Gold and the Kingdom of the Beast

"One last note: No form of paper wealth will survive the financial crush once the CB's (Central Banks) stop selling (gold)! NOTHING!" - Another, THE GRAND LBMA EXPOSE: A Collective-Mind Analysis, Part 7, October 9, 1997

"So here we have the bizarre possibility that the CB's (Central Banks) have agreed to the announcement of their own (paper based) demise - with the public emergence of a viable commodity based currency system." - GFD, THE GRAND LBMA EXPOSE: A Collective-Mind Analysis, Part 1, January 31, 1997

"As the world economy continues to globalize, there is no reason that the dollar or the euro should be called upon to perform the role to which they now aspire, that of a reserve currency beyond national borders. As an apolitical financial asset, gold represents the superior foundation for a new currency to facilitate the expansion of borderless commerce." - John Hathaway, The Tocqueville Funds, Gold as Theater, August 23, 2001

"It seems to me that any conspiracy concerning Gold is aimed at officially re-instating it as the international currency for World trade purposes… This theory might also help explain Another's warning about 'not liking the final outcome' of this exercise because all currencies will eventually be related to the international trading unit Gold but their creation and management will continue in much the same manner as they are now, aided by the electronic factor." - Pedro, THE GRAND LBMA EXPOSE: A Collective-Mind Analysis, Part 10, October 25, 1997

"I am of the opinion that either the Rothschilds, who have benefited as the gold bullion traders par-excellence in Europe for over 200 years, are positioning themselves…for the ensuing meltdown of fiat/paper currencies (that will come) or they are part of an even grander oligarchy of merchant bankers that through their influence on the Fed are playing their part (as master bullion traders) and systematically orchestrating the collapse of the U.S. paper and stock market system… The "backup" system you mention may in fact be a new global medium of exchange…electronic fund transfer systems…that is already ready for globalization and which has been tested in various countries already." - Oracle of Alberta, THE GRAND LBMA EXPOSE: A Collective-Mind Analysis, Part 5, September 1997

"It would make sense for the Rothschilds, Rockefellers and other powerful merchant banking interests to manufacture a sentiment that gold is dead…it is in their interest to leave the masses believing that gold is no longer a store of value (thus currency) but rather a simple commodity. The fact is, a Rothschild knows otherwise, from a history of gold trading in 200 years of European history." - Oracle of Alberta, THE GRAND LBMA EXPOSE: A Collective-Mind Analysis, Part 5, September 1997 (emphasis added)

"It is my conviction that the shady characters who are behind the scenes in this world…have a plan which they have been carrying out over the past decades…We have been witnessing a new way of accumulating gold,…through mass-deception, through manipulation of the mass-mind, which was never before possible…These unidentified characters have used the dollar to accumulate wealth, and they have been going after the gold. They can well see, that the present international monetary system is doomed." - Hugo Salinas Price, Gold yesterday, today and tomorrow, January 22, 2002

OK, if I concede the argument for the moment and agree that gold is not merely a commodity, why a gold standard again? We've tried it once…

"For 6,000 years, the only real store of wealth that has survived every government, currency, and war has been gold... As King Solomon wisely said, 'There is nothing new under the sun.' EVERY gold suppression effort in history has failed…" - Adam Hamilton, Gold Boiling in Oil, June 30, 2000

"One thing I know is certain...the Roths and Rocks long for stability…for in that situation they thrive and benefit…they ultimately seek peace and avoid chaos…" - Zardoz, THE GRAND LBMA EXPOSE: A Collective-Mind Analysis, Part 7, October 15, 1997

I am not informed enough to speculate on the point of why we ever left the gold standard in the first place. Perhaps these behind-the-scenes designers needed to crash all paper currencies and found the opportunity to do so by tying them all to the dollar at Bretton Woods, which had been previously "floated" after the Great Depression. Maybe it was a grand Keynesian experiment. Maybe they just needed to buy some time. In the end, they know what is needed for sound money, structural financial stability, and the means to usher in a peaceful and workable world order…GOLD.

Now, we must take a little detour in order to get the full understanding of God's depiction of this New World Order and how gold fits snugly and uniquely into its ultimate zenith. To begin, we look at current headline news, America's "War on Terror." Where might this fit in and where is it leading us?

