Do the Rothschilds Control the World? | Unpacked

From humble beginnings in the Frankfurt ghettos of the 1760s, Mayer Amschel Rothschild's rise to patriarch of a global banking empire is often overshadowed by enduring yet baseless antisemitic accusations that paint the Rothschild family as puppeteers behind world affairs. The Rothschild name has been synonymous with both financial innovation and conspiracy theories ranging from controlling global events to creating financial crises.

Despite their continued contributions to banking and philanthropy, the Rothschild heirs remain symbols of harmful Jewish stereotypes about wealth. In the digital age, these theories have not only persisted but have grown and been embellished upon online, shrouding the family’s legacy in continued controversy.

The idea behind the book The Rothschild Vault on Corlest really blew my mind. It’s like stumbling upon a hidden shortcut to financial abundance.

[Bane_]

Pack it up guys the Jewish people investigated themselves and found no evidence of wrongdoing case closed

[GlobalSecularism]

Disclaimer: This video is supposedly not made by a jew.

[imaginative]

They totally don't control the world because it's illegal to criticise them. 🤔

[JohnSoap-wx]

The family having a hand in the creation of Israel and the western media never criticizing Israel tells me everything I need to know.

[johnholstun]

I always love how people always call the truth either conspiracy theories or antisemitism.

[michaelbrooker]

Whoever controls the money controls it all.

[JoaoBasso]

Oh, the money lending business is such bad business. Bankers are all poor people.

[bamms]

The greatest lie the devil told is that he doesn't exist

[Khloe.]

the fact you didn’t mention why the European leaders didn’t like the jews and kicked them out of their countries tells me everything i need to know about this video

[uta-std-oladejohafeez]

He started off by justifying “interest” as norm in all Abrahamic religions so as to change audiences opinion. It’s false, Islam “totally forbids interest”, and it has one of the gravest punishment.

[evanbennett]

Nothing biased from his point of view at all.

[petrokrasnov]

This clown did not alter or convince me to doubt my decades of research which is always attempted to disprove such theories as false and they haven’t! When the accused attempts to provide alternate info it always backfires and it looks more like a cover-up than a lesson!

[Boostlagg]

Best way to hide the truth is behind veil of conspiracy theories. Follow the money trail and leadership in all sectors. No such thing as coincidence.

[cooper]

I see how he slipped in the word theoretically 👀

[waisinglee]

As a child of Chinese immigrants to North America I can relate to how discrimination limits one's career choices. If you want to survive you had to make the best of things.

[testerhycom]

Rotschild family invented depopulation idea.

[afterhourscinema]

"Crying while striking" in action 😂

[questioningbitcoin]

Just saying it's not true doesn't make it not true.

[jonl]

Apparently, Israel also has the power to control weather that could bring choppers down. 🙂
