As they have pilfered the US government's credit card, this means the American tax payer is paying for the Taliban. And since Barack Obama is sending an additional 68,000 soldiers, "over the next several years", this won't be small Change.  The role of America's Illuminati political "leadership" is to shepherd these funds through Congress (i.e. the credit card terminal.) Last week, Hillary Clinton sounded critical of Pakistan but she was actually campaigning for $7.5 billion in "economic" aid and $3 billion in military assistance for Pakistan. She said the money is needed for more "government services." No doubt, this includes the Illuminati's payment for providing America with an enemy. The Illuminati hide in plain sight. Just Google "Pakistan Aid to Taliban" and discover what US legislators and media should know. The Taliban is financed, trained and run by Pakistan's Interservices Intelligence Agency. The ISI is a branch of the CIA, which is run by the Illuminati bankers. In October 2006, NATO clearly identified the Taliban as an ISI operation: "NATO is now mapping the entire Taliban support structure in Balochistan, from ISI - run training camps near Quetta to huge ammunition dumps, arrival points for Taliban's new weapons and meeting places of the shura, or leadership council, in Quetta, which is headed by Mullah Mohammed Omar, the group's leader since its creation a dozen years ago... In Panjwai the Taliban had also established a training camp to teach guerrillas how to penetrate Kandahar, a separate camp to train suicide bombers and a full surgical field hospital. Nato estimated the cost of Taliban ammunition stocks at around £2.6 million. "The Taliban could not have done this on their own without the ISI," said a senior NATO officer. This may explain why Pakistan with an army of 500,000 and 500,000 reservists has shown no appetite for confronting the Taliban. The country is probably run by the ISI. In August, 2008, George W. Bush read the riot act to the Pakistanis (wink, wink): "President George W Bush confronted Yusuf Raza Gillani, Pakistan's prime minister, in Washington with evidence of involvement by the ISI, its military intelligence, in a deadly attack on the Afghan capital and warned of retaliation if it continues. ...   Gillani... was left in no doubt that the Bush administration had lost patience with the ISI's alleged double game." Paradoxically, the US uses the Taliban as an excuse to fund the Pakistanis!: Last Friday, "Gen. David Petraeus urged Congress to approve $3 billion in aid to Pakistan for training its troops to fight insurgents in tribal areas. The most important, most pressing threat to the very existence of their country is the threat posed by the internal extremists and groups such as the Taliban and the syndicated extremists." So let's keep this straight. The US is fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan while using the Taliban as an excuse to fund Pakistan who is maintaining the Taliban. Oh dear. And from Pakistan's viewpoint, the Taliban is the reason they are getting all this money. Meanwhile Pakistan is a nuclear power. But it is not our enemy. Iran is our enemy. By some logic, Pakistan can have nuclear weapons but its neighbor Iran cannot. In conclusion, in the New World Order there must be perpetual war and someone's got to pay for an enemy. So, the US is funding both sides of the Afghanistan war.  If Americans aren't kept busy fighting Muslim extremists, they might figure out who their real enemy is, and we can't have that.  --- The British May be Helping ISI Train the Taliban http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/revealed-british-plan-to-build-training-camp-for-taliban-fighters-in-afghanistan-777671.html   The Taliban Opium Connection http://www.metimes.com/International/2008/05/14/the_taliban_opium_connection/2650/ Related, "NATO Spooked by Afghan Laws Upholding Patriarchy"   Comments for 'American Taxpayers Finance the Taliban" Hassen said (April 26, 2009):   An interesting quote; makes a lot of sense with some of the headlines we see today.   'The world Zionist movement should not be neglectful of the dangers of Pakistan to it.

