Glenn Beck Highlights Threat Of Martial Law Following
Economic Crisis
Poses question "are we being purposefully led into
a one world financial system?"
Like him or loathe him, last night CNN’s Glenn Beck became
the only mainstream media source thus far to address on national
TV the reality of the situation Americans are facing with the
manufactured financial implosion - the direct threat of domestic
martial law and a global financial dictatorship.
Beck’s guest, Peter Schiff, respected author
of “Crash Proof” and president of the brokerage firm
Euro Pacific Capital, joined him in outlining that martial law,
the use of armed troops on the streets to quell dissent, is a
real possibility should the economic crisis not improve or worsen
to the point where civil unrest is fomented.
The following exchange between Beck and Schiff,
who was also economic adviser to Ron Paul during his presidential
campaign, is from the CNN
transcript of last night’s show:
SCHIFF: You know, what`s going to happen, of course,
is as inflation starts running out of control and prices start
going through the roof, the government again is going to focus
on the symptoms and not the disease.
And they`re going to impose price controls on energy, on food,
on a lot of other things that are vital, which means shortages,
which means long lines, black markets, civil unrest. All this
stuff is coming if we don`t stop. [...]
BECK: Peter, let`s talk a little bit about martial law. Why
would that even be a consideration?
SCHIFF: Well, I don`t think it was a threat if they had rejected
the bailout Bill, but I think it is a possibility a few years
down the line. We just spoke a little bit about price controls
and the effect that they`re going to have.
If we have shortages of food, if we have rolling blackouts.
And people are upset, and they`re hungry, and they`re cold,
there could be civil unrest. There could be looting, rioting,
and that might be the impetus for the government to declare
martial law.
BECK: You know, I don`t think you`re a couple of years away
from something like that. I mean, honestly, Peter, I mean, look
at what`s happening. In a half hour, I`ve got a congressman
on about — about the racism cries. I mean, there are people
that are right now so disenfranchised, and I think being encouraged
to be disenfranchised on both sides, that at any time this damn
thing could break apart.
SCHIFF: Yes. And we`re giving the government so much power.
And you know, you give up a lot more civil liberties. When you
have martial law and you`ve got the military policing our streets,
when you`ve got suspension of habeas corpus, you`ve got curfews,
you can`t be out of your house after dark, and they can just
pick you up and put you in prison and keep you there indefinitely
without charges, and there`s nothing you can do about it?
I mean, we`re giving up one liberty after another, all to protect
ourselves from this economic crisis, which needs to happen anyway,
but it doesn`t need to be nearly this bad.
BECK: Peter, this is — I mean, we`re in Crazytown, USA.
But my gut tells me that, two years down the road — let`s
just use that number — this country is not going to look
anything like it does today. Our world has changed; it just
hasn`t caught up.
During the ten minute segment, Beck and Schiff also
pointed out that America is headed for Weimar Republic style hyperinflation
at the hands of global bankers, stated that the financial implosion
has been manufactured by design, warned that the Treasury has
been given dictatorial powers and raised the question of whether
the end game is a one world currency and one world financial governance.
Beck also played the now infamous clip of Democratic
Congressman Brad Sherman from October 2nd stating
that several members of Congress were threatened before the bailout
vote that martial law would be instigated in America if the legislation
was not passed.
Like him or loathe him, last night CNN’s Glenn Beck became
the only mainstream media source thus far to address on national
TV the reality of the situation Americans are facing with the
manufactured financial implosion - the direct threat of domestic
martial law and a global financial dictatorship.
