The holiday lull is over, the fascist’s days are numbered.
Posted by benjamin
January 8, 2013
The fight {to} over the world’s financial system has been in limbo over the new year’s holiday, but big moves are now being made by various players in preparation for some upcoming decisive battles.
In the US, Obama’s regime, in a show of bravado to hide fear and desperation, has announced it will issue trillion-dollar coins, confiscate Americans’ guns, murder and imprison Americans without due process, and eliminate term-limits so Obama can be made dictator for life.
In the Middle-East, a move to revive the nation of Kurdistan, complete with control over massive oil fields, has slipped in under the radar. The Turks appear to have given a green light to this arrangement in exchange for promises of oil revenues, according to a Turkish government source.
The real game changer though, remains the ongoing process of bringing Asian gold and treasure holdings into play in the international financial system. Here some very nitty-gritty technical discussions are proceeding smoothly, if slowly.
The bottle-neck in bringing the Asian gold and treasure back into the global financial system, for the first time since President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, has been the question of who to put in charge and how to carry it out. There is concrete work going on to solve these issues but unfortunately, there is still a news embargo on the subject. However, the talks are highly detailed, involve well-known and not well-known players, smelters, warehouses of cash and other down-to-earth logistical issues. The new governments in Japan, North Korea, South Korea and China, however, are supporting this process, which is supposed to lead to the creation of a meritocratic world economic planning agency.
In the West, an exchange of hand-written memos has made it clear that the Freemasons, the gnostic illuminati and the eco-friendly branch of the Nazis, among others, also support the creation of such a meritocratic organization. Some of the major old world order bloodline groups are also tentatively supportive on the condition that traditional royal family perks remain in place.
The White Dragon Society has proposed that well-known and liked non-Western political veterans be put in charge of the initial staff selection for the agency. Three names in particular have been mentioned: Lee Kuan Yew, Mahathir Mohamad and Nelson Mandela.
None of these gentlemen have been contacted yet because the sherpas are still not finished with their work.
Such an agency would in no way replace existing structures but would instead be something entirely new and additional to the old order power structures.
The cabal, for its part, is still trying to threaten and terrorize the world in order to have its way. A recent report in the Jerusalem Post, wrongly attributed to the BBC, claimed that Iran had ordered the evacuation of 1.5 million people from the city of Ifshasan. This false report has been interpreted as a crude threat.
Despite such bravado, the situation in the Middle East seems to be moving towards some kind of settlement. The mercenary army in Syria has announced it is no longer being funded.
At the same time, two Kurdish families have been given control of vast oil fields in Northern Iraq with apparent Turkish agreement, according to MI6 and Turkish sources. The indications are that some sort of Sunni transnational alliance is emerging in the region and that the governments of Turkey, Egypt and Saudi Arabia are already on board.
The situation in the United States is a bit harder to read right now. As mentioned at the top, the Obama regime, while having prevented World War 3, is still very clearly a fascist, cabal controlled entity. Judging from the fact that top Bush/Clinton crime family members (Hillary and George Sr.) have been holed up in hospitals, it appears the US side of the cabal is now under the control of George Soros, the Rockefellers, Zbigniew Brzezinski and that group. In other words, the Nazi neo-con group lost a lot of influence when they failed to get their man Romney into the White House.
Clearly the way to liberate the United States and put an end to the fascist regime there remains removing cabal control of the process of monetary creation. This in turn hinges to some extent on the negotiations over Asian participation in that process. Some meetings this week might shed further light on how this process is advancing.
Another way to weaken cabal power is to attack the other big source (apart from central bank ownership) of their money: the international drug trade.
This newsletter has attempted to put a number on the scale of this trade by multiplying UN estimates of drug production by the average retail price. This sheds some interesting light on the economics of “drug wars.” (fyi some weird formatting problem occurred in this word processor as soon as I started writing about drugs) Heroin production in Afghanistan runs at a bit under 10,000 tons per year, or about $500 billion dollars retail. Given the annual costs of the Afghan war being $122 billion, that means the occupation of Afghanistan, in business terms, yields an annual profit margin of about 400%. Throw in cocaine at about $82 billion a year, amphetamines at about $600 billion per year and Marijuana at $1.3 trillion per year and you can see this is a roughly $2.5 trillion a year business (four times the pentagon budget), mostly controlled by the CIA and its web of gangster affiliates.
