Foundations: Their Power and Influence

http://www.amazon.com/Foundations-Influence-Rene-A-Wormser/dp/0925591289/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1332048508&sr=8-1

Format:Paperback
This book chronicles the work and findings of the Hearings Before the Special Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations and Comparable Organizations in the House of Representatives during the 2nd Session of the 83rd Congress on House Resolution 217. It was more commonly known as the "Reece Committee", so named for its chairman, Congressman Carroll Reece. The book was written by the General Counsel to the Committee, Rene A. Wormser. The preface was written by the Chairman himself, Carroll Reece. The Research Director of the Committee, Norman Dodd, gave a video-taped interview many years later in which he discussed further details surrounding the investigation and hearings, including the startling findings of the Committee's Legal Analyst, Kathryn Casey.

According to Mr. Dodd, in response to a letter he had written to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace asking certain questions about their history and operations, he was issued an invitation via telephone to go to their office in New York and meet with some of their representatives. He accepted the invitation, and when he arrived he was greeted by the President of the Foundation, Dr. Joseph Johnson, two vice presidents, and their legal counsel. They suggested to Mr. Dodd that he send a member of his staff to New York for two weeks and they would provide that person with a room in their library and the minute books of the foundation from its inception to the present. Dodd realized that most of these men were new in their positions, and preoccupied with other matters of greater importance to them, so he accepted the offer, knowing that none of them had ever likely read any of those minutes.

So, upon returning to Washington, Dodd sent the Committee's Legal Analyst, Kathryn Casey to New York for two weeks of intensive investigation reviewing the meeting minutes of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, wherein to her astonishment Miss Casey found, among other harrowing passages, that the trustees of the foundation had concluded in 1909 that the most effective means of altering the life of a nation was by involving it in war. Upon which conclusion they then posted the question of "How do we involve the United States in a war?" They decided that they would have to control the diplomatic machinery of the United States. They then determined that to do so they would have to gain control primarily over the State Department. As a means to that end the foundation created an instrumentality called the Council of Learned Societies, and that council was assigned the task of passing on every high official appointment of the State Department before the appointment was confirmed. Says Norman Dodd, in the course of this video-taped interview, "Well this happened, and pretty soon the country was in a war which came to be known, of course, as World War I. And this group of trustees at one point congratulated themselves on the wisdom of their original decision. Because, as they put it, war has demonstrated the power to alter the life of the people of this country already." This interview can be seen on You Tube, under the title of Norman Dodd On Tax Exempt Foundations.

This book contains detail after detail regarding the Congressionl Committee's findings about the Rockeffeler, Carnegie, and Ford foundations' efforts to control not only the politics of this country, but also the educational system by setting up subsidiary organizations and granting fellowships to cooperative members of academia. Suffice it to say that this operational structure continues to this day, because the Congressional Investigation was terminated prematurely and its findings were never disseminated widely. Such suppression is what led to the writing of this important book. The reading of this work is essential for attaining a deeper understanding of why things are the way they are in this country at present, and how they came to be so. Other enormously informative books on these topics are the following: "The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America" by Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt, "The Anglo-American Establishment" by Carroll Quigley, and "History of the Great American Fortunes" by Gustavus Myers.

Harvey Organ: Get Physical Gold & Silver!

http://www.chrismartenson.com/blog/harvey-organ-get-physical-gold-silver/73933

THE PRICE SUPPRESSION OF GOLD AND SILVER ABOUT TO COLLAPSE

The real suppression of the metals started in 1988. That’s when the leasing game started and was invented by J.P. Morgan.

These guys would go around to the mining companies and say, “Listen, I’m going to pay you for your gold in the ground and I will sell it. You just pay me as you bring it out.” So that was cheap financing to the miners. Barrick, the biggest mining company of them all, went in on this and it financed a lot of Nevada projects.

Once the leasing game came, the actual selling, the extra selling, suppressed the price. In the first five years, it started at maybe three hundred to four hundred tons. It didn’t start to get really bad until probably ’97-’98 with the Long Term Capital affair. And that’s when the leasing started to become around maybe 1,000 tons of gold. And it hasn’t stopped.

