Financial Collapse and World Government

Originally posted in 2008 (slightly edited)

Now that the financial collapse has gotten most people’s attention, it is time to consider the broader implications of the ongoing crash.

Although some people may still be inclined to think in terms of a mere recession or a cyclical economic downturn, more and more persons are thinking in terms of the severity of the Great Depression.

But even that comparison may not convey the true nature of the crisis confronting the world at this moment in history.

As an indication of the gravity of the crisis, Gordon Brown, prime minister of Great Britain, recently boasted that the scheme he has promoted and implemented has saved the world, or at least saved the world’s banking system. Although his remark was met with jeers and howls of ridicule by his political opponents, the mere fact that leading men of government would speak in terms of saving the world from a catastrophic collapse of the entire global financial system of things is significant in itself. After all, why would the world be imperiled by a mere economic recession?

But while politicians may boast of having saved the world from chaos, the truth is the financial collapse has only temporarily been staved off through the most extraordinary measures of intervention. Sober minds realize that the crisis management up to this point has only been a stopgap measure. The underlying structural issues that created the crash remain unresolved.

The real issue that is predominately occupying the leaders of the world has to do with determining what type of system is going to replace the present failed financial system. And what is becoming increasingly clear is that the financial crisis is being used as a pretext for implementing world government.

As an example of how the financial crisis is leading to a push for global governance, here is a quote from the Inter-Press News Service: “U.N. economists see the crisis as an opportunity to create a new international financial architecture that will make for more inclusive participation of developing countries.”

Although society as a whole has been conditioned to recoil at the mere suggestion of the existence of any sort of conspiracy to destroy the nation-state system and establish a sovereign world government, the fact is, a form of supranational government has been a reality for many decades.

The British Empire of the Victorian era aspired to be a world government and at one time London controlled fully one quarter of the Earth’s surface and population – no small feat for the comparatively tiny island kingdom. But as the United States began to emerge as the leading world power at the close of the 19th century the Lords of London realized that the days of their formal colonial empire were numbered. At that time a scheme was hatched, which was later called the open conspiracy, with the intent of subverting and ultimately destroying the United States of America and the entire nation-state system and implementing a non-democratic world government. At the conclusion of the First World War the first definitive step was taken toward establishing world government. Under the guise of preventing war the first international body was formed called the League of Nations. But much to the chagrin if its promoters the United States Senate refused join the League and it went out of existence at the outbreak of the Second World War.

But then the United Nations emerged from WWII and was positioned to save the world from nuclear annihilation during the Cold War. Along with the UN, super-national banks were also established. The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) were created at the same time the UN came on the scene. These two agencies have served as the means to impoverish and crush developing nations and prevent them from developing along the lines of the American model.

Then in 1973 President Nixon abandoned the Breton Woods fixed rate exchange system that was set up in the aftermath of the Second World War. As a result of that the value of the US dollar came under the control of private financial interests and was no longer exclusively controlled by the government of its issuance.

Now after 35 years of the floating exchange rate system and the development of the computer-driven Forex and derivatives markets, that monetarist system has reached its end and is in the final stages of disintegration. The issues that are now most prominent before the leaders of this world concern the type of financial and economic systems that will be put in place.

Just as the league of Nations came into existence in the aftermath of the catastrophe known as World War I and the cause of world government was also advanced in the wake of the calamity of World War II, so it is that the present international financial crisis, along with the exaggerated threats of environmental collapse and global terrorism, are being used as a pretext for a renewed push for global governance. All that remains is for the United States to be taken down.

To that end, since the collapse of the Wall Street investment bank model last summer the central bank of the United States and the US Treasury have foolishly committed the resources of entire nation, even the resources of yet-unborn generations, pledging trillions to bailing out the bankers’ blown out, quadrillion dollar derivatives bubble. But flooding the world with trillions of dollars may forestall the derivatives collapse but it will sooner or later, inevitably, ignite a hyperinflationary firestorm, destroying the dollar and relegating the United States to the status of the Third World nation.

Apparently that is the intention of the one-worlders.

While the incoming Barak Obama administration has adopted the slogan of “yes we can,” the veiled warnings coming from London are ‘don’t even think about it.’ That is, don’t think about protectionism. But in view of the undeniable fact that the banker’s imploding financial bubble has brought the world to the brink of catastrophe, would it not be prudent and moral for the nations to take steps to protect themselves from the rapaciousness of the financiers, which some identify as the Illuminati?

But the predicament is, any move of the new American administration, no matter how tentative, towards an FDR-type response to the financial crisis involving any sort of protectionist measures or regulation of the financiers will provoke a violent reaction. As it stands presently the Lords of London have already unleashed the dogs of war and are deploying their terrorist cells and activating anarchist assets in numerous countries around the world in order to create failed states, destabilization, chaos, political paralysis and war; inflaming the so-called arc of crisis, in order to break up any tendency towards a collaboration of nations to neutralize the power of the financier oligarchy.

We may expect more of the same with increasing intensity in the coming year. At this critical stage anything is possible. Conditions are such that the assassination of President Obama is a distinct possibility. Or a terrorist attack using weapons of mass destruction is considered a likely possibility within the next five years, perhaps much sooner – depending on Jehovah’s timetable.

As the apostle Paul once wrote, “The scene of this world is changing.” How true that is! As men desperately try to patch up a doomed and dying system, the greatest changes lay just ahead; changes that will terrify people; changes that will force a reluctant world to face the paramount issue of whether to continue to support human schemes of rulership or accept the incoming kingdom of Jehovah’s Christ. 

The hour of the decision is rapidly approaching.

A few saying that will help clarify it all I think...

“Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value – zero”

“The art of medicine consists in amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.”

“Judge a man by his questions rather than by his answers”

“It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong”

“Every man is guilty of all the good he didn’t do”
