MEDIA + GOV = “THE QUICK SLIDE FROM HOPE TO DESPAIR AS WAR RETURNS”

MEDIA + GOV = “THE QUICK SLIDE FROM HOPE TO DESPAIR AS WAR RETURNS”

“The Quick Slide From Hope to Despair As War Returns–If It Ever Went Away” by Danny Schechter Tuesday, 23 September 2014 on The Real News Network

Click for Source Article on THE REAL NEWS NETWORK

News Dissector Danny Schechter blogs daily at Newsdissector.net and edits Mediachannel.org. He wrote two books and made a film about the Iraq war.

300,000 demand climate justice with marches of solidarity and positivity.

UN prepared for its global climate summit with more than 100 Heads of State, some there as ornaments, others as advocates for changes in environmental conditions that threaten the survival of many nations and peoples.

U.S. Secretary of State Kerry called climate change Washington’s number  #1 priority.

Visiting President of South Africa marked twenty years of freedom in that country after the overthrow of apartheid with NOT ONE American official present.

SAME TIME ALL THAT WAS HAPPENING USA began heavily bombing Syria with the support of a mélange of Arab dictators and theocracies, using planes we sold them, to make some point about western commitment to freedom.

SITE = Israeli Propaganda Source = Plays ALL Jihadists videos vowing retribution – no doubt to frighten us more.

USA claims support from 40 nations. 

The Christian Science Monitor reports, “Americans can be forgiven if this reminds them of the “coalition of the willing” President GW Bush claimed to have when the US invaded and occupied Iraq 11 years ago.”

BIG OIL MONARCHS?  Political scientist Michael Brenner:  “… the so-called “coalition of the willing” will not amount to much…So long as no regional states are prepared to send in competent troops, their military role will be marginal at best. In regard to drying up IS’ supply of recruits from places beyond Syria and Iraq, the prospects are not promising.”

AMAZING = How fast we’ve moved from peace to war, from hope to despair.
USA MSM about US military action = NO mention of civilian casualties or other “collateral damage.” 

USA Press marches in lockstep with the Pentagon that the strikes were surgical, hit their targets = released video to show how bad and powerful USA claims to be.
NYT to its credit, called the attacks “risky” and reported that “after six weeks of western air support in Iraq, Iraqi forces have barely budged Islamic State fighters.”

USA GOV = REFUSES TO EXPOSE THE $BILLIONS IN COST THE AMERICAN  MIDDLE CLASS IS FORCED TO PAY!

Political calculation by Obama driving the return to war on ISIS(L) to REVIVE HIS PRESIDENCY, as revealed by Politico:

“With his new offensive against Islamic State terrorists in Syria, Barack Obama has a chance to revive his presidency, but the only way he can do that is to become a brand-new president, one who will be almost unrecognizable to his supporters. Obama must go from being the president who was elected to end wars—his most treasured self-image—to the president who finally leads one effectively. And he must now do it in two countries where for most of his presidency he has most resisted getting more deeply involved—Iraq and Syria.”
Michael Brenner: The Commander is Chief seems to be glowing as he and his “team” reach into an overused playbook:

USA does “what it’s accustomed to doing…employing military assets (that) carries a heavy liability…radicalizing…innocent or relatives of combatants…troops on the ground…the negative effect is magnified…USA again killing Muslims…After a decade of killing (many Sunni) Muslims with no good cause, the claim the USA is now killing them with cause is less than wholly persuasive.”

MORE PROPAGANDA = As the bombs fell, another video began airing, lacking the overproduction ISIS(L) Hollywood glitz, but, instead, a simple stripped down “lecture” by British hostage John Cantlie saying his government abandoned him. = Lecture point is that most of our media has not had the guts to say, “how the Western Governments are hastily marching towards all-out war in Iraq and Syria without paying any heed to the lessons of the recent past.” + “Not since Vietnam have we witnessed such a potential mess in the making.”

