Boston Bombing Conspiracy - The Saudi Connection - Insanemedia

Boston Bombing Conspiracy - The Saudi Connection - Insanemedia

Glenn Beck: Documents were brought to our attention at TheBlaze, and those documents indicate that this guy is scheduled for deportation next Tuesday due to issues related to national security. The document goes on to say that the individual is linked to the Boston bombing. That’s what the federal document says.

This is the same person that we were initially told was a person of interest. This was the Saudi national in the hospital. His apartment was in Revere, Massachusetts. It was raided. The items were removed. And then we were told he was just a possible witness. And then we were finally told by the authorities he had nothing to do with the attack in fact he wasn’t a witness to the crime. Why was he in the hospital? How did he get to the ground zero? What was he doing there? He wasn’t even a witness? Really?

This guy who wasn’t a witness is suddenly being deported next Tuesday, whisked off our continent to go back to Saudi Arabia, and he wasn’t even a witness – yet the documents he’s being deported voluntarily on terror charges linked to the Boston bombing.

Who is Abdulrahman Ali Al-Harbi?

According to the Global Dispatch, Abdul Rahman Ali Al-Harbi, “Person Of Interest” in the Boston Marathon Bombing has 6 Saudi ‘Terrorists’ in his family, 5 of those are in Gitmo.
There were “rumors” of President Obama meeting with Saudi officials in the hospital just prior to his “approved deportation.” More notable is the assertions that Abdul Rahman Ali Al-Harbi is clear of any terrorist ties, when in fact over 10 names from his clan are already linked to Al-Qaeda!
Many members from the Al-Harbi’s clan are involved in terrorism and are members of Al-Qaeda as identified by Islamic governments. In a list of 85 terrorists released by the Saudi government, several members of the Al-Harbi family seem to have been active fighters in Al-Qaeda:
#15 Badr Saud Uwaid Al-Awufi Al-Harbi
#73 Muhammad Atiq Uwaid Al-Awufi Al-Harbi
#26 Khalid Salim Uwaid Al-Lahibi Al-Harbi
#29 Raed Abdullah Salem Al-Thahiri Al-Harbi
#43 Abdullah Abdul Rahman Muhammad Al-Harbi (leader)
#60 Fayez Ghuneim Humeid Al-Hijri Al-Harbi
Then you have Al-Harbi clan members in Gitmo:
Salim Salman Awadallah Al-Sai’di Al-Harbi
Majid Abdullah Hussein Al-Harbi
Muhammad Abdullah Saqr Al-Alawi Al-Harbi
Ghanem Abdul Rahman Ghanem Al-Harbi
Muhammad Atiq Uwaid Al-Awfi Al-Harbi
In the night of the Boston Bombing, the media reported that an apartment belonging to a Saudi National, Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi, in Revere Mass, was searched by the FBI and Law enforcement. Abdul Alharbi was in the U.S. on a student visa.

Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi lived in Revere, Mass (Boston suburb) in an apartment on the 5th floor. #503 – The next morning, TheNewsWire reported:
Kerry meeting with Saudi Foreign Minister abruptly closed
A meeting Secretary of State John Kerry held with Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Saud Al-Faisal was abruptly closed to press coverage Tuesday morning.
The State Department initially provided no reason for the change, which was announced just 15 minutes before the scheduled 10 A.M. session, but media reports have said that a Saudi national in the U.S. on a student visa is a “person of interest” to investigators probing the bombings at the Boston Marathon on Monday.
The person being investigated was badly injured in the attack, sources said.

On Wednesday, President Obama met with the Saudi Foreign Minister in the White House under the auspices of discussing Syria. U.S. President Barack Obama met with Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal at the White House on Wednesday and discussed the conflict in Syria, a spokeswoman said. The meeting was not on Obama’s public schedule. The spokeswoman, Caitlin Hayden, said the president joined a meeting between the Saudi official and Obama’s national security adviser, Tom Donilon.

Abdul Rahman Ali Al-Harbi

Abdul Al-Harbi pictured on the left in the above photo.
If you think the story ends here you are wrong.

