"You're rolling." "What happened on 9/11 is a phoney, you know." "And we've never learned the truth about 9/11." "The whole agenda is to create a one World Government where everybody has an RFID chip implanted in them." "All money is to be in those chips." "And this is given to me straight from Rockefeller, who said this is what they want to accomplish." ""Aaron, what do you think Women's Liberation was about?" "We the Rockefellers funded that." "We funded Women's Lib."" "They do whatever they wanna do." "What we want doesn't matter anymore." "It's their agenda, it's their plans that matter." "They have all the money they want." "They can make all the money they want." "They have a machine, they can make all the money." "It's not about money." "It's about control, it's about their vision of how they wanna see the world." "You hear George Bush saying:" ""Democracy, it means freedom."" "No." "Democracy equals New World Order." "I believe God put me on this Earth to be the best person I could be, and put everybody on this Earth to be the best they can be." "You have to stand up for what's right in life." "Unless you do that, you are nothing." "Award-winning film-maker turned freedom fighter," "Aaron Russo was an amazing individual." "You know, he'd been battling cancer for more than 3 and a half years when he began making America:" "Freedom to Fascism that he shot, directed, edited pretty much on his own with just the help of a few people." "An amazing individual!" "A long life of award-winning films, of hard work and of standing up for the Bill of Rights and Constitution." "You know, when we first went to shop this interview," "I put it on the web for free." "But parts of it have never been seen." "So here today, you're gonna have a chance to see the in-depth interview, the final interview with Aaron Russo." "But his important work lives on." "He made one of the definitive films exposing the elite that control this nation and the world, the private Federal Reserve." "And the information he put out 2 years ago rings more true today than ever." "And his film America:" "Freedom to Fascism and Mad as Hell and the other great works he did - just continue, like ripples on a pond, to light bushfires in the minds of men and women everywhere." "So this film is dedicated to the one and only Aaron Russo!" "You're rolling." "I'm honored to be interviewed by Alex Jones, a truth seeker fighting for justice in America." "Nice  charming get me all smiley." "Aaron, when did you start to think something was wrong in the world, start to find out about the whole banking cartel, the Federal Reserve System, about the New World Order?" "Well, that was a progression of events." "I've always been a very independent person, always believed in individuality and that we were put on this Earth to be unique individuals to fulfill our God-given potential." "And that the only way to fulfill your potential is to be free, to find out who you are and to make errors, to make mistakes." "And as I grew up, I began to realize more and more the government was inhibiting me in things that I wanted to do." "And what happened:" "I was very successful in the ladies' lingerie business," "I worked for my dad, he had a small undergarment business." "And I created the first ladies' bikini panties back in 1963 actually." "And then, I opened up a nightclub in Chicago called The Electric Theater that opened up the day Martin Luther King was assassinated." "Wow!" "So the City of Chicago was in flames the day my club opened, and nobody came out to the club." "And what happened was that there was the Democratic Convention in Chicago in '68." "So my club became a hang-out for the hippies, you know, cause they wanted to go to Chicago and protest what was going on." "I was having a concert at my club one night to raise money." "And the police raided the nightclub, my club for no reason at all." "I was standing outside in my office overlooking the street." "And I saw all these party wagons pulling up in front of my club." "I was a 24-year-old kid." "I had no experience at all, really." "So what are these party wagons doing here?" "And then I saw all these cops getting out of the party wagons, coming into my club." "Oh, my God!" "They're raiding me!" "So I ran down to the stage, and I got on the stage," "I stopped the band from playing." "And I said to the people in the audience:" ""We're being raided." "So sit down on the floor, cooperate." "Provide your identification and cooperate with the police."" "As I said that, two of the cops from behind threw me onto the floor and grabbed me and started dragging me out of the club." "And I'm going, you know:" "Victory!" "Victory!" "It was worth at the time, I was a kid." "Then I saw the fire department there, the fire department was dumping garbage cans, the garbage all over the floor." "I thought to myself:" ""Why were they doing that?"" "Very quickly, as they were dragging me out." "I didn't quite understand it." "So they threw me into the party wagon." "As I got to the party wagon, one of the cops grabbed my testicles from behind and squeezed." "And I went to the party wagon in gigantic pain." "The next person that came into the party wagon, as he was stepping in, the cops took their billy club, smashed him on the head with it, and just split a scull." "For no reason!" "I mean, there was nothing wrong!" "So that was kind of your awakening." "That was my awakening, it's like: what is going on?" "I thought this was America." "I earnestly blamed it on Chicago, on Mayor Daley, thinking it was Chicago." "Anyway, it was the headlines of the newspapers the next day." "There was my picture in the newspapers, the headlines: "Electric Theater short-circuited, it was raided."" "And in the article, they went ahead and they said that the reason they raided the club was because the fire department came there and saw it was messy, full of garbage, and the hippies started attacking them, which was totally not true!" "Those turdy hippies!" "It was totally false!" "It was a complete fabrication!" "So they ran a false flag on you?" "They framed you?" "Yeah, of course!" "I was in shock!" "People lie like that?" "People actually do these things?" "I couldn't believe it!" "It was an awakening to me!" "And I went on television, I told people on television that they lied." "Nobody cared!" "Nobody cared what the truth was!" "It was shocking to me!" "Then a week or two weeks later (I forget exactly when it was), two cops come to see me, Lieutenant and a Sergeant, or Captain and a Sergeant." "And they said: "Mr. Russo, we're sorry if you got hurt that night at the club, in the raid." "But we're here to tell you that if you wanna keep the club open, it's gonna take $2,000 a month." "We can come see you once a month." "Whenever we have to raid you, we're gonna call you." "And we'll let you know we're gonna come in tonight and raid you."" "This was mafia!" "The police mafia." "It was actually more interesting than that." "They said: "Listen, there's the A plan, there's the B plan, and there's the Super Deluxe plan." "Each one will cost you that much money a month." "Which one do you want?"" "What was the Super Deluxe?" "That's the one I took." "That was a $2,000 a month plan." "I took that plan, I paid them $2,000 a month, and they left me alone." "And whenever they were gonna raid the club, they would call me:" ""We're gonna raid, we have a phoney raid tonight just to look good for the people in the neighborhood."" "So that was your first brigantic action?" "That was my education into corruption and government." "But I really thought that was basically Chicago." "I didn't realize it was the whole country like that." "So that was my wake-up call that people lie and cheat and steal." "I thought everybody was always honest and nice and decent." "I had no idea about any of these things." "Well, what happened to me was that one day they came to me and they said: "Look, we can't take your money anymore."" "I said: "Why?" "What's up?" "What's going on?"" "They said: "We have to close your club." "There's elections coming, and the aldermen in the neighborhood don't want you open anymore." "So we can't take your money."" "So I had to go to court and fight them, and they were trying to close the club." "Then one night there was a fire, and the club never reopened again." "The club just closed then." "That was the end of the club, and they've brought me down." "That was the end of my experience." "Then I moved back to New York where I met Bette Midler." "I ran into her at a little nightclub she was playing called the Improv." "I thought she was fabulous, and through a series of events, I began managing her." "As soon as I started managing her, her career took off like a rocket." "We've been very, very successful." "Through managing Bette, I started producing shows on Broadway where I won the Tony." "And I produced television show, I won the Emmy with Dustin Hoffman and Bette." "Then I produced The Rose for her, for which she got Academy Award nominations." "That led me to producing Trading Places, which everybody knows." "That makes the best Eddie Murphy movie." "Well, that's a good one." "Not obviously the best, but that's a really good one." "And I'm very proud I made that movie." "So in my mind, I feel as if I'd made a classic comedy in Trading Places, a classic musical in The Rose, and a classic documentary in Freedom to Fascism." "So I'm very proud of my work that I've done as a film-maker." "Aaron, why do you do this?" "What's the philosophy of your life?" "What do you think life's all about?" "I think the importance of life is to like yourself." "If you don't like yourself, nothing means anything." "To like yourself means you have to respect yourself." "To respect yourself means you have to take actions that you'd respect if somebody else did them." "And what's the point of living if you don't like who you are?" "You can have all the money in the world, and if you look in the mirror and you don't like what you see there, what's the point of it?" "So to me the most important thing is that I like who I am and that I take actions that I would respect if somebody else did them." "Then you live a life of character, honesty, truthfulness." "And I believe that a person has the ability to mold their character like a sculptor can mold a piece of clay." "There's an old saying:" "the leopard never changes its spots." "I don't believe that." "I believe people have the total ability to mold their character into what they choose to be in their life, what their ideals are." "And that's what I've tried to do with my life." "I am not the same person today I was 30 years ago." "I've changed a lot, cause I wanted to be something better than what I was before." "And my philosophy is that you have to like yourself, you have to be a decent person with character and integrity and honor." "That's what's important." "Back in the late '80s, I was a pretty big silver trader and gold trader." "I haven't ever told the story on tape before." "I was a pretty big silver and gold trader." "And I always paid my taxes." "I took what was a legal tax deduction on my silver trades." "A few years later, I think it was '88 or '89 or something, the IRS claimed that what I did, and other people did as well, was now illegal, we couldn't do it anymore." "But they made it retroactive." "So what do you mean retroactive?" "It was legal then, I did what was legal." "They said: "Yeah, but now we're making it illegal retroactively." "And it's not good, so you owe us $600,000-$800,000."" "For what?" "It was legal!" "How could you make something retroactive?" "Change the