Prof. Quigley (Tragedy and Hope): the bankers' plot

[acrobat74]

Prof. Carroll Quigley was a noted Harvard historian.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carroll_Quigley

In his book 'Tragedy and hope' he documents, among other things, the plot of the international bankers to control the political systems of countries by controlling their systems of credit.

In my opinion, this is the core issue behind all the false flag terror operations we've been witnessing. This is the beast.

Excerpt:

The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.

This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations.

Each central bank sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world.

In each country, the power of the central bank rested largely on its control of credit and money supply. In the world as a whole the power of the central bankers rested very largely on their control of loans and the gold flows.

They made agreements on all the major financial problems of the world, as well as on many of the economic and political problems, especially in reference to loans, payments, and the economic future of the chief areas of the globe.

The Bank of International Settlements, B.I.S. is generally regarded as the apex of the structure of financial capitalism whose remote origins go back to the creation of the Bank of England in 1694.

It was set up to be the world cartel of every-growing national financial powers by assembling the nominal heads of these national financial centers.

The commander in Chief of the world system of banking control was Montagu Norman, Governor of the Bank of England, who was built up by
the private bankers to a position where he was regarded as an oracle
in all matters of government and business.

In government, the power of the Bank of England was a considerable restriction on political action as early as 1819 but an effort to break this power by a modification of the bank's charter in1844 failed.

In 1852, Gladstone, then chancellor of the Exchequer and later Prime Minister, declared,

"The hinge of the whole situation was this: the government itself was
not to be a substantive power in matters of Finance, but was to leave
the Money Power supreme and unquestioned."

This power of the Bank of England was admitted in 1924 by Reginald McKenna, who had been Chancellor of the Exchequer, when he,
as Chairman, told the stockholders of the Midland bank,

"I am afraid the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that the banks can, and do, create money. And they who control the credit of a nation direct
the policy if Governments and hold in the hollow of their hands the
destiny of the people."

In that same year, Sir Drummond Fraser, vice president of the Institute of Bankers stated,

"The Governor must be the autocrat who dictates the terms upon which alone the Government can obtain borrowed money."

On Sep. 26, 1921, Vincent Vickers, director of the bank, the Financial Times wrote,

"Half a dozen meant the top of the Big Five Banks could upset the whole fabric of government by refraining from renewing Treasury Bills."

Norman had no use for governments and feared democracy. Both
of these seemed to him to be threats to private banking and thus to
all that was proper and precious to human life.
He viewed his life as a kind of cloak-and-dagger struggle with the forces of unsound money which were in league with anarchy and Communism.

When he rebuilt the Bank of England,he constructed it as a fortress prepared to defend itself against any popular revolt. For much of his life, he rushed about the world under the assumed name of "Professor Skinner."

Norman had a devoted colleague in Benjamin Strong, the first governor of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Strong owed his career to the favor of the Morgan bank.

In the 1920s, they were determined to use the financial power of Britain and the US to force all the major countries of the world to go on the gold standard and to operate it through central banks free from all political control, with all questions of international finance to be settled by agreements by such central banks without interference from governments.

It must not be felt that these heads of the world's chief central banks were themselves substantive powers in world finance. They were not. Rather, they were the technicians and agents of the dominant investment bankers of their own countries, who had raised them up and were perfectly capable of throwing them down.

The substantive financial powers of the world were in the hands of investment bankers (also called "international" or "merchant" bankers) who remained largely behind the scenes in their own unincorporated private banks.

These formed system of international cooperation and national dominance which was more private, more powerful, and more secret tan that of their agents in the central banks.

This dominance of investment bankers was based on their control over the flows of credit and investment funds in their own countries and throughout the world.

They could dominate the financial and industrial systems of their own countries by their influence over the flow of current funds through bank loans, the discount rate, the rediscounting of commercial debts; they could dominate governments by their control over current government loans and the play of the international exchanges.

Almost all of this power was exercised by the personal influence and prestige men who had demonstrated their ability in the past to bring off successful financial coups, to keep their word, to remain cool in a crisis, and to share their winning opportunities with their associates.

In this system, the Rothschilds had been preeminent during much of the nineteenth century, but, at the end of that century, they were being replaced by J.P. Morgan in New York.

Zeitgeist is convoluted pretentious rot - just have a look at some of the achievements of this little lot and you'll see the Zionist right is still very much alive and kicking.

Just like Blair, Victor Rothschild was in the Labour party to destroy it.
