Interesting time we are living in. So much in flux, yet so much coming together to form a beautiful picture of the brand new world ahead of us.
The road has been winding with lots of twists and turns. There were bumps in the road and sometimes deep pot holes we ran into that assured us of a slow down. The occasional flat tire or bent rim was just the product of the bumps and holes.
The pavement appears to have been fixed and the road is smoothing out, pushing us along to a straighter existence. The new will linger for many years if gaurded and nurtured as we travel along a brand new path to freedom.
We have many to thank for the sun shining down on us. Each day brighter than the last, and the rainy gloomy days coming to an end. It took the world to see the pitfalls and come together to repair the damage and bring those together who have fought to save ourselves as well as our fellow man.
The future is bright and full of promise. Remeber to take care of it this time, teach your children, your grandchildren and pass it on for generations to come. History will be written and rewritten and the world will stand in awe of the miracles being delivered.
Never forget who you are and where you came from, do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Pay it forward each and every day and you will see the world change before your eyes. So much is coming that many will have difficulty grasping the new concepts, grasping the truth.
Truth is what we make of it. It is a journey of the soul and not one person stands in the exact spot of another. Share your knowledge, your ideas and your loving care with everyone you encounter. Now is the time to rejoice and bring forward the perpetual change that is coming.
Most of all spread the love to one another. Be kind and grateful each day and learn to be that beakon of light that shines the way for others to follow. Come together and create the world you wish to pass as a legacy to others. It takes everyone as a collective to make those dreams manifest and come forward.
Do not live in fear, always remember that fear is a control mechanism. When we live fearing, we succumb to the whims of those offering protection. Stand up and be counted, live in the heart and see thru the heart center and you will know what the soul is saying.
Enjoy your new lives and bless those around you. We have so much to be thankful for, and more is coming. Months will be counted, and each one will expose a new wonder if you are paying attention. Be the best you can be and others will follow suit.
Fulfill your dreams and wishes and find peace within. Then show others the path and lets fix what's broken and make it brand new. What a sight to see, as we turn back the hands of time to a simpler existence, but with new technology that will forever change us.
Be blessed, have fun, come to peace within and enjoy the new YOU, the new US, the new WORLD.
Much love to you all and I thank everyone for holding the light for others and keeping spirits high and flying until we reached set goals. Continue to set those goals and make them count.
I have been so blessed to have encountered some of the most caring and gracious people on this journey. I know all will do good things and make this a memory that will last forever. A very special thanks to all who have fought this battle for many years and will continue to do so, to right the wrongs that were cast upon us. I also thank all of you who shared in the dream, and help get us all to the light just outside the tunnel (you know who your are). Love you all, be at peace, and remember bless others.
Love and Light to you all,
Brenda (aka Shining)

It took the women to bring all to it's fruition to kick this world into it's future. Enough hunger, poverty, wars, and political non speak. The first light is shining thru the crack of the vault door. There's a whole lot more than money on the other side of it. Preparation for your arrival is what took sooooo long. Freedom in its' ultimate sense was always the goal all for humanity as a whole. It always was possible but some intestinal fortitude was required. The Alpha/omega point in human history has arrived and we'll live thru it....Scarcely believing what we see with our own eyes. We quickly arrive in the world of Knowing and leave 'Beliefs' behind. Turn your back on the past and entertain it no longer. The history books will be re-written for the children and some adults to get the real history of he US. The silence is from the collective breathe being held across the planet...will they do it now? This time? Waiting to exhale, from the massive 'in breath'. Really, Now? YES, Now.

Who IS NOT Paying Taxes?
A Who’s Who List of Who Isn’t Paying Income Tax – Sit Down Before Reading
This is just more proof that our government is run by self-serving corrupt nincompoops...

A Who’s Who List of Who Isn’t Paying Income Tax – Sit Down Before Reading
By Michael Snyder (The Economic Collapse Blog | Original Link)
The federal income tax is a bad joke and it needs to be abolished. All over the nation, hard working American families are being absolutely crushed by oppressive levels of taxation, and our politicians are constantly coming up with new ways to extract money from all of us every single year. Meanwhile, many ultra-wealthy Americans and many of the most profitable corporations in the country pay little to nothing in taxes. In fact, as you will see below, there are dozens of very prominent corporations that make billions of dollars in profits and yet don’t pay a dime in taxes. Tax avoidance has become a multi-billion dollar industry in the United States. Those that have the resources to “play the game” use shell companies, offshore tax havens and the thousands of loopholes in our tax code to minimize their tax burdens as much as possible. Meanwhile, the rest of us get absolutely hammered. This is fundamentally unfair. The federal income tax system is irreversibly broken at this point, and it is time to abolish it. If you think that the federal income tax system can be “fixed”, then you probably have never studied it. Our tax code is nearly 4 million words long and it is absolutely riddled with thousands of loopholes that favor big corporations and the ultra-wealthy. We should come up with a better, fairer way to fund the government. The United States once prospered greatly without a federal income tax, and it could do so again.
Many people simply do not believe that it is possible for corporations inside the United States to make billions of dollars in profits each year and not pay a dime in income taxes.
Well, according to a report put out by Public Campaign, that is exactly what is happening. Posted below are numbers that come directly from their report. 30 large corporations are listed, and 29 of them had a tax burden for 2008 through 2010 that was less than zero even though they all made enormous profits. And all 30 of them spent more on lobbying than they did on taxes.
The numbers that you are about to see are for 2008, 2009 and 2010 combined. For “taxes paid”, please note that for 29 of the corporations a negative number is given. That means that the net tax liability for 2008 through 2010 was actually less than zero.
After seeing these numbers, is there anyone out there that is still willing to claim that our tax system is “fair”?…