law backwards in time." "It makes no sense!" "Why're we doing it?" "So everybody said they can't do that, so we went to court, a class action law suit." "And the judge agreed with the IRS and said they could do it retroactively." "That's when I knew that there was something wrong in America with the IRS and the system here, you know." "Aaron, you were telling me the story last night." "And before you even finished saying:" ""In the late '80s, the tax law..."" "I said: "Retroactive." And I knew that, because they literally ruined my dad, but he paid." "He didn't know, he still thought this was America." "And it was legal tax law, what are you supposed to do?" "They said retroactively you owe and with..." "Not just retroactive, but they said:" ""You owe us penalties and interest."" "That's right." "So how do you owe penalties and interest on something when they retroactively changed the law?" "Well, first of all, they can't retroactively...," "How can you do something retroactively?" "Penalties and interest are a farce." "All this cause they do whatever they wanna do." "That's what I realized:" "America is not America." "It's not the land that I was taught it was." "Cause they can do whatever they wish to do." "And there's nothing the citizen can do about it." "Now, you made America:" "Freedom to Fascism." "I'm gonna walk through that film, I wanna encourage everybody out there to get a copy of it on DVD." "It was also in theaters around the country." "I think, the best film out there on the Federal Reserve and the IRS and the whole banker's scam." "And I want to discuss that with you here." "But I wanted to go back a little bit to the point that we discussed last night where you don't advise people to not pay." "And I do the same thing." "People say: "Well, you say it's a scam, but you say go on and pay it?"" "And I liked the way you summed it up." "Well, it's really fairly simple." "I mean, since making that movie, many people've come to me and asked me whether they should pay their income taxes or not." "And I never advise people not to pay." "The reason I tell them, I said:" ""Look, I've done a lot of research." "The Supreme Court has ruled that the IRS has no authority, the 16th Amendment does not give the IRS the authority to tax your labor and your wages." That's a fact." "The Supreme Court is the law of the land." "And the IRS has not trumped the Supreme Court." "However, that being the case, the fact is if the mafia would come to you and say:" ""We want $2,000 a month or we gonna hurt you,"" "I would not advise you not to pay them, cause you make it hurt by not paying them." "Whether it's legal or not doesn't necessarily matter." "You gonna get hurt if you don't." "It's the same thing with the IRS." "They can hurt you." "They can put you in jail." "They can torture you." "So if you don't pay them, you make it hurt." "So I never advise people not to pay." "I tell people: "Yeah, pay your taxes."" "Look what happened to Congressman Hansen." "Congressman Hansen is a great example." "Pay your taxes, but you know what?" "Shut down the Federal Reserve System, and eventually, you won't have to pay those taxes anymore." "See, the IRS is a symptom of the problem." "The real problem is the banking industry and the bankers in this country." "That's where the real problem lies, that's the root of our problem." "That's why we've lost America, okay?" "So yeah, pay your taxes, because if you don't pay them, you make it hurt." "And I've heard all the arguments, you know." "How tax protesters say, and so on, and so forth." "And I don't call them tax protestors, I call them the Tax Honesty Movement, cause they are being honest at least." "But the fact of the matter is you're being forced, you're being compelled to pay it, because you're facing jail sentences, you're facing time, you're facing corruption of the courts if you don't pay, right?" "And so you pay it, just like you'd pay the mafia." "With the mafia, at least, you have the government to call on try and help you to get past the mafia, to protect you." "Here you have nobody to protect you." "The American people are living in a Matrix." "They don't understand the truth of how things are working in this country." "And let me give an example of what I'm talking about." "The very fact is that if you ask 100 people on the street:" ""What kind of government is America supposed to be?"" "99% of them will tell you "a democracy." "America is supposed to be a democracy."" "But that's a lie, that's an illusion." "The word "democracy" is not written into the Constitution one time, it's not in the Bill of Rights, it's not in the Declaration of Independence." "The Founding Fathers hated the idea of a democracy." "They thought it was the worst form of government there is." "And I agree with them, cause in a democracy, 51% of the people control 49% of the people." "If you are part of the 49%, you are not free." "America was founded as a constitutional republic." "And in that constitutional republic that we have, 99% of the people can't take away the rights of 1%." "You have your rights, cause you are born with them." "You have God-given human rights that nobody can take away from you - the government, the majority, no matter who they are." "I can't take away your rights." "And that's what our Founding Fathers gave us." "But the psychological operations that they do to us, they make us believe that we are a democracy, and that majority rules, you see?" "And they want you to believe that, cause then they tell you:" ""This pole says: this many want this, and this many want that, and this many want this," - it doesn't have anything to do with anything!" "Well, Hitler was elected." "Hitler was elected, Hitler did everything legally." "And in a constitutional republic, a minority is protected against the majority." "Was it Benjamin Franklin paraphrased that said:" ""Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner"?" "Exactly!" "And then he also said: "In a republic, the sheep would have a gun."" "To protect himself." "And that's the truth." "America is not a democracy." "But you ask those intelligent people what form of government America is supposed to be, they'll say "a democracy", cause that's what they've been brainwashed, they've been psy-opped into believing that." "They believe that we're in Iraq to promote democracy." "The word "democracy"..." "You hear George Bush saying:" ""Democracy, it means freedom."" "No." "Democracy equals New World Order." "Democracy equals slavery." "The word "democracy" is not synonymous with freedom, it's the opposite of freedom." "Democracy is the worst form of government you can have, cause it's a majority rule." "And the government can tell you exactly what they want to tell you to do, cause the majority wants it." "I don't care what the majority wants!" "I live my life as I choose." "And if I don't commit violence, theft or fraud against another human being, I can live my life as I wish." "That's my choice." "And I'm allowed to make mistakes." "Cause when you make mistakes, you learn from them." "You grow as human being." "We are put on this Earth to become the best individuals we can be, to fulfill our God-given potential, right?" "We are not here so the government can tell us how to live our lives and what we must do, we're put into these systems and these paradigms." "No!" "The same thing in health." "You know, "if you are sick, you have to have a certain protocol."" "Nonsense!" "Be individuals, think for yourself, have critical thinking." "And so what's happened is that because they've taught everybody that we are a democracy, which is not true, in 1913 they bring the Federal Reserve System into being." "And now they had this Federal Reserve System, which in 1913 got their right to create money for the government." "When before that, the government created its own money." "Now the government, when it needed money, had to borrow it from this private bank called the Federal Reserve." "Which is a private bank, owned by individuals, incorporated in Delaware." "What happens is now the government borrows money from them to fund the government." "Then the government says: "Well, we have to pay these people interest." "How are we gonna pay them interest?" "Let's impose a tax on the labor of the American people, which never existed before, to pay the interest to the bankers."" "In fact, in 1980, Ronald Reagan said:" ""Not one red cent of your income tax money goes to run the country, all goes to the Federal Reserve."" "Well, it was the Grace Commission Report that said that not one nickel goes to the infrastructure of the country." "But the point I'm trying to make is that by creating this Federal Reserve System, the government now became dependent on these private banks for money, and they started taxing us, you see." "Now what happens is that in '35, I believe, it was, social security started." "They gave social security cards, said:" ""Not to be used for identification."" "The social security number right on the card." "And through social security, they started deducting money out of your paycheck." "Now was the first time they were ever to take money out of your paycheck." "People agreed to, cause they thought it was going to the retirement fund." "So then, when they instituted the income tax again, they started taking money out of your paycheck, cause social security could do it." "So then they could do it again." "You see what I'm saying?" "So now they've even taken control over tax, the tax payment itself - like you're a slave, they're taking it right there when you make it." "Exactly!" "They don't even trust the public enough to go and do it themselves." "To send them a check, right." "So they take it out automatically, cause they know people aren't gonna want to pay it." "So what's happened is that through the implementation of the Federal Reserve System, the government has become vest in these bankers, and they get their money from the bankers." "Then they impose a tax on us, which makes us more slaves, makes it more difficult for us to survive, right?" "And giving them more profits." "Now what's happened is that through the Federal Reserve System, the bankers have pretty much taken control of our government." "It doesn't matter Republican or Democrat anymore, cause they're both the same." "Neither one of them are talking about shutting down the Federal Reserve System or stopping to pay them their taxes." "Or any of the big issues that face Americans." "I had a friend, Nick Rockefeller, who was one of the Rockefeller family." "When I was running for governor in Nevada, he came to me, introduced himself to me through an attorney, and we became friends, we started talking about things." "I learned an awful lot from Mr. Rockefeller." "One of the things that we used to talk about was the ultimate plan of the banking industry, what they wanted to accomplish." "And the goals of the banking industry, not just the Federal Reserve System, but the private banks in Germany, England, Italy, all over the world - they all work together." "They are all central banks." "And they were a part of the Communist Manifesto." "Central banking is one of the major planks of the Communist Manifesto." "We talk about America being a capitalistic country, but yet, at the same time, we have a central bank that plans everything for us." "And the graduated income tax is another plank of the Communist Manifesto." "So right there you have two major planks of the Communist Manifesto." "They've been brought in because of the Federal Reserve System." "The ultimate goal that these people have in mind is the goal to create a one World