1957. Robert Boothby was one of the small group of members of Parliament which included P.C.Loftus, to whom this book is dedicated, who saw the damage that the policy of inflation would bring that was being forced upon the nation in the early 1930's. As he said: "It was a terrible thing to have to watch this country savaging herself, year after year, in the grip of an economic theory and system which had ceased to have any validity". As to those who tried to alert the public - for their efforts they were dismissed as monetary cranks."At a Gala dinner in Leeds, On October the 21st 2008, Mervyn King, the acting Governor of the Bank of England, announced to a sombre audience that the bank finds itself in the same position it faced at the onset of the Great War in the summer of 1914, however, he made no mention of how the then Secretary to the Treasury - John Bradbury – solved that identical problem back then by intervening with an issue of 500 million Treasury Notes which were given to the banks free of charge to stop them collapsing after they ran out of enough gold coins to redeem the millions of baseless “Promises to Pay” that they had issued to a unsuspecting public. He could have recommended similar measures on this occasion but chose, instead, to remain silent. Three days later, Mr. Bean, the appropriately named Deputy Governor of the Bank of England, announced that the crisis was the worst in the entire history of mankind

1988 The reason why these 'cures' continue to fail were pointed out in the summer of 1988 by Economics Professor John. H. Hotson Chairman of C.O.M.E.R. Committee On Economic & Monetary Reform, at Waterloo University, Ontario, Canada. Who said in the organization's news letter:-"Here we go again! John Crow, the new head of the Bank of Canada and Allan Greenspan, the new man at the Federal Reserve Board have given a lot of speeches and interviews lately saying that if there is one thing they can't stand it's inflation. So they are going to get inflation down to zero any day now, even if it kills somebody [or every body]! Yes, they are going to haul inflation down to zero with high interest rates. Now that's never worked before. The fact is, that we've had inflation in every year, but one, since the Bank of Canada was invented in 1934. The facts also suggest that if our political leaders allow Greenspan and Crow to play doctor with the economy that the result will be a replay of 1979-83 if we are lucky or a re-run of 1929-39 if we are not. When you get right down to it, there are at least eight things wrong with the policy of trying to stop the price level from increasing by increasing the rate of interest. (1) The Policy is immoral. (2) The policy is illegal. (3) The Policy is irrational. (4) The Policy has surrendered North America's leadership to the Japanese. (5) The Policy has made all our problems worse. (6) The - Policy has caused the large U.S., Canadian [and British] foreign trade deficits. (7) The Policy has increased the [fractional reserve] banking systems natural propensity to self destruct. And (8) The Policy has resulted in a world wide debt crisis where our only choices appear to be between, world wide debt repudiation, depression, and accelerating inflation. Except for these shortcomings, high interest rates are a pretty good policy."

*1993 ANTHONY NELSON – H.M. TREASURY: The Government can and does finance itself to a small extent by the issue of non-interest bearing money: this is the aggregate known as M0, the stock of which is currently some £19.5 billion. The size of the stock of M0 is limited (only) by the demand for this form of money.

BRIAN GOULD: On February the 19th 1993; New Statesman & Society, published the following statement by Brian Gould, speaking as the Labour Member of Parliament for Dagenham, in which he said: - "Why not commit a Labour government to two simple targets - full employment and a decent home for all? And if the private banking sector persist in its failure to develop a system of industrial banking, why not use the power of the state to make good that deficiency by setting up a major publicly owned investment bank? And while we are about it, why shouldn't a socially aware and economically responsible government create credit where appropriate in order to ensure that essential investment is made and at the same time strike a great blow for the democratic control of the economy?

LORD ACTON: “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupt absolutely…the issue which has swept down the centuries and must be fought sooner or later – is the people versus the banks.”

