This a very brief background on the two most powerful financial empires in modern history.

The world has never seen anything like this before. In past history, many other great and powerful financial dynasties existed. The difference between then and now was that the current financial dynasties are global, and operate below the radar.

Their names are well known, and their rise to power is well known. What is less well-known is their 'networks of power': its global reach and its invisible influence. We will, in the near future bring out a special report on these two distinctive networks, their ruling families, and above all, the leading family in each case.

As they grew in size and power, it was inevitable that they would end up on opposite sides on some issue or another. Matters were either peacefully resolved, or at times, it ended up in an economic and financial war.

At times these battles were violent, and always done through proxies.

Our focus here is a look at some of the conflict issues between these two networks.

In respect to Europe, the leading family is the Rothschild family, which has two distinct branches:

the British and French branches...

Allied to this family are some of the old-nobility of Europe and another group of families who made their fortunes in a variety of industries. These all work together.

Likewise, there is an American power structure, mainly based in New York City. This is the Rockefeller family.

Allied to this family are some legendary names in American financial and business history, names that are familiar to many.

Examples of these families are,

  • the Ford of Ford Motors

  • Bill Gates of Microsoft

  • the Mellons of Alcoa

  • the Du Ponts of General Motors

  • the DuPont chemical Company,

...and others.

We will now briefly explain their rise to power.

In studying the Rothschild family of Europe, history has shown us that the family made its initial fortune during the turbulent period of the Napoleonic wars engulfing Europe between 1806 and 1815.

This fortune, managed by the five sons of the founder, grew in size, influence and power in the 19th century.

From finance, the family branched out into many other business activities, gaining a dominant position in each field. One of these fields was the newly-emerging oil business in Baku, Azerbaijan.

The French branch built an oil refinery at Fiume, Italy, on the Adriatic coast, and sourced the oil from Baku (incidentally, this refinery was bombed by the PLO in 1984!). This was in the late 1870s.

So much oil came out of Baku that the Rothschild family had to find outlets for this oil. They found it in Asia, through a trader called Samuel.

This venture eventually grew to become the Royal Dutch Shell Oil Company.

A second venture came from the discovery of oil in Iran, in 1909. This was called Anglo-Persian, then after the 1953 revolution in Iran, it underwent a name change to British Petroleum. Also dominated by the Rothschilds, but the British branch.

Then the third major oil company was started from the discovery of oil in Kirkuk, Iraq, in 1927. This company is Total, a French oil major, and controlled by the French branch.

Within the Rothschild family, the oil portfolio is handled by the French branch.

And now we move across the ocean to the United States. Oil was first discovered in the state of Pennsylvania in 1859. By 1863, a young wholesaler and merchant entered the oil business.

His name was John Davison Rockefeller, a 24-year old, hungry to make his mark. He began to purchase crude oil from the producers in the area and re-sell it. He found it to be lucrative, and chaotic. His ordered mind hated chaos.

After studying the business carefully, John D Rockefeller set his eyes on the refining aspect of the oil business.

Here, let us pause and look at the insight of an English economist J.A. Hobson, who said,

"Each kind of commodity, as it passes through the many processes from the earth to the consumer, may be looked upon as a stream whose channel is broader at some points and narrow at others."

Different streams of commodities narrow at different places.

Some are narrowest and in the fewest hands at the transport stage, others in one of the processes of manufacture, others in the hand of export merchants.

Just as a number of German barons planted their castles along the banks of the Rhine, in order to tax the commerce from west to east which was obliged to make use of this highway, so it is with the economic 'narrows'.

Wherever these 'narrows' are found, monopolies plant themselves.

In the case of the oil industry, the logical 'narrows' was at the point of refining: and inevitably, Rockefeller set in motion his great plan to command the heights of this :narrow', and so control the stream.

So successful was he that by 1890, he was in control of 95% of the oil industry in America, and the largest in the world. In 1886 the net profit of his Standard Oil Company was $15 m, a gigantic sum in those days: where there was no inflation, and no taxes.

Profits were re-invested.

Rockefeller posted his brother, William, to New York City to handle Standard's export sales. The resulting income from the export sales were so huge that the bank handling this account soon grew to be a giant on Wall Street.

To cement this deal, two of William's sons married the two daughters of Stillman, the owner of the First National City Bank.

This bank would later change its name, and now it is called Citibank - America's 2nd largest bank. Standard Oil threw off so much spare cash that it found its way into Wall Street, and then into a host of other businesses.

It is from this alliance between Standard Oil and Citibank that the Rockefeller family came to dominate American finance and industry.

Present-day giants such as General Motors, Boeing, Intel, and many others had not even been born yet. Majority ownership and stakes in these companies, among many others, had Rockefeller money.

Over the past 100 years, these investments grew. And grew...

Do remember, that all the oil then produced and refined, and sold to consumers globally, had only one use- at that time. The product was kerosene, which was used to light lamps to provide lighting.

There was no electricity in those days, so imagine the demand for this product. Humans were able to 'lengthen' the day, and the advantages were too numerous to mention. If they could afford it, kerosene was a 'must have 'item.

It's like having the latest smartphone today - a must have item.

This was in the time period between 1860 and 1905. The combustion engine was invented around this time: and soon cars were being produced. Al of this required crude oil.

By the end of World War 1, in 1918, the strategic influence, power and the potential wealth and power of crude oil became manifest.

The wealth that poured into Rockefeller's empire was mind-boggling. Over the next few decades, the various products refined from crude oil formed the basis of many modern industries.

From plastics, to pharmaceuticals and chemicals, to a whole host of other uses, too numerous to mention.


Conflict #1 - Baku

When Rothschild oil from Baku met with Rockefeller oil from America, a price war broke out. And we now start to detail the conflicts between these two families.

Between 1885 and 1896, each family tries to form a marketing monopoly in their respective zones, but failed. The Rothschilds then began shipping oil, via the Suez Canal, east to Asian markets.

A whispering campaign begun by New York began to cast aspersions on the Jewish race, as both the Rothschilds and Samuel of Shell trading were Jews.

Still, this did not slow down the increasing volumes of oil gushing out from Baku, and clashing with the Standard Oil markets in Asia.

As a last-minute desperate measure, Standard Oil's intelligence network, employed the son of a Georgian cobbler- who went by the name of Joseph Dzigashvali, better known to the world as Stalin!

His mandate was to instigate the oil workers in Baku.

