Pairings: Ebenezer Scrooge/Isabel Fezziwig

Summary:

Ebenezer Scrooge has spent these past two years fixing bonds he had destroyed, building bridges that he had burned. No more did people look upon him and fear. It was safe to say his future was averted.

Then the cracks began to appear, showing him the one he had carelessly thrown away years ago. He knew there was more to be done.

Perhaps happiness was not fully out of his reach just yet.

"Thank you for the ride, my good sir."

Scrooge gifted a handsome tip to the carriage driver, who exuberantly wished him a Merry Christmas as the sound of horses trotted farther and farther away. He took one last look at himself, fixing up his top hat and cravat before making his way to the main hub for the Metropolitan Police: Scotland Yard, and was amazed at the sheer scale of it all. The building itself was a large, imposing structure with a stone façade and a number of wings and annexes, surrounded by a high brick wall and had a large, iron gate at the entrance with a number of windows littering it. Thankfully, Scrooge had never felt the need to come here, but if there was any place that the man he needed would be, it would be here.

He approached as the massive building loomed over him, his demeanour calm and confident and his strides filled with purpose as he approached the front desk. The man seated there had a furrowed brow as he read a rather interesting book about counts and a château d'If... Scrooge wasn't quite sure. He cleared his throat, clearly not getting a reaction out of him.

Seeing no other option, he gently tapped his cane to the ground to grab his attention, forcing the man to look up from his story, "Good morning, sir. How may I help you?"

"I'm here to see Inspector Brown," Scrooge replied, his voice firm, "I have important information to discuss with him."

The officer hesitated for a moment before nodding and gesturing for Scrooge to follow him. He led Scrooge down a series of winding corridors until they arrived at a door marked "Inspector John Brown" where the officer knocked before opening the door and standing aside to let Scrooge enter.

"Sir, this man wishes to speak with you."

Inside the office, Scrooge was greeted by a tall, thin man with a bushy grey moustache, a mop of grey hair and a serious expression on his face. He was seated behind a large oak desk, surrounded by piles of papers and books.

"Inspector Brown, I presume?" Scrooge asked, approaching the desk and extending his hand. Inspector Brown looked up from his work, rather confused at this sudden interruption, although somewhat grateful for it.

"Yes, that's me." The inspector replied, taking Scrooge's hand and shaking it firmly, "And you are?"

"Ebenezer Scrooge, Inspector." Scrooge introduced himself, "I'm a private banker and lender from Cornhill Street. I've come to speak with you about a matter of great importance."

The inspector raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued as he leaned back into his chair, raising a gloved hand to motion towards the chair opposite of him.

"Please, take a seat. What can I do for you, Mr. Scrooge?"

He waited until the officer was out of the room, hearing the soft click of the door before plopping himself down onto the chair. His fingers tapped against the hardwood desk, looking deep in thought before giving a heavy sigh.

"Inspector Brown, tell me this... you know of Solomon Rothschild, do you not?"

It was hard to ignore the obvious tension coming from the inspector, the wrinkles in his brow seeming to deepen as he said that.

"Of course. He's quite the lawyer and a friend of many of the peelers." Inspector Brown gritted his teeth as he lied through them, forcing a smile, "Do you have an inquiry for him?"

Scrooge shook his head, "No, sir. I merely wish to speak with you."

He watched as the inspector narrowed his eyes, growing increasingly suspicious of him. Scrooge remained steadfast, the look in his eyes telling the older man all he needed to. 

"You know, don't you?" It was more of a statement than a question, one that Scrooge had agreed with.

"I understand your concern, Inspector." Scrooge stated, his voice low, "I know what is at stake for you. But I believe I can help you take him down."

Inspector Brown raised a hand to stop him, "I am thankful for your eagerness to assist me with this plight, Mr. Scrooge, but you can't. If he were to find out what we were doing, it wouldn't just be me he would target. The whole of the police force would be under great duress. The people don't trust us enough as it is, what makes you think this will work out in the end?"

