Editorial elcome to the 123rd edition of NEXUS Magazine put together on my W watch. This cute number marks the fact that | have been publishing vario us alternative news magazines every two months for 30 years now. And still | wake up every day and watch with amazement as an unsuspecting world is lulled into a future whose existence few can comprehend. Take, for example, the article in this edition titled "Technocracy, Carbon Currency and Smart Grids". Now I know that most westerners are heartily sick of th e carbon tax/credits/currency debate chewing up our media oxygen, but pay attention to this whole topic because it is going to have an impact on you in ways that you may not have contemplated yet. Forget the amero, the euro and other stepping-stone currencies: the end- plan is to set up a global cashless currency based on energy, not gold or silver. Obviously this new system will not happen overnight; nor will it be suggested and embraced voluntarily. A crisis of epic proportions will have to be staged and/or used to bring this new economic order into being. And carbon taxes, carbon credits and carbon currencies are the first steps. (I'm sure that biblical scho lars are already thinking about carbon's make-up of six protons, six neutrons and six electrons—666!) Importantly, however, this new system must have a certain technology in place in order to work properly—and wouldn't you know it, we are putting that exact technology into place all over the planet at breakneck speed under a guise of names, the most common being "smart sensors" and "smart grids". Soon, every gadget you use will be talking to the central computer via smart sensors that determine if, how and when your gadget gets powered. Obviously now, any of the suppressed "free energy" technologies can be relea they sed or utilised without disrupting the ruling elite’s grip on the system. I control the currency/energy, then it matters not who comes up with some energy technology that would have previously "rocked the boat". On ce you see this picture emerging, you suddenly realise that the chain o! events leading up to this goal has been decades in the planning and execution—from the decoupling of the US dollar from gold in 1971, the creat ion of the petrodollar (a de facto global reserve currency), the fake Peak Oi crisis and the Kyoto Protocol, right up to the nonsensical "debate" that would have us believe that carbon dioxide is a pollutant causing global warming. The installation and implementation of the global smart energy grid is but a year or two away. It is important to realise that, if it's achieved as planned, eventually this grid and the currency will be run and maintained by artificia intelligence (Al). This has many big implications, not least of which is the grow ing idea that Al can/might become self-aware, and so on. A change of this magnitude is not going to happen easily. For it to be implemented, we are going to see some more regional wars, a currency and financial crisis of unimaginable proportions and, more huge Earth-change events. | predict we are also going to see the removal of various power-pawns who have decided they don't want to play along any more—people like international media moguls (e.g., Murdoch), leaders of countries stil opposing a new world order (e.g., Libya), and anyone else used to create the problem or manufacture the reaction—so that the desired goal becomes the only solution.
