Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq - Oh My

It just keeps getting better -

"I don't oppose all wars. ... What I am opposed to is a dumb war. What I am opposed to is a rash war. What I am opposed to is the cynical attempt by Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz and other armchair, weekend warriors in this administration to shove their own ideological agendas down our throats, irrespective of the costs in lives lost and in hardships borne."

“But I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military is a fraction of its former strength, and that in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history,” said Sen. Obama.

At least Obama is consistent. But before we delve too far into ideological reasons, let's examine the so-called "rebels" starting with their leader -

The commander of anti Gaddafi rebels forces in Libya has admitted that among the ranks of those fighting against the government are islamic militants who have fought and killed US troops in Iraq, otherwise known as “al qaeda” fighters.

Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi, who made the remarks in an interview with Il Sole 24 Ore, an Italian newspaper, admitted that he had previously recruited fundamentalists to fight in Iraq, and said that the fighters are “today are on the front lines in Adjabiya”. 

al-Hasidi himself was captured in Pakistan in 2002 and handed over to US forces after fighting against US troops in Afghanistan. He was held in Libya and eventually released in 2008.

 Have you ever wondered why these little wars keep happening? Just why there's so much oppression in foreign lands? Well, this is nothing new in the world and it is routinely designed to operate this way courtesy of our own Central Intelligence Agency -

In his memoir, current Defense Secretary Robert Gates admits that American intelligence services began to aid the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan 6 months before the Soviet intervention. Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter’s national security advisor at the time, told the French newspaper Le Nouvel Observateur in 1998 that it was all true – that creating the Mujahadeen that would later morph into al-Qaeda and the Taliban was an “excellent idea” and he had no regrets, never mind the 400,000 who died as a result.

In addition to attacking Russia in Afghanistan – an effort that would ultimately result in the downfall of the Soviet empire – and plunging that nation into a horrific civil war, the intelligence effort established al-Qaeda as a foreign policy instrument used by the globalists to take down nations and regimes (specifically in Bosnia and Kosovo) and also was used to demonize resistance to forays by the globalists.

and more recently -

Mr. al-Hasidi is reportedly a member of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG), also known as Al-Jama’a al-Islamiyyah al-Muqatilah bi-Libya. It is the most powerful radical faction waging Jihad in Libya and was officially designated as an affiliate of al-Qaeda and the Taliban – both CIA creations – by the UN 1267 Committee. LIFG was founded in the fall of 1995 by Libyans who had fought against Soviet forces in Afghanistan, in short for the CIA and the ISI.

In 2007, documents captured by allied forces from the town of Sinjar, showed LIFG members made up the second-largest cohort of foreign fighters in Iraq, after Saudi Arabia.

Not surprisingly, another intelligence asset, al-Muhajiroun, is active in Libya. Al-Muhajiroun was involved in recruiting British Muslims to fight in Kosovo. The now banned organization, based out of a London mosque, is known to have harbored a number of British intelligence plants, including Haroon Rashid Aswat, supposedly the mastermind of the London 7/7 bombings. In 1997, the group’s leader, Abu Hamza al-Masri, started working with two branches of the British security services, the police’s Special Branch and MI5, the domestic counterintelligence service.

This same Zbigniew Brzezinski would go on to write the tell-tale look into Ordo ab Chao geo-strategic warfare in, The Grand Chessboard. Explained briefly, this doctrine of warfare seeks to create the chaos necessary to destabilize the world so that it can be controlled directly. This is exactly why we continue to see this revolving door of intervention, wars and subsequent bankruptcy that robs the populace of their capital.

Let's get back to ideology for a moment. This is an illegal war. There has been no declaration of war by the Congress, not even a censorship resolution on Qaddafi. To quote Congressman Ron Paul -

Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution could not be clearer: the power and obligation to declare war resides solely in the US Congress.

Do you really support an action by any elected individual that flies in the face of his sworn oath? How can any individual that holds an elected office attempt to exercise his office when he flagrantly violates his constraints and most shockingly, arms those who reportedly carried out 9/11?

But let's stick our head in the sand further and ignore the illegality of it for a moment. Behind Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan this is the fourth country that the United States is currently committed to military operations in. This says nothing of our troop commitments to countries such as Georgia (9,000), South Korea (30,000), or Japan (50,000) Or heaven forbid we look into Romania, Bulgaria, Kyrgyzstan, Poland, Germany, Kosovo, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Somalia, Djibouti, Aruba, Egypt, Oman, Diego Garcia, Australia, or Singapore. Indeed, is there a country where we don't like to play soldier?

So just how much does this global action cost? As much as all of the world's military budgets combined. (Of course, you can add on Libya now too.) Where does that leave the United States fiscally? Technically, we're bust. Zip. Out of $ -

“If the United States actually defaults on our debt it would be catastrophic,” Dimon, 55, said at a U.S. Chamber of Commerce event in Washington today, when asked what may happen if the U.S. fails to increase its $14.29 trillion debt limit.

The government will reach its legal debt limit between April 15 and May 31 if Congress doesn’t act, the U.S. Treasury Department said March 1. The department, which may provide an updated timeline in early April, has said it could get an extra eight weeks before it exhausts emergency steps to avoid breaching the limit.(Uh, no. We hit it already.)