This photo posted by Ali Alharbi on Twitter shows his son Abdurrahman resting at his hospital room (left frame) and being visited by the Saudi Consul General in New York, Azzam Al-Gain.
Ali Alharbi, the father of the 20-year-old Saudi student who was injured in the deadly Boston blasts has said his son was indeed questioned about the explosions but only as a routine procedure.
he, said his son Abdurrahman was just one of more than hundreds people of various nationalities who were questioned by investigators looking into the blasts that killed three people and injured more than 170 others.
The following is based on a translation of the article that appeared in Okaz:
Ambassador to the royal crown, Adel ben Ahmad Al-Jubeir, had several phone calls with the paper as well as with the Royal family. He stated that very high-ranking, U.S. government officials stated that there is no suspicion of any Saudi nationals relative to the Boston marathon explosions.
The Saudi Consul General in New York, Abdel Karim Alqin assured Okaz that all Saudis have been cleared and two Saudis were injured, including Alharbi and a Saudi female doctor named Nura Khalid Saleh al-Ajaji. Prince Saud al-Faisal, Prince Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah from the Foreign Ministry, and Prince Khaled bin Saud were involved in the entire affair.
Three other Saudis were cleared from the forbidden area, two of which were put in a hotel at the expense of the Saudi consulate.
Alqin disclosed that he cleared three Saudis from the forbidden area and housed two of them in a hotel; the third stayed with a friend. He also met with a group of Saudi students, telling them to carry on with their lives and that Saudi ambassadors would handle everything. These students were also told not to cooperate with any media entities and to lay low.

Also of interest, are the “contractors on the scene as pointed out in our article here. The “Contractors” stood at the Boston Marathon near the Bomb, and left before the detonation. Wearing unmarked, matching uniforms and operating an unmarked SUV with communication equipment near the finish line of the Boston Marathon shortly after the bomb blasts – was seen before the Boston Marathon Bombing, just a little distance away from where the first bomb was detonated.
While they can be seen with their backpacks after the explosion, the black backpack matches the description of the backpack shown in the evidence photos. It could be anybody of these guys, some of them running after the explosion, and as pointed out in my other article all of them quickly disappeared from the scene:

Photo taken approximately 5 Minutes after the explosion. All depicted Agents (& several others alike) are running, leaving the the Strike-Zone in two (or more) separate groups as police starts sealing off the area – almost enclosing them.
.These agents were clearly not there to help any casualties or assist local law-enforcement in their investigation /upholding -order; instead they left the area instantly – and in a sudden rush – as the area was getting sealed off by local law-enforcement….
See the photos in high resolution in this article
Note: Another comparison of this photo circulates on the web, comparing them to Sandy Hook First Responders. I’m just going to show it, not really running with it. Send in a tweet to us:
Something else I came across earlier today, and I’m only showing this as I find it to be interesting, is a man that appears in various photos with Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud, member of the Royal House of Saud and President of Kingdom Holding company.


Below is the photo I came across earlier, not really something to “run” with, but I did find the similarity striking, including the hairline. Is this a body guard of the Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal? Look at the photo below:

Al Waleed Bin Talal (also spelled Waleed bin Talal) is a Saudi Arabian businessman and investor. He is a member of the Saudi royal family. He is the founder, CEO, and 95%-owner of the Kingdom Holding Company. Arabian Business ranked him as the most influential Arab in the world. In March 2013, Forbes listed Talal as the 26th-richest person in the world, with an estimated net worth of US $20 Billion.

Reality is a psyop | Jon Rappoport's Blog

Returning to the Boston massacre, imagine these firmly entrenched conclusions from the three major networks:

CBS: “FBI and local police killed one terrorist and captured the other in what observers are calling one of the bravest days in the history of law enforcement in America. The victims of the Marathon bombing remain indelibly etched in our hearts and minds as we move forward…”

NBC: “After a violent gun battle on the streets of a great American city, during which a suspect in the Boston massacre was killed, an FBI source stunningly revealed they had ended the life of a cooperating informant. He put it this way: ‘The Tsarnaev brothers were recruited by a secret Bureau unit to plant the bombs. The plan was to blame the bombing on so-called patriots, but that fell through, so the Bureau exercised their only option. They put their informants front and center and blamed the whole thing on them…” 

ABC: “Today, the tragic loss of life and wounding of more than 180 persons at the Boston Marathon were partially redeemed, when Boston police traced three pipe bombs, found at the apartment of one of the Tsarnaev brothers, to a CIA storage locker in Maryland…”

In the midst of an uproar heard and echoed around the world, the networks stand by their contradictory versions of events. No one blinks. No one backs down.

A massive blow hits psyop-land. Centralized story? Poleaxed.

People don’t know what to do. They expect one story line and they get three, from the highest hypnotic and influential media giants.

In a literal, though unconscious, sense, familiar time and space begin to fall apart.

But actually, its far more surreal for the three major television networks to agree on the substance of every significant event than to come to radically different conclusions.

Unfortunately, people don’t see it that way. They don’t see that three behemoths dispensing the same information are key elements in thought-police fascism. They don’t see that the consensus is arranged.

They don’t see they are being subjected to one space and time.

