For anyone in two minds about what is really going on in Syria, and whether President Assad, hailed a decade ago as “A Modern Day Attaturk”, has become the latest megalomaniacal despot, to whose people a US-led posse of nations, must deliver “freedom”, with weapons of mass, home, people, nation and livelihood destruction, here is a salutary tale from modern history. Have the more recent sabre rattlings against Syria* been based on US-UK government papers, only discovered in 2003 - and since air brushed (or erroneously omitted) from even BBC timelines, on that country?(i) In late 2003, the year of the Iraq invasion, Matthew Jones, a Reader in International History, at London’s Royal Holloway College, discovered “frighteningly frank” documents:1957 plans between then UK Prime Minister, Harold Macmillan, and then President, Dwight Eisenhower, endorsing: “a CIA-MI6 plan to stage fake border incidents as an excuse for an invasion (of Syria) by Syria’s pro-western neighbours.” (ii)

Ponzi dynamics are the underlying commonality at all degrees of trend for a fractal system based on swings of positive feedback in both directions: From the Top of the Great Pyramid (2008) At the largest scale, empires are also grounded in pyramid dynamics, which is why they too have a limited lifespan.

Due diligence was virtually non-existent for many years, while systemic risk grew unchecked. In the USA, the mortgage securitization process broke the chain of title for property, and the banking system attempted to cover this up through fraudulent reconstruction of paperwork after the fact. Naked shorting has been used to create artificial selling pressure. The benchmark LIBOR rate has been fiddled since its inception, creating enormous private profits at public expense. As crisis has developed as a result of these, and many other, abuses, the response has been austerity for the masses while the insiders, who should have know better, have been able to walk away from the consequences of their recklessness.

Dear Facebook user: Hey it’s Mark. It seems like just yesterday that Facebook had its historic I.P.O. and, thanks to you, my net worth soared to a staggering $20 billion. What an awesome day that was for both of us. Today was a different kind of day. Facebook shares are plunging because the geniuses on Wall Street expect us to, and I quote, “make money.” That’s why your Facebook friend Mark needs your help. Facebook only makes money if people click on its ads. Do you know what Facebook ads are? They’re those things on your Facebook page that you have never clicked on even once. But at Facebook we’re looking to change that. After doing extensive market research, we learned that there is one time when people actually do click on Facebook ads: when they’re drunk. This is the same business model that iTunes is based on. I’m sure a few of you have had the experience of using Facebook late at night, only to wake up and find that you’ve gotten seven auto-insurance quotes or enrolled as a criminal-justice major at the University of Phoenix. 8D http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/borowitzreport Mr. Romney’s day got off to a bad start when he told a reporter for the Sunday Times, “I don’t mind that the British keep calling me a banker, but why do they pronounce it with a ‘W’?” Read more www.newyorker.com/online/...owitzreport#ixzz21vbf0cxJ

#5. To: mcgowanjm (#4) Why does the USSA subsidize Israeli Single Payer Health Care? I've asked that question too. Now I wonder the real reason NBC, in this age of the internet, insisted on a delayed broadcast. Why not repeat it in the evening if they must? I wonder if Big Insurance paid to insure this celebration of a nation with health care for all, was never seen by Americans who have no clue what they are missing. “When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint.

"That means that the European debts are essentially unpayable. Without real growth they are bound to become even more so with every passing year, concentrating resources ever more in the hands of an ever smaller number of people. And of course, this will even worsen when oil production ceases to stagnate and begins to decline. At some point somebody will have to emulate Valdemar IV (king of Denmark (.....Those familiar with the history of Denmark will remember, for instance, that Christopher II of Denmark pawned nearly his entire kingdom to German magnates between 1320 and 1332. Yet Denmark still exists and is still a kingdom. You see, states have an enormous advantage over corporations : they generally command the loyalty of their subjects and can therefore tax and draft them. That is what Christopher’s successor, Valdemar IV, did.")........ , default on his debt or leave the Euro to inflate his way out of it. Bankers and traders won’t be amused but will quickly learn that money doesn’t command loyalty. Those who won’t be able to run will then have an interesting discussion with a court... or a lynch mob. The problem is that the European administration cannot take this decision. It is not a political body, it cannot change its policies, and those are liberal in nature. The first rule of a free market is that debts must be paid, no mater the costs and the consequences, and it is a rule it cannot break. Nations states will have to do it, therefore, either together in some grand conference, or more probably alone, after the crisis has put some radical into power. When this will happen, the European Union will simply vanish as the USSR did after the August Coup and the Belavezha Accords. Those who still nurture the dream of a political Europe, whether it be the Europe of Regions of my own political family or the Europe as civilization of the volkish far right will have to accept, as I did, that Europe has become an hollow shell and that time has run out. It is around nation states, not necessarily the ones we know by the way, that Europe will have to face the long descent, until they too dissolve."

