Once upon a time there was a king who ruled a vast kingdom. He had a wizard for his assistant. The king was loved by all of his subjects, primarily because he had the ability to make each individual feel like they were the most special person in the kingdom. The king would welcome a private audience with a subject that wanted to speak with him at any time of the day or night.

The wizard soon became jealous of the king. He did not like that the people loved and respected him. Therefore, the wizard, who was a trusted servant of the king, began to slowly put small amounts of poison in the king’s food. The king became ill and eventually was bedridden and unable to listen to the personal stories of his subjects.

During this time, the wizard appointed three emissaries to serve him. He had the emissaries divide the people of the kingdom up into three separate groups.   Now the job of these three emissaries was to set up appointments for the subjects to gain a private audience with the king. But, of course, since the king was sick, he could not really see anyone. Not one subject from any of the three groups was ever really allowed to see the king.

But after awhile, a strange thing happened: People in one group began telling subjects from another group that they had spent time with the king! This made each group jealous and angry towards the other groups. When the subjects of one group complained to their emissary about this, each emissary (secretly under orders from the wizard) said that members from other groups had convinced the king that their particular group had been saying bad things about him. Because of this, the group in question had fallen into his disfavor. Therefore, the king was limiting his time that he was spending with that particular group.

Some of the subjects went so far as to change groups, but of course this didn’t work either because, in reality, no one had been allowed to see the king since his illness.

Because the wizard had tricked each group into being played against the other, animosity continued to build up between the three groups. Eventually, they became so angry that they went to war with one another. Sometimes two of the groups would band together to fight against the third group, but secretly all of these groups were at enmity with each other.

The evil wizard enjoyed watching the subjects destroy themselves, as he looked upon them with contempt and saw them as nothing more than tools to increase his power.

There are two different endings to this story.

Here is the first ending: The king eventually succumbed to his poisoning. The evil wizard took over the kingdom and turned all of the subjects into slaves. He used the animosity that he had created between the three groups to dupe them into killing each other off. Those who were left lived a life of drudgery and hopelessness.

Here is the second ending: The people admitted to themselves and to each other that none of them had seen the king for a very long while. They threw the charlatans out of the kingdom who had claimed that they had. And then they kicked in the doors of the castle, walked right past the wizard and his emissaries and met directly with the king himself.

The king, upon seeing the resolve of his subjects in gaining an audience with him, was moved to tears.

For his treachery, the wizard and his emissaries were sent to the gallows. Through their love of the king and his returning to a proper diet, the king’s good health was once again restored.

In the end, the people came together as one throughout the vast kingdom. They now have access to the king at all hours of the day and night. They are no longer divided by the three groups and help each other to find the way to the king, knowing that when each subject gets closer to him, it actually enhances the ability of another subject to do the same.

There is once again peace in the kingdom.

So which ending will we have?   That’s up to us.

On the heels of this week's mainstream US media interview with Edward Snowden, it appears the general public is growing increasingly aware of the US surveillance leviathan's reach. In the following (part 2 of a 2-part series, part 1 here), PBS' FrontLine reveals the dramatic inside story of how the U.S. government came to monitor and collect the communications of millions of people around the world – and the lengths they went to trying to hide the massive surveillance program from the public. From 9/11 to Edward Snowden and on to NSA reform – what must be done… a must-watch for all US citizens (if they can spare some time away from Americas Got Talent or Instagram).

It’s been surreal watching the news develop the past few months, watching the crass bravado of the US military arm reaching around the globe, not just in their ongoing savage wars and in undermining Syria and the Ukraine, but now including advances on Africa and Venezuela.

And now threatening China? Insane doesn’t fully describe it.

Just look at the implications of this bellicose statement by the US Defense Secretary to a top Chinese official:

U.S. and China square off at Asia security forum

The United States and China squared off at an Asian security forum on Saturday, with the U.S. defense secretary accusing Beijing of destabilizing the region and a top Chinese general retorting that his comments were “threat and intimidation”.

Using unusually strong language, U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel took aim at Beijing’s handling of territorial disputes with its Asian neighbors.

