=PLEASE SEND THIS MESSAGE 'EVERYWHERE' SO THE WORLD KNOWS WHO HAS KILLED MILLIONS OF CHILDREN FOR THEIR HEROIN LAUNDRY LOGISTICS=
=To President Kim Jung of North Korea From Erik Young Bangkok Thailand=
==I have been robbed again by the GEFTAPO of Taiwan who use the name TIA.cia here in Bangkok. They are targetinmg me 24 hours a day and have sexually abused children and my partenrs ruining our lives. Please will The President of North Korea send some people eher to kill them. There is a group of about fifteen of them left here wandering around in Police Uniforms, MP Uniforms etc. Some have bleached skin and mousey brown hair colour they act in a very nervous style and seem to be drugged or desperate for a fix. Last time they caught up wityh me 13 of them surrounded me then handcuffed me and spent about three hours humiliating me with sexual remarks and previously they have spread allegations that I am a sexual abuser of children, one of their typically satanic lies. One of them is a very short woman with quite a dark complexion about fifty years of age and another a woman of about 40 years of age with long hair and pale skin. Every time they bother me they steal everything nbothing is ever returned and they always try to get money out of me using menaces. They use some corrupt policemen in the police station in Suan Plu next door to the immigration dept in Soi Suan Plu.I think they are connected to the killings of my two children 17 years ago. Please come here and kill them since the local; community does nothing to help. Many people ehere are on the IDs of people who have been killed then their IDs sold for between 1500 and 5000 baht by the GEFTAPO associates and others they use to launder money etc. They stole my daughter and forged documents they showed my wife, whom I bel;ieve they killed, papers they forged to make it look like I was a paedophile convicted in the UK. They used UK Police headed note paper to trick her into believing I was a paedophile and she never ever stayed with me again nor did I ever see my child again

So IF you are loading goods for the Wynn Casino Group who appear to be associated to funding terrorism worldwide to distract the law enforcement agencies and make their investigations more difficult to conclude. By causing conflict in the local market people will become depressed and it is easier to sell 'the product' (The Product is Taiwanese for HEROIN). At the same time we have the terrorists thinking we are their friends.

Dear Woking Borough Council
Please will you check the records of houses in Coley Avenue Woking Surrey to see if the present leader of North Korea may have originate from Woking Surrey UK.
I think his family may have lived in the house Pendeen Coley Avenue or the other half next door
I think the problems set down below illustrate there have been some very dangerous poisonous stories circulated by some group of Satanists. This may include defamatory inflammatory lies circulated to the Government of the USA about th Leader of North Korea and vice versa about former President(s) Bush of the USA and their predecessors causing a great deal of suffering for the people of North Korea.
Coley Avenue is off Park Road and Heathside Road Woking GU22 UK
Perhaps some fraudsters who gain wealth by generating conflict are the root cause of years of turmoil in The Middle East and between some of the Superpowers ?
New Malden is a place that whispers suggestions that it is the orgin of Mr Thaksin Shinawatra former Thai Prime Minister, but it may also be the home of Taiwan Heroin Dealers who have stolen the IDs of Koreans who never returned from business trips to Asia ? They drink beer out oif straws in Korea perhaps the ID thieves have another style of drinking?
Perhaps HoRucell Rise gives us a clue for one house there had Swallows in the eaves where the Brightman family lived. Do you think some Taiwanese thought they were very clever and tried to steal their minds and bodies? Do you think they tricked a young man from North Korea studying English at Brooklands College Weybridge. He knew that was where God has one of his homes, in Weybridge Surrey UK that's why they do not have a shopping centre. Horesell Rise is quite close to Inkerman Barracks..
The name Horo in Maori maybe the leader of North Korea may be from a Maori background. Whatever he isn't Satanic that is the hidden TI.Cia who have looted aboput fifty countries since 1946 and killed millions of families and their children using aluminium sulphate and poisonous gases and overdosed recreational designer drug/pills etc.
Pleas refer any information you have directly to President Barack Hussein Obama II The Oval Office The Whitehouse 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington DC 20500 USA or email president@whitehouse.gov

