Britain and America to hold 'war games' to test reaction to bank collapse ( War Games Financial ' False Flag ' time ? )

[Cidersomerset]

Financial Wargames what does that mean...LOL This has potential financial 'False
Flag'written all over it . whether it will be is unlikely with all the people aware of
these psyops. But then again it certainly could be part of some up coming scenario
and theres many to choose from Russia , China Africa and many other flash points
being manipulated to cause chaos and 'proffits' for the PTB that always makes
a 'killing'out of a crisis in more ways then one. As per ISIS and Ebola both great
financial opportunities for Corporate Pharma and the mil ind complex and of course
the 'Banksters' will get there cut......

Britain and America will hold 'war games' next week to test their response to the
collapse of a major bank on either side of the Atlantic.

Chancellor George Osborne and Bank of England governor Mark Carney will join US
Treasury Secretary Jack Lew and Federal Reserve chief Janet Yellen in a
Washington war room on Monday.

The simulated exercise will look at two scenarios – a major US bank with UK
operations at risk and a major UK bank with US operations about to go under.

Britain and America will hold 'war games' to test their response to the collapse of a
major bank, like Lehman Brothers (pictured)

Regulators are desperate to avoid a repeat of the financial crash when the collapse
of Lehman Brothers triggered a crisis around the world.

This resulted in billions of pounds of taxpayers money being used to prop up
stricken lenders including Royal Bank of Scotland and Lloyds Banking Group.

Mr Osborne said: 'We are going to make sure that we can handle an institution that
previously would have been regarded as too big to fail. We're confident that we
now have choices that did not exist in the past,'

'London is a global financial centre, and is both home and host to some of the
world's biggest and most important banks. This brings with it many opportunities
for jobs and growth, but we need to make sure that taxpayers are not on the hook
for future bank failures.


Bank of England governor Mark Carney will join US regulators in a Washington war
room on Monday

Chancellor George Osborne (left) and Bank of England governor Mark Carney will
join US regulators in a Washington war room on Monday

'That is why, in addition to the radical reforms to Britain's banking sector that we
have already introduced, we also need to strengthen cross-border co-operation on
this issue. The US is one of our most important partners, and I'm pleased to be
taking part in this exercise in Washington next week.'

Six years after the financial crisis, experts are keen to prove they have created
rules that will allow them to let a large bank go under without spending billions of taxpayers' money.

They have forced banks to ramp up equity and debt capital buffers to protect
taxpayers against losses, and have told them to write plans that lay out how they
can go through ordinary bankruptcy.

bankruptcy in 2008

Salvaging a bank with operations in several countries - which is the norm for most
of the world's largest banks such as Deutsche Bank, Citigroup Inc and JPMorgan -
has proven to be a particularly thorny issue.

Two potential measures are expected to be announced this weekend, including
banks having more long-term bonds that investors know can lose their value during a crisis, on top of their equity capital.

This would double their so-called Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity.

The second will through a change in derivative contracts, which in their current
form protect investors, and complicate the winding down of a bank across borders.

US Treasury Secretary Jack Lew will also be taking part in the war games in Washington

Federal Reserve chief Janet Yellen will also be meeting regulators for the simulated exercise

THE TELEGRAPH......

Greedy banks leave savers needing 'fourfold rate rise'

Thousands of cuts to returns mean Bank Rate will have to hit two per
cent before incomes reach 2012 levels, research shows


http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02918/scissors_1739158c_2918296b.jpg

Many cuts to savings rates have been conducted quietly by banks

Dan Hyde

‘Savers require interest rates to rise fourfold for their incomes to recover because
banks have made “secretive” cuts to payouts over the past two years, research shows.

Since 2012, severe reductions in returns have occurred despite the official Bank
Rate remaining static, analysis for The Telegraph found.

Some savers will this year receive more than £2,000 less interest for each £50,000
invested than they did two years ago.

Experts said the cuts made by banks were “unjustified” and had forced many people,
particularly pensioners, to curtail spending, shelve travel plans or borrow more.’

it on enemies in order to justify rapid military deployments. With the latest bombing of Iraq under way,
the UK needs a ‘strategy of tension’ to convince the public that war is necessary.’

