2:06 everybody. I am going to start off today playing a video, and I need y'all to let me know if you can hear this video. I don't know how to make the video, the sound on the video when I do this. I tried this once before, so we're going to do it. I have a backup. You always have to be ready. So here's what we're going to do. I'm going to stop sharing my screen.
2:47 and i'm going to hold this up and i want y'all to listen to this video book a meeting you know since it's the model of democracy and i'm still has expired hold on there it goes this is uh colonel mamaday and this is a photo of of him did we train and equip him my name i i cannot identify that well that's him with a bunch of u.s service members outside of our embassy and just months after this photo was taken in 2021
3:20 He led a coup in Guinea and throughout the leader. Does that concern you? Congressman, core values is what we start off with in IMA programs. Do we share core values with Colonel Dambuya? Core values. I'll repeat that. He led a coup? We do. So I guess four months after that exchange, General Langley, you had General Moussa Bamu overthrow the government in Niger.
3:50 It won't surprise anybody here that we trained him. The person who overthrew the democratically elected government in his year went to the National Defense University, trained at Fort Benning, Georgia. So do we share core values with Musa Bamu? Congressman, let me go ahead and state that core values is what we start off with. But there is no syllabus for overthrowing a government, not in our institutions.
4:20 Well, they're learning it pretty well, even in the absence of a syllabus, right? Because if you look at Chad, Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, in a lot of these countries, the coup is led by someone we trained. Now, I put in the National Defense Authorization Act a requirement for you to issue us a report as to how many coup leaders our taxpayers have funded the training for. That report is due tomorrow. Will we be getting it on time?
4:51 I'll do a follow-up on that, Congressman. Well, this was the follow-up, right? Because first I asked you in that clip, how many coup leaders did we train? You didn't know. And so then I put it in the law for you to tell me. The law requires you to tell me by tomorrow. So can you give us a preview of coming attractions? You'll get your answer, Congressman. But let me say, there's no correlation. And there's no causation of U.S. training to these members. Well, that's what I'm trying to find out.
5:20 In like a dozen countries, the coup leaders are people we train. Like, what a difference a year makes. March 16th, 2023, Secretary Blinken calls Niger, quote, a model of resilience, a model of democracy, a model of cooperation. One year and one day later, Dr. Wallander, the spokesperson of the Niger military, Colonel Amadou Amabrameh, says, quote,
5:50 The American presence in the territory of the Republic of Niger is illegal. A year and a day after our government said they were the model of resilience and democracy, they are throwing us out by the scruffs of our neck. And so is it safe to say that this failed, General Langley? It's safe to say that there's no correlation or causation of U.S. training to a coup happening. Period.
6:20 It certainly isn't. There's no causation or correlation to the training we do creating more stability. I'm trying to ascertain whether or not all this money we spend in Africa makes the place less stable or more stable. And just for a country lawyer like me, if we're funding the coup leaders, that probably strikes me as making it less stable. Now, are you aware of the Iranian efforts to now mine in Niger, General Langley? Congressman, we can talk about it in a classified section on that. Well, I mean, Fox News is reporting it.
6:49 They're saying that Iran is working on economic arrangements to get uranium from Niger. Well, in class last session, we're going to talk real intel. Yeah, I guess. I mean, we spent more than $500 million in the country. What can you say we've got for that $500 million? As we sit here today, if it's like being turned into an Iranian mine, the Russians are the preferred security partner, and we're training the coup leaders.
7:16 There is a buy-down on an insurance policy for protecting the homeland. I don't think we're doing that, though. I don't think there's evidence to suggest that. You went to Niger. I respect your opinion. Okay, but General Angley, you went to Niger, and you went to have a meeting with the people we trained who overthrew the democratically elected government, and Fox News is reporting that you didn't even get a meeting with the principal decision-maker. Is that right? I had a meeting with my counterpart.
7:48 well here's the quote sources say last week's meeting with the junta was extremely difficult the administration's envoys did not get to meet with niger's principal decision maker is that a true statement or is that a false statement my responsibility is to meet with my counterpart not not not i would just hope leaders could at least book a meeting you know since it's the model of democracy
8:19 And I know we're here for a book review, but I have to do this. I'm sorry. So let me start off by saying I'm going to deal with the end part first. That general is to the military what Kamala Harris is to the White House. OK, that is clearly a DEI hire. That was the most ridiculous hearing.
8:57 response. I've watched many of these. I've prepared language for these things. That was disgusting. So this guy, this four star, is saying, Matt Gaetz asked him, how come you weren't able to meet with the now head of state? Because two days ago, not literally, within a very short time prior to the coup,
9:27 That was his counterpart. That guy we trained that's now in charge of Niger was his counterpart. He just took the president out and stepped up. So they know each other. They've dealt with each other. He wouldn't see him. Okay. That's not good. And for anybody that's new here.
9:59 Because I know all the people that's been here for a while are wearing their Gladio glasses and knew immediately what Matt Gaetz is talking about. We have discovered that the CIA, working with NATO and trained assassins, trained in our schoolhouses, take out these governments. It's the whole purpose. We also have learned through all of our exploration that the School of Americas that was in Panama.
10:31 Trains all these dictators. They were kicked out of Panama and they moved that school to Fort Benning. And you heard Matt Gates say that guy in Niger was trained at Fort Benning. That general who says assassinations or coups aren't on their syllabus. Every aspect of conducting a coup is on their syllabus. I've provided links.
11:02 to those training manuals. They were in a news article. You can find them. They're all over the internet. All you have to do is search on Schools of America, the congressional hearings that exposed them teaching people how to kidnap, how to create terror, how to torture, and how to use explosives. Those things are all on the syllabus. Everything you need.
11:34 to conduct a coup is on the syllabus. The fact that they don't call it a coup means absolutely nothing. And that's why when you know more than your witness is, than your witness thinks you know, you can dissect everything. His redirect should have been, okay, is kidnapping on the syllabus? Is torture on the syllabus? Because we all know it is. Everything about.
