OVERLORDS OF MONEY
THE TRIUMPH OF THE
MONEYLENDERS AND THE COMING WORLD ORDER
"World events
do not occur by accident. They are made to happen, and most of
them are staged and managed by those who hold the purse strings."
Denis Healey, British
Labour Party minister and Member of Parliament 1952-1992
GLOBAL FINANCIAL
OLIGARCHY AND EUROPE
"The Rothschilds introduced
the rule of money into European politics. The Rothschilds were
the servants of money who undertook the reconstruct the world
as an image of money and its functions. Money and the employment
of wealth have become the law of European life."
Professor Friedrich Wilhelm,
German historian, New York Times, July 8, 1937
"Mayer Amschel Rothschild
(1744-1812) founded the dynasty in Frankfurt, Germany. He trained
his five sons and placed them in the most important financial
capitals of the time:
Nathan Rothschild - London; Jacob (James) Rothschild - Paris;
Salomon Rothschild - Vienna; Carl Rothschild - Naples; Amschel
Rothschild - Frankfurt. These five banking houses formed a coordinated
financial network, allowing the Rothschilds to control European
finance."
Professor Roland Usher in his
book "Pan Americanism", 1913
"The House of Rothschild
was (and is) the ruling power in Europe, for all the political
powers were willing to acknowledge the sway of the great financial
Despot, and, like obedient vassals, pay their tribute without
murmur.... Its influence was so all-powerful that it was a saying,
no war could be undertaken without the assistance of the Rothschilds.
They rose to a position of such power in the political and commercial
world that they became the Dictators of Europe.
Vladimir Putin knows the plans of the Rothschilds and Rockefellers
in respect to the Middle East. After the return of Crimea, and
the entry of ISIS into Syria and Iraq, Syria's Assad appealed
for help to Putin. The Russian entry into Syria happened in September
2015. This move checkmated the 2 families' aims for the region.
In 1916 the Rothschilds, through the Sykes-Picot Accord, divided
the Middle East between the Rothschilds and the Rockefellers.
Palestine and Jordan went to the British. Syria and Lebanon went
to the French. The financial oligarchs have long wanted to to
block Iran's oil exports through the Hormuz Straits. Iran's resistance
with the help of Russia has made the Rothschilds furious at Putin."
John Reeves in "The Rothschilds:
the Financial Rulers of Nations"
"The "Club of the
Isles" is an informal association of predominantly European-based
royal households including the Queen of England. The Club of the
Isles commands an estimated $10 trillion in assets. It lords over
such corporate giants as Royal Dutch Shell, Imperial Chemical
Industries, Lloyds of London, Unilever, Lonrho, Rio Tinto Zinc,
and Anglo American DeBeers. It dominates the world supply of petroleum,
gold, diamonds, and many other vital raw materials; and deploys
these assets at the disposal of its geopolitical agenda.
Its goal: to reduce the human population from its current level
to below 1 billion people within the next two to three generations;
to literally ``cull the human herd'' in the interest of retaining
their own global power and the feudal system upon which that power
is based."

"European dynastic families
constitute a financial oligarchy; they are the power behind the
Windsor throne [Britain]. They view themselves as the heirs to
the Venetian oligarchy, which infiltrated and subverted England
from the period 1509-1715, and established a new, more virulent,
Anglo-Dutch-Swiss strain of the oligarchic system of imperial
Babylon, Persia, Rome, and Byzantium.
The City of London dominates the world's speculative markets.
A tightly interlocking group of corporations, involved in raw
materials extraction, finance, insurance, transportation, and
food production, controls the lion's share of the world market,
and exerts virtual ``choke point'' control over world industry."
historian Jeffrey Steinberg
"Club of the Isles is
a vast network of private financial interests, controlled by the
leading aristocratic and royal families of Europe. It is modeled
on the 17th-century British and Dutch East India Company models.
The Rothschild family has been at the financial heart of the Club
of the Isles.
The Club of the Isles is centered in the City of London."
William Engdahl, Executive Intelligence
Review, April 1997
"The Rothschilds are
the wonders of modern banking. Not a cabinet moves without their
advice. They stretch their hand with equal ease from Petersburg
to VIenna, from Vienna to Paris, from Paris to London, from London
to Washington.
