnic inference accounting for much of this trouble should be
in any event be missed or discounted. |

The predictions are entirely based on selective economic models,
disregarding politics.
For example: The moment a military action against Iran's nuclear
facilities takes place, all hell will break lose in the Middle East.
And in that moment, investors everywhere will flee to Dollar, as
they always do in a crisis.
The Euro is an entirely political construct with no inherent
stability of its own. |

Uncle Sam has a persistant hacking cough. That cough is caused by
the constant borrowing of foreign capital to fund our deficet
spending...now to the tune of some one point three trillion dollars
a year....that includes our glorious trade deficet and red ink
borrowing by our un-truthfull federal government. Both china and
japan now hold about 1.8 trillion dollars in reserve...how much
longer will these foreign banks and governments keep buying our debt
and holding our ever increasing and depreciating dollars???? Forever
you say?? Really??? The federal debt now is some eight point three
trillion dollars headed for nine then ten trillion in very short
order in a matter of a few years, based on our current path of
travel. When our current "frat boy" leaves the oval office in
january '09, this country will, for all purposes, be insolvent...if
it isn't already. Borrowing the words from the CBS TV
broadcaster--Edward R. Murrow--"good night and good luck". Yes

the US dollar the real reason for Iraq
Written by on 2006-02-24 21:21:48

Iran, Oil and Euros: The War Scenario
Gwynne Dyer, Arab News
Here’s the scenario. On March 20 Iran opens a new “bourse”
(exchange) on which countries all over the world can buy and sell
oil and gas not only for dollars but also for euros. It also
establishes a new oil “marker” (oil pricing standard) based on
Iranian crude and denominated in euros, in open rivalry to the
existing West Texas Intermediate, Norway Brent and UAE Dubai
markers, all of which are calculated in US dollars.
The Iranian bourse is an instant success with countries and
companies that are unhappy about having to hold huge amounts of
overvalued US dollars to finance their oil transactions, all of
which must presently be conducted in that currency. Very large sums
start to shift from the dollar to the euro, although exactly how
much is unknown because the US Federal Reserve System (by pure
coincidence, of course) has chosen late March as the time to stop
publishing the data that would make it easy to know how fast the
hemorrhage was.
But the US government knows, and is deeply alarmed by the danger
that the dollar may be losing its status as the world’s only reserve
currency. Given the huge deficits that plague the US economy, the US
dollar’s value would collapse if other countries began to see it as
just another currency, so the euro must be prevented from emerging
as an alternative reserve currency. In practice, that means the
Iranian experiment with a euro-denominated oil bourse must be
stopped — and the only way to do that is to attack Iran.
Some of the scenario-mongers would change the sequence of events and
have the US launch a “preventive” attack against Iran before it even
opens the bourse. An alternative scenario has Washington persuading
Israel to do the dirty work of actually launching air strikes
against Iran. But a lot of people are genuinely worried that the
whole crisis over Iran’s alleged nuclear weapons program is being
whipped up to give Washington cover for a strike against Iran that
is really meant to halt the bourse. con't.

Along the lines of Gwynne Dyer above is a great video -
In this video , the war in Iraq is examined- the fabrications and
the official reasons, but the US dollar is the real reason that the
US went to war - to preserve dollar supremacy. If you do not wish to
watch the whole video of 45 min, the dollar discussion occurs
starting at 29 min.

