Meet the Banksters: World Financial Corruption Schemes Unraveling
by James Corbett
www.corbettreport.com
What do you get when you cross a banker and a gangster? A bankster, of course. The temptation might be to think of this as colorful hyperbole, but it's not. Exactly as the gangsters of old colluded to buy off the regulators, rub out the competition, and swindle the public, so too do the big banks cheat, steal, lie and swindle to support their corrupt practices. Although there is no dearth of evidence to support this thesis, this week was particularly ripe with examples of just how the banksters run their racket.
The biggest news, of course, was the unraveling of the Libor lie. Even more amazing than the scandal itself is the fact that people are hearing about it on mainstream television. Everything you've heard is true. It is, dollar for dollar (or, more accurately, pound for pound), the largest scam ever perpetrated through the banking system. Or at least the biggest scam unearthed so far. For those who don't know (and somehow managed to miss the multiple explanations in the commercial press), Libor is the London Inter Bank Offered Rate. It represents the average lending rate between banks for a number of currencies and maturities. The reason the fixing of this rate is so monumentally important is that so many loans and derivatives are priced off of Libor. Some estimates place the value of Libor-linked loans and securities (interest rate swaps, syndicated loans, currencies, variable rate mortgages, forward rate agreements, etc.) at 800 trillion dollars, or about 10 times the GDP of the entire planet. To say that small changes in these rates can have large knock-on effects in the economy at large is an understatement. This isn't to say that the rates were always manipulated upward to maximize profit. They can and were manipulated downward at times, too, to convey a confidence in the stability of the banks that the banksters weren't necessarily feeling on the street.
Here's the rub: the Libor scandal can't be swept under the rug by blaming “one bad apple.” It's the go-to excuse whenever the banksters are caught with their pants down, but it won't hold this time. The Libor isn't set by one bank, but by a number of them; eight, twelve, sixteen or twenty depending on the currency involved. The top and bottom quartile are thrown out and the middle 50% of values are averaged out to arrive at the final figure. In order to actually effect manipulation of the rate, over a quarter of the banks would have to be committed to skewing the numbers. And the whole thing requires, needless to say, a generous helping of governmental consent. And so it was that after the Barclays $455 million smackdown and the resignation of CEO Bob Diamond, Barclays itself released a memo detailing a conversation between Diamond and the Deputy Governor of the Bank of England, Paul Tucker, which seemed to suggest that the BOE was pressuring Barclays to drive the Libor down during the height of the credit crisis in October 2008. Cue Bob Diamond, ex-Barclays CEO, who resigned earlier this week and then sat down to testify before Parliament. Diamond claimed that Tucker and the BOE wasn't trying to pressure Barclays into manipulating Libor, but he did reveal that he had been trying to blow the whistle for years on the collusion of other banks in fixing the rate. According to him, senior Labour MPs knew full well what was happening but nothing was ever done about the practice. Current British Chancellor George Osborne has opined that Gordon Brown's cronies were “clearly involved.” The regulators failing to regulate? Why, I never!
If this is all too follow-the-bouncing-ball for you, the short and skinny is this: banks around the world were in on the fixing of Libor. Government “regulators” knew and didn't step in.
Well, then, this seems pretty open and shut. The largest rate fixing scandal in the history of the world. Hundreds of trillions in loans and derivatives effected. Banks all over the world allegedly involved. Government regulators looking the other way. Surely this is the start of the Great Banking Bust-up of 2012 that we were pining for last week, the turning of the tide against the banksters and the beginning of public arrests, trials and convictions of the multi-trillion dollar racketeers and scamsters populating Wall Street, Washington, the City and London?...