Vietnamese-American filmmaker, Tiana, is finishing a film on Vietnam’s victorious General Giap who held off USA +  FRENCH invaders and turned the tide against them. – With 500,000 deaths among the French forces, including civilians and the African people the French brought to fight to defend colonialism + US 60,000 LOST American lives. — USA escalation in Vietnam came during the Presidency of a “liberal” Democrat  like NOW by Nobel Peace Prize Winner Barack Obama = Like Henry Kissinger who MASSIVELY ORDERED THE MURDER OF CAMBODIANS — His VIETNAMESE counterpart, negotiator Le Duc Tho, rejected and denounced the Prize as MEANINGLESS.

USA = Loves Playing into the SAUDI-FUNDED ISIS(L) script of a propaganda war, not just a military conflict — To influence GET THE REGIONAL DOMINATION BY BIG OIL MONARCHS WAHABISM WITH VIOLENCE AND MURDER TO PROTECT THEM in the Arab World.

FACT:  Ordinary Iraqi people report GOV troops are more brutal to them than ISIS.

FACT:  Americans ignore Iraqi realities DON’T know we lost the war.  

FACT:  USA Actions do produce reactions. Always have; always will. More Americans will die as things get worse over the ENDLESS USA WAR HORIZON.
Today, ISIS (IS) poses as liberators of humiliated Sunnis by USA PUPPETS.  USA Bombardment conjures up bad memories for Iraqis and stiffer resistance to DOMINATION BY THE WEST.

FACT:  USA BUILDS NOTHING CONSTRUCTIVE FOR ITS OWN PEOPLE AT HOME BUT BOMBS THE HELL OUT OF MUSLIMS AND MURDERS HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF THEM!

MSM mentions climate change at the UN, but is showing pictures of bombs bursting in air, and changing the global conversation about a planet in peril that the world has been waiting for.

UNFORTUNATELY, AIPAC-ISRAEL-WALL STREET RUNS USA FOREIGN POLICY! = OWN A 95% MISTRUSTED CONGRESS!

USA will soon be back into flag-saluting abyss of paranoia, with predictable results.

PETRODOLLAR (OLD SAUDI + BIG OIL MONARCHS PRIMITIVES) VERSUS EURASIA AND NEW SILK ROAD

PETRODOLLAR (OLD SAUDI + BIG OIL MONARCHS PRIMITIVES) VERSUS EURASIA AND NEW SILK ROAD

SILK ROUTE

NEW SILK ROAD and LINKING OF EURASIA

“The March to War: Fighting ISIL is a Smokescreen for US Mobilization against Syria, Iran” by Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya, Global Research, Sept 26, 2014

ISIS(L) WAR = Smokescreen to Destroy and Splinter Syria, Iraq, and Iran into weak FAILED STATES for CORPORATE Extraction and Banker Domination + Extract Wealth from American Middle Class and Transfer Wealth to 425 MULTINATIONAL $BILLIONAIRES + HUNDREDS of $1 to 2 Million/CRUISE TOMAHAWK MISSILES and $BILLIONS/DAY MORE TO MIC + PROTECT THE BANKSTER SCAMS and the SAGGING PETRODOLLAR!

Click for Superb Source Article on Global Research

PETRODOLLAR SCAMS = NEED FAKED WARS TO PROP THEM UP!

PETRODOLLAR GREED = IS DESTROYING THE PLANET AND SYRIA!

USA+SAUDI ARABIA = PETRODOLLAR = SAUDI-WAHABI OVERWHELMING VIOLENCE AND MURDER CREATES THE ORCHESTRATED TERROR AND USA CREATES THE FAKED WARS.  FAKED WARS ARE ONLY WAY TO KEEP CRASHING PETRODOLLARS PROPPED UP!

US MSM Exaggerates strength of the ISIS(L) to inflated Middle Class willingness to fund the MIC-Pentagon WARS + Justify the illegal bombing of Syria + Justify a large-scale US-led military buildup in the Middle East — More firepower beyond ISIS(L) to Destroy Syria and Iran.

US GOV = Assured Americans “NO USA BOOTS ON THE GROUND” but already 1,600 USA Troops are on the ground to monitor and select targets and promises YEARS OF WARS or a permanent military deployment.

MIC + AIPAC + WALL STREET + GOP-McCAIN = USA GOV = WANTS Permanent Military Establishment in MIDDLE EAST that likely will morph into a broader assault force threatening Syria, Iran, Lebanon, and Russia.

