	Karen Hudes is a graduate of Yale Law 
	School and she worked in the legal department of
	
	the World Bank for more than 20 years.
	
	 
	
	In fact, when she was fired for blowing the 
	whistle on corruption inside the World Bank, she held the position of Senior 
	Counsel. She was in a unique position to see exactly how
	the 
	global elite rule the world, and the information that she is now 
	revealing to the public is absolutely stunning. 
	 
	
	According to Hudes, the elite use a very tight 
	core of financial institutions and mega-corporations to dominate the planet.
	
	 
	
	The goal is control. They want all of us 
	enslaved to debt, they want all of our governments enslaved to debt, and 
	they want all of our politicians addicted to the huge financial 
	contributions that they funnel into their campaigns. 
	 
	
	Since the elite also own all of the big media 
	companies, the mainstream media never lets us in on the secret that there is 
	something fundamentally wrong with the way that our system works.
	 
	
	Remember, this is not some "conspiracy theorist" 
	that is saying these things. This is a Yale-educated attorney that worked 
	inside the World Bank for more than two decades. 
	 
	
	The following summary of her credentials comes directly 
	from her website...
	
		
		Karen Hudes studied law at Yale Law School 
		and economics at the University of Amsterdam. She worked in the US 
		Export Import Bank of the US from 1980-1985 and in the Legal Department 
		of the World Bank from 1986-2007. 
		 
		
		She established the Non Governmental 
		Organization Committee of the International Law Section of the American 
		Bar Association and the Committee on Multilateralism and the 
		Accountability of International Organizations of the American Branch of 
		the International Law Association.
	
	
	Today, Hudes is trying very hard to expose the 
	corrupt financial system that the global elite are using to control the 
	wealth of the world. 
	 
	
	During
	
	an interview with the New American, she 
	discussed how we are willingly allowing this group of elitists to totally 
	dominate the resources of the planet...
	
		
		A former insider at the World Bank, 
		ex-Senior Counsel Karen Hudes, says the global financial system is 
		dominated by a small group of corrupt, power-hungry figures centered 
		around the privately owned U.S. 
		Federal Reserve. 
		 
		
		The network has seized 
		
		control of the media 
		to cover up its crimes, too, she explained.
		
		 
		
		In an interview with The 
		New American, Hudes said that when she tried to blow the whistle on 
		multiple problems at the World Bank, she was fired for her efforts.
		
		 
		
		Now, along with a network of fellow 
		whistleblowers, Hudes is determined to expose and end the corruption. 
		And she is confident of success.
		 
		
		Citing an
		explosive 2011 Swiss study published in 
		the PLOS ONE journal on "The 
		Network of Global Corporate Control,"  Hudes pointed out that a small group of entities - mostly 
		financial institutions and especially central banks - exert a massive 
		amount of influence over the international economy from behind the 
		scenes. 
		
			
			"What is really going on is that the 
			world's resources are being dominated by this group,"  she explained, 
			adding that the "corrupt power grabbers"  have managed to dominate 
			the media as well. 
			 
			
			"They're being allowed to do it." 
		
	
	
	Previously,
	
	I have written about the Swiss study that Hudes mentioned. 
	
	 
	
	It was 
	conducted by a team of researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of 
	Technology in Zurich, Switzerland. 
	 
	
	They studied the relationships between 37 
	million companies and investors worldwide, and what they discovered is that 
	there is a "super-entity" of just 147 very tightly knit mega-corporations 
	that controls 40 
	percent of the entire global economy...
	
		
		When the team further untangled the web of 
		ownership, it found much of it tracked back to a "super-entity" of 147 
		even more tightly knit companies - all of their ownership was held by 
		other members of the super-entity - that controlled 40 per cent of the 
		total wealth in the network. 
		
			
			"In effect, less than 1 per cent of the 
			companies were able to control 40 per cent of the entire network," 
			says Glattfelder. 
		
		
		Most were financial institutions. 
		
		 
		
		The top 20 
			included Barclays Bank, JPMorgan Chase & Co, and The Goldman Sachs 
			Group.
	
