New World Order for Dummies

New World Order for Dummies

Understanding your future with the New World Order

By Sergey Baranov
(INTELLIHUB) —Many things have been written by researchers, authors, activists and other individuals with regards to an oppressive global regime which is now unfolding in front of our eyes after being long in the making.
As the result of their work, many more have awakened to the sinister agenda created and implemented by the powers that be. This agenda has many faces and many names, not all of which are familiar to the average Joe. What do you think of when you hear about the New World Order?
At the very low level of political awareness the first thing you would think of is a conspiracy theory. But having researched and understood  it in depth, you would be speaking against it fearlessly, understanding that nothing can be scarier than living under a fascist global regime, which this time around will be on steroids.
You would see dark gathering clouds naturally predicting the coming political storm. You would see the societal move towards global poverty, oppression and totalitarianism in which there is no place for personal freedom. You would recognize the arms of the evil octopus wearing the masks of Agenda 21, Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP), Eugenics, Transhumanism, and Codex Alimentarius, to name just a few.
These are the code names and different faces of the same agenda to harness humanity. These names might appear disconnected and even abstract, but only to those who aren’t aware and informed. I would encourage you to do your own research into this subject but in the meantime I would like to offer you a synopsis made of a simple words which will help you to understand what the New World Order means to you.
In any totalitarian system of control, there is zero tolerance for individuality, self-expression, creativity and other forms of self-empowerment. Realizing one’s self as a cosmic consciousness which was fortunate enough to receive a human body to experience life, would naturally resist any form of tyranny and enslavement.
Carrying goodness at heart, such a person would recognize evil when he or she sees its expression. Anything which would limit such a person’s freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of travel and other natural freedoms with which each person is born into this world, would appear as a harmful and negative influence in a person’s life – a disease for which a cure must be found.
Accepting tyranny on one’s soul would be same as accepting cancer on one’s body. Both must be resisted since both are deadly. Understanding that would be enough to wake up to one’s humanness, defending the right to exist and enjoy a healthy social and natural environment, both of which are now under attack.
If the current trend develops, we will quickly find our lives diminished to a biological existence similar to that of an ant; a daily race in the search of the food under the constant threat of being smashed by the boot of tyranny. So what is New World Order?
Well, in reality it’s the same old world order – a merger of corporate power and state, but this time around scientifically and technologically enhanced and empowered. It is the same old system of control run by the golden rule – those who have the gold rule. NWO is a Hitlerian dream coming true, turning our lives into a nightmare.

Alex Stanczyk: Large Swiss Gold Refiners Cannot Source Metal Easily

Jason Burack of Wall St for Main St was able to interview Alex Stanczyk, who is Chief Market Strategist at Anglo-Far Easthttp://www.afecustodial.com/.
Alex is in charge of research at the firm and he extensively studies physical supply/demand fundamentals for gold and silver as well as studies geopolitical changes to see which countries are best for storing physical metal in vaults for his firm’s institutional, hedge funds and high net worth individual and high net worth family (office) clients.
During this 40+ minute interview, Jason and Alex go in depth on the fundamentals for physical gold and if anything significant in supply or demand has changed. Alex talks about physical demand increasing in China along with demand from India.Alex then talks quite a bit about his trip to a very large Swiss gold refinery with Jim Rickards to ask the refiners how easily they can secure scrap gold, dore bars from miners, metal from GLD, etc. Refiners sit right in the middle of the value chain and see real time supply/demand better than anyone. This is must listen stuff!

Ukraine faces default as Russia stalls

ukraine kiev protests Ukraine's capital Kiev was calmer Friday after two days of violent anti-government protests left at least 78 people dead.
 

Ukraine's plans to tap Russia for $2 billion in emergency funding have fallen apart, leaving the country sliding towards economic disaster.