"On an historical basis, those who cling to the exhausted verities of this fading epoch will be viewed in a comparable light to those obtuse denizens of the 16th Century who refused to let go (and ruthlessly strove to make miserable — or worse — those who challenged prevailing cultural illusions) of the fallacy of the Geocentric model of the universe. Like their Flat-Earther forbearers, our present day virtuosos of denial (e.g., climate change skeptics and capitalist rah-rahs) their names and their demented dogmas will, in years to come, become axiomatic of hubris, denial, and catastrophic conceit. When an individual clings to pride-petrified notions about himself, he is being held in the thrall of the viewpoint of a person who no longer exists; in the same way, when one parrots nationalistic platitudes, one dwells on a mental basis in a country that does not exist, and, in fact, never did." " Now, it appears that the West's Arab "foreign legion," Al Qaeda, is about to suffer an unprecedented defeat - not at the hands of Western anti-terrorism forces, but at the hands of Syrian troops in the city of Aleppo. In a desperate effort to prevent this, the West is employing a series of desperate strategies ranging from portraying the trapped foreign-fighters committing atrocities inside Aleppo as "pending a certain massacre," to using the very presence of these foreign-fighters as evidence "Al Qaeada" is operating in Syria and must be "stopped" by Western intervention. It is essential to understand that, as empires have always done, the monolithic corporate-financier interests of the West seek regional hegemony as a step toward global domination, and will say and do anything in order to achieve it. As resistance increases, the West's lies become more difficult to sell, the consistency of their propaganda overtly crumbling. The West, in nearly a single breath, has now claimed FSA fighters are both "Al Qaeda" that need to be eliminated, while also impeding a "massacre" by Syrian forces if something isn't done to save them.

The trick with that base is Adana is right next to the Incirlik NATO air force base. It is Incirlik AFB and the account in Reuters is not certain whether the Adana logistical base for the death squads in Syria is actually on the NATO base.

Welcome to the Kurdish Spring ~ link ~ This could prove to be a massive 'wild card' event, on a par with the Kaiser sending Lenin to Russia in a sealed train. It ended up bringing not only the Emperor of Russia down but the Kaiser and many others as well. Stirling Turkish foreign policy, codified by Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, used to be known in shorthand as "zero problems with our neighbors". When Turkey started calling for regime change in Syria, it turned into "a major problem with one of our neighbors" (even tough Davutoglu himself admitted on the record the policy change failed). Now, in yet another twist, it's becoming "all sorts of problems with two of our neighbors". Enter - inevitably - Ankara's ultimate taboo; the Kurdish question.

