My local news anchor has retired as news anchor today. She is the first female co-anchor in evening news in a major market, (even an anchor of nightly news before Barbara Walters became co-anchor of the Today show.) She has always been my TV anchor for my entire life. She has been on the tv longer than I've been alive. 46 years she has been with NBC news, she also was the fill in for the Today Show co-anchor (was offered co-anchor for the Today show after Jane left-she turned them down.)

Wow! It is exciting that she could last that long but I am sure very sad for all of her regulars that she is leaving.

Today I am in the library cleaning out my first yahoo email address ever. It was up to almost 4000 emails. Most of them from Dealfinder. I have got it down to a cool 1500. I have not been on this email account in forever. (But since I had the same telephone # I was able to get back on.)

Startling revelations from a Swiss banking insider

Peter Odintsov - Interview with a Swiss banker done in Mosсow 30.05.2011

Q: Can you tell us something about your involvement in the Swiss banking business?

A: I have worked for Swiss banks for many years. I was designated as one of the top directors of one of the biggest Swiss banks. During my work I was involved in the payment, in the direct payment in cash to a person who killed the president of a foreign country. I was in the meeting where it was decided to give this cash money to the killer. This gave me dramatic headaches and troubled my conscience. It was not the only case that was really bad but it was the worst.

It was a payment instruction on order of a foreign secret service written by hand giving the order to pay a certain amount to a person who killed the top leader of a foreign country. And it was not the only case. We received several such hand written letters coming from foreign secret services giving the order to payout cash from secret accounts to fund revolutions or for the killing of people. I can confirm what John Perkins has written in his book “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man”. There really exists just a system and Swiss banks are involved in such cases.

Q: Perkins' book is also translated and available in Russian. Can you tell us which bank it is and who was responsible?

A: It was one of the top three Swiss banks at that time and it was the president of a country in the third world. But I don’t want to give out to many details because they will find me very easily if I say the name of the president and the name of the bank. I will risk my life.

Q: You can’t name any person in the bank either?

A: No I can’t, but I can assure you this happened. We were several persons in the meeting room. The person in charge of the physical payment of the cash came to us and asked us if he is allowed to payout such a big amount in cash to that person and one of the directors explained the case and all others said ok you can do it.

Q: Did this happened often? Was this kind of a slush fund?

A: Yes. This was a special fund managed in a special place in the bank were all the coded letters came in from abroad. The most important letters were hand written. We had to decipher them and in them was the order to pay a certain amount of cash from accounts for the assassination of people, funding revolutions, funding strikes, funding all sorts of parties. I know that certain people who are Bilderbergers were involved in such orders. I mean they gave the orders to kill.

Q: Can you tell us in what year or decade this happened?

A: I prefer not to give you the precise year but it was in the 80’s.

Q: Did you have a problem with this work?

A: Yes, a very big problem. I could not sleep for many days and after a while I left the bank. If I give you too many details they will trace me. Several secret services from abroad, mostly English speaking, gave orders to fund illegal acts, even the killing of people through Swiss banks. We had to pay on the instructions of foreign powers for the killing of persons who did not follow the orders of Bilderberg or the IMF or the World Bank for example.

Q: This is a very startling revelation that you are making. Why do you feel the urge to say this now?

A: Because Bilderberg is meeting in Switzerland. Because the world situation is getting worse and worse. And because the biggest banks in Switzerland are involved in unethical activities. Most of these operations are outside the balance sheet. It is a multiple of what is officially declared. It's not audited and happening without any taxes. The figures involved have a lot of zeros. It's huge amounts.

Q: So its billions?

A: It's much more, it's trillions, completely unaudited, illegal and besides the tax system. Basically it’s a robbery of everybody. I mean most normal people are paying taxes and abiding by the laws. What is happening here is completely against our Swiss values, like neutrality, honesty and good faith. In the meetings I was involved in, the discussions were completely against our democratic principles. You see, most of the directors of Swiss banks are not locals anymore, they are foreigners, mostly Anglo-Saxon, either American or British, they don’t respect our neutrality, they don’t respect our values, they are against our direct democracy, they just use the Swiss banks for their illegal means.