When a revolution broke out in Russia, in 1905, Stalin, along with his team, then proceeded to destroy the oil infrastructure in Baku. Oil production was severely curtailed, although it did rise a bit. It was only in the late 1990s that production began increasing to the levels last seen in 1904.

Remember the Rockefeller family motto:

"competition is a sin".

Another interesting development emerged from this war for control of Russian oil.

The intelligence networks of Standard Oil somehow managed to obtain a manuscript from the archives of the security services of the Czar - then the ruler of Russia.

This manuscript was then passed onto an English journalist, Victor Marsden, who published it in London, in 1905. This manuscript was called "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion".

It revealed the long-term plans of the Jewish ruling elite in Europe. Depicting a large number of plans, introduced to a select few - the ruling council which called itself the "Illuminati", in Frankfurt , in 1773.

The Rothschilds served on the board of this ruling council, some say that they fully control it. And they never forgave the Rockefellers for revealing this plan to the world.

From New York's perspective, whatever would hurt the prestige of the Rothschilds worked fine with them.

Conflict #2 - Mexico

In the same time period as the Baku mayhem, oil was discovered in Mexico.

Oil flowed in such large quantities that it became a place of intrigue, revolution, and counter-revolution, between the American and British oil producers.

Famous names, such as Pancho Villa, were heavily involved ad proxies for either New York or London.

It was only with the outbreak of World War 2, and the nationalization of Mexican oil in the 1930s, that Mexico faded from the scenes for in the battle between these two groups.

Conflict #3- Iraq and Mosul

The First World War claimed the downfall of several empires, one of them being the Ottoman Empire.

In 1915, the British and French had secretly agreed to divide, among themselves the lands of the Middle East that were held by the Ottomans. Part of this was the three provinces that today make up Iraq.

The Northern Province was called Mosul. It was known to have some oil, but the size of these deposits was not known.

During the war Britain seized Iraq from the Ottoman Empire, when its troops marched into Baghdad in 1917. The Kurds in the region were in constant revolt, demanding an independent homeland. After the defeat of the Ottomans, they found their golden opportunity for pursuing their claim for a free state.

But it was not to be. In 1925, the British created a new state that included all the three provinces.

One of the chief causes of the First World War was the Berlin-Baghdad railroad, which would have threatened British control of the Middle East. The war ended that project.

The Germans had formed a company to produce oil in Mosul called the Turkish Petroleum Company.

As a part of the reparations that Germany had to pay, Deutsche Bank had to surrender its 25% stake in the Turkish Petroleum Company (TPC) to the French. This French stake gave birth to the French oil giant, Total.

Meanwhile, the British were having difficulties with the Americans over Mosul. There was intense rivalry - to put it mildly - by the Americans, specifically Standard Oil - to the concessions granted by the Ottomans to the TPC. They were in the same situation as the French: both thought their interests could have been better served had the control of Mosul remained in Turkish hands.

The Rockefellers, through the State department, stepped up the pressure, and in 1923, finally acquired 24% of TPC.

In October 1927, at Babar Gurgur, in Kirkuk, oil was struck. Producing very large volumes of oil, it created a greater rivalry between the British and Americans for control of Mosul.

By now, the Kurds fully understood the value of the Mosul oilfields, and objected to the British oil interests. In 1929, Winston Churchill ordered the Royal Air Force to bomb Kurdish villagers.

Here the Americans, meaning Rockefeller's Standard Oil Group, wanted to grab Mosul for themselves, and leave BP and Shell hanging in the air.

April to June saw the Kurds in yet another American-inspired revolt and directed revolt, but they were not successful. On October, the British granted independence to Iraq. And TPC was renamed as the Iraqi Petroleum Company, or IPC.

The Americans were not satisfied with a quarter share of Iraq's oil, and were after full control. To this end, the Rockefeller- intelligence apparatus started secret negotiations with Iraq's new King Faisal once Iraq was independent.

King Faisal's father was used by the British to throw the Turks out of Arabia (remember Lawrence of Arabia).

When negotiations were entering the final stage, King Faisal, went to Switzerland to conclude the deal with the Americans. British Intelligence got wind of these negotiations, and the Rothschilds decided to take King Faisal "out of the equation" so to speak.

On September 7, 1933, King Faisal was murdered in his hotel room in Berne, Switzerland, and his murder by British Intelligence was made to look like a natural death.

By a strange coincidence, the hotel manager also "died" later that same day. Maybe he saw something he was not supposed to.

Any, New York was not successful. The rivalry between London and New York came to an end, in what is best described as a 'truce'. And the reason for this truce was far away in a country called South Africa.


The South African Connection

Britain had defeated the Boers of South Africa in order to take physical control of its gold and diamond mines.

Its Prime Minister from 1919 to 1924 was Jan Smuts, firmly with the Rothschild camp. An agreement signed in 1919 between the Bank of England with the South African gold producers, which ensured that all gold produced in South Africa would be sold through the Bank of England.

Such control of gold flows into and out of London was to the benefit of London's gold banks, among them the Rothschilds - the largest financial backer of South African gold mining companies.

London's objective was of the highest strategic importance for the future of the British Empire. And South Africa was key to London's future strategy of resuming its previous role as the financial center of the world.

This position was now contested by American finance, centered around the Wall Street interests of the Rockefellers.

Between 1922 and 1924, South Africa was plunged into turmoil. Early in 1925, Smuts was voted out of office, and replaced by J.B.M. Hertzog, who had campaigned against the loss of national economic control and the economic damage caused by Smut' support of British financial policy.

Once in office, Hertzog's first act was to create a commission to advise if his government should continue being tied to London, or New York.

Hertzog's candidate to head this commission was America's leading gold and money expert, Princeton University's professor Edwin Kemmerer.

His job was to bring about an American - dominated - Gold Exchange Standard. This would be in opposition to London.

Little wonder that alarm bells began to ring throughout the British Establishment, and within Rothschild family circles. An unanticipated threat to the strategic interests of the British Empire had come from South Africa, in concert with very powerful financial circles in America, headed by the Rockefellers.

That would mean de facto an American-dominated Gold standard.

For well over a century, the ability of the City of London to stand as the center of international finance had depended on controlling the world's physical trade of gold through London.

London's N.M. Rothschild & Sons set the world's daily price of gold at its bank.

London had been successful because it had, first captured the vast bulk of new gold discovered in California and Australia after the 1840s and later, out of the Boer War, it captured South Africa's huge supply from Witwatersrand.

Much of the history of the British Empire from the 1850s through the 1920s, traced back to this subtle manipulation of physical gold production flows into and out of the London gold bullion market.