FAKED USA COOPERATION DIALOG = With Damascus through Russian and Iraqi channels = Part of a sinister series of USA misinformation and disinformation + Similar claims were made about Iranian cooperation in Iraq. = USA MSM tried to give the impression that military cooperation was made with Tehran to fight ISIS(L) = Was widely refuted by numerous Iranian officials.

FAKED USA COOPERATION DIALOG = After Iranians rejected USA then USA MSM said US claimed that it would not be appropriate for Iran to join its anti-ISIS(L) coalition. Iran rebutted saying USA was dishonestly misrepresenting the facts, because US officials had asked Tehran to join the anti-ISIL coalition several times. = US ambassador to Iraq + John Kerry said on camera to world they want Iran to cooperate with them but Dr. Zarif ++ US Undersecretary Wendy Sherman. Khamenei additionally made it clear that he ruled out cooperation with USA because their hands are dirty — USA has ill intentions and nefarious designs in Iraq and Syria.

PETRODOLLAR THREATENED = Russia, Iran, Syria,  and Iraq are against ISIS(L) but will not joined with USA’s anti-ISIS(L) coalition that wants New Invasion(s) and Regime Change because of Syrian Pipeline to Europe = Eurasia Project that Threatens Petrodollar SCAMMING AND FRAUD!

2014 June 20 USA forces Al-Malaki to resign because he refused to join the US siege against the Syrians.

PETRODOLLAR THREATENED = Al-Malaki’s Iraq was aligned with Iran to sell oil to the Chinese, and buy weapons from the Russian Federation — To be part of the Iran-Iraq-Syria pipeline to supply Europe = Eurasian integration = But that undermines the PETRODOLLAR objectives of the US and its allies to control the flow of energy in the Middle East.  So USA said Malaki had to go.

USA found two other unforgivable Makaki sins = Bush NEOCON WAR MONGERS said “Anyone can go to Baghdad, but real men go to Tehran!”  Baghdad and Damascus (IRAQ + SYRIA) are the pathways to TAKING IRAN.  Malaki was blocking that path by evicting the Pentagon from Iraq end of 2011– Removed all US troops.

USA’s 2nd Reason for getting rid of Malaki was he wanted to expel anti-government Iranian militants from Iraq and to close Camp Ashraf.  USA wanted that Iranian Border Camp to use in a war for Iranian regime change.  Camp Ashraf was a base for Anti-Iranian MEK Organization in Iraqi called Mujahidin-e-Khalq (MEK/MOK/MKO) who want to TOPPLE IRAN.

Scott Peterson, Christian Science Monitor, Istanbul bureau chief says “US officials began to really put their weight behind the MEK during the start of the Arab Spring in 2011.” = USA’s regime change dreams.

Scott Peterson = Wrote US officials (LIE to Americans) rarely mention the MEK’s violent and anti-American past, and portray the group not as terrorists but as freedom fighters with ‘values just like us,’ as democrats-in-waiting ready to serve as a vanguard of regime change in Iran.

USA Has Not Abandoned Dreams of ANOTHER Regime Change in Tehran = SHAH! NO coincidence that US and EU support the MEK TOPPLING of IRAN, especially when the ISIS(L) threat in Iraq began to be noticed publicly?

600 Parliamentarians and politicians from mostly NATO countries were flown in for a large MEK gathering in the Parisian northeastern suburb of Villepinte that called for regime change in Iran on June 27, 2014.

Warmongers and morally bankrupt figures met with MEK to promote regime change and ENDLESS WARS — Supporters of the insurgencies in Iraq and Syria:

Former US senator Joseph Lieberman
Israeli mouthpiece and apologist Alan Dershowitz
JOHN BOLTON = Former Bush II official and Fox News pundit
Rudy Giuliani = Most hated mayor in NYC history that used 9ll to survive.
French former minister Bernard Kouchner

Effectively lobbyists for the Mujahidine-MEK. MEK said 80,000 people attended the rally for regime change in Iraq, Syria, and Iran — like they did in Libya.

