Why Bother with Government? Just the Facts
QUESTION:
Marty,
I appreciate the efforts you make to keep the average person informed regarding different issues, (economic and others), THAT ARE ALL CONNECTED.
If the heart of the problem is gov’t, which I’d agree, and the vast majority are unwilling to relinquish any power, for what purpose do you make or keep up your relationships with gov’t officials world wide? Is it to better help keep you informed of info/developments, or do you hold out hope that government will reform to avoid calamity. (I do know there are a few good people in gov’t, but not many).
Furthermore, from a cyclical standpoint – as all governments fail and the U.S. looks to have just about run their course, isn’t it inevitable that we must crash and burn. Again, what is your underlying purpose in developing or maintaining those relationships.
Thanks,
T
ANSWER: When I was young and stupid, I believed I could make a difference and tried. I soon came to understand politics and the inner workings of my governments around the globe. I came to see that it was just self-interest and immediate gratification. There were no long-term plans – it was want can I get now. There only time change becomes possible is in the middle of the crash and burn. Nobody can prevent the crash. But it is possible to mitigate how far we crash if there is reason in the middle of chaos.
There are some who go to the Hill and were trying to do things like Ron Paul or in the EU like Nigel Farage. The Tea Party people have refused to play politics as usual and there are great divides within the Republican Party. The Democrats are really a coalition of groups from women and blacks, to unions and Spanish. They act more like Europeans agreeing to work together, but each with a slightly different goal. Republicans have been party politics and this is where they have clashed with the Tea Party because they do not understand even how to form a coalition.
What has developed is government by crisis. You cannot make some proposal and expect it to even get to the floor for a vote. If it is anti-status-quo, you have a higher chance of Obama becoming Pope. The only way to play this game is to be there for when the tree falls, the crisis management goes into full gear and suddenly a proposal will emerge and a vote will be taken in hours or days with nobody really bothering to read anything.
Therefore, I work with those who know the game and are on the side of freedom – not the anti-corporation conspirators who will lead us into communism for they will be used to justify taking more power. I do not know if we can make a difference. What I do know is there are always opposing forces. Whatever I can do to preserve liberty I will do and if that means staying in touch and hoping we can argue when it comes down to a few hours in the middle of a crash and burn, then so be it.
I did not seek to be in such a position. Fate has put me where I am today. If there was some all powerful elitist group that was in control of everything, nobody would have ever bothered seeking me out and wanting to know what our computer was forecasting next. All I can say is I have yet to see some all powerful group that was in control. I can’t tell you how many top institutions around the world want to know what our computer says now.
We are all in the same boat. So sorry with the conspiracy people who just want to believe in some group they cannot identify, I cannot speculate. I have seen plenty of conspiracies to manipulate a market short-term and the public for a vote, but there is nobody who can control everything all the time. Show me the facts and I will listen. Just yell and scream about people you assume exist but offer no proof, and that is just opinion. So Sorry. Not interest in opinions – only facts.

COMMENT FROM FRANCE:
Hi Martin,
The worthless President Francois Hollande doesn’t want to go to Sotchi for the Olympic Games because of the treatment of the Gay Pride there by Putin. Then he fled to Saudi Arabia to sell heavy weapons and make stupid jokes. The Saudis are apparently much more respectable than Putin and treat their gays fairly. The morality of Hollande is so short that the skirt of Blake Lively appears too long…
On the 31th of December he talked on TV for the New Year wishes . A few days later, a poll revealed that 97% of people were not convinced…
He was elected on May 15th, 2012. The Mayas were right after all…
911 Admixture & the Fourth Branch of Government
QUESTION: Martin,
I respect you and your work immensely and I believe I have gone overboard on both my precious metals investment and conspiracies. However, the main thing that made me this way is that I did take an extensive look at what happened on 911 and found it wanting. This made me change my entire outlook. Are you saying that 911 was the result of 19 Muslim fundamentalists acting on instructions from a man in a cave using a satellite phone? Are you saying that 911 was not a conspiracy? Even if you don’t post this I would very much like to hear your opinion regarding this matter.
Thank you,
B
ANSWER: There is an admixture here. There were really terrorists involved. That does not negate the fact that WTC7 and the Pentagon were clearly targets that helped get rid of evidence and stop the investigation into $2 trillion in missing money. It is not an either or deal. What I am saying is I believe they KNEW in advance and used it to extend their power and clean up affairs just as they knew about Pearl Harbor and made up the attack at Tonkin Gulf and let us not forget the Weapons of Mass Destruction they couldn’t find.
All I can say is I do know what happened in MCC. That does not negate the government involvement any more than pretending they didn’t know about Pearl Harbor. The planes that were used could be also controlled from the ground. So I do not believe it was simply terrorist all on their own. I “believe” they used the terrorists as a decoy to achieve other goals. Can I prove that no! This is my OPINION.
What I can state is what happened in MCC. That is NOT speculation, theory, conjecture, or anything else. However, that does NOT say it was purely a terrorist act either. WTC7 fell by itself without anything hitting it and all government employees were evacuated prior to. It appears to be a professional demolition job. As for the “plane” that hit the pentagon (or missile) directly in the room where ALL the evidence was on the missing $2 trillion, is just too coincidental to be believable. I know people who were there and they say no plane debris. That was not the WTC where you could fly into that no problem. This was at ground level. Much more difficult to accomplish.
Those two events raise serious questions about 911. What I am saying is there is more likely than not to be an admixture. The Japanese did bomb Pearl Harbor. It served its purpose to get the US into the war. Americans were very isolationist and were not gun-ho to invade Europe. To get public support, they need some event. The whole involvement of the Fourth Branch of Government is the real conspiracy – not bankers. It is like Venice starting the Crusades. They killed more Christians than Muslims and sacked Constantinople. They used the event to make money. The famous 4 horses in St Mark;s Square stood in Constantinople and were a monument to Constantine where he drove his chariot drawn by the 4 horses.
Iraq was not involved in 911. They used that for Halliburton to make a fortune and then when people began to look – oops they moved to Dubai.
Just for the Record – Fourth Branch of Government
Just for the record I do not offer my OPINION on things without stating it is only my OPINION. The called me the man you knew too much. Before 1999, I was asked my people in the Republican party to meet with people who wanted to run for President under the pretense I was there to advise them about the world economy. I was then asked upon my conclusion what did I think of that person’s mental capacity to grasp the complexity of the world. This was when they use to care if someone was qualified. Then George Bush Jr was on the radar. I was asked to fly to Texas to meet with him but I was told this was “different” because he was really “stupid”. I was shocked that they used such a word. I asked: Why would you make someone president who was stupid? I was told that he had the name. I was then asked if I would work in the White House as the Economic Adviser that they were going to need key people around him. I declined. I advised way too many people around the world and the hearings would have been a nightmare of conflicts of interest plus I was not about to give up what I did for some some ego trip that typically lasted at best 4 years.
Dick Chaney entered the scene and has been characterized as the most powerful and influential Vice President in American history who really called all the shots – not Bush. Cheney is wildly regarded as the most shrewd and knowledgeable politician perhaps to dominate Capitol Hill. He ran the country – not Bush. The press knew that but never reported the truth anymore than they never reported Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe. The was so widely known off the front pages of newspapers that the Taliban knew who was really the President and on February 27, 2007 they tried to kill him on his visit to Afghanistan.
Cheney took a very active policy-making role and had them set up an office near the Congressional House floor for him and his staff. Additionally, to his office in the White House West Wing, Cheney had the normal ceremonial office in the Old Executive Office Building plus an office in the Senate in the Dirksen Senate Office Building and another off the floor of the Senate no less. All of this was because Bush was not really in control.
Cheney was behind the expansion of executive powers far beyond the Constitution. He supported the illegal wiretapping and then orchestrated legislation to justify it after he got caught. It was Cheney behind the torture violating international law. Those who support that should keep in mind that this then justifies the same treatment against Americans capture in war. We either agreed to be civil and not cross that line of torture and chemical weapons and we erase that line because it suits our current interests.
Cheney was a prominent member of the National Energy Policy Development Group (NEPDG) that was commonly known as the Energy task force. This was composed of energy industry representatives, including several Enron executives. Only after the Enron scandal, then the Bush administration was accused of improper political and business ties with Cheney’s old buddies. Yes, Cheney was head of Halliburton between 1995 and 2000. As soon as they were going to be investigated for corruption regarding the Iraq War that Cheney instigated, miraculously they resigned their American status as a company and moved to Dubai. These were not conspiracies to dominate the world – just plain vanilla grab as much as you can on the way out the door.
In July 2003, the Supreme Court ruled that the US Department of Commerce must disclose NEPDG documents, containing references to companies that had made agreements with the previous Iraqi government to extract Iraq’s petroleum. What did Cheney do? Beginning in 2003, Cheney’s staff opted not to file required reports with the National Archives and Records Administration office charged with assuring that the executive branch protects classified information, nor did it allow inspection of its record keeping.
