  3. So the Rothschild's control MOST of the money around the world. Own the largest Aluminum plant in the world, and you wondered where those Chemtrails of Aluminum came from. And now they own the weather channel. Owning the Weather Channel makes for a great coverup to what their doing. They print the money AND they make the weather, and control what is said about the weather. They are ready for the Anti-Christ
