Russia and Ukraine War

I was doing some research.  

We are always lied to.  

Russia is not like USA. USA goes out of its territory to start wars. Irak, Syria, Libya, Vietnam, Afghanistan etc.  all ended in disaster for those nations, millions of deaths.  

Russia has been invaded by the west for hundreds of years, therefore, all the nations west of Russia are her buffer nations, Poland, Ukraine, Belarus, Romania, Macedonia etc. and these nations came out of the collapsed Soviet Union.  

The buffet nations act as protection to Russia against the west. 

Now Putin advised NATO and USA to not initiate or push Ukraine to join NATO or any other alliance with USA or the west.  

What did NATO do or USA? They were confronting Russia by talking about a military base or bases in Ukraine.  

Now Putin is no angel, and war is not the answer. But we are being fed wrong news. It is again the USAs fault that war began.  

USA could have easily said, no to bases and ended it without war months ago.  

Russia is protecting herself from the west.  

At least, I read it this way.

Turkey and Walmart and Costco

Turkey is actually a country that does not need USA any longer, before yes they needed their help, but now, less. 

USAs foreign policy has pushed Turkey to get closer with her neighbours. 

Like what is going on? here is a comparison of a recent transaction between the counties. 

USA (Walmart) does not deliver the jets Turkey bought and paid a deposit on, as written and promised in the contract signed. And when Turkey goes across the street to Russia (Costco) to buy them, Turkey is the bad guy?!?

No way,

Bombing of Syria

Bombing of Syria

 

Here we go again, another USA administration bombing a country.  How many countries has the USA bombed in the past quarter century?  A dozen? 

 

I am saddened to see people in Syria suffer, however, bombing is not the answer, and we should know this by now.

 

The Obama administration rightly stayed out of Syria. 

 

The fighting in Syria has cost hundreds of thousands of lives and displaced millions in Syria since the beginning of the war, which I believe is at the sixth year mark.

 

The direct American involvement that began on April 7, 2017 with over 50 cruise missiles attacking has caused even further destruction in this country.  I believe this military action is a complete error by USA.  The USA constitution does not require that American forces fight in every war around the world; this one should have been sat out.  

 

The immense resources of the United States should be dedicated rather, to one single goal:

Reduce human suffering with humanitarian aid.

 

President Trump should immediately cease all direct attacks on the Syrian regime and instead help the people of this country.

 

Thank you for reading,

USA Land Size

USA Land Size

I came by the following information and wanted to share this today, as I found it to be important to know. 

Briefly, I wanted to know how USA increased the land size.  

Do you know which territories and/or states were part of America prior to 1830?  You might have an idea, I understand this.  

Now, add the following states of:
New Mexico, 
Arizona, 
Utah, 
Nevada, and 
California 
to America's size, as USA won the Mexican-American War, which occurred on the dates of 1846 to 1848.  

Also, the modern state of Texas was created partly from the Republic of Texas, which had won independence from Mexico in 1836 and became a state in 1845; and partly from land ceded by Mexico in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, after the Mexican-American War.

  
As we can understand, USA increased the land size dramatically around year of 1850. 

I found this topic to be very interesting, and wanted to bring to your attention. 

Sincerely now,

The All Seeing Eye

The All Seeing Eye

Have you ever wondered  what the 'All Seeing Eye' and the 'Pyramid' on the USA 1 dollar bill symbolizes?

          Annuit coeptis

I will briefly write about this today, but in another blog, at a later date, I will expand on this topic.   

I did a lot of research and concluded that  they mean the following: 

Eye:

The Eye symbolizes the omnipresence and omniscience of God watching over all things.  It's also associated with the "Trinity".  Also, The Eye is regularly associated with spiritual knowledge in scripture. 

Pyramid:

The Pyramid symbolizes a connection of "three".  The Father, Word and the Holy Ghost are "one".  

Man is made up of three parts: body, soul and spirit.  

Time is: past, present and future.  

All colors derive from three basic colors (plus white which is the absence of color): red, blue and green. 

Matter is: liquid, vapor (gas) and solids. 

In life, everything is in threes and therefore often symbolized in the three lines of a triangle.

Sincerely,

Ben

  

Puppets within the Federal Reserve

Puppets within the Federal Reserve

The members in the board of the FED, the Federal Reserve, are nothing more than puppets, and do not have actual powers, and they are put there by the Elite Men, who want the policies, the monetary policies to be approved, which will benefit them and not the general public.  

