US Federal Reserve Hacked by Anonymous

[flyboy56]

THE US Federal Reserve has confirmed its computer systems were accessed by hackers but said the incident did not affect the central bank's "critical operations".

The acknowledgement came days after the hacker group known as Anonymous claimed it had posted personal information of some 4,000 bankers, purportedly obtained from the Fed.

"The Federal Reserve System is aware that information was obtained by exploiting a temporary vulnerability in a website vendor product," a Federal Reserve spokesman said in a statement.

"The vulnerability was fixed shortly after discovery and is no longer an issue. This incident did not affect critical operations of the Federal Reserve System."

On Monday, an Anonymous-linked Twitter account called Operation Last Resort, claimed in a tweet to have obtained and posted "4k banker d0x via the FED".

Only time will tell how badly the Reserve was hacked.

We have a clause in Section 30 of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913

We have a clause in Section 30 of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 allowing the US to buy back the Federal Reserve Corporation for roughly $500 billion dollars any time we wish. We may also abolish the Federal Reserve Corporation, or repeal the act, our choice. The last provision of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, Sec. 30 states “the right to amend, alter or repeal this act is expressly reserved.” This language “means” that congress can at any time move to abolish the Federal Reserve System, or buy back the stock and make it part of the Treasury Department, or to alter the system as it sees fit.

On June 4, 1963, a little known attempt was made to strip the Federal Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the government at interest. On that day President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 11110 that returned to the U.S. government the power to issue currency, without going through the Federal Reserve. Mr. Kennedy's order gave the Treasury the power "to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury." This meant that for every ounce of silver in the U.S. Treasury's vault, the government could introduce new money into circulation. In all, Kennedy brought nearly $4.3 billion in U.S. notes into circulation. The ramifications of this bill are enormous.

With the stroke of a pen, Mr. Kennedy was on his way to putting the Federal Reserve Bank of New York out of business. If enough of these silver certificats were to come into circulation they would have eliminated the demand for Federal Reserve notes. This is because the silver certificates are backed by silver and the Federal Reserve notes are not backed by anything. Executive Order 11110 could have prevented the national debt from reaching its current level, because it would have given the government the ability to repay its debt without going to the Federal Reserve and being charged interest in order to create the new money. Executive Order 11110 gave the U.S. the ability to create its own money backed by silver.

After Mr. Kennedy was assassinated just five months later, no more silver certificates were issued. The Final Call has learned that the Executive Order was never repealed by any U.S. President through an Executive Order and is still valid. Why then has no president utilized it? Virtually all of the nearly $6 trillion in debt has been created since 1963, and if a U.S. president had utilized Executive Order 11110 the debt would be nowhere near the current level. Perhaps the assassination of JFK was a warning to future presidents who would think to eliminate the U.S. debt by eliminating the Federal Reserve's control over the creation of money. Mr. Kennedy challenged the government of money by challenging the two most successful vehicles that have ever been used to drive up debt - war and the creation of money by a privately-owned central bank. His efforts to have all troops out of Vietnam by 1965 and Executive Order 11110 would have severely cut into the profits and control of the New York banking establishment. As America's debt reaches unbearable levels , one is force to ask, will President Obama have the courage to consider utilizing Executive Order 11110 and, if so, is he willing to pay the ultimate price for doing so?

We have a solution, Houston!

The FED holds the $7 trillion dollar interest debt paid by the income tax and the social security debt of $10 trillion dollars for a total of $17 trillion dollars. Good purchase don’t you think? $500 billion to buy the company that holds the notes for our $17 trillion dollar debt? No more income tax, IRS, Federal debt, etc. The US treasury makes our money again, backed by gold and silver, and Americans now keep an extra 30 to 40 percent of their wages which will create the greatest economic boom in the history of the United States of America. Why doesn’t the government answer this question as to why they are fraudulently cheating Americans?

After seeing what happened to Lincoln and Kennedy, I doubt Obama has the fortitude.

Wow! I never thought o'that; in fact, according to this, I never thought.

An incredibly detailed yet tangential response to a simple query: are you my supervisor? Member of the JCS? SECDEF?

If anyone should have any doubt our country is being controlled by big money should look no further than the Federal Reserve. Other than congress appointing the chairman, the Federal Reserve answers only to it's investors just like any other private company.
