Sept. 29, 2006 -- When you understand how the recent attack on Lebanon fits into the "Grand Plan" for the Middle East, you have an immediate and substantial advantage over other investors in the Energy and Precious Metals sectors.
In order to comprehend what is going on in the Middle East and in the wider world for that matter it is necessary to have a grasp of certain realities. For reasons which we will not go into here, the countries of Israel, the United Kingdom and the United States constitute an "Axis", and they will hereafter be referred to as "The Axis". The elites who control these countries are one and the same, they have identical objectives and move as one. This is not to say, however, that these same elites don't control or partially control many other countries, they do, of course, as they also control many world bodies such as the United Nations, which they have effectively neutered and reduced to a costly talking shop. But their "centre of gravity", their "home turf" is clearly these three countries.
The UK has an interesting geopolitical role to play within the Axis power bloc. One of its main functions is to serve as the Loyal Lieutenant of the United States, and so give much needed credibility to the latter's policies and actions. Thus, when the United States forces invaded Iraq, the addition of forces from sidekick Britain, and token support from a ragbag of relatively minor states such as Australia and Poland trying to curry favor with the Axis, enabled CNN to label the invading force "The Coalition", a term used probably thousands of times in the weeks and months that followed, and which, from a propaganda perspective, sounds a whole lot better than "The US Invasion Force". The Prime Minister of Great Britain, Tony Blair, has the distinction of being the leader who presided over the final stages of the transformation of the British Labour party from a party representing the interests of "the working man", as it did many years ago, to a party completely in the control of the Axis elites, which is not surprising really as Tony Blair himself has been initiated into the inner circles of the elites. An immensely ambitious man, Mr Blair found he had hit an "absolute ceiling" when he became Prime Minister of Britain. He could go no higher - the only way he could aggrandize himself any further was by rubbing shoulders with the leader of the most powerful nation on earth, the United States, which put him in the rather awkward position of chummying up to a man with an IQ of 92 who has difficulty stringing a sentence together and who makes most other world leaders cringe. Fortunately for Mr Blair, he has a hide like an Ox. Why the leaders of the Axis elites have decided to have a man such as George W Bush as President of the United States, a man who brings disgrace and ridicule upon his country, remains a mystery. Some think it was a result of chance, a bizarre accident of circumstance, but the elites aren't known for leaving such matters to chance. One possible explanation is that the outlandish policies of the past 5 years or so would seem more acceptable and normal with a man like this at the helm. While the Patriot Acts have laid the foundations of a Police State in the US, the UK is actually more advanced in this regard. There are 7 million and upwards CCTV cameras in Britain for a population of 60 million, and the average citizen is filmed by 300 cameras every day. The roads are bristling with thousands of speed cameras. Cameras are everywhere, on high rise buildings and on top of huge masts etc. It's an exhibitionists paradise.
So, what are the prime objectives of the elites within The Axis? One objective is to achieve complete control over their own populations, in a manner that enables them to concentrate as much power and wealth into their own hands as possible. Another objective is the creation of a world government, so that they can exercise control not just over a group of countries, but the whole world. It would appear that these particular elites have not infiltrated and do not control up-and-coming countries such as China, India and Russia, who could conceivably constitute an opposing power bloc, therefore these countries will have to be initially contained before later being forced to kneel before the might of The Axis. This at least partially explains three things that are otherwise inexplicable - the gargantuan US "defense" budget, which after the end of the cold war should have contracted, not expanded, thus yielding a "peace dividend" for US taxpayers, the astonishing proliferation of US military bases across the Middle East and Central Asia, and finally the rolling takeover of the Middle East. Ordinary voters within the Axis countries clearly would not accept or condone the actions of the elites if they knew the real reasons for them, and might get rebellious, hence the need to invent a story which they can believe in - "The War on Terror", which is a smokescreen of cartoon book simplicity, which is what the masses need, as they are unable to grasp complex concepts. The term "War on Terror" is itself ludicrous and is clearly a crude slogan designed to appeal to the masses. The attacks on September 11th 2001 served three principal purposes - they enabled the rolling takeover of the Middle East to get underway in earnest, starting with Afghanistan and moving on to Iraq, under cover of The War on Terror, and they enabled the passing of The Patriot Acts, which have turned the Constitution of the United States into nothing more than an interesting historical document. These Acts have created a full blown Police State in waiting. One more major "terrorist" attack and the numerous draconian clauses lying dormant within these Acts can be invoked and a state of Martial Law may be declared at will. "Holding Centers" for dissenters have been under construction across the United States for some time, for the benefit of those whose views do not concur with those of their rulers. The borders can be sealed instantly, unless you fancy strolling over into Mexico, that is. The third main "benefit" is that they allowed more power and wealth to be channeled to the voracious Military-Industrial complex.
