“The central banking-warfare investment model” is really a control model, through which a small group of people can control the most resources on the most profitable basis. Essentially what happens is: Central banks print money and then the military makes sure that other parties accept it and that the financial system continues to have liquidity. Catherine Austin Fitts is a graduate from the University of Pennsylvania (BA) and the Wharton (…) -
Did the Israeli Defense Force Bomb Jews?
30 August 2010(San Francisco) – Israel, a nuclear weapons armed colossus in the Middle East, fights a lot of wars with two small, almost defenseless neighboring countries – Lebanon and Gaza. The 2006 War with Lebanon took a turn for the worse, though.
Israel executed an emergency purchase for 100 plus US GBU-28 5,000 lb, or 2,722 kg, weaponized uranium aerosol bombs from their patron, the United States.
The GBU-28 is a cobbled together weapon consisting of an approximately 20 ft long surplus artillery (…) -
Our Redeemer
29 August 2010By David Glenn Cox
I was recently rereading Machiavelli and he said, when you acquire lands where the prince is unpopular you come as a redeemer. When you acquire lands where the price is popular you extinguish his bloodline. These things are the products of the hands behind the curtains and the powers behind the throne.
Now to the hands behind the curtains and the powers behind the throne George W. Bush was a very successful President. He cut taxes for the rich and created wars of (…) -

28 August 2010Marc Faber and Peter Schiff on the U.S. Bond Bubble
THURSDAY, AUGUST 26, 2010
One of the things I strive to do as an investor is to stand apart from the herd. By understanding human psychology, which basically explains bubbles and panics, removing myself from the herd becomes a lot easier.
There is a monumental bond bubble brewing that is incorrectly being justified as fundamentally sound (much in the way inflated home prices were 4 years ago). I just don’t see the risk/reward being in (…) -
A BOND BUBBLE?
28 August 2010A BOND BUBBLE?
28 AUGUST 2010 BY ANNALY CAPITAL By Annaly Capital Management:
The “bond bubble” discussion in the mainstream media has become deafening lately. Some of the commentary has been thoughtful and interesting, but not all of it. Much of the bubble-watch has focused on asset flows into fixed income funds, the total return of Treasuries over the last 10 years, and the theoretical possibility of a bubble in an asset class that guarantees return of principal.
Asset class inflows (…) -

The Stall
28 August 2010By David Glenn Cox
There are a great many differences between Ben Bernanke and myself other than that he has a good paying job with all the perks and benefits. He judges the economy by the reports he reads say and I judge it by what I see and hear. He reads his reports of economic performance while I merely look out the window.
“The U.S. economy remains “weak” and “fragile” and has a “significant” chance of falling back into a recession, Harvard University economics professor Martin (…) -
TOO EARLY TO WRITE-OFF THE NEW ISRAEL-PALESTINE TALKS – AN ANSWER TO JOURNALIST ALUF BENN’S EMPTY WORDS

Too early to write-off direct talks?
Please.
Representatives for these "direct talks" on the Palestinian side in a sense do not even exist: Abbas’s election mandate timed out a year ago, and he stays in office under emergency measures – i..e,, he has absolutely no democratic legitimacy.
But even poor Abbas, a kind of Palestinian "step’n’fetch it" (…) -
Not Tits but Horns!

Alan Simpson broke the cardinal rule in Washington; he said what he really thought. Turn about is fair play so here’s what I really think. His comments come as no surprise to Barack Obama. Simpson wants to gut Social Security and Barack Obama has hired Simpson to do his dirty work. A plan to rob from the elderly the disabled and the needy of their little bit of dignity to pay the debts for the wealthy, the careless and the warmongers. It is a crime beneath human (…)