Discussion with CIA, triad, yakuza, North Korean and South American drug mafias reveal that they are all open to becoming legal, tax-paying businesses if drugs are legalized or decriminalized. This is especially easy to argue with hemp and marijuana because the overwhelming evidence, both medical and sociological, is that it should never have been made illegal in the first place.
So, by returning the right to create money to governments and by decriminalizing drugs, it is possible to cut off most of the world’s terrorist financing.
The pharmaceutical industry, another big cabal power spot, can also be co-opted by removing the taboo on life-prolonging, life-enhancing and pleasure-giving medicines.
That would leave the cabal with just oil as its last big money generator. Fortunately, the oil people have already agreed to a phased-in introduction of new energy-technology and a transformation of their industry into a geo-engineering, materials and eco-system creating industry.
In any case, we hope that during the coming week the high level information embargo will end and concrete good news will become available.

On the 40th anniversary of the famous 'Blue Marble' photograph taken of Earth from space, Planetary Collective presents a short film documenting astronauts' life-changing stories of seeing the Earth from the outside -- a perspective-altering experience often described as the Overview Effect.
The Overview Effect, first described by author Frank White in 1987, is an experience that transforms astronauts' perspective of the planet and mankind's place upon it. Common features of the experience are a feeling of awe for the planet, a profound understanding of the interconnection of all life, and a renewed sense of responsibility for taking care of the environment.
'Overview' is a short film that explores this phenomenon through interviews with five astronauts who have experienced the Overview Effect. The film also features insights from commentators and thinkers on the wider implications and importance of this understanding for society, and our relationship to the environment.

From RTS 1-9-13… “From Dark to Light: Change is Here”
by kauilapele
This article came out today, from D, at Removing the Shackles. I felt particularly UPlifted (ascended) reading it, as I sensed the inner validation, from her, to me.
That's Higher Discernment, I suppose. See how it fits with Yours (Higher Discernment, that is).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
From Dark to Light: Change is Here
Change is something that many people dread. Even if their current situation is miserable, there are many many people who would choose to stay where they are rather than venture outside the intolerable NOW that they live in. That is part of our programming, part of the brainwashing instilled into us to create the fear of change and the fear of the unknown.
...the fear of FREEDOM.
The energy right now is changing- has changed. For some it is a subtle thing that they cannot quite put their finger on, and for some it is a clarion call that they can feel right down to their very core being. This change of energy is flowing in a way that even the most hardened sceptic must admit that they feel it- they may not understand or comprehend it, they may not SEE it with their eyes, or HEAR it with their ears, they may not FEEL it beneath their feet... but on some level they do KNOW it's there.
Right now we are on the very cusp of CHANGE. We are standing on the highest pinnacle of the highest mountain over looking all that surrounds us, and we can see EVERYTHING before us and behind us and to either side. We must look at everything before we can decide which direction we want to travel.
The changes that are about to happen will be extreme. They will not be slight things that you might miss if you blink at the wrong time. They will not be a subtle change from grey to a slightly lighter shade of grey. They will be ALL ENCOMPASSING changes. From dark to light. Black to White, and every contrast of colour and texture in between.
There is that wonderful expression that it's always darkest before the dawn and that is exactly what we are experiencing RIGHT NOW. Going from a brightly lit room into the sun light isn't all that noticeable- heck, if you didn't see the door you walked through to get outside you might not even notice the difference. Not much of a change. Now, if you walk out of a darkened muffled room into the blazing sunshine of a perfect afternoon..... THEN you would notice. You couldn't not notice!!! How much more do you appreciate the glorious sunshine than when it dawns after weeks of rainy grey?
