"The Train Wreck Is Coming," David Stockman Warns, "All Hell Will Break Loose"

“Stay Out Of Harm’s Way” On Today’s Turbulent Financial Markets - David Stockman, King World News Interview.
Transcript:
Eric King:  “David, the man who is counsel to big money around the world, Michael Belkin, just spoke with KWN and issued a dire warning for the financial markets.  I just wondered how you see things at this point with the Dow recently tumbling and everything that is happening across the globe?  What should we expect?”

Stockman“Well, the watchword at this point is stay out of harm’s way.  We are headed into a perfect storm of policy failures.  This is not simply a failure by the Fed, which has inflated this massive bubble and painted itself into a corner with no clue how to get out, but we are also seeing an absolute failure of American world dominance….

Our foreign policy is collapsing everywhere and yet the Washington war party keeps wanting to do more of the same.  This confrontation with Putin is utterly out of hand and unnecessary.  Now we have a trade war going that is going to ricochet through an already fragile European economy.

The Gender Wage Gap - The Facts Behind The Myths - Warren Farrell

AVfM: In this video series, Warren fairly thoroughly debunks the notion that women are as a rule paid less because they are women. The entire series is worth watching for anyone who still doubts that there are a lot of lies behind this dubious statistic.–DE

At No Stage Did We Say War Over: Netanyahu + Israeli Death Troopers Shoot Dead, In The Back, Palestinian 11 Year Old At Play In West Bank

Apartheid Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin "The Butcher Of Gaza" Netanyahu has threatened to press ahead with its deadly offesive in the blockaded Gaza Strip.
Zionist Orwellian UK BANNED Press TV: Netanyahu told a cabinet meeting in Tel Aviv on Sunday that the Israeli aerial and ground forces will launch more deadly attacks on the besieged Palestinian coastal enclave.
"Operation Protective Edge is continuing, at no stage did we say it was over. The operation will continue until we achieve our objectives - the return of quiet for a prolonged period," Netanyahu said.
Israel's Minister of Communications has also said that Tel Aviv has no other choice but to reoccupy Gaza and topple Hamas.
Israeli right- wing Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has also hailed the Gaza massacre as a success.
"There is no doubt that the only thing left to do now is to overpower Hamas, clean out the territory and get out as quickly as possible," Lieberman said.
The remarks come as a recent poll shows most Israelis' view corresponds with that of the Palestinian resistance movement, Hamas, which says Tel Aviv failed to achieve its goals in its bloody attacks.
The rising death toll of Israeli forces during the attacks on Gaza had prompted growing opposition to the war among the Israeli public.
Meanwhile, genocidal Netanyahu has also said that his regime won't engage in negotiations with Hamas to end its offensive in Gaza.

Enron-ization Of Water: Wall Street’s Pending Resource Grab

By Don Quijones: As Leonardo Da Vinci once said, water is the driving force of all nature.” It could also soon become the driving force of immense corporate profits and financial sector returns. For water is not just an essential public and natural good, it is a precious resource whose growing global scarcity has the potential to turn the content of rivers, lakes and reservoirs into transparent liquid gold.
The problem of water scarcity is growing at an alarming rate. By 2050, experts forecast a 55% increase in the amount of water required to meet demand from rising populations, food production and industry. Failure to meet that demand will have devastating consequences: water shortages will become chronic, leading to the proliferation of water riots and water wars. According to UN estimates, $1.8 trillion in new investments will be needed over the next 20 years to avoid such a calamity. The question is:
Whence Will That Money Come?
According to the wise masters of big capital and finance, there can only be one source: the ever-knowing, ever-perfect financial markets. Writing in the Daily Telegraph, Andrew Critchlow argued the case for financializing water:

Institutionalised Misandry: Stephen A. Smith Was Right & Censoring Thugs Are Punishing Him For It

“To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.”- Voltaire
By : Last month’s events surrounding sports journalist and radio host Stephen A. Smith, where he told an inconvenient truth about domestic and spousal abuse and was pilloried and punished for it, is important for two reasons:

  1. Because it highlights yet again the Power of the Cathedral; and
  2. Because it points to a very powerful truth that never gets to see the light of day.
I want to discuss both of these points in more detail, but first, a bit of indulgence on my part about Stephen A.
Though born and raised in New York City, Stephen A. is considered a homeboy here in Philly since he made his career in sports writing with the Inquirer, Philly’s biggest newspaper. I came to know of him in the latter 1990s, when he would appear on WIP, the city’s flagship sports talk station. Not only was I proud of him for being a Brotha doin’ the darn thing in a White Guy–dominated field, but I also admired him for not being afraid to speak unmentionable truths about life both in and outside of sports—even when it cut against the “post-racial” grain of the conceit that is de jour for our current society.
Alice Walker’s novel The Colour Purple, a hatchet job on Brothas writ large. ...So for Goldberg to come out in defense of Stephen A. really says something. I know it does to me.

Women Are Retarded - The C.O.C.K. Fairy

 Feminism LOL: I am not a woman and this is why.
P.S. Some women are more retarded than others.

I'm "high" on life... and I want to tell you about it

That's why I want to learn the piano. ...I can burp on demand and fart when necessary but I can't play the clarinet. ...I'm on an edible high. If you don't smoke pot, don't start, eat it, It's so much better!"

BananaRepublicazation - Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert with Simon Rose

Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert discuss the free trade rackets like CAFTA, which was pitched to the public in 2005 as a way to halt mass migration from Central America into the USA. The argument went that the ‘free trade’ deal would cause both economies to boom and so there would be no reason for immigrants to come to the USA. Instead, subsidized agricultural products have devastated the livelihoods of millions in Central America, exacerbating the consequences of the devastating drug war.

PC Justice: Jilted Bride 'Dr. Castro' Cuts Dangler Off

"He breaks up with her then, ...she cuts the dangler off, paid for the house to be burned and car wrecked. That's not vindictive. It's just an alternative way of dealing with a problem, it's not being vindictive, it's not being evil."  Bernard Chapin
