Maurice
Strong, the Father of America’s Destruction
Richard Salbato 12-29-09
Rothschild, Rockefeller,
Maurice Strong, Al Gore, Goldman Sachs, Mayor
Daley, William Ayers, Saul Alinsky, China and the United Nations equals Barak Obama.
When we look at
what has happened to the American dream, the American Constitution, the
American economy in the past 12 months, it seems that there is a deliberate plan to completely destroy
the entire American way of life and even the country as we know it.
When you look
at the national debt, the bail outs of the banks, the fake stimulus bill, the
health care bill, the coming cap and trade, the loss of jobs at the same time
government workers have increased wages by 100% and more, and the exposed lies
about Global Warming and Obama’s birth and mother, we can only conclude it is a
master plan to destroy America.
But I have had
a problem finding out who is behind all these obvious changes, which are
against the will of the people. In order
to trace “why” and “father” of these problems, I have had to go back 50 years
and found the organization and man behind all this and the front man behind
Barak Obama.
His name is
Maurice Strong, born in Canada,
lived in New York, and now exiled in China, but
still the power behind Obama and the liberal House and Senate of America. To
start to understand this man and his influence read his statement below to a
group of reporters.
“In order to save the planet, the group [GIM]
decides: Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized
civilizations collapse? Isn’t it
our responsibility to bring this about? This
group of world leaders [GIM] forms a secret society to bring about an economic
collapse.”
Maurice Strong - regarding Generation Investment
Management LLP
George Soros
and his Canadian sidekick, Kyoto architect Maurice Strong, are the brains
behind the likes of Al Gore, Mikhail Gorbachev and Barak Obama, all who belong
to the above and the “Chicago Climate Exchange” which will make billions on
climate change.
Barrack
Hussein Obama is the one out in front talking about “Change we can believe in”,
but the senator from Illinois
is only the latest puppet.
We
already know from the Internet that Soros has gone a long way to bankroll
Obama’s campaign, but not so well known is that Soros worked in conjunction
with Maurice Strong to saturate the American automobile market with the
China-produced Chery.
“Like
the bad guys in a spy movie, Soros and Strong teamed up on the Chery, a sort of poor man’s made-in-China vehicle, with
which they hope to flood the U.S.
market next year.”
Strong has been saying all along that China would someday soon replace the U.S. as world
economic leader.
Described
in countless media write-ups as a cross between the Wizard of Oz and Dr. No,
the Canadian oil billionaire was the Secretary General of the 1992 UN
Conference on the environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro where the
unveiling of Agenda 21 took place and subtly began to change the world as the
rest of us know it.
“With
little media monitoring, Strong and Gore are cashing in on the lucrative
cottage industry known as man-made global warming.” “Strong is on the
board of directors of the Chicago
Climate Exchange, described as “the world’s first and North America’s only
legally binding greenhouse gas emission registry reduction system for emission
sources and offset projects in North America and Brazil.
“Gore buys his carbon off-sets from
himself—the Generation Investment Management LLP, “an independent, private,
owner-managed partnership established in 2004 with offices in London
and Washington, D.C.”, of which he is both chairman and
founding partner.”
“In order to save the
planet, the group [GIM] decides: Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the
industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring this about?”
“This group of world
leaders [GIM] forms a secret society to bring about an economic collapse,”
Strong told the reporter in painting his so-called fantasy scenario.
“It’s
February. They’re all at Davos. These
aren’t terrorists. They’re world leaders. They have positioned
themselves in the world’s commodities and stock markets. They’ve engineered, using their access to stock markets and
computers and gold supplies, a
panic. Then, they prevent the world’s stock markets from
closing. They jam the gears. They hire mercenaries who hold the
rest of the world leaders at Davos as hostage.
The markets can’t close…
Two weeks ago, financial analyst Jim Rogers said the bailout of Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac made America
more communist than China!
“This is welfare for the rich,” he
said. “This is socialism for the
rich. It’s bailing out the financiers, the banks, the Wall Streeters… Even ex-president Putin, just today, said as Russia rid itself of Marxism, America is embracing
it.
The
world’s second richest man, worth some $44 billion, gave 85% of his wealth in
July of 2006 to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
The lion’s share of the Gates foundation goes into United Nations sanctioned
projects. Make that the fomenting for One World Government anti-American
United Nations.
As Henry Ford once said:
“It is well enough that people of the nation do not
understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there
would be a revolution before tomorrow morning. The one aim of these
financiers is world control by the creation of inextinguishable debt.”
