Neil Keenan, the Chinese, the "All of It" -- by Judge Anna

by Judge Anna


What I know for sure is that the Nationalist Chinese government placed a LARGE sum of gold on deposit with the New York Fed in 1928 just before the fall of the Nationalist Chinese government.  The Fed used that gold for years and were supposed to pay interest on the use of it, and didn't.  They didn't like the Communist Chinese government, so they just wrote off their own fiduciary responsibility to the Chinese people --- the lawful heirs of the gold horde---and proposed to keep it for themselves. 


Neil Keenan brought suit against the New York Fed in 2011 to correct this.  But they had already bankrupted the old Federal Reserve System in 2009, so they pleaded bankruptcy protection.  Technically, the gold had been held by member banks in the old bankrupt system, so it was argued that all those assets were part of the holdings of the bankrupt banks and blah, blah, blah.  It was only after the discovery of prior known bankruptcy fraud and willful disregard of fiduciary management on the part of the Federal Reserve that the perps were eventually cornered and forced to cough up. 


Now, I have no reason to like the Communist Chinese government, but like it or not, they are representing the Chinese People and the gold belongs to the Chinese People.  It does not belong to us.  It does not belong to the New York Fed.  It needed to go back to China and the interest on it needed to be paid. 


Neil Keenan fought hard for that. Any right thinking human being on this planet who would want their property returned in a similar situation has to agree with him and with the Chinese government. It was a lawful debt, fair and square, no question about it. 


Unfortunately, when the bankers got to thinking about their options, they decided to turn their lemons into lemonade.  Having been forced to pay the Chinese off they said----what the Hell?  If you can't beat them, join them..... and they moved their focus of operations to China. 


And suddenly, the Chinese Elders appeared. 


I don't know why the Powers That Be treat us like little children and invent fairytales for us, but they do.  


The Fed banks stole us and our parents and grandparents and virtually everyone else on the planet blind for over a hundred years-----not just the Chinese.  


The banks are like Pawn Shop owners caught with stolen loot they need to offload. So the Chinese who had finally gotten their own back, took delivery "in behalf" of everyone else, and "unofficially" have been trying to return the world's wealth to the actual heirs.  Of course, those participating in this whole hand-washing effort become accomplices-after-the-fact, but so long as they carry through on a fair distribution of the wealth and pay back the debts everyone else is owed, I think we can thank Neil Keenan and those who have fought the fight to this point. 


Somebody had to do the job.  It might as well be Neil Keenan and his group and the Chinese.  The one real beef I have so far is that a clean breast of it is not being made.  People are once again being told fairy tales and given excuses, which leaves everyone building on lies and sand.  Better that the Whole Truth come out and that the banker's games come to a permanent end. 


The danger now is that certain elements in the Chinese Government might have short memories, especially under the goading of the Federal Reserve bank criminals who are obviously trying to convince them that they can get away with doing unto us and everyone else what the Fed so recently tried to do to them---- ignore their fiduciary responsibility to return other people's property,  claim that all the assets "recovered" rightfully belong to the Chinese----when they don't all belong to the Chinese any more than the Chinese gold belonged to the Federal Reserve Banks.   


This is why there is a danger of WWIII and that is what the "Federal Reserve" Banks are trying to foment anyway, because they make out like bandits whenever there is a war. 


Now, again, if the Chinese officials are thinking things through, they know that the records are the records and that the whole world will consider them criminals if they don't return the property of the other nations, but now the political shoe is on the other foot---- they, quite rightly, don't want to give our money back to the criminals in DC who are responsible for stealing it from us in the first place.  And just as the Federal Reserve banks tried to justify keeping the Chinese gold and not paying the interest to the current Chinese government on the basis that that government is Communist, the Chinese government is loathe to give back American gold to the rats in DC, because they know DC is a criminal empire and the gold will not go to the American People and will instead go to evil purposes. 


Damned if you do, and damned if you don't. 


This has resulted in many desperate efforts to give the gold to any responsible American organization willing to represent the actual American People in this matter. I have had at least two dozen organizations approach me wanting to give me gold for the American People--- but here is the problem as cited above, it's a damned if you do and damned if you don't proposition. This is profoundly dirty money---money derived from embezzlement, identity theft, credit theft, enslavement, bankruptcy fraud, unlawful conversion of titles and asset ownerships----filthy money.  The bankers and politicians want to pretend that "it never happened"--- just empty the vaults of the loot, give it back to the owners--- and no admissions are made, nobody held accountable. Total black out and immunity.  Everyone has a big party with the "pennies from Heaven" or the "Chinese Elders" or "SWISSINDO" or  Neil Keenan  or whoever takes on the responsibility of distribution.  


People all over the world have accused me of being a Girl Scout and a prissy little prig who doesn't want to get her hands dirty, a moralist who denies the practical good of distributing the wealth back to the actual people who own it, or an even nastier kind of moralist who wants to see heads roll and bankers and politicians hung by the neck until dead, etc., etc., etc., ----- but the plain fact of it is that I don't believe that such a snow job can succeed in the modern world and I don't think that the world should be rebuilt on lies and fairytales. I think we all have to take a share of the blame, hang our heads, and admit what has happened here. 


