The ultimate patriotic act is to invest the life savings in Gold & Silver, which does honor to real money, shows disdain for paper merchants who rule the central banks, and forces nations to put forth honest sound money in usage. It is important to recall the 9/11 event, however based in reality, not the official story. Honor should be given to the 2500 victims of the mass murder event. The official story makes far less sense than the Kennedy assassination, while the two events appear to be front and back bookends of the same Fascist takeover of the United States Govt.

The Patriot Act was a fascist manifesto, much like the Enabling Act installed in Germany over seven decades ago. The two acts have a 90% correlation and overlap, yet the American public remains largely in the dark on the similarity in template. The USCongress passed the controversial Patriot Act, which has totally opposite direction to patriotism, under threat of anthrax in their ventilation system (rumored to be engineered by the FBI). The creation of the Homeland Security Agency should ring loud gongs about the Gestapo similarities. That the US & London & Swiss bankers are fascists with roots to 1930 fascists should also be brought to public attention. The US bankers on Wall Street actually had loans extended to the German Nazis, a fact the public seems to overlook. Operation Paperclip, which opened the US gates to the several hundred bankers, scientists, and industrial captains should have been a wakeup call to Americans, but they remain asleep. Imagine a nation that makes a mockery of citizens seeking the truth on the event, calling them disparagingly the Truthers. Recall that truth is the enemy of fascist regimes, and the early victim of any war.

The 9/11 event was the coming out party for the American Fascists. It was also a complex sequence of criminal events, to abrogate $230 billion in Russian bonds, to wipe clean the Black Eagle Fund on gold obligations.

KENNEDY KILLED TO DISCARD GOLD STANDARD

KENNEDY KILLED TO PLANT FASCIST SEEDS

The theory is simple, makes sense, and is logical. The US Leadership turned fascist long ago, and took control of the USGovt at the highest levels of the government. They dominated totally after JFKennedy was removed in 1963. Kennedy wanted to disband the CIA and tried to re-install the Silver Certificates as currency instead of Federal Reserve Notes as currency. Notice the string of consistent fascist regimes supported by the US in the last few decades, always the fascist brutal regimes, pitted against the communists. One could produce a list of 20 such nations, many in South America. The US has been deeply committed to some war, much further and deeper than the Cold War, for a period including decades. The true ugly fact is that the fascists conquered the US through the White House coup d’etat, the narco security agencies, and the controlled oligopoly of media networks. The reality goes beyond 9/11, as the USGovt has been under fascist control for 50 years. The death of Kennedy marks the beginning of the fascist lineage of USGovt and its selected presidents. Obama reigns over the systemic breakdown, for which he surely gave a few pushes. The USTreasury Bond market is fracturing on his watch, while the police state is being installed on his watch.

Nixon made a deal with the devil to cooperate with the coup d’etat and in return dropped the Gold Standard. Recall that Nixon was dead political timber until revived by a cooperative press. Nixon then established the NSA, set up as the uber-Gestapo. The war theme has become part of the US social, commercial, and sport fabric. Even the USOpen tennis tournament had an honor guard and giant flag folding ceremony. The regular war footing is evident with every hot spot on earth, with 170 USMilitary bases scattered around the globe. The military drones killing civilians (in foreign nations and soon possibly inside the US), pervasive eavesdropping (overseas and at home), constant high security alert, the alienation will all nations including allies, the airport checks, the difficulty to renew passports, the theft of private accounts, these are the tell-tale signals of a fascist regime in power.

FASCIST BUSINESS MODEL & USDOLLAR & GOLD

The climax of the fascist seeds has been the Fascist Business Model, whose tree of corruption has indeed born fruit. But it is not edible, cannot produce jobs, and has resulted in the magnificent demolition of the USEconomy. The reverence paid to the financial sector stands as a defiant elite gesture of neglect paid to the millions of workers whose jobs are at risk, after their homes have lost equity. All stimulus is intentionally kept from Main Street, vast channels of liquidity obstructed like with pride. The $260 billion in fines and penalties directed at the Wall Street banks have not put them out of business. Rather the USFed and USGovt have covered their bills, along with the shareholders. Consequential costs from criminal fraud and thefts are a mere cost of doing business. The climax is the bitter fruit from the fascist tree, which will hasten very soon the demise of the USDollar and the resurrection from the charred treasury of the golden eagle (phoenix), as the Gold Standard is inevitable. The United States will be nearly the last nation to adopt the Gold Standard in remedy.

The link to gold from the entire 9/11 event is direct and indirect. The $100bn in gold bar thefts depleted foreign nations and foreign companies of their legitimately held gold assets, held in the WTCenter vaults. It was mainly a gold heist. However, what followed was a path created by the Fascist Business Model. The model merges the major corporations with the state, permits fraud and thefts, allows the big banks to write legislation in the Congress, puts bankers in regulatory posts to monitor banks and stocks, and generally leads to elite corruption, fraud, malfeasance, murder, lawlessness, and indescribable inefficiency within the capitalist system. The breakdown has led to a climax in 2012 with the QE set up by the US Federal Reserve. The Quantitative Easing promotes the unfettered printing of money to cover the USGovt debt, and to cover the redemption of Wall Street banks for their USTreasury Bonds held as securities. The unsterilized hyper monetary inflation is easily 10 times greater in volume than reported, and has undermined the entire capitalist structure of the USEconomy.

AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS SILENCED

Post 9/11 the USGovt security agencies went to work to silence the air traffic controllers. Oaths of allegiance were forced for signatures, under threat of extreme consequence. The events of that fateful day included many gorey details, thus the pressure to seal the room. Leaks were not desired on the culpability of the USMilitary in certain events. For to expect so many controller personnel to maintain silence and not slip information to friends, colleagues, family members, and mere acquaintances, is utterly absurd. To be sure, some will meet with untimely unfortunate fatal accidents. At least 25 witnesses on the 1963 Grassy Knoll in Dallas Texas have met with untimely unfortunate fatal accidents, many violent.

