Stacy Summary: In this episode we look at the scandals of Greece winning a loan; the exodus from Iceland while billionaire plunderers receive safe haven in London; and the dumping of US Treasury bonds as American consumers are about to get squished. In the second half of the show, Max talks to Birgitta Jonsdottir, a Member of Parliament in Iceland, about the Black Report into the country’s banking collapse.

@Mademoiselle Maupin – yep; I’m reading this; and I agree that Birgitta is a fantastic guest, thanks!
Re. Soldiers enthusiasticall murdering civilians in Iraq. I had the my hand over the screen – but believe and thank u for not showing the actual shooting. Saw the entire footage last week – will never forget it.
Great work of editing the wikileaks video… I don’t support murder but this is michael moore/fox etc. style… Beside WHAT ABOUT THE MILLION INNOCENT OTHERS WHOM WERE MURDERED?? OR THE TORTURE? OR THE FAKE WMD’S, the contacts in the ’80s etc. etc. etc. this is just media hype; “o look at that” freaking idiotic public just accepts it: “O guess this is what we should be mad about”… while banksters rob them in every possible way… So glad I no longer have to deal with this sort of RETARDED (yes throwing in the ‘r’ word too) rhetoric… The whole media was/is already controlled now they managed to control the opposition (again/as usual)
If you read this comment Stacy/Max..thanks for this video…really great job and same goes to Birgitta Jonsdottir. I thought it was significant that you asked Birgitta what role she played in the Wikileaks video. She deserves a lot of credit for help putting together important tech war footage that we all needed to see. I wish I understood more about finance so that I could help people like Birgitta who really are courageous and noble. Again, good job.
Maybe Stacy’s quote can be used as a slogan for the city of London: the place where all despots and oligarchs hide the wealth of their nations.
Exodus from Iceland: Exactly what Michael Hudson has been saying about effects of neo-feudal policies.
Wall Street Banks still hiding debts? I’m shocked… Why aren’t they just audited in the middle of the quarter? Surprise!!!
Inflationary kerplunk…Is that official economic term? It should be.
Hey, I’m not a journalist, but I’d move to Iceland – as long as I had access to those hotsprings. Mmmmm.
IMF Hitmen sent to Greece. The visit is for monday.
The IMF tries to help Greece as yield spreads soar to new highs. According to a release IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn will dispatch a team to Athens in order to evaluate a possible IMF intervention.
The release quoted Strauss-Kahn:
Following a request by the Greek authorities, I have agreed to send an IMF team to Athens to begin discussions with the Greek authorities this coming Monday on policies that could provide the basis for Fund financial assistance, under a multi-year program, in the case that the authorities decide to ask for such assistance. The Greek decision to initiate Fund program engagement is consistent with the agreement among European leaders last weekend that financial support from members of the euro area should go hand-in-hand with IMF engagement and financial assistance.
Smashing show, as usual. Max and Stacy you are true journalists, unique and bold.
Here is a great website by a couple of US soldiers, one of whom was in the same outfit that was part of the Iraq Wikileaks video. Josh was on Democracy Now and chooses not attack the soldiers, nor to excuse the US war making policies. This website is a chance to see great discernment and love come come out of the trials of our crazy human existence. A chance to celebrate truth and compassion. Enjoy.

Iceland is getting its revenge on Europe.
Thanks for the show Stacy and Max. Stacy is wearing the red cloth. beautiful.!!
Max, Stacy, please comment on this:
“By setting credits in foregin currencies, bankers are involving ordinary citizens in currency carry trade speculations.”
You are right! Again. Of course!
However, this can be evidence alone for people across world not to pay a dime on currency rates changing, because they were not informed off all the risks.
And as saver, debtor too should know his all risks. “To make right decision to take credit or not.”
Based on this point alone ppl around the world, with non-domestic credits (like in whole eastern Europe
) can demand recalculation (to domestic currency) or even nullification (WeWish 
) of debt based on such credit, because it was not presented accordingly. Therefore it was a Lie, a Fraud. And even this kind JUST(US)ice system should protect the people, at least from low level Fraud (like this).
This is legal point for Total Resurrection.
One of those… one inch punches
tnx anyway

no wonder AJ needs to believe a invisible man lives in the sky who follows every move and if you not obey the 10 things he wants you to do you burn eternally in hell to be moral… Are there seriously people worshipping ipods? as if aliens, climate change, voodoo, christianity, roman catholic, mormon, islam, scientology, rastafarian and alot of other crazy shit wasn’t enough… Soon rationality is such a minority it will not even get any attention just overshadowed by the ocean of idiocracy/stupidity…What a waste to destroy one and then buy a new one… encourage slave labour while complaining about it… If the hypothesis was; AJ often acts stupid/like an idiot I think it has been confirmed (again) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGFw3hY20lM Look forward to the interview tomorrow OTE ;-p
Actually, William Black would be a great guest for this show.
This would get Timmy G´s tick of approval.
Great show. Birgitta is such a patriot. Her sincerity and emotion real came through in that interview, very moving.
Max, you are so much more effective than say Alex Jones and you are about to become way more dangerous for the establishment because you know how and where their money flows…

“The education of speculator” Buy grain when you have spectacular volcanic explosion wiht ash. Agriculture will have a real cold summer and winter. Buy grains. Our warmers never mention the major influence these volcanoes play on the Earth’s atmosphere. It means a lot of freezing and cold wheather for this summer. Spectacular eruption indeed. What a superb metaphor indeed.
The eruption could last ONE whole year.

