“Anyone seeking to prove the existence of
conspiracies in Americaneeds look no further than the origin of our present
central bank. Here is a well documented conspiracy involving the very names
tied to modern secret societies.” -Jim Marrs, “Rule by Secrecy” (68)
“Somebody
is using us. The business of banking was set up in the year 1099. An income tax
form is a 1099. Who decided on that? Think about it.” -Jordan Maxwell, “Matrix of Power”
When a country
centralizes banking, it concentrates an enormous amount wealth into a single
institution, works mainly to make the rich richer, and opens the government to
control from foreign interests. As Bill Clinton’s mentor Dr. Carroll Quigley
wrote:"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 inBasle, Switzerland; a private
bank owned and controlled by the worlds' 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 offinanciers and the indirect
injury of all other economic groups."
With
institutions like IMF and World Bank along with new Unioncurrencies like the EU Euro further consolidating and centralizing the world’s banking and
currencies, the amount of global influence these international bankers have on
world economies and politics is extraordinary. Their method of control is just
like a loan-shark or the mafia. Firstly to qualify for loans, desperate nations
are forced into pawning mines, railways, forests, power or water companies.
Then to pay off the loans nations are forced to do things like ignore
environmental laws, lower wages/cut back on education or health care, and
privatize/sell off their resources to crooked corporations like Enron and
Exxon. Whenever these poor countries cannot pay off the loans, the “generous”
international bankers simply give new, higher-interest loans to pay off the old
ones, further indebting/enslaving the nation. As Mayer Amschel Rothschild said, "Let me issue and control a nation’s money and I care not
who writes the laws.” More
recently, Richard McKenna, former President of Midlands Bank of England said, “Those that create and issue the money and credit direct the
policies of government and hold in their hands the destiny of the people.”
“It is
a well known fact that international bankers have financed nations to fight
against each other.Where do you think the countries gettheir money to buy
tanks, guns, uniforms, etc., to arm their nation for war? They
borrow from internationalbankers.International bankers have financed both sides
of countries at war with each other. They don't care who wins, because while
the nations are borrowing huge amounts of money to kill each other,
international bankers make huge amounts on money from the interest charges that
they make each nation pay. They also have the power to control the outcome of
the war by simply cutting off the flow of money they lend. So, under the
threat of war, international bankers have used their power to gain or increase
control over governments. By keeping a nation in debt they are in a position to demand a voice in the government affairs of the
nation. Another goal which they have already achieved is to control all the
world's monetary systems.” -Alex
Christopher, “Pandora’s Box – The Ultimate Unseen Hand Behind the New World Order,”
(146)
"I sincerely believe that banking establishments are more
dangerous than standing armies … If the American people
ever allow the private banks to control the issue of their currency, first
by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and the corporations that 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
Despite Jefferson’s warnings, in 1791 Alexander Hamilton, the
Secretary of the Treasury, pushed a Congressional charter through to create the
First Bank of the United States which stood for 20 years until 1811 when President James
Madison and Vice President George Clinton refused to sign/renew the charter. Madison said, “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 the money and its issuance.”Strangely
enough, only 5 years later, still under Madison’s
Presidency, in 1816 he signed the charter for the second national bank. Such hypocritical action raised suspicion of
bribe or blackmail at work behind the scenes.
In 1828 Andrew Jackson said in a speech addressing the
central bankers, “You are a den of vipers andthieves. I intend to rout you
out and by the Eternal God, I will rout you out … ifpeople only understood the
rank injustice of the money and banking system, there would be a revolution by
morning.” As President for the next 8 years Jackson worked to abolish the federal charter of the
Second Bank of the U.S. In 1835 an attempt was made on his life. The would be
assassin, Richard Lawrence, pointed two pistols at Jackson, pulled the triggers, and miraculously both misfired. Jackson immediately proceeded to beat Lawrence with his cane. Lawrence would later tell police he wanted to kill Jackson because“money would be more plenty” for him and that he “could not rise until the President fell.” He said the American government owed him a
large sum of money, but Andrew Jackson was preventing him from receiving it.
This is most definitely a reference to Andrew Jackson’s struggles with the
Central Bank, which was the obvious motivation for such an attempt on his life.
In 1836 Jackson succeeded in abolishing the second national bank, stating, “The bold effort the present bank had made
to control the government are but premonitions of the fate that await
the American people should they be deluded into a perpetuation
of this institution or the establishment of another like it.” When asked on his death bed what his life's greatest
accomplishment was, Jackson replied, "I Killed The Bank."
Fortunately we were not deluded
into the perpetuation of that second national bank, but unfortunately, we were
tricked into the establishment of another much worse than it. From 1837 – 1863 was a period of free banking in America during which only state-chartered banks existed and the
values of silver and gold were very stable. In 1863 the Rothschild interests
had succeeded in forcing a bill through Congress via their insider Treasury
Secretary Salmon P. Chase. He passed the National Banking Act, once again
creating a federally chartered central bank, one with the power to print and
issue paper money. At the time President Abraham Lincoln fought against the
central bankers and said: “The money power preys upon the nation in time of peace and
conspires against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than
monarchy, more insolent thanautocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. I see in
the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me, and causes me to tremble
for the safety of our country. Corporations have been enthroned, an era of
corruption will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to
prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people, until the
wealth is aggregated in a few hands, and the republic is destroyed.” He was shot and killed a year and a half
later in April, 1865.