Post Mon Jul 30, 2012 9:26 am by mcgowanjm ".... money will be found to "rescue" Spain and Italy, even if it comes from the Fed,..... and September will come and go just like all the other crunch times which were trumpeted up to this point." Nope. The only thing holding the USSA's colonies is certain payment. As in: $4 Geo Washingtons will get you a gal of petrol anywhere in the world. Once this no longer holds, neither will the Empire's colonies. As I keep asking myself what Turkey gets for destabilizing Syria and going against Russia/China. Though not yet announced by the Saudi authorities, the death of Prince Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud has been confirmed to Voltaire Network unofficially. Prince Bandar had just been appointed head of Saudi intelligence on July 22: a promotion which was interpreted as a reward for having organized the attack in Damascus on July 18. The Saudi services, with logistical support from the CIA, had managed to blow up the headquarters of the Syrian National Security during a Crisis Cell meeting: Generals Assef Chaoukat, Daoud Rajha and Hassan Tourkmani were killed instantly. Generals Amin Charabeh and Hicham Ikhtiar died soon after from their wounds. This operation, called "Damascus Volcano" was the signal for the attack on the capital by a swarm of mercenaries, mainly coming from Jordan. Prince Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud was hand in glove with the bush family. IF the above is true, Turki al Faisal is all the USSA has left. Worse for the Saudi's than the drone attack on Syria's Defense Minister. ''Turkish foreign policy, codified by Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, used to be known in shorthand as "zero problems with our neighbors". When Turkey started calling for regime change in Syria, it turned into "a major problem with one of our neighbors" (even tough Davutoglu himself admitted on the record the policy change failed).
The Truth replaced by Silence is evil....;} A lot of Silence this AM....;} " >My comment would be that if AND I MEAN IF there was a valid deal offered to Iran by the US, it would be to have Syria removed, then it would follow the same path and destroy Iran. You still don't understand why they want a regime change in Iran. They want to remove the ideology, eventually break the country into two parts: Balunchistan and Iran proper, and parts of in near the Caspian sea to go to form a new country for the Azeri population. Now there's no need to say IF, the deal was at P5+1: - Syria renounces resistance to israel - Syrian army is reduced in size to half then a quarter of its size, mainly used to police the country - Public betrayal of Hezbollah required to prove the deal is sealed Syria REFUSED, furthermore, many were betting that Russia would give up at that point, but were wrong. The failure to kill Assad and the failure to take Damascus and Aleppo will be their undoing, they're going to make a big mistake soon and involve Turkey overtly. The leaders don't want to engulf the world in a nuclear war for nothing, they're careful and have a long term plan. 3 Chinese vessels entered the Mediterranean, joining 8 Russian vessels off the coast of Syria. Can you finally put the pieces together and see your "5 Kings" split in the middle between the FUKUS axis and China/Russia? China cannot lose Iran, it's not possible for them to survive long-term without this secure point of oil and leverage over the gulf. Do you not agree with this? Of course because of your 5 kings bullshit, you think China will just lower its head to be sliced clean off by America. Do you understand what double vetoes, 3 times in a row, means? Do you understand what would happen to Russia's reputation if they allow a violation of their veto? Do you understand what is at stake here? They've been trying to take down Syria in the most ferocious way, they've killed thousands of soldiers, wounded countless more, they've destroyed hundreds of armored vehicles, they've killed scientists, sanctioned literally EVERYTHING (I cannot even get a flight back home without going through Lebanon), destroyed infrastructure everywhere they've laid their hand on. They're calling this the dirtiest war in written history. The country is still here and it's still fighting. Russia, China, Iran, Syria and the resistance. If any one of them falls, all of them fall. There was great pressure on Iran to first accept the deal by America and betray Russia (who would then be engulfed by Islamists via destroyed Syria, Turkey). Then there was great pressure on Syria to make a deal, we all assumed that Russia would not veto the third time and would have to fight alone. Mistaken, even moving the "missile shield" out of Turkey wasn't a good enough deal for them. They knew that taking down Syria was multipurpose. YOUR BIGGEST MISTAKE is assuming they just want to tie things up with Iran and then that's it. WRONG, their target is Russia (biggest landmass, most of the world's untapped resources) and China (industrial power house, huge untapped resources). They want to swallow the world. Syria is the knot holding the rope together for the opposition to the US, if it's undone, it's over, there's no point resisting them anymore. I hope people understand the gravity of the situation."

"Turkey hosts invading Saudi and Qatari mercenary army." This confirms earlier reports featured in the New York Times and the Washington Post, that not only are the Gulf States of Saudi Arabia and Qatar funding and arming militants via Turkey, but that the US is coordinating the logistical aspects of the operation as well. "
Saudis and Qataris Attempt "Arab League-UN" Rescue of Faltering Mercenaries Perhaps as a sign the Gulf States of Saudi Arabia and Qatar are stretched to the limits of their ability to covertly undermine Syria, they have announced plans to seek "UN General Assembly action" for a "political transition and establishment of a democratic government in Syria." For the despotic, unelected, grandiose nepotism of Saudi Arabia and Qatar to call for a "democratic government in Syria" is truly a move made as much out of desperation as it is one of farcical hypocrisy.
“Any attack on Syrian territory will meet with a harsh response, and the Iranian-Syrian mutual defence agreement will be activated,” the statement reportedly said. Turkey’s president and foreign minister have both issued statements recently suggesting an attack could be forthcoming.

