French President Nicolas Sarkozy has spoken the magic words: “Tax the banks,” and this is the big news from the opening day of this year’s UN General Assembly plenary session in New York. For reasons which have much to do with internal French political struggles, Sarkozy has thus placed the central question of the age on the international agenda: Who will pay the costs of the world economic depression? Will it be the bankers, speculators, derivatives mongers, asset strippers, and hedge fund hyenas who have created the current depression through the bubble economy of the last decades? Or, as the Koch-headed dupes of the Tea Party demand, will the cost of the depression be taken out of the hide of average working people around the globe under the banner of “free-market” swindles once again? http://tarpley.net/2010/09/22/at-un-french-president-sarkozy-demands-financial-transaction-tax-on-banks-tobin-genie-now-out-of-the-bottle-worldwide-time-to-mobilize-against-finance-capital-on-this-issue/

Before a sparse audience, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad used 10 minutes on the world stage Tuesday to declare capitalism near death while urging world leaders to "spare no effort" in starting to plan for a new world order. The Iranian president reserved his most pointed language to condemn "unjust government structures" and "transnational corporations," which he blamed for "suffering" around the world. But the brief address was most notable for its lack of fiery rhetoric aimed at the United States and its allies over Tehran’s nuclear program. http://bellaciao.org/en/spip.php?article20231

This week Max Keiser and co-host, Stacy Herbert, look at the scandals of Greenspan's 'gold warning;' currency wars breaking out; the Veterans Administration's verbal dealers with insurance brokers raking it in on dead soldiers and Carla Bruni's hopes for raking it in after her husband's (hopefully) one term. In the second half of the show, Max goes to New York to talk to Yves Smith of NakedCapitalism.com about her book, Econned, and about stability and instability in financial markets, structural imbalances,'bad equilibrium,' trillions in derivatives and Che Guevara with machine gun interfering with Potemkin companies.

David Ray Griffin - Mr. President the whole world knows 9/11 was a Lie, your credibility is going to be destroyed if you keep saying that America was attacked by muslims on 9/11.

Nick Kollerstrom, President Bush, Fox News, Chief of Police, Architects for 911truth, Pilots for 911truth, Put them all together (or not -:) and 911 does not add up! One of the internet's qualities ...

Are we all being driven to Islam? By megalomaniac war criminals. Is Islam turning out to be the last refuge.

Our paymasters and warmasters keep themselves and their aims well hidden.

from Morris

Crunch time is approaching. Israel is becoming a liability to world Jewry. World Jewry has brought forward many movements and isms, I argue that they will abandon Israel to preserve their status. And I believe many Israelis will too.

Welcome to Sodom

Is there an end to Israeli barbarism?

I must admit, it isn't the first time that I hear about Israeli soldiers sodomising young Palestinians. As a young Israeli soldier (1982) I was shocked to hear other soldiers bragging about such activities that were performed during prisoner interrogations. In 1982 I refused to believe my ears. Now I seem to believe it all.