Probably the most insightful thing you'll read about the ABC - this chapter from Nick Cater's book The Lucky Culture - Michael Smith News

 Here's one paragraph from the book's chapter on the ABC - here Nick writes about Allan Ashbolt, a man who was considered for the plum job of heading up the new ABC flagship current affairs show This Day Tonight.  Ashbolt was a person of interest to ASIO which warned the ABC General Manager about Ashbolt's communist ties.  Ashbolt was shuffled to a "Special Projects" role, where his scheming and radicalisation was apparently pretty effective!

He was to use the unit's Kings Cross offices as a nursery for a radical class of public broadcasters who saw themselves in the vanguard of a war of independence, launching what Ashbolt later described as "a guerilla campaign" against the ABC, "an ideological arm of the capitalist state machinery". His ideal ABC would be run essentially as a workers' collective in which power would be removed from the ABC commissioners and handed over to its employees. Quality, creative and budget control would be put entirely in the hands of the program makers, leaving the commissioners free to enjoy their claret in the boardroom of "Bullshit Castle", as Ashbolt liked to call Broadcast House.

Boston: locking down the city where the American Revolution was born | Jon Rappoport's Blog

The younger Tsarnaev brother is now in custody. The older brother is dead.
The case is wrapped up. Everything is good.

Except, as a number of writers have pointed out, including Paul Watson, Tony Cartalucci, Kurt Nimmo, and James Corbett, the FBI has a history of involvement in terror events. The Bureau has encouraged and fomented pathetically obvious terrorist plots.

David Shipler, writing in the NY Times (April 28, 2012, “Terrorist Plots, Hatched by the FBI”) details a string of these ops. What he fails to point out is this: such events condition the American people to believe in the war on on terror. Without FBI agents initiating these self-fulfilling prophecies, the enormous infrastructure/industry dedicated to stopping terrorism would take on the bizarre appearance of a manned tank permanently parked outside a candy store. 

So if the Tsarnaev brothers were involved in the Boston bombings, consider that they could have been drawn into a Bureau plan and supplied with the materials to execute that plan.
They could have been told it was a drill, an exercise, to “test the system.” They could have been told the bombs were inert. They could have been used as patsies.

Yes, it would be a better world if we could always rely on the authorities to make clean arrests for clear crimes, present accurate evidence at trial, and obtain honest convictions. But unfortunately, we are not living in that world.

Go back to the 1993 Trade Center bombing. The NY Times exposed the covert role of the FBI through the testimony of one of the Bureau’s dupes (informants), Emad Salem, who was told he would be given fake bombs for a fake event that would scoop up real terrorists. But Salem then stated the FBI decided to go ahead with real bombs at the last minute.

Salem was never permitted to take the stand at trial and testify. The Times article exposing this (October 28, 1993, “Tapes Depict Proposal to Thwart Bomb Used in Trade Center Blast”) was written by Ralph Blumenthal (twitter). Over the years, on two occasions, I’ve tried to talk to Blumenthal about his piece. The first time, some years ago, he blew up on the phone and told me I had the facts (of his article) all wrong. The second time, a few days ago, I emailed him, and so far I’ve received no response.

Discovering a spreadsheet error was never going to end the debate over austerity - and nor should it, according to Megan McArdle, special correspondent for Newsweek and The Daily Beast.

"There is other research showing that you can have these slowdowns when you get to high levels of debt," she says. "We have a very vivid [example] in Greece."

Thomas Herndon 's view is that austerity policies are counter-productive. But right now he's delighted that the first academic paper he's ever published has made such a splash.

"I feel really honoured to have made a contribution to the policy discussion," he says.

FBI tells America: believe us and no one else | Jon Rappoport's Blog

In 1995, Americans completely bought into the false FBI evidence and story. 

Once the FBI rolls and the news media back up the FBI, it’s a fait accompli. The public automatically follows suit. How could things be any different? How could so many resources be devoted to anything but the truth?

“The FBI killed one terrorist. Now they have his brother, the other bomber, surrounded. This is it. This is the only story. Everything else is nonsense.”

Yes, no, and maybe are reduced to yes.

“The FBI would never have come this far with the case if they didn’t have things right.”
Yes, that was exactly the mindset in Oklahoma City in 1995. Until it wasn’t. Until independent researchers uncovered miles of undiscovered information about other suspects and FBI lies.

I want you to imagine the globalist establishment and the useful socialist idiots it employs as a hive of ants lurking in the grass around a bountiful picnic basket you (or your forefathers) worked very hard to procure. Now, one ant snatches a single crumb and races away, and you think to yourself that losing that one crumb is not such a sacrifice. A few more ants pilfer crumbs, and you shrug it off. A dozen more arrive, and you start to worry a little but are still too lazy to pull out the Raid. The rest of the hive sees your apathy and attacks, gobbling everything in a swarm of single-minded destruction. Left with nothing, you sit dumbfounded and hungry, wondering where you went wrong. The truth is, you went wrong with the first ant.

