Ebola, From a Nurse’s Perspective

 I have a Bachelor’s in Nursing and am currently a graduate student. I have worked extensively with Infectious Disease Specialists. I have been exposed to almost every infectious disease known to the modern world. I have taken courses in Biology, Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology, Pathophysiology, Advanced Pathophysiology, Pharmacology, and an assortment of others. However, I am not and will not pretend to be an expert, just an experienced professional. 

When it comes to an epidemic of any sort, my first focus is on the patient, protecting and healing them, my second focus is on protecting the community. I don’t care about which strain does what, or what we can do with in lab. As a nurse, I concern myself with the current patient and future possible patients. I feel the first thing we should examine is Ebola itself. It is foreign to the US, both literally and figuratively. 

What it does to people and how it harmonizes with nature are both things that most westerners have little concept of. It is a virus, not a bacteria. This means that it is not its own organism. It is actually much smaller and basic than you can imagine. It is nothing more than a few pieces of DNA and some proteins. No cell wall, no cytoplasm, no metabolic functions. This is both their advantage and their downfall. Viruses require a host.

 For this example I will use the HIV virus. HIV gets into the human body and invades the host’s white blood cells, T4 cells to be exact but I won’t get that involved. The proteins help get the virus into the cell and those few small sequences of DNA write themselves into the host DNA. Now instead of the white blood cell attacking invaders, it is nothing more than an HIV factory. All of its metabolic functions are redirected at producing more of the virus, which pours out of the white blood cell like a sieve until eventually the host cell dies. This is why HIV infected patients have poor immune systems. The virus re-writes the DNA of the host cells. 

This is not something we can stop. New viruses are pouring out of the white blood cells at a rate of millions a day. We cannot filter them out. We cannot “kill” a little chunk of DNA and we don’t know enough about the human genome to correct the DNA sequences. This is why a lot of viral infections like HIV, Herpes, and Hepatitis are life long infections. 

HIV invades the white blood cells, Herpes invade the nerve roots, and Hepatitis invades the liver.
Now that we have a better grasp of viruses, we will focus on Ebola a bit more. In tropical Africa, Ebola naturally lives in bats. It is nice to the bats and doesn’t cause them many issues. It is rumored that there are many viruses humans carry our entire lives and have no idea because they show zero symptoms. 

Therefore, they have never been studied. If this sounds crazy, just remember that it was in recent years the we discovered there was a virus behind cervical cancer. A virus that men can carry and spread without ever knowing they have it. Where the problem arises is that in tropical Africa, people like to eat bats. Sometimes they get infected with Ebola and it spreads. 

This process is called Zoonosis and can be true of bacteria or viruses. Canines carry Rabies, Armadillos carry Leprosy, Birds carry the Flu, Bats carry Ebola.
When I said Westerners don’t really understand Ebola, the primary aspect that I am talking about is the patient. We don’t ever see what Ebola does. 

Our media is too censored, we hear how many died, and see people in haz-mat suits. Speaking of suits, we’ve all seen the pictures. Rubber gloves are adequate for AIDS and hepatitis, a simple mask stops Tuberculosis, but this requires space suits, just keep that in mind when you think its no big deal. So here is what happens when you catch Ebola, I figure you’re getting bored with reading right about now, so I’ll spice it up. First the virus gets into your system, I’ll elaborate on that later. 

Then, it hangs out for a few days, even up to 21, growing, multiplying at a rate of millions a day, and guess what, you’re infectious. Just like with the flu or hand foot and mouth disease, you can be spreading it to others before you show a symptom*. Remember, nurse mind set, protect the community. At first it’s not bad, little nausea, some sweating, diarrhea, much like a stomach bug. 
 

But then the virus really starts to build up in your liver and adrenal glands, after it has saturated your blood cells, the lining of your vessel, your skin, and bones. Hepatocellular necrosis occurs, which is fancy term for your liver starts to decompose.Your liver is what regulates blood clotting. This causes your blood either clot up and turn to jelly in your veins, stay liquid and bleed profusely, or a combo of both. The adrenal glands then do the same, causing your blood pressure to drop. This requires lots of IV fluids to keep your circulating volume up. 

At the same time inflammatory cytokines are released which causes vascular leakage. Cells don’t do a good job of holding things together so it all becomes a bloody goop. Anywhere in your body that blood vessels are shallow, like your nose, ears, gums, throat, GI tract, urethra, vagina, rectum, all start oozing fluids and bleeding because the tissues that normally keep it contained are disintegrating. So now you bleed from every orifice, including your eyeballs. Every time someone or something touches you, your tissue gets damaged which further the cycle, so a shot in the arm turn into a massive blood blister. Those who survive are left with massive scarring. 

