Federal
Reserve
Act
Has
a
Backout
Clause
A quote...."No Congress, no President has been strong enough to
stand
up to the foreign-controlled Federal Reserve Bank. Yet there is a
catch
- one that President Kennedy recognized before he was slain - the original deal in 1913 creating the
Federal Reserve Bank had a simple backout clause.
"The investors loaned the United States Government $1 billion. And
the
backout clause allows the United States to buy out the system for
that
$1 billion. If the Federal Reserve Bank were demolished and the
Congress of the United States took control of the currency, as
required
in the Constitution, the National Debt would virtually end
overnight,
and the need for more taxes and even the income tax, itself."
"Thomas Jefferson was concise in his early warning to the American
nation, "If the American people ever allow private banks to control
the
issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by
deflation,
the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will
deprive
the people of all their property until their children will wake up
homeless on the continent their fathers conquered." -- Join and
organize to END the FED." - bold by website editor

The Great Escape - A
quote...."It was one of the great prison escapes in history in terms
of
the ingenuity and perseverance of those involved. It happened at
10pm
on April 25 this year in southern Afghanistan when, after five
months tunnelling, Taliban diggers finally broke through the
concrete
floor of a cell in the centre of Sarposa prison on the outskirts of
the
city of Kandahar. Behind them snaked a tunnel three foot high and
almost 1,200 feet long that led under the prison walls to a house on
the far side of a main road. During the next five hours some
541prisoners, one of them with a broken leg, crawled their way to
freedom. Only when the guards tried to hold their regular roll call
in
the prison yard later in the morning did they discover the empty
cells
from which had vanished some of the most dangerous prisoners in the
world."

Special Note - also posted at Hamsayeh
The PNAC
Protocols are being followed
--
even after more than ten years of
horrendously expensive, and morally catastrophic acts of murder
and
mayhem --
to the letter.
This is a demonstrable tragedy
for this nation and the
peoples of the world. It is also an absolute moral outrage
that
almost
all of this destruction is being done on behalf of just six
million
Jews living here in this country, (2% of the population), and five
million Jews living in
Israel. It is of course
a true fact that many Jews do not
support these policies....yet
it
is
also a true fact that these "plans"....
- Were designed -- in the end -- to improve the geo-political
position of the state of Israel, and....
- Were authored and sponsored primarily by members of the
"Jewish community" on behalf of that "community's" agenda,
and....
- Are STILL, to this very day, being supported, expanded, and
further
implemented, by the "Jewish community's" money, political
influence and
its substantial control over
this nation's media and intellectual establishments.
Those members of the "Jewish
community" living here and in Israel who
disagree with these plans MUST acknowledge them for the heinous
crimes
that they are, they will HAVE TO DENOUNCE these plans, BY NAME, and
author, and DISOWN their fellow brethren and the state of Israel which
laid
these
plans
down
more
than
thirty
years
ago and are currently
helping to carry them out.
It would be MUCH better if
members of the "Jewish community" deal
with this situation, their wayward members, and their wayward
state, as
harshly, publicly and vociferously as they possibly can rather
then
leaving
it up to others in the future, who may be.....less constrained in
doing
so. - mpg

Is
Obama's
Libyan
Attack
Legal
or
Not?
Special Note - A
quote...."Obama's being hassled because he's dropping bombs and
bullets
on Libyan targets without Congressional permission, a clear
violation
of the War Powers Resolution per some Republicans and
Democrats.
Some estimates say that a year of it will cost $160 B. Obama
says
it's within his powers because, though he can't declare war, this
isn't
war; it's a "kinetic military action," whatever that means. -- He
goes
on to say that ground troops aren't exchanging fire, which adds to
the
non-warishness. But Libyans bombed or rocketed to death from
the
sky are still dead. It's not clear that the dead Libyans would
appreciate the neat distinction. The Libyans themselves are
pretty clearly having a civil war; Obama is killing more of the
folks
on one side than he is those on the other, though he hasn't
discriminated entirely. Apparently, it can be hard to tell
which
side he's shooting at from the air. That they are having a war
seems to be clear to the Libyans even if it isn't clear to Obama."
The
War
on
the
Word
"War"
A quote...."In other words, the balance of forces is so lopsided in
favor of the United States that no Americans are dying or are
threatened with dying. War is only war, it seems, when Americans are
dying, when we die. When only they, the Libyans, die, it is
something else for which there is as yet apparently no name. When
they
attack, it is war. When we attack, it is not. -- This cannot be
classified as anything but strange thinking and it depends, in turn,
on
a strange fact: that, in our day, it is indeed possible for some
countries (or maybe only our own), for the first time in history, to
wage war without receiving a scratch in return." - also posted at ICH

