Stacy Summary: As there has literally zero context provided by MSM to the situation in Korea, I thought you might like to view this segment from an interview from last night’s Democracy Now with historian Bruce Cumings. Note also the introductory clip of Hillary Clinton claiming that ‘international law’ has been broken by North Korea. And also that the ‘tensions’ have conveniently made resistance to the Okinawa military bases futile.

In the second half of the show, Max interviews Dr. Joern Berninger about the European “debt crisis”, when France was “technically bankrupt” on May 7, and about the China bubble debate. **UPDATE** – As Dr. B said, the fate of euro will depend on what China does.

And we also mention the financial terrorist playing cards. In the second half of the show, Max interviews Jim Rickards about naked short selling and overwhelming the specialist system, Wall Street banks undermining Greece and Goldman Sachs as an undeclared national enemy.

And, for those that missed it, ‘belly flop’ is @marietta’s word for ‘tumbles,’ ‘plunges,’ etc . . . all of which are overused at this point.**UPDATE** – Fed rumored to be re-opening CPFF emergency program; info here on CPFF program**UPDATE** – Tags: markets tumble · sell off30 Comments Stacy Summary: More coverage of box office futures . . . “Keiser, unlike [Robert] Oppenheimer, didn’t have access to atomic bombs. His lethal weapon is more the financial kind, and after a long hibernation it has become the root of this year’s biggest controversy in Tinseltown: an exchange on which traders could bet on the performance of movies.” Tags: box office futures · hsx · max keiser · michael burns · robert oppenheimer · slate.com90 Comments Stacy Summary: Clip from tomorrow’s Keiser Report. Tags: goldman sachs · jim rickards · keiser report ·undeclared enemies160 Comments Stacy Summary: Very interesting study. How did the CIA persuade these friendly governments to “Buy American”? A pair of additional analyses in the study provide some answers. First, the researchers find that the boost to imports came from CIA operations that helped to install or maintain U.S.-friendly dictatorships—it seems that the will of the people in democracies was effective in counteracting CIA influence. So U.S. exports didn’t benefit from “softer” interventions like the ones in postwar Japan or failed attempts at regime change, as in Syria, for example. (This may explain why CIA operations so often promoted dictatorships at the expense of democracy, a finding that a subset of the same authors report in a separate study.) Further, the authors report that the CIA-produced increase in U.S. imports is greatest for countries with government-dominated economies. It’s not that dictators were foisting U.S. toasters or microwaves on their people. Rather, U.S. interests were served primarily through the export of American-made power plants, fighter planes, and other government purchases.

I’m not 100% sure this isn’t, in fact, actually Tina Fey or The Onion, but if so, it’s a good one. “I don’t know why the question isn’t asked by the mainstream media and by others if there’s any connection with the contributions made to president Obama and his administration and the support by the oil companies to the administration,” she told Fox News Sunday.

Tags: israel · nuclear weapons · south africa22 Comments As many people now understand, Wall Street is a monopolistic cartel that thrives on putting the rest of the nation and much of the world in debt (article on Wall Street and the Bankruptcy of America) and controlling all money in the system (video: The Rise of Financial Empire). It has structurally lived as a parasite on the United States for a century. It seemed like a symbiotic relationship for a long time, but it is now clear that it took over the host and now has nearly reached the point of killing it. Such a parasitic structure is fundamentally pathological, one could say immoral (article on Usury), and pathological structures naturally attract pathological personalities (article on Wall Street Narcissism). Here’s a recent case study: [Read more →] Tags: damon vrabel · jamie dimon · jpmorgan ·pathology95 Comments Stacy Summary: In my mind, the story of debt ‘crises’ in cities across Europe is really as much a story about fraud as the carbon trading. But however bad it gets, Despite ballooning deficits, European regions and cities can expect the state to bail them it: hence they are not expected to follow counterparts in the US, where municipalities bear all of the financial responsibility.

On a larger scale, it is used for price manipulation, and is the equivalent of counterfeiting. The removal of theuptick rule by the SEC on July 6, 2007, which had been created in 1938 as part of the New Deal regulatory reforms, cleared the way for its more heavy handed uses and control frauds.