12:07 That exchange validates months and months, I think we're on almost a year now, worth of research that we have done into this subject. So I feel completely vindicated that people realize what is actually going on, that it is us effecting these coups and providing the training for them.
12:38 So I'm tickled to death in a good way that this happened and that it's being exposed. I'm totally embarrassed that that disgusting piece of wasted oxygen is wearing a four-star uniform. That is the most embarrassing.
13:07 Well, there's no causation or correlation when you train somebody how to be an assassin and you train somebody how to use explosives and you train somebody how to torture and kidnap somebody. And they're just so happens to be a coup that they do with that training. I'm going to say.
13:37 that there's a correlation holy crap that's like kamala harris's well we need to look at the root cause um well um yes but that's not the root cause holy crap okay thank god i retired when i did there'd probably be some dead bodies somewhere oh my gosh or i'd be locked up in an insane asylum okay so
14:15 Now we're on chapter four. And I do want to say something. I did have a friend of mine make a comment about they think that most of what we're doing here is reading the book. I'm not reading the book. So most of the time when I have the time, because I've already read the books front and cover before we ever decide that we're going to do it as a book review.
14:44 I make my own notes and I read from my notes because one of the things that we do based on the fact that we've done all of these other books is we overlay the knowledge that we need to get the most out of the book if all we do is sit on here and read it. So number one, we're not doing that. Number two, I mean, I highlight, I write notes because I do additional research.
15:12 And I've written in all the columns across the top of the pages. And I bring you that additional research that the author either didn't have available at the time, because some of these books are fairly old. Some of them were written in the 90s when this stuff was first coming out. So I just wanted to let y'all know that, that you don't feel like I'm babysitting you reading your books. You are going to get some additional expertise out of this.
15:40 Oh, and one last announcement before we get started so I don't have to interrupt. And I don't forget, more importantly, at 9 o'clock tonight, we will be on Badlands Media on SITREP. And when I say we, I don't have a frog in my pocket. Liza and Bridget, my two best friends in this journey, always are with me.
16:11 and providing me two extra sets of eyes. We have done so much research into all of this. It is impossible, even though I have literally a big head, biggest cowboy hats, I can't keep all of it in the air all the time. So they are with me behind the scenes all the time. I always have signal open.
16:40 They feed me anything drinking buddies. I did tell Liza today I owe her. What is it that you drink, Liza? I'm not a hard liquor person. I do drink a little tequila. She drinks one of those bourbon things. I don't know whatever it is. The stuff that when I smell it makes me sick. But I do owe her that. And the next time we see each other, she will definitely have the best there is, the best that money can buy. So anyway.
17:10 I did want to put that out there and let y'all know you're actually getting three for one every time I'm on the air because they're always with me. And thank God they are. I would not be where I am today without them. So, nor would we with all of this knowledge. They are bourbon. I thought it was bourbon. Okay. That part I did remember. All right. Let's get started. Chapter four, storming the Indies. So, where we left off last time is the fact that they...
17:38 The Japanese had went already into Korea and colonized it. They went into China and they had went into Manchuria. And for those of you who are not all that savvy as far as history goes in World War II, they eventually take all of the Pacific. I mean, everything. Thank you for that compliment, Frodo.
18:06 We're going to go through some of the other islands that they pick up along the way and some of the grossness. And I will tell you, a couple of times when I have dealt with this particular subject, it is very emotional. If you've ever served in the military and you've ever met any of the people that lived through this, it's very difficult. So starting off.
18:38 The author makes the point that from Japan's perspective, what they did in Manchuria, even though they technically won the territory, it was a failure from the perspective of it generating the type of money based on the effort of the military, the expenditures on the military to achieve the victory.
19:06 They were looking more for quick wins. They were thinking that they were so military superior that they could get in and get out, take all of the crap in these, the valuables, if you will, and not expend a lot of time and energy or manpower on these wars. And so although they got great quantities from each victory,
19:37 The stuff that they got, the treasure, went to private entities. So you remember when we talked about the Congo and we said that Belgium's king had captured the Congo, not for the Belgian people, although he used Belgium army to guard it and to conquer it and to mine it and to everything else.
20:06 The people for their expenditures got zero. The Belgian king got all of the Congo and all of the riches because as he sold the uranium out of there, he pocketed that money. So that's very important to understand. That's exactly what's going on in Japan during World War II. The treasure that they're collecting is not going back to the Japanese at all. They're poor, except for the chosen families.
20:38 So, but it is the population that is paying in their bodies as far as being in the military and their resources to pay for the military. The military's paychecks are not coming out of these profits that they're getting or these treasures. So the Japanese king, emperor, and his family are pocketing in banks all over the world all of this treasure.
21:06 And they're paying for the war out of the pockets of the people. Ring any bells? We do that exact same thing now. We have used all of their prototypes, only we do it for the international syndicate. Our blood and treasure, our taxes, our youth go to fight foreign wars for the international syndicate to open businesses, steal resources.
21:36 And we get zero, except for debt and dead bodies. So don't think that what's going on is new. It is not new, but it has to stop. And by going over this history, I want y'all to understand how long this has been going on. So the underlying problem of the corrupt ruling elite was aggravated.
22:13 by the infusion of stolen treasure. And conspicuously, the patriotism is what they relied on in order for the people to continue fighting the wars. Does that sound familiar? They did things on purpose to stoke patriotism. They framed being attacked.
22:42 so that they could instigate patriotism to brainwash people into dying for their country. Does that sound familiar? It should, because it's exactly what we do. Few dared to speak out. Why? Because you end up in jail January 6th. Getting bogged down in China removed all of the restraints on the military spending.
23:12 That's why they needed to go and try to come up with some quick wins. Tokyo was counting on a sequence of surprise attacks followed by quick negotiated settlements so they basically could take all of the resources in these negotiated settlements without expending all of the military expenses. This was true in Taiwan, the Philippines, Indonesia. Few Japanese officials believed that they could win a long war.
23:43 So they were in it for the quick wins. In 1941, Hirohito was persuaded that Japan was going to have the advantage of a surprise attack. And this is a very interesting twist. He was in contact with Pope Pius XII. He came up in Operation Gladio in Europe as well, hoping the Pope would negotiate a peace settlement at the right moment.
