December 28, 2011

In a recent hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sen. Al Franken reminded his fellow Americans, "People have a fundamental right to control their private information." At the hearing, Franken raised an alarm about Carrier IQ's software, CIQ.

Few people have ever heard about CIQ. Running under the app functions, CIQ doesn't require the user's consent (or knowledge) to operate. On Android phones, it can track a user's keystrokes, record telephone calls, store text messages, track location and more. Most troubling, it is difficult to impossible to disable.

Carrier IQ, located in Mountain View, CA, was founded in 2005 and is backed by a group of venture capitalists. Its software is installed on about 150 million wireless devices offered through AT&T, HTC, Nokia, RIM (BlackBerry), Samsung, Sprint and Verizon Wireless. It runs on a variety of operating systems, including the Apple OS and Google's Android (but not on Microsoft Windows).

At the hearing, Sen. Franken questioned FBI director Robert Muller about the FBI's use of CIQ software. Muller assured the senator that FBI agents "neither sought nor obtained any information" from Carrier IQ.

Following Muller's Senate testimony, Andrew Coward, Carrier IQ's VP of marketing, told the Associated Press that the FBI is the only law enforcement agency to contact them for data. The FBI has yet to issue a follow-up "clarification."

CIQ is emblematic of a growing number of ongoing battles that delineate the boundary of what, in the digital age, is personal, private life and information. In this era of 0s and 1s, of globalization and instantaneous communications, what it means to be a person seems to be both expanding and contracting. The battle over personal privacy is as old as the nation and as contemporary as the latest tech innovation. Eight fronts in this battle delineate personal privacy in the digital age.

1. Tracking

The Carrier IQ controversy exposed the long-festering problem of the Unique Device Identifiers (UDID), 40-digit-long strings of letters and numbers that distinguish one device from another. Most troubling, it cannot be blocked or removed by a user. (A report by the Electronic Freedom Foundation details how CIQ works.)

Sen. Franken's hearing took place a few weeks after Trevor Eckhart, a security researcher, exposed the extent of information accessible by the CIQ software; Eckhart works for a firm that is a potential rival to Carrier IQ. Nevertheless, his findings are disturbing.

According to the company, its software is designed to improve mobile communications. CIQ is used to help businesses with GPS tracking of mobile devices and coordinate employee travel. The company initially denied there was anything suspicious about its software. Further analysis revealed a bug that allowed SMS messages to be captured.

Making matters worse, Carrier IQ attempted to silence Eckhart with a cease-and-desist letter, demanding he replace his analysis with a statement disavowing his research. Bowing to online pressure, the company withdrew the letter.

In the wake of the mounting scandal, most of the nation's leading wireless providers are modifying how they implement CIQ. (For an excellent recap of the controversy and a status report on which carriers and phones employ CIQ, check out Brad Molen's article in Engadget.)

Carrier IQ is not the only company being challenged over alleged tracking. Earlier this year, two suits were filed challenging Apple over how it collects and exploits data gathered from users of its mobile devices. (See #5 below.) In addition, comScore, the online analytics firm, is being sued for allegedly collecting Social Security numbers, credit card numbers, passwords, and other data from unsuspecting consumers. Its software allegedly "modifies a computer's firewall settings, redirects Internet traffic, and can be upgraded and controlled remotely."

2. Reading, Watching and Hearing

One of the oldest fronts in the battle over personal privacy involves the cultural and intellectual media. This includes the books, newspapers and magazines people read; the movies, TV shows and videos they watch; the radio shows and music they listen to; and the live events they attend. Traditionally, these have been battlegrounds over which the great "analog" content wars of previous centuries were fought. They continue to be fought today.

Illuminati New Mind Control Tech Dec 29/11

The Illuminati goal is to enslave us. Mind control is their chosen method.

