Critical Lessons from the Facebook Scam: A Blast from the Past

EXTRACT:

Next, there’s the valuation based on how much the business owner can inflate the sales price. I will call this the seller’s valuation. Usually, when the buyer plans on keeping the business there is a back and forth struggle for final valuation between buyer and seller. But when the buyer is an investment bank the valuation is based largely on how much they think they can flip it to others for in a public offering. So in this later case the company only receives seller’s valuation because the buyers aren’t involved in the valuation process.  Thus, as you can imagine when Wall Street gets involved in the IPO game, many stocks collapse within a couple of years of their IPO price.

Phi Beta Iota:  It's not a conspiracy if the facts bear out the story.  We are not completely comfortable with this account, but as with the 9/11 truth movement, there is more than enough here to warrant indictments and send people to jail.  When a government does not do that–does not defend the public interest–it is called “control fraud” which means that the government is complicit in the crime.

Huh?

We can see by comparing the subsets of figures below that the radioactive particle emission through the air from Fukushima is not only 3.7 times higher than Chernobyl; but, more importantly, 28.3 times more radiotoxic with every breath you take.

Fukushima’s Melted Reactors 500 Days On

Radioactive Inventory Numbers

…by Bob Nichols

(San Francisco) – Dr. Paolo Scampa, PhD, a well-known physicist in the European Union, has prepared a radioactive inventory of Fukushima Daiichi’s destroyed  nuclear power plants 500 days after the meltdown of three disemboweled, mangled reactors.

The violent extinction level event occurred Mar 11, 2011. The deadly meltdown and dispersion of radioactive fuel throughout the world is on-going to this day.

Because of the nature of long-lived and short-lived radioactivity, this summation of the radioactive Fukushima inventory is valid for many years. Dr. Scampa’s inventory is current as of Friday, June 29, 2012.

2010 – Testing Our Predictions by Today’s Reality

ANALYZING STAGED WORLD CONFLICT

… by  Gordon Duff  (from June 2010)

“Twenty five months have passed since this piece was written.  We republish it today to see how it has weathered? Were we on the right track then or do we now look like fools? We write ‘em, you decide ‘em.  But remember, Fox News missed all of this. Why?”

“If those papers have to be produced over the nukes that later got lost in Oman, and on the watch of Dr. David Kelly, then it could be disastrous for David Cameron. This, particularly as one of the three atomic bombs lost back at the time of the first Gulf War, was exploded by North Korea on 25th May 2009.”

In 2006, North Korea exploded a plutonium based nuclear weapon, an unsuccessful test of a “found” nuke in poor repair, or something poorly designed.

America had predicted that they were at least five years from this capability, we always hear the same story, everyone is five years from having nuclear weapons.

On May 25th, 2009, North Korea exploded its second bomb, its first clearly identifiable nuclear weapon, a “Hiroshima sized” bomb, tiny by US standards.

What we didn’t say is that the signature of this bomb had been seen before.

An identical nuclear weapon, manufactured at the same facility, same design, same impurities, had been exploded in September 22, 1979, in a test in the Indian Ocean conducted jointly by Israel and South Africa.

AN ARMY OUTGUNNED: Physics Demands A New Basic Combat Weapon

Joseph P. Avery, Ph.D.

Military Review, 20120813

PDF 7 pages

Phi Beta Iota:  We've known since the early days of Viet-Nam that the M16 was a Mattel Toy with ammunition to match.  For lack of proper acquisition intelligence including real-world Operational Test & Evaluation, Congressional pork has been over-riding military integrity for decades.  When General Al Gray, USMC, then the Commandant, created the Marine Corps Intelligence Center, he created it primarily to provide threat and acquisition intelligence and especially logistics and counter-measures intelligence because the expeditionary environment requires systems (air, ground, sea) that have lower profiles across the board.  The Center soon got carried away with support to the Fleet Marine Force and has not made a difference where it mattered, on expeditionary acquisition and the strategy of the USMC force structure build, or the integrity of the USMC acquisition process as a whole.  The three big services routinely lie about the threat to get bigger better more complex systems; they routinely downplay the logistics and communications support costs; and they lie often and outright about the true cost of systems–not just dollars, but lost everything including human lives.  The 4% of the force that actually uses these  plastic representations of Congressional pork take 80% of the casualties and gets 1% of the Pentagon budget.  In our view, this continued neglect of the front-life infantry is the single greatest fault of every Secretary of Defense going back to McNamara and Clifford has betrayed the public trust.  We lack intelligence and integrity across  the US Government, but it is most expensive, in lives, treasure, and lost global legitimacy, in the Department of Defense.

President Obama Wants Smartphones, Tablets To Improve Intel Monitoring: Sez Head of White House Communications Agency

WASHINGTON: When the Presidential Daily Briefing occurs, a top intelligence official traditionally hands the president a folder with a sheaf of paper inside. The president may read what's inside or have it presented by the intelligence official. Then comes question time, when the chief executive and commander in chief can ask how reliable a source is or question the assumptions of an analysis he's just read.

But that will change. The president and his top officials want and will get a single mobile device allowing them to access highly classified and unclassified data wherever they are. The early fruits of the intelligence community's early efforts to do that are visible in the photo above. It shows President Obama in the Oval Office on January 31 using a technically neutered tablet as part of the Presidential Daily Briefing.

. . . . . .

A single device is the Holy Grail for the intelligence community and senior government officials, but it will be some time before it happens, the colonel said. In the near term, the White House hopes to issue two devices: one for classified and another for unclassified communications. It is coordinating with the Defense Department and the National Security Agency to ensure access to secure defense communications networks intelligence grade cryptographic algorithms.

Chuck Spinney: Invented People Plan War Over Temple on the Mount

Chuck Spinney

I can not judge this source … I do not know anything about the publication — the article is fascinating.  In 2008, I visited Temple Mount and saw the Israeli archaeology project, which literally abuts the al Aqsa Mosque.  Totally sealed off and makes it inconvenient for Palestinians to visit mosque.  If they decide to rebuild temple, they will have to destroy mosque — I need not tell what that means.

Surely, Israelis understand that means going to the mattresses with the entire Arab world (including Christian Arabs because they depend on religious tolerance which is more prevalent among moslems than jew in that part of world).  In fact, rebuilding the temple could unite Shi'ites and Sunnis.  Netanyahu, for all his rhetoric, is more cautious about starting wars — look at his track record — he is a master of bluffing.  Olmert and perhaps Barak are more dangerous.

The problem of course, is controlling the right wing crazies in Israel, and IDF is definitely getting more religious.  The really tragic irony in all this is the most Israelis come from or are descended from eastern Europeans (Netanyahu is of Lithuanian descent), and in all probability, the vast bulk of E. European Jewry is descended from Kazars who converted from paganism to Judiaism 400-800 years AFTER the temple was destroyed.  The true descendants of the Jews who suffered the Roman persecution are probably the Palestinians who converted to Islam.  A distinguished Israeli historian at U. of Tel Aviv, Schlomo Sand, has written a stunning history of the Jewish “diaspora” that concluded most was the result of conversion not migration.  The name of the book is The Invention of Jewish People.  I really recommend it.

Peer-to-peer production and the coming of the commons | Red Pepper

Michel Bauwens examines how collaborative, commons-based production is emerging to challenge capitalism. Below, Hilary Wainwright responds

Capitalism in its present form is facing limits, especially resource limits, and in spite of the rapid growth of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) economies, is undergoing a process of decomposition. The question is whether the new proto-mode can generate the institutional capacity and the alliances able to break the political power of the old order.
