Karen Hudes zegt dat tenminste 60 centrale banken wereldwijd gelieerd aan de <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bis.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">BIS<\/a> en\/of de <a href=\"http:\/\/www.federalreserve.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">FED<\/a> in en in corrupt zijn en aangepakt moeten worden door de internationale gemeenschap. Deze banken maken bewust en doelmatig complete samenlevingen kapot door ze schulden op te dwingen. Deze schulden ontstaan doordat overheden geld lenen bij deze centrale banken tegen rentetarieven van 4 procent en meer. De rente die berekend wordt moeten overheden vorderen van hun bevolking via belastingen, hoe meer leningen, hoe meer rente, hoe meer belastingen of andere methoden om de begrotingen rond te breien.<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=4hgA9j-4dB0<\/p>\n<p>Volgens Hudes en vele economen is het compleet idioot dat overheden bij deze banken geld lenen tegen woekerrentes omdat elke soevereine staat zelf het recht heeft om geld te drukken en in omloop te brengen. Het geld dat een soevereine staat zou drukken wordt niet belast met rente waardoor de geldstroom gelijk blijft ( er hoeft niet telkens nieuw geld bij om de rentes te kunnen voldoen ) en dus veel beter controleerbaar waardoor die geldstroom gedienstig zal zijn aan de samenleving die dit geld drukt. Geld is niet meer dan een middel om een samenleving soepel te laten verlopen. De manier waarop centrale banken geld maken en in omloop brengen maakt samenlevingen kapot en levert enkel winst op voor de priv\u00e9 eigenaren van die banken. Dienstigheid staat NIET in het vocabulaire van deze banken!<\/p>\n<p>Karen Hudes gaat verder&#8230;.In Amerika bijvoorbeeld zie je dat staten met argusogen kijken naar de bank van <a href=\"http:\/\/banknd.nd.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">Noord Dakota<\/a>. Dat is een echte staatsbank die zelf haar eigen geld drukt en in omloop brengt. Noord Dakota gaat als een speer en inmiddels hebben 11 andere staten aangekondigd serieus te overwegen ook een eigen staatsbank te beginnen. Dan over het goud verhaalt Karen Hudes. Er zou een tekort zijn aan goud op deze wereld, je reinste onzin weet ze te vertellen. In de bank van Hawai ligt 170.000 ton aan goud opgeslagen, dat is meer dan de financi\u00eble wereld, media en overheden ons willen doen geloven. Er is goud zat dus koop geen goud als belegging want je zou wel eens bedrogen uit kunnen komen.<\/p>\n<p>De goudstandaard is voor Hudes dan ook zeker niet heilig. Geld moet waarde vertegenwoordigen, echte waarde, tastbare waarde, zolang die waarde tegenover het geld staat is er niets aan de hand. Fiatgeld, het criminele systeem dat door vrijwel alle Westerse landen gebruikt wordt, daar staat niets tegenover en kost ook nog eens rente, terwijl er dus helemaal niets tegenover staat, het is gebakken lucht! Dat en alleen dat is de reden voor de crisis die wereldwijd mensen in armoede stort, gezinnen ontwricht, oorlogen ontketent, kortom, alle ellende die wij kennen.<\/p>\n<p>Hudes verwijst ook nog even naar de zogenaamde dictaturen waar het Westen het zo druk mee heeft om omver te gooien <a href=\"https:\/\/strange-germain.51-195-46-41.plesk.page\/?p=781\" target=\"_blank\">zoals Irak, Libi\u00eb en nu weer Syri\u00eb<\/a>. Het gaat het Westen niet om de mensen die daar wonen, het enige dat belangrijk is voor de Westerse landen is dat deze landen zo snel mogelijk een banksysteem krijgen dat ook gelieerd is aan de criminele banken waarover dit stuk gaat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-1776\" width=\"400\" height=\"221\" alt=\"rothschildswar\" src=\"https:\/\/strange-germain.51-195-46-41.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/rothschildswar.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/strange-germain.51-195-46-41.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/rothschildswar.jpg 400w, https:\/\/strange-germain.51-195-46-41.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/rothschildswar-300x166.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>De basis van deze priv\u00e9 banken is vele jaren geleden gelegd dor de familie Bauer die wij nu kennen als de fam. Rothschild. Zij staan aan het roer van vrijwel alle banken op deze wereld behalve die banken die horen bij landen die door de mainstream media, het Westen dus, als schurkenlanden gezien worden. Die status hebben ze dus alleen omdat ze hun eigen geld maken en gebruiken en niet het geld van de financi\u00eble elite waarvan de Rothschildfamilie het hoofd is. Door landen hun geld op te dringen en geld uit het niets te kunnen maken en tegen rente te verkopen aan landen over de hele wereld, heeft deze familie enorm veel macht vergaard. Zo zijn ze graag geziene gasten bij de verschillende koningshuizen, politici, mediakanalen, etc. kortom, al die mensen die zij in hun zak hebben en dansen naar de pijpen van de familie Rothschild. Alle oorlogen die wij kennen uit onze recente geschiedenis zijn op verzoek van deze familie begonnen en ge\u00ebindigd zoals deze familie dit bevolen heeft.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rense.com\/general88\/hist.htm\" target=\"_blank\"> Deze familie, die ook Israel opgericht heeft<\/a>, de Knesset betaald en gebouwd heeft, zijn ook de as van het kwaad met betrekking tot de voortdurende molsimhetze.