Britain has already fallen to these new international criminals, and
Germany as well, and France will be next. The Third Reich is still

international conspiracy!
Old rule in detective work."Follow the Money!" What to do? Gold

How to stop the war.
Instead of getting dragged to the bottom with the Anglo-American
empire why not simply cut the transatlantic connection and seek a
reorientation towards a Eurasian peace.
We must ask, from where is Europe going to get its future energy
supplies?
From a bankrupt USA? From Israel? Or from the countries it is
currently antagonizing in the name of 'the West' or 'the world
community'?
After Gerhard Schroeder left it seems Europe embarked on a
devastating and entirely self-defeating course. Europeans are not
aware of the situation and do not defend their economic and
democratic interests. Instead they are moved by distractions and
smokescreens such as nuclear worries, fake terrorism, 'Muslim'
uprisings and self-inflicted embassy assaults.
The current situation can only be possible through massive
manipulation of minds through global media and equally massive
blackmail operations in the political class. The important task is
to identify and expose those forces and individuals who work against
European democratic interests and have their loyalties elsewhere.
This must be done by people gathering in informal networks and will
not happen in the political layer, the same is true in America.
Currently we should expect nothing good from our leadership who
likely rule under hypnosis with a gun in their back and a bribe in
their pocket.
The truth is that Iran stands to become Europe’s most important
trading partner and currency customer. If European leaders could
come to their senses and break the axis of self-betrayal,
Washington-London-Berlin-Paris, they would be in Teheran 24/7
courting the leaders and helping to protect the oil bourse to
make it bomb safe and set up redundant operations in other countries
such as Norway, Russia and elsewhere. Such a strategy would stop
the war because if it succeeds, there would be absolutely no point
in bombing Iran.
Some very simplistic calculations to illustrate what is at stake:
Iran’s oil reserves are 130 800 000 000 barrels, selling these in
euros instead of dollars at a price of €51/b ($62/b) would enrich
the euro zone economy with a value of €6681 billion ($23 000 for
each citizen in the euro zone (291 million people)). This is the sum
of the goods and services foreign countries would need to export to
Europe in exchange for the currency needed to buy the Iranian oil.
Europe lost €5712 billion (€20 000/citizen) in Iraq when USA
reversed Saddam’s rightful decision to sell Iraqi oil in euros.
However the Iranian oil bourse is not about Iran or Iraq but
potentially the entire output from OPEC.
Today this wealth is going to the American economy to finance their
war on the rest of the world.

Say Goodbye to Tehran & Damascus
Written by S. Hutchins on 2006-02-27 10:54:32
Not kidding...the world's economy is fueled by two things, guns or
butter. Guns are much more profitable, wars fuel economies. Hitler
brought Germany out of the depression by building a war machine. The
US built a bigger machine and a stronger war/post war economy.
That's why the US still dominates the world economy. The US is in
moral & economic decline; Europe is on the rise. This is what I see
coming....the US & Israel will attack Tehran & Damascus
simultaneously. Russia, whether it wants to or not, will be forced
to defend both. Russia and the US get involved in a nuclear exchange
(WWIII). Europe & China are left standing. The Islamic countries
will be in chaos, but its oil will be its salvation. Europe will
enforce a middle east peace. For the sake of the oil. After some
years Europe & China and the Islamic nations will initiate WWIV. By

Maybe Euros - although befoe the euro began

Maybe I should do likewise?
Since there are also reports of a tidal wave affecting the Atlantic

Combine that with utter disregard for our Constitution by the vast

To Brian in Orstayra,
Brian,
First, don't be alarmed. Be alert, but not alarmed.
Here in Orstraya we are in good hands. Mr Howard power walks EVERY
morning and is constantly thinking of the good of His people,
especially when power walking. You can tell that by the sweat on His
brow. And if, G*d forbid, (I put the * in 'coz Americans are very
funny about calling G*d God) Mr Howard should Pass Away, we have Mr
Costello to fill the breach which I believe he would do in a flash
or quicker and would endevour not to smirk.
So don't worry Brian. Harm will NOT befall us. We WILL NOT decend
into the hell that awaits Americans who will get their just desserts
for indiscriminate shopping at Wal Mart and getting obese on Big
Macs paid for by using their homes as culinary ATM's for take-aways.
We, Brian, we Orstrayians, are made of sterner stuff. WE DO NOT BEND
OVER! FOR ANYBODY!! Don't be lonely - you are amongst friends.
Indeed, I am willing to be your friend and mentor in your time of
need.
BTW I note in passing that you have a stash of gold. Is it safely
stored? Perhaps I can give you some timely advise on this, as a
friend and of course at NO charge. Please email me. Regards