ago,
when elsewhere they were footing the blame for the Black Plague,
Kasmierz the Great, so called, told the Jews they could come to
Krakow.
They came. They trundled their belongings into the city. They
settled;
they took hold; they prospered in business, science, education,
the
arts. They came here with nothing. Nothing. And they flourished.
For
six centuries, there has been a Jewish Krakow. Think about that.
By this evening, those six centuries
are a
rumor. They never happened. Today is history." -- *

Imperial
overstretch threatens as US, NATO wage five wars:
Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Libya, and Yemen – Are Syria, Iran,
Lebanon next? -- Washington DC, June 20- With the previously
covert US
bombing of Yemen out in the open, the Obama administration is now
waging illegal wars against at least five countries – Afghanistan,
Iraq, Pakistan, Libya, and Yemen. Given Obama’s absurd and
Orwellian
theory that acts of war from the air in the sea do not constitute
hostilities under the terms of the War Powers Act, this list may
be
incomplete, and stealth US attacks may be going on elsewhere as
well.
As spring turns into summer along the banks of the Potomac, there
are
signs that Obama’s next move may be a trifecta of aggression – an
attack on Syria which would also embroil the US in war with Iran
and
with the Hezbollah forces of Lebanon. Or, the Obama rampage may
strike
Pakistan. The “Arab Spring” of color revolutions, military coups,
and
destabilizations is moving inexorably towards a possible world
conflagration whose outlines are already visible."

transfer the bulk of its ground forces from a military base in the

of Heidelberg in southwestern Germany. Other troops will arrive

straightforward. They do not like the what the administration says

them. They say things that Riyadh does not want to hear and, in
their
ears, sound downright dangerous. For instance, the Obama
administration
has advised the Saudis, and the rest of the rulers in the Arab
world,
to get out ahead of the region’s growing protest movements and
make
democratic reforms. The Saudis have no tradition of democracy
beyond
the tribal advisory council. Before they were kings and princes,
they
were desert sheiks. Obama’s advice sounds like an erstwhile ally
telling them to surrender. In the Bedouin tradition strong leaders
do
not surrender without a struggle." -

how to quickly disable the military parafernalia it has sold to

a
diplomat, then the west has little to worry about
intelligence-wise....." -- *Guest*
"If America and Israel are
funding terrorists in Syria it could certainly spread to
Lebanon,
Jordan, Iran and Saudi Arabia. -- Make reform or they will see
heads
roll. Which is it going to be???? -- Saudis will go down
eventually but
they won't see it before hand. Sad indeed....." -- *DrS*
"Those Saudi bastards are worst
then Zionists! -- Zionists do not pretend to be friends of

"After the dollar "reserve"
currency scam comes to its inevitable and fast approaching end
and with
poor broken amerika facing defeat in all of its current wars
(anywhere

more
likely that Israel will give murka the boot now that the A Pack

feudal
thugs in Riyadh would have no problem in jettisoning the burnt
out
Golem amerika and allying itself ever more closely with the

little nuclear armed pit-bull in occupied apartheid Palestine.
After
all what the Saudis need the judaic entity has got i.e. no
qualms about
mass murder and the reputation of the most dangerous and

U.S.
Army [3] who served two tours of duty in Vietnam [4], are the

proponents of a nonviolent alternative to military intervention in
the
pursuit of U.S. foreign policy goals. Students of Gene Sharp, who
developed a theory of how to destabilize governments through
nonviolent

Imperialist International, training “a modern type of mercenary,”

travel “the world, often in the pay of the U.S. government or

Helvey’s new type of mercenary are practitioners of what the CIA
used
to call destabilization. To escape the taint of its CIA past,
destabilization has been rebranded as nonviolent resistance (NVR),
shrewdly drawing upon the reputation of Martin Luther King Jr.’s
nonviolent struggles for black civil rights in the 1960s. But
where
King sought to bring about change within the system, and in the
United