From 1864 – 1913 the
National Banking Act and the Civil War all but forced the majority ofAmerica’s
banks to become nationalized. The effort to create the third U.S. central
bank began in 1873 when the bloodline international banking cartel engineered
the first of three financial panics which they used to scare the public into
accepting the Federal Reserve.
"A study of the panics of 1873, 1893 and 1907 indicates
that these panics were the result of the international bankers' operations
inLondon. The public was demanding in 1908 that Congress enact legislation to
prevent the recurrence of artificially induced money panics."
-Eustace Mullins, “Secrets of the Federal Reserve”
In 1881
President Garfield was assassinated less than four months after taking office.
He was another anti-banking establishment President, who took action and spoke
out against them. He was “coincidentally” shot and killed shortly after
declaring:“Whosoever 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.” The
next Presidential assassination happened 20 years later when a supposed
“anarchist” shot William McKinley twice at point-blank range. Once again,
McKinley was a strong supporter of the gold standard and helped pass the Gold Standard Act of 1900 less than a year before his death.
On
November 22nd, 1910, seven of the richest men in the world met at
J.P. Morgan’s personal island retreat off the coast of Georgia called “Jekyll Island.”
The 7 men were Frank A. Vanderlip, Abraham Piatt Andrew, Henry P. Davidson,
Charles D. Norton, Benjamin
Strong, Paul
Moritz Warburg, and Nelson W. Aldrich. Behind these men stood the
banking/investment interests of the Rockefellers, Rothschilds,Schiffs, Morgans, and Warburgs. The 7 Jekyll Island conspirators
met for 7 days and planned a series of radical banking reforms necessary to
create the Federal Reserve.
When the
media learned about the Jekyll Island meetings, the bankers all claimed they were out duck
hunting. Later in life, however, conspirator and president of NY National City
Bank, Frank A. Vanderlip admitted otherwise when he wrote: "There was an occasion near the close of 1910, when I was
as secretive, indeed, as furtive as any conspirator ... I do not feel it is any
exaggeration to speak of our secret expedition to Jekyll Island as the occasion
of the actual conception of what eventually became the Federal Reserve
System." Woodrow
Wilson had said of the earlier three financial crises that, "All thistrouble could be averted if we appointed a
committee of six or seven public spirited .men like J. P. Morgan to handle the
affairs of our country." And
that is exactly what happened.
"So
the American people, who had suffered through the American Revolution, the War
of 1812, the battles between Andrew Jackson and the Second Bank of the United
States, the Civil War, the previous panics of 1873 and 1893, and now the Panic
of 1907, were finally conditioned to the point of accepting the solution
offered by those who had caused all of these events: the international bankers.
That solution was a central bank.” -Ralph
Epperson
“These men concluded not to have one central bank in the United States, but
several and they agreed that no one was to utter the words ‘central’ or ‘bank.’
Most important, they decided that this creation would be made to look like an
official agency of the U.S.government.” -Jim Marrs, “Rule by Secrecy” (73)
They
called it the Federal Reserve, but it is neither federal nor a reserve. It is
about as federal as Federal Express, and as much a reserve as American Indian reservations. It is a network of banks (5
originally, now 12), headed at the New
York branch,
all of them privately owned, but made to appear like an official government
agency. The original stockholders of the Federal Reserve were Rockefellers, Rothschilds,
Warburgs, Russells, Morgans, Peabodys, and Reynolds - all Illuminati
families.
“The Federal Reserve Bank of New York was controlled by five
banks which owned 53% of its stock. These five banks were controlled by Nathan
M. Rothschild & Sons of London.
Control over the U.S. Fed is basically control
over the world’s money. That fact alone shows how immense the Rothschild Power
is. If one examines who has been appointed to head the Fed, and to run it, the
connections of the "Federal" Reserve System to the Rothschilds can
further be seen. Another private enterprise using the name Federal that the
Rothschilds also direct is Federal Express. Any one else might be taken to
court for making their businesses sound like they are government, not the Rothschilds.
It is appropriate for them to appropriate the name of Federal, because by way
of MI6 via the CIA they instruct the U.S. government. Senators are
bought and paid off by their system, as investigators of the BCCI are
discovering.” –Fritz
Springmeier, “Bloodlines of the Illuminati”

In 1913 in an effort to pacify dissenters, the conspirators
pre-planned a fake opposition to their central bank scheme. House Banking and
Currency Committee chairman Carter Glass wrote what was promoted as an
alternative solution, the Federal Reserve Act.
“Jekyll Island planners Vanderlip and
Aldrich spoke out venomously against Glass's bill, even though entire sections
were identical to the Aldrich Plan. It was clearly an effort to garner public
support for the Glass bill by the appearance of banker opposition … The appearance
of opposition by Wall Street was necessary. William McAdoo, Wilson's son-in-law
who was appointed secretary of the Treasury, later revealed, ‘Bankers fought
the . . . Federal Reserve Act with the tireless energy of men fighting a forest
fire. They said it was populistic, socialistic, half-baked, destructive,
infantile, badly conceived and unworkable.’ However, McAdoo said in interviews
with these bankers, ‘I perceived gradually, through all the haze and smoke of
controversy, that the banking world was not really as much opposed to the bill
as it pretended to be....’ Wilson signed the Federal
Reserve Act on December 23, 1913, just two days before Christmas with some
Congressmen already home for the holidays and with the average citizen's
attention clearly elsewhere.” -Jim
Marrs, “Rule by Secrecy” (73-5)