Not by a long shot. So far Barclays has had to pay its fine, and it has lost its chairman, CEO and COO in the scandal. But what of all of those other banks around the world? What about the MPs who were allegedly in cahoots with them? When will they be rounded up? I know this is going to shock you, but the answer is: likely never. As of press time, Cameron has proposed a joint MP/peer led “investigation” into the scandal that will propose “reforms” to be implemented by the start of next year. This despite the fact that his own Attorney General has advised that any inquiry will likely prejudice criminal proceedings against the offenders. Ironically, the larger the scandal turns out to be, the less likely we will see criminal prosecutions and class action lawsuits. When the rot is exposed as systemic, the “reformers” will step in to make sure that this type of scandal “never happens again.” And so it is that the likelihood of seeing real, substantive, criminal investigations into the matter becomes less and less likely as the public gets suckered once again by platitudes about “reform” and “looking forward.” If you're not sure how that works, just ask an Obama supporter who believed the Obama administration was going to investigate the criminal activities of the Bush era; they can tell you all about it. Meanwhile, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are divorcing, so the public won't be asked to think too deeply about this whole largest-scam-in-history thing for very long.
One is tempted to just shrug one's shoulders and move on, but perhaps the story deserves more than a few pithy paragraphs. A single bank being hit with a half billion loss on what amounts to the largest racketeering scheme in the history of the planet is hardly proportional. Why is it that a woman in Houston can be thrown in jail for holding up a sign warning drivers about a speed trap up ahead, but banksters who literally siphon untold billions out of the economy cannot be charged with anything? And why can a public that can be infuriated by Tour de France doping scandals not bother to hold the banksters to account? These should not be rhetorical questions.
But wait, there's more. Much less reported is how the same Libor-fixing scandal is playing out in the US right now. Citigroup, BOA, and a dozen or so other banks are facing a suit by a group of institutional investors alleging that they participated in the exact same type of Libor-fixing that Barclays just got dinged for. The banks have motioned for dismissal, but given the attention on the case and the nature of the scandal, it's unlikely to be dismissed so easily. Instead, market watchers note that an admission of criminal wrongdoing is unthinkable, so the only question is what size will the eventual payout be and how much leniency will banks get for playing ball with investigators. Which leads us to the ongoing JPMorgan fiasco. (You know it's a busy news week when the story of a $9 billion trading loss gets relegated to the ninth paragraph.) When their initial $2 billion trading loss on credit derivatives was announced in May, CEO Jamie Dimon was predicting that number could double as the bank unwinds the trade and clears its position. That number may actually be closer to $9 billion. The new figure comes from an internal report from last April that showed a worst-case scenario of the loss could mean the bank will lose much more than it bargained for. The real test comes next Friday when they release their second quarter results. The smart money is on the bank losing as much from the trade as they made in profit in the quarter.
But as if that's not enough, now Dimon and the boys at JPMorgan face a fresh scandal. J.P. Morgan Ventures Energy Corp. is being sued by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission over allegations that Morgan had tried to manipulate energy prices upward in California and the Midwest. Now a federal judge is ordering the company to explain why it shouldn't turn over emails that will shed light on its role in the scandal. Another week, another black eye for the JPMorgan crew.
And in some ways that's the point. What better sign of the bankster nature of those in the hot seat than that they take beating after metaphorical beating in full view of the public, from rate-fixing scams to historical trading losses to market manipulations and yet nothing ever seems to change? The “investigative journalists” get a chance to break a big story, they play it out in the back pages of the newspaper for a few months, politicians get on their high horse and make wonderful sounding speeches about the need to rout out the rot at the heart of the system, a gold star panel is appointed to look into the problem, an ineffectual and toothless new regulatory regime is rolled out to placate whatever of the general public still remembers the problem in the first place, and everything is patched over until the next scandal erupts. Who else but organized criminals with bought-and-paid for “regulators” in their back pockets could possibly get away with such crimes?
Oh, and the piece de resistance? A certain European market rag that shall remain nameless (the third most read in Europe behind FT and The Economist, we're told) just bestowed its Awards for Excellence 2012. Any guesses on the Best Global Flow House, Best Global Debt House, and Best Investment Bank and Risk Adviser in United States? Just a little outfit called Barclays. To coin a phrase: It's good to be a bankster.

