  1. Devine is a perfect match. Maybe he can sing “Shoot Your Shot”.

  2. I like Mike, but the 3rd party crap is nonsense. I’m foreign born into socialist tyranny – I came to US Leagally. Third party talk is propaganda. We need to take back the Republican party. What this means = Mike is an idiot or a liar.

  3. My, My…it appears that Mr. Sumner Redstone just shot himself in the
    foot…that is providing MSM picks up on the story and the other gov’t
    agencies do their part. Yeah…fat chance. Whose we or we’re ??

  4. Sorry Max but Divine is brown bread which is such a shame. Maybe Pee Wee Herman could play Tony Blair although i dont know what he looks like these days.

  5. Krieger voted for Obama, after formerly campaigning for Clinton!!! How many times will he be fooled, bent over, and fooled again? A third (progressive) party in the US?

    Didn’t Krieger’s political engagement over the past decade or two extend to watching the phenomenal Ralph Nader campaign in 2000 that filled sports stadiums around the country. In the end Nader was not only excluded from the debates, but threatened with arrest if he even set foot on the UMass campus hosting the debates, and the Washington University campus hosting the debates, and anywhere else that a national audience might see him.

    Good luck, Mr. Krieger. But I’m sad to say Max is right. America consists primarily of people foolish enough to believe Obama is a progressive and people idiotic enough to believe he is the devil incarnate. The small slice of American voters in between these 2 views isn’t enough to overthrow the well-entrenched oligarchy. Only peasants with pitchforks pissed off at their lack of food, housing, and healthcare can save us now.

  7. Roland Ansgar

    The guest voted for Obama?! Why the hell would we consider that he has enough sense to know which was is up, or down? Therefore, why the hell are we interested in anything he has to say? I certainly have no interest in his opinion now, so I turned the interview off immediately. He has all the instincts of a Lemming.

  8. @Bel Ami great post

  9. Over the past 15 years Ive watched young UK women become ever more
    aggressive and brazen with loutish cheap supermarket booze fueled behaviour. Expect more of this with thousands being made redundant. When this kind of aggression hits the streets in numbers via the unions expect a back down and the printing press to fire up again :-

  15. Sumnergate has spilled over to CBS Corp. after it emerged that more than one woman has been the beneficiary of Viacom and CBS chairman Sumner Redstone’s largesse.

    Reports in The Daily Beast and Showbiz411 identified Rohini Singh, a young woman described as a veteran of the Los Angeles party scene, as the recipient of a low-level job at CBS Corp.-owned premium cable network Showtime and 2,522 shares of Viacom Class B stock, which she sold for $77,000, thanks to Redstone.

  19. The obfuscation of the warmongers in labelling the Afghanistan debacle as a war against Al Qaeda and the Taliban–two entities they were instrumental in creating, arming and funding—ignores the war as it presently stands. The War now is an insurgency fought by the Pashtuns against the corrupt Karzai regime funded and supported by the occupiers, NATO. To mouth phrases like, “to keep Afghanistan free of Al Qaeda and The Taliban”, as the Pashtuns and most others ethnics group in Afghanistan feel the Karzai regime is much worse than The Taliban is insanity. Women are still being raped and killed, jailed or killed for adultery and denied education. The idea NATO and Karzai represent “civilization” is a monumental denial of the facts on the ground. Opium and Hashish production has exploded exponentially. Even the people of the North(Tajiks, etc.) hate the occupiers and their clients(Karzai). Afghanistan has morphed into a Civil War along ethnic lines. This is basically a continuance of the old Northern Alliance vs. The Taliban type groups of the last century . Pakistan is smart to keep relations with The Taliban. It’s a safe bet The Taliban will inherit a decimated Afghanistan once again, regardless of Globalist triumphalism. A shrill cry of defeat is viewed in the “new” Globalist strategy of “Balkanizing” Afghanistan. NATO will give the south to The Taliban and keep Kabul and the north under NATO control–Many papers on this strategic “snatching victory from the jaws of defeat” policy have already been published and will be heard more and more in the MSM.

    Iraq will soon descend into Civil War despite the victory claims. The “withdrawal of troops from Iraq” announcement is disingenuous when there are still 50,000 US troops stationed in bases all over Iraq. Tensions between the Shia and Sunni have increased in the past few months. Car bombings and suidice bombers killing pilgrims at Shia mosques….Rarely reported in the US.

    When Hosni Mubarak dies in Egypt be prepared for an uprising.

