There is no exit from the current system without considerably more war than we are experiencing currently.

I think this article might be of interest to you then....

Pro-Gold, Anti-Zionist

There exists a profound misunderstanding of the gold standard among anti-zionists. Again and again one reads how gold is the tool of the Jewish bankers, how gold strangles economic growth by providing insufficient liquidity and how money and its value are determined by the work of a people and the trust they have in their government. This misunderstanding is so omnipresent in anti-zionist circles that it is time to dispel the confusion and the fallacies.

Support for the gold standard has existed throughout the world long before the rise of Jewish bankers and modern capitalism. The ancient world was well acquainted with the benefits of monetary stability. The Roman economy flourished before the emperors started debasing the coinage. The successor empire, the East Roman Empire or Byzantine, flourished for a thousand years based on the gold solidus, which was accepted everywhere in the ancient world for its stable value. The French emperor, Napoleon Bonaparte, although no friend of the Jews, always paid his soldiers and suppliers in gold. He had the example of the fiat inflation of John Law before him. (Those who espouse economic fallacies should learn from the example of Law, who made exactly the arguments they do. Law preached that money needed to flow freely through the economy to create prosperity. Money would always have value because it was guaranteed by the French crown. All those who warned of the dangers of inflation were scaremongers to be disregarded. A few short years later the printing presses of His Majesty, King Louis, had reduced the value of French money to zero.) Based on these historical examples, it is clear that support of the gold standard in no way implies support of the Jews. In fact, it was the Jews who took the United States off the gold standard. It was FDR, surrounded by a cabal of Jews, who demonetized the currency of the U.S. and who made it illegal for U.S. citizens to hold gold. Jews are not opposed to gold per se. They merely want themselves to have the gold while the citizens hold the worthless paper.

Advocates of the gold standard, like Ron Paul, are sometimes denounced by the editor of Ziopedia and Mr. Christopher Jan Bjerknes as Zionist or CIA agents. But this is completely unsupportable. Representative Paul is acutely aware of malignant Zionist influence. He has repeatedly called for a more “even handed” U.S. approach to the Middle East. He does not take on the Zionists directly because he justifiably fears their power. One can hardly blame him. A notable example of a man who is both anti-zionist and pro-gold is Lawrence Patterson, the editor of “Criminal Politics” magazine. Anyone who reads Mr. Patterson’s publication can tell that he is extremely well informed on the Synagogue of Satan. He is also forthrightly a practicing Christian. But he will not endorse economic fallacies anymore than Voltaire.

This essay is not the place to set out the workings of the gold standard. That has already been done by this author in other essays published on Ziopedia. The purpose of this essay is solely to demonstrate that it is possible to be both pro-gold and anti-zionist. Opposition to the Zionist international should not translate into support for long exploded fallacies.