Ron Paul will win the nomination! Romney is going down.

Ron Paul will win the nomination! Romney is going down.
Listen to this report on the recent case against the Romney campaign by "Lawyers for Ron Paul":

A lawsuit was filed against Romney and the RNC, and the lawyers for Ron Paul, are asking for evidence of fraud committed during the GOP state primary elections. There is a RNC convention in Tampa, Florida on August 27, 2012 and they want as many Ron Paul delegates to vote their conscience and not be held to any “loyalty” oath to Mitt R.



Romney is going down. He won't be available as a candidate at the Republican convention end of August. He will have to appear in court instead. This means Paul will win the nomination!

The narrator in the video mentions that 'by chance' the case has been assigned to one of the strictest judges in the country who cannot be intimidated. I see this as another case of Divine Intervention.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu Involved in Smuggling Nuclear Triggers Out of The U.S.

Netanyahu involved in smuggling nuke triggers: Report

According to a Wednesday article posted on antiwar.com, the FBI partially declassified and released additional pages from a 1985-2002 investigation into how a network of front companies connected to the Israeli Ministry for Military Affairs illegally smuggled triggers used for nuclear weapons (krytrons) out of the United States.
The FBI investigation reveals that Netanyahu worked at Heli Trading Company, the Israeli node of the network during the smuggling operations.
The Israeli premier was in contact with Richard Kelly Smyth, who at the time was president of the MILCO International Inc., a front company for the Israel-based Heli Trading Company, then owned by Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan.
In April 2002, Smyth was sentenced to 40 months in prison and fined 20,000 dollars for trafficking krytrons, tiny electronic devices that are used in high-speed photography, strobe lighting and photocopying machines, but can also be used in nuclear triggers.
Smyth was also indicted for selling about 800 krytrons to Heli Trading Company (also known as Milchan Limited).
“Smyth and [Netanyahu] would meet in restaurants in Tel Aviv and in [Netanyahu’s] home and/or business,” the FBI report said.
In March, the co-authors of the book Confidential: The Life of Secret Agent Turned Hollywood Tycoon Arnon Milchan issued a statement saying, “Hollywood mega-producer and former secret agent Arnon Milchan has been asked directly by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres to avoid any public discussion of the book Confidential, asserting that the matter is too sensitive at this time.”

JPMorgan Complicit In Vatican Bank Money-Laundering

Date: Saturday, 7-Jul-2012 09:47:56


The Council of Europe presented a preliminary report in Strasbourg Wednesday on massive money-laundering by the Vatican. As JP Morgan was the Vatican’s chief bank until the scandal broke, The Morgue may soon have a much bigger scandal and PR nightmare on its hands than a simply $9 billion derivatives loss.
‘It is clear that JPMorgan is complicit in money-laundering in Europe with the Vatican, having abetted Vatican bank money-laundering and fraud by allowing IRS-defined suspicious transactions pass through their institution.

It's time to clean house – from top to bottom!

Subject: The Washington politicians will sign the Obamacare Repeal Pledge – or, we'll make them wish they had!

ravf-head-2.jpg
If you'll sign the Repeal Obamacare Now! petition, I'll make sure the politicians in Washington sign the Obamacare Repeal Pledge – or, together, we'll make sure they'll wish they had!
obamacare_hearse-480.jpg
That's my promise to you!

Dear Fellow Patriot,
I know you are as outraged as I am by events over the past week – so let me spell it out for you:
It's time to clean house – from top to bottom!
The Washington political elite have totally disregarded the express will of the American people to stage a hostile takeover of our health care system. And, it’s time to tell them – in no uncertain terms – to defund, de-authorize, and REPEAL it. Now!
In short, it’s time they get the message that if we have to pay a “fee” – they're going to pay a price.
Their magic numbers for us are $17 billion in new, unfunded entitlement programs – and $500 billion in soaring taxes – over the next ten years.
So, here, now, are our “Magic Numbers” for them:
100 - 435
In other words, if you and I are going to get rid of Obamacare – and, trust me, we are the only fool-proof, fail-safe way to get it done, once and for all, is to serve notice on:
  • All 100 Members of the US Senate, and
  • All 435 Members of the House of Representatives ...
... that the time has come to pay the piper!
We need to tell them – in no uncertain terms – that either they vote to repeal Obamacare now.
Or we will lead the charge to have the American people vote to repeal them on November 6, 2012.
Then, on the bright, sunny morning of November 7, 2012, we will finally have a veto-proof majority in US Senate … a veto-proof majority in the House of Representatives – and a scared straight political elite that finally gets the message that the tide has turned in Washington ..
... because the American people turned them out!
Frankly, that's what it is going to take to make sure that the monstrosity of Obamacare is buried so deep in the trash heap of history that even the Supreme Court with all of its bizarre somersaults can't dig it out again. And I need your help to do it.
So, here is what I am asking you to join me in doing now:
1. Sign the Restore America's Voice Repeal Obamacare Now! petition and get it back to me immediately. Your signature on that petition will serve notice on every member of the US Congress that the American people are fed up – and we're not taking anymore excuses, delays, or outright lies!
2. Once I have your petition, Restore America’s Voice will join with other key groups like Obamacare Repeal Pledge – and together, we will add millions of other citizens voices to yours in a round-the-clock, non-stop campaign to compel members of Congress and  candidates to sign the following ironclad Repeal Pledge – with no room to weasel out:

The Obamacare Repeal Pledge
 
I pledge to vote for all bills which seek to REPEAL the health care bill, H.R. 3590, signed into law on March 23, 2010.
To that end, I do now pledge to endorse and vote for all measures, including discharge petitions, leading to its defunding, deauthorization, and repeal.
I shall do so whether those measures are taken for the whole of the bill or those component parts that impose mandates, restrict patient and doctor choices and access, violate individual freedom and privacy, reduce healthy competition, increase costs, or raise taxes.

----------------------------------------------------
[Name of Congress member or Candidate]

That's it. Plain and simple. No weasel words. And absolutely no room for the politicians of either party to weasel out.
They either sign the Restore America's Voice Obamacare Repeal Pledge by the stroke of midnight September 30, 2012 –
or beginning on Monday, October 1, 2012, you and I  launch a full-scale TV, radio, newspaper, and online campaign informing voters nationwide that their member of Congress has sold them out. Again.
Let's face it, we've had enough of Washington politicians, Democrats and Republicans alike, giving us lip service – while lying through their teeth.
We've had enough empty promises and political posturing.
We want action. We want it now. And we're through taking “Wait,” “Soon,” or “Someday” for an answer!
So, please, sign your Repeal Obamacare Now! petition and get it back to me immediately. I promise to put it on the politicians' desk – front and center – within the next two weeks.
And, then, we'll both watch the fireworks begin!
Please don't delay. I'm looking forward to hearing from you today.

Sincerely,
ken hoagland signature.png 
Ken Hoagland
President
Restore America’s Voice

PS: Barack Obama has spoken. Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi have spoken. John Roberts has spoken. And now it's your turn to speak. Loud and clear. In no uncertain terms. 
So, at Restore America's Voice, we're not giving the Washington politicians once more inch of wiggle room. Once you sign your Repeal Obamacare Now! petition, we're giving them an exact time and date to sign their Obamacare Repeal Pledge.
With your record-setting 2.6 million Restore America's Voice petitions last year, you told the politicians absolutely and unequivocally that you did not want the monstrosity of Obamacare. But, they wouldn't take “No” for an answer. So, now, neither are we!
Please sign your Repeal Obamacare Now! petition now, and send it back to me immediately. And with your petition, please send as large a contribution as you can to keep this vital campaign going. Your gift of $25, $50, $100 – or more – can help assure that every member of Congress either signs the Obamacare Repeal Pledge – or pays a price for betraying the trust of his or her own voters!
Please act now. It is time to re-declare our independence!

Congress and the Administration disregarded the clear will of the people in enacting the government takeover of our medical care; we must de-authorize, de-fund, and REPEAL it.