“In recent months, China has undertaken destabilizing, unilateral actions asserting its claims in the South China Sea,” Hagel said.

He warned Beijing that the United States was committed to its geopolitical rebalance to the Asia-Pacific region and “will not look the other way when fundamental principles of the international order are being challenged“. [emphasis mine] source

“International Order”?

Says whom? Oh, the new world order we keep hearing about, I get it. “All we need is the right major crisis”, so apparently you guys are pushing every damn button you can find to try to bring something on.

And talk about about the pot calling the kettle black! If this kind of outright intimidation with China doesn’t drive more nations into the BRICS fold I’ll be shocked…which may of course be what they want to crystallize the so-called opposition. While we know the grand chessboard is a manipulated one, the very idea of such outright warmongering on the world’s center stage is almost beyond belief. It’s almost as if they’re behind schedule and pushing in any direction they can almost haphazardly to prove they can obtain world domination at will..and/or get “the WW3 trigger” pulled. (Note the picture and quote at top..)

Despotic Desperation Is Dangerous

We’ve been tracking the rise of this totalitarian mindset and warmongering for some time, including their Machiavellian police state paradigm. But to go toe to toe against the Chinese while pushing the Russians to the limit while warring on several other sovereign nation states is clinically and geopolitically insane.

The madmen are at the helm, so batten down the hatches while still sounding the alarm. They’re pushing for a major conflagration and hoping to justify it in the minds of the brainwashed masses for as long as possible. This ruse of blaming others of what they themselves are guilty of is going to have the veil lifted off of it for many more soon, but it may be immediately preceding insane actions on the part of these globalist manipulators.

Those in the rest of the world can see it for what it is. Have no illusions.

Don’t believe the media. In fact, turn it off. Follow the news from alternative sources. Mainstream propaganda is meant to hypnotically assuage the masses and justify the cost; in money, materials and human life, which the Machine depends on. For which too many are willing to sacrifice in the Orwellian name of “freedom” and “defense”, surreal as that may sound.

Be on the alert. They’re pushing hard…and much too fast.

Much love, Zen

Submitted by David Stockman via Contra Corner blog,

You can smell this one coming a mile away:

The European Central Bank and Bank of England on Friday outlined options to reinvigorate the market for bundled bank loans, which was “tarnished” by the global financial crisis, saying a better-functioning market for asset-backed securities can help boost lending to the private sector, particularly small businesses.

Yes, the ECB is now energetically trying to revive the a market for asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP) – the very kind of “toxic-waste” that allegedly nearly took down the financial system during the panic of September 2008. The ECB would have you believe that getting more “liquidity” into the bank loan market for such things as credit card advances, auto paper and small business loans will somehow cause Europe’s debt-besotted businesses and consumers to start borrowing again  thereby reversing the mild (and constructive) trend toward debt reduction that has caused euro area bank loans to decline by about 3% over the past year.

What they are really up to, however, is money-printing and snookering the German sound money camp. That is, the ECB is getting set to launch QE in financial drag by purchasing or discounting ABCP while loudly proclaiming that it’s not “monetizing” any stinking sovereign debt!

And that gets to the heart of monetary central planning. It doesn’t matter what the central bank buys with the digital credits it transfers to sellers. Purchasing government debt, Fannie Mae securities, IBM bonds or corporate equities, as has been done by the BOJ and Bank Of Israel under the new Fed Vice-Chairman, has a common effect.  That is, it raises the price of the purchased “assets” relative to what would obtain in the unfettered market, and injects fiat liquidity into the financial system in a manner that promotes speculation and excessive risk-taking.

Thus, if some clever Wall Street operators could figure out how to bundle sea shells and securitize them, central bank purchase of the resulting ABCP would be no different than purchase of treasury notes or Fannie Mae paper.

Unfortunately, the German keepers of the flame of financial orthodoxy have been too narrow in their focus on central bank “monetization” of government debt. To be sure, they are correct in maintaining that central bank purchase of sovereign debt inexorably promotes fiscal profligacy among the politicians. The fact that the debt of nearly ever DM government has soared to 100% of GDP and beyond since the era of monetary central planning got going in the 1990s is undeniable evidence.

