13-04-21 Israel: People v Banksters 1:0



 
Tycoon Nochi Dankner, Stanley Fischer with his newly acquired Israeli ID in 2005.
Over the past decade, the Israeli economy has been taken over by a handful of tycoons, some - related to the Russian mafia.  In parallel, poverty in Israel doubled, and the middle class is close to disappearing.
One of the highlights of the corruption, has been in the extension of credit to the tycoons, through publicly owned banks and through the issuance of publicly traded bonds, with no adequate controls and no adequate guarantees, through rampant conflicts of interests, and a web of nepotism .  Eventually, the risks are held by the institutional retirement funds of the working people.
Now this house of cards, partly built under the watchful eyes of Governor of Bank of Israel Stanley Fischer (Bernanke's teacher), is collapsing.  Stanley Fischer, the man of perfect timing (left Citibank at the right time) has recently announced his almost immediate early retirement (June 2013), hoping again to leave the scene before the collapse.
Now, one of the tycoons, Nochi Dankner, is defaulting on a sum, estimated at NIS 4 billions (~USD 500 millions).  In US terns, this is pocket money, but for the Israeli economy it is a dreadful sum.  In comparison, a national state budget deficit of NIS 20-40 billions is the reason for implementing harsh austerity measures, European style...
Last week, it was published that one of the major Israeli banks (Bank Leumi) is waiving Dankner's debt of NIS 200 millions, with no adverse effects on Dankner - leaving him in control of his business pyramid scheme. (a classic "haircut")
facebook and media protest erupted with promises of a boycott and demonstrations against the bank.
This morning, news says that a special meeting of the Board of Directors of the Bank met for a special emergency meeting and canceled the previously approved waiver agreement.
Needless to say, corruption of the courts was and is essential part of the process.  Assistant Presiding Judge of the Tel Aviv Court Vardah AlSheikh was caught falsifying her own court records in a major haircut litigatation.  In this case, even the Israeli Bar demanded her removal from the bench.  Regardless, the Israeli Minister of Justice, the Israeli Presiding Justice of the Supreme Court refused to take action. She is still handling the major haircut cases...
There is nothing like the power of the People, and no replacement for it in any representative system... and none to blaim, but the People, when they subject themselves to abuse...

13-04-20 Los Angeles under the Greater Depression

With all its vile, I miss LA.  Especially, since I know that I am unlikely to be able to ever enter the United States again, unless there is a regime change there.  I also am interested in the changes under the current Greater Depression: How many houses are under foreclosure if you drive through North Hollywood or the valley?  What percentage of the shops are boarded if you drive through Ventura Blvd? Hollywood Blvd? Melrose? Adams?  How many homeless people are on the street in Santa Monica?  I get some idea about how bad it is from visitors, who live there to Israel,  but the piece below gives you  the impression that LA under the Greater Depression left on a visitor to LA from elsehwere.
And we ain't seen nothing yet!

Liveleak.com - not a legitimate leaking stie! Even when comments are posted, "0" reads are listed.  Even Stanley Fischer is not accorded this level of protection...  and Israeli censorship on the itnernet is well advertized.  There was even a case when it was published that an Israeli judge approached Google to remove critical materials regarding the Israeli judiciary... jz

How The Criminal Banking Cartel Is Destroying America

Part Two: How Obama Surrendered Sovereignty to the Criminal Banking Cartel
By John Titus
---
Summary of Part One:
The U.S. government openly conceded that its sovereign authority to enforce its own laws is gone when Attorney General Eric Holder testified that the Justice Department’s failure to prosecute any big banks is based on anonymous “expert” opinions that prosecutions would destabilize the financial system.
This notion of “systemic importance” has been thoroughly discredited. According to Tim Geithner, it’s an intellectually bankrupt phrase.  What’s more, it’s been debunked both legally and empirically, which is likely one reason the DOJ’s “experts” wish to remain anonymous.
If it turns out that these “experts” are in fact agents of the big banks whose crimes are being immunized by the very entities whose discredited opinions the DOJ is relying on, then those “opinions” are nothing more than assertions of criminal sovereign immunity—a privilege that is legally limited to the President of the United States.
Since “the King can do no wrong”—the legal foundation of sovereign immunity—the real King here is the criminally immune cartel of banks, not the President, since real sovereigns don’t surrender the right to enforce their laws.  And following the long series of unprosecuted crimes by the cartel, in which the President’s own constituents are the undisputed victims, “surrender” is the most charitable description of the Obama’s acts before the banking cartel.

