What We Can Expect: Ten Top Elite Memes for 2013
What a year it's been, marked mainly by increasing worldwide chaos, senseless wars and economic upheaval, all leading inevitably to increased "chaos" out of which shiny, new global government can be born – along with new, more global currencies.
The top elites – the ones we think control central banking and money creation – created an EU sovereign crisis, from what we can tell, and wasted the world's time this past year in intense and fruitless negotiations to "resolve it." There can be no resolution, of course, and that's just the point. The EU mess is to continue until every aspect of that pitiful union is further centralized and bureaucratized.
In the US, phony economic crises struck with increased urgency, one after the other, finally leading to the largest of all, the so-called Fiscal Cliff. The Cliff will be resolved, of course, leading to a round of self-congratulation covered by the bought-and-paid-for mainstream press.
And then, promptly, there will be another crisis. The United States is being brought down with one phony crisis after another. The idea apparently is to place the US in a position where it can merge economically with countries like Mexico and Brazil. In order for this to happen, the US economy has to be reduced, and that is well underway.
China is another country the top elites have apparently worked hard to position within the larger global order. After installing a Western-style financial system in China, that country's top apparatchiks revved up money printing and created a white-hot economy. How long this can be sustained is anybody's guess. But the idea is for China to continue to grow at an outlandish rate, driven by a furiously pumping central banking engine.
The West is benefited by China's "progress" not because of China's economic vitality so much as the creation of a Western counterweight, a new power that can be portrayed as a rival to the West, thus justifying further authoritarian measures in both countries. The goal, as ever, is further centralization leading to world government.
Let's look at some of 2013's trends. (Yes, there are more than are mentioned below, so please feel free to provide additional ones). The Daily Bell's main focus is on what we call dominant social themes, power elite promotions that seek to frighten middle classes into giving up power and wealth to globalist institutions. These will be alive and well in 2013.
What can we expect (in no particular order)?
China's economy will get still bigger and perhaps implode despite efforts to save it: We've dealt with China, above, but this is one of the biggest of all elite themes, that China is rising as the West is failing. The West needs enemies, just as China does. An expanding China suits both entities. Question: Can the white-hot Chinese economy be sustained for another year?
China will make threatening moves against the West and vice versa: The outlines of the next Cold War can be seen in the coverage of the Chinese economy and the insistence of the top ChiComs themselves on fighting over relatively small bits of island real estate in the Pacific. Question: Can enough serious provocations be unearthed to make China appear as a looming USSR threatening the West?
In Russia, Putin will continue to be vaguely adversarial to Western interests and military affairs. Like China, Russia is being "prepped" as an enemy of the West and leader Vladimir Putin is positioning himself as a "great leader" Russian-style representing Russia's interests against a corrupt West. Question: Given that Putin is really part of a Russian "Intel" Mafioso, how long can he keep up the charade?
The BRICS, including India and Brazil, will continue to limp along but will be portrayed as shining examples of capitalism. India and Brazil are being portrayed as engines of commerce but both are fairly dysfunctional corporate and political entities. Question: Can they sustain economic performance or will they lapse into the price inflation that is already threatening both economies?
The US economy will be portrayed as being healthier. Healthier than what? The US economy is a mess despite predictions of recovery. Debt and government spending are out of control and even if the economy does snap back a bit, the Fed will then be forced to raise interest rates because of the money that now sits on the sidelines. Question: How can a recovery be sustained when 1970s-style interest rates are in the offing?
US military dominance will be extended to South America once again under the guise of a renewed "war on drugs." The Pentagon and CIA are at it again, spreading personnel throughout South America to combat a non-existent war on drugs. Question: Will the average Latin American citizen go along with a renewed US takeover in light of what we call the Internet Reformation?
US Intel and associated IRS interests will increasingly attempt to enforce US rules and taxes worldwide. The power elite is using US tax policy to expand dominance over the world's banking system. This is taking place despite considerable pushback. Question: Will this effort continue and be imposed successfully or will it founder, as others have before?
Scarcity memes – especially regarding food and water – will be promoted. It is becoming increasingly obvious that the power elite intends to create various droughts and starvation throughout the world as a way of introducing chaos that can then be resolved via further authoritarian actions. Monsanto is at the "tip of the spear" in this regard. Question: Will the world's long-suffering populations in developing countries put up with it or will they begin to expose it?
Western wars will continue to be promoted under the guise of a "war on terror." Attacks on the Internet will continue. As we've covered regularly, the Middle East is being converted into an Islamic Crescent by covert Western wars that are creating Islamic governments. Thus, the "war on terror" is expanded – and terrorism will continue to be used as a meme to further attack the Internet and the alternative media that has evolved as a result. Question: Can the powers-that-be continue to support and expand the phony war on terror while reducing Internet freedoms – or will there be (eventually) significant "blowback"?
National Socialist policies and further authoritarianism will continue to be promoted throughout the West and especially within the EU. When one examines the globalist policies now being put into place, one is struck by various National Socialist elements. Nazi public banking (see Ellen Brown) and generally the creation of the Imperial State organizing and controlling corporate marketplaces are the order of the day. Question: Given the exposure of this emergent police state, especially in the US and the EU, will it be possible to expand this political structure without considerable resistance?
The larger question looms, of course: Shall the Internet Reformation itself (which we regularly track) undermine power elite advances or shall it subside as elite dominant social themes and false flags overwhelm it?
We'll keep covering this issue regularly and, as you can see, we've updated and expanded The Daily Bell Web site to make our coverage more effective and accessible.
I'm very proud of the work that's gone into the new site and the team that has made an ongoing commitment to produce what is surely one of the best and most professional Web sites of its kind.
By the time we're finished, The Daily Bell will be accessible in a number of languages; and our vision of a world where markets rather than governments are respected as the foundation of society will continue to be heard.

