THE BARCLAYS OCTOPUS –

WHO CONTROLS THE BIG MONEY IN THE USA BEFORE THE

CRASH IN 2007?

If we know who controls the big money, then it becomes obvious that the bailout
of Big Money is essentially a bailout of the financial puppet masters behind the
Big Money - Q.E.D.

I am sure that you are more than surprised that the Barclays Octopus is a major
shareholder of so many big money banks before the crash of 2007. Read on!

It is interesting and mind boggling that Barclays Global Investors Holdings Ltd
is a major shareholder in all the ten banks.

It is the number 1 shareholder in Bank of America, Citigroup, JP Morgan, Bank

of New York Mellon and the Sun trust Banks.

It is the 2nd largest shareholder in Wells Fargo Bank.

It is the 3rd largest shareholder in Wachovia Bank.

It is the 6th largest shareholder in Royal Bank of Canada and Bank of Nova
Scotia.

It is the 9th largest shareholder in Toronto Dominion Bank.

It is equally interesting that State Street Corporation is one of the top 5 largest
shareholders of seven of the big banks.
It is the 2nd largest shareholder in Bank of America.

It is the 3rd largest shareholder in Citigroup, JP Morgan, Wells Fargo and the
Bank of New York Mellon.

It is the 4th largest shareholder in Wachovia Bank.

It is the 5th largest shareholder in Sun Trust Banks.

Therefore, two principal corporations have direct and controlling major

stakes in the top ten banks. However, this becomes more awesome, when we
add the indirect interest!

The Canadian banks of the Royal Canadian Bank, Bank of Nova Scotia and the
Toronto Dominion Bank have an incestuous cross ownership and each having
Barclays Global Investors Holdings Ltd as a major shareholder as well.

B) The Top Investment Banks

Barclays Global Investors Holdings Ltd and State Street Corporation are
also major direct shareholders of the following investment banks:

Goldman Sachs

Merrill Lynch

Morgan Stanley

Lehman Brothers

Charles Schwab Corp

Bear Stearns

Once again, if we add the indirect interest, the control is awesome.

C) Mortgage Corporations

Barclays Global Investors Holdings Ltd is also a major direct shareholder in

the following mortgage corporations

Countrywide Financial Corp

Freddie Mac – Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation

Fannie Mae – Federal National Mortgage Association

Sallie Mae – SLM Corporation

It has also indirect interest.

E) Companies Listed In HUI / XAU

companies.

F) Funds

There are so many funds out there, but we will just select one for the purposes of
illustration.

Who is behind BlackRock Inc?

BlackRock Inc. headed a $75 billion fund to rescue Structured Investment

Vehicles (SIVs) which went belly up, which meant bailing out the big boys who
were in the shits of these SIVs.

Yes, it is Barclays Global Investors Holdings Ltd and its banking associates.

G) Defence Contractors

How About the Top Ten Defence Contractors?

Lockheed Martin Corp.

Boeing Co.

Northrop Grumman Corp.

General Dynamics Corp.

Raytheon Co.

Halliburton Co.

BAE Systems PLC

United Technologies Corp.

Communications Holdings, Inc.

Computer Sciences Corp.

Again it is Barclays Global Investors Holdings Ltd. State Street Corporation

is also a substantial shareholder in the above companies.

The $trillion dollar question must be – who is behind the Barclays Octopus
and its ally State Street Corporation?

If I am to reveal the details of the financial puppet masters behind these two
financial giants, most of you would not believe me and will accuse me of being a
conspiracy theorist.

Just as well, because I have no intention of spoon feeding you. If you genuinely
want the truth to change the existing situation and to survive this financial mess, I
believe that you owe it to yourself to spend time and money (as I have, and I
don’t rely on any outside support other than my hard-earned money) to dig deep
and uncover the extent of the tentacles of these two financial octopus.

There has been a justified protest (but no mass demonstration in the millions by
ordinary good people) against the massive bonuses paid out to so-called
bankers. If you are naïve enough to believe that these financial pay-packets were
all given out to so-called loyal and or dedicated employees, please wake up.

This is one of the back-door means of distributing the hundreds of billions of

bailout monies to the controllers who own the big money institutions.
When you are robbed at gun point for a couple of hundred dollars, you would
scream obscenities, lodge a police report and demand retribution against the
scumbag.

When so-called terrorists hijacked planes and crashed into the twin towers etc.,
killed three thousand innocent people and caused a temporary glitch to your
comfort zone, you demanded vengeance and invaded first Afghanistan and then
Iraq, killing millions and wounding and displacing millions more. Whole countries
were devastated. The chorus led by fascist Bush was – You are either with us
or you are with the terrorists. Vengeance, vengeance and blood lust was the
call to action!

Yet, yes - you clever Americans (the big bullies) who believe that you and your
country are exceptional and must show the world its values and demand that
the rest of the world emulate and practice these so-called American values are
so stupid and ignorant that when you are robbed in broad daylight in the
$trillions, you accept the status quo without a whimper of protest. And I offer no
apologies for being so blunt. Nothing seems to wake you guys up from your
slumber.

You fell for a slick propaganda and elected a slick mouthpiece.

There is no change, meaningful change that will expose and put to an end the
choking control of such financial octopus as the Barclays and State Street
Octopus.

The Barclays and State Street are just two of the hidden force. Their exposure in
this article will, I hope encourage others to expose the rest. Please do your part.

If you want change, get out and do some meaningful work. Dig deep and expose
these fraudulent financial puppet masters and tell everyone.

There will be no change, if people remain ignorant. And if the people are
ignorant, they will not know the real culprits, who have destroyed their families,
homes and livelihood. There is no target to aim so as to rally the people to go
after them!

Fast Forward to 2010

It has been said by many that the global financial crisis has resulted in a massive
transfer of wealth from one group to another. Here, I am not talking about the
impoverishment of the middle class.

I am talking about the transfer of wealth within the ranks of the 1% global
financial elites.
Surprise, surprise! Barclays Global Investors Holdings Ltd is no longer the front
runner. That role has been taken over by State Street Corporation.

The Home Page of State Street proudly declares “that its singular focus is on
serving the needs of institutional investors and is one of its key competitive
differentiators. With US$19.0 trillion in assets under custody and administration,
and US$1.9 trillion under management as of March 31, 2010, State Street is
an industry leader and innovator - setting standards with new products and
services, and expanding the depth and breadth of client relationships. Our
longstanding reputation as a capable and experienced service provider
consistently positions us at the top of industry rankings.”

I want to draw your attention to figures highlighted in bold - US$19 trillion

and US$1.9 trillion.

Now, please examine the Schedules annexed to this article.

Two things I want you to dig deep on your own:

1) Ask how did the $trillions ended up with corporations like State Street?
Follow the money trail. This is your clue.

2) Next, examine the new players who have climbed up the rankings. Which
names strike your mind? Dig deep and follow the money trail.

What I have exposed here in these pages is the tip of the iceberg of the
Greatest Financial Scam in History!

More importantly, the various factions within the global financial elites are
fighting among themselves for control of the Global casino. The war has just
started. Before it is over, expect more blood and dead meat on Wall Street and
Main Street!