The following is from a report that was just released by Citizens for Tax Justice…
Earlier this month, the Facebook Inc. released its first “10-K” annual financial report since going public last year. Hidden in the report’s footnotes is an amazing admission: despite $1.1 billion in U.S. profits in 2012, Facebook did not pay even a dime in federal and state income taxes.
Instead, Facebook says it will receive net tax refundstotaling $429 million.
Instead, Facebook says it will receive net tax refundstotaling $429 million.
According to Businessweek, Facebook has an additional 2 billion dollars in tax credits that it will be able to use in future years…
Facebook says that it anticipates reducing its tax liability in the future by an additional $2.17 billion by using further net operating loss carry-forwards that it has banked.
And of course when it comes to abusing the tax system, the big Wall Street banks are some of the worst offenders. The following is an excerpt from a report put out by the office of U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders…

Here are just a few examples of how the corporations and Wall Street banks these CEOs work for have significantly harmed our economy and the federal budget:
1. Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan
Number of Offshore Tax Havens in 2010? 371.
In 2010, Bank of America operated 371 subsidiaries incorporated in offshore tax havens. 204 of these subsidiaries are incorporated in the Cayman Islands, which has a corporate tax rate of 0%.
Amount of federal income taxes Bank of America would have owed if offshore tax havens were eliminated? $2.5 billion.
Bank of America has stashed $18.5 billion in offshore tax havens to avoid paying U.S. income taxes. Bank of America would owe an estimated $2.5 billion in federal income taxes if its use of offshore tax avoidance was eliminated.
Amount of federal income taxes paid in 2010? Zero. $1.9 billion tax refund.
Bank of America received a $1.9 billion tax refund from the IRS in 2010, even though it made $4.4 billion in profits.
Taxpayer Bailout from the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department? Over $1.3 trillion.
During the financial crisis, Bank of America received a total of more than $1.3 trillion in virtually zero interest loans from the Federal Reserve and a $45 billion bailout from the Treasury Department.
2. JP Morgan Chase CEO James Dimon
Number of Offshore Tax Havens in 2010? 83.
In 2010, JP Morgan Chase operated 83 subsidiaries incorporated in offshore tax havens.
Amount of federal income taxes JP Morgan Chase would have owed if offshore tax havens were eliminated? $4.9 billion
JP Morgan Chase has stashed $21.8 billion in offshore tax haven countries to avoid payng income taxes. If this practice was outlawed, it would have paid $4.9 billion in federal income taxes.
Taxpayer Bailout from the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department? $416 billion
During the financial crisis, JP Morgan Chase received a total of more than $391 billion in virtually zero interest loans from the Federal Reserve and a $25 billion bailout from the Treasury Department, while Jamie DImon served as a director of the New York Federal Reserve.
3. Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein
Amount of federal income taxes paid in 2008? Zero. $278 million tax refund.
In 2008, Goldman Sachs received a $278 million refund from the IRS, even though it earned a profit of $2.3 billion that year.
Number of offshore tax havens in 2010? 39.
In 2010, Goldman Sachs operated 39 subsidiaries in offshore tax haven countries.
Amount of federal income taxes Goldman Sachs would have owed if offshore tax havens were eliminated? $3.32 billion.