MarilynB from Virginia is a longstanding Hat Trick Letter client. Without prompt, she volunteered some information. She wrote, “By the way, even though I was no longer an air traffic controller (ATC) when 911 happened, I had numerous good friends who were still ATC during the event. Right after 911, the NSA and CIA went to all the facilities and questioned every controller in private about what they knew. They were all ordered to keep their mouths shut and were forced to sign oaths of allegiance. They pledged never to talk about what they saw on 911 even amongst themselves. They also pledged to snitch on any other controller who dared to speak of 911. They were all legally gagged to the max. Most of them were terribly distraught and scared to death by the NSA/CIA threats. One very good friend had a nervous breakdown over the oath. She was afraid they would send her to a foreign prison and that she would never see her family again. Be sure to know, even back in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, they had the ability to fly air carriers remotely, including takeoff and landing. The technology used on 911 has been around for many years. I have seen it work. Lastly, it is absolutely inconceivable that the military did not scramble on four supposedly high-jacked civilian airliner jets unless they were ordered to stand down.”

NEW SCHEISS DOLLAR & GOLD TRADE STANDARD

Events of the last two or three weeks could not be more disruptive, dangerous, or ominous. The IMF refused inclusion of the RMB in their currency basket, clearly feeling threatened. In response, expect China to hasten its efforts to dislocate the USDollar from its perch in trade and banking. Expect extreme pressures to accelerate the increasing required usage of Chinese RMB in trade settlement. The Chinese are even more motivated after the strategically important Tianjin business center and logistics data center was converted into a crater. Langley finger prints might soon be found. Almost a full decade has passed for setting up the widespread usage of Yuan Swap Facilities for bilateral trade between nations with China. Expect a major step toward coercing the Saudis to accept RMB currency for payment in oil shipments, a movement sure to spread to all Gulf Emirate nations. The oil card is the flash point.

In time, expect an eventual refusal by Eastern manufacturing nations to accept USTreasury Bills in payment. The IMF reversal decision assures this USTBill blockade in time, and might accelerate the timetable. The United States Govt cannot continue on five glaring fronts of gross violations. These violations have prompted the BRICS & Alliance nations to hasten their development of diverse non-USD platforms toward the goal of displacing the USDollar while at the same time take steps toward the return of the Gold Standard. The violations are:

1) to import finished goods and crude commodities, paying with IOU coupons

2) to commit multi-$trillion bond fraud in its big banks, done without legal prosecution

3) to do QE bond purchases in applied hyper monetary inflation, monetizing debt

4) to rig all major financial markets in favor of the primal USDollar

5) to engage in numerous regional wars to support the USDollar.


 No.499

The key step upcoming is the Gulf Emirates soon to accept RMB for oil payment from all Eastern & Asian countries, the major flash point. Such event will sound the global alarm. Coupled with broadbased RMB trade settlement and more purchase of Chinese Govt debt securities, the movement will be on to finally initiate the grand dump of USTreasurys from Eastern banking systems. Then later the entire world (except for England and Canada and certain Western European coulee nations) will diversify out of USTBonds in their banking systems. The result will be then a forced reaction by USFed and USDept Treasury to launch the New Scheiss Dollar, which will at the outset have a phony gold foundation. A formal international audit process will break down the fraudulent basis, and lead to a series of painful New Dollar devaluations. Then comes the import price inflation, the supply shortages, and the civil disorder.

The New Scheiss Dollar will have a 30% devaluation out of the gate, then many more devaluations of similar variety. The New Dollar will fail all foreign and Eastern scrutiny. The USGovt will be forced to react to USTBill rejection at the ports. The USMilitary and Langley threats will not work much longer. The Langley crew might attack the entire world, which could result in an American Quarantine. The US must accommodate with the New Scheiss Dollar in order to assure import supply, and to alleviate the many stalemates to come. The United States finds itself on the slippery slope that leads to the Third World, a Jackass forecast that has been presented since Lehman fell (better described as killed by JPM and GSax).

The Gold price will find its true value and price over $10,000 per ounce. The Silver price will find its true value and price over $400 per ounce. In reaching these levels, the ratio will return to the 25-1 range. Several steps have been laid out by the Hat Trick Letter toward the return of proper price to precious metals. The major upcoming events will be exciting to watch unfold, one after the other, in an inevitable sequence away from fascism and concentrated uni-polar power, with a strong movement toward freedom and equitable systems with distributed power. The steps will each involve a quantum jump in the Gold & Silver prices. The process will take a few years, but might be breath-taking in Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Nestle Continues Pumping California Dry to Sell Public Water for Outrageous Profits

Drought-shaming in California – the calling out, usually via social media, of neighbors and others who break water-use rules – has become quite prevalent as the state continues to suffer through a historic drought. But not everyone is getting shamed equally.

As reported by TheAntiMedia.com, one company that is getting less than its fair share of shame is Nestle, which, though the giant company has drawn some of the public's ire, has not received nearly enough "to have spontaneously sprouted a conscience."

The drought-shaming phenomenon worked well enough for Starbucks to end its bottling of Ethos Water in California altogether, with the coffee company moving its entire operation to Pennsylvania instead.

However, Nestle has simply shrugged off any public outrage of its water-bottling operations in the arid state and has even doubled down by boosting its draw of water from natural springs, even in threatened areas like the San Bernardino National Forest, and despite the fact its permit is grossly out of date.

https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.documentcloud.org/documents/2168088/arrowhead-letter-1987.pdf

No current permit

Profit, it seems, is more important to Nestle than doing the civic-minded thing in a state where water resources are fast dwindling.

As TheAntiMedia.com further reported:

Nestle has somehow managed the most sweetheart of deals for its Arrowhead 100% Mountain Spring Water, which is ostensibly sourced from Arrowhead Springs — and which also happens to be located on public land in a national forest.

In 2013, the company drew 27 million gallons of water from 12 springs in Strawberry Canyon for the brand — apparenPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Nestle sure seems confident that the people will never be able to compel the Californian government to take action.

Pure lobbying, or other connections? Or is Nestle just so big and multinational that they don't GAF because any potential fine is worth the profit margin?

>Pure lobbying, or other connections?

Likely both.

The thing that pisses me off is the fact that everyone else has to suffer from water rations or face huge fines, but if you belong to multinational corporation then you are exempt from the laws. That's how fascism works, government is working for corporate interests, not national interests or the interest of the people. It very much reminds me of the UN's Agenda 21 (Agenda for the 21st Century) 'conspiracy' if you will, in which natural resources (like water) will be restricted and/or rationed but large multinational corporations can do whatever they please regardless how it effects environment or the people. The cost of the resources can then be controlled, prices will rise, and those in control (large multinational corporations) will profit even more from the public's dependance.


