Public credit or bust blogger breaks through in the mainstream media

28/12/2011

Iain Parker who writes for and manages the Public Credit or Bust blog made history! He was both interviewed and invited to write an article in the Taranaki Times which is a Fairfax owned publication.

Here is the link to the interview and here to his article. I urge you to visit Iain’s blog because he has researched and written extensively about both the international and New Zealand financial system and John Key’s place in it.

I want to congratulate Iain with the much deserved recognition of this research and the unexpected appearance in the mainstream media of this much needed information

Unrelenting Global Economic Crisis: A Doomsday View of 2012

27/12/2011

The only things not taken into account in this article is what would happen if Ron Paul (whom I don’t necessarily agree with on his National policies) we’re to win the election if he was allowed to run, or the military constraints stopped the wars from happening which is not entirely impossible seeing as the financial system could come to a screeching halt if the elite loses its tenuous hold over the financial system especially if the Derivatives bubble of some 600 trillion comes crashing down around their ears.

By Prof. James Petras

Introduction

The economic, political and social outlook for 2012 is profoundly negative. The almost universal consensus, even among mainstream orthodox economists is pessimistic regarding the world economy. Although, even here, their predictions understate the scope and depth of the crises, there are powerful reasons to believe that beginning in 2012, we are heading toward a steeper decline than what was experienced during the Great Recession of 2008 – 2009. With fewer resources, greater debt and increasing popular resistance to shouldering the burden of saving the capitalist system, the governments cannot bail out the system.

I’m off for a Holliday break!

23/12/2011

I will have a little break over the next couple of days but I want to leave you with another disturbing trend. It seems it’s now illegal to feed your fellow men.

Ponder that over the next couple of days when you stuff yourselves with all that wonderful food you’re still able to buy for a reasonable price while you sit on your deck overlooking this beautiful country where you can still legally grow your own food and share it with your neighbours, friends and family. And while you ponder this click here and support the protest rising against the food bill which would set the tranny against food self-sufficiency in motion right here in Godsown.

May peace and freedom be with you my friends, brothers and sisters and may we be able to guard all that without it costing our lives.

On the stupidity of the Nutbarnz Troll

21/12/2011

In September you may recall I became aware that someone had started an anti conspiracy website called Conspiracy Nutbars New Zealand or some such. 

The person/s behind the site immediately started to comment under the name of Hepi indicating my site being monitored pretty intensly. After a few comments I decided that Hepi was a waste of space and banned him but not before he helped me find a code error leading to a deformed website. This aid again came so quick he must have either linked to my blog or have it under constant scrutiny. (more…)

National courting Greens

21/12/2011

I never liked Russell and as far as I’m concerned the Greens died when Jeanette left the parliament. Jeanette was the only politician in NZ with the political integrity to look at the events of 9/11 for example.

So it’s no biggie for me but I put it to you that if the Greens sign any type of deal with National they betray everything they have stood for with John Key allowing open cast mining and deep sea drilling.

You simply can not make deals with the devil without selling your soul

Medical Journal Article: 14,000 U.S. Deaths Tied to Fukushima Reactor Disaster Fallout

21/12/2011

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Impact Seen As Roughly Comparable to Radiation-Related Deaths After Chernobyl; Infants Are Hardest Hit, With Continuing Research Showing Even Higher Possible Death Count.

An estimated 14,000 excess deaths in the United States are linked to the radioactive fallout from the disaster at the Fukushima nuclear reactors in Japan, according to a major new article in the December 2011 edition of the International Journal of Health Services. This is the first peer-reviewed study published in a medical journal documenting the health hazards of Fukushima.Authors Joseph Mangano and Janette Sherman note that their estimate of 14,000 excess U.S. deaths in the 14 weeks after the Fukushima meltdowns is comparable to the 16,500 excess deaths in the 17 weeks after the Chernobyl meltdown in 1986.

U.S. Income Inequality Higher Than Roman Empire’s Levels: Study

21/12/2011

Food for thought! The French had a very simple and efficient solution for this problem!

