global mass resignations list 2012. rats and ships sinkings

This list chronicles all top level resignations since the start of 2012. Presented below are four categories:
  • Banking & Financing (includes insurance)
  • Government (includes public services)
  • Companies & Businesses
  • Arrests/probes/cases/etc.  
Info:
While it’s not unusual for a top level executive/politician/industry leader to resign, it IS highly suspect when a great number of them are resigning at the same time. All taking place in a very short amount of time as well. Also note how most of the resignations are taking place in the banking & financing world. Different sources are saying that these ‘mass resignations’ are indicative of a larger trend leading towards ‘mass arrests’ of criminal and corrupt elites which are soon to follow. For more detailed information on these occurrences, please head to the ‘about’ page.

muse mkultra.

The wavelength gently grows
Coercive notions re-evolve
A universe is trapped inside a tear
It resonates the core
Creates unnatural laws
Replaces love and happiness with fear

Oooo

How much deception can you take
How many lies will you create
How much longer until you break
Your mind's about to fall

And they're breaking through
They're breaking through
They're breaking through
We are losing control

They're breaking through
They're breaking through
They're breaking through
Now we're falling
We are losing control

Invisible to all
The mind becomes a wall
All of history deleted with one stroke

Oooo

How much deception can you take
How many lies will you create
How much longer until you break
Your mind's about to fall

And they're breaking through
They're breaking through
They're breaking through
Now we're falling
We are losing control