    Osama Bin Laden uttered a prophecy in 2004. He boasted about drawing the US into a war in Afghanistan. He smiled and stated he was happy the US will bankrupt itself in spilling blood and treasure in an unwinnable war, just like the Soviets.

    I am just happy to have written something without posting links to Alex Jones(no offense meant to him–”infowars” is a prescient and appropriate meme)……..The absurdities of our policies in Afghanistan and Iraq(the Middle East in general) are quite apparent without any “conspiracy theory” nonsense. Just as the Finance and Banker bail out was a criminal coup where the traitors profited and still walk free. It’s quite open. In a time of absurdity sense should speak calmly and firmly without exaggeration. Speaking truth with conviction builds partisans–Alarmists alienate……..The Fronde(fringe) in France, an effort to resist corrupt and foreign advisors in the Regency(Cardinal Mazzini), led to greater Absolutism and more expansionist war which bankrupted France under Le Roi du Soleil.

    It is time to go, as Sertorius wisely did before me, and listen to my prophetic goat.

    Pakistani ex-spy chief hits back over leaks 27 July 2010 Islamabad (The Financial Times) http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/3a62b10c-99a8-11df-a852-00144feab49a.html

    Excerpt:

    A former Pakistani spy master has hit back at allegations he supported the Taliban, saying the US orchestrated a mass leak of confidential files in a bid to scapegoat him for its failures in Afghanistan.

    “I am a very favourite whipping boy of America. They can’t imagine the Afghans can win wars on their own,” Mr Gul told the Financial Times. “It would be an abiding shame that a 74-year-old general living a retired life manipulating the Mujahedeen in Afghanistan results in the defeat of America,” he joked. “What are they going to do to the history books for their own posterity?”

    Pakistani analysts have cast doubt on the reports, saying they reflect misinformation fed to the US by Afghanistan’s intelligence service, which has a long history of hostility towards Pakistan.

    Mr Gul branded the reports as “pure fiction”, saying his main occupation in retirement was spending time with his grandchildren and pursuing his horticultural hobby of refining mango and peach species.

    Mr Gul has not held an official position since 1992, although he is regarded as well-connected within Pakistan’s powerful military establishment.

    Mr Gul said the US had lost the war in Afghanistan, and that the leak of the documents would help the Obama administration deflect blame by suggesting that Pakistan was responsible. “A lot of bloodshed, a lot of turbulence, a lot of turmoil is in store if the American policy continues in this way,” he said. “You can’t snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.”

  81. ‘One of the first rules of business is to protect your investment. I like the idea that we do the same with our personal philosophies. Once we have decided what’s right, irrelevant of whether we are right or wrong, the more energy we will invest to protect that. Which is basically how conmen work. They get you to invest a little bit, then a bit more. They never tell you to buy something, just take a look. Even looking’s an investment. Once you’ve contributed some of your energy to looking – appraising a certain article – then a small investment has been made. From a small investment comes a larger investment, from a larger investment comes a greater investment until eventually you’ve invested so much that you can’t be wrong. Because if you are wrong, it must mean you’re stupid and nobody can admit that they’re stupid.’

    Rival gangs? People that pay pensions and those that manage the funds? Tribes are defined by common attributes, common understanding, common ideas. I don’t think people that identify with each other kill each other. That only happens when people identify themselves as different.

    That is (imho) why it is so dangerous to feel superior to others (which is only a state of mind most of the time). It is an identity that also makes getting rid of the inferior part of the grooming instinct..

    http://www.thedailybell.com/1176/Strategies-of-Military-Disinformation.html

    ‘Dominant Social Theme: The obsession of the West with Afghanistan is inexplicable. — Leftists, of course, have their pat answers. Either America is intent on exploiting Afghanistan’s resources or its geopolitical position. Libertarians of a more cynical stripe may agree with these points and add that the West generally has fought in the Middle East to ensure that the dollar remains the main reserve currency – the one that oil is purchased in. Of course this begs the question as to “why Afghanistan” – since, to the best of our knowledge, Afghanistan never threatened to destroy the linkage between oil and the dollar.