Are you starting to get the picture?
The big banks and the big corporations make billions, but they pay nothing or next to nothing.
The rest of us bust our rear ends to try to get ahead, and we get gougedby dozens of different taxes.
Over time, the percentage of the overall tax burden shouldered by corporations has gotten smaller and smaller.
Back in 1950, corporate taxes accounted for about 30 percent of all federal revenue. In 2012, corporate taxes accounted for less than 7 percent of all federal revenue.
These days, large corporations have become absolute masters at avoiding taxes. In fact, there are many international tax havens that are doing a booming business in setting up sham headquarters for U.S. corporations. For example, the city of Zug, Switzerland only has a population of 26,000 people but it is the headquarters for 30,000 companies.
But corporations are not the only ones doing this kind of thing.
The ultra-wealthy have also mastered the art of legally not paying taxes.
As I mentioned in a previous article, it has been reported that the global elite have up to 32 TRILLION dollars stashed in offshore banks around the globe.
With that amount of money, you could pay off the entire U.S. national debt and still have enough money left over to buy every product and service produced in the United States during an entire year.
It is time to admit that our tax system is broken.
Congress has had decades to fix it, and yet the abuses just keep getting worse.
What we are doing is not working.
We need to abolish the income tax.
If you are still not convinced that the federal income tax is an abomination and that we need to abolish it, here are some more shocking facts about our tax system from one of my previous articles about taxes…
1 - The U.S. tax code is now 3.8 million words long. If you took all of William Shakespeare’s works and collected them together, the entire collection would only be about 900,000 words long.
2 - According to the National Taxpayers Union, U.S. taxpayers spendmore than 7.6 billion hours complying with federal tax requirements. Imagine what our society would look like if all that time was spent on more economically profitable activities.
3 - 75 years ago, the instructions for Form 1040 were two pages long. Today, they are 189 pages long.
4 - There have been 4,428 changes to the tax code over the last decade. It is incredibly costly to change tax software, tax manuals and tax instruction booklets for all of those changes.
5 - According to the National Taxpayers Union, the IRS currently has1,999 different publications, forms, and instruction sheets that you can download from the IRS website.
6 - Our tax system has become so complicated that it is almost impossible to file your taxes correctly. For example, back in 1998 Money Magazine had 46 different tax professionals complete a tax return for a hypothetical household. All 46 of them came up with a different result.
7 - In 2009, PC World had five of the most popular tax preparation software websites prepare a tax return for a hypothetical household. All five of them came up with a different result.
8 - The IRS spends $2.45 for every $100 that it collects in taxes.
9 - According to The Tax Foundation, the average American has to workuntil April 17th just to pay federal, state, and local taxes. Back in 1900, “Tax Freedom Day” came on January 22nd.
10 - When the U.S. government first implemented a personal income tax back in 1913, the vast majority of the population paid a rate of just 1 percent, and the highest marginal tax rate was just 7 percent.
11 - Residents of New Jersey pay $1.64 in taxes for every $1.00 of federal spending that they get back.
12 - The United States is the only nation on the planet that tries to tax citizens on what they earn in foreign countries.
13 - According to Forbes, the 400 highest earning Americans pay an average federal income tax rate of just 18 percent.
14 - Warren Buffett had an effective tax rate of just 17.4 percent for 2010.
15 - The top 20 percent of all income earners in the United States payapproximately 86 percent of all federal income taxes.
16 - Sadly, as Bill Whittle has shown, you could take every single penny that every American earns above $250,000 and it would only fund about 38 percent of the federal budget.
Please share this article with as many people as you can. We have now entered a time of the year when tens of millions of Americans will be filling out their tax returns, and the pain of going through that process will make people even more receptive than normal to the truth about how broken our system is.
So what do you think?
Do you think that it is fair for the ultra-wealthy and hugely profitable corporations to get away with paying zero taxes while you get hammered?
Do you believe that it is time to abolish the income tax?

Number of Offshore Tax Havens in 2010? 371.
In 2010, Bank of America operated 371 subsidiaries incorporated in offshore tax havens. 204 of these subsidiaries are incorporated in the Cayman Islands, which has a corporate tax rate of 0%.
Amount of federal income taxes Bank of America would have owed if offshore tax havens were eliminated? $2.5 billion.
Bank of America has stashed $18.5 billion in offshore tax havens to avoid paying U.S. income taxes. Bank of America would owe an estimated $2.5 billion in federal income taxes if its use of offshore tax avoidance was eliminated.
Amount of federal income taxes paid in 2010? Zero. $1.9 billion tax refund.
Bank of America received a $1.9 billion tax refund from the IRS in 2010, even though it made $4.4 billion in profits.
Taxpayer Bailout from the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department? Over $1.3 trillion.
During the financial crisis, Bank of America received a total of more than $1.3 trillion in virtually zero interest loans from the Federal Reserve and a $45 billion bailout from the Treasury Department.
2. JP Morgan Chase CEO James Dimon
Number of Offshore Tax Havens in 2010? 83.
In 2010, JP Morgan Chase operated 83 subsidiaries incorporated in offshore tax havens.
Amount of federal income taxes JP Morgan Chase would have owed if offshore tax havens were eliminated? $4.9 billion
JP Morgan Chase has stashed $21.8 billion in offshore tax haven countries to avoid payng income taxes. If this practice was outlawed, it would have paid $4.9 billion in federal income taxes.
Taxpayer Bailout from the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department? $416 billion
During the financial crisis, JP Morgan Chase received a total of more than $391 billion in virtually zero interest loans from the Federal Reserve and a $25 billion bailout from the Treasury Department, while Jamie DImon served as a director of the New York Federal Reserve.
3. Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein
Amount of federal income taxes paid in 2008? Zero. $278 million tax refund.