Russia said earlier this week it was ready to buy Ukrainian government bonds -- part of a $15 billion financial aid package agreed in December -- but appears to have got cold feet as anti-government protests escalated. The Ukrainian finance ministry canceled the planned bond sale late Thursday.
At least 78 people died in clashes between protestors and security forces over the past two days.
"It was Russia that refused to buy the bonds because Moscow said [the president] did not have control in his country," said Anders Aslund, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics.
Ukraine desperately needs the cash because it has to repay as much as $13 billion in debt this year.
Three months of political turmoil have left the country dangerously short of the foreign currency reserves it needs to service its debts and pay for imports, including natural gas. It now faces a real risk of default, which would plunge the ailing economy even deeper into the mire.
Related: Deal signed to end Ukraine crisis
The protests were sparked by President Viktor Yanukovych's decision in late November to strengthen economic ties with Russia and spurn a far-reaching trade deal with the European Union.
Moscow stumped up $3 billion in December but further payments have been put on hold due to the political uncertainty.
Yanukovych and opposition leaders said Friday they had reached a political deal, including early presidential elections and constitutional reforms, but it remains unclear whether this will end the crisis and unlock financial support.
Ukraine is due to repay about $3 billion to the International Monetary Fund in the first half of this year.
Related: I'm Ukrainian -- and proud
"Defaulting on this debt would mean shattering Ukraine's image as an investment destination, scaring away investors and effectively shutting down capital markets for Ukraine," said Lilit Gevorgyan, a senior economist at IHS Global Insight.
The IMF is one of the few organizations that would be willing to provide an aid package to Ukraine, though it would come with tough reforms attached.
Rating agency S&P lowered its rating on Ukraine Friday to CCC, saying it believed Ukraine would default within 12 months "in the absence of significantly favorable changes in circumstances, which we do not anticipate."
According to the IMF, Ukraine has been in a recession since mid-2012. Subsidizing natural gas prices for residents has put a severe strain on the country's finances.

The Ukrainian currency has fallen by roughly 8.5% versus the U.S. dollar since the start of the year.
Earlier this month, Ukraine imposed restrictions on the movement of money out of the country to try to stabilize the hrvynia. To top of page

Stock Market Crash: Another Look


Baltimore's people of the woods: Inside the hidden homeless camps made of milk crates, wooden doors and tarps on the outskirts of town

  • Photographer Ben Marcin's series 'The Camps' captures makeshift settlements near railway lines, gas stations, Walmarts and bridges
  • He said many of Baltimore's homeless feel safer in the woods than in shelters
  • While most homes are made from tarps, some more elaborate constructions use milk crates and wooden doors
By Daily Mail Reporter

A sheet of plastic laid over a clothesline. A mini-fortress of milk crates stacked under a tree. A thin mattress on a flimsy crate lying in a dark tunnel.
On the edge of Baltimore's woodlands, dozens of the city's transients live in makeshift homes which they consider safer than homeless shelters.
Photographer Ben Marcin has captured some of the shanties in his thought-provoking photo essay, 'The Camps', documenting the struggle, loneliness and ingenuity of Maryland's people of the woods.

Similar to his Last House Standing series which captured lonely rowhouses around the Mid-Atlantic, Marcin shot the shanties around Baltimore without their inhabitants to add to the 'mystery'.
Marcin said he first stumbled upon the homeless dwellings as he hiked through the woods bordering the city during hunting season.
 
When he saw a 'mini-fortress' made of milk crates just yards from a major thoroughfare, Marcin began searching for other transients 'living off the grid'.
Most were based near railroad tracks, Walmarts, gas stations, and liquor stores.

'I have always been interested in the unique places people live in, particularly where there exists an element of defiance or desperation, or both. In these situations, a house can often reflect the dilemma of its owner. In the case of the hobo camps, this reflection is quite pronounced for obvious reasons,' he told The Atlantic Cities.
'A sheet of plastic laid out over a clothesline may be the last stand for somebody who has either been rejected by society or who has refused to conform to whatever rules are being imposed on them.
'Several camp people I talked to said they wouldn't relocate into one of the City's shelters because they were afraid of being assaulted or having belongings stolen.'

Marcin said about year after finishing the project, he returned to the woods to find all the camps were gone. One had burned to the ground, some had been bulldozed, while others moved to different locations.
'My guess is that these, too, will not be around for long,' he said.

More Americans use food stamps: Report

obama-food-stamp-card1

US citizens’ dependency on food stamps is at an all-time high with one in seven Americans using them, according to studies published recently.
The US Department of Agriculture said participation in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) has increased over the past two years, Press TV reported.
“Towards the end of the month, when we’ve paid all the bills, and we don’t have any food, the food stamps really come in handy,” Rhonda Moore, a food stamp recipient, said.
US President Barack Obama signed a farm bill into law that would cut the food stamp program by about $9 billion over the next ten years.
The law would cut about $900 million a year from the SNAP, on which almost 47 million Americans rely to afford food.
Children and the elderly, who have so far become dependent on food stamps, cannot use these services anymore.
“You’re seeing much more strain on food banks, food pantries, these types of organizations that volunteer to provide meals for people,” economic analyst Edward Spannaus told Press TV.
“Enormous consequences for families that were dependent on this, it’s a big cut.”
Although corporate profits have been on the rise, the income of majority of working Americans, who use food stamps the most, have continued to decline.
Food stamp fraud is also on the rise costing Americans hundreds of millions of dollars a year, but it’s often the underprivileged who are often punished.
The US Department of Agriculture says that food-stamp fraud cost taxpayers $750 million only in 2011.
New statistics also show a rise in food stamps among the US military, which has been rising steadily since the beginning of the recession in 2008.
Approximately $104 million worth of food stamps was redeemed at military commissaries in the fiscal year which ended Sept. 30.