MG Vallely meets with Syrian Opposition Leaders

EXCLUSIVE

By Scott W. Winchell
Does anyone really know what is going on in Syria? Who are the combatants? Who is supporting the regime, both internally and externally? Who is supporting the opponents of the regime of Bashar al-Assad? Where is aid actually going and why?
With so much conflicting information, it’s very hard for anyone, including our own intelligence and diplomatic services to understand the composition of the ‘freedom fighters’, their needs, and the forces they face, internally and externally.
MG Paul E. Vallely, US Army (Ret.)
One thing we do know, there are parties here in the US and in other capitols that have the ear of the administrations and have vested interests in the region. However, these are not the interests of the people on the ground actually fighting.
The Syrian National Council (SNC) has a PR firm working for them, but not for the true freedom fighters. A man named Ausma Monajed speaks and lobbies for the SNC, but who lobbies for the people on the ground?
Due to the fact that these questions, ones the State Department, the White House, the Armed Services Committee, and others cannot or will not answer, MG Paul E. Vallely, US Army (ret.) and his team accepted an invitation to go on a fact finding mission to the region to see this first hand, and they just returned on Friday, June 30.
With the team’s long and robust relationship in the Middle East, they met with key leaders of Syrian opposition forces at the border of Turkey and Syria, and toured the area.
SUA was able to glean much information on the Syrian struggle from the team, including the political situation in Turkey and in the entire region. It is with this type of information that SUA ensures that policy makers listen, they will prevent taking the wrong path diplomatically, and committing the same mistakes seen in Libya and Egypt.
It is also apparent now, that the opposition forces certainly have a voice now, heretofore deprived of them in the halls of power. That voice is MG Vallely.
MG Vallely staying cool near the border in Hatay Province
The trip was arranged by the Syrian Revolution.
They asked the General to accompany them to Turkey to see and hear firsthand, to meet with those without voices, and to offer guidance in achieving aid for the people.
Once in Antakya, Turkey they were interviewed by Turkish, and other regional media outlets as the first private team to come to the region to research and evaluate the situation inside Syria. They also visited a refugee camp in Hatay Province near Antakya.
A tour was arranged to bring the team to the border (See Video #1) to talk with the leaders of the freedom fighters and determine what they needed, and what the facts were regarding the struggle; to learn just who is who inside the opposition forces.
Now they are trusted friends.
Leaders from Homs and Idlib came across the border that day specifically to meet the General and his team at their own peril. There were also leaders from other locations inside the battle zones of Syria among the more than 40 leaders who attended, including the Mayor.
These leaders were predominantly from the Syrian Liberation Army (SLA) and the Free Syrian Army (FSA). There is a distinction, one the world seems to overlook. SUA asks why? More on this later.
Initially, they openly expressed amazement that this man, a retired general would risk so much to come and see them; to listen to them, as a private citizen of the USA. They were very adamant about this point because he was the first private American to come see them, and they expressed a great distrust of Americans prior.
They were quickly endeared and ready to talk for hours, and they did. A meeting area was set up, and Vallely and Qdemati answered their questions and spoke of what most of America thinks. They also listened, a new thing for these leaders: to be listened too. (See Video #2 below)
They described their plight and their plans for an emerging Syria, one without Assad and his thugs in charge any longer. They also described that the Sunnis are united, and al Qaeda is not helping them. They know there is much misinformation out in the public, and they are incensed that their message is not being heard, or even cultivated. It is also clear to them, that others are getting credit for their deeds, yet they get no help. They know they do not have those kinds of connections in DC and the UN.
Nagi Najjar, MG Vallely, Sam Qdemati dine at a safe house on the border with Syrian opposition leadership
They do know at this time though; that they must work together for the time being to erase the current regime, then tackle their permanent future despite their differences.
They are deeply saddened, that no one is consulting them about their future, as if they are children in need of direction from other world leaders and the UN. The world is ignoring the 20 million Sunnis of Syria. Kofi Annan is not respected, nor liked. They distrust the UN and its leadership.
The Sunnis described the carnage and attacks as an attempt at ‘ethnic cleansing’ mainly in the Lattakia province in the Kurdish mountains where the regime forces are clearing 12 Sunni villages. They are systematically being expunged from their ancestral homes in a most heinous fashion by Shiites and their allies (Including Alawites who are Shiia).
They explained that soon, when times of last resort arrive, they know chemical weapons will be used and they know where they are. The problem is, they possess almost no defensive equipment for such an eventuality, and are woefully deficient in medicines, food, and other logistics just to survive.
They described a need for securing pathways for humanitarian aid to be provided along the Turkish border. To this end, MG Vallely gave them a tactical plan on how to establish and secure these pathways with the aid of the Turks and other supporters.
They asked Vallely to spread the word, to be their voice in America. A confidence and trust developed, one that opened a line of communication, and the dialogue now continues. Vallely pledged to continue to spread their voice, now for world leaders to actually listen.
In addition to the insight on Syria, MG Vallely and his team evaluated the political climate in Turkey as well. They spoke with the common people in their homes. What they heard was not a surprise, but it validated previous inquiries.
MG Vallely has constituted a detailed report and pledged to bring their voices to leadership in the US, to offset that of the powerful Middle Eastern interests, like those who have worked for, and have the ear of the White House. More on this to follow as well.

