Conspiracy to Privatize: Too Big to Fail European Banks get huge cheap loans as Greece is hung out to dry

While European and IMF officials continue to string Greece along, regarding bailout loans, Europe’s too big to fail banks get billions in easy money!

The European Central Bank (ECB) has just issued the equivalent of U.S. $712.4 billion in cheap loans!  ECB officials said it is to help improve liquidity in the markets.  But the same would happen if Greece was given bailout loans!

This is the second time the ECB has issued cheap loans to too big to fail banks!  In December 2011, the ECB issued U.S. $657.9 billion at 1% interest.  Again, this while the ECB and the U.S. based IMF strung Greece along.

Many Greeks now believe what’s happening to their country is a conspiracy to force total privatization upon them.

World War 3: Japan threatens to cancel U.S. F-35 deal!

The controversial U.S. F-35 Joint Strike Fighter is once again causing problems.  This time Japan’s Defense Minister, Naoki Tanaka, said no deal if there were anymore cost overruns, or delays in the F-35 project.

Japan had tentatively agreed to purchase four of the multi-million dollar aircraft.  Currently each F-35 cost $123 million!

But, recently the Obama administration suggested that, in order to cut the Defense budget, development and production of the F-35 should be delayed.  The F-35 has already see numerous delays over the past decade, and seen costs skyrocket.

Japan has yet to sign a contract to buy the F-35, but officials said if the price of the F-35 goes up, or it’s delivery date is delayed, they will not sign any deal to buy it.

World War 3: USAF cancels deal with Brazil, over new trainer/COIN aircraft. Will award contract to company that didn’t even take part in the competition!

The U.S. Air Force has canceled a contract with the winner of a competition for the USAF’s new trainer aircraft.

Brazil’s Embraer Defense and Security, along with U.S. company Sierra Nevada, won the contract for the counter insurgency (COIN) aircraft deal in December 2011, for the A-29 Super Tucano.

There are rumors that a company that did not take part in the bidding could get the contract.  Hawker Beechcraft has filed a lawsuit over the whole issue.

The decision to cancel the contract with Brazil could be more about the growing power of the South American country, and its membership in CELAC.

Don’t think awarding the contract to Hawker Beechcraft would create more U.S. jobs. Officials with Sierra Nevada said the contract would have allowed them to hire 1,200 people in Florida, compared to 1,400 with Hawker Beechcraft.

World War 3: People of Yemen demand the U.S. get out! Proof of U.S. hypocrisy!

February 29, 2012, several thousand Yemenis have taken to the streets in the southern city of Taizz, demanding the U.S. ambassador leave.

Since 2011 Yemenis have been protesting against their authoritarian government.  Have you heard anything from the U.S. government about forcing regime change, as they did in Libya, and as they are in Syria?  Of course not, that’s because the criminal Yemen government is pro-U.S.

Recently the president of 20 years stepped down, to be replaced by the only candidate in an almost instantly held election!  The people of Yemen say the United States and Saudi Arabia were behind the farce of an election.

However, the former president, and his sons, still hold onto key government positions.

Report says Evil Christian Canada created hundreds of thousands of “lost souls”! Sex Crimes & Torture in the name of Christianity!

“In order to educate the children properly, we must separate them from their families. Some people may say that this is hard, but if we want to civilize them we must do that.”-Hector Langevin, Public Works Minister of Canada, 1883

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Canada has determined that the government, and Christians, of Canada are evil.  This is based on at least 150,000 cases of native American children who were forcibly separated from their parents!

The TRC issued two reports, one called They Came for the Children: Canada, Aboriginal Peoples, and Residential Schools.  The other is called Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Interim Report.

“The truth about the Residential School system will cause many Canadians to see their country differently.”-Murray Sinclair, TRC

From the late 19th Century up until the 1970s, the Canadian government forced native American children to live in boarding schools, many never to see their parents again.  This was part of a plan to make native Americans (indigenous people of North and South American continents) more like “Canadians”!

The program was run mainly by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Church of Canada, the United Church of Canada, but included the Presbyterian, Congregationalist and Methodist churches!!!

Instead of making natives civilized Christian Canadians, the program actually made the children victims of torture and sex crimes!!!

To top that, the investigation revealed that very little “education” took place!  Native Americans in Canada are suffering from intense poverty because of Canada’s so called “Christian” policies towards them!

Return of the Cold War: Russia’s Putin says it must be so, in order to stop the insane paranoid United States!

“It seems that NATO members, especially the United States, have developed a peculiar interpretation of security that is different from ours. The Americans have become obsessed with the idea of becoming absolutely invulnerable…..absolute invulnerability for one country would in theory require absolute vulnerability for all others. This is something that cannot be accepted.”-Vladimir Putin

On February 27, 2012, Vladimir Putin published a 6,060 page statement.  In it he basically said that Russia will return to a Cold War with the United States!

Even analysts in Russia say Putin’s latest statement is worrying.  It has a lot of the usual anti-U.S. language, but it’s the first time Putin has actually indicated that a return to the Cold War is necessary.

“This is deeply concerning, since it creates the impression that chances for improvement in U.S.-Russian relations will diminish….in his view America is to blame for everything that’s going wrong in the world today, even terrorism, and Russia must prepare itself to act as a counterbalance to the U.S.”-Dmitry Suslov, Council on Foreign and Defense Policies

Putin does blame the U.S. for terrorism, even implies that the U.S. is terrorism: “Russia will always call things as it sees them…”

Putin says the difference between Russia and the U.S. is that Russia wants to be part of the New World Order, but the United States wants to control the New World Order!

He also warned of war with Iran: “…Russia is worried about the growing threat of a military strike against Iran. If this happens, the consequences will be disastrous. It is impossible to imagine the true scope of this turn of events.”

