2016-05-03 US: The banking crisis tab? ~USD 26 Trillion, or WTF...
כמה עלה המשבר הבנקאי? אולי 26 טריליון דולר, מי יודע...
================
Step by step the scope of the banking crisis is uncovered. It is difficult to believe that the US would be able to emerge from it as a world power.

More or less the case today by many measures...

לאט לאט ממדי המשבר מתגלים. קשה להאמין שארה"ב תוכל לצאת מזה כמעצמה. זה ייקח עשרות שנים, וכשהם יצאו מזה, יתברר שהפסידו עשרות שנים של התפתחות כלכלית-חברתית, והם אומת עולם שלישי עם מאגר אדיר של נשק גרעיני... פחות או יותר המצב כבר עכשיו על פי מדדים רבים...

The recent emergence of the old story of the 28 pages appears a bit contrived...
Is it at all possible, that US authorities are trying to compell Saudi Arabia to continue its cooperation with the oil/gas campaign against Russia, even when it may be disasterous for Saudi Arabia???