24:14 To sweeten his bid for the Pope's favor, Harry Hito had his financial advisors move $45 million into the Vatican Bank in Rome and to the Vatican-controlled banks in Portugal and Spain. Now, I have my Gladio glasses on, so why is Portugal and Spain important? Because Portugal and Spain are both fascist dictators.
24:44 Already installed, remember, because Spain had Franco in charge of it. And Portugal is where a genter press eventually gets set up with a fascist dictator in charge. Both of them hotbeds of training for Operation Gladio because of the dictators. When it was launched, the strike south moved with stunning speed. The day after Pearl Harbor, Shanghai International Settlement was overran. Japanese.
25:16 troops landed in siam the government in bangkok surrendered thailand the malay peninsula overran the british ships called the prince of wales and repulse were both sunk by japanese planes and japanese went the distance in burma and sumatra so by the end of september they had thailand
25:48 Shanghai International had already attacked the U.S., Malaysia, Burma, Sumatra, Hong Kong, Wake, Guam, Philippines, and Indonesia, and Java. So by five months after the attack on Pearl Harbor, they basically had all of Southeast Asia. Basically, they were committing...
26:19 a massive scale armed robbery of all of these countries. So 12 months into this campaign, yeah, overachievers. I don't think that's ever been done before. Japan was in a hurry. They used terror to force submissions. The loot that they amassed became what is now known as Golden Lily.
26:49 And in the place of the governments that they overthrew, the Kempete, which is what is like the people that they put in charge of businesses, that kind of family structure, and the special services units were backfilled into all of these places.
27:19 to basically steal everything. The inventory was oversaw, as we learned last chapter, by the princes that were related to the king. Tokyo's policy on looting was set by Hirohito, the emperor, and they actually had a conference to talk about how it was going to be done. They actually even wrote it down.
27:46 Principles for the Implementation of Military Administration of the Occupied Southern Areas. That was the name of the instructions. He directed the military to enforce the acquisition of strategic materials, the establishment of self-sufficiency of occupying armies, and the restoration of law and order. So let's translate that. Acquisition meant armed robbery. Self-sufficient meant steal all their food.
28:18 Restoration of law and order meant suppress all opposition and put yourself in charge. These orders gave a free hand to the local military people. And they also had a guy by the name of Hashito Nayaki, who was the head of the narcotics trade as Hirohito's top aide.
28:49 Quote, there are no restrictions on us. These were enemy possessions. We can take them and do anything we want, unquote. And they did. World War II received little attention. As far as the Pacific side goes, we heard a lot of stuff about the European theater, but there was coercion, terror, extortion, and betrayal all over.
29:20 um the pacific theater prominent citizens chose to betray their nation their families rather than forfeit their personal wealth financial collusion with japan remains one of the world's most closely guarded secrets even today from the u.s's perspective because we're still in bed with them books have been published about the lot nazi looting but not so much about the eastern theater
29:52 Recent efforts by the U.S. Congress, and not recent as in now when this book was published, led to the passage of a public law to assure public access for the first time to classify documents about Japan's conduct in the war. At the last moment, a loophole was added, permitting the CIA director to decide which documents were relevant and which could be withheld. They always do this.
30:22 This permitted the CIA to filter out all documents that would reveal unsavory American collusion with Japan, and there was a bunch. As Japan went south, they took copper wire, oil, coal, iron, rice, dried fish, preserved meat, salt. In Malaya,
30:46 The Philippines and the Dutch East Indies, every kind of real estate was confiscated, private homes, hotels, granary, petroleum tank farms, and fish farms. Failure to arrange a quick truce through the Pope left an alternative to more robbery. Despite initial victories by mid-1942, it was obvious to Prince Chichibu, which is Hirohito's brother, and Prince...
31:18 Takamatsu, another brother, and to many others that the war was going to be lost militarily, but they were going to get as much as they could before that happened. So after the fall of Singapore, Chichibu established a regional headquarters of Golden Lily in Singapore. It was staffed with clerks, bookkeepers, and accountants.
31:48 Because they were going to come up with packing lists and estimated value of all the treasure that they were stealing. So they used what is referred to and still to this day, overseas Chinese people to make deals with as far as melting down tin, steel, gold, jewelry.
32:21 um from laos cambodia siam and burma and they they basically recycled all of it after melting it down and um re-stamping it uh in the casting process much like they did with the black eagle fund with um that's what sweden did sweden basically laundered not the black eagle fund the the sweet
32:53 Swedes took all of the czar's gold and basically melted it down and re-stamped it with Germany's and many others, not just Germany, but they basically were the money launderers for the gold in melting it down and recasting it in different banks stamps so that they could pay.
33:23 All of the international syndicate from both London and New York that went over there to build the railroads, electrify like GE. GE got a bunch of the gold because they went in and electrified the entire Soviet Union under contracts. And they were paid in this gold that was money laundered through the Swedish banks. And the Swiss did the same thing for Germany.
33:49 And that's the Black Eagle Fund. That's right, Liza. And the one that was used, one of three that was used in the Golden Lily was called the M Fund, which Liza is absolutely right about. And we will get to that in a future chapter. But that is one of the ones that they hid all of this wealth in. The wealth that they couldn't put in the actual imperial palace to hide it.
34:15 And that was already like a trillion dollars at the end of the day. So one of the factories that they used to cast this was used, they used slave labor from people that they exported from these countries to do all of the smelting and that type of thing. There was actually a television.
34:44 crew that was over there that videotaped the gold bars and drilled core samples that were analyzed in Tokyo to establish the fingerprints because evidently with core samples of gold because golds are like gold has fingerprints of the quality and the different other aspects of it that allows them to narrow down to a very small area.
