ISAIAH 18:1-2
1 Woe to the land shadowing with wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia:
2 That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes upon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered and peeled, to a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden down, whose land the rivers have spoiled!

In kingdom, Saudi prince’s coup fails
Press TV August 4, 2009


Saudi Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the kingdom’s former ambassador to the United States, is reportedly under house arrest over a conspiracy against the monarch. Saad al-Faqih, head of the opposition group Islamic Reform Movement, told Arab-language TV al-Alam that Prince Bandar has been disappeared and the media has published no word from the ex-diplomat’s whereabouts since nearly three months ago. According to al-Faqih, the prince first disappeared in Britain but he returned to the kingdom shortly afterwards. He added that after Saudi officials discovered that he had provoked 200 agents working for the Saudi security service to stage a coup against King Abdullah, he was put under house arrest.Al-Faqih said people close to the king had disclosed Bandar’s plots and foiled them.He said Saudi sources believe that intelligence provided by some Arab countries help the Saudi monarch foil Prince Bandar’s conspiracy. Power struggle between members of the Saudi royal family has been common as power is shared among some 200 princes out of the estimated 7000 family members.

Known as Bandar Bush because of his close relations with former US President George W Bush, the prince is son of Crown Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz.

What the Fed is REALLY Trying to Hide In Fighting an Audit
Washington’s Blog Wednesday, August 5, 2009


75% of Americans and at least 276 Congress members and 19 Senators want to audit the Fed, but the Fed is fighting tooth and nail to keep everything hidden.Most people assume that the Fed wants to keep secret the list of banks which received bailout money. You know, something along the lines of we gave Goldman Sachs $100 billion.But what the Fed is really struggling to keep hidden is the fact that the entire financial system is based on massive manipulation and fraud by the Fed and its primary dealers.Specifically, the Fed is desperately trying to hide that many trillions of the government’s bailouts have gone to inflating the stock market, buying up the U.S. government’s own treasuries, and gaming the currency and gold markets.Of course, when the New York Federal Reserve’s primary dealers (the dealers through which the Fed carries out its open market operations in general, and its PPT, ESF, and other schemes through) get the huge sums of cash from the Fed, they place bets based on inside knowledge of where the money flows are going (they also, supposedly, skim off part of the cash, but that’s for another essay).

In other words, the Fed’s primary dealers engage in insider trading and frontrunning on a scale which would make your normal white collar felons look like a silver nanoparticle.Finally, the Fed is not the only central bank engaging in manipulation. An audit would show how the Fed is playing footsie with other private central banks in an international con game.Don’t believe me? Show me the books and prove me wrong.

Lyndon LaRouche WARNING!!! Quote To: Friends From: Jerry Pyenson
Date: 7/28/09 23h05 EDT


I wanted to get you this emergency statement from Mr. LaRouche, which outlines the subject matter of his upcoming Saturday webcast on wwww.larouchepac.com. Circulate this e-mail to your entire list. Build this webcast. Mr. LaRouche says that before Labor Day, sane forces in the Administration and the Congress must take control over the Presidency, and move immediately to put the entire federal reserve system into bankruptcy-reoganization, and then launch a credit system. September 30th is the end of the federal fiscal year. The absolute bankruptcy of institutions and corporations and financial entities will be seen, and nations will simply HALT, if this is not done before Labor Day.

LAND FOR PEACE (THE FUTURE 7 YEARS OF HELL ON EARTH)

JOEL 3:2
2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.

THE WEEK OF DANIEL 9:27 WE KNOW ITS 7 YRS

Heres the scripture 1 week = 7 yrs Genesis 29:27-29
27 Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for the service which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years.

29 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his handmaid to be her maid.

DANIEL 9:26-27
26 And after threescore and two weeks(62X7=434 YEARS+7X7=49 YEARS=TOTAL OF 69 WEEKS OR 483 YRS) shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary;(ROMAN LEADERS DESTROYED THE 2ND TEMPLE) and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.(THERE HAS TO BE 70 WEEKS OR 490 YRS TO FUFILL THE VISION AND PROPHECY OF DAN 9:24).(THE NEXT VERSE IS THAT 7 YR WEEK OR (70TH FINAL WEEK).
27 And he( THE ROMAN,EU PRESIDENT) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week:(1X7=7 YEARS) and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,(3 1/2 yrs in TEMPLE SACRIFICES STOPPED) and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

ISAIAH 28:14-19 (THIS IS THE 7 YR TREATY COVENANT OF DANIEL 9:27)
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.

DANIEL 8:23-25
23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king (EU DICTATOR) of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences,(FROM THE OCCULT) shall stand up.
24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power:(SATANS POWER) and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes;(JESUS) but he shall be broken without hand.

DANIEL 11:36-40
36 And the king shall do according to his will;(EU PRESIDENT) and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers,(THIS EU DICTATOR IS A EUROPEAN JEW) nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces:(HES A MILITARY GINIUS) and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds (CONTROL HEZBOLLAH,AL-QUAIDA MURDERERS ETC) with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many,(HIS ARMY LEADERS) and shall divide the land for gain.
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south(EGYPT) push at him:(EU DICTATOR PROTECTING ISRAELS SECURITY) and the king of the north(RUSSIA) shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.

US Mideast plan in matter of weeks Tuesday, 04 August 2009 05:30 News from Jerusalem Another Mid-East peace plan?

Despite recent Arab statements opposing US demands for confidence-building steps towards Israel, the US anticipates it will have the pieces in place to formally re-launch the Arab-Israel peace process in the coming weeks.The Obama administration is seeking a complete freeze on Israeli settlements in exchange for Palestinian security reforms and Arab gestures towards Israel. With those in place, the US plans to announce both those steps and a resumption of negotiations, likely at an international conference, a senior State Department official told The Jerusalem Post Monday. He noted that no final decision had been made about the format, and that a simultaneous release of press announcements in various capitals or other mechanisms might be used.When asked about the timeframe of the efforts being led by US Middle East envoy George Mitchell at a press briefing Monday, US State Department spokesman Philip Crowley said Monday it would be a matter of weeks.The senior State Department official said he was referring to completing the current phase of the process, which has consisted of Mitchell consulting with officials from the various countries in the region on the steps they would be taking at the US's behest. He described that process as requiring a few more weeks of negotiation, though he noted Muslim and Jewish holidays coming in August and September could delay things.The comments of Arab leaders in Washington, however, have not appeared to be in line with what the US is seeking and what Israel would like to see in exchange for a settlement freeze.

On Monday, the Emir of Kuwait, Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al Sabah, met with US President Barack Obama and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton hosted Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh. Judeh voiced reservations about confidence-building measures, arguing that there has been in the past an over-investment, perhaps, by the parties in pursuing confidence-building measures, conflict-management techniques, including transitional arrangements, and an overemphasis on gestures, perhaps at the expense of reaching the actual end game.But he went on to back the concept as long as that end-game of reaching a final-status deal for a two-state solution was in place, saying, What we need is confidence-building measures - confidence-rebuilding measures, I should say - that resurrect people's faith in negotiations and that create a conducive environment for launching negotiations.His words came on the heels of Saudi Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal's comments in Washington Friday pouring cold water on the idea of confidence-building steps, pointing to divisions among Arab countries as to what should be done and complicating the administration's efforts to reach a deal. After Saud's own meeting with Clinton, he told members of the media that incrementalism and a step-by-step approach has not and - we believe - will not achieve peace. Temporary security, confidence-building measures
will also not bring peace.The Kuwaiti emir was more reticent than the Jordanian and Saudi foreign ministers, saying after his meeting with Obama,It is in our interest that peace be brought about, and the indicator is that the recent Arab peace initiative that was agreed upon by all of the Arab parties and states, and we would implement this peace initiative when Israel implements and fulfills its obligations.

The Obama administration has welcomed the peace initiative, in which the region's Arab countries would recognize Israel in return for Israeli withdrawal from land captured in 1967 and compromises on Jerusalem and Palestinian refugees. The confidence-building measures - incipient signs of normalization such as opening trade offices and granting overflight rights to Israeli planes - are in part an effort to form a bridge to discussions and potential implementation of some of the plan's guiding principles.Even so, and despite the influx of Arab dignitaries - a list to which Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak's name is set to be added on August 18 after a previous trip was cancelled - the Obama administration has had difficulty making visible progress. The visits follow a tour of key regional stops by Mitchell, who has also been having difficulties pressuring Israel to completely freeze settlement activity, including natural growth, though there are expectations that a compromise will soon be hammered out in which Israel suspends settlement construction for a least a limited period.Though the US has recently tempered its criticism of settlement activity, Clinton on Monday did sharply criticize Israeli eviction of Palestinians from their homes in Jerusalem, saying, These actions are deeply regrettable. I have said before that the eviction of families and demolition of homes in East Jerusalem is not in keeping with Israeli obligations. And I urge the government of Israel and municipal officials to refrain from such provocative actions.
David Makovsky, co-author of the book of the Middle East Myths, Illusions and Peace assessed that the US focus on the perfect - a complete freeze - instead of the more doable good of halting settlement expansion had raised Arab expectations to the extent that now they don't want to negotiate with Israel, as it is resisting the freeze.

It's hard to ask the Arabs to be more Zionist that the US on settlements, he said. We can't meet those expectations, and instead of facilitating an early resumption of talks, we're totally blocked.The Obama administration's idea, he noted, was that the settlement freeze would instead elicit the confidence-building measures from Israel that would create a new dynamic for restarting negotiations.The Arabs are not making it easy for the United States to do it because they're not offering anything that could be made public at this time, he said.And while Jordan and Egypt have been the most forthcoming, Middle East expert Aaron David Miller pointed out they each have the least to give, as they already have already crossed their red lines with Israel and made peace.But Miller, who worked on US Middle East policy when then-secretary of state James Baker got the Madrid conference off the ground, took a more optimistic view of America's efforts.I remember how the Madrid conference worked and it was nine months of hard diplomacy amidst extreme skepticism,he recalled, painting the current Arab and Israeli stances as posturing that could well be changed.While he held out little to no hope that Palestinians and Israelis would bridge their differences over final-status issues, he estimated that America's efforts to elicit Arab gestures and enough of a settlement freeze for a conference to be held this fall was quite reasonable,and that the likelihood of it happening was quite high.He described such a conference as a high-visibility event which would go beyond Annapolis because you've already had some degree of traction on the ground.By HILARY LEILA KRIEGER jpost

Netanyahu to U.S.: Israel will govern itself, thank you Tuesday, 04 August 2009 11:01 News from Jerusalem Israel's PM Binyamin Netanyahu

In a statement to WND, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office today objected to U.S. condemnation of the Israeli government for enforcing property law in Jerusalem by evicting Arabs from a Jewish housing complex they purportedly had been illegally occupying for almost a century.The eviction yesterday in Jerusalem was a result of a ruling by our Supreme Court that had to decide in a dispute between two parties over the legal control of a property,Netanyahu's spokesman, Mark Regev, told WND.Continued Regev: The Supreme Court ruled for one side and not the other. In all democracies the rulings of the courts must be upheld, and it is incumbent on the executive branch to implement such decisions.Regev said the Israeli Supreme Court is renowned internationally for both its independence and its professionalism. There are countless examples of the Supreme Court ruling in favor of the Palestinians in land disputes.Washington today condemned the Arab evictions. State Department spokeswoman Megan Mattson said such actions in eastern Jerusalem constitute violations of Israel's obligations under the U.S.-backed Road Map peace plan.Unilateral actions taken by either party cannot prejudge the outcome of negotiations and will not be recognized by the international community,she said in a statement.Much of the U.S. and international media the past two days have been reporting on Israel's eviction of Arab families from a house in eastern Jerusalem. Many of the reports failed to provide proper background regarding why the Arabs were kicked out of the home.The housing complex is located in the Sheik Jarra neighborhood of eastern Jerusalem. The home was originally Jewish, but its Jewish occupants were chased out during countrywide anti-Jewish Arab riots in 1929. Arabs then squatted on the property, with one family, the Hejazi family, becoming the de facto occupants despite never having purchased the property.

Even though documentation shows the complex is owned by Jews and that Arabs have been squatting on it illegally for almost a century, Jewish groups say they still legally re-purchased the property from the Hejazi family.Following pressure from the Palestinian Authority, however, the family later denied selling the complex back to the Jews despite documentation and other evidence showing the sale went through.The PA in April warned Palestinians against selling their homes or properties to Jews, saying those who violate the order would be accused of high treason – a charge that carries the death penalty.

Israel's court system twice ruled the property in question belongs to Jews.

Articles on the topic by Agence France-Presse and Reuters use the terms occupied and East Jerusalem to describe the area in which the house is located. Reuters called it occupied Arab East Jerusalem.According to international law, however, eastern sections of Jerusalem are not occupied but disputed.Referring to the area as Arab East Jerusalem presupposes the outcome of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations that have yet to take place and ignores British documentation that authenticates Jews outnumbered Arabs in eastern Jerusalem from the 19th century until Jews were expelled by Arabs in 1929.The use of the term East Jerusalem is widespread. Historically, however, there was never any separation between eastern and western Jerusalem. The terminology came after Jordan occupied the eastern section of the city, including the Temple Mount, from 1947 until it used the territory to attack the Jewish state in 1967. Israel reunited Jerusalem when it won the 1967 Six Day War, although the Palestinians claim eastern sections for a future capital.The eviction of squatting Arabs from a Jewish-owned property in Jerusalem follows recent demands by the Obama administration for Israel to halt all settlement activity,meaning Jewish construction, in Jerusalem and the strategic West Bank.Last month, Israel's ambassador to Washington was summoned by the State Department to demand a Jewish construction project in eastern Jerusalem be immediately halted.The construction project at the center of attention, financed by Miami Beach philanthropist Irving Moskowitz, is located just yards from Israel's national police headquarters and other government ministries. It is a few blocks from the country's prestigious Hebrew University, underscoring the centrality of the Jewish real estate being condemned by the U.S.Netanyahu strongly rejected the State Department demand, telling a cabinet meeting Israel's sovereignty over Jerusalem was not a matter up for discussion.

Imagine what would happen if someone were to suggest Jews could not live in or purchase [property] in certain neighborhoods in London, New York, Paris or Rome,he said just after his ambassador was summoned.The international community would certainly raise protest. Likewise, we cannot accept such a ruling on East Jerusalem," Netanyahu told ministers.wnd

17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.

8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.
9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.