US vs China: Is This The New Cold War? Tensions… Warnings…

US v China: is this the new cold war?
The new era of military competition in the Pacific will become the defining geopolitical contest of the 21st century
To the list of industries now dominated by China, there is one surprising new entry: Miss World. Beauty contests were banned in China by Mao Zedong as one of the worst forms of western decadence but their bland internationalism appeals to modern China’s desire to be included. Of the last 10 Miss World pageants, five have been held at the seaside resort of Sanya, on subtropical Hainan island, off China’s south coast. While the Miss World show is in town, the swimsuit photo shoots take place across the road, at the Sheraton Sanya Resort, which looks out on to the white sands of Yalong Bay, a crescent-shaped cove lined with palm trees. With a Ritz-Carlton on one side and a Marriott on the other, Yalong Bay is a transplant of multi­national tourism on China’s southernmost point. The resort has become hugely ­popular with prosperous Chinese families and on the day I visited, the hotel was hosting a corporate retreat for the Chinese subsidiary of Syngenta, the Switzerland-based company which sells genetically modified seeds. The hundred or so Chinese employees spent the afternoon playing games on the beach. As they enjoyed themselves, they barely looked up when a Chinese Type 054 frigate sailed casually across the bay, in plain view of the tourists. Yalong Bay, it turns out, has a double life. The brand-name hotels occupy only one half of the beach; at the other end lies China’s newest and most sophisticated naval base….

China denounces Barack Obama’s meeting with Dalai Lama
Beijing says White House meeting is ‘gross interference in Chinese politics’ and will damage China-US relations
Barack Obama met the Dalai Lama at the White House on Friday, despite objections from China, which has warned that the meeting would inflict grave damage on Sino-American relations.
The Tibetan spiritual leader is in the US on a speaking tour. The White House did not announce the meeting until late on Thursday, prompting a gruff complaint from Beijing, in what has become something of a diplomatic ritual whenever Obama meets the exiled Buddhist monk.
The two Nobel laureates spent an hour in the White House’s Map Room, a step down in prestige from the Oval Office, where the president traditionally meets foreign heads of state. The meeting was closed to reporters.
China accused Obama of letting the Dalai Lama use the White House as a podium to promote anti-Chinese activities. Hua Chunying, a spokeswoman for China’s foreign ministry, said before the meeting that it was “a gross interference in China’s domestic politics” and “a severe violation of the principles of international relations. It will inflict grave damages upon the China-US relationship”.

Gold And Silver – All Eyes On Gold And China When Silver Could Be The Tipping Point.