          Federal reserve

I went right into the main point in my blog today, I did not want to write a lengthy blog, as I am getting the impression that people are actually starting to understand and wonder the troublesome path of our banking system.   

This is also true of the members on the board of the corrupt World Bank and IMF, which is the International Monetary Fund; all are puppets and are told how to operate by others.  

I will write in more detail about the World Bank; today, the topic is Puppets within the Federal Reserve.   

The Federal Reserve is not a Public institution, it is most definitely a private entity, owned by a private individual or a group of individuals. 

Let me list the reasons below, which points to the FED, not being a public institution.  

- The FED is not organized within the Executive, Legislative or Judicial branches of the government of the USA.  

- Who pays the FED’s bills and determines its budget? No you are wrong, it is not the government.  

- The FED gets its funding from its own specially privileged operations and the Board determines its own budgets and gets approval by 'Other' parties, who are not in the picture.   

- Who monitors and oversees FED's activities? Again the FED itself.  While some elements of proper auditing have taken place, there has not yet been a comprehensive independent audit, by the Government Accountability Office.

- FED's employees are not part of the US Civil Service System and are not covered by 'government employees’ health insurance or pension programs.  

- Who does the hiring and firing? Except for the highly publicized Chairman and the seven member Washington Board, this is in private, unelected hands.

- Federal Reserve Banks are not listed as government organizations by the telephone companies. 

It is time for the government to take back control of its monetary policy, and therefore the FED needs to be dissolved and/or taken out of the ownership of the 'Elite Men'. 

Sincerely, 

Ben

There are Known Unknowns

There are Known Unknowns 

Donald Rumsfeld gave a briefing to the media after bombing Irak, on the date of February 2002.   

          Mr Rumsfeld 

The country of Irak has since tailspined into utter dispare and absolute chaos. 

During the briefing, part of his comments are as:
'... because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know, we know.  We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know.  But there are also unknown unknowns, the ones we don't know we don't know...."

What is this man talking about? Is he trying to say that the USA killed for no reason whatsoever and that they terrorized a country based on absolute lies, since the world now knows that there were 'no mass chemical warfare'. 

          No truth here

I am hoping that USA and the rest of the G8 countries will not try to justify some sort of a lie to bomb the country of Iran.  

Sincerely now, 

Rid

High Canadian Dollar

High Canadian Dollar

Canadian dollar is set at 93.80 per USA dollar.  

          Currency exchange comparison chart 

The Canadian dollar is at a six-month high against the USA dollar, as the recent rise in inflation has bolstered the the buying of the Canadian dollar. 

This brings the Canadian dollar back to its 2014 highs, last seen in early January.  

This is good news for some industry and not so good news for others. 

One obvious conclusion is that the Canadian dollar has benefited from USA dollars weakness in the past few weeks.  

Should I say, enjoying while this lasts?

Sincerely now,

Ben

The United States Notes

The United States Notes

This is a continuation to my previous writings titled:

'Executive Order number 11110'

'The Elite Banking stopping JFK'

http://onlythebrave10.blogspot.ca/2014/02/the-elite-bankers-stopping-jfk.html?m=0

If the above links does not work, please copy/paste the link to the 'address bar'. 

Today, I would like to write about the difference between the 'Bank Note', named 'United States Notes' (USN), introduced by the President John F Kennedy (JFK), with the current money in circulation, named 'Federal Reserve Note' (FRN).  

Briefly, I would like to state again that the USN were issued as an interest-free and debt-free currency backed by 'Silver reserves' sitting in the USA Treasury Vault.  This was an absolute good reason to proceed with this brilliant idea.  

However, the USN did not stay in circulation for very long.  

The President JFK was assassinated on November 22, 1963, and the USN, he bravely issued were immediately taken out of circulation.  Currently, the FRN are the only legal currency of the USA.  

What did the USN look like?

The USN looked like the FRN, the differences are that:

on the top of the Bank Note, one states 'United States Note', instead of 'Federal Reserve Note'.  

Also, the USN has a red seal, while the FRN has a green seal.  

