Two days ago, Eva Joly, the Norwegian-French magistrate hired to advise the Icelandic government on the current [colossal] investigation into the bank collapse, threatened to pull out of the investigation unless two very clear conditions were met. One, that the State Prosecutor step down, as he is unfit on familial grounds [his son is an executive in one of the holding companies affiliated with the banks]. Two, that the Office of the Special Investigator into the bank collapse be substantially strengthened and that the number of prosecutors be increased from one to three. Yesterday the Icelandic nation held its breath while it waited for the government’s response to those stipulations. Yesterday evening it was announced that there was agreement in parliament that the government would do everything in its power to ensure that Mme Joly gets the facilities she needs to continue her work. As the nation let out a collective sigh of relief, Eva Joly kindly agreed to sit down with us for a chat.

As we predicted at the time, the return of Mandelson has reopened the question of joining the Euro. Recent events tend to confirm that Mandelson has influential backing within the British elite: his coming out on the euro seems to indicate, therefore, a deep division within them. We could posit that Mandelson represents a “realist” element, who recognise the game is up for the pound. It will be interesting to look for the reaction to this statement.

Lord Mandelson has reopened the divisive issue of joining the single currency.
The Business Secretary described it as an “important objective” for Britain during a trip to Berlin, hailing the euro as “a great success”.

China’s fraught relations with the International Monetary Fund are driven by two conflicting agendas – the country’s effort to gain unimpeded access to resources in the developing world on bilateral terms, and its interest in using the IMF’s facilities as a international organization to issue Special Drawing Rights (SDR) assets to help Beijing diversify away from the US dollar.

The power of irrational fear in the US is extraordinary. It ranks up there with the Israel Lobby, the military/security complex, and the financial gangsters. Indeed, fear might be the most powerful force in America.

Antes-Que-Seja-Tarde?trackId=891891&m=0
Com força e com vontade
A felicidade há de se espalhar
Com toda intensidade
[With force and will
happiness must be spread
with great intensity]
Há de molhar o seco
De enxugar os olhos
De iluminar os becos
Antes que seja tarde
Há de assaltar os bares
E retomar as ruas
E visitar os lares
Antes que seja tarde
[We must rain on drought,
we must dry our eyes
illuminate the dead -ends
before it is too late.
we must invade the bars
and retake the streets
and visit the people
before its too late]
Há de rasgar as trevas
E abençoar o dia
E de guardar as pedras
Antes que seja tarde
[We must tear up the darkness
and bless the light
and treasure the stones
before it’s too late]
Há de deixar sementes
No mais bendito fruto
Na terra e no ventre
Antes que seja tarde
[We must leave seeds
of the most blessed fruit
in the earth and the womb
before it’s too late]
Há de fazer alarde
E libertar os sonhos
Da nossa mocidade
Antes que seja tarde
[We must sing the praises
and liberate the dreams
of our youth
before it’s too late]
Há de mudar os homens
Antes que a chama apague
Antes que a fé se acabe
Antes que seja tarde.
[We must change ourselves
before the flame goes out
before our faith is exhausted
before it’s too late]