    Ask the man on the street what nation Britain has been at war with for 80 years and you will get a blank stare. Explain that it is the Pashtuns, and he still won’t know what you’re talking about. The power of the mainstream media to obfuscate and to rewrite history is just tremendous. (But you already know that.) From our point of view of course such a rewriting is actually a dominant social theme: “The West is at war with the Taliban because they are a backwards group of tribal terrorists who are trying to drag Afghanistan back to the 19th century.” It should be more and more obvious to anyone who pays attention that this is a major war. A defining moment, in fact, for Western power. The war is in fact a kind of New Crusade. It is being fought to consolidate Western power over the Muslim world and also to distract the West, secondarily, from the truth-telling of the Internet and the collapsing economies of NATO members.’

    The sight of a courtroom ful of victims of ruthless industry is all to common, it shows how naive people are to believe there is justice. The temperaments are basically sorted in society, with the people with the least moral inhibition in positions of power, and those with the most moral inhibition on their payrole.

    Are you resenting them for not waging war for real? Why are you laughing?.

  101. I have been laughing so hard thinking of these people spending two minutes of hate per day on some bloated, washed up has been that couldn’t even get the Supreme Court to throw him the election Stacy

    If I hate Algore it is because he hates CO2 which is an essential, life giving gas. Thus I oppose Al Gore cause he opposes life (other than his own I presume). That does not mean that those who oppose Algore are in favor of pollution.

    What about nuclear power, Stacy? I have little hope for windpower since it chops up birdies and probably will turn out to be too expensive because of maintenance issues. As for solar, yeah Nature is 98+% effective in converting sunlight to chemical energy so that may eventually turnout to be practical. However, nukes are practical now as France proves.

    Citigroup, JPMorgan Said to Have Sold AIG Protection to Goldman

    Excerpt:

    The Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission, which are reviewing the use of taxpayer funds in financial bailouts, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

    Goldman Sachs, which received $12.9 billion after AIG’s 2008 rescue tied to contracts with the insurer, has said it didn’t need New York-based AIG to be bailed out because it was hedged against the possibility of the firm’s failure.

I’ve been watching Gasland about the natural gas fracking that is going on across America; it is THE funniest thing I have seen in many years; it’s Monty Python on the Serengeti; full comment this weekend on the Truth About Markets, but my god it is HYSTERICAL; all these Americans with flammable water, some of which it turns out their kids have been drinking for years, without any compensation thanks to Dick Cheney’s Halliburton Loophole whereby none of these companies have to abide by any clean air or water legislation; the couple in Colorado spending $120 per month on bottled water because they are stuck in a house they can’t sell due to the flammable water and the 9 wells which they had no choice but to accept on their otherwise beautiful landscape or the old Wyoming cowboy who has oily water coming from his pump, ha ha ha, what a bonehead that this obvious g20/al gore dupe out on the wyoming plains believing his own two lying eyes that his water comes out of the faucet with a distinctly ‘oily’ quality, but then his and the two dozen or so other stories are just anecdotal, Halliburton, Encana and the other companies involved say, in writing, that the water is perfectly safe . . . ohmygod, I have been laughing so hard thinking of these people spending two minutes of hate per day on some bloated, washed up has been that couldn’t even get the Supreme Court to throw him the election

    It’s not only on Mars that was just one example outside Earth.

    “The ice caps on Mars are melting , parts of Jupiter are have warmed up ten degrees, Neptune’s moon Triton is warming, and even Pluto has slightly warmed up in recent years, instead of 230oC – 232oC. In short, Global warming also seems to be happing in our solar system outside Earth.” (Google Trans from Dutch) http://tinyurl.com/29uq3nl

  115. I don’t deny that the climate is going through changes which many scientists who are not afraid to speak, say is the result of activity by the SUN.

    What I don’t want is carbon taxes and carbon tax derivitives designed to make money for the ultra rich and the illuminits, while further making debt slaves of the whole planet and not addressing any needs of the “common herd, usless eaters” or the environment. That’s what they think of us, all of us, you and me on this website and everywhere.

    Scientist do not agree on what is happening. But many, many are finally speaking out that this carbon hoax is just that. Good o’l Al Gore. Poor guy, unless he gets this climate bill and derivatives bill through, he’s po’.

    We need real Science that is not being coerced by Al Gore and the creatures calling the shots at the center of the New World Order.

    We also need the US government to stop using chem trails which they now say they have been using to “control the weather” by way of spraying barium salts and aluminum in the atmosphere. Yeah, how’s that for man made climate change.

    CARBON TAX DERIVITIVES = DEBT SLAVERY TO THE WORLD BANK.

  116. “Nothing like this has ever been seen on Mars before”

    Maybe that’s because Mars is a heck of a long way away and seeing snow there is very hard.