The difference are just that, however the ramification of not continuing with the USN is this; the USN were backed by Silver Reserves and the FRN were not backed by anything of intrinsic value.   The USA's total debt has increased dramatically since 1963; and if the country would have continued with USN, large portion of this debt would not accumulated, since the country would not have to borrow the money from the 'Federal Reserve Bank' at Interest.  

We need to re-visit the idea of 'United States Notes'. 

Thank you,

Reality of Amero

Reality of Amero

‘Amero’ is a proposed name for the future North American Currency, which would replace the ‘Canadian Lonnie’,  ‘American Dollar’, and ‘Mexican peso. 

This proposal is in existence and the authorities consistently meet to discuss the implementation of the ‘Amero’, as it is a way for the United States, Canada, and Mexico to collaborate on issues such as:

Customs,

Environmental and safety regulations,

Narcotics smuggling, and

Terrorism.

Implementation of the ‘Amero’ would involve the three countries named above to give up their current currency.  The new currency is modeled on the European Union Currency (Euro), and it is argued to be a natural extension of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP).

Also, another major benefit stated of the ‘Amero’ is believed that it will eventually increase trade through reduced complication for transactions of currency exchange rates between the three countries, as this would be eliminated.

The biggest drawbacks of changing over to the Amero would that the 'Federal Reserve' of USA will need to give up control of the 'money supply'.  The FED of the United States would be restricted on monetary policy.  The changes would:

Interest Rates and "money printing" would now be under the control of three countries rather than one,

The USA would no longer stand alone in its trade negotiations with other countries of the world, and

The USA would be subject to the rules of the neighboring two countries which could reduce its economic power.  

For now, the ‘Amero’ is just an idea that has been kicked around and talked about with no real plans for implementation, yet.  

We will continue to monitor the developments regarding the 'Amero'. 

Thank you, 

Ben

Worst 3 Drops in History

Worst 3 Drops in History 

Today, the 'Dow Jones Industrial Average' dropped 326 points to end the day at 15,372.80.  After numerous highs in 2013, the 'Dow Jones' has lost a total of 7.3% since january 1, 2014.  

This 'sizeable' drop made me wonder what was the 'Worst 3 drops in history' of the Dow Jones Industrial.  

Below, are the dates and brief reason for the drops: 

3. 

April 14, 2000.  

Total Drop: 618 points (5.7%)

After learning that core consumer prices had risen 0.4%, which was more than expected, investors got rid of technology stocks in droves.  The sell-off spread to other industries causing all 30 stocks of the Dow Jones to fall.  Between Monday and Friday of that week investors lost a total of 2 trillion dollars.  

2. 

September 17, 2001.  

Total Drop: 684 points (7.1%)

Following the worst terrorist attack in USA history on September 11, 2001, the market plummeted on its first day of trading, after being closed for one week.  

1.  

September 29, 2008. 

778 points (7.0%)

The USA 'House of Representatives' failure to pass President George Bush Administration's 700 billion dollar bailout plan triggered the biggest one-day point drop in the history of the 'Dow Jones Industrial Average'.   The market plummeted, with sellers frantically dumping stocks as fears mounted that Congress would be unable to come up with a speedy fix.  

I hope we never see these kinds of drops again, and 'recovery' is surely in the coming days.

12 Years a Slave

12 Years a Slave

This is my review of the movie, 12 Years a Slave, after watching it this week.

Solomon Northup, who is played by Chiwetel Ejiofor, is an average family man living in New York, with his wife and two children.  

The troubles and slavery of the 'South States' of 1840s America seem very far away to him, until he is kidnapped one night and sold into slavery.  He is tortured repeatedly until he realizes that he needs to accept his current situation and new identity given to him as 'Platt Hamilton' a slave.  

The movie, 12 Years A Slave, is a hellish view into the nightmare world of slavery in America, through the eyes of Solomon Northup / Platt Hamilton.  

Every day brings with it the possibility of torture and/or death at the hands of all or one of his masters.  Being born into freedom in New York, a northern state, a 'Free State', he is at first unaccustomed to the rules of the brutal oppression in the 'South'. 

Gradually, he gives his saneness and humility away, but never truly and completely loses hope, of one day that he will recover his 'Freedom'.  

This was a heart-touching, difficult movie to watch, the difficulty is not that it is a bad movie, the brutality of the 'Truth' of it is, difficult yo watch. 

This movie will win the 'Best Picture' in the up-coming Oscars, believe me. 

Thank you for reading / visiting.