Since the adrenals cannot keep your blood pressure up, and you are losing blood and fluids, we have to put IV fluids in to keep you out of hypovolemic shock. This in turn reduces your blood concentration, lowering your oxygen carrying capacity, which causes your heart to race. So you lay in bed, oozing fluids from everywhere, all while feeling like you just ran a marathon, with bloody diarrhea, oh and did I mention pain? Lots and lots of pain, but you can’t have any pain medicine because your liver and kidneys have failed. This why it pains me when I see this outbreak ONLY has a 50% death rate, when in Africa it is up to 90%…ONLY 50%. That is literally worse than cancer, and people are blowing it off. Imagine if cancer was infectious, and you lived in a country with zero cancer, and someone thought it would be a good idea to fly a few people in. I think there would be a different attitude.


The biggest part of the discussion is how Ebola is spread. I will say two things on the topic, no, it is not airborne, and yes, basic hygiene plays a HUGE factor. But while on the topic of whether it is or is not airborne, the definition of an airborne contagion is one that can freely float in the air, survive lengths of time, and infect someone else. VERY few things fit in this category, most have been eradicated, Polio, Small Pox, Tuberculosis. Things that are also NOT airborne, are the flu and the cold. For the flu, you have to come into direct contact with the patients body fluids. How then, do you explain why people catch it and have no idea how. Well for one, people can spread it before they show symptoms, just like Ebola, and one other HUGE factor…droplets….let that word really sink in. 
 
The virus may not be airborne, but the droplets are. I’m going to digress for a second and get back to HIV and hepatitis, while I let droplets dwell in your mind. Everyone knows that HIV and Hepatitis are spread by blood contact, and sexual fluids, I don’t mean a drop of blood on the skin, or even a mucous membrane, it has to get INSIDE of you. This is why only gloves are required. HIV and hepatitis are not found in urine, stool (Some forms of hepatitis are, but you have to eat the stool to get infected) saliva, sweat, tears, or mucous. This is where some viruses are different. The flu gets into your mucous and other secretions, Ebola tends to stay in the blood, but remember, every one of your bodily fluids are full of blood now. So a person with the flu sneezes, and now millions of little droplets (remember those guys?) shoot out of their nose at nearly mach 1, all across the room, same for a cough, all it takes is a little microscopic droplet to land in your eye, nose, mouth, or the unlikely scenario of an open wound, and you’ve now been infected, because you came in CONTACT with their bodily fluids. 

See the word contact thrown around a lot, but most people think of mass amounts of contact with blood, but what they don’t realize is that contact also includes microscopic mucous and saliva droplets, each one chock full of Ebola. Now to the second part of this, HIV only lives outside of the human body for a few seconds, maybe minutes if the quantity is high enough, Hepatitis a bit longer. 

That’s why you hear about the dirty needles at movie theaters and playgrounds, but never hear of an infection, before the perpetrator even leaves the theater, the HIV he left in that needle has already died. Ebola on the other hand survives quite well outside of the host, I can’t find my source again, but I believe its up to 4 days.
So with all this information, lets have some role play, so that you can see exactly what this means, to a nurse, in the real world. Imagine it as a cheesy PSA or lifetime movie. You go to see your doctor because its that time of year, you need some blood drawn and refills of your blood pressure med. You sit patiently in the waiting room, thumbing a magazine while your 2-year-old plays with her toys. Like all two year olds, she touches everything, and everything goes in her mouth, toys, pens, her own fingers. She is a 22 lb drool factory and you love her to pieces. You see the doctor, get your goodies, and go home. 

A week later your angel starts vomiting blood and within 3 days she dies because her heart raced so fast it finally gave up while trying to maintain a blood pressure. Her eyes are blood red and demonic, her skin falls off in sheets. What you don’t know is that 3 days before your visit, someone thought they had the flu. It is October you see and they sneezed while thumbing through that very same magazine you thumbed through. The same thumb you grabbed her pacifier out of your purse with in the waiting room. The people caring for Ebola patients wear space suits, and burn the bodies, yet it still spreads. Here in America, we have much better protocols, and much better hygiene. 
 
So if it spreads, it will be contained much better. Still, it spreads prior to symptoms and survives will outside the body, just like the flu. Despite vaccines and good hand washing, thousands still get the flu every year. But while the flu kills 1-2% of its victims, Ebola kills 50% on a good day, and spreads the same way. So please, do not write it off as hype. It is a real thing and it is here.
The case in Dallas has been confirmed. The patient had contact with five children and adolescents prior to admission.  

Those five kids attend four of the largest schools in Dallas. One sneeze and we could already have thousands of people, who don’t know it yet, infected.

Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO)

The United States will use a credit card known as Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) to pay for its new military campaign in Iraq and Syria.

The Pentagon has estimated that the ongoing air offensive against the ISIL terrorist group is costing up to $25 million a day.

US lawmakers have approved a measure authorizing the Pentagon to begin training and arming “moderate”(as if such a thing exists in the middle East)  Syrian militants. To fight a proxy war against the other American funded army in the middle east ISIS/ISIL.  All the while hoping to somehow overthrow the Syrian government.  This brilliant plan could take years and cost in excess of $50 to $100 billion US dollars. 