Government run by the banking industry, run by the bankers." "And they are doing it in sections." "The European currency, the euro, and the European Constitution is one part of it." "Now they're trying to do it in America with the North American Union." "And they want to create a new currency called the amero." "The whole agenda is to create a one World Government where everybody has an RFID chip implanted in them." "All money is to be in those chips." "There'll be no more cash." "And this is given me straight from Rockefeller himself, this is what they want to accomplish." "And all money will be in your chips." "Instead of having cash, anytime you have money in your chip, they can take out whatever they want to take out whenever they want to." "If they say you owe us this much money in taxes, they just deduct it out of your chip digitally." "Total control." "Total control." "And if you're like me or you, and you're protesting what they're doing, they can just turn off your chip, and you have nothing, you can't buy food, you can't do anything." "It's total control of the people!" "And that chip's connected to a database that has your purchasing records, what you do, what you sell." "Everything!" "Everything is in there!" "So they want a one World Government controlled by them, everybody being chipped, all the money in those chips, and they control the chips, they control people." "And you become a slave, you become a serf to these people." "That's their goal, that's their intentions." "More than a decade ago, I began getting secret government documents - and we published them - where the feds were training the local police and the military that gun owners, conservatives, people that made frequent references to the US Constitution" ""were terrorists" (that's a quote)." "But in 2009, it broke into national media when we received the secret MIAC report from a state police officer, and that was the state of Missouri, but the feds had written it, demonizing Ron Paul, people that wanted to end the Federal Reserve," "people that wanted liberty and freedom." "And now more secret reports have been released, like the Department of Homeland Security report, which the feds admit they wrote, that says returning veterans are the number one terror threat in America, that gun owners are part of that number one threat," "the people buying ammo are the number one threat." "Think about this!" "These private bankers overthrowing the United States, and they're secretly training the police that gun owners and patriots and veterans are the number one threat." "So they're saying the American people that follow the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, that will actually stand up against this tyranny, are terrorists." "Because THEY are the terrorists, THEY are the criminals coming in with the corporate takeover hijacking of the nation." "Aaron, can you be specific about when you met Rockefeller, how it happened in these discussions?" "I met Rockefeller through a female attorney I knew who called me up one day and said:" ""One of the Rockefellers would like to meet you."" "I had made a video called Mad as Hell, and he'd seen the video and wanted to meet me." "He knew I was running for governor in Nevada." "So sure I'd love to meet him." "And I met him, and I liked him, and he was a very, very smart man." "We used to talk and share ideas and thoughts." "He's the one who told me 11 months before 9/11 ever happened that there was going to be an event - never told what the event was gonna be." "But there was gonna be an event, and out of that event we are gonna invade Afghanistan to run pipelines from the Caspian Sea, we're gonna invade Iraq to take over the oil-fields, establish a base in the Middle East" "and make it all a part of the New World Order." "And we go after Chavez in Venezuela." "Sure enough, later, 9/11 happened, and I remembered he was telling me how how we gonna see soldiers looking in caves for people in Afghanistan and Pakistan and all these places." "And there's gonna be this War on Terror, of which there's no real enemy, and the whole thing is a giant hoax, you know." "But it's a way for the government to take over the American people." "He told you it was gonna be a hoax?" "Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah!" "There's no question!" "He says, "There's gonna be War on Terror," and he's laughing." "There's no..." "Who are we fighting?" "I mean, why do you think 9/11 happened, and then nothing's happened since then?" "Do you think that our security is so great here that these people who pulled off 9/11, who were able..., can't knock down another plane?" "Come on!" "It's ridiculous!" "9/11 was done by people in our own government, our own banking system, to perpetuate the fear of the American people into subordinating themselves into anything the government wants them to do." "That what it's about." "And to create this endless War on Terror." "That was the first lie." "The next lie was to go into Iraq to get Saddam Hussein out with his weapons of mass destruction." "That was the next lie." "Now specifically, this was a little over 6 years ago?" "This was..." "11 months before 9/11?" "Yeah." "And Nick Rockefeller, he's a lawyer, he is kind of your friend over the previous years, and he's saying to you that there's gonna be this big event, and that out of that we're gonna have a War on Terror" "that just gonna go on and on?" "Right." "An endless War on Terror without any real enemy." "So you can never define a winner." "And did he say that it's gonna be perfect, cause you can't define enemy, it just goes on and on?" "Yeah, cause you can't define a winner." "There's no one whom we're going to beat, so it goes on and on forever." "And they can do whatever they want." "They scare the hell out of the American public." "Look!" "This whole War on Terror is a fraud!" "It's a farce!" "It's very difficult to say it out loud, cause people are intimidated against saying it." "Because if you say it, they wanna make you into a nutcase." "But the truth has to be, the truth has to come out." "That's why I'm doing this interview." "The fact of the matter happens to be that the whole War on Terror is a fraud, it's a farce." "Yeah, there's a war going on in Iraq, cause we invaded Iraq, and people are over there fighting." "But the War on Terror - it's a joke!" "And until we discover what really happened on 9/11 and who was responsible for 9/11, cause that's where the War on Terror emanates from, that's where it comes from." "It was 9/11 that allowed this War on Terror to begin." "And until we get to the bottom root of 9/11, the truth of 9/11, we'll never know about the War on Terror." "Aaron, you said that he was, and I think it's important, and I know this about the Rockefellers." "You'll be 20 years old in a launch line out of college, and moves in a Rockefeller to recruit me." "They're experts at recruiting and getting what they call "players,"" "and clearly he was..." "I wanna make it specific and just get you to reiterate what you said last night about you got 30% of the vote, you were having an effect, you've made Mad as Hell, they knew that you'd started the Constitution Party." "They knew that you were somebody who was taking action and getting things done." "You've already made some big films, had lot of other successes." "Right." "So they were trying to recruit you." "And didn't it come down to the point of" ""Hey, we are here to recruit you, and don't worry, your chip is gonna say:" "'Don't mess with us." "This guy is Don't Touch'"?" "Yes, that did happen." "I was definitely being recruited." "But it's more subtle than that." "Just go through the process." "Well, what it is..." "Remember we were friends, and we used to go to my house a lot, we had dinner, we talked." "And he'd tell me about business investments I'd get involved in." "Or they would help me with this business investment or that business investment." "And was I interested in joining the Council on Foreign Relations?" "I would have to get a letter to join them." "Was I interested in that?" "And, you know, just ...stuff." "Leading you on." "And I used to say to him I never really did that, because that was where I was coming from." ""As much as I like you, Nick, your ways and my ways were on the opposite side of the fence." "I don't believe in enslaving people."" "And he would come back: "With all I do?" "It's better for them."" "It was more like..." "How do I put it?" "It was like:" ""What do you care about them?" "What do you care about those people?" "What difference does it make to you?" "Take care of your own life." "Do the best you can for you and your family." "What does the rest of the people mean to you?" "They don't mean anything to you." "They're just serfs, they're just people."" "It was just a lack of caring." "And that's just not who I was." "It was just sort of like cold." "It was just like cold." "I used to say to him:" ""What's the point of all this?" "You have all the money in the world you need." "You have all the power you need." "What's the point?" "What's the end goal?"" "And he said: "The end goal is to get everybody chipped to control the whole society." "To have the bankers, the elite people - the bankers and some governors - controlling the world."" "And I said:" ""Do all the people in the Council on Foreign Relations wanna do what you do?"" "No, no, no!" "Most of them believe they're doing the right thing." "A lot of them believe it's better off being socialistic." "We have to convince people that socialism is really capitalism." "Cause America's becoming a socialist country, it's a communist country today." "And here we are years later after Aaron Russo points out this is not a capitalist or free market country, but it's really socialist." "In fact, here's the cover of Newsweek:" ""We are all socialists now."" "But this isn't the socialism the public thinks it is where the government robs from the rich to give to the poor." "Actually, it's always the big banks, the elites throughout history that fund socialism." "They wanna use the middle class's money to basically domesticate the working class and expand the size of government, so they can basically in the endgame eradicate the middle class and have a giant submass of uneducated slaves who have no chance of ever rebelling against the tyranny," "and a tiny elite in control of it all." "And that is the very nature of this New World Order system." "They are using Big Government to strangle competition, to take control of the people, to break up the family." "To basically set up a global plantation, or neofeudalist state." "One of the things he told me was..." "We were at the house one night, we were talking, and he started laughing and said:" ""Aaron, what do you think Women's Liberation was about?"" "I said..." "I had pretty conventional thinking about that at that point." "I said the things about women having the right to work getting equal pay with men, just like having the right to vote." "And he started to laugh and said: "You're an idiot."" "And I said:" ""Why am I an idiot?"" "He said: "Let me tell you what that was about." "We the Rockefellers funded that, we funded Women's Lib, you know." "And we're the ones who got all over the newspapers and television - the Rockefeller Foundation."" "He says: "You wanna know why?" He said there were two primary reasons." "And they were - one reason was:" "we couldn't tax half of the population before Women's Lib." "And the second reason was: now we get the kids in school at an early age, we can indoctrinate the kids how to think, cause this breaks up their family." "The