35:12 where that gold was mined at so they could today go back and find out where all that gold came from there there were gold buddhas that arrived for operation golden lily um and some of them so what they did the bigger buddhas that were casting gold some of the bigger ones weighed up to eight
35:46 And what they had done a long time ago, not in preparation for this, but just to hide wealth in China, they had covered the gold with plaster and decorated it and painted the faces white. And that was their disguise. Well, someone must have ratted them out because the first thing the Japanese did was start busting
36:16 the Buddhas and chipping off the plaster to find out if there was gold inside. And some of the bigger ones were so big that when they got them to the Philippines in order to put them in the cave structures that they were building with slave labor, one of the people suggested that they cut them up, but they thought that would be really bad juju. So they didn't want to cut them up. So they basically figured out this rolling system to be able to put them on a barge.
36:46 and use bulldozers in order to lift them into the river and basically sell them down and then use this lift system of like rolling pipes to put them on to roll them over and then just drop them down into holes. That's how big and monstrous these things were. And they were all solid gold.
37:16 Decades later, the biggest one that they ever did that with was discovered when they were putting in a housing project by accident. And Kuala Lumpur had golden lily vaults at the bank of Nagara packed with 24 karat gold bars, six kilos each.
37:51 Let's see. Tell us how many they had. Several tons of it. Said it was packed full. And they basically used that to get access to rubber and tin on the plantations that were being grown there. And they didn't.
38:26 They originally was trading commodities, but eventually they figure out that it's better to trade worthless paper. And we'll get to that in a second. Kind of like they do now. See, the whole Fed is based on this. Wait till you read this or you hear it. In 1942, 43 and 44, Prince Chichibu and his staff spent the dry season in the Philippines and then basically.
38:55 Because of the torrential rain, they couldn't do anything. Chichibu was known to have tuberculosis. And so he could not stay in the Philippines during the rainy season. It was too difficult for him. And he was personally identified later because of the tuberculosis issue, because he would cough up blood into his handkerchief. And the young boy that was the person that was hired by Chichibu's brother to be the, like,
39:27 Butler, identified him initially by the blood in the handkerchief, but then later was provided a picture, which he was able to ID him by the picture as well. So the Japanese assaults on the governments, the bankers, and the citizens were in some of the areas without warning. The Japanese invaded the Philippines while
39:55 Americans were waiting on the State Department and requesting that their wives and children be allowed to go home. The State Department refused to allow that to happen. Doesn't that sound familiar? So they all were captured as prisoners for years, four years in a concentration camp because your government knew this was coming because it had already happened all around you.
40:26 and they did not evacuate you so the dutch that were on all of these islands and there were a lot on these islands couldn't go home to the netherlands because it was occupied by nazis so many of them fled to australia and their government actually tried to help them after initially telling them also to stay put um i've read several
41:06 other books that talk about the Dutch that were stranded there and that technically they didn't have a government. So let me just clarify that. They had a government in exile and the government in exile was in London and they were telling them originally, no, you need to kind of hold out. I honestly think that some people not in the know didn't think it was going to get as bad as it was.
41:33 going to get. So many colonial government officials were caught napping when, like the Philippine President Manuel Cozon, an intimate friend of General Douglas MacArthur, was vacationing in a mountain resort when he received a phone call on December 8th informing him that the Pacific War had started.
42:07 MacArthur himself was caught with his military aircraft parked on an open field on Clark Air Base, where nearly all of the other planes were destroyed by Japanese bombers from Taiwan. The Japanese landing in Liangon Gulf the next day. So on December 22nd, the Japanese landed. The next day, MacArthur.
42:37 declared Manila an open city and withdrew to Bataan and Corregidor. Boats carried munitions, food, and medicines to that island. MacArthur ordered his G2, Colonel Charles Willoughby, and we're going to talk a lot about him because he's a disgusting rat, also to move the contents of the Philippine National Treasury and Philippine Central Bank's private deposits.
43:06 from the National City Bank and the contents of 23 safes. Those safes would later be used by the Japanese to hide their gold in and actually take them into the corridors of these tunnel systems that they're going to build to hide all of Golden Lily's treasure. So basically, MacArthur clears out all of the Philippines' gold, silver,
43:40 treasury notes, undeclared bonds, precious gems, and treasury certificates. Gold alone at that point mounted to $40 million in the National City Bank. Held on private deposits, two metric tons of gold along with gems, currency, and precious metal was in the safety deposit box. It took four days to move all of this stuff using Navy tugboats and small yachts.
44:08 Willoughby's wife helped inventory all of it, and the treasure was stored in the Corregidor tunnel system. Exactly 1,430 tons of silver pesos were placed in the tunnel system. Two tons of private gold were stored inside the stockade, 51 tons of government gold, along with security deposits.
44:39 were placed in the Navy tunnel. And 115 tons of silver coins was dumped into the bay, which as it turns out, wasn't all of that odd. The Japanese sunk a lot of ships only with plans to come back because they annotated where they did this at. And then they had plans to come back and dig it up.
45:10 In 1942, the USS Trout, which was a submarine, arrived with a cargo load of ammunitions, food, and medical supplies, and the skipper wanted weight to put back on. So MacArthur loads the submarine up with a bunch of that gold and treasure. And the Trout continued.
45:39 patrol sinking two Japanese vessels before heading back to Pearl Harbor, where the gold was handed over to the San Francisco Mint. So when the island fell that MacArthur was on, they didn't try to hide any of that gold in that tunnel system. They didn't try to seal it up, nothing. The Japanese got it all. And as each country was overran, tens of thousands of colonials were then trapped.
46:10 They were ordered to take only a small suitcase and they were sent to internment camps. And that Tempeite, the group that kind of runs things after the army clears out, seized all of their property and all of their houses. They stripped, they took pianos, paintings, light fixtures, kitchen appliances, flush toilets, sinks, clothing, food stock.
46:41 Copper wiring, lead pipes, all ripped from the houses. Jewelry, candlesticks, tableware, picture frames, all placed in oil drums and stored either to have them melted down or shipped back to Japan. Even hardwood floors were torn out. Doors were taken. That's the complete looting.
47:09 of every place they went. And they did this everywhere. The Philippines, in the Philippines, Carlos Romulo, who later served as the Filipino ambassador to the UN, told how this was done on the island of Lete. Their army trucks came door to door and soldiers entered the house, taking everything that might be of use, throwing everything else out the windows and then setting it on fire.