In recent weeks, US military leaders have seized on the war on ISIL and increased military spending by China and Russia, imploring Congress to eliminate the nearly $500 billion in budget cuts that were planned over the next decade.

However, analysts predict that Congress will most certainly fund the ISIL war using the OCO account, a so-called war credit card with no limits in borrowing.  This is a huge unlimited amount of money aside from the declared military budget in the United States.



It’s a war credit card, because America's economy absolutely depends on spending, purchasing, and supporting military contractors. Think, Boeing, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, BAE Systems, Cerberus Capital, General Electric, Honeywell, Intel, Cisco, Rockwell Corp, The Shaw Group, Unisys Corp, L-3 Communication, ad nauseam...

The US declared military budget  maintains thousands of bases, over a million direct personal, the largest open water Navy in the world, an Air Force that is 1st class, a Space Force which is highly top secret, as well as the most advanced standing army in the world.  The USA's yearly defense spending tops $1.3 Trillion that trillion with a big huge 'T.'  

Keep in mind that the $1.3 Trillion is only the DECLARED US military expenditure.  There is an actual off book spending which the GAO (Government Accounting office) does not publish.  Those expenditures are the black budget, off book, top secret, above top secret, does not even exist, military expenditures.  For example...The huge American Space Fleet, underground bases, off world bases, etc. 

Now, as if  the USA doesn't spend enough on Defense spending already, and for some strange reason Congress won't pony up any more money to that gigantic pile of green backs.  Then, what is left to do for the US military?  Why they borrow it, they borrow the money from a no-limit War Credit Card called the OCO.
 

Isn't it great that the US military has created a secret War Credit Card which has unlimited funding.  So, there is no amount of obscene cash that cannot be spent in the pursuit to kill an unimagined number of people while at the same time imposing Democracy one 500lb bomb at a time. 

Revised List of Quarantinable Communicable Diseases, amends executive order 13295

Obama has signed an amendment to an executive order that would allow him to mandate the apprehension and detention of Americans who may or may NOT show signs of “respiratory illness.”

You don't have to be sick, appear sick, or even be around someone who might be sick. This executive order gives unlimited power to arrest ANYONE for ANY reason without due process of law.  
 
The executive order, titled Revised List of Quarantinable Communicable Diseases, amends executive order 13295, passed by George W. Bush in April 2003, which allows for the, “apprehension, detention, or conditional release of individuals to prevent the introduction, transmission, or spread of suspected communicable diseases.”   


The amendment signed by Obama replaces subsection (b) of the original Bush executive order which referred only to SARS. Obama’s amendment allows for the detention of Americans who display, “Severe acute respiratory syndromes, which are diseases that are associated with fever and signs and symptoms of pneumonia or other respiratory illness, are capable of being transmitted from person to person, and that either are causing, or have the potential to cause, a pandemic, or, upon infection, are highly likely to cause mortality or serious morbidity if not properly controlled.”



Just in time for the winter cold season. 

Although Ebola was listed on the original executive order signed by Bush, Obama’s amendment ensures that Americans who merely show signs of respiratory illness, with the exception of influenza, can be forcibly detained by medical authorities.

So, anyone, anywhere, without legal representation can be arrested, detained, and or deported to a SECURE facility.  So, if you have a common cold, allergies, or simply under the weather the United States government, via-a-vie the local authorities can arrest, detain, or simply disappear any American citizen. No one will question your disappearance once those in authority say.."The person you are asking about tested positive for "Virus-of the month club." Everyone will breathe a sigh of relief and even thank the local official for doing such an awesome job keeping them safe.  You disappearance will be applauded and then forgotten. 

REMEMBER: The government, an those in power, cannot hold onto that power without a scary Bogey man to keep the sheep fearful and distracted. 



Isn't it convenient that the  Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has measures in place for dealing with an outbreak of a communicable disease which allow for the quarantine of “well persons” who “do not show symptoms” of the disease.


The Model State Emergency Health Powers Act, public health authorities and governors would be given expanded police powers to seize control of communications devices, public and private property, as well as a host of other draconian measures in the event of a public health emergency.

When the legislation was introduced, the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons warned that it “ will turn governors into dictators.”
  

The CIA Created ISIS/ISIL because the CIA Created Taliban just wasn't Scaring the American Public Anymore

Obama lied to the American Public Yet Again

CNN Middle East correspondent Arwa Damon spoke with residents from the town of Raqqa, in northeastern Syria had “laughed at the US strikes”. The reason given was a real shocker:

Damon revealed on air early Wednesday that ISIL terrorists who were held up in the town WERE tipped off weeks in advance to the US airstrikes on Tuesday by the US!

“15-20 days before the airstrikes, ISIS/ISIL buildings were evacuated, and fighters then mixed in with the local population. So, as not to aner or upset the ISIS/ISIL fighters.

Maybe Damon let the truth slip out by accident, or maybe she was trying to do what US journalists so often are not allowed to do by challenging Washington’s prefabricated narrative.

This surprising admission by CNN would mean that the US military may have only destroyed empty buildings in Raqqa, and that Washington’s inflated claims of dead ISIL fighters are DEFINITELY  exaggerated. In other words, it was all a big show, and ISIL’s capabilities were not degraded at all by Obama’s celebrated US blitzkrieg in Syria.

 

So, just to make the American public feel good, Washington decided to...

1) Warn ahead of time, all ISIS/ISIL fighter where the bombs would be dropped.

2) Then, give 2 weeks plus advance time, so that, the ISIS/ISIL fighters would have enough time to remove EVERYTHING from the buildings

3) Finally, to bomb empty buildings and then splash across the American mainstream media the big scary explosions.

4) All so Washington could help their muslim puppets in the middle east and at the same time placate the American public.

Typical New World Order phys-op

Create problem --US creates, funds, and arms ISIS/ISIL.  Then, US unleashes ISIS/ISIL on Syria in the middle east. 

Followed by US painting ISIS/ISIL as the new bogey man that the American public must be deathly afraid of. 

Followed by the US pretending to do something about the muslim extremists which the US created in the 1st place.   

All the while ISIS/ISIL has AMERICAN CIA, NSA, RIO advisers leading them in tactics, weapons, and funding.  
 
  

 

Gulf War Syndrome

During the Gulf War of 1990-91 the United States Government conducted the largest experimental drug evaluation in its history.  

As result, approximately 250,000 of the 697,000 U.S. veterans who served in the 1991 Gulf War are afflicted with a chronic illness. Symptoms include fatigue, muscle pain, cognitive problems, rashes and diarrhea.   The compound Pyridostigmine Bromide was considered by the Pentagon as a possible prophylactic for Marines and soldiers exposure to chemical warfare nerve agents.

The use of chemical nerve agents such as Pyridostigmine Bromide being used a prophylactic was and is controversial. The same tactic was not employed during the second series of Gulf Wars which explains why there was not a similar fallout of neurological disorders reported afterward.
Pyridostigmine Bromide is a related chemical to Saren Nerve Gas. The flawed theory was to use it like a vaccine, so the Marine or soldier's system would already be exposed to, and "supposedly" built some sort of immunity to Saren Nerve Gas. Of course none of the Marines or soldiers were advised of the terrible risks and realities of taking a chemical that floods the synapses with artificially high doses of acetylcholine. Troops are only trained to obey orders, not question them.


Gulf War Illness is now considered a "Presumptive Illness" by the Veterans Affairs, in the same class as being POW or exposure to Agent Orange. What that translates to is, if a Veteran was deployed to that theater of operations during that specific time frame, and if that said Veteran contracted any of a list of approved maladies, the same Veteran could be awarded benefits without the same burden of proof for something like Trichloroethylene exposure (Marine Corps Air Station El Toro was condemned because of TCE).

 

However, the VA has not determined the cause of Gulf War Illness. The U.S. Government is never going to finger themselves as the culprit. The U.S. Government is never going to admit they not just exposed young American boys to the cause of Gulf War Illness, but order them to orally injest it.

United States Marine David Scott Douthit Gulf War Story:

I got out of the Marine Corps in 1987. I was an aircraft mechanic on F-4 Phantoms. We worked with the chemical solvent Trichloroethylene. We degreased aircraft parts, and even cleaned our hands with it. I suffered contact dermatitis all over my arms and legs for two years from it. I often jested that I was allergic to the Marine Corps.
About two weeks after I was discharged my contact dermatitis disappeared never to return. But I had also developed a nagging pain in the right upper quadrant of my abdomen that did not go away. It did not go away after I got out of the Corps, or twenty five years later. I had suffered permanent damage to my liver from TCE exposure. It was stage 3 non-alcoholic steateohepatitis.

 

In 2012 the VA doctors advised me if I had my gallbladder removed it may help lessen pain. I agreed to have the surgery. Six weeks later I suffered deep vein thrombosis and a full blown pulmonary embolism. Four weeks later I was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis, an extremely rare potentially fatal autoimmune disorder.

Right about the time I was starting to feel really sorry for myself, I got a dose of something that would pale all former suffering.That something was Pyridostigmine Bromide. Medical literature clearly indicates PB will cross the blood brain barrier in cases of multiple chemicals in the bloodstream, or external stressors. That is exactly what occurred with me. The myelin sheath was burned off nerves throughout my body, resulting in constant burning, stabbing, electrical pain.

 

I reported my condition to all VA doctors, and all reports fell on deaf ears of incompetent clock watching VA doctors. Five months of total insanity that included me arming my family in the middle of the night because I thought the Aztecs were attacking. This kind of behavior was not the exception, but the rule.

My wife repeatedly told the VA doctors I was insane. Once again, the incompetent clock-watching VA doctors totally disregarded her warnings. My VA primary care physician did ask me about it, and I explained to him that I was a bloodlined descendant of King Arthur, and that I had broken the veil of reality and tapped into the Akashic record.

Evidently he either did not think that to be insane, or it was getting close to break time and all he could think about was coffee and doughnuts. If my disdain for VA doctors seems a little over the top, you simply don't understand what I had to live through.

 

My only other choice was dying, which I tried and it didn't work out. But in the darkness of that morbid act, I loosened the chains which held me. I had tried to kill myself by taking all my medicine at once. I threw it all up. Once the supply of PB was gone I thought for sure I would die, since the VA doctors told me I needed it to see straight, to breath, and be able to swallow and digest food.

The exact opposite happened. No longer being poisoned I was finally able to see straight, to breath and digest food. By the grace of God my sanity was restored. But the extensive neurological damage remains. I am on multiple drugs to try to help control nerve pain. Largely to no avail, I am having metal electrodes surgically implanted in my spine.

Besides the GWI, MG, NASH,  I also have Pancreatic Cancer, non-metastatic cancers in my Thymus, Spleen, Liver. After surviving five months of insanity, it took me over a year to even realize how insane I had been. When a person is truly insane they don't recognize it themselves. I harbored delusions in my heart that were hard to let go of. As silly as it sounds, when you are insane, you don't realize how ridiculous your own thoughts are.
THE Few the Proud The Forgotten 

Now I truly understand what is like to be disenfranchised, marginalized, ostracized...just like those poor vets after the first Gulf War who reported crazy symptoms and were not believed, lots of times even by those close to them. I imagine many marriages and even lives were destroyed. 

 

Some info excerpted from http://www.henrymakow.com/

Путин великий президент

Путин великий президент. Здесь, в Америке у нас есть слабаком и трусом для Президента. Я не могу себе представить, будет это походило бы, если бы Америка была реальная сильный человек, как Путин на пост президента. Может быть, Америка не будет потерять его; место России как супер-державы мира.

Which translates to...

 

Remember FUKUSHIMA

Make no mistake, the radiation at FUKUSHIMA, Japan has not gotten better, it has not gone away.  What has happened is the ruling party in Japan in an unusual late-night session with protesters chanting outside, Parliament passed a secrecy law on Friday that the prime minister said would strengthen national security but opponents warned would stifle democracy.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe used his governing coalition’s majority to get the bill approved by Parliament in about four weeks, a blistering speed by the standards of Japan’s consensus-driven political world. This brought howls of protest from opposition parties that Mr. Abe and his Liberal Democratic Party were ramming through a potentially dangerous new law without giving them, or the public, a chance to understand it first.   

 Now, anyone speaking of  FUKUSHIMA and it's effects on the Japanese people, the American west coast, or even the world will face stiff penalties of up to 10 years in prison.  This is how the Japanese respond to the world wide NUCLEAR crisis at FUKUSHIMA.  

Instead of asking for help from the The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) the Japanese ruling party has sought to silence and scare would-be whistle-blowers, harass journalists, and remove the Japanese public, as well as, the worlds right to know what is REALLY occurring at FUKUSHIMA. 

 

WHO is ISIS

ISIS is a western created, funded, armed and backed terrorists group.  

ISIS is a is an ideology, a movement, a theocratic-political totalitarian supremacist belief that is intent on global domination.

The 22 nations of the Arab League are talking about cutting off ISIS financial resources yeah right especially when countries like Qatar, Kuwait, Turkey, and members of the royal House of Saud are providing financial support. ISIS has declared war against the United States and we need to respond. 

WE need to respond.  What will be our domestic strategy to defeat the infiltration and recruitment of ISIS and other Islamist fighters? How will we send a clear diplomatic message to those nations supporting ISIS. How does the United States track down terrorist funding, not only to ISIS, and sanction it and cut it off? How do we develop a dedicated information operation to defeat Islamist ideology?

But more importantly, will we EVER develop the intestinal fortitude to meet groups like ISIS on the field of battle and crush them, with no restrictive Rules of Engagement, just focused and targeted killing? And that means wherever they are and run.

A strategy is a good thing, only if it is executed, which is what we shall be looking for. As well, we learn in the military that no plan survives first contact. 

Make no mistake...The US funded, armed and back ISIS from the beginning; just as they did the Taliban. Remember those behind the throne with the real power use a very simple formula to retain control of the world. 

The Devil's Tricks are Tried and True...

The trick of creating chaos and then seizing power under the pretense of putting things back in order is a tried and true method of deception and manipulation. 

It's the meaning behind the Latin motto: ORDO AB CHAO meaning ORDER OUT OF CHAOS.

It's also referred to as the Hegelian Dialect  after the philosopher Georg Hegel who wrote about its effectiveness. He described it as: THESIS -- ANTI-THESIS -- SYN-THESIS.


 The government NEEDS a Bogey man to keep the people afraid; so that they do not have the willpower to question their leaders.

Trillion-Dollar Deficits

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) published a horrifying paper, called...

The Fund’s Lending Framework and Sovereign Debt. 

That paper in turn was based on one from December 2013, called...

 Financial and Sovereign Debt Crises: Some Lessons Learned and Those Forgotten.

All the Network media ignored all of this, of course.

The December 2013 document, right at the start, says that “financial repression” is necessary. Here’s what it says:

The claim is that advanced countries do not need to resort to the standard toolkit of emerging markets, including debt restructurings and conversions, higher inflation, capital controls and other forms of financial repression.

As we document, this claim is at odds with the historical track record of most advanced economies, where debt restructuring or conversions, financial repression, and a tolerance for higher inflation, or a combination of these were an integral part of the resolution of significant past debt overhangs.

So, in order to fix debt overhangs—currently at horrifying levels—financial repression is not just an option, but required.
That’s not my interpretation; those are their words.
And, of course, they’ve already had a trial run, when they stole funds directly from individual bank accounts in Cyprus. Here’s how that went down:

• March 16, 2013: Cyprus announces a bank holiday and sets the terms of a “bail-in” to save the banks: 6.75% of all bank balances under €100,000 and 9.9% of balances larger than €100,000 will be confiscated. In honest language, the word for that is “theft.”

• People screamed, and the government hemmed and hawed for a number of days.

• March 24, 2013: People are permitted to withdraw €100 at a time from their bank accounts.

• March 25, 2013: A bail-in deal is announced. Accounts with over €100,000 lose either 47.5% of their money (Bank of Cyprus) or 100% of their money (Laiki bank).

And as it happened, a number of very rich people and companies were permitted to withdraw their money in full, regardless of the “bail-in.”

The IMF report goes on to say:

Governments can stuff debt into local pension funds and insurance companies, forcing them through regulation to accept far lower rates of return than they might otherwise demand. ….

Domestic defaults, restructurings, or conversions are particularly difficult to document and can sometimes be disguised as “voluntary.”

The paper that they slipped out also adds this:

The Fund would be able to provide exceptional access on the basis of a debt operation that involves an extension of maturities.

That means that 30-day notes can be instantly turned into 30-year bonds.

The US Treasury Is Already on the Job

It’s not just the IMF, of course. The US Treasury has had a group working on these ideas since the Bush administration.
And in August 2010, the US Departments of Labor and the Treasury held joint hearings, deciding how best they could take control of all assets in IRAs and 401(k) accounts. The decision was that they’d replace them with “Treasury Retirement Bonds.”

More Examples

• In 2009, the government of Ireland swiped €4 billion from its National Pensions Reserve Fund in order to prop up its insolvent banks. The following March, they stole the remaining €2.5 billion for another bailout.

• In November 2010, the French parliament took €36 billion from a reserve pension fund to pay the debts of a “social” fund.

• Also in November 2010, the government of Hungary effectively took 2.7 trillion forints ($13.5 billion) from 3 million retirement accounts.

• The government of Poland nationalized one-third of future contributions to individual retirement accounts. That money will almost certainly disappear into the state treasury, robbing savers of some $2.3 billion per year.

 

Understand that the financial powers that be—the IMF, World Bank, Bank for International Settlements (BIS), assorted central banks, and your local government—are ready to rob you.

When the time comes, all their usual sucker-bait will be pulled out: “It only hits the rich,” “We have to trash the economy to save it,” “We must all sacrifice,” “It’s for the children,” and so on.
All the right-thinking people on television will wring their hands and say it’s the only way out. Perhaps they’ll even let a bank or two crash for good effect.

But in the end, they aim to steal your money. Government and the big banks will continue unharmed.

If you want to protect yourself, you need to get your wealth out of registered accounts, because that’s where they’ll grab first.
Understand that these people have only two real choices:

1. Reform their system, close the central banks, and give up their power.

2. Start grabbing the only big pile of portable wealth remaining: your retirement money.

I don’t think any of us believe they’ll take option number one.

Don't think it can't happen? It already did April 5, 1933

A Comedy perspective on Global Enslavement

George Carlin using humor to speak volumes of truth about the enslavement of all of humanity by the elite rich.  George makes a good point that the reason things are so bad is because those who own every thing want it that way. 

It makes no sense for those who are in control to ever lift humanity out of the dark ages.  Huge profits come from pain and suffering.   War is one of the global elite's most profitable enterprises. 

Have FAITH, it is NOT impossible to rid humanity of these parasites.  Judgement is coming and when it does these foul, corrupt, slave masters, who profit off of the suffering of mankind will be the first to join their master as he is thrown into the fiery pit.

Your time is running out! Do not wait, turn now from you evil ways while you still have a chance.  

When ZION comes, when the day of Judgement rips the sky open like a scroll being unraveled, your fallen Master will be of no help.  

Neither the sea, nor the entire earth will be big enough to conceal your foul deeds on that day!  Even the rocks will not hide you because they belong to the great JUDGE who has come down from HIS Eternal Throne to settle all debts...

Malicious cellphone towers appearing in U.S.

Mystery cellphone towers have been found across America, which look like ordinary towers, and can only be identified by a heavily customized handset built for Android security – but have a much more malicious purpose, according to Popular Science.