I have read extensively from many different sources, not the internet, that Islam is on the rise and spreading througout the world and it is a fact that the plan is to install an Islamic Caliphate to unite all Islamic people and take over the world for allah and shariah law,
The west must not continue to be naive as to the plans of the Islamic people and it must dismiss the notion that islam is a peaceful religion. In fact, it is very much a Political/religious system that now have nucleur weapons in it's possession and are threatening to use them.
We must be at war with them. They must be stopped before it's too late for the west. There are Islamic sleeper cells that are controlled by the many mosques being built throughout the United States and other western countries, just biding thier time until it's ready to act. There is an unprecidented increase in the yearly immigration rate of Islamic radicals to the United States.
There are one and one half billion Islamics in the world and one percent or more are radical and those who claim to be peaceful do not speak out about what the others are doing, they know what's going on yet they sit back and do nothing even though they live in the United States and Europe as well as the mddle east.
We do have an extremely serious problem. Perhaps our leaders should take the time to read the Koran and those who already know what's in it need to do something about it, radical Islamics have even infiltrated Homeland Secuirty and other high positions in the United States. The Koran clearly states the islamic intentions and the Islamic leaders clearly state thier intentions. They have been planning for many many years to gain back the glory that they once had and now at last with the advent of the oil resources the time seems opportune for them. Wake up people, read and learn and act.

Goodness. The Islamic Peril. Perhaps Muslim communities and mosques in the US should be subject to Homeland Security drone attacks ...

It will be interesting to see how the President's December 20th proclomation "To Extend Nondiscriminatory Treatment (Normal Trade Relations Treatment) to the Products of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Moldova" will play into the "prepping" of Russia as an enemy of the west.

The FED will be forced to increase interest rates because of all the money sitting on the sidelines?
How do you figure that? Aren't you assuming that the elite want to rescue the economy? On what basis do you assume that?
If interest rates are increased the government goes bankrupt even faster. That would necessitate raising taxes greatly, an iffy proposition. If the elite plan is to 'take the US down' to the level of the BRICS or lower, increasing interest rates would be the last thing they would do as increased interest rates would, by enlisting all that scared money on the sidelines, stimulate increased economic activity and recovery of the economy and would negate all the effort it took to scare all that money to the sidelines in the first place. Or are you of the opinion that economic matters are just the sum of random accidents?
Reply from The Daily Bell
Oh, come on. Sure the system is designed to capsize its participants but not OBVIOUSLY. You believe if price inflation moves up rapidly that the FED would not react? They always do. They HAVE to do so. It's part of the mandate.

Very good and informative article. I also must say Anthony that I just love to look at your picture... You're so cute.

My only request is for the article authors to show a little more defiance, and let the PTB know in no uncertain terms we we eventually have a mouthful and spit them out. Gun control is not something we will accept without loss of life on both sides.

We analyze the memes of the power elite. Is this not an intrinsically defiant act?

I think this is a cutting edge statement by the DB:
"A simple analysis of how global government is forming shows us clearly that there is a group that plans this together and the evolution is not a competitive coincidence. Go back in time and examine the Rountable, CFR and Trilateral committee. The same people are involved over and over. There do not seem to be any competing factions, though there is competition."
DB, what is the nature of this competition?
Reply from The Daily Bell
Well ... mostly human competition within the ranks ... Nothing institutionalized.

hello all,
i like the new site, but... . ;)
why do you guys still use an obsolete proprietary technology (Windows Server 2003+Microsoft-IIS/6.0) (from one of the companies whose bosses are so eager to follow the same memes you always and well expose?) when you have such great Free/Open Source technologies coming from independent/distributed sources like GNU/Linux distros such as Debian+LAMP, CentOS+LAMP (or nginx+postgresql etc) or maybe a BSD?
keep up the good work...
just my 2 cents of €... .while we still have it ;)

I'm not completely sold that this is a phony fiscal crisis from the perspective of the Military Industrial Complex (MIC). The fortunes of the MIC are totally bound to fiat. If fiat falls so does the MIC.
The US Navy promotes an aging rusty bucket formerly known as the Varyag as a credible Chinese carrier threat. China bought the carrier used from Russia then painted "Liaoning" on its side. Viola! A clear and present danger.
The McCain dynasty (John's father and grandfather were the first father-son pair to achieve four-star rank) stands as mute testimony that carriers are worth their weight in gold when it comes to providing admiralty career tracks. One suspects the presence of at least three admirals on each carrier: a bow admiral, a stern admiral, and an amidship "tie breaker" admiral.
World War II belligerents originally designed aircraft carriers for battle in the vast Pacific Ocean. Nowadays carriers seem mostly regulated to ceremonial roles of provocation. Trolling the shores of Iran, for instance, desperately seeking an official reaction.