His corroborating evidence that there were bomb sniffing dogs at the Start and Finish Lines as well as the fact that there were several Alerts over the loud speaker telling folks not to worry about the drill taking place, is very damning!!!

Margaret Thatcher Saves Teenage Girl From Clutches of Hitler’s Grasp.

We are sending a shout out to Shady Zadye for sending us this article on Margaret Thatcher who passed away last week. She said that saving a Jewish teenager in Austria from the grasp of Hitler’s terror was her proudest moment.

 In 1938, Edith Muhlbauer, a 17-year-old Jewish girl, wrote to Muriel Roberts, Edith’s pen pal and the future prime minister’s [Margaret Thatcher] older sister, asking if the Roberts family might help her escape Hitler’s Austria. The Nazis had begun rounding up the first of Vienna’s Jews after the Anschluss, and Edith and her family worried she might be next. Alfred Roberts, Margaret and Muriel’s father, was a small-town grocer; the family had neither the time nor the money to take Edith in. So Margaret, then 12, and Muriel, 17, set about raising funds and persuading the local Rotary club to help.

Boston Bomb Squad Running “Controlled Explosion” On Same Day As Marathon Blasts!

Two bombs have rocked the streets of Boston, exploding at the Boston Marathon finish line, killing 3 and injuring more than 100. It’s too early to know the cause of these explosions, but you can rest assured both the state and federal government will try to use this tragic event to blame whatever convenient enemies are most advantageous for the government.

What’s not yet being reported by the mainstream media is that a “controlled explosion” was under way on the same day as the marathon explosion.

As the Boston Globe tweeted today, “Officials: There will be a controlled explosion opposite the library within one minute as part of bomb squad activities.”

All terror attacks are psyops | Jon Rappoport's Blog

All terror attacks are psyops | Jon Rappoport's Blog

It’s a rip in the fabric of perceived reality. Right now.

Retired psyop planner, Ellis Medavoy (pseudonym), told me in a 2002 interview: “People think it’s very esoteric to talk about disruption in the space-time wave. But setting up certain psyops is very much about that. The theory of these operations has everything to do with the fact that people exist in an average and consistent space-time wave.

“They become used to that. They’re not even aware of it. So a psyop can go two ways. It can encourage that form of sleep, to make it continue. Or it can blow people right out of their wave into something that’s very disorienting.

“In the latter case, you’re forcing people out of their average perception of space and time, but you’re not giving them anything to replace it. They’re hanging in a void, so to speak.
“What’s the result? People desperately want a resolution of the psyop, so they can return to their former continuum. And because they feel desperate, they’ll take whatever and whoever you give them. You can say a deer chewed on a power cable and blew out the power for the entire east coast for a week, and they’ll believe you.

“And that’s what you want. The ability to say anything and have people believe you.”

The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum has been closed ‘until further notice’ after it was ravaged by flames while authorities probe whether it’s linked to the Boston Marathon tragedy.
The library fire was reported minutes after the twin bombing near the finish line at Monday’s Boston marathon. It first appeared that the incidents were related, a belief that officials later denied.

But now, officials are turning to the facility, located next to UMass Boston’s campus, as possibly being linked to the terror attack.

AGAIN?!? Eyewitness: Authorities Announced “Drill” Before Boston Explosions |

Eyewitness: Authorities Announced “Drill” Before Boston Explosions |

University of Mobile’s Cross Country Coach, who was near the finish line of the Boston Marathon when a series of explosions went off, said he thought it was odd there were bomb sniffing dogs at the start and finish lines.

“They kept making announcements to the participants do not worry, it’s just a training exercise,” Coach Ali Stevenson told Local 15.

Stevenson said he saw law enforcement spotters on the roofs at the start of the race. He’s been in plenty of marathons in Chicago, D.C., Chicago, London and other major metropolitan areas but has never seen that level of security before.

“Evidently, I don’t believe they were just having a training exercise,” Stevenson said. “I think they must have had some sort of threat or suspicion called in.”

Stevenson had just finished the marathon before the explosions. Stevenson said his wife had been sitting in one of the seating sections where an explosion went off, but thankfully she left her seat and was walking to meet up with him.

“We are just so thankful right now,” Stevenson said.

////////////////////////////

An eyewitness to the two explosions at the Boston Marathon today said that a “drill” was repeatedly announced before the bombs exploded and that he “thought it was odd” bomb sniffing dogs were in place before the blast.

Image: Twitter

University of Mobile’s Cross Country Coach Ali Stevenson told Local 15 News, “They kept making announcements on the loud speaker that it was just a drill and there was nothing to worry about. “It seemed like there was some sort of threat, but they kept telling us it was just a drill.”

The news station also reports that Stevenson “thought it was odd there were bomb sniffing dogs at the start and finish lines.”

Stevenson then describes hearing the explosions as he ran away from the scene, having just completed the marathon.

If this report is accurate, it clearly suggests there could have been some degree of prior knowledge of the bombing, which killed two people and injured at least 23.

The fact that the explosions were preceded and overlapped by a”drill” of an almost identical nature mirrors other major terror attacks, such as the 7/7 bombings in London.

It is important to emphasize that the New York Times recently reported that most of the recent domestic terror plots in the United States “were facilitated by the F.B.I.,” suggesting that today’s incident in Boston may have been part of such an operation.

It remains to be seen how the media and the Obama administration will exploit this incident depending who gets the blame, but Rahm Emanuel’s “never let a serious crisis go to waste” advisory is sure to be in play.

It’s beyond laughable, but so is most of what is going on in this tragedy of a country, disguised as a comedy. The truth is that you are on the hook for the $36 billion of accumulated deficits, the $85 billion of debt and contractual obligations, and the annual $16 billion losses they continue to pile up.

But what’s $120 to $150 billion among friends? Bennie can print that out of thin air in a few days. Why run an operation efficiently at a surplus, when you can keep hundreds of thousands of union government drones employed (until they go on workers comp) by sticking it to the working American taxpayer.

No, they have left the workforce because they are now on the public dole and those that are working are picking up their tab.

it wasn’t because we liked immigrants, but because we didn’t like Britain. We saw immigrants – from anywhere – as allies against the staid, settled, conservative society that our country still was at the end of the Sixties.  Also, we liked to feel oh, so superior to the bewildered people – usually in the poorest parts of Britain – who found their neighbourhoods suddenly transformed into supposedly ‘vibrant communities’.  If they dared to express the mildest objections, we called them bigots.

Revolutionary students didn’t come from such ‘vibrant’ areas (we came, as far as I could tell, mostly from Surrey and the nicer parts of London). We might live in ‘vibrant’ places for a few (usually squalid) years, amid unmown lawns and overflowing dustbins. But we did so as irresponsible, childless transients – not as homeowners, or as parents of school-age children, or as old people hoping for a bit of serenity at the ends of their lives. When we graduated and began to earn serious money, we generally headed for expensive London enclaves and became extremely choosy about where our children went to school, a choice we happily denied the urban poor, the ones we sneered at as ‘racists’.What did we know, or care, of the great silent revolution which even then was beginning to transform the lives of the British poor?

Psalm 109

The Psalms

109

A Cry for Vengeance
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1	Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;
2	for the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me:          they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
3	They compassed me about also with words of hatred;          and fought against me without a cause.
4	For my love they are my adversaries:          but I give myself unto prayer.
5	And they have rewarded me evil for good,          and hatred for my love.
6	Set thou a wicked man over him:          and let Satan stand at his right hand.
7	When he shall be judged, let him be condemned:          and let his prayer become sin.
8	Let his days be few;          and let another take his office. Acts 1.20
9	Let his children be fatherless,          and his wife a widow.
10	Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg:          let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.
11	Let the extortioner catch all that he hath;          and let the strangers spoil his labor.
12	Let there be none to extend mercy unto him:          neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.
13	Let his posterity be cut off;          and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14	Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD;          and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15	Let them be before the LORD continually,          that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
16	Because that he remembered not to show mercy,          but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.
17	As he loved cursing,          so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
18	As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment,          so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.
19	Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him,          and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
20	Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD,          and of them that speak evil against my soul.
21	But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake:          because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.
22	For I am poor and needy,          and my heart is wounded within me.
23	I am gone like the shadow when it declineth:          I am tossed up and down as the locust.
24	My knees are weak through fasting;          and my flesh faileth of fatness.
25	I became also a reproach unto them:          when they looked upon me they shook their heads. Mt. 27.39 · Mk. 15.29
26	Help me, O LORD my God:          O save me according to thy mercy:
27	that they may know that this is thy hand;          that thou, LORD, hast done it.
28	Let them curse, but bless thou:          when they arise, let them be ashamed; but let thy servant rejoice.
29	Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame;          and let them cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.
30	I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth;          yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
31	For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor,          to save him from those that condemn his soul.

 The Senate once again fucked the American people up the ass today by drafting legislation to provide paths to citizenship for 11 million illegal aliens.

When you fire an American meat packer making $16/hour and replace him with an illegal alien for $8/hr, everybody gets their chicken cheaper right?

No.

wrong.

Corporate profits go up. That's all.

That's all this bill benefits. Big motherfucking corporate cigar smoking asshole executives with their eye on a new 3-engine Fountain boat. That and politicians who now get a huge block of ethnic voters in their back pocket. American people, in particular the middle class, get a red hot poker up their ass, again.

As Jim Kunstler pointed out in his blog, Clusterfuck Nation, there are many rational reasons for stopping ALL immigration, including the H1B Visa program, not the least of which is that we have a legion of college graduates with masters and doctoral degress who can't find jobs in their chosen field.

Too many Harvard MBAs driving taxi cabs as it is. We don't need more from Puna.

Madoff investors can't sue SEC -U.S. appeals court | Reuters

Madoff investors can't sue SEC -U.S. appeals court | Reuters


(Reuters) - Victims of Bernard Madoff's investment fraud have lost their bid to sue the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for negligence in failing to uncover the swindler's Ponzi scheme.

A federal appeals court in New York on Wednesday upheld the dismissal of lawsuits against the U.S. securities regulator brought by Madoff investors. The court said the SEC's actions and "regrettable inaction" were protected by a law that shields federal agencies from liability.

The Madoff case embarrassed the SEC, which had investigated the now-imprisoned money manager but failed to detect his fraud.

The investor lawsuits relied heavily on a 2009 report by the SEC Inspector General's office, which outlined how the agency missed red flags and failed to follow up properly on leads that he was running a massive scam at his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC.

Howard Kleinhendler, a lawyer for eight plaintiffs who he said lost $50 million in Madoff's scheme, said he could not envision a better example of a case in which the SEC should be held liable for failing to prevent a fraud.

"It just shows that we spend a lot of money on this agency, and when they screw up, they're not accountable," he said, adding that he would seek U.S. Supreme Court review of the case.

Intelligence insider: Obama administration agenda to “kill U.S Dollar”

Intelligence insider: Obama administration agenda to “kill U.S Dollar”

Some might be surprised to learn that the fate of America’s economy has already been determined, verified and announced by the Obama White House. Yet, it has received scant attention from the corporate media. In 2011, economist Kyle Bass interviewed a senior member of the Obama administration about its planned solutions for fixing the US economy and trade deficit.

Among the questions he asked was about U.S. exports and wages, but the question itself was not nearly as important as the response he received from this senior administration official. In fact, this single, seven word response clarifies everything, explains everything, and leaves little else to discuss:

“We’re just going to kill the dollar.”

To quote Billy Bragg, the third world's just around the corner. And so is reality for these nomenklatura in the making. Thatcher always had more courage than her critics | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog

The Melbourne University Students’ Union passed this barbaric resolution on the death of an 87-year-old lady:

That Students’ Council recognise the horrific legacy of Margaret Thatcher and her neoliberal policies that destroyed the lives of millions, her violent crushing of the miners’ strike, her oppression of the Irish and murder of Bobby Sands and other hunger strikes, her unconditioned support for right-wing dictators like Pinochet and Suharto and her support for apartheid in South Africa, among many other things and celebrates her death unreservedly. Students’ Council also commits to organising a screening of the Ken Loach film ‘Which side are you on?’ to further celebrate this event.

Farrago, the student magazine, published the names of the guilty, the weak and the three who stood against this barbarism:

For:
Annalivia Carli Hannan (Stand Up!/Labor Left)
Patrick Alves (Left Action/Socialist Alliance)
Belle O’Connor (Activate/’grassroots/independent’ left)
Jess Evans (Activate/’grassroots/independent’ left)
Maddee Clark (Activate/’grassroots/independent’ left)

Abstain:
Adam Galvin (Stand Up!/Labor Left)
Hana Dalton (Stand Up!/Labor Left)
Sarina Murray (Independent Media)

Against:
Matthew Lesh (NOW!/Liberal)
Charles Cartney (NOW!/Liberal)

Margaret Thatcher had the courage to stand by her decisions and to be held accountable for them. But do the students who damned her?

It was nice knowing you, America | Jon Rappoport's Blog

It was nice knowing you, America | Jon Rappoport's Blog

In 2001, a landmark article in the LA Times, written by Linda Marsa, reported that 100,000 Americans are killed by FDA-approved pharmaceutical drugs every year, and 2.1 million more people are hospitalized as a result of adverse reactions to the medical drugs. In all, there are 22 million significant adverse reactions each year in the US.

The Times article was based, in part, on a July 26, 2000, review by Dr. Barbara Starfield, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association: “Is US health really the best in the world?”

Starfield stated that the American medical system kills 225,000 people a year, or 2.25 million people per decade. Of these, slightly less than half are killed by FDA-approved medicines, and the rest meet their deaths as a result of malpractice and errors committed in hospitals.

Of course, there are also the untold numbers of Americans exposed to GMO crops, fluorides, and toxic pesticides.

And then there is the number of people US troops have killed and maimed in recent foreign wars. Economic sanctions alone, between the two Iraq wars, killed 500,000 Iraqi children.

How did this culture of death and disability take over?

Could one possibly attribute the great change to a deterioration of principle? And its replacement with a sheer intent to conquer, sell, consume, profit, gorge, and cheat no matter what the outcome?

Given the fact that more and more Americans don’t even know what a principle is, it’s obvious that a deterioration has occurred.

Forget the idea of help from central government. It continues to rot as it expands. It enables spokespersons who wouldn’t be able to wake up in the morning if they didn’t have at least a dozen lies to tell during the coming day.

The commander-in-chief of lies is the president. Bush, Obama, it makes no difference. Lies, obfuscations, omissions, pretenses, excuses, cover stories. They’re a president’s stock in trade. Some presidents lie more convincingly than others.

It’s exactly what you would expect from any major corporate CEO. The federal government is basically a self-generating bank with an army.

A public official is a person who a) cultivates a corrupt objective and then b) drapes it in false Caring. Heaven slowly reveals itself as Hell.

A public official is a fragment of scum seeking to join a larger lake of scum.

A public official attempts to earn entrance to a circle of people far more corrupt than he ever dreamed he could be.

Media anchors are barnacles on public officials.

Viewer-adherents to the nightly news are androids who, as they sit mute before their screens, experience a weak electric signal they interpret as satisfaction.

Sensorily, telepathically, intellectually, the androids transit to their young the value of these signals.

The official apparatus of information merges with the human nervous system to illuminate a desolate cartoon that plays over and over and produces movements in ligaments, tendons, and muscles called “life.”.

From brain to brain and mind to mind, without sound or word, the affirmation of an existence empty of principle is transmitted at a speed beyond that of light.

The collective consciousness anticipates the next hyper-sentimental tragedy in the circus maximus.

Technocrats are busy designing a machine-brain that will mimic all these reflections, and this machine will be called utopia.

With eyes averted, the populace studiously ignores the figure standing in the wings:

The individual. The awake individual.

The alive and intensely creative individual, who is free.

The individual who refuses to join the crippled parade.

Why would he join it? For the barely traceable comfort of a wan washed-out hope?

The principle of the free and powerful individual was once a barrier against the assault of the government-corporate State. It was a reminder that we could live beyond the shadow of collectivist destruction emblazoned in the statistics I cited above.

The principle offered the promise that groups of such free individuals, without compromise, could band together and embody achievement, strength, and independence from entrenched authority.

But an intense psychological operation was underway and has continued to this day. Its essence is: the collective is everything, the hive is everything, the individual is nothing, the individual is the cause of all our trouble.

Turning the truth upside down and deserting the principle of the individual has done as much harm to the house of this nation as any bomb could. More actually, because of the effect on the mind and spirit.

The answer to this massive crime and its effects has to begin with a renaissance of the individual, no matter how distant the prospects of success may seem.

Waking up isn’t a group phenomenon. The building block is the single human being. The layers and webs and networks of collectivist illusion have to be wiped away from his eyes.

The Group as the basis for all life is the lie that has gotten us this far down the road to perdition. It is the image promoted by the psyop. It is the false dream that has been used and twisted to push an agenda of endless Need which must be fed from Above.

From the earliest days of history on this planet, top-down authority, aided and abetted by a privileged priest or intellectual class, has monopolized power by defining the population as a mass and a group, and that formula has been assiduously followed in every society and civilization.

It is being followed now, to squelch the consciousness of the individual, and demote that from a cardinal principle to an “outmoded and primitive evolutionary dead-end.”

The results, in this country, are there for anyone to see.

So is the solution.

I think I finally get it! The tone, the sense of achievement in Jason Clare's boat people anouncements - Michael Smith News

If we must have an announcement about each illegal boat arrival, why doesn't the Minister say something like this:

Another leaky wooden boat penetrated Australia's defences today and made its way into our territorial waters.   There were 167 illegal entrants on board, they all claimed asylum, that means that 167 poor buggers in the camps miss out because these cashed up queue jumpers took their spots.  

 Each of the illegal arrivals on this boat paid $10,000 in cash to a people smuggler - that means that organised pan-regional crime syndicates have another $1.67 million just from this one boat to finance their criminal and suspected terrorist activities.  

 The people who've arrived illegally on this boat will cost us all about $20 million in housing, processing and welfare costs. 

More than 94% of the people on board this boat will be on Australian taxpayer provided welfare payments as their sole income for the next 5 years. Australia is worse of today than it was yesterday because of this arrival.

WHEN SOCIAL MEDIA IS A SOCIAL DISEASE - The Pickering Post

WHEN SOCIAL MEDIA IS A SOCIAL DISEASE - The Pickering Post

In the wake of an outrageous attempt to gag the Press, McTernan has arranged through the PM’s office to close Twitter accounts critical of Gillard and censor messages. This was achieved with the cooperation of Twitter’s roving publicist, Mike Brown.

Hundreds of complaints have been made to Twitter about messages being deleted and in some circumstances altered to appear as pro-Gillard Tweets.

Whether serious money changed hands or not cannot be established but why, immediately after a visit from McTernan, did a grubby little Yank going by the name of Mike Brown, start censoring Tweets?
Tweets critical of Abbott have remained untouched. Among those emanating from the PM’s office are particularly offensive such as from the account of AshGhebranious: “They will send Abbott’s daughters to Indonesia to have sex with Ministers till they allow coalition to tow back boats.” That tweet remains.

Another from the same account: “You planning to murder any refugees today? Putting it live stream for your fans” #730# Auspol @MathiasCorman.

There are too many instances to itemise, but these filthy messages remain uncensored while those critical of Gillard instantly disappear.

There have been many posts of incriminating material, regarding Gillard’s involvement in the AWU fraud, simply disappearing from my Facebook page.

No explanation and no reply from Facebook. If I repost I am immediately banned.
I understand that the strapon could be seen as offensive, but not a copy of a fraudulent application form in Gillard’s handwriting.

Thus the website The Pickering Post was born yet that website has also suffered continual hacking and DoS attacks rendering it unusable for days at a time until we can invent ways to stop them.
A female in the PM’s Office by the name of Tadlette and using the account name of “Apparatchik Tads”, appears to be the driving force behind this gutter level of Twitter bastardry.

Tadlette tweeted “Hi @TwitterAU the right wing trolls are posting personal info inciting harassment IRL... please monitor @anonOz1 bit.ly/YJMj8q

Gillard and McTernan’s stated determination to emulate Obama’s re-election using social media techniques is starting to take shape.

There will be much more to come and the PM’s coffers are overflowing with hard union cash.

The Daily Bell - The New Era in Gold Repatriation Will Affect Everything

The Daily Bell - The New Era in Gold Repatriation Will Affect Everything

The old era in which central banking trust was ingrained in the system is gone now – and the ramifications are many even though they have not yet been felt. Central banks and bankers rely on joint programs and coordinated currency approaches. Without trust, strategies are difficult to create and programs are hard to implement.
This is not a hypothetical observation. As gold prices have moved up and Western currencies have looked increasingly subject to a currency competition, the pressure on politicians to assure gold reserves has increased. Couple this with the overseas storage of much gold reserves, and the situation becomes combustible.
In the case of Mexico, questions have been raised about the country's off-shore storage of precious metals and its ability to take possession if necessary. These concerns have been magnified by Germany's experience. Germany's Bundesbank intends to repatriate a large portion of gold reserves abroad and by 2020 seeks to have at least 50 percent of its total gold reserves at home.
This amount includes 300 tons from the Federal Reserve – which the US Fed may or may not have available. It is unclear, as the Fed refused to submit to an audit of Germany's gold. The apparent tension was compounded by the slowness of the repatriation. Germany will get its gold but not for seven years.
As for Mexico, well ... there is a good deal of paperwork that must be sorted out – and Mexico is in much the same shape as Germany regarding overseas holdings of assets. Mexico's central bank owns gold but it might be considered "paper gold" as the actual physical holdings are not available. Here's more from the article:

The Government Audit Office has concluded that 95% of the gold reserves of the Bank of Mexico are stored abroad and 99% of this gold is stored with the Bank of England. However, the Mexican central bank has never inspected the gold it bought, has not performed purity tests on it and doesn't even have a list of all the gold bars stored in London. In their current state, Mexico's gold reserves are no more than "paper gold" in the meaning that the Bank of Mexico doesn't have any physical gold, but mere "claims" on a certain amount of gold supposedly held by the Bank of England.

Bill Gross, the Chief Investment Officer of PIMCO (the world's largest bond fund) has recently said that "Central banks distrust each other". The pending audit of the Mexican gold reserves is not a singular case of actions that show a high level of mutual distrust among central banks. The latest move of the Bundesbank, which demanded the repatriation of its gold holding from Bank of New York, Bank of England and Banque de France, is another sign of distrust in the world's financial system. It is quite probable that after the audit, Mexico will decide to repatriate its gold holdings, possibly prompting other countries to follow suit.

It is the distrust – increasingly in evidence – between central banks and governments that makes the issue of gold repatriation even more contentious. In a market environment increasingly marked by currency competition, government officials and bankers can be polarized by a lack of communication and difficulties in locating assets.

This is only bound to exacerbate tensions that are currently manifesting themselves in what are called currency wars. These currency wars are not going to subside any time soon and will probably expand in scope and vehemence as stresses and strains on the world's financial system continue.