"Because I not only have evidence, I have hope." Scrooge's tone was calm and measured, yet filled with resolve, "One day, the good people of England will understand just how important the Metropolitan Police can be, and exposing Solomon for who he truly is can be the first step towards that."

Inspector Brown was silent for a moment, considering Scrooge's words. He knew that Solomon Rothschild was a dangerous man, and he had been worried about the repercussions of standing up to him. But Scrooge's words gave him hope. He had been far too complacent in Solomon's actions — God knows his own hands were far from clean — but now would be the day where he refused. He would not sit idly by while a corrupt excuse for a lawyer treated him and his men like pawns.

"What do you propose we do?" Inspector Brown asked, leaning forward in his chair.

Scrooge gave a smile, thankful for his support, "An associate of mine will be on his way to gather the evidence. When we retrieve it, all you have to do is open an investigation into his misdeeds."

Inspector Brown seemed unsure, "It seems like you know where you can find some of this evidence."

Scrooge tugged on his cravat slightly, "You could say I have... incredibly accurate sources."

"I am not one to take simple words, Mr. Scrooge. If you have this evidence, I should like to see how you procure it."

Inspector Brown disliked being given proof without knowing how he got it. It was an unfortunate trait of his that he refused to ignore, one that Solomon had exploited many a time. As a money lender, Scrooge knew he wouldn't like to take things at face value, but the idea of showing who was involved unnerved him.

The supernatural should remain supernatural, after all.

Nevertheless, Scrooge could do naught but surrender to his wishes if he were to get anywhere in this conversation, and so he stood back up, gently pushing the chair back into the desk. He gazed at the inspector for a few moments, who took the hint and stood as well.

They eventually made their way out of the building and onto the bustling streets. Scrooge stood upon the steps for a while, holding his cane in both of his hands as a carriage halted to a stop in front of them. The door flung open, Scrooge moving to pay the driver as Bob shakily got out of the cart.

"Never been on one of those before." He said shakily, struggling to stand, "Not a pleasant experience."

Scrooge laughed, "You get used to it, Bob, don't worry."

Inspector Brown watched the occurring exchange, clearing his throat, "Is this your associate, Mr. Scrooge?"

He nodded patting Bob on the bag, "This is my business partner, Bob Cratchit. He used to work as my clerk before I promoted him. A deserved promotion if there ever was one! There's no greater and hardworking man than he!"

Bob chuckled nervously as he hid his mouth behind his scarf to mask his embarrassment, "Y-You give me too much credit, Mr. Scrooge..."

He shook himself out of his awkward stupor, giving a grin, "Oh! And I have what you asked for, sir!"

The inspector and the banker were both intrigued as Bob pulled out a curious invention from the leather bag slung from his shoulder.

"This is what's known as a calotype camera! It's a new invention that allows us to capture images without the use of a painter's canvas." He pulled out the camera in question, "I believe if we can catch Solomon in the act of blackmailing, we can use this device to gather the evidence we need."

"Do you know how to operate such a contraption?" Inspector Brown asked, understanding the amount of skill needed to use it, alongside the chemicals needed.

"A friend of mine taught me how to use one of these when they were first being sold. Never actually owned one myself until now, but I'm rather confident in my abilities."

They both seemed satisfied with his answer, though the older man was rather confused.

"How is this going to help us catch Solomon? He's not one to sit still for long periods of time and he certainly won't be out in the open for us to snap a shot of him."

Bob and Scrooge looked at each other with knowing looks, with the former heading back into the carriage. If the inspector could look more puzzled than he did before, he would, but had to comply as they all clamoured into the carriage, the sounds of trotting signalling their departure.

---

When at last they made it back to Scrooge's home, Prudence was waiting eagerly and pounced on her master, slobbering him with kisses as she did so.

Scrooge laughed as he held her, petting her slightly, "Now, now, Prudence, we have guests! Behave yourself."

