CRISIS BY DESIGN:The Untold Story Of The Global Financial Coup
behindthewizardscurtain.com

Finally, a book that reveals the Root Causes of the Worldwide Economic Crash, why it happened, where it is headed and what you can do about it?

With the publication of John Truman Wolfe's original article “The Financial Crisis: A Look Behind the Wizard's Curtain”, the public demand for a more comprehensive exposé on who’s “pulling the strings,” “where the bodies are buried,” and “what can be done about it” was overwhelming.

In the author's own words:

“It was a statement by the president of the New York Federal Reserve Bank in March 2008 calling for a GMA—a Global Monetary Authority—that set off the alarm bells anew.

“A GMA is essentially a global financial dictator.


“And as you likely know, The president of the New York Fed at that time was none other than Timothy “Pretty Boy” Geithner, the current U.S. Treasury Secretary. So, I started a new round of research and writing. Over the next year and a half, I wrote several articles, now chapters in the book, exposing not only what had happened but, of greater concern, why.

“I have written two new chapters for the book, one of which provides real-world suggestions on what people can do to protect themselves financially, as well as actions that can be taken to get Congress to wake up before America loses her financial sovereignty.

“You see, this financial crisis was and is a crisis by design. One of the things that I found in my recent research is that there is an organization behind the IMF and World Bank that is calling the shots, which turns out to be the key puppeteer.

“As chilling as this may sound, a global financial coup has occurred right under our noses.

“And that is the story of this book and what you can do about it.

“I hope you enjoy the read. More importantly, I hope the book helps raise your awareness and empowers you to act.”

- John Truman Wolfe

As chilling as this may sound, a global financial coup
has occurred right under our noses.

As the former Chairman of the Department of History at John F. Kennedy University and as a senior credit officer for two California banks: one in the San Francisco Bay Area, the other in Beverly Hills, John Truman Wolfe has been no stranger to the world of international finance. He is also the co-founder of a Los Angeles based business management company, where, as a registered investment advisor, he oversaw the financial and investment matters of some of the biggest names in Hollywood.

In his own words:

“It’s a coup d’état.

“No, I’m not talking about Honduras. I’m talking about Wall Street, London, and Basel, Switzerland, and the fact that we are in the midst of a global financial coup instigated by a Clockwork Orange gang of international bankers.

“The economic bloodletting has abated for now—at least the media’s promotion of it has. In its place the media fawns on the very people who caused this crisis as they move forward to secure total, global economic control. The carefully orchestrated spin is now designed to create acceptance of their 'restructuring' of the international financial system in order to ensure this can never happen again.

“Yes, I know, it sounds like an outtake from Conspiracy Theory, but I’m not Mel Gibson and you’re not Julia Roberts. And this is not a screenplay.

“Whether or not you accept the idea that the financial crisis was created for the purpose of replacing the United States and the U.S. dollar as the stable point in international finance with a global financial dictator and a new world currency, this scenario—set forth in my book—is now in full swing.”

The Assault on Your Assets Will Not Just Come From Potential Changes in Tax Policy.

“That there will be tax increases is a given. And they will start with the affluent. If you have worked hard and accumulated some wealth in the process, you are a high-profile target for higher taxes.

“There is strong sentiment from the White House on down that if you make decent money, if you have built up some assets, the government should take part of it and spread it around.

“Everyone is familiar with the President’s statement to Joe the Plumber during a campaign stop last October when he said, 'I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody'—everybody being those people who didn’t earn the money but who get some of yours.

“But let’s not quibble about who created the wealth; what’s important is to spread it around, even things out.”

Your government considers you a national resource to be exploited. If you don’t get your money out of the country before the government gets your money out of you, you’re an idiot, and you’re going to get what you deserve.
—The Casey Report, January 2009

“Growing numbers of people are moving assets offshore into gold, silver and stronger currencies such as the Norwegian Krone and the Chinese Yuan. Seeing the coming tsunami of government debt and inflation and potential confiscation of personal wealth, many are turning to offshore jurisdictions that provide privacy and outstanding asset protection.

“But regardless of where you might have this done, bear in mind that Uncle is broke. He’s more than broke, he’s short more than a trillion this year with projections for the same well into the future and I think you would be wise to consider moving some of your assets offshore and out of U.S. Dollars.”

Confiscation of Personal Retirement Accounts

Testimony before the House Committee on Education and Labor last year suggested that personal retirement accounts (IRAs and 401Ks) should be converted into government-controlled accounts called Guaranteed Retirement Accounts (GRAs). They would be managed by that bastion of fiscal propriety the Social Security Administration.

Confiscation of Gold and Silver

“But trillion-dollar budget deficits will require more.

“And as I have made clear, perhaps to the point of ad nauseam, many turn to precious metals during times of economic duress. The point here, however, is that when a government has debased its currency at the printing press, it often takes measures to try to prevent its citizens from fleeing from the currency into precious metals or stronger currencies. One of the measures that has been used in the past is making the ownership of precious metals illegal. This seeks to stop the capital flight from its currency to hard assets.

“With the new bailout-program-cum-stimulus-plan, the budget deficit for this year alone was about $1.5 trillion, with a projected deficit of $1.4 trillion next year.

“Where do they think they are going to get this money? Foreign central banks are dumping dollars like a bad habit, and U.S. Treasuries are now about as welcome as an envelope of anthrax. When the government finishes their spending binge, and wakes up to their eye-watering fiscal hangover, they will turn inward with a vengeance, seeking to filch money from every nook and cranny of the U.S. population.

“It may surprise you to know that laws still exist that give the President the authority to prohibit the ownership of gold, silver and other assets during emergencies. The Trading with the Enemy Act and the International Emergency Economic Powers Act can be used to freeze privately held assets and prohibit their possession anytime the President issues a proclamation of emergency.”

Currency Controls

“Currency controls are yet another way governments try to contain the adverse effects of printing too much money.

“I don’t take pleasure or joy in detailing the economic takeover of the planet by a gang of pinstriped hoods. But these are not normal times and if one is informed, he can take the appropriate steps to protect himself and his family and what assets he may have put away for the proverbial rainy day.”

they create money from nothing - cash and bank credits.


PLEASE do explain HOW they are any different than the examples I gave.

Is it because they have "B-A-N-K" in the name? If you take out a private loan from me you claim no money is created, despite the fact that the note can circulate just like money. So if I legally change my name to CITIZEN A. BANK, will that do it for you? You think its now money?

Or does it require incorporation? Do I need a board of directors? What the heck do you think is the magical difference between debt taken from an individual and debt taken from a "bank".

Or perhaps you think only a bank can make money, because that is the legal structure in the USA of our fractional reserve banking. I'd hope its clear that on the island, USA banking laws don't apply. I'm trying to show you how systems work, not what country X's laws say. However, the laws of the USA don't exclude private debt obligations anyway, and these do create tradeable money. The fact that it is not part of M0 which AFAIK is what you think "money" is, is quite irrelevant. Thats part of my point, in the USA there is a shadow monetary system of private debt, i.e. debt money created without your "elites" involved at all. And it appears to me to be of significant size, even though not reported in the "money" totals of the fractional reserve banking system, because of course, it is outside of that system.
