World War 3: Putin vs Obama

14 March 2014 (01:30 UTC-07 Tango)/12 Jumada l-Ula 1435/23 Esfand 1392/14 Ding-Mao 4712

If war was based on opinion polls, then the United States has already lost World War 3!

“…..the figure surpassed 70% and this latest growth is certainly linked with Vladimir Putin’s position on Ukrainian issue and the situation over the country. This means that at least two thirds of Russian residents support what Putin is doing……..I believe that after a Crimean referendum Putin’s rating will easily exceed 75%!”-Konstantin Simonov, Financial University

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll (for 13 March 2014) shows support by U.S. voters for the Obama regime is down to 45%!

Now compare that to the latest All-Russian Public Opinion Research Center poll concerning Vladimir Putin.   Russian voters who approve of Putin’s actions has hit a record 71.6%!

Is your insurance data safe? 3rd biggest insurance company loses data for 40-thousand customers!

13 March 2014 (11:14 UTC-07 Tango)/11 Jumada l-Ula 1435/22 Esfand 1392/13 Ding-Mao 4712

After buying up several smaller competitors, and becoming a dominant insurance seller on the internet, the third largest life insurance company (by revenue) has discovered they’ve lost data for 40-thousand customers.

Japan’s number 3, Dai-ichi Life, discovered that two data tapes went missing last month.  Only now are they telling the public.  The tapes contain names, addresses and medical histories of customers.

Last month Dai-ichi Life took over Sompo Japan insurance company, as well as Dai-ichi Frontier Life (which was originally affiliated with Sompo).

Dai-ichi Life also expanded operations into Vietnam.  Vietnam’s state-run Vietnam Television is running commercials for Dai-ichi Life, that have the slogan “Bringing the bond of reassurance to countries and regions around the world”.

Don’t think the company is making its money off insurance customers.  Dai-ichi Life has about $39-billion USD invested in government bonds, and they’re focusing on the failed economies of Spain and Italy with the hope of a big turnaround, soon!

Exceptional Failed State: U.S. job losses & store closings 04 December 2013. 2-thousand teachers will be laid off, in one state! YMCA turns to the Devil? More health care cuts!

Incomplete list of announced closings and layoffs:

What housing market recovery?  Too big to Jail Ocwen Financial, laid off more than 800 employees across the U.S.!  It’s blamed on their take over of GMAC Mortgage.

California:  Hewlett Packard announced they will kill 1124 jobs in European Union!  It’s part of the Californian company’s plan to kill 29-thousand jobs around the world by October 2014!

Connecticut: In Orange, a Stop & Shop shutdown, 123 jobs affected!

Delaware: In Greenwood, long time Yoder’s Country Store shutdown.  The family owners blame it on Walmart and dollar stores.

Florida: White Springs Agriculture Chemicals shutdown.  350 jobs lost! Company officials say the phosphate industry is becoming more competitive.

Kentucky:  In Lexington, Kentucky Proud Market shutdown.  The store manager said it was not for economic reasons, but she was not allowed to disclose the reason. The state Board of Education warned of massive layoffs throughout the taxpayer funded public school system.  2-thousand educators and staff could be laid off by spring 2014: “With sequestration, district bailout of the Kentucky School Board Insurance Trust, and budget cuts, we are headed for the ‘perfect storm’. By next March or April, we predict 10-12 districts will fail to meet their basic financial commitment and we will see pink slips like we’ve never seen before.“-Terry Holliday, Commissioner.    Compare that to 1800 who lost their jobs over the past three years.

Maryland:  MedStar laid off 74 hospital workers.

Michigan: In Dexter, ReCellular shutdown their distribution facility.  120 jobs lost!  It’s blamed on the loss of a major contract.

New Jersey:  Optimer Pharmaceuticals killed 177 jobs!  The company was sold to a competitor.

New York: Computer chip maker, GlobalFoundries, laid off 30 people as part of its plan to be more competitive.  In Forrest Hills, Perfume Globe shutdown.

Pennsylvania: In Philadelphia, Atlantic Express school bus service laid off 518 employees!  The company is bankrupt.

Ohio: Three Friendly’s restaurants shutdown.  Company officials said they were “underperforming”.

Texas: In Longview, Joy Global announced more layoffs, but refused to give numbers.  The company says demand for its products continues to crash.  This is the third round of layoffs in 2013.

Wisconsin: In Dane County, the Christian god couldn’t stop his YMCA from laying off 13 employees. The YMCA turned to the Devil, unAmerican Corporate America, and conducted a typical Wall Street survey that said even though they had not lost members, they weren’t gaining any either, so cuts had to be made.  The YMCA made drastic changes to its youth programs, as well.  Member Lisa Pierobon Mays, says the YMCA has lost its way: “It’s a real bait-and-switch they’ve done. Shows how out of touch they are.”

01-03 December 2013:  Property tax increase can’t stop city layoffs! 

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) doesn’t count the hundreds of layoffs involving less than 50 people each, in its mass layoff reports. It also doesn’t count all the little ‘mom & pop’ businesses that shut down.

More Economic Decline: Ashley Furniture shuts down liquidation center in Pocatello! So much for their “investment”!

12 March 2014 (15:54 UTC-07 Tango)/10 Jumada l-Ula 1435/21 Esfand 1392/12 Ding-Mao 4712

A local southeast Idaho TV station reported that Coldwell Banker realtor, Don Zebe, claims Ashley Furniture is simply selling off an “investment”, and has no plans to leave Pocatello, Idaho.   Yet he is the agent selling off both their Pocatello properties!

Ashley Furniture dumping their Oak Street "investment". Sales got so bad they started selling used cars in 2013!