‘The chief purveyor of human pain and suffering is the Healthcare Industry
itself – it thrives on the pain and suffering of human beings. The Healthcare
Industry is the largest and fastest, in fact, the only, growing sector of the US
economy – It is a $2.88 trillion industry, and is expected to cross the $3.0
trillion mark in 2015, making it almost a 20% component of the United State’s
GDP (it was just 0.25 percent of GDP at the beginning of the 20th century).
This is the only industry in the US that is immune to the overall recessionary
effects of the economy.

The Healthcare Industry, a sector that includes the pharmaceutical industry,
physicians, dentists, hospitals, home healthcare, and nursing homes, projects
its growth to be at an annual compounded rate of 6-7 percent between 2014 and 2017.’

What did he come out with? Someone as big as Icke coming out with something could very well prevent some events from happening. They wouldn't want to prove him right in some cases. Maybe he predicts some things in a preventative manner.

Likely mind control with most predictions like this. Engineered to assassinate the credibility of a source. I agree, it's a bit oversensational.

These are articles from his headline page and are part of the dot connecting of the bigger picture , not his own article
though he would probably agree with most of them. We have been living in a intelligence psyop since 1945 and in
different guises from much earlier. The setting off of the atomic bomb changed the paradigm and the false cold
war, and war on Terror and other agendas being played out to keep the people supressed makes much more
sense to me , and David is at the front line of disclosure along with many other brave folk over the years, but with
the web more people are waking up, which is sending TPTB into overdrive and all these 'fear mongering' engineered
events are part of it, as they have done throughout history. So David is only coming out with what is and has been
hidden in plain sight.

Remember they just happened to be holding emergency evacuation games during 911 and 77, they are telling us to our face what to expect. Ebola and financial collapse (dollar) are currently the most likely tools being used by the Cabal, however the landscape and event can quickly change, you didn’t see that coming did you!!

I agree with omniverse, I think the ability to manipulate our thoughts and desires is being overlooked. I’ve been in communication with my local politician about chemtrails and have tried to educate and encourage him to do some of his own research rather than blindly believing the official sources of information which have been manipulated to achieve the desired outcome of the ruling cabal.

Despite the detailed and overwhelming evidence I provided to him, I thought I might just be able to elicit a more honest response than the standard denial letter spun out by the Government, sadly not.

Amongst other things, I said that he had no right to be a public servant since he was negligent and a danger to democracy, the public as well as himself and family.

When controlling the world it’s more effective to control the leaders of 7bn people. My view is that most politicians have been subject to some form of conditioning and thought manipulation, how else you can explain the mass denial of chemtrails by all politicians, unless we are all delusional.

Despite the threats of losing their jobs and bribes, statistically, you would expect at least a few politicians to speak out, yet not even the leaders of the Green Party in the UK dare say a word.

This might also account for the small numbers of people that are awakened, and even when they are there is a reluctance to do much about it, how many would be prepared to take to the streets or become involved with civil disobedience. I’m now a person of interest, so what, if we’re all on the list what can they do.

The Pentagon’s ‘Operation Dark Winter’: June 2001 Bioterror Exercise Foreshadowed 9/11 and Anthrax Attacks

‘On June 22-23, 2001 – some 3 months before 9/11, and 4 months before the Anthrax attacks
– the U.S. military held a senior-level war game at Andrews Air Force Base called Dark Winter.

The scenario of this bio-terrorism drill was designed to simulate a smallpox attack in three states.
Numerous congressmen, former CIA director James Woolsey, New York Times reporter Judith Miller
(who pushed the Iraq WMD myth, as well as the false link between Iraq and the Anthrax attacks),
and anti-terror official Jerome Hauer all participated in the exercise.

As a part of this war game, scripted TV news clips were made to help make this drill as realistic as possible.’

Dividends of Death: Doing Well in Defence Stocks

Dividends of Death: Doing Well in Defence Stocks

By Binoy Kampmark

Global Research, October 12, 2014


http://www.globalresearch.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/129480.jpg


‘War does what it needs to. It kills. It disrupts. It ruins and maims. And it earns a good dividend for
shareholders who think their continued wealthy existence depends on the profit of the war industry.
While the official definition of a state of war is becoming ever more opaque before legal watering downs
such as “armed conflict”, the money being earned is getting clearer than ever. If you are in the death
business and its various offshoots, you are doing spectacularly well with the noisy trading and the even
noisier consequences.’