America has been one of the most enslaved nations on the planet.  That's the fact.  Most of the world has been enslaved for generations by corrupt mostly western governments and banks and lawyers used as the attack dogs of banks.  That's what has happened here.  All this new-found wealth is built on the blood of soldiers who have been lied to, on the blood of innocent women and helpless children, on gold teeth extracted from Jewish corpses, on slave labor in India and Bangladesh, on farmland laid waste, on water defiled, on innocent animals being abused, on every kind of evil you can think of.  We have to admit that. We have to stare it in the eye, and if only for a brief time, we have to own the facts and remember how we got here.  


It is not just a petty sense of morality that requires it.  It's the danger of going forward into a New World without such a reckoning.  I am not going to ally myself with the fraud or try to protect it, and I certainly won't try to prolong any continuance of it.   I am not going to stretch out my hand without a clear recognition that what I receive is only what is rightfully mine, a stolen inheritance being returned. 


The men who knowingly created this monstrous "system" are long dead and gone.  All that remains are their heirs and second and third generation cappos who "did what we are told" and for the most part they never stopped to question anything.  As one judge in Alaska told me, "that's the way we do things....that's the way we've always done things...."  It didn't occur to him that what he was doing was wrong, much less that it was criminal.  The fraud had been set in motion so long ago that nobody even recognized it as crime.  It's time that we did--- not out of vengeance or any need to cause further harm, but simply to recognize the truth and avoid ever going through such a debacle again. 


Men are by nature creatures of habit.  We become easily indoctrinated.  We function on assumptions.  We label things and try to shove reality into boxes. We even try to shove each other into neat little thought containers--- "black" and "white", "Jew" and "Muslim", and so on.  Knowing this about ourselves gives us an opportunity to rise above our current condition and these known weaknesses. We can learn to entertain a healthy degree of skepticism.  We can learn to laugh at ourselves.  We can learn to forgive. 


The one thing we can't do is hide our heads in the sand and leave our butts in the air anymore.  


So how do the Americans get their share without feeding the Beast in Washington?  We establish a National Depository on neutral Native Tribal land and use the Post Offices as distribution and service centers to deliver banking services. We use Money Orders instead of checks. 


We do what people all over this country have done and are doing.  We rebuild the lawful government we are heir to, establishing Jural Assemblies, county by county. We mint our American Silver Dollars and issue certificates based on them, until such time as block chain technology renders the old banking system and its limitations archaic. It shouldn't be long. We organize our states on the land again and call for a Continental Congress. We send our delegations of elected state deputies (fiduciary officers, not "representatives").  We do all the housecleaning and housekeeping that has been neglected for 150 years.  


We explain to the rest of the world that our proper governmental system was usurped by banks and self-interested corporations and that the "United States" is not "America" so please stop using these names in the same breath as if they ever were one-in-the-same.  They are not and haven't been since the foundation of this country---they've just been deliberately confused by venal men engaged in semantic deceit, seeking to defraud other people and other nations. 


The American People are not alone in this condition. More than half the world is in the same boat. If we feel stupid, we've got plenty of company.  


Please understand that Americans were victimized and duped as bad or worse than everyone else. Understand that 98% of the foreign aid we gave in good faith was stolen by criminals who were merely under contract to provide us with governmental services. Over 80% of the money we gave to help the poor in this country never reached its intended destination, either.  Understand that we were lied to and robbed blind.  Understand that we were conscripted into all sorts of "federal programs" against our will and have suffered under armed racketeering that was protected under color of law for many years.  




Instead of being afraid of the "Apocalypse"---- which merely means the drawing back of a curtain or revelation--- be glad.  Like popping a boil or draining a wound, it may hurt a bit, but it is the only way we can heal the past.

Collapse Strategist: “We’re In The Terminal Phase… Economic Pain Like We’ve Never Seen Before”
Original newz story - Click here



At this point, despite major highs in U.S. stock markets and reassurances from no less than President of the United States himself that the economy is sound, one only need to look around to understand that we are on the cusp of what researcher and collapse strategist Michael Snyder of The Economic Collapse Blog calls the “early chapters of a total meltdown.” In his latest interview with Future Money Trends Snyder notes that the fundamental economic problems we face can be seen across the globe. The United States, Europe, Asia, and South America are all crashing and no one will be immune to what comes next.


We’re in the terminal phase of the greatest debt bubble in all of human history… The crisis that happened last time around… it was just a warning signal of what would happen if we didn’t fix our problems… and of course we didn’t fix them.