 No.490

>>489

That happens with most environmental measures too. The people are taxed, regulated, expected to use less, but the lion's share of the environmental impact is by large corporations, not the people.

When they manage to ram through a carbon tax, it won't change anything because all the people who will be paying taxes aren't actually creating most of the carbon emissions. Those who are can lobby their way out of it and probably receive tax breaks for minuscule token efforts, if they don't end up owning the carbon credit system outright.


 No.491

>>490

I agree. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe I read reports a couple years back where several carbon credit exchanges were shut down by governments due to fraud and insolvency. There was even an ongoing federal investigation into CCX (Chicago Climate Exchange) due to fraudulent derivatives trading that scammed many of the investors. The whole thing sounds very shady, that's exactly why when I hear politicians claiming they want to 'protect our environment' I wonder in what ways they benefit by doing so. Legitimate environmental problems (like pollution) I keep an open mind about, but when it comes to carbon credit schemes 'to protect the Earth' I know it's all about making more profits.


 No.492

Yeah there's been some bad business in carbon credits, but it's still alive and well and they badly want to turn all Americans into carbon credit buyers through taxes or tax incentives. Why do you think Al Gore loves the idea so much? He pushes what makes his investments grow like any smart businessman.

It's hard to trust environmental measures but it's also hard to have faith that they'll do anything other than further impoverish average people. And once you get past the corruption, exemptions, and loopholes, you still have China and India polluting like it isn't even an issue. It seems impossible to do anything for the planet, not while there are profits to be made and politicians to lobby.

But at least in California it's a local issue they could handle. There's no reason for anyone to want Nestle making the water shortage worse. But of course even on a state level, nothing meaningful is done about it. If there's no hope for such a clear problem that shouldn't even have sides to it, what hope is there for bigger problems? If something major like saving the ocean ecosystems became absolutely vital tomorrow, could anything even be done that mattered? You'd probably see a tax on people who go swimming or something.

People go on and on about socialism vs corporations on environmental issues, but you're completely right, it's both working together to gain while not changing anything. Everything seems to be working like that these days. Tax cuts, subsidies, new regulations, new mandates, all of it seems to do so little for the people and so much for politicians and large corporations. Every time I hear "small business" or "jobs" or "our responsibility" I just cringe.

Kamilah Brock, a former New York banker, has filled a suit against the city after she was detained for eight days in a mental health facility against her will. Brock says she was committed after trying to pick up her BMW, which skeptical police did not believe she owned, after it had been impounded when she was arrested the previous day.

"Then [emergency medical services] approached me. And they said we're gonna take you to your car. And I'm like, in an ambulance?" Brock told PIX11. "I'm going to my car in an ambulance? I was just so confused."

The story began when Brock was stopped at a traffic light in New York's Harlem neighborhood on Sept. 12, 2014. Officers of the New York Police Department questioned Brock, who is black, about why she had her hands off the steering wheel. Brock, waiting at the light, replied she was "dancing." According to Brock, the officers promptly detained her in New York's local 30th police precinct.

She was ultimately released several hours later without charges and told to pick up her car the next day from another location. When she did, officers on the scene refused to believe that she was the rightful owner of the 2003 BMW 325CI. "I just felt like from the moment I said I owned a BMW, I was looked at as a liar," she told PIX11.

Before she knew it, she was on her way to Harlem Hospital Center's psychiatric ward, where she was injected with lithium and numerous powerful sedatives against her will.

In an interview with PIX11, she recalled her experience: "He held on to me, and then the doctor stuck me in the arm, and then I was on a stretcher, and then I just woke up to them taking my clothes off."

This lasted eight days.

Brock was ultimately left with a $13,000 medical bill from the hospital.

Harlem Hospital did not deny that Brock had been been committed. Her medical file, which her lawyers released to PIX 11, indicated she was suffering from bipolar disorder and that she was "manic," exhibiting "psychiatric behavior." BrPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

David Duke Debates Alex Jones

https://archive.is/gonzW

http://americanfreepress.net/?p=28274

On August 18, popular Internet powerhouse Alexander Emerick “Alex” Jones and Euro-American rights activist Dr. David Ernest Duke squared off in what will eventually be recognized as one of the most important debates in the history of alternative media.

Jones is the colorful and popular radio host and founder of Infowars.com. He is perhaps best known for his bombastic criticisms of the global power elite, warnings of an impending New World Order (NWO) and global government, and exposure of government corruption. He is arguably the most influential figure in the entire alternative media. He has built a media empire centered around his syndicated talk radio program and news website and has produced countless documentaries over the years covering a wide range of issues ranging from the dangers of vaccines to a thorough investigation of President Barack Hussein Obama.

In recent years, Jones has expanded his operation to include a nightly television news program—“Infowars Nightly News”—as well as a monthly magazine called Infowars Magazine.

Following his rise to prominence in the alternative media, American patriots and dissidents have criticized Jones for obfuscating the true nature of the much ballyhooed NWO, a theme he has popularized and mainstreamed over the years, along with the actual forces comprising the global power elite. Critics of Jones argue he has obscured and concealed critical information about the global ruling elite and their international agenda of world domination.

On multiple occasions, callers to the Alex Jones Show have pointed out the pro-Zionist origins of the NWO agenda, which is commonly understood as global government and the destruction of national sovereignty. Additionally, critics have charged that Jones has failed to identify pro-Israeli control over the American mass media, Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

 No.485

During a live radio broadcast in the week prior to the debate, a caller to the Alex Jones Show mentioned the important work of Duke and other pro-white activists and spokesmen. Jones responded by indicating his staff would contact Duke and invite him on Jones’s program for a debate.

Duke wasted no time in accepting the challenge, viewing the debate as a prime opportunity to expose the true nature of the NWO agenda and the global power elite to millions of new listeners. And that is exactly what he did.

Duke performed well throughout the debate, remaining calm and composed, sticking to his primary message: A group of Jewish supremacists dominating America and the wider Western world are waging war against the European peoples, their nation-states, and indeed all of humanity.

“I came on his show at his own invitation to have an intellectual discussion on the world’s greatest problem, the globalist war on humanity, a war being waged on behalf of a small tyrannical tribal elite,” Duke explained in an official statement following the debate. “The driving force behind the New World Order and globalism is the Jewish tribal elite.”

