    8 June 2009 par (Open-Publishing)

Zionist spin and Orwellian holocaust denial”: on MWC News: .

    I’m referring to a major, major gaffe in Obama’s Cairo speech that concerns the history of Muslims in Spain. I quote:

    Dark days for the dollar
    By Sean Brodrick
    JUPITER, Fla. (MarketWatch) — In May, the U.S. dollar index cracked important support. This affects all Americans, because we are all speculating in the U.S. dollar.
    If you don’t think so, open your wallet. Do you see dollars there? Then you’re speculating on the dollar by holding on to it. Probably most of your investments are dollar-denominated as well. Another leg down in the dollar could translate into tough times for your portfolio — and (…)

    Towards a world war of interest rates aimed at capturing global savings

    By David Glenn Cox
    First let me say that I have owned guns most of my adult life. I’m not a gun nut or a fanatic with high-powered rifles and semiautomatic handguns, or a bunker under the house. I owned a shotgun for home protection and a pistol for personal protection because I worked in a rough area and had to make cash bank deposits.
    I never had to use either gun but felt safer for knowing that I had them just in case of emergency. During my divorce my wife told sheriff’s deputies (…)