Vertrouw daarom de mainstream media niet. Zij vertellen je niks waar je iets aan hebt, zij vertellen alles dat in het voordeel werkt van deze familie en alle handlangers die deze familie nu enkele eeuwen later rijk is.<\/p>\n<p>De familie Rothschild is ooit begonnen met het omkopen van overheidsambtenaren, krantenmensen, televisiemensen, farmaceutische bedrijven, oliebedrijven, opleidingsinstituten, universiteiten, etc.etc. Door de eeuwen heen hebben ze zoveel macht gekocht binnen ontelbare overheidsorganen wereldwijd en alles dat met ons leven te maken heeft, dat het bedrog zo gigantisch geworden is dat veel mensen dit niet meer kunnen zien en sommigen het simpelweg niet willen zien.<\/p>\n<p>Alle Westerse overheden dansen naar de pijpen van deze familie waarmee al onze volksvertegenwoordigers handlangers worden van deze criminelen die verantwoordelijk zijn voor bijna al het leed dat zich op deze wereld afspeelt.<\/p>\n<p>De vraag is nu. Kan iemand deze familie nog een halt toe roepen? Ik zeg ja, maar dan alleen wanneer heel veel mensen dit doen in zoveel mogelijk landen ter wereld.<\/p>\n<p>Karen Hudes zegt verder nog dat zij niet alleen staat in haar stelling, dat velen weten van deze wereldwijde oplichting en dat op hoog niveau gekeken wordt hoe deze familie en al hun handlangers op te pakken en te veroordelen. Ik mag hopen dat deze beweringen kloppen want zoals het er nu uit ziet zullen de komende jaren bij ongewijzigd doorgaan met het huidige criminele systeem, heel veel mensen het leven moeten laten voor de geneugten van deze familie en hun dienaren.<\/p>\n<p>Uit een andere bron nog een klokkenluider die zijn verhaal doet.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.disclose.tv\/embed\/154376\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" webkitallowfullscreen=\"\" mozallowfullscreen=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Spiritueel of niet spiritueel, om onder het juk van de huidige dominantie uit te kunnen komen heeft de mensheid maar 1 ding nodig, samenwerking! Samen staan wij sterk!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hier nog een uitstekend artikel, geschreven door de <a href=\"http:\/\/uitpers.be\/index.php\/economie\/409-het-dollarsysteem-barst-in-al-zijn-voegen\" target=\"_blank\">Uitpers<\/a> op basis van gegegevens van: \u201eF\u00fcr eine neuordnung Weltfinanzarchiktur\u201c van Prof. Dr.Heinrich Wohlmeyer in Zeit-Fragen Ostereich.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>De VS bezit nog altijd het summum aan militaire macht, maar door de enorme schuldencrisis van 17 biljoen dollar is deze niet langer financierbaar. Voor iedere dollar aan staatsuitgaven moet 49 cent geleend worden. Om de financiering van de VS op gang te houden is Washington verplicht regelmatig het schuldenplafond door het Congres te laten verhogen.<\/p>\n<h4>alternatieven<\/h4>\n<p>De landen in Azi\u00eb en Zuid-Amerika zijn zich bewust van het dreigend gevaar. Ze richten bijgevolg regionale banken op en zoeken voor hun onderlinge handel alternatieve betalingsmiddelen. De grote economische groeimacht China sluit bijvoorbeeld handelsakkoorden met Japan, Australi\u00eb en andere landen waarbij de betaling niet meer in dollars maar in nationale munten afgewikkeld wordt. De handel&nbsp; tussen China en een reeks Afrikaanse en Zuid-Amerikaanse landen geschiedt meer en meer op basis van grondstoffen als betaalmiddel. Deze landen moeten dus niet langer dollars op de internationale financi\u00eble markt lenen tegen hoge rente. Het biedt hen de mogelijkheid om zich te bevrijden van de wurggreep van de westerse financiers en om een eigen sociaal en economisch beleid tot stand te brengen. Deze ontwikkeling toont zeer concreet dat de dollar als internationale handelsmunt zijn beste tijd heeft gehad. Hierdoor begint ook de blokkeringsminderheid van de VS in het IMF en de Wereldbank enorme barsten te vertonen en af te brokkelen.<\/p>\n<p>De Amerikaanse minister van financi\u00ebn, Jack Lew, heeft onlangs tijdens een bijeenkomst van het IMF, ervoor gewaarschuwd dat de aftakeling van de dollar als veilige handelsmunt Washington niet onberoerd kan laten. Het financi\u00eble blad Wealth Daily drukte het zeer drastisch uit: \u201cHet verlies van de dollar als internationale handelsmunt, heeft tot gevolg dat de VS niet meer naar believen dollars kan drukken om op kosten van de wereld verder haar deficit te financieren.