THE ALL-SEEING BANK LOGO

Sir Tom McKillop tried to say sorry this week. McKillop is Chairman of Royal Bank of Scotland.

The RBS logo is of great significance. It is the all-seeing eye on a pyramid. Most people haven't the faintest idea that the all-seeing eye on a pyramid exists as a symbol, and so will not look for it. But the RBS logo is that symbol.

What would an all-seeing eye on a pyramid look like from directly above? A square with diagonal lines between opposite corners but with a circle in the middle obscuring the point where those diagonal lines cross?

Such an image has been slightly embellished in the RBS logo by
(a) removing the square outline,
(b) inserting lines that would be perpendicular to those missing lines running to the eye
(c) keeping the diagonal lines but duplicating them to form four arrows pointing to the eye, as if to say to us, "look, we're watching you, always".

A logo says alot about a business. It is supposed to say who you are and what you stand for. Why would a major bank employ such a logo? Why would a knight run that bank, one who attends Bilderberg and also runs one of the biggest petroleum corporations in the world?






As for the logo of HSBC, that also is a pyramid, but without the eye. Imagine looking at a red pyramid from directly above, and imagine 'opening' that pyramid like it was a present by pulling the left triangle down to the left and the right triangle down to the right, as if they were on hinges on their bases, to reveal a white interior. You could 'close' the pyramid by lifting the right and left triangles up until they formed the full, closed red pyramid.







Yet another British bank with a pyramid in its logo is the Halifax Bank of Scotland, using the X from Halifax.






These banks are considered the biggest British banks. Lloyds TSB uses a black horse. As the horse was a symbol of the sun, Lloyds TSB effectively has a black sun for a logo. The Nazis revered the black sun.

We are run by a right bunch of weirdos, aren't we?
