BEN FULFORD: The revolution continues with shipping freeze, stock plunge, US dollar dumping, $20 oil, attacks on gold mines and more

There is a systematic effort underway to remove all fraud from the world’s financial system. This campaign is now getting to the point where some major financial institutions and countries, including the US corporate government, are about to go bankrupt. This is all part of a hybrid war involving finance, super-computers, special forces operations, news, propaganda, pin-point assassinations and more.



Perhaps the most dramatic, and under-reported, new aspect of this ongoing struggle has been the freeze on global shipping. To confirm reports on the internet of a shipping freeze, this writer called NYK lines, a major international shipping firm, and was told “we cannot speak for the whole world but, as far as our company is concerned, with current shipping prices we will lose money every time we send a ship so we have stopped.” Chinese government sources told this newsletter shipping companies are now demanding to be paid in Chinese yuan and not dollars and that is a major reason for the freeze in shipping worldwide. If this continues, it will lead to empty super-market shelves and social unrest, especially in the US. The announcement last week by Walmart that it is closing 269 stores is just the beginning.


Another major dimension to this hybrid war has been the attack on the oil cartel and control of the petro-dollar. It is this attack, and not oversupply, that is the real reason for oil prices plunging to the $20 per barrel level, and in the case of bitumen, the lowest grade Canadian oil, $8 a barrel level. What is happening is that China is insisting on paying with Yuan for its oil. Furthermore, now that sanctions against Iran have ended, Iran, which has some of the lowest production costs in the world, will be flooding the market with an extra million barrels of oil per day. China is helping both Iran and Russia deal with low oil prices by sending them Chinese goods at cheap prices in exchange for their oil. India is also avoiding the petrodollar when it buys Iranian and Russian oil.


This campaign will continue until Saudi Arabia, the Gulf Cooperation Countries and the big Khazarian banks go under, according to Pentagon white hats. The first Khazarian megabank domino that is expect to fall is Citibank, a Saudi owned bank which is sitting on about $58 billion in losses linked to low oil prices. However, that is just the tip of the iceberg. The Dallas branch of the Federal Reserve Board has told companies to stop marking the value of their oil and energy portfolios to market. What that means is that they are being told to lie about how much they are worth. The Bank of Japan tried the same thing with real estate prices after Japan’s bubble burst but, they learned that pretending reality does not exist does not make it go away.


Furthermore, the Pentagon and agency white hats are seriously contemplating confiscating the sovereign wealth funds of Saudi Arabia and GCC nations like Qatar, Pentagon sources say. The Qatari run Al Jazeera network has been forced to shut down its North American operations as part of this campaign, the sources say.


This week Chinese President Xi Jinping will be visiting Saudi Arabia, Iran and Egypt with the backing of Russia, Pakistan, the pentagon and others to seek a way to find peace and stability in the region. China and the BRICS alliance will be offering massive infrastructure development in tandem with Russian control of oil prices and Middle Eastern security, Pentagon and Chinese sources say. Here is what the Chinese official Xinhua news agency has to say about the visit:

On the military front, Jordan has now joined the Russian Middle East bandwagon and allowed Russia to set up a command headquarters facility in their country. In addition, Turkish overseas bases in Qatar and Somalia are now being attacked by a multi-nation force.


There is also a lot of activity on the gold front. While Russia will take over oil pricing, China will now manage gold, multiple sources agree. The recent attacks on foreigner occupied hotels in Mali and now last week in Burkina Fasso were aimed at taking over control of gold mines there.


There is also a major conflict brewing in Indonesia as the new government there moves to take over the cabal controlled Freeport McMoRan mine in Papua. Indonesia wants to control the gold mine to provide China with collateral for $35 billion in infrastructure development, Indonesian sources say. However, the mine owners are simultaneously saying the mine is only worth $16 billion even as they plan to invest $18 billion in developing it further. See this for yourself in the Reuters article at this link;

The recent bombing in Indonesia was linked to the company’s effort to keep its mine out of Indonesian control. The mine actually has 16,000 tons of gold, the Indonesian sources say.

Furthermore, Pentagon sources have long said it is also the location of a secret Nazi/Khazarian submarine base that was involved in the 311 attack against Japan. The White Dragon Society is offering to help secure Chinese, Pentagon and Japanese military forces to help the Indonesians free the mine from cabal control. CIA sources, meanwhile, say they believe the mine has been used to launder gold stolen from the global collateral accounts, which, if true, is also a good reason to take it out of Khazarian control.


Apart from gold and oil, the other aspect of the ongoing war against the Khazarian mafia is the attack on their drug money. On that front, top US general Joseph Dunford last week promoted his assistant, Admiral Kurt W. Tidd, as the head of the Southern command to take over the battle against the Bush linked drug cartels in Latin America. The pope is helping there by making sure South American drug money no longer goes to the Khazarian mafia.


The loss of money from oil, stolen gold and drugs means the Khazarian mafia is running out of ammunition quickly.


The Chinese devaluation of the Yuan and its instructions to banks to stay away from US dollars is helping finish the Khazarians off. The Khazarians are being forced to unwind their derivatives contracts at huge losses.


The market rigging by Khazarian bank supercomputers is also now no longer working. One sign of this was that recently that the bank AIs increased the amount of a fraud known as quote stuffing fivefold recently but failed to stop stock markets from plunging. Quote stuffing is like having a bunch of insiders bid high at an auction with no real intent to buy in order to fool a real buyer into buying at a high price. It is just one of the many frauds the Khazarian banks are carrying out with their supercomputers.

Now the Chinese led AIIB has officially opened for business with most European countries on board. The Europeans have reciprocated by inviting China to join the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. This means a massive infrastructure boom linking Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa is about to begin. When the American branch of the Khazarian mafia finally surrenders, it is a good bet it will not be long before people and freight can ride a super-fast train from New York to London via Alaska and China. The Chinese and BRICS CIPS alternative to the Khazarian controlled SWIFT international payments system is now also up and running.


The Europeans also showed they were no longer following US Khazarian commands on the political front either. Victoria Nuland, head of Eurasian policy for the Khazarian controlled US State Department, was forced to fly to Russia last week were she was told, in no uncertain terms, that she would have to go along with the French, Russian and German brokered Minsk accords. Failing that, the new right wing Polish government has reached a secret agreement with Russia to split the Ukraine with the old Polish part going back to Poland and the old Russian part going back to Russia. The Khazarian Nazis would be left with a small rump pariah state in between.

In another significant European development, Greece last week signed a military agreement with fellow Orthodox Chrisitian nation Russia. Austria, for its part, has re-imposed border controls in defiance of the European Union. The British, for meanwhile, having already abandoned the US Khazarian mob by agreeing to join the AIIB, are now seriously considering getting out of the failing Khazarian EU project.


It was in this situation that Barack Obama, Presidential spokesperson UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Corporation, made his state of the union speech last week. The speech started at exactly 911. During the speech, whenever Obama was lying, for example when he was talking about Syria or the economy, his eyes were blinking at a furious pace. It turns out he is not such a good liar after all. Another point, for those who missed it, was that when Obama referred to the United States as the most powerful nation on earth, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff refused to stand up.


They know who destroyed the Republic of the United States of America and they will be ready to stand and salute when the US of A has a real president.

One of the significant sources of funds for the Nazionist Khazarian Mafia is the healthcare industry which registered a whopping $3.09 trillion in 2014, and is projected to soar to $3.57 trillion in 2017, in the US alone. We believe that this is just a conservative figure.
