President Lincoln and the Greenbacks

Mayer Anselm Rothschild was one of the founders of the well known House of Rothchild. In 1790 he said: 

“Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws...”

In 1791, a central bank was established in the USA with a twenty year charter. It was called the First Bank of the USA but the charter was not renewed although a Second Bank of the USA was established in 1816. In 1832, President Andrew Jackson successfully ran his campaign for a second term using the slogan:

"Jackson and no bank"


In 1836, he was the subject of an unsuccessful assassination attempt but again the charter was not renewed.

The Civil War was fought between 1861 and 1865 between the pro-slavery, Confederate South and the anti-slavery, Union North. President Abraham Lincoln led the union campaign and he attempted to raise money to finance the war from private banks based in the north. He was horrified and greatly distressed when bankers tried  to charge an interest rate of between 24% to 36%. President Lincoln was an honest man of great principle who loved his country and he refused to burden it with a massive debt which would be impossible to repay.

After much deliberation, he was advised to print his own currency to pay for the war effort and, with the backing of congress, he printed $400 million of treasury notes which had full legal tender. The notes were printed with green ink on the back and they became known as “Greenbacks”

President Lincoln soon recognised the great benefits of this course of action. He wrote:

“... (we) gave the people of this Republic the greatest blessing they have ever had – their own paper money to pay their own debts...”

The money was debt free and interest free and was used to finance the war effort by purchasing supplies, paying civil service employees and paying soldiers 

Soon after, The Times newspaper based in London printed: 

“If that mischievous financial policy, which had its origin in the North American Republic, should become indurated down to a fixture, then that Government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off debts and be without a debt. It will have all the money necessary to carry on its commerce. It will become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of the civilized governments of the world. The brains and the wealth of all coun­tries will go to North America. That govern­ment must be destroyed, or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe.”


The British Government began to actively support the Confederate South and tried to defeat the Union forces controlled by President Lincoln. They were stopped by two things. 

1.  President Lincoln knew that the British people would not support slavery so he issued the Emancipation Proclamation and declared that slavery was abolished in the USA. The British Government could not then openly support the Confederate South against the wishes of the British people.

2.  The Union forces were blockading southern ports to stop fresh supplies arriving from abroad. The Czar of Russia sent part of his Pacific fleet to the USA with orders to operate under the command of President Lincoln. They docked in San Francisco and New York and acted as a deterrent to the Royal Navy to prevent them from breaking the blockade and helping the South.

The North won the war, the Union was preserved and the USA remained as one nation.

In 1865, President Lincoln said:

"I have two great enemies, the Southern Army in front of me, and the financial institutions in the rear. Of the two, the one in my rear is my greatest foe."

President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated soon after.

Congress repealed the Green­back Law and brought in the National Banking Act instead. The national banks became privately owned and able to issue interest bearing currency. The Greenbacks were removed from circulation as soon as it was possible.

In 1913, Congress passed the Federal Reserve Act which replaced the National Banking Act. It relinquished the power to create money (initially given by the Constitution of the USA) and handed it to a group of private bankers who called themselves the Federal Reserve. 

In 1963, President, John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order 1110 giving him the power to create his own currency. He was assassinated soon after

In 1972, the Treasury Department of the USA calculated that President Lincoln saved $4 billion dollars in interest payments by creating his own currency. Think about how much interest the government has actually paid.

All Wars are Planned - the US Civil War

Otto von Bismarck said in 1876:
 
"The division of the United States into two federations of equal force was decided long before the civil war by the high financial power of Europe. These bankers were afraid that the United States, if they remained in one block and as one nation, would attain economical and financial independence, which would upset their financial domination over the world. The voice of the Rothschilds predominated. They foresaw the tremendous booty if they could substitute two feeble democracies, indebted to the financiers, to the vigorous Republic, confident and self-providing. Therefore they started their emissaries in order to exploit the question of slavery and thus dig an abyss between the two parts of the Republic."

The Independent Russian Bear

Russia has been in the spotlight recently with a big decline in the value of the rouble caused by the massive but mysterious fall in the price of oil. There has been speculation about this being a possible punishment for the Ukraine invasion and the refusal of Russian President Vladamir Putin to toe the line. He has expressed continued belligerence and stressed Russia's independence which is not the first time a Russian leader has behaved this way. 

In 1815, Nathan Mayer Rothschild controlled the Bank of England and by the end of the century, the Rothchild family had established privately owned central banks in most major capitals. This period was known as "The Age of the Rothschilds" and it is estimated that they controlled half the wealth of the world.


 
The Congress of Vienna took place in 1814 and 1815 and this did not go well for the Rothschild family. The intention was to create a form of world government and give them complete political control over much of the civilized world. Most of the European governments were in debt to the Rothschild family with their network of central banks and they intended to use this as a bargaining tool but Tsar Alexander I of Russia (who had not agreed to a Rothschild controlled central bank) would not cooperate and the Rothschild world government plan failed.
 
Nathan Mayer Rothschild was enraged by this and he swore that some day he (or his descendants) would destroy the entire family of Tsar Alexander I. He was true to his word and 102 years later, the Rothschild controlled Bolsheviks fulfilled that promise.

In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln discovered that Tsar Alexander II of Russia was still having problems with the Rothschild family as he was still refusing their continued attempts to set up a central bank in Russia. The Tsar helped President Lincoln by issuing orders that if either England or France intervened in the American Civil War to help the Confederates then Russia would consider it a declaration of war and intervene on the side of President Lincoln. To show his good faith he sent parts of his Pacific Fleet to both San Francisco and New York.

The feud continued and the Rothschild family gathered a group of Jewish spies and sent them to Russia to instigate a revolution for the benefit of the working man. In reality, this was a takeover of Russia by a Rothschild controlled elite. These Jewish spies were given Russian names e.g. Trotsky was originally called Bronstein and the groups were sent to areas throughout Russia to incite riots and cause rebellion.

They developed into the Bolsheviks and they eventually engineered a revolution. Tsar Nicolas II abdicated on March 2 1917 and the Rothschild family ordered his execution along with his entire family both to get control of the country and as an act of revenge. 

The promise made by Nathan Mayer Rothschild in 1815 was fulfilled to show the world what happens to anybody who tries to cross the Rothschild family.

In 1920, Winston Churchill (whose mother was Jewish) wrote:
 
"From the days of Illuminati leader Weishaupt, to those of Karl Marx, to those of Trotsky, this worldwide conspiracy has been steadily growing. And now at last this band of extraordinary personalities from the underworld of the great cities of Europe and America, have gripped the Russian people by the hair of their heads and become the undisputed masters of that enormous empire."

A Russian leader has defied the international community again. 

Will the 

"band of extraordinary personalities from the underworld of the great cities of Europe and America" 

again grip 

"the Russian people by the hair of their heads"

Time will tell