Of course, when confronted with such a thing, the Republicans will fold and the spending will continue. But with quantitative easing absolutely destroying purchasing power here and abroad, the Fed is confronted with a snafu. Either default and lock itself out of foreign markets or continue inflating and stoke the fires of rebellion abroad. (Take a guess at what they have chosen so far.)

Not surprisingly, local governments are just as bad -

In a speech before the United States Chamber of Commerce, JPMorgan Chase Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon told the audience:

I wouldn’t panic about what I’m about to say. You’re going to see some municipalities not make it. I don’t think it’s going to shatter America, I just think it’s a part of the credit cycle.

He went on to say that some municipalities will need to renegotiate their debt and it will be hundreds of them that may “not make it.”

More immediately, foreclosures are leaving housing empty, food stamp usage is abysmally high, and unemployment stands at 15.9% (U6. It is over 22% if you take out all the shenanigans).

Let's look at just what we're bringing the good people of Libya. All this so-called freedom and stuff. Of course, this is from the same group that gave you depleted uranium in Iraq, look at the pictures (Warning: Graphic) if you have the balls to stomach what your tax dollars are really doing to the world.


And in what is the final oppinion on all of this, the NATO commander gives his take on the likely outcome  -

Speaking some 10 days in to the war on Libya, NATO chief Anders Fogh Rasmussen today said “clearly there’s no military solution” to the conflict, echoing the slogan NATO officials have constantly trotted out to explain the continuation of the Afghan War.

There you have it, billions spent. Thousands dead. And NO solution. This has nothing at all to do with "humanitarianism" or "justice". This has everything to do with removing an individual in a sovereign nation that isn't towing the globalist line and out of the ashes creating a new ethnic war. Of course, astute readers of mine knew that back on March 1st.

David Icke On Deadline Live - Fork in The Road (They Want To Trigger World War III)

Zoning, Just Where Will the Bureaucrats Stop?

Sometimes by examining the supposedly absurd, we arrive at the truth -

Rules regarding swing sets and play sets in Westport will go under the microscope Thursday night at the Planning and Zoning Commission public hearing. A proposal was filed to make them exempt from current setback and coverage requirements.

The text amendment, made by resident Cary Moskowitz, seeks to change the definition of a structure to exclude swing sets and play sets, thus, making them an exception to setback and coverage regulations. Currently, swing sets and play sets must by placed at least 50 feet from property lines.

In the application, Moskowitz said that eliminating play sets and swings sets from the definition of structure would "legalize literally hundreds of swing sets and play sets that are illegal by virtue of their encroachment upon side yard and/or front and rear yard setbacks."

The Real Effect
Still think you own that property that you worked your entire life to pay for? No way, this is a rigged game my friend and you sir are the chump. Incrementally, day after day, rule upon rule they chip away at the rotted corpse of property ownership until one day, you are thankful that you get to use the property that you paid for. But that's right, in America, we always think of the collective good. Isn't there a name for that? Ah, I digress.

So, the question becomes - Just how has this collective ownership worked for our country? The Federal Reserve says much like it did for the Soviet Union -

The United States is on a fiscal path towards insolvency and policymakers are at a "tipping point," a Federal Reserve official said on Tuesday.

"If we continue down on the path on which the fiscal authorities put us, we will become insolvent, the question is when," Dallas Federal Reserve Bank President Richard Fisher said in a question and answer session after delivering a speech at the University of Frankfurt. "The short-term negotiations are very important, I look at this as a tipping point."

But I'm sure this all just temporary and that the bankstas are setting up a parallel system for grins and giggles right? RIGHT? Who's with me?!?

Libya, The Three Stooges Take Center Stage

This invasion is a joke. Everyone is looking dumb -

Deep divisions between allied forces currently bombing Libya worsened today as the German military announced it was pulling forces out of NATO over continued disagreement on who will lead the campaign.

A German military spokesman said it was recalling two frigates and AWACS surveillance plane crews from the Mediterranean, after fears they would be drawn into the conflict if NATO takes over control from the U.S.

The infighting comes as a heated meeting of NATO ambassadors yesterday failed to resolve whether the 28-nation alliance should run the operation to enforce a U.N.-mandated no-fly zone, diplomats said.

Yesterday a war of words erupted between the U.S. and Britain after the U.K. government claimed Muammar Gaddafi is a legitimate target for assassination.

U.K. government officials said killing the Libyan leader would be legal if it prevented civilian deaths as laid out in a U.N. resolution.

The Real Effect
Is there a single organization that is gaining any sort of credibility left whatsoever in this?

The UN, is now giving marching orders to heads of state, in order to wage a large-scale non-war (at least so say the French) to stop the killing of "rebels" in direct opposition to its charter which results in an effective attack errr, "No-fly" zone that it cannot coordinate. (Complete with bombs!). Russia and China refuse to vote in the world poll booth, then come out and call the attack brutal (Which it is) after not participating.

This is occurring under the pretext that we are there to "save people", wait, take precedent in killing, wait, "regime change" while United States personnel are on trial for murdering individuals in another ongoing war?!? (Oh, Muslims have "rights" in America, just not in their country.) 