kids start looking at the State as the family, at the school, at the officials as their family, not as the parents teaching them." "Those are the two primary reasons for Women's Lib, which, I thought up to that point, was a noble thing." "When I saw their intentions behind it, where they were coming from when they created it, the thought of it " "I saw the evil behind what I thought was a noble venture." "Aaron, did you know that Gloria Steinem in one of her own books now admits the CIA funded Ms. Magazine?" "No, I had no idea about that." "No, I never heard that." "CIA funded Ms. Magazine?" "Funded Ms. Magazine with the stated goal of taxing women and breaking up the family." "No kidding?" "I never heard that." "Well, Nick told me." "I mean, I know it, but not because I know the CIA was involved in it." "Gloria Steinem was proud of it." "All the CIA wanted was to "help me help women"." "No kidding?" "So they funded it." "Yeah." "And of course, it's divide and conquer." "Right!" "Of course!" "What they do is they focus in obviously on real problems:" "women were getting shafted in many ways." "But the elite didn't want to help them, they were planning to really shaft them and take men away from them." "Look at what they did with black families." "We only had about 10% illegitimacy 50 years ago in black communities, and now it's over 90%." "And look at welfare." ""We are gonna give you some money, but you can't have a man in the house."" "Right." "So that was further to degrade the family." "Totally destroyed, and now illegitimacies over 50% in the general population." "Right." "Well, you see, the whole thing is these people control the money, so they make all the rules." "And they put every rule they want into a fact." "And the truth is America has really become a socialist, communistic country." "Everybody says it's a capitalistic country." "It's not a capitalistic country." "How can it be capitalistic when you have a central bank?" "It can't be!" "It's a planned economy!" "It's a planned economy, it's a phoney!" "If they want to create prosperity, they just print dollars, they just make dollars or put digits into the economy." "And now you have prosperity." "You don't have real prosperity, you don't have real manufacturing." "You just have money being injected in, it's an infusion of credit." "Which only makes the government go into more debt." "Into more debt." "The Federal Reserve is poison to our country." "Of course, it is." "It's poison." ""Whoever makes the money, makes the rules." Rothschild said that." "And they make the money." "Why we allow these private bankers to make the money for our country?" "It makes no sense!" "Why are we paying interest to these banks to make money for us when the government can do it itself without paying interest and without all that debt?" "There's no answer to that question." "And that's the question no politician will raise." "Everybody talks about America's debt, how much debt we're in." "We're in debt, because we have to borrow money." "But we don't have to borrow money." "They designed it so we go into debt." "Exactly!" "We can create the money and back it by gold, so they can't create too much of it." "So you don't have the inflation." "And do what the Founding Fathers gave us." "But instead, the bankers make the money, they control the government, they buy the politicians, they tell us who gets into office." "You have computer voting, that's a fraud." "They do whatever they wanna do to us." "They do whatever they wanna do to us." "And that has to stop." "My friendship with Nick Rockefeller was one way we expressed ideas to each other and thoughts and philosophies." "And he wanted me to become part of what they were doing, and for me to become a member of the CFR, and offered various business opportunities for me to get involved in, and for me to not take up to fight the battle" "that I've been taking up in the past." "They dropped that idea because what was the point of my fighting for the people?" "I was a guy who was very successful in the movie business." "I saw the truth of what was happening, I tried to express it to the people." "And rather than having me express it to the people, they wanted me to join their side, cause I was a mover and a shaker, and rather than me opposing them, to join them." "It was real simple." "And he tried to recruit me into that situation, and I didn't go for it." "Did he get angry when you didn't go for it?" "No, no." "I remember one time he said to me," ""You join us, so you have an ID card, Aaron, you have a chip." "And your chip will say 'KMA' on it."" "So what does KMA mean?" "He said, "It means 'Kiss My Ass.'" "Anybody stops you, a cop, whatever, and you show them your card or your chip, they'll know to leave you alone, cause you're one of us."" "One of the central pillars of tyranny is that the establishment is exempt from the laws that they pass for the rest of us." "We saw it in Rome, we saw it with Hitler." "We saw Richard Nixon saying," ""Look, I'm the President." "If I break the law, it's not illegal."" "We saw George Bush and Dick Cheney say that." "We see Barack Obama continuing that, saying," ""I'm not gonna give detainees real trials." "I'm gonna give them secret kangaroo military commission's trials, and we gonna hold them in secret camps, and I've got executive privilege."" "It's the same thing over and over again." "And one example of hundreds that are out there was a story back in April, 2008 of the Orange County Register." "This backs up exactly what Aaron is talking about with Mr. Rockefeller saying: "I've got a chip in my hand - 'Kiss my ass.'"" "Here's just one example of hundreds." "Special license plates shield officials from traffic tickets." "And it goes on to say that 996 000 plus vehicles in California are exempt from no insurance, reckless driving, speeding, running through toll booths, running red lights, on and on and on." "And who is it?" "It's state employees, it's federal employees that can go and get exempt, it's police, it's government bureaucrats above the very laws they try to enforce on us." "This is tyranny." "And so literally, all of the nation." "They've tried to pass it in Texas, but failed." "They wanted where the police are above the law, where the government officials are above the law." "Where they have immunity, where they can't be prosecuted for crimes." "Congress exempts itself from most of the tax laws and other laws that they put on the rest of us." "They're exempt from social security." "And they get a pension that pays out, on average, 5 times what citizens get." "Again, it's already happening." "So the chip in the hand and saying: "They're above the law," under the guise of national security - that's what the 1947 National Security Act and now this whole Homeland Security system is all about." ""Why are you fighting for the people for?" "What is that about?" "The people just... you know, they have to be ruled." "They have to be..." "The Constitution, what you're standing for, is only for a few people, it's only a few individuals that can live that way." "And we believe that it's best for society to be ruled by elite people who control everything."" "And I said:" ""I don't believe that." "I believe God put me on this Earth to be the best person I could be and put everybody on this Earth to be the best they can be." "Not to be a slave and a sheep to you and these people." "And I don't understand why you wanna control everything." "What is the need for that?"" "And I asked him: "Do all the people in the Council on Foreign Relations feel the same way you feel?"" "He said: "No, a lot of them think they're doing the right thing." "They think that socialism is the best way to go." "They think that they're doing the right thing." "But the people atop, they all know the truth of what's happening, and that's what it is."" "So, it's compartmentalized within the elite structure as well." "Of course, it is." "I mean, all the people that are in the CFR - what are there, 2,000-3,000 people, I figure - they don't know what's going on." "They just join the CFR, because it's prestigious." "They think it's good for business, it's good for this." "They don't know what's really happening, the evil that comes out of it, that's emanating out of it." "To me, the biggest evil is what's happening right now." "Because what happened on 9/11 is a phoney, and we've never learned the truth about 9/11." "That's the question I wanted to follow up on." "He told you 11 months before there's gonna be an event, all this is gonna happen." "What did you think on the morning of 9/11?" "Where were you and did you think about Nick Rockefeller and what he had told you when you saw those towers fall?" "I was actually in Tahiti when 9/11 happened." "I got a call from my son." "My son said: "The twin towers, they were just attacked and they were fallen down or something." I was in Tahiti, I was asleep." "He says they were hit by a plane, tadada." "Where I was in Tahiti there was no television, so I had to run round the other side of the island to hotel where they had, and it was all on television." "And that's when I first saw the stuff on TV about it." "I didn't immediately equate to Nick." "But when I realized that we were gonna go to Afghanistan, Iraq - as that developed - I realized what it was." "How could there be a War on Terror and actually say that we're having a war against terrorism, and leave the borders wide open?" "If you were the President of the United States or I were the President of the United States, and 9/11 really happened the way they want us to believe it happened, the first thing you would do is shut down the borders," "so people couldn't get in the country to harm you." "But they left the borders wide open, cause the bankers want the borders open, cause they want a one World Government." "They want the North American Union, they don't want borders here." "9/11 was only a manifestation, it was done to create fear in the American public." "So that then we will obey what they want us to do." "Take Richard Reid, the Shoe Bomber." "Here's a guy who's 6 ft 6, ugly as could be, I heard he smelled, okay?" "He sits in coach on a plane, lighting matches to put a shoe on fire, surrounded by people." "It's idiotic!" "If you were gonna blow a plane, you go into the bathroom, you close the door, and you put your shoe on fire." "You're not gonna sit there surrounded by people, lighting matches on a non-smoking flight." "They want you to believe this nonsense." "It's ridiculous!" "7/7's come on now, and the majority of various people think it's an inside job, and all the evidence points towards it being an inside job." "You mean what happened in England, London?" "Yes." "All this is nonsense." "It's this "keep people in fear", it's this endless war on terrorism that doesn't really exist, so people would be submit to whatever the government wants to submit them to - searches, check your shoes, have ID cards, put chips in you." "Where you become servants to the elite." "That's what this is all about." "Restore America's Republic to what it's supposed to be, get the bankers out of our government." "Get the bankers out of our government, government to stop borrowing money from the banks." "Government should make its own money, restore the Republic, individual freedoms." "That's what this country is about." "And until we do that, we're gonna be slaves." "I mean, to me..." "I see..." "I see people like Bill O'Reilly on television." "And I see how much they control the media." "Like there was this girl on Bill O'Reilly the other night from an organization saying:" "The World Can't