Amount of federal income taxes Goldman Sachs would have owed if offshore tax havens were eliminated? $3.32 billion.
Goldman Sachs has stashed $20.63 billion in offshore tax haven countries to avoid paying income taxes. If this practice was outlawed, it would have paid $3.32 billion in federal income taxes.
Taxpayer Bailout from the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department? $824 billion.
During the financial crisis, Goldman Sachs received a total of $814 billion in virtually zero interest loans from the Federal Reserve and a $10 billion bailout from the Treasury Department.

Are you starting to get the picture?
The big banks and the big corporations make billions, but they pay nothing or next to nothing.
The rest of us bust our rear ends to try to get ahead, and we get gougedby dozens of different taxes.
Over time, the percentage of the overall tax burden shouldered by corporations has gotten smaller and smaller.
Back in 1950, corporate taxes accounted for about 30 percent of all federal revenue. In 2012, corporate taxes accounted for less than 7 percent of all federal revenue.
These days, large corporations have become absolute masters at avoiding taxes. In fact, there are many international tax havens that are doing a booming business in setting up sham headquarters for U.S. corporations. For example, the city of Zug, Switzerland only has a population of 26,000 people but it is the headquarters for 30,000 companies.
But corporations are not the only ones doing this kind of thing.
The ultra-wealthy have also mastered the art of legally not paying taxes.
As I mentioned in a previous article, it has been reported that the global elite have up to 32 TRILLION dollars stashed in offshore banks around the globe.
With that amount of money, you could pay off the entire U.S. national debt and still have enough money left over to buy every product and service produced in the United States during an entire year.
It is time to admit that our tax system is broken.
Congress has had decades to fix it, and yet the abuses just keep getting worse.
What we are doing is not working.
We need to abolish the income tax.
If you are still not convinced that the federal income tax is an abomination and that we need to abolish it, here are some more shocking facts about our tax system from one of my previous articles about taxes…
1 - The U.S. tax code is now 3.8 million words long. If you took all of William Shakespeare’s works and collected them together, the entire collection would only be about 900,000 words long.
2 - According to the National Taxpayers Union, U.S. taxpayers spendmore than 7.6 billion hours complying with federal tax requirements. Imagine what our society would look like if all that time was spent on more economically profitable activities.
3 - 75 years ago, the instructions for Form 1040 were two pages long. Today, they are 189 pages long.
4 - There have been 4,428 changes to the tax code over the last decade. It is incredibly costly to change tax software, tax manuals and tax instruction booklets for all of those changes.
5 - According to the National Taxpayers Union, the IRS currently has1,999 different publications, forms, and instruction sheets that you can download from the IRS website.
6 - Our tax system has become so complicated that it is almost impossible to file your taxes correctly. For example, back in 1998 Money Magazine had 46 different tax professionals complete a tax return for a hypothetical household. All 46 of them came up with a different result.
7 - In 2009, PC World had five of the most popular tax preparation software websites prepare a tax return for a hypothetical household. All five of them came up with a different result.
8 - The IRS spends $2.45 for every $100 that it collects in taxes.
9 - According to The Tax Foundation, the average American has to workuntil April 17th just to pay federal, state, and local taxes. Back in 1900, “Tax Freedom Day” came on January 22nd.
10 - When the U.S. government first implemented a personal income tax back in 1913, the vast majority of the population paid a rate of just 1 percent, and the highest marginal tax rate was just 7 percent.
11 - Residents of New Jersey pay $1.64 in taxes for every $1.00 of federal spending that they get back.
12 - The United States is the only nation on the planet that tries to tax citizens on what they earn in foreign countries.
13 - According to Forbes, the 400 highest earning Americans pay an average federal income tax rate of just 18 percent.
14 - Warren Buffett had an effective tax rate of just 17.4 percent for 2010.
15 - The top 20 percent of all income earners in the United States payapproximately 86 percent of all federal income taxes.
16 - Sadly, as Bill Whittle has shown, you could take every single penny that every American earns above $250,000 and it would only fund about 38 percent of the federal budget.
Please share this article with as many people as you can. We have now entered a time of the year when tens of millions of Americans will be filling out their tax returns, and the pain of going through that process will make people even more receptive than normal to the truth about how broken our system is.
So what do you think?
Do you think that it is fair for the ultra-wealthy and hugely profitable corporations to get away with paying zero taxes while you get hammered?
Do you believe that it is time to abolish the income tax?

Selling the Iraq War - A MUST SEE!!
The MSNBC documentary Hubris: The Selling of the Iraq War tells the story of how an American presidential administration expanded the power of the executive branch, and deceived America into a war.
Hubris begins by bearing a striking resemblance to the excellent 2008 PBS Frontline two part series titled Bush’s War.
Here is Part 1 of Bush’s War:
Watch Bush’s War Part 1 on PBS. See more from FRONTLINE.
Watch Bush’s War Part 2 on PBS. See more from FRONTLINE.
Maddow referenced a 1998 letter from the neo-cons eager to invade Iraq that laid out their strategy to then President Bill Clinton, Given the magnitude of the threat, the current policy, which depends for its success upon the steadfastness of our coalition partners and upon the cooperation of Saddam Hussein, is dangerously inadequate. The only acceptable strategy is one that eliminates the possibility that Iraq will be able to use or threaten to use weapons of mass destruction. In the near term, this means a willingness to undertake military action as diplomacy is clearly failing. In the long term, it means removing Saddam Hussein and his regime from power. That now needs to become the aim of American foreign policy.When George W. Bush became president neo-cons filled his cabinet, and almost immediately they started looking for an excuse to go war with Iraq.
We urge you to articulate this aim, and to turn your Administration’s attention to implementing a strategy for removing Saddam’s regime from power. This will require a full complement of diplomatic, political and military efforts. Although we are fully aware of the dangers and difficulties in implementing this policy, we believe the dangers of failing to do so are far greater. We believe the U.S. has the authority under existing UN resolutions to take the necessary steps, including military steps, to protect our vital interests in the Gulf. In any case, American policy cannot continue to be crippled by a misguided insistence on unanimity in the UN Security Council.
The new interview footage with some of the players ten years later makes this documentary special, but this is a story that should be told more often than once every five years.
Ten years later, the nation is still dealing with the consequences of the invasion of Iraq. The recent criticisms of drone warfare often leaves out the fact that the reason why the executive branch has expanded power is because Congress failed to act as a check on George W. Bush. Republicans and Democrats, by an overwhelming margin in the Senate and House, gave George W. Bush a blank check expansion of executive powers that will forever be cashed. (One thing that partisans on both sides of aisle often forget is that once power is expanded and the precedent is set, there are no givebacks.)
After 9/11, the Bush administration governed by fear. Their fear based politics took the country into a very dark place that led to preemptive war, torture, and domestic spying on American citizens among other things. In some ways, Hubris: The Selling of the Iraq War is mistitled. How the war on Iraq was sold to the country functions more as a subplot. Instead, Hubris is documentary about how the Bush administration built a web of lies that allowed them to take the nation into an war that was unrelated to 9/11.
We should never question or demean the sacrifice of the nearly 4,500 Americans who died and the 100,000+ who were wounded in Iraq, but the nation should never forget the lessons learned from how the Bush administration was able to create the disingenuous impressions required to justify the invasion of Iraq.
This documentary reminds us that Presidents Day isn’t only about celebrating great presidents. It is also a day to remember that misused presidential power does grave damage to our nation.
Watch Hubris: The Selling of the Iraq War.