The Obama administration, in kind, is so intent to wage an illegal war that it does so without so much as a resolution from Congress condemning the targeted regime. Did I mention that they're consistent too? (Biden, pffft, like he needs any help looking non-credible.)

"If he takes this nation to war in Iran without congressional approval, I will make it my business to impeach him. And that's a fact."

Switch now to the principled Republicans which are so on board with bringing depleted uranium to Libya and national spending cuts that they are paying for them by bombing Libya! Let's not mention they seem to have a penchant for unconstitutional "justice bringing campaigns" as well, even if they turn into indefinite occupations, or not -

President Barack Obama Wednesday categorically ruled out a land invasion to oust Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi as coalition forces launched a fifth day of air strikes against government military targets in the North African nation.

If this is the case, then please kindly explain why the Kearsage and Bataan are in the theater or why the National Guard is being mobilized?

Finally about those "rebels" that we are saving -

A senior member of al Qaida urged Libyan rebels to continue their fight against Muammar Gaddafi and warned of the consequences of defeat, in a videotaped message posted on Jihadi websites, the Qatar-based Gulf News reported on Sunday.

Ah yes, the very individuals to whom we must sacrifice all of our liberties here at home because they want to keel us all! are reportedly on the side of "liberty" in Libya. Wha-wha-wha!?! Wait, do we like al Qaida or hate them? You say Osama, I say Obama. It's all soooo confusing.

Shortly, Obama will have two choices - Run away and show the world that we lose or become an even larger liar.

After all, war is peace.

4,000 Ton China Missile Frigate Off Libya Coast

Oooo, things just got interesting.

Kucinich: Libya war unconstitutional

Fox News, Caught Lying Again

Wow, now they're schilling for Obama's war and busted in the act, again -

...Fox News completely manufactured a claim about Gaddafi using journalists as human shields to prevent his compound from being bombed and ran it as an exclusive story yesterday.

In a piece entitled, EXCLUSIVE: Libyans Use Journalists as Human Shields, Fox News’ Jennifer Griffin & Justin Fishel wrote, “An attack on the compound of Libyan leader Muammar al-Qaddafi on Sunday had to be curtailed because of journalists nearby, Fox News has learned.”
“British sources confirmed that seven Storm Shadow missiles were ready to be fired from a British aircraft, but the strikes had to be curtailed due to crews from CNN, Reuters and other organizations nearby. Officials from Libya’s Ministry of Information brought those journalists to the area to show them damage from the initial attack and to effectively use them as human shields.”

But there’s a problem, one of the CNN journalists supposedly used by Gaddafi as a human shield subsequently appeared on CNN and labeled the claim, “Outrageous and absolutely hypocritical.”
“The idea that we were some kind of human shields is nuts,” CNN international correspondent Nic Robertson told Wolf Blitzer, adding that the 40 journalists on the tour of Libyan government buildings were free to get on and off the bus whenever they wanted.

The Real Effect
No matter how much I say this, this point cannot be made too much - The buck does not stop at Obama or Murdoch or George Soros for that matter. It goes higher then that. The elite are like a rogue nation without borders worshiping themselves and their money. Their penance? To sacrifice as many of us as they can.

On the note of Libya, I expect some sort of retaliation in the name of rogue agents supporting Gadaffi. Since France "struck first", perhaps a high profile target in France is targeted in a high-profile nuclear or biological attack?

Chess Piece Libya - I'll Take That Rook

A vote is not enough, bombs and missiles must answer the "Christian" clarion call of freedom in Libya -

Today, on March 19, 2011, the U.S., U.K. and France at long last intervened in Libya as Qaddafi’s forces began the final assault to finish off the rebels. After thousands of deaths and incalculable destruction, Operation Odyssey Dawn began with air and missile strikes on Qaddafi’s tanks and air defenses in an attempt to perform an 11th hour rescue.

France fired the first shots by destroying four of Qaddafi’s tanks near Benghazi, the capital of the opposition. Over 100 Tomahawk missiles were then fired from U.S. and British warships and submarines to destroy about 20 air defense sites. The immediate objective is to prevent Qaddafi’s forces from putting a quick end to the conflict by overrunning Benghazi and pave the way for the establishment of a no fly zone. Various European countries will soon be involved and Arab countries like the United Arab Emirates and Qatar are expected to contribute and Egypt is arming the rebels.

To make matters all the more interesting, today some pictures that make the United States look like a brutal butcher and occupier are released -

Commanders in Afghanistan are bracing themselves for possible riots and public fury triggered by the publication of "trophy" photographs of US soldiers posing with the dead bodies of defenceless Afghan civilians they killed. 

Senior officials at Nato's International Security Assistance Force in Kabul have compared the pictures published by the German news weekly Der Spiegel to the images of US soldiers abusing prisoners in Abu Ghraib in Iraq which sparked waves of anti-US protests around the world. 

They fear that the pictures could be even more damaging as they show the aftermath of the deliberate murders of Afghan civilians by a rogue US Stryker tank unit that operated in the southern province of Kandahar last year.