Yes! Cheney actually refused to release the documents, citing his executive privilege to deny congressional information requests. Media outlets such as Time magazine and CBS News questioned whether Cheney had created a “fourth branch of government” that was not subject to any laws! That fourth branch Cheney created is now dominated by the NSA. There was a court filing made in the District Court for the District of Columbia, asking the court to declare that Cheney’s vice-presidential records are covered by the Presidential Records Act of 1978 and cannot be destroyed, taken or withheld from the public without proper review,
On October 18, 2005, The Washington Post reported that the vice president’s office was central to the investigation of the Valerie Plame CIA leak scandal. It was Cheney’s former chief of staff, Lewis “Scooter” Libby, who emerged as one of the figures under investigation. Libby was criminally indicted and resigned his positions as Cheney’s chief of staff and the assistant on national security affairs. The National Journal reported that Libby had stated before a grand jury that his superiors, including Cheney, had authorized him to disclose classified information to the press regarding intelligence on Iraq’s weapons. In the closing arguments of the prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, he made it clear that there was “a cloud over the vice president”, an apparent reference to Cheney’s interview with FBI agents investigating the case, which was made public in 2009.
Cheney lobbied President George W. Bush vigorously and unsuccessfully to grant Libby a full Presidential pardon up to the day of Barack Obama’s inauguration, likening Libby to a“soldier on the battlefield”. Apparently Bush came to the realization that Cheney was out of control and tried to distance himself as much as possible.
Those who need to look at bankers and whatnot, need only look to Washington and what Cheney set in motion, The Fourth Branch of Government blackmails politicians and they are once again playing the role of J. Edgar Hoover. Gee, look at the info we inadvertently uncovered on you. If we could discover this, your enemies might. The conversation then turns to oh thank you so much, and the “favor” is then expected.
The Rothschild family, Bilderberg Group, Goldman Sacks, or J.P. Morgan Chase – all are not conspiring to suppress citizens into economic slavery. As long as these stories circulate and get people so convinced about them, they are not paying attention to the real conspiracy in the Fourth Branch of Government. These are the people with tanks, troops, and guns. No banker has ever declared war on the streets against the people. The government keeps that as their prerogative.
This is why I work with those in government who understand what is really going on. They are not all on the same page. There are some who fear what is coming and it is worse than these crazy conspiracy theories that discredit the truth. Investigate the Fourth Branch of Government and they will call you a conspiracy nut-job. Post-Bush, they want now only puppets in the White House. Obama criticized the NSA under Bush – he has expanded and defended them as President. Was it his agenda or is he dancing to their music?
The Real Conspiracy
All these conspiracy theories do is discredit, confuse, and misdirect the people from paying attention to government. I wrote when the Arab Spring began and they saw how the youth organized using Twitter and Facebook that the various dictators did not control, what happened? The US suddenly needed the INTERNET KILL SWITCH in case we were under cyber attack. That was Sen. Joe Lieberman who introduced that and anyone who thinks they won’t do it because they will then lose the NSA – ya good one. Why do you think the NSA taps into Facebook? For Terrorists planning their next barbecue? When it comes to the civil unrest they expect coming this way from Europe, they will shut down the internet in a heartbeat out of self-interest – maintaining control and power.
Every bill that has taken rights away is introduced by someone leaving or can be blackmailed. Charlie Rangel got caught not paying taxes. He is the one that introduces draconian tax measure. Charlie doesn’t even live in the district he represents – he lives not in NY, but NJ.
Then there is Lindsey Graham who advocated taking the right to trial away, due process of law, and to allow the government to indefinitely imprison anyone it “suspects” without any right to anything.
This is what they were doing to me until the US Supreme Court ordered the government to respond how I could be held indefinitely with no trial or right to a lawyer. When I was getting into the Supreme Court, they got 3 postponements and then had to release me for fear if the Supreme Court ruled against them, they would lose that power. Then the bill to do what they did to me was introduced and is now LAW – thank you Lindsey. (Watch Him on YouTube). I am often introduced Behind the Curtain as the reason they needed that law. The rumor about Lindsey on the Hill is he is gay, flies to Paris even once a month, and he was blackmailed to introduce that bill. Every person who has introduced these draconian bills is vulnerable. You do not need to look at private groups. Pay attention to Behind the Curtain in Washington. That is the real issue – the Bureaucracy – not even the elected pretend representatives.
READER COMMENTS:
Hi Mr Armstrong.
Yes, you make a god point about why people are silly by making up so many elaborate conspiracy theories when the real culprit is right under our noses; the government. I think it’s actually deliberate, similar to what magicians do in many of the acts – misdirection. They create the illusion right under people’s noses by redirecting their attention to something else. Perhaps the government is not that clever but regardless, the misdirection aspect is real, whether by design or by accident. Another aspect is the only conspiracies that were ever real were ones devised by governments. For example, the Japanese government just prior to Pearl Harbor being bombed planned their conspiracy against the US. That was real but not uncovered until afterwards (at great cost by both sides). In the end though there is nothing we can do to stop governments from doing whatever they want to do. After all they have all the power and materials to carry out their plans, as you stated, not the so called secret societies and filthy rich individuals.
Many thanks.
