One Currency for South American Union

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva recently revealed that the South
American countries are planning for a common currency as part of the
integration of the individual countries into the Union of South American
Nations. This integration is patterned after the formation of the European
Union, and parallels the plan for the North American Union.

The union of South American nations would create a trade block designed to be
competitive with the European and North American trade blocks. Central to the
formation of the union is the creation of a central bank to oversee the new
common currency that would replace the currencies of the individual countries
in the block. In a recent broadcast, President Lula stated that he sees the
implementation of this plan as not being a fast one.
In his message, the president stressed the need to help the countries of South
America that are economically weak, such as Paraguay, Uruguay and Bolivia.
"We have to help them because the stronger the countries in South America
economically are, the more tranquility, peace, democracy, trade, companies,
jobs, incomes and development", he is quoted at

Another unfolding feature of the South American Union similar to that of the
North American Union is its dependence on newly created infrastructure. The
South American alliance will promote the cross-nation construction of
railroads, highways, bridges and transmission lines that will connect the
entire region resulting in smooth interaction and movement within the trading
block. The NAFTA and CAFTA Superhighways epitomize the infrastructural
development of the North American Union trading block.

The union plan also calls for a regional defense council, apparently the
beginning of the imposition of a regional government. This council would
resolve regional conflicts, promote military cooperation and allow for the
regional coordination of weapons production, much as the military integration
of Canada and the U.S. initiates the unification of governments in the North
American Countries.

The plan to establish a new common currency for the Union of South American
Nations is the latest development in the initiation of common currencies
representative of multi-country trading blocks. The euro was the first trade
block currency, established as part of the European Union. The amero is the
name of what may be the North American UnionÕs counterpart to the euro,
debuting after economic integration and homogenization of Mexico, the U.S. and
Canada have been completed, at exchange rates that represent the lowered
standard of living of the Americans and the Canadians.

Critics of the Union of South American NationsÕ efforts to establish a common
currency see it as playing right into the hands of the world banking cartel.
The clustering and assimilation of currencies facilitates the eventual merger
into a one world currency promoted by the Council on Foreign Relations and its
political puppets. They see the move toward the South American Union with its
single currency as easily fitting with the European Union and current efforts
to establish the North American Union. Once the formation of these major
trading blocks is completed, the next step would be the unification of the
blocks into a one world government.

This one world government is sometimes referred to as the New World Order. The
Council on Foreign Relations has openly stated that its intentions are to bring
about the surrender of the sovereignty of the national independence of the U.S.
with the aim of creating a one world government. The Council, referred to as
CFR, has influence in all vital areas of American life and around the world.
Members have run or are running the major media outlets including NBC, CBS, the
New York Times, the Washington Post, and many other publications.

CFR members dominate the political world. U.S. presidents since Franklin
Roosevelt have been CFR members, with the exception of Ronald Reagan. CFR
members also dominate the academic world, top corporations, unions and the
military. They are on the board of directors of the Federal Reserve. Barack
Obama and John McCain are CFR members, as well as the Bushes and the Clintons.
There are many corporate members of the CFR. CFR plans are not subject to the
scrutiny, debate, or vote of the people. Discussion of the plans has been
conspicuously absent from the endless debating of the presidential candidates.
