There is a lot of information that comes across my desk relative to the end times. Some of it is quite interesting, while there are other bits and pieces that are really far too way out there to ever be really taken seriously. Relative to that statement, someone once said to me that the numbers of the Australian dollar note add up to 6. However, even after looking there was
nothing there that I could find that could verify that statement.
Nevertheless, it is with interest that I decided to take a closer look at the Australian dollar notes sometime ago after there was considerable interest shown by some preachers about the two seals on the back of the American dollar bill.
After studying all of the bills, I did indeed note that there were certainly points of interest attached to the bills.
Bearing in mind that what I am about to present here is not new and fresh information, and in fact what I noted at that time goes back quite a number of years. What I found on the back of the Australian $20 dollar note was a Left Wing German Plane. I call it a left wing plane because as the plane was facing to the left of the bill, it meant that what we were able to see was the left hand wings of the plane. I also know that it is a German Plane because there was a German Iron Cross on the side of the plane so often favoured by the Nazis during the Second World War.
Of course, there are no doubts that others may have different and varying opinions relative to the meaning of the information that I have presented above. The facts being that there may be some who are going to say that what I have presented above has no real meaning at all, and to those I would say you may be right. On the other hand, as the purpose of this blog is to present information relative to the end times, it may be that what we are shown here is quite early glue to the final Worldwide Empire of the Antichrist as a Left Wing German Dictatorship.
In fact, the dictatorship of nations, or even the whole world, by a single brutal ruler dates back to dawn of civilization. Nevertheless, leftist ideas of dictatorship are the more modern out of the two. Hence, 99% of dictatorships in history starting from ancient Greek tyrannies till Hitler, Franco and then to numerous modern day military juntas, and lately of course Saddam Hussein, were all right wing.
Right wing tyrants use the brute force of loyal troops and police. Right dictatorships favour cult of power, nationalism and sometimes even adopt the ideologies of the Nazis.
Leftist Dictatorships, on the other hand, while often also making good use of a police state, rely on utopias of social equality (something that was quite unthinkable before the industrial era. Plato and Aristotle often imagined ideal societies, but none ever blamed slavery). As a result, in left-wing dictatorships people are sacrificing their comfort, freedom and even their very lives in the name of the magnificent dream. Therefore, in a Left Wing Dictatorship there is no reason at all to oppress anyone. If there is anyone, who dares to go against his or her ideology the result is always going to be imprisonment or execution.
In a pure theocracy, the civil leader is believed to have a direct personal connection with God. For example, a prophet like Moses led the Israelites, and the prophet Muhammad ruled the early Muslims. Law proclaimed by the ruler is also considered a divine revelation, and hence the law of God. An ecclesiocracy, on the other hand, is a situation where the religious leaders assume a leading role in the state, but do not claim that they are instruments of divine revelation. For example, the prince-bishops of the European Middle Ages, where the bishop was also the temporal ruler. The papacy in the Papal States occupied a middle ground between theocracy and ecclesiocracy, since the pope did not claim he is a prophet who receives revelation from God, but merely the (in rare cases infallible) interpreter of already-received revelation. Religiously endorsed monarchies fall between these two poles, according to the relative strengths of the religious and political organs.
FOOTNOTE:
Totalitarian regimes differ from older concepts of dictatorship or tyranny.
Totalitarian regimes seek to establish complete political, social and cultural control, whereas dictatorships seek limited, typically political, control. Two types of totalitarianism can sometimes be distinguished: Nazism and Fascism which evolved from "right-wing" extremism, and Communism, which evolved from "left-wing" extremism.
Traditionally, each is supported by different social classes. Right-wing totalitarian movements have generally drawn their popular support primarily from middle classes seeking to maintain the economic and social status quo.
Left-wing totalitarianism has often developed from working class movements seeking, in theory, to eliminate, not preserve, class distinctions. Right-wing totalitarianism has typically supported and enforced the private ownership of industrial wealth. A distinguishing feature of Communism, by contrast, is the collective ownership of such capital.
Totalitarian regimes mobilize and make use of mass political participation, and often are led by charismatic cult figures. Examples of such cult figures in modern history are Mao Tse-tung (China) and Josef Stalin (Soviet Union), who led left-wing regimes, and Adolf Hitler (Germany) and Benito Mussolini (Italy), who led right-wing regimes.
Right-wing totalitarian regimes (particularly the Nazis) have arisen in relatively advanced societies, relying on the support of traditional economic elites to attain power. In contrast, left-wing totalitarian regimes have arisen in relatively undeveloped countries through the unleashing of revolutionary violence and terror.