47:41 Their loot was taking on ships to leave the Philippines and go to Japan. Japanese soldiers moved through the upper class and middle class neighborhoods, kidnapping pretty wives, daughters, taking them to hotels for the army and navy officers of the Japanese military to use. Other mothers and daughters were raped repeatedly, many times being drugged, serving up to 50 men a day.
48:11 They offered to return kidnapped family members in exchange for hidden treasure or securities and information about neighbors and family. So basically they were using them for blackmail. At hospitals, nurses were sought as mistresses for the Japanese officers. Poor families with no assets, their wives and daughters were herded into brothels for non-commissioned officers and ordinary soldiers.
48:35 The Dutch colonials had hurriedly sold homes on some of these islands and emptied their bank accounts and basically buried them in their backyard. However, the servants retrieved them and then the Japanese stole them from the servants. So some of them were trying to take passenger ships to Australia and the Japanese were
49:06 busily trying to sink them on their way there so this was just heinous on every level and this is going to matter when you realize what our government did in working with this government after all of these atrocities that's why i want you to know every single one of them and what your government did um as a result and they knew all of this occurred so
49:35 Like the British in Malaya and Burma, the Dutch had holiday homes up in mountainous areas. And so they all fled there. Oh, there's Nat. They all fled there thinking that they would be overlooked. Well, they weren't. The Japanese went up there, took all their stuff too. So at this point, there's panic setting in everywhere that they realize they're not going to be able to keep any of this stuff.
50:06 Banks called in bearer bonds, listed numbers, sent the list to their home countries and destroyed the bonds. Serial numbers. So let me just clarify that. In most of these areas, they had been colonized by other countries. The Dutch had colonized a lot of this area. So had the Brits. And they had banks from their country in these locations. And so they had their own.
50:35 currency and gold and stuff like that in these banks. So those particular country banks on these islands that the Japanese are just rolling through hurriedly tried to take the actual valuables and get them off the island. And if they couldn't get them off the island, they were writing down
51:01 the serial numbers of the certificates like treasury notes and stuff like that and then actually burning the notes themselves so the japanese couldn't get them and then use them as legal tender so when time ran out smaller denominations were burned without even listing the numbers malaya had 104 million dollars in bonds
51:25 that were processed in its way. In Singapore, 4 million in privately owned jewels and small valuables were received by government agents and shipped to Australia. After noting serial numbers, Singapore banks burned 75 million in currency and shipped another 39 million to India. When the Japanese marched in, they brought a bunch of officials from the Yokohama Species Bank and Bank of Taiwan.
51:55 which was a Japanese government bank. They sequestered all bank operations. From the Yokohama Species Bank, they worked in territories under army control from the Bank of Taiwan in areas under navy control. So Taiwanese bankers could speak Mandarin, Cantonese, and like three other variations of languages.
52:23 They were assigned to monitor Chinese owned banks and pawn shops. Earnest officials made desperate efforts to hide and destroy government tax ledgers, property ledgers, and internal banking records. But the Japanese would torture bureaucrats and bank managers to reveal secret account information, open safes and vaults, and turn over hidden keys.
52:47 They provided tax rolls and ledgers and identified wealthy local residents for fleecing because what they did was they captured the clerks of the banks and then they basically kidnapped their families. They threatened them. It's like the Phoenix program in Vietnam later on. That's exactly what they do. They kidnap people and they torture them, wanting them to confess on other people, you know, kind of like the FBI does.
53:17 In Singapore, all foreign bank holdings were confiscated. March 8th, managing directors of 42 of the commercial banks in the Dutch East Indies were forced to hand over the contents of their vaults. And that would have been like in Indonesia and Malaysia and those areas and Java. And basically they took over all the pawn shops. So you have the Bank of Japan, the Bank of Taiwan,
53:48 Mitsu Bank, and Kanaan Bank, K-A-N-A-N, led by Yamahata Sherihito, a senior Bank of Japan officer who served as a comptroller to the Office of Alien Property, which was basically Operation Golden Lily. So everything was turned over to Prince Chichibu, Golden Lily Organization for Inventory and Shipment to Japan. Mid-level banks
54:17 employees were herded into internment camps and escorted to work every day. And if they didn't do what they were supposed to do, these contempt people tortured them. So one of the Dutch journalists there had investigated many of the accounts of the Japanese. He was actually born in one of the internment camps and went back later to examine
54:49 the monetary aspect of all of this. And they basically said that while one of Harry Hito's brothers, a prince, visited their internment camp, that the guy that was in charge of one of the banks was taken and basically beaten so bad that he died.
55:17 And that's what he remembers observing as a little kid. Japanese ordered far more gold than, sorry, recovered far more gold than they thought ever possible. Also platinum and other areas. They had no idea just how rich all of these areas were because they all lived modestly.
55:44 inheritance, if you will, or their wealth had been gotten over a thousand years. And they basically kept it, they were very distrustful of banks and they kept it hidden in their personal belongings. So the Japanese quickly reactivated many of the mines in the area. So like Java had gold mines, Philippines had gold mines.
56:18 The auspices of the Japanese, these gold mines turned out as much as five times the amount of gold under the direction of Japan because they were using slave labor. They had a limitless supply of slaves to do whatever they wanted and work until they died. So in the case of Sumatra, their gold production went up tenfold.
56:48 to 400 kilos per year so whenever possible it was simpler um to so what they did was in in some of the areas they would um the best way to describe this so some of the companies um initially they kind of got over this but initially they didn't want to be accused of using slave labor
57:16 And so what they would do is they would give the person script, which is fake. It's like our money. It's fake money. It's worthless. And so in some of the later islands that they invaded, they bought houses with the script money and they would buy goods with the script money. But the money was fake.
57:45 And they had no intentions of ever exchanging that money back. It was just another way to formalize stealing. So in the case that, in one particular case, they had a bank issue it. And then they had the military.
58:13 reissue it like they were exchanging it, but they really like half the value of it of an already worthless piece of currency. So this is probably how they figured out how to do the dollar. I'm only half joking. So Hong Kong was occupied. It's homes, hotels, businesses, real estate, artworks, antique, everything was confiscated.