Why does WW3 have to start in the last week of March?
Do you think people will feel safe trading oil on the Iranian bourse
when there is a threat of the place being blown up?
And what makes the Euro a superior currency to the USD? The European
s are inflating things just as much as the Americans. If people have
such a preference to hold and trade in Euros over dollars, the
Euro/dollar exchange rate would be 10, or 50, not 1.20,
I suspect the US will attempt a few things that do not involve
military conflict first.
Things such as infecting the Iranian oil bourse's trading system
with a virus. Lose records of who holds a position in what and when.
Basically undermine the credibility of the bourse.
Alternatively, i see no reason why the US could not just take a wait
and see approach. There is alot of chatter on message boards on the
Internet about how this Iranian oil bourse is going to be a raging
success...but why? There will be low liquidity, massive spreads, in
a country no financial trading history,...and there there is the the
small issue of apathy. Why change when there is no apparent benifit,
only risks?
The whole thing will likely turn out to be a fizzer.

Don't fall for this.
Politics do not control banks. Banks control politics. The
leadership of US or EU does nothing less or more that the
international banks tells them. Banks know no borders. The trick is
to finnance all sides so the bank trick with creating perpetual
credit can work.
Dumping US into armagedon does no good to the power to be. Who will
be buying the Chinese goods? Without selling the majority of their
goods, how will China buy commodities (short of millitary invasion)?
With what? Yuan? EU they don't have?
The fear plays well with the banks. The creation of credit requires
people buying. Fear is the best catalyst for buying. Even buying
gold plays well with the banks since money spend on gold are
additional money spend besides money for food or goods. Once gold
reaches a peak (which may be quite high this time) it is as easy to
dump it into nothing. And believe me they will dump it once it
serves their purpose and most of the privite saving will be tied in
it.
Fear, fear and buy buy. This is the motto these days. Don't you see
that the advocates of doom and gloom always at the end say buy gold,
buy silver. Why? For your own good sake? Hahahaha.
Don't fall for this scam. US economy will not be permited to sink.
Banks will not shoot themselves in the leg. Their scam works very
well and it works only if US is buing. There is no replacement for
US buying. |

Every country out there always cries for our help when they get into

chinese government you won't have the oppurtunity or the right to
complain about your lot in life.
For my part I think the USA should kick the United Nations out of
our country, and stop funding them. We should bring all our military
forces home and let the people of the world take care of their own
problems. No matter how inhumane that might become. The USA can
protect itself and get by on less oil from the middle east, if it
has too. We can ration oil and make alternative fuel from corn and
grain, but remember north america is the bread basket of the world,
so the rest of you can eat our dust. As for our debt, you know all
the money we owe to foreign countries, how many times has the USA
lent money, gave away money, forgave debt, etc and all we get for it
is a kick in the teeth.
The USA should declare itself debt free. Other countries have done
it a number of times without any serious consequence. P.S. If you
don't like AMERICA, leave or don't visit. |

The gold standard is no a workable deal anymore. There is only so
much gold. period. To support growing economies and communities, the
USA went off the gold standard, and now we stand on our integrity,
of product and action. So going back to a gold standard is
impractical. Now when we need more money, we print it up. If
governments want to just drop or write off our debt, they can! They
do it all the time. It is just fugures and the movement of goods,
services and industry just go on. Would it be really nive for the
global banks just to forgive all debts?? Clean slate! We could. Many
countries have done such for their countrymen.
So buying gold is not the answer. It may help during a short time,
but since the majority will not have any, you willl need things for
barter.
How this all goes down is up to each of us. This is not a movie
sequel...it is our very life.
Why do we allow our government to delclare war when we cannot pay
for it? We can't, but there are those who plan it!
There may be some rumblings in March/April but for now it does not
seem catostrophic.....why? Because it is planned this way. The
collapse of the US economy is well on its way, and this will be one
domino in a row of many. The collapse will be more visible in
August.
The US needs to have their faithful tax payers pay for this year of
folley..in April. So they will not act or act like anything is
happening. You will hear clammerings, but they will be labled
unamerican, thus swept under the rug.
We are a Golbal community and all the walls need to fall down that
separate us from them. it is US...all if us. And although the US
will fall tha hardest, it also can come back much stronger and more
ready to embrace our global economy.