Such violence and terror are also the primary tools of right-wing totalitarian regimes to maintain compliance with authority.

If Raoul Pal was some doomsday spouting windbag, writing in all caps, arbitrarily pasting together disparate charts to create 200 page slideshows, it would be easy to ignore him. He is not.
The founder of Global Macro Investor previously co-managed the GLG Global Macro Fund in London for GLG Partners, one of the largest hedge fund groups in the world. Raoul came to GLG from Goldman Sachs where he co-managed the hedge fund sales business in Equities and Equity Derivatives in Europe...
Raoul Pal retired from managing client money in 2004 at the age of 36 and now lives on the Valencian coast of Spain, from where he writes." It is his writing we are concerned about, and specifically his latest presentation, which is, for lack of a better word, the most disturbing and scary forecast of the future of the world we have ever seen....
And we see a lot of those.
Consider this:
We are here...
We don’t know exactly what is to come, but we can all join the very few dots from where we are now, to the collapse of the first major bank…
With very limited room for government bailouts, we can very easily join the next dots from the first bank closure to the collapse of the whole European banking system, and then to the bankruptcy of the governments themselves.
There are almost no brakes in the system to stop this, and almost no one realises the seriousness of the situation.
The problem is not Government debt per se. The real problem is that the $70 trillion in G10 debt is the collateral for $700 trillion in derivatives…
Yes, that equates to 1200% of Global GDP and it rests on very, very weak foundations
From an EU crisis, we only have to join one dot for a UK crisis of equal magnitude.
Then do you think Japan and China would not be next?
Then do you think the US would survive unscathed?
That is the end of the fractional reserve banking system and of fiat money.
It is the big RESET.
It continues:
- Bonds will be stuck at 1% in the US, Germany, UK and Japan (for this phase).
- The whole bond market will be dead.
- Short selling on bonds - banned
Short selling stocks – banned - CDS – banned
- Short futures – banned
- Put options – banned
- All that is left is the Dollar and Gold
It only gets better. We use the term loosely:
We have around 6 months left of trading in Western markets to protect ourselves or make enough money to offset future losses.
Spend your time looking at the risks of custody, safekeeping, counterparty etc.
Assume that no one and nothing is safe.
After that…we put on our tin helmets and hide until the new system emerges
And the punch line
From a timing perspective, I think 2012 and 2013 will usher in the end game

As the implimentation of the Mark of the Beast gets ever nearer the USA is now considering RFID implants for everyone who joins the food stamp programme. Is the chip THE mark or is it just the forerunner? We will see as time moves along.
Use of RFID Tracking Technology To Be Mandatory In US Food Stamp Program
Food stamp welfare individuals must soon be chipped.
"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” (Revelation 13:16-17)
In a little while, the above scene in Revelation 13 will become a global reality. People can no longer buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast. And sometimes that would mean no longer being able to eat!
The USDA is now considering biometric identification for all individuals who will want to benefit from their Food and Nutrition Services. The RFID chip may just soon be a must for everyone who does not want to starve!
The following is an excerpt of the executive summary of the FINAL REPORT of the Use of Biometric Identification Technology to Reduce Fraud in the Food Stamp Program:
Biometric identification technology provides automated methods to identify a person based on physical characteristics—such as fingerprints, hand shape, and characteristics of the eyes and face—as well as behavioral characteristics—including signatures and voice patterns.
Biometric identification technology provides automated methods to identify a person based on physical characteristics—such as fingerprints, hand shape, and characteristics of the eyes and face—as well as behavioral characteristics—including signatures and voice patterns. Although used in law enforcement and defense for several years, it has recently been used in civilian applications and shows some promise to reduce the number of duplicate cases in the Food Stamp Program (FSP) and other assistance programs .
Biometric identification systems are currently operational at some level in Arizona, California (under county initiative, first by Los Angeles County), Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and Texas. Finger imaging is the principal form of technology used in all eight States, though alternative technologies have simultaneously undergone trials in Massachusetts (facial recognition) and Illinois (retinal scanning). By the end of 2000, new systems are expected to be in place in California (statewide unified system), Delaware, and North Carolina. Other States are currently in the initial planning stages, including Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina. However, there is little information available at this point regarding the specific course and trajectory these States will follow in terms of system types, implementation schedules, and the benefit programs in which they will implement the new requirement.
This report provides an overview of the experience of nine States with biometric identification technologies as of September 1999 and discusses some of the major policy and operational issues encountered during implementation and testing. The report also synthesizes available information on the effectiveness of the technology in reducing duplicate participation and provides a discussion of measurement complexities and issues on the horizon as use of the technology continues to expand. A companion report contains an overview of biometric identification technology, examining the functional capabilities, performance, and applications of the various technologies with a particular focus on finger imaging, the most commonly used and well known.