And silver is the same.

And that’s why you've had a long-term, 20 years of suppression of the metals. The problem now is that the physical is now gone. Where is going? It’s gone from West to East.

A lot of people don’t know that China used to refine close to 80% of the world’s supplies of silver, because it’s very toxic. Up until probably ’85, the Chinese handled 80% of the world’s refining of silver. Now they're down to 40%, but that’s still a major part of China’s industry. They are keeping every single silver ounce they refine, and gold. They are keeping it for themselves; their reserves are rising (though they don’t tell exactly). Two years ago they went up to 1,054 tons and I can assure you it’s probably triple that now. These guys are not stopping. Just like they are not stopping in oil. They know what the game is and they are slowly taking all their U.S. dollars that are on their shelf and converting them to gold, oil, copper – anything that’s real.

And the game ends when the last ounce of gold has left London -- not COMEX, because in a nanosecond it will come back to here.

The big problem in London is that their derivatives on gold are about 50 to 100-to-1. That’s the amount of derivatives. So if I take out that 1 ounce, the balloon around it -- the derivative -- is getting bigger and bigger and bigger until it’s ready to totally implode.

And that’s what you are seeing now. So right now, people are going to say: how high can it go? And I’m going to tell you: you are going to go to sleep on Thursday night and gold may be $1,670. And then you wake up the next day and it’s going to be a banking holiday. And gold will be $3,000 bid, no offer. No offer -- and it will be a banking holiday. Because there will be a failure to deliver.

You’ve got to have physical coins or bars. If all you have is a piece of paper -- that’s all it is! It will just blow up in smoke.

So just go buy your physical and be thankful that you are getting it at a cheaper price today.

The ten steps to establishing a dictatorship


Remember, Naomi Wolf talks about all this in her documentaryThe End of America, where she outlines the 10 steps through which all nations establish a dictatorship.
Those steps are:
1. Create an internal/external threat that terrorizes the populace. This has already been accomplished with Oklahoma City (false flag) and 9/11 (another false flag). Get the film "A Noble Lie" fromwww.InfoWars.comto learn the truth about Oklahoma City.
2. Create secret prisons, with torture. Obama did this nicely with the NDAA (as well as keeping GITMO open even after promising he would close it).
3. Create a paramilitary force. This is the TSA.
4. Single out ordinary citizens as 'troublesome persons.' This has been accomplished by Janet Napolitano's "if you see something, say something" propaganda campaign.
5. Establish surveillance of citizens' groups and ordinary citizens deemed 'troublesome.' This is already well under way through surveillance of emails, phone calls, vehicle movements and more.
6. Detain and release citizens without formally charging them with any crime. This has been "legalized" under Obama's NDAA. (http://www.naturalnews.com/034537_NDAA_Bill_of_Rights_Obama.html)
7. Target key individuals who are well known, popular figures. This has already begun and will likely accelerate. Who do you think killed Andrew Breitbart? Congressman Bono?
8. Restrict the press. Already done. The U.S. government, in fact, essentiallyrunsthe mainstream media today. White House announcements are simply printed as "fact" with zero journalism and zero fact checking taking place.
9. Redefine dissent as treason. This is already happening with figures like Ted Nugent who was recently "visited" by the Secret Service after his anti-Obama rant. All throughout government speeches today, the criminals at the very top proclaim that anyone who questions government is "anti-American" and might be involved in domestic terrorism. The FBI even warns that people who "stockpile food" might be terrorists! (Even though the government itself stockpiles massive quantities of food, guns, ammunition, communications gear, medical supplies and more...)
10. Subvert the rule of law. Already done. Law has been complete abandoned by the ATF, DEA, FDA, USDA and every other federal agency you can think of. The Attorney General Eric Holder actively plots ways to destroy the Bill of Rights, and the government stages false flag terror attacks to undermine constitutional protections.