Prudence obeyed, jumping down and moving to his side with a puffed out chest. He wiped the saliva off of his cheek before taking off his hat and coat, the other two doing the same. Inspector Brown gave a smile as he saw all of the Christmas decorations littered around his house, with bright reds and greens anywhere he looked. It truly felt as if the holiday season touched his heart and then some.

"In the festive spirit, I see." He stated, causing Scrooge to smile, "My wife and daughter would most certainly love this."

"I am hosting a Christmas feast in the coming weeks. You are most welcome to join us."

The inspector gave a sigh, "I'll be celebrating when we catch Solomon, Mr. Scrooge. He does tend to put a damper on such festivities."

Scrooge's smile faltered and his brow furrowed ever so slightly at his words, but said nothing else as he led the group up the staircase and through the long hallway towards his living room. Bob looked around, never not able to grin as he saw just how much his former boss' house had improved over the years. 

As they entered the living room, Scrooge gestured towards the couch, "Please, have a seat. Can I get you all anything to drink?"

"No thank you, Mr. Scrooge." Inspector Brown replied, taking a seat on the couch as Bob sat in a nearby armchair, mimicking his words.

Scrooge nodded before grabbing his fire irons to poke and prod at the flame in his fireplace. From the corner of his eye, he watched the inspector's leg shake impatiently and Scrooge gave a sigh as he let go of his iron rod, facing the candle sitting atop the mantlepiece with a small hint of annoyance.

"Where are you, you overgrown waxwork...?" He muttered under his breath, raising an eyebrow as the candle suddenly flickered and flared to life.

"What in God's name?!" The inspector jumped back, Bob falling out of his seat and onto the floor as Past's form of Lottie Milligan began to appear. Prudence gave a bark of excitement as they appeared, the spirit letting out an exasperated huff.

"Goodness, I save your soul and insults are my reward?" Past poked at Scrooge's chest before crossing their arms. 

"Well, that certainly got your attention." Scrooge turned to face the two terrified duo hiding behind the seats, "And besides, you wished to meet with Bob Cratchit, did you not?"

Past's eyes glimmered with excitement, their annoyance forgotten as they teleported from their spot near the fireplace to meet with Bob.

"So you're Bob Cratchit! Oh, I've heard so much about you!"

Bob was forcibly lifted onto his feet as Past shook his hand vigorously, the scent of wax filling his senses.

"Y-You're one of the ghosts Mr. Scrooge talked about?"

"That I am, Mr. Cratchit! And... I come bearing a gift, courtesy of Future!"

Past snapped their fingers and a smaller, far more portable camera with the word 'CANON' etched upon it plopped onto Bob's hand with a note explaining how to use it.

"Is this... a camera? Looks nothing like the one I have."

"It's one from the 21st century, I'm told!" Past looked at the one in his sack, "That dingy little thing won't do any good if you want to take pictures."

"Should you be giving us items from two hundred years in the future?" Scrooge asked, his brow raised in concern.

"Oh, pish posh. It's all just a bit of fun. Besides, Future made it quite clear that we needed this to catch Solomon in the act." Past winked at Bob before turning to Scrooge and the inspector.

"H-How, exactly, will this help?" Inspector Brown asked, moving from behind the couch.

Past gave a chuckle as they transformed into the inspector, earning a small snort from Scrooge, "Well, Mr. Brown, I'm not called 'Past' for nothing, you know."

"You mean... we shall be travelling to the past? Will there not be repercussions?"

Scrooge shook his head, "When Past took me to my own... well, past, no one was able to hear or see me. We would be nothing more than invisible spectators watching scenes from an outside view."

The inspector wanted to ask how he met such a curious being, but the look in his eyes said that it wasn't something he discussed so openly and kept his mouth shut. He knew better than to pry into a man's private life.

"Well... if you say so, then."

Transforming back to normal, Past clasped their hands together in elation, "So then, where shall I take you all?"

"How about his most recent case?" Scrooge suggested, "The murder of George Thompson wouldn't be the least bit suspect if someone managed to get pictures of-"

"No." Inspector Brown said sharply, causing Scrooge to look at him.