Direct shipment of South African gold to New York would have dealt a devastating blow to the plans of the British financier elite to rebuild their dominance after the First World War.

American intervention into South Africa, via Kemmerer and Hertzog, not only dealt a blow to the British Empire, but also threatened to reshape the entire world credit system on Wall Street's terms.

By 1932, the British gave in. They agreed to increase the participation of Standard Oil in Mosul to 40%, provided that New York would leave South Africa alone.

Deal done... And South Africa remained under the influence and orbit of British finance.


Conflict #4 - Rothschilds lose the White House

The Rockefellers gain control of the White House.

In November 1932, the Rockefellers put their man into the White House. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, or FDR. He took office in January 1933.

Among the first things that FDR did, was to break the stranglehold of Rothschild finance over Wall Street. He created the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, to break the power of JP Morgan, the Rothschild's chief money agents in America.

JP Morgan was a wholesale investment bank.

Morgan had the power of the Rothschilds behind him to gather up large amounts and either invest it in certain targeted industries, or to cause gyrations on the stock market. Morgan controlled a number of banks that were the key to its dominance on American finance.

The SEC was mandated to break the power of JP Morgan.

To this effect, a law was passed in the US Congress, called the 'Glass-Steagall' Act.

This separated the investment banks from ordinary commercial banks and insurance companies.

In this manner, the Rothschild dominance of Wall Street gave way to the Rockefeller dominance of Wall Street. Most of the Rockefeller banks were retail banks that dealt with the public, as well as large corporations.

Soon, the financial power of JP Morgan was reduced to its own capital, and was a dying entity in US finance.

FDR did many other things that increased the power of the Rockefeller family, and diminished the power of the Rothschild family, in the United States. In short, the Rothschilds had lost political control in America.

It would be another 65 years later that they would lose financial control of the Federal Reserve, when JP Morgan went bust in 2000, and was taken over by Chase Manhattan.

The new bank would henceforth be called JP Morgan Chase.


Conflict #5 - The End of the British Empire

One of the most significant outcomes of the Second World War was the relative demise of the political power that had dominated the world for 150 years - The British Empire.

Viewed in larger geopolitical terms, the two world wars from 1914 through 1945 could best be understood as "contests for the British succession between Germany and the USA.

This contest was not decided until the end of the Second World War and the unconditional surrender of Germany.

The US establishment and its Washington representatives lost no time in implementing America's imperial succession. Even before the war's end, Washington made clear to Churchill that there would be no respect for traditional spheres of influence in the postwar world, specifically no more British domination of Middle East oil politics, no sharing of atomic bomb secrets, and no more military help.

During the 1930s, the British had created its own economic block, the Sterling Area, along with a system of trade called Imperial Preference that favored the nations of the British Empire.

Churchill did not intend to surrender that protection after the war. For their part, the powers of Wall Street and corporate America were determined to force open access to the protected British Empire.

Quite simply, for Washington to "open" global markets would mean busting up the British Sterling Preference Area, by hook or by crook.

American oil and banking interests emerged from the Second World War vastly more powerful than before the war. A major factor was that it's British and French oil rivals had been devastated and strategically weakened through the war.

Washington did not hesitate to take advantage of their weakness.

After the war, Rockefeller's corporate and banking interests were positioned to dominate the energy supplies of their new American empire. Their handpicked people were effectively running US State Department policy.

Meanwhile, David Rockefeller's Chase Manhattan Bank had managed to funds and financial transactions of key German big businesses throughout the war.

Nelson Rockefeller was firmly in control of President Roosevelt's policy, extending influence over the Americas, opening vast new markets for Rockefeller-dominated oil companies, mining companies, and other interests.

Oil was becoming the essential energy resource, the basis of postwar global growth. The Rockefeller oil majors would hold a tight grip on that power in the new postwar world of the American Century.

Following the Versailles Peace Conference of 1919, the British Empire had achieved its largest geographical reach, a dominion covering one quarter of the entire surface of the world.

A mere thirty years later, by 1949, the British Empire was disintegrating in every region, as demands (very strongly encouraged by American finance) were escalating against the oppressive mother country.

The British Empire was in the throes of the largest upheaval of perhaps any Empire in history.

American foreign policy shrewdly encouraged the anti-colonial ambitions for freedom and independence within the British and French colonial empires, stopping just short of supporting genuine de-colonization in those countries after independence.

Within a few short years, Britain had ceded formal colonial control over large parts of her empire in Africa, the Pacific, and the Mediterranean. It was not done out of any sudden sympathy for the subject peoples.

It was driven by British financial ruin and the unrelenting pressure from Washington, who dictated the reshaping of postwar power relations after 1945.

As Churchill had feared, Washington had indeed fought World War 11 in order to,

"preside over the dismantling of the British Empire", the only power in the late 1940s that could potentially challenge America's domination.

As a consequence of the War, the trading mechanisms of the Empire that had formed the foundation of British financial power had been shattered.

Vast overseas investments had long since been sold to pay Britain's war costs. The final blow to Britain's ambitions to hold onto the shards of global Empire came abruptly on September 2, 1945, when Washington unexpectedly cancelled Britain's Lend-Lease aid.

Since this program started in March 1941, the US had supplied Britain with $31 billion in war supplies and other aid.

This was the equivalent of $450 in 2015 dollars.

The British thought that this aid would be forgiven, and that America would help Britain with further cash.

So, this came as a huge shock to London.

Large quantities of essential goods were already in Britain, or on transit, when Washington terminated Lend-Lease on September 2. Instead Washington offered a $4 billion loan at 2% interest with strings attached.

This ended Britain's preferential trade with its Commonwealth member countries and severely weakened Britain's economic and trade role in the world.

Britain was dependent on the financial support of the US, its financial elite, and the Rockefellers. For its part, the Rockefellers realized that if the US was going to dominate the world, it would need the vast international expertise and cooperation of London.

After 1945, Britain would be permitted to exert global influence but only indirectly, through a 'special relationship' with the US, as its distinctly junior partner.

The financial and monetary pillar of American domination depended on an equally powerful American military role.

After all,

What was to prevent other nations from forming new alliances to challenge America?

What could prevent the former allies of 1945 from becoming deadly rivals a decade or two later?

Washington delivered an answer to those questions only four weeks before she cancelled British Lend-Lease aid. The US had secretly developed the most terrifying weapon in the history of warfare.

Moreover, the political and financial elite of the US would demonstrate to the entire world that they were mad enough to use that awesome weapon on their adversaries.