“The announcement, in the mainstream media, of the “precursor” form of this technology is meant to prepare the population for what is yet to come:  voluntary personality alteration, via thought-inducing technology.“

A month ago Dr. Makow published a precursor to this article which made the claim that “The Illuminati have the means to introduce thoughts, to influence nighttime dreams, and to produce visual projections seemingly in real time space. They have sponsored brain-pattern science because the ability to produce a controlling mental signal is the final key to controlling humanity.”

“The operating principle of this mind-control technology is a ‘sixth sense’ — the electromagnetic brain field. The scientific assessment is that this field is responsive — therefore, control is possible.”

Recently, a Daily Mail article has appeared: “‘Downloading’ new skills into our brains like characters on The Matrix set to become a reality, say scientists”

The article states:

“Learning a martial art, how to fly a plane or how to speak a new language without even being awake is set to become a reality, say researchers. Scientists at Boston University and ATR Computational Neuroscience Laboratories in Kyoto, Japan, believe that in the future learning a new skill might involve nothing more than sitting in front of a computer screen and waiting for it to ‘upload’.

“They have been studying how a functional magnetic resonance machine (FMRI) can ‘induce’ knowledge in someone through their visual cortex by sending signals that change their brain activity pattern.

“This process is called Decoded Neurofeedback, or ‘DecNef’.

“No medication is needed and the subject doesn’t even have to be awake, he or she simply has their brain activity changed to a ‘target’ pattern, which could be anything from that of a star footballer to a master chess player.

“Lead author Takeo Watanabe from the University of Boston said: ‘Adult early visual areas are sufficiently plastic to cause visual perceptual learning.’

“In the The Matrix trilogy the characters learn new skills by having a computer physically plugged into their brains and new skills directly uploaded. The day when we are able to do something similar is not too far away, say the researchers.”

My original article stated that a more sophisticated version of this technology is already in use. That was an educated guess. Profound “deep research” conducted in Illuminati-controlled labs is fed back, in seeping fashion, into the comparatively limp (and relatively under-funded) realm of mainstream academia, enough to produce hints and shades of advancements which are already well into their second- and third-tier stages of development. By this means, both society and the academic world are prepped to accept what is to come.

Meanwhile, it’s of no passing significance that the authors of this article chose to refer to The Matrix. The Matrix is a film that was written and directed by the Wachowski Brothers. Notably, the Wachowski Brothers likewise scripted the consummate Illuminati film, V for Vendetta. Both films featured a key Illuminati acting tool, Hugo Weaving.

Trickle Down Tyranny, Pipeline Fight & 911 #1 Dec 1/11

When I read a story yesterday about an 89-year-old woman being water-boarded by nursing home staff over an argument about ice cream, I knew something terrible was amiss across the American landscape. Spontaneous acts of tyranny have been cropping up lately like cancer tumors: a food tyrant in Nevada raids a farm picnic and orders everyone to destroy their food (http://www.naturalnews.com/034125_f...); student protesters in California get pepper-sprayed by thuggish cops who clearly enjoy causing pain and suffering (http://fieldnotes.msnbc.msn.com/_ne...); and now nursing home staffers torture their own resident using techniques borrowed from Guantanamo Bay (http://atlanta.cbslocal.com/2011/11...).

I watched all this with a sense of sadness and disgrace for the human race. And then a realization hit me like a sledgehammer...

People are only following by example

These random acts of tyranny aren't really random acts at all. They are the infantile acting-out of behaviors the childish American public has witnessed being demonstrated by their "leaders." The TSA sexually molesting air travelers isn't just a violation of fundamental human rights -- it's also a demonstration to the mindless masses that this is now "normal" behavior in society, you see.

So as the masses observe Big Government reaching down their own pants, they now get the message that it's okay to sexually molest little boys at sports stadiums, or that it's okay to take children away from parents through C.P.S. and then rape them as part of child relocation "processing" procedures.

