Hollande Calls for EU to Reduce Its Role

Hollande Addresses Nation on EU Failure 5-26-2014
French President Francois Hollande at last got the message. The people do not want more social justice, they want freedom. Hollande called on Monday addressing the French people on TV stating that the European Union must reduce its role and that it had become “remote and incomprehensible”. He at last got the message saying that “[t]his cannot continue. Europe has to be simple, clear, to be effective where it is needed and to withdraw from where it is not necessary.”
The people of Europe never agreed to the Federalization of Europe. The politicians thought they were clever and would sneak this agenda in little by little. I have stated that they came to me at the start of design. I told them flat outright the euro would fail unless there was the nationalization of all member debts. They did not think they could get the support for that at the time and pushed forward creating a federal bureaucracy and a single currency. The design was a disaster and warned them at that time the euro would fail. Without a consolidation of the member debts, the euro could NEVER compete against the dollar nor become the reserve currency lacing a deep market to park money. This is the same brain-dead reasoning that people claim the dollar will collapse because Russia and China are striking a deal to price product outside the dollar. Sorry, but the yuan is less than 10% of trade flows and the euro is below even China.

Ukraine Elects Petro Poroshenko with 55% of What & Why

Poroshenko Petro Oleksiyovych
Petro Oleksiyovych Poroshenko (born 1965) is a Ukrainian billionaire businessman  known as the ‘Chocolate King’, He is now the President-Elect of Ukraine. He was elected as President of Ukraine on 25 May 2014 with over 55% of the vote, thus winning in the first round without the need for a run-off. However, our direct sources in the East state plainly they were unable to vote as the polling stations were destroyed by the pro-Russian terrorists/tourists. Those who would have voted in the East would have voted for Poroshenko because the general feeling was they needed a President who would have a majority votes with no run-offs to prevent civil war.
Poroshenko is also a seasoned politician. He has served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs from 2009 to 2010, and as the Minister of Trade and Economic Development in 2012. From 2007 until 2012, he headed the Council of Ukraine’s National Bank. He is pro-West for economic freedom.
Poro­shenko was handed a commanding victory in the presidential election Sunday, giving him a chance to resolve a conflict that has created the greatest tensions between the West and Russia since the Cold War. The fact that he is a billionaire who has created businesses rather than inherited them or filled his pockets like Viktor Yanukovych, is good for he will not rob the treasury and there is no chance of bribing him for petty cash. Yanukovych was not poor, but he was not a business man in reality.
Ukraine’s east remains caught in a torrent of violence that increasingly looks like a low-grade civil war. This is a major challenge that will test a longtime politician who has promised to navigate between Russia and the West. The fighting continues as the separatist rebellion in the Donets Basin expands.
Poro­shenko said: “The first steps of our entire team at the beginning of the presidency will concentrate on ending the war, ending the chaos, ending the disorder and bringing peace to Ukrainian soil, to a united, single Ukraine,” at a victory rally Sunday. “Our decisive actions will bring this result fairly quickly.”
He has also said he wants to lead Ukraine to closer ties with the European Union. Nevertheless, the violence that prevented many citizens in eastern Ukraine from voting, demonstrates the old anti-democratic attitude there. It is their way or no way – sheer dictatorship. Separatists in the region had vowed to disrupt the vote, and they largely succeeded in shutting that down knowing they would lose. If the would would have been for leaving Ukraine, then they would have made sure the people voted. But that was not the case. If you can’t get your way – resort to violence.
Putin said a day before Ukraine voted that Russia would “cooperate with the authorities that will come to power as a result of the election,” but he added that he continued to consider Yanukovich the legitimate president of the country. So just how much reality to this election will be recognized by Russia remains to be seen after November.

July 1st – Death of the Dollar or Consumer Fraud?

Dollar-Note
QUESTION: All over the web there are these doom and gloom that the dollar will collapse because of Obama’s new law July 1st. This seems like more fraud to sell gold that has become the greatest hedge against making money from my perspective. Any comments? Here is a direct quote:
“On this date, U.S. House of Representatives Bill “H.R. 2847″ goes into effect. It will usher in the true collapse of the U.S. dollar, and will make millions of Americans poorer, overnight. You now have just several weeks to prepare…”
Thanks so much
TF

ANSWER: Yes. Complete nonsense. This is FACTA and Americans have been kicked out of everywhere for the past few years. Nothing will happen July 1st. Everyone knew what was coming and moved well in advance. How could the dollar collapse when the law is causing Americans to return to the dollar? What is collapsing is the world economy – not the dollar. This is all a sales pitch to sell gold. This scenario is getting very tiring and quite frankly it would be consumer fraud in any other context.