Army Manual Outlines Plan To Kill Rioters, Demonstrators In America

Army Manual Outlines Plan To Kill Rioters, Demonstrators In America

“Warning shots will not be fired”
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Friday, July 6, 2012
A newly leaked US Army Military Police training manual for “Civil Disturbance Operations” outlines how military assets are to be used domestically to quell riots, confiscate firearms and even kill Americans on U.S. soil during mass civil unrest.
Army Manual Outlines Plan To Kill Rioters, Demonstrators In America New Orleans Katrina military police patrol Canal St. 090505 by AP
The document (PDF), which is dated 2006 and was used for a self-learning course at the U.S. Army Military Police School at Fort McClellan, makes it clear that the operations described in the manual apply to both “CONUS and OCONUS,” meaning inside the Continental United States and outside the Continental United States.
The document outlines how military assets will be used to “help local and state authorities to restore and maintain law and order” in the event of mass riots, civil unrest or a declaration of martial law.
The primary function of military assets will be focused around, “breaking up unauthorized gatherings and by patrolling the disturbance area to prevent the commission of lawless acts,” states the document, adding, “during operations to restore order, military forces may present a show of force, establish roadblocks, break up crowds, employ crowd control agents, patrol, serve as security forces or reserves, and perform other operations as required.”
The manual also describes how prisoners will be processed through temporary internment camps under the guidance of U.S. Army FM 3-19.40 Internment/Resettlement Operations, which as we reported earlier this year, outlines how internees would be “re-educated” into developing an “appreciation of U.S. policies” while detained in prison camps inside the United States.
On page 20 of the manual, rules regarding the use of “deadly force” in confronting “dissidents” are made disturbingly clear with the directive that a, “Warning shot will not be fired.”
The manual includes lists of weapons to be used against “rioters” or “demonstrators,” including “antiriot grenades.” It also advises troops to carry their guns in the “safe port arms” stance, a psychological tactic aimed at “making a show of force before rioters.” Non-lethal weapons and water cannons are also included.
The document also explains how the military will be involved in spying on and gathering information on dissidents to identify the, “Existence of persons, groups, or organizations which have distinctively threatened or are creating disturbances.”
“Crowd control agents” will also be deployed for the purpose of “reducing resistance,” states the manual, which also implies that troops will be used to confiscate firearms.
“Restrictions on the sale, transfer, and possession of sensitive material such as gasoline, firearms, ammunition, and explosives will help control forces in minimizing certain forms of violence,” states the document on page 40.
“Consideration may be given to evacuating sensitive items, such as weapons from stores,” the manual also states on page 27.
The document emphasizes how troops should make every effort, “to avoid appearing as an alien invading force and to present the image of a restrained and well-disciplined force whose sole purpose is to help to restore law and order with a minimum loss of life and property.”
This 115 page manual represents a shocking new insight into how the U.S. military will be used domestically to violently quell unrest in the aftermath of a total economic collapse or other national emergency.
Preparations for using troops to deal with mass civil unrest on U.S. soil have been in the works for years.
Back in 2008, U.S. troops returning from Iraq were earmarked for “homeland patrols” with one of their roles including helping with “civil unrest and crowd control”.
In December 2008, the Washington Post reported on plans to station 20,000 more U.S. troops inside America for purposes of “domestic security” from September 2011 onwards, an expansion of Northcom’s militarization of the country in preparation for potential civil unrest following a total economic collapse or a mass terror attack.
A report produced that same year by the U.S. Army War College’s Strategic Institute warned that the United States may experience massive civil unrest in the wake of a series of crises which it termed “strategic shock.”
“Widespread civil violence inside the United States would force the defense establishment to reorient priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order and human security,” stated the report, authored by [Ret.] Lt. Col. Nathan Freir, adding that the military may be needed to quell “purposeful domestic resistance”.
Rex 84, short for Readiness Exercise 1984, was established under the pretext of a “mass exodus” of illegal aliens crossing the Mexican/US border.
During the Iran-Contra hearings in 1987, however, it was revealed that the program was a secretive “scenario and drill” developed by the federal government to suspend the Constitution, declare martial law, assign military commanders to take over state and local governments, and detain large numbers of American citizens determined by the government to be “national security threats.”
With many Americans now becoming “pre-revolutionary” as a result of their fury at the Obama administration and equally unpopular lawmakers in Washington, potential civil unrest could spring not just from a poverty-stricken underclass, but also the shrinking middle class.
Perhaps that’s why the Department of Homeland Security is increasingly focusing its anti-terror apparatus on white middle class Americans, portraying them as domestic terrorists in a series of PSA videos. In addition, ‘Occupy’ protesters are also now being characterized as terrorists.