Putin’s 6,060 page statement was published in RIANovosti (in English), and on his website.

World War 3: Day 8 Afghan riots, U.S. helicopter shot down, NATO troops poisoned, U.S. forces Incompetent

“Soldiers are now eating pre-prepared rations, and no one was affected. There is a full investigation that is narrowing down who was responsible.”-Major David Eastburn, NATO/ISAF

In eastern Afghanistan someone tried to poison the food at NATO/ISAF Forward Operating Base Torkham.  A Pentagon spokesman said they are still trying to determine if it was intentional or accidental.  However, “Taliban” sources are claiming responsibility.

Also, breaking news that a U.S./NATO helicopter has been shot down, ten people killed.  It was shot down in Nuristan (Nooristan) Province.

According to filmmaker John McHugh, U.S. forces pulled out of Nuristan, because the “Taliban” were kicking their ass (he claims 180 U.S. troops were killed at the end of 2011, just in the provinces of Nuristan and Kundar).

Now, despite President Obama’s claim to take troops out of Afghanistan by 2014, U.S. forces are trying to retake Nuristan.  McHugh has seen U.S./NATO/ISAF helicopters get shot down there, most are not being reported in the U.S .media.

McHugh also says U.S. military operations in Afghanistan are incompetent: “Over the course of my stay on [Operation] Mace, I witnessed the truly awesome firepower that the U.S. military brings to a fight.  Between their helicopters and jets they had dropped 19 bombs, fired two Hellfire missiles, 205 rockets, 500 rounds of 20 mm, and 210 rounds of 30 mm cannon.  They also discharged 3,750 rounds of .50 caliber [12.7 mm] machine gun ammunition.  And yet, only once, could they confirm that they had killed a single Taliban fighter.”

What Economic Recovery? S&P’s declares Greece in default of debt! Proof that re-negotiating your debt won’t save you!

February 27, 2012, Standard & Poor’s declares Greece to be in default!  S&P’s blamed it on the debt restructuring deal currently being negotiated.

Greek officials say they were expecting it. Other credit rating agencies are expected to do the same thing.  This makes Greece the first European Union member to default.

S&P’s explained that loan contracts state that loan restructuring is condition for default status: “As we have previously stated, we may view an issuer’s unilateral change of the original terms and conditions of an obligation as a de facto restructuring and thus a default by Standard & Poor’s published definition.”

World War 3: Proof that Israelis are Re-negers! Portent of things to come in the U.S. under NDAA 2012

“The zionist regime has reneged on the swap deal…Egypt, who brokered the deal, must oblige the Israelis to respect it and release the prisoners…”-Islam Abdo, Hamas

At the end of 2011 Israel agreed to release at least 1,000 Palestinian Gazans (the overwhelming majority never being charged with any crime), in exchange for one Israeli soldier held captive in Gaza.

A California based human rights group, Israeli forces are now arbitrarily re-arresting those Gazans!  Israel is reneging on its promise (not surprising).

“These re-arrests…are part of Israel’s ongoing repression of just[ified] resistance by the Palestinian people against the ongoing occupation, apartheid and siege imposed upon their land.”-Joe Catron, activist

Some of those re-arrested, including women, are on hunger strike.  Hamas is calling upon Egypt to intervene!

People of the United States should take heed, because the tactics being used by Israel, to arbitrarily arrest people, could be used under the NDAA 2012 act, passed by Republican dominated Congress and signed into law by President Barack Obama.

World War 3: Afghans call for Global Muslim March on Jerusalem Al-Quds!!!

The following is a statement released by various organizations in Afghanistan calling for a Global March on Jerusalem (GMJ):

In the service of our dear and faithful brothers and sisters in the “Program for the Asian Co-ordination of the Global March to Jerusalem”.

May the peace and blessing of God be upon you.

The reality is that Jerusalem is the bloodied heart of the Islamic world. Jerusalem, the place which is a representative of the existence of the religion and culture of Islam, has been under the boots of despotism and occupation for more than 60 years. Our faithful brothers and sisters have been bloodthirstily sent to their deaths by the hands of Zionism and international Crusades. For six decades the people of these lands have been driven out of their homes, the conspiracies of the arrogant powers have rendered their homes demolished and their land has been usurped. Millions of refugees, who are citizens of Palestine, have been driven far from their territories and a combination of all these factors has created a major catastrophe in the Middle East. It is obvious that the clear religion of Islam, with decisive arguments from the book of God and his Prophet (PBUH), does not tolerate these terrible crimes.

It is also apparent that our dear Islam has made clear what our responsibilities are in light of the divine constitutions. 60 years of deadly silence despite the power of the Arab Middle East has been against the direction of the actions of an Islamic nation. In these 60 years the rulers and statesmen of Islamic countries have had plenty of time which has been put to waste.

However, luckily the last ten years have resulted in the emergence of a different plot, this being the result of the establishment of popular governments and the falling of those hands which were connected with colonialism. Especially the flooding by these popular revolutions of the last strongholds, or embassy (or “den of spying”), in the Islamic countries showed us that this regime is no more in a position where it can create more enemies from amongst the Muslims.

Dear brothers and sisters!

Taking into account all of the above, the Islamic circuits in Afghanistan with the Islamic Movement of Afghanistan and the Council of the Friends of Jerusalem have united in one voice and have answered positively to your call. We will not hesitate in our selflessness or cooperation to make sure the goals set out by this group are made into reality. The same way that the Islamic Movement of Afghanistan has praised and taken this reasonable step, it invites all the Muslim brothers and sisters of Afghanistan, Islamic world and other Muslims worldwide to wish good luck (to this movement) and we desire that they cooperate and assist this caravan till it has reached that which it has set out for.