This was the atomic bombing of two Japanese cities, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.


The Bretton Woods Dollar System

The centerpiece of US economic strategy for shaping its dominance of the post-war world was called the Bretton Woods Agreement - the promotion of an American-defined 'free - trade' and of the US dollar as the sole currency of that world trade.

World War 11 had caused enormous destruction of infrastructure, industry and populations throughout the Eurasian landmass from the Atlantic to Vladivostok on the Pacific.

The only major industrial power in the world to emerge intact - indeed greatly strengthened from an economic perspective - was the United States.

As the world's greatest industrial power, physically unscathed by the war, the US stood to gain enormously from opening the entire world to open trade. The US industrial sector would have a global market for its exports, and it would have unrestricted access to vital raw materials from countries that were former colonies of the Rothschild-controlled European powers.

"Free trade" involved lowering tariffs and removing national protections that hindered the flow of goods, especially US exports, into global markets, or removed barriers to US imports of cheap raw materials from former or existing European colonies.

The European economies had little choice but to agree with the US vision.

Even Britain was forced to take a bitter lesson in humility before harsh American demands. The final agreement for a postwar New World Order in monetary and economic affairs was reached following months of bitter infighting between British and American negotiators.

The final agreements was signed by 29 nations in December 1945 at a hotel in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire.

This hotel was owned by the Rockefeller family. It was a crowning moment for the Rockefeller's Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) 'War and Peace Studies Project' - their dream of a postwar economic empire had been successfully achieved.

The New York Federal Reserve Bank, the private institution controlled by the Wall Street Money Trust since its creation in 1913, was the heart of the system that would now control the majority of the world's gold:

where the principal reserve currency would be the US dollar, and all other countries would have to peg their currencies to the dollar.

The unchallenged role of the US dollar was one of the two fundamental pillars of American power after 1945. The second pillar was the unchallenged role of the US as a military superpower.

While the role of the US dollar as reserve currency gave Wall Street an advantage over potential rivals such as the British Sterling, the German Mark or French Franc, more importantly, it allowed the US treasury and Federal Reserve the uncontrolled power to issue virtually unlimited dollars for international lending, regardless of gold backing, as the US dollar and not gold was the world reserve commodity.

Because of the unique role of the American dollar as world reserve currency, the US was able to finance its growing military expenses abroad by issuing new dollars rather than increasing its own gold reserves.

To get gold was not easy in a world where gold was sought by most other central banks, but dollars could be created by the US Treasury more or less at will.


Birth of the National Security State

In 1946, Leo Welch, then treasurer of Standard Oil Company had this to say,

"as the largest source of capital, and the biggest contributor to the global mechanism, we must set the pace and assume the responsibility in this corporation known as the world - nor is this for a given term of office.

This is a permanent obligation."

In 1948, a top strategist at the State Department outlined the postwar agenda very clearly:

"We have about 50% of the world's wealth, but only 6.3% of its population - in this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment.

Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without any negative results to our national security.

To do so, we will have to dispense with all sentiments and day-dreaming: and our attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate objectives.

We need not deceive ourselves that we can afford the luxury of benefitting the world."

America was to be an empire in much the same way that Britain had been an Empire after 1815, with one significant difference.

America's economic imperialism would disguise itself under the cover of 'spreading free enterprise', and supporting 'democracy'. The term empire was to be scrupulously avoided. They created the deception that there was not an empire, as it did not seek to military occupy other nations.

At least, that was the argument. It was every bit an empire, albeit a less visible one.

The deception was astonishingly successful, in part because the American elite realized the value of giving abundant local spoils to the wealthy and often corrupt national elites in foreign markets they wished to conquer.

The system that evolved after 1945 was one of a single, overwhelming global power, and a growing number of de facto vassal states whose wealthy elite were in one way or another dependent for their existence on the 'good graces' of Washington, the Pentagon, and Wall Street.

The American Century was to be an informal empire of dependent 'client states' rather than occupied colonies, deemed by them to be an outmoded and inefficient model of domination.

Here is where the term "minds of the empire" comes into play.

The colonial powers treated their subjects in a manner close to form of slavery, with 'visible chains'. The Americans removed the 'visible chains' and installed 'invisible chains', by working the con of 'democracy' on the colonized nations.

The slogan of democracy and freedom blinded the people to exchange one form of slavery for another. It is precisely what happened in South Africa, since 1994.

The perception that "snow is black" is still very strong, in South Africa, and in many other countries around the world.

As someone once said:

"The best slave is the one who thinks he is a free person."

Johann von Goethe

American history over the previous century had been driven by an increasingly powerful cartel of financial elites and the large industrial trusts they controlled.

Their interests, rather than the interests of the nation and the population as a whole, defined the strategic priorities of that powerful cartel. Their overwhelming control of the national media allowed their propaganda experts to portray their interests as 'America's interests'.

Most people in the world, including Americans bought this con.

Their economic model was that of the British east India Company, of looting and plundering to exhaustion one region after the next to prop up their empire, leaving behind as little as possible.

For the Rockefellers, the most prominent proponent of this policy, the entire world was considered their 'frontier'.

By portraying their mission after 1948 as a Cold War fought by 'American democracy' against 'Godless communism', they gave their cause of advancing their empire a messianic religious cover that was astonishingly effective for decades.

The American financial elite managed in this way to break the power of its greatest economic rival at that time the British Empire.

In the next issue, we will now see just how much further they went in crushing any opposition from the Rothschild family over its takeover of their global assets.

Conflict # 6 - Break-up of European colonial rule

In the previous issue, we have come to understand the grand plan of the US, in regards to the conquest of the world. And the power of European finance had to be destroyed.

The five Rockefeller brothers were now the rulers of the American aristocracy.

Their father, John D Rockefeller II, divided the world, and gave each son a portion.

The Eldest, John D III, was given Asia.

Nelson was given South America. From 1937 to 1947, Nelson became a master of South American power politics. In these 10 years, he grabbed some of the choicest assets owned by British finance. Within a short time, Latin America became his personal fiefdom.

Lawrence was given Europe.

Winthrop refused to do anything with his brothers, as long as Nelson was in charge.

As youngsters, Winthrop was always made the butt of jokes by Nelson.

As a result, he was given the state of Arkansas. He passed away in the mid-1970s. It was from the state of Arkansas that emerged a future president of the US, Bill Clinton, whose rise to high office was facilitated by the power base of Winthrop Rockefeller.

And, finally, comes David - the youngest. He was given Africa...