When the American people see George Bush set up secret military prisons and condone waterboarding torture techniques, they called for Obama to stop the practice. Obama promised he would, and then not long after becoming President, he expanded Gitmo and actually presided over an increase in funding for the military and all its secret torture facilities.

The message to the American people? If Obama supports it, then torture must be okay. After all, he won a Nobel Peace Prize, so "peace" must be something that can be achieved through torture. Thus, we should not be at all surprised when an 89-year-old woman gets water-boarded in a nursing home. After all, those staffers are only doing to her what they've watched the U.S. leaders do to other human beings, too. (And yet, for some reason, the nursing home staff were arrested while all the high-level government operatives who engage in the exact same torture techniques are never even questioned...)

This phenomenon of everyday American people mirroring the behavior of federal "authorities" who act as tyrants needed a name, and as I began to ponder this issue, the name came to me in a flash:

I'm calling this phenomenon Trickle-Down Tyranny.

Trickle-Down Tyranny

Just as children mimic the actions of their parents, the childish minds of the insecure (and fear-pummeled) mainstream masses also mimic the actions of their parental role models. To many Americans -- and especially those of a more liberal mindset -- government takes on the role of their parents. The government is supposed to tell you what to eat, what to buy, what to believe and of course how to express your patriotism when needed to justify the latest war launched by a Nobel-Peace-Prize-winning warmonger. Government is the "authority" and the problem solver in the lives of these people. So naturally, in their childish mindset they seek to replicate the behaviors their parental role models are openly exhibiting.

Here's how this looks on the street: Your average city police officer is a wannabe tyrant who now, by watching the criminality of the federal government, feels he has permission to engage in the same tactics of intimidation and arrogance in ruling over the public (rather than serving to protect them). That's why so many big-city police officers have recently morphed into paramilitary jack-booted thugs; dressing in black, unlawfully arresting people for no justifiable reason, tasering innocent victims in wheelchairs, and generally acting out what is essentially a childish reflection of the very same tyranny they witness being demonstrated by high-level tyrants in Washington D.C.

The FBI, for its part, is busy actually masterminding the very same "terror plots" that it then magically "prevents" with great fanfare. As recently exposed in The Guardian (and other newspapers), the FBI actually develops terror plots, provides the plans, weapons, funding, motivation and equipment necessary for these "terrorists" to carry out those plots (http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/201...). This is a whole lot like playing a "big-boy" version of Cowboys and Indians, where all the scenarios are completely fabricated merely for the purpose of playing games as a source of entertainment.

Trickle-Down Tyranny is also now being seen in local schools, where "zero-tolerance" rules get children kicked out of the public education system for merely bringing a butter knife in their home-packed lunch, for example. Or a child caught with an aspirin tablet is labeled a "drug abuser" and condemned to special remediation classes.

The tyrants are everywhere in American society now

Think about the tyrants that have now descended upon you in your own life -- the tyrant down at the DMV, the tyrant dog license enforcer, the tyrant building inspector and the tyrant food service worker, also sometimes known as "soup Nazi."

When you really think about it, there are tyrants everywhere now in American culture. The fabric of fear and terror is being woven into that fabric with every "the threat level is now orange" alert put out by George Bush, or every "spy on your neighbors" message broadcast by the ogre of offensive tyrants, DHS head Janet Napolitano.

What these people claim to be doing -- "stopping terrorism!" -- pales in comparison to what they're really doing: setting examples to be followed by every single person across America who finds himself or herself in a position of authority. We'll just ALL be tyrants!

Terrorizing innocents is now politically correct behavior

Through its moronic (and completely fabricated) war on terror, the national leadership in the USA has made it politically correct to terrorize anyone over whom you exercise power. If you're a librarian, you can terrorize little children over past-due books (that is, if children actually read books at all anymore). If you're a septic tank inspector, you can terrorize people over the layout of their septic pipes. If you're a doctor, you can terrorize people over flu shots and chemotherapy, all being aggressively pushed with the very same fear tactics now used at the highest levels of national government.