'It is essential that we exploit this base and strike and crush Pakistanis, enemies of Jews and Zionism, by all disguised and secret plans.'   -David Ben Gurion, the first Israeli Prime Minister.His words, as printed in the Jewish Chronicle,9 August 1967:             'President Obama showed his hand this week when The New York Times wrote that he is considering converting the stock the government owns in our country's banks from preferred stock, which it now holds, to common stock.   This seemingly insignificant change is momentous. It means that the federal government will control all of the major banks and financial institutions in the nation. It means socialism.'   Read ...       Obama's leap to socialism By Dick Morris   Posted: 04/21/09 05:21 PM [ET]     President Obama showed his hand this week when The New York Times wrote that he is considering converting the stock the government owns in our country's banks from preferred stock, which it now holds, to common stock. This seemingly insignificant change is momentous. It means that the federal government will control all of the major banks and financial institutions in the nation. It means socialism. The Times dutifully dressed up the Obama plan as a way to avoid asking Congress for more money for failing banks. But the implications of the proposal are obvious to anyone who cares to look. When the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) intervention was first outlined by the Bush administration, it did not call for any transfer of stock, of any sort, to the government. The Democrats demanded, as a price for their support, that the taxpayers 'get something back' for the money they were lending to the banks. House Republicans, wise to what was going on, rejected the administration's proposal and sought, instead, to provide insurance to banks, rather than outright cash. Their plan would, of course, not involve any transfer of stock. But Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) undercut his own party's conservatives and went along with the Democratic plan, ensuring its passage. But to avoid the issue of a potential for government control of the banks, everybody agreed that the stock the feds would take back in return for their money would be preferred stock, not common stock. 'Preferred' means that these stockholders get the first crack at dividends, but only common stockholders can actually vote on company management or policy. Now, by changing this fundamental element of the TARP plan, Obama will give Washington a voting majority among the common stockholders of these banks and other financial institutions. The almost 500 companies receiving TARP money will be, in effect, run by Washington. And whoever controls the banks controls the credit and, therefore, the economy. That's called socialism. Obama is dressing up the idea of the switch to common stock by noting that the conversion would provide the banks with capital they could use without a further taxpayer appropriation. While this is true, it flies in the face of the fact that an increasing number of big banks and brokerage houses are clamoring to give back the TARP money. Goldman-Sachs, for example, wants to buy back its freedom, as do many banks. Even AIG is selling off assets to dig its way out from under federal control. The reason, of course, is that company executives do not like the restrictions on executive pay and compensation that come with TARP money. It is for this reason that Chrysler Motors refused TARP funds. With bank profits up and financial institutions trying to give back their money, there is no need for the conversion of the government stock from preferred to common —   except to advance the political socialist agenda of this administration. Meanwhile, to keep its leverage over the economy intact, the Obama administration is refusing to let banks and other companies give back the TARP money until they pass a financial 'stress test.' Nominally, the government justifies this procedure by saying that it does not want companies to become fully private prematurely and then need more help later on. But don't believe it. They want to keep the TARP money in the banks so they can have a reason and rationale to control them. The Times story did not influence the dialogue of the day. People were much more concerned with the death of 21 horses at a polo match. Much as we will miss these noble animals, we will miss our economic freedom more. Morris, a former adviser to Sen. Trent Lott (R-Miss.) and President Bill Clinton, is the author of Outrage.

Jack Bauer can't stop 'The Goldman Conspiracy'

10 reasons why Wall Street has absolute power over America's democracy

By Paul B. Farrell, MarketWatch

 

Last update: 7:13 p.m. EDT April 20, 2009

Comments: 716

 

 

ARROYO GRANDE, Calif. (MarketWatch) -- Two mind-numbing fast-paced dramas. Two parallel worlds. One real, one fiction, both deadly. Jack Bauer, mythic hero of "24."

 

Dying from a deadly bio-pathogen leaked from weapons developed by Starkwood, a rogue mercenary army attacking the presidency, hell-bent on taking over America.

 

The other drama in play: "Hank the Hammer" Paulson, iconic Wall Street hero, a Trojan Horse placed inside Washington by Goldman Sachs as Treasury Secretary in control of America's $15 trillion economy. Goldman, a modern dynasty with vast financial powers much like those once used by the de' Medici, Rothschilds and Morgans to control nations.

 

Video: Is a correction imminent?

 

 

One of the confounding aspects of bear market rallies is that the longer they last, the more likely investors are to expect a correction, says Barron's Bob O'Brien.

 

Both dramas play high-stakes games with financial WMDs that have lethal consequences. Jack compresses thrills, kills and chills into 24 hours. Hank, Goldman and their army of Wall Street mercenaries move with equally blinding speed, heart-pounding action.

 

Drama? You bet. Six short months ago Hank led an assault on Congress. The scene parallels one in "24:" Sangala War Lord Juma's brazen attack inside the White House. But no AK-47s necessary. The Hammer assaulted Congress with just a two-and-a-half page memo in hand. Like a crack special-ops warrior, he took down the enemy, demanding $750 billion, absolute control, total secrecy, no accountability and emergency powers to act immediately ...