The Real Effect
I guess this is becoming a sport for the presidents now. The ground invasion will commence as soon as the air war fails to secure the ever evasive non-goal of oil sccurity, regime change, no flying or killing rebels. Of course, as previously stated, the Neocons are salivating over yet another pointless war that gives us the wonderful opportunity to have a dramatic Al-Quaeda face turn in true WWE style. It appears that bombing sovereign nations and aiding terrorist organizations in opposition to the Constitution is a Conservative Principle upon which this country stands.

Of course the timing of this has nothing to do with the so called Supermoon that was present that day. Nor does the fact that it's called Operation Odyssey Dawn mean a whole lot to the astronomically inclined among us. (Nor the new "suns" created in the Fukushima incident.)Think of this a sort of magical invocation, conjuring the spirits of war and death.

The fires of Arabic fury are being stoked in Yemen, Bahrain, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and Iran. The pump is being primed, but the Muslims are not aimed yet. Yet, all bodes ill for the United States because even now, there are rumors of her demise.

Rome wasn't built in a day and it certainly didn't collapse in one either.

Libya, Cue Next Phase of Global Thermo-Nuclear War

Well, they got their no-fly zone -

Those who were asking what the “international community” planned to do in response to the escalating global crisis surrounding the nuclear plant in Fukushima now have their answer – bomb Libya. As if the world wasn’t experiencing enough turmoil and devastation, another illegal war of aggression has been launched in a volatile region, couched in the retching Orwellian doublespeak of ‘no fly zones’ and ‘humanitarian’ rhetoric.

The rebels’ failure to blaze a trail for the permanent installation of US military bases and control over 46 billion barrels plus of oil reserves has mandated the imposition of a “no fly zone,” which of course means that no one will be able to fly over Libya, except obviously British, French and American warplanes that will be dropping bombs on brown kids like there’s no tomorrow. “No fly zone”? Orwell rolls in his grave.

Note the inherent hypocrisy with the following frequently occurring isolated incident -

A US drone attack with an unusually high death toll of 40 on Thursday drew a rare condemnation both from civilian and military leadership.

In the attack which came a day after CIA operative Raymond Davis had been set free by a court in Lahore, US drones fired missiles when a jirga was in progress in Nevi Adda Shega area of North Waziristan, killing 40 people, including tribal elders.

Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani strongly condemned the incident and called the attack an “irrational act”.

The Real Effect
Sometimes it is far too easy to predict these things -

Training bases? Oh yeah, that won't devolve into a "peacekeeping" mission complete with lucrative oil contracts to uh, compensate us for our generosity.

Of course a no fly-zone is being implemented now that the "Rebels" are losing.

As I stated on the 1st, look out for false flag scenarios to be carried out in "retaliation" to the American interventions.

Ron Paul: We Will Vote Tomorrow To Order ALL Troops Out Of Afghanistan By The End Of This Year!

Madison Comes to Washington

Who thought all of this was going to end in Wisconsin? Anyone...anyone...?

The House of Representatives on Tuesday voted 271-158 in favor of a stopgap spending bill that will finance the federal government for three more weeks.

The Republican-crafted bill, which cuts some $6 billion in government funds, will give Democratic and Republican lawmakers until April 8 to work out a deal on funding the government for the rest of its fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30.

On the final vote in the Republican-dominated House, 186 Republicans and 85 Democrats endorsed the bill, while 54 Republicans and 104 Democrats opposed it. The bill headed to the Democratic-led Senate, where it is expected to pass.

"This is a package that's made up of Democratic cuts," Jon Summers, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told USA Today. "We're glad that Republicans worked with us, despite the objections of the Tea Partiers on the right."

The Real Effect
Here here! Down with those contemptible Tea Partiers, what with their balanced budgets and consistent foreign policy and all. What do they think we're Austria?!? As if!

All that the D.C. ilk is accomplishing is kick-the-can for another month. And in this game, when you kick it, it gets bigger and bigger. Note that the Republicans are acting all big about cutting like .0001% of spending?

You see, there's a FAR bigger problem then the spending and that is the Federal Debt. You see, that money is owed to the bankers and bankers like their monies. Take note of the following article to show you just how quickly this situation is going from manageable to "OH NO!" -

Just an Olympiad ago, in 2007, the picture was quite different. In fact, in that year, federal revenues not only exceeded mandatory spending, but they exceeded it by more than $1 trillion ($1.117 trillion, to be more exact). The next year, 2008, during which the gap fell to a still-huge $914 billion, the Bush administration released a report issuing a rather dire warning (p. 25). The report said that, “if left unchanged, mandatory spending alone is projected to exceed total projected Government receipts in approximately 50 years.” That dire prediction has now come true — about 50 years earlier than projected.

The left will sell you to the communists, the right will sell you to the corporations and just who is paying the bills? The bankers. So when this thing blows, look for the party that holds the debt to look to take possession of the collateral. Namely you.

I want everyone here to learn a new word, it is "receivership". And it's coming sooner than you would think.

Sauds Declare War On Bahrain

In a piece of radioactive earthquake buried news, the CIA Saudis decide to invade Iran Bahrain and the Empire Formerly Known as Persia is none-to-pleased.

Iran called the deployment of foreign troops in Bahrain unacceptable on Tuesday and warned Saudi Arabia and its ally Washington of "dangerous consequences" for intervening in the island nation's political crisis.