Ben Fulford 2/18/2013
Benjamin Fulford – Full Update – After Pope Falls, British Monarchy Under Severe Attack, Global Turbulence Increases – 18 February 2013
The resignations of Pope Malevolent and Queen Beatrix have now put the British Monarchy under severe attack with allegations of incest, human sacrifice and cuckoo bird like substitutions of genuine monarchs with non-genetically linked intruders. It is not clear yet if these allegations are true or are merely part of a psychological warfare campaign aimed at forcing the resignation of Queen Elizabeth along with Princes Charles and William.
The detailed allegations can be seen at the following two links:
http://americannationalmilitia.com/arrested/
http://www.theworldoftruth.net/HallettReport/No6.html#.USGbkmeVAgR
An MI5 source says the articles above are disinformation related to ongoing attempts to seize massive wealth controlled by the UK royal family. What is clear is that heavy infighting is going on at the top.
There are many seemingly unrelated events, notably meteorite falls and disease outbreaks, that may in fact be signs of cabal infighting. During the last week meteorites (rocks that actually land) and meteors (ones that explode in the sky) were reported in Russia, Japan, Cuba and Florida (were Obama was staying for a top secret “golf game”). Perhaps unrelatedly, a SARS like disease and or bird flu were reported in the UK, Mexico and Germany last week. Not to mention a major dam burst in China.
In the midst of all this Russia has dispatched nuclear bombers to threaten US bases while North Korea, acting as a proxy for Japan,
revealed to the world it had intercontinental nuclear missile capability. This was a message by the Japanese to the Chinese, Russians and Americans that it was not some stuffed turkey ready to be carved up.
With the Pope, Queen Beatrix, the Bushes and the Rockefellers out of the picture, the struggle now seems to be between backers of President Barak “Thunder of Satan” Obama, the British Monarchy, the gnostic illuminati and the Asian secret societies.
Obama was taken to Florida over the weekend for some secret mission and apparently happened to be there just in time for a meteor shower.
Is this a coincidence? Remember the Russian “meteorite” fall came after homosexually bonded Skull and Bones slave and opium secret society US Secretary of State John Kerry was repeatedly ignored by Russia’s foreign minister. It also came after two Russian nuclear bombers entered US airspace near the Guam military base in the Pacific. It could all be a coincidence but then again it could be big boys waving their toys at each other.
The Gnostic illuminati say that without the Pope behind him, Obama is “like a three legged stool that just lost a leg.” The Gnostic illuminati say they are descended from the survivors of Atlantis and Carthage and they believe the evil entity responsible for that destruction resides in Rome. In their view, the destruction of Rome would be justified by the historical actions of Rome against other great ancient cities and civilizations.
We can only hope that if the next pope is named Peter the Roman, that he will merely be the last Roman pope before the Roman Catholic Church merges with the Orthodox Christian and Protestant Churches and it ceases to be “Roman.” We must all pray that Rome and its priceless artistic, architectural and cultural heritage survive.
The photograph in the link above of the Pope making a masonic handshake with the Queen in front of a blonde boy in a kilt does raise a lot of questions.
It is true that most members of the British Commonwealth have been brought up with the Queen as a benevolent symbol with little real power. During my childhood she was presented as a symbol of all that was good and great about the British people and the British Empire (the bad stuff they did was not the Queen’s fault).
However, the Queen as a symbol may not be the same thing as the queen as a human being. A first cousin of the Queen has told me in the past about human sacrifices presided over by the Queen at Balmoral castle. This is what an MI5 source had to say about that: “Yes I have also been told the same by a credible source.” There is also plenty of evidence that Princess Diana was killed to protect the honour of the British royal family because she was pregnant with the child of her Muslim fiancée Dodi Fayed.
Then again there was the recent confirmed finding of the body of an Eastern European male (suspected of being linked to the heroin trade) at Sandhingham castle.
What the Queen needs to do, if she is to survive the ongoing onslaught, is to come clean about any skeletons in her closet and ask for the forgiveness of her people.
The MI5 source says that both the Queen and the Pope were symbolic figureheads of ancient bureaucratic organizations that were hostile towards them and chasing after the great wealth controlled by the British Monarchy and the Papacy. The CIA retorts that the Queen has been repeatedly caught trying to get her hands on assets that belong to the Global Collateral Accounts and not her.
Apart from Obama, the Queen and the Pope, there were other signs of high level action against the cabal last week.
In particular, there are signs of what may be an organized global boycott against cabal controlled corporations. Recently India has cancelled a $750 million Anglo-Italian helicopter deal over allegations of bribery. A French military aircraft sale to India is also on hold. Then there are the mysterious battery problems that have virtually stopped all Boeing aircraft sales since the beginning of this year. Then again there is the Russian ban on all Beef imports from the US. Are we seeing a pattern here?
There is also now whistle blowing taking place in France concerning the ongoing French theft of Tunisian, Libyan and Malian gold. Here is a French language article with the details:
http://www.varmatin.com/var/lor-sale-de-ben-ali-est-il-passe-impunement-par-nice.1130381.html
The unrest in Europe, meanwhile, has spread East. Last week there were riots in Bulgaria following a recent drastic hike in energy prices, according to a source there. There will be more price hikes followed by more riots in Europe and the US.
In Asia, meanwhile, now that the Chinese New Lunar Year’s holidays are ending, the new regime of Xi Jinping will formally take over the reins of government. There will be lots of secret negotiations during the last part of February and, following that, the new government is expected to come out with an aggressive domestic and international agenda.
If the Chinese play their cards right and coordinate with the 180 nation BRICS group, they should be able to force an end to the cabal dominated post-war international system of governance. If they play their cards badly, for example by falling into the baited Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands trap, they could lose all their valuable soft power.

Jumped the gun, last week but, this past week produced some things that tell you there is nothing 'normal' afoot. The last time the phenom in russia happened was in 1908.
So this week I will review what's coming at the world with these global settlements. First my legs have Not been cut off to the folks getting this done, and never set yourself up as the only knower of what's up. Even DC has to wait on the button to get pushed and in many instances they know less than I do. When you get sent to the bank to access, you will be accessing directly into a 5 star trust, built by the dragons so the banker will have all the details for you, just ask what ever questions you wish. One group has the power to release the accounts, not any politicians, kings or queens...not even the pope. Contrary to another talking head, the gold has already been moved to the 6 new trading zones around the world. The world's debt and assets have been absorbed by the 'Harmonius World' action group, setting up the situation where the fed reserve system, the BIS, IMF, etc will cease running the global banking world. If you want further distance between what you wish to fund and are concerned about being targeted like a lottery winner, you may want to take a look at these folks www.thor.ca
This is not about politics, ladies and gentlemen. This is about world justice for humanity and the world marshals will be enforcing the new global accords. Don't ask me who they are, could be, they put interpol on steroids, don't know but I saw their mission statement. The St Germain trust folks joined the dragons a few years ago to reduce redundancy and they are the ones who came and got me in the late 80's. I do get a little annoyed when folks rattle on about being in control of it, it tells me they aren't and have no idea what it's purpose is. The attorneys keep that full so it can manifest it's destiny. 'Shift the wealth of the world'. We're in good shape and our freedom will come like that lightning bolt that hit the vatican. Sudden, little to no warning. Just make sure your surf board is waxed and ready to catch that first curl, 'hang ten' folks. lol I can see some of the more elderly rolling their eyes....I don't know about that Poofy.
Don't try any creative ventures to get around the new stuff, you will fail. They will shut you down. The rvs, drops, and announcements will come almost at the same time, which come in concert with the chinese. The banks will be open, even in china, but china goes first. Best listen first and understand. Lawyers and the like have a little upgrading to do and having never been in this world before, it'll take a minute to find out ifthey can even continue. But, hey, what do I know? I got dropped off the back of a wagon on the way to market. So I can tell how the cows ate the cabbage. Have fun and don't let let these 'smart guys' mislead you.
God Bless!
Oh yea, rumormill news has quite the article on the the queen of england.