Irony is the money for the event likely came from the US government itself + BIG OIL MONARCH — SO CALLED ALLIES that funded 9ll.

These former high-ranking US officials = Paid $10s or $100s of Thousands to speak support for Mujahidine-MEK according to the Christian Science Monitor.

Giuliani 2010 TO 2014 = Publicly pushed for regime change in Tehran and Damascus at Mujahidine-MEK gatherings. = “We need regime change in Iran, more than we do in Egypt or Libya, and just as we need it in Syria.”

Joe Lieberman (fellow war monger of McCain) addressed the regime change Mujahidine-MEK gathering via video.

Congressman Edward Royce, the chair of the US House Foreign Affairs Committee, also showed his support for regime change in Iran through a video message to Mujahidine-MEK.

Senator Carl Levin supported for regime change in Iran through a video message to Mujahidine-MEK.

Senator Robert Melendez also supported for regime change in Iran through a video message to Mujahidine-MEK.

Mujahidine-MEK = Had Large War Mongering delegations from US, France, Spain, Canada.

2014 June 27 Mujahidine-MEK attendees to OVERTHROW SYRIA AND IRAN — Fox News gave the event special coverage — included:

Newt Gingrich
Howard Dean, the former governor of Vermont
John Dennis Hastert
Michael B. Mukasey, a former attorney-general of the US;
George William Casey Jr., Former CIA
Hugh Shelton, Computer software executive + former chairman of US Joint Chiefs
James Conway, the former chief of the US Marine Corps
Louis Freeh, former director of the FBI
Lloyd Poe, US House REP on Subcommittees on Emerging Threats/Terrorism
Daniel Davis, a US Representative from Illinois
Loretta Sánchez, a US Representative from California
Linda Chavez, a former chief White House director
William Richardson, the former secretary of the US Department of Energy
Robert Torricelli, Former USA senator who legally represents MEK in Iraq
Francis Townsend, former Homeland Security advisor to GW Bush Jr.;
Robert Joseph, former US undersecretary of Bureau of Arms Control
Philip Crowley, former assistant-secretary of state in public affairs
David Phillips, restructured the Iraqi police
Marc Ginsberg, Senior VP of public relations firm APCO + Former US ambassador
Alexander Carile, member of British House of Lords

FRENCH SUPPORT FOR Mujahidine-MEK present at MEK in June 2014:

Bernard Kouchner
Michèle Alliot-Marie, responsible for the military and foreign affairs
Rama Yade, vice president of the conservative Radical Party of France
Gilbert Mitterrand, President of the human rights foundation for Kurds
Martin Vallton, the mayor of Villepinte

Spain notable Mujahidine-MEK attendees were the following:

Pedro Agramunt Font de Mora, Spanish chair of European People’s Party (EPP)
Jordi Xucla, Spanish chair of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe
Alejo Vidal-Quadras, one of the fourteen VPs of the European Union’s Parliament
José Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, former prime minister of Spain

Other notable Mujahidine-MEK attendees:

Pandli Majko, the former prime minster of Albania
Kim Campbell, the former prime minister of Canada
Geir Haarde, the former prime minister of Iceland
Ingrid Betancourt, a former Colombian senator
Giulio Maria Terzi, the former foreign minister of Italy
Adrianus Melkert, former Dutch cabinet minister + World Bank executive

Mujahidine-MEK talked regime change + Condemned Iranian support for Iraq in fight against ISIS(L).

Since USA BOMBINGS STARTED = Mujahidine-MEK is silent

MEK’s leader Maryam Rajavi who MEK calls designated President of Iran since 1993 — Rajavi and SNC leader Ahmed Jarba meet to discuss cooperating for regime change in Tehran and Damascus.