About 1,000 Saudi soldiers entered Bahrain on Monday as part of an effort by the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) to help the government cope with protests by members of the Shi'ite majority.

The move has alarmed Iran, the main Shi'ite power in the Gulf where most ruling families are Sunni Arabs. Analysts say Saudi Arabia's action might increase tensions with Iran -- both major oil exporters -- to dangerous levels.

"The presence of foreign forces and interference in Bahrain's internal affairs is unacceptable and will further complicate the issue," Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said at his weekly news conference.

Tehran said Washington was responsible for pushing its ally and oil supplier Saudi Arabia into getting involved in Bahrain, a small but important U.S. ally which is home to the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet.

The Real Effect
Washington is working overtime to get their war with Iran. In some ways, I'm surprised that Iran hasn't taken the bait yet, but they seem to be far more staid then the United States. Note that despite Obama's empty no-war campaign vitriol, Iran still remains in the cross-hairs. Further, note that there is little foreign policy differences overall?

The chess pieces continue to move around the board as the world awaits the Golden Dawn that heralds the Rising Phoenix.

Michigan - Beware the Power Grab

This is the kind of thing you would expect to see in 1984 -

Michigan lawmakers are on the verge of approving a bill that would enable the governor to appoint "emergency managers" -- officials with unilateral power to make sweeping changes to cities facing financial troubles.

Under the legislation, the Michigan Messenger reports, the governor could declare a "financial emergency" in towns or school districts. He could then appoint a manager to fire local elected officials, break contracts, seize and sell assets, eliminate services - and even eliminate whole cities or school districts without any public input.

The measure passed in the state Senate this week; the House passed its own version earlier. The two versions of the bill are expected to be reconciled next week, and Republican Gov. Rick Snyder has said he will sign the bill the bill into law.

The Real Effect
I have, to a degree stayed out of the political discussion surrounding Wisconsin at present time because I wanted to see exactly where both sides were coming from. It is akin to watching the Nazis and the Communists argue, either way you are not going to be more free when it's all over.  My fears were that the sort of thing mentioned above would happen in due time. Tyrants love a good emergency and this bill would create a contingent of unelected tyrants.

Unilateral appointments that override the vote of the people in a given area flies directly in the face of a supposed representative government. It is my sincere wish that the people of Michigan don't buy into the paradigm of either managed faux-democracy or brutal fascistic leadership. Either way, the result is the same - A loss of liberty and prosperity.

Saudi Arabia, Check - A Review of the Chess Pieces Moving Into Place - Part 2

In yesterday's piece, we examined the globalist movement on the world chessboard as
they attempt to stoke protests around the globe, primarily in the Mideast. Today we continue that examination.


The Muslim world has been the recipients of MI6/CIA "stabilization" programs for decades with their kin bearing the brunt of the cost. (See Afghanistan/Pakistan for a current comparison) In short, the Muslims are being goaded into revolution. True there is a natural dispensation towards revolution presently, but the object of the reformation will be the revelator of the critical piece. Much like an abused woman who leaves a man merely to hook-up with another, more violent one.

This is manifesting into conflict and war. Some real, some manufactured. (Korea, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Georgia, Mexico) Most, if not all are a direct result of government policy. Most is designed to set the table with the pieces in place for a great conflict. Much like the Aztecs would sacrifice to appease and empower, so too must this magical regime offer the blood of the innocents in a great spell to usher in the new era. Of course, the existence of the bloodshed will be the very argument for the advancement of those who caused it. But that little fact will be seen as irrelevant.

The movement seems directed towards militarization with many "leaders" rising up to seemingly throw off the old CIA remnants. Yet who is to say that these new benefactors are any more benevolent and less compromised than their predecessors? Especially in regards to the Muslim Brotherhood and their new caliphate. To this extent, you can view the pieces of the Grand Chessboard sliding across the board. Let's review the current conflicts as presented in the Series - Religious War.

Strategically
Front 1 (Mideast) is active in myriads of countries as the protests spread from country to country. The basic thrust is against the rulers that oppress the people. But just what will happen when the people find who's been pulling the strings?

as the debt crisis has not only not subsided, but is intensifying with countries continuing to report record bond spreads, massive unemployment and civil unrest. Put simply, the Mideast has been more interesting news lately.

Front 2 (India/Pakistan)has been active for quite some time as these countries continued to be bombed by NATO and the US.

Front 3 (Far east) is relatively quiet. (The earthquake not-withstanding). However another aircraft carrier is joining the region for more drills aimed at North Korea.

Front 4 is active in Central America, however the recent protests in Madison seem to be a spark for the rest of the country.

Individual Points of Conflict
A review of the sides -

Side 1: Christian/Judaic -

• The United States
• Israel
• The Crown Countries (Canada, Australia, New Zealand)
• European Union (U.K., Germany, France, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Sweden)
• Others - Georgia, Columbia 

Side 2: Muslim/Communist -

• Russia
• Asia (Afghanistan, Pakistan, South Ossetia)
• Mideast (Iraq, Iran, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Gaza)
• African Union (Yemen, Niger, Ethiopia, Somalia, Mauritania, Mali, Algeria, Libya, Djibouti, Morocco, Tunisia, C'oite de Oivre, Mauritania) 
• Europe (Albania)

• Central/South America (Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Panama)

Side 3: Indo-China

• China
• North Korea

Swing players -

• Asia (Ukraine, Japan, Taiwan, India (Kashmir), Thailand, South Korea, Malaysia, Mongolia, Kyrgyzstan)
• Mideast (Egypt, Turkey, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, Bahrain)
• Europe (Italy)
• Central/South America (Mexico, Haiti, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Falkland Islands,)

Non players - (Greenland, Iceland, Switzerland)

 Overall, there is a lot of movement, but not enough to kick start things quite yet.