19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.
20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

MI chief: From end of 09, Iran will have ability to build bomb
Tuesday, 04 August 2009 14:57 News from Jerusalem


Waiting for supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to give the go-ahead From the end of 2009, an Iranian nuclear bomb will be a matter of a decision on Teheran's part, rather than a matter of technological ability, Brig.-Gen. Yossi Baidatz, head of Military Intelligence's research division, said Tuesday.Israel Radio reported that in a meeting with the Knesset's Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, Baidatz said that while Iran's behavior had been cautious, it was continuing to build its nuclear power.

Baidatz added that the atmosphere in the international community was that of accepting that the Islamic republic would eventually have nuclear weapons.The intelligence chief went on to say that Syria would be willing to scale back its ties with Iran, Hizb'allah, and the Palestinian terror groups in a peace agreement with Israel.Peace with Syria would have far-reaching implications on Israel's strategic environment, he concluded.Also on Tuesday, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu visited the nuclear reactor in Dimona.Netanyahu was briefed by the reactor's chief, Major-General (retired) Udi Adam, and talked with the site's managers about the political and security challenges facing Israel.Iran has recently threatened to attack the reactor in Dimona if Israel tries to carry out a strike against its nuclear facilities.On Monday, citing intelligence sources, The Times reported that Iran could complete the manufacture of an atomic bomb within a year, and was just waiting for supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to give the go-ahead.jpost

Fatah declared war on Israel Tuesday, 04 August 2009 14:36 News from Jerusalem

Information minister launched scathing attack on Palestinian President Abbas, his people.The most violent and extreme settlement of all is the Palestinian state, which will be established by the moderates who call for an armed struggle and the right of return,he says.Information and Diaspora Minister Yuli Edelstein (Likud) on Tuesday referred to the Fatah congress being held in Bethlehem as a declaration of war.We must not act as if we haven't heard,he told Ynet. We must emerge from the circle of illusions that these are moderates who want peace. They explicitly say that they support continuing the armed struggle.Minister Edelstein addressed remarks made by Fatah strongman and others, who have said that they will not give up the armed struggle. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas himself said during the conference that alongside the choice of peace,resistance was still an option.Are these the moderate leaders the world wants us to hold negotiations with? he asked.My feeling is that we are not interested in listening to the voices calling for an armed struggle, for the right of return and for the establishment of a capital of their own in Jerusalem.We are pretending not to hear the clear trend demonstrated by Abu Mazen (Abbas) and his people to adapt themselves to Hamas,the information minister said.Our main task is to act in the international arena and explain the difference between dreams and reality, he continued.There they are doing the easiest thing – accusing Israel of refusing to freeze construction in Jerusalem. They don't see that what is happening in Bethlehem and what is being said there is not being said by Hamas, Hezb'allah or (Syrian President) Bashar Assad.

This is Fatah we are talking about, those who the international community is allegedly pushing us to negotiate with. If anyone should talk about settlements endangering peace, the most violent and extreme settlement is the Palestinian state, which will be established and run by the moderate speaking today at the Fatah conference.Edelstein called on the government to continue the Israeli construction in the West Bank and Jerusalem. He claimed that the Palestinian Authority in Nablus and Jenin was acting against Hamas for its own benefit, and not for peace with Israel.
It's all a result of the internal power struggles. They want to oppress Hamas. The competition is not over who will control the area and manage peace, but rather who will lead the struggle against Israel. Those who really seek peace are not taking today in Bethlehem about an armed struggle.Edelstein's remarks followed a warning issued Monday night by former Shin Bet chief, Knesset Member Avi Dichter (Kadima), who said that the Fatah conference could lead to a third intifada.ynet

Dichter warns of 3rd intifada Tuesday, 04 August 2009 06:07 News from Jerusalem

Former Shin Bet chief, internal security minister says reckless decisions by nearing Fatah congress may reignite armed conflict with Israel.It's clear that the PA has no intention of missing an opportunity – to miss an opportunity,he says.Former Shin Bet chief Knesset Member Avi Dichter (Kadima) warned Monday night of the decisions which may be reached during the upcoming Fatah congress in the West Bank city of Bethlehem.

Fatah's statements are clearing the way to what may eventually be the third intifada, he said.Once you say that the fight will go on by all means necessary – anyone in their right mind understands that spells an armed conflict... Such a decision by the congress would send us years back.Dichter, who served as internal security minister in the former government, also addressed reports suggesting Fatah may reaffirm and update sections of its charter, particularly those objecting to any recognition of Israel as the Jewish homeland.It is very clear, even now, that the Palestinians have no intention of missing an opportunity – to miss an opportunity,he said.What I find particularly disturbing is that it's the moderates that plan to have the convention vote on an article titled continuing the fight against Israel by all means necessary.Sixteen years after the Oslo Accords, it's Fatah's way of saying they see an armed conflict as a legitimate way to conduct dialogue with Israel.If they intend to see that article through, they would be leading to the next armed conflict. A week ago they were still talking about a public fight, which could be construed as demonstrations, but over the past few days they have been talking about reaffirming the sections calling for a fight.It is inconceivable,he continued,That nine years after the Second Intifada – which the heads of the Palestinian Authority did nothing to curb – and two years after they lost the Gaza Strip to Hamas and the Iranians in what was a de facto coup, the PA's leadership, headed by Abbas, still believe an armed conflict would lead to a Palestinian state.If it wasn’t for Israel's vigorous actions against the terror activity in Judea and Samaria, the Palestinian Authority's leaders would be on the run, trying to flee Hamas, just like they fled Gaza. The future of the Palestinian Authority depends on it seeking peace with Israel.Dichter, whose grim analysis is based on his dozens of years with the security establishment, believes Israel must reevaluate the situation before making any further decisions.The chances of any bilateral progress with the Palestinians are practically nonexistent, because they don’t know how to follow though (on decisions) for themselves, let alone where Israel is concerned.We have to take a closer look at the Arab Initiative, which may provide a biding framework for the PA. As I see it,he concluded, The Palestinians are about to lose their way again, just like after Oslo.ynet

Pentagon to speed giant bunker buster production amid Iranian, North Korean nuclear concerns Tuesday, 04 August 2009 05:50 News from Jerusalem The Massive Bunker-Buster

The Obama administration has indicated for the first time that diplomatic engagement is not its only option for grappling with Iran's nuclear weapons drive, DEBKAfile's military sources report.US Air Force spokesman Andy Bourland announced Monday, Aug. 3 that if Congress shifts enough funds to the program, Northrop Grumman Corp's radar-evading stealth B-2 bomber would be capable of carrying the non-nuclear, 30,000-pound Massive Ordnance Penetrator, MOP, which is designed to destroy deeply buried bunkers, by July 2010.The Air force and Department of Defense are looking at ways to accelerate the program,he said.Shortly before the announcement, the London Times quoted Western intelligence sources as reporting that it would take Iran six months to enrich enough uranium and another six months to assemble the warhead for mounting on its long-range Shehab-3 missile. The industry was only waiting for supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to give the nod for the first bomb to be produced.The estimated target date for the accelerated US bunker buster's deployment tallies closely therefore with the timeline for Iran's prospective nuclear capability.On July 31, DEBKAfile revealed that visiting US officials asked Israel last week to leave the handling of Iran's nuclear threat to the United States, up to and including military action - according to a three-stage plan they unveiled.To read the article click HERE|http://www.debka.com/headline.php?hid=6203}.

The Washington announcement of Monday added weight to that message.