A quote...."There seems to be a shift taking place in the pro-war
talking points on Libya. Now they suggest that all of Tripoli, a
city
of 2 million people, is Moammar Gadhafi’s compound or “strong
hold”.
This is intended to silence criticism of NATO attacks on targets
inside
Tripoli that are clearly unrelated to military targets because
they
simply can’t deny them anymore. What they are effectively doing is
normalizing the Shock and Awe campaign that is developing in
Libya. --
On another note, the United States is opposed to a proposition
that
Libya hold internationally monitored elections in order to replace
Gadhafi and his regime. Free and open elections cannot be allowed
because they know in a real election their puppets with the
Transitional National Council will not win. -- The charade of the
“humanitarian intervention” is practically over."

More Tales

What’s
the
Difference
Between
Zionism
and
Racism?
Must Read - A
quote...."The truth is, the dispute over Israel is nothing less
than
“The Manifest Destiny” being reenacted. When the Europeans came to
America and began to strip the indigenous people of their land,
they
justified their unholy atrocities by declaring that it was God’s
will
that they settle and bring his word to this “uncivilized land”– it
was
their manifest destiny. So in true civilized, Christian fashion,
they
began to spread the Holy word of God through the hot muzzle of a
Gatlin
gun. It was a brutally unconscionable and gruesome event, but what
could these good Christians do? After all, it was God’s will that
they
slaughter those “Godless savages.” That is the exact same scenario
that
is currently taking place in the Middle East today. It began with
the
“creation” of the state of Israel in 1948, and the campaign
continues
as I speak – but this time, it’s called Zionism."

award-winning story of a negotiated arrangement in 1933 between
Zionist
organizations and the Nazis to transfer some 50,000 Jews, and $100
million of their assets to Jewish Palestine in exchange for
stopping
the worldwide Jewish-led boycott threatening to topple the Hitler
regime in its first year, exposes historical truth."

Cracking
Stuxnet,

21st-century
cyber
weapon
Video - A quote...."When
first discovered in 2010, the Stuxnet computer worm posed a
baffling
puzzle. Beyond its unusually high level of sophistication loomed a
more
troubling mystery: its purpose. Ralph Langner and team helped
crack the
code that revealed this digital warhead's final target -- and its
covert origins. In a fascinating look inside cyber-forensics, he
explains how."

Spring'

Special Note - A
quote...."Israel has been too quiet for too long, they should be
on one
of their homicidal visits to either Gaza or Lebanon, butchering
civilians while the USA says not to worry, it's only '
birthing
pains,' hence my suspicions that this 'Arab Spring' is a
Zionist/NeoCon led diversion that will kick out the aging
pro-Israel
Zionist stooges and replace them with a younger version who's on

Special Note - A
quote...."Financial crashes came suddenly. They often were
triggered by
a crop failure causing farmers to default, or “the autumnal drain”
drew
down bank liquidity when funds were needed to move the crops.
Crashes
often also revealed large financial fraud and “excesses.”
--- This was not really a “cycle.” It was a scallop-shaped a
ratchet pattern: an ascending curve, ending in a vertical plunge.
But
popular terminology called
it a cycle
because the pattern was similar again and again, every eleven
years or
so. When loans by banks and debt claims by other
creditors could
not be paid, they were wiped out in a convulsion of
bankruptcy.
--- Gradually, as the financial system became more
“elastic,”
each business
recovery started from a
larger debt overhead relative to output. The United
States
emerged from World War II relatively debt free. Downturns
occurred,
crashes wiped out debts and savings, but each recovery since 1945
has
taken place with a higher debt overhead. Bank loans and bonds have
replaced stocks, as more stocks have been retired in leveraged
buyouts
(LBOs) and buyback plans (to keep stock prices high and thus give
more
munificent rewards to managers via the stock options they give
themselves) than are being issued to raise new equity capital." -

IMF Warns
U.S. on Debt
A quote...."The private central banks issue a fiat currency based
on
debt, which means all money in circulation is the proceeds of a
loan at
interest from the private central bank. By design, this system
always
increases the debt well in excess of the actual amount of money
available. All that interest-debt owed is money that has never
actually
existed. Over time, the population enslaved to that private
central
bank is forced deeper and deeper into debt, simply because the
money to
pay the accumulated interest does not exist and never existed
under
that system."
"So now that the system has succeeded in plunging the US deep into
a
manufactured debt for trillions of dollars that never existed in
the
first place, the IMF, the biggest private central bank of all,
starts
to complain? The private central bankers CREATED this system. They
KNEW
what would happen and how it would ruin the nation (So did Andrew
Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, and John Kennedy). So let us not waste