@Stacey,
I have been gobsmacked by how often and how accurate Max’s prophecies are. It must make life either boring or frustrating for him. How about an Oracle table listing past and future prophecies with date given and date fulfilled.

Surely Max one can claim that the war is for oil, power, money, etc. However you have fallen for the incomplete story. The film was edited. Here is the full story. Yeah, two “innocent journalists” from Al-Reuters. The soldiers were doing their job. No scandal in that.

IMF to send team to Greece to start talks Monday
IMF/GREECE (URGENT)
WASHINGTON, April 15 (Reuters) – The International Monetary Fund said on Thursday it was sending a team to Athens to begin talks with Greek authorities about possible IMF assistance under a multi-year program.
“Following a request by the Greek authorities, I have agreed to send an IMF team to Athens to begin discussions with the Greek authorities this coming Monday,” IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn said. (Reporting by Lesley Wroughton; Writing by Emily Kaiser; Editing by James Dalgleish)
i noticed that stacy is getting more and more upset with those pesky headlines. it must be mentally draining to have to go through all that crap and try and stay focused at the same time. sometimes i wish the whole thing would just collapse so we could begin to start over. this lengthy demise is agonising!

Iceland’s Volcanic Ash (PHOTOS): Volcano HALTS Flights Across Europe
LONDON — British airport operator BAA Ltd. says all flights at London’s Heathrow Airport have been suspended for the rest of the day, causing travel chaos as ash clouds from Iceland’s spewing volcano halted air traffic across Europe.
A BAA spokesman said Thursday that no further flights are expected to arrive or land at the airport, which is Europe’s busiest.

“He declined to reveal the composition of the basket, only saying it consisted of currencies of Kuwait’s major trade and financial partners.
The central bank said in the past the dollar was the biggest component of the basket, while analysts have estimated the greenback’s weight at around 75 percent.”

Cities look to debt collectors for help:
It remains unclear precisely how much in unpaid court fees and parking tickets has been farmed out to collection agencies by state and local governments since the recession began. But experts say this is one of the faster-growing segments of the multi-billion dollar debt collection industry.
…ah well, at least there is one growth industry…
Thanks for putting the GBP Kitco back.
OK. Now we know what happened in detail. And like we saw. What are they going to do about it ? Where are the bounty hunters in Londonium Parisutum to catch the vermine ? Where is the marshall court ? Where are the guillotines ? The bums should be hanged.
@snoot – I don’t know; we were there in the Gulf when they broke their peg to the dollar (due to massive inflation); but they never said what the new basket was; but I’m sure some smart person could guess the mixture in the basket by reverse engineering its movement against the dollar since the peg was broken . . .
My mistake: the kuwaiti dinar is pegged to a basket of currencies (do you know the cocktail, Stacy?) not specific to sdr.
“Kuwait was the first to do so in May of this year by deciding to peg its dinar to a basket of currencies, but it has never revealed the weight of the dollar in the basket.”
http://www.dinarbanker.com/2007/gulf-countries-face-the-dollar-peg.html
“From June 16, 2007, the Kuwaiti dinar was re-pegged to a basket of currencies,[3] and is now worth about US$3.45 (€2.37). It is the world’s highest-valued currency unit.”

“In 2010, we are forecasting premium unleaded gasoline prices to average US$97.00, up from US$70.22/bbl in 2009. We are assuming an average global jet fuel price for 2010 of US$97.58/bbl, compared with US$70.63 in 2009. For gasoil, the 2010 price estimate is for an average of US$97.40/bbl, compared with US$70.50 in 2009. The FY10 naphtha price average, estimated at US$81.58/bbl compares with US$59.07 in FY09.”

Money, Law, Medicine, and all resources of the planet have been monopolized in order to shaft and control the worlds populations,..
So why, all of a sudden are there “alternative news” sources espousing the ills of banking institutions,.just in time for the anticipated reformation of the entire world system,..huh!(coincidence)
Me thinks this is all part of the dialectic,…am I right or am I right : )
BTW folks,..taxes aren’t enforced to pay for infrastructure, only to control the people.
Governments don’t go into debt (Because they print their own paper),.the people are insidiously stripped of their wealth/labor and hence go into debt,.It’s all about the people/slaves, folks.
The masters concocted the “Great Plan”,.and it still fools everyone to this day,..go figure