But the true economic sin lies in the fiat credit generated by central banks monetization, not the particular type of “asset” purchase by which it is accomplished. Stated differently, debt which is priced at honest market rates and is funded by new savings from businesses or households is economically healthy; it involves a deferral of current consumption in order to finance a longer-lived project or productive asset that promises a return in excess of the funding cost.

By contrast, central bank balance sheet expansion – that is, monetization of government debt or asset-backed sea shells – results in borrowing without saving; investment without honest hurdle rates; and the re-rating of existing asset prices based on carry trades, not an elevation of expected economic returns.

So in clearing the way to “monetization” of ABCP, the ECB is simply heading down the path of Bernanke/Yellen style quantitative easing though a transparent gimmick that may or may not bamboozle the Germans. But it most certainly will succeed in snookering the financial press as the post below from the ever gullible Brian Blackstone of the WSJ clearly conveys.

But here’s the thing. The ABCP market is not a place where hard-pressed business borrowers or consumer’s can find a new source of credit outside the banking system. Instead, it is a financial engineering arena in which banks will have a chance to mint phony overnight profits through an accounting expedient known as “gain-on-sale”.

What that means is that when credit card receivables or small business loans are “bundled” by their commercial bank issuers and sold into an off-balance conduit which issues ABCP against these “assets”, the life-time profits of these loans can be booked instantly. Indeed, modern technology allows the credit card swipe to be booked as a profit nearly the same nanosecond as it happens, and accounting convention allows the profits from a 7-year car loan issued at 110% of the vehicle’s value to be recorded virtually at the time it rolls off the dealer lot.

The smoking gun with respect to the current ECB ploy is contained in the graph below for the US ABCP market. As is evident, it went parabolic in the run-up to the 2008 meltdown, but has virtually vanished since. In fact, current outstandings of about $250 billion are 80% below the July 2007 peak.

But there is nary a word in the financial press about credit card or auto loans being too “tight” in the US for a simple reason. Banks are more than happy to issue new loans to credit-worthy business and consumer borrowers and hold them to maturity on their own balance sheets. After all, with $2.7 trillion of “excess reserves” parked at the New York Fed, “funding” is not an issue. Moreover, the whole point of the Fed’s interest rate repression regime is to create an artificially large profit spread on bank loan books in order to revive dodgy balance sheets.

 

So we get back to the same old ritual of Keynesian central banking: namely, if you only have a hammer, everything looks like a nail. In truth, the only tool that central banks actually have is monetization of existing assets and sea shells. Accordingly, they invent excuses for more of the same, and devise clever stratagems to disguise what they are doing.

In the present instant, the ECB and its acolytes have been gumming for several months now about “low-flation”. But that is ridiculous—if the claim is viewed in any context except the run-rate of the last few hours or quarters.

Yes, during the last 12 months, euro area inflation has come in near what used to be viewed as salutary price stability at 0.8%. But in the three years before that it averaged about 1.9% or about as close to the ECB’s so-called inflation target as your can get. Indeed, moderate inflation is endemic in the European economies. It has averaged 1.8% since the eve of the 2008 crisis and essentially the same since 1997.

 

In short, Europe has more than enough inflation and doesn’t need a revived ABCP market to generate loans for the un-creditworthy. Today’s announcement is just part of Draghi’s desperate attempt to deliver QE next week in a manner which will not elicit a loud “nein!” from his German overseers.

With tear-gas flying in the streets of Turkey, Ukraine’s civil-war raging in the south and east, US drones based in Japan to oversee the South China Sea, and Europe’s extremist parties gaining significant traction, today we get one more piece of considerably worrisome geopolitical news that global stock markets must ignore. The Sunday Times reports that Israel is to deploy three submarines equipped with nuclear cruise missiles in the Persian Gulf that are meant to act as a deterrent, gather intelligence and potentially to land Mossad agents. Iran is not happy, warning that “anyone who wishes to do an evil act in the Persian Gulf will receive a forceful response from us.”

 

 

As Haaretz reports,

Israel is to deploy three submarines equipped with nuclear cruise missiles in the Persian Gulf, the Sunday Times reported on Sunday.