Bildebergs Losing Control?

Bilderberg__Group
QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; There are people who claim you refuse to see the obvious that there is a group called the Bildebergs that they insist even Hillary Clinton admitted they do nothing without consulting them. It just seems absurd that these people point to such all powerful groups who control the world in unison yet they cannot agree in Congress. Are they blind to human nature? My field is psychology. What they suggest is impossible for no such group would ever have a perpetual consensus. Congress, U.N., and the EU parliament illustrate this fact of life. Do you think human nature could possibly be different for such groups? Seems impossible for me.
QUESTION: The very law firm O’Melveny & Myers that destroyed your company and lied that you were managing money when you were buying portfolios attended the Bildeberg meeting in 2006. Was there no connection?
QUESTION: Does the European elections show the agenda of the Bildebergs is collapsing? Do you really think a one-world government could ever exist?
Bilderberg-scum
ANSWER: This idea of a one-world government has zero chance of ever unfolding. Human nature will never allow a single one-party government worldwide. To accomplish even such an attempt, it would ONLY happen after World War III emerging then from the ashes like Bretton Woods and the original purpose of the Bildeberg meetings. Honestly, it certainly seems that someone has sold an idea ahead of its time and that distracts people and the press from investigating the real threat – the government agenda to eliminate democracy and the prevailing political corruption.
Taxes-Lingar
It is government on the ropes. The Sovereign Debt Crisis is closing in. Nobody can stop this outcome. They are hunting money because they are dead broke and the stress is showing everywhere. Just wait for the pension crisis and we will see the unions acting like the Roman army sacking cities to pay their pensions.
Nevertheless, the agenda of the conspiracy-buffs to blame the Bildebergs to protect the politicians and the real evil in society is starting to lose ground. The conspiracy-buffs seem to be paid to put out this stuff tying strings of statements together with no hard evidence to pretend someone other than government is in charge. Well, the European elections have shown that agenda is not working. As long as they can blame the Bildebergs, that allows politicians to run and claim their will protect society. It is a great scam. I have been behind the curtain and NEVER have I ever seen such nonsense. I tried to negotiate a deal for Hong Kong with the Australian government to buy territory. Australia rejected every effort I made because they feared those in Hong Kong were not “Labour People” and would vote against the ruling party at that time. It was all about retaining power – not what I could put on the table for Australia, That meeting was face to face with Paul Keating. There were no calls to the Bildebergs.
Just because these people meet does not mean that they are in control. It is indeed impossible to get any such group to agree on anything. The entire original design was to foster better communications under the assumption that had there been such a connection there may have not been war. That is a pipe-dream. Yes, there was the belief that creating a single currency (federalization of Europe) would prevent war. I have stated countless times I was consulted on this at the birth of the federalization of Europe. I was friends with Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and we had discussions on this subject and she disagreed with this agenda as did I.
BilderbergMeetinUS
This idea of joining the euro to prevent war was popular in the UK among the elite – yes even the Conservatives. This is why these Bildeberg meetings were secret. The idea was they would promote world peace through a single world order. However, this was an idea – not a unified one at that, and there was NEVER any 100% agreement or the power to force that agenda worldwide. Thatcher stood against it.
Europe has NOT panned out as the Bildeberg ideas had initially dreamed. That is a simple fact. The European Commission set itself up as a dictatorship BECAUSE it was moving on this agenda to Federalize Europe secretly. That is why they would not absorb the debt of member states. A single national debt would APPEAR like the Federalization of Europe that the KNEW the people would reject as they are doing right now. But the politicians thought they knew better and embarked on their own secret agenda and in the process they have become dictators. It has been in their own self-interest to retain the euro or Brussels will be shut down. Hence, the agenda to eliminate democracy.
Just because there are these Bildeberg meetings does NOT suggest there is a 100% agreement or that the White House has to consult with them before doing something. Anyone who believe that nonsense is an idiot. The EU agenda is now all about retaining the federalization of Europe and its political jobs. It is always Adam Smith’s Invisible Hand – there are NO exceptions. People who have power in Washington will NEVER lay that at the feet of some international group and obey any more than Putin would. Come on! That goes against human nature. Those who put out such nonsense are more likely paid or are real conspiracy nuts who see the world plotting against them and live their life in fear.
DAILY MIRROR
The UN gets together and does not agree. The European Commission created a dictatorship that was unelected and legally did not have to listen to elected officials because such groups will never agree. Do you really think the EU Commission would lay down its power to some international group? Absurd. What they will do now with the European elections clearly against their agenda that has been in place from the start will be interesting to see. This is why I have been saying we must crash and burn and then there will be a choice ONLY at that time – do we swing toward authoritarian-dictatorship as the European Commission or toward real democracy eliminating career politicians?
Bildeberg-2006
Yes, O’Melveny & Myers was on the list of attendees in the 2006 meeting. Does that mean the Bildeberg group took down Princeton Economics? No. They plastered my picture in the press at the start with Margaret Thatcher. I was very angry at that for she had nothing to do with Japan. I was told that this was a warning to politicians that if anyone tried to help me they would be exposed. This was a dirty deal and the partners at O’Melveny & Myers involved in the case lied outright. They would not even answer the complaints of the CFTC because they could not come up with anything other than they were false. To violate the CFTC you must have solicited an account in futures. The accounts were proprietary and we either bought portfolios or did currency deals on the carry trade at fixed rates of interest. There was NEVER a futures trading account in which the Japanese shared in any profits. So the CFTC complaint was total lies. O’Melveny & Myers covered that up.
The Bildebergs began in 1954 and they were instrumental in moving Europe toward the Treaty of Rome in 1957. The Treaty of Rome, officially the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community (TEEC), was an international agreement that led to the founding of the European Economic Community (EEC) on January 1, 1958. (1958.002) It was signed on March 25, 1957 (1957.23) by Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and West Germany. The word Economic was deleted from the treaty’s name by the Maastricht Treaty  December 9-10, 1991, which began November 1, 1993 (1993.83), for then and there they were revealing the EU of today – a political union with the federalization of Europe. The Treaty of Rome was repackaged as the Treaty on the functioning of the European Union on the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon in 2009.
Euro-1108-m
If we take that starting date as the signing of the Treaty of Rome, we end up with 2008.83 (November 1, 2008), that is actually the lowest monthly closing in the first break of the Euro coming just 4 months from the record high. It appears all downhill from here on out for the EU Commission. That does not mean they will not fight back.
Bilderberg-Press
My point is this. There will NEVER be a 100% agreement in such a group. That goes against human nature. The EU Commission is all about retaining power. They created Brussels and now the euro must be defended for if that goes, there goes the federalization of Europe. These elections have demonstrated the people do not want a federalized Europe. The Bildeberg idea that this would promote peace was wrong. I can tell you a number of people now see that this is going nowhere and it in fact will have the exact opposite effect. I do not care what Hillary Clinton is claimed to have said. She has wanted to be the first woman President since birth. Do you really think she would be subordinate to an international undefined group? Get real.
bilderberg-meeting.si
You may get together to discuss, but that does not translate into power. The European experiment has failed. It is a mystery to me what people insist there has to be some giant collective mind pulling the strings behind everything. They have ZERO evidence of such power – just stringing together statements and claiming this is proof does not cut it. Our problems are REAL and it is governments with the tanks – not the Bildebergs. We are is a lot of trouble and there is nobody in charge which makes this much worse. It is what it is. We are going to hell in a hand-basket as they say. There will be war before their could ever be a new world order. The European elections demonstrate that.
1844 Phila Nativism Riot Againt Irish
During the 1800s after the Panic of 1837 and Andrew Jackson’s war on the Bank of the United States that set in motion the collapse of the state banking system, there were identical riots against immigrants from Europe in the USA. It is always a turn toward nationalism when unemployment rises. People naturally blame immigrants for taking their jobs. History repeats today in the European Elections because the emotional drivers of people never change. There was blood on the streets in American in 1844.

