Parasitic banks run the world

The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim; nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands, able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.

- RUSERE SHONIWA AND HENRY WIDDAS

WHEN you investigate the operations of world power structures and begin to understand the enormous influence they wield over our lives, the question that pops up continuously is: who controls the world?

Grappling with that question can turn into an exploration of a Russian doll power hierarchy. Who or what is the giant doll housing all the smaller ones nestled inside it?

To that end, we could seek out institutions that are unaccountable to nation-states and yet indisputably control the economic fabric of the lives of all those living within those states.

A syndicate of international central banks finances wars and, through their banking cartel members, they control the allocation of economic resources within societies.

This all happens behind a curtain of financial wizardry, and it will continue unhindered unless more of us become aware of the fact that all nation-states are not sovereign.