Such behaviour goes to show that a fall in military spending does not necessarily equate to a fall in the
business of arming. 2012 was the first year since 1998 that global military spending actually fell, but
that did not stop the 100 largest arms producers and contractors recording $395 billion in sales. The
dip was explained by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute as a lull occasioned by the
withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan. Those figures have certainly changed with the broadening
of conflict in Ukraine and the Middle East.

Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Chicago-based BMO Private Bank, was getting so tumescent at
the latest figures, his talk started streaming with suggestive, meaty metaphors. “As we rap up our
military muscle in the Mideast, there’s a sense that demand for military equipment and weaponry
will likely rise.”[1]

Ablin’s response is the fetishist’s hope that his product is bound to go further than it can. Forget the
human element, and embrace the machine-like logic of destruction. “To the extent that we can shift
away from relying on troops and rely more heavily on equipment – that could present and opportunity.
” Humans, after all, just get in the way.

The log book of slaughterhouse inventiveness has thrilled the arms suppliers globally, but also traditional
suppliers in countries who tend to get rather moral when it comes to violence in other theatres. The most
sanctimonious of all, the United States, is doing rather well for itself, thank you. The dark voice of the
trading scene and death dealer Lockheed was rolling in it. It remains the world’s biggest defence company,
and its existence is based on the most obvious point: it keeps having customers. On September 19, the
price of its shares reached totals of $180.74. Huffing their way along the trail of dividends and death were
good companions Raytheon Co. and General Dynamics Corp.

Others also profit on presumption and fear. Troop movements of an enemy state, or at least one not exactly
in your good books, need monitoring. Machinery sales connected with that are doing well – keeping an eye
on those naughty Russians is bound to keep some pockets heavy with purchase, the delectable spin-offs.

Previous attempts have been made in the fast disappearing mists of history that made the war profiteer the
ultimate criminal, an uncomfortable mix of snake oil merchant and rapacious seducer. Governments would
be wooed into purchasing weapons for some future date of mass lethality, and the only one to really gain
from it would be the arms seller. Contingency here is everything – but the point is that anyone who has such
weapons is bound to, as Anton Chekhov so effectively reminds us, use it. Why load a gun if it isn’t going to go off?

For all its fixations on finding links and conscious efforts as to what lured the United States into the First World
War, the angry deliberations of the Committee of Senator Gerald Nye remain important. The focus of the
seven-member munitions Committee, chaired by the North Dakota Senator, was ostensibly to examine the
roles played by various groups that purportedly manoeuvred the Wilson administration into declaring war on
the Germany in April 1917. While much of this was imputed motive, Nye was very much on the money when
it came to the profiteers.

As Nye termed it on October 3, 1934, war was a form of “incorporated murder” and had taken the lives of
53,000 Americans. On other occasions, he deemed it “insane”, a cruel commercial racket inflicted upon people
and country. They were the busy, and profiting, Merchants of Death. The term itself came into vogue after
World War I, when conservatives such as H. C. Engelbrecht and F. C. Hanighen used it in their 1934 classic
with great effect. Far from it being a screed of the left with enervating pacifist elements, it was a sober suggestion
that the arms industry was a disease of broad proportions, the carcinogenic consequence of militarism and nationalism.
“The arms industry did not create the war system. On the contrary, the war system created the arms industry.”

Modern forms of the defence contracting industry see instances of corruption, and manipulation of government
contracts. As Samuel Perlo-Freeman of the SIPRI Programme on Military Expenditure and Arms Production
explains, “The arms industry has always been associated with corruption both in international arms transfers
and sometimes in domestic procurement.”[2] Arms dealers are the desperadoes of dubious deals.

While no form of righteousness is ever pleasant, the Nye Committee at least understood who its targets were.
If you are going to get on a pulpit and blast the enemy, make sure you use scorn and morality over weapons
and profit – they are not merely kinky targets of the moralists, but logical subjects of opprobrium. As Nye was
attempting to show, by the investigation’s end, “we shall see that war and preparation for war is not a matter
of national honour and national defence, but a matter of profit for the few.”

Arms dealers, whatever fabulous public relations outfit comes to the rescue, are in the business of killing. They
do not facilitate daily living in all its ordinariness, but the taking of life. Those who invest in them are in the
business of investing in war, which should not be seen as some anthropological release for antsy upstarts. Good
for the personal dividend; very bad for the durability and peace of human life.
