"These moves underscore the extreme sense of urgency at the Fed,'' said David M. Jones, a former New York Fed economist who has written four books on the central bank. "It seems unlikely the measures taken so far will calm the market down, but eventually they will stabilize the market.''

Fed Cuts Discount Rate, Lends More to Avert Meltdown
 

 Left: A very stable and sustainable economy 

It appears to me that the plan is to try "everything," and then throw up their hands and "confess" to be unable to save the economy, thus "requiring" fascist measures.  I can almost see the made-for-TV gatherings of "wise men" (Bush will be kept far away) pleading ignorance of solutions, claiming that we're in "uncharted waters" or some such lies.  The scripts have been written for years, and call for someone with experience at just this sort of thing - Michael Bloomberg.

An article entitled Nafha Society: "100 detainees under interrogation in Al Jalama prison, abused and isolated”  offers the usual cover-story for Satanism in the military: "interrogation."  But those who think will realize that Israel's use of such "interrogation" as part of ITS "war on terror" (a reign of terror against Palestinians, and indirectly, Israelis) undermines the claims that it's effective, because their "war on terror" has been going for decades.

The Fed is essentially a tool of private bankers, which has been illegally granted the power to issue money, a power which properly belongs to the federal government.  By issuing vast amounts of money to "save" the banks by paying off their gambling-debts, they are essentially stealing what value remains in dollar-denominated assets.  This will destroy the economy, the nation, and the banks - that is their ultimate goal. 

The only way to save the banks is to declare their bogus debt to be null and void, and to force them to start acting sanely again.  The Fed should be nationalized and forced to serve American interests, not those of its enemies.

In 'Signs of torture' you can't imagine, CNN essentially waves what amounts to evidence of Satanism under our noses, while acting as if it's not important to know who is responsible for such monstrous acts, or their motive. 

It has been well established that torture does not provide reliable intelligence except in the TV series 24, where Islamic-terrorist cartoon characters constantly scheme to unleash weapons of mass destruction upon the American public.  In real life, the "Islamic terrorists" work for our government, which has been feverishly working over the past 45 years or so to dismantle our physical economy, build a gargantuan debt-bomb (which LaRouche recently claimed is on the order of hundreds of quadrillions of dollars) and unleash it upon us in the form of hyperinflation.  So, the monster(s) behind the torture must have known that their victim would say anything to end the pain, and obtaining information could not have been their goal.

So, was the motive, as I've read elsewhere, to "send a message?"  Wouldn't that require someone to know the identity of the monsters, and wouldn't that allow our military to "git 'em?"  Yeah, right.

This still leaves the most likely motive - either the sort of SRA that must immediately precede possession in even the most "resistant" cases, or a case of someone who has already become possessed having "his" idea of fun. 

Facing death with a relatively clear conscience is bad enough.  But facing it after committing such torture, not knowing whether that crap Satan feeds his suckers is true (just that few if any who pursued "wizardry" ever made it), or whether there is some sort of cosmic justice that can't be rigged - that must be terrifying.

SILVER SPRING, Maryland, Mar 14 (IPS) - Hart Viges joined the U.S. Army the day after Sep. 11, 2001, in the belief that he could help make the world a safer place.

The term "haji" is used by U.S. soldiers in Iraq to degrade and dehumanise the Iraqi people.

Viges, like others who spoke, said that U.S. troops routinely detained innocent people during home raids.

"We never went on the right raid where we got the right house, much less the right person -- not once," he said.

US/IRAQ: "We Reacted Out of Fear, and With Total Destruction"  by Dahr Jamail

(Unless you assume that the purpose of the raids was to inflict terror and suffering and cause hatred, that is - in which case, you got the right place every time.  Why else would such an "ineffective" policy be continued so long?)

"NEW YORK - Trying to calm jitters about the economy, President Bush conceded on Friday that the country "obviously is going through a tough time" but expressed confidence that it will rebound. He cautioned against overreacting to fix the problems."

Witnesses: 7 Iraqis Injured in US Raid

Meanwhile, in Iraq, witnesses say at least seven Iraqis were wounded Tuesday in a US raid on Sadr City. A witness said US forces had fired randomly.

Witness: “We are peaceful families. We were sleeping inside our houses when the US forces attacked us. They attacked our houses, families and children. They hurt us. They bombed our houses randomly.”

At least five Iraqis were reportedly arrested in the raid.  [To be "interrogated" for the next five years for "timely intelligence."]

Give Petraeus a couple of days, and I'm sure he'll come up with a "success story" to prove that we really have good intentions.

It appears to me that the focus on waterboarding is intended to convince us that it's the worst thing that the CIA does.  But consider what it, or its surrogates, did to Jose Padilla - they destroyed his mind and turned him into a "piece of furniture."  Based on many anecdotal accounts, the sorts of things that destroyed Padilla's mind are common practice at Gitmo and the black sites.  According to General Hayden, waterboarding is a rare occurrence, although it's possible that even he is being kept in the dark about how often it's really used.  But we know that the various varieties of "no touch torture" are widely and frequently used (but meanwhile Al Qaeda, the far greater evil that justifies our destruction of entire nations, has supposedly - based on debatable evidence - been torturing children, and probably puppies, for years right under the noses of our military in Iraq - none the wiser for all of its "interrogation"), and I suspect that these are the practices which Bush really wanted to protect with his veto.

Besides destroying minds, such "interrogation" practices, and the practice of abducting Islamic men from anywhere on the planet, destroying them, and sometimes dumping them in the middle of nowhere because "we got the wrong guy," is intended to terrorize every Muslim on the planet.  They then become susceptible for recruitment by "Al Qaeda," which has been shown to be a US-UK "black op" whose purpose is to play the part of the phantom menace which is everywhere, but nowhere, and somehow usually manages to escape just before we bomb their hideouts (or something a few yards away to demonstrate how precisely we can miss), killing women, children and puppies. 

The most important thing is to keep the "apocalypse" going - if for nothing else, to prevent stability and economic cooperation between nations in the region, such as to build the Eurasian Land-Bridge championed by LaRouche, who calls this "Britain's Operation Chaos."   We're in Iraq to "git the terrists," and "the terrists" are there to get us, supposedly.  In fact, "both sides" are two sides of the same CIA coin, and the only ones dying or otherwise being destroyed are the CIA's enemies - humans, including US soldiers, with hearts and minds of their own.  Why do you think it's called the Central INTELLIGENCE Agency?  To PROTECT our freedom?  Ha!  It seeks to eradicate, as in Padilla's case, our very ability to BE free.  This "apocalypse" is intended to turn Earth into a vast concentration camp for mankind.  For more along these lines, see my page Big Brother's Neighborhood.

I might be seeing patterns where none exist, but it seems to me that whenever Bush is in some pitched battle with Congress over legislation, that there is some sort of violence at some college.  In the latest case, two young women were shot to death in what police assure us were unconnected cases of random violence.  In other words, Congressmen/women, it could happen to your kids, too, and be blamed on "random violence."  Be terrified - just not terrorized.  Oh, and have we reminded you lately that we've gotten away with the JFK hit for the last 45 years?