Welcome to One World Government. Not only has it slipped in through the
back door, it is right here about to keep you awake at night.
Obama, Maurice
Strong, Al Gore, Chicago
Climate Exchange
Judi McLeod Canadian Free Press
“While on the board of a Chicago-based
charity, Barack Obama helped fund a carbon trading exchange that will likely
play a critical role in the cap-and-trade carbon reduction program he is now
trying to push through Congress as president.”
The charity was the Joyce Foundation on
whose board of directors Obama served and which gave nearly $1.1 million in two
separate grants that were “instrumental in developing and launching the
privately-owned Chicago Climate Exchange, which now calls itself “North
America’s only cap and trade system for all six greenhouse gases, with global
affiliates and projects worldwide.”
The “privately-owned” Chicago Climate
Exchange is heavily influenced by Obama cohorts Al Gore and Maurice Strong.
For years now Strong and Gore have been
cashing in on that lucrative cottage industry known as man-made global warming.
Strong is on the board of directors of the
Chicago Climate Exchange. Gore, self-proclaimed Patron Saint of the
Environment, buys his carbon off-sets from himself–the Generation Investment
Management LLP, “an
independent, private, owner-managed partnership established in 2004 with
offices in London and Washington, D.C.,
of which he is both chairman and founding partner. The Generation Investment
Management business has considerable influence over the major carbon credit
trading firms that currently exist, including the Chicago Climate Exchange.
Strong, the silent partner,
is a man whose name often draws a blank on the Washington cocktail circuit. Even
though a former Secretary General of the 1992 United Nations Conference on
Environment and Development (the much hyped Rio Earth Summit) and
Under-Secretary General of the United Nations in the days of an Oil-for-Food
beleaguered Kofi Annan, the Canadian born Strong is little known in the United States.
That’s because he spends most of his time in China where he has been working to
make the communist country the world’s next superpower. The nondescript Strong, nonetheless is the big cheese in the underworld of
climate change and is one of the main architects of the failing Kyoto Protocol.
Full credit for the expose on the business
partnership of Strong and Gore in the cap-and-trade reduction scheme should go
to the investigative acumen of the Executive Intelligence Review (EIR).
Molten Metal Technology Inc.
The tawdry tale of the top two global
warming gurus in the business world goes all the way back to Earth Day, April
17, 1995 when the future author of “An Inconvenient Truth” travelled to Fall
River, Massachusetts, to deliver a green sermon at the headquarters of Molten
Metal Technology Inc. (MMTI). MMTI was a firm that proclaimed to have
invented a process for recycling metals from waste. Gore praised the
Molten Metal firm as a pioneer in the kind of innovative technology that can
save the environment, and make money for investors at the same time.
“Gore left a few facts out of his speech
that day,” wrote EIR. “First, the
firm was run by Strong and a group of Gore intimates,
including Peter Knight, the firm’s registered lobbyist, and Gore’s former top
Senate aide.”
“Second, the company had received more than
$25 million in U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) research and development grants,
but had failed to prove that the technology worked on a commercial scale.
The company would go on to receive another $8 million in federal taxpayers’
cash, at that point, its only source of
revenue.
“With Al Gore’s Earth Day as a Wall Street
calling card, Molten Metal’s stock value soared to $35 a share, a range it
maintained through October 1996. But along the way, DOE scientists had
balked at further funding. When in March 1996, corporate officers
concluded that the federal cash cow was about to run dry, they took action:
Between that date and October 1996, seven corporate officers–including Maurice Strong–sold
off $15.3 million in personal shares in the company, at top market value, $35.
On Oct. 20, 1996–a Sunday–the company issued a press release, announcing
for the first time, that DOE funding would be vastly scaled back, and reported
the bad news on a conference call with stockbrokers.
“On
Monday, the stock plunged by 49%, soon landing at $5 a share. By
early 1997, furious stockholders had filed a class action suit against the
company and its directors. Ironically, one of the class action lawyers
had tangled with Maurice Strong in another insider trading case, involving a
Swiss company called AZL Resources, chaired by Strong, who was also a lead
shareholder. The AZL case closely mirrored Molten Metal, and in the end,
Strong and the other AZL partners agreed to pay $5 million to dodge a jury
verdict, when eyewitness evidence surfaced of Strong’s role in scamming the
value of the company stock up into the stratosphere, before selling it off.
