Naked shorts as liquidity machine

The article of July 22nd on “Smoking Guns of USTreasury Monetization” hit more desks, raised more dust, and brought more attention than expected to the heightened malfeasance in progress using USGovt debt securities. The actions continue without any hint of regulatory notice or legal prosecution. The problem is more diverse than just JPMorgan sale of bonds far beyond their existing supply. Sure, the venerable colossus sold more than $2 trillion in USTreasurys than were issued in the 1990 decade. Records no longer exist. The problem goes far beyond the giant bank, which gobbled numerous other banks in the course of its reign, to become an oligopoly cog within the USGovt today. See Chase Manhattan, Chemical Bank, Manufacturers Hanover, and Bank One. Any competent student of financial economics can see that such merger is part & parcel of the Fascist Business Model, with climax merged union with the state, and certain side effect benefits of subterranean license in numerous markets like silver. JPMorgan cannot be fixed by the process any more realistically than an angry man with a vengeful heart can carve out his own cardiac pump in order to enjoy a better day. Thus no solution exists.

First 100 days: David Cameron and Nick Clegg lose buddy movie script

Can it really only be only three months since David Cameron and Nick Clegg gave that wisecracking joint press conference in the Downing Street garden, catapulting their take on bromance into the mainstream electoral landscape? “Prime minister,” inquired a reporter that day. “Do you now regret that when once asked what your favourite joke was, you replied ‘Nick Clegg’?”

The ecstasy of empire: how close is America’s demise?

Without a revolution, Americans are history
Paul Craig Roberts
16th August, 2010
The United States is running out of time to get its budget and trade deficits under control. Despite the urgency of the situation, 2010 has been wasted in hype about a non-existent recovery. As recently as August 2 Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner penned a New York Times Column, “Welcome to the Recovery.”

Folly, left and right- It’s an honor to be attacked by the left and the right
Posted by seumasach on August 16, 2010
Apart from the fact that we don’t have anyone of the stature of Justin Raimondo in this country for the left and the right to slander, it is remarkable how familiar this scenario is. The point Raimondo makes, namely, that the left/right dichotomy is a completely artificial one benefiting only the War Party, virtually the entire political class in the UK, is an absolutely fundamental one.
Justin Raimondo
13th August, 2010
Attacked by left, smeared by the right – I must be doing something right. That, at least, is what I’m led to believe by the two most recent polemics directed at your humble servant. The first, from the pages of the Daily Caller – the right-wing answer to theHuffington Post – is really a study in the damage that public school has done to our youth: the incoherence is palpable. Entitled “Sun Tzu versus Justin Raimondo,” the piece, by one Kerry Patton, takes on my most recent appearance on Judge Andrew Napolitano’s “Freedom Watch” program, albeit through a tangled thicket of tortured prose, to wit:
“While many conservatives and libertarians argue similar points of interest, they oftentimes are arguing the same message.”

Obama’s Mona Lisa smile

The range of interpretations given by the small group of journalists invited to United States President Barack Obama’s briefing on Iran last week is truly amazing. What comes to mind is Mona Lisa, the famous song sung in a soft baritone voice six decades ago, before Obama was born, by another African-American from Chicago, Nat King Cole:
Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa,
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there.

Something stinks about Wikileaks release of “secret” documents
Posted by seumasach on August 14, 2010
F.William Engdahl
12th August, 2010
Coinciding with Voltaire Network’s interpretation of the Wikileaks uproar, F. William Engdhal also detects the signs of a gross diversion maneuver. Conspicuously, no mention is made of the juicy Afghan drug business while retired Pakistani General Hamid Gul is conveniently framed for the breakdown of U.S. policies in Afghanistan. After Osama bin Laden, this is the second time that the mightiest world power would be ridiculing itself if indeed it had been outwitted at the hands of a sigle man. Remarkably, one of the few who still believes in the official tale of OBL happens to be leakmaster Julian Assange himself.

Italian high court finds mobile and chordless phones a danger
Posted by seumasach on August 10, 2010
From Andrew Goldsworthy
Further to my email on August 6th, can I remind you that the French Authorities have already removed WiFi from their public libraries because of symptoms of electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) among the staff. Also, there has been a recent judgement by a High Court in Italy that an employer who forced his staff to use mobile and cordless phones (which have a similar technology to WiFi), has been held legally responsible for a brain tumour and instructed to pay compensation to the person concerned, plus legal costs. I am pasting in a translation of the news item below.
