Hiding evidence about particular air disasters is old hat to certain thugs in positions of power and influence. If an airliner has to be destroyed vto further their sick vand twisted agendas those types of indiduals have no problem ordering the “hit” and “hiding” the evidence that would reveal their murderous fingerprints.

That is a Really amazing article. The Russians aren’t going to have to worry too much about the Gang Who Could Only Shoot Their Own Feet Straight.
And now Obama and Jamie Demon have arranged to confiscate customer bank accounts to cover their asses.
This is Really amazing, and Really disastrous news for the West.
Even if this lethal weapon is dodged somehow, they’ll be back again. The bank accounts of ordinary people are now cannon fodder in the battle of the Criminally Incompetent in Action to keep the roulette turning.
And these guys think they’re going to rule the world.

I hadn’t fully assimilated the article myself at that point, and thought I’d throw in a few more links to back-up the discussion.
With all the volatility on Wall St. of late, and ongoing financial manipulation, it can tough to sort out what’s going on. Disinfo about Russ. econ. from MSM no help either.
Whitney also underscores the considerable risks to other econs. & sectors (like US shale drillers) that Wash. courts with this strategy. That was the scary bit, this ongoing gambling is terribly disquieting as DC continues to do stupid stuff worldwide.
I ask only for rhetorical effect — Why is it that when Barry Choom shows resolve, it’s never for the principles he campaigned on, but for some elite pipe dream?
Max Keiser is invaluable (though I discount his gold-buggery and Bitcoin promotion). For some reason, I’ve missed his last few broadcasts, and I usually can’t sit through non-music videos on the computer for some reason. Did he go off on the banksters? He’s at his best then.
Various of the items I ref’d. above talk about the stimulative effects of import substitution on the Russian econ. Putin spoke about the need to diversify from oil. Numerous observers have urged this, and the sanctions are a good prompt to speed up the move.
I’ve long thought the evolution of the UK econ. was a leading indicator for change in the Am. one. England began de-industrialization in the years after WWII, though of course with an acceleration in the Thatcher years. US only after Oil Shock in the 70’s, with Reagan, with recent acceleration of “outsourcing” and “off-shoring”. Wall St. is following the City.

@201 Banks, mutual funds, oil companies, North Sea drillers, Alberta oilsands, shalefields in Texas……they are all feeling the pinch. Makes me think the Saudis will soon be ‘asked’ to cut production.