incense -  [noun] an aromatic substance acquired from certain resinous trees with 
aromatic biotic materials which release fragrant smoke when burned.  The odor 
produced from smoke is not the incense, but the substance that is burned.
Fundamentals for gold and silver have become the incense of reality for Westerners.  The
primary focus is on how many tonnes of gold China has been importing for the past many
years, the depletion of available stocks from the central bankers 
straw men, aka the LMBA
and COMEX, the number of coins sold by various governments to the public, [a relative
drop in the bucket, but its reporting has a sensation factor], etc, etc.
We address this via charts as the best source for market pricing information, particularly
citing an example in silver.  As a note to anyone not overly familiar with charts, or even
turned off by them for lack of understanding or appreciation, we can tell you that the
markets are full of logic, and we use charts as a reference to explain how any market will
develop in a logical way, [never random for those who mistakenly believe markets are
such], and how that logic can be put to profitable use.
All of the collective fundamental factors are important, and they are the underpinning for
the future performance of the PMs, [Precious Metals].  They are the substance, but the
smoke they are producing is clouding the 
sense part of the incense.  Westerners see all the
smoke and expect a hand-to-eye coordinated effect in the markets, in the form of higher
prices, and therein lies the rub.
For Westerners, and truest of Americans, gold is all about its price.  Price, price, price.
“What is the price of gold, today?”  “Where is today’s price relative to the highs of a few
years ago?”  Then there is the ultimate question, “
When are gold and silver going to take
off?”
Gold, in particular, does not have the same sense of importance for Westerners as it does
for Easterners, mainly China, India, Turkey, parts of the Middle East.  The elites, born
from the Rothschild dynasty, through their central banks have manipulated not only the
price of gold, but also the minds of the masses as they [do not] realte to gold.
Once the moneychangers, [we use various names, but they all reflect back to the always
clandestine Rothschild-created group that has been in control of the Western world money
supply, and by extension, Western governments], once these moneychangers bankrupted
and gained control of the United States, they directed the American proxy-puppetmeister,
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, to shut down the banking system and reopen it under total
control of the elites.
What came next?  The deceitful scheme of confiscating gold from Americans, addressed
in previous Commentaries, [See NWO "Problem-Reaction" Ploy, paragraphs 1 - 4, and
13 - 15, as a recent example].  Consequently, the central bankers removed gold from the
public both physically and psychologically.  Most Americans alive today have never even
held or touched a gold coin, so it has no value as a money-related substance.  “Mission
Accomplished” for the elites in ridding its only competition to its paper fiat Ponzi scheme.
For Easterners, gold has always been a part of their lives, and they respect PMs as a store
of value when all else fails.  The price of gold for Easterners?  It does not matter.  Owning
it is all that counts, and they keep buying and holding gold 
irrespective of price.  Families
are known to keep it for generations.
The point to be made is Western focus is on the smoke produced by the incense, and that,
in turn, affects the common sense in recognizing the importance of owning, holding, and
the ongoing acquisition of PMs, not because of its price, but for its historical relevance as
the most effective antidote to fiat currencies, every one of which 
has totally failed.
The foreign-owned Federal Reserve central bank issues fiat Federal Reserve Notes, [FRN],
which the Fed deceitfully calls “dollars.  FRN are commercial 
debt instruments, in law.  If
you know nothing else about money, know this:  
debt can never be money, yet Americans,
indeed the world, has been tricked into the 
belief that FRN are money.  A belief about
reality does not mean the 
belief is true.
It is difficult to stay on point when there has been so much deception by the elites over
every aspect of life in the Western world.  Making one point, the importance of gold for
example, has so much deceptive background about which few Americans are aware, some
of what if said does not make sense unless and until one becomes aware of the deception
that has been ongoing, not just recently, but since the time when America gained, [what
almost all do not know was temporary] independence.
If more people realized the importance of owning physical gold and silver, relative to
holding worthless fiat paper, they would be better off, but that is not going to happen.
Even within the PM community, the focus is on how much one paid for their gold and
or silver, relative to what the price is today.
The price is where it is today because it has been purposefully suppressed by Western
central bankers to keep the “dollar” alive as the world’s reserve currency.  Destroy that,
and gold and silver do, which is why PM are so despised by central banks, competing
against their paper enslavement scheme, and the Western banking system collapses.
The central bankers will not allow that to happen until they have destroyed every
fiat currency, first, and along with that destruction, the “value” of whatever people
hold in paper form: cash, stocks, bonds, pensions, etc.  It is in process of happening
and has been for decades.  Right now, events are leading up to the final phase of the
dollar to undergo severe devaluation.
People are focusing on the price of PMs, treating gold and silver as vehicles for
increasing in 
price relative to their cost of purchase.  It is the reason for buying and
holding gold and silver that matters.  As a consequence, attention is paid to what
people 
think should happen to the price of gold and silver, and not on the reality of
what the artificially suppressed market is showing.
For that reality, we turn to the charts because the very legitimate fundamentals that
will ultimately drive the price of gold and silver are not a barometer for the 
timing of
any future price increases.  Plain and simple, gold and silver will not increase in price
until the 
socialist/fascist central planners and their puppet governments have
confiscated as much wealth as possible from the masses, leaving many destitute.
Know this:  It does not matter what you pay/paid for owning physical gold and silver.
Price is temporary; physical is permanent.