The precision-guided weapon carries more than 5,300 pounds of explosives and would be the biggest conventional bomb the US has ever used. It can deliver more than 10 times the explosive power of its predecessor, the 2,000-pound BLU-109, and penetrates to a depth of 61 meters before exploding. Boeing could be put on contract within 72 hours to build the first models if Congress signed off.The US military commands for the Pacific and Middle East appear to be backing the acceleration request, intent on sending a signal to both North Korea and Iran that if they do not back off, America is developing a military option for almost instantaneous deployment against the military programs they have buried deep underground to escape detection.debka

Georgia calls for EU help as tensions flare
ANDREW RETTMAN Today AUG 5,09 @ 09:27 CET


Georgian president Mikheil Saakashvili has called for EU and US help to prevent a renewal of fighting with Russia three days before the one year anniversary of the war.The latest [Russian army] manoeuvres are worrying. They refuse to respond to calls from European observers and unfortunately the media in Moscow are announcing a situation of imminent conflict,he told French radio station RTL on Tuesday (4 August).
Despite all that, I am confident that Europe and the United States will send a clear message [to Russia].Russian president Dmitry Medvedev later telephoned US leader Barack Obama to wish him happy birthday, with Mr Obama calling for decreased tensions the White House said.The remarks come after Russia put its 7,000 or so troops in Georgia's breakaway South Ossetia province on high alert citing Georgian provocations.
The number of incidents on the South Ossetia boundary line has multiplied in recent days.On Tuesday, Georgia accused Russia of trying to set up a military checkpoint in the village of Kvechi on the Georgia-controlled side of the line. It also said two grenades were fired towards a Georgian police post.South Ossetia had on Monday reported that three mortar rounds were fired from a Georgian-controlled village to the hamlet of Ortev on its side of the boundary.The 7 August 2008 war erupted in a battle between Russian and Georgian forces over the South Ossetian capital Tskhinvali, with Russian tanks at one point poised to enter Tbilisi.French president Nicolas Sarkozy helped negotiate a ceasefire but later gave Russia the EU's blessing to keep thousands of soldiers inside disputed Georgian zones.The brief war, which cost hundreds of civilian lives, came as a shock to former Soviet countries, raising fears of a new wave of Russian imperialism.

Russian Subs Patrolling Off East Coast of U.S. By MARK MAZZETTI and THOM SHANKER Published: August 4, 2009

WASHINGTON — A pair of nuclear-powered Russian attack submarines has been patrolling off the eastern seaboard of the United States in recent days, a rare mission that has raised concerns inside the Pentagon and intelligence agencies about a more assertive stance by the Russian military.The episode has echoes of the cold war era, when the United States and the Soviet Union regularly parked submarines off each other’s coasts to steal military secrets, track the movements of their underwater fleets — and be poised for war.But the collapse of the Soviet Union all but eliminated the ability of the Russian Navy to operate far from home ports, making the current submarine patrols thousands of miles from Russia more surprising for military officials and defense policy experts.I don’t think they’ve put two first-line nuclear subs off the U.S. coast in about 15 years,said Norman Polmar, a naval historian and submarine warfare expert.The submarines are of the Akula class, a counterpart to the Los Angeles class attack subs of the United States Navy, and not one of the larger submarines that can launch intercontinental nuclear missiles.According to Defense Department officials, one of the Russian submarines remained in international waters on Tuesday about 200 miles off the coast of the United States. The location of the second remained unclear. One senior official said the second submarine traveled south in recent days toward Cuba, while another senior official with access to reports on the surveillance mission said it had sailed away in a northerly direction.The Pentagon and intelligence officials spoke anonymously to describe the effort to track the Russian submarines, which has not been publicly announced.

President Obama spoke by telephone with President Dmitri A. Medvedev of Russia on Tuesday, but it was not clear whether the subject of the submarines came up, although another source of friction between the two countries did. Mr. Medvedev called Mr. Obama to wish him a happy birthday and the White House said the president used the opportunity to urge Russia to work through diplomatic channels to resolve rising tensions with Georgia.The submarine patrols come as Moscow tries to shake off the embarrassment of the latest failed test of the Bulava missile, a long-range weapon that was test fired from a submarine in the Arctic on July 15. The failed missile test was the sixth since 2005, and some experts see Russia’s assertiveness elsewhere as a gambit by the military to prove its continued relevance. It’s the military trying to demonstrate that they are still a player in Russian political and economic matters,Mr. Polmar said.One of the submarines is the newer Akula II, officials said, which is quieter than the older variant and the most advanced in the Russian fleet. The Akula is capable of carrying torpedoes for attacking other submarines and surface vessels as well as missiles for striking targets on land and at sea.Defense Department officials declined to speculate on which weapons might be aboard the two submarines.While the submarines have not taken any provocative action beyond their presence outside territorial waters of the United States, officials expressed wariness over the Kremlin’s motivation for ordering such an unusual mission.Anytime the Russian Navy does something so out of the ordinary it is cause for worry, said a senior Defense Department official who has been monitoring reports on the submarines’ activities.The official said the Navy was able to track the submarines as they made their way through international waters off the American coastline. This can be done from aircraft, ships, underwater sensors or other submarines.We’ve known where they were, and we’re not concerned about our ability to track the subs, the official added.We’re concerned just because they are there.Once among the world’s most powerful forces, the Russian Navy now has very few ships regularly deployed on the open seas. Moscow has contributed warships to the international armada searching for Somali pirates. In addition, a flotilla of Russian warships participated in exercises with Venezuela last year.

New names emerge for top EU jobs
ANDREW RETTMAN Today AUG 5,09 @ 09:10 CET


Former German foreign minister Joschka Fischer should run the European Commission according to MEP Daniel Cohn-Bendit, while British ex-commissioner Chris Patten is eyeing an EU foreign minister role.A European mandate would not be the worst thing for Joschka,Mr Cohn-Bendit told the Frankfurt Journal magazine on Tuesday (4 August).The two politicians know each other since the 1970s, when both helped staged street protests for the radical left and later joined the Green party. Mr Fischer was foreign minister under chancellor Gerhard Schroeder from 1998 to 2005. He supported German military intervention in Kosovo but opposed the Iraq war. He came back onto the EU political scene in June by agreeing to promote the Nabucco gas pipeline - a project to link the EU directly to suppliers in the Caspian Sea region, reducing dependency on Russia.Britain's former EU commissioner for external relations, Chris Patten, has meanwhile told the FT that he would like to take up the new EU foreign minister role envisaged by the Lisbon treaty. I'm not campaigning for the job ...But if I was approached, which I think is unlikely, I would certainly be very positive about it,he said.Mr Patten worked in Brussels from 1999 to 2004 earning a reputation as a critic of the then US president George Bush. He is currently the chancellor of Oxford University.

Mr Cohn-Bendit opposes the re-appointment of centre-right Portuguese politician Jose-Manuel Barroso as commission chief on grounds that he has tried to sideline the European Parliament.But no serious competitors have come forward for the post since the 27 EU states voiced backing for Mr Barroso in June.Swedish foreign minister Carl Bildt, former Finnish prime minister Paavo Lipponen, Finnish EU enlargement commissioner Olli Rehn and Dutch former Nato chief Jaap de Hoop Scheffer have been named as potential EU foreign relations chiefs.