When the Second World War ended, the Americans created three new institutions that would serve them well in building up their global empire.

This was,

American pressure on Europe resulted in a loss of their colonial empires.

It was easy, in most cases to dislodge the British. But the French were proving to be stubborn. So, their eviction turned violent.

The Americans, through the newly-created CIA (formed from various parts of the intelligence networks of Standard Oil), began to arm the nationalist leader of Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh.

By 1954, the US had succeeded in throwing the French out of IndoChina.

Next target turned out to be Algeria. This was a bloodier affair, with a final death toll of a million Algerians. But, by the early 1960s the French were kicked out of Algeria.

Then came the turn of Congo, a colony of Belgium. Run by the royal family of King Leopold, Belgium was a new state, created by the French Rothschilds in the 1860s.

When David Rockefeller first visited Africa, in the early 1950s, his mouth never stopped watering! What wealth!

He had to have it. From Cape to Cairo, the Rockefeller Empire swung into action. Country after country slipped out of European hands, and into American control.

Congo was a unique case. It was not run as a country, but rather as a plantation. When it came the turn of the Belgian Congo to be granted independence, the mining cartels then dominating the Congo were tied into South Africa's Oppenheimer's Anglo-American Corporation.

Affiliated with Anglo-American were French/Belgian mining companies linked to the French Rothschilds. They had no intention of giving it up to the Americans.

And so developed a brutal civil war pitting the proxy armies of New York against the proxy armies of London. Eventually the UN stepped in., who head at that time was Dag Hammarsjold.

Dag's brother had earlier formed a mining syndicate called Lamco. This was the designated vehicle by New York to take over the mining assets of London. The province of Katanga was the epicenter of this fight.

Eventually a truce was called, only after British/French intelligence brought down Dag Hammarsjold's plane, in an operation called "Operation Celeste".

There are more details in the Special Report on the Congo - 1950 to 2015.

Conflict #7 - The 1956 Suez War

Nasser took power in Egypt in 1952/3, through a military coup.

He was helped by the CIA. The Americans wanted to end the control of the Canal by the Anglo-French. Nasser was the means to do so. More details are in the Special Report - The Middle East Wars of 1948-1973.

When Nasser was manipulated into nationalizing the Suez Canal, the British and French, along with Israel, invaded Egypt and took control of the Canal.

The Americans were furious, to say the least. Immediately, Washington put sanctions against both countries. Meeting ongoing resistance, Washington then froze bank accounts of the two countries, and threatened an embargo of oil to them.

That did it. Both France and Britain withdrew, followed by Israel a few months later.

London was evicted from a geopolitical prize of the highest order.


Conflict #8 - End of the gold-dollar convertibility 1971

Between 1948 and 1971, Washington used the power of the US dollar to expand the American empire globally.

Starting in the 1960s, the US began to borrow money to finance domestic programs, as well as the war on Vietnam. The result was a huge build up of dollars around the world.

By the rules of the Bretton Woods System, foreign holders of dollars, mainly central banks, could convert their surplus dollar holdings into gold.

By the late 1960s, efforts to try and raise the dollar value by raising the price of gold, were not successful. Financial wars broke out between France and the US.

The British currency cracked in 1968, and attention turned to the US. But, New York was holding firm. No dollar devaluation - meant no rise in the price of gold.

Things were reaching a breaking point between the US and its two allies in Europe - Britain and France. On Friday 13 August, 1971, a high powered delegation came to Washington, demanding they be allowed to convert their dollar holdings into gold, and that it be done before they returned to London.

The amount of gold they had in mind came close to 300 tons.

Two days later, they received the shock of their lives, when President Nixon announced to the world that he had ordered the Gold Discount Window of the New York Federal Reserve to be permanently shut!

Foreign holders of dollars had without warning been robbed of their right to gold by this unilateral act of the White House.

The four key figures behind this advice to Nixon were a small circle of Rockefeller-linked advisors, including,

  • Henry Kissinger

  • George Shultz (later Secretary of State and chairman of the vast Bechtel construction giant)

  • Jack Bennet of the US Treasury who went onto become a director of Rockefeller's Exxon Oil Co.

  • a senior US Treasury official, Paul Volcker (a life-long enabler of Rockefeller interests), who became the head of the Federal Reserve in 1979

The next day, there was jubilation in Washington, and a senior Treasury official exclaimed:

"We've run rings around the British Empire!"

Conflict #9 - The Coltan War

When a new war broke out in Congo to topple its leader, Mobuto, both New York, and London, coordinated their assault on the country.

Laurent Kabila was their man, and Uganda and Rwanda were the troops on the ground. Mobuto was toppled. Kabila was in. The Anglo-American alliance got their hands on Congo's natural resources.

There was one specific raw material that was highly prized by New York.

This was Colombian tantalite, or coltan.

The value of coltan was its use in modern electronic equipment such as laptops, and smartphones.

Both would not have been possible were it not for coltan. This raw material is used in the chips that enhanced the speed of the chips, and reduced electric friction, thus making it a highly priced commodity.

The problem was that the bulk of this coltan lay in the eastern province called Kivu, on the border. This province, per square kilometer, is the richest piece of real estate in the world, in terms of the abundant mineral wealth beneath its soil.

London had control over this area. And they refused to give any share in it to New York.

In mid-1997, US President toured Africa, making stops in South Africa, among other countries. Within a month, President Kabila cancelled the concessions for Kivu, which was given to Banro Resources - a front for Anglo American Corporation. This was June 1, 1997.

Senior South African government officials travelled to Washington to plead their case. They were told in no uncertain terms to 'take a hike'. The response from London was not long in coming.

In August 1997, the Mossad went into action, and targeted two US Embassies in East Africa:

Nairobi, and Dar es Salaam.

This was to show Washington that London was not going to quietly accept the theft of their concession in the Congolese province of Kivu.

Of course, there was always a convenient scapegoat hanging around: the usual suspects - Islamic radicals, in the shape of Osama bin Laden's Al Qaeda.

As of today, the war between New York and London is still ongoing.


Conflict #10 - The Iraq Trap

When the Rothschilds managed to persuade Saddam Hussein of Iraq to market his country's oil in the Euro, rather than the 'hated enemy currency' - the US dollar - Saddam Hussein agreed, and fell into a trap.

Remember, the Rothschilds take the long view, whether it be 10 years, or a 100 years. After all, they have been mandated to complete the mission of the rabbinical leaders, which was started in 722 BC.