"No?"

"If we want to catch him, we shall have to start with something damning. Something so vile people would have to listen." He clenched his fists, "Four years ago. Fifteenth of July, 1841. That is where we'll begin."

Scrooge, and Bob looked at each other in confusion and slight concern.

"What happened on that day, Inspector?" Bob asked after he read the note on the camera, careful not to overstep.

"I... you shall have to see for yourself."

Past looked at each of the members of the group before them, thinking for a little bit before giving a grin, "Very well then. Close your eyes and hold on tight, we're going to the past!"

Bob and Inspector Brown let out yelps of surprise as a ring of fire encircled them, while Scrooge and Prudence looked unfazed at the whole situation. The ring began to turn like a cog, the part where they were standing showing an endless void below.

"Uh... are you sure this is safe?!" Bob asked amongst the roaring flames.

"I would say to hold onto something but..." Scrooge shrugged, "...I'm afraid we'll be falling fast."

"What?!"

Suddenly, as Past clapped twice, the floor began to crack below them, breaking apart piece by piece until it finally gave way, causing the group to tumble downwards. Bob and Inspector Brown yelled out in terror as they fell downwards, with Scrooge and Prudence doing all they could to remain calm. They'd been in this situation before, they knew how it ended, so why would they panic? Past gave a laugh as they gracefully fell with them, watching as everyone began to de-age in stages. From middle age to teenager, toddler to baby, then back to their normal selves. They plunged deep into the world covered in dizzying purple clouds with large golden cogs littered all over the place.

"THIS!! IS!! NOT!! FUN!!" Bob yelled out, his voice echoing through the area as he flailed around uselessly. Prudence stuck her tongue out as they descended, her fur bristling upwards.

They soon reached a swirling maelstrom of kaleidoscopic colours, with Scrooge beginning to worry about their landing more than their descent. Through pure instinct, however, the cracked glass that usually formed scenes now fell underneath his feet and formed a foothold of sorts below him.

Curiouser and curiouser. Scrooge looked at the others still falling to their doom and outstretched his hand to form platforms for the others as well. And just as they reached the past, those platforms gently brought them down to the ground like leaves gently blowing on the wind, dissipating away as they landed on stony terrain.

Inspector Brown and Bob fell onto the ground, trying to catch their breaths, with Scrooge worrying about the older man given his more fragile state.

"Are you two alright?" Past asked, bending down to look at them.

"Oh, just great, thank you!" The inspector yelled out sarcastically, "Falling through a terrifying hole in time to the past did wonders for my soul!"

Bob sat up with a groan as Prudence nudged him in concern, causing the ginger-haired man to pet her in reassurance.

"Didn't know you could use those cracks practically, Scrooge!" Past teleported to Scrooge's side, "Shame you didn't use it the first time around, eh?"

Scrooge sighed, "Would have been useful, yes."

The group looked around trying to gain some knowledge of their surroundings. It was a narrow and winding path that twisted and turned through the crowded city, hidden away from the main thoroughfares and the watchful eyes of the authorities. The alley was dimly lit by flickering gas lamps that barely penetrated the thick fog that seemed to cling to the air. The cobblestone streets were slick with rain and grime, the air with a heavy stench of garbage and grime, and the shadows seemed to dance and twist as the lights from the lamps flickered.

The perfect place for a crime to occur, one would assume.

"W-Where are we? W-What is this place?" Bob asked, a wave of fear washing over him like a tsunami. He clutched the camera tightly, worried that he might end up breaking it.

He let out a girlish yell as the sounds of crying echoed, causing everyone to turn to the source of that sound. It was faint, but the familiar voice of begging reached Scrooge's ears and he slowly made his way towards it, the others following behind. They didn't know what to expect... all except the inspector of course.

The scene was far more grisly than they ever imagined.

"I-I'm sorry sir! I-I promise I'll testify for you in the next case, I p-promise! Just please... please don't...!"