The fake ‘towers’ – computers which wirelessly attack cellphones via the “baseband” chips built to allow them to communicate with their networks, can eavesdrop and even install spyware, ESD claims. They are a known technology - but the surprise is that they are in active use.

The towers were found by users of the CryptoPhone 500, one of several ultra-secure handsets that have come to market in the last couple of years, after an executive noticed his handset was “leaking” data regularly.

Its American manufacturer boasts that the handset has a “hardened” version of Android which removes 468 vulnerabilities from the OS. Despite its secure OS, Les Goldsmith of the handset’s US manufacturer ESD found that his personal Android security handset’s firewall showed signs of attack “80 to 90” times per hour.

The leaks were traced to the mysterious towers. Despite having some of the functions of normal cellphone towers, Goldsmith says their function is rather different. He describes them as “interceptors” and says that various models can eavesdrop and even push spyware to devices. Normal cellphones cannot detect them – only specialized hardware such as ESD’s Android security handsets.


These cell phone towers across the country ARE part of a secret government surveillance program!

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

 Do You Know What You Are Supporting?

The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge to raise money for the ALS Association is sweeping the nation, and going viral in social media. However, do you know what you are supporting if you contribute funds to the ALS Association?

The ALS Association describes their “mission”:

Established in 1985, The ALS Association is the only national non-profit organization fighting Lou Gehrig’s Disease on every front.  By leading the way in global research, providing assistance for people with ALS through a nationwide network of chapters, coordinating multidisciplinary care through certified clinical care centers, and fostering government partnerships, The Association builds hope and enhances quality of life while aggressively searching for new treatments and a cure.
As the preeminent ALS organization, The Association leads the way in research, care services, public education, and public policy — giving help and hope to those facing the disease.  The Association’s nationwide network of chapters provides comprehensive patient services and support to the ALS community.

ALS is the acronym for Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly known as “Lou Gehrig’s Disease.” Media portrayals of the Ice Bucket Challenge generally state that ALS “is always fatal and has no known cure,” and therefore urge people to contribute to the ALS Association to fund research to find a cure.

Where Does the Money Contributed to the ALS Association Go?

So where does the money donated to the ALS Association actually go? You may be surprised to find out that the Association itself claims that only 27% of its funds go towards research.

Here are their 2013 tax returns to take a closer look at how their funds are spent. Here are the salaries for the leadership of the group:

• Jane H. Gilbert – President and CEO – $339,475.00
• Daniel M. Reznikov – Chief Financial Officer – $201,260.00
• Steve Gibson – Chief Public Policy Officer – $182,862.00
• Kimberly Maginnis - Chief of Care Services Officer – $160,646.00
• Lance Slaughter - Chief Chapter Relations and Development Officer – $152,692.00
• Michelle Keegan – Chief Development Officer – $178,744.00
• John Applegate – Association Finance Officer – $118.726.00
• David Moses – Director of Planned Giving – $112,509.00
• Carrie Munk – Chief Communications and Marketing Officer – $142,875.00
• Patrick Wildman – Director of Public Policy – $112,358.00
• Kathi Kromer – Director of State Advocacy – $110,661.00

Total administration costs, as seen in the pie chart above, were just under $2 million. “Other salaries and wages” (Part IX line 7) were $3.6 million, with another half million dollars in “pension plans” and “employee benefits.” Expenses for non-employee labor were about $4 million, and “travel expenses” exceeded $1.3 million.

So total costs for labor to run the association was around $12.5 million, from revenues received totaling $24 million.

Over 50% of what the ALS Association receives appears to support salaries of people working for the Association, based on these tax returns.

So what about the rest of the revenue?

Almost $1 million was spent on “Lobbying” (Schedule C Part II 2a). Here is what they wrote concerning their Lobbying efforts:

Explanation: The purpose of our advocacy program is to sensitize legislators to, and obtain their sympathy for, the plight of ALS victims, patients and their families, and to influence legislation regarding the appropriation of federal funds for ALS research and the use and cost to patients of “orphan” drugs.

The largest amount of what is remaining is: “Grants and other assistance to governments and organizations in the United States” (Part IX line 1) – $6.2 million. This amount is itemized on Schedule 1. Almost all of these recipients are medical schools, with strong ties to the pharmaceutical industry.

The ALS Association was started in 1985, and they still have not invested in any new cures for ALS. One of the latest failures was Biogen’s drug dexpramipexole, which halted research in early 2013. The drug was in research for more than 10 years at an estimated cost of between $75 million and $100 million, but was abandoned in last stage development due to poor results.

If You Are Pro-life, You Are Supporting Research in Stem-Cells from Aborted Fetuses for ALS

The ALS Foundation’s primary work in “research” is in the development of new pharmaceutical drugs, and that includes stem cell research. Here is one study where they have been listed as a sponsor: A Phase I, Open-label, First-in-human Feasibility and Safety Study of Human Spinal Cord derived Neural Stem Cell Transplantation for the Treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. Quote:

These stem cells have been engineered from the spinal cord of a single fetus electively aborted after eight weeks of gestation. The tissue was obtained with the mother’s consent. 