The impact of all this is even international: Egypt's secret police group, famous for torturing dissidents, has just renamed itself "Homeland Security" in what appears to be homage to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (http://www.infowars.com/egypts-secr...). "Should we be concerned that a dictatorship which refuses to bow to the will of the people and allow democratic elections to proceed while engaging in savage attacks on demonstrators is re-naming itself after America’s foremost post-9/11 federal agency?" writes Paul Joseph Watson. "Egyptian authorities are justifying their brutal crackdown against protesters, with dozens killed over the last few days, by pointing to how U.S. law enforcement bodies are taking a "firm stance" against Occupy Wall Street protesters."

Trickle-down tyranny happens because the political leaders of America have broadcast a message across the nation that terrorizing innocent people is not merely okay, but downright patriotic! Anyone who says they're not going along with all the terror nonsense, the spy-on-your-neighbor paranoia and the "worship-your-imperialist-government" cultism is immediately branded an "extremist." It's now "extreme," you see, to not believe in torture and home-grown terror as a way to keep the sheeple in line. "Extremism" is now defined as opening your eyes, asking some commonsense questions, and refusing to follow the hypnotized masses as they are marched off a high cliff by the globalist population controllers.

Merely thinking for yourself, it turns out, is now "extreme." It's a brave new world after all, I suppose.

Fear and paranoia is being marketed to the public in an attempt to transform the citizenry into a grand spy ring

The social acceptance of spying on your neighbors and promoting fear has reached a new fervor across America, very nearly reflecting that of Nazi Germany in the late 1930's. It's now okay to call 911 on somebody merely because they happen to be writing something down on a scrap of paper in a public park (that's one of the signs of possible terrorism, according to ludicrous DHS public service videos that only breed paranoid thinking). It's now okay to spy on everyone around you and secretly observe them to see what they're doing. It's now your duty to watch over every scrap of luggage at the airport and start screaming about terror threats if some poor sap walks more than 10 feet away from his bags for a few seconds.

Recently, East Carolina University was thrust into a state of "lock down" for 3 hours after some spy-on-your-neighbor citizens reported a man walking around with an "assault rifle." That assault rifle, of course, turned out to be nothing more than a black umbrella (http://www.startribune.com/nation/1...).

But this is the level of outrageous hallucinations and total lunatic paranoia that has been unleashed on the American people today by a fear-mongering, imperialist government which worships fear and terror with almost cult-like zealousness. And they call conspiracy theorists paranoid? Maybe they should look in the mirror sometime... no well-informed conspiracy investigator would ever mistake an umbrella for an assault rifle in broad daylight.

The antidote is Trickle-Up Liberty

Fortunately, there's a ready solution to all this. The antidote to Trickle-Down Tyranny is Trickle-Up Liberty... also known as "grassroots People power." This is what happens when ordinary, everyday citizens realize that all government power comes from the People and that government is the servant of the People, not the other way around.

So they take to the streets and protest. They take their money out of the accounts of globalist banks. They stop buying GMOs. They fight against water fluoride in their local towns. They spread the word about Ron Paul. Trickle-Up Liberty is so powerful that it will sooner or later overcome Trickle-Down Tyranny... but only if enough people actually remember what liberty feels like.

That's why, as the editor of Natural News, I urge you to practice liberty in everything you do. Don't settle for tyranny when you can insist on liberty! After all, the Bill of Rights guarantees you a number of extremely important rights, many of which are now being quickly eroded. Stand up for restoring those rights and you will empower the phenomenon of Trickle-Up Liberty (grassroots liberty), which is the ultimate solution against Trickle-Down Tyranny.

You can also defend liberty by practicing common courtesy (and common sense) in your own positions of power. Don't terrorize people just because you can. Exercise common human decency and compassion for those who deserve your assistance. When you practice random acts of kindness, you alter the entire emotional landscape across America, replacing fear with kindness. Replacing terror with confidence.

If corporate CEOs would practice this, then... well, most corporations would probably go out of business because they're mostly in the business of screwing people over for a profit. "There is no such thing as a victimless billionaire," remember. That level of wealth accumulation simply doesn't happen without taking from others in the process.

But remember: In the end, kindness will always win out over terror. Spread a little around, and you'll see what a world of difference it can really make. And try to remember not to carry black umbrellas around any liberal college campuses, or you'll quickly find out what trickle-down tyranny really looks like.

The arrogance of TransCanada is shocking, even for an oil company.

Even while the White House has delayed the process for assessing a required permit for the Keystone XL, TransCanada is suing landowners who won't sell their land in its preferred pipeline path.

That path includes the 600 acre working-farm that Julia Trigg Crawford's grandfather bought in 1948, along the southern banks of the Red River on the Texas, Oklahoma border; just East of where Bois d'Arc Creek - which waters the farm - runs into the Red.

Even though TransCanada doesn't have a presidential permit to build the pipeline, the company has been threatening to confiscate properties like this from people like Julia Trigg; using eminent domain if the landowners don't immediately accept the foreign corporation's offer to buy an easement for the path of its pipeline.

It's wrong for TransCanada to expect landowners to accept permanent damage to their land for the Keystone XL pipeline, or possible oil spills in the rivers and creeks they rely on. It's doubly wrong to threaten these landowners and force them to comply for a pipeline that the company doesn't even have permission to build!

Tell TransCanada: Stop using eminent domain to confiscate private property for a pipeline that hasn't even been approved yet.

Under eminent domain, the government can force landowners to accept monetary payment for the use of their land for certain public-good projects like highways and railroads.

Of course, TransCanada's massive fuse to the carbon bomb of the tar sands shouldn't qualify as one of these projects - it does great harm and only helps the profits of a foreign corporation. But regardless, the company doesn't even have the permit to build it -- in fact the White House just put a likely year-long hold on pipeline development after a massive grassroots backlash from environmentalists. But that hasn't stopped TransCanada.

According to an article last month in The New York Times, the company has at least 34 eminent domain actions against landowners in Texas, and 22 in South Dakota.¹ And their threats to landowners in Nebraska² helped spark massive public opposition and a special legislative session that were key in the decision to consider a different route.

Many of these landowners are being sued by the company, and told that if they don't take the small monetary offering -- sometimes less than $10,000 in exchange for the permanent damage to their land, and huge risk of spills -- their land will be condemned and TransCanada will seize the easement.

Many landowners, like Julia Trigg, are fighting back and doing everything they can to oppose TransCanada's land grab.

Let's make sure that TransCanada is being called out for these reprehensible tactics, and that landowners who are taking on this foreign corporation know that we've got their backs.

Tell TransCanada: It's beyond arrogant to confiscate land for a pipeline that hasn't even been approved yet. Stop using eminent domain to sue landowners who don't want a dirty pipeline on their property.

Agenda 21 Exposed & Europe Meltdown,News! Nov 17/11

The concept of national sovereignty has been immutable, indeed a sacred principle of international relations.

It is a principle which will yield only slowly and reluctantly to the new imperatives of global environmental cooperation.

UN Commission on Global Governance

The Final Phase – Global governance

Over the last decade, the United Nations has brazenly been reinventing itself into a global government, striving to obtain the legal framework, financial resources and grassroots support to implement its policies. As outlined in my preceding articles it has effectively seized legal and regulatory control in many countries, through Agenda 21 <http://green-agenda.com/agenda21.html> , and developed a Constitution, the Earth Charter <http://green-agenda.com/earthcharter.html> , for its vision on a transformed global interdependent society.

In 1992 the UN formed a Commission on Global Governance <http://globalpolicy.igc.org/reform/initiatives/panels/governance/index.htm> charged with devising a system of future global management. Second in charge of the Commission, and lead author of its report, was Maurice Strong, with whom readers will be quite familiar by now. After several years of “extension consultation” with “world leaders, philosophers, and futurologists” the Commission produced a report entitled “Our Global Neighbourhood <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Global_Neighborhood> .”

The report contained many highly controversial recommendations. It was warmly welcomed by activists within the UN but harshly criticised by libertarians around the world who claimed that its recommendations entailed abolishing national sovereignty and suppressing the freedom of individuals. The report specifically denied it was supporting "global government" preferring the term "global governance" but its contents reveal all elements required for a genuine government. Besides, a little reflection yields the following question: How can one have global "governance" without global "government"?

The following are excerpts <http://www.libertymatters.org/globalgovernance.htm> from Our Global Neighbourhood:

"...countries are having to accept that in certain fields, sovereignty has to be exercised collectively, particularly in respect of the global commons."

"...the principle of sovereignty...must be further adapted to recognize changing realities."

"...there is a need to weigh a state's right to autonomy against its people's right to security."

"It is time to begin thinking about self-determination in a new context - the emerging context of a global neighbourhood rather than the traditional context of a world of separate states."

"The concept of global security must be broadened from the traditional focus of security of states to include the security of people and the security of the planet."

“Regionalism must precede globalism - [In Australia they want Local Councils to become Local Governments under U.N. control]. We foresee a seamless system of governance from local communities, individual states, regional unions and up through to the United Nations itself.”

"The concept of national sovereignty has been immutable, indeed a sacred principle of international relations. It is a principle which will yield only slowly and reluctantly to the new imperatives of global environmental cooperation. What is needed is recognition of the reality that...it is simply not feasible for sovereignty to be exercised unilaterally by individual nation-states, however powerful."

One of the primary thrusts of Our Global Neighbourhood was the formation of “regional blocs or unions to enhance political, economic and environmental security”.  The report proposed that “Regional Neighbourhoods” be established modelled closely on the successful example of the European Union. Recent years have seen a large number of such regional unions emerging, or being strengthened, including the African Union, The Mediterranean Neighbourhood Partnership, the Gulf States Coalition, and the proposed North American Union. The report also recommended a gradual reduction in the sovereignty of independent states, arguing strongly in favour of international “courts of accountability”, binding global agreements and significantly enhancing the legal authority of the UN. Dr Robert Muller, Assistant Secretary-General of the UN, and co-founder of UNESCO, clearly describes this UN plan for a new 'World Union':

"In my view, after fifty years of service in the United Nations system, I perceive the utmost urgency and absolute necessity for proper Earth government ... There is no shadow of a doubt that the present political and economic systems - if systems they are - are no longer appropriate and will lead to the end of life evolution on this planet. We must therefore absolutely and urgently look for new ways. The less we lose time, the less species and nature will be destroyed.

Since the United Nations is the only world-wide, universal organization that is presently available, since it had fifty years of valuable experience and many successes, since it paved the way to proper Earth government, instead of putting it on the defensive, unjustified attacks and criticism, reduction of resources and non-payment of obligatory contributions, governments should honestly ask themselves if a better way would not be to consider a second  generation United Nations upgraded by a true quantum jump into a proper Earth preserving and human well-being and justice ensuring organization of our planet.

The continental approach to a world union remains an important avenue. One could conceive five continental unions: the European Union, an American, an African, an Asian, and an Australian Union. A World Union could be constructed as a super-structure and common political, economic and environmental instrument to achieve these objectives. "

from - The Earth Charter in Action <http://www.goodmorningworld.org/earthgov/>

This strategy appears to be based on the Club of Rome's proposal to divide the earth into 10 administrative regions which they outlined in their report Mankind at the Turning Point. You can find their original map in my previous article <http://green-agenda.com/turningpoint.html> on that topic. Interestingly the UN is currently in the process of reviewing and reforming the organization, with particular emphasis on the Security Council. Several alternative models have been proposed which will make the Council more 'representative and democratic.' One of these, the Italian Model, proposes replacing the current 10 seats held by individual nations with 10 seats representing 'regional unions', 2 seats for Europe, 3 for Asia etc. You can compare the different proposals here <http://www.centerforunreform.org/system/files/Special+Paper+No.+4.pdf> .