Bix Weir - Jack Lew a Bad Guy?
Jack Lew is a "Bad Guy". He's such a Bad Guy that he is one of a handful of people within the government that have DIRECT responsibility of rigging the silver market.
Lew is currently under fire at his confirmation hearing for Treasury Secretary.
You can watch this criminal squirm here:
The battles are RAGING and we will win...just wish I knew when!

Simon And Garfunkel Bridge Over Troubled Water Lyrics
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLbOBoa8vD8
When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on Silver Girl,
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Greetings and Salutations;
What was considered 'impossible' a number of years ago, has now cracked into an 'inevitable' on the 'seeable' range for the whole world to appreciate. As I write, things are underway that put the world's assets and debt under the global trust. The rafters are coming down to ground level that actually effects the normal people in this world.

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on Silver Girl,
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Greetings and Salutations;
What was considered 'impossible' a number of years ago, has now cracked into an 'inevitable' on the 'seeable' range for the whole world to appreciate. As I write, things are underway that put the world's assets and debt under the global trust. The rafters are coming down to ground level that actually effects the normal people in this world. All institutions are being effected with this action, the normal 'suspects; Imf, BIS, World Bank, UN, and the various central banks, all of which effects the value of the currencies of the world's countries The chicken hawks will have to find something else to do with their time, because no money will be allocated to wars. Wha???? It's simple, if you control the purse strings, you also control what's done with the resources.

Bix Weir - Naked Silver Shorts
The world is waking up to the silver manipulation story...FINALLY!
The mechanisms of manipulation are being exposed. Those silver short "hedges" held by JP Morgan, Citibank and HSBC are a ridiculous house of cards supposedly justified by the following physical silver:
1) Hedged LBMA Warehouse silver
2) Hedged COMEX Warehouse silver
3) Hedged SLV Inventories
4) Hedged Pasqua-Lama & San Cristobal future production
5) Hedged Silver Wheaton royalty streams
6) Hedged silver producers
7) Hedged refiner and smelter silver inventories
8) Hedged jewelery manufacturers
9) Hedged retail bullion dealers
10) Other mystery hedges on mystery silver bullion
According to our good friend (ha!) Jeffrey Christian there's about 3.3B ounces of physical silver that are hedged...at least that's what he said at the 2012 Silver Summit.
But what does this really mean? Most legitimate hedges are closed out at the end of their term as they are set up to hedge against price fluctuation risk over a specific period of time. Clearly, there is little reason to go in and out of legitimate hedges that are mitigating price risk on owned metal unless physical metal is added or subtracted from inventory. So not all of the 3.3B oz need be hedged multiple times during the year. Sure, there are legit "traders" out there but they gain legitimacy ONLY due to the real market participants who are hedging the price of their owned metal.
So here's my question: If only 3.3B oz of physical silver are available for legitimate hedging why is the COMEX trading at volumes of 100B oz per year? And how in the WORLD does the LBMA "transfer" over 130B ounces of PHYSICAL silver every year?
Clearly something is very wrong when people like Jeffrey Christian claim that "hedging" at these volumes EVERY YEAR is legitimate.
***Keep an eye on Pasqua-Lama, San Cristobal and other silver mines that are being relied upon to deliver physical silver into forward silver sales contracts...Governments have a funny way of hanging onto their TRUE wealth when economic troubles start.
Mark my words...
"The wealth of every nation lies in their soil, not in their bank vaults."
May the Road you choose be the Right Road.

