We need to face the facts - heed the warnings. Throughout the centuries the people we called heroes and Founding Fathers actually said the following quotes. See for yourself as they describe our current world in their past warnings.

"Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is
force! Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful
master." - George Washington
"I am convinced that
those societies (such as the Native American peoples) which
live without government enjoy in their general mass an
infinitely greater degree of happiness than those who live
under the European governments. Among the former, public
opinion is in the place of law, & restrains morals as
powerfully as laws ever did anywhere. Among the latter, under
pretence of governing they have divided their nations into two
classes, wolves & sheep. I do not exaggerate." -
Thomas Jefferson
"The modern theory of the
perpetuation of debt has drenched the earth with blood, and
crushed its inhabitants under burdens ever accumulating."
- Thomas Jefferson
"I hope we shall crush in its
birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations, which dare
already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and
bid defiance to the laws of our country." - Thomas
Jefferson
"I believe that banking institutions are
more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already
they have raised up a moneyed aristocracy that has set the
government at defiance. The issuing power (of money) should be
taken away from the banks and restored to the people to whom
it properly belongs." - Thomas Jefferson
"The
system of banking we have both equally and ever reprobated. I
contemplate it as a blot left in all our constitutions, which,
if not covered, will end in their destruction. I sincerely
believe, with you...that the principle of spending money to be
paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling
futurity on a large scale." - Thomas Jefferson
"To
take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn
around the powers of Congress is to take possession of a
boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any
definition. The incorporation of a bank, and the powers
assumed by this bill [chartering the first Bank of the United
States] have not, in my opinion, been delegated to the United
States by the Constitution. They are not among the powers
specially enumerated." - Thomas Jefferson
"I wish
it were possible to obtain a single amendment to our
Constitution - taking from the Federal government their power
of borrowing (from privately-owned corporate banks)." -
Thomas Jefferson
"We are undone, my dear sir, if
legislation is still permitted which makes our money, much or
little, real or imaginary, as the moneyed interests shall
choose to make it." - Thomas Jefferson
"All the
perplexities, confusions, and distresses in America arise, not
from defects in the Constitution or confederation, not from
want of honor or virtue, as much as from downright ignorance
of the nature of coin, credit, and circulation." - John
Adams
"Liberty cannot be preserved without a general
knowledge among the people, who have a right...and a desire to
know; but besides this, they have a right, an indisputable,
unalienable, indefeasible, divine right to that most dreaded
and envied kind of knowledge, I mean of the characters and
conduct of their rulers." - John Adams
"We, the
People, are the rightful masters of both the Congress and the
Courts. Not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow
the men who have perverted it." - Abraham Lincoln
"I have two great enemies, the southern army in front
of me and the financial institutions in the rear. Of the two,
the one in the rear is the greatest enemy. The money power
preys upon the nation in times of peace, and conspires against
it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy,
more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy.
It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods
or throw light upon its crimes." - Abraham Lincoln
"The Government should create, issue, and circulate
all the currency and credits needed to satisfy the spending
power of the Government and the buying power of consumers. The
privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the
supreme prerogative of Government, but it is the Government's
greatest creative opportunity. By the adoption of these
principles...the taxpayers will be saved immense sums of
interest [by not having to borrow from privately-owned
corporate banks]...Money will cease to be master and become
the servant of humanity. Democracy will rise superior to the
money power." - Abraham Lincoln
"I see in the near
future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to
tremble for the safety of my country. Corporations have been
enthroned, an era of corruption in high places will follow,
and the money power of the country will endeavour to prolong
its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people (e.g.,
by pitting the cooperation-oriented political left against the
competition-oriented political right), until the wealth is
aggregated in the hands of a few, and the Republic is
destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety
of my country than ever before, even in the midst of the war."
- Abraham Lincoln
"Corporate entities are persons,
under the law. They are separate persons from the very real
human persons who own them and run them. We have the Supreme
Court of the United States to thank for this perversion.