Wait." "And this girl was spot-on." "Everything she was saying was the truth." "And all Bill O'Reilly could do was call her a lunatic." "He couldn't challenge the facts." "They just call people names." "Look!" "We're heading into a world of danger, possible nuclear wars, because the banking industry is trying to take over the world." "9/11 is the beginning of the War on Terror." "The War on Terror is leading us into Iraq, which is the next lie." "So you had a lie of 9/11, how that happened." "Nobody knows how Building 7 came down." "We know 9/11 was a fraud." "The American people don't know it, but more and more of them are believing it, okay?" "So that was the first lie." "I'm not going back to the inception of the Federal Reserve, that original lie." "But 9/11 was the first lie in this present state we're in." "9/11 is the kickoff of the War against the American people, and the people of the world." "9/11 was a phoney, it's a fraud!" "It didn't happen the way they told us it happened." "Now, because of 9/11, we then had the authority to go into Afghanistan and Iraq." "Iraq didn't have weapons of mass destruction, okay?" "So that was the next lie." "Now they might go into Iran." "Now how would you feel if you were Iran and you had this big powerful country America go into your next-door neighbor, take over, take over their oil fields?" "Wouldn't you be worried they were gonna do it to you?" "Of course, you're gonna be worried." "But the people of America don't think about it from Iran's point of view." "They think about it from our point of view." "So now we gonna send more troops into Iraq and keep building up, because they want Iraq and the Middle East to become part of the New World Order." "And Iraq was using, Saddam wanted to start using euros instead of dollars." "He was messing up their whole conception." "Iran wants to start using euros instead of dollars." "They already have." "Okay?" "So I'm saying what they're trying to do is preserve their power, and one lie leads to the next lie, leads to the next lie." "Until you get to the root cause of 9/11, which is supposedly the War on Terror, we'll never solve our problems here." "Shall we send more troops into Iraq?" "Shall we not send more troops into Iraq?" "Well, the truth is, the fact is that all goes back to this War on Terror." "Where did 9/11 come from?" "That's the root cause of everything." "And until we have a full investigation, find out why Building 7 fell down, why they shipped all the steel out of America so quickly, you know, from the buildings." "Why all the things don't make any sense about 9/11." "Until we find out why it really happened, we'll never understand why there's a War on Terror, and we'll never be able to prove the War on Terror is a phoney." "Nick and I discussed many things." "One of the things we discussed, what he brought up in conversation, was reducing world population, and felt that there were too many people in the world." "In a way, I agree, there are too many people in the world." "But I don't think I have the authority to say who's gonna die and who's not gonna die." "But they felt that they wanted to reduce world population." "And he felt it should be reduced by a half." "He did mention to me once they were having a real problem trying to solve the Israel-Palestinian problem." "And he talked to me once about they were playing with the idea of bringing Israel to Arizona and taking all the people from Israel and giving them about a million dollars." "And setting up Israel in the state of Arizona." "Unbelievable!" "To end that problem, cause that's a problem that they're not in charge of, in a sense, they're not controlling that problem." "They are very arrogant, they can do whatever they wanna do." "We've given these people the authority to create money out of thin air." "Through that device they control everything." "If you wanna win the battle to stop that, you have to deny them the ability to create money." "It's only cause they can make money that they have all this power." "They literally got the money machines." "They have the money machines, they can print..." "They can do whatever they wanna do." "They own everything." "Aaron, we'd take over pretty quick if we were the guys that issued the money and everybody had to come give us real assets for the use of this money we'd just printed out." "I tell people:" ""Why in the world does the American government borrow money from the banks when they have the ability to create it themselves without borrowing it and paying interest on it?" "Why?"" "And nobody can answer that question." "Not one politician ever raises that." "Why does the American government borrow money when they can create it without paying interest?" "Well, we did create it up until 1913." "So people say: "Well, because if the American government does it, it will create inflation." "That's the answer."" "I say: "Well, let's look at it." "The American government has the Federal Reserve do it, which creates the same inflation as if they did it." "But also with the inflation, now they're getting massive debt." "So with the Federal Reserve you have inflation AND debt." "Now if the American government made the money backed by gold, which limits the amount they can make, you wouldn't have debt and you wouldn't have inflation."" "But inflation was only about 50% from the 1780s " "I've looked it up - until the late 1800s." "And then we have the central banks already trying to cause some panics, which they then used to push the Federal Reserve." "And if we look at inflation since 1913 in 2007, it's exponential." "In fact, a dollar is worth about 2 pennies of what it was worth in 1913." "Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan doubled the money supply from 2000 to 2006." "And then Ben Bernanke, the new Fed Chief, came in and said he would double it again in the next two years." "Then he said: "Now I'm gonna make the money supply numbers secret."" "So now we don't even know, but the evidence is they are just..." "I mean, in the curve of inflation, it gradually grows, and then, suddenly, at a point, it goes straight up." "It's parabolic, yeah." "Yeah, parabolic." "The only thing I disagree with you on - from early 1800 to 1913 there was no inflation other than during the Civil War when Lincoln was printing..." "How much a dollar was worth?" "It never changed, there was no inflation." "In that whole hundred years, there was no inflation." "People knew what their money was worth, they could retire, they knew what it would cost them to live their lives out." "There was no problem." "It was only since 1913 when the Fed came in, they created a massive inflation and massive debt." "So that when you said earlier, then there really wasn't inflation." "There was no inflation." "So you don't get inflation when the government issues the money, at least in the US history." "None of it's backed by gold." "Exactly." "But I'm talking about, and I did look this up, and I believe that if you look after the country was set up, some of the things got with Andrew Jackson and the rest of it," "there were points it would spike and then manipulations..." "There were points, mostly during the Civil War." "Yeah, that's because Lincoln printed so much money." "Exactly, exactly, that's right." "But once that end..." "Basically, there was no inflation other than during that short period of time." "I mean, a loaf of bread cost the same thing." "People could plan their lives." "Today they've planned inflation." "Now you have two parents working, they can't afford to pay for their family anymore, the kids are going to the state-run schools now, the kids are being indoctrinated how to think, they're being given Ritalin, they're being given all these drugs," "the whole country's being dumbed down." "It's all because of the Federal Reserve System." "And the Federal Reserve System and these bankers are responsible for the demise of America." "If we ever wanna win this battle, you must shut down the Federal Reserve System." "And we must shut down these bankers and restore sound money to this country." "Will you talk a little bit about some of the families that own the private Federal Reserve, the stock in it?" "I mean, obviously, you say you're not a big expert on Bilderberg Group, but you told me how it's the same system worldwide." "It IS the same families." "They meet and concept the policy each year, and then it goes to the Royal Institute of International Affairs in England, it goes to the CFR in the US." "And then these are the management bodies where they wield control, really the de facto Congresses over the nation." "So I would like you to speak some about the families that own the Federal Reserve." "And then you can connect it into these other international bodies..." "I can't speak about those families, because I can only speak about what I know for fact." "Everything else is speculation, and I don't like to speculate." "I know about Rockefeller, cause I was friends with him, we talked about it, and I can sell you firsthand." "What did Rockefeller tell you about the Federal Reserve and the family owning board of it?" "Well, he said the New York Fed is the main controlling interest of the Federal Reserve System." "They control the block of it, and the New York Fed is really the Federal Reserve System, even though there's 12 different banks, it's run by the New York Fed." "And the New York Fed is basically the Federal Reserve System." "So whoever's running the New York Fed, and the families that control it control the New York Fed." "They are the main engine behind the Federal Reserve System." "And that's a wing of the Bank of England." "Well, the Bank of England and the Federal Reserve are partners." "And the Bank of England is a private bank." "And so is the Bundesbank in Germany." "All the banks of the G8 countries are all private banks, they're private central banks." "Look!" "What happened in Europe:" "didn't Europe vote down the European Constitution?" "Yes." "They're still doing it." "Didn't they vote down?" "They're still doing it." "They don't care what the people vote." "They do whatever they wanna do." "What we want doesn't matter anymore." "It's their agenda, it's their plans that matter." "Isn't that prima facie evidence of a tyranny?" "There's no question we're in tyranny." "There's no question we're living in a world where the American citizen is no longer a free individual human being to do the things that they wish to do." "We're slaves!" "And it's getting worse!" "What do we gotta do to bring these people down?" "In my opinion, you must shut down the Federal Reserve System." "And I think that there has to be an uprising." "There has to be an uprising." "People have to stand up." "I can't do it alone." "You can't do it alone, Alex." "And we need to get a majority of people... not a majority of people, but..." "It was 5% who won the war against the British, a highly motivated group." "But I agree, people've gotta get angry first." "I mean, not just "Yeah, yeah, we know it's corrupt." We gotta get pissed." "People don't seem to have the courage to do what they have to do." "I wanna say you've got a lot of courage." "Oh, thank you." "You know, I don't know if I have a lot of courage, I just have a..." "I wanna thank you for doing it for my family." "I have a sense of conscience, and I have a sense of justice." "I get nervous about what I do, but I do it, because there's no other choice." "I couldn't live with myself if I didn't do it." "But the fact of the matter is, I mean," "I've ostracized myself pretty much from Hollywood." "People are afraid to deal with me in Hollywood