Part Two: Inside The Criminal Banking Cartel
There are two very big and related clues as to the identity of the anonymous experts behind whose opinions U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder hides whenever explaining away his failure to prosecute big banks on the basis of their “systemic importance.”
The first, noted in an article last week by Golem XIV, is a list of international banks that parade under the rather obvious label of “Globally Systemically Important Financial Institutions,” or G-SIFIs. There are 28 banks in total, 9 of them headquartered in the U.S.:
Citigroup
Deustsche Bank
HSBC
JP Morgan Chase
Barclays
BNP Paribas
Bank of America
Bank of New York Mellon
Credit Suisse
Goldman Sachs
Mitsubishi UFJ FG
Morgan Stanley
Royal Bank of Scotland
UBS
Bank of China
BBVA
Group BPCE
Group Credit Agricole
ING Bank
Mizuho FG

Santander
Societe Generale

13-04-20 US: Prosecution of Occupy people, against the better judgment of the District Attorney...

While no prosecution of top banksters, a judge denies the right of the DA to decide on whom to prosecute.. jz

Albany City Judge Rules Prosecutors Cannot Abandon Prosecution of Occupy Protesters

After the November 2011 protests by the Occupy Wall Street movement, Albany County District Attorney P. David Soares had announced that he would not prosecute protesters for low-level offenses, as because it was not worth the resources of his office.

In March 2012, Albany City Judge Thomas Keefe dismissed charges against 88 Occupy members on the grounds that the DA has refused to prosecute. At the time, Keene found that the district attorney had the authority to decide how to allocate office resources, as long as that allocation was unbiased.

However, on Friday, Albany City Judge William Carter found Soares had not given a reason that was legally sufficient to refuse prosecution of disorderly conduct against four persons who took part in a 2012 protest organized by Occupy.

13-04-20 Boston bombing - beyond mourning and compassion - perhaps it's time to regroup and change direction?


Obviously, the enormous police state appartus and voiding of the US Constitution, which took place in the name of fighting terror, are not working.

An old saying (by whom? don't remember): 
Choose your enemies carefully, because that's what you would probably end up like!

With bomb sinffing dogs and private security corporations guarding the Boston Marathon, the bombing was not prevented.  And according to the mother of the suspects (see below), they were under FBI surveillance for years!

Haaretz (Israel) Editorial: 
The Boston bombers have already scored a tremendous victory for terror
The whole world is watching the gripping drama of U.S. security forces invading an American metropolis and shutting it down. Terrorists around the world couldn't ask for anything more.

Mother Of Boston Suspects: They Knew What My Son Was Doing

April 19, 2013 by  Leave a Comment
Boston Suspects Mother
In a stunning interview the mother of the men accused of the Boston marathon bombing gave a startling account of her son’s involvement with the FBI.
“My youngest one was raised actually from eight years, he was raised in America,” she said. “And my oldest son, he is like, really proper raised in our house. Nobody talked about terrorism.”
She said that the FBI was aware of Tamerlan.
“And my son Tamerlan really got involved in the religion, you know, religious politics five years ago, so he… never, never told me that he would be like on the side of jihad,” Tsarnaeva continued.
“He was counseled by FBI for three, five years. They knew what my son was doing. They knew what actions and what sites on the Internet he was going. How could this happen? How could they — they were following every step of him and they’re telling today this is a terrorist act.”
The video of the interview is here.