When we make a contribution to a charity, typically we want to know that the particular charity reflects our own values, so this will be important information for many people.

Are There non-Drug Alternatives for ALS Treatment?

Yes! However, you are not likely to read anything about this from a non-profit charitable organization supporting the pharmaceutical industry. We have previously reported the story of Clarence and his experience in using coconut oil: Coconut Oil Reverses Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

Coconut oil can be used in a strict ketogenic diet that has been shown to be successful in treating Alzheimer’s 

disease, Parkinson’s, diabetes, and cancer. among others. The principles of the ketogenic diet are completely different from the philosophy that the pharmaceutical companies start from in their research, where the assumption is that ALS is a “genetic disease.” Most of the current research on fighting disease with a ketogenic diet starts out with the assumption that modern diseases are primarily metabolic, and not genetic, caused by such things as poor diet, toxins in our food and environment, etc.

Another non-drug approach currently seeing success with those suffering from ALS is the Deanna Protocol. This nutritional protocol has seen great success among many users, but I could find no information on any research being done on it by the ALS Association, sadly.

Charities and fun activities like the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge can often give us a feeling of contributing to something very helpful and worthwhile, but it is always wise to research any charity first. Examining their tax returns is one good way to find out where their money is actually being spent.

Democratic Party takes Rick Perry out of the 2016 Presidential Run

Make no mistake this circus surrounding governor Rick Perry of Texas has Zero to do with upholding the law and EVERYTHING to do with keeping a viable Republican out of the 2016 Presidential Race.

The catalyst for the Rick Perry indictment was the drunk driving arrest of Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg. Lehmberg headed the Texas Public Integrity Unit, an in-house political watch dog entity.  Following her conviction, which included video of embarrassing behavior at the time of her arrest, Governor Perry demanded Lehmberg resign her position.  Nearly ALL Texans supported this request, thinking a woman caught on tape drunk and acting abusively toward law enforcement, was not an appropriate figure to be heading the Texas Public Integrity Unit.

Travis County is controlled by the state Democratic Party machine though, and party leaders refused the governor’s request, and allowed Lehmberg to continue serving following her brief jail sentence.  If Rosemary Lehmber was a heterosexual, Republican Christian do you really think she would have been allowed to stay in office?  No way!  However, since she is a 400lb Democrat who also happens to be a hard core lesbian she is allowed to flaunt the legal system.  

It seems we are swiftly moving into a new Fascist state where homosexuals and liberals are the new ruling class, and by the lack of outcry, it seems they are also above the law. 

Governor Perry in turn (legally) utilized his veto powers to withhold funding of Lehmberg’s department, thinking it unwise to send the peoples’ money to a “Public Integrity” office being run by a woman convicted of driving with an alcohol level THREE TIMES the legal limit who then used her position as a district attorney to threaten to end the law enforcement careers of those who arrested her.

The “Public Integrity” office is nothing more then the enforcement arm of the Texas state Democratic Party.  The sole focus of the  “Public Integrity” office is Republicans.  The “Public Integrity” office's agenda is to keep the Republicans from power and office. 

The charges are all smoke and shadow...there are no legal basis for the charges.  The thing about grand juries is that if you stack them the right way; you can get a grand jury to indict a HAM sandwich.   The grand jury which indicted Governor Rick perry was created and controlled by the Travis County Democrat Party.  

The entire charade is about taking a serious contender for the 2016 Republican nominations and branding him a criminal.  Even, when Rick Perry is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt innocent, the liberal press now has something to pin on, and hound Rick Perry with, for the foreseeable future.  This dog and pony show will be the lead in for every liberal new cast when they speak of Rick Perry for the 2016 Presidential run.  This whole indictment is an egregious trespass of justice. These are the types of politics that were used in Communist Russia during the Stalin era.  

Speaking of Stalin, wouldn't you know it, Ole' Georgie Soros has his money and influence controlling the fake semi-Communist organization called Texans for Public Justice.  This phony facade  bought and paid for by Ole' Georgie Sorros is nothing more then foreign interests meddling in Domestic politics, specifically Texas politics.  

What you are seeing in TEXAS is international BANKING  interests trying to break the back of America's heartland.  If filthy corrupt, foreign influences like Ole' Gerogie Sorros (Who is NOT an American) and his COMRADES are allowed to dictate honest political discourse in the American Heartland then all is lost.   REAL TRUE Americans must fight back or Ole' Gerogie Sorros and parasites like him will continue to gut America's economy till there  is nothing left, but indentured servitude to foreign BANKING interests.   

If TEXANS do not stand up for Rick Perry, then what they will get is a horde of FAT, entitled, lazy, foreign influenced, homosexual pandering, illegal alien supporting, military hating, anti-American, anti-Christian, anti-white, pro-feminists, male hating, parasitic politicians who will make it their life's calling to dismantle the American Dream...

One hard working, tax paying, law abiding, GOD Fearing, Texan at a time...