They use huge amounts of money created out of nothing and they destroy our society and destroy the people world wide just for greed. They seek power and destroy whole countries, like Greece, Spain, Portugal or Ireland and Switzerland will be one of the last in line. And they use China as working slaves. And a person like Josef Ackermann, who is a Swiss citizen, is the top man at a German bank and he uses his power for greed and does not respect the common people. He has quite a few legal cases in Germany and also now in the States. He is a Bilderberger and does not care about Switzerland or any other country.

Q: Are you saying, some of these people that you mention will be at the up-coming Bilderberg meeting in June in St. Moritz?

A: Yes.

Q: So they are currently in a position of power?

A: Yes. They have huge amounts of money available and use it to destroy whole countries. They destroy our industry and build it up in China. On the other hand they opened up the gates in Europe for all Chinese products. The working population of Europe is earning less and less. The real aim is to destroy Europe.

Q: Do you think that the Bilderberg meeting in St. Moritz has symbolic value? Because in 2009 they where in Greece, 2010 in Spain and look what happened to them. Does this mean Switzerland can expect something bad?

A: Yes. Switzerland is one of the most important countries for them, because there is so much capital here. They are meeting there because apart from other things they want to destroy all values that Switzerland stands for. You see it’s an obstacle for them, not being in the EU or Euro, not totally controlled by Brussels and so on. Regarding values I am not talking about the big Swiss banks, because they are not Swiss anymore, most of them are lead by Americans. I am talking about the real Swiss spirit that the common people cherish and hold up.

Sure it has symbolic value, as you said, regarding Greece and Spain. Their aim is to be a kind of exclusive elite club that has all the power and everybody else is impoverished and down.

Q: Do you think that the aim of Bilderberg is to create a kind of global dictatorship, controlled by the big global corporations, where there are no sovereign states anymore?

A: Yes and Switzerland is the only place left with direct democracy and its in their way. They use the blackmail of “too big to fail” as in the case of UBS to put our country in big debt, just like they did with many other countries. In the end maybe they want to do with Switzerland what they did with Iceland, with all the banks and the country bankrupt.

Q: And also bring it in to the EU?

A: Of course. The EU is under the iron grip of Bilderberg.

Q: What do you think could stop this plan?

A: Well that’s the reason I speak to you. Its truth. Truth is the only way. Put a light on this situation, expose them. They don’t like to be in the spotlight. We have to create transparency in the banking industry and in all levels of society.

Q: What you are saying is, there is a correct side to the Swiss banking business and there are a few big banks that are misusing the financial system for their illegal activities.

A: Yes. The big banks are training their staff with Anglo-Saxon values. They are training them to be greedy and ruthless. And greed is destroying Switzerland and everybody else. As a country we have a majority of the most correct operating banks in the world, if you look at the small and midsize banks. Its just the big ones who operate globally that are a problem. They are not Swiss anymore and don’t consider themselves as such.

Q: Do you think it is a good thing that people are exposing Bilderberg and showing who they really are?

A: I think the Strauss-Kahn case is a good chance for us, because it shows these people are corrupt, sick in their minds, so sick they are full of vices and those vices are kept under wraps on their orders. Some of them like Strauss-Kahn rape women, others are sado maso, or paedophile and many are into Satanism. When you go in some banks you see these satanistic symbols, like in the Rothschild Bank in Zurich. These people are controlled by black-mail because of the weaknesses they have. They have to follow orders or they will be exposed, they will be destroyed or even killed. The reputation of Strauss-Kahn is not only killed in the mass media, he could be killed also literally.

Q: Since Ackermann is in the steering committee of Bilderberg, do you think he is a big decision maker there?

A: Yes. But there are many others, like Lagarde, who will probably be the next IMF head, also a member of Bilderberg, then Sarkozy and Obama. They have a new plan to censor the internet, because the internet is still free. They want to control it and use terrorism or whatever as a reason. They could even plan something horrible so that they have an excuse.

Q: So that is your fear?

A: It's not only a fear, I am certain of it. As I said, they gave orders to kill, so they are capable of terrible things. If they have the feeling they are losing control, like the uprising now in Greece and Spain and maybe Italy will be next, then they can do another Gladio. I was close to the Gladio network. As you know they instigated terrorism paid by American money to control the political system in Italy and other European countries. Regarding the murder of Aldo Moro, the payment was done thru the same system as I told you about.

Q: Was Ackermann part of this payment system at a Swiss bank?

A: (Smile) … you are the journalist. Look at his career and how fast he made it to the top.

Q: What do you think can be done to hinder them?

A: Well there are many good books out there that explain the background and connect the dots, like the one I mentioned by Perkins. These people really have hit men that get paid to kill. Some of them get their money through Swiss banks. But not only, they have a system set up all over the world. And to expose to the public these people that are prepared to do anything to keep control. And I mean anything.

Q: Through exposure we could stop them?

A: Yes, telling the truth. We are confronted with really ruthless criminals, also big war criminals. It's worse then genocide. They are ready and able to kill millions of people just to stay in power and in control.

Q: Can you explain from your view, why the mass media in the west is more or less completely silent regarding Bilderberg?

A: Because there is an agreement between them and the owners of the media. You don’t talk about it. They buy them. Also some of the top media figures are invited to the meetings but are told not to report anything they see and hear.

Q: In the structure of Bilderberg, is there an inner circle that knows the plans and then there is the majority who just follow orders?

A: Yes. You have the inner circle who are into Satanism and then there are the naive or less informed people. Some people even think they are doing something good, the outer circle.

Q: According to exposed documents and own statements, Bilderberg decided back in 1955 to create the EU and the Euro, so they made important and far reaching decisions.

A: Yes and you know that Bilderberg was founded by Prince Bernard, a former member of the SS and Nazi party and he also worked for IG Farben, who’s subsidiary produced Cyclone B. The other guy was the head of Occidental Petroleum who had close relations to the communists in the Sowjetunion. They worked both sides but really these people are fascists who want to control everything and everybody and who gets in their way is removed.

Q: Is the payment system you explained outside of normal operations, compartmentalized and in secret?

A: In those Swiss banks the normal employees don’t know this is happening. It's like an own secret department in the bank. As I said these operations are outside of the balance sheet, with no supervision. Some are situated in the same building, others are outside. They have their own security and special area where only authorized people can enter.

Q: How do they keep these transactions out of the international Swift system?

A: Well some of the Clearstream listings were true in the beginning. They just included fake names to make people believe the whole list is fake. You see, they also make mistakes. The first list was true and you can trace a lot of things. You see, there are people around that discover irregularities and the truth and they tell it. Afterwards of course there are lawsuits and these people are forced to shut up.

The best way to stop them is to tell the truth, put the spot light on them. If we don’t stop them we will end up as their slaves.

Q: Thank you for this interview.

History trivia:






This painting in the US Capitol Building depicts George Washington as a god. Find out more about this unique painting
Italian artist Constantino Brumidi was asked to paint a mural in the dome of the United States Capitol Building. Brumidi painted for many of the wealthy in Italy before he immigrated to America to continue painting, and he spent the remainder of his life doing work in the Capitol Building.

Brumidi completed the painting he was asked to create and named it "The Apotheosis of Washington." Apotheosis is the glorification of a person on a divine level. He decided to depict Washington this way because he was America's first president and lead the Continental Army to victory during the American Revolution.

Washington is surrounded by other figures from classical mythology, along with 13 other maidens with stars above their heads to represent the thirteen colonies. If you look closely, a number of these maidens have their back faced towards Washington. This was to represent the colonies that withdrew from the Union at the time the painting was drawn.

Furthermore, there is an outer circle around Washington and the maidens that is barely visible when looking up at the painting from the main floor of the Capitol Building. There are also six different scenes that represent different national concepts that make up the United States. The six different scenes start at Washington's feet and include war, science, marine, commerce, mechanics, and agriculture. Brumidi added these scenes to show what powers the United States.

So, next time you are in our nation's capital, be sure to look up when entering the Capitol Building!

I went to see the movie Maleficent.

God, I want to be Maleficent for real. She flew so fast and fierce. She was the female superhero I always wanted to see.

Why is it that when a woman superhero is tough and sexy, she is bad? Wonder woman is the exception. Loved everything about Maleficent!

I think every human and animal wants to be good.


It's just that there a lot of them, who have no conscious.

So, for them, being good, is being good for yourself and make others think you are good. Because they lack conscious, they assume everybody is like themselves. They are incapable of grasping the idea of helping others, without reward for themselves. They don't feel true love. These individuals lack the capability to make a true emotional connection with others.

Only people with a conscious do that. They understand that the group is better off when everybody helps each other. Even though that means the individual reward is less. People with a conscious don't understand that not everybody has that same mind set.

So, the ruthless folks can easily lie to those with a conscious.

They tell themselves it's okay, because if they don't do it, somebody else would do it. These kind of lies and cognitive distortions serve them to keep their own self image in tact. Remember, they think of themselves as good humans.

Those with a conscious are easy to lie to, because they can't imagine that somebody would not tell the truth, just for his individual gain. THey are easy prey.



So, what's the solution to this?

Should people who do have a conscience also be taught to be ruthless?

Or should people who have no conscience be taught that they harm themselves, by harming other people, animals and are a thread to the existence of the earth?

Or is it just a matter of waiting till those without a conscious have ruined planet earth?

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

i think about this as well. at what point do ordinary people stand against the corporations who are plundering the planet? if you lived next door to a newly established fracking industry, for example, would you sabotage it in the dead of night? would you be wrong, but also right? if you knew how to hack into [insert name of evil military industrial war waging machine here] bank account, and did so in order to 're-distribute the wealth' and shut them down, would that be evil? i really do not know. can one commit an evil act, in the name of 'good', and still remain good? some of god's angels are warriors, and jesus himself laid one on in that whole money lenders in the temple thing. was that right? busting up their tables and tossing them about in a fit of rage?

it must have been, if jesus did it. so can we ordinary people do the same sort of thing in the name of doing good?

Those with a conscious are easy to lie to, because they can't imagine that somebody would not tell the truth, just for his individual gain. THey are easy prey.



So, what's the solution to this?

Should people who do have a conscience also be taught to be ruthless?

Or should people who have no conscience be taught that they harm themselves, by harming other people, animals and are a thread to the existence of the earth?

Or is it just a matter of waiting till those without a conscious have ruined planet earth?





i think about this as well. at what point do ordinary people stand against the corporations who are plundering the planet? if you lived next door to a newly established fracking industry, for example, would you sabotage it in the dead of night? would you be wrong, but also right? if you knew how to hack into [insert name of evil military industrial war waging machine here] bank account, and did so in order to 're-distribute the wealth' and shit them down? i really do not know. can one commit an evil act, in the name of 'good', and still remain good? some of god's angels are warriors, and jesus himself laid one on in that whole money lenders in the temple thing. was that right?



Doing something illegal, does not mean it's a bad act.

Nor does a stamp of legality makes it good.


Laws are simply invented in order to establish some kind of common sense about just or not.

And then the justice system got ruled by those who saw it as a means to gain control over other humans in order to get rich and gain power.

Same as the origin of religion. The original ideas and symbols came from a good heart. However, then the Romans used it as a mean to control people in an easy and cheap manner. And since then, many other individuals with the same need for control and power have enrolled their own interpretation or religion for that same cause. To feel morrally better than others and grow a system and install institutions that are effective to control large groups of people.

I truly belief that most religious people are good people. They want to be good and wholeheartedly belief every word spoken by the pastor (or whatever title the leader gives himself).

And leaders easily change their religious statements or beliefs, if that is necessery to stay in control. And followers rather convince themselves that they are doing the right thing, than taking the risk of accepting the painful insight that their years of dedication was superficial.


It's horrible to be scrupulous honest to oneself. And about others.



The only thing one can do, is not buying products from bad energy, or GMO seeds. I don't mindlessly buy products that are made by modern slavery in China or India.

However, in the end, I also think it's great to be rich and buy expensive stuff and have everybody love you, just because you have money.


It's just not in my character to become that.