Change. From darkness to dawn. Miserable dark and dismal grey ominous sky to brilliant crystalline blue sky that is radiant in the light of the sun.
Change.
Many people know that the biggest change in history is about to happen. Many of us thought we knew what was going to happen. Thought that the steps in the process were well laid out and ready to roll any moment. What we did not understand is that the process must roll out completely.
Complete Change.
NESARA is about to be announced. Peace & Prosperity is at hand. But it is far more than the NESARA that we hoped for. It is far more Peace & Prosperity than we ever dreamed of. Yes, it is time for Humanity to recognize that they are FREE. It is time for the Removing of our Shackles.
They are unlocked- all we have to do is shake them off and walk away.
The announcements haven't been delayed. The new system hasn't been delayed. It was waiting for the RIGHT TIME.
THIS TIME has been long awaited by many who have been working from behind the scenes for exactly THIS MOMENT. Everything that has been put in place has been done so, knowing that the freedom of humanity is not something to be earned, but our absolute Right. OUR INALIENABLE RIGHTS can not be bought or sold, traded or stolen. No Government, No Institution, No Religion, No Person, No Thing can take these things from us. We were turned into Strawmen Corporations because even the POWERS THAT WERE KNEW that we, ourselves as HUMANS cannot be bought or sold, traded or stolen.
We ARE FREE.
When you recognize that ALL the systems that have been set up and created by the Powers That Were are part of the dark and stormy dismal grey prison, then you understand that those systems will not be used under the bright crystalline blue sunlit celestial ceiling.
It is about CHANGE.
It is about TO CHANGE.
You are on the highest summit. You can see everything if you look.
The storm clouds are behind you, so why not step forward into the sunshine?
BE the Change you wish to see in the World.
Are you READY?

JUST IN: Evidence of Recent Starburst in the Milky Way Galactic Center |
|
| by Mitch Battros - Earth Changes Media
Researchers using the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) have captured new images of a ring of gas and dust seven light-years in diameter surrounding the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and of a neighboring cluster of extremely luminous young stars embedded in dust cocoons.
The nucleus of the Milky Way is inhabited by a black hole with 4 million times the mass of the Sun and is orbited by a large disk of gas and dust. The galactic center also hosts several exceptionally large star clusters containing some of the most luminous young stars in the galaxy, one of which is the Quintuplet Cluster. The combination of SOFIA's airborne telescope with the FORCAST camera produced the sharpest images of those regions ever obtained at mid-infrared wavelengths, allowing discernment of new clues about what is happening near the central black hole.
The images were obtained during SOFIA flights in 2011 with FORCAST (Faint Object InfrRed CAmera for the SOFIA Telescope) instrument built by a team with principal investigator Terry Herter of Cornell. FORCAST offers astronomers the ability to see the CNR and QC regions and other exotic cosmic features whose light is obscured by water vapor in Earth's atmosphere and interstellar dust clouds in the mid-plane of the Milky Way. Neither ground-based observatories on tall mountain peaks nor NASA's orbiting Hubble space Telescope can see them.

Maybe a little presumptuous of me, but I thought we could use a theme song (of sorts)!
Just a bit of light humor - hope you enjoy.
There are a few things in this article that I question, like the light chambers...
The Galactic Federation has put in place several holographic Beings in financial and governmental circles whose duties will ensure that everything keeps moving forward. Our goal is to maintain a degree of normalcy in your societies and to make it look as if nothing much is changing. You have reached a point where you are finally to see a divine intervention happen, which is destined to positively transform your reality and usher in a new epoch of peace, prosperity, and first contact!