 

warning that inaction was not an option, that collapse of America's banking system was imminent, would bring down the global monetary system, pushing world's economies into a "Great Depression II." Congress surrendered.

 

 

Here's the whole plot:

 

Scene 1. American government is now run by the 'Goldman Conspiracy'

Only in America can you...

http://careandwashingofthebrain.blogspot.com/2009/04/only-in-america-can-you.html

 

 

Destroy crime scene evidence of the mass murder of 3,000 people and tell a multitude of lies about some cave dwelling patsies and the people will flock to you for protection, cheering you on as you strut about the Nuremberg podium at the WTC.

Tell 1,000 lies or more to scare Americans into invading a country that was NO harm to the USA and had NOTHING to do with 9/11 and your reward is a cushy retirement, with the best medical care in the world, living in a multimillion dollar home you bought with "campaign" donations, get protected 24/7 by SS agents and stand to make around 20 million for speaking fees.

Spy on the USA, handing over business and military secrets to our "friend" and get rewarded by getting elevated to chair a House committee on Homeland Security and in the process of serving Israel, reap in a fortune worth around 500 million.

Torture some poor bastard to death and make snuff movies about it so you can watch them in the privacy of your room later on and beat off to the sounds of the man's death rattle... and get promoted.

Illegally spy on Americans, eviscerating the Bill of Rights, then brag about it to your DOJ head and have a good laugh.

Loot Wall Street pension funds and 401K retirement accounts for trillions and your "punishment" is to get rewarded several trillion more from your buds in the Treasury department.

Butcher thousands of Lebanese and Palestinians and not only see an increase of weaponry delivered to support the next blood soaked invasion, but have US Senators and Reps fighting one another to see who can get to the microphone first to profess their loyalty and undying love of all things Apartheid.



But goddamn it, if we catch you smoking pot, we'll arrest your ass so fast your head will spin.

Since 2000, how many Americans have been arrested for marijuana possession?

FIVE MILLION

Since 2001, how many of the politicians that lied the US into an illegal and immoral war against Iraq and have helped loot Wall Street have been arrested and tried for their crimes?

ZERO, not counting "Scooter" LIbby, who had his sentence for perjury commuted.    

 

 

Fed Admits "Stress Tests" Are a Sham

http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2009/04/fed-admits-stress-tests-are-sham.html

 

 

The "stress tests" were supposed to triage those banks worth saving from those which were already too far gone to save.

But as Nouriel Roubini, FDIC chief Sheila Bair, Nobel economist Paul Krugman, former senior S&L regulator William Black and many others said, the "stress tests" are a sham.

 

 

Well, they've been proven right.

 

The Fed said today that - instead of letting the insolvent banks fail - which is what virtually all of the independent experts are recommending (see this for example), the Fed will rescue all banks which fail the stress test.

 

Indeed, the Fed itself says:

Even if the tests showed a bank needs more capital, that "is not a measure of the current solvency or viability of the firm," the Fed said in Friday's announcement about the test methodology.

 

So the stress tests have nothing to do with solvency or viability, the advertised purpose behind the tests.

 

As the above-linked article from Huffington Post points out:

The announcement reinforced the Fed's view that major financial firms are "too big to fail," and that the government must do whatever is necessary to save them, said former Fed examiner Mark Williams.

 

"It appears 'too big to fail' is a fundamental philosophy _ it's a philosophical principle," said Williams, a finance professor at Boston University.

 

In extreme cases, a rescue could include a government-backed merger, similar to what regulators did in helping Bank of America to buy Merrill Lynch and JPMorgan Chase & Co. to buy Bear Stearns.

 

Critics say that policy has put taxpayer money at risk to give banks billions in government bailouts and guarantees.

Indeed.

Every Youngster to Carry Out 50 hours Community Service by Age 19

 

'Schools will be offered new assistance starting in September to enable their pupils to undertake the voluntary service in their local communities. If the new target is not reached, Gordon Brown will consider making voluntary service a compulsory part of the secondary school curriculum.'

 

This is just a stepping-stone to compulsory service to the state.