58:44 They basically did the same thing there. They issued this script. So the rickshaw pullers was also paid in script, which they did a lot for the pretending like they were paying these people. And if they did not act appreciative, they would just slice their head off. So, and they made you pay a stipends of your script allowance.
59:22 as a luxury tax, not joking. And some of the people that they had working in higher jobs, like the bank people for them and accounting for all of this stuff, they made them pay out of their script allowance $300 for the privilege of driving a car. So the whole thing was just ridiculous. It was all just a rouge to say after the fact that.
59:51 They didn't have slaves when in fact they had slaves. So this guy, Joseph grew G R E W. As far as I'm concerned, he's a crook. I did a little digging on him. He was the ambassador in Tokyo from 1932 until the invasion. So I want to make sure all of y'all understand this forever. Our ambassadors have basically been.
1:00:24 spies right so they have they had spies even before the CIA so before World War II so you have the Japanese army deploy Japan is an island okay they have consoles even back then in all of the major cities you empty the cities
1:00:57 of every man from the age of 18 to 30 to go to mankuria korea philippines malaysia i i named them all for you okay so let's go back and look at this real quick because this is an important point and why this guy should have been shot when he came back thailand shanghai malaysia burma
1:01:25 Sumatra, Hong Kong, Wake Island, Guam, Philippines, Indonesia, Java, and the ones that are roaming around on ships attacking the U.S. Those people are all gone from Japan. And no one noticed. Right? Because this was all going on simultaneously. There were some islands that were invaded.
1:01:57 But they were already training to do it. So these people were already in the military. So you take the majority of your entire male population under the age of 30 or 35 and you have stuck them in the military and training and your ambassador doesn't know. And not only that, there were so much other stuff going on at the time.
1:02:33 I just saw myself. There's a delay rolling my eyes. I'm going to move on. It's just ridiculous to think that they didn't know. There's no way they didn't know. And oh, by the way, he got to come home right away. He wasn't stuck in an internment camp for four years. No, no, no, no, no. He got to come back in 1942.
1:03:10 Once this new territory was under the Japanese control, they, let's see. Yeah, some of that's talking about the script. I'm not going to go back over that. I think y'all understand. They just issued a bunch of fake money. The Japanese sold rations like rice, cigarettes, sugar, salt at very high prices. That's why I'm saying that money was absolutely worthless.
1:03:42 When the treasure was sorted by Golden Lily, the gold, platinum, gemstones artwork were created and shipped first to Manila. And then basically it was kind of separated as to what that was going to go back to Japan to the imperial household and what was going to be left in and buried.
1:04:06 in the Philippines. So what was interesting is the confiscated stock bonds, gold bearer certificates were channeled to Yokohama Specie Bank and the Bank of Taiwan, which was owned by the Japanese. The single biggest shareholder in the Yokohama Specie Bank was Emperor Erihito. He owned 22% of that bank. Consequently, the Imperial Household Agency controlled the bank's shareholders meetings.
1:04:36 At the end of the war, it was established that Harry Hito had over $100 million, which is the equivalent of over a billion dollars today, in gold and foreign currencies in Switzerland, South America, Portugal, Spain, and the Vatican. Now, I want y'all to just, for your Gladio people, I want you to think about that for a second. We know Switzerland helped.
1:05:04 Germany, right? So they weren't neutral. South America is where all the Nazis went. Portugal was under a fascist dictator. Spain was under a fascist dictator. And we know the Vatican is going to be used and just created in 1942. Oh, look at the coincidence of that. 1942 is when all of this shit's happening and they're mopping up all the gold.
1:05:35 sending it and making deals with the Vatican. And that Vatican created their bank in 1942. I'm sure that's a coincidence. So near the end of the war, Yokohama Specie Bank discovered that it had not correctly balanced its books and owed a significant sum to the banks in the conquered territories. The overdraft was cleared by paying those banks in their worthless script.
1:06:04 So basically they stole from the banks too, which we already know they did. Nazi Germany typically laundered looted gold and non-monetary gold by re-smelting it and casting it into bars, which was the Black Eagle Fund because they stamped swastikas on them. This gold was moved to Switzerland, Sweden, Portugal, and Argentina. See, it's all the same players every time.
1:06:35 So Japan used the same techniques of moving their gold through the Swiss banks, to Portuguese banks, to Macau, to Chile, and to Argentina. So I wonder if that's why they overthrew all of those countries. Were they still in the gold in all of those countries? Huh. So at the center of the world's unofficial gold trade, Macau was enriched. And that's a very interesting thing because we know that Macau,
1:07:09 is like kind of Las Vegas of the Southeast Asia area. And for some reason, it was treated very differently. The Allies got together in Bretton Woods Conference in 1944, this is at the end of the war, to stop the laundering of Nazi and Japanese war loot through neutral countries. Portugal somehow forgot to include Macau.
1:07:39 on the list. And no one drew attention to this because they all knew this was how they were going to launder the money. Macau merchants would soon be buying gold abroad at $35 an ounce from banks, shipping it back to the enclave and selling it at a premium to whoever wanted to buy it. The syndicate was led by a guy by the name of Hou Yin, Y-I-N, an overseas Chinese who had fled
1:08:09 from Guangdong to sit out the war. Macau was a wartime haven for rich overseas Chinese who enlarged their fortunes by precious metal trading. The only significant source of gold at the time was Japanese plunder. They kind of cornered the market on it. In the China seas, only Japanese banks were open for business. Macau pawn shops
1:08:38 Brokers and private citizens made fortunes turning hard currency into gold for the Japanese. When colonial authorities returned, Macau millionaires were able to use the colonial currency they had acquired to buy more desirable land, buildings and factories at knockdown prices. So they basically are doing what.
1:09:00 the international syndicate, as I call it, do in all of the countries that after World War II, the CIA went in and couped. So the CIA is just basically taking over what the Japanese did during the war after the war. Hirohito's personal wealth was laundered through Macau. The rest through Swiss bank accounts in Tokyo. And that journalist that had went over to Japan had a chance to review some of Hirohito's...