France Has Largest Swing in All of Europe Against the EU Commission and its Socialist Agenda

lepen_2922026b
Marine Le Pen and France’s National Front political party is poised to take the biggest swing toward anti-Europe ahead of even Britain. Le Pen declared victory in European Union elections as voters backed populist, far-Right and Left-wing parties in a backlash against immigration and the euro’s economic policies. The European elections for 2014 show that EU citizens voted against immigrants, austerity and the establishment. So much for those that claim the Bildebergs control the world.
This is a truly stunning defeat for the European political establishment. Le Pen has defeated Francois Hollande’s Socialists by 25% to about a 15% vote. The victory means that Miss Le Pen’s National Front political party will increase its number of MEPs from three to 24 in an “earthquake” for French and Eurozone politics. Le Pen told the Press:
“Our people demand one type of politics: politics by the French, for the French, with the French. They don’t want to be led anymore from outside, to submit to laws.”
The elections have indeed been a huge rejection of the EU policies. What is happening in France prefigures what will happen in all European countries. France is the second largest country in the Eurozone. This will put tremendous pressure on the European Commission. That is the dangerous group to watch.
Evil Spy
The EU Commission took out the heads of Greece and Italy who wanted to leave the Eurozone. What will they do now? If there was ever a Doctor Evil, it has been the European Commission
