    Some posts from e-mails I’ve recieved via a user group..interesting posts here..[biggrin]

    SAS Black Ops in Basra – dressed as ARABS, had WIGS and ANTI TANK
    Missiles.

    ‘So, the next time you read or hear about (PsyOp) crazed “al-Qaeda
    in Iraq” terrorists blowing up children or desperate job applicants,
    keep in mind, according to the Iraqi Interior Ministry, the
    perpetrators may very well be British SAS’

    This incident helps confirm the Neo-Con’s strategy with
    its ‘Proactive Preemptive Operations Group’ which is intended
    to “stimulate reactions” from “terrorists”…

    Two persons wearing Arab uniforms opened fire at a police station in
    Basra. A police patrol followed the attackers and captured them to
    discover they were two British soldiers,” an Interior Ministry
    source told Xinhua. The two soldiers were using a civilian car
    packed with explosives, the source said.

    We have long had reason to suspect imperial instigation to Iraq’s
    sectarian violence, but here, as clearly as we’ve ever seen it, is
    the provocateur state revealed: two British “undercover soldiers” in
    Arab dress, caught firing upon police from a car laden with
    explosives. And the British government all but admitting its
    culpability by breaking them out of prison.

    Iraqi security officials on Monday variously accused the two Britons
    they detained of shooting at Iraqi forces or trying to plant
    explosives.

    British forces using tanks broke down the walls of the central jail
    in the southern city of Basra late Monday and freed two Britons,
    allegedly undercover commandos, who had been arrested on charges of
    shooting two Iraqi policemen.

    Iraqi television on Tuesday showed footage of the two soldiers,
    unshaven and looking nervous as Iraqi police looked over wigs, Arab
    headresses, an anti-tank missile and communications equipment, all
    apparently used in their mission.

    The images of the pair seemed sure to fuel suspicions by militias in
    Basra and elsewhere who believe foreign troops are on a secret
    mission to exploit Iraq.

    It doesn’t make sense? Only if you haven’t been paying attention.
    This is the subtext of the Iraq tragedy: blow up the Hajis and play
    the Sunnis on the Shias; create the chaos that introduces the
    conditions necessary for the long-game, and the long-held
    aspirations of the neoconservatives to divide Iraq into ethnographic
    bantustans.

    I wonder what will be made of this story by those who think
    escalating bloodshed in Iraq is a measure of the failure of US
    policy, and not its success, and who believe black ops and false
    flags are figments of our paranoiac fantasies.

    Of course, this unfortunate and embarrassing incident in Basra will
    fall off the front page of corporate newspapers and websites soon
    enough, replaced with more appropriate, if fantastical, propaganda
    implicating the Iraqi resistance and intel ops such as al-Zarqawi
    for the violence, obviously engineered to create a civil war in Iraq
    and thus divide the country and accomplish the neocon-Likudite plan
    to destroy Islamic culture and society.

    So, the next time you read or hear about (PsyOp) crazed “al-Qaeda in
    Iraq” terrorists blowing up children or desperate job applicants,
    keep in mind, according to the Iraqi Interior Ministry, the
    perpetrators may very well be British SAS goons who cut their teeth
    killing Irish citizens.

    The only (mainstream media) outlet to ask any serious questions was
    Australian TV news which according to one viewer gave, “credibility
    to the ‘conspiracy theorists’ who have long claimed many terrorist
    acts in Iraq are, in fact, being initiated and carried out by US,
    British and Israeli forces.”

    .” Is it possible the “hard end” of the “mission” in Iraq is to
    discredit the resistance and sow chaos in the country by fronting
    pseudo-gang terrorist groups (or the variant “pseudo-guerilla
    operations”), as the British have ample experience with elsewhere,
    notably in Kenya during the Mau Mau uprising and in Malaya? “Pseudo
    operations are those in which government forces disguised as
    guerrillas, normally along with guerrilla defectors, operate as
    teams to infiltrate insurgent areas,”

    Even though the Washington Post mentions two Brits were detained,
    apparently caught red-handed shooting Iraqi police and planting
    explosives, it does not bother to mention the SAS or its long and
    sordid history of engaging in covert pseudo-gang behavior and
    conclude the obvious: Britain, and the United States—the latter
    having admitted formulating the Proactive Preemptive Operations
    Group (P2OG) in 2002, a brain child of neocons staffing the
    Pentagon’s Defense Science Board, designed to “stimulate reactions”
    on the part of “terrorists” (in Iraq, that would be the resistance)—
    are intimately involved in sowing chaos and spreading violence in
    Iraq and more than likely soon enough in Iran and Syria.