E-mail Print PDF Thursday, 14 Ramadan 1433 Thursday, 02 August 2012 10:35 The intelligence organ of Kabul regime claimed that they have thwarted a Mujahideen assault in Kabul today and in the process have killed several assailants. We reject such reports and state that such a subject has no bases. Rather, we believe this is yet another maneuver of the intelligence apparatus which is trying to portray itself as active, aware and vigilant. Since the intelligence agency is under question from the parliament and other departments in Kabul hence its wants to have something to draw upon in the hearings. The Islamic Emirate had no plans for an operation in Kabul today and neither are those people which they reportedly eliminated Mujahideen. We believe this whole process was staged to keep the media busy for today. This whole charade is an enemy propaganda ploy which we strongly reject and deem it as nothing more than a stunt and allegory. We must state that if we ever wanted to carry out an operation, it would be done with the help of Allah and with all precautionary measures and will be executed successfully in its allocated time, Allah willing, without it being detected or foiled by the enemy.

What is certain is that Bandar as head of Saudi intelligence was part of King Abdullah's hardcore response to the Arab Spring. In Syria, the House of Saud strategy boils down to regime change - and a fragile, fragmented, Sunni government in Damascus not aligned with Tehran. Internally, the strategy is to viciously smash any peaceful Shi'ite-majority protest in the eastern provinces. Essentially, there's no Arab Spring in Saudi Arabia because the House of Saud either bribes or intimidates its subjects. The overall strategy of choice is "blame it on Iran"; as this logic goes, Saudi Shi'ites are Iranian puppets as much as Bahraini Shi'ites. The Obama administration blindly subscribes to this fallacy - totally missing the point; the House of Saud hates any semblance of Western parliamentary democracy as much as it hates Shi'ites - Iranian and otherwise. So what happened in Riyadh? A graphic Tehran message to the House of Saud? A rogue suicide bomber? An internal Saudi war? The House of Saud is not talking. And Bandar is not moving. Pepe Escobar When Pepe Escobar has questions, people around the world take note. Every day from now on that bandar does not show, is weakness for the Saudi Regime amd strength for syria/IRan.
I hope the fight lasts a very long time. Down to the last man.

We all know the part that the cartels played in bringing Hitler to power, and the rule the giant German trusts have played in Nazi conquests. Monopolists who fear competition and who distrust democracy because it stands for equal opportunity would like to secure their position against small and energetic enterprise. In an effort to eliminate the possibility of any rival growing up, some monopolists would sacrifice democracy itself...

American fascists of this stamp were clandestinely aligned with their German counterparts before the war, and are even now preparing to resume where they left off, after "the present unpleasantness" ceases.

EASY Peasy..... 8-) Knight Capital Group, Inc. (KCG) -NYSE 3.43 Down 3.51(50.58%) 10:59AM EDT - Nasdaq Real Time Price From down 25% yesterday.
Two anagrams Black Knight Group wishes they'd never heard of: HFT and Algo's.....8D Us Dirty Fuckin' Hippies told you this blatant market manipulation would end badly. SkyNet goes self aware and the USSA's done just as fast.
Spoken like a true zioFundy. Your problem is that Power trumps every religion. The madness will not stop until it comes for you.
DEATH SPIRAL and the CEO is clueless. per ZH: www.zerohedge.com/news/kn...rket-hap-one-day#comments "Translation: we are shopping ourselves right now and unless someone pick us up by end of trading when the margin calls come in, tomorrow's open may be a little problematic. Of course, JPM will mysteriously step up in the last minute and provide a DIP-like loan in the process onboarding all the "segregated" accounts. * KNIGHT BONDS FALL 13.125 CENTS TO 70 CENTS ON DOLLAR Quite soon we may find out what it means to trade in a market which has just lost one of its key market makers, responsible for up to 15% of overall liquidity.
No, nitwit, I don't. Blather on.
A female at LF....welcome.... I can be very sensitive. Sincerely Jim....;}

Mr. Romney’s day got off to a bad start when he told a reporter for the Sunday Times, “I don’t mind that the British keep calling me a banker, but why do they pronounce it with a ‘W’?”

I own the site. It is a place to state your opinions and debate them with others. There are leftists and Conservatives such as myself.