Saudi Arabia, Check - A Review of the Chess Pieces Moving Into Place - Part 1

The pieces of the match continue to move with the globalists making an aggressive move -

Saudi police opened fire Thursday to disperse a protest in the mainly Shiite east, leaving at least one man injured, as the government struggled to prevent a wave of unrest sweeping the Arab world from reaching the kingdom.

The rare violence raised concern about a crackdown ahead of more planned protests after Friday prayers in different cities throughout the oil-rich kingdom. The pro-Western monarchy is concerned protests could open footholds for Shiite powerhouse Iran and has accused foreigners of stoking the protests, which are officially forbidden.

The Real Effect
This is not only a game of chess, but a sophisticated, hyper-dimensional drawn out brawl. Each issue, viewed separately, makes it virtually impossible to see the malicious machinations, but thoroughly explained and viewed as a whole, the picture of the endgame draws squarely into view.

You see, the globalists need a united devastated Europe (and to a lesser extent, globe) to bring their Phoenix into rule. But to accomplish such a feat, first you need to attack it with a credible enemy. But the issue becomes that people aren't generally willing to go along with such plans, so they must be guided into doing what the might deem right.

At the outset, it would appear that the protest/rioters would like a nice Democratic government, however, the thrust of their protests is not "for" a stance as much as it is "against" the status quo. Further, we must realize that to endeavor to end one issue is not inherently a referendum against another issue.  And in this paradigm is where the real danger lie. For those who pull the strings are fully cognizant of this fact and that when you crank up the heat, the desire of the recipient is not to question the situation at hand but merely to get out of the kitchen. To the level we have been deceived, we must realize that this holds true for the opposition. When deception is a given, you can rest assured that it will take a lot of time before the deception is eradicated.


As much as there is protests, there is a repeated global vote against the movement towards globalization at the hands of the globalists. To believe that all of the issues are the same, would miss the details pertinent to the situations at hand. However, they are all solely symptoms of a greater discontent that is resonating deep within the human psyche. Just how they acutely manifest depends largely on the geographical region that it manifests in. To simply chalk it up to some sort of global awakening places far too much credit on those that are merely reacting to the stimulus at hand. True, the global consciousness if you will, is learning more about the hand of the oppressor, but it is still learning about that which it craves most, liberty.

To be certain, the issues are predominately - Property rights and sovereignty. This is manifest in myriads of sub-issues but predominately in taxation and more specifically to service debt to bankers that manufacture that debt fraudulently.

At this juncture it has become necessary to address merely one aspect of the subject because these issues cannot rationally be dealt with simultaneously.

There is a new morality in play, defined simply as "Do as thou wilt"; yet the problem with this is it does not go far enough for the elite. Die, is more of their thing. And die we must, because the chess pieces are moving and our sacrifice will be demanded.

We examine more tomorrow in part 2.

A State of Things

Generally here on The Real Effect, I cover a given article on a day; noting the general trend the world is in and extrapolating the current course to predict the future. Somewhat simple, somewhat complex depending on your outlook. Today I wanted to take a moment to just note some general events occurring around the globe and how it may or may not impact things.

Europe - The debt situation in Europe continues to deteriorate even further as Greece desperately tries not to get flushed. Look for disruption in the Mideast to further tank European banks and subsequently their economy.

Saudi Arabia - The debasement of the dollar through QE2 continues to stir the hornet's nest with the long reported "Day of Rage" coming to Saudi Arabia on Friday. If this disruption hits the oil supply, Lindsey Williams' predictions of $150 oil may very well come true in the near-future.

Libya - A "no-fly zone" is all the rage at the moment. What a joke. Somehow, the United States thinks if there is some sort of conflict in the world, that we gain a moral imperative to bomb the country back to the stone age. This occurs without regard to our political leanings at the time, be they Rep. or Dem. We're definitely sore about this long standing "regime" and we're looking for any excuse possible to get involved. BAD IDEA. It didn't work in any of the past countries, so why would it work now? Here's a hint; quit messing in their country! (Israel too)

Iran - Continues to be a major goal of the globalists. Try and try as they might, the globalists can't get past a few facts:

1. They have and continue to lie about past invasions.
2. They are relying on scare tactics based on lies to get their invasion.
3. If Iran is so dangerous, why haven't they attacked anyone in 200 years? Further, who attacked them in the 80s? Oh yeah, the United States.

Bonds - Consequently, the dollar. Pimco stopped buying them and even sold everything they have. Uh oh. Look out below. The dollar is about to get shot again. (And yet we are still exporting money.)