    Collapse of US fund exposes global debt scam
    Bayou seen caught in fraudsters’ trap while trying to recoup losses.

    By NEIL BEHRMANN
    IN LONDON

    COURT records of the US$440 million collapse of Bayou, the
    Connecticut US based hedge fund, have disclosed an international
    scam involving high yield debt.

    In delving into the Bayou fraud, Arizona’s Attorney General
    discovered that US$101 million was transferred from the US to
    banking accounts in Germany, London and Hong Kong then back to
    London and the US again.

    The Arizona authorities, legal firms and traders allege that the
    founder of Bayou, Samuel Israel 111, and other executives overstated
    profits and understated losses of the hedge fund.

    In an attempt to recoup losses, Mr Israel invested in high yield
    debt and was caught in what is known as ‘prime bank instrument
    fraud’, lawyers believe.

    This type of fraud has trapped investors around the world and has
    been explained fully in court documents relating to the Bayou
    scandal. In markets where interest rates have fallen to historically
    low levels, the court documents show that Singapore and other
    investors must be wary of promises about so called ‘prime’ high
    yield long and short term bonds.

    ‘Prime bank instruments’ also known as ‘high yield investment’
    programmes are mythical fraudulent debt or bank instruments. The
    global fraud has been going on for several years.

    Fraudsters attract investors because they claim that they give them
    access to high yield debt that is only traded by large, ‘prime’
    European or other banks.

    To justify the high yields on so called ‘prime’ or top quality
    bonds, the fraudsters claim that the World Bank, IMF and even the
    Federal Reserve bank back the so called ‘prime debt’ and claim that
    the banks trade in such debt at deep discounts to help finance
    stricken Third World countries and other worthy causes. according to
    court documents.

    Common characteristics of a ‘prime bank instrument’ contract include
    overly complex language. The fraudsters claim that annual returns
    could range from 12 per cent to 200 per cent because of high income
    and potential capital appreciation.

    Documents display large investor lists of attorneys and accountants
    that fraudsters claim to be investors. The victims become part of
    a ‘select group’ of investors and they must keep their unusual deal
    secret.

    The fraudsters tend to operate as a worldwide network of contacts
    and partners who provide each other with essential services, such as
    rapid transfer of funds to off-shore accounts.

    After selling the investor the fraudulent, worthless high yield
    paper, members of the network shift the investment rapidly from
    account to account and country to country. Investors wishing to
    retrieve their investments when they find that their promised
    profits aren’t forthcoming, have to trace their money through many
    international and secret bank accounts.

    The labyrinth of offshore accounts and entities makes the chase
    futile for the original investors.

    When they try and recover money lost from one of the fraudsters,
    other members of the fraud network come into play.

    They claim that the person investors are attempting to hold
    responsible is also a ‘victim’.

    In any event there are no longer any funds in the account because
    the money has moved on.

    Fraudulent operators sometimes encourage investors to sue financial
    institutions that have handled their funds. In this way, scammers
    shift the blame on to financial institutions. When the fraud is
    unravelled the embarrassed bank sometimes settles and doesn’t take
    legal action against the fraudsters because it fears bad publicity,
    say the court documents.

    The Coming Category 5 Financial Hurricane.

    The tragic scenes of abject poverty in New Orleans revealed on
    national TV by Katrina’s destruction were real eye-openers for
    many. These scenes prompted two emotional reactions. One side
    claims Katrina proved there was not enough government welfare, and
    its distribution was based on race. The other side claims we need
    to pump billions of new dollars into the very federal agency that
    failed (FEMA), while giving it extraordinary new police powers.
    Both sides support more authoritarianism, more centralization, and
    even the imposition of martial law in times of natural disasters.