In 1997, Strong went on to accept from Tongsun
Park, who was found
guilty of illegally acting as an Iraqi agent, $1 million from Saddam Hussein,
which was invested in Cordex Petroleum Inc., a
company he owned with his son, Fred.
These are
the leaders in the Man-made Global Warming Movement, who three years later were
to be funding the man who was to become President of the United States of America.
If we follow the time line on where Obama
was during the funding of the Chicago Climate Exchange, he was still a
professor at the University of Chicago Law School teaching constitutional law,
with his law license becoming inactive a year later in 2002.
It may be interesting to note that the
Chicago Climate Exchange in spite of its hype, is a
veritable rat’s nest of cronyism. The
largest shareholder in the Exchange is Goldman Sachs. Chicago Mayor
Richard M. Daley is its honorary chairman, The Joyce Foundation, which funded
the Exchange also funded money for John
Ayers’ Chicago School Initiatives. John is the brother of William Ayers.
What a flap when it was discovered that the
senator from Chicago
had nursed on Saul Alinsky’s milk, had his political
career launched at a coffee party held by domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, and
sat for 20 years, uncomplaining in front of the “God-dam-America pulpit of
resentment-challenged Jeremiah Wright.
Folk were naturally outraged that the empty
suit who would go on to become TOTUS was spawned from such anti-American
activism.
But the media should have been hollering,
“Stop Thief!” instead.
The same Chicago Climate Exchange promoting
public rip-off was funded by Obama before he was POTUS.
Even as
man-made global warming is being exposed as a money-generating hoax, Obama is working feverishly to push the controversial
cap-and-trade carbon reduction scheme through Congress.
Obama was never the character he created
for himself in the fairy-tale version in “Dreams of My Father”. He’s the
agent of Change and Hope for cohorts making money down at the Chicago Climate
Exchange.
The Barbarians are pushing at the gate of
the Global Warming fraud, and to borrow a line from children playing Hide and
Seek, Here they come, ready or not!
History of Maurice
Strong
Today Strong lives in the People's Republic of China, and is
President of the Council of the United Nations's University for Peace. UPEACE is the only
university in the UN system able to grant degrees at the masters
and doctoral. He is an active honorary professor at Peking
University and Honorary Chairman of its Environmental Foundation. He is
Chairman of the Advisory Board for the Institute for Research on Security and
Sustainability for Northeast Asia.
Maurice Strong had his start in business as a specialist
in oil and mineral resources for a leading brokerage firm, James Richardson
& Sons. Moving to Calgary, Alberta, he became assistant to one
of the most colorful and dramatically successful leaders of the oil industry, J.P. Gallagher. At Gallagher's Dome
Petroleum, Strong occupied several key roles including Vice President of
Finance.
In the 1950s he took over a small natural gas company,
Ajax Petroleums, and built it into what became one of
the leading companies in the industry, Norcen
Resources. This attracted the attention of one of Canada’s
principal investment corporations with extensive interests in the energy and
utility businesses, Power Corporation of Canada. It
appointed him initially as its Executive Vice President and then President from
1961 until 1966.
In 1976, at the request of Prime Minister Pierre
Trudeau, Strong returned to Canada
to head the newly created national oil company, Petro-Canada[3].
He then became Chairman of the Canada Development Investment Corporation, the
holding company for some of Canada’s
principal government-owned corporations.
American Water Development
As Chairman of AZL Resources Incorporated and American
Water Development Incorporated, Strong instituted a program to pump underground
water and send it to the suburban Denver, Colorado Springs, and Pueblo. Townspeople of nearby Crestone, Colorado created a grass-roots movement against the business
project. The project was opposed by the Colorado Division of Wildlife and National Park Service, both claiming it would
cause significant environmental damages to nearby wetland and sand dune
ecosystems. After a lengthy trial, Colorado
courts ruled against AWDI and required payment of the objectors' legal fees,
$3.1 million.[4]
Afterwards, Strong was quoted as saying, "My interest in the water went
beyond it being a good business. I saw development of the water as an
exceptional opportunity to apply my sustainable-development principles on a
real-life scale."[5]
Strong first met with a leading UN official in
1947 who arranged for him to have a temporary low-level appointment, to serve
as a junior security officer at the UN headquarters in
In 1971, Strong
commissioned a report on the state of the planet, entitled “Only One Earth: The
Care and Maintenance of a Small Planet” [6]
and co-authord by Barbara
Ward and Rene Dubos. The report summarized the findings of 152
leading experts from 58 countries in preparation for the first UN meeting on
the environment, held in Stockholm
in 1972. This was the world's first "state of the environment"
report.