*THIS HISTORY PROVES THAT - LIKE ALL THE OTHER RECESSIONS SINCE 1694 – THIS ONE COULD BE ENDED IN 24 HOURS AND THE OTHER ROAD TO SERFDOM AVERTED USING THE “QUANTITATIVE” EXPANSION OF THE M0 AGGREGATE FROM 2% TO 100% - THEY ARE LYING WHEN THEY SAY THEY NEED TO CUT PUBLIC SERVICES & RAISE TAXES

The distributor is Lionsgate Films which, in the UK and the US, has played a leading part in the new wave of feature-length documentaries. In recognition of the film's significance, ITV screened the film its entirety in the UK with only one commercial break on 20 August 2007.

Set in Latin America and the US, it explores the historic and current relationship of Washington with countries such as Venezuela, Bolivia and Chile. "The film tells a universal story," says Pilger, "analysing and revealing, through vivid testimony, the story ofgreat power behind its venerable myths. It allows us to understand the true nature of the so-called war on terror".

The Project

We urgently need volunteers and help to avoid unjustice and hatred!

Do you see yourself as the Vulture?

2009-10-25T06:40:00.000-07:00

The photo in the mail is the "Pulitzer prize" winning photo taken during the Sudan Famine in 1994. The picture depicts a famine stricken child crawling towards a United Nations Food Camp, located a kilometer away.

The Vulture is waiting for the child to die so he can eat it. This picture shocked the whole world. No one knows what happened to the child , including the photographer Kevin Carter who left the place soon as the photo was taken.

Kevin Carter later committed suicide due to depression!

Wednesday, January 3, 2007 - We should look at the Ants as an example

2009-10-25T06:18:00.000-07:00

So harmonious in its survival and for its colony.

The Ants are a beautiful example of how man should live in harmony on Earth. Time and time again, the scriptures (Quran) reminds us to look at his creation for signs and to take heed.
"Behold! In the creation of the heavens (space) and the earth and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding. Those who remember Allah standing, sitting and lying down on their sides, and contemplate the (wonders of) creation in the heavens and the earth, (saying): 'Our Lord! You have not created (all) this without purpose, Glory to You! Give us salvation from the punishment of the Fire."
(Al-Imran 3:190-191).

It also explains that we should learn from other communities and see the signs. "All the creatures on earth are communities like you... " Quran, 6:38Ants are amazing creatures and are the most successful creatures around in terms of organisational skills and their social out look. The life of an individual Ant is not important - but the survival of the colony is critical. The
colony acts like a "Super Ant State" and cares for each other. It will give its life away just to protect the community. It does not just live for its self, but for others within the community. Only Ants and humans keep animals for domestic needs. They are like animal shepherds and flock their food for their community. There is a whole chapter in the Quran named after the Ants - 27. The Ants (An-Naml). So its very important to implement the attributes of the Ants or even the Bees for the matter within our community as outlined in our Economic Model.

Please view the following video to give you an idea of the attributes I am talking about. ENJOY THE VIEWING!

Dear Brother Riaz,

As Salaam Aleikum !

I received your reflections on Islam today and am impressed with its scope anddiversity. Many of your ideas have occured to others in the past but because oflimitations on travel and communications it was difficult to develop consensus and specific action plans. Today with the modern internet it is possible to recycle ideas about the real meaning of Islam, and of equal importance, how to comply with the wonderful presciptions.In that regard I would suggest you invite a peer group of interested ones to begin to engage in a discussion of relevent topics, one by one.

For instance:
* The role of logic and reason in Islam
* The role of science and technology in Islam
* Distinguishing between form, substance and ceremony in Islam
* The proper role of formal education in Islam
* How to achieve, expand self reconcilliation and contentment based upon theprescriptions of Islam
Inshallah the informed reponses received will create Islamic models the world will
aspire to duplicate and sprad.
Sincerely,

Khalid Abdullah Tariq Al-Mansour.

Monday, January 1, 2007 - My draft proposal - first Draft

2009-10-24T14:06:00.000-07:00

This is my DRAFT PROPOSAL

Justice Project for a reformation to present economic system. A second draft is coming out soon which will have more substance. The first part is self-critical and the second part of the model shows the backbone of the "Economic Sytem" that needs to be in place. The system is based on Quranic Principles and shows how beautifully this system distibutes wealth, education, power and helps get the people involved in the society they live in