  117. Youri, if the global warming had an external cause then Earth’s upper atmosphere would be warming faster than its lower atmosphere. The opposite is happening. The warming on Mars is likely caused by the wind/meteorite event which turned over darker colour sand, which retains more heat and reflects less.

    They Don’t Know What the Earth’s Climate is About so claiming that you do know is a fraud in itself.

    Secondly it’s not about cliamte Change denying that’s a cunning way of the NWO to dum the discussion down. Earth’s Climate has always changed.

    It’s about Scientific Hard Undeniable Evidence that CO2 always comes After the Earth has warmed up NEVER BEFORE!

    FED research report: U.S. is closer than ever to Japan-like deflation

    The Federal Reserve should buy more Treasury securities if inflation dips lower, rather than lengthening its existing promise to keep rates low for an extended period, said James Bullard, the president of the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank on Thursday.

    In a research report, Bullard said the U.S. is closer than it has ever been to a threat of Japan-like deflation.

    To respond to the deflation threat with a revised promise to keep rates ‘low for longer’ may be counterproductive because it might simply encourage permanent low interest rates, he said.

    “A better policy response to a negative shock is to expand the quantitative easing program through the purchase of Treasury securities,” Bullard said.

    Michael is a much more effective speaker than he is a writer. Great interview.

    I agree with Max that the American consumer does not have quite the power that Michael thinks it has. We are free to choose among the choices provided, and most of us don’t have a clue that there are better choices available (or that most of our choices are crap).

    I also don’t think that the consumer can assert its alleged sovereignty unless and until new market mechanisms are created that are free from control or assimilation by the giant corporate monopolies. I have some ideas on how to do this based on two key observations: (1) to compete with these monopolies you have to simulate their scale (you can’t achieve their purchasing and pricing power otherwise); and (2) public companies have a perpetual growth fetish that can be easily exploited to defeat them (they can easily be stripped of their core competencies if you pitch it as a way to boost earnings; the management of these lumbering giants have no idea what strategy is).

    To Max’s last comment, I don’t believe Americans in general like the taste of tyranny they’ve had thus far. The Americans you’ve seen on TV certainly love it, but the media is providing an extremely distorted view of reality, which I think is quite different. Everybody, regardless of political stripe or ideological bent, realizes that something is wrong, that there is a problem. The key is to get past the divisive memes that have been intentionally circulated to keep us from coming up with a common solution. We’ll get past those, the only questions are (1) when and (2) how much pain and suffering will be involved?

    You keep glancing at the camera and back to Stacy, and again and again — each cycle lasting about 3 seconds.
    Stacy on the other hand always looks at you and rarely at the camera.

    In Historic Vote, UN Declares Access to Water a Fundamental Right
    http://www.democracynow.org/2010/7/29/in_historic_vote_un_declares_access

    “The United Nations General Assembly has declared for the first time that access to clean water and sanitation is a fundamental human right. In a historic vote Wednesday, 122 countries supported the resolution, and over forty countries abstained from voting, including the United States, Canada and several European and other industrialized countries. There were no votes against the resolution.”

    Not much attention in the Mainstream media on it but I guess this list of shame has something to do with it – Nations that refused to vote on UN’s resolution making water a basic human right:

    Abstain: Armenia, Australia, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Ethiopia, Greece, Guyana, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Latvia, Lesotho, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Republic of Korea, Republic of Moldova, Romania, Slovakia, Sweden, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United Republic of Tanzania, United States, Zambia.

    Ah yes. The FR (fractional reserve) banks create money as they lend it but if you can’t pay it back then your REAL collateral is foreclosed on. So, the banks get something for nothing like a real house or car in exchange for money-from-nothing. Oh and to make the scam more wicked, the “loans” only create the principle; the interest does not exist in aggregate! So it must come from future loans or out of the principle lent to a fellow victim. Not to mention that the process drives up everyone’s prices and cheats savers via suppressed interest rates. I could go on and on.

    >> Who keeps voting in DODD and FRANKS?? WHO voted for OBAMA without questioning his past or his associations??? I am in continuous disbelief that so many educated and accomplished people bought into his ‘hope and change’ crap and ignored his documented past.

    A simple answer to the who question?:

    1) The young/dumb fresh out of “government” schools/universities with no ability to think for themselves and want/NEED to follow the herd.

    2) The old/set-in-their-ways, who are out of the labour market and are dependent on government handouts or savings that they feel the “government” can protect.