Ashley Furniture Liquidation dumping their Oak Street “investment”. Sales got so bad they started selling used cars in 2013!

Ashley Furniture's Hurley Drive "investment", now up for sale. It sits on property that used to be residential, until the city forced the home owners out, so they could bring in the California based furniture seller.

Ashley Furniture HomeStore’s Hurley Drive “investment”, now up for sale. It sits on property that used to be residential, until the city forced the home owners out, so they could bring in the “independently” owned furniture store.

Zebe has the Ashley Furniture HomeStore listed for sale at $3.2-million USD, and the Ashley Furniture Liquidation store listed at $647,600.

Ashley Furniture recently announced they had more than $3-billion in furniture sales in 2013.  They also opened their 500th store, in Texas.  They claim they’re going to open 50 new stores across the U.S. in 2014.

But wait, it turns out that Ashley Furniture HomeStore, and Ashley Furniture Liquidation stores are independently owned.   These so called independently owned stores sell furniture made by Ashley Furniture Industries.

So, are the independent owners of Pocatello’s Ashley Furniture HomeStore and Liquidation stores just cashing in on their “investments”, or is there a plan in the works for new locations in Pocatello, or maybe Chubbuck?

Ada County: A 29 years old County Jail prisoner died.  Officials say he ODed on drugs.  So how’d he get the drugs mister prison officials?  Prison guards claim they got an anonymous note about the illegal drugs.  The prisoner was found sweating and shaking, but no drugs were found.  He was taken to a hospital where he suffered and died of a heart attack.

CCA (Corrections Corporation of America) is asking a judge to temporarily suspend a lawsuit until the FBI’s investigation into the Gladiator School is finished.

Bannock County: It’s been revealed a prison guard at the Pocatello Women’s Correctional Center was fired on 05 March 2014, for threaten his wife by holding a knife against her neck (so much for gun control laws).  He has been arrested.

Barack Obama is in his last term as president of the United States.  Then why is his super pac, CREDO, hitting Idahoans hard with anti-Tea Party propaganda, including offers of cell phone service that funds the Obama regime?

“The CREDO Super PAC was created by CREDO Mobile to leverage the company’s list of nearly 3 million activists and CREDO Action’s high-impact team of professional organizers. CREDO Mobile is the nation’s only progressive phone company and has raised more than $72 million for social change since its founding in 1985.”-CREDO super pac statement

False Flag MH370 update: Missing airliner reveals new Global terrorism base in Thailand! Officials blame Iran! Five passengers never got on plane!

10 March 2014 (09:52 UTC-07 Tango)/08 Jumada l-Ula 1435/19 Esfand 1392/10 Ding-Mao 4712

“Thailand has been used by some international terrorist groups as a zone of operation, to raise funds or to plan attacks.”-Rommel Banlaoi, terrorism analyst

“Thailand is a destination for international crime organizations who use it to secure travel documents, financial documents. It’s not just linked to terrorism but to other crimes. It’s a complex network, connected to other networks.”-Unnamed Thai intelligence official

“A police team combined with local police and immigration are working to track down a passport ring.”-Panya Mamen, Thai police commander

“If Malaysia Airlines and all airlines worldwide were able to check the passport details of prospective passengers against our database, then we would not have to speculate whether stolen passports were used by terrorists to board MH370.”-Ronald Noble, International Criminal Police Organization (aka ICPO, aka Interpol)

Surprisingly many countries do not check Interpol’s data base of stolen passports!

Thai police announced they are focusing their crack down on passport theft operations to the island of Phuket.   Both the ‘fake’ MH370 passengers who bought consecutive tickets used faked passports that were made using stolen passports on the island resort.

In Thailand people who engage in making and selling fake passports can be jailed for up to 20 years, but here’s the problem; officials admit many Thai police are actually involved in the fake passport operations!

China Southern Airlines, which works with Malaysian Airlines, revealed that the two ‘fake’ passengers with consecutive tickets had also bought tickets to fly from China to Europe.  The tickets were bought in Thailand.

The Thai travel agent who sold the tickets said the purchase of the tickets was actually arraigned over the phone by a man who claimed to be Iranian.  She had also sold tickets to the ‘fake’ passengers for an earlier flight, on 06 March, but the tickets expired.  She said the “Iranian” gave his name as Ali, only.   She said she did regular business with this “Ali”, and he always paid in cash.

“We have stopped men with false or stolen passports and carrying explosives, who have tried to get past KLIA security and get on to a plane. There have been two or three incidents, but I will not divulge the details.”-Unnamed senior Malaysian police official to Reuters

There were reports that Malaysian police identified one of the two ‘fake’ passengers.  No further details.

Vietnam reports their search planes have lost sight of what they thought might be wreckage of the Boeing 777.  Oil slicks on the ocean turned out not to be from an aircraft, according to lab tests of oil samples.

Airline officials have revealed that five passengers who checked in, never got on the plane.  Their luggage was also removed from the plane before takeoff.

Chinese officials have been criticizing the lax security in Malaysia.  The majority of passengers on MH370 were Chinese.

False Flag Ukraine: Video shows Jewish politician with M4 in trunk of car, apparently after he shot at police & protestors!

A video posted to the internet on 19 February 2014 is finally getting attention.  It purports to show Jewish Ukrainian Sergey Pashinsky, of the Fatherland Party.

The video clearly shows a soft guncase containing an M4 (M16/AR-15 family) in the trunk of the man’s car.  He’s allowed to leave with the gun.  The original YouTube posting says the M4 had a silencer, and that Pashinsky shot both a “Berkut” and a “Maidan” .

I’ve already written about ‘former’ Israeli Defense Force soldiers admitting they are leading Jewish rebel groups in Ukraine.