We caught an early portion of the rally in silver and gold but exited prior to the larger
gains of the past week, or so.  It has been frustrating to be on the sidelines, but it never
pays to “chase” a market.  The results from Trade Recommendations for February have
been great, so far, and none this month’s recommendations were derived from trying to
catch a rally already underway, as in gold and silver.
No matter what phase a market is in, there will always be set-up opportunities that
offer limited risk and a higher probability for a successful outcome, and that will also
happen for gold and silver.  As ongoing buyers of the physical, we are not too concerned
about missing a rally or two in a down trending paper market.  It is critical to know that
one should always make decisions about the reality of a current market and not what one
may 
think will happen in any given market.
The weekly gold chart is a simple one.  A red flag is in effect based on the increased
volume and the very small weekly range that resulted.  The message from the market
for this specific situation is that the increased effort on the part of buyers was met,
even overcome, by sellers who prevented buyers from extending the range more to
the upside.  The daily shows more detail.
GC W 22 Feb 14
Charts are replete with information about past activity and how it can possibly influence
present activity.  The rectangular box on the left shows where price declined quickly from
the 1360 level down to the 1320 area.  [Resistance should always be considered as an area
and not just a specific price.]  The current rally in gold stopped, so far, at the 1330 area.
There are two important considerations to keep in mind.  The upper channel line is a
supply line that indicates when a market is in an overbought situation.  What many fail
to appreciate is that overbought can become more overbought, so it is not a reason, by
itself, for making a trade decision.
The other aspect is the sharp increase in volume, which happened to occur at the
overbought supply line at the same time.  Whenever there is a sharp increase in volume,
pay attention.  It is the earmark of “smart money” stepping up activity.  Smart money
buys low, sells high.  That is axiomatic.
Up until last Tuesday, the high volume day, gold made 12 successive higher lows.  The
increase in volume came at the high.  Would you surmise smart money was buying or
selling at that high day?  The logic, to which we referenced earlier for those not too
familiar with charts as we use them, would say smart money was selling.
Consider the facts taken directly from the chart.  Price was in an area where it declined
previously, last October, early November 2013.  Price was also at an overbought condition,
converging with these other two factual observations, as volume had a sharp increase.  A
logical conclusion can be drawn from those 
facts, [vs opinions which can be different
from one person to another].
Will a correction develop soon, next week, based upon this information?  We do not know,
nor is it important to know what 
may happen, in advance.  We have formulated an idea on
what the market may do, but we have to wait and see if the market 
confirms the idea.
If it does confirm a correction is imminent, the next step is to prepare for an opportunity
to possibly be a buyer.  
This approach to the market eliminates guesswork or having to
make a prediction.  Time will tell, starting next week.  If the market rallies more, instead,
we wait again for another opportunity that will develop.  Markets do not disappoint.
GC D 22 feb 14
There is a growing sense that silver, so often overshadowed by gold, may be the key for
when the PM begin to rally in earnest.  For all the severe shortage of physical silver and
mining issues for more supply, etc, the chart does not reflect any sense of urgency that
silver is about to launch a major rally.
The issue of bearish spacing still exists, and the current rally is at the 50% area from the
last swing high to low.  Whenever a market does not rally past a half-way point, it is a
general indication of overall weakness, emphasis on general.
Silver shows the same sharp volume increase and very small weekly range, relative to
the effort expended.  It is the daily that shows how charts show the way in which a
market provides all the information one needs to make an informed trading decision.
SI W 22 Feb 14
People focus their attention on current market activity, even to the extent of using intra
day charts as a reference for decision-making.  There is too much “noise” from an intra
day chart to be consistent.  They are not the most reliable points of reference.  It is
always better to start with the higher time frames and work down.
The weekly chart already indicated a red flag alert from the high volume and small range
bar.  We will start with that bar, “B” on the chart, but we see that specific day as a point
of culmination, based upon past market activity.  Just as with gold, silver had a failed
rally at “A,” see arrow.
We can see the market declined from that high, but what makes that high of greater
importance is seeing how the market closed on 30 October.  There was a wide range
rally and strong close near the high.  Logically, one would expect upside follow through,
next day.  What happened instead?  Price gapped down, opening 
under the low of that
rally bar, the exact opposite of expectations.
Whenever the market does something opposite to obvious expectation, that is an
important message from the market itself! 
 Pay close attention when that happens.
The market failed to confirm the expectation.  This gives greater credence to that
area being resistance into the future.  When we noted that “B” related directly to “A,”
you would not have likely made that pertinent observation.
Further, “A” relates back to “C,” which we just realized was not marked on the chart.
“C” is the last failed rally in the middle of September, where there was a very wide
range bar, followed by  a small bar, stopping the rally, and price sold off sharply, next
trading day.
When you see how “C” acted, it puts “A” into a context that is less surprising.  It is the
combination of “C,” “A,” and the volume spike that strongly suggests “B” may also
turn into a decline.  By itself, “B” is not as strong a case for a potential reaction as when
a “story” is developed from previous developed market activity.
While all of the focus is primarily on gold, silver is not in as relatively as strong a position
as gold, and it may be a truer roadmap for when the eventual bull market emerges, at
some as yet unknown point in the future.  Whenever that rally starts, it is almost certain
that the first signs will come from the charts, as described.
Stay tuned.