    Time, i.e., greater life experience and death will solve the problems of these two groups respectively. (Obviously I don’t want people to die prematurely!)

    Like I said,….stick to your stand up,..you’re funnier !

  174. I think what Mr. Krieger had to say regarding the general population of the country is pretty much correct especially when tied in with what you guys say on your show all the time…It is a fact that Americans have become a frighten cowering group and will except anything we are told…and for good reason…

    For example, when I tell people I know about your show on RT, they are horrified, not by what you have to say, or the idea of the show, but the fact that you are on Russian Television…there is no chance that they will go and look at your show on their computers for fear of someone here knowing that they as Americans are watching anything on Russian TV…say it or not, no American even sends out an email without thinking about who is reading it and what problems it might cause them…Oh they will tell you that they are not afraid of anything and they are all tough guys because they are Americans and they are free to say and do whatever they want to do..Not true at all…everyone I know, like it or not is afraid of the government..Not as in hiding in the closet yet, but enough to keep a big outcry or any kind of action against the banks or anyone really from ever happening…that is because everyone knows any real dissent would all be crushed in a minute, and by a minute, I mean less than a minute.

    I live in Las Vegas Nevada where every third person is in law enforcement…you think I am kidding; we have the State police, Metro police, the Sheriff, U.S. Marshalls, Park Police, BLM police, Forrest Rangers, Military police, FBI, DEA, Secert Service, security police, Casino Police, Private security Police, ICE, IRS, and who knows how many unidentified variations of secret police or ones I have just missed..we have cops on bikes, in cars and trucks, in helicopters constantly buzzing around, un-marked police cars, marked police cars, Swat trucks etc…it is amazing when you are here every day how it all just gets blended into the background…but if you stop and look around you have to ask yourself, what are all these people doing here…and I am not talking about black helicopters or any of that stuff…just everyday Las Vegas…

    A few months ago in the complex I live in, we had an ex military person with PTSD, stop taking his meds and go off his rocker a little, and someone called the police and within 30 seconds from the time this all started, we had four police cars, eight cops, a fire truck and an EMS truck in the driveway, and that was just to talk to the guy…how they can react that fast can only mean that all of those cops and all of that equipment are all within 30 seconds of this location and we are not in a crime ridden area by a long shot…they are just there all the time…

    Last week in the Mormon parking lot behind our complex there must have been fifty white unmarked everyday looking cars and trucks parked there along with two Swat Trucks, a K-9 truck, and half a dozen marked police cars…along with the cars and trucks there were a bunch of guys in green fatigues wearing guns and wandering around and practicing some kind drills…I knew nothing about it and just happened to walk out the front door to get to the front yard of my house to clean up after my dog and soon as I stepped outside of the house everything they were doing stopped and everyone disappeared behind the big swat trucks until I went back inside…

    Now maybe I am just a lucky guy to have this much police protection outside my gate to service my every want and need…or maybe I live in a police state and these mutts are just looking for a reason to use all of this force, which do you think it is…and yes while I am writing this…I am wondering who will be reading this and come a knocking at my door, you know for national security reasons…

  175. In the end, we are all damned

    @Max

    “Barack Obama-ism” – you spoke something about him being a U Chicago trained economist (or something). I want you Max Keiser to win and as such be all that you are which is entertaining, fun…and smart. Please don’t talk too loosely, though. Obama is an idiot when it comes to economics, I believe (and an idiot in general, I believe). He even stated as much himself that he knew nothing about economics. I really doubt he has a clue what is going on and that is why the guy is always on the golf course, at another party, or doing more campaigning (which is really what he is ALL about).

  176. @F. Beard – yesterday you asked if we have to fly to New Zealand to make our half our radio program for them, today you ask if we have to fly to Russia twice a week to make our RT show . . . you’re joking today, right?

  177. I enjoyed your show and interview with Mr. Krieger, I agree with the part of local exchange/support and starving the corporate/banks of your wealth. Best way to bring them to their knees; learn to live without the big banks and credit scores.

    I totally disagree with ‘progressive’ thinking – it’s what got us here and is hurtling us towards chaos.

    I doubt if Americans will wake up in time;
    Who keeps voting in DODD and FRANKS?? WHO voted for OBAMA without questioning his past or his associations??? I am in continuous disbelief that so many educated and accomplished people bought into his ‘hope and change’ crap and ignored his documented past.

    Evidently a ‘majority’ of Americans -who:

    Know more about ballgame players or entertainers than their own elected officials.