Duke added: “If you watch this debate I believe you will see that I made my points with facts and heartfelt concern for true human rights and justice. What I did on the show was prove the identity of the real tribal racist supremacists who sit at the pinnacle of power. I used their own leaders’ words to prove it.”

Throughout the debate, Duke cited a wide array of Jewish and Zionist sources to hammer home his message regarding Jewish supremacy and tyranny over the Western world. Incredibly, Jewish journalists, authors and activists often admit and boast about Jewish power and influence in the world, openly admitting and explaining their agenda, which dovetails perfectly with the traditional view of the New World Order—global government, ending of national sovereignty and a destruction of all racial and ethnic identities (except, of course, for Jewish ethnic identity).

DHS Stops Library From Offering Anonymous Net Browsing

Since Edward Snowden exposed the extent of online surveillance by the U.S. government, there has been a surge of initiatives to protect users' privacy.

But it hasn't taken long for one of these efforts — a project to equip local libraries with technology supporting anonymous Internet surfing — to run up against opposition from law enforcement.

In July, the Kilton Public Library in Lebanon, New Hampshire, was the first library in the country to become part of the anonymous Web surfing service Tor. The library allowed Tor users around the world to bounce their Internet traffic through the library, thus masking users' locations.

Soon after state authorities received an email about it from an agent at the Department of Homeland Security.

"The Department of Homeland Security got in touch with our police department," said Sean Fleming, the library director of the Lebanon Public Libraries.

After a meeting at which local police and city officials discussed how Tor could be exploited by criminals, the library pulled the plug on the project.

"Right now we're on pause," said Fleming. "We really weren't anticipating that there would be any controversy at all."

He said that the library board of trustees will vote on whether to turn the service back on at its meeting on Sept. 15.

Used in repressive regimes by dissidents and journalists, Tor is considered a crucial tool for freedom of expression and counts the State Department among its top donors. But Tor has been a thorn in the side of law enforcement; National Security Agency documents made public by Snowden have revealed the agency's frustration that it could only identify a "very small fraction" of Tor users.

The idea to install Tor services in libraries emerged from Boston librarian Alison Macrina's Library Freedom Project, which aims toPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

The widely-celebrated and iconic 2012 film, Zero Dark Thirty, which detailed “the most classified mission in history” — one the U.S. government reported resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden — was developed and manipulated by the CIA, according to a Freedom of Information Act request filed by Vice News. The report also shows the CIA provided classified information to the filmmakers. Over one hundred pages of documents reveal a symbiotic relationship between the high-powered film producers and intelligence officials and raise particular questions about the depiction of torture in the film — which was heavily criticized for insinuating “enhanced interrogation techniques” were essential in tracking down Osama bin Laden.

The documents reveal that throughout the filmmaking process, filmmaker Mark Boal was in close contact with Leon Panetta, who was the head of the CIA when the film went into development and production. The documents include two reports, “Alleged Disclosure of Classified Information by Former D/CIA [Director of CIA]” from March, 2014 and a September 2013 report from the Inspector General’s office called “Potential Ethics Violations Involving Film Producers.”

The relationship between Boal and fellow filmmaker Kathryn Bigelow, who made The Hurt Locker in 2009, began a year before the raid on bin Laden in Pakistan, when the pair sought to make a film titled Tora Bora about the CIA’s failure to capture him. However, bin Laden died, nullifying the film’s premise. Only days after Obama announced bin Laden’s death in May of 2011, Boal was in contact with Panetta in the hopes of making a film about the killing. According to Vice News, “Less than three weeks after bin Laden’s death, Boal and Michael Feldman, a public relations representative for Tora Bora, met with CIA officials to discuss the new project.”

Further, “…the CIA gave Boal access to CIA personnel and facilities less than a month after bin Laden was killed in order to ‘further his research’ for the ZDT screenplay.” Boal was even invited to a CIA award ceremony around the same time, though the Inspector General’s report seemed unclear as to who had invited him — the CIA’s Office of Public Affairs or Panetta himself.

If such an event ever came to fruition, it could potentially paralyze this nation and bring the economy to a standstill. Subsequently, the grocery store shelves could be empty within two days and food riots would likely commence by sundown of the second day. All Americans would instantly be in danger. Local law enforcement would be overwhelmed. What would be your chances of survival? Yesterday, I wrote about the fact that FEMA has conducted research studies on America’s level of preparedness and the news is not good. FEMA concluded that 72% of all Americans are not prepared to survive what is coming In other words, when society begins to fragment, you and your fellow preppers are outnumbered by a 3 to 1 margin.

Are you prepared for 3 out of 4 of your neighbors climbing through your windows in search of life-saving supplies?

The FEMA Preparedness Reports

In response to concerns about strengthening the nation’s ability to protect its population and way of life (i.e., security) and ability to adapt and recover from emergencies (i.e., resilience), the President of the United States issued Presidential Policy Directive 8: National Preparedness(PPD-8).

Withdrawing Your Money From the Bank

The best way to avoid getting your money caught in the bank in the midst of a bank run would be to not let the lion’s share of your money ever cross the bank. The simplest way to accomplish this is to prevent any form of deposit from going automatically into your account, as much as it is possible.

Secondly, you need to begin to pay cash for everything. Let’s say that every 30 days, Bob cashes his check at the bank from his work worth $5,000 net pay. Bob leaves just enough in the bank to be able to conduct normal banking business. Bob walks out of the bank every month with the majority of the cash from his check. Bob should begin to pay cash for as much as he can, such as eating out, paying the electric bill (pay the bill in person), buying groceries, etc. When it becomes necessary to make a “big ticket” purchase, Bob could temporarily leave more in the bank to cover the writing of a check.

You would also be wise to open multiple banking accounts ranging from the big five megabanks to your local credit unions. You could withdraw much smaller amounts until the sum total of your accounts is greatly diminished and is in your possession. To open the accounts, simply write a personal check from your home bank. Of course, in these cases, the bank could hold the check for 15-30 days.

I cannot promise you that if you become the target of federal investigators, that you will not have your every financial move scrutinized and the feds will eventually discover the aggregate patterns of withdrawal. People who I interviewed told me that they believe that the federal government is in the process of getting the banking computers to “talk” to each other in a way that would reveal structuring, but that technology is not yet online.