    There is no hint that we will resort to reason now that the failed
    welfare policies of the past 60 years have been laid bare.
    Certainly no one has connected the tragedy of poverty in New Orleans
    to the flawed monetary system that has significantly contributed to
    the impoverishment of a huge segment of American society.

    Congress reacted to Katrina in the expected irresponsible manner.
    It immediately appropriated over $60 billion with little planning or
    debate. Taxes won’t be raised to pay the bill– fortunately. There
    will be no offsets or spending reductions to pay the bill. Welfare
    and entitlement spending is sacrosanct. Spending for the war in
    Iraq and the military-industrial complex is sacrosanct. There is no
    guarantee that gracious foreign lenders will step forward,
    especially without raising interest rates. This means the Federal
    Reserve and Treasury will print the money needed to pay the bills.
    The sad truth is that monetary debasement hurts poor people the most-
    – the very people we saw on TV after Katrina. Inflating our
    currency hurts the poor and destroys the middle class, while
    transferring wealth to the ruling class. This occurs in spite of
    good intentions and misplaced compassion.

    We face a coming financial crisis. Our current account deficit is
    more than $600 billion annually. Our foreign debt is more than $3
    trillion. Foreigners now own over $1.4 trillion of our Treasury and
    mortgage debt. We must borrow $3 billion from foreigners every
    business day to maintain our extravagant spending. Our national
    debt now is increasing $600 billion per year, and guess what, we
    print over $600 billion per year to keep the charade going. But
    there is a limit and I’m fearful we’re fast approaching it.

    Runaway inflation is a well-known phenomenon. It leads to political
    and economic chaos of the kind we witnessed in New Orleans.
    Hopefully we’ll come to our senses and not allow that to happen.
    But we’re vulnerable and we have only ourselves to blame. The
    flawed paper money system in existence since 1971 has allowed for
    the irresponsible spending of the past 30 years. Without a linkage
    to gold, Washington politicians and the Federal Reserve have no
    restraints placed on their power to devalue our money by merely
    printing more to pay the bills run up by the welfare-warfare state.

    This system of money is a big contributing factor in the exporting
    of American jobs, especially in the manufacturing industries.

    Since the last link to gold was severed in 1971, the dollar has lost
    92% of its value relative to gold, with gold going from $35 to $450
    per ounce.

    Major adjustment of the dollar and the current account deficit can
    come any time, and the longer the delay the greater the distortions
    will be in terms of a correction.

    In the meantime we give leverage to our economic competitors and our
    political adversaries, especially China.

    The current system is held together by a false confidence in the
    U.S. dollar that is vulnerable to sudden changes in the economy and
    political events.

    My suggestion to my colleagues: Any new expenditures must have
    offsets greater in amount than the new programs. Foreign military
    and foreign aid expenditures must be the first target. The Federal
    Reserve must stop inflating the currency merely for the purpose of
    artificially lowering interest rates to perpetuate a financial
    bubble. This policy allows government and consumer debt to grow
    beyond sustainable levels, while undermining incentives to save.
    This in turn undermines capital investment while exaggerating
    consumption. If this policy doesn’t change, the dollar must fall
    and the current account deficit will play havoc until the house of
    cards collapses.

    Our spending habits, in combination with our flawed monetary system,
    if not changed will bring us a financial whirlwind that will make
    Katrina look like a minor storm. Loss of confidence in the dollar
    and the international financial system is a frightening possibility–
    but it need not happen if Congress can curb its appetite for buying
    the people’s support through unrestrained spending.

    If Congress does not show some sense of financial restraint soon, we
    can expect the poor to become poorer; the middle class to become
    smaller; and the government to get bigger and more authoritarian–
    while the liberty of the people is diminished. The illusion that
    deficits, printing money, and expanding the welfare and warfare
    states serves the people must come to an end.



    hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm………??