\u201d Met andere woorden, de militaire Amerikaanse overmacht is in de toekomst niet langer betaalbaar. Moet men zich verwachten aan Amerikaanse paniekreacties \u2013 die een militair optreden niet uitsluiten &#8211; om de staatsmachine van Washington draaiende te houden? Het is in elke geval voor de VS een onuitgegeven situatie. Het verklaart voor een groot deel het streven van Washington voor het &#8216;doen uitdrogen&#8217; van mogelijke concurrerende financi\u00eble centra in de hoop om zo de macht van de dollar in stand te houden. Maar dit kan maar een beperkte periode soelaas brengen.<\/p>\n<p>De Amerikaanse handelsbalans is sinds 1980 structureel deficitair en de betalingsbalans sinds de jaren negentig. Het Chinese persagentschap Xinhua commentarieerde onlangs over de Amerikaanse precaire financi\u00eble situatie: \u201cHet tijdperk is misschien aangebroken om een gede-amerikanseerde wereld te bewerkstelligen.\u201d &nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>verandering<\/h4>\n<p>Sinds 1913 had de Amerikaanse financi\u00eble elite zich nationale privilegies toege\u00ebigend. Na de tweede wereldoorlog heeft ze zich door de Bretton Woods instrumenten verzekerd van een internationale financi\u00eble architectuur om de wereldhandel te domineren en te controleren, de rijkdom te concentreren. Om deze toestand in stand te kunnen houden heeft ze gelijktijdig een militaire structuur op poten gezet.<\/p>\n<p>Op sociaal vlak nemen de spanningen tussen arm en rijk toe. In de VS is meer dan een tiende van de bevolking aangewezen op voedselbonnen ( Food Stamps) om te overleven. De precaire situatie in de VS wordt nog aangescherpt door de aftakeling van haar economische en financi\u00eble macht op de wereldmarkt. De VS en de EU zijn op elkaar aangewezen om hun economie draaiend te houden en om de externe toegang tot de nodige grondstoffen te verzekeren. Deze bevinden zich niet in het noordelijk halfrond maar in het Zuiden, in Afrika en Azi\u00eb. Dit verklaart waarom het Pentagon een grotere militaire aanwezigheid in Afrika uitbouwt, verpakt en toegedekt met de vlag van vredeshandhavingsmissies en de strijd tegen het internationaal terrorisme. Om deze strategie concreet gestalte te geven zijn de VS en de EU op elkaar aangewezen. Dit is duidelijk merkbaar bij het Amerikaans streven om met de EU een vrijhandelsakkoord af te sluiten. Maar het gaat hier veel meer om een omarming van twee drenkelingen: de afbrokkeling van het westers imperium is niet meer te redden.<\/p>\n<p>De wereld heeft decennialang gefunctioneerd onder een de-facto financi\u00eble dictatuur van de Bretton-Woods-instrumenten, IMF en Wereldbank. Deze instellingen zullen maar kunnen overleven indien ze grondig worden gewijzigd, dit wil zeggen dat de machtspositie van Washington en West-Europa moet verdwijnen. Wanneer men weigert om de nodige structurele aanpassingen door te voeren dan betekent dit ook wellicht het einde van het Europese sociale model. Hoever deze sociale afbraak al vordert kan men lezen in een recente studie van het Internationaal Rode Kruis ( IFRC). In de 52 onderzochte Europese landen hebben 43 miljoen burgers geen toegang tot hun dagelijkse voeding en 120 miljoen Europese burgers worden met armoede bedreigd. Het het is hoogt tijd voor een andere wereldorde.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><p>Ontvangen documenten en afbeeldingen van Karen Hudes m.b.t. deze kwestie.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">From: <a href=\"mailto:karenhudes@hotmail.com\">karenhudes@hotmail.com<\/a> To: <a href=\"mailto:jevrard@pnowb.org\">jevrard@pnowb.org<\/a> CC: <a href=\"mailto:cincinnati@free.fr\">cincinnati@free.fr<\/a> Subject: FW: The World Bank&#8217;s Mandate to Avert a Currency War Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2012 10:59:04 -0400<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Jerome,<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;I just wanted to put you into the picture. &nbsp;Previous emails are attached for your ready reference. &nbsp;I am forwarding my emails updating the US authorities. &nbsp;For a more detailed update, see my website at www.kahudes.net<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&nbsp;Best,<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Karen<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">301 229 0058<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">From:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:karenhudes@hotmail.com\"><span style=\"color: windowtext;\">karenhudes@hotmail.com<\/span><\/a> To:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:cincinnati@free.fr\"><span style=\"color: windowtext;\">cincinnati@free.fr<\/span><\/a> Subject: Re: La Banque Mondiale et Loi Internationale Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2011 15:36:31 -0400<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Priere de contacter M.