Most Icelanders opposed to EU membership
LISBETH KIRK Today AUG 5,09 @ 09:34 CET


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Less than two weeks after Iceland formally applied to join the European Union, a Capacent Gallup poll published in the country's largest daily, Morgunbladid, has shown that most Icelanders are cold on membership.A majority of 48.5 percent is now opposed to entering the EU, 34.7 percent of people are in favor and 16.9 percent are undecided, the survey shows. The study was conducted between 16 and 27 July 2009 among 1,273 people.The new poll suggests a swing to the No camp of almost 10 per cent since the last survey, conducted by the same company in spring.

In May, 38.6 percent was opposed to EU membership, 39 percent of people were in favor and 22.4 percent were undecided.A slim majority in the newly elected Icelandic parliament, the Althing, decided last month (16 July) to back a bid for EU membership.

Iceland's minister of foreign affairs, Ossur Skarphedinsson, submitted the request to his Swedish counterpart, Carl Bildt, representing the Swedish EU presidency, a few days later.If the EU negotiations go smoothly, Icelanders will eventually be asked to approve accession in a referendum, according to a deal between the political parties in Iceland.The new opinion poll was published on the same day as news emerged about the reasons behind the financial collapse last year of the country's biggest bank, Kaupthing Bank.An internal risk analysis report from the bank has been leaked via the WikiLeaks whistleblower website. The text shows how the bank's loan committee lent huge sums to a handful of named companies just two weeks before the system broke down last October.The biggest loans, which total more than €6 billion, were given to companies who were at the same time major shareholders in the bank. The only securities for the loans were the shares themselves. So there was nothing behind this capital,said Vilhjalmur Bjarnason, director of the Iceland Shareholders Association and a lecturer in business at the University of Iceland, according to AP.

Diseased African Monkeys Used to Make Swine Flu Vaccines; Private Military Contractor Holds Key Patents Mike Adams Natural News Wednesday, August 5, 2009

To most people, vaccines sound medically harmless. They’re good for you! say the doctors and drug companies, but they never really talk about what’s in those vaccines. There’s a good reason for that: If people knew what was really in those vaccines, they would never allow themselves to be injected with them.Aside from the dangerous ingredients many people already know about (like squalene or thimerosal), one of the key ingredients used in flu vaccines (including the vaccines being prepared for the swine flu pandemic) is the diseased flesh of African Green Monkeys. This is revealed in U.S. patent No. 5911998 – Method of producing a virus vaccine from an African green monkey kidney cell line. (http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/5…)

As this patent readily explains, ingredients used in the vaccine are derived from the kidneys of African Green Monkeys who are first infected with the virus, then allowed to fester the disease, and then are killed so that their diseased organs can be used make vaccine ingredients. This is done in a cruel, inhumane flesh factory environment where the monkeys are subjected to a process that includes incubating said inoculated cell line to permit proliferation of said virus.Then: harvesting the virus resulting from step (c); and… (ii) preparing a vaccine from the harvested virus.Aside from the outrageous cruelty taking place with all this (incubating the virus in the kidneys of living monkeys, for example), there’s another disturbing fact that has surfaced in all this: The patent for this process is held not just by the National Institutes of Health, but by another private corporation known as DynCorp.This, of course, brings up the obvious question: Who is Dyncorp? And why do they hold a patent on live attenuated vaccine production using African Green Monkeys?

What you probably didn’t want to know about Dyncorp
DynCorp, it turns out, is a one of the top private military contractors working for the U.S. government. In addition to allegedly trafficking in under-age sex slaves in Bosnia (http://www.corpwatch.org/article.ph…) and poisoning rural farmers in Ecuador with its aerial spraying of Colombian coca crops (http://www.corpwatch.org/article.ph…), Dyncorp just happens to be paid big dollars by the U.S. government to patrol the U.S. / Mexico border, near where the H1N1 first swine flu virus was originally detected.DynCorp also happens to be in a position to receive tremendous financial rewards from its patents covering attenuated live viral vaccine harvesting methods, as described in four key patents jointly held by DynCorp and the National Institutes of Health:(6025182) Method for producing a virus from an African green monkey kidney cell line.(6117667) Method for producing an adapted virus population from an African green monkey kidney cell line (http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/6…).(5911998) Method of producing a virus vaccine from an African green monkey kidney cell line.(5646033) African green monkey kidney cell lines useful for maintaining viruses and for preparation of viral vaccines.

Government collusion?
One of the key inventors in these patents now held by DynCorp was Dr. Robert H. Purcell. Who is Dr. Robert Purcell? He’s one of the co-chiefs of the Laboratory of Infectious Diseases of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases operating under the National Institutes of Health of the U.S. government. (http://www3.niaid.nih.gov/labs/abou…).That office, located at 50 South Drive, Bethesda, MD 20892, is less than 15 miles away from the headquarters of DynCorp.It’s not too many more miles to Washington D.C., where U.S. government health authorities awarded over $1 billion in swine flu vaccine contracts to pharmaceutical companies. Can you guess which company received one of the largest vaccine manufacturing contracts? Baxter Pharmaceuticals, the very same company using ingredients derived from African Green Monkeys in precisely the way described in the patents held jointly by DynCorp and the NIH. Remember, Baxter is the company that was caught inserting live viruses into vaccine materials distributed to 18 different countries.

Are you following all this?

So far, we have the U.S. government awarding swine flu vaccine manufacturing contracts to a major U.S. vaccine manufacturer (Baxter) that uses vaccine ingredients from African Green Monkeys (sick!), derived from a process covered in a patent invented by U.S. government NIH researchers (Dr. Purcell and others) and now held jointly by the NIH and a private military contractor named DynCorp — the very same company that’s paid to monitor the U.S. / Mexico border where H1N1 swine flu first appeared.And just today, there’s yet another development in all this: A Tamiflu-resistant strain of swine flu has just been discovered. Care to guess where? On the U.S.-Mexico border (http://www.google.com/hostednews/af…).Once you understand all this, some obvious questions come to mind: Could H1N1 swine flu have been intentionally created and released into the wild (in Mexico) in order to create a windfall of vaccine profits that would financially benefit both the drug companies and the vaccine production patent holders? Because it certainly appears that a grand conspiracy between the NIH, the vaccine makers and private military contractors could have pulled this off.But wait: Would a private military contractor really resort to such tactics just to make money? Decide for yourself. Dyncorp has already been accused of crimes against humanity and genocide (http://www.corpwatch.org/section.ph…). According to the Wikipedia page on Dyncorp: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DynCor…)

Since the late 1990s, the United States has paid private contractors an estimated $1.2 billion, both to eradicate coca crops and to assist the Colombian army put down rebels that use the illegal drug trade to finance their insurgency. DynCorp has been awarded under competitive bid more of this business than any other company. In September 2001, a group of Ecuadorian farmers filed a class-action lawsuit against DynCorp under the Alien Tort Claims Act (ATCA), the Torture Victim Protection Act and state law claims in US federal court in the District of Columbia. The plaintiffs claimed that from January to February 2001 DynCorp sprayed the herbicide almost daily, in a reckless manner, causing severe health problems (high fever, vomiting, diarrhea, dermatological problems) and the destruction of food crops and livestock of approximately 10,000 residents of the border region. In addition, the plaintiffs alleged that the toxicity of the fumigant caused the deaths of four infants in this region. The plaintiffs alleged under ATCA that DynCorp’s intensive aerial spraying of a toxic fumigant amounted to torture, a crime against humanity and cultural genocide.

