Some of you undoubtedly have seen the video posted on YouTube on September 28th, 2008 where Texas Republican Michael Burgess suggested that the US was under Martial Law.
This isn’t entirely true BUT it’s worth reading a follow up article by Ian Brockwell that provides some interesting insight on the situation.

US under Martial Law? – Not yet, but…
Ian Brockwell
September 29, 2008
In a “hot” new video appearing on YouTube, Rep. Michael Burgess (R-Texas) stated “I understand we are under Martial Law, as declared by the speaker last night”Whilst this is something that you might expect the speaker (Nanci Pelosi) to declare and the Bush administration to desire, Mr. Burgess was hopefully using the term “Martial Law” in a figurative manner, in order to express his disgust (and that of many others) at the way in which this “bailout” deal is being conducted.
George Bush has created many new executive orders during his term, enabling him to introduce Martial Law for a variety of reasons: A terrorist attack, civil disturbances, Flu outbreaks, weather related disasters and more. It is not impossible that he could declare the current financial crisis as a “National Disaster”.
However, the real problem lies with the Federal Reserve and the power they have to control the United States (and many other institutions around the world), including the political system of course.
The Federal Reserve is nothing more than a private bank (with no reserves), run by people who used to be called “money changers” in bygone days. They may have a fancy title today, but their motives have not changed.
These “money changers” have been around for more than 2,000 years, manipulating world events and money supplies, in order to satisfy their greed and need for power.
Having the ability to control a country´s money supply enables them to dictate the destiny of others, by creating a false crisis in order to buy up failing companies at a fraction of their real value, which later become very profitable when they decide to increase the money flow again.
This control is used on the stock markets, forcing prices down to make an attractive “buy”, guaranteeing a very healthy profit in the future (and more control over the competition).
We have seen these tactics being used for centuries, with “money changers” either using existing problems to make a profit, or creating them (including wars).
A good example is the owner of a coin shop in Frankfurt Germany, whose sign over the shop was a Roman Eagle on a Red shield. In German “Red Shield” means Rothschild. The Rothschild Family (usually referred to as just the Rothschilds) is an international banking and finance dynasty of German Jewish origin that established operations across Europe.
The beginning of the Rothschilds “fortunes” began during the early 1800´s, where Nathan Mayer Rothschild made huge profits from the Napoleonic wars and a somewhat dubious deal with the Prussian government.
Their influence (and one could say their methods) are still very much in evidence today. Check out J.P. Morgan, their connections and the role they are playing in this crisis.
We only have to look at those behind the Federal Reserve (then and now) to clearly see that the financial system is still run by “The Usual Suspects”.
The proposed “bailout” will not solve the problem, the problem is the system itself and those who control it, only by changing that will the situation improve. In the meantime we remain in the hands of the “money changers” and must whistle to their tune, whilst pretending that the paper they print is money!
Martial Law is still a possibility, but the “money changer´s law” is the root of the problem and that is what needs our most urgent attention. But does anyone have the courage to take them on?