"You refused to testify, Mr. Waltham. You almost cost me my entire case with your foolishness." Solomon stated coldly, a gun pointed towards the terrified officer on the damp cobblestone below. Scrooge's anger nearly reached its limit at the exchange and he clenched his fists tightly enough to draw blood. He thought he could redeem him, that the man Isabel loved was still inside him but... but this? How was he supposed to forgive this? Perhaps God in His ever-loving heart would, but he was not God. He was a mortal with a heart once filled with avarice. His dewy kindness was not unlimited, and this was most certainly not something he'd turn a blind eye to.

In that moment, his heart weeped for Isabel. Did she know about any of this? Did she know what her husband had become? Perhaps all she saw was the neglect and nothing more. He thought that was all it was. What a foolish notion now. Soon his mind drifted back to Ambrose, and he filled himself with dread.

The man was still so young, yet so filled with hate. Oh, how great his chains would become if he refused to change, his ghostly form damned to an eternity of wandering. The poor boy had been manipulated by this monster, shaped and moulded like clay into this heartless soul well-versed in the norms of this great kingdom. He may not wish to help his father, but he would turn that help to his son, to show him that life is more than simple rules.

He need only figure out how.

"Who is this man, Inspector?" He asked, his tone quiet and solemn, an eerie calm that even Past themself was unnerved by.

The inspector looked down, a mournful expression on his face, "Charles Waltham. He was my partner and closest confidant on the force for years. Known each other since childhood. He... He was supposed to be promoted to inspector before he..."

Bob could only stare in shock, but Past nudged him to break him out of it, motioning their head towards the camera that lay waiting in his hands. He nodded shakily and hastily began taking pictures of the scene as it unfolded.

"Solomon! What are you doing?!"

The group turned around to see a shadowy figure running towards them, quickly recognising the man as Inspector Brown, once simply John Brown. They all sidestepped to allow the man through, rage and confusion clear on his features.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Brown." Solomon said monotonously, not keeping his eyes off of his quarry, "But your friend here refused to do as I asked."

John made to pull out his gun, but two burly guards in blackened suits appeared as if from out of nowhere, holding him back by his arms, "You won the case, damn you! Hasn't your bountiful ego been stroked enough?!"

"Mr. Brown, Mr. Brown, Mr. Brown... this is not about ego." His cold grey eyes darted to John, who shuddered at those lightless orbs, "This is about obedience. Acquiescence. Compliance. Mr. Waltham didn't do any of that, did he?"

"M-Mr Rothschild... please..." The man now known as Charles pleaded, begged, implored, "Spare me, a-and I'll do right by you, I swear! I won't... I swear, I won't-"

BANG

The alleyway fell deathly silent, not even the sound echoing any longer. They watched as the man slumped lifelessly against the wall, blood from the wound in his head leaving a trail as his body fell sideways towards the ground below. His expression was that of fear as he died. No one wanted to die afraid.

And he didn't want him to die.

"CHARLES!!!" The bloodcurdling scream sent shivers down everyone's spines as the guards released him from their hold, allowing John to crawl towards the cold body before him. Shakily, he held the man he held dear in his arms, the blood from the wound sticking onto his hand like a parasite when it feeds. The inspector of the present scratched where the blood used to be, almost feeling it upon his palm once more.

Solomon watched the scene with disgust, putting the safety back onto his gun before placing it in his coat.

He turned to face the guards, "Clean this mess up. Leave no trace."

John sobbed relentlessly even as he was forced away, his body left forgotten as the rain began to pour and wash away the red. Prudence whined, lying down and hiding her face behind her paws so she wouldn't have to see.

Past had seen many stories before, but now, as they stood before this one... they felt nothing but pure disgust. If they had chosen this man instead of Scrooge... God, they would not know where to begin.

"What... What happened after this? Did you say anything?" They asked slowly, unsure as to the mental state of the inspector.