If you ever become the target of a federal investigation, do not, under any circumstances, allow yourself to be interviewed by federal officials without an attorney present. In many cases, people go to jail and pay huge fines, not because they have committed a federal crime, but because federal officials state that they have lied or misled them. And if you do not have an attorney presPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

3. Make a List

Buy a good prepper book. Holly Deyo is an excellent source for this information (www.standdeyo.com). In the interim, procure your food, water, guns, ammo and home security adjustments. If you do not have a big dog, consider obtaining a pair. These animals will be your companion, home security system and ally if someone attempts to breach your home with bad intent. Of course, you will have to store dog food as well.

Sit down and construct a list of what you will need after reading a good prepper book.

Make all of you purchases in cash! You do not want to let the wrong people know what you are up to.

4. Rural Vs. Urban

We have to live our lives for today and it may not be possible to move to a rural area because of your job. However, one survivalist that I was speaking with estimates that the rate of survival for a country in economic chaos would be 10 times higher for rural residents as opposed to urban residents. Consider buying a place in an isolated area and commuting to work in the interim.

5. Pay Off Your Mortgage and Car Loans

If you have a CD, a 401k or any other long-term investment, you might want to consider taking the penalty and executing a withdrawal and apply what’s left of the principal, usually about 50% of the original value, and paying down your major debts.

After an economic collapse, you most likely will not have a job and your retirement and savings will likely be wiped out and confiscated. That is why it would be wise to pay down your debt while you can afford to do so because after the collapse, there will still be foreclosures and repossessions and if you and your family survive, you could be on the street if you cannot pay your bills.

6. Buy Gold and Silver While You Can Afford It

Goldman Sachs has been shorting gold. The elite have been hording gold as have the BRICS. These entities are telling you, by action, what medium of exchange is going to be of value following the collapse that is coming.

Storing gold and silver is an economic survival strategy which will pay dividends after the smoke begins to clear in the post-collapse era.

7. Practice Austerity Before Austerity Is Imposed On You

It is critical to immediately eliminate all unnecessary expenses. Give yourself some operating capital. You may be able to purchase a bug-out residence in a rural area. You will certainly be able to afford more survival gear.

In order to increase your immediate cash flow, start an at-home business. Start a business which has virtually no upfront and startup costs. Even if you are not able to generate much income, you will create a legal tax evasion strategy in which you can legally deduct many of your present activities and expenses (e.g. mileage, the purchase of any office supply, etc.) including survival gear.

8. Create and Store Your Own Food

With regard to storing food, you need to do so immediately. I recommend storing two years worth of food. However, you need to master the art of growing food inside your home. There are plenty of resources which can teach you how to do that. However, you would be wise if you would create a hiding place in which you can store food and water safely in a hidden location. If you are ever robbed, you will not have exhausted your food supplies. You are most likely to be robbed by FEMA or one of their mercenary groups (e.g. Academia) during the beginning of the crisis because food and water will be used as weapons to control you. I am personally aware of FEMA going to selected homeowners to catalogue their reserve food and water supplies. Remember, water is sunlight and temperature sensitive. There are plenty of prepper manuals that you can consult for instructions on how to meet these needs. The time to do these things is Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

11. Guns and Ammunition

Regardless of your moral convictions, ask yourself if you want your family to survive.

Buy your guns off the books from private parties and at gun shows. “Keep guns for show and guns for go”. In other words, have a safe location that you can bury guns so that when gun confiscation begins, you will not be left totally defenseless.

America needs to not only create safe and secure homes, but to create as many Warsaw ghettos as possible (look it up). We need to make ourselves a hard country to conquer and occupy. We cannot stop a treasonous leader from handing off the country to some foreign entity (e.g. the UN). However, occupation of America should be problematic for the blue-helmet wearing Russians, Chinese and other proxy forces training on our soil to occupy us.

It is recommended that you have 3 types of weapons: (1) pistols for close in fighting; (2) shotguns for defense of the entrance to your home; and, (3) a rifle with a scope in order to fight back against long-range snipers that do not want to storm your home because you appear to be prepared. Immediately, obtain weapons instruction for you and your family, firearms training and then practice! Conduct mock raids on your residence so that you can see your vulnerabilities. An armed populace makes a people more feared by an abusive government.

Do not forget about gas masks for each member of your family and make sure to store extras. If you have the means to obtain body armor, do so now, because Congress is preparing to outlaw the private use of body armor.

12. Prepare to Survive in the Raw Elements and Build a Way of Life

It is possible that you can learn to survive in the raw elements without heating and central air conditioning. You may not have lights. Obtain flashlights, many batteries and a hand crank radio.

Make sure you have clothes befitting all weather that you may encounter because a crisis that begins in January, may not be over by August.

Conclusion

In an upside-down world in which the banks legally own your money, getting your money away from these criminal banks has become an art form. I cannot promise you that you will be able to retrieve all of your assets. However, I can promise you that if you do not act, you will lose everything and you will lack needed supplies to weather what is coming.

I would strongly suggest that you keep your gas tank filled and you have plenty of cash, food and ammunition on hand. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Economic Crisis: How You Can Prepare Over The Next Six Months

https://archive.is/HcQpL

http://www.infowars.com/economic-crisis-how-you-can-prepare-over-the-next-six-months/

I wouldn’t say that it is “never too late” to prepare for potential disaster because, obviously, the numerous economic and social catastrophes of the past have proven otherwise.

There simply comes a point in time in which the ignorant and presumptive are indeed officially screwed. I will say that we have not quite come to that point yet here in the U.S., but the window of opportunity for preparation is growing very narrow.

As expected, U.S. stocks are now revealing the underlying instability of our economy, which has been festering for several years. Extreme volatility not seen since 2008/2009 has returned, sometimes with 1000 point fluctuations positive and negative in the span of only a couple days. Current market tremors are beginning to resemble the EKG of a patient suffering a heart attack.

Stocks are a trailing indicator, meaning that when an equities crash finally becomes visible to the mainstream public, it indicates that the economic fundamentals have been broken beyond repair for quite a while. What does this mean for those people who prefer to protect themselves and their families rather than wait to be drowned like lemmings in a deluge? It means they are lucky if they have more than a few months to put their house in order.

The process of crisis preparedness is not as simple as going on a gear-buying bonanza or making a few extra trips to Costco. That is better than nothing; but really, it’s a form of half-assed prepping that creates more of an illusion of survivabilty rather than providing ample security in the event that financial systems malfunction.