Commodities - Continue to explode. Silver especially is on fire; as predicted closing in on $40 an ounce. Also predicted, volatile oil prices again and other food commodities. This isn't going to get better when the dollar implodes. Quite simply, the big money is buying everything that's important and will continue to do so for the immediate future. We need to follow Iceland's lead and arrest the criminal bankers.

China - They lie more about their economy then we do.

Israel - Flexing their muscles and eying up Lebanon. That last beating that they took must have stung quite a bit.

North Korea - We're poking them, again.

Republicans - What, they lie too?!? No WAY!

I may update this more later, but probably not. The long and short of it is: A global depression is here, it is being masked by governments which are spending massive amounts of cash to blind their people to the truth. They are eying up war with each other in order to remold the world, eliminate debt and give the populace something to do. The people, are catching on to the game and starting to fight back. Yet the globalists are blurring the lines and poisoning the wells in an attempt to pit us against each other. Who will win? Stay tuned for the next exciting chapter....

Florida Toll Booths CAUGHT Illegally Detaining Drivers for Paying with Large Bills

Illinois To Scrape 401ks?

Illinois does the despicable, predictable thing -

Illinois Senate President John Cullerton today suggested the state should start taxing the retirement income of senior citizens who are able to afford it. The state does not currently tax pensions or retirement funds such as 401(k) plans, but Cullerton told a City Club of Chicago luncheon that should take place as part of an overall look at what he said was Illinois' "outdated" tax system.

"It would just be a matter of fairness," said Cullerton, a Chicago Democrat. Details are still being worked out, but Cullerton said the state could bring in could bring in upward of $1.6 billion a year. Cullerton said the money could be used to provide tax relief elsewhere, whether that be lowering the corporate income tax rate, reworking sales tax rates or some other idea. Cullerton also suggested a means-test to avoid taxing low-income seniors.

The Real Effect
Fairness. Uh huh. Color me skeptical.

For anyone paying attention this should have been easy to spot from 10 miles away. Let's look at a simplified breakdown.

1. The United States creates an unbalanced situation in the world by bombing the infrastructures of most of the civilized world in World War II. This creates a somewhat false impression of American "greatness" in the minds of average people of the time.
2. This somewhat false prosperity further propped up an already hard working generation going into the 1950s to 1960s creating the unreal illusion of "The American Dream".
3. The prosperity starts to go to our egos. Through the late 1960s, CIA/socialist paradigms invade our culture, thanks in part to legal immigration and deliberate actions by government entities. This leads to a cultural "awakening" on many levels which overthrows traditional moral constraints.
4. The invasion of media, specifically the TV gives rise to a new form of "group think" in which the virtues of American life are foisted before a consuming generation. Surely other countries need this "American Dream". If only we foist it upon them.
5. Our predilection to export our values takes hold through myriads of wars, draining our economy and creating the foundations to drain our real wealth. Nationalism takes firm hold throughout the late 60s to early 70s.
6. Into the 80s, the left-right paradigm is honed, as the entitled "Dream Class Boomers" gives up completely on self-sacrifice and turns to child sacrifice legislation to ensure their financial returns. A boom ensues.
7. Convinced of their righteousness, laws are passed that solidify the hold on the coming generation's wealth. Deficits are run, accounts are raided under the false premise that it will be repaid. Fractures show as more immigrants are imported to keep the "Dream" going. After all, the natural consequences cannot only be avoided, but overcome completely. At least so the thinking goes.
8. The 90s see the divide and conquer strategy take hold completely as false paradigms ensue: White vs black, Rep vs Dem, gay vs straight - They are all out to get us and if they win, we lose.
9. 2000 sees the process nearly complete as all classes will do almost anything to prevent a cut to their pet project from happening. The class warfare of the previous generations have decimated the coffers and left property rights in shambles, yet 9/11 gives us a new external foe to unite us in servitude to our masters.
10. Having exhausted the supply of golden eggs, the butcher is brought in to avert the catastrophe again. Surely if we take the money again, this time we will succeed.

This is not a one issue crisis. While the solution is simple, the people will protest either way because they don't want the "Dream" to die. The problem is, the Dream died decades ago. The elected class will not tell us this primarily because WE DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT! So they are doing what they think is most expedient, giving us the Dream of prosperity because that's what we want.

We can create a new dream, but it requires several adjustments:

• Equal protection under the law - No Celebrity classes
• Property protection - This protects capital formation
• Liberty - The moral or immoral police state must be abolished.

Only then can we have true prosperity again.

The Dollar Is Publicly Trashed

After China's left hook to the jaw last night, the Wall Street Journal finds its place at the party -

Chile and Korea are hardly an anomaly: Fully 85% of foreign-exchange transactions world-wide are trades of other currencies for dollars. What's more, what is true of foreign-exchange transactions is true of other international business. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries sets the price of oil in dollars. The dollar is the currency of denomination of half of all international debt securities. More than 60% of the foreign reserves of central banks and governments are in dollars.

The greenback, in other words, is not just America's currency. It's the world's.

But as astonishing as that is, what may be even more astonishing is this: The dollar's reign is coming to an end.

I believe that over the next 10 years, we're going to see a profound shift toward a world in which several currencies compete for dominance.

 The Real Effect
Long time readers will remember the following from August 5, 2005 - 

Look for an increasing economic slide of the economy in the 2nd half of 2005 that causes the dollar to slide even further against the Euro setting the stage for a Union currency proposed to be called the Amero.

Now we can bicker over details, but the contraction did start happening as indicated, the dollar slid against the Euro and is now in trouble. But just to drive home the point, I present the following evidence -

1. I believe that the globalists are attempting to strip the American Economy by devaluing the dollar, weakening the American military through multiple prolonged conflicts and the removal of what was outstanding American influence over many countries in order to prepare us for a Global Union.

and in part of a truly prolific post, the following

So what happens next?

• The US dollar is going to tank (think Iceland)

 So here we stand, on the edge of the precipice, looking down and debating our future. Suddenly, things are looking pretty bleak. The small brush fires of yesteryear are combining into raging infernos today, threatening our well being. The blood is in the water and other nations are watching. Will we survive?

Scott Horton to Obama Butt Out of Libya!

Gun Rights - Do They Exist?

Of course it's not for confiscations. Yet -

The Illinois attorney general says state police must release the name of everyone in the state who is authorized to own a gun.

Illinois state police determine who gets a Firearm Owners Identification card, which allows people to own guns. The police have always kept the list private.

But Attorney General Lisa Madigan's public access counselor released a letter Monday night saying the information should be public.

The Associated Press had requested the list of FOID cardholders but state police said that would violate the privacy of gun owners. The attorney general's office ruled that argument invalid. State police officials have not said whether they will comply with the ruling.

There are Republican-sponsored bills in the Illinois House and Senate that would prohibit disclosure of the information.

The Real Effect
Perhaps Illinois is aware of the 2nd amendment, that guarantees a right to own firearms?
This is generally how liberty erodes, not at the barrel of a gun, but at the end of a pen stroke. Note the slide into tyranny -

• Introduction of Firearm Owners Identification card - Permits people to have an already permitted item.
• Illinois state police determine who gets a Firearm Owners Identification card - Control on the right. Of course everyone gets one, until they don't. This shifts the control from the People, to the Authorities.
• Attorney generals office ruled that argument invalid. (Regarding the FOIA) A bureaucratic office makes one decision that changes everything. Because, you know, they're sooo much smarter then us.

It doesn't take a psychic to see what comes next, once the list is released, some entrepreneurial group will find all the horrors of legally licensed gun-toting individuals. No doubt, there will be some doozies. Then, the clarion call, from a NGO of course, will resound across the land. 'These individuals can no longer be permitted to own guns! Our lives are in danger!' Then the political pressure hits and wham-o, confiscation. Not full confiscation mind-you, we're not that draconian. Yet.

Libya - Because What the US Really Needs Is ANOTHER War

Like the exposed fraud that blames everyone else in a futile attempt to cover up his own misdoings -

US Special Forces have reportedly landed in Libya to train anti-Gaddafi rebels as a western-backed coup d’état in the oil-rich nation nears, with British and French “defense advisors” also arriving to set up training bases in the rebel-controlled eastern region of the country.

According to a report in the Pakistan Observer, hundreds of special forces personnel from the US, Britain and France arrived on February 23 and 24 in “American and French warships and small naval boats off Libyan ports of Benghazi and Tobruk.”

The article states that the report was confirmed by a Libyan diplomat in the region, who said that “The three Western states have landed their special forces troops in Cyrinacia and are now setting up their bases and training centres,” in a bid to bolster rebel forces resisting Gaddafi’s militia in the surrounding region.

“The Western forces are reportedly preparing to set-up training bases for local militias set-up by the rebel forces for an effective control of the oil-rich region and counter any push by pro-Qaddafi forces from Tripoli,” states the report.

The Real Effect
Training bases? Oh yeah, that won't devolve into a "peacekeeping" mission complete with lucrative oil contracts to uh, compensate us for our generosity. Of course there are scores of problems with this mentality invasion:

1. We absolutely cannot afford this.
2. This is none of our business.
3. This will most likely turn into a catalyst for a world war. (Think Muslim vs. Christian)
4. The Libyans are doing just fine taking care of this war themselves.
5. Aren't we in enough wars already? Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, etc...

As if this wasn't enough, we get the usual policy hacks spitting out their support for Empire Building, liberty in Libya. They include the usual PNAC bunch, the same group that gave us 911 -

• Paul Wolfowitz
• Elliott Abrams
• Marc Thiessen
• Peter Wehner
• John Hannah
• William Kristol
• Robert Kagan
• Dan Senor
• Eric Edelman

Yes gentlemen, how's about we secure our border?

The truth of the matter is that this is the same old Ordo ab Chao policy that created most of the messes that we are in today and will create new ones for future interventions. Of course the IMF will need a piece too, to help with the rebuilding and all.

Now, imagine for a second that Iran invaded New Hampshire because they were struggling to be free. Would the rest of the United States stand for a foreign invasion by a religion that is hostile to our own? Further, why should the Arabs tolerate our presence there?

One last point, with Rahm Emmanuel now in charge of Chicago, I fear that a false flag will be staged there to justify an all out Christian jihad coming into 2012. Of course time will tell on that one.

The pieces are all connected, you just have to look long enough to find them all.