 

According to the Times report, one submarine had been sent over Israeli fears that ballistic missiles developed by Iran, and in the possession of Syria and Hezbollah, could be used to hit strategic sites within Israel, such as air bases and missile launchers.

 

Dolphin, Tekuma, and Leviathan, all German-made Dolphin class submarines of the 7th navy Flotilla, have been reported as frequenting the Gulf in the past, however, according to the Sunday Times report, this new deployment is meant to ensure a permanent naval presence near the Iranian coastline.

 

A flotilla officer told the Times that the deployed submarines were meant to act as a deterrent, gather intelligence and potentially to land Mossad agents.

 

“We’re a solid base for collecting sensitive information, as we can stay for a long time in one place,” the officer said.

 

The flotilla’s commander, identified only as “Colonel O,” was quoted by the Times as saying that the submarine force was “an underwater assault force. We’re operating deep and far, very far, from our borders.”

 

The submarines could be used if Iran continues its program to produce a nuclear bomb. “The 1,500km range of the submarines’ cruise missiles can reach any target in Iran,” a navy officer told the Times.

ran’s response to this action was not too diplomatic…

Apparently responding to the reported Israeli activity, an Iranian admiral told the Times: “Anyone who wishes to do an evil act in the Persian Gulf will receive a forceful response from us.”

 

Last July, defense sources reported that an Israeli submarine had sailed the Suez Canal to the Red Sea last month, describing the unusual maneuver as a show of strategic reach in the face of Iran.

We are sure this is nothing to worry about and that investors worldwide should BTFATH with both hands and feet…

Introduction to Exit From The Matrix

by Jon Rappoport

May 31, 2014

http://ift.tt/KQeBZA

My mega-collection, titled EXIT FROM THE MATRIX, is at the core of everything I’ve been doing, pursuing, researching, and writing about for the past several decades.

It’s ultimately why I’ve been sitting down at my computer and writing every day since I started nomorefakenews in 2001.

For the past 12 years, among all my other articles, I’ve been writing about individual creative power.

The power to create new reality, new future, on a personal level, on any level, wherever innovation can change a status quo which is unsatisfying and limiting.

I’m referring to people’s lives, their work, careers, relationships, social and political conditions…from the most private concerns all the way to the future of the planet.

EXIT FROM THE MATRIX is the realization of a goal I’ve been pursuing for a very long time.

It’s intensely practical. It contains more than 50 new exercises and techniques aimed at expanding the power, range, and scope of creative power—along with very simple instructions on how to use these exercises.

Imagination is the buried key that unlocks the door that exits from the Matrix.

This collection also contains a presentation of the vital philosophy that underpins the limitless power of the individual. This is more than theory. It’s a guide to exiting from the Matrix.

From what is in EXIT FROM THE MATRIX, from the huge amount of material, I think you’ll see I’ve made no short cuts. In fact, I’ve done everything possible to go the extra mile.

So let’s get to the details. Here is the list of my brand new audio presentations:

What has been called The Matrix is a series of layers. These layers compose what we call Reality. Reality is not merely the consensus people accept in their daily lives. It is also a personal and individual conception of limits. It is a perception that these limits are somehow built into existence. But this is not true.

What I’ve done here is remove the lid on those perceived limits. This isn’t an intellectual undertaking. It’s a way to open up space and step on to a new road.

That road travels to more and more creative power, joy, and fulfillment.

During that great adventure, the individual experiences what has been labeled “paranormal” and “synchronistic” and “magical.” These words really don’t do us justice. They only hint at what we are and what we can do.

I put this collection together because it expresses, explains, and shows, in detail, how the individual can rediscover and reclaim his/her true power.

That process, that engagement, that life is beyond solving problems. Our problems, at the core, exist only because we have “misplaced an infinity.”

Everything I’ve done and written in the past 20 years has been aimed, one way or another, at bringing back that infinity, seeing through the layers of disguise, and moving ahead on the sunlit road we all desire.

We have, each one of us, an infinite life, lived in a world that is convinced it is bounded.

It’s time we dissolved that false contradiction.