The Stockholm Conference established the
environment as part of an international development agenda. It led to the UN
General Assembly in December 1972 of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), with headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya, and the
election of Strong to head it. UNEP was the first UN agency to be headquartered
in the third
world.[7]
As head of UNEP, Strong convened the first international expert group meeting
on climate change.[8]
Maurice Strong was one
of the commissioners of the World Commission on Environment and Development, set up as an independent body by the United
Nations in 1983.
His role in leading the UN’s famine relief program in Africa was the first in a
series of UN advisory assignments, including reform and his appointment as
Secretary-General of the UN Conference on Environment and Development—best
known as the Earth Summit.[9][10]
After the Earth Summit,
Strong continued to take a leading role in implementing the results of
agreements at the Earth Summit through establishment of the Earth
Council, the Earth Charter movement, his Chairmanship of the World Resources Institute, Membership on
the Board of the International
Institute for Sustainable Development, the Stockholm Environment Institute, The Africa-America Institute, the Institute
of Ecology in Indonesia, the Beijer Institute of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences,
and others. Strong was a longtime Foundation Director of the World Economic Forum, a Senior Advisor to the
President of the World Bank, a Member of the International Advisory of Toyota
Motor Corporation, the Advisory Council for the Center for International Development of
Harvard University, the World Business
Council for Sustainable Development, the World Conservation Union (IUCN), the World Wildlife Fund, Resources for the Future, and the Eisenhower Fellowships. His public service
activities were carried out on a pro
bono basis made possible by his business activities, which included
Chairman of the International Advisory Group of CH2M Hill, Strovest
Holdings Inc., Technology Development Inc., Zenon
Environmental Inc., and most recently, Cosmos
International, and the China Carbon Corporation.
In 1999, at the request of then UN Secretary-General, Javier Pérez de Cuéllar, he took on the task of trying to restore the
viability of the University for Peace, headquartered in Costa Rica,
established under authorization of the UN General
Assembly.[12]
The UN’s reputation was at risk as the organization
had been subjected to severe mismanagement, misappropriation of funds and
inoperative governance. As Chairman of its governing body, the Council, and initially
as Rector, Strong led the process of revitalizing the University for Peace and
helped to rebuild its programs and leadership. He retired from the Council in
the spring of 2007.
[edit] 2005 Oil-for-Food
scandal and hiring practice criticisms
In 2005, during
investigations into the U.N.'s Oil-for-Food Programme,
evidence procured by federal investigators and the U.N.-authorized inquiry of Paul
Volcker showed that in 1997, while working for Annan, Strong had endorsed a
check for $988,885, made out to "Mr. M. Strong," issued by a
Jordanian bank. It was reported that the check was hand-delivered to Mr. Strong
by a South Korean businessman, Tongsun Park, who in 2006 was convicted in New York federal court
of conspiring to bribe U.N. officials to rig Oil-for-Food in favor of Saddam
Hussein. During the inquiry, Strong stepped down from his U.N. post,
stating that he would "sideline himself until the cloud was removed".
Since then Strong has not returned to his native Canada,
and now lives in Beijing.[14]
Strong was the UN's envoy to North Korea
until July 2005. According to Associated
Press his contract was not renewed "amid questions about his
connection to a suspect in the UN oil-for-food scandal", Tongsun Park, as well as due to criticism that he gave
his step-daughter a job at the UN contrary to UN staff regulations against
hiring immediate family.[15]
Maurice Strong has received a number of honors, awards
and medals. He has received 53 honorary doctorate degrees and honorary visiting
professorships at 7 universities.
We are not going bankrupt, we are already bankrupt
Do you believe everything the government tells you?
Economist and statistician John
Williams sure doesn’t. Williams, who has consulted for individuals and Fortune
500 companies, now uncovers the truth behind the U.S. government’s economic numbers
on his Web site at ShadowStats.com. Williams says, over the last several
decades, the feds have been infusing their data with optimistic biases to make
the economy seem far rosier than it really is. His site reruns the numbers
using the original methodology. What he found was not good.
Maymin: So we are
technically bankrupt?
Williams: Yes,
and when countries are in that state, what they usually do is rev up the
printing presses and print the money they need to meet their obligations. And
that creates inflation, hyperinflation, and makes the currency worthless.
Obama says America will go bankrupt if
Congress doesn’t pass the health care bill.
