All Wars are Planned



During the latter part of the 18th century, Mayer Amschel Rothchild pursued a very successful banking career and used his connections to gain favour with Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau. He was part of one of the richest royal families in Europe and Rothchild prospered as a result but it wasn't to last. The family fell foul of Napoleon and in 1806 Prince William left Germany to live in Denmark leaving his entire $3 000 000 fortune to Rothchild for safekeeping.

For an account of what happened next we can look at the Jewish Encyclopaedia  -  1905 edition Volume 10
 
"According to legend this money was hidden away in wine casks, and, escaping the search of Napoleon's soldiers when they entered Frankfurt, was restored intact in the same casks in 1814, when the elector (Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau) returned to the electorate (Germany). The facts are somewhat less romantic, and more businesslike." 

The last line implies that the money was never returned to Prince William and the encyclopaedia goes on to state:

"Nathan Mayer Rothschild invested this $3,000,000 in, gold from the East India Company knowing that it would be needed for Wellington's peninsula campaign." 

In 1815, Rothchild (and his brothers) supplied gold to both Wellington's and Napoleon's army and began their policy of funding both sides in a war. 

All wars are planned and the banking community love them because they are massive generators of risk free debt which is guaranteed by the government of a country. It doesn't matter if that country loses the war because the loans are given on the guarantee that the victor will honour the debts of the vanquished.
 
While the Rothschild's were funding both sides, they used the banking network they had established across Europe to give them the opportunity to set up an unrivalled postal service network of secret routes and fast couriers. The post these couriers carried was to be opened up by these couriers and their details given to the Rothschild's to always keep them one step ahead of current events.
 
Furthermore, these Rothschild couriers were the only merchants allowed to pass through both the English and French blockades. It was these couriers who also kept Nathan Mayer Rothschild up to date with how the war was going so he could use that intelligence to buy and sell from his position on the stock exchange in accordance with that intelligence.
 
One of Rothschild's couriers was a man named Rothworth. When the outcome of the Battle of Waterloo was won by the British, Rothworth took off for the Channel and was able to deliver this news to Nathan Mayer Rothschild, a full 24 hours before Wellington's own courier.
 
At that time British bonds were called consuls and they were traded on the floor of the stock exchange. Nathan Mayer Rothschild instructed all his workers on the floor to start selling consuls. The made all the other traders believe that the British had lost the war so they started selling frantically. Therefore the consuls plummeted in value which was when Nathan Mayer Rothschild discreetly instructed his workers to purchase all the consuls they could lay their hands on. When news came through that the British had actually won, the consuls went up to a level even higher than before the war ended leaving Nathan Mayer Rothschild with a return of approximately 20 to 1 on his investment. This would now be called insider trading and it is illegal
 
The Rothschild's now had complete control of the British economy and London was the financial centre of the world following Napoleon's defeat. Nathan Mayer Rothchild forced the government to set up a new Bank of England under his control.

The Rothschild's used this power to replace the method of shipping gold from country to country and used their banking network throughout Europe to set up a system of paper debits and credits. This is the banking system of today.
  
In 1815, Nathan Mayer Rothschild made his famous statement:
 
"I care not what puppet is placed upon the throne of England to rule the Empire on which the sun never sets. The man who controls Britain's money supply controls the British Empire, and I control the British money supply." 

It wasn't a coincidence and 100 years later, the New York Times ran a story describing how the grandson of Nathan Mayer Rothschild had attempted to secure a court order to suppress the publication of a book containing details of the insider trading story. The Rothschild family claimed it was untrue and libellous but the request was denied and they were ordered to pay all court costs.

The Israeli Flag


Moses Amschel Bauer was a money lender and the owner of a counting house based in Frankfurt in what is now Germany. In 1743 he placed a sign above the entrance to his business premises and it took the form of a red hexagram

His son, Mayer Amschel Bauer was born soon after and worked in the same line of business. During the 1760's, he was highly successful when working for a bank owned by the Oppenheimer family based in Hanover and he became a junior partner. While working for the bank he becomes acquainted with General von Estorff.

On the death of his father, Bauer returned to Frankfurt to take over the family business and recognised the significance of the red hexagram sign. Soon after he changed his name from Bauer to Rothschild. (Rot is red in German, Schild is German for sign).
 
Mayer Amschel Rothschild discovered that General von Estorff was now attached to the court of Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau. At the time, this was one of the richest royal families in Europe and it gained its enormous wealth by the hiring out of Hessian soldiers to foreign countries as mercenaries in return for vast sums of money 

He reacquainted himself with General von Estorff with the idea of selling him some gold coins and jewellery at discounted prices and as a result, Rothschild was introduced to Prince William himself who was more than pleased with the prices he charged. 

Rothchild subsequently became a close associates of Prince William and expanded his business dealings with him and within his court.  Prosperity ensued and in 1769, he was given permission to hang a sign on the front of his business premises declaring: 

"M. A. Rothschild, by appointment court factor to his serene highness, Prince William of Hanau."
 
In 1806, Napolean stated that it was his,
 
"object to remove the house of Hess-Cassel from rulership and to strike it out of the list of powers." 

On hearing this, Prince William IX of Hesse-Hanau, fled Germany for Denmark and entrusted his entire fortune (valued at $3,000,000 at the time) to Mayer Amschel Rothschild for safekeeping. 

According to legend, this money was stored in wine casks and hidden from Napoleon's troops but in reality it was never returned. Instead it was invested in gold from the East India Company and used to finance both Napoleon's and Wellington's armies

During the next century and beyond, the Rothchild family expanded and used their acquired wealth to extend their power and influence throughout the world.

In 1948, they contributed $2 million to the re-election campaign of President Harry Truman. The sovereign state of Israel was declared soon after and, within half an hour, the USA under President Truman became the first foreign nation to give it recognition.

The Parliament building in Jerusalem,  built  at a cost  of $7 million with money donated by the Rothchilds, was called the Knesset and still exists to this day

The flag of Israel was unveiled and, despite tremendous opposition, it consisted of a blue coloured version of the Rothschild's hexagram sign. It angered many Jews who believed the Menorah was the oldest Jewish symbol in existence and should be used instead. They pointed out that the hexagram was not even a Jewish symbol but had to accept that piper payers normally call the tune