Buy Gold - Then What?
Written by on 2006-02-28 06:14:52

Ok so I go out and buy all this gold and silver. I spent paper fiat
USD on it (my bank sez it's there, anyway). So gold goes up to say
$700US/oz (or more) and sliver goes up to $12US/oz (or more). Can I
buy a loaf of bread with it? "Say, buddy, can ya make change for a
10 oz bar?" They say "Buy low - sell high". So, since I can't EAT
gold or silver, and nobody will take it as a currency (it hasn't
been a reserve standard since 1971 when Nixon gave the rest of the
world the finger) I have a COMMODITY, traded on the world market,
bought and sold in a variety of fiat currencies. What is it really
worth? Whatever "the market" sez it's worth.
Now, with the Fed discontinuing the publishing of M3, who, then,
will know exactly how much fiat money is out there? Why did the
Japanese investors buy so much gold a few months ago to push Gold
over $500US/oz? Are certain central bankers thinking of basing their
currency back to a gold standard? If the USD goes bust
(hyperinflation) then is my $500/oz gold now worth a devalued $1000
and have the same purchasing power? It's all smoke and mirrors and
Fed parlor tricks. The Morgans and the Rothschilds will have their
way and war-profit like they have for a century or so, pitting one
country against the other for fun and profit.

As much as the coming war with Iran has everything to do with
monetary policy, our (the U.S.A.) overall societal problems have
everything to do with the "original intent" of the Constitution.
Specifically blatant violation of Art. 1, Sec. 10...
Quote:
To the extent that we participate in an economic system the
Constitution was framed to prevent, we are not a law-abiding nation.
This in itself sufficiently explains why law enforcement has become
so unreliable, and will only worsen until the lessons of
A Caveat Against Injustice
are taken to heart by a new generation of Americans.—FTS (Nov. 29,
2001)
Perhaps, this first sentence is worth repeating...
Quote:
To the extent that we participate in an economic system the
Constitution was framed to prevent, we are not a law-abiding nation.
People, until WE (the U.S.A.) decide to set right and follow Art. 1,
Sec. 10 the way our founders intended, all other discussions of the
Constitution are moot. The only person that I know to date that has
done so continually (unfortunately, to mostly deaf ears), is Hon.
Dr. Ron Paul. I don't know about any of the rest of this cyber
community. For myself, I cannot reconcile in my mind how our nation
believes that it can continue like this without serious
repercussions. To violate a sacred (and yes I do mean sacred
[biblical precedent]) tenet of the founding of this once great
nation can only eventually bring grave consequences to this
nation and it's people... |

