G8 action call-out this friday

imc | 03.02.2005 21:59 | London

A call out has been made for for people to counter the G8 meeting in London this Friday 4th February, 6pm, Lancaster House, The Mall.

"For these celebrities of capitalism the show must go on, there is nothing else we can be, they say. The insanity inducing G8 programme to ‘save’ only half the worlds affected populations from death from already preventable hunger and disease in what is the ongoing genocide of 40,000 a day, 6 million every 150 days, is only exceeded in its fucked up-ness by setting the completion date half way into the next decade. The UK G8 presidency’s ‘Africa plan’ to double aid, if successful, will bring it level with one tenth of what America plans to be spending on its military this year.
And climate-change? With a likely tipping point of atmospheric carbon dioxide levels reported last week to be ten years or less away, “irretrievably committing the world to disastrous changes including the failure of agriculture, major drought, rising sea levels... death of forests.....”, we can only find something else to be!"

FINANCIAL G7 - BANKRUPT!

Referring to the latest wave of ‘mega-mergers’ in America, The Guardian business leader last weekend rather inanely asked, “Should we care that we seem to be careering towards some sort of Blade Runneresque world, where a handful of corporations own and run absolutely everything?”

Welcome to the financial G7:
The financial G7 brings together the central bank governors and finance ministers of the seven richest countries in the world. Some time ago the Financial Times commented (if corporations are the new gods)...“Central bankers are the masters now. Presidents and Prime Ministers may play at war and peace. They can prance abroad and posture at home. But money is different.....We are to put our trust instead in greyer men in darker suits.”
Each of these G7 central bankers sit on the board of directors of The Bank of International Settlements (BIS) in Switzerland, the central bank of central banks. The meetings of the ‘Basel Club’ are disturbed by nothing. During the Second World War, the BIS quietly carried on its activities, with bankers from both sides meeting under the presidency of Thomas McKittrick, an American who was ‘officially neutral’ in the conflict. Diplomatic immunity, courtesy of the Swiss government, no doubt comes in handy from time to time for these gentlemen.

Today, the total independence of the central banks from national governments has become a requirement of the ‘international financial community’. The new European Central Bank, for example, is totally protected under its statutes from political influence. Now that the global financial market determines the rules of the game, the role of central bankers is to ensure the efficient operation of the world financial system by adapting national finances to global policies. “Globalisation is not our enemy but our friend if, and only if, we are prepared for the journey it will take us on.” Blair ‘revealed’ to the City of London last March. “Some people are just better at moving than others”, advertised Mercedes-Benz.

One spiritual perspective on the G7/G8

Bible prophecy predicts globalization

"The Insider" mailing list article, 23 February 2003.

The process of globalisation formally began in 1975 when, from 15th to 17th November, the leaders of France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America met in the first annual economic summit of the world's greatest nations.

This first meeting, the Sommet d'Rambouillet, was arranged by the French President, Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, and held in the Château de Rambouillet near Paris, France. "On the agenda were international monetary disorder and the oil crisis."[1]

The G7 group of elite nations was officially founded in 1976, when Canada joined the globalisation club at its second meeting, held in Puerto Rico on 27 and 28 June 1976. Since then, G7 has met each year to discuss the progress of globalisation and decide the next stages of the New World Order. "Each summit is unique and takes the G7 one step further in its evolution. The 1995 summit in Halifax, Canada, led to significant changes in the way in which the World Bank, the IMF and other international organisations operated."

The G7 economic alliance was extended to eight member states when Russia joined in 1998, although the Russians will not host the summit until 2006. According to the official website, the G7 agenda "has now turned to a more structural and global perspective and has added a wide range of political and social issues to its workload".[2]

Students of ancient prophecy should be aware of certain parallels between the establishment of G7 and the signs and events expected to precede the Apocalypse according to Christian scripture. The parable or riddle of the "seven kings" in The Revelation to St John "calls for a mind that has wisdom"[3], and can be interpreted as seven great nations leading the world for a period prior to Judgement day.

The End-Times prophecy in the Bible specifically predicts the reign of the being who the Christians call God being established by twenty-four leaders of the people of Earth. The first globalisation summit was attended by exactly twenty-four delegates - four from each of the six most affluent nations. The numbers may be highly significant, because the relevant text comprises verses 15 to 17 of the eleventh chapter in the Book of Revelation, and either by coincidence or by design G7 was founded between the 15th and the 17th days of the eleventh month.

"Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were
loud voices in heaven, saying, 'The kingdom of the world
has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah,
and he will reign forever and ever.' Then the twenty-four
elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their
faces and worshiped God, singing, 'We give you thanks,
Lord God Almighty, who are and who were, for you
have taken your great power and begun to reign.'"[4]

The G7 elite met in Paris last weekend to address the worsening crisis of global recession.[5] Senior financial ministers and politicians from the world's seven most powerful economies warned the US President that his tax cuts of $695 billion, which are designed to benefit the richest 1% of Americans, will "destabilise a world economy already undermined by threat of war in Iraq".[6]

This prophetic parallel was first recognised by Mr T. V. Acheson in 1999, and this article is the first time that it has ever been documented in the public domain. In the words of Mr Acheson (1999), "You may not believe in gods or prophecy, but among the leaders of nations there are those who do."

The annual Bilderberg Group conference is the most important meeting in the world. It is attended annually by more world leaders, more top politicians, more royalty, and business leaders, than any other gathering of any kind. The G8 summit is a mere side-show in comparison. No other meeting is attended by the leaders of all the major international institutions, such as the World Bank, the IMF, the UN, and the EU.