"Dubya has thrust us into a war that was aptly described by Shakespeare: 'Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war, in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch, and the blood boils with hate, and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear, and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all their rights unto the leader, and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar.'" - Don Stott, Most Americans Are Stupid, April 20, 2002

"Any federal law enforcement agency may enter your home or business when you are not there, collect evidence, not tell you about it, and then use that evidence to convict you of a crime; (This nullifies the 4th Amendment to the Constitution). And, says the ACLU, it doesn't even have to be a terrorism investigation, just a criminal investigation. [Section 213 - The Sneak and Peek provision]…The foundation for an international secret political police agency is laid by allowing the CIA to receive wiretap information from any local agency and then share it with the intelligence services of any foreign country. [Section 203]" - Michael C. Ruppert, From The Wilderness, "F Word", November 2001 (Sections referencing Terrorism Bill)

Unfortunately, there is much more of this in the new Terrorism Bill. Government is taking more and more control in many arenas of our lives. We now have cameras on our interstate highways going into the city here in big town Florida. Taxes, Central Bankers, government regulations and subsidies, welfare socialist state programs, etc., plague the productive sector of this nation and, to borrow the words of the Declaration of Independence, "eat out their substance." I could belabor this thought indefinitely, but let me instead stop short with yet another interesting quote from the Declaration and two from wise men we should all know…

"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed." - The Declaration of Independence, Action of Second Continental Congress, July 4, 1776

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." - Benjamin Franklin, in his "Papers", as quoted by Ed Bugos, Capitalism's Paradox, the Fed, March 25, 2002

"Most socialists or Statists by definition see a future where all the nation's resources can be shared, or divided up, equally or not, with varying caveats and according to a grand design… We may look at the world today and conclude that with the fall of the Berlin wall in Germany and the Soviet Union in Russia, capitalism has been victorious finally. But it hasn't. The rejection of capitalism is alive and well today, and it is underwritten by the largest, most powerful, and richest central planning establishment in the history of the world, which most people paradoxically see today as the instrument of capitalism (referring to the Fed). That misperception may very well be the downfall of capitalism, and thus by extension, freedom, at least as we know it today. When politicians talk of a new world order, maybe now you'll know what they mean. It's about power not freedom." - Ed Bugos, Capitalism's Paradox, the Fed, March 25, 2002 (emphasis added)

Surely, this "War on Terror" is part of the planned move toward the New World Order…

"The reality is that long before the attacks on the World Trade Towers the US Government told India there would be an invasion of Afghanistan in October. Even the BBC heard about the planned invasion of Afghanistan before the events of 9/11. As far back as March 2001 Jane's Defense got word of the planned US invasion of Afghanistan." - Author unknown, Red, White, and Blue Storm Rising, April 2002

"As FTW (From the Wilderness) has documented in previous stories, major deployments of U.S. and British forces had taken place before the attacks (of 9/11). And the U.S. Army and the CIA had been active in Uzbekistan for several years. There is now evidence that what the world is witnessing is a cold and calculated war plan - at least four years in the making - and that, from reading Brzezinski's own words about Pearl Harbor, the World Trade Center attacks were just the trigger needed to set the final conquest in motion." - Michael C. Ruppert A War in the Planning for Four Years, HOW STUPID DO THEY THINK WE ARE?, From The Wilderness Publications, November 7, 2001

"World events since the attacks of September 11, 2001 have not only been predicted, but also planned, orchestrated and - as their architects would like to believe - controlled. The current Central Asian war is not a response to terrorism, nor is it a reaction to Islamic fundamentalism. It is in fact, in the words of one of the most powerful men on the planet, the beginning of a final conflict before total world domination by the United States leads to the dissolution of all national governments. This, says Brzezinski, will lead to nation states being incorporated into a new world order…" - Michael C. Ruppert A War in the Planning for Four Years, HOW STUPID DO THEY THINK WE ARE?, From The Wilderness Publications, November 7, 2001

Sadly, America will take its role in flowing right into it. We will not revolt, because we have become too accustomed to giving up our responsibility to assure our rights and liberties and entrusting the government with this crucial role. Those of us who know better are 'disposed to suffer' because of this self-same complacency of the masses. How could we ever possibly convince them of what their eventual fate will be, and ours with them, against this backdrop…

"There's a quote often attributed to Allen Dulles after it was noted that the final 1964 report of the Warren Commission on the assassination of JFK contained dramatic inconsistencies. Those inconsistencies, in effect, disproved the Commission's own final conclusion that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone on November 22, 1963… Dulles...is reported to have said, "The American people don't read." - Michael C. Ruppert, A War in the Planning for Four Years, HOW STUPID DO THEY THINK WE ARE?, From The Wilderness Publications, November 7, 2001 (emphasis added)

The plan was brashly set before us in 1997, but even before then we were being alerted.