USA + NEOCON AIPAC GOALS = Regime Change in Damascus through Mission Creep in Syria

USA bombing of Syria is illegal and a violation of the UN Charter so USA invented KHORASAN to try to make it legal

Sept 25, 2014 — KHORASAN GROUP CALLED BY BROOKINGS INSTITUTE “THE WORST TERRORISTS IN THE WORLD … FAR WORSE THAN ISIS(L)” = DEBUNKED BY FBI’s JAMES COMEY SAYING KHORASAN “MAY HAVE BEEN JUST MADE UP BY USA INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY.” AFTER ALL THE HYPE AND BULL CHIOT FEAR TACTICS BY BROOKINGS INSTITUTE! =Brookings is TOTALLY DISCREDITED BY FBI!

sept 25, 2014 — khorasan group called by Brookings institute “the worst terrorists in the world … far worse than ISIS(l)” = debunked by FBI’s James Comey saying khorasan “may have been just made up by USA intelligence community.” after all the hype and bull crap fear tactics by Brookings institute! = Brookings is totally discredited by FBI!

USA TRIED TO MAKE SYRIAN BOMBING LEGAL = USA Pentagon had to claim US-led Syrian Bombing was prompted by the threat of an”imminent” attack on USA = Warped argument under Article 51 of the UN Charter that allows a UN member to legally attack another country if an imminent attack by the said country is about to take place on the UN member.

US-led BOMBINGS of Syria = Have NO backing of the UN Security Council

FLIP-FLOP = John Kerry mentions Syria violated Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) and also admitted Syria did not use any material prohibited by the CWC.

USA intends to do regime change in Syria + the fact that the USA will use Saudi Arabia (Wahabism OVERWHELMING VIOLENCE AND MURDER) to train more anti-government forces. Saudi Arabia + Qatar FUNDS $3+ BILLION to ISIS(L) TERRORISTS!

USA = Envisions a long-term bombing campaign at $2 MILLION PER MISSILE PAID FOR BY SHRINKING AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS. Bomb both Iraq and Syria using ISIS(L) as a smokescreen like in Pakistan = Af-Pak model of Taliban spillover from Afghanistan into Pakistan as a pretext for bombing Pakistan.

Iraq + Syria = Merged as one conflict zone called “Syraq” by Ibrahim Al-Marashi

USA-SAUDI Petrodollar Broader Objective = Disrupting Eurasian Integration of Russia-China-Iran-Iraq-Syria Trade Route and pipeline(s) Serving OIL to Europe and China using a NEW BRIC’s CURRENCY = USA Pretending to fight ISIS(L) — Saudi Invented and funded like Saudi Arabia who also funded 9ll (15 of 19 hijackers were Saudis) — To stop Eurasia routes, pipelines, and competing currency. The Chinese and their partners have been very busy working to integrate Eurasia — China and Germany via the New Silk Road:

Definition: NEW Silk Road = 1990 was opened with the competition of the Eurasian Land Bridge which was the last link in a railway route along the Old Silk Road from China and Kazakhstan connected in Alataw Pass (Alashan Kou). This railroad line is used for passenger service from Urumqi in China’s Xinjiang to Almaty and Astana in Kazakhstan. 2011 July the route was extended to Duisburg, Germany by freight rail across Eurasia shortening the traditional sea trade routes from China to Europe from 36 days to just 13 days by freight train. 2013 HP was moving large volumes of laptop computers and monitors along this rail route.

USA’s “Global War on Terror” = Runs paralleled to the 1990 opening of the NEW Silk Road with GHW Bush 1991 attack on Saddam in Kuwait = the real beginning of USA motivation to fight and remobilize in the Middle East is to STOP the Eurasia System — Both Trade and Currency competition of a United Eurasia. Ukrainian effort is being done for the reason against Russia — Sanctions on Russian Federation actually encourage the growth of the Eurasia Strengthening.

USA wants to disrupt the New Eurasia (New Silk Road) now expanding trade. While Kerry and USA MSM have been busy frightening American and EU audiences about ISIS(L) atrocities and the NONE EXISTENT Khorasan BS (proved NONEXISTENT), the Chinese have been busy sweeping the map by making deals across Asia, the NEW SILK ROAD, and the Indian Ocean.

As Kerry travels so does Chinese President Xi Jinping with visits to Sri Lanka (Maritime Silk Road project) and the Maldives a newer entry in the New Maritime Silk Road network and infrastructure that China is busy constructing to expand maritime trade between East Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. Parallel to east-west trade, a north-south trade and transport network is being developed.