a lot because of what I do and the things I say." "I don't go along with routines." "A lot of people in Hollywood know the truth." "They don't want to stand up and speak about it." "I know many of them have seen my movie, and they know I'm right." "And they won't talk about it, cause everybody's afraid." "Everybody's afraid, because they think that this money they get, these Federal Reserve notes, are really money." "And they think they have a comfortable lifestyle, and they are afraid to change." "They are afraid to stand up for what's right." "And until people are witnessed to stand up and have the courage to do what they need to do, it's not gonna change." "Hopefully, what you are doing, what I'm doing, what other people like us are doing could effect the change that people stand up and say: "Hey, I've had enough."" "The thing is we have one advantage." "They need us to cooperate." "So if we don't cooperate with them, they can't win." "And so they always need our cooperation to go along with their programs." "They try to sell us." "Right." "They try to sell us:" "democracy, this majority says this, believe in this, do this, do that." "The War on Terror." "We gotta be scared." "They're always trying to do things to sell us, so we go along with them." "And once we learn not to cooperate with them, then we win the game." "And that's the point." "Don't cooperate with them." "Don't go along with the Program anymore." "Stop it." "Join forces." "You and I showing for President and Vice President and take over this country." "And bring freedom back to this country." "That's what it takes." "Two people like you and I, statesmen, who believe in freedom, who believe in Thomas Jefferson, and the Constitution, and the Founding Fathers to make this country whole again." "Because right now it's in the grip of the evil ones." "And the only way to stop that is for good men to stand up." "Was it Edmund Burke who said: "Evil can only thrive when good men do nothing"?" "Yes." "Right?" "We gotta do something, that's what it is." "Silence is golden, but when it comes to your freedom, it's yellow." "We have to stop being scared, we have to stand up and do what's necessary to take back, to stop these bankers, this elite, this government full of lies, congressmen, full of liars." "Take destroying our borders." "Imagine this!" "Here you are in America, and they are combining America, Canada and Mexico into one country - the North American Union." "And the American people don't know anything about it." "It's not even in the press." "It's rather to be Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump calling each other names than discussing the fact they were merging into one country." "The press doesn't even report it." "Or that Paris Hilton doesn't wear underwear." "Yeah, Britney Spears." "But I mean, who cares?" "The fact of the matter happens to be - that tells you how controlled the media is." "Here you are combining America, Canada and Mexico into one country, and you don't see it in the press." "Unless maybe it's Lou Dobbs." "You don't see it in the press." "You just don't see it." "Which means the top screw everywhere." "Everywhere." "And not worried about it really." "Why?" "That tells you there's the evidence that it's controlled." "They don't want the American people to know what's going on." "That's why they don't protect our borders." "That's why we're losing our Constitution, the very document that secures our freedoms." "There is a rising tide against it." "There is a rising tide, but we have to mobilize, we have to mobilize." "And we have to - all the good people of this country to stand together and say:" ""I'm not gonna take it anymore."" "I think if you analyze the situation and if you realize that since the Federal Reserve has came into being in 1913, illegally, without a Constitutional Amendment, by bribing a few senators during Christmas vacation, they turned over the most important power that the American government has " "the creation, issuance of money - to a private bank." "To that private bank issuing money - they have destroyed this country." "They have destroyed the purchasing power of the money in this country." "They have created social programs." "They are destroying this country." "Thanks to the work of Aaron Russo and Ron Paul and many others, folks are starting to find out who the real enemy is." "Offshore private banking corporations that have engaged in a hostile corporate takeover of the United States and almost every other nation on the planet." "And the private Federal Reserve is their beachhead here in the United States." "Ron Paul has introduced HR 1207 that at time of taping has over 87 sponsors just to audit the private Federal Reserve that arrogantly says it's above all US laws and above all 3 branches of government." "And that no law enforcement can investigate them." "I mean, how asinine is that?" "How above the law is that?" "How ridiculous is that?" "Everybody else gets audited." "Nobody else is above the law, but them, this group of plutocrats, this group of polycentric bankers that are setting up this Neofeudal World System." "Now, they've taken over our government, both Republicans and Democrats, there's no difference anymore between the two parties." "They control both parties." "It doesn't matter to them which one wins, cause whoever's running for President will be someone they anoint." "Whether it's Hilary Clinton or John McCain running for President next year." "They're gonna be people that gonna do what they want them to do." "And the fact of the matter happens to be that you can't win an election unless you have enough money to win." "They make sure who gets the money." "The most important point is they control both parties." "And the public continues to only focus in on the distraction of the left puppet and the right puppet instead of looking at the puppet masters." "In fact, more and more of this is coming out." "Top Senate Democrats:" ""Bankers own the US Congress."" "Senator Dick Durbin on Chicago radio station last week blurted out an obvious truth about Congress - this is from Salon - that despite being blandly obvious, it is rarely spoken." "And quote: "The banks, hard to believe, in a time when we're facing a banking crisis that many of the banks created, are still the most powerful lobby on Capitol Hill, and frankly, they own the place."" "So there is one of the most powerful Democrats in the country, top Senate Democrat saying:" ""Bankers own the US Congress."" "It's true, let's admit it." "Let's stop debating the two puppets they put out in front of us - the liberal puppet, the conservative puppet." "And then every time we wake up to one of the puppets, they just replace it with another puppet." "Let's look past the puppets to the puppet master above them that's controlling the puppets." "That's all Aaron Russo, and myself, and Ron Paul, and so many other people are saying." "Let's get back to a culture of Liberty vs. Tyranny, not this Left-Right diversion." "Folks are sick of Obama in 4 years, they gonna put a Republican in, and they'll put out different rhetoric, but carry out the same operation, because as the top Senate Democrat said:" ""The bankers own the place, even though they engineered the crisis."" "And make no mistake - they did engineer it by design." "Their own documents, their own IMF and World Bank documents admit that." "And out of this crisis they're setting up the new Bank of the World according to Time Magazine and Newsweek and the Wall Street Journal and just hundreds of publications, with headlines like" ""And now for a world government" in the Financial Times of London." "They create the crisis and then say:" ""Okay, our pansy schemes falling apart and bankrupting you." "Give us $12.8 trillion in the first six months of the banker bail-out."" "And now they say: "We'll set up a Bank of the World you pay your carbon taxes to."" "And private bankers will rule your life." "And we'll pay private greenhouse gas carbon taxes to two firms owned by Al Gore." "And this is publically admitted!" "I mean, this is how bad the scheming is getting." "And we've gotta wake up, we've gotta say "No", we've gotta get angry and get in the face of the New World Order." "Again, the private offshore bankers own America!" "They own both parties!" "But they get you in a rah-rah Coke vs. Pepsi," "Redskins vs. Cowboys, you know, fight." "And you get in this little political fight as followers instead of looking past that to the actual global elite and what they're setting up." "So through that, through these bankers taking over America - knowing that America was the freest nation in the world, it was necessary for them to take over America, to take away our gun rights, freedom to bear arms and create a country where we become slaves." "Cause once they took over America, the rest of the world becomes a lot easier for them." "By creating 9/11, an event to terrify the American people - they were being attacked by terrorists - you create a world with an enemy that can never be pinpointed." "You can never win the battle." "It's a 100 Year War." "Never end the War on Terrorism." "So you're always fighting this war." "And to the 9/11, which is the first lie, then you create the War on Terrorism, which is the next lie." "Then you create the War in Iraq for weapons of mass destruction, which is the next lie." "And to one lie, to the next lie, to the next lie." "Now it's gonna be Iran, the next lie: setting more troops and insurgents into Iraq." "Think about what Aaron Russo was saying here." "The War on Terror is a War on the American people and the people of the world." "You see, the elites always sell the public on tyranny by attacking a minority that's unliked first or the outsider." ""Oh, we're just getting rid of the Bill of Rights and Constitution, having secret arrest and FEMA camps and the Military Commissions Act for foreigners, it's just for them."" "And now the federal government has been caught saying that gun owners, conservatives, people buying ammunition;" "they've been caught saying that returning veterans are the number one threat to homeland security." "And in a way, that's true." "People that know about the Bill of Rights and Constitution and know that our country's being taken over and hijacked by foreign banks," "I guess, they are the threat to the criminals that have done this." "That's all the New World Order is." "Is a private corporate takeover of the nation states, of the governments of the world." "Then these private corporations bring in a tyrannical form of neofeudalism that they call corporatism, or fascism." "Mussolini said that fascism should properly be called corporatism, and that's what it is." "And they create the socialism to get control of the wealth and to control society." "And then they pipe the profits to themselves, so they socialize the general public to get control of us, but it's private above us." "It's basically just slavery." "Now, think about what Aaron Russo was saying here, and it's absolutely true." "This is a War on the American people." "They build Homeland Security, they build the police state in the name of fighting foreign enemies." "And then they flip it all around to use it against the American people in the MIAC reports and the DHS reports and the rest of it." "This whole thing was set up for the people." "And Aaron Russo nailed it." "It's just one thing leading to the other." "It's always in the point of taking over more countries, more dominants." "Making sure the American dollar, making sure the G8 stays in control of everything." "And what they want to do is to control the