I have been reading and watching english documentaries about these topics for some time. Then I saw this interview on TV recently. Great to have this important information translated into urdu for the rest of us.
Here are some documentaries about these topics:
‘Zeitgeist’ the movie:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=__YFnUfYXZk
“Zeitgeist, produced by Peter Joseph, was created as a nonprofit filmiac expression to
inspire people to start looking at the world from a more critical perspective and to understand that
very often things are not what the population at large think they are. This part looks at the biggest fraudsters – the Money Makers. Anyone who prints money is a crook.”

Awab, again, you follow every intelligent post by a ridiculous one (case in point, this one).
This crazy person is mixing fifty different concepts and making a case that only stupid and uninformed people would believe; I frankly do not understand the constant zionist references. Like those MQM people who were accusing Imran Khan of being party to a ‘zionist conspiracy’, you’re basically doing the same thing.
You know what our problem is? We have no clue on how to play the game. Israel is a tiny country; Israel has ~7 million people. Yet, Israel has the best and most powerful lobby (AIPAC) in the only country that matters (US). That lobby ensures solid support for Israel, and also helps in getting Israel financial aid, which it certainly is not desperate for (because it’s people are educated and their economy is actually pretty good).
Let’s compare that with Muslims, specifically Arabs: they have the ONE thing which the whole world DEPENDS on: OIL. Yet, they hand it out at BELOW market value.
I find it absurd that with all the wealth in the world, the Arab countries have not been able to use their leverage in cases such as Palestine, etc.
BTW, You should have talked more about this while you were at Penn; it would have been interesting to see what your Wharton buddies would have had to say about this!
Oh my God! The later parts are outright laughable and idiotic! Freemasons? Give me a break!
I feel sorry for people who believe such utter nonsense.
When you laugh at truth, it is not long when it laughs back at you.
Teeth Maestro, you went to Wharton ? I can’t believe …. What were you doing there ?
By the way what your dad is doing in US these days at PTI platform, Why do we need to bring the Pakistani politics in US. I have never seen any India politician coming out to US and talking against ruling party of India. And the problem is Dr Alvi is speaking at university campus in Chicago and I am sure he would be talking against the Mush and country …
Obi – he is the Secretary Gen of PTI so he is just networking out there, I myself had no idea he was meeting with people in Chicago. Did you by chance bump into him? If you do get a chance to hear his talk, I think you will be surprised [contradictory to your comment] that his talk is generally from the heart, he is and has always been a true believer in Pakistan, you will NEVER hear any Anti-Pakistan sentiments from him at all. But when you mention General Musharraf I smile and wonder which cocoon you live in?
Rgds to Upenn – I was studying at the dental school at Upenn doing an advance post graduate course, work there had me knee deep into books and combined with our patient load we had very little time for other extra-curricular activities, let alone politics.
@JinnahFan – When I saw this series I simply treated it as a valid point of view, I share it here probably to help augment our own understanding of the global conspiracy, its a different question whether you believe in it or not, if you don’t then simply ignore the session, if you do, then I don’t expect you or any knowledgeable person here to take his word for it, but only use it to improve your own understanding.
All said, I do get the impression that he is a ‘wanna be Shahid Masood v2.0’
JinnahFan, I am truly intrigued that whenever Zionist name is mentioned any where in the world, some one crawls out from under a stone to ridicule, insult and label, but never to refute. As Teeth says, you don’t have to agree with him, fine, but instead of “give me a break” attitude, why don’t you try to refute what the man says. The only thing that I am not sure about what he saying is the religion part because I have never been interested in any religion but for the rest from what I know every thing he says is true.
Do you really know who controls the European Central Banks and Federal Reserve? Did you know that Federal Reserve is a PRIVATE banking cartel? Do you know how Federal Reserve was created and under what circumstances? Have you heard about the activities and financing of wars by the Rothschild’s dating back to the time of Napoleon?
And to answer your praise of Israel and its chosen people, listen up, any people, I don’t care where in the world, when they develop paranoia and cult mentality and start thinking and living like a tribe they will accumulate wealth and gain power, it is a phenomenon and not unique to them, their tribal activities just happen to be in the most wealthy economies of the world but I can sight the example of sects in Pakistan who live this way and have disproportionate wealth, power and representation in academic and other fields. Fortunately, for the most part human begins don’t live this way!
Here are some videos for your education!

TM, I used to be in Chicago many moons ago, now I am in West Coast. I used to live near the address you put for your domain registration :-). If I were there, I would have definitely gone to listen to him. I still can’t understand what networking PTI needs to do in USA. Talking with expats? At the end, they all just come with "present govt is $**t, give us chance". What ever politicians have to do, do in the country, please do not bring the dirty laundry outside of country.
I just hope that you never take my comments at personal level. You are too precious to lose for these comments of mine 🙂 …
Does anyone know why these videos are no longer available on youtube or is there something wrong with my browser?
JinnahFan you are jackass!!!
“We all know that this world is going towards a disaster sooner or later and the people who are already identified 15oo years ago are doing the same. But this man surely has aan eye for details and certainly believe the way he brings out the truth for general public. As far as my research is concerned i have not seen any discrepancy in his details. This certainly is an eye opener.
Nice! It’s great to know that I arouse so many passionate emotions; although I’d prefer more favorable ones than the hate being thrown at me.
My point is that Muslims themselves are to blame for the deep problems we are in right now. Notice that I’m not saying that other countries have been great to us; but, seriously, are you all naive enough to expect OTHER people to watch out for our own best interests?
Also, go easy on the videos starring retarded people; just because some idiot has an hour-long rant on YouTube does not mean he’s actually right. You guys sound like the paranoid lot who believe the government taints flu shots to make people do more shopping during the Christmas season!
Hey guys, salaam to all. I just wanted to ask anybody who knows if there is any CD of his programmes available in markets? I have missed few very important parts and his programmes never seem to be repeated. My net speed is too slow due to which i am unable to watch his shows online.
JinnahFan, it was about a specific subject; BANKING Economic Terrorism. Don't obfuscate, don't refute if you have no facts to the contrary, the issue with malaise in the Muslim countries is separate and may be a show on its own. The argument that it is Muslims’ fault that they did not become economic vultures and its credit to a certain people that they have, on a human level is a very weak one and in this particular case a diversion. I have no problems in agreeing with you on many issues that concern Muslim countries, but those same problems and apathy exists in Christian and western countries, it just doesn't show as badly because they are affluent right now. As for hate, no its not hate at least from my side, I am just fed up and disgusted that this self promotion by people of certain race (religion), with their lies and deceit, has completely brainwashed people in the west and now it appears to have infiltrated (western wannabe) people in the east also. Sorry if the language is harsh but the great injustice that is happening daily in Palestine, the global warmongering and the nauseating silence in so called civilized west is proof of this unhealthy power and influence and if you believe that this is just great and a model to follow for all the other people in the world, well then, I guess there is nothing else to say.
Assalam- o – Alaikum to All of you reading this measage
i was going through some of comments shard by borthers and will like to point out onething regarding these Zionists and freemasons…arent ya all aware of Protocols of Learned Elders of Zion written by their worst minds ever…and look what Quran has to say regarding Jews…and if ya still dont beleive then..i dont know what to say…the doom is upon us..only if we realize and work together againt a united front of Jews..free masons and all these so called Earth Distroyers of Peace and Harmony.read Confessions of an Economic Hitman by John Perkins..read What Henry Ford said about American Jews…and read The Confessions of a British Spy…u will come to know.their real power
BUT ABOVE ALL DO REMEMBER ALLAH IS INDEED THE BEST PLANNER.
For the Jinnah Fan : Just Do some Research Wil Let u know of the Freemasons in our history linked to Zionists and serving their long term plans:

So, Naif, your working hypothesis is that the creation of Pakistan, a separate homeland for Muslims, was a Zionist conspiracy?
On “Naif’s Working Hypothesis”
Aga Khan-Founding Member Muslim League
{Aga Khan of Bombay approached sultan Abdul Hamid of the Ottoman Empire In 1898, with “an elaborate plan for colonization.” The plan was based upon Aga Khan’s Zionist friend Professor Haffkine’s masterpiece scheme for the establishment of a Jewish settlement “that could be progressively undertaken in the Holy Land.” Dr. Haffkine had suggested before Aga Khan, “the land would be obtained by purchase from the Sultan’s subjects” whereas “the capital was to be provided by wealthier members of the Jewish community.” However the plan wasn’t accepted. Haffkine was an observant Jews most of his life and in 1929, shortly before his death, he created Haffkine Foundation in Lausanne, settling aside much of his amassed wealth to foster Jewish education in Eastern Europe.}
Terrorism in its all forms is prevailing every where in this Country. Economic Terrorism is being faced by the poor inhabitants since the Emergence of Our Country.
Dear Jinnah fan ..if u do a lill reaearch u will come to know that Jinnah father was a british Agent.in Order to Extirpate religious Teachings& demolish islam from with in they opened a madrassah for the teaching of islamic knowledge and an islamic university in ALigarh. in these scholls they educated religious men who were unaware of religion and hostile to islam. these people caused great harms to Islam , a group of these people were chosen sent to Britain,trained in such a way as to demolish Islam from within and brought to Govt Positions where they would preside over Muslims.Ali Jinnah was a Britsh Fan when he died in 1948, Ayub Khan A free mason Siezed power by staging a coup d’etat.Also Yahya Khan who took this disbeliever place was a bigoted Shiite. when he was defeated in the war of 1971 was later imprisoned,the n came the Bhutto Zulfiqar another British agent Educated and trained in Britain,its like the chain goes on…the basic idea is to relaize the scenario regarding our so called leaders and come to a common standpoint where we can educate our generation regarding the Truth.Hence the Idea of Creation of Pakistan was to divide and rule,colonise as karim pointed out.
What i am looking forward from u brothers out here is that we need to unite for a revolution or a change …where we can choose the best rather than the worst ruling us….and correct me if am wrong, the present scenario relates to the worst of the worst ruling us from zardaris to mush and all.
May ALLAH sace us all from these and more to come.
For Ridz : i have all the programmes ..if u have a gmail account or if ur a resident of Islamabad i have heard his Cd;s are available there.
oryou can download from videopk.com all Brass Stacks Programmes.
Hmm, this has gone from being somewhat funny to ridiculously boring; I’d really like Awab’s comments on the whole idea of Jinnah and Iqbal being Zionist agents!
Save your breath JinnahFan..its dogma..don’t you see that big structure on Bandar Road?
Thanks Naif. No, i live in Karachi but i’ll ask someone to send them to me here.

His programs are a good eye-opener. We certainly need more people like Zaid hamid.
JinnahFan you are an idiot of the highest order 😛 . Yes you are. Why? Because when people ask you to refute what Mr Zaid says in the video, you should try to refute instead of calling him retard. But idiots like you are not few, they are everywhere and growing in numbers. So do some research, put some evidence and give some arguments instead of disrespecting people who know more than you. idiot!
excellent programme by zaid hamid
people, if u have any solution or directions for the above problem, your efforts are welcome.
but please do not just criticized each other, lets talk about solutions… JazakAllah
Zaid Hamid has a deep analysis of different issues and foreign policies. If some wants to prove him wrong he should come up with genuine facts.

Salaam u Alaikum ma dear brothers,
The programme Brass Tack by Zaid Hamid is one of the most best programme that i hadn’t seen ever. I always watching his programme in my spear time, even if i hav no time in this busy life in australlia but i m watching him consciously. There is truth n no hypocracy that Zionist hold the entire world economy… but unfortunately idiots like (JinnahFan) will never be understanding… my brother Naif given u hints about intellectual u to understand…, Your wisdom isn’t more then Zaid Hamid, he is highly extensive God made scholar ever…, but such a peoples like u are always underhand by Jews n Freemasons. Do some lil search about that what Zaid Hamid said pleaze don’t present your low-rated scum comments about Zaid Hamid sayings. I m extensively agreed with Zaid Hamid!
May Allah guide u plz Jinnah pan
…
heyy, don’t b so idiot, nd don’t b a master of ur master, u don’t even (f u k i n)know abt the truth, jst u raise da name of zionist or wtever u say that.. i gotta tell u somthing that if u r chrishian so u r da one jelious person i ve ever seen him,

suck u…. nd suck ur zoinist mr jinnah
Well i reckon about Ishrish that he is rightfull in these conditions with Jinnah … Zaid Hamid LONG LIVE!
Hello Everyone
I have been watching Zaid Sb videos and the concept he is trying to develop of a parallel economy among people who have a thought and can do initiate this from individualism to communities to cities to privinces to states.
Althought this idea is wonderful and fully explains that why Quran and Hadith uses the word Dinar and Darhmas constantly, however Allah and Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) knew that in our time there will be an alternate currency, but still they want us to adopt the gold and silver concept to save ourselves from these rascal Zionists system.
I would like to add to this it is us the literate people of Pakistan who should initiate this system within ourselves and we are the ones to spread the awareness to the illiterate, less privileged and poor people of Pakistan by giving out Zakat worth in Dinar (Gold) and Darhams (Silver) so that in time these poor people will realize the significance and adopt it as they are a mass.
Mashallah Ramadan Alkareem is near and we will giveout Zakat please try to spread it in terms of Dinar and Darhams and lets start it this year and Inshallah we shall prosper.
With Best
Excellent Videos on the system of Ad Dajjal in Urdu.Pls watch by clicking on the arrow on the screen of each one….
Jinnah was a Shia so pls ignore all that JinnahFan has to say….Excellent learning and a true eye opener.Thank you Zaid Hamid.May Allah Bless you,Ameen.
Assalam Alikum
i want to ask about videopk.com????? i cant find it???? i want to download whole episode of this program but on youtube there is only 4 to 5min recording of its episodes…. if anyone know any site to download this program tell me…..
The Jinnah family was originally ismaili (shia off-shoot), but MA Jinnah spent a mostly secular life. It is therefore naive to conclude that he aptly followed the shia madhab, especially since during his last years he had very close ties with prominent sunni Ulema. And the fact that he willed for his funeral to be lead by Molana Shabbir Ahmed Usmani(RA) is reason enough to not label him a shia.
Allah SWA guides whom he wills.
for viewing all his videos, visit
http://www.brasstacks.pk
..i only heard that he belonged to parsi family not ismaili.you better confirmed it from dr .safdar mehmood.
hi all!
i am new here. Recently just came across these videos and found them quiet interesting. I however didn’t watched them on youtube but a bigger version of the video is available on Google videos( incase if you guys missed it). similar to video your comments are very interesting as well. Well to confirm it yes what Zaid Hamid said about the whole banking system is very true indeed. but there are some shortcomings in the way he presented it. And fact is its a general mistake many of us make when considering one single banking system. There are more books published on this topic. If the bank lend money to a borrower it will end up in other bank. Paying your gas bill is good example of withdrawing money from one account and paying to the gas company which might have an account in different bank. so the more the bank loan out the more deposits are created else where and they all end up in one single controlled bank. Fed of USA is just like another Central authority to back commercial banks(such as Habib Banks, abn-amro etc) when short of liquidity. They set up fractional reserve ratio that is to be sure the bank have enough liquidity when required.
If you watch the whole videos he talked about using gold instead of paper money. Which is highly impossible; chiefly because of Mobility and liquidity. Infact he should have talked more about full-reserve banking system where currency is totally backed to gold and the state sets the price. For example 1000rs can be backed to 1 gram of gold. this would not only bring the macroeconomic stability; in it key instrument which is Inflation. This what all traders look at and if trade is important then inflation is what the state needs to dealt with. Having zero inflation is also a very bad decision just as we cant have zero unemployment.
I can keep on writing about it. But do some research on it and please do comment.
Kind regards,
Alisaad
Sorry i forget to mention. I highly recommend the videos as i find them very informative and absolute joy. Highly appreciate the effort of brasstacks in bringing such a useful information together. And very truly Zaid Hamid emphasized over giving Zakat and encouraging others to contribute towards this blessing as well. Looking after neighbors its just another form of goodness as well.
Kind regards,
Alisaad
I really appreciate Mr Zaid Hamid and his team who r doing this wonderful job of awakening Pakistanis. This is actually the need of time and not that the bloody politicians of our are doing. Zaid Hamid is an ideal person for those who really love Pakistan. He lived and living his life as a true muslim mujahid. The knowledge he is transferring on media contains the true information and inside game which Zionists are playing in the world. I must say that at this time we need a person like him to come forward for this nation.Request to Mr. Zaid Hamid Kindly think over my suggestion.
In the end i must say that Allah give Jaza-e-Khair to all of u for all u are doing for Islam and for our beloved nation Pakistan.
Thanks & Regards
Zaid hamid’s analysis is superficial. He starts with the medium of exchange taking exhange economy 4 granted, n never delves into the question of how value is generated in the first place. I advise u all to think deeply n unbiasedly wid an open mind b4 getting too impressed by this man.
Check this thread out, so far the admin hasn’t validated my reply posted in that thread while others are posting their’s without any prb (i wonder why):

Awab,
I wrote the piece below yesterday. I wanted to reveal all I know about him as it was a burden on my heart since I saw Zaid Zaman Hamid re-surface through his self-sponsored programme ‘Brasstacks’. I hope you also remember all our mutual friends who fell prey to his charisma and his so-called ‘imam-e-zamana’ Yusuf Kazzab who was sentenced to death by the Lahore High Court. Mansoor Tayyab’s elder brother Rizwan Tayyab was the main activist of this cult in our area. He is now a psychiatric patient and not living a normal life. You may call Mansoor for further details as he and his whole family is still suffering.
You may also remember Saad Moten, Waseem Asrar, Mujeer, Atban, Danish and Shahzad of our area. All were sucked in by his misguided beliefs. Only Saad Moten defected and was one of the members of the team which played its role in the sentence of Yusuf Kazzab.
Zaid Zaman is now been planted by the same invisible forces which launched Shahid Masood with his first programme ‘End of Times’.
—
The reality of Zaid Zaman Hamid
Ghalib’s verse which later became a proverb “Hain kawakib kuchh, nazar aatay hain kuchh” is true for Mr Zaid Hamid, the fiery young expert of strategic issues and Jihad who has shot to fame in a few months through a programme Brasstacks on TVone.
Yes, Zaid Hamid is really IMPRESSIVE and he is taking the simple idealistic people of Pakistan, especially youth and women by storm. Had I not known him for the last 20 years, I would, too, have been all praise for this ‘new’ bright face on the TV talking about Zionism, Muslim conquests, Afghan Jihad, good and bad Talibans, and what not through his self-sponsored TV programme.
Just a REMINDER and WARNING to all my friends who trust my words:
If you guys remember the Pakistan false prophet, YUSUF ALI, who was arrested and sentenced to death by the Lahore High Court and then murdered in Kot Lakhpat jail by a fellow prisoner – this guy Zaid Hamid was known as Zaid Zaman at that time and was the Khalifah of that Kazzab. Zaid is still leading that cult which belongs to the firqah batinyah of sufism and they have a different aqeedah altogother which they only profess within their inner core. Many of my personal friends fell prey to his charisma in the 1990s, some of them reverted back to Hidayah and were instrumental in filing a case against Yusuf Ali which ultimately lead to his death sentence and the cult members dispersed for a few years.
All of the followers of Yusuf Kazzab are now gathering once again in Islamabad and after 11 years Zaid Zaman has reappeared as Zaid Hamid.
I first came to know about Zaid Hamid when he acted as a translator to Hekmatyar in 1989 during his visit to Karachi. I was really impressed by the bright faced young engineer from NED University who spoke excellent Persian, Pashto, Urdu and English. Later, I came to know that the training centre for Pakistani mujahideen in Posta Fez, Jalalabad was run by this man. I soon got introduced to new friends who were part of his team in Afghanistan. I even tried to run away from home in 1991 at the age of 14 to go to Afghanistan but was some how caught and persuaded by my family to refrain. In the same year I distributed several cassettes of a documentary – Qasasul Jihad – produced by Zaid Zaman, which showed live scenes of combat between Afghan mujahideen and Russian forces. For me Zaid Zaman and his team were like the re-incarnation of the heroes of Muslim medieval history.
However, soon Zaid Zaman was the centre of a scandal of misappropriation of funds of a large UK-based NGO, Muslim AId, of which he was a representative in Pakistan and Afghanistan. He also then parted ways with Hekmatyar and Haqqani and joined the ranks of Ahmed Shah Masood. Later he abandoned Jihad altogether and became a Sufi.
In 1994, when I was in aitikaf in Ramazan, one of Zaman’s close associates, who was also a very close friend of mine, came to meet me and started talking strangely about the “real” meanings of Islam denouncing each and every known Islamic scholar. He said that all translations and commentaries of Quran till date were blasphemous. He also said that every century has an ‘Imam-e-zamana’ who we should take bayah (oath of allegiance) of and he would soon arrange my meeting with that Imam.
Alhamdulillah, because of my strong Salafi beliefs I never ever met that so-called Imam-e-zamana but many of my friends fell into the trap. Soon, Yusuf Ali was being invited to dinner parties in many of my friends’ homes who were seen holding beads (tasbeeh) in their hands and preaching zikr and sufism here and there.
I lost many of my closest friends as I felt very uneasy with their beliefs and discussions. The basis of their belief was a ‘maudhu’ hadith that Allah (SWT) created the noor of Muhammad (SAW) before the creation of the Universe. That ‘noor’ will remain till eternity and even if the Prophet (SAW) is physically not with us today, his noor is present in the ‘Imam-e-zamana’ and hence he should be followed as the Prophet (SAW) was by his companions. Na’aauzubillah!
Meanwhile, Muhammad Tahir of Weekly Takbeer broke the news of Yusuf Ali and his cult quoting statements of some of the defectors. Yusuf Ali was accused of claiming to be a false prophet, immoral practices including sexual abuse of his women followers and homosexuality. Soon, a case was filed against him and the Tahaffuz Khatme Nabuwwat people also became a party. Yusuf Ali was arrested and sentenced to death based on irrefutable evidence of his misguided beliefs including the claim of false prophethood.

The Tahaffuz-e-Khatm-e-Nabuwwat office at Numaish, MA Jinnah Road and journalist Muhammad Tahir still has the record of that case and clippings of related news reports containing statements of witnesses who were once part of the cult themselves.
The name of Zaid Zaman Hamid also appeared in several of the news reports appearing in those days in Takbeer, Ummat, Khabrain, Jasarat, etc as he was the key promoter and khalifa of Yusuf Kazzab and the witnesses during the court proceedings and the press statements mentioned his name.
According to my knowledge, Zaid Hamid is still leading that cult in Islamabad and sources close to him confirm that he still proclaims the same beliefs of Yusuf Kazzab. It is not confirmed, tough, whether the new “Imam-e-zamana” is Zaid Zaman himself or some other person.
If you want to warn your friends and family from this fitnah, please spread this message to everyone you know.
May Allah (SWT) guide us all to the right path. Ameen