    Know more about the ballgame rules than their own US Consitution (that thing that keeps you free?).

    - TOAST!!!
    I, have already gotten out of all non essential dollar traded assets (including properties, high maintenance luxury and sports cars) sold quickly so came out with profit, use banks only for essential checking, trade/speculate only for near term gains, am well positioned (and mobil) for the coming crippling taxes and CO2 related comings, gold, silver and renting.

    Good show. Do you and Max have to fly to Russia when you are on RT?

  182. I would suggest, it’s a big game out there,…and the players are playing you all,….: )

  183. Here’s some differing perspectives,…just to throw in the mix,…

    The claim – if true – threatens a new political storm over how and why FBI officials and MI5 operatives conspired to supply deadly bomb-making equipment to the Provisional IRA in the early 1990s, mechanisms the paramilitary organisation later shared with Palestinian fighters.

  184. @Dedo — i’m just watching, don’t expect to change anything… you gotta remember it’s winter down here.

  185. Just something for you guys to ponder,……

    How long have you been rattling on about this and that,…..
    And tell me,..
    Has it “really” changed the course of events,…LOL
    Don’t think so,…do you
    ; )

  186. @alex — thnx…

    @Dedo — you’re right… fire justifiably pissed upon.

  187. ihateclowns

    Great show as always,lord of the rings lol,one bank to rule them all.

  188. @richard — Just heard from John Young, the Crytome guy, and he says the “insider emails” aren’t verified in any way. So, who knows, maybe it’s Chinese “cyberspies”, or someone who wants to discredit WL — or just add bullshit disinfo into the mix…

    @Progressive Website

    This has been a long-existing progressive website ever since the beginning of the web:

  190. REF: Wikileaks,..

    I hope you guys realize, the system is “really” to big to stand up against, especially from the likes of small fry like Assange.
    These stories are put out to occupy your minds,..while the real work is going on ,….old technique,…never fails,…..: )
    (BTW: I hate to piss on your fires,.NOT!)

  191. Gourmet Teamster

    Best show EVER!!! Keep up the good work.

  192. The people don’t have choice at all.
    Or if they do then they don’t use it. I mean real choice.

    In a democracy we believe that we have choice between Coke and pepsi, crinkle cut potato chips or thin sliced ones, leaded or unleaded petrol, big banks or small banks.

    This is the choice you have been given.
    You are free.

  193. @Tofu Charlie

    Great blog you have there.

  194. Crumpet Muncher

    Why would you tell someone you weren’t going to kill them?

    Hello is the Woolworths? I’m trying to find out who weighed my chocolate Brazil nuts at the pic ‘n’ mix counter this morning. I’m not going to kill him, I just think he pinched one from the bag after he charged me. I only want to ask him why he did it.

  195. But without a “government” pointing guns at people, who will build the roads?!!

    Still, this lust for a ‘third party’ is a great sign of the times.

    Fool me thrice, shame on …

  196. @ Richard

    The common denominator is that these people all hate the USA and want to see the country go down. Having Americans hated globally is a done deal already. I’m in Southeast Asia at the moment and you can imagine the daggers at my back. I’m not paranoid…..these are poor people who get screwed over regularly and the US is the superpower on the march.

    Pakista Schmackistan as Max might say. The bastards want WW3 and nothing less. Enjoy your summer, it may the last peaceful on for quite a while.

  197. Mr. Krieger’s point that the consumer is in control is valid.

    It’s like the Wizard of Oz Dorothy could go home any time without the Wizard.

    It’s all about one thing ( Money) doing something ( exchange)

    How you decide to transact money is how Economic reality is created
    Enough talk! start exchanging your money wisely and change will happen.

  198. TheFlyingDutchman

    Another great Max/Stacy production, kudos!

  199. Alot of the papers involved are linked to the intelligence community and the guardian has just stated that it is making a massive loss £89.8 million. So who knows? Maybe they took a cheque?

    Guardian Story.

  200. @rickard — wikileaks insiders (if they’re legitimate) imply that WL is very top-down, and that Assange is motivated by money… so perhaps they’re more open to manipulation because of their weird funding issues. It’s weird.

  201. Thanks

  202. Do you think the wikileaks afghan project is designed to implicate Pakistan and justify pushing into other countries?

  203. @ Stacy & Max

    Great show as always

    @ Tofu Charlie

    I too want to believe the best of these guys but Wikileaks iz CIA
