History: Kristallnacht – German pogrom of 1938
Tonight it is 70 years ago, that in the night of November 9th synagogues, Jewish shops and houses were destroyed throughout Germany and Austria. Almost a thousand Jews were murdered that night and 20-30,000 deported to concentration camps.
Sadly these days it looks like the extreme right wing thugs are creeping into society across Europe again. Where do you think that substantial amounts from all those Billions disappearing from military and so-called humanitarian aid programs are ending up?
This time it might not be the Jews, but will the majority of people again look to the other side and profit from…

AIG: Execs went on leisure retreat – Taxpayers to foot the 500K bill
If you thought there might be some business ethics coming back to today’s executives in the banking business – think again. Looking at the biggest mess in worldwide finance ever created in mankind’s history and those guys still believe its business as usual. You hear stories of so-called executives that are leaving their sinking ships with severity / separation packages worth hundred of millions of dollars – at the same time their employees are left with nothing and many particularly the younger ones looking into a very gray future.
These are seemingly the signals sent out by the cover up plans hammered through these days by governments around the world – grab as much as you can today – we don’t know if we can sponsor your fat bonuses and pays with taxpayer subsidies in the near future. And don’t be shy – a hundred millions might not be as much tomorrow and you know – you did study economics and understand what happens as a result from these FED and other interventions with regards to inflation – don’t you?
Now one of the best indications what those people think has been provided during the House’s Oversight Committee hearing on AIG today. Just a week after the government agreed to bailout the tumbling AIG with USD 85 Billion of taxpayer money, the executives of AIG went on a leisure break spending almost USD 500K on manicures, massages, luxury dinners and hotel rooms…

Video: Interview – Naomi Wolf – Give Me Liberty
A must see 27 minute interview with Naomi Wolf – with the seemingly relaxing of rule for deploying military troops in the U.S. and other western countries (we just heard the same about Germany today) against their own citizens, we soon will all be terrorist (if not warranted otherwise) and she is warning that martial law is just around the corner.
She is also mentioning that members of congress have been threatened with Martial law if they would not pass the so-called “Bailout” plan.
Also mentioned is the change of oath of the U.S. armed forces that…

Quote of the day: Politics by Fear
We would normally not quote a leading Nazi figurehead, but when this leader said the following lines he was certain that his life will soon end in the Nuremberg Trials and had no interest to palliate one of the fundamental principles of the Nazi reign in Germany 1933-1945.
The Nazis in Germany during that period were the first in recent history that have…

Quote of the day: Racketeering
Due to recent events last week when the US government has put up all government property and the (work of the) next two generations of American citizens as collateral to bail out a few thousand “bad apples” within the financial world, we thought the quote from MajGen. Smedley Butler below might also be a good fit for that.
Those guys in the financial world who now try to make others believe that they did not know the dangers and that they did not know that they were trading worthless paper for money just like before the great depression, have always put their greed, their profiteering and racking in other peoples money above everything and anybody else.
We are not talking about the simple employees who are…