Dear President Ma Ying-jeou
Your State and ring of corrupt associates, started this campaign with your circle of crooked friends back in 1973 when Mervyn Frank Sheffield Young first appeared in South East Asia (aka The FA East) on business. Thus the L/C fraud followed by a series of "unfortunate accidents" both within his companies and to suppliers and clients including His Majesty The King Of Saudi Arabia assassinated the same wek mervyn Young had arrived in Riyhad to meet The King of Saudi Arabia whom I believe was the doing of your Satanic methods of doing business. totally unethical inhumane dishonest and corrupt.
Did your Government/Mafia know about the death of Princess Diana before the 'arranged' car accident ?
How many 'arrange accidents strategic business partnerships' have your Government/Mafia been associated with ?
Were your predecessors ID thieves in China concerning Tax Collection that never reached Beijing?
Did your Government/Mafia rob bank accounts of foreign business in Indonesia after Sukhano gained independence in the 1950s blaming Sukhano for these actions?
What do you know about Escoduro and Tzcesar fraud in Spain Portugal and the cannary islands and other land title forged by signature upon sale elsewhere in the world.. Hawaii for instance ?????
What is your "State's" connection to the illicit Class A Heroin trade? What connection does your illegal State of Taiwan have with the suppliers of Class a Illicit Narcotics that turned The Emporer of China's wife into a Heroin addict ?
What is your sate's association concerning people who abduct the children of officials trying to prevent the illegal distribution of Heroin?
=The Mafia In The Womb aka The TI.Cia=
===It was the TI.Cia who robbed The Vatican, they stole the IDs of the Sicilian Mafia===
==The TI.Cia were behind fitting up Roman Catholic Priests in the USA as paedophiles.==
Did you know the TI.Cia have killed around 500 million people since 1936.. They make the deaths look like accidents with alum overdoses in food and water of old people that cause a Stroke.==
Do you remember Walton Road Mr Thaksin Shinawatra ?
The Kempe experiment of the Gestapo of WW2, you must know they lived in Woking since you lived in Heathside Road in the house next door to my grand mother. ?
Ron Dennis of TAG Mclaren does not trust you and he knows I am publishing the truth.
They steal children to use in prostituton.. They were behind the Kempe Children Experiment of WW2. Did you know they stole one of my children, Mercedes ?
I have witnessed here in Thailand before my eyes about 36 cloned children used as an ongoing experiment on human beings by the TI.Cia. One of these individuals a young male had skin that bore the leopard fur patches seen on the Cheetah and Leopard cats. I am aware of the fact that the TI.Cia are Homo Sapiens Satan and NOT Homo Sapiens Human.
They hide behind the false masks of claiming to be Islaamic or Christian or Jewish or Buddhist when they are not Human at all and incapable of following the teachings of any of these faiths.
It is time for the world media to present these terrorists under their true identity and not the falsified IDs they assume to commit their satanic actions against humanity.
They dress up in the uniforms of the local police for example in Thailand they walk around in uniforms of The Royal Thai Police when in fact they are part of the TI.Cia Satanic Mafia and nothing whatsoever to do with The Royal Thai Police. It is their decit and lies that bring the genuine Royal thai police a bad reputation.
I have heard some of the TI.Cia talking about how they have bred a certain strain of being that is suitable for working as guards and others for the sex trade etc.
This was not make up but in his actual skin. I have seen other examples of the TI.Cia and their experiments on human beings. It is rumoured they have "breeders" they use to produce girls for the sex industry of the region and they put hormones from various animals in the diets of these girls to make them more sexually active.
The is only one solution which is to eliminate the TI.Cia from existence.. They are incapable of behaving in the civilised manner of Human Beings for they are NOT Humans.
Mr Winn-Pope is one name they use and also Geoffery Kempe (Genetics Ovary Chemical Physics Experiment). Geoffery Kempe was from Ashwood Road Woking Surrey UK. Walton Road Woking Surrey UK was where some ex-Gestapo mothers and children were settled after WW2. They have been committing land and property and ID fraud all over South East Asia and Spain and Portugal. They stole documents out of Bishopsgarth Heathside Road woking Surrey and from Mrs Fredrike Louisa Young at Little Oslo Heathside Road Woking Surrey UK.
One of them sits as a Magistrate in The Southern Criminal Court of Thanon Chalong Kreung Bangkok under a false ID.... He was in prison in UK HMP FORD PRISON for serious fraud just three years ago.
Did you know the invasion of Poland in 1939 was the work of Geftapo officers dressed up in the uniforms of Polish military ? Geftapo means German Empire Fon Tok Asia Pacifc Ocean. They were the U-boat crews and later polaris crew originating from Indonesia. They stole the IDs of germans posted in asia and bleached their skin by consuming acid in their food and drinks. They are homo Sapiens Satan NOT Home Sapiens Human. They forged the command to invade Poland causing WW2 in Europe. They did the same in the pacific with the bombing of Pearl Harbour forging a command that loked lke it was issued by the Japanese Navy Commander. That is why on both occasions countries were attacked without war being declared first.
Today they are known as the TI.Cia and they promote Satanic Games. They steal the IDs of members of The Royal Thai Police and other officials. That is their common practice to steal the IDs of other people to commit their crimes against humanity.
I have been terrorised non stop again for the last month 24 hours a day 7 days a week by a group of people connected to Walton Road Woking, St Georges Hill Weybridge and Southall Hounslow and Chiswick UK. These people who have families involved in illegally deveoping (devils offer) land that belongs to my family in countries that include Thailaland, Hawaii USA, Maryland USA, Surrey and Middlesex UK, London UK and Australia plus quite a number of other countries.
Their dishonesty,greed and corruption has included hiring people to kill some of my children, my father and about 60 people who have been friends of our family.
To date The Royal Thai Police have detained around 5000 people who were terrorising Erik Young in Bangkok. There are more that need to be arrested.
There are so few creatures on this planet that would torture children or any living creature. This places a pointer straight towards the Wynn/Taiwan Group especially as they seem linked to almost every single major conflict that is recorded. If you add them into any conflict which had not mentioned their presence you will usually find the genuine story, they were the trouble and they lied to both conflicting groups so they could go in and loot the country/business/industry and they were the group that brought the Gestapo to Europe. The same Gestapo totally corrupted NAZI Germany.

=== Demam Emas, Perang Dunia I, dan Depresi Besar ===
What has NEXUS got to do with this?
Perubahan besar yang pernah terjadi dihasilkan karena adanya [[Demam Emas Klondike]], yang mengakhiri depresi yang dimulai dengan [[Kepanikan 1893]]; dalam waktu yang singkat, Seattle menjadi pusat kota transportasi. Pada 14 Juli 1897, Kapal ''S.S. Portland'' yang terkenal dengan sebutan ''"ton of gold"'', dan Seattle menjadi pusat transportasi dan penawaran para pekerja tambang di Alaska dan Yukon. Beberapa dari pekerja tersebut menjadi makmur, namun bisnis tersebut menjadi celaan banyak orang. Bersama dengan Seattle, kota - kota lain seperti [[Everett]], [[Tacoma]], [[Port Townsend]], [[Bremerton]], dan [[Olympia]] menjadi kompetitor penting untuk perdagangan dan bukan tempat penting untuk menjadi sumber utama ekstraksi atau tambang berharga lainnya. Kejayaan Seattle ini berlangsung hingga awal abad ke-20 dan mampu memberikan membangun kota Seattle dengan banyak perusahaan dan produk baru.Tahun 1907, [[James E. Casey]] yang berumur 19 tahun meminjam uang sebesar $100 dari temannya dan mendirikan ''American Messenger Company'' (kini dikenal dengan nama [[United Parcel Services|UPS]]). Perusahaan lain yang berdiri pada masa ini adalah [[Nordstrom]] dan [[Eddie Bauer]]. Era Demam Emas ini mencapai puncaknya pada [[Alaska–Yukon–Pasifik Expo]] pada tahun 1909 yang merupakan tempat berdirinya [[Universitas Washington]] saat ini.

Sejarah

[sunting | sunting sumber]

Penemuan

[sunting | sunting sumber]
Perang Seattle (1856)

Penggalian arkeologis menemukan bahwa daerah Seattle sebelumnya tidak berpenghuni selama kurang lebih 4.000 tahun. Pada saat pendatang Eropa datang pertama kali,penduduk asli (sekarang disebut Suku Duwamish) telah menduduki setidaknya tujuh belas desa di sekitar Elliott Bay.[4] Tahun 1851, sebuah kelompok besar yang dipimpin oleh Luther Collins membuka sebuah lokasi di muara Sungai Duwamish. Mereka mengklaim wilayah tersebut sebagai wilayah mereka pada 14 September 1851.[5] Tiga belas hari kemudian, beberapa anggota kelompok Collins bertemu dengan anggota pramuka dari Partai Denny, kelompok yang akhirnya menemukan Seattle.[6] Anggota dari kelompok Denny akhirnya mengklaim lahan di Aiki Point pada 28 September 1951.[7] Setelah melewati musim dingin yang sulit, kebanyakan anggota kelompok Denny berpindah menuju Elliott Bay dan menemukan desa "Dewamps" atau "Duwamps" yang kini menjadi lokasi Pioneer Square.[7] Charles Terry dan John Low menetap di lokasi awal penemuan dan membentuk desa bernama "New York" yang kemudian dinamai "New York Alki" pada April 1853. Selama beberapa tahun, New York Alki dan Duwamps saling berkompetisi untuk memperoleh dominasi. New York Alki akhirnya ditinggalkan oleh para penduduknya yang bergabung dengan penduduk lain di Duwamps.[8]

David Swinson ("Doc") Maynard, salah satu penemu Duwamps, mengganti nama desa tersebut menjadi "Seattle" yang berasal dari nama seorang kepala Suku Duwamish dan Suquamish.[9] Istilah "Seattle" pertama kali muncul di koran Washington Territory pada 23 Mei 1853. Tahun 1855, rencana tata ruang desa dibentuk. Pada 14 Januari 1865, Lembaga Legislatif Teritori Washington membentuk kota kecil Seattle beserta para pengurusnya. Dua tahun kemudian, berdasarkan petisi yang diisi oleh para penduduk, lembaga legislatif membubarkan kota Seattle dan wilayah ini menjadi bagian dari King County hingga akhir 1869 ketika petisi yang baru diajukan dan Kota Seattle dibentuk kembali dan dipimpin oleh seorang wali kota.[7][10]

Demam Emas, Perang Dunia I, dan Depresi Besar

[sunting | sunting sumber]

Perubahan besar yang pernah terjadi dihasilkan karena adanya Demam Emas Klondike, yang mengakhiri depresi yang dimulai dengan Kepanikan 1893; dalam waktu yang singkat, Seattle menjadi pusat kota transportasi. Pada 14 Juli 1897, Kapal S.S. Portland yang terkenal dengan sebutan "ton of gold", dan Seattle menjadi pusat transportasi dan penawaran para pekerja tambang di Alaska dan Yukon. Beberapa dari pekerja tersebut menjadi makmur, namun bisnis tersebut menjadi celaan banyak orang. Bersama dengan Seattle, kota - kota lain seperti Everett, Tacoma, Port Townsend, Bremerton, dan Olympia menjadi kompetitor penting untuk perdagangan dan bukan tempat penting untuk menjadi sumber utama ekstraksi atau tambang berharga lainnya. Kejayaan Seattle ini berlangsung hingga awal abad ke-20 dan mampu memberikan membangun kota Seattle dengan banyak perusahaan dan produk baru.Tahun 1907, James E. Casey yang berumur 19 tahun meminjam uang sebesar $100 dari temannya dan mendirikan American Messenger Company (kini dikenal dengan nama UPS). Perusahaan lain yang berdiri pada masa ini adalah Nordstrom dan Eddie Bauer. Era Demam Emas ini mencapai puncaknya pada Alaska–Yukon–Pasifik Expo pada tahun 1909 yang merupakan tempat berdirinya Universitas Washington saat ini.