1:09:29 financial records at the end of the war, which showed custody of U.S. occupations authority, or when that was in the custody of U.S. occupation authorities. So he saw the emperor's personal assets that began to be moved around to neutral havens in 1943, preparing for the inevitable defeat. So they actually had a meeting in Japan of the banks and the emperor's financial advisors. Funds were transferred from Tokyo to Switzerland.
1:10:00 emptying Hirohito's cash reserves in Tokyo, Nazi gold, which had been moved to the Swiss accounts in the Yamahato Specie Bank to pay for the purchases from Japan. They also were transferred to Hirohito's accounts in Switzerland. This guy moved, his financial advisor moved other imperial gold reserves to Argentina by submarine. And Macau...
1:10:29 sold hard currency, and the money was then moved to Switzerland by bank transfer. Perieto had $20 million in Swiss bank accounts, the U.S. $35 million in South American banks, and another $45 million U.S. in Portugal, Spain, and the Vatican. When most of the stolen treasures reached Japan, it made its way into private vaults of the imperial family.
1:11:00 Let me check our time. Basically, the overseas Chinese got, at the end of the day, probably a fairly good deal as well by the raping and pillaging of mainland China. And let's see.
1:11:32 As Japan tried to take over and monopolize oil, sugar, rice, salt and other commodities away from the overseas Chinese, many of those markets collapsed. So the overseas Chinese became very special targets for Japan because they were kind of aggravated that they were able to make bank on stuff that Japan was doing. So they begrudged anybody getting anything except for them.
1:12:03 So a Colonel Wannabe Wataru spent 10 years in North China developing techniques such as kidnapping members of the Chinese families, amputating body parts. He was especially effective when he threatened to castrate older sons. Wannabe was credited with bringing in large quantities of gold, gemstones, and artworks in China.
1:12:32 He beheaded one of the, or he headed, sorry, one of the special services agencies whose duty it was for espionage of Malaysia's overseas Chinese. The China, he knew that the China was especially obedient, but they were very crafty and hard to control. So his technique was, let's see.
1:13:07 Get down to it. He would take all male Chinese on the island of Singapore as an example because he did all kinds of crap. But I skipped over some of them. I just want to give you a flavor and not all of the details because it's really gross. They took all the Chinese males on the island of Singapore between the ages of 18 and 50 and put them in five different locations.
1:13:40 hoods on informers like the Phoenix program. And then they would march these people by. And if one of the informers nodded that that person was a bad person, that person that got informed on was tortured and killed. Sometimes the executions lasted for days.
1:14:09 Some were shot, bayoneted, beheaded. Over 20,000 were roped together on barges and taken out into the sea lanes. And they were forced overboard. And if they didn't drown fast enough, they used machine guns on them. So this was viewed as ethnic cleansing. And another 40,000 were slain, including women, children, and babies. Mass executions of Chinese happened elsewhere.
1:14:38 And this was not an unusual occurrence. They came up with all kinds of demoralizing ways to murder people, to instill submissiveness in them, which I believe we're at the beginning measures of here in this country, which is what January 6th was all about. And it starts with a little bit, and that's what people don't understand. You think that...
1:15:06 The little things doesn't matter when you realize how long this has been going on and the gradual increase of what has been going on. It's actually frightening, which is exactly what they want you to be as scared. While Sumatra had Royal Dutch Shell oil fields, Malaysia, greatest thing was rubber producing. And this is where they began using the script to try to buy these.
1:15:38 commodities, and then basically screw the people out of them. And you also had, at this point, 140 allied POWs, half a million Western civilians from the Dutch, the US, and everybody else, and a million overseas Chinese interned people in labor camps. And so a million Chinese, 140 Western POWs.
1:16:08 Half a million, or no, excuse me, half a million, 500,000 Western civilians and 140 POWs, like military. So what is that? 1.6 million people as slave labor and all anybody talks about is Europe. And every one of these people were treated as bad, if not worse.
1:16:39 when it comes to torture, when it comes to extermination, when it comes to working people to death, yet you never hear about the Japanese theater. Why is that? And I'm going to make the argument through this entire book that the reason that is, is because of Operation Golden Lily and the fact that they had this gold and they didn't want anybody, if they talked about the Pacific theater.
1:17:08 the gold would eventually be discovered. So this information was hidden forever. The local population in Indonesia of 4 million people were pressed into slave labor battalions and worked to death on distant lands. Yeah, they didn't just work them in their own home country. They escorted them around. Some 225,000 were set to work on a railroad between Siam and Burma.
1:17:44 And when they died, they just put them in the backfill for the embankments of the railroad. In Malaysia, 1944, all males between the age of 15 and 40 was sent off for labor camps if they didn't have a critical job at home. Korea says they lost 6 million to slave labor. I love that 6 million number. Many were sent.
1:18:15 out on slave ships to go to the Philippines and elsewhere. Many went to work in mines. A total of 16 million were used as slaves in slave labor. Koreans were given slightly preferential treatment as slaves because they were a colony versus the Chinese or Westerners.
1:18:49 Many were taken to Taiwan. The Chinese especially were taken to Taiwan to dig the tunnel systems to create golden lily vaults. And most of them died while they were there or they were murdered when the particular vault that they dug was finished because they didn't want anybody surviving to tell anybody where it was at. The Japanese biggest corporations that use slave labor.
1:19:18 is Mitsu, M-I-T-S-U-I, still exists. Kawasaki, Mitsubishi, Nippon, N-I-P-P-O-N, steel. Showa, S-H-O-W-A. And Mitsubishi alone's market position at the end of the war in 1945, if you were to take the...
1:19:53 size of the company as far as the domestic value of it, Mitsubishi alone, not the rest of them, just that one company, it equaled U.S. Steel, General Motors, Standard Oil, Alcoa, Douglas Aircraft, DuPont, Westinghouse, AT&T, National City Bank, Woolworth,
1:20:23 Hilton Hotels all combined. And John Foster Dulles at the peace settlement in California after World War II made the statement that Japanese were broke. So no slave laborer ever received a dime from Japan. The death rate of American POWs in the Japanese internment camps was 30%.