And on the issue of DynCorp’s people engaging in the sex slave trade:According to whistleblower Ben Johnston, a former aircraft mechanic who worked for [DynCorp] in Bosnia, employees and supervisors of a predecessor company to today’s DynCorp International engaged in sex with 12 to 15 year old children, and sold them to each other as slaves.On June 2, 2000, members of the 48th Military Police Detachment conducted a sting on the DynCorp hangar at Comanche Base Camp, one of two U.S. bases in Bosnia, and all DynCorp personnel were detained for questioning. CID spent several weeks working the investigation and the results appear to support Johnston’s allegations. For example, according to DynCorp employee Kevin Werner’s sworn statement to CID, during my last six months I have come to know a man we call Debeli, which is Bosnian for fat boy. He is the operator of a nightclub by the name of Harley’s that offers prostitution. Women are sold hourly, nightly or permanently.
Could this same company — which admittedly sprays poison on family farms in Colombia and Ecuador — have engaged in another crime against humanity with the release of swine flu virus in Mexico? Important questions that need to be asked (and answered)
This apparent conspiracy brings up several important questions that need to be answered:

1) Why are key viral vaccine patents jointly held by the NIH and a large private military contractor?
2) Given the atrocious vaccine material handling safety record of Baxter Pharmaceuticals, why did the U.S. government choose Baxter to manufacture vaccines for public consumption?
3) Why is no one talking about the African Green Monkeys who are infected, incubated and then killed for harvesting vaccine ingredients used in the swine flu vaccine?
4) Is it just coincidence that the swine flu virus (and now the Tamiflu-resistant mutation of the virus) first appeared at the U.S. / Mexico border near where DynCorp has a security presence?
5) Why would the inventors of a key vaccine technology agree to hand over ownership of the patent to a private military contractor like DynCorp?
6) Why has nobody in the mainstream media noticed any of this yet (or not bothered to report on it?)
7) How much money is DynCorp collecting on the vaccine patents due to the sudden large-scale manufacture of swine flu vaccines taking place right now?

Why does the U.S. government continue to do business with criminally-minded organizations and incompetent vaccine manufacturers? The pieces of the puzzle (opinion).It’s difficult to consider all the evidence presented here and not come to the rational conclusion that something sinister is afoot in America today. Let me paint a picture for you of a plausible scenario of what I think is happening right now. Note, carefully, that this is merely speculation, but it’s a theory that makes sense:Back in the late 1990’s, evil leaders of the U.S. government decided they needed to launch a covert population control measure that could reduce the population while deflecting blame for the deaths. The obvious choice for this was a viral pandemic, so using the viral samples and knowledge already attained by U.S. Army virologists, they engineered a combination swine / avian / human influenza virus patterned after the 1918 influenza that devastated the world population nearly a century ago. The plan, of course, would be to release the virus into the wild and let nature do the rest.But killing off a lot of people isn’t profitable enough all by itself. The plan is a lot smarter if you add a profit center to it… and that’s where the vaccines come into play. First, the patents had to be secured in order to guarantee profitability. DynCorp was offered partial ownership of the patents (together with the National Institutes of Health) in exchange for its responsibility to covertly release the engineered virus in Mexico, assuring the global spread of the next influenza pandemic. It will be paid back in patent royalties from the pharmaceutical companies that are awarded the government-funded vaccine manufacturing contracts.Baxter was chosen by the U.S. government precisely because of its expertise in inserting live viruses into vaccine materials. And just to make sure the drug companies would play along, the U.S. government (under the Bush administration) granted them all complete immunity against product liability for all vaccines. This removed any financial risk from the drug companies while setting the stage for a massive human die-off following the vaccine injections.Once the injections begin and people start dying, the deaths will simply be blamed on the virus itself. The drug companies have complete legal immunity, and DynCorp gets its share of the profits as the holder of the patents. Key conspirators are rewarded with bonus stock options and / or the threat of being killed if they talk.

Through this plan, several important things are accomplished:1) The population gets reduced (with no blame on the national leaders).2) Billions of dollars get funneled to powerful corporations.3) The pandemic outbreak itself allows government to declare a State of Emergency where yet more rights and freedoms can be stolen away from the People. (And companies like DynCorp can be hired to run domestic prison camps or isolation camps.)4) The government and the pharmaceutical industry both get to position themselves as heroic for apparently attempting to stop the pandemic with vaccines. No matter how many people actually die, Big Pharma will claim many more would have died without the vaccine.5) Those who survive the pandemic (and the vaccine) become immune compromised due to the vaccine, and they later emerge as repeat customers for future medical procedures (cancer, Parkinson’s, etc.).

Of course, this is all just a theory. Some people might even call it a paranoid theory. But I ask them one question: Why does a top U.S. military contractor share ownership of key vaccine patents with the U.S. government’s National Institutes of Health? Merely attempting to explain that will lead you down the path to all kinds of eye-opening information about collusion between government, the pharmaceutical industry and the military-industrial complex. And you know what they all have in common? They’re all promoters of death.But it’s not enough to just kill you; they want to make money while they’re doing it.

Read your history
Finally, I feel the need to preempt the naive critics who will inevitably post comments to this story like, Corporations and governments would never knowingly harm people for power or profit.Such naivete is almost not worth responding to, but I’ll do it in advance just to be sure: Read your world history. Not only is world history full of examples of governments and corporations knowingly harming people for profit, it could be accurately stated that world history is largely a collection of precisely such things! Read your Noam Chomsky, or Naomi Klein, or Confessions of an Economic Hit Man by John Perkins. His newest book is a real eye-opener about the way governments really work: The Secret History of the American Empire: The Truth About Economic Hit Men, Jackals, and How to Change the World (http://www.amazon.com/Secret-Histor…).Although I can’t prove it yet, I believe this current swine flu vaccine push is also part of a grand military-industrial-pharmaceutical conspiracy designed to harm the people while extracting huge profits. Only time will tell if this is an accurate assessment of the current situation.In the mean time, you may wish to avoid being injected with viral material taken from African Green Monkeys (unless you’re some sort of sicko).

Do We Really NEED The Giant Banks? Washington’s Blog
Wednesday, August 5, 2009


Bernanke, Summers and Geithner say that we can’t let the giant banks fail, because – without them – the economy will be starved of credit and we will be plunged into a depression.This isn’t true.Says Who? If we really needed the giant banks, the following top economists and financial experts wouldn’t have said that the economy can only recover if the insolvent too big to fails are broken up:Nobel prize-winning economist Jospeph Stiglitz, MIT economics professor Simon Johnson and Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City President Thomas Hoenig (and see this) The Congressional panel overseeing the bailout The head of the FDIC, Sheila Bair The leading monetary economist and co-author with Milton Friedman of the leading treatise on the Great Depression, Anna Schwartz Economics professor and senior regulator during the S & L crisis, William K. Black Leading economist, Nouriel Roubini Well-known economist, Marc Faber Nobel economist, Ed Prescott Dean and professor of finance and economics at Columbia Business School, and chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers under President George W. Bush, R. Glenn Hubbard, and Professor of entrepreneurship and finance at the Chicago Booth School of Business, Luigi Zingales Economics professor Thomas F. Cooley The above-described leading economists wouldn’t have recommended breaking up the banking giants if they thought that their survival was necessary for an economic recovery. Other lending institutions can step up to the plate to make loans.

Small Banks Can Fill Big Shoes

Fortune pointed out in February that smaller banks are stepping in to fill the lending void left by the giant banks’ current hesitancy to make loans. Indeed, the article points out that the only reason that smaller banks haven’t been able to expand and thrive is that the too-big-to-fails have decreased competition:Growth for the nation’s smaller banks represents a reversal of trends from the last twenty years, when the biggest banks got much bigger and many of the smallest players were gobbled up or driven under…As big banks struggle to find a way forward and rising loan losses threaten to punish poorly run banks of all sizes, smaller but well capitalized institutions have a long-awaited chance to expand.

BusinessWeek noted in January:

As big banks struggle, community banks are stepping in to offer loans and lines of credit to small business owners…At a congressional hearing on small business and the economic recovery earlier this month, economist Paul Merski, of the Independent Community Bankers of America, a Washington (D.C.) trade group, told lawmakers that community banks make 20% of all small-business loans, even though they represent only about 12% of all bank assets. Furthermore, he said that about 50% of all small-business loans under $100,000 are made by community banks…Indeed, for the past two years, small-business lending among community banks has grown at a faster rate than from larger institutions, according to Aite Group, a Boston banking consultancy. Community banks are quickly taking on more market share not only from the top five banks but from some of the regional banks,says Christine Barry, Aite’s research director.They are focusing more attention on small businesses than before. They are seeing revenue opportunities and deploying the right solutions in place to serve these customers.

And Fed Governor Daniel K. Tarullo said in June:

The importance of traditional financial intermediation services, and hence of the smaller banks that typically specialize in providing those services, tends to increase during times of financial stress. Indeed, the crisis has highlighted the important continuing role of community banks…For example, while the number of credit unions has declined by 42 percent since 1989, credit union deposits have more than quadrupled, and credit unions have increased their share of national deposits from 4.7 percent to 8.5 percent. In addition, some credit unions have shifted from the traditional membership based on a common interest to membership that encompasses anyone who lives or works within one or more local banking markets. In the last few years, some credit unions have also moved beyond their traditional focus on consumer services to provide services to small businesses, increasing the extent to which they compete with community banks.

Big Banks Aren’t Really Focusing On the Lending Business Anyway

Since Glass-Steagal (the law saying banks couldn’t use their customer’s deposits to make speculative investments) was repealed in 1999, the giant banks have made most of their money in trading assets, securities, derivatives and other speculative bets, the banks’ own paper and securities, and in other money-making activities which have nothing to do with traditional depository functions.Now that the economy has crashed, the big banks are making very few loans to consumers or small businesses because they still have trillions in bad derivatives gambling debts to pay off, and so they are only loaning to the biggest players and those who don’t really need credit in the first place. See this and this.So we don’t need these giant gamblers. We don’t need JP Morgan, Citi, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs or Morgan Stanley. What we need are lenders.Small Banks Can Do Things Better Than Giants.The above-described Fortune article also points out that the banking giants are not necessarily more efficient than smaller banks:The largest banks often don’t show the greatest efficiency. This now seems unsurprising given the deep problems that the biggest institutions have faced over the past year.They actually experience diseconomies of scale, Narter wrote of the biggest banks.There are so many large autonomous divisions of the bank that the complexity of connecting them overwhelms the advantage of size.And Governor Tarullo points out some of the benefits of small community banks over the giant banks:

Many community banks have thrived, in large part because their local presence and personal interactions give them an advantage in meeting the financial needs of many households, small businesses, and agricultural firms. Their business model is based on an important economic explanation of the role of financial intermediaries–to develop and apply expertise that allows a lender to make better judgments about the creditworthiness of potential borrowers than could be made by a potential lender with less information about the borrowers.A small, but growing, body of research suggests that the financial services provided by large banks are less-than-perfect substitutes for those provided by community banks.It is simply not true that we need the mega-banks. In fact, as many top economists and financial analysts have said, the too big to fails are actually stifling competition from smaller lenders and credit unions, and dragging the entire economy down into a black hole.

FRANCE THE BIGGEST SELLER Central Bank net gold sales show huge drop in first half 2009 A report by GFMS for Societe Generale suggests the volume of Central Bank gold sales this year is likely to be among the lowest on record.Author: Lawrence Williams Tuesday , 04 Aug 2009

LONDON - In a report released Monday, precious metals consultancy GFMS, for Societe Generale, looked at the recent rate and volume of gold sales from official sources and concluded that in the first half of the current year the net sales volume was a relatively minuscule 39 tonnes - down a massive 73% year on year. Indeed in the second quarter, GFMS estimates that banks were net buyers of gold after being net sellers in the first quarter.In effect, the majority of these sales came from within the Central Bank Gold Agreement, with its signatories selling some 92 tonnes, but this was offset by net purchases from Central Banks and institutions in other countries which turned out to be net buyers of around 56 tonnes.There were also a few tonnes of sales from banks outside the CBGA. GFMS notes that all these figures may be subject to alteration due to the lag that often exists between Central Bank activity in the gold market taking place and it being identified.The biggest sellers of gold in the period included France which had announced some time back that it would sell 600 tonnes over the life of the five-year CBGA, which ends on September 26th. France sold some 44 tonnes in the first five months of the year and it is likely, says GFMS, that it would also have sold a little more in June. With a total of 576 tonnes of sales over nearly 5 years under the Agreement up until May that left only a further 24 tonnes to sell June to September.

The second biggest seller was the European Central Bank with 35.5 tonnes.

There are a few Central Banks which still have gold to sell under announced gold sales programmes, but these in total amount to very little, and GFMS reckons that in the second half of 2009 Central Bank sales will remain fairly low at around 100 tonnes which would mean that net official sector sales in 2009 overall, at some 140 tonnes, would be at the lowest level since 1994's trough of 130 tonnes. On the proposed IMF sales of 403.3 tonnes GFMS points out that this still requires a deciding vote by Fund members. While this is not expected to reverse the sales decision, the vote is not expected to take place until the final quarter of the year so it is unlikely that any IMF gold will come on to the market in 2009. And, in any case when it does, the gold is to be sold in an orderly manner, probably within a renewed CBGA which is currently under negotiation. On China, which announced a 454 tonne increase in its gold holdings earlier this year, GFMS expects it to continue to be a net buyer in order to diversify its reserve portfolio away from the dollar. However the consultancy rules out any direct, large scale purchases on the open market as these would, the report states not only have a profound impact on the gold market but would also potentially place the value of its US dollar holdings under extreme pressure and, to put it mildly, complicate the country's relations with the United States, its largest trading partner.Thus instead of more visible and highly sensitive transactions in the international market, we may see further discreet and relatively modest official purchases in the local gold market.Overall, GFMS concludes that the official sector will remain an important focus for the market particularly given changing attitudes towards gold in a monetary context and global pressure for a fundamental change to the international financial system.

Geithner Warns Regulators to Back Reform Plan Tuesday, 4 Aug 2009 | 3:54 AM ET Text Size By: Reuters

U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner issued a stern warning punctuated with expletives to U.S. regulators to end turf battles and show support for President Barack Obama's plan to overhaul financial regulation, a person familiar with the situation said on Monday.At a tense, hour-long meeting on Friday, Geithner told Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Mary Schapiro and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp Chairman Sheila Bair to end recent public criticism of the plan and stop airing concerns over their potential loss of authority.The Wall Street Journal, which first reported the meeting, said that Geithner vented frustration over the plan's slow progress and told regulators that enough is enough.Citing people familiar with the meeting, the newspaper also said that the Treasury Secretary used obscenities and took an aggressive stance in his dressing down of the regulators.A Treasury Department spokesman, Andrew Williams, said Geithner was resolute in his message.We planned this meeting as a venue to deliver a tough message to regulators that we should work together to get reform done - and focus less on protecting turf.Williams said.Spokespersons for the Fed, the SEC and the FDIC did not immediately return calls seeking comment.

Obama in June unveiled a financial regulatory overhaul, sometimes called the biggest since the 1930s. Among other things, the plan would give the Fed added powers, award the government more power to break up troubled companies, and create a new agency to oversee consumer finance.Many major banks and industry trade groups however have criticized the plan, as have some regulators wary that any redistribution of power would reduce their own. Even though the regulators are viewed as independent of the White House, the Journal said Geithner told attendees that the administration and Congress set policy.It also said the Treasury Secretary, without singling out officials, raised concerns about regulators who have questioned the wisdom of giving the Fed more power.Schapiro and Bair have argued that more authority should be shared among a council of regulators.

Privacy in America Is Dead JGary D. Barnett Lew Rockwell.com
Wednesday, August 5, 2009


What in the hell is going on? Have most all in this country lost their minds and their spirit, or concerning freedom, is apathy all that remains? Oh to be a conspiracy theorist! Everything today in actuality is conspiratorial, and those who have been continuously demoralized for their constant suspicions of government are now the only sane ones left. This is evident because 1984 is no longer fiction; it is reality! The latest crime in a long line of usurpations of liberty by government evildoers has now effectively eliminated privacy as we know it. As reported on LRC and told by Glenn Beck, anyone accessing the cash for clunkers program literally gives up ownership of their computer to the federal government. Before you say or even think anything, please understand that I fully realize that no real libertarian would ever take government cash in the form of welfare. You might say that those taking taxpayer cash for a car deserve to be monitored for participating in this government redistribution scheme, but you may want to think before you speak. If government can get into their computers, it can just as easily get into yours. This invasion is only the tip of the iceberg. All should be alarmed and all should be wary of current events. The government has become so brazen that it fears not any citizen outrage or exposure over its stealing of rights. The actions of government are exposed and openly discussed, but few it seems take heed.

The text of the Privacy Act and Security Statement at cars.gov, reads as follows:This application provides access to the DOT CARS system. When logged into the CARS system, your computer is considered a Federal computer system, and is the property of the U.S. Government. Any or all uses of this system and all files on this system may be intercepted, monitored, recorded, copied, audited, inspected, and disclosed to authorized CARS, DOT and law enforcement personnel, as well as authorized officials of other agencies, both domestic and foreign.(Emphasis mine)Yes, you read that right. The government now claims to own your computer, and every single file and every single piece of information on your computer. Not only does government now own it, but it can use that information to harm and arrest you, to share your private information with anyone or any entity it chooses, including the police state enforcers, and at any time. In addition, once the government is inside, it never leaves! This is done by the way, without any probable cause and no warrant is ever issued.Many will say, as is always the case,Well, this doesn’t apply to me, because I’m not getting any cash for clunkers.Ah contraire! I am continually amazed at the gullibility of the masses, and this is why I think that conspiracy nuts and government watchdogs are the brightest among us and the ones always prepared for the inevitable fall. I wish there were many more people who were as skeptical of government.

Now let’s get to the meat of it! This tyrannical and fascist federal government can do virtually anything it wants to, and at any time, and will do so under the guise of legality.Yes, in today’s world, everything the government does to us and against us is claimed to be legal. That is because it is the law.Once law became positive instead of negative, freedom took a proverbial back seat. Oh, if only freedom today could still be in the back seat, instead of locked away in the trunk. As Frederic Bastiat said; Law is force. This has never been more evident than it is today. This is obviously not a force for good (actually no such force exists) but a force used to advance the immoral and evil police state. My God, what have we allowed to happen?
To examine just a handful of adverse consequences due to recent events should help us all to understand the implications of our complacency. If government can take over, monitor and consume everything on your computer if you access the CARS site, then it stands to reason that government probably is already or has the capability to get inside all private computer systems. What if you have a phone line linked through your computer such as Vonage, Skype, etc.? We all know that our phones have been tapped and monitored for some time. So doesn’t it stand to reason that if the government wants on your computer and only has to access a phone line to do so, it will? What if you have visited any government website? Doesn’t it also stand to reason that if the government can access any computer that logs on to the cash for clunkers site, it can do the same with any government site via tracking cookies, etc.? And how many sites are government-controlled? Every time I check river water levels for fishing conditions, I’m on a government site. Every time I check the weather on NOAA; every time I check government unemployment, spending, and deficit numbers; every time I check current legislation pending in congress, and on and on, I am linked to a government computer. Given what is going on with the CARS site, couldn’t my computer be compromised in any of these situations?

Add to this:Financial transaction monitoring and data-basing of private information that is taking place every day via financial institutions.Intrusions concerning anti-money laundering legislation.Unconstitutional wiretaps.Unconstitutional searches
TSA (enough said)Government and police-state camera monitoring.Census invasions and data-basing of individual’s private information.GPS monitoring by government of every home in America.Medical record consolidation and capture by government.Real ID or the now PASS ID systems.These are but a few of the invasions and monitoring techniques used by government. Many, many more examples exist and many more are unknown. In other words, everything we do is watched, monitored, and data-based; our privacy invaded and our natural rights trampled.The military industrial complex is now also a domestic police force; ready, willing and able to do the bidding of Leviathan. It can and will be used to stop civil unrest, to force mandatory vaccinations, to imprison those willing to stand their ground, to disarm and evacuate by force citizens from their homes, and to uphold Martial Law if ordered to do so. In addition, most every domestic police force is now militarized.The elite in our society, along with the powerbrokers in politics will be protected from this scourge, but the rest of us will suffer the consequences of our lost freedom. As is continually uttered by the conservative crowd, Freedom is not free,but no armed government agent in the military industrial complex has or ever will protect our freedom; quite the contrary. Only we as individuals can retain and save our liberty.

Many brutal political leaders of the past like Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Mussolini attempted to monitor and control all citizens and their behavior. The end results were telling, and they were horrible. Mass murder at the hands of the state was the rule not the exception. Starvation was prevalent and sickness was constant. Wars consumed production and economies collapsed. Freedom was unheard of during the reign of these monsters. Can you imagine the political and monitoring capabilities of today being available to those brutal tyrants of the past? There is a reason that the U.S. federal government has taken over and co-opted all the means of society. This same government now controls and monitors all money, banking, transportation, health care, police, and communication, including the internet. Those dictators I mentioned above did not have this capability, and still mass oppression won the day. If this history is any guide, our future looks bleak.All power and control lies in the hands of the few who claim to represent us. They are collectively the autocratic federal government. Life’s lessons tell us that those who have the power make the rules. Any who believe that these rules will benefit life, liberty and property are fools, and are doomed to the inevitable and disastrous repeat of history. The power possessed by these current tyrants will not be reined in by change as the political process is forever flawed. No, this power must be eliminated!

ALLTIME