6 Etznab, 6 Chen, 9 Eb
Selamat Balik! We return! Many events on your world are waiting for the right divine time for Heaven to give the formal go-ahead. We, too, are subject to this constraint. The Divine has reached a point where the decrees of the Creator require that a series of new change points be met. Until then, the dark is being held in check by special Seraphim assigned to this sacred task. As a result we are now busy conferring with our sacred associates on Earth and in Heaven to coordinate what comes next. We have been instructed to carry things out in a certain sequence to assure everyone that the next steps happen without delay. Our liaison personnel have contact all those involved on your world and ensured that a solid communications network exists between all parties. The dark is most frustrated with how little it is able to do and we intend to put them completely out of business at the moment of the selected launch point. The numerous arrests and procedures to hasten and smooth out the affects of the actual launch date are in place. The projected moment is very close. We are ready to act when this moment occurs, so be patient and know that all is ready!
Your planet is completing the preliminaries for a magnetic pole shift that will change your world from a dipolar realm to a true monopolar one. These changes will synchronize the energy fields of Inner Earth with the outer one. Gaia is most relieved that these transformations of her electrical, magnetic, and gravitational fields can happen soon, as they constitute the final preparations for the reunion of her outer and inner realms. Furthermore, these changes will allow the 5-D realm of Agartha to extend throughout the solar system. The strange developments recently witnessed throughout the solar system are simply signs of what is shortly to manifest as she returns to her former 5-D state. The Sun will also alter its color and the intensity of its energy. These changes signify that your solar system is preparing for her dimensional shift as she returns to take up her place in the multi-star system of Sirius. These changes were forecast by the Maya as well as a number of other calendar systems, such as that of ancient Egypt (the land of Kimi).
The Galactic Federation has put in place several holographic Beings in financial and governmental circles whose duties will ensure that everything keeps moving forward. Our goal is to maintain a degree of normalcy in your societies and to make it look as if nothing much is changing. This is intended to be a temporary façade, as in reality much has changed and is nearly ready to manifest. This is being done for the sake of stability because back in the 1990s, we learned that your world was unable to handle huge surprise events, or even big change on an incremental scale. We have therefore instituted a number of stopgap measures which will secure the appearance of normalcy and keep largely under wraps what is about to happen. Until we reach the launch point, know that a grand change is on the near horizon which will bloom naturally and organically when the magic moment arrives. An important aspect of all this is your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual changes which Heaven is now accelerating, as these need to synchronize globally for the next step to materialize.
The Agarthan Main Council and the Ascended Masters are coordinating the set of announcements which are to follow the initial ones made by by the new governance. These several broadcasts are to proclaim formally our benevolent presence and the nature of our mission. This is when the Ascended Masters will begin to educate you about your true spiritual and off-planet origins. Over the eons the dark concocted a set of deliberately false interpretations of the Ascended Masters' teachings and the time has come to correct these skewed notions and allow you to acquire certain essential, sacred truths. They will help you better comprehend the nature of physicality and its relationship to Heaven. You are approaching the moment for completing your metamorphosis into fully conscious Beings of Light by means of your individually tailored Light chambers, waiting for you in Agartha. This is the moment when you morph into being our true spiritual and physical Associates! It will be a moment of grand celebration and utter joy! And it is the start of your divinely bestowed project to bring everlasting peace to the Milky Way Galaxy!
Blessings! We are your Ascended Masters! Numerous wondrous events occurred since the time collapse of December. These massive shifts in your reality were the result of the blessed prophecies of the Creator and we are now set to expand upon them. The instructions to those who form the globe's many secret sacred societies include two major parts: the vast network of precious-metal depositories that lie at the core of your new financial system; and an ever-expanding number of nations which have formally signed on to the main treaty of Paris and the later codicil signed afterwards in Monaco. These documents are based upon agreements legally verified by international courts and by the globe's various ancient, indigenous councils. These councils of empowered Elders have sanctified the rise of new de jure governance, and these are ready to replace the present de facto regimes and thus begin a truly amazing new epoch for all humanity.
What lies ahead is the return of our spiritual and space families. The Agarthans are our Lemurian ancestors. Various large motherships from the star-nations that colonized Lemuria are ready to return their citizens to their original home worlds. Many of you were incarnated on this world to prepare humanity for its return to full consciousness. Now, with this done, your fully conscious selves are to return and help explain to your fellows what has just happened on Earth! The majority of us is to remain and mingle joyously with our counterparts in Lemuria and then together, spread across the solar system, lovingly forging a new star-nation. This gracious occasion is the start of the glories planned for us by the Creator. We are to remain as your mentors and lead you in Love and Light to the fulfillment of our sacred missions.