In the late 1990s, this meant eradicating an existential threat on Israel's eastern frontier. And this meant the destruction of Iraq.

Rothschild thinking went like this:

"What if we can get Iraq to switch its oil sales to the Euro?"

Knowing New York's stated aim to eliminate any threat to its petrodollar system, America would have no choice but to go into Iraq.

Presto, and Israel's 'heavy lifting' would be done by the Americans, at no cost to themselves.

This is exactly what transpired.

In addition, the Rothschilds had to stoke up the temperature on the Arab street, and turn it against the Americans.

Many around the world knew that the main stream media was biased, and pro-west. The western media cartels were not informing people about what was going on in the region.

Articles, shows, and general reporting was slanted, in favor of the west.

To heat up the opinion and view on the Arab Street, and tilt it even faster against America, the French Rothschilds came up with a brilliant idea.

Create a TV network in the Arab world.

Thus, was Al Jazeera born...

Its success in the Arabic language was tremendous, and it then offered an English version. It took the world by storm. There was nothing like it before. It was like a breadth of fresh air.

We know the result.

America invaded Iraq, toppled the Baath Party and Saddam Hussein, and brought Iraq back to the petrodollar. Say what you like, the Americans are not stupid. Especially in the policy-advisory circles around David Rockefeller.

They devised a plan to hit back at the Euro, and specifically the Rothschild banking system in Europe.

The first step took place in New York, in 1999. The Rockefeller financial warfare specialists went to work. They passed a law in Congress, repealing the Glass-Steagall Act, wherein, the financial sector can merge across all areas.

In other words, there was to be no separation between investment banks and commercial banks. Both could also tie up with insurance companies.

The ready capital of commercial banks and insurance companies would be put in use to weaponize a financial instrument called derivatives in order to achieve their aim.

A year later, using various forms of derivatives as its main tool, they succeeded in bringing brought about the bankruptcy of JP Morgan, in New York.

David Rockefeller's Chase Manhattan then took over the carcass of JP Morgan, and renamed itself JPMorgan Chase.

Why was it so important to the Rockefeller's to take over JP Morgan?

The answer lies in the shareholding of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York - the key component of the Federal Reserve System - America's central bank.

When the Federal Reserve was formed in 1913, the Rothschild-controlled financial firms in New York owned the majority of its shares, while the combined holdings of the Rockefeller Group amounted to 35%.

JP Morgan owned 17% of the Federal Reserve. It was this shareholding that was the target of Chase Manhattan.

With the takeover of JP Morgan, in 2000, the Rockefeller group now owned/controlled more than 50% of the Fed: to be precise, 52%. This gave them a clear majority control of the Fed.

There would be no more obstacles in the way of unfettered Rockefeller of the Federal Reserve Bank, the undisputed leader of international finance.

Starting in late 2001, the Rockefeller Group began the sub-prime housing con. This process resulted in housing loans given to people who were not credit-worthy. Groups of these loans were bundled together, and given a high credit-rating by the two Rockefeller-controlled credit-ratings agencies, Standard & Poors, and Moodys. And with this AAA credit ratings, many pension funds, institutions and banks in Europe bought them.

When the engineered-2008 crash took place, this whole scam blew up. And the bulk of these losses were borne by those institutions holding these worthless mortgages and securities. The resulting losses were huge, running into the tens of billions.

To avert a complete collapse of the European banking system, the Rothschilds prevailed on European governments to bail out the banking sector.

These governments then went into debt, in order to save its banking system. The result was that the financial position of many EU governments deteriorated.

New York had succeeded in delivering a devastating blow to the European financial sector.

The next target of New York was to break up the EU.

The best way to do that was to take out its weakest link.

And that was Greece.

We will continue with the Greek tragedy in issue no 20, dated 25 October, and under the title called "EU Immigration- geopolitical warfare at its finest".

And, finally, we come to the last conflict, which resulted in a total break between the two families - the story of the Golan Heights.


Conflict #11 - The Golan Heights

The war in Syria broke out in March 2011.

As explained in earlier issues, the war was fought to decide whose gas pipeline would be built to supply the EU with natural gas. Iran's, or Qatar's.

That war is still ongoing, and is sucking in nation after nation into it.

What was the key global aim of the Americans? It was to control all the oil, everywhere. This process meant the disruption of energy supplies to the EU from Russia, Africa, and the Middle East.

China was also a target to control its growing economic power. The easiest way to do this was to control the energy routes to China, and its oil at the 'point of origin.'

Russia and China had made alliances with Iran. If Iran were to shift its alliance from Russia and Iran, to the US, it would mean a tectonic geopolitical shift.

This would mean a corresponding loss to Russia and China.

In Russia's case, it would expose its southern flanks to American meddling.

In China's case, it would allow American control of its main energy supplier, and a forced retreat from the energy resources of the Middle East, soon followed by an American takeover of Central Asia.

The Golan Heights is a strategic piece of real estate in the area between Israel and Syria. Captured by Israel in the 1967 war, and heavily fought over by Israel and Syria in the 1973 war, Israel had, nonetheless, managed to hold on to it.

The largest tank battle since World War II was fought here, in October-November 1973. More than 2000 tanks fought in this battle, with very heavy losses on both sides.

A buffer zone, some 22 kilometers wide was established on the Golan Heights, manned by the UN.

The Golan Heights are illegally occupied by Israel. In 1981, Israel passed the Golan Heights Law, imposing Israeli laws, jurisdiction and administration, to the Golan Heights.

In response the UN Security Council passed Resolution 242 which declared Israel must withdraw from all lands occupied in the 1967 war with Syria, including the Golan Heights.

In layman's terms,

Israel is a thief, and refuses to return what it has stolen...

In 2011, Israel granted a US-based company, Genie Oil and Gas of Israel a license to conduct exploratory drilling in most of the southern parts of the Golan Heights.

The company is a local subsidiary of New Jersey-based Genie Energy Limited.

Sitting on the Strategic Advisory Board of Genie Energy are a combination of high - profile people.

From the Rockefeller camp, we find,

  • Dick Cheney (former US Vice President)

  • James Woolsey (former CIA head)

  • Bill Richardson (US State Department)

  • Larry Summers (former US Treasury Secretary)

From the Rothschild camp, we find,

  • Rupert Murdoch (the media baron)

  • Michael Steinhardt (an American financier working for Jacob Rothschild)

  • Jacob Rothschild himself...!

It would be hard to find a more high-powered group than this, sitting on the board of an obscure oil company.

