All along we have been saying that the semantics and hype surrounding the debt ceiling debate would be for not and that "business as usual" would prevail. This celebratory piece, published by the NY Times on Sunday (excerpted above), is just the kind of propaga ...
July 29, 2011
We have been predicting in these humble pages that the current crises sweeping through the world's financial marts would be used to galvanize support for an even greater consolidation of globalist power. And now, here comes Christine Lagarde, speaking at the Co ...
July 28, 2011
The debate over the debt ceiling is anything but trivial for the poweres-that-be. Political pundits on both sides of the dialectic, along with their media confidants, would like us to believe that there is a real concern over the "acceptable level" of debt. Wel ...
July 27, 2011
The horror of Anders Breivik's actions cannot be explained away. To shoot 70 or so young people at point blank range using dum-dum bullets for nearly two years to make a rhetorical point (he issued a 1,500 page manifesto on line which now has been taken down) i ...
July 27, 2011
The world is run by Anglosphere power elites with tactical arms in Israel, Washington and perhaps the Vatican. It is abetted by corporate, political and military enablers. Its enemy is classical liberal sociopolitical stances and free-market thinking. Conservat ...
July 26, 2011
With nary a ripple in the mainstream press, the US Government Accountability Office has released an "audit" of the Federal Reserve loan program in 2008 that, according to the Washington Post (see above excerpt) highlights possible conflicts of interest in the i ...
July 26, 2011
Why does an article like this appear in the Telegraph? It is a "Tory" paper that supports the royal family and serves as a foil to papers like the leftist Guardian in the UK. The elites evidently and obviously control both papers, but the Hegelian Dialectic bei ...
July 25, 2011
The US is struggling with US$200 trillion in unredeemable commitments to the world and its own population; the Eurozone is gradually sinking under the weight of the PIGS sovereign debt; and China, the third pillar of the world's economic façade is likely facin ...
July 25, 2011
One of the biggest reasons the Anglo-American elite lost the war in Afghanistan is because the wealthy families that make up Pakistan's elite were distrustful of both NATO and the US military-industrial comlex. In this article, excerpted above, we can see how t ...
July 22, 2011
We have watched the unraveling of Europe for over a year now and can say with some shock and dismay, as the final act grows near, that what we have been treated to is probably nothing more than an elaborately scripted farce. Or call it a dominant social theme ( ...
July 22, 2011
The US mainstream media is in full cry over the end of the space shuttle program. This article in US Today is a good example of it, tugging on the heart strings to remind readers of the glory that once was. But we continually remind ourselves that when one look ...
July 21, 2011
The economic crisis that started in 2008 has not subsided in our view. The dollar reserve system essentially ended and nothing has yet been put in its place. This may be by design as the elites have signaled clearly their intention to move toward global governa ...
July 21, 2011
The New York Times recently reported on the case of Bruce E. Ivins, who committed suicide after being pursued by the Federal Bureau of Investigations over sending anthrax-laced letters to members of Congress and others. According to the filing, which was requir ...
July 20, 2011
We can see in this article (excerpted above) the naked obviousness of a power elite dominant social theme. The crisis the EU faces is now said to be an international emergency and thus must be solved to protect the world. Greece's default is now somehow a globa ...
July 20, 2011
The Germans have their own Tea Party movement. We didn't know this until a feedbacker mentioned it recently. But we looked it up; it's true. The entire country is convulsed; it's bigger than what's happening in the US. You've read about it, haven't you? ... Hav ...
July 19, 2011
This is a perfect Newsweek article by new editor Tina Brown – pitch perfect. The trouble is that the pitch is from decade ago. The sociopolitial and economic conversation has moved on, but it seems Tina Brown and Newsweek are stuck in the 1990s. The writer of ...
July 19, 2011
This really isn't funny to us. We've kinda lost our sense of humor, at least about John Maynard, Keynes, Keynesianism, The Fabian Society, the Bloomsbury group ... and all the rest. We're seeing the results of Keynesianism all around us and it isn't pretty. A f ...

Douglas Reed's long suppressed book, the Controversy of Zion, now online and available for download, is receiving more and more exposure. In this article, we will summarize the book – which has only reinforced our belief that the Internet alternative media do ...
July 18, 2011
Evans-Pritchard believes that Europe ought to be split into TWO currency zones – a Germanic one and a French one. He also believes the European Central Bank is trying to do too much and that it ought to switch from inflation fighting to job-targeting. The ide ...
July 15, 2011
Ben Bernanke stumbles from one public relations disaster to another. Fresh off his ludicrous statement to Congressman Ron Paul (left) that gold is not money, he has indicated that he's ready to buy more of America's junk bonds using currency printed from nothin ...
July 15, 2011
What we may have here is another dominant social theme – a promotion that seeks to trivialize what is most powerful about the Internet. That is, its ability to broadcast voices that would as yet be unheard and provide a platform for likeminded individuals who ...
July 14, 2011
This is an interesting article, once again, by the Excavator, a university student who runs a blog devoted to exposing the new world order. He has apparently discovered a book written by William Ralph Inge, a professor of divinity at Cambridge and Dean of St Pa ...
July 14, 2011
The totalitarian mindset – always lurking at the dark heart of the European Union – has revealed itself publicly once again. A top central banker has stated in an open forum (see excerpt above) that the world's most important financial rating agencies perfo ...
July 13, 2011
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; the best all lack conviction and the rest, from our point view, rely on the false strategy of numerical consolation. Increasingly, the West's mutual fund managers, researchers and analysts retreat to well-appointed inn ...
July 13, 2011
The lightbulb law is only a tiny matter, but sometimes such issues take on a kind of transcendental importance. The reversal of this law would be one positive example of the impact of the Internet Reformation, albeit a tiny one, that people may be starting to r ...
July 12, 2011
Joe Scarborough recently posted an interesting article at Politico focusing on a kind of sub-dominant social theme in the mainstream American media regarding the debt ceiling that Congress is trying to raise. At the end of the article (see above excerpt), he sh ...
July 12, 2011
There is good evidence as well that the problems have been repeatedly damped down. British Prime Minister Tony Blair supposedly had a hand in repressing them during his term in office. The British police themselves have sat on the charges as the police are said ...
July 11, 2011
The newspapers are in full cry today. Top Eurocrats are meeting secretly to discuss the sovereign debt crisis, which has now spread to Italy. Appropriate actions will need to be taken. At this critical juncture we find a curious editorial presented by the Teleg ...
July 11, 2011
From our point of view what causes the terrible boom and bust cycle of Western economies is central banking, the ability to print money-from-nothing. Curiously, Washington does not mention central banking at all and we are not sure why. Without central banking, ...
July 08, 2011
We have often suggested that the 20th century was a kind of Dreamtime when Anglosphere elite control was at its highest point and people accepted most of the power elite's dominant social themes. But in the 21st century many of these memes have begun to unravel ...
July 08, 2011
The rebel forces sprang out of nowhere as part of the "Arab Spring" and apparently had the support of the West. But the past months have shown that the situation "on the ground" is more complicated than Anglo-American elites likely ever imagined. What has emerg ...
July 07, 2011
The Telegraph's Ambrose Evans-Pritchard has returned to the fold after a long absence to remind us that the real action regarding a united Europe lies not in Brussels but in Germany. In an article entitled "Germany's judges hold the euro's fate in their hands" ...
July 07, 2011
Today's testing cannot "gild the lily." There is none. The only hope of solving the education problem in the US is to allow educational facilities to compete – to privatize the educational establishment from top-to-bottom and let the Invisible Hand do its wor ...
July 06, 2011
How did we know Chinese numbers were junk even before the latest startling revelations? Because China is currently the world's biggest "planned" economy and government numbers ALWAYS lie. China's Western public perception is built on the lie that its communist ...
July 06, 2011
Apparently there is another internationalist push on, this time having to do with a child protection "Convention." Thus, the Kutcher prostitution-promotion satisfies several memes at once. It reinforces certain male stereotypes and contrasts them favorably with ...
July 05, 2011
Now UK columnists such as Jeremy Warner are worried about a British "lost decade." This is to follow on the heels of a Japanese lost decade. Of course, exactly which decade the Japanese have lost is debatable. From what we read in the mainstream media, Japan ha ...
July 05, 2011
Are America's wars expanding? NATO's wars are really America's wars, so that in a sense wherever NATO goes America follows. NATO is an engagement force of the Anglosphere. We would argue (as we have before) that as the size and intensity of these wars increase, ...
July 04, 2011
In this article, we've tried to lay out our differences with Professor Mead. He sees a Shining Light on a Hill. We see in America a society almost totally traduced by Londondinium. He sees national interest; we see countries irradiated and sickened by depleted ...
July 04, 2011
We can see from the above article excerpt in Reuters that the Eurocrats are wasting no time in stating what they intend to do to Greece. Jean-Claude Juncker, Prime Minister of Luxembourg and President of the Eurogroup, has gone out of his way to make an extraor ...
July 01, 2011
This is classical Keynesian analysis to us and it is representative of the way that financial journalists on both sides of the "pond" treat the current, unrolling economic disaster. Western financial journos in aggregate still don't seem to understand the gravi ...
July 01, 2011
This article excerpted above, "Electric Comet: The Elephant in NASA's Living Room?" by Michael Goodspeed of Thunderbolts.inc, provides us with a seemingly excellent example of a concise argument for an electrical universe. The article appears to be the most rec ...
June 30, 2011
It wasn't supposed to be like this. The Bloomberg article excerpted above, recites the appropriate dominant social theme as regards the European Union, but the tone is likely a good deal more doleful than Eurocrats may have expected when planning the EU's great ...
June 30, 2011
This post (excerpted above) at The Excavator was also picked up by the Infowars media group. The Excavator is the project of someone called Saman Mohammad, a "Truth Excavator" and the blog contains a number of lengthy articles exposing power elite manipulations ...
June 29, 2011
Yesterday, we discussed a speech by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao. It was a very inoffensive speech, presented with mild words, until you deconstructed it and saw that at its core, it was a fundamentally fascist approach to human interaction. In this article, we w ...
June 29, 2011
NAP and morality are obviously necessary when envisioning a freer society. But the HOW of living is important too. Today we understand more about the building blocks of freedom (or we should, anyway), about private justice, self-sufficiency and avoiding falling ...
