Society today, is composed of a series of institutions. From political institutions legal institutions religious institutions. To institutions of social class familial values and occupational specialization. It is obvious the profound influence these traditionalized structures have in shaping our understandings and perspectives.
Yet, of all the social institutions, we are born into directed by and conditioned upon there seems to be no system as taken for granted and misunderstood as the monetary system. Taking on nearly religious proportions the established monetary institution exists as one of the most unquestioned forms of faith there is. How money is created, the policies by which it is governed . and how it truly affects society are unregistered interests of the great majority of the population.
One thing is clear. Something is very wrong. And, whether we are aware of it or not the lifeblood of all of our established institutions and thus society itself, is money. Therefore, understanding this institution of monetary policy is critical to understanding why our lives are the way they are. Unfortunately, economics is often viewed with confusion and boredom. Endless streams of financial jargon coupled with intimidating mathematics quickly deters people from attempts at understanding it. However, the fact is: The complexity associated with the financial system is a mere mask designed to conceal one of the most socially paralyzing structures humanity has ever endured. "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free." -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - 1749-1832

Not sure why you all consider that a bad thing.
Between 1933 and 1945, the board of directors of the BIS included Walter Funk, a prominent Nazi official; and Emil Puhl, who were both convicted at the Nuremberg trials after World War II, as well as Hermann Schmitz, the director of IG Farben; and Baron von Schroeder, the owner of the J.H.Stein Bank, the bank that held the deposits of the Gestapo. There were allegations that the BIS had helped the Germans loot assets from occupied countries during World War II.

Please explain to me how the Rothschilds "own" the BIS???
Cause when I look here - Board of Directors - I don't see them.
And when I look here - Management - I don't see them.
And I even looked here - Former Board - and here - Former Management - and STILL didn't see a single Rothschild.
So consider me puzzled....
The establishment of the BIS
The Bank for International Settlements was established in 1930. It is the world's oldest international financial institution and remains the principal centre for international central bank cooperation.
The BIS was established in the context of the Young Plan (1930), which dealt with the issue of the reparation payments imposed on Germany by the Treaty of Versailles following the First World War. The new bank was to take over the functions previously performed by the Agent General for Reparations in Berlin: collection, administration and distribution of the annuities payable as reparations. The Bank's name is derived from this original role. The BIS was also created to act as a trustee for the Dawes and Young Loans (international loans issued to finance reparations) and to promote central bank cooperation in general.
The Dawes Plan, the Young Plan, German Reparations, and Inter-allied War Debts
In the years following the First World War, issues of debt repayment and reparations troubled relations between the Allies and the now defeated Germany. The American-sponsored Dawes and Young Plans offered a possible solution to these challenges.
Hmmmm, seems that all the countries that were labeled as a "terrorist" have certain traits in common that are not exibited by countries such as Australia.
This way of thinking assumes that the only issue that is important in the world is whether or not your part of some banking system.

I can only speak for myself but the idea of "elites " trying to reduce the global population (wars) makes no sense to me, particularly in relation to people like the Rothschilds.
Allow me to explain. The Elites are obsessed with money, which leads to power. If they want to keep on increasing their wealth (and therefore their power base) then they need more people on the planet, not less. In basic economic terms, more people = more customers = more wealth.

It's in the beginning of the op...
The BS for International Settlements (BIS) was established by an intergovernmental agreement in 1930 by the Rothschild Family. It is an international organization of all the central banks serving as a bank for central banks. As an international institution, it is not accountable to any single national government.
Your puzzle is solved...
One more time...
The BS for International Settlements (BIS) was established by an intergovernmental agreement in 1930 by the Rothschild Family.
and one more for luck...
The BS for International Settlements (BIS) was established by an intergovernmental agreement in 1930 by the Rothschild Family.
Come on man...WAKE UP !!!

You have left out a lot of countries, the UK, Canada, Australia - in fact most if not all the Commonwealth countries....
Why did you leave them off your list?