	
	But the global elite don't just control these 
	mega-corporations. 
	 
	
	According to Hudes, they also dominate the 
	unelected, unaccountable organizations that control the finances of 
	virtually every nation on the face of the planet. The 
	
	World Bank, the IMF 
	and 'central banks' such as
	
	the Federal Reserve literally control the 
	creation and the flow of money worldwide.
	 
	
	At the apex of this system is the 
	
	Bank for 
	International Settlements. 
	
	 
	
	It is the central bank of central banks, and 
	posted below is a video where you can watch Hudes tell Greg Hunter of 
	USAWatchdog.com the following...
	
		
		"We don't have to wait for anybody to fire 
		the Fed or Bank for International Settlements... some states have 
		already started to recognize silver and gold, the precious metals, as 
		currency"
	
	 
	 
	
	 
	 
	 
	
	Most people have never even heard of the  
	Bank for International 
	Settlements, but it is an extremely important 
	organization. 
	 
	
	In a
	
	previous article, I described how this "central bank of the world" is 
	literally immune to the laws of all national governments...
	
		
		An immensely powerful international 
		organization that most people have never even heard of secretly controls 
		the money supply of the entire globe. It is called the Bank for 
		International Settlements, and it is the central bank of central banks.
		
		 
		
		It is located in Basel, Switzerland, but it 
		also has branches in Hong Kong and Mexico City. It is essentially an 
		unelected, unaccountable central bank of the world that has complete 
		immunity from taxation and from national laws. 
		 
		
		Even Wikipedia admits that "it 
		is not accountable to any single national government."  
		 
		
		The Bank for International Settlements was 
		used to launder money for the Nazis during World War II, but these days 
		the main purpose of the BIS is to guide and direct the centrally-planned 
		global financial system. 
		 
		
		Today, 58 global central banks belong to the 
		BIS, and it has far more power over how the U.S. economy (or any other 
		economy for that matter) will perform over the course of the next year 
		than any politician does. 
		 
		
		Every two months, the central bankers of the 
		world gather in Basel for another "Global Economy Meeting". 
		 
		
		During those meetings, decisions are made 
		which affect every man, woman and child on the planet, and yet none of 
		us have any say in what goes on. 
		 
		
		The Bank for International Settlements is an 
		organization that was founded by the global elite and it operates for 
		the benefit of the global elite, and it is intended to be one of the key 
		cornerstones of the emerging one world economic system.
	
	
	This system did not come into being by 
	accident. 
	 
	
	In fact, the global elite have been developing 
	this system for a very long time. 
	 
	
	In a previous article entitled "Who 
	Runs The World? - Solid Proof That a Core Group of Wealthy Elitists is Pulling 
	The Strings", I included a quote from Georgetown University history 
	professor Carroll Quigley from a book that he authored all the way 
	back in 1966 (Tragedy 
	and Hope) in which he discussed the big plans that the elite had for the 
	Bank for International Settlements...
	
		
		[T]he powers of financial capitalism had 
		another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of 
		financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system 
		of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. 
		 
		
		This system was to be controlled in a 
		feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, 
		by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and 
		conferences. 
		 
		
		The apex of the system was to be the Bank 
		for International Settlements in Basle, Switzerland, a private bank 
		owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves 
		private corporations.
	
	
	And that is exactly what we have today.
	 
	
	We have a system of "neo-feudalism" in which all 
	of us and our national governments are
	
	enslaved to debt. This system is governed by the central banks and by 
	the Bank for International Settlements, and it systematically transfers the 
	wealth of the world out of our hands and into the hands of the global elite.
	 
	
	But most people have no idea that any of this is 
	happening because the global elite also control what we see, hear and think 
	about. 
	 
	
	Today, there are
	
	just six giant media corporations that control more than 90 percent of 
	the news and entertainment that you watch on your television in the United 
	States.
	 
	
	This is the insidious system that Karen Hudes is 
	seeking to expose.

	Hour interview her for an entire hour:
