Tommy Tucci
Philadelphia, PA,,,,,,,,,,,,Updated "Dollar Plunges As Everyone Now Figures Return of Quantitative Easing Is A Done Deal" Posted by Business Insider. Sovereign States do not operate free market capitalism with corrupt systemic private bank barons charging interest on worthless fiat paper schemes, fraudulent mortgage conveyance, or QE-1 QE-2 monetizing debt by private gangbanksters. QE2 second installment Reverse Pyramid sham or conduit for instantaneous confiscation of Value, Wealth, Labor, Property, and Assets part two deception. WORLD FINANCIAL SYSTEM NOT SUSTAINABLE. "The U.S. financial system and the world has evolved on the Bank of England model is not sustainable. It creates nearly all money as debt. Such money only exists as long as someone is willing and able to pay interest on it. It disappears, wholly or partially, in recurring financial crises. Such a system requires that new debt must be created faster than principal and interest payments fall due on old debt ." Posted by John H. Hobson
Peace Held Hostage to Rotating US, Israeli Elections
By Nicola Nasser*
The statement by former U.S. President George W. Bush in his 497 – page memoir of “Decision Points” that a secret peace deal was worked out between the then-prime minister of Israel, Ehud Olmert, and Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, which “we devised a process to turn .. into a public agreement” had not Olmert been ousted by a scandal to be replaced in the following elections by Binyamin Netanyahu, who reneged on his predecessor’s commitments, is a piece of history which highlights the fact that peace making in the Arab – Israeli conflict and the peace process have been hostages to the rotating U.S. and Israeli elections since the Madrid peace conference of 1991.
Of course Bush had a different point of view. In his Rose Garden speech on Israel – Palestine two-state solution on June 24, 2002, he said that “for too long .. the citizens of the Middle East” and “the hopes of many” have been held “hostage” to “the hatred of a few (and) the forces of extremism and terror,” a misjudgement that led his administration to strike a deal with the former Israeli premier, now comatose, Ariel Sharon to engineer a “regime change” in the self-ruled Palestinian Authority that resulted – according to Sharon’s terminology – in the “removal” of Yasser Arafat, the Palestinian leader who made peace possible in the first place for the first time in the past one hundred years and for that deserved to be a Nobel Peace Laureate, to be replaced by the incumbent Palestinian leadership of Abbas who, despite being almost identical of both men’s image of a peace maker, is again victimized by the same rotating U.S. and Israeli elections, much more than by what Bush termed as “forces of extremism and terror.”
Silver (2008) Took the Stairs to $21, Silver (2010) Takes the Elevator to $29
By Robert Singer
Headline today November 9, 2010: Gold and Silver Soar amid New Debt Woes and Gold Standard Talk
The last time the precious metals were in the news was March of 2008.
The Future of Silver, According to Adam Smith (1723-1790) was my attempt at humor after I began my lucrative Internet writing career.
David Morgan (www.silver-investor.com, one of the most respected newsletters in the industry) publishes an in-depth and comprehensive look at the micro and macro economics of the precious metal markets, read The Future of Silver and “thought my humor was terrific--.”
What follows is pure Unadulterated Unverified Mogamboism (UUM) and reflects my views on the future of silver and the planet. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead is purely coincidental. Since Adam Smith or the Silver Smarty Pants (SSP) never agreed to a Mind-ray scan, neither of them could endorse these views, which may or may not prove to be correct. This was my attempt at humor released December 2008.
[Breaking News: November 9, 2010: 'JPMorgan traders bragged about manipulating the silver market' (in 2008), informant says is discussed in this article.
Robert Singer, proclaimed a Junior Mogambo Ranger (JMR) in 2008 interviews Adam Smith, telepathically.
I got out my new Matrix Mind-ray Scanner, delivered before The Sharper Image and our way of life filed for bankruptcy and Googled “who is the founding father of economics”.
Results: Richard Cantillon, Alexander Hamilton and Adam Smith.
I never heard of Cantillion and Hamilton is the father of Crony Capitalism.
I selected Adam Smith and set the device on “Interview”:
Adam: I hear the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is finally taking the Silver Smarty Pants (SSP) seriously.