Jacob Rothschild was the secret owner of Yukos Oil, the Russian company owned by convicted Russian oligarch Mikhail Khordokovsky.

Before his arrest, Khodorkovsky secretly transferred his shares in Yukos Oil back to his boss, Jacob Rothschild, in early October 2003. The Rothschilds are giving Putin a hard time over this affair.

Oil was discovered in the Golan Heights in early 2012. Then the Rothschilds, through their mouthpiece, Benjamin Nethanyahu, decided to leave out the Rockefellers, and take it all for themselves.

So what else is new...?

And, herein posed a strategic danger, not only for the US, but for the entire world. The most dangerous equation in the Middle East is not Syria, or Libya, but Israel's quest for energy independence.

What would this imply?

Were Israel to get access to 'free energy, or 'free stolen energy', she would use this to turbo-charge its military machine to destabilize the Middle East, and expand its physical size. Say what you like, or think. There are very few nations or individuals that like the Zionists in the world today.

But they are muzzled by the power and influence of the Rothschild wealth.

As we have said before,

"Israel is the visible tip of an invisible empire".

That empire is the Rothschild Empire...

A comparison would be useful.

The largest single consumer of oil in the world is the Pentagon. It consumes 1 million barrels of oil a day.

Now if Israel gets even 5%, or 50,000 barrels of oil a day, as 'free energy', their physical expansion in the region would shortly follow.

By capturing the oil and gas fields, Israel would then be in a position to 'blackmail' the world into agreeing to accept all those issues which bedevils her:

such as its settlement policy, the Al Aqsa Compound, the treatment and future placement of the Palestinians, its takeover of Gaza, and so on.

That would definitely detonate a global war to the death between the Muslims and Israel.

All the major nations of the world, with the exception of Britain, Australia, and Canada, deep in their hearts pray that Israel does not achieve energy independence.

We have seen how Israel is trying to solidify its control of Gazan gas. With the control of the energy resources of the Golan Heights, they would become an unstoppable force in the region.

Something had to be done to stop it. And here, David Rockefeller, once again devised a brilliant geopolitical play.

The key here was how to stop Israel from proceeding with its Golan Heights play...

As explained, were the US to change Iran's orbit from a pro-Russia/Chinese axis, to a pro-American one, it would be a global game-changer.

The US had tried to destabilize Iran, ever since Khomeini double-crossed David Rockefeller in 1979.

An unofficial state of war existed between the two nations. Iran' economy was under a heavy burden imposed by the sanctions regime on it. The financial elite wanted to break out of this situation.

Their chance came in the 2012 elections in Iran. The new leader was Hasan Rouhani. He was the hand-picked prot�g� of Hassim Rafsanjani, Iran's wealthiest individual, a billionaire, and the number one in Iran's elite.

He is first and foremost a business man. Business and trade with the world.

This would help reduce unemployment, create stability to the rule of the clergy, and make the elite even wealthier. He pressed for an end to sanctions, and pushed for an opening with Washington. Starting just after the elections, with Rouhani as Iran's new President, a back channel was opened with Washington.

Both parties seized the opportunities that this opening would bring.

The Mossad and British Intelligence have eyes and ears everywhere. They caught wind of these negotiations. Nethanyahu tried to sabotage this. This is the background to the unexplained hatred between Obama and Nethanyahu.

New York devised a strategy.

Washington would do a deal with Iran, to remove sanctions, and to trade.

At the same time, it would be in the interests of both parties, the US and Iran, if Iran were to send troops to the Golan Heights to stop Israel going ahead with the development of the oil deposits.

Iran agreed. And sent a force called the Qods Force, headed by General Qasim Soleiman. He is the head of Iran's Special Forces. In addition, Iran would use Hezbollah troops on the Golan as well.

Israel, and the Rothschilds were very, very upset at this latest development.

In early 2013, Israel began to build fortifications to seal off the Golan Heights from Syria, knowing there was little Assad or Syria could do to stop it.

As Genie Energy began moving into the Golan Heights, Israeli military engineers overhauled the 72 kilometer long border fence with Syria, replacing it with a steel barrier that includes barbed wire, touch sensors, motion detectors, infrared cameras, and ground radar, putting it on a par with the Wall Israel has constructed in the West Bank.

Within the national security apparatus of the United States, there are many officials who detest Israel, its intelligence service - the Mossad, and its pro-Israel lobby within Washington.

Time and again, there have been skirmishes in the shadow world that have often led to the deaths of many agents on both sides. When Israel made its decision to 'go it alone' with respect to the oil deposits, this anti-Israel, pro-American patriotic impulse rose to the surface. It was time for payback.

Israel had taken delivery of four dolphin submarines from Germany, over the past ten years. And these have been equipped to handle nuclear weapons. No one knows just how many nuclear weapons Israel really has. Figures quoted have mentioned anything from 200 to as much as 500 nuclear weapons at Israel's possession.

And the craziest thing is that most of these weapons are targeted at America, Europe, Russia, and Asian countries. A handful are targeted at Arab countries. And those at the highest levels of power in the world are fully aware of this.

The anti-Israel faction went into full mode in doing what it could to hamper Israel's quest for regional dominance. The US Navy has the largest number of very advanced submarines in the world.

And they keep a very, very careful watch on each and every submarine in the world, whether it's an ally, or an enemy. In this manner, they were tracking Israel's dolphin submarines. Especially the one off Syria's coast.

The US Navy provided the Syrians with the exact location of a dolphin, and on May 13, 2013, a Syrian anti-submarine helicopter destroyed an Israeli submarine.

The Israeli retaliation was not long in coming. The Mossad, being a Rothschild intelligence agency, was tasked with one mission: "hurt the Rockefellers".

On June, 2013, David's son, Dr. Richard Rockefeller, age 65, was returning to his home after visiting his father, who would turn 98 on the 15th.

His small plane took off from the Westchester airport, and a few minutes later, crashed to the ground, killing Richard Rockefeller. A close and very quite investigation followed.

The results confirmed that this was a Mossad hit.

The murder of David's son created an open break between the two families.

There were many conflicts between the two families, as narrated above.

It never went personal, until now.

There would be no 'business as usual'.

There would be no 'reconciliation'.

This murder signaled a "declaration of war" between the two most powerful financial groups in the world.

Many have said that the event of September 11, 2001, was the day the world changed.

They were wrong. This was the day the world changed. The resulting shift on the international arena would be profound. The best analysts have failed to pick this up.

They don't realize that the Anglo-American special relationship is dead:

and Israel has now become a strategic liability for the US.