FACT: Two Chinese destroyers docked at the Iranian port of Bandar Abbas in the Persian Gulf to conduct joint drills with Iranian warships in the Persian Gulf.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani was in Kazakhstan visiting President Nursultan Nazarbayev, to confirm that trade was due to see manifold increases with the completion of the Kazakhstan-Turkmenistan-Iran railway, which will create a north-south transit route. = Cooperation between Tehran and the Eurasian Union was also discussed by the two presidents.

On the other western side of the Caspian Sea, a parallel north-south corridor running from Russia to Iran through the Republic of Azerbaijan has been in the works.

Anti-Russia sanctions are beginning to cause uneasiness in the European Union. The real losers in the sanctions in Russia are the members of the European Union. Russia has demonstrated that it has options. Moscow has already launched the construction of its mega natural gas Yakutia–Khabarovsk–Vladivostok pipeline (also known as the Power of Siberia pipeline) to deliver gas to China while BRICS partner South Africa has signed a historic deal on nuclear energy with Rosatom.

Moscow’s influence on the world stage is very clear. Its influence has been on the rise in the Middle East and Latin America. Even in NATO-garrisoned Afghanistan, Russian influence is on the rise. The Russian government has recently compiled a list of over one hundred old Soviet construction projects that it would like to recuperate.

$70 BILLION EURO = An alternative to US and EU sanctions is beginning to emerge in Eurasia. In addition to the oil-for-goods deal that Tehran and Moscow signed, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak announced that Iran and Russia had made several new agreements worth seventy billion euro. Sanctions are BACKFIRING on the EU and isolated them from future Eurasia Trade.

Iranians announced they are working with Chinese and Russian partners to overcome the US and EU sanctions regime.

America NOW BUSY for YEARS WITH ISIS(L) in Middle East cannot DO THE OBAMA PIVOT to the Asia-Pacific. Many years delay. Meanwhile Russia, Iran, Syria, China and the BRICs are constructively building a NEW WORLD trade and Competing Currency.

USA is feebly doing its best to disrupt, divide, redraw, bargain and co-opt power in the OLD WORLD via ENDLESS WEALTH DRAINING WARS instead of REBUILDING for a NEW GREEN FUTURE with more desirable partners than VILE SAUDI ARABIA and the BIG OIL MONARCHS AND ISRAEL!

Instead USA’s main concern is about preserving its crumbling OLD empire and preventing Eurasian integration and competition.

BANKSTERS’ CRIMINAL IMPRISONMENT PREVENTED AND CRIMINALS WERE PROTECTED BY ERIC HOLDER CRIMES OF OMMISSION

BANKSTERS’ CRIMINAL IMPRISONMENT PREVENTED AND CRIMINALS WERE PROTECTED BY ERIC HOLDER CRIMES OF OMMISSION –  HOLDER FINALLY FOLLOWED LANNY BREUER OUT THE DOOR!

After Eric Holder Resigns, A Look at His Record on Bank Prosecutions – Interview with Bill Black, Famous Financial Regulator, on The Real News Network – Sept 26, 2014

“Forgive me, I must start by pointing out that three years after a H0RRlFlC FlNANClAL CRlSlS caused by fraud, not a singIe FlNANClAL EXECUTlVE has gone to JAlL — and that’s wrong,”

— CharIes H. FERGUS0N as he accepts his 0scar for lnside J0B February 27, 2011 receiving cheers from the crowd.

ERlC HOLDER and Lanny Breuer, head of the DOJ’s CRlMlNAL division, were partners for years at a Washington law firm that represented a Who’s Who of big banks and other companies at the center of FORECLOSURE fraud. SOURCE: Reuters

While HOLDER and Breuer were partners at COVlNGTON, the firm’s cIients included the four largest U.S. banks – BoA, ClTlGROUP, JPM, and WeIIs – as well as at least one other bank that is among the 1O largest MORTGAGE servicers. GOOGLE: Top Justice officials connected to MORTGAGE banks paltrow

Holder’s legacy = PROTECT “too big to fail” and “too big to jail” Bank Criminals

William K. Black, author of The Best Way to Rob a Bank is to Own One, is a Professor in economics and law at the University of Missouri Kansas City (UMKC). During the Savings and Loan Scandal Black he Prosecuted and Convicted 1,100 Financial Criminals.

WlLLlAM BIack- “70”-Times Worse Than S&L FRAUD: 11,OOO WHlTE-COLLAR PROSECUTlONS

He was litigation director of the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, deputy director of the FSLIC, SVP and general counsel of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco. Black developed the concept of “control fraud” frauds in which the CEO or head of state uses the entity as a “weapon.” Control frauds cause greater financial losses than all other forms of property crime combined.

SHARMINI PERIES, EXEC. PRODUCER, TRNN: Resignation of Attorney General Eric Holder whose track record after 2008 Financial Crisis is less a BIG ZERO. Plus Holder’s war on whistleblowers on white-collar crime is so damaging to Democracy.

BILL BLACK, ASSOC. PROF. ECONOMICS AND LAW, UMKC: Holder’s war on whistleblowers and complete strategic failure in the history of the Department of Justice, which I once worked at, against elite white-collar crime epidemics. Holder surprised me by NOT bring at least one token case to prosecute some bank senior executive for crimes that led to the creation of the financial crisis and the global Great Recession. He’s actually going to leave without even a token conviction, or even a token effort at convicting. In baseball terms, he struck out every time, batting 0.000 by never taking a single swing in 6 YEARS.

BLACK: Holder hasn’t done the most elementary things required by DOJ on White-Collar Crimes. = Never reestablished a criminal referral process from the banking regulatory agencies, who do widescale criminal referrals against bank CEOs = We know Banks won’t make criminal referrals against their own CEOs. Amazingly, Holder NEVER reestablished that criminal referral process in a single email on the first day in office to his counterparts in the banking regulatory agencies, and he’s going to leave never having attempted to do so.
BLACK: Added to that amazing incompetence or collusion of NOT having criminal referrals from the agencies, he wiped out Whistleblowers which are the only other conceivable way you’re going to learn about elitists criminal misconduct. Holder and Obama are known for their vicious war against whistleblowers.

BLACK: The public doesn’t know that the three biggest bank cases with NOT a single prosecution of elitist bankers at Citicorp, JPM, and Bank of America, were made possible by whistleblowers. But Eric Holder, Head of Department of Justice at press conferences in each of these three cases never mentioned the role of the whistleblowers and never used those press conferences as a forum for asking whistleblowers to come forward. A Frontline special on this made clear that dozens of whistleblowers came forward, and each of them had the same story: the Department of Justice had never contacted them.

“In reaching every charging decision, we must take into account the effect of an indictment on innocent employees and shareholders, just as we must take into account the nature of the CRlMES committed and the pervasiveness of the misconduct.  I personally feel that it’s my duty to consider whether individual employees with no responsibility for, or knowledge of, misconduct committed by others in the same company are going to lose their livelihood if we indict the corporation.  In large multi-national companies, the jobs of tens of thousands of employees can be at stake.  And, in some cases, the health of an industry or the markets are a real factor.  Those are the kinds of considerations in WHlTE-COLLAR CRlME cases that literally keep me up at night, and which must play a role in responsible enforcement.”

— LANNY BREUER – WALL STREET PUPPET LIKE HOLDER AND WORKING FOR HOLDER IN DOJ

BLACK: Holder NEVER went after the big guys or small White-Collar CEOs. Elitist CEOs of Big Banks caused far greater damage, but Holders NEVER went after all these CEOs of smaller mortgage banks who are not prestigious or politically powerful = NO prosecution of any of them. He did prosecute several hundred mice. = “Holder was chasing mice while lions roam the campsite.”

BLACK: Holder’s most disgraceful point is that he insists mortgage fraud is largely an ethnic crime by ethnic groups, like Russian Americans. A 100% LIE and an obscenity by DOJ which is charged with preventing this kind of discrimination. Not only is DOJ and FBI spreading this absolute lie about ethnic guilt, but they’re following through with disproportionate prosecutions of disfavored minorities = Particularl evil and disgusting thing that will be on the tombstone of Eric Holder when historians write about him.
PERIES: Biggest failures of Holder is he refused to go after the big banks, and very quick negotiated settlements instead of prosecutions.