13-04-19 Presiding Justice of the Israeli Supreme Court is asked to ensure honest registration of petition, which documents lack of integrity in the computerized records of the Israeli courts over the past decade


The courts are central to socio-economic changes in Israel over the past decade, from banking and stock market regulation, through the use of public land, to the rights of underprivileged groups such as victims of Nazi persecutions, radiation victims in the Dimona nuclear plant, veterans, and social security beneficiaries.
    
Magistrate Hagai Brenner of the Tel Aviv District Court, Presiding Justice Asher Grunis, and self-immolated social protest activist Moshe Silman.  The petition to the Supreme Court provides evidence in support of the opening lines in Silman's last letter - "and the Tel Aviv District Court denied my access to justice, Magistrate Hagai Brenner of the Tel Aviv District Court violated the law and obstructed justice with impunity."

Tel Aviv, April 19 - in a letter, sent today, Presiding Justice of the Israeli Supreme Court Asher Grunis is asked to ensure honest registration of a petition (Dr Joseph Zernik v Minster of Justice Tzipi Livni and Director of the Courts Michael Spitzer, 2689/13), alternatively - to provide refund for court fees. [1]
The reason for the unusual request is the opening of the petition file last week, while failing to register the filing of the petition commencing record.  With it, Justice Esther Hayut issued yesterday the first decision in a petition, which is not before the Court. [2]    
The petition itself claims that the authority vested in the Director of Administration of Courts by then Justice Minister in 2004 to introduce unspecified changes in the Regulations of the Courts in the process of implementing new computer systems in the courts, should be void and null. [3] The petition claims that such authority violates the principle of separation of branches of government, and therefore, the Minister of Justice was not authoritzed to vest such authority, and the Director of the Courts was not authorized to accept such authority.  Additionally, the petition claims that the situation violates the principle of publicity of the law, since the Administration of Courts refuses to disclose what the changes were.  Such secret changes undermine the Regulations of the Courts, as well as Civil and Criminal Court Procedures, as published and known by the public.
The petition also brings evidence that conditions, which have been established in the courts as a result of imlementing the computerized systems of the past decade, undermine the integrity of the courts.  
Central part of the evidence stems from the case of self-immolated, social protest activist Moshe Silman in the Tel Aviv District Court:  Three court file numbers were identified in the case of Silman v Social Security Administration. In the first - the commencing paper was purportedly filed.  The office of the Clerk of the Court now claims that such court file never existed. In the second court file, Magistrate Hagai Brenner affected the dismissal of the complaint.  In the third court file, Pro Tem District Judge Hagai Brenner denied an appeal from his own decision. 
The evidence in the petition is also based on system wide review of the computerized systems that have been implemented over the past decade, as part of Human Rights Alert (NGO) submission to the Human Rights Council for the 2013 Universal Periodic Review of Human Rights in Israel.  [4]  Among the findings were numerous decisions of the Supreme Court, which were purportedly digitally signed by the late Chief Clerk of the Israeli Supreme Court up to five years after his death.

Electronic decision record of the Israeli Supreme Court, purportedly from 2007, in Franco-Sidi v Administrator of the Nazi Persecutions Compensation Fund (1583/12).  The decision was purportedly signed by the late Chief Clerk Shmaryahu Cohen five years after he was no longer among the livinig, and by Magistrate Boaz Okon, a couple of years after he was no longer with the Supreme Court.

The petition also notes the conduct of Israeli judges in recent years - Judge Vardah AlSheikh of the Tel Aviv District Court and former Judge Hilah Cohen of the Haifa District Court were both caught falsifying court records.  Such conduct was unlikely to be possible, had the computerized systems of the court been valid.
The petition also notes that three senior Computer Science professors from three different Israeli universities, who examined the findings, expressed deep concerns regarding validity of the systems.  One of them forwarded on behalf of the petitiner a request for halachic ruling by Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz: Is the Supreme Court of the State of Israel engage in widespread public deception?
The courts are central to socio-economic changes in Israel over the past decade, from banking regulation the use of public land, to the rights of underprivileged groups such as victims of Nazi persecution, radiation victims in the Dimona nuclear plant, veterans, and social security beneficiaries.