Telephone interviews of 1-2 hours in duration were conducted in May-June 1998 with representatives of human service agencies in Arizona, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. As part of an earlier task of this study, we conducted site visits to San Antonio, Texas to observe the Lone Star Image System (LSIS) demonstration and to interview State and county agency staff. Information on Texas is based on those visits and interviews. The States interviewed, with the exception of Pennsylvania, have installed biometric identification systems and are requiring applicants to federal and State benefit programs to submit to the new procedures during the eligibility determination process.
The purpose of the interviews was to explore State experiences with biometric identification systems, including factors in the decision-making and planning processes, the dynamics of system start-up and implementation, issues and problems related to system and agency operations, and perceptions regarding the impact of biometric identification procedures on the application and eligibility determination processes. Each of the States participating in the study was asked to provide a description of the critical early events that occurred during the planning phases of their respective projects. In addition, those States that had already implemented systems were asked to describe their implementation experiences.
When finger-imaging technology was first applied to reduce multiple participation fraud in assistance programs, there were many concerns about the performance and reliability of the technology in a social service application, as well as about the potential stigma that a finger-image requirement would place on potential clients. The experience of the eight States that have incorporated finger imaging into the process of applying for welfare assistance suggests that many of these fears were unfounded. Finger imaging has been readily integrated into the human services programs of the affected states. However, despite the positive reaction to finger imaging from the State officials we interviewed, there is still uncertainty regarding the extent to which this technology can reduce multiple participation fraud.
The States planned for implementation of their biometric identification systems in response to a wide variety of factors and considerations idiosyncratic to each State environment. Some States reported that their respective legislative mandates, which prescribed specific dates by which biometric systems were required to be in place, allowed insufficient time for development and planning. The States developed and followed implementation schedules in accordance with internal priorities and considerations. The States uniformly described their implementation processes as largely uneventful, though they encountered a variety of minor implementation issues, most of which were associated with the logistical difficulties of mobilizing and managing such a complex initiative.
Preparing staff for the implementation of the biometric systems, both philosophically and operationally, took different forms, priorities, and levels of effort in the States. At implementation, advance notification to clients and/or the general public about new biometric client identification procedures was considered important by all State representatives. The objective of providing advance notification was to inform and prepare clients for the additional application or recertification step (i.e., to explain the requirement and who is required to submit, and to address client concerns), as well as to accelerate enrollment of the existing caseload. All States prepared informational mailings to clients advising them of the new requirement. Some States reported developing additional outreach media including multilingual (English and Spanish) videos, posters, and brochures for viewing and distribution in the local office. Most of the States also identified various outlets in the community through which they informed the general public in advance about the implementation of biometric client identification procedures.
The States with operating systems reported that implementation of new biometric client identification procedures had a negligible impact on operations at the local office level. In general, States also reported that the problems and obstacles encountered in operating their respective projects are not unlike those encountered in demonstrating any new technology or procedural modification. These States also reported that their systems and procedures were implemented without unexpected difficulty and were rapidly institutionalized. All the States confronted a range of basic physical space and logistical issues, including where to situate the new equipment, how to appropriately alter job descriptions, who to reassign or hire to handle the new procedures, and how to adjust the flow of clients and paperwork most efficiently. However, none reported any particularly noteworthy difficulties. States reported that clients have been cooperative and accepting of the technology.
Assessing the ability of finger imaging to reduce fraud is difficult because the amount of fraud caused by duplicate participation in welfare programs is unknown, and because changes in caseload after the introduction of finger imaging cannot be interpreted unambiguously as reduction of fraud. The evaluations of finger imaging systems conducted by six States have produced the following findings.
A small number of duplicate applications (approximately 1 duplicate for every 5,000 cases) have been detected by finger imaging systems. Finger-imaging systems appear to detect more fraud in statewide implementations than in regional pilot systems. Additional matches have been found by interstate comparisons of finger-image data.
Institution of a finger-imaging requirement can produce a significant, short-term reduction in caseload, because some existing clients refuse to comply with the requirement. The number of refusals depends on the implementation procedures and appears to be lower when finger imaging is incorporated into the recertification process.
The most carefully controlled estimate of non-compliance among existing clients suggests that introduction of a finger-imaging requirement reduces participation by approximately 1.3%. However, this estimate reflects both reduced fraud and deterrence of eligible individuals and households.
Clients do have some concerns about finger imaging. Roughly 15% expressed concerns in the State surveys and interviews conducted to evaluate finger-imaging programs. These concerns center on issues of privacy, unjust treatment of poor people, inconvenience, and fear of interagency sharing.
There is little data on which to estimate the size of the deterrence effect. Based on the results from client surveys in five States, a substantial majority of clients had no objection to finger imaging and thought it was a good idea.
There was little evidence that clients discontinued benefits because they were intimidated by the finger-image requirement. Interviews with former clients in Texas found that only two of the 78 former food stamp recipients (both of whom had refused to be imaged) attributed their loss of benefits to finger imaging. Similar interviews in Los Angeles County found that, of those former clients interviewed, no one who refused to be finger imaged expressed a concern with the process.
Since there is no reliable estimate of the magnitude of duplicate participation in the FSP, there is uncertainty regarding the cost effectiveness of finger imaging. Available data are inadequate to make precise estimates of either the costs or benefits of finger imaging for the FSP. Calculations using the data that are available, supplemented by a number of assumptions, suggest that reduction in caseload covers the costs of finger imaging technology. However, the percentage of the caseload reduction due to decreased multiple participation is unclear.
The analysis makes no assumption about how costs or benefits are allocated among Federal or State agencies. In addition, it does not include the cost required to modify existing software to make it compatible with the finger-imaging system. Finally, it does not take into account that certain cost elements, such as the cost for infrastructure or centralized equipment, may be independent of caseload fluctuation.
As I rapidly approach pension age what bothers me somewhat is if when the time comes and I have to put my hand out for government benefits will I be then told that I will not be given a pension unless I take a microchip implant under the skin akin to the Mark of the Beast.
Effectively, what that would then mean is that they are going to have those of my age the preverbal barrel in that if we want to eat, then we will have to take the Mark of the Beast.
That is how the carnal man is going to think, but should not be the way the Born Again Christian should think relative to the prospect of the Mark ever becoming compulsory.
The word of God makes it quite plain that those who have Christ will miraculously be provided for irrespective of the state of their respective bank balances. I am still not one of those who is thinking along the lines of something that is not in the word of God to begin with - the Rapture of the Church.
Meaning, I do not believe that I, or anyone else for that matter, is suddenly going to be whisked off the face of the earth before the Mark of the Beast becomes compulsory, as that is simply not going to happen.

Janette Howard and the couple's youngest son Richard were at the palace to witness the ceremony.
"I am touched by the personal compliment, but I also see it very much as a mark of the Queen's great affection and esteem for Australia," Mr Howard said.
The Order of Merit is limited to just 24 living recipients, including distinguished scientists, writers, musicians and artists.
Prince Philip and Prince Charles, former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, Sir Richard Attenborough and Sir Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web, are among those on the list.
On Sunday, the Howards will board one of the 1,000 boats in the jubilee flotilla, which will sail down the Thames to celebrate the Queen's 60 years on the throne.
The Order of Merit is a dynastic order recognising distinguished service in the armed forces, science, art, literature, or for the promotion of culture.
Established in 1902 by King Edward VII, admission into the order remains the personal gift of its Sovereign, the reigning monarch of the Commonwealth realms, and is limited to 24 living recipients at one time from these countries plus a limited number of honorary members.
We are Living in Truly Amazing Times!
The Order of Merit has the shape of the Iron Cross. The Iron Cross (German: Eisernes Kreuz) being a cross symbol typically in black with a white or silver outline that originated after 1219 when the Christians European knights, artisans, and farmers lived in a totally integrated society, from the native inhabitants, who were thoroughly Arabicized and/or Islamicized and were a constant threat from the European foreign crusaders.
There is a great deal of the German tradition attached to the Iron Cross with the Kingdom of Jerusalem granted the Teutonic Order (a German kingdom)
The Order of Brothers of the German House of Saint Mary (a purely religious Catholic order) in Jerusalem the right to combine the Teutonic Black Cross (formed to aid Christians) placed above Silver Cross of Jerusalem (a Holy Roman Empire from Henry IV, the German king).
Headed by the one the word of God calls the Antichrist, with the rise and rise of the Fourth Reich in Germany there is much symbolism attached to the Iron Cross shape of the Order of Merit and the instance of the crown attached to the piece at the top.
It seems to be glaringly obvious that as the shape of the Order of Merit is that of an Iron Cross the crown at the top of the piece represented the Antichrist as being of German origin heading a New World Order.
Accordingly, is this then going to be a symbol that the Antichrist is going to have attached to his personage at all times when he finally takes control of the entire realm that so many like to commonly refer to as being a Revised Roman Empire, and then of course the whole world.