For example; The six Wall mart heirs are worth the same as the bottom 30%. That is money stolen from all those mom and pop shops they pushed out of the market, the family farmers they killed off with huge machined industrial farms and the third world farmers they exploited and abused.

Charter School Industry Running Amok in Florida with Taxpayer Dollars

20/12/2011

Another corporate scam in the making. John Key anyone?

As is often the case with huge economic and social experiments that severely rip apart the fabric of the nation’s social safety net while benefitting huge corporations, management companies, public relations flacks, and providing a perpetual glint in the eyes of right-wing foundation heads and the data manipulators at conservative think tanks, there is rarely oversight, scrutiny or accountability attached to these projects.

Huge companies found pots of taxpayer dollars after the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act of 1996 (Welfare Reform/privatization) was signed into law by President Bill Clinton. President Bush’s faith-based initiative, based on the assumption that the private sector and religious charities could replace many government programs, wound up providing seed money for a number right-wing religious organizations.

Update: Oh oops, Bank of America just crashed through the $4 mark and is dragging the entire market with them to the tune of tens of billions of dollars!!!

Bank of America where John Key holds most of his paper wealth is one of the banks who played a huge role in kicking millions of American out of their homes event though they did not hold the Mortgage deed to these properties and in fact they also kicked people out of their homes who did not owe anything on their homes making them the most hated bank in the US.

Kim Yong Il and the rumours surrounding his death

20/12/2011

A prominent North Korean defector and a South Korean politician are contradicting reports that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Il died of a heart attack, pointing to rumors that he was assassinated as result of an internal power struggle between the ruling Communist Workers’ Party and the country’s military.

Defector: Rumors Circulating Kim Jong Il Was Assassinated large

“A rumor is circulating that earlier a high-ranking North Korean official was shot dead. This has yet to be confirmed, but such talk is evidence that discontent was brewing among some people in the North,” political scientist An Chan-il told the Korea Times.

Manufacturing Consent: Iran helped the 9/11 hijackers!

20/12/2011

In America a judge has ruled that Iran and its religious leaders were complicit in the 9/11 attacks. The court case started by some widows of people who died on that day took their case to court and without anybody representing Iran and without any convincing evidence the judge condemned the Iranian nation. 

Now if you still believe that 19 you Arabs with box cutters could explode three buildings with two planes after flying around for an hour in the most protected airspace in the world then I’m sure you will be gullible enough to believe this latest propaganda crap too but for you sake I hope you wake up fast enough because if the US attacks Iran we are in for a world of hurt, the least if which will be $ 10 a litre oil prices!

High on NZ’s military wishlist: the Drone!

20/12/2011

In 2009 A report came out stating that the NZ military was salivating at the thought of having some drones to guard our national waters!

I pointed out that these hellish machines would be equally handy to spy on the population.

Here we are at the end of 2011 and I thought I’d give you an update as to how far Drones have come:

  • Drones are used against the Palestinians by Israel.
  • Drones are now operational in the US and some of them are equipped to taser people from above.
  • While the US declared an end to the war US drones will have access to Iraqi airspace.
  • In Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen drone attacks have killed many people and it has been used to kill American citizens suspected of “terrorist” activities.
  • Iran just downed (intact) a drone used to spy on Iran while flying above it’s sovereign ground which is a violation of international war.
  • On December 8th a sherrif in Lakota USA used two unarmed Predators to pinpoint and arrest three people involved in a dispute over 6 cows.
  • The US military industrial complex now wants to start selling these machines to all and sundry.

A new 9/11 Eyewitness Evidence of Bombs at WTC

20/12/2011

Luke Rudowski interviews a new Eyewitness on explosions on floors much lower then where the planes had hit the buildings.

It is also a shocking indictment against the EPA with as a result thousands of New Yorkers dying of toxic dust in their lungs. 

Iran, a Drone and Obama, what the hell just went down?

18/12/2011

The easy answer of course is that a Drone went down in Iran but why and how did this come about?