Kansas Passes New Law Consistent With The U.S. Constitution Banning Sharia Law.

Leave a Comment Posted by Volubrjotr on July 7, 2012


Women can drive in Kansas. The stoning of adulterers is not condoned, nor is removal of the right hand of thieves.
Yet the Kansas Legislature overwhelmingly passed and Gov. Sam Brownback recently signed a ban against state courts or agencies making any ruling based on foreign laws — read, Shariah.
The word Shariah means “path,” and in many parts of this country it is leading not to the least, but the most, resistance.


·         Congressman Calls For Purging Military Of Muslims: Taqiyya Part Of Islam’s Doctrine.

“Many people use the word Shariah and don’t know what it means,” said Jacquelene Brinton, an Islamic specialist in religious studies at the University of Kansas. “They don’t know what they are banning. They are going by the extreme examples in some other countries.”

Islam

Such cases, from beheadings of murderers in Saudi Arabia to family “honor” killings of women in Pakistan, attract censure from the West, but they tend to spring from specific cultures.
Shariah is a complex system for regulating the conduct of devout Muslims. Shaped by history and regional customs, codes and religious texts, it is more flexible than Westerners might believe, tempered by modernism, and of course, a nation’s laws.

“American Muslims are not trying to replace the U.S. Constitution with Islamic Shariah,” said Riyaz M. Lareef, director of Outreach for Islamic Circle of North America-Kansas City. “American Muslims want to have the liberty and freedom like other religious groups — such as Jews and Catholics — to follow Islamic religious principles in personal lives and private contracts.
“These rights include praying, fasting, giving to charity, building places of worship, being honest, being generous, wearing Islamic clothing, marriage, inheritance and business transactions.”

A bill passed in Tennessee, however, contends Shariah would promote “the destruction of the national existence of the United States.” Newt Gingrich, failed contender for the Republican nomination, called it “a mortal threat to the survival of freedom in the United States and in the world as we know it.”
The Center for Security Policy in Washington, D.C., warns that it “oppresses women’s liberties and human rights, denying them their unalienable rights of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.”

Such views are Islamophobic, others argue, and are driving a wedge between most Americans and a fast-growing minority.
Kansas is just one of more than a dozen states, generally the “red” ones on the political color spectrum, where some fear encroachment of Islamist influence. Oklahoma led the way with a constitutional amendment that specifically referred to Shariah, but it was tossed out as discriminatory by federal courts.

Kansas law says courts, administrative agencies or state tribunals cannot base rulings on any foreign law or legal system that would not grant the parties the same rights guaranteed by state and U.S. constitutions. The term Shariah is nowhere to be found.

Shungopavi Hopi website: http://www.traditionalhopi.org

For the first time in history the Traditional Hopi Elders from the Village to Shungopavi (the Mother Village) are stepping forward to speak to the public. They have a warning for the world. They say they have been told this time would come when the water would be taken from them. If this happens it will have an effect on the whole world as they are the microcosm of the world, of the universe.

Now is the time that the True Hopi have been waiting for. It is in this lifetime they see the unfolding of Prophecies of their Ancestors and have been given instructions to not allow these things to happen. This is why they are speaking to us, to warn us, that if the water is taken from Hopi it will have a devastating effect on the planet.

Join with the True Traditional Hopi in stopping the further destruction of the waters around the world.

Support stopping SB2109 and support the fresh waters in your area and together with a world community we can and we will save the future waterways for generations to come.

Taxpayers strike it rich? - Foster Gamble
As cities and states struggle to balance their budgets, folks everywhere are losing their jobs, parks are closing and people most in need are getting left in the dust. As Foster describes in this video blog, it doesn't have to be this way. Trillions of dollars of taxpayer money is currently sitting in unpublicized government investment funds and people are organizing to get it back.