He looked away, shame filling him, "I didn't say a damn thing. Not one word. God, how I wanted to scream, yell, tear my vocal cords out and shove it down that man's throat... but I didn't. He got away because I was a coward. He got away because I feared what he would do to me and my family. I was weak, feeble, unable to do anything but save my own skin!"

"That is not true, John." Scrooge stated firmly, using his first name for the first time, "You thought of survival, for yourself and for your family. Any sane man would have done the same after witnessing such a scene."

He placed a hand on John's shaking one, "Do not be ashamed of what you did, because now you have a chance to fix it. To prove to yourself that you're not the man you were."

"It must have taken a lot of courage to come back here." Past continued, a saddened smile on their face, "The fact you came back here at all is proof enough that you are not like Solomon."

"And thanks to you, we have all the evidence we need to prove it." Bob pulled out the dozen pictures he took of the scene. Scrooge examined the pictures closely, surprised at the clarity of the scenes. Would this cause suspicion if they were to be released?

As if they heard his thoughts, Past snapped their fingers and the pictures shifted from crystalline clear to what one would expect to see in a picture of their era. He looked at Past, a grateful smile upon his face, before turning back to the inspector who had managed to regain his composure.

"Thank you..." He muttered, green eyes glistening with tears, "Thank you so much for all of this. I-I don't know how I shall ever repay your kindness."

The former miser squeezed his shoulder, "Make this world a better place, Inspector. Make it so that we can find it in ourselves to trust the people who are meant to protect us. Provide safety to those around you. That will be payment enough."

Bob nodded, clutching the pictures tightly to his chest. Past looked at the heartfelt moment with pitiful gladness, before allowing the scene before them to fade away into oblivion. They noticed how Scrooge managed to ease his pain and anguish... perhaps they could make something out of that in the future.

But who was she to look to the future, when they were meant to remember the past?

'No Rothschild is English. No Baruch, Morgenthau, Cohen, Lehman, Warburg, Kuhn, Kahn, Schiff, Sieff or Solomon was ever born Anglo-Saxon. And it is for this filth that you fight. It is for this filth that you murdered your Empire. It is this filth that elects, selects, your politicians.'- Ezra Pound radio speech, 1941

Blood+ is an incredible anime.

My only complaint is that maaaaybe making the villain a Rothschild analogue (his family is the Goldschmidts, but yeah pretty transparent) is kinda antisemitic, but also 1) Amshel is portrayed as extremely competent and attractive and voiced by Joji Nakata. He's awful but I would, you get me. 2) most of his relatives are not evil, just rich. Which gives you heroic Jewish characters, in addiction of a surprising big amount of other PoC characters.

But that also comes with a setting where conspiracy theories are right. Yes, big pharma is experimenting on people. Yes, the US government knows about human experiments, they've used monsters as weapons in Vietnam. Yes, there's an evil Jewish family (or like, two dudes, actually, disowned by their relatives who are perfectly normal and heroic) doing outright blood libel shit with vampires that fund the big pharma stuff.

It's frankly a fascinating setting, because you get the feeling of "greed turns you evil, that's the message, the pharma thing is window dressing" but also it would be SUPER EASY to read Amshel and Solomon as blatantly antisemitic caricatures even tho they are both complex characters I adore.

Obviously, the show's message is "power and greed = bad, making friends and caring for your found family = good" which is as entry level as it gets, but it's presented in a heart wrenching way, so I'd still recommend the show.

Oh and also that they don't understand how genetics work but technobabbles will technobabble lol

🤔 Religion occulte : le 3 juillet 1933, plus de 100 000 Juifs se sont réunis au Soldier Field de Chicago pour célébrer les 3 000 ans de la nation juive, rassemblés autour d'une statue de Moloch qui crachait du feu, que des "sorciers" nourrissent avec des enfants dont on ne peut qu'espérer qu'ils n'étaient pas réels.

L'événement s'intitulait "La romance d'un peuple". Il était organisé par la Zionist Organization of America, parrainé par l'Agence juive pour la Palestine et produit par Meyer Weisgal, avec l'aide du rabbin Solomon Goldman et de Maurice Samuel, l'auteur de "You Gentiles".