The fact is that Iran was able to land a drone which officially did not even exist because it was so advanced.

They did not shoot it out of the sky, it was supposed to be invisible to radar and it was flying at 50.000 feet. Yet the Iranian defence forces where able to overpower the steering mechanisms and land it without damaging it. (more…)

IAG Australia has bought the solvent bits of AMI Insurance while you are going to pay for the bad bits

18/12/2011

Update: The deal was the result of the AMI, IAG and the Crown negotiating with each other and the Government taking the claims over. What is the distinction between the two and why was this distinction described in the newspaper?

Was that because the Reserve Bank was involved in the negotiations and if so was there a huge conflict of interest with one of the members of the board?

I would be very interested in hearing your opinions about this?

This week the first of the New Zealand bailouts came to pass. IAG Australia bought the still functioning bits of AMI Insurance while you, the tax payer, where dumped with a $ 1.8 billion in bad bits.

That is what it means if the “Government” promises to pay out claims for an insurance company.

A noble lie: the Oklahoma bombing 1995

18/12/2011

This is an interview from Alex Jones with James Lane and Chris Emery who made the film A noble lie Oklahoma 2995 about the events in Oklahoma when it was alleged that Timothy McVey and Terry Nichols blew up the Murrah building. In the aftermath of this event the first anti Terrorist laws were implemented. This doco is the result of 10 years of intensive research about what really happened and I hope to be able to link to the actual film when it appears online.

Libya on the verge of chaos and civil war – experts

14/12/2011

Duh!

Warnings from many experts are coming true: Libya is being pulled into a civil war. Now anti-Gaddafists are carving up power and Libya’s capital of Tripoli is already seeing clashes as the rebels are fighting for the local airport.

Libya that was united by one goal – to topple Gaddafi, is now on the verge of chaos. Late Saturday, the so-called Libya’s national guards attempted to seize control over the Tripoli airport and attacked their former allies from the city of Zintan. Their attempt failed but left some people killed and injured. The national guards pledged to try again and were calmed down only by the tribal elders.

At the same time, militants attempted to murder Libya’s Chief Commander Khalifa Haftar.

Liege, Gladio and Pedophilia: The bizarre, dark and dangerous in Belgium Politics

14/12/2011

Belgium is a strange place. It houses Brussels and the center of power in Europe but can’t manage to form a government of it’s own due to the fact that the Flemish (Dutch speaking and the Wallons (French speaking) can’t stand each other. It is also a place where power and perversion meet, gangsters terrorize the population and Pedophilia meets the powers that be.

Here is blogger Aangirfan’s take on the horrific attacks in Liege:

GLADIO STYLE ATTACK IN LIEGE

On 13 December 2011, several gunmen opened fire in the centre of the Belgian city of Liege.

Several people were killed and many were wounded.

The dead included teenage boys aged 15 and 17, and a 75-year-old woman.

Reports said that at least three men carried out the attack.

The Euro collapse, FEMA camps and China’s and Indian’s demise it’s all coming to pass as I write this

13/12/2011

When I scour the Internet for News and items I think New Zealanders should know I often think of a man whom while we fell out over my apparent disrespect for ANZAC day I still think of as a friend. I will refer to him as A as I want to protect his privacy. 

A is a Waikato dairy farmer and a staunch John Key supporter. I suspect he still sometimes visits this blog and my facebook wall because his names shows up on my wall as someone I might want to befriend and other than that he is a FB member has no posts and no photo on his wall in an apparent need for anonymity.

When we were still in contact we often had robust discussions about what John key would do to this country and how he was connected to the banking world and thus entirely suspect. This was about four years ago. A. Voted for John Key and told me he would see us right. (more…)

A letter from a Jewish voice for Peace

13/12/2011

I subscribe to a news letter from a group which calls themselves a Jewish voice for Peace. They are activists who want to make peace with the People of Palestine and I support their goal. This letter touched my heart and i thought I’d share it with you because it is important that we support those in Israel and around the world who do want to reach out to their Muslim brethren and sisters and try to heal the damage the illegal state of Israel and its inherent anti-Semitism has caused:

Dear Evelien,

Sometimes I dread this time of year. It’s dark. It’s cold. The commercials and ads imploring us to buy, buy, buy. The massive consumption. All of it overwhelming; none of it uplifting.