These two facts are fundamentally related in that the history came with the announcement by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Alistair Darling, that he intends to trigger a record UK government debt; the classic bit was his prediction that an economic recovery would begin at the end of 2009. In the United States, Barack Obama, songster for the Wall Street cabal, has talked of ‘hopeful signs’ that the economy is improving. It’s all a con. They are having you on. I have been saying since October/November that the engineered economic collapse is planned to have three major phases: (1) To crash the economy (done); (2) To have governments borrow extraordinary amounts of money from the very banking and financial cartel that the same ‘money’ is being spent to ‘bail out’ (being done); (3) To crash the economy still further when government options are exhausted and leave them with no way of responding (waiting to be done). Then they step forward to 'save us' with a globally centralised banking dictatorship based on a World Central Bank.   ‘Scamming the people is such fun – and so easy.’    TO SUBSCRIBE TO THE DAVID ICKE NEWSLETTER, GET IMMEDIATE ACCESS  TO HIS FANTASTIC NEWSLETTER LIBRARY ON A HOST OF SUBJECTS GOING BACK TO 2005, AND SEE HOURS OF VIDEO FOOTAGE OF DAVID'S INFORMATION, PLEASE CLICK HERE ...   Thursday, 23 April 2009 New David Icke All-Day Events Around The World   Phoenix, Arizona, October 17th   David will be talking all day with his 1,000 illustrations.     Tickets available mid-May.   Supported by the Meria Heller Show   ---------------------------------------------------------   Seattle/Vancouver, October 4th      David will be speaking all-day at the Mount Baker Theatre in Bellingham, Washington State.    Tickets available from tomorrow by clicking here  ...     ---------------------------------------------------------   Events are also being organised for Zurich, Switzerland, on November 14th and Reykjavik, Iceland, on November 21st.

Surging violence across Pakistan and the spread of Taliban influence through its northwest are reviving concerns about the stability of the nuclear-armed country, an important US ally vital to efforts to stabilize neighboring Afghanistan.'   Demonising Pakistan after years of supporting its previous military dictator is all part of the grand plan, as we shall see.   Read more...   Thursday, 23 April 2009 Children Tracked by Sat nav to Stop Bad Behaviour   'The project is being trialled across the six North Wales counties to tackle anti-social behaviour on school buses. Pupils will use a picture swipe card to clock on and off the bus allowing parents to keep a closer check on their child via a website.   It will help deal with a number of issues including truancy, drivers reporting and identifying ill-behaved children and monitoring a child's whereabouts in the event of them going missing or a bus breakdown. The scheme include 'Bus Angels' aged 14 and above, who covertly report incidents of bad behaviour.'

Certainly, not applying it to the large number of rich and powerful people that have violated our Constitution and plunged the nation into economic disaster.   Again and again we hear the flimsy argument from Obama and his top advisors that he wants to look forward and not backward. This is tortured logic when it comes to delivering justice in a nation supposedly cherishing the rule of law.'   Read more...   Thursday, 23 April 2009 British Soldiers 'Tortured and Murdered 20 Iraqis, Then Covered it up With Firefight Claim'   'British soldiers tortured and murdered up to 20 Iraqis in cold blood, the High Court was told yesterday. It happened after a three-hour gun battle at an Army checkpoint near Basra, a lawyer claimed. Rabinder Singh said a group of local men were taken prisoner and transported to an Army camp where they were beaten with a rusty tent pole, punched, slammed against walls, denied water, blasted with loud music and forced to strip naked in the presence of a woman - a humiliation for Muslim men.'

Sustainable Population Australia says slashing the world's population is the only way to avoid "environmental suicide".   National president Sandra Kanck wants Australia's population of almost 22 million reduced to seven million to tackle climate change. And restricting each couple to one baby, as China does, is "one way of assisting to reduce the population".'   Read more...   Thursday, 23 April 2009 IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE WORLD TODAY AND WHY - READ THIS  It is the most comprehensive explanation you have ever seen Click here for more information...   Thursday, 23 April 2009 Credit Card Giants Mock Pleas to be Fair 'Credit card giants have dramatically increased interest rates and found other back-door methods to wring cash from hard-pressed customers. Despite cuts in the Bank of England base rate to a record low of 0.5 per cent, banks and others have imposed punishing increases on the cost of using cards. Some have added as much as 4 points to the headline interest rate charged to customers over the past year, taking the figure up to almost 20 per cent. The moves directly contradict demands from the Prime Minister for banks to treat credit card customers fairly.'