Through corruption of our government and courts, corporations
subverted their original intended purpose and acquired the
legal status of "natural persons" while also preserving their
limited-liability legal protections (which gives them more
legal powers than citizens have). This subversion was
institutionalized in an 1886 Supreme Court decision of which
Justice William O. Douglas would later write, "There was no
history, logic, or reason given to support that view." Thus
corporations gained Bill of Rights protections and more, even
before women and minorities had full protection." -
[Anonymous]
"Unless you become more watchful in your
states and check this spirit of monopoly and thirst for
exclusive privileges, you will in the end find that the most
important powers of government have been given or bartered
away, and the control of your dearest interests have been
passed into the hands of these corporations." - Andrew
Jackson
"If congress has the right under the
Constitution to issue paper money, it was given them to use
themselves, not to be delegated to individuals or
corporations." - Andrew Jackson
"You
(International Bankers) are a den of vipers and thieves. I
intend to rout you out, and by the Eternal God, I will rout
you out. If the American people only understood the rank
injustice of our money and banking system, there would be a
revolution before morning." - Andrew Jackson
"The
bold effort the present bank has made to control the
Government, the distress it has wantonly produced...are but
premonitions of the fate that awaits the American People
should they be deluded into a perpetuation of this institution
[The Bank of the United States], or the establishment of
another like it." - Andrew Jackson
"History
records that the money changers have used every form of abuse,
intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their
control over governments by controlling money and its
issuance." - James Madison
"Permit me to issue and
control the money of a nation and I care not who makes the
laws." â?? Mayer Amschel Rothschild, founder of the
Rothschild international banking dynasty, 1790
"Whomsoever controls the volume of money in any
country is absolute master of all industry and commerce and
when you realize that the entire system is very easily
controlled, one way or another, by a few powerful men at the
top, you will not have to be told how periods of inflation and
depression originate." - James Garfield
"I am
afraid that ordinary citizens will not like to be told that
the banks can, and do, create and destroy money. And they who
control the credit of the nation direct the policy of
governments, and hold in the hollow of their hands the destiny
of the people." - Reginald McKenna, Chairman of the
Midland Bank in London
"From the days of
Spartacist-Wieshaupt to those of Karl Marx, and down to
Trotsky, Bela Kuhn, Rosa Luxemburg, and Emma Goldman, this
world conspiracy for the overthrow of civilization and for the
reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested
development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality,
has been steadily growing. This conspiracy played a definite
recognizable role in the tragedy of the French revolution. It
has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during
the 19th century. And now at last this band of extraordinary
personalities from the underworld of the great cities of
Europe and America have gripped the Russian people by the hair
of their head and have become the undisputed masters of that
enormous empire." - Winston Churchill in the Illustrated
Sunday Herald, February 8, 1920
"Behind the October
Revolution there are more influential personalities than the
thinkers and executors of Marxism." - Lenin
"Marxists can always be relied upon to defend the
International Bankers, to their dying breath, by portraying
capitalism as some sort of vague, accidental ideological
abstraction that either everybody or nobody is truly
responsible for, rather than as a very specific, profoundly
evil system perpetrated by very specific individuals, who are
acting with full intention to drain the lifeblood from the
Republic until it is dead. This fact alone should be enough to
raise suspicion of the Marxists' real intention, which seems
to be to focus primarily on property-based 'class' conflict
without ever clearly defining the real methods by which the
ruling 'class' stays in power, so that they can attempt to
convince the public that these methods are some kind of magic
that only Marxist intellectuals can understand and con them
into replacing the existing tyrannical order with a communist
tyrannical order. The Marxists are totally anti-democratic and
seem to truly envy the money power more than they despise it."

"If I told you I thought the world
was controlled by a handful of capitalists and corporate
bosses, you would say I was a left-winger, but if I told you
who I thought the capitalists and corporate bosses were, you
would say I was far right." - Anonymous Anarchist Black
Blocker
"Left and Right are monolithic ideas -
colossal, abstract, and, as their religious origins suggest,
cosmic. They are part of the darker side of humanity that
replaces the specific with the general, the personal with the
impersonal. If you wanted to find a way of making certain that
people would have as little as possible in common, there would
be no better way than to divide them, not into ten or three or
four, but into two. Dual division turns the largest possible
sections of humanity against one another, often causing
neighbors and compatriots to have nothing to say to one
another. No regeneration of community can begin without a
careful demolition of Left and Right; nor can this tearing
down be relinquished to academic abstraction, technical
philosophy, government, corporations, or ideology. Nothing can
be built without a new politics - least of all with a politics
that refers outward to ideas of Heaven and Hell rather than
inward to the experience of daily life." - Hugh Graham, in
his book "The Vestibule of Hell: Why Left and Right Have Never
Made Sense in Politics and Life"
"This isn't just your
normal case of shrill, success-hating, bleeding-heart,
eat-the-rich, lawsuit-happy, commie-liberal bed-wetters versus
slack-jawed, pinheaded, war-mongering, Bible-thumping,
woman-hating, eco-rapist knuckle-draggers. But it is politics
as usual." - [Unknown]
"Obviously, neither
communism nor fascism has any interest whatsoever in
democracy. True democracy can only emerge from a radically
centered anarchist-libertarian philosophy, which is the
greatest enemy of both of those extremes. The real struggle
that is going on is the struggle for democracy against ALL
tyranny, not merely 'class' struggle." - [Anonymous]
"The world is governed by very different personages to
what is imagined by those who are not themselves behind the
scenes." - Benjamin Disraeli, Prime Minister of Britain
"The real rulers in Washington are invisible and
exercise power from behind the scenes." - Justice Felix
Frankfurter, Former U.S. Supreme Court Justice
"The
real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a
financial element in the large centers has owned the
government of the U.S. since the days of Andrew Jackson."
- Franklin D. Roosevelt
"Since I entered politics,
I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some
of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of
commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know
that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so
watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they
better not speak above their breath when they speak in
condemnation of it." - Woodrow Wilson, 1913
"The
real menace of our republic is this invisible government which
like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state
and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under
cover of a self created screen...At the head of this octopus
are the Rockefeller Standard Oil interests and a small group
of powerful banking houses generally referred to as
international bankers. The little coterie of powerful
international bankers virtually run the United States
government for their own selfish purposes. They practically
control both political parties." - John F. Hylan, New York
City Mayor, 1922
"The rich will strive to establish
their dominion and enslave the rest. They always did...they
always will. They will have the same effect here as elsewhere,
if we do not, by the power of government, keep them in their
proper spheres." - Gouvernor Morris, head of the committee
that wrote the final draft of the U.S. Constitution
"This (Federal Reserve) Act establishes the most
gigantic trust [monopoly] on earth. When the President
(Woodrow Wilson) signs this bill, the invisible government by
the Monetary Power will be legalized. The people may not know
it immediately, but the day of reckoning is only a few years
removed. The trusts will soon realize that they have gone too
far even for their own good. The people must make a
declaration of independence to relieve themselves from the
Monetary Power. This they will be able to do by taking control
of Congress. Wall Streeters could not cheat us if you Senators
and Representatives did not make a humbug of Congress...The
greatest crime of Congress is its currency system. The worst
legislative crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking
bill. The caucus and the party bosses have again operated and
prevented the people from getting the benefit of their own
government." - Congressman Charles A. Lindbergh, Sr., 1913
"I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my
country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system
of credit. 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 free opinion,
no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the
majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a
small group of dominant men." - Woodrow Wilson
"If
monopoly persists, monopoly will always sit at the helm of
government. I do not expect monopoly to restrain itself. If
there are men in this country big enough to own the government
of the United States, they are going to own it." - Woodrow
Wilson
"I have never seen more Senators express
discontent with their jobs...I think the major cause is that,
deep down in our hearts, we have been accomplices in doing
something terrible and unforgiveable to our wonderful country.
Deep down in our heart, we know that we have given our
children a legacy of bankruptcy. We have defrauded our country
to get ourselves elected." - Senator John Danforth
"When a government is dependent upon bankers for
money, they and not the leaders of the government control the
situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that
takes...Money has no motherland; financiers are without
patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain."
- Napoleon
"Capital must protect itself in every
way...Debts must be collected and loans and mortgages
foreclosed as soon as possible. When through a process of law
the common people have lost their homes, they will be more
tractable and more easily governed by the strong arm of the
law applied by the central power of leading financiers. People
without homes will not quarrel with their leaders. This is
well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an
imperialism of capitalism to govern the world. By dividing the
people we can get them to expend their energies in fighting
over questions of no importance to us except as teachers of
the common herd." - Taken from the Civil Servants' Year
Book, "The Organizer", January 1934
"It [Central Bank]
gives the National Bank almost complete control of national
finance. Those few who understand the system [check book money
and credit] will either be so interested in its profits, or so
dependant on its favours, that there will be no opposition
from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of
the people, mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous
advantage that capital derives from the system, will bear its
burden without complaint, and perhaps without even suspecting
that the system is inimical [contrary] to their interests."
- Rothschild Brothers of London, 1863
"...the lord
and master of the money markets of the world, and of course
virtually lord and master of everything else. He literally
held the revenues of southern Italy in pawn, and monarchs and
ministers of all countries courted his advice and were guided
by his suggestions." - Benjamin Disraeli, Prime Minister
of Britain, describing Baron Nathan Rothschild in his novel,
"Coningsby: Or The New Generation"
"When the conflict
with France ended (at the battle of Waterloo) the House of
Rothschild was in control of British finance and was the
official banker of the British Government. This odd financial
octopus was acknowledged to be in some respects the greatest
power on the earth and was acknowledged by some writers as the
"Sixth Great Power of Europe"." - E.C. Knuth, in his book
"The Empire of The City"
"The shareholders of these
banks which own the stock of the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York are the people who have controlled our political and
economic destinies since 1914. They are the Rothschilds,
Lazard Freres (Eugene Mayer), Israel Sieff, Kuhn Loeb Company,
Warburg Company, Lehman Brothers, Goldman Sachs, the
Rockefeller family, and the J.P. Morgan interests." -
Eustace Mullins, in his book "The Secrets Of The Federal
Reserve"
"Bill Gates is not the 'richest man in the
world' by a long shot. His 50 billion dollar fortune (give or
take) is virtually nothing compared to the wealth and economic
power of the House of Rothschild. Baron Jacob Rothschild (who
controls the Rothschild banking dynasty) is owed approximately
half of the U.S. national debt (which is now some 6 trillion
dollars) because the privately-owned Rothschild Bank and its
proxies have a 51 percent ownership and controlling interest
in the U.S. Federal Reserve System; and this 3 trillion dollar
amount obviously does not even include the debt that many
other nations ultimately owe to the Rothschild banking
network. The interest payments alone provide the Rothschild
Bank with 100 billion dollars per year. The reason that the
Rothschild dynasty remains generally obscure to the public is
because virtually all of their assets are privately-owned and
they are very carefully protected from public scrutiny by
various ways and means. It has been estimated that the House
of Rothschild, directly or indirectly, controls a very
substantial portion of the 35 trillion dollars in total
overall spending power that exists in the world today." -
[Anonymous]
"To ignore the pivotal role played by
particular individuals who are in positions of power is to do
violence to historical accuracy. A recognition that the course
of economic events can be influenced by individuals who have
the imagination and the power to take advantage of prevailing
conditions does not constitute acceptance of a 'conspiracy'
theory of history." - John Blair, Former Chief Economist
for the U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Anti-Trust and Monopoly
"The modern banking system manufactures money out of
nothing. The process is perhaps the most astounding piece of
sleight of hand that was ever invented. Banking was conceived
in iniquity and was born in sin. The Bankers own the earth.
Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create
deposits, and with the flick of the pen they will create
enough deposits to buy it all back again. However, take this
great power away from them, and all the great fortunes like
mine disappear, and they ought to disappear, for this would be
a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to
remain the slaves of Bankers and pay the cost of your own
slavery, let them continue to create money and control
credit." - Sir Josiah Stamp, President of the Bank of
England in the 1920s, the second richest man in Britain
"A civilization based on a system of parasitic usury
economics will ultimately destroy itself, because
fractional-reserve 'banking', combined with compound
'interest', is truly and totally contrary to the modern
"Establishment" economic theory that it represents some kind
of perpetual-motion machine. Our economic system was not
designed to, nor was it intended to, function honorably for
the benefit and general prosperity of all; it was specifically
designed to create a nation of debt slaves under the control
of a molesting central bank. The perpetrators of the system
understand fully that it is finite and must inevitably
collapse in a state of insoluble debt, but by that point they
expect to have gained full and indisputable control over
everything. The 450 richest people in the world have financial
assets equal to the combined wealth of the 3 billion poorest;
half of all humanity. The only possible explanation for this
is that the international economic system has been subverted
and corrupted by fully intentional activities, directed
towards undermining national governments and creating
institutionalized, privately-owned central banks throughout
the world." - [Anonymous]
"This is a staggering
thought. We are completely dependent on the commercial banks.
Someone has to borrow every dollar we have in circulation,
cash or credit. If the banks create ample synthetic money we
are prosperous; if not, we starve. We are absolutely without a
permanent money system. When one gets a complete grasp of the
picture, the tragic absurdity of our hopeless position is
almost incredible, but there it is. It is the most important
subject intelligent persons can investigate and reflect upon.
It is so important that our present civilization may collapse
unless it becomes widely understood and the defects remedied
very soon." - Robert H. Hamphill, Credit Manager, Atlanta
Federal Reserve Bank
"The basis of money in today's
world is not simply the trading of one thing of obvious value
(say, a gold coin) for another thing of obvious value (for
example, a keg of beer) which, in fact, would be more a form
of barter than a modern day monetary purchase. In the modern
economy, the value of money is based strictly on mutual faith
and faith alone - faith in pieces of paper signed by a central
banker as having whatever value he decides to give them, such
as is the case with Federal Reserve Notes. This faith that the
paper has some kind of value is basically a game of "let's
pretend" on the part of the banker supported only by the fact
that the banker has seized control of the government and he
will not tolerate any uncontrolled standard of exchange to
compete with his official monopoly of interest-bearing usury
'money'. In essence, this means that every time you spend a
Federal Reserve Note you are making a very profound expression
of faith that the central banker is a kind of 'god' who can
create value out of absolutely nothing because this is his
'holy' privelege. Not only that, but you also become
perpetually, irreversibly indebted to him, as a form of
'worship', for his creating of the 'money' by the usury that
he charges you for this 'service' (e.g., the U.S. 6 trillion
dollar debt). This is capitalism." - [Anonymous]
"There is a large class of people who believe that
paper can be, and ought to be, made into money without any
promise or hope of redemption; that a note should be printed:
"This is a dollar," and be made a legal tender. I regard this
as a mild form of lunacy, and have no disposition to debate
with men who indulge in such delusions, which have prevailed
to some extent, at different times, in all countries, but
whose life has been brief, and which have shared the fate of
other popular delusions. The Supreme Court only maintained the
constitutionality of the legal tender promise to pay a dollar
by a divided court, and on the ground that it was issued in
the nature of a forced loan, to be redeemed upon the payment
of a real dollar; that is, so many grains of silver or gold. I
therefore dismiss such wild theories, and speak only to those
who are willing to assume, as an axiom, that gold and silver
or coined money, have been proven by all human experience to
be the best possible standards of value, and that paper money
is simply a promise to pay such coined money, and should be
made and kept equal to coined money, by being convertible on
demand." - Secretary of Treasury John Sherman, 1877
"I am firmly of the opinion that there never was a
paper pound, a paper dollar, or a paper promise of any kind,
that ever yet obtained a general currency (as money) but by
force or fraud, generally by both." - John Adams
"If ever again our nation stumbles upon unfunded
paper, it shall surely be like death to our body politic. This
country will crash." - George Washington
"If the
American people ever allow private banks to control the issue
of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation,
(i.e., the "business cycle") the banks and corporations that
will grow up around them will deprive the people of all
property until their children wake-up homeless on the
continent their fathers conquered." - Thomas Jefferson
"Examining the organization and function of the
Federal Reserve Banks and applying the relevant factors, we
conclude that the Federal Reserve Banks are not Federal
instrumentalities...but are independent and privately owned
and controlled corporations...Federal Reserve Banks are listed
neither as 'wholly owned' government corporations [under 31
U.S.C. Section 846] nor as 'mixed ownership' corporations
[under 31 U.S.C. Section 856]...It is evident from the
legislative history of the Federal Reserve Act that Congress
did not intend to give the Federal government direction over
the daily operation of the Reserve Banks...The fact that the
Federal Reserve Board regulates the Reserve Banks does not
make them Federal agencies under the Act...Unlike typical
Federal agencies, each bank is empowered to hire and fire
employees at will. Bank employees do not participate in the
Civil Service Retirement System. They are covered by worker's
compensation insurance, purchased by the Bank, rather than the
Federal Employees Compensation Act. Employees traveling on
Bank business are not subject to Federal travel regulations
and do not receive government employee discounts on lodging
and services..." - Lewis vs. U.S., case #80-5905, 9th
Circuit, June 24, 1982
"The financial system has been
turned over to the Federal Reserve Board. That Board
administers the finance system by authority of a purely
profiteering group. The system is private, conducted for the
sole purpose of obtaining the greatest possible profits from
the use of other people's money." - Congressman Charles A.
Lindbergh Sr., 1923
"Some people think that the
Federal Reserve Banks are United States Government
institutions. They are not Government institutions. They are
private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of these
United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign
customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and
rich and predatory money lenders." - Congressman Louis T.
McFadden, 1932
"The Federal Reserve Bank is nothing
but a banking fraud and an unlawful crime against
civilization. Why? Because they "create" the money made out of
nothing, and our Uncle Sap Government issues their "Federal
Reserve Notes" and stamps our Government approval with NO
obligation whatever from these Federal Reserve Banks,
Individual Banks or National Banks, etc." - H.L. Birum,
Sr., American Mercury Magazine, August 1957
"A
disordered currency is one of the greatest political evils. It
undermines the virtues necessary for the support of the social
system, and encourages propensities destructive to its
happiness. It wars against industry, frugality and economy,
and it fosters evil spirits of extravagance and speculation.
Of all the contrivances for cheating the laboring classes of
mankind, none has been more effectual than that which deludes
them with paper money." - Congressman Daniel Webster, 1846
"The Federal Reserve banks are one of the most corrupt
institutions the world has ever seen. There is not a man
within the sound of my voice who does not know that this
nation is run by the International Bankers." - Congressman
Louis T. McFadden, 1934
"Every effort has been made by
the Fed to conceal its powers - but the truth is - the Fed has
usurped the Government. It controls everything here and it
controls all of our foreign relations. It makes and breaks
governments at will." - Congressman Louis T. McFadden,
1934
"From now on, depressions will be scientifically
created." - Congressman Charles A. Lindbergh Sr., 1913
"The depression was the calculated 'shearing' of the
public by the World Money powers, triggered by the planned
sudden shortage of supply of call money in the New York money
market...The One World Government leaders and their ever close
bankers have now acquired full control of the money and credit
machinery of the U.S. via the creation of the privately owned
Federal Reserve Bank." - Curtis Dall, Franklin D.
Roosevelt's son-in-law, as quoted from his book, "My Exploited
Father-in-Law"
"The one who cannot see that on Earth a
big endeavor is taking place, an important plan, on which
realization we are allowed to collaborate as faithful
servants, certainly has to be blind." - Winston Churchill
"Truth is so precious that it must be accompanied by a
bodyguard of lies." - Winston Churchill
"In
politics nothing is accidental. If something happens, be
assured it was planned this way." - Franklin D. Roosevelt
"It is not a matter of what is true that counts, but a
matter of what is perceived to be true." - Henry Kissinger
"For some time I have been disturbed by the way the
CIA has been diverted from it's original assignment. It has
become an operational and at times a policy making arm of the
government." - President Harry Truman
"There
exists a shadowy Government with its own Air Force, its own
Navy, its own fundraising mechanism, and the ability to pursue
its own ideas of national interest, free from all checks and
balances, and free from the law itself." - Senator Daniel
K. Inouye
"The governments of the present day have to
deal not merely with other governments, with emperors, kings
and ministers, but also with the secret societies which have
everywhere their unscrupulous agents, and can at the last
moment upset all the governments' plans." - Benjamin
Disraeli, Prime Minister of Britain, 1876
"It is
useless to deny, because it is impossible to conceal, that a
great part of Europe - the whole of Italy and France and a
great portion of Germany, to say nothing of other countries -
is covered with a network of these secret societies, just as
the superficies of the earth is now being covered with
railroads." - Benjamin Disraeli, Prime Minister of
Britain, 1876
"Fifty men have run America, and that's
a high figure." - Joseph Kennedy, father of John F.
Kennedy, in the July 26, l936 issue of The New York Times
"Today the path of total dictatorship in the United
States can be laid by strictly legal means, unseen and unheard
by the Congress, the President, or the people. Outwardly we
have a Constitutional government. We have operating within our
government and political system, another body representing
another form of government - a bureaucratic elite." -
Senator William Jenner, 1954
"The powers of financial
capitalism had another far reaching aim, nothing less than to
create a world system of financial control in private hands
able to dominate the political system of each country and the
economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be
controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the
world acting in concert, by secret agreements, arrived at in
frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the
system was the Bank for International Settlements in Basel,
Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the
world's central banks which were themselves private
corporations. The growth of financial capitalism made possible
a centralization of world economic control and use of this
power for the direct benefit of financiers and the indirect
injury of all other economic groups." - Carroll Quigley,
Professor of History at Georgetown University in his book
"Tragedy and Hope: A History of The World in Our Time"
(Macmillan Company, 1966), highly esteemed by his former
student, William Jefferson Blythe Clinton
"In a small
Swiss city [Basel] sits an international organization so
obscure and secretive [that few people know about
it]...Control of the institution, the Bank for International
Settlements, lies with some of the world's most powerful and
least visible men; the heads of 32 central banks, officials
able to shift billions of dollars and alter the course of
economies at the stroke of a pen." - Keith Bradsher of the
New York Times, August 5, 1995
"The Federal Reserve
Bank of New York is eager to enter into close relationship
with the Bank for International Settlements...The conclusion
is impossible to escape that the State and Treasury
Departments are willing to pool the banking systems of Europe
and America, setting up a world financial power independent of
and above the Government of the United States." -
Congressman Louis T. McFadden, Chairman of the House Committee
on Banking and Currency, quoted from the New York Times, June
1930
"Ever since the Civil War, Congress has allowed
the bankers to control financial legislation. The membership
of the Finance Committee in the Senate [now the Banking and
Currency Committee] and the Committee on Banking and Currency
in the House have been made up chiefly of bankers, their
agents, and their attorneys...In this way the committees have
been able to control legislation in the interests of the few."
- Congressman Charles A. Lindberg, Sr.
"The
Council on Foreign Relations is "The Establishment". Not only
does it have influence and power in key decision-making
positions at the highest levels of government to apply
pressure from above, but it also announces and uses
individuals and groups to bring pressure from below, to
justify the high level decisions for converting the U.S. from
a sovereign Constitutional Republic into a servile member
state of a one-world dictatorship." - Former Congressman
John Rarick, 1971
"The Council on Foreign Relations
(CFR) is the American Branch of a society which originated in
England [The Royal Institute of International Affairs]...and
believes national boundaries should be obliterated and
one-world rule established." - Carroll Quigley, Professor
of History at Georgetown University
"The Trilateral
Commission is intended to be the vehicle for multinational
consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by
seizing control of the political government of the United
States. The Trilateral Commission represents a skillful,
coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four
centers of power - political, monetary, intellectual, and
ecclesiastical. All this is to be done in the interest of
creating a more peaceful, more productive world community.
What the Trilateralists truly intend is the creation of a
worldwide economic power superior to the political governments
of the nation-states involved. They believe the abundant
materialism they propose to create will overwhelm existing
differences. As managers and creators of the system they will
rule the future." - Senator Barry Goldwater, Republican
candidate for President, 1964
"The drive of the
Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world
government combining supercapitalism and communism under the
same tent, all under their control...Do I mean conspiracy? Yes
I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in
scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in
intent." - Congressman Larry P. McDonald, 1976, killed in
the Korean Airlines 747 (flight KAL007) that was shot down by
the Soviets
"In March, 1915, the J.P. Morgan
interests, the steel, shipbuilding, and powder interest, and
their subsidiary organizations, got together 12 men high up in
the newspaper world and employed them to select the most
influential newspapers in the United States and sufficient
number of them to control generally the policy of the daily
press...They found it was only necessary to purchase the
control of 25 of the greatest papers. An agreement was
reached; the policy of the papers was bought, to be paid for
by the month; an editor was furnished for each paper to
properly supervise and edit information regarding the
questions of preparedness, militarism, financial policies, and
other things of national and international nature considered
vital to the interests of the purchasers." - Congressman
Oscar Callaway, 1917
"There is no such thing, at this
date of the world's history, in America, as an independent
press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who
dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know
beforehand that it will never appear in print. I am paid
weekly for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am
connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for
similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to
write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for
another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one
issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation
would be gone. The business of the journalist is to destroy
the truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at
the feet of Mammon, and to sell his country and his race for
his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is
this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and
vassels for rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping
jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our
possibilities and our lives are the property of other men. We
are intellectual prostitutes." - John Swinton, Former
Chief of Staff of the New York Times, called by his peers "The
Dean of his profession", was asked in 1953 to give a toast
before the New York Press Club
"By a continuing
process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and
unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens.
There is no subtler, more sure way of overturning the existing
basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process
engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of
destruction, and does it in a manner in which not one man in a
million is able to diagnose." - John Maynard Keynes
"The study of money, above all other fields in
economics, is one in which complexity is used to disguise
truth or to evade truth, not to reveal it." - John Kenneth
Galbraith, in his book "Money: Whence It Came, Where It Went",
1975
"A nation of well informed men who have been
taught to know and prize the rights which God has given them
cannot be enslaved. It is in the region of ignorance that
tyranny begins." - Benjamin Franklin
"In the
colonies, we issue our own paper money. It is called 'Colonial
Script'. We issue it in proper proportion to make the goods
pass easily from the producers to the consumers. In this
manner, creating ourselves our own paper money, we control
it's purchasing power and we have no interest to pay to
anyone." - Benjamin Franklin, speaking at the London
Parliament
"If that mischievous financial policy which
had its origin in the North American Republic [i.e., honest
Constitutionally authorized debt-free money] should become
indurated down to a fixture, then that government will furnish
its own money without cost. It will pay off its debts and be
without a debt (to the International Bankers). It will have
all the money necessary to carry on its commerce. It will
become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of the
civilized governments of the world. The brains and wealth of
all countries will go to North America. That government must
be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe!"
- The Times of London newspaper, opinion-editorial
commentary
"The colonies would gladly have borne the
little tax on tea and other matters, had it not been that
England took away from the colonies their money, which created
great unemployment and dissatisfaction. Within a year, the
poor houses were filled. The hungry and homeless walked the
streets everywhere. The inability of the colonists to get
power to issue their own money permanently out of the hands of
George III and the International Bankers was probably the
Prime reason for the Revolutionary War." - Benjamin
Franklin, as quoted from his autobiography
"I know of
no safe depository of the ultimate powers of society but the
people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough
to exercise control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is
not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion."
- Thomas Jefferson
"The high office of President
has been used to foment a plot to destroy the American's
freedom, and before I leave office I must inform the citizen
of his plight." - John F. Kennedy, speaking at Columbia
University, 10 days before his assassination
"The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world government combining super-capitalism and Communism under the same tent, all under their control...Do I mean conspiracy? Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent."
- Congressman Larry McDonald, 1976 (killed in plane crash)
"Mr.
Greenspan needs to make his decision independent of what I
think. I learned a pretty good lesson during the transition,
and that is I commented out loud about one of the actions he
took. That's the last time I'm going to comment about the
actions Mr. Greenspan takes. He's an independent voice, and
needs to be an independent voice." - [Notional] President
George W. Bush, speaking in regards to the Federal Reserve
Board Chairman, 2001
"Those who swallow down usury
cannot arise except as one whom Satan has prostrated by his
touch does rise. That is because they say, trading is only
like usury; and Allah has allowed trading and forbidden usury.
To whomsoever then the admonition has come from his Lord, then
he desists, he shall have what is already passed, and his
affairs is in the hands of Allah; and whoever returns to it -
these are the inmates of the fire; they shall abide in it..."
- From the Qur'an, Surah Al-Baqarah
"If thou lend
money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not
be to him an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury. -
Exodus 22:25. Take no usury of him, or increase...thou shalt
not give him thy money upon usury. - Leviticus 25:36-37. Unto
thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury: That the Lord thy
God bless thee. - Deuteronomy 23:20" - The Bible
"It comes as news to most people to learn that
practically all important ethical teachers - Moses, Aristotle,
Jesus, Mohammed, and Saint Thomas Aquinas, for instance - have
denounced lending at interest as usury and as morally wrong."
- Lawrence Dennis, Saturday Review of Literature 661, June
24, 1933
"The most sinister and anti-social feature
about bank-deposit money is that it has no existence. The
banks owe the public for a total amount of money which does
not exist. In buying and selling, implemented by cheque
transactions, there is a mere change in the party to whom the
money is owed by the banks. As the one depositor's account is
debited, the other is credited and the banks can go on owing
for it all the time. The whole profit of the issuance of money
has provided the capital of the great banking business as it
exists today. Starting with nothing whatever of their own,
they have got the whole world into their debt irredeemably, by
a trick. This money comes into existence every time the banks
'lend' and disappears every time the debt is repaid to them.
So that if industry tries to repay, the money of the nation
disappears. This is what makes prosperity so 'dangerous' as it
destroys money just when it is most needed and precipitates a
slump. There is nothing left now for us but to get ever deeper
and deeper into debt to the banking system in order to provide
the increasing amounts of money the nation requires for its
expansion and growth. An honest money system is the only
alternative." - Frederick Soddy, Nobel Prize Winner, 1921
"Economic warfare spans political warfare and military
warfare and supersedes both, which are merely tools in the
hands of those who are the masters of economic systems. The
public is systematically misled, almost hypnotically, to
believe that no such hidden masters of economic systems
actually exist, or could even possibly exist, and that all of
the economic strife in the world today is strictly the result
of unplanned human incompetence when, in fact, very deliberate
economic warfare is being carried out. Populations struggle to
find purely political or military solutions to their economic
problems, or they are manipulated and duped into giving yet
more economic control over to their masters, in the name of
general prosperity, because they do not fully understand the
real principles of economics and banking. The myth of their
non-existence is what protects the hierarchies of the
international money cults of the world and allows them to
continue their constant rivalries against one another, and to
maintain their existence at the dire cost of their subject
populations." - [Anonymous]
"I spent 33 years in
the Marines. Most of my time being a high-class muscle man for
big business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was
a racketeer for capitalism. I helped purify Nicaragua for the
international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I
helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American
oil interests in 1914. I brought light to the Dominican
Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make
Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys
to collect revenue in. I helped in the rape of half-a-dozen
Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street..."
- Major General Smedley D. Butler, U.S. Marine Corps
"We have about 50% of the world's wealth, but only
6.3% of its population...Our real task in the coming period is
to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to
maintain this position of disparity...To do so, we will have
to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our
attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our
immediate national objectives...We should cease to talk about
vague and...unreal objectives such as human rights, the
raising of living standards, and democratization. The day is
not far off when we are going to have to deal in straight
power concepts. The less we are then hampered by idealistic
slogans, the better." - George Kennan, Director of State
Department Policy Planning staff, Truman Administration, 1948
"Fascism should rightly be called corporatism as it is
a merge of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini
"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people
tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it
becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its
essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual,
by a group or any controlling private power." - Franklin
D. Roosevelt
"A popular government, without popular
information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue
to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will
forever govern ignorance. And a people who mean to be their
own Governors, must arm themselves with the power that
knowledge gives." - James Madison
"Information is
the currency of democracy." - Thomas Jefferson
"I
may be alone with my thoughts, on my island located on my
inland sea. Previously, I would be helpless to influence my
national government. With the internet, although physically
isolated, I can associate with millions across my country and
across the globe. No longer am I one person, and no government
can afford to ignore me. I have become a power block, in both
theory and in fact. Even if I ignore today the ability I now
have to associate with others, no government can afford to
ignore the possibility that someday I may, for some reason,
choose to exercise this ability to associate. The individual,
isolated or not, has become important." - Andrew Grosso,
Attorney, Chairman of the ACM Committee on Law and Computer
Technology
"This country, with its institutions,
belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow
weary of the existing government, they can exercise their
constitutional right of amending it, or their revolutionary
right to dismember or overthrow it." - Abraham Lincoln,
First Inaugural
"When in the course of human events,
it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political
bonds which have connected them with another, and...whenever
any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends [of
Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness], it is the Right
of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new
Government, laying its foundation on such principles and
organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most
likely to effect [provide] their Safety and Happiness..."
- Declaration of Independence of the American Colonies,
1776
"A Government that makes peaceful revolution
impossible, makes armed revolution inevitable." - John F.
Kennedy
"If you're not ready to die for it, put the
word "freedom" out of your vocabulary." - Malcolm X
"When the government fears the people, you have
liberty; when the people fear the government, you have
tyranny." - Thomas Jefferson
"...news
organizations, and all Americans, in times like these have to
watch what they say and watch what they do." - Ari
Fleischer, White House Press Secretary, September 26, 2001
"It is not the function of the government to keep the
citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the
citizen to keep the government from falling into error." -
Justice Robert H. Jackson, U.S. Supreme Court Justice
"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a
little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety
[and they will very quickly lose both]." - Benjamin
Franklin
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is
a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause
succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs
nothing to be a patriot." - Mark Twain
"It is the
duty of the patriot to protect his country from its
government." - Thomas Paine
"Let us disappoint the
men who would raise themselves upon the ruin of our country."
- John Adams
"The perverse deceptiveness
characteristic of the individuals who control the Federal
Reserve Bank is readily apparent to those who know the
necessary historical truths. The fact that they adorn their
notes with symbols of the Freemasons and pictures of our
national heroes (to help carry on the charade that the Fed is
a government institution), who were actually diametrically
[totally] opposed to the Fed's existence and its type of
'money', is a mockery that is downright diabolical, and must
be the insider's 'joke' of all time. Unfortunately, the
consequences of this colossal con to the American people, and
the entire world, are all too deadly serious. The Federal
Reserve Bank is not federal, is not a reserve, and is not even
a real bank." - [Anonymous]
"The eyes of our
citizens are not sufficiently open to the true cause of our
distress. They ascribe them to everything but their true
cause, the banking system; a system which if it could do good
in any form is yet so certain of leading to abuse as to be
utterly incompatible with the public safety and prosperity.
The Central Bank is an institution of the most deadly
hostility existing against the principles and form of our
Constitution." - Thomas Jefferson
"Once a nation
parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters
not who makes the nations laws. Usury, once in control, will
wreck any nation. Until the control of the issue of currency
and credit is restored to government and recognized as its
most sacred responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of
parliament and of democracy is idle and futile." - William
Lyon Mackenzie King, Prime Minister of Canada, 1935
"The issue which has swept down the centuries and
which will have to be fought sooner or later is The People vs.
The Banks." - Lord Acton, Lord Chief Justice of England,
1875
"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group
of men living together in society, they create for themselves
in the course of time, a legal system that authorizes it and a
moral code that glorifies it." - Frederic Bastiat, in his
book "Economic Sophisms"
"A lie repeated a thousand
times becomes the truth." - [Unknown]
"The perfect
slave is the slave who thinks that he is free." -
[Unknown]
"The truth is always revolutionary." -
Antonio Gramsci