Our Global Neighbourhood concluded with 12 key recommendations <http://www.sovereignty.net/p/gov/gganalysis.htm>  which I have listed below, and it was these that caused such a furore that the rest of the report barely received a comment. The UN claimed that the report was merely a “visioning exercise” intended to generate discussion and did not represent official UN policy goals. The report was effectively shelved and the Commission was disbanded:

1. Consolidation of all international agencies under the direct oversight of the United Nations.

2. Regulation by the United Nations of all transnational organizations and financial institutions.

3. Independent source of revenue for the United Nations and taxes on aircraft and shipping fuels, and licensing the use of the global commons.

4. Eliminate the veto power and the permanent member status on the Security Council.

5. Authorize a United Nations ready reaction force.

6. Require United Nations registration of all arms and the reduction of national armies as a part of a multilateral global security system under the authority of the United Nations.

7. Require individual and national compliance with all United Nations Human Rights treaties.

8. Activate the International Criminal Court, make the International Court of Justice compulsory for all nations, and give individuals the right to petition the courts to remedy social injustice.

9. Create a new institution to establish economic and environmental security by ensuring sustainable development.

10. Create a new international environmental court.

On the evening of Thursday 3rd November 2011, the Irish government announced that Ireland (culturally and historically a strong Roman Catholic country) was closing its embassy in Vatican City (Rome). The chosen cover story was austerity. The Vatican embassy was being closed because it yielded no economic return to the Irish state; scrapping the mission would save Irish taxpayers €1.25 million a year.

Other countries are poised to follow Ireland in closing their embassies. A coordinated drip-by-drip erosion of public credibility for the Vatican as being anything other than a money-driven and self-interested religious cult, is in process. This deliberate and visible takedown started in June 2010 with Interpol-supported paedophile sex investigation raids by Belgian police on major Roman Catholic premises in the Archdiocese of Mechelen-Brussels.

The move is part of a covert international chess game designed to fragment and destroy the G5 Western banking cabal following the adoption of the Monaco Accords of August 2011, to which in excess of one hundred nations worldwide are now subscribed.

The Vatican, like the Mafia, is a controlled front-organisation for the Italian P2 masonic lodge. Vatican City is also one of the three privileged and autonomous city states which coordinate élite pan-global organised crime for the Western banking cabal. The other two are Washington DC and the City of London.

Washington DC is a privately owned non-Constitutional corporation which is the seat of an illegal governing entity called the "United States" (US) - not the United States of America (USA). The Washington legal control-system operates under the British Maritime Admiralty Law of Flags, not under American Constitutional Law. Notice the gold fringe. Who put that there?

The City of London Corporation is a privately owned "square mile" of ancient, non-accountable vested interests with its own private police force. It is not administratively, politically or constitutionally, part of London (UK). The City of London has a Lord Mayor. London (UK) has a mayor. They are two different people "elected" by two different legal entities.

The division of labour between the Vatican, Washington DC and the City of London is well-established. The Vatican oversees religious cover for organised geofinancial crime and runs child-prostitution rackets through its churches, schools, hospitals and orphanages across the world.

Washington DC has a military mandate to foment continual war and artificial shooting-conflicts to generate business opportunities for the Western cabal's international corporations.

The City of London Corporation is in charge of the hidden piggy banks. It rigs the stock and commodities markets, coordinates tax avoidance schemes for major corporations, creates money-out-of-nothing for the ancient "royal" bloodline families, and protects the interests of the London Crown Temple.
