THIS WEEK IN REVIEW

Portugal: Promises mean nothing in the financial world. When the Novo Bank became bankrupt, instead of letting it fail like any other mismanaged business, the government allowed it to simply declare its bonds to be null and void. Those who thought banks could be trusted and that governments would enforce contracts, simply had their investments legally stolen. The government claimed that it was against the bank’s decision but did nothing to stop it or punish the thieves who are, after all, their partners. ZeroHedge 2016 Jan 15 (Story) (Cached)

The British government is assisting the Saudis in their attacks in Yemen. Adel al-Jubeir, the Saudi foreign minister, says that British officers are in Saudi operation control rooms.

The UK is facing a multi-billion dollar lawsuit by a group called The Campaign Against the Arms Trade for selling arms to the Saudis. The British have admitted that its military advises the Saudi forces but that it runs a “quick check” to make sure that there are no humanitarian violations in the attacks on Yemen. The facts are that more than 6,000 people have been killed in Yemen by Saudi attacks in less than a year, and at least half of them were civilians. Even hospitals have been bombed in spite of the fact that the Saudis were given the coordinates of their exact locations. RT 2016 Jan 13 (Story)

US: 46 states sold tickets for the $1.58 billion powerball lottery, with promises that the proceeds would go to schools and education. However, in nineteen states, the money goes into the general fund. The claim about helping education is totally false. CBS News 2016 Jan 14 (Story)

Seven people are dead after a series of explosions and gunfire near a shopping mall in Jakarta. The identity of the attackers is not known. [But something is strange. Look closely at the video clip showing the explosion near Starbucks and you will see a man seated on the ground. He is very close to the explosion in the bushes but does not even flinch when it occurs. There is a plume of smoke but no evidence of destruction. We don’t know what this means, but are inclined to think that this explosion may have been from a large firecracker rather than a bomb, and that the man could have been the one who set it off. What do you think?] ABC News 2016 Jan 14 (Story)

Turkey: Ten German tourists are killed and others injured by a suicide bomber in Istanbul’s Sultanahmet Square. No terrorist groups have boasted responsibility for the attack, but Western media is reporting that it was done by ISIS. It is in the best interest of the Turkish government to blame ISIS because that provides an excuse to raid Syria and Iraq, the PKK. CNN 2016 Jan 14 (Story)

The Baltic Dry Index tracks rates for ships carrying industrial commodities between countries, and it slumped to an all-time low this week. That’s because the demand for shipping has fallen off the charts. The significance of this is that consumer demand and production are at all-time lows, which is another way of saying the global economy is in depression even though politicians and media pundits refuse to say it.

The global bond bubble has grown by more than $20 trillion since 2008. Today it is larger than $100 trillion, with an additional $555 trillion in derivatives trading on top of that. $555 trillion is more than seven times global GDP and more than ten times the Credit Default Swap market that triggered the 2008 financial crisis.

Iraq: The US dropped two 2,000-pound bombs on a financial building in the city of Mosul. The stated purpose was to destroy several millions in cash that was controlled by ISIS. The media is saying that this proves a stronger US stance against ISIS, but we cannot ignore the fact that several million dollars is a mere token compared to the many millions per day that are derived from oil sales and financial support from America’s allies, the Saudis and the Turks. [The suspicion lingers that this bombing may be for show. In fact, there is no confirmation that the money was destroyed or even that it was there in the first place.] CNN 2016 Jan 11 (Story)

Yemen: Four people were killed when a hospital run by Doctors Without Borders was bombed for the third time in three months.

RECHARGE
Aging is linked to shortening of telomeres, the tips of chromo-somes found in all cells.Every time cells replace themselves, telomeres become shorter. Eventually, they become so short that chromosomes are damaged and cells no longer can regenerate. Aging is the result. RECHARGE holds the promise of reversing that process. (More)

FREEDOM IN ONE LESSON
A Discourse by G. Edward Griffin.Agents of a just state derive authority solely from the citizens they serve. That means the state may use physical force to do only those things that individual citizens may use force to do, which is the defense of life, liberty, and property - nothing more. The state, therefore, must be purely defensive, not creative or aggressive, in all that it does. Freedom flows from that. DVD (More)

TAKE BACK YOUR POWER
The 2013 NSA spying scandal exposed vast programs to monitor personal phone calls and emails. Now governments and utility companies are working together to reach into homes by means of so-called "smart meters" and data-harvesting devices.

WORLD WITHOUT CANCER

The Story of Vitamin B17 G. Edward Griffin marshals evidence that cancer is a deficiency disease, like scurvy or pellagra, caused by the lack of an essential food factor in modern man's diet. That substance is amygdalin, also known as vitamin B17 or Laetrile. Why has orthodox medicine rejected this concept? The answer is to be found, not in science, but in politics ‒ the economic agenda of those who dominate the medical industry. (More)

GLOBAL WARMING AND GLOBAL FEUDALISM
A discourse by G. Edward Griffin.Griffin fields questions about the UN, global warming, and how these topics are tied together. Is the UN our last best hope for peace or global feudalism? Who controls the UN? What is Agenda 21? Is population-control justified to save the planet? Is the UN's report on global warming based on science or politics? If the mission of the World Health Organization is not world health, then what is it? (More)

REMOVE CHLORINE FROM YOUR SHOWER

It is common for health-conscious families to install chlorine-removal filters in their kitchens, but we absorb more chlorine through our skin when taking a bath than we do from drinking water. That's because the body's skin surface is larger than the intestinal surface and because the lungs, too, are efficient absorbers, and we inhale a substantial amount of chlorine gas while bathing.

BLUE
We are told that human activity is threatening the Earth. The 'green' response is to sacrifice freedom, living standards, and property rights to save the planet. This is not a sustainable solution because it ends in human servitude to the state. The real agenda is not conservancy of nature, but political control over people. The new Green is merely the old Red. BLUE exposes this subversive agenda. (More)

The way to treat these diseases is not to attack the symptoms with toxic drugs but to restore the missing nutrients. This book shows how to do that. (More)
