151007 – Not About Politics?

Today’s Items:

U.S. Bombs Doctors

A hospital, in Afghanistan, was manned by Doctors Without Borders until the U.S. bombed the hospital blowing 12 medics and 9 patients to bits. Sadly, the U.S. military has a long and disturbing history of destroying the wrong targets; so that, U.S. corporations can win lucrative contracts to rebuild them.

Russia Destroying ISIS

Shocking international observers, within a short few days, Russians are obliterating a now panicked ISIS. So, the question is… When Obama claimed that the U.S. bombing campaign in Syria had been a success as ISIS grew stronger, was he referring to the U.S. Military forced to wear green Islamic badges or his ISIS buddies?

Debt Trap

Global debt went from $25 trillion in 1990 to $225 trillion today. According to Egon von Greyerz, governments are desperately considering how to save themselves from a catastrophic debt trap leading to massive sovereign defaults.

Cashing Out

The war on cash continues as the average cost for using an automated teller machine that isn’t tied to a customer’s bank rose to a record $4.52 per transaction over the past year. The rate reflects an increase of 21% over the past five years. This may not be a direct capital control, but it sure looks like it.

Lawyer Up?

Guess who is being advised to retain a criminal defense attorney for mishandling classified information? Yep! Hillary Clinton’s legal adviser for more than 30 years has concerns that the FBI e-mail investigation could go in a very dangerous direction very quickly. He goes on to say that Hillary’s public comments insulting career federal investigators is a very bad strategy indeed.

Not About Politics?

According to officials at the White House, Obama will be traveling to meet and console the victims in Oregon and no public remarks are expected. What could possibly be “consoling” about having a lying, arrogant, narcissistic jackass visit? In other words, the visit will likely be totally political on the topic of gun control. So, a question…. Will he be reading a script or off a teleprompter?
