Exclusive: Who Was Behind the Attack on Our Economy – Just Before the Election?
FSM ^ | 2/17/09 | John Sweat

Posted on 02/17/2009 1:36:53 PM PST by FromLori

A financial attack on the world economy happened on Monday, September 15, 2008 – but we're not supposed to talk about this. The mainstream media has been ignoring this issue, and the only attention it has been receiving is from talk radio and the blogosphere.

House Representative Paul Kanjorski (D-Pennsylvania) let slip in a January 27, 2009 interview on C-Span the following about a discussion in a meeting he attended with Secretary of the Treasury Hank Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke:

"…at about 11 o'clock in the morning, the Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous drawdown of money market accounts in the United States to the tune of $550 billion, as being drawn out in the matter of an hour or two.

The socialist scheme of the Cloward-Piven Strategy maybe a factor.

FINANCIALLY DISARMED
WE HAVE BEEN FINANCIALLY DISARMED Trafalgar (for Atlas)
Much commentary on the trillion-plus “stimulus package” has noted its wastefulness and expansion of government power into every crevice of an individual citizen’s life. But no one has caught what should be blindingly obvious: We have unilaterally disarmed ourselves of the financial power to wage war. The cost of this bill surpasses the total outlay of the combined wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and will serve as the irrefutable excuse for Obama’s previously-expressed desire to de-weaponize our military. As the bill’s costs mount - in welfare payments, health expenses, union kickbacks and more - we will simply be unable to summon the financial strength to answer attacks on our country. Combine this with the soon-to-come ending of sanctions against Syria and Iran, and the nationalization of our banks which can then freely convert to sharia finance models, and the situation is clear: Less than a month into Obama’s presidency, the United States has already surrendered to radical Islam.

"Still...why didn’t he do it in 2004? Bush was leaving anyway."

Things weren't ready in 2004 for the Marxists. There would have been a general panic, but the political machine was not yet in place.

Probably.

Perfect proof that those who maintain we live in the silicon era and are mere ciphers ourselves can no longer be simply the targets of scorn.

Not one tangible thing exists within that world, world currency being the first to go.

Who will listen to the undocumented exile with no entry in the demographic database?

Only the shards will remain as each vessel, nay, vassal lay broken.

Naw...I think it was Soros. President Bush seem truly shocked by what Paulson presented to him.

Because at the time, McCain was winnning in the polls and starting to pull away.

Does this sound familiar at all?

“Owners of capital will stimulate the working class to buy more and more of expensive goods, houses and technology, pushing them to take more and more expensive credits, until their debt becomes unbearable.

The unpaid debt will lead to bankruptcy of banks, which will have to be nationalized, and the State will have to take