Read What I See

 

Strange question it should not be.  If you ever voted during national elections or engaged in a political discussion the answer should not be “The what?”

     I have to admit that although I had seen the initials before in writings and recall to have heard its full name, until recently I had never taken the time to research it.  Having now realized of how important it is to know of it, I have engaged in conversation with others about it.  When I bring up the subject, I introduce it with one question:  Have you ever heard of the CFR?  I guess you probably already figure out by the title of this article that the answer is “The what?”  Then I repeat the question in the same exact way.  Have you ever heard of the CFR?  Could you guess that the answer is “No”?  Then I go on to fully detail it as The Council on Foreign Relations.

     I find this to be amazing considering that the last two persons that I asked the question one has a Masters degree, the other a PHD and they both answered exactly as stated above.  Did they not learn about while attending school or is it that they do not teach it in our school system or Universities unless perhaps specific studies?

     To carry on a knowledgeable discussion about International affairs, wars that we are involved in, the election of a president, The Federal Reserve, The Treasury, the CIA, etc… without knowing of the CFR, we have to omit knowledgeable.  It would be comparable to talking about cars performance, quality, statistics, consumer reviews, prices, etc… without ever having heard of General Motors or Ford as cars do not just pop out of thin air.

     If you have read my more recent articles you came across it but may have brushed it off in the same way that I did in the past.  If you are not well acquainted with it I strongly recommend that at least for starter you visit the Wikipedia link to get an idea of how it came about, what it is and what it does.  If not interested in reading all of it at least read this small section.  Once you have learned about the CFR and if decide to study it more in depth there is plenty of information about on line.  With research, it is easy to see that not much happens in our nation and political system without the influence of the CFR and its members.

     This article is not written with the intention of being critical of the CFR as you can decide for yourself, although there is plenty of written criticism that can be found on the Internet.  The intention here is to make it familiar to some of the many millions of Americans that are unaware that Presidents, CIA directors, Federal Reserve chairmen, heads of Treasury and many appointees in administrations are CFR members, to the extent that it could almost be said with certainty that they must be.  If you don’t belief, research it.  Visit a previous article that I wrote if you missed it, it goes back to when it was founded.

     I will mention three recent times politicians that are outside their circle.  Ronald Reagan our best president in recent history by most accounts.  Ron Paul, a Congressman who tries very hard with no success to find support in reining the federal government.  When he was running for president, the media ignored him and would not give him the cover that is needed to have a chance at winning.  His most recent project is resolution HR-1207 designed to audit the Federal Reserve but so far with no success.  Last but not least, Sarah Palin, who was and still is the victim of vicious attack by some CFR members and the controlled media.  It scared the living daylights out them when they saw how excited the people were about a non-CFR.  They were not about to let an outsider who they did not control or shared their views be in the position of becoming president.  This is not an endorsement, just trying to make the point.

     Another way of looking at the CFR is taking for instance the turmoil that is going on presently in Iran after the Presidential elections results.  What happens in their country as far as major policies is a reflection of what happens in ours with the CFR. None of the major issues of Iran will change regardless of who becomes president.  It is not the president that controls the country’s policies it is Ayatollah Ali Khamenei who has been the Supreme Leader since 1989 and those who surround him.  The only difference between the Iran’s radical President Mahmud Ahmadinejad and his more moderate opponent is minor policies that directly affect the people.  People under the age of 30 constitute 70% of the Iranian population and they want more freedom from a Theocracy that controls them with a strict Islamic moral code.  Those are the kind of changes that the people are rioting for and are upset as they see their more moderate candidate lose the election.  Whether Iran will continue its nuclear policies or not, has nothing to do with who gets elected as president.  On the other hand, if the protests grow out of the control of the government and go as far as removing Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and the Theocracy then there will be real changes and new policies.

     Our country works in a similar way, in order to have real changes and enforce the will of the people we would have to take the power away from those who control our politicians, news media and finances.  We should by now understand that the Congress or Presidents that we elect have restricted powers and are only the mediators between the people and those who hold the real power.  Nothing can explain that better than the fact that the people on both political parties and those that don’t belong to either are in discontent with the actions of our politicians and politicians could care less.  Those who thought that the Bush administration was cocky and arrogant can easily see that the Obama administration has got him beat.  Those who hold the real power are emboldened and have gotten to believe that the people cannot or will do nothing about it.  They may be partly right because the people don’t know towards who project their frustrations.  The politicians keep point fingers at each other and at Wall Street pretending that they don't know what is going on.  That is why it is important that the people become educated about the Council on Foreign Relations and The Trilateral Commission.  Regardless, even so, we can see what took place with the TEA Party rallies that by some estimates exceeded one million protesters on April 15^th and the one on July 4th is expected to be much larger.  All of this is taking place without political leaders and coverage from the controlled bias media that criticized and try to ridicule the April 15th rallies. 

     Most of our citizens are patriotic and have strong nationalistic sentiments and that should be the main point of unity.  We are one but yet for some reason we are constantly fed division.  Strength is in unity and as long as we are kept divided, we the people will remain weak and unable to impose our will.  The more fractured we are the easier we are controlled.

     A conspiracy in the Kennedy assassination was believed to have been a theory, but later is was concluded that indeed it was a conspiracy.  A theory does not discard the possibility of its truthfulness; it merely implies that at the time it cannot be proven.  One of the big current issues is Globalization and the much talked New World Order.  More control from the UN and gearing for a World Government with a world currency and laws that supersede our Constitution.  Although treated as a theory there is much written on it.  There are so many warnings that it should not be ignored.  Is this is the agenda of the CFR?  Should we surrender our Constitution, our currency and our government to be governed by those whom we don’t elect in a global scale?  Is that what we want?  Is that what you want?  The past four administrations have frequently and vaguely talked of a New World Order and we continue to see our Constitution being trampled. Is it really just a theory when we are moved in a direction that goes against the will of the people?  What are you going to do about it?

Our country has some of the richest, shrewdest and smartest bankers in the world. Do you really think that we are losing our wealth and our economy is collapsing because they suddenly became stupid overnight?  Should those facts be treated as a conspiracy theory?  What are they up to?

    

They may soon find out that we are not what they think we are.
