The fall of a clandestine empire that has shaped modern history
Throughout
history we have seen examples of the birth, development and expansion
of an empire. Eventually they become too large, unwieldly and like an
economic bubble, appear to burst and contract very rapidly, even though
it is usually associated with a long period of decline until they become
unsustainable and then seemingly collapse overnight.
In simple terms, empires usually
collapse because of arrogance, ignorance, self-indulgence and treating
the very people who sustain their empire with utter contempt and
indifference. What distinguishes the current empire, which is now
visibly in freefall, is that to a large majority of people, particularly
in the west, it does not even exist.
They have covertly infiltrated every
aspect of our lives, creating illusions of choice, freedoms and
democracies along the way and yet deftly managed to avoid detection by
being figureheads, who are not even in the shadows. Within their
hierarchy they compartmentalised the structure to support their
operations so well that even within the ranks, it has not been clear
what their modus operandi is ultimately trying to fulfil.
Through the creation of corporations, a
global financial system, globalisation of commerce, creation of
organisations to enforce their aims, control of the mainstream media and
the infiltration of political institutions they managed to control the
shape and destiny of much of the world for decades and beyond. So one
might ask, where exactly did it go all wrong and why are they now in
freefall and soon to be consigned to the history books?
Whilst we can focus on particular events
in history as a pointer to when their bubble burst that rather detracts
from the broader more complex reasons why. Arguably the abandonment of
the Gold Standard set off a chain reaction resulting in what we see
today which is a wrecked financial system and economies. The details of
which warrant another article all by themselves.
The
alternative media continues to push the idea that the empire is
engineering the mother of all financial crashes to ensure they can
implement a one world government, currency and army which would be the
pinnacle of their aims and objectives. However a brief analysis of what
has unfolded in the last decade or so proves that to be totally
inaccurate and principally why they are now on the verge of collapse.
There is no doubt that there has been an
awakening in humanity to this empire although in real terms that is
still a relatively small number in percentage terms. What we can say
though is that the birth of the internet had unexpected and deeply
damaging consequences for the empire. There is also no doubt that the
rise of China and Russia to challenge this empire was a significant
contributory factor. However what ultimately was going to be their
undoing would be a financial war which they have been engaged in for the
last decade or so.
Crucially the financial crisis of 2008
was not engineered by this empire but as a result of reckless
unregulated speculation, they permitted, on Wall Street and elsewhere
which started back in the 1990s. When the US continued to renege on
financial promises it has made to China, they dumped mortgage bonds
which caused the sub-prime crisis, which was the catalyst for the crisis
of that year. If the empire truly wanted to implode the financial
system and impose their one world ideology, that would have been the
perfect opportunity to do so then. However what we saw was blind panic
as they were literally hours from implosion so they implemented a
bailout program designed to save the so called “too big to fail” (TBTF)
banks.
For
the last 8 years since the Lehman collapse, who were made sacrificial
lambs for the “greater good”, we have seen utterly failed Central bank
policy, principally relating to quantitative easing (QE) and zero
interest rate policy (ZIRP) and negative interest rate policy (NIRP).
The whole purpose of these policies was to prop up the TBTFs and the
likes of Wall Street. There was zero intention to see any of that fiscal
stimulus enter the real economy to create growth, jobs and prosperity.
It was merely an exercise in self-preservation even though it was doomed
to fail and why their empire is now on the verge of collapse.
We now see the divergence between market
illusion and economic reality becoming near exponential. Ironically
even within the financial sector there are many who will privately say
the game is up but it is all about confidence and preserving the
illusion to perpetrate the massive “con” trick being served upon the
people of the west, in particular.
What further undermines this illusion
that the empire remains in charge and is engineering the next and final
economic crash is that in the last eight years we have seen the rise of
China and Russia to the point that they are now the dominant players in
the world, but not from a US hegemony perspective. They have built an
alternative financial platform, signed countless bilateral trade
agreements and military cooperation initiatives leading to the birth of a
New Silk Road. They have broadened their remit to now dealing with
international affairs such as in Syria and accelerated the demise of the
dollar as the global reserve currency through extensive
de-dollarisation programs. Furthermore, they have undertaken internal
economic, political and social reforms to strengthen their own nations.
Why exactly would this empire have waited this long to become so weak
that it is now unable to usurp China and Russia to fulfil its one world
agenda?
There
are those who will say that China and Russia are all part of the game
as the empire will shift its focus from west to east. To do so would be
an insult to the history, culture and dynamism of these nations,
especially in the face of extreme adversity. They will and never would
succumb to the empire.
The empire ultimately failed because
arrogantly they believed they were untouchable. Ignorantly because they
believed in self-preservation at all costs and they underestimated the
likes of China and Russia. Their self-indulgence allowed their financial
system to implode and their contempt for the people who sustain their
empire became self-evident to the masses, in spite of them not knowing
what exactly this empire is.
The immediate future remains unclear,
particularly for western nations, but we are now witnessing the final
days of an empire which will be written about with historical clarity
but will leave the question in many minds, how exactly did they get away
with what they did for so long and why did we not see it?