BLACK: Holder’s negotiating strategy ensured that top bankers had to win the negotiations. They came into the negotiations knowing Holder believed in too-big-to-fail and too-big-to-jail. And that means that, by definition, any civil fine cannot be all that serious compared to the size of the institution, because they’re scared to death of doing anything that could render the capital of that bank insufficient. So you know the fine is going to sound large, but it’s going to be small relative to your capital and no big problem.

BLACK: CEOs know to protect themselves they have to take care of the little people, because if they start pleading guilty, then they seek deals with the prosecutors in which they get immunity and they rat out people above them, and that could eventually lead to you. So you want to make sure not only that you don’t get prosecuted; you want to make sure that even low-level officers don’t get prosecuted. And with Holder being primarily interested in dollar size, he was quite willing to trade off. So you’re the CEO. You control the corporation. And you can trade off a slightly larger fine for complete immunity from prosecution, not only from you, but all of the officers. That makes sure you don’t get prosecuted.

BLACK: Holder prevented US GOV from doing what we call claw back of Bonuses and other Income to STOP fraud. So LOSSES NEVER goes to the bank or shareholders or CEO or senior officers, but THE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS IS LEFT HOLDING THE BAG.

BLACK: Holder and DOJ declare victory from FRACTIONAL FINES on FELONS AND SERIOUS CRIMINALS. The market and OTHER CRIMINALS says, great and the share price of these banks increases immediately after they announce their settlements. FACT is Holder gave away hhis RESPONSIBILITY AND MIDDLE CLASS MONEY AND SAFETY to CRIMINALS. Americans + US GOV have been skinned alive by Holder’s negotiations that THE CRIMINALS RUN FREE WITH A “SMALL COST OF DOINGG FRAUD” Fine. 99+% of Americans have been played for a fool very by Holder and top bankster Criminals.

BLACK: Shareholders were also SHAFTED because these fraud schemes largely steal from shareholders and creditors and make the officers wealthy. + Shareholders were FORCEDD to spend $BILLIONS on the lawyers DEFENDING CEO AND FINANCIAL CRIMINALS + SHAREHOLDERS END UP PAYING THE FINES. Only winners are the LAWYERS and THE CRIMINALS THEY REPRESENT. And the CRIMINAL Senior Officers became wealthy from the frauds and get to keep the fraud proceeds. = 3rd WHAMMY on the shareholders and US MIDDLE CLASS who KNOW MORE FRAUD IS ENCOURAGED by HOLDER’S CRIMINAL APPROACH.

PERIES: Who will likely be appointed as the attorney general next?

BLACK: No one better since Eric Holder because of Obama’s policies = Treasury Policies were Even worse than DOJ’s.

‘The Ray Rice Video For The Financial Sector Has Arrived’ = Massive Banking Violence on 99% of Americans

FACT: AIPAC-WALL STREET RUNS THE GOVERNMENT AND FED RESERVE
FACT USA banking regulators are captured by BIG BANKS they regulate

Michael Lewis referring to Report in ProPublica documenting firing of New York Federal Reserve bank examiner for examining Goldman Sachs too deeply.

Inner workings of Banking = HORROR of Massive Banking Violence on 99% of Americans = 48 hours of secretly taped FED conversations proving bank regulators are terrified of offending Goldman = Lewis calls their “breathtaking wussiness.” = BOWING to Powerful Bankster Crooks.

CAPTURED REGULATORS = ANOTHER BANK CRISIS CAUSED BY SCAMMING

NY FED = DENIES 48 HOURS OF TAPED CONVERSATIONS ARE TRUE = “The New York Fed categorically rejects the allegations being made about the integrity of its supervision of financial institutions.”

Goldman Response to its INCOMPETENT AND CRIMINAL MANAGEMENT AND POLICIES identified in 48 hours of taping. = “mistaken about some key facts”

FACT = ProPublica and This American Life PROVE NY FED bank examiners are feckless and mush-mouthed and afraid when dealing with Goldman.

FACT = REGULATORS ARE CAPTURED BY BANKSTERS AND THAT THREATENS AMERICANS WHO BAILED OUT BANKSTER CROOKS.