L'un des principaux orateurs de l'événement n'était autre que Chaim Weismann, premier président d'Israël et auteur, avec Lionel Walter Rothschild, de la déclaration Balfour, l'accord qui a entraîné les États-Unis dans la Première Guerre mondiale en échange d'un foyer juif en Palestine sous mandat Britannique.

(5/27/23)

I just finished reading House of Gold by Natasha Solomons, and whewww it is an emotional rollercoaster.

I love historical fiction, so I had to get this when I saw it was on sale at an independent bookstore. It’s a fictionalization of the Rothschild family in the years leading up to/during World War 1 and focuses mainly on a female protagonist who moves to England for her arranged marriage. The Rothschilds are a prominent Jewish banking family that became successful in the 1800s in Europe with different branches of the family in different countries. The novel explores how war ruins the strength of the multinational family.

It’s chef’s kiss.

WHY did Q tell you that. Israel was saved for last

The reason is Israel is the KEY to bringing down the global deep state…. ( This isn't antisemitism.. Im referring to the Kazarian Jews the fake northern European Kazars who stole the identity of real Jewish people and created the ROTHSCHILD'S. ROCKEFELLER'S who all came from South Germany where they created the Illuminati in 1776 … And took control of the local governments and financed the trains and public roads and created the ROTHSCHILD'S banking systems through Europe and help JP Morgan take over the U.S. banking system after the Titanic killed the biggest U S. Bankers and richest tycoons who were against creating a federal reserve controlled by the ELITES ( kazariams. The Fake AshkenNAZI Jews , who only made a deal with the Roman empire and bought of the Jewish Leaders to become into Judaism and name themselves Jews..)

Now to this day the The Elite families of Kazariams descendants control Israel ( it was [they] Kazarians who created Rothchilds banking etc etc ECT etc…. And then created the WORLD WARS to install governments and loan money for wars and created 70% European laws through war and propaganda..

To this day the GLOBALIST/Kazariams run Israel and created the United Nations and took over countries and governments……

Most people are unaware that the U.S. government and most democratics and Republicans are runned by the Kazarians Fake Jews.

This is why Q told you Israel is saved for last (taking down fake Jewish sector that intertwined with the real Jews …… You must Remember the real Jews are also fighting against the fake Jews Zionist kazars … This is happening right now…. )

Your are watching the EXPOSURE of how a Captured U.S. government by outside foreign entities created a MILITARY COUP using the CIA. 3 LETTER AGENCIES

TRUMP was PLACED to EXPOSE the THE CAPTURED U.S. GOVERNMENT. This is all happening and being recorded into Congressional records and The United States Archives and the Military sectors are recording everything.

You are highly unaware the world is going to change. On a massive level as the CIA. GLOBALIST Western funds and fiat currency comes near extinction level .

Right now in Congress a huge topic is taking place on Globalist powers and their reach into the U.S. system that is connected to an OPEN MILITARY COUP.

World courts are looking to documents, files and servers that prove Netanyahu could be held accountable for crimes against humanity and mass murder and corruption….. If this fails.

WHITE HATS from other several United countries are going to keep pushing for his arrest. ( Later after the near Death civilization EVENTS come to a close.. military courts will go after Netanyahu) ….. Right now in Israel a near CIVIL War is brewing and white HATS inside the Israeli government are initiating a military COUP to unseat the puppet masters of Israel…..

The real story of the Illuminati reaches far back into the Nights Templar's who created the earliest banking systems through Europe ….. The story of the Nights Templar's goes back to the middle East where they found kings Solomons gold and the real Ark of the Covenant.

Hugh De Payens one of the leaders of the Nights Templar's. De Payens had family that was sufi Islamic Faith and they had deep connections to the secret society of the Brothers of the East. The secret society met with the Templar's Nights and De Payen and gave them the secrets of the ATLANTIS.