Find Two Family Members, Two Friends and One Neighbor Of Like Mind

Here is the bottom line: If you are going the route of the lone wolf or secret squirrel isolated from any community, then you are already dead. You might as well hand your food and supplies over to someone else with a better fighting chance. The lone wolf methodology is the worst possible strategy for survival. And if you look at almost every collapse scenario in history from Argentina to Bosnia to the Great Depression, it is always the people with strong community who end up surviving.

Going lone wolf is partially useful only if you have zero moral fortitude and you plan to rob or murder every other person you come across and then run. This is not the smartest idea either because it requires a person to constantly seek out violent contact in order to live day to day. Eventually, the lone wolf’s luck will run out no matter how vicious he is.

I’ve noticed that those people who promote lone wolf survivalism tend to lean toward moral relativism, though they rarely come right out and admit what their real plans are. I’ve also noticed that it is the lone wolves who also often attempt to shame average preppers into isolationism with claims of “OPSEC” (operations security) and warnings of neighbors ready to loot their homes at the first sign of unrest. “Don’t talk to anyone,” they say. “Your only chance is to hide.” One should consider the possibility that the lone wolves prefer that preppers never form groups or communities because that would make their predatory strategy more successful.

Without community, you have no security beyond the hope that people will not find you by chance. You also have limited skill sets to draw from (no one has the knowledge and ability to provide all services and necessities for themselves). And you will have no ability to rebuild or extend your lines of safety, food production, health services, etc. once the opportunity arises. If you cannot find two family members, two friends and one neighbor to work with you in the next six months, then you aren’t trying hard enough; and thus, frankly, you don’t deserve to survive.

Create A Local Ham Network – Expand To Long Distance

A 5-watt ham radio can be had for about $40. With the flood of low-cost, Chinese-made radios on the market today, there is simply no excuse not to have one. If you want to get your ham license, then by all means do so and expand the number of available frequencies you can legally use. If you don’t have a license, practice on non-licensed channels such as MURS channels (yes, MURS is only supposed to be operated at 1 watt or less; I won’t tattle on you to the Federal Communications Commission if you use 5 watts).

A 5-watt handheld ham radio can easily achieve 30 miles or more depending on the type of antenna used. With repeaters, hundreds of miles can be covered. With a high frequency (HF) rig, hundreds or sometimes thousands of miles can be covered without the use of repeaters (though HF radios are far more expensive).

During a national disaster, there is no guarantee that normal communications will continue. Phone and Internet connections can be lost through neglect, or they can be deliberately eliminated by government entities. A nation or community without communications is lost. Find friends and family and set up your communications network now. Over time, your network may grow to cover a vast area; but it has to start with a core, and that core is you.

Learn Basic Emergency And Combat Medical Response

We are lucky in my area to have a few people with extensive medical knowledge in our Community Preparedness Team. I have received training in multiple areas of emergency and combat medical response, and I am grateful for access to such people because there is always more to learn in this field. If you do not have people on your team with medical experience, then you will have to seek out such classes where you can.

Local EMT classes are a good start, but these courses are very limited in scope and do not cover treatment as much as they cover the identification of particular problems. Almost no community courses I can think of delve into combat medical response. If you can’t find a private trainer in your area, then youPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Plan Your Food Independence In Advance

To survive you must become your own farmer. Period. Do you know how to do this in your particular climate? Have you accounted for pest control and bad weather conditions? Have you extended your growing season with the use of greenhouses? Are you planning your crops realistically? What provides more sustenance, a field of tomatoes or a field of potatoes? A planting box full of lettuce or of carrots? What crops can be stored the longest and are the hardiest against poor conditions? What gives you the best bang for your buck and for your labor?

I realize that the current growing season is almost at an end, but that does not mean you can’t spend the next six months planning for the next season. Condition your soil for planting now. Store extra fertilizer and compost. Be ready for pests. Learn the square foot method as well as barrel planting. Take note of the space you have and how you can best use it. Stockpile seeds for several years of planting.

Train Your Mind To Handle Crisis

Panic betrays and fear kills. The preparedness culture is built upon the ideal that one must defeat fear in order to live. How a person goes about removing uncertainty from the mind is really up to the individual. For me, combat training and mixed martial arts is a great tool. If you get used to people trying to hurt you in a ring, it’s not quite as surprising or terrifying when it happens in the real world. If you can handle physical and mental trauma in a slightly more controlled environment, then fear is less likely to take hold of you during a surprise disaster.

Six months may be enough time to enter a state of mental preparedness, it may not be, but more than anything else, this is what you should be focusing on. All other survival actions depend on it. Your ability to function personally, your ability to work with others, your ability to act when necessary, all rely on your removal of fear. Take the precious time you have now and ensure you are ready to handle whatever the future throws at you.

Police Suicide Rising To Epidemic Levels In America

The mainstream media often portrays the unfortunate random killing of police officers as analogous to a larger “war on cops.” The reality is that there is a concerted public relations effort underway, on the part of law enforcement, with the intention of stemming the growing public calls for more oversight and accountability.

If law enforcement were genuine about wanting to save the lives of cops, they would begin by attempting to put focus on the out of control epidemic of police suicides, which dwarfs the number of cops fatally shot the line of duty.

The last year on public record for police suicides was 2012, with a staggering 126 officers reported to have intentionally killed themselves. Compare that with the number of police fatally shot in the line of duty last year; 47.

Let that sink in for a moment. American police are 300% more likely to kill themselves than be shot and killed by another individual.

These statistics drive home the fact that the “war on cops” narrative is simplistic police propaganda, which utilizes the mainstream media as a mouthpiece in an effort to deliver the message to middle America.

The stark reality is that were 47 cops shot in the line of duty in 2014 and this year the number is estimated to be even lower, projected at 43 shooting deaths if the current projections hold steady through the end of the year.

The Next Tool of Tyranny and Enslavement Is Coming From Your Pastor and FEMA

https://archive.is/8sPDt

http://www.thecommonsenseshow.com/2015/09/10/the-next-tool-of-tyranny-and-enslavement-is-coming-from-your-pastor-and-fema/

Many who have followed the writings on this site are all too familiar with how the Department of Homeland Security and FEMA have turned your pastor into an agent of the state [1]. And as such, your pastor has been trained to invoke Romans 13 in order to enforce compliance with government edicts, no mater how draconian, in a time of national emergency.

