February 28, 2004 journal, do 5 people rule the world, car talk, this is leap year with 29 days in February.  I will quote from the following article by Eustice Mullins on the "World Order: our secret rulers".  Occasionally something comes down the line that is very much in harmony with my subject although maybe not 100 percent in harmony with my mission. "Five men rule the world.  This council of five consist of Baron Guy de Rothschild, Evelyn de Rothschild, George Pratt Shultz, Robert Rossa (from B-u-s-h's family firm of Brown Brothers Harriman) and one vacancy, at this writing, in the past several years, members of the Council who have died include Averill Harriman (of the skull and bones), Lord Victor Rothschild, and Prince Thurn und Taxis of Regensburg, Germany. None of them hold any public office, but they choose who shall hold office in the nation's.  These 5 men comprise the apex of the pyramid of power, the World Order.  We may ask, why should there be  a World Order? Is it not sufficient to hold absolute power in a single nation, or in a group of nations? The answer is no, because the nature of the international travel, international trade, and international finance.  International travel requires that a person may travel in peace from one nation to another, without being molested.  Except in cases of anarchy, revolution or war, this requirement can usually be met.  International trade requires that traders of one nation can go to another nation, transact their business, and return with their goods or their profits.  This requirement too is usually met.  If not, the offended nation can exercise military force, as Great Britain did in the opium wars.  It is the third requirement, international finance which called into being the World Order.  In earlier days, when international trade consisted of barter, payment in gold or silver or piracy, the seizure of goods by force, there was no need for a world arbiter to determine the value of instruments of trade.  The development of paper money, stocks, bonds, acceptances and other negotiable instruments necessitated a power, able to exercise influence any where in the world.  To declare that a piece of paper represented $1 billion of real wealth, or even $1 in real wealth.  An entry on a computer, flashed from London to New York, states that someone owes $5 billion to someone else. Without genuine power banking, no such sum could ever be collected, regardless of the factuality or morality of the debt.  As anyone in the Mafia can tell you, you don't collect unless you are willing to break legs.  The world order is always prepared to break legs, and break them they do, by the millions. What would have happened to the earliest settlers in America if they had gone to the Indians and said "Give us your goods and the deeds to your homes and land, in return, we will give you this beautiful piece of paper".  The Indians would, and did, attack them. If the settlers arrived with an army led by Pizaro or a Cortes, they took the lands without a piece of paper.  The world order rules with its pieces of paper, but behind every paper is a force which can be deployed anywhere in the world.  The force may be disguised by various subterfuges as international agreement, associations are other camouflage, but its base is always force.  The World Order rules through a simple technique, divide and conquer (divide et empera).  Every natural or unnatural division among people, every occasion for hatred or greed, is exploited and exacerbated to the limit.  The polarization of racial and ethnic groups in the U.S. is accelerated by a flood of government decrees, originating in foundation “studies" which are designed solely to set American against American.  Only in this way can the World Order maintain its iron grip on the daily lives of the people”. The above is true at that level but they are figure heads only. They are owned and operated by the secret Temple Crown of the Catholic world power “knights” of Rome Church.