The Money Party Deficit Reduction Scam and Social Security
Michael Collins
President Obama announced the new National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform on February 18 to address astronomical federal budget deficits. There has been considerable speculation that this commission will target current and future benefits for Social Security recipients to achieve its goals.
Why would this be the case? We need look no further than the treatment of major retirement funds over the past 20 years to get the answer. When the mob needed cash, it looted the Teamsters retirement fund. When large corporations or government entities get in trouble, they effectively borrow from their employee retirement funds by delaying required payments or otherwise gaming the programs. This provides a source of ready cash, a quick vehicle to cover management errors, or jack up their bonuses.
Think of the Social Security Trust Fund (trust fund) as the most lucrative retirement fund in the country, the ultimate pot of gold, and you'll immediately understand why it is that for decades, big business has plundered the trust fund. How does this happen?
The Parcel Bomb Plot—Al-Qaeda’s Gift to Israel
Maidhc Ó Cathail
While Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) may have claimed responsibility for the parcel bomb plot, it’s worth considering how this latest Yemen-linked terror scare has been a gift to their avowed enemies.
A mere two weeks before the discovery of mail bombs addressed to “two places of Jewish worship in Chicago,” Rupert Murdoch sounded prescient as he received an award from the Anti-Defamation League for his support of Israel. “The terrorists continue to target Jews across the world,” declared the media mogul in his acceptance speech. “But they have not succeeded in bringing down the Israeli government—and they have not weakened Israeli resolve.” Equating criticism of Israel with anti-Semitism, the Fox News owner smeared the growing worldwide condemnation of Israel’s rogue behaviour as an “ongoing war against the Jews.”

Jack DeCoster's Salmonella Touch: Another massive egg recall
By Rady Ananda
Food Freedom
Another massive egg recall, another tie to scofflaw Jack DeCoster.
Nearly 300,000 eggs have been recalled, affecting eight states, after Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. got word on Friday from the FDA that eggs from one of its suppliers, Ohio Fresh Eggs, tested positive for Salmonella Enteritidis (SE). Cal-Maine processed and packaged 24,000 dozen eggs in its Green Forest, Arkansas facility under the Sunny Meadow, Springfield Grocer, Sun Valley and James Farm labels.
Cartons bearing plant number P1457 with Julian dates of 282, 284 and 285 are being recalled. The Julian date follows the plant number, for example: P1457-282.
Israeli Banks Profiteering from Occupation
by Stephen Lendman
Wall Street does it. Other Western banks do it. They all exploit markets, often ripping off customers illegally. Why not Israeli banks also in their own back yard, easily in expanding settlements.
The Coalition of Women for Peace (CWP) includes 10 feminist organizations and non-affiliated activist women in Israel. Founded in 2000, it advocates "radical social and political change," and is "a leading voice against the occupation, committed to feminist principles of organizing and Jewish-Palestinian partnership in a relentless struggle for a just peace."
The child soldier and Gitmo's kangaroo court
Mary Shaw
In October, a U.S. military tribunal at Guantanamo Bay sentenced Omar Khadr to 40 years in prison. A plea deal reduced his sentence to eight years. Under the deal, Khadr pled guilty to five charges, including murder and conspiracy to engage in terrorism.
What sets this apart from other terrorism cases is that Khadr was only 15 years old when he was arrested on an Afghan battlefield. He is also a Canadian citizen.
Because of his young age at the time of his arrest, Khadr has been recognized as a child soldier by the United Nations. As such, international standards prescribe that he be protected and rehabilitated, not prosecuted and abused.
Bring me the head of Silvino Herrera
By Daniel Patrick Welch
"Us versus them" and other "modern" myths of war and civilization
Against the background of the leaking of the USA?s secret Iraq war crimes files by the whistleblower website WikiLeaks, Daniel Patrick Welch peers beneath the West's self-proclaimed cultural and moral superiority in the face of atrocities against innocent people all over the world.
"When we peel away all the layers of burning flesh, all the carefully constructed fiction of human progress and benefits of science and technology, we must face a reality perhaps even more grim. There simply is no 'us versus them'. The side claiming to represent progress has done more and done worse, using as low-tech and brutal methods as any on either side of the technological and cultural divide."