Many of the nation’s pastors have been trained how to bring calm to incarcerated Americans being held in the proverbial FEMA camps in which the pastors are forbidden to quote the Bible and speak of Jesus. It would be wise to click on the link for the two aforementioned claims before proceeding with this article.

Your Church Is Likely An Agent of the State

From the previously referenced links, it is easy to conclude that most of our pastors are compromised along with their message. However, the Clergy Response Team has taken an even darker turn for the worse. In ONLY 120 days, 30 churches from around the world have turned their place of worship into potential pit of enslavement. In geographic locations from Indonesia to India and from Portugal to the United States, churches have started using facial recognition software called Churchix. The innovator and the man in charge of this unholy distribution of unwarranted surveillance technology, Moshe Greenshpan, the CEO of Israel- and Las Vegas-based company Face-Six, is leading the way in installing DARPA and DHS surveillance devices inside the sanctuaries of Christian churches. Make no mistake about it, this surveillance program is a clone of other products that Greenshpan’s company offers to clients, such as law enforcement, public venues, retail outlets aPost too long.

Financing Your Church’s Implementation of Churchix

Earlier in this article, the question was raised as to why a church would seek to monitor its members attendance and if a lack of offerings was motivating this type of spying. However, this technology was too expensive to be of any real value. In short, the nation’s churches would spend more than they would recoup from bringing “fallen away” members back into the fold and realizing a revenue increase from church offerings as a result. However, The Common Sense Show has learned that Department of Homeland Security grants are available for churches who wish to upgrade their “technology” in accordance with the rules and procedures associated with their local Fusion Threat Center.

Originally, this information was available FEMA’s homepage at this link [3]. As the readers can see, the page has been scrubbed in a similar fashion to the previously referenced New Hub report on this topic.

However, The Common Sense Show, made a copy of the DHS/FEMA grant program that was, in part, designed to make churches part of the DHS/FEMA national surveillance police state spy grid:

• State and territory responsibilities. Citizen preparedness and participation must be coordinated by an integrated

Part of the Bigger Picture

Forget the obvious Fourth Amendment protections the Chuchix and your pastor are violating on behalf of DHS/FEMA. The fundamental question is why would a government agency invest so much capital and its resources into such a project?

Any competent social psychologist will tell you that body language accounts for roughly 90% of all human communication. Facial expressions, posture and gestures are part of this elaborate communication system. Please consider the following:

Computer scientists and musicologists at the University of Oslo have developed new software that lets music lovers add their own personal music, to match their mood, which created by a computer that can effectively read the person’s body language [4].

Paul Ekman, the pioneer of reading body language, according to the Wall Street Journal [5], “fears he has created a monster”. Ekman originally pioneered the study of facial expressions in the 1970’s. He created an inventory of over 5,000 muscle movements in order to demonstrate hidden emotions. Today companies such as Emotient Inc., Affectiva Inc. and Eyeris have amassed an amazing computer software data base that can seemingly read minds because of the accuracy and thoroughness of the body language reading software. The concern of the public should be great as the Wall Street Journal so accurately states “Collectively, they are amassing an enormous visual database of human emotions, seeking patterns that can predict (pre-crime) emotional reactions and behavior on a massive scale”.

You might still be wondering how this could impact you? Imagine that this coming Sunday you are sitting in a church armed with this technology. The terms of the DHS grant given to your church allows the NSA, on behalf of DHS/FEMA, to pirate the video footage of the members of your church. Your facial reactions to your pastor’s message could reveal much about your suitability to live in the New World Order which has hijacked this nation’s government.

Conclusion

Ask yourself, if you were looking for opponents to the NWO, where would you go to identify them? Since most of the Independent Media are self-professed Christians as are many of their followers, the church would be the logical place to visit. An in an environment where topics such as Transgenerism and the selling body part of aborted fetuses could be discussed, your church would be a good repository to look for future dissenters, today, and eliminate them, before they could become a problem. Please recall, as reported on this site, the NSA maintains a data base on every individual in which every person is assigned a Threat Matrix Score. Churchix is just one more tool to make decisions on people who would turn up on the proverbial Red List.

In light of the introduction of this technology to the Church, home Bible study seems like a very good idea.

A focal point of California's fight to drastically curb greenhouse gases was shot down in the state Assembly late Tuesday and now its companion environmental bill is also in jeopardy.

Senate Bill 32, known as the Global Warming Solutions Act, was stymied by a lack of Democratic support and defeated in the Assembly with a vote of 30-35. The bill needed a supermajority to pass, and 15 Assembly members abstained.

The sweeping climate change bill aimed to cut greenhouse gases by 40 percent from 1990 levels by 2030 and 80 percent by 2050, and would align state law with emissions goals set by former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and current Gov. Jerry Brown.

Critics of Democratic Sen. Fran Pavley's bill hammered it for giving state regulators increased power over the implementation of the sweeping emissions plans, and questioned the impact it could have on California's agriculture industry.

Pavley included a late amendment giving the Legislature the ability to modify or reject the California Air Resources Board's emission plans, but couldn't sway a group of 14 moderate Democrats who withheld their vote.

A majority of the Democratic holdouts represent Southern California districts and none gave comment before the vote.

Pavley said she is still working on amendments to the bill and that it was rushed to vote Tuesday due to Friday's legislative deadline. Hundreds of bills must be heard on the Senate and Assembly floors before Friday's deadline.

The bill was motioned for reconsideration and will be heard again before Friday's deadline, Pavley said.

"Rather than rush ahead before members could review amendments, SB 32 will be reconsidered later this week," Pavley tweeted after the vote. "The fight continues."

CONFIRMED: Saudi Arabia Offered Russia Oil Alliance and OPEC Membership

Igor Sechin, the powerful head of Rosneft, Russia’s big state oil company, has now confirmed that OPEC - the Saudi dominated oil producers’ cartel - has offered Russia membership.

This comes on the heels of media reports that the Saudis have been pressing the Russians for an “oil alliance” whereby Russia and Saudi Arabia, the world’s two biggest oil producers, would coordinate their production so as to dominate the oil market together.

The Saudi proposal makes complete sense from Saudi Arabia’s point of view.

The Saudi decision last year to maintain oil production at existing levels rather than cut production in response to the oil price fall, was not directed at Russia but at US shale oil producers.

The Saudis know that there is no possibility of the shale oil producers cutting production in cooperation with OPEC.