Baron Rothschild holds the keys of peace and war. The Rothschilds
are the brokers and counsellors of the kings of Europe and of
the republican chiefs of America."
Niles Weekly Register, Baltimore,
Maryland,1835-36
"The German Kaiser had
to consult Rothschild to find out whether he could declare war.
Another Rothschild carried out the whole burden of the conflict
which overthrew Napoleon."
New York Evening Post noted July
22, 1924
"The House of Rothschild
had through its loans to the numerous small nations of continental
Europe at extremely high interest rates built up what was widely
considered the world's greatest fortune."
The Empire of the City by Edwin
Charles Knuth, 1944
"The Rothschilds have
obtained the control over the European [stock] exchanges which
no party before could accomplish and they now seem to hold the
strings of the public purse. No Sovereign without their assistance
now could raise a loan."
English diarist Thomas Raikes
"The biographers of the
House of Rothschild record that men of influence and statesmen
in almost every country of the world were in their pay."
The Empire of the City by Edwin
Charles Knuth, 1944
"The first occasion in
which Nathan Rothschild assisted the English government was in
1819 - he subsequently issued eighteen Government loans totaling
$700 million.
To the Rothschilds, nothing could have occurred more propitiously
than the outbreak of the American revolt and the French Revolution,
as the two enabled them to lay the foundation of the immense wealth
they have since acquired.
The House of Rothschild was (and is) the ruling power in Europe,
for all the political powers were willing to acknowledge the sway
of the great financial Despot, and, like obedient vassals, pay
their tribute without murmur.... Its influence was so all-powerful
that it was a saying, no war could be undertaken without the assistance
of the Rothschilds. They rose to a position of such power in the

GLOBAL FINANCIAL
OLIGARCHY AND AFRICA
"Rothschild-backed firms
like De Beers control African gold and diamond resources, while
military interventions protect these investments."
Professor Roland Usher in his
book "Pan Americanism", 1913
"Although it is well
known that the Rothschilds controlled the diamond industry in
South Africa, they were likewise preeminent in South Africa's
lucrative gold-mining enterprises. All gold bullion passed through
the hands of three Jewish firms which controlled the price of
gold: Mocatta and Goldsmid, Samuel Montagu & Company, and,
of course, N. M. Rothschild and Sons."
The New Babylon - a book by Michael
Collins Piper, 2009
"South Africa has long
been a focal point of global financial and political manipulation,
largely due to its vast natural resources, including gold, diamonds,
and platinum.
The global elites systematically took control of South Africa's
wealth, the economic coups that cemented their dominance.
South Africa is one of the most resource-rich nations in the world.
It holds:
80% of the world's platinum (critical for electronics and the
automotive industry).
50% of the world's gold reserves (a major backbone of global wealth
storage).
Significant diamond deposits
From the late 19th century onward, South Africa became a financial
battleground. The British Empire, backed by Rothschild-funded
banks, ensured control over these resources, setting the stage
for economic manipulation that continues today.
The Rothschild banking dynasty played a crucial role in financing
Britain's expansion into South Africa. During the late 1800s,
Nathan Mayer Rothschild provided capital for British mining operations,
particularly those controlled by Cecil Rhodes.
Rhodes founded De Beers Consolidated Mines, using Rothschild financial
backing.
1890s: Rhodes, under British orders, pushed to expand territory
into Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia) and South Africa.
1902: The British defeated the Boers in the Second Anglo-Boer
War, allowing full British economic control of the region.
Through De Beers, the diamond trade became monopolized. Although
Rhodes died in 1902, the Oppenheimer family took over De Beers
and further entrenched elite control.
South Africa and much of Africa remain economically enslaved by
Western financial institutions and corporate interests. The same
banking families that controlled Africa's resources in the 19th
and 20th centuries continue to profit today through multinational
corporations and debt dependency."

"The majority of trustees
at the four biggest conservation NGOs in the world are closely
linked to the finance industry.
The backgrounds of the 111 individuals that sit on the boards
of Conservation International (CI), The Nature Conservancy (TNC),
the World Wildlife Fund-US (WWF-US), and the Wildlife Conservation
Society (WCS) reveal that just over half are associated with finance.
They range from the CEOs of investment banks, to the directors
of venture capital firms, to the wives of millionaire or billionaire
private equity execs. Many of these figures are affiliated with
global behemoths such as JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, and the
Blackstone Group. Dozens more are from lesser-known finance companies
that nonetheless manage hundreds of billions of dollars.
Conservation International (CI), The Nature Conservancy (TNC),
the World Wildlife Fund-US (WWF-US), and the Wildlife Conservation
Society (WCS) work in over 100 countries and territories across
six continents, running multi-million-dollar projects that cover
hundreds of millions of hectares. They actively influence national
and global policy, and are a leading voice at multilateral forums
like the UN.
Collectively, the four organisations have an annual revenue of
$2 billion, dwarfing the modest budgets of local, national, and
even regional conservation groups. They have combined total assets
worth over $11.6 billion, a figure higher than the annual GDP
of 20 African countries."

"A report, Unjust Enrichment:
How the IFC Profits from Land Grabbing in Africa, by Inclusive
Development International, says that the World Bank Group has
indirectly financed some of Africa's most notorious land grabs.
The World Bank's private-sector arm, the International Finance
Corporation (IFC), is enabling and profiting from these projects
by outsourcing its development funds to the financial sector.
Tens of millions of hectares of land on the African continent
have been grabbed by foreign investors in recent years. This has
led to loss of life, land, and livelihoods for millions, and threatened
the very survival of entire communities and indigenous groups.
The report is based on a year-long investigation which found that
IFC-supported commercial banks and private equity funds have financed
projects across the world that have forcibly displaced hundreds
of thousands of people and caused widespread deforestation and
environmental damage. In Africa, the investigation uncovered projects
backed by IFC clients that have transferred approximately 700,000
hectares of land to foreign investors.
The projects include agribusiness concessions Ethiopia that were
cleared of their indigenous inhabitants during a massive forcible
population transfer campaign in the area; oil palm plantations
in Gabon that have destroyed 19,000 hectares of rainforest and
infringed on the customary land rights of local communities; and
a gold mine in Guinea that led to the violent forced eviction
of 380 families."
World Bank fuels land grabs in
Africa, inclusivedevelopment.net, May 1, 2017
"In recent years, Africa
has been at the epicentre of an alarming global trend: the land
squeeze. The 2007-8 global financial crisis unleashed a huge wave
of land grabbing across Africa and the world. Now 15 years on,
global land prices have doubled, land grabbing is back with a
vengeance, and farmers are being squeezed from all sides.
Today's land squeeze is escalating dangerously in new and varying
forms - including for carbon and biodiversity offsetting schemes,
financialisation and speculation, resource grabs, expanding mines
and mega-developments, and ever-more industrial food systems.
We are seeing a new rush for land that is displacing small-scale
farmers, Indigenous Peoples, pastoralists, and rural communities
- or removing their control over their land. The consequences
are dire, exacerbating rural poverty, food insecurity, and land
inequality across the continent - and putting the future of small-scale
farming at risk.
Africa is at the forefront of the land grab crisis in the Global
South, with nearly 1,000 large-scale land deals for agriculture
recorded across the continent since 2000. Mozambique is worst
affected with 110 large-scale agricultural land deals, followed
by Ethiopia, Cameroon, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
The land rush is not merely for agricultural purposes. This time
it's also being driven by "green grabs" where governments
and powerful corporations appropriate land for dubious tree planting,
carbon sequestration, and biofuel and green hydrogen schemes (requiring
large amounts of water). These activities, masquerading as environmental
initiatives, are ultimately bad for climate and sustainability,
as they shift the burden for cutting carbon emissions from Global
North polluters onto Africa's lands. They do this while directly
threatening the very communities bearing the brunt of climate
change by displacing local land users and farmers. Already 20%
of large land deals are "green grabs", often targeting
indigenous lands - and this could soar in the coming years. Governments'
pledges for land-based carbon removals worldwide already add up
to almost 1.2 billion hectares of land - about as much land as
is used to grow crops worldwide today.
"Green grabs" bring new powerful actors into Africa's
finely balanced land dynamics - creating a dangerous interface
between small-scale farmers and rich governments, fossil fuels
companies, large conservation groups, and real estate developers.
The land squeeze also involves rampant encroachment for mining,
urbanisation, and mega-developments. Prime agricultural land continues
to be lost to rising urbanisation and large-scale infrastructure
projects, leading to degradation and loss of biodiversity. "