Well, it’s going to go bankrupt if they do pass the
health care bill, too, but at least he’s thinking about it. He talks about it
publicly, which is one thing prior administrations
refused to do. Give him credit for that. But what he’s setting up with this health care system will just accelerate
the process.
Where are we right now?
In terms of the GDP, we are about halfway to depression
level. If you look at retail sales, industrial production, we are already well
into depressionary. If you look at things such as the
housing industry, the new orders for durable goods we are in Great Depression territory. If we
have hyperinflation, which I see coming not too far down the road, that would
be so disruptive to our system that it would result in the cessation of many
levels of normal economic commerce, and that would throw us into a great
depression, and one worse than was seen
in the 1930s.
What kind of hyperinflation are we talking about?
I am talking something like you saw with the Weimar Republic
of the 1930s. There the currency became
worthless enough that people used it actually as toilet paper or wallpaper.
You could go to a fine restaurant and have an expensive dinner and order an
expensive bottle of wine. The next morning that empty bottle of wine is worth
more as scrap glass than it had been the night before filled with expensive
wine.
We just saw an extreme example in Zimbabwe. … Probably the most extreme hyperinflation that anyone has ever seen.
At the same time, you still had a functioning, albeit troubled, Zimbabwe
economy. How could that be? They had a workable backup system of a black market
in U.S. dollars. We don’t have a backup
system of anything. Our system, with its heavy dependence on electronic
currency, in a hyperinflation would not do well. It would probably cease to
function very quickly. You could have disruptions in supply chains to food
stores. The economy would devolve into something
like a barter system until they came up with a replacement global currency.
What can we do to avoid hyperinflation? What if we just
shut down the Fed or something like that?
We can’t. The actions have already been taken to put
us in it. It’s beyond control. The government does put out financial
statements usually in December using generally accepted accounting principles,
where unfunded liabilities like Medicare and Social Security are included in
the same way as corporations account for their employee pension liabilities.
And in 2008, for
example, the one-year deficit was $5.1 trillion dollars. And that’s instead of
the $450 billion, plus or minus, that was officially reported.
Wow.
These numbers are beyond containment. Even the 2008
numbers, you can take 100 percent of people’s income and corporate profit and
you’d still be in deficit. There’s no way you can raise enough money in
taxes.
What about spending?
If you eliminated all federal expenditures except for
Medicare and Social Security, you’d still be in deficit. You have to slash
Social Security and Medicare. But I don’t see any political will to rein in the
costs the way they have to be reined in. There’s just no way it can be
contained.
The
total federal debt and net present value of the unfunded liabilities right now
totals about $75 trillion. That’s five times the level of GDP.
What can we, the people, do to stop the government from,
you know, taking all our money?
We should have acted 20 years ago. There’s not much you
can do at this point to prevent the eventual debasement of the dollar. This
involves both sides of the political spectrum. It’s not limited to the
Republicans or the Democrats. They’ve both been very active in setting this up.
What can individuals do?
The only thing individuals can do now is look to
protect themselves. I
wish I could see a way, but shy of severe slashing of the social programs that
is so politically reprehensible and would create such problems and social
unrest, I don’t see that as a practical solution.
If you’re a young 20- or 25-year-old guy or gal, would
you move to another country? What would you do?
We still have a great country. We’re going through a
period of economic pain. It’s happened before. This is the kind of thing that’s
taken us decades to get into and it will take us decades to get out. Although
the hyperinflation is going to be limited largely to the U.S., the
economic downturn will affect things globally. I can’t tell you how things will
go with a hyperinflationary Great Depression, which is where I see things
going.
It’s the type of thing that will tend to lead to
significant political change. People tend to vote their pocketbooks. You could have the rise of a third party.
You could even have rioting in the streets. I’m not formally predicting
that — anyone can run these different scenarios. For the individual, what you
need to do, from an investment standpoint, look to preserve your wealth and
assets. Don’t worry about the day-to-day fluctuations in the markets. What I’m
talking about here is over the long haul…
[Gold is] going to be
highly volatile, as will the dollar, over the near term, but longer term,
physical gold I would look at as a primary hedge for preserving the purchasing
power of your wealth and assets. Maybe some physical silver.
Get some assets outside the U.S. dollar. I
might even look to move some assets physically outside the United States.
The key here is to look at a longer range survival package, battening down the
hatches, and preserving your wealth and assets during a very difficult time.
Once you’re through that, you’ll have some extraordinary investment
opportunities, and I can’t tell you what it’s going to be like on the other
side of this crisis.