If Saudi Arabia and OPEC had cut production last year in order to prop up the oil price the shale oil producers would simply have carried on producing even more oil in order to benefit from the higher price.

Saudi Arabia would have sacrificed its market share and profits simply in order to keep the US shale oil producers in business.

It therefore made total sense for the Saudis last year to maintain production at existing levels in order to price the US shale oil producers out of the oil market.

The Saudis know this will take time - two years at least - but they have calculated, surely rightly, that with their massive financial reserves and their highly liquid banking system they can outlast the heavily indebted US shale oil producers in what is now a price war.

Once the US shale oil producers have been priced out, oil prices will rise.

OPEC Export Price Falls Below $40 for First Time Since 2009

The average price of crude sold by OPEC fell below $40 a barrel for the first time 2009, underscoring the financial cost of the group’s strategy to defend its market share.

The daily OPEC Basket Price fell to $39.21 a barrel on Nov. 13, according to an e-mail on Monday from the organization’s secretariat in Vienna. The basket, an average of export grades from each of the group’s 12 members, typically trades below international oil futures as some OPEC nations pump denser or higher-sulfur crude that’s less profitable to refine.

Oil has slumped since the middle of last year as the Organization of Petroleum Countries keeps output elevated to pressure rivals it sees as responsible for creating a global surplus. A decline in production among its higher-cost competitors including U.S. shale drillers has now slowed, with output still above last year’s level. With OPEC members’ revenues diminished, the group may reconsider its approach if the price slump persists, according to the International Energy Agency.

Oil Bust Kills Off 19 Million Barrels Per Day Of Future Oil Production

The collapse in oil prices have led to severe cuts in spending and investment from oil producers, and a new report finds that the combined cuts will lead to a daily 19 million barrels of potential future oil production taken off the table.

The report from Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co. finds that oil companies have either cancelled or suspended final investment decisions on 150 oil projects, which account for about 125 billion barrels of oil. “By not sanctioning projects today, you’re putting a hole in production in 2017, 2018 and 2019 — potentially a big hole,” David Pursell, managing director of macro research investment bank Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co.

The cuts, and the resulting loss of future production, will be concentrated in a few key areas. For example, the report estimates Iraq will fail to realize 5 million barrels per day of production. Iraq, like everyone else, is suffering from low oil prices. Meanwhile, the government has higher costs for its military campaign against ISIS militants. That leaves few resources left over to reimburse private oil companies for exploration and development work. So while Iraq has succeeded in increasing output in recent years, drilling is expected to slow down.

We no longer have to wait for the collapse of U.S. shale oil production, it already has begun. Unfortunately, this is bad news for the U.S. Government and domestic economy. Falling U.S. oil production will put severe stress on the highly leveraged debt based financial system over the next several years.

According to the U.S. Energy Information Agency (EIA) recent Drilling Productivity Report, shale oil production from the top fields is forecasted to decline 116,000 barrels per day in January 2016. Even though overall U.S. shale oil production is forecasted to be down 12% from its peak in March 2015, one of the largest fields in Texas is down a whopping 30%

The Eagle Ford Shale Oil Field in Texas peaked at 1.7 million barrels per day (mbd) in March 2015 and is forecasted to drop to 1.2 mbd next month (Jan 2016). Again, this is according to the EIA Drilling Productivity Reports which base their figures on estimates. However, even larger declines in some of these fields may be experienced when the real data comes out in the following months.

For the Eagle Ford to be down 30% (500,000+ barrels per day) in less than a year…

THIS IS A BIG DEAL. I have been warning about the coming collapse of U.S. shale oil production for more than a year now. The idea that the United States would become energy independent is now DEAD FOR GOOD.

Total U.S. shale oil production in January 2016, is forecasted to be 4.67 mbd, down from the peak of 5.3 mbd in March 2015. This is a decline of 630,000 barrels per day from the peak.

Here are the individual shale oil field data from peak:

Eagle Ford = -510,000 barrels per day

Bakken = -140,000 barrels per day

Niobrara = -142,000 barrels per day

Permian = +144,000 barrels per day

Russia, China, India and other emerging powers are pushing for a multipolar world; meanwhile the United States, a former hegemon, is unable to stop them as it is losing its political power and is “de-facto bankrupt,” William Engdahl, a political observer for New Eastern Outlook, told Radio Sputnik.

Slowly, but surely Russia, China and other emerging economies are beginning to reduce their dependency on the US dollar. Russia plans to trade oil using rubles by undermining the current US oil price monopoly.

This move would be a dramatic blow to the economy of the United States and break the US political hegemony, Engdahl explained.

"The rest of the world is beginning to realize that the United States of America, the hegemon or the sole super power, whatever you want to call it, is de-facto bankrupt," the political expert told Sputnik.

It's not simply about the upcoming de-dollarization of the global oil trade, Engdahl explained, but due to the fact that the US economy has been severely hit on multiple fronts.

With US industries outsourced to other countries, unemployment shooting through the roof and trillions of dollars of debt, the US economy is in a terrible shape, Engdahl said.

Pirate Party Offers Uncensored DNS to Bypass Pirate Bay Blockade

The Norwegian Pirate Party has made a big statement by launching a free DNS service which allows Internet users to bypass the local Pirate Bay blockade. The party advocates a free and open Internet for everyone and believes that the recent website blockades set a dangerous precedent.

Last week Norway became the latest country to block access to The Pirate Bay.

A local court ordered Internet providers to block users’ access to several large ‘pirate’ websites in the hope that it will decrease online copyright infringement.

The local Pirate Party is now vigorously protesting the ruling and has decided to fight back. Since the sites will be blocked on the DNS level the party is countering by providing their own DNS servers.

“We want a free and open Internet for everyone. The copyright industry’s fight for control over culture has put us in a situation where this is no longer the case in Norway,” Pirate Party co-chairman Øystein Middelthun tells TF.

“The censorship is easy to bypass, by simply changing your name server, so we decided to practice what we preach and offer such a service to all those affected by the problem,” he adds.

Indeed, since the sites’ IP-addresses are not blocked the blockade can be easily circumvented by changing the DNS settings on one’s device or computer. The Pirate Party is not the only company offering alternative DNS, OpenDNS and Google have a similar service.

The Pirate Party’s DNS has added benefits though, as it supports additional Top Level Domains including .geek or .pirate, and the Namecoin based .bit. In addition, it operates from Norway with minimal Post too long. Click here to view the full text.
