(cont)With a world of impoverished people at their command, they can hire armies to work their will in the world. With the political agreements between the US, Canada and Mexico...the armies of Mexico can suppress popular unrest in the United States...This is the not so well hidden cost of the internationalist impetus.

Joseph Stiglitz gave us inside scoop on what the IMF and World Bank were up to...

The ''world economic system'' today is just the instrument of our financial elites. Far more so than the KKK, it is an "Invisible Empire"...wherein things are run through a paper money system where exchange rates are manipulated to the benefit of the insiders and their accomplices...for instance, both the yen and the yuan were kept artificially low to the benefit of investors in Japan and then China, respectively. Ihe benefits that accrued to the rentier classes came at the expense of the American working and middle classes.

Internationalism is being pushed for its own sake, but as a system of economic control of the peoples of this earth. The Soviets divided production of elements of finished goods among several republics so that none of them could ''go it alone.'' In a sense this is what is being done by their successors... we saw that in the first Gulf War when key missile parts were only manufactured by Japan--and in Japan they were considering not supplying them.

This new economic system is not something that has evolved in any kind of putative free market...it was created by international elites so as to have complete control of the world economically and can then proceed with political unification. cont.

In my opinion I think the World is at a crossroads and eventually will move in one of two directions. Right now the World is moving in 2 directions simultaneously and its being torn apart because the 2 directions are not compatible! For example in one direction the World is as it always was, nationalistic in orientation and business is conducted in that way. The new direction, Global Economics; if the World continues in this direction it will eventually dissolve nationalistic motives and nations as well, there will be no United States, China or Russia in the traditional sense, only economic interest and Brand names. With anyone being able to trade and invest in any market, people from all over the World will be more interested in a return on their investments than national interest. If someone from anywhere in the World has invested heavy in a Chinese company, that investor will want that Chinese company to do well and not fail because its home nation is having issues with China. In many ways Global Economic interest hae already trumped national interest. I don''t think the 2 can co-exist!

And to ready ourselves for a war with China
we are ever improving our ability to break down
bedroom doors, cart off Iraqis-of-intreast,
cordon off areas, retrieve body parts and win
hearts and minds by shaking the hands of
kids whose parents want us dead.

This should really ready us for a 5-million
man army which just might be better equiped
than to come at us with machine-gun-mounted
Toyota pickup trucks.

Behind all three main Demopublican candidates stands the trillions that the international bankers have "created out of nothing"...and, if they do collapse the FED Ponzi scheme, you can rest assured that the ''gold standard'' they institute, having first kept gold artificially low, bought up mining assets and stolen gold lands from sovereign nations (such as those Western gold lands stolen with the able assistance of Senator Dianne Feinstein)and seen governments sell gold cheaply before the great price rise...letting it fall into the hands of the peculators for their profit...and having seen ''al Qaeda'' take responsiblity for the magical collapse of WTC Building 7, which housed the evidence for the conspiracy against the international banks for their collusion in keeping the price of gold low in the case brought by mine owners....selling gold that they did not own...gold that did not exist in the markets to keep the price low...while they bought gold stock at depressed prices.

And, when Israel transferred US technology to China, you can bet it was for some consideration on the economic front...just as when Israel transferred secrets gleaned from their spy, the traitor Jonathan Pollard, to Russia...

How much of the $100-plus billion in Taiwanese investment on the mainland belongs to non-Taiwanese Euro-American financial atake holders? As surely as you find a Rothschild behind Khodorkovsky and his Yukos thievings, you will Western interests benefiting from this as well.

And, when the Clintons gave the keys to Los Alamos and the Canal Zone to the Red Chinese... you can rest assured it wasn''t for a few measly campaign contributions...it was in exchange for sweated cut-rate labour that could low-ball any working class in the world.

While the worthless Pelosi is squeaking "Free Tibet", her Congress is promoting more and more trade with the People''s Republic of China. We have tens of billions in direct investment...Note that before the war in the Pacific, the British Empire was investing heavily in Japan--to the detriment of itself, particularly India and it textile industry--and this at a time when the Pound Sterling was being kept artificially high and there was great want among the British working classes. Policy was made for the sake of the coupon-clipping rentier classes who benefited from an over-priced pound.

While we may not be on a gold standard...the same forces are at work today.

Nixon did the same finger gesture as Mr. Ying-jeou too.

The highlighted quote can be said of any country''s inhabitants regarding their country too.