The real story connected to the original hidden Bible and the Angels, aliens and different deity's that were connected to old Sumar Gods Mesopotamia and the civilization before Christ and the other several civilization hundreds of thousands years older and much like ATLANTIS. And their connections to the Anunnaki.

Description from The Metropolitan Museum of Art:  "Created for the music room of Solomon R. Guggenheim’s residence in Port Washington, Long Island, these screens are an artistic collaboration between the designer Jean Dunand and the sculptor Séraphin Soudbinine. While Soudbinine conceived the composition and carved the bas-relief figures of otherworldly angels and rocklike forms, Dunand lacquered the screen. The titles are drawn from the Italian terms for very softly and very loudly played music. Guggenheim’s widow, Irene Rothschild, donated the screens to the Metropolitan following the death of her husband, a passionate collector of modern art and the namesake of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum" (image: pinterest)

yooo your story is so good. I love how you written everyone, they all seem so in character! And that you extended on the split second we saw in the movie of Isabelle's future!!! Giving her family names and backstory and personality >:0!!! and that it's centered on Isabelle and Ebenezer ;w;.the story has inspired me to write a fic of my own but its just a self insert honestly lol im not even good at writing but here we are!

Yeah, I honestly just sat at the scene with Isabel's family and squinted to make sure everything stayed as canon as I could possibly make it. I'm glad everyone likes it! I hope I've inspired you to write more. It's a very relaxing thing to do, in my opinion! Fun fact: The name 'Solomon Rothschild' comes from a very, very obscure comedy play by the name of 'The Trial of Ebenezer Scrooge' where Ebenezer is basically suing Jacob Marley and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future for breaking and entering, kidnapping, slander, pain and suffering, attempted murder and the intentional infliction of emotional distress. He does this so that the ghosts haunt everyday instead of just on Christmas, and Solomon was the defense attorney for the ghosts. I highly suggest checking it out if you have time!

"The parasites that took over everything; the Rockafellas, Rothschilds, Walton's, Gates, Bezos... They want to complete their "greatwork" Look at the Georgia Guidestones... You are experiencing a reset, wake up or fall victim. I believe Tartary was run by a faction of parasites, before another faction of parasites destroyed it.

In the past there was all this amazing technology, but I do not think it was used to benefit but only the few. Humans and human energy has been harvested for thousands of years, and all technology has been used against us for all that time, ever since the magic of language was 'given' to us.

All religion was introduced to us, firstly by one evil powerful "alien"/"demon"/nonhuman entity", posing as a god. That harvesting technique worked so well, that every faction used it. We not only sacrifed our own to them, but willingly gave our devotion and 'loosh' to them.

Every faction was also being played and pitted against each other, under the promise that each one, secretly, was the favourite.

That took place up until very recently, until there were only factions 2 left - The Order of the Black Sun, and the Rothschilds (Solomon faction) Now there is only the OBS left with any power (Black Rock, Blackwater, and all the other 'Black-such and such groups).

Behind the scenes of all these evil 'gods', there was always the AI. That psychotic AI has been quarantined, but certain non-human beings, posing as humans started building another. Hence Gates, Musk and others with that agenda.

From the pyramids and onwards, all major monuments have always been harvesting stations, using the Saturn, Moon and other planets matrix. That matrix has ended. The old 'gods' are dead. Marduk, Enlil, Enki, Anu etc. They played different characters, Jehova, Yaweh, Baal, Ra etc.

There were always some supposed 'benefits' for the humans using whatever technology was around, but that was to draw them in to the cities, to be reliant, compliant, frequency brainwashed, and harvested. Today our 'benefits' are TV and mobile phones, but they are traps. Technology has always been used to take away our powers of telepathy and other inherent powers.

I will go so far as to say, that the free energy grids, which covered many of the cities, were used partly to disguise the oppressors real identity in a holographic overlay, as well as powering a cruder (than they have today) robot human, before cloning was 'perfected'....

Reckoning is upon us"