It’s not sustainable… There’s going to be a permanent, massive adjustment and a loss of faith in the current system… as it unravels and implodes we’re going to see economic pain on a scale that is historic, like we’ve never seen before… when this thing finally blows it’s going to bring the existing system down.
Full Interview via Future Money Trends:

(Watch at Youtube)
While most Americans think that near-record breaking stock markets are a sign of recovery and revival in the U.S. economy, Snyder goes on to warn that what we’ve seen in Greece, Cyprus, and Argentina, and what’s happening right now in Venezuela, is a coming reality to Americans.
That could mean everything from bank holidays wherein governments authorize the seizure of account holders’ deposits, to a full-on collapse scenario like Venezuela where food, toilet paper and basic necessities become totally unavailable.


Michael Snyder explains that the one asset class to protect and preserve wealth in the midst of crisis is precious metals and well known billionaire investors have been rapidly acquiring everything they can their hands on in recent months. And as we’ve seen just this year, when panic is the order of the day capital shifts into gold and silver as a crisis hedge.


But that’s not all you can do to prepare for the next wave, says Snyder, and diversifying your approach to collapse-proofing your life will be critical because we simply don’t know exactly how events will play out over coming months and years:


There’re are different strategies that are required to get through a period of crisis, even if it’s just a recession, but especially if it escalates to a full-blown historic financial crisis. 


For example. if people have money in financial markets they may want to evaluate what their risk is… because if things start crashing are they going to be able to survive if their investments crash to a 40% or 50% decline… can you weather that? Can you survive that?

Eric Hunsader: The Financial System Is "Absolutely, Positively Rigged"


Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/19/2016 

Submitted by Adam Taggart via PeakProsperity.com,
Eric Hunsader, founder of Nanex, has been at the vanguard of warning about the dangers and the rampant fraud that the rise of high-frequency trading (HFT) algorithims have let loose in today's financial markets.
While he usually feels like a lone voice in a world happy to deceive itself, he was shocked to receive a $750,000 whistleblower award from the SEC for his efforts. He's been sadly less shocked to see that since the award was publicly announced, the abuses he reported have only become more extreme and frequent.
Of the situation that led to his award, he says:

The folks at the NYSE were selling their direct feed for north of $30,000 a month versus the SIP which is under a thousand dollars a month. Their customers are not buying it because it has that much more rich data. The thing that makes it worth $29,000 more is that it is faster, but that is illegal. Up until this point they deny that that is the case. And somehow it works. So the exchanges make all their money from their highest paying customers which are the high frequency traders. And the high frequency traders pay the exchanges exorbitant amounts of money to have a slight advantage.
 
That's how the whole system works. It is absolutely, positively rigged. There is no question about it. It is rigged on many different levels in many different ways -- for example, no retail order ever gets to see the light of day of the stock exchange. That's one of the many eye openers. People who aren’t pros in the market don’t realize that it's all a rigged game.

Hunsader also had opportunity at one point to access the audit trail data from the CME futures exchange, data that the central authorities almost never allow outside eyes to see. What he found was clear evidence that a very small number of very large players push prices and volume around at will to vacuum up profits at the expense of everyone else:

I got to see the Fed analysis. This is a fascinating little story. It was the Treasury flash crash October 15^th, 2014 which was every bit as bad as the stock market flash crash except it was in Treasurys. The Federal Reserve wanted to get to the bottom of it. They got people together to analyze data and they had to break them into two teams – one team got to look at the cash market trading data and the other team got to look at the audit trail data from the CME which told who was buying this order. One team wasn’t allowed to see the other data set.
 
If you want to analyze the situation properly you have to look at both sides in order to see what's going on here. You've got to see how the cash and the futures relate. But the teams were specifically not allowed do to this. People on the team that looked at the Treasury data were not allowed to see the cash market data and vice versa. This is data that is extremely hard to get because it is audit trail level. It shows who's behind each trade or order. I got to see some of the stats from the cash side. It is just amazing the percentage of the watched trading going on. Putting in fake orders and the level of spoofing, the level of just bad acting happening.
 
And, once again, it was the top 10 institutions who pulled away the lion’s share of the profits. They totally dominate the market.
 
I've been apoplectic for so long I am just spent. Nothing would surprise me anymore. I really honestly don’t know how this is going to get corrected. I know it can’t continue.

But there's more. Last August, Hunsader published a chart showing that US stock futures are routinely and suspiciously lifted in the wee hours of the night when trading volume is at its lowest. The 2:00-3:00am EST hour in particular demonstrates a remarkably predictable behavior that leaves many suspecting outright market price manipulation:

Every once in a while I look at longer term fundamentals l and, when I did that study, I had to verify it many different times and many different ways because I just didn’t believe it. Basically, between 2 and 3:00am -- you buy at 2:00am and sell at 3:00am -- you would have captured half of the gains and none of the draw down since 2005, which is just unbelievable that it would have that kind of weight. You would expect every hour, over a long period of time, to be equal. It should be randomly equal. But certainly the early morning hours really stand out. And I don’t have an answer.
 
I would have thought after I first published that chart last August the anomaly would have been ameliorated or something would have shifted because now the information is out there and I know a lot of people saw that chart – it was widely talked about. I would have expected an effect. But the only effect seems to be it has accelerated to be more egregious than it was before.
