Eurodollar maybe?
I started to reply to the recent Amero thread, but felt this deserved it's own.
I have heard some rumblings about something called the "EuroDollar" as well. We all know about the NAU/Amero, but are many of you are not as aware of the Transatlantic Economic Integration Agreement signed by Merkel, Boroso, and Bush, in violation of Article 2 Section 2.
Framework for Advancing Transatlantic Economic Integration Between the United States of America and the European Union
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/04/20070430-4.html
I believe this agreement is also tied to the Transatlantic Policy Network. Pls look at their "Agenda" page.
http://tpnonline.org/agenda.html
"• strengthen the institutional structure for ongoing transatlantic political dialogue, building on the evolving Transatlantic Legislators Dialogue (TLD) between Members of the European Parliament and the US Congress , possibly into a Transatlantic Assembly."
Sounds to me like they want to create a new congress that would have authority over our congress and the EU parliament. Also look at their members page. Look at the list of corporations that are members. I work for Boeing and I have shown people this on the factory floor. Your company might be a member too!

Lastly, I know that the father of the NAU, Dr. Robert Pastor who wrote the document "Building a North American Community" recently admitted defeat regarding the SPP agenda.

In closing, the primary point I am trying to make is this: Stop having Amero/NAU tunnel vision. Yes, I know it is real. Yes, I know this feigned defeat could be a ruse. However, while this movement is so concerned with the Amero/NAU agenda, we have been woefully irresponsible regarding the US/EU merger and the Eurodollar, which predates the NAU/SPP/Amero agenda. This is at least a 2 pronged attack upon our sovereignty, and I am calling for everyone to educate themselves on this as well. Besides, we are already experts on NAU/Amero. Let's cover our flanks as well.

Any time I see
that little French weasel Nicolas Sarkozy I get the creeps. He creeps me out. The same goes for GWB and his minions. All together in the same room, it can't be good.
We should all be speaking up for a World Money Standard
Gold grams and Silver Ounces.
With debt-based currency, if everyone were to repay his debts there would be no money!
With asset-based money, if everyone were to repay his debts there would still be the same amount of money in circulation for commerce.
There is a world of difference between the two, and hardly anybody understands the difference.

AWESOME POST.
thanks for sharing and keep sharing what you find out.
Good points
Atm, they are discussing a new Bretton-Woods, or shall we call it a new "Britain-Woods"? In any case, this makes me wonder that if they are in the process of creating some new currency, be it global or regional, that it might be backed by something. I had read previously that the Amero would have been backed by silver and not fiat. I can't say I know whats coming or what they are planning, but I think the possibility of a new currency "not" being fiat is there, as a means to win support by the masses. So, I would say that if a new currency is in the making, we should not assume that it would be fiat.
The confidence in the dollar is no longer as strong as it was, both here and abroad. E_Goldstein is right that the Euro hasn't worked out as well as they have planned, but I think that the EU elites would like to have more control over the hegemony mentioned. 1 way to do that is to merge currencies. Let's remember too, that so much of this "globalization" and so called "free trade" originated in England. We may have US Dollar hegemony, but who owns much of it? Rothschilds and Bank of England. The creation of the Federal Reserve was not an "American" creation, but had the fingerprints of the British all over it. The real reason we went into Iraq is cause they stopped using dollars for Iraqi oil sales. All the rhetoric about Iran is the same deal. The Brits got control of our dollar in 1913, and it is the anglo/dutch banking interests which once dominated the oil fields of Iraq and Iran. They want that control back. It was BP and Royal Dutch Shell that built those infrastructures to begin with.
You are right on the current Eurodollar definition, however, it's interesting to note that the name also pre-dates the Euro significantly ('60's). Currently, your definition is the correct one, but my thinking is that there is more than meets the eye. What if the Euro collapse is being timed in parity with the dollar collapse in order to bring about a Eurodollar? I have no evidence to support this claim, but considering the fact that we know this collapse to be engineered intentionally, just like GD1, I see this as a possibility worth looking into and guarding against.
Good point on the Lisbon Treaty. Go Irish! However, same as here in the US, by simply not calling it a "treaty", just like they did with SPP and the Transatlantic Economic Integration Agreement, the globalists are able to skirt the Constitutional requirements. They say "It's not a treaty", and implement it anyways, w/o 2/3 approval by the senate. I assume the same applies in the EU.
I hope I'm wrong. Thx for the replies, great observations!
Great Post
Thanks for sharing info and links.