1:20:58 The Nazi internment camp extermination rate was 4%. Yet those people were compensated that survived, but not the ones in the ones that had the most cruelest 30% death rate. Those people didn't get a dime. And to make all that worse for the very few people that did survive, there's a thing called Berry Berry. And it's...
1:21:33 a horrible death. It's basically drowning. It's a lack of vitamin B1. And we know that Asia has a shit ton of rice, right? There's white rice that is actually more complicated to make and brown rice, which is cheaper to make. The Japanese internment camp administration purposely served
1:22:03 Those interned in these camps that were being worked to death, white rice, so that they had a B1 deficiency and died of beriberi, as opposed to the cheaper alternative of brown rice. And they did it on purpose to torture these people. That's how hideous these people are. Thousands of POWs were taken to Japan on hell ships, sealed in cargo holds,
1:22:37 10 to 20% of them would die before they reached Japan. Ships carrying POWs were supposed to be marked so they were not attacked. Japan didn't mark a single one of them. We sunk at least, let's see, 16 with our own people, killing at least 17,000 people, never knowing it. So bad.
1:23:18 So the remaining little bit of the chapter talks about the size of the companies that were involved and basically some of the stuff that they manufactured. I don't think that's necessarily relevant for, so I'm not going to go into a lot of those details. But it did talk a little bit about the conditions. For example, at Nippon Steel and Mitsuzu Mines, they worked.
1:23:49 10-hour days, seven days a week, malnourished, no dysentery at all, jaundice, burberry, scurvy, all kinds of crap. They got beat, and very few people survived that was working in the actual mines. One 20-year-old seaman, second class from North Dakota, was taken to Japan in a hell ship belonging to Michu.
1:24:18 and worked as a slave in a coal mine. At 6'4", he weighed only 95 pounds, living on seaweed soup. He ate charcoal to stay alive. He was worked at a coal face deep in the ground. A large rock fell on his leg and snapped the brittle bone. There was another American POW, Dr. Thomas Hewlett. He improvised with two sharpened
1:24:49 bicycle spokes one to my knee and one to my ankle it didn't work eventually I got gangrene since I had no medical supplies we had to do what is called a guillotine operation with a hacksaw blade and knives and four guys holding me down that's the kind of battlefield medicine you used they put maggots inside the bandage so that it would pull out all of the infection
1:25:18 And that man saved my life and my leg, or the rest of my leg, I should say. When the war ended, Bigelow and other POWs were taken to Guam. They were browbeaten by U.S. military intelligence officers and forced to sign papers promising not to tell anyone about their terrible experiences. We were told to sign papers and to keep our mouth shut. And I am putting that politely.
1:25:45 For some reason, both Washington and Tokyo wanted no one talking about their experience as POWs. Japan's slave program was another one of them was comfort women. Young girls, not even 13 years old, were stolen and put in sexual slavery. After the war, Tokyo insisted all comfort women were merely prostitutes who had volunteered for the work.
1:26:12 The entire operation was ran by a private enterprise. Both statements are just, let's see, beginning in 1904 in Korea, that Hemp Pae Tae took full charge of organized prostitution for the Japanese armed forces. They had been doing this for decades before the war even started. In 1932,
1:26:39 The military brothels, once they got into Manchuria, they created military brothels that had 10 barracks, each divided into 10 rooms, plus a supervisor's hut, where they had barbed wire to keep the women inside. Rural brothels were done in tents. Railway cars were set up as mobile brothels. Korean and Japan had brutal security at these brothels.
1:27:09 And the fees were based on the ethnic origin of the women, girls. Japanese girls cost the most. Korean, Okinawan, Chinese, Southeast Asian, later Caucasians were added. Commissioned officers paid whatever. I mean, the money is irrelevant because this book was written a while ago. And of course, it's money from World War II.
1:27:37 They kept forms from each women listing what they had earned and the number of clients. Up to 200,000 young women and adolescent girls were forced into sexual slavery to serve more than 3.5 million Japanese soldiers, each expected to have at least 15 partners a day. Theoretically, they received 800 whatever yen a month minus cost of food, clothing, medical care, soap, and water, and many girls were illiterate.
1:28:06 So they could have easily been cheated. The extreme secrecy to this day surrounding Japanese treatment of POWs, civilian slaves, and comfort women were prevented from knowing any of the important details. However, among files captured by the British Royal Marines in 1945 are revealing documents that were written by a commander of a camp for POWs in Taiwan.
1:28:32 The commander had just received instructions dated August 1st, 1944 from the chief of staff of the 11th unit of Formosa, POW security number 10. In emergency, he is instructed to deal with his prisoners in the following way, quote, whether they are destroyed individually or in groups or however it is done with mass bombing, poisonous smoke, drowning, decapitation or what.
1:29:02 It is the aim not to allow the escape of a single one to annihilate them all and not to leave any traces, unquote. That concludes that chapter. So that's what we were dealing with. That's what our government sold us out for. And they did it for the gold.
1:29:32 And the next chapter, we're going to start into the actual gold part. But it is important to understand the frame of reference that we're working in the complete depravity of these people before we move on to the next step. So with that, I'm going to call it a night because in 30 minutes, I'm going to be on Badland Sit Rep. So hope to see y'all there.
1:30:00 I don't want to monopolize your whole night. But basically, if you know of anybody that's new to Operation Gladio, we're going to kind of do a Gladio 101 tonight. It's basically my first time talking about Gladio on Badlands. I know the ghost of Patrick Henry has talked. He's had a couple of shows about the subject. But.
1:30:29 I'm going to lend my expertise to it. So I'll just put it that way. And we did touch on it a little bit at the end of my SITREP appearance two weeks ago, but it's such a big topic, especially with the release of that new video of Matt Gates, that I think people are getting more interested into it. So if you know of anybody that's new to it and they kind of want an introduction, please send them our way. We'll be on in about 30 minutes. Thanks for being here.
1:30:57 And I will see you on Sunday evening at seven.