As you can see, much lies ahead for us all. We are ready to begin a new set of duties that are to produce a permanent peace for this galaxy and a special place in this Galactic Federation for your new star-nation. We are ecstatic about the fact that our many millennia of spiritual work are to be the precursor of a most magnificent mission. Humanity reunited is to forge the means for peace and, eventually, to become the prime meeting-place for many galaxies to discuss the carrying-out of the divine plan throughout this sector of physicality. Long ago, when each of us reached our point of enlightenment, we were assured that our special works were to lead to this most illustrious moment in our history. Blessing in the highest to Heaven and especially to humanity for overcoming all the obstacles set up by the dark!
Today we continued our discussion of what is happening across your world. Those who live and work on your world are manifesting the various events that we mention. You have reached a point where you are finally to see a divine intervention happen, which is destined to positively transform your reality and usher in a new epoch of peace, prosperity, and first contact! Know, dear Ones, that the countless Supply and never-ending Prosperity of Heaven are indeed Yours! So Be It! Selamat Gajun! Selamat Ja! (Sirian for Be One! and Be in Joy!)

Whilst this article is mainly about the discovery of super large black holes at the centre of some galaxies - which have challenged current scientific evolution models - it is really about the fact that we must keep an open mind about everything and never, ever "box" in our thoughts about anything!
Ten lords a leaping (off the fiscal cliff, out of the frying pan into the fire....)
That would have been some clarifying campaign speech from the president. From Steve Moore’s interview with John Boehner:
What stunned House Speaker John Boehner more than anything else during his prolonged closed-door budget negotiations with Barack Obama was this revelation: “At one point several weeks ago,” Mr. Boehner says, “the president said to me, ‘We don’t have a spending problem.’ “
I am talking to Mr. Boehner in his office on the second floor of the Capitol, 72 hours after the historic House vote to take America off the so-called fiscal cliff by making permanent the Bush tax cuts on most Americans, but also to raise taxes on high earners. In the interim, Mr. Boehner had been elected to serve his second term as speaker of the House. Throughout our hourlong conversation, as is his custom, he takes long drags on one cigarette after another.
…
The president’s insistence that Washington doesn’t have a spending problem, Mr. Boehner says, is predicated on the belief that massive federal deficits stem from what Mr. Obama called “a health-care problem.” Mr. Boehner says that after he recovered from his astonishment—”They blame all of the fiscal woes on our health-care system”—he replied: “Clearly we have a health-care problem, which is about to get worse with ObamaCare. But, Mr. President, we have a very serious spending problem.” He repeated this message so often, he says, that toward the end of the negotiations, the president became irritated and said: “I’m getting tired of hearing you say that.”
Sorry, Folks, We Don’t Just Have ‘A Spending Problem’
![]() Business Insider, St. Louis Fed Federal government spending (red) vs. tax revenue (blue) |
Yesterday, I pointed out how, in a stubborn attempt to avoid raising taxes on the richest 2% of Americans, the Republicans in Congress have essentially agreed to raise taxes on everyone.The Republicans have done this by refusing to accept President Obama’s attempt at a compromise, which preserves low tax rates
for 98% of the country while raising taxes modestly on the top 2%.
Well, you can’t assign blame to the formerly pragmatic and responsible Republican party without getting some flak.

But the future of the petition proposing to cut the pay of members of Congress to $75,000 a year for three years to cut the national deficit is uncertain, even if it has received 31,579 signatures since it was created on Christmas Day and as of the time this story was posted.
Two days after Christmas, President Barack Obama signed an executive order ending the pay freeze on federal workers, including representatives in the House and senators, effective Jan. 1, 2013 – the same day the U.S. government technically fell over the so-called fiscal cliff because Congress could not reach a legislative solution.
