More on the Domestic Situation....

Watching the Empires Fall
Quote of the Day...."Increasingly, Washington, D.C. has become known around the world a big-mouthed, kickback-taking, fat, donut-eating cop with an attitude. Of all the parties in Washington D.C. who are part and parcel of this problem, I find that the U.S. Congress is most accurately described this way. Present company excluded, most of Congress can’t find the Constitution with both hands and a flashlight. What’s worse, only a few of them are even looking for it. The correction of our American direction, our path into a future of prosperity and peace, will not come from the present crowd of Congressmen and women. The global empire is falling away, collapsing under its own weight, being crushed by its own awful corruption and shattered by its frozen and arrogant ideology. It is sinking like the Titanic in icy water and it is taking down many unprepared and unlucky people down with it."

NYC Department of Buildings: World Trade Center Buildings 1, 2 and 7 Deemed “Sensitive Buildings”, Plans Exempt From Disclosure - And the 9/11 cover-up continues. - mpg -- A quote...."(911Blogger) – Within a September 13, 2011 FOI response from the New City Department of Buildings (DoB), it is noted that World Trade Center Buildings 1, 2 and 7 have been deemed sensitive buildings and thus, plans for these buildings have been exempted from disclosure by statute because “if disclosed, the documents requested would endanger the life or safety of any person.” " - also posted at DProgram

Fast, Furious and False
Fast & Furious File - More On The Lying Liar -- A quote..."So what did Attorney General Eric Holder know about the controversial Fast and Furious operation that put thousands of U.S. guns in the hands of Mexican drug lords and when did he know it? -- Holder told the Judiciary Committee May 3, “I’m not sure of the exact date, but I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks.” -- But in a newly discovered July 2010 memo Michael Walther, director of the National Drug Intelligence Center, told Holder that straw buyers in the Fast and Furious operation “are responsible for the purchase of 1,500 firearms that were then supplied to the Mexican drug trafficking cartels.”"

With the full knowledge of the Department of Justice, ATF agents facilitated the sale of thousands of guns to Mexican drug cartels and dropped all surveillance of those weapons once they crossed the border."

Obama’s Very Real Death Panel
A quote...."It’s official. The American dystopia is here. Obama administration officials admit that the CIA assassination program that snuffed out Anwar al-Awlaki last Friday is guided by a secret panel that decides who lives and dies."

Will Obama Goons Provoke Riots Using Occupy Wall Steet As An Excuse to Bring In Martial Law?
A quote...."The globalist are in the stage of desperation being between a rock and a hard place. They can back off and allow the economy to recover. They will not get their New World Order in the time they want. The other risk they run backing off is these oligarchs might be arrested and tried. The whole fiat money scam will be exposed forever shutting down the Federal Reserve Bank. Their Front man President Obama is running out of choices. "

Obama tries to exploit #OccupyWallStreet
A quote...."Dear President Pussy  ---  You campaigned on that same platform of banking reform, Wall Street Regulation, and populist anger at the economy. -- You also promised to end the wars. -- In three years you have not kept any of those promises. The wars have expanded, Wall Street still loots the public with impunity, you have personally increased government debt by more than all your predecessors put together, and manufacturing is still fleeing the nation due to government tax incentives. -- So now you have the chutzpah to stand up there...." -- *Michael Rivero*

Wall Street Runs America
A quote...."Major Wall Street banks occupy and control Washington. They recycle their officials in and out, make policy, and enforce it with money power supremacy for virtually everything they want. -- Political Washington salutes and obeys. Money power in private hands and democracy can't co-exist. It buys what it wants at the expense of government of, by and for the people. It never was and isn't now." - Source:  SteveLendman

Obama and Congress ARE Wall Street, Geithner IS the Federal Reserve - Now What?
Special Note - Analysis - A quote...."Some very well-meaning people have suggested apparent solutions to alleviate some of these challenges.  Some have called for a separation of money and politics.  Some have called for ending the Federal Reserve System.  Some have suggested a complete write-off of all fraudulent debt. Some want higher taxes imposed on the well-to-do.  Some demand more free government services like healthcare and higher education.  Some say ending the wars at home and abroad will be the cure-all.  Each of these proposed solutions seem to have some attraction, but they also have flaws that need to be addressed."

Guest Post: The Way Out Of Our Economic Mess
A quote...."A rock and a hard place" is a long-running theme of Casey Research publications. It refers to the dilemma the US government has wandered into with its continued policy of rescue inflation. The "rock" is what will happen if the Fed pauses for long in printing still more money – the collapse of an economy burdened by an accumulation of mistakes that rescue inflation has been keeping at bay. The "hard place" is the disruptive price inflation that becomes more likely (and likely more severe) with every new dollar the Fed prints to keep the effects of those mistakes suppressed."

Obama Has Now Increased Debt More than All Presidents from George Washington Through George H.W. Bush Combined - A quote...."(CNSNews.com) - The Obama administration passed another fiscal milestone this week, according to new data released by the Treasury Department. As of the close of business on Oct. 3, the total national debt was $14,837,099,271,196.71—up about $44.8 billion from Sept. 30. -- That means that in the less-than-three-years Obama has been in office, the federal debt has increased by $4.212 trillion--more than the total national debt of about $4.1672 trillion accumulated by all 41 U.S. presidents from George Washington through George H.W. Bush combined." - bold/underline by website editor

Euro Rumormill Disintegration Begins As Reality Returns: France, Germany Fail To Reach Agreement On EFSF
This can't even be classified as a "Financial Alert" because it was expected by every single economic pundit out there....except the "market".  All one can do is scratch one's head in perplexed wonder....mpg - A quote...."In our previous post we warned, indirectly through the IMF, that the biggest risk for Europe is the inability to reach consensus over anything from the most complicated, to the simplest matter. As noted previously, one of the main initial drivers of the market surge which has since translated into yet another short covering rally of epic proportions was the belief that Europe can actually come together in agreement over the simplest thing - like its own survival. Alas, it appears even that is not the case."

Well, it's called the "prisoner's dilemma".  It all comes down to a matter of "trust". 
Three propositions so utterly, ridiculously and completely implausible that no one, absolutely NO ONE actually believed they would be acted on, or come to pass....except for those who invest in the stock "market" on Wall Street. - mpg

Dexia Breakup May Make Investors Losers Holding Little Value
A quote...."Oct. 6 (Bloomberg) -- Dexia SA's planned breakup to protect its Belgian depositors and its municipal-lending business in France may leave little value for its shareholders. -- About 15 years after the French-Belgian bank was created in a merger and after about 100 billion euros ($133 billion) in public guarantees and funds kept the lender afloat in the 2008- 2009 period, France and Belgium are trying to split up its assets in a manner designed to avoid injecting more capital."

Related Article - Whatever happened to all those "green shoots", or was that just some sort of American thing?? - mpg -- A quote...."The fragile finances of families, savers and pensioners suffered a huge blow yesterday when the Bank of England launched a desperate new bid to stave off recession."
More money printing? My masters are you mad?
Related Second Quote of the Day...."According to the BBC, the Bank of England has decided to 'inject a further £75 billion into the economy'. Who knew it was that easy? I mean, why not inject £500 billion? Or a trillion? By the BBC's logic, it would surely make us the wealthiest nation on Earth. -- I can't believe I'm having to write this, but nothing new will be manufactured, invented or developed  as the result of this monetary splurge, no services offered, no businesses founded. Rather, the money already in circulation – the money in your bank account, in your purse, under your mattress – will be worth less. The government, in other words, is helping itself to your savings – and, in doing so, is damaging productivity, disincentivising work and weakening the competitiveness of the British economy."

EU Commission President, Jose Manuel Barroso, said there were plans to recapitalise them. There's doubt that the next bailout installment for Greece will actually go ahead, and fallout from the country's resulting default would deal a severe blow to Europe's banking sector."

Democrats blame China, not Wall Street
A quote...."The bill that was poised for passage in the US Senate Thursday with bipartisan support, mandating a US currency war with China, is a cynical diversion. Amid a rising tide of protest directed against Wall Street, the Democrats are taking the lead in an effort to provide a foreign scapegoat for the crisis of American capitalism."

Wall Street protesters fed up with both parties

Occupy Main Street
Special Note - A quote...."06 Oct 2011 The deregulation, the bailouts, the hoarding, the investment boycott, the austerity measures, the imperialist wars, the political and economic inaction and indifference – these are all symptomatic of the same crisis and cannot simply be attributed to individual character flaws or even to political desiderata. Certainly the system produces the very monsters and policies that the protesters declaim. But their existence and behavior is an utterly predictable product of objective historical conditions."

The Occupy Wall Street phenom is going viral, diversifying like a stock portfolio and popping up all over the US and in other countries as well. Look at the media not covering it. Look at the media giving out false information concerning the motivation, even to the extent of saying the protestors are protesting against people making 40 to 50 thousand dollars a year, as well as global warming. Understand that the media is owned and operated by the same people who operate and influence Wall Street." - also posted at DProgram

A quote...."Hamsayeh.Net - Perhaps too late but Russian officials now begin to realize that their recent compliance over US-led NATO missions in and around oil-rich regions have seriously hurt Moscow's strategic interests."

Libya: NATO Provides the Bombs; The French "Left" Provides the Ideology
A quote...."Libération published the letter in which the National Transitional Council (NTC) promised to grant 35% of concessions to the French petroleum giant Total "in exchange" (the term used) for French military engagement (a document which naturally triggered a hasty denial from the Quai d'Orsay).  The fight for freedom is such a noble cause.  The author nevertheless concluded his article by taking note of "the strong odor of petroleum hanging over the whole business." -- Indeed.  But nevertheless, his approach was no different from that of all the Western leaders and media.  In particular, he accepted the analysis of the Libyan uprising as an active part of the "Arab spring."  Lumping events together in that way disregards the reality of each separate nation.  And in this case it is even the opposite of the truth."

Costs of UK’s colonial war in Libya spiral

A quote...."For over six and a half months, Libyans tied down the world's mightiest military force despite overwhelming odds against them and enormous loss of life and human suffering. - Established in 1949, NATO was never a "military alliance for peace and security." It was for offense, not defense. Cold War hysteria was contrived to incite fear and assure an arms race for corporate dominance and enrichment. - Twenty years after Soviet Russia dissolved, NATO interventions under US control [to] threaten world peace and humanity, lurching from one [contrived] war to another."

Website editor's caution:  Regarding the videos shown below....Morris obviously gets much of his information from the Green resistance or their supporters.  A lot of it is impossible to confirm, there are undoubtedly exagerations of their battlefield successes. Not so much the atrocities committed by the rebels and NATO because many of these have been independently confirmed.  The intel on who the "rebels" actually are appears to be spot on, again confirmed by other sources. - mpg

Special Note - A quote...."After the last Depression, Congress enacted a law, Glass-Steagall, which forbid banks, insurance companies, and investment houses to be in the same institution, to deter reckless speculation with depositors' money, which was seen as a major contributor to the stock market instability of the time. Then in 1999, at the height of the "Deregulation" craze, Citigroup and Travelers merged, a clear violation of Glass-Steagall. But rather than enforce the law, Congress repealed the prohibitions of Glass-Steagall with the passage of the 1999 Financial Services Act. -- That opened the floodgates for runaway financial speculation. Wall Street knew that if they made money they would be allowed to keep it, but if their investments lost money, the US Government would step in to transfer the losses to the American people, because that is what had been demonstrated during the S&L debacle of the 1980s." -- *Michael Rivero*

The Anglo-Euro-Banks Credibility Crisis Deepens....

US Closes 2010-2011 Fiscal Year With $14,790,340,328,557.15 In Debt, $95 Billion Jump On The Day, $1.2 Trillion Increase In One Year -- Day One - (end of the US-NRE's fiscal year) -- A quote...."America has now officially closed the books on the 2010-2011 fiscal year. It is only fitting that the last day of the year saw the settlement of all outstanding and recently auctioned off debt. The result: a surge of $95 billion in total government debt overnight, and a fiscal year closing with the absolutely unprecedented $14,790,340,328,557.15 in debt. Net net, in the past fiscal year, the US has issued a total of $1.228 trillion in new debt and [this] has [only] accelerated over time." - bold/underline by website editor

US Starts New Fiscal Year With $14.837 Trillion In Debt, $142 Billion Increase In Two Days
Day Two - (next day, start of the US-NRE's new fiscal year) -- A quote...."Anyone tearing their hair out trying to answer how it is that this great Keynesian experiment of a nation managed to sneek by with so little new incremental debt over the past month can now relax. As Zero Hedge reported yesterday, the US closed out Fiscal 2010-2011 with a $95 billion surge in debt in one day brining the total to just under $14.8 trillion. That, however was not nearly enough to settle all outstanding debt, and on the first day of the next fiscal year, Timmy G added another $47 billion in debt, to have a closing balance of $14.837 trillion on the first day of the 2011-2012 fiscal year. In other words, in just the past two work days, America has technically settled a whopping $142 billion in debt." - bold/underline by website editor

Latin America: Growth, Stability and Inequalities: Lessons for the US and EU
Must Read - A quote...."October 02, 2011 "Information Clearing House" -- The image of Latin America portrayed by the mass media and held by the educated public is a region of frequent coups, periodical revolutions, perpetual military dictatorships, alternating boom and bust economies and an ever-present International Monetary Fund (IMF) dictating economic policy. -- In contrast the same opinion makers plus their academic counterparts project images of the United States and the European Union as stable societies, with steady economic growth, incremental expansion of social welfare programs, resolving issues via consensual compromises and practicing sound fiscal policies. -- In recent times, the better part of the current decade, these images have taken on the character of ideological dogmas – they no longer correspond to reality. In fact a good argument can be made that the roles have been reversed: the US and EU are in perpetual crises and Latin America, at least most of the major countries, have experienced stability and growth which is the envy (or should be) of Washington pundits and financial commentators." - Source:  JamesPetras

The problem is, Maher has picked a meaningless fight with David Ray Griffin and Bruce Lawrence in an apparent attempt to obscure the indisputable fact that the video is indeed bogus - a forgery – and a clear case of obstruction of justice, incitement to genocide, and a long list of other crimes; and that Bin Laden was obviously innocent of the crimes of 9/11/2001."

Is The War On Terror A Hoax?
Must Read - A quote...."September 30, 2011 "Information Clearing House" --  In the past decade, Washington has killed, maimed, dislocated, and made widows and orphans millions of Muslims in six countries, all in the name of the “war on terror.” Washington’s attacks on the countries constitute naked aggression and impact primarily civilian populations and infrastructure and, thereby, constitute war crimes under law. Nazis were executed precisely for what Washington is doing today. -- Moreover the wars and military attacks have cost American taxpayers in out-of-pocket and already-incurred future costs at least $4,000 billion dollars--one third of the accumulated public debt--resulting in a US deficit crisis that threatens the social safety net, the value of the US dollar and its reserve currency role, while enriching beyond all previous history the military/security complex and its apologists." - also posted at Hamsayeh

What is the mainstream media NOT reporting?
A quote...."In George Orwell's oft-quoted and insightful book 1984, we clearly see how this work of fiction has become reality, and in turn how reality is turned back into fiction through the manipulative, inaccurate and deceptive reporting of mainstream media. As Orwell accurately wrote...."

"Day by day and almost minute by minute the past was brought up to date. In this way every prediction made by the Party could be shown by documentary evidence to have been correct; nor was any item of news, or any expression of opinion, which conflicted with the needs of the moment, ever allowed to remain on record. All history was a palimpsest, scraped clean and reinscribed exactly as often as was necessary."

"Debt -- And life under a government that spies on you, erodes your civil rights, reads your email, loots your computers, tracks your every move, works to keep you dependent both emotionally and physically, indeed works to keep you a mental slave because they fear you and the possibility that you might say "no" at some point in the future." -- *Michael Rivero*

Therefore, there is no agency that is more completely under the domination of the industry that it is supposed to control. (The CIA and the NSA are not representatives of industries. They are separate fiefdoms.) -- If the United States Army were this insulated from politics, [It is, it's called the "Military Industrial Complex" or by it's lesser nom de guerre, the "Iron Triangle". But the Banksters are the top dogs, they own the war industries, they print the money to fund their wars. - mpg] the USA would live in a militarized society. The Army would run the show. Its only major rivals would be the Air Force, the CIA, the NSA, the FBI, and the Federal Reserve. To imagine that Congress would have any say in such a society would be naive. The defense industry would be the premier industry in the society. -- Our society is a bankers' society, meaning [it is run by] a handful of large banks. The supreme mark of this is the openly announced independence of the [privately owned] Federal Reserve from politics. No other agency of government has publicly claimed this degree of independence from politics, which means independence from the voters." - bold by website editor

Europe Must Fight Back Against US-UK Speculative Attacks
A quote...."The speculative attack by Wall Street and City of London banks and hedge funds against European countries, European banks, and the euro is now reaching a crescendo. The current European crisis does not derive primarily from economic fundamentals, but rather represents a cynically planned assault carried out by Anglo-American financiers, whose philosophy is the traditional Beggar My Neighbor. The goal is to shift the epicenter of the world economic and financial depression from London and New York onto the continent of Europe, and this operation has already partially succeeded. London and New York are exporting their own derivatives depression into the EU, using credit default swaps, corrupt credit ratings agencies, and their entire panoply of financial dirty tricks.

The United Nations Security Council passed two resolutions against Libya on the basis of unproven claims, specifically that Colonel Muammar Qaddafi was killing his own people in Benghazi and Libya.

It involves halving Greece's debts to German and French banks, repeating the 21% "haircut" default of last July. This in turn will hurt the banks more than they might stand, so the second part of the plan props them with urgent subsidies. In a third part, some 2 trillion euros would be tipped into the European central bank, somehow to "firewall" the sovereign debts of Portugal and Ireland and perhaps even Italy and Spain. -- This plan is first aid at the scene of the accident. But when all bad options have failed, desperate men turn to worse ones."

"How do status-quo leaders respond to this age-old problem? -- One of their most effective techniques is to create, lead, or manipulate the opposition. -- In Orwell’s 1984, for example, we learn that opposition leader Emmanuel Goldstein, or at least his book, is the creation of the Party elite. -- It is my contention that the element of Western leadership behind the 9/11 false-flag attacks has also been trying to control its opposition, with mixed success." - also posted at MyCatBird'sSeat

Zionist Denials

This is broadly similar to the reporting of incidents such as Tiananmen Square where the state party has acted in a non-transparent fashion and has allowed a presumption of guilt to be widely (though not necessarily generally) held."

9/11 Covered-Up - A quote...."With the stroke of his pen, Judge Hellerstein very cleverly changed this lawsuit.