How Many Rations To Buy? Here's an Answ
Written by Brian. on 2006-03-04 11:48:19

To the anonymous writer who asked "How many rations to buy i.e.
water food etc" for the coming financial storm, I would say this: On
one hand we could say buy 6 months to a year worth of rations - only
because it would be impractical to store much more. So, if you are
to 'stock-up' then this would probably the best guesstimate. On the
other hand we could be looking at simply another Millenium Bug scare
- remember that one from the turn of the century? The scaremongers
were REALLY left with egg on their faces. Me? I'm somewhere in the
middle. If people like Warren Buffet can get a billion dollar bet on
the US dollar so wrong (in 2005) then forget the rest of us trying
to postulate on the future. Yes, I have bet over half the farm on
the gold price tripling but that's all I've done, through stocks and
some direct gold. I'm in Australia so I may be insulated somewhat
from any fallout (fingers crossed). I'm not a political animal but I
do have to say this Bush guy worries me. Seems like a likeable guy
with which to have a beer but not too smart and from most reports
making the wrong decisions with his once great nation and its
resources. Keep your faith in God and do all you can to reduce your
debt - I think this will prove to be the very best strategy. Get the
hell out of those absolutely ridiculous mortgages they have in the
US if you are in one and get defensive in your financial
allocations. It could be a year or two before it hits the fan or it
could be April'06 - either way enjoy the good times while they are
here and enjoy your quality time. it does, however, look like it is
definitely going to hit the fan bigtime though at some point. Cheers
from Down Under - we're all with the US people here in spirit - the
bad may come but like always the indominable US people will come
back stronger and better. Even if it is to a GOLD standard of world
finance! Take care - |

This poem says it all. Run scared, because the sky is falling?? You
are creating your own monsters and bringing them with you along the
way. How about a reality check.....The Islamic world is ruining
civilization because they cannot survive in the world the West
created. This is their plan and they assume their mission on this
planet.
Nothing short of melting the Middle East down to a huge piece of
glass and skating right over the top of their ass will stop them.
Will oil survive a nuclear winter?? |

You know, I get tired of arrogant, ignorant people(Americans) that
shout their heads off making America look bad. Granted, we probably
deserve it. (On the Mark, eh?). Of course I don't like extremism of
any kind... but yeesh, stop acting like the world depends on us long
enough to pay attention to the topic--does the information in this
report accurately predict a crisis? And if so, what should we do?
Of course, I'm terrible when it comes to this kind of thing--so
ignore me if it makes things smoother. |
Not the end of anything!

What a bunch of crap! Even if the worst case scenario happens as
this article says it will, don't you think America has the
technology to change our oil needing transportation machines?
PLEASE!!!!
All America has to do is change our current technology which is
dependent on oil, to another form of energy...whatever it may be!
Worst case scenario described here, yes possible, but highly
unlikely! Most likely scenario to happen- the world will keep
turning as its done for millions of years.... GO EAT SHIT AND GET A
REAL BRAIN PEOPLE. |

Ithaka, well said. They are backwards and will NEVER see things
normally. It's like trying to reason with a schitzophrenic who had
been brainwashed by his/her rich ruler who pays the local Mullahs to
to keep their pea brains in line, so they don't attack. Their
theorytale about Israel ruling the US and Israel and the US behind
911 is another of their sick stories touted by their THICK media -
along the lines of Jews killing and drinking their arab baties
blood. Anyone who believes that the sun sets in a miry pit every
night - well, the'll believe anything!
As for the US...we need to just become self-sufficient again and
stop buying all the crap Made in China - just to save a buck. Put
folks in office that will tax the hell out of the corporate traitors
and force them back onshore with the jobs. This government hasn't
done a single thing to make this happen. Too many backhanders from
the corporate elite I suspect. They need kicked in the butt. The
pathetic Democrats won't either. They'll just tax the hell out of
those of us who are trying to get ahead and hand it to their voting
pool - who want to sit on their fat lazy asses and collect just
enough welfare to keep going but to never get ahead. This is the
Democrats plant to keep them from becoming Republicans! But hey,
these folks keep electing the Democrats. AH, but the Democrats don't
have to live in their neighborhoods now do they? Pathetic idiots.
Don't think for a moment that they too won't take corporate
backhanders.
I lived in the UK for 7 years and I watched the Democrats literally
copy the attacks on Tony Blair about 3 days later. They would use
the EXACT same lines on George Bush. So, No plan and NO IMAGINATION
Let's get real. They don't want to change the government. They want
to BE the government.
As for the Europeans? Well, folks, soon you will be chipped and will
be living a robotic life where Brussels tells you when you can poop
and when you can't. All because pathetic France and Germany are
hungry for the power they ONCE had. Oh, if only they could be
relevant again! They are the reason our sons and daughters are dying
in Iraq. No morals.....just deals with Saddam. So, best thing they
can do is make allies with the Arabs and the likes of that idiot in
South Africa and drip out a constant Anti-American lefty liberal
media so that the majority of your citizenship (who have never been
to America) will hate America. Great plan. Hope you don't birth
another Hitler. We won't be there this time to put out the fire. Oh,
and I give you 15 years and the radical minorities in your midst
will be your majorities. Won't be so great when your women have to
wear long black coverings and can't expose their faces. Oh Sharia
law. Won't it just be so liberating?
Oh, and then there is Russia. Another has-been who HATES us because
we still have some power. So they do their typical transparent crap
and side with our enemies and send bombs and technology to blow up
our troops in Iraq. Never trust Putin.
Then of course we have India. Hey, at least they hate the Islamic
morons who want to rule the world...so I say give them nuclear
technology. After all, it's us or someone else and since Turkey has
lined up with Russia, well?
Then of course there is China...good ol China. They get fat from our
money. They build up an arsonal to eventually blow us up. They make
deals with the Sudan and with Iran, and our pals in Venezuela. But
their evil asses sit on the security council, so forget them ever
voting for sanctions. This is why the killing went on in the Sudan.
Because China and Pakistan had oil deals there. So it's all about
money folks. Politics = money & power. Ordinary Joes mean absolutey
nothing more than a tax base for these trashy politicians and world
rulers.