    Jailed for $280: The return of debtors' prisons

    Although the U.S. abolished debtors' prisons in the 1830s, more than a third of U.S. states allow the police to haul people in who don't pay all manner of debts, from bills for health care services to credit card and auto loans. In parts of Illinois, debt collectors commonly use publicly funded courts, sheriff's deputies, and country jails to pressure people who owe even small amounts to pay up

    Death by Regulation

    http://lfb.org/today/death-by-regulation/

    The political class is not really running things. As I’ve written many times, the political class is only the veneer of the state; it is not the state itself. The state is the permanent bureaucratic structures, those untouched by elections. These institutions make up the real ruling apparatus of government.

    When the police come to take all you have and are determined to cut out your heart and soul and reduce your life to nothing but a sack of bones and muscle, without the right to choose to do what you love — and you really see no way out — do you really have a life? Wordes decided no.

    SOPA mutates into much worse CISPA, the latest threat to internet free speech

    http://www.naturalnews.com/035638_CISPA_SOPA_free_speech.html

    ...unless the American people speak up now to stop it, CISPA could lead to far worse repercussions for online free speech than SOPA or PIPA ever would have.

    Hookers Downgrade US Credit Rating

    Shortchanging by Secret Service Draws Strong Rebuke

    NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) – Days after Secret Service agents shortchanged a group of prostitutes in Colombia, the international trade group representing hookers downgraded the United States’ credit rating from AAA to B.

    The strong rebuke from the International Alliance of Professional Escorts came after a Secret Service agent reportedly paid one of its members $30 for an $800 service, or only 4% of the stated price.

    The statement from the International Alliance of Professional Escorts said that in downgrading the United States’ credit rating it was sending a clear message that its “members should be aware that doing business with the government of the United States carries with it a significant risk.”

    “We are urging our members to avoid conducting transactions with the United States and to focus on more reliable customers, like the International Monetary Fund,” the statement added.

    Just hours after the announcement from the escorts’ group, the U.S. Congress passed the following resolution blasting the Secret Service for its actions: “We strongly denounce the Secret Service for consorting with prostitutes, which has traditionally been Congress's role.”

    But it was not all bad news this week for the Secret Service, which today reported a 5000% jump in enlistment.

    The agency said that enlistment offices across the country have been packed with prospective agents, including House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who abruptly dropped out of the Presidential race to join.

    You can tell a lot about a person by assessing what they purchase. It's called "consumer profiling," and corporations do it all the time. That's how those grocery store loyalty discount programs work, by the way -- they profile your psychology by analyzing what you're buying. From that information, they can target you for coupons, mailers and other marketing campaigns that "magically" speak to your particular interests. It's not magic, of course; it's justbehavioral profiling.

    So what happens if we profile the purchasing behavior of the U.S. government? What do we find?

    How Wealth Reduces Compassion

    http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=how-wealth-reduces-compassion

    Who is more likely to lie, cheat, and steal—the poor person or the rich one? It’s temping to think that the wealthier you are, the more likely you are to act fairly. After all, if you already have enough for yourself, it’s easier to think about what others may need. But research suggests the opposite is true: as people climb the social ladder, their compassionate feelings towards other people decline.

    Fox News Wins Pulitzer for Fiction

    Prize Committee Praises Imagination, Inventiveness

    NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) – In an unprecedented honor for the Rupert Murdoch-led network, the Fox News Channel today won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction.

    In its official statement, the prize committee praised Fox for exhibiting “an imagination and inventiveness that rival the best of Charles Dickens and J.R.R. Tolkien.”

    In hailing Fox, the committee singled out the network’s fourteen-part story about President Obama’s birth in a mud-hut in Kenya.

    For Mr. Murdoch, the stunning Pulitzer Prize win was a rare bright spot in what he acknowledged had been “a difficult year.”

    “When I first heard about the Pulitzer committee’s decision, I didn’t believe it,” he said.  “I had to listen to their voicemails to hear it for myself.”