Very soon after this, the highest levels of the national security elements acted.

Any Jew, or those with known pro-Israel leanings, working in sensitive positions were fired. This applied to such agencies as the CIA, the Pentagon, NSA, NRO, the DIA, and any other sensitive positions in the State Department, the Treasury, and even the White House.

Israel was now an open enemy of the Rockefeller management office, otherwise known as,

the White House...

Everyone knows that there is open enmity, bordering on hate, between Obama and Nethanyahu. They did not know why. This is the reason!

The United States was poised to attack Syria, in August 2013. They held back at the last minute. Both Israel and Saudi Arabia were disappointed, to put it mildly.

On this point, there are many, many reports of Jewish/Zionist control of American politics. If this were so, then why did America not bomb Syria?

The real answer is that the Jews/Zionists DO NOT HAVE POLITICAL CONTROL of America.

They lost in January 1933, when Franklin Roosevelt became the President.

It suits the Rockefeller network to sustain the myth of Jewish control of America. In this manner, less public attention is focused on them. Likewise, the lie that the Israelis were responsible for the attacks of September 11, 2001, in New York and Washington, was given a strong push.

Why? Less attention would be placed on the Rockefeller network. Remember, long before this attack, senior members of the family were calling this attack "the event".

American policy circles decided it was time to bring Israel down a peg or two. When Israel attacked Gaza for the 4th time in mid 2014, this was done without American consent, unlike the previous three attacks.

The result was an international media outcry against Israel, and the US was encouraging this anti-Israel global rage.

Issues such as Israel's settlement policies, its oppression of the Palestinians, as well as anything to harm Israel's image in the court of world opinion was given weight to.

The Rockefellers went even further, when the UN began to admit the Palestinian Authority into select UN bodies. New York actively encouraged many European countries to start giving due recognition to Palestine.

A third front was opened when American financial authorities began imposing fines on the big global banks.

Although some Rockefeller Group banks were fined, such as Citibank, JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, the greater number of banks hit with heavy fines were Rothschild Banks.

These were,

  • Barclays

  • Royal Bank of Scotland

  • ING Netherlands

  • Soci�t� G�n�rale

  • Banco Santander

  • Commerz Bank,

...and a few others.

In America, Bank of America was within the Rothschild orbit. These European banks are known in the highest financial circles as the Inter Alpha Group, a Rothschild holding.

It is open warfare between the two parties.

In early 2014, Israel went one step further. It hijacked a jihadist group fighting the Syrian Army, renamed it ISIl, or ISIS, and made a grab for the oil resources of Mosul.

More on that in the issue on "The Crisis of ISIS." See issue no 18, dated 25 September 2015.

On October 8, 2015, Yuval Bartov, chief geologist for Genie Energy's Israeli subsidiary, Afek Oil and Gas, told Israel's Channel 2 TV that his company had found a major oil deposit on the Golan Heights:

"We've found an oil stratum 350 meters thick in the southern Golan Heights.

On average worldwide, strata are 20 to 30 meters thick, and this is 10 times as large as that, so we are talking about significant quantities."

This oil find has now made the Golan Heights a strategic prize that clearly has the Netanyahu government more determined than ever to sow chaos and disorder in Damascus and use that to de facto create an Israeli irreversible occupation of the Golan and its oil.

A cabinet minister, Naftali Bennet, Minister of Education and Diaspora Affairs, has made a proposal that Israel settle 100,000 new Israeli settlers across the Golan in five years.

He argues that with Syria disintegrating after years of war, it is hard to imagine a stable state to which the Golan Heights could be returned.

A growing number of voices in Tel Aviv is pushing Netanyahu to demand American recognition of Israel's 1981 annexation of the Golan as an,

"appropriate reward to Israeli security concerns in the wake of the nuclear deal with Iran."

There have been many reports in the media that Israel is helping the jihadists in Syria, around the Golan Heights, with medical treatment, and even military supplies.

Here is the background: Israel has created a jihadist force in the Golan to make sure that Syria, Iran or Hezbollah do not manage to take over the Golan.

And it is providing these jihadists with whatever help they need to ensure this.

In October, 2015, a very interesting revelation was made by a Russian colonel, who came to assess the security issue on the area around the Golan Heights.

He had made a profound discovery, and was amazed at what he found.

He said that the area around the town of Quenitra was not involved in any recent battles, but all he found there was total destruction:

"How can there be such destruction, with not even a wall standing, when no battle had taken place here?"

What he did not know was the following.

Senator John McCain registered a complaint in early November, 2015, saying that US Air Force planes, on bombing missions to hit ISIS targets, were coming back, with a full bomb load.

Why were they not dropping bombs? The US Air Force was actually bombing the area on the Golan Heights, in order to stop and disrupt Genie Energy's drilling operations! Yes folks.

That is correct.

Even many in the media were commenting that America is conning the whole world, when they said that they were bombing ISIS, without any reduction in ISIS capability.

It would only make sense when viewed with the above information. As Russia, Iran, Hezbollah turn their attention south to Israel's borders, the Israeli military is getting nervous.

They would soon form a new Commando Brigade to defend the Golan Heights, and its first new commander is Colonel David Zini.

It would be composed of 4 battalions:

Duvdevan, Egoz, Maglan, and Rimon.

Back to Washington.

When Iran signed the groundbreaking deal with the US and its European allies, Israel tried very hard to derail this agreement. There were threats that the Senate and Congress would not allow this to pass. Israel was counting on its paid and controlled US lawmakers to achieve this.

To neutralize this threat, US intelligence agencies showed some very incriminating documents to Carl Boehmer, the ranking Republican Senator.

Boehmer was the strongest pro-Israeli lawmaker. He was told, in no uncertain terms to resign. If not, these documents will land him in jail.

Very quietly, Boehmer resigned. It was a shock to the Israeli lobby. They had lost their main man. The rest of the lawmakers got the message, and fell in line.

When Putin was in New York, on September 30, 2015, he got the confirmation that Boehmer, was out of the game. The very next day, Russia launched its attacks on the ISIS, and other jihadist groups in Syria.

The geopolitical stakes in the Middle East just got higher.

Add Genie Energy, the contested Golan Heights between Syria and Israel, add a major oil discovery there just as Russia's bombing campaign in Syria goes into high gear, shake it vigorously and we have a prime detonator for World War Three.

Folks that is the background to the "Break-Up".

Shocking, but true...

Hopefully, this would help to reduce the perception in many minds that "snow is not black"...