Ben Fulford - Changes
Queen Beatrix quits, the Rockefellers flee, the Bushes are rats in a trap; Queen Elizabeth, the Pope and the Rothschilds are still standing
Posted by benjamin fulford
February 5, 2013
The announcement last week that Queen "Bilderberg" Beatrix of the Netherlands was abdicating the throne is but a visible sign of some fundamental changes in the secret power structure of the West. In a yet to be publicly confirmed move, David and J. Rockefeller have fled to an Island near Fiji, according to a CIA source. The Bush family, for its part, tried to flee via an airport in Arkansas but were prevented from doing so by the FBI, the same source says.
This source, who correctly predicted the resignation of Queen Beatrix is also saying that Queen Elizabeth with resign in favour of her grandson in the near future.
These moves are all connected to the ongoing counter-attack against the genocidal Western elitists affiliated with the Bilderberg group, the Council on Foreign Relations and other related organizations. As will be described below, there is a lot more to come.
Also, at the time of this writing Lord James Sassoon has not responded to a hand-written letter delivered to him last week at the House of Lords in England asking for comment on the allegations that he bribed 82 politicians (actually paid actors) affiliated with Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party.
There are also plenty of indications of escalating infighting within the financial elite. The SWIFT international banking transfer system, for example, is becoming dysfunctional because large money transfers are being intercepted and diverted to unknown destinations before the intended recipients get their money, according to both MI5 and CIA sources. "The SWIFT system has several operational and procedural features that allow anyone with big computing power, i.e. cabal controlled bank servers, to spot and arrest large transactions, especially over $50 million," the MI5 source says. "SWIFT has in the past been temporarily disabled to allow Bush 41 to steal large transactions," he adds. The lack of trust between different cabal factions has meant that opposing factions have been regularly hijacking each other’s bank transfers, the CIA source corroborates.
The recent shouting match between Christine Lagarde, the head of the IMF, and Deutsche Bank CEO Jurgen Fitschen, reported by Tom Heneghan, was almost certainly related to one such major hijacking of funds.
Also, more and more gold plated tungsten bars are being found in bank storage vaults worldwide. So far it can be confirmed that the IMF, The Bank of China, the Bundesbank and the Bank of England have all had some or all of their gold replaced with tungsten. This is leading to a frantic search for the missing gold by various governments. Perhaps they should follow Richard Armitage, who is now taking global collateral accounts gold from Indonesia and gold from royal vaults in Thailand, refining it in Hong Kong and taking it to parts unknown (Paraguay, the Antarctic?), according to a CIA source.
Two separate US sources, one FBI and one CIA, have both contacted this writer and said that a lady by the name of "Madame Wong" has been installed as Empress in China and placed in charge of the 85% of the world’s gold whose last legitimate owner was the Qing dynasty. This is strange to hear because my Chinese sources tell me the current heir to the Qing dynasty is a man by the name of Dr. Yi. Perhaps this is an attempt by certain parties to claim rights to the world’s treasure by using a proxy.
In any case, you cannot eat gold and technically owning 85% of the world’s gold does not automatically give a person the right to decide the future of humanity. That right belongs to the people of the world.
On that front, there seems to be a major power struggle coming to a head in the US. As mentioned above the founding families of the Federal Reserve Board in the US have either fled or are trying to flee in order to avoid imminent arrest, according to the CIA. There is also apparently some complicated plot brewing in which the Congress and the Senate will trigger their own demise by impeaching Obama, at least so the CIA is saying. After Obama is impeached, he will announce that he is just a spokesperson and the Vice-President Biden was actually sworn in as is actually President.
Following that, the members of the Congress and Senate will be arrested and Obama will be formally reinstated as President, the CIA says. At this point a systematic purge of traitors will begin and no more dual Israeli/US citizens will be allowed in government. Once that is done, the newly restored US Republic will legally and rightfully renounce debt owed by the private Federal Reserve Board consortium to the rest of the world, or so the story goes. Believe it when you see it.
What is real though is that top Bilderberger Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands has resigned. The CIA source in Europe who correctly predicted this says Queen Elizabeth will also resign soon in favour of her grandson William. MI5 could not confirm this. A Dutch intelligence source says Beatrix’s resignation was planned long in advance and was connected to the fact that she turned 75.
Here is what an Italian royal family member had to say about Queen Beatrix: "I know she has been part of a ‘consortium’ with the Pope, Queen Elizabeth, the Yamato Dynasty and Adam Hapsburg that has been and is still fighting the evil so called Illuminati." A gnostic Illuminati source responds by saying they are not evil, just opposed to dynastic rule by Satanic bloodlines.
Speaking about Satan, there has been new intrigue in the Vatican. A certain Monsignor Egidio Vagnozzi died suddenly near the Vatican recently and was buried without an autopsy, according to an Italian aristocrat. Vagnozzi was pressing for a full investigation of the IOR – Instituto di Opere Religiose –Institute for Religious Works, i.e. the Vatican Bank. The "dark soul" behind the Vatican Bank is a Monsignor Donato de Bonis, the Italian aristocrat says. The Vatican Bank has been without a president for the past 8 months after a reformist president Ettori Gotti was controversially dismissed. Recently, credit card payments and ATMs in the Vatican have stopped because the Vatican bank is not complying with international money laundering regulations.
The Vatican Bank is reluctant to open its books to international scrutiny because massive bribes paid to senior politicians around the world would be exposed, according to several sources. The terms of the members of the oversight committee for the bank will expire on February 23rd. Let us see if the Vatican finally comes clean after that date.
One final note, a White Dragon Society member in Europe was attacked by two men with knives last week. The two men were beaten up and then arrested. They claimed they were paid $15,000 each by "Bilderbergers from Holland," to kill that WDS member. They were amateurs, indicating the Bilderbergers are running out of professional talent.