Ammunition
Written by on 2006-03-06 19:38:23
Ammunition will be the currency of the 21st century. Oh, that's
right. Eurabians are not allowed to have guns and ammunition.
Instead they castigate the U.S. from their armchairs while the
Americans are busy at the local shooting range. Remember this.
Slaves are not permitted to own guns. But free men have them. We
have the guns, so I care not who makes the laws. Got to go now.
After work I have to go to the coin shop and buy some gold. Then I'm
off to the gun shop to get some ammunition for target practice,
while the Europeans contemplate how best to appease the Arabs who
are debasing their culture and liquidating their once proud history.

Time for us to get back to basics, save open-pollinated seed, stop
buying crap, eat what is in season, learn to grow your own food,
even in cities. Look at the Cuban example after the Americans tried
to starve them out, they are expert on organic growing, mostly done
in raised beds in the cities. You can't eat gold, silver or
diamonds, overcome your sickness with pure food, and after all, us
fellas in NZ have got thousands of possums to eat - we won't starve!
Give some thought to sustainable living, protect Mother Earth - the
best thing we can all do is stop deifying money - a healthy family
is worth more than a truckload of gold. |

Truth or Dare!
Written by chrysos on 2006-03-07 18:08:12

Whether you believe these predictions or not it is safe to say that
there are major changes in the world as we speak. Those changes are
not neccesarily on paper or on the internet but all around us. Do
you also walk in the streets of our civilized societies and feel
something is not quite right. This is proof that man is a collective
irrespective of race or religion. That people have a natural
instinct to realise that there is trouble brewing everywhere. Crime,
poverty etc. is not only a big problem in your own countries, as the
media would like you to percieve but a gobal problem that
governments can solve but fail to. Why? Many people are worried
about what is comming next but the fact of the matter is that we
have been warned now for years and years that its going to hit the
fan, but we chose to worry about our sports our jobs and whether we
have better cars than the jones's. Our idea of freedom is much
diffirent to those who fought world wars and I have a feeling that
in our generation we will realize the cost of true freedom.
Also note that when the superpowers of the world become unstable
every member of some oppressed orginization would see this
instability as a pretext to claim any prize they think they deserve.
(White supremacy, religious orgs terrorist basically)
The world is on a knife edge an d everyone knows it. It is always
interesting to see that there are so many people blissfully in
denial
of how we asdk our leaders to lead us on the road to hell.
Kind regards From South Africa and may th egoos people of the world
survive. Peace to all. |