You raise a very interesting topic. Though I don't believe a Eurodollar will have an economical chance (actually the Euro is under thread due to the diversity of the economical situations that make finding a common interest rate increasingly difficult) the transatlantic agenda is really worrying. Actually I'm about to do some research on data exchange between the USA and the EU, and I may post about this on the DP later.
These transatlantic cooperation is for me one of the reasons why the agenda of Ron Paul is so important for Europe too. Let's cover our flanks against common enemies!
Freedom brings People together
Ron Paul was right
awesome.
definitely let us know what you find.
Unlikely
A new currency doesn't solve the problem of excessive government spending. If the US government destroys the dollar, then it will also destroy the Amero/Eurodollar/whatever.
Perhaps the biggest challenge of having a successful common currency lies on making sure every participant economy doesn't destabilize the whole economic bloc. The Euro itself is at risk of fragmenting into two currencies, because countries like Ireland are spending way too much cash in order to bail out banks.
I agree that there is a strong trend toward global government, but it will take a more comprehensive (and dangerous) approach than just introducing a new currency.
An integration between the euro and the dollar? Doubtful.
Here is why. It is incredibly hard to integrate currencies. Unless they all fall to a parity of nothing, all fiat currencies will maintain a level of value relative to each other on the currency markets, due to reasons such as monetary policy, production, and investor confidence. If they try integration at this point in time, with the credit crisis just beginning, they will quickly see the users of the currency--the inhabitants of the participating nations--"catch on" that there is a problem with fiat currencies and possibly switch to alternatives (barter) in order to avoid the new currencies and the subsequent taxes that are sure to follow.
The first attempt at currency integration, the euro has basically failed. German banks have started to only accept euros that are printed in Germany for payment, while abandoning those printed in the southern countries in Europe due to their "unsound" banking practices. Add to the the failure of the Irish to ratify the Lisbon treaty, and we may see the european union disintegrate back into its member nations in the near future. Also, at this point in time, and within this generation, I find it highly unlikely that any American, citizen or elite, would be willing to go along with an international currency integration--for the former, belief in the "dollar" is too strong, while for the latter, it would put into jeopardy their welfare/warfare hegemony.
Now, there has always been a tried and true international methods of exchange--gold and silver--that were recognized as money over the centuries. If the participants were to create an international monetary standard that was based on using gold and silver as money, and possibly couple it to an electronic currency, there is a better chance that it would be adapted, due to the fact that it does not have counter party risk--meaning, it is wealth, and not a representation of wealth. Of course, this is highly unlikely since the higher ups in the banking establishments do not want to tie currencies to anything of actual value (they are unable to prosper from unlimited inflation, and threats to their power structure arise if they do).
Oh, and one final note. A eurodollar is an American dollar that is held in a European bank. They are used for trade partnerships with America, and to pay for oil on the world markets.

"the only thing that keeps the banking system from failing is general ignorance about how the banking system works."

oh 'e'...
your argument is reasonable. *they* aren't.
they are definitely going to try something global. we all just have to keep our ears to the ground for news and share it.
but see-thru, that's the thing.
Even if they introduce an international currency, unless it is tied to something of value, it is destined to fail due to the counter-party risk.

i agree 'e'.
but failure of it, is an option that *they* want to keep on the table.
currency crisis is a great management tool of the masses.
they're looking to establish something flexible so they can manipulate it as needed.
however, your answer is a REALLY good focus project for me. :)
on a side note:
in my line of work we had new federal legislation come into effect this summer. we have to report personal data and where money is coming from to purchase. it is all stored somewhere. anything suspicious goes on to be investigated.
but my point is... this came out of paris. our country had to get in line with the standards of france. (eu??)
they've begun integration on many different levels.
Lisbon treaty
EU treaties need to be ratified by all members ...
Lisbon treaty failed because of Ireland where all treaties must be subject to public vote.
is Ireland the last line of defence against EU globalisation power grabbing?