American people, control the people of the world, put RFID chips in everybody, so everybody's a slave to these central banks." "Did you ever talk to Nick Rockefeller after he told you all this and the 9/11 took place?" "No." "No." "No." "But I tell you he told me you're gonna see men running around caves looking for Osama bin Laden." "You're gonna see men looking for these guys." "He told you it was all to be bull?" "It's a phoney!" "The whole thing is a fake, it's a fraud!" "Was he laughing or was he just coldly saying this?" "No, it was more laughing." "Cynical." "Laughing, you know." "It's more like:" ""How stupid everybody is!" "How stupid everybody!" "We can do whatever we wanna do!"" "Well, it is ridiculous, it's like with al-Zarqawi." "They claim they killed him like 14 times." "And then they never said:" ""Well, we didn't kill him last time, but we killed him this time."" "Now they're like practicing being ridiculous." "Well, what about bin Laden being in the American Hospital, getting kidney help?" "Right?" "In the American Hospital." "If they wanted Osama bin Laden, they could have gotten him." "He was right in the American Hospital." "After the call!" "Every time our troops really were catching Taliban leaders, they would be ordered by the generals to let them go." "That's come out in the newspapers here or there." "Pat Tillman was complaining about it." "I talked to his brother." "Oh, you did?" "Then he got shot and then was a big hero charging al-Qaeda." "No al-Qaeda, somebody just shot him in the back." "Look, we're dealing with complete evil." "Until the American people wake up and say," ""We don't want this evil in our country anymore." "I want to come back to a country of decency, and goodness, and integrity, and honor,"" "we're going down that road." "And that's what it's gonna take." "It's gonna take people stand and say:" ""We don't wanna live in this kind of a world anymore."" "I believe we should pull all our troops out of Iraq." "I believe we should leave other countries alone." "Let other countries live their lives where they choose to." "Stop trying to spread democracy around the world - which is the worst form of government there is anyway." "Restore our Republic to what it's supposed to be." "And go back to what the Founding Fathers gave us." "And trying to restore that, restore the Republic." "Look, the point of everything is that we have to mobilize, each one of us." "You and I can't do everything, Alex." "You and I may be leaders." "We may be out there, and people would listen to us, what we have to say, and follow us." "But the truth of the matter happens to be, it takes all Americans to stand together, to stand tall, to mobilize and say: "We're not gonna take this anymore." "I'm mad as hell, I'm not gonna take it anymore." "Want to stand up and fight the battle." You and I can't do this alone." "We're just leaders of the thing, but other people have to join in with us and, staying side by side, shoulder to shoulder, say:" ""I'm not gonna take it anymore."" "That's what it's gonna take to win this effort." "And to stop cooperating with the government and with all their rules and regulations." "And to wake everybody up." "To hand out DVDs of my movie, to hand out DVDs of your movie, to educate everybody to what's going on." "If you don't fight the corruption and you don't stand up for what's right in life, you could end up being a serf and a slave, and you're leaving your children a world that you wouldn't wanna live in yourself." "So how can you, in decency, behave that way?" "You have to stand up for what's right in life." "Unless you do that, you are nothing." "Well, freedom and liberty is what people really want." "And it's time to stop the duplicity of the government from lying to us." "You see, many people know the truth of what's happening in this country." "They know the truth like the numbers you gave about 9/11." "But they are afraid to stand up." "People have to find their courage, and stand up, and say:" ""I'm not gonna take this anymore." "I know the truth."" "It's like they create a situation where, if you tell the truth, you're considered a lunatic." "In other words, if someone goes on a TV show and says:" ""9/11's an inside job." "Oh, you're an idiot, you're crazy!"" "They call you names." "You can't be afraid of that." "They have no facts." "Just calling you crazy doesn't make you crazy." "Oh, we know that." "They also go get kooks who ARE kooks to put them on and then say they represent us." "That's right." "Exactly." "Another tactic." "Exactly." "Exactly." "And Bill O'Reilly is great at that." "Sean Hannity is great at that." "They just put people on who they can dominate." "Why do you think guys like that?" "They're not stupid." "They know the truth." "Why do you think they decided to join the evil?" "It has to be in their hearts." "I mean, I had the opportunity to do that, and in my heart, I couldn't do it." "I mean, how could you or I consciously be involved in something like putting AIDS virus in black Africans' vaccines?" "I mean, what the hell?" "It's like, we're not good guys either." "I mean, I don't think I'm like some special perfect person." "But what the hell's wrong with this elite?" "Why are they running around doing evil?" "They just run around continually doing evil." "I think a lot of them think they're doing the right thing." "Not the top elite, but people within the system." "But I think that it's all about, as Nick said to me, it's about control and power." "They have all the money they want, they can make all the money they want." "They have a machine, they can make all the money." "It's not about money." "It's about control, it's about their vision of how they wanna see the world in their eyes." "You and I believe in individuality, in the person being the dominant thing, the individual being the dominant person." "Today we live in a world where institutions are dominant, not people." "American "we the people, by the people, for the people,"" "now it's "we the institutions, by the institutions, for the institutions."" "People are secondary." "It's all about corporations and institutions." "And the Federal Reserve is the biggest institution in the world." "If you asked somebody, "What's the biggest corporation in the world?"" "they'll say: "Google, or Walmart, or Exxon or something."" "But the biggest corporation in the world is the Federal Reserve System." "And all the other corporations feed off the nipple of the Federal Reserve System." "Well, it's like the Monopoly game." "The bank always wins, it has unlimited money." "It's not the people playing on the board." "Exactly!" "The bank owns the board, the box, the shelf it's sitting on." "Right." "But that's cause you gave them the ability to make the money." "You have to take that away from them." "Need to take the bank away from the private bankers." "Exactly." "You have to take the creation of money away from the private bankers, and you'll solve 95% of your problems." "Well, I mean, look at America." "10% growth rates every year like China's having right now." "The US at 10% growth rates until the Federal Reserve took over." "And then, if you look at that, it all starts really going downhill from there." "They've destroyed the American worker." "What they've done - here's what's happened." "The Federal Reserve has created this massive inflation in America." "Which means that the American worker has to keep making more money to keep up with the cost of living." "The more money they make to keep with the cost of living, the less competitive they become in the world economy." "So now what happens is we have to pay our workers so much to keep up with the cost of living, so we say:" ""Screw the American worker." "Let's go overseas now and get the cheap labor."" "And really, that's a war being waged against the middle class." "Of course, it is!" "The bankers print the money." "Really, this is a war being waged against the middle class." "The bankers print the money." "Everything they're doing is about destroying any private pools of wealth or independence." "Yeah, but what I'm trying to say is:" "because of the inflation that they've created, they've now allowed other countries to outcompete us." "Cause other countries don't have to pay as much money as we have to pay here to our workers to survive." "So now we're not competitive anymore." "So we've lost our manufacturing base." "We've lost our competitive." "In the old days, the American worker, you wanted to buy everything American." "You wouldn't buy anything from Japan, cause it was cheap crap." "And what does that leave us?" "It leaves America this military force." "And so the elite's giving us a deal:" ""We'll continue to build up your military and give you Homeland Security jobs, shift your economy over to being the bulldog enforcer of the New World Order."" "Exactly." "And by controlling the economy, they force everybody into that position." "That's exactly correct." "There's no more manufacturing here." "We're a service economy." "We do nothing, we provide nothing." "We provide nothing to the rest of the world anymore." "Well, first of all, Freedom to Fascism is a movie that everybody should see." "Because we show the fraud of the income tax, we show how judges put people in jail for no reason." "We show the corruption of the justice system." "And we show how the Federal Reserve came into being, and how it's controlling society." "And how all the central banks of the world are working together to the Bank of International Settlements in Switzerland, which is the central bank for all the central banks." "And how they all work together to create this one World Government, the one World Order, which is what they're trying to do." "So Freedom to Fascism is a movie just to get your good basic education about how their world is really working." "And I really want everybody to see that movie, critical." "In terms of the CFR, in terms of compartmentalization..." "I mean, there are many good people, I believe, that are part of these organizations who don't even understand what these organizations are really about." "People like when I was in Germany doing cancer treatment." "There was a gentleman there who was visiting a friend of his with cancer." "And he was a member of the CFR." "We were talking, and I showed him the movie." "He said: "Oh, my God!" "I'm gonna resign!" "I had no idea what the CFR was about!"" "He had no idea." "He was just a nice guy who thought he was in this prestigious organization." "Yeah, a lot of it's about getting good people and taking to watch them." "Keep your friends close, your enemies closer." "A lot of people join the CFR, because they think it's a prestigious organization, they'll have them in business, make good business contacts." "They don't have an understanding that the CFR was really about world domination." "About how they and the Trilateral Commission, the Bilderbergers, all work together, the banks, to control the people." "A lot of them don't understand that." "They don't see the big picture." ""Oh, it's CFR, it's a prestigious organization." "I make this so I make that, and I could do good business deals out of it."" "It's just business to them." "And CFR wants to get the people in there that have influence and power, so they are part of that, they're not opposing them." "The whole country today is becoming the haves and have-nots." "You're getting the very, very wealthy;" "the middle class is being destroyed;" "and you're getting the poor people." "Isn't this just a slick mafia that took over and uses fancy PR?" "Well, you can call it mafia, you call it whatever you want, but it's definitely a criminal organization." "There's no question about it." "But it's criminal organization that has prestige." "That appears to have..." "What's the word I'm looking for?" "Class?" "Class, style." "It's respected." "People don't look at it as being a criminal organization." "That's what a great job they've done." "People look at Alan Greenspan as being a hero, the maestro." "What do you think happened with him?" "In the late '60s, he wrote a big section, a chapter for Ayn Rand in a book." "And he told about how horrible the Federal Reserve was, we need a gold standard, how the bankers are robbing us." "And then they literally came and said:" ""Oh, you see, smarty you!" "Who made a deal with Beelzebub!"" "Exactly!" "You make a deal with the devil!" "They gave him a chance to be one of those powerful men on the Earth." "And they gave him a chance to accomplish things he never thought he would accomplish in his life other than that." "And it's very seductive." "It's a very attractive perfume." "I was attracted when they came to me and spoke to me about." "I thought about it, I was attracted to it." "They asked me if I wanted to open up these nightclubs, open up a chain of Baywatch Nightclubs, you know." "Or do this thing, or do that, or we can do this." "All these things were proposed to me, business ventures." "You know it isn't with your nature, though." "It's just that's all who you are." "You couldn't take to that." "I can't do that to people." "I just can't be in a position where I could do that to other people." "I just have a conscience." "And my conscience would not permit me to do that." "People say I'm very courageous." "I'm not being courageous." "I think I have a conscience." "And my conscience doesn't allow me to do that to people." "It just makes me feel sick." "I just don't believe in it." "Oh, I agree." "When I do bad things, I feel bad." "When I do good things, I feel good." "Yeah, exactly." "I feel the same way." "And I don't know what's gonna come out of it..." "I mean, I don't have that much money, but I've got some money." "And what more do I need?" "Helps me pay for my kids go to school and have life comfortable." "I don't like to screw people so I could have some more junk." "You know, money's a funny thing." "I was talking to Michael Eisner one day, and I said to Michael:" ""You may have a billion dollars, Michael, but they're all dollars." "If the dollar goes bare, how much money are you gonna have?"" "And that's the thing." "Everything is denominated in dollars." "So everybody thinks in terms of dollars." "But dollar has no value." "And some day, everything returns to the mean." "Well, really, the whole Universe, financial Universe we live in is a Matrix fraud." "Yes, it is." "And that's why it's gonna come crashing at some point." "And they're gonna try and hold up as long as they can." "I mean, whenever they wanna manipulate the markets, they can." "If they wanna send the price of gold down lower, they can." "If they wanna send the stock market up, they can." "There's no more free markets." "You don't live in a society where free markets rule anymore." "You don't live in a capitalistic society." "But meanwhile, they say it's capitalistic and free market all day when really they are waging war financially and politically." "Exactly right!" "Aaron Russo, I wanna thank you for this interview!" "Anything else you wanna add?" "No, I'm happy to do it for you." "How about your website?" "But just, folks, you know, all I can say is: take our country back, restore the Constitution, don't let these bankers do this to us anymore." "Stand up, don't be afraid of them." "And do what you gotta do." "I have plans and works." "And when I get over my problems, I'll overfill them." "Well, I'll be supportive of that." "Thank you, Alex." "And listen, you've done a great job learning people to the truth." "Don't be afraid to be ridiculed by these people." "If 9/11 was a phoney, and I know it was, then stand up and say it's a phoney." "Don't be scared to tell the truth." "Don't allow their powers of trying to make you look silly to frighten you." "What do you think of what Charlie Sheen did?" "I love what Charlie Sheen did!" "I was so respectful of what he did." "I just applauded him." "People saw right through that attack, lit like a flip of light switch, when they went after him." "Yeah, but you see, the thing is that more people don't come out and do it." "They build that wave." "Charlie did it." "I'm really proud of the guy." "David Lynch did." "But the media was smart, didn't bite this time." "Right." "I mean, a few people have been picking up on it, cause they control the media." "Brolin, James Brolin did, of a few." "I heard that." "I heard that as well." "But again they're not picking up." "Barbara Walters looked like she's about to have a heart attack." "But they don't pick up on it, you see." "They don't allow it to go anywhere." "If someone says something, they let it die." "But they keep perpetuating War on Terrorism, they keep perpetuating all these things that are lies." "And because we've given the Federal Reserve the moneymaking power, they control the media, they control the government, and they're all in bed together." "So you're fighting all this propaganda all the time." "And it's a very difficult fight." "Americans, mobilize." "Stand together, stand tall, tell the government you're mad as hell, no longer cooperate with the government, do not accept the national ID card, do everything in your power to restore freedom and your individuality back to America." "Stop being a country run by the institutions for the institutions." "Let's go back to "we the people, by the people, for the people"" "as opposed to "we the institution, by the institution, for the institution."" "Stand up for your individual rights." "Stand up for the godliness that's in each and every one of us." "Thank you for watching this historic interview with Aaron Russo." "Please, don't just stand down after watching this film." "Research the private Federal Reserve for yourself, realize it is the main head on the hydra that we have to go after." "Realize that we can fight the political parties all day, but until we go after the heart, the root of the problem, nothing's gonna get better." "We have this ruling class of private bankers that issue all this fiat currency." "And they have committed unbelievable crimes and have the audacity to claim that they're above the law." "Ladies and gentlemen, now more than ever we don't have a choice." "It's us or them." "Either the New World Order is removed from power, or the world faces more wars, more tyranny and a nightmarish police state carried out by these eugenicists." "So in the memory of Aaron Russo and every other freedom lover out there in history, and for the future of our children and the species, humanity itself, let's call for grand jury investigations of the private Federal Reserve." "Let's arrest the bankers!" "Let's kick these foreign corporate criminals out of our country and get our constitutional republic back." "Let's stop being distracted and diverted by the liberal and conservative puppets they stick up in our faces on television." "Let's look past the frontmen to the actual architects of the New World Order and bring them to justice." "There's no way these arrogant bastards can get away with this if we expose them and speak out against them." "And more and more it's coming out even in the mainstream media that they are a pack of criminals who are above the law and who have hijacked our nation." "But they're only above the law in our minds." "We have to expose them as the criminals they are and bring them to justice." "Look in the mirror." "You are the solution." "Take action." "And join the ranks of folks like Aaron Russo, Ron Paul and so many others." "God bless you all and thank you for watching this presentation." "Now spread the word about the true enemy of the people." "End the Fed!" "End the New World Order!" "End the hegemony of private central bankers!" "Transcript  subtitles by dustfire" "It is a big idea, a New World Order." "In the near future, Earth is dominated by a powerful World Government." "...is known as the Bilderberg Group." "Should their objective be world domination?" "For thousands of years, their dark order grew." "Now as they hail the birth of the New World Order, their great dream of exterminating 80% of humanity is at hand." "For the first time in history, the elite's plan for world government is blown wide open." "You will learn the secret that drives the entire New World Order agenda." "Bilderberg is making great progress toward a world government." "And only an educated, informed public can stop them in their tracks." "For the first time, all the pieces have been put together." "The dots have been connected, and the picture is crystal clear." "Earth's ruling elite believe they have discovered the Fountain of Youth." "But before they can attain it, 80% of us must die." "The psychopathic technocracy is establishing world government, so there can be no escape from their plan." "The New World Order is the Old World Order." "I mean, just the names have changed, the appearances have changed." "Most people have no idea:" "they're not after money, they have all the money they need." "They're after power." "That's their aphrodisiac." "I was pulled out of plane in Munich." "They interrogated me 4 hours." "Some shots were fired." "I need you to move off the property." "Their great dream of exterminating 80% of humanity is at hand." "Endgame:" "Blueprint for Global Enslavement." "You have been warned." "Obama is notoriously a liar." "We need to go to where the real architecture of government is." "And it's not in a President." "Wall Street has hijacked Washington in broad daylight." "End the Fed!" "End the Fed!" "Well, Obama's already fudged." "He's fudged since Day One in this election." "The elite are using Obama to pacify the public, so they can usher in the North American Union by stealth, launch a new cold war and continue the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan." "The globalists are outside all the nations." "That gives them safety, and they play countries off against each other." "You gotta give them a stake in creating the kind of... world order that, I think, all of us would like to see." "Partnership and cooperation among nations is not a choice." "It is the only way." "What they are doing is using the existence of the United States to act up their Wall Street fantasies of world domination and maintaining their capital structures, and maintaining their system of looting." "The fight that this country has been waging since its inception is for the central bankers not to take over the country." "President Barack Obama is only the tool of a larger agenda." "Senator Obama had a desire to do some meetings." "I just had a desire to meet with him tonight in a private way, and that's what we do." "Presidential candidate Barack Obama was publically criticizing the North American Free Trade Agreement in a bid for votes, but privately telling Canadian officials not to worry about it." "If you talk to our generals, they are desperate for is a civilian counterpart to our military force." "What do you call this thing when you get this false sense of gratification?" "Because a black man is in office, everything's gonna be all right." "No, everything's not gonna be all right." "So I know how unpopular it is to be seen as helping banks right now, especially when everyone is suffering in part from their bad decisions." "I promise you, I get it." "The Obama Deception."