- We didn't sign on for the rescue of banks and financial
institutions deemed "too big to fail".
- We didn't sign on to jobs being outsourced in order for the
homes on which we could legitimately afford a mortgage get
repossessed
in order for banks to pay back the illegal mortgage backed
security
frauds to other banks (including, thank you very much, the

as
the bad guys for the United States. Then, in the 20th century the
communists became the bad guys (albeit for a relatively brief, but
painful, period the Nazis were designated). Now in the 21st century
the
bad guys have become Muslims. When simply understood, Muslim
terrorists
engineered 9/11. End of what you need to know. -- But real history
is
not quickly and easily understood. It turns out the Spanish did not
blow up the Maine in Havana harbor leading to the Spanish-American
War,
that the War World I allies were not so innocent about the Lusitania
sinking, that Roosevelt had allowed the destruction in Pearl Harbor
to
occur knowing in advance the Japanese plans, that the Gulf of Tonkin
incident leading to escalation in Vietnam did not occur. We may be
quite willing to believe that other governments engage in
Machiavellian
state acts, but it seems harder to do so when such possibilities
come
close to home. -- The difficulty of even thinking about
culpabilities
of our own government eases the path for those wanting us to
completely
dismiss such possibilities, without our even acknowledging that
there
is evidence about 9/11 that needs to be confronted." - Topix || Reficultnias's

A
Definition
Special Legal Note - A
quote...."Perhaps it is time to look at some basic defintions for a
term that will soon be quite prevalent..."
Odious Debt:
def. ~ "In international
law, odious debt is a legal theory which holds that the national
debt
incurred by a regime for purposes
that
do
not
serve
the
best
interests
of
the
nation, should not be
enforceable. Such debts are thus considered by this doctrine to be
personal debts of the regime that incurred them and not debts of
the
state. In some respects,
the
concept
is analogous to the invalidity of contracts signed under
coercion."

contracts

A quote...."June 16 2011 "Information Clearing House" -- I used to
work
for Democratic candidates. I was a campus activist. I marched in
protests. -- But, in the 1980s, I quit politics. I was fed up. The
Left
was impotent and inept. They didn’t want to change things. They were
content with theater. Bad theater at that: dorks on stilts, boring
speakers, stupid slogans, the same old chants. “The people, united,
will never be defeated!” -- Except—we were defeated. We didn’t even
fight."
Greek state
starting to lose grip on functions of state
Quote of the Day...."And
I will repeat the point about hostility to the media: it's not a
problem for me and my colleagues to be hounded off demos as
"representatives of big capital", "Zionists", "scum and police
informers" etc. But to get this reaction from almost every
demographic
- from balaclava kids to pensioners - should be a warning sign to
the
policymaking elite. The "mainstream" - whether it's the media,
politicians or business people - is beginning to seem illegitimate
to
large numbers of people. -- As one old bloke put it to me, when I
said:
"Don't you want us to report what's happening to you?" - "No." -- He
was quite calm and rational as he waved his hand in my face: "It's
too
late for that.""

the
Greeks or the Portuguese or Irish. -- Greece is going to default.
Everyone finally admits this after denying it vehemently. The simple
fact is that the Greek economy is not growing fast enough to have
any
hope of even keeping pace with their debts and the interest on them.
Their debts are accumulating faster than their economy is growing.
In

British banks, the key provision of which will be the separation of
bank retail and investment business "in order to help avoid another
financial crisis" - an act which
is
in essence a reintroduction of Glass-Steagall. What is
stunning
about this development is that the banking cartel has allowed the UK
to
get so far as to effectively repeal Gramm-Leach-Bliley, the act that
ended Glass Steagall and allowed unprecedented deregulation to
convert
formerly safe banks into the mastodon, 50x levered, TBTF hedge funds
they are now. And if this is happening in the UK, how long before
Europe adopts the same overhaul in order to placate its
austerity-ired
population, and deflect populist anger where it belongs: the banking
oligarchy which continues to defy nature, and the simple laws of
bankruptcy, and demands that there is never even the smallest
impairment of senior claims. All this may very soon be changing." -