It’s also a bit of a metaphor for the time we’re living in. It sometimes seems that the immense, violent, and hateful forces we fight every day could swallow us up in a wave of darkness.

And then… I remember. There is light. Everywhere! Inside each of us. We are the light. We carry it with us, without knowing when we’ll have a chance to be the light for others. And, wonderfully, beautifully, sometimes, when it’s most unexpected, we find light in someone else.

I am Alissa Wise. Rabbi, organizer, educator, and anti-racist activist. This Chanukah season, I am honoring the light in my life: my cousin, Nava.

Nava and I didn’t meet until 2004. But our history goes way, way back. Our grandfathers were brothers—their father, Abraham Benjamin Wise, came to America through the benevolence of Herschel Manischewitz (yes, that Manischewitz!). The family that connects us settled in Palestine in 1809—part of the Nahalat Shiva, the seven Jewish families that first settled outside the walls of the Old City in Jerusalem.

To say that our family, our ancestors, are proud of their Zionist past is a huge understatement.
So, it is not a surprise that as I became ever more aware of the horrific injustices in Palestine and began expressing my Judaism by evolving, acting, and shining my light on what was happening, many in my family responded with resistance and denial, even as others were on the path with me. Family gatherings, which had been so full of love and light in my youth, increasingly became a source of conflict and sadness.

So, I began to believe that to do the work that felt the most authentic to me, I would be at odds with my family. With that thinking, I may never have found Nava.

Nava and I had a lot in common. I went to the same rabbinical school that some of Nava’s parents graduated from. She and I were even both in Jerusalem in 1999, where—unknown to one another—we were both experiencing a consciousness shift and becoming Palestinian solidarity activists.

But we never met—I was too accustomed to family members being hostile. Why ask for more?

Finally, in 2004, we met in Brooklyn. We were brought together by a gathering of Jewish Palestine solidarity activists. We immediately were smitten with each other, truly illuminated by the miracle of light that led us to each other (or at least that’s how it felt!).

Really, we couldn’t be more different. Me, a rabbi. Nava, secular and sarcastic. Both of us, though, lit and guided by our heritage. By our Judaism. Our Judaism defines our life cycle events, food, language, history, and (now) our activism.

Nava didn’t set out to be my light. But, oh, she is. To be both friends and family in this work is a privilege, a source of light I now can’t imagine being without. There she is, bright and loud and shining for me and everyone else to see. And for that, for her, I am grateful.

Nava, this is for you. I made a donation to my own employer, Jewish Voice for Peace, to honor your light. Evelien, join me! Honor the light in your life by supporting JVP—with your gift of any amount— and we’ll send your honoree a note letting them know.

Thank you, so much, for reading and for all you do. Go forth and be light!
Happy holidays,

Rabbi Alissa Wise, Director of Campaigns
Jewish Voice for Peace

A noble lie!

12/12/2011

According to the Greeks a noble lie was a lie told by the ruling elite to harmonize the existing social structure or to protect their place in that structure.

The Oklahoma City bombing was a terrorist bomb attack on the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995. The official story was that two madman angry for the massacre of Waco where a militant Christian cult was attacked by the Feds and massacred  had build a huge bomb with fertilizer and other chemicals in a van and had parked the van in front of the Alfred P Murrah federal building and had brought it to explosion damaging the building extensively. It killed 168 people amongst which several young children in a day care centre. Timothey McVey and Terry Nichols perpetrated the act and they were executed for their crime.

The problem is that there are so many holes in the official story and so many contradictions and deaths and neglected testimonies of people directly involved in the event that it is more than likely that this official story like the 911 story may have to be binned and another real investigation may have to take place to establish what really happened.

Here is the trailer of a new documentary which I hope to be able to link to soon:
