Analysis: U.S. fighter sales soar in time for campaign

(Reuters) – Booming Middle East purchases of U.S. fighter jets will be a bright spot in what is expected to be a sluggish economy in 2012, possibly paying dividends for President Barack Obama's bid for a second term.

Beneficiaries include Lockheed Martin Corp and Boeing Co, whose respective F-16 and F-15 production lines are being extended by U.S. government sales to Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Oman, among other rich arms deals announced in recent weeks.

Phi Beta Iota:  The only beneficiaries here are Lockheed Martin and Boeing executives and Class A stock-holders.  Everyone else gets screwed.  In addition, the jobs never materialize–this is a scam.

Goldman Sachs VP Changed Name, Now a Top Congressional Staffer

truth-out.org, Thursday 18 August 2011

by: Lee Fang, ThinkProgress | Report

Has Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) turned the House Oversight Committee into a bank lobbying firm with the power to subpoena and pressure government regulators? ThinkProgress has found that a Goldman Sachs vice president changed his name, then quietly went to work for Issa to coordinate his effort to thwart regulations that affect Goldman Sachs’ bottom line.

In July, Issa sent a letter to top government regulators demanding that they back off and provide more justification for new margin requirements for financial firms dealing in derivatives. A standard practice on Capitol Hill is to end a letter to a government agency with

contact information for the congressional staffer responsible for working on the issue for the committee. In most cases, the contact staffer is the one who actually writes such letters. With this in mind, it is important to note that the Issa letter ended with contact information for Peter Haller, a staffer hired this year to work for Issa on the Oversight Committee.

Issa’s demand to regulators is exactly what banks have been wishing for. Indeed, Goldman Sachs has spent millions this year trying to slow down the implementation of the new rules. In the letter, Issa explicitly mentions that the new derivative regulations might hurt brokers “such as Goldman Sachs.”

PhiBetaIota:  This reveals impeachable actions by the Representative, and very likely, criminal conflict of interest actions against the Goldman Sachs executive committing fraud.  The real question is: how many more moles are there across the US Government, in all three branches?  We can start with everyone who has a Top Secret clearance and is a dual US/Israeli citizen.

One of the most frustrating issues to haunt the halls of alternative economic analysis is the threat of misrepresentative terminology.

For instance, when the U.S. government decided to back the private Federal Reserve in lowering the interest rates on lending windows to European banks last month, they did not call this a bailout, even though that’s exactly what it was.  They did not call it quantitative easing, or fiat printing, or a hyperinflationary landmine; rarely does bureaucracy ever apply honest terminology to their subversive activities.

False terminology is the bane of every honest analyst, because in order for them to educate and awaken those who are unaware of the truth, they must first battle through the daunting muck of the general public’s horrifically improper perceptions and vocabulary.

PhiBetaIota:  There seems to be an emerging conflict between those who control actual natural resources, and those who control printing presses and goons with guns.  Some of the stuff being planned for 21 December 2012 is mind-boggling.  The good news is that the eugenics / rule by secrecy crowd appears to finally be losing to the diversity / open source everything crowd.  We are pleased to be part of the latter group.

Strong signals of sanity that the status quo minds will consider lunacy.  No idea how much of this is solid, but all indications are that 2012 will flip the old system out and that the military will side with the people, not the banks.

Integrity is now back in style.  Give this a chance–it provokes reflection.

Global Financial Report – interview with Benjamin Fulford (12-29-11)

Benjamin Fulford, former Japanese correspondent for Forbes Magazine, is interviewed on the Sean David Morton Strange Universe radio program and talks about the state of the world economy from ‘where he sits’. Ben is in one of the ‘loops’, regarding efforts being made by some of the world’s most powerful people to restore global economic sanity. There are many now attempting to stop the corrupt international financial gangsters (including the Federal Reserve bankers) and their relentless destructive schemes.

PhiBetaIota:  In the absence of a professional national intelligence community that is actually capable of addressing the public interest, it is difficult to sort the noise from the signal, especially when 50% or more of the noise is self-generated.  This is why public intelligence matters.  Secret intelligence, an adjunct of “rule by secrecy,” has failed in the Constitutional sense.  Now it appears–there is no way for an honest public observer to be certain of anything at this point–that nuclear devices are being planted to created massive tsunamis and earthquakes that “reboot” the global economy in favor of those who plan in advance for the flooding–one reason this is now the most popular search at this web site, overtaking the search for integrity.  There are many contradictions, inconsistencies, even outlandish thoughts, but we are at a point where nothing from official circles can be trusted, and everything from non-official circles must be considered.  The specifics are there and need to be verified.

NEW FINANCIAL SYSTEM BEING IMPLEMENTED

Benjamin Fulford
Dec. 28, 2011

Multiple reliable sources in three continents are all now reporting that a major breakthrough in the financial logjam is imminent. We can confirm from our own sources (including MI6 and Japanese military intelligence) that a large delegation descended on Washington last week and read the riot act to the Washington D.C. establishment.

They have been informed the Federal Reserve Board must be shut down immediately and the new financial system must be implemented or else the United States would be totally cut off from the world. The military is also close to open revolt with more than half of the military supporting a total clean up of Washington D.C., according to a CIA source. The Washington establishment therefore faces a choice between stepping aside and facing a truth commission or else arrest, civil war, chaos and eventual death for all members of the ruling cabal. We believe that sane minds will prevail in such a situation and that a peaceful resolution is imminent. However, it is not over until it is over.
