Then the people of Israel cried out to the Lord for help, for he had 900 chariots of iron and he oppressed the people of Israel cruelly for twenty years.

Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth; for the Lord has spoken: “Children have I reared and brought up, but they have rebelled against me. The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master's crib, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand.” Ah, sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, offspring of evildoers, children who deal corruptly!

The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. ...

So Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, to Piram king of Jarmuth, to Japhia king of Lachish, and to Debir king of Eglon, saying, “Come up to me and help me, and let us strike Gibeon.

31 They have built the high places of Topheth in the Valley of Ben Hinnom to burn their sons and daughters in the fire—something I did not command, nor did it enter my mind.

32 So beware, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when people will no longer call it Topheth or the Valley of Ben Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter, for they will bury the dead in Topheth until there is no more room.

33 Then the carcasses of this people will become food for the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one to frighten them away.

34 I will bring an end to the sounds of joy and gladness and to the voices of bride and bridegroom in the towns of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem, for the land will become desolate.

Are anti-Fed articles appearing in mainstream publications part of an extended program of tearing down the Fed in order to remake it as part of a global central bank?

Recently published anti-Fed arguments and their nearer-term motives  have been commented on with considerable accuracy by various alternative-media entities. These arguments are compellingly presented. But step back, please.

It is difficult to avoid concluding – if one examines events from the requisite altitude – that the current system will eventually give way to something more homogenized. Perhaps the IMF will take the lead, or perhaps the Fed and other powerful central banks will be more fully integrated under the supervision of the International Monetary Fund.

No matter the disasters of ever-larger bureaucratic, price-fixing entities, the solution is always seen to be even more centralization. The bigger the better: As if somehow technocratic corporatism and its affiliated bureaucracy are going to succeed when they finally accumulate enough power.

 Ordo ab chao …

And thus the tearing down proceeds apace. Does anyone really believe, for instance, that at the topmost level, people were not aware that posting an unmonitored Fed Facebook page would attract serious opposition (here)?

Is it some sort of secret that many are generally are disgusted with central banking and the Fed in particular? We are supposed to believe that an organization that can send $16 trillion around the world as it chooses (here) is incompetent about even the rudiments of public relations?

Before the big meeting at Jackson Hole that ends this weekend, (here)  prominent negative news has been featured regarding the Fed. The article regarding the Fed's Facebook trolls was posted at US News and World Report. But other anti-Fed articles have attracted attention.

John Hilsenrath recently posted an anti-Fed article at the Wall Street Journal (here). An excerpt:

Years of Fed Missteps Fueled Disillusion With the Economy and Washington … Once-revered, [the] central bank failed to foresee the crisis and has struggled in its aftermath, fostering the rise of populism and distrust of institutions.

And then there is the just-published – and biting – article by former Fed member Kevin Warsh ("The Federal Reserve Needs New Thinking"), also posted at The Wall Street Journal (here).

An excerpt from the conclusion:

As the dispenser of fault and favor, the Fed is contributing to the public perception of an unfair, inequitable economic system. Real reform this is not … If, as is more likely, the economy is closer to recession than resurgence, the Fed is poorly positioned to respond with force, efficacy and credibility.

The Fed is vulnerable. Its recent centennial as our nation's central bank should not be confused with its permanent acceptance in the American political system.

This is not normal rhetoric. It is provided by a senior member of the monetary establishment and presented in the nation's most prestigious business journal.

Perhaps in order to ensure our comprehension, a previously established-group is suddenly rising to prominence, "Fed Up."

Where is Fed Up being featured? Why in the Financial Times (here).

An excerpt:

'Fed Up' activists give message to Jackson Hole Central bank officials …

Federal Reserve officials on Thursday found their plans to tighten policy under assault from community activists, who accused them of compromising the interests of poorer citizens in a fight against an illusory threat of inflation.

In a meeting with the Fed Up coalition attended by 11 top US Fed officials on the eve of the Jackson Hole symposium, central bankers insisted they had no desire to halt the recovery but that they needed to act to prevent risky imbalances from emerging down the road.

There you have it, folks ?" the world's first thirsty water filter. We love it! The next steps for the researchers are partnering with manufacturers who can bring their modelled desalination technique to life. The first step will be testing, but they're confident their findings ?" which are published in Nature Communications ?" could be applied on an industrial scale for everybody's benefit.

This isn't that far removed from fecal transplants.

The sun never "rises" or "sets". The "law of perspective" makes it appear that the sun is going up at dawn or or going down dusk, but in reality it's just moving closer towards you or moving further away from you.

Why the banks don't pay taxes?

God is controlling all things. He is being merciful to you and me and everyone else by giving us a chance to repent and be on His side, before He controls the universe out of existence.

Sounds more like your God is brain dead. Creating things he can't control

Show me the paper.
You said a while ago that science works thru engineering nowadays.
That's true, but to prove the engineering, they have to write it down so other scientists can test it.
That is called a peer rewired paper.
 Show me the link to the paper where they prove it

So God didn't know that the great angel would turn into the devil
I thought he was omnipresent and knew everything

Again. Science have never proven a all mighty sky-daddy

So the loving Good made the devil, therefor he is responsible for all the evil in the world since he claims to be omnipresent and all knowing.
His message is pretty much. "worship me or I will torture you forever" what a loving God. Sounds like North Korea

Yup. the book fiction. Its crap. the God exist only in you nightmares. He is just as real as the easterbunny.

You can. Again read the bible.
The only sin that can condemn to hell is to denounce the holly spirit.
You can kill and rape all you want
And no I'm not going to help by quoting this time. read the damn book and maybe you will see the light
I have many times. That's why I'm an atheist

He is responsible if he claims to be all powerful and omnipresent and know everything and can stop things before they happen.
and if he isn't, what is the point?

Read the bible. The only thing you need to do to be a christian is to believe in the holly spirit.
You can be a killer, a rapist, whatever. As long as you believe you go to heaven.
The only sin that can send you to hell is to denounce the holly spirit.

Seriously, this coming out of your mouth....