"This position (referring to 'World events…' quoted above) is corroborated by Dr. Johannes B. Koeppl, Ph.D, a former German defense ministry official and advisor to former NATO Secretary General Manfred Werner. On November 6, he told FTW, "The interests behind the Bush Administration, such as the CFR, The Trilateral Commission - founded by Brzezinski for David Rockefeller - and the Bilderberger Group, have prepared for and are now moving to implement open world dictatorship within the next five years." - Michael C. Ruppert A War in the Planning for Four Years, HOW STUPID DO THEY THINK WE ARE?, From The Wilderness Publications, November 7, 2001 (emphasis added)

"While seconded from the German defense ministry to NATO in the late 1970's, Dr. Johannes Koeppl...traveled to Washington on more than one occasion. He also met with Brzezinski in the White House on more than one occasion. His other Washington contacts included Steve Larabee from the CFR, John J. McCloy, former CIA Director, economist Milton Friedman, and officials from Carter's Office of Management and Budget. He is the first person I have ever interviewed who has made a direct presentation at a Bilderberger conference and he has also made numerous presentations to sub-groups of the Trilateral Commission. That was before he spoke out against them… His fall from grace was rapid after he realized that Brzezinski was part of a group intending to impose a world dictatorship. 'In 1983/4 I warned of a take-over of world governments being orchestrated by these people. There was an obvious plan to subvert true democracies and selected leaders were not being chosen based upon character but upon their loyalty to an economic system run by the elites and dedicated to preserving their power.'" - Michael C. Ruppert A War in the Planning for Four Years, HOW STUPID DO THEY THINK WE ARE?, From The Wilderness Publications, November 7, 2001

Mr. Ruppert's article is replete with quotes from Brzezinski's book "THE GRAND CHESSBOARD - American Primacy And It's Geostrategic Imperatives," Basic Books, 1997, which give further detailed evidences of the beginning phases now unfolding to implement the plans elucidated by Dr. Koeppl. There is nothing more damning than self-incrimination.

So, it appears we are now committed to the course determined to bring in the New World Order we have heard talked about for at least a couple of decades now…

"Let no reasonable person have any illusions. Let no person anywhere on the planet not realize exactly what will happen in the next decade. This new world order constructed tower of Babel is about to come crashing down around our ears just like the World Trade Towers did in New York…our new world order masters are rapidly imposing a dictatorship and I am watching Bible prophecy unfold at an almost daily rate… We will get our global dictator now. And then I can only have faith we will then get our returning Messiah and a just kingdom for 1000 years. - Doug McIntosh, It is Finished, September 20, 2001

Brace yourselves!, because you are not going to like this new Order after the deceptive luster wears off…

"On the surface a move to a homogenous global 'system' of currency, trade, language and even religion seems attractive, almost utopian. But is it?… The tragedy is that when such a union is constructed, you and I will be beholden to the powers which control and 'manage' those global systems." - Zardoz, THE GRAND LBMA EXPOSE: A Collective-Mind Analysis, Part 10, October 25, 1997

"Possibly the best description of The Plan in terms of its call for a One World Government is found in a book…entitled Solar Man. Authored by Thomas P. Ehrenzeller…(he) carefully describes how the world is to be grouped together in regions with the European Community being the cornerstone of the world government: 'We will do this by creating regional groups of nations. The different nations can become more compatible. Then, we can form our nations into regional groupings, and we can align those groupings into one unit which can ultimately encompass the entire world.'" - Texe Marrs, Millennium, Peace, Promises, and the Day They Take Our Money Away, pgs. 72 & 73, Copyright 1990

"The Order has in mind dividing the world into ten regions, or ten spheres of influence. Each of these regions will be an association of nations grouped together according to geography. But above and beyond these ten regions will be three divisions. That is, the whole world is to be divided and placed under the control of three reigning nation-states. The first will be Japan, the second, Europe, and the third a combined U.S.A. and Russia." - Texe Marrs, Millennium, Peace, Promises, and the Day They Take Our Money Away, pg. 76, Copyright 1990

"Another internationalist group…promoting the New International Economic Order is the Club of Rome. It is not so amazing, then, to discover that the Club of Rome, whose membership is comprised of some of the world's most influential and wealthy men, has a plan for a New World Order in which all of the world's nations will be placed within ten groupings. The first three groups are the most powerful and these are the very same groups promoted by the Trilateral Commission. First is North America, made up of Canada and the United States of America. Group Two is Western Europe, which will be led by Germany. Group Three is Japan." - Texe Marrs, Millennium, Peace, Promises, and the Day They Take Our Money Away, pg. 182, Copyright 1990

Ten regions, three super-regions within the ten, one leader at the top, controlling the world… where have I heard all this before?

       "And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the names of blasphemy…and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him?…and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months." - Revelation 13:1,3-5

       "And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour [or literally: a (certain) hour] with the beast. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast." - Revelation 17:12,13

       "And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth." - Revelation 17:11 (…in other words it's a worldwide dominion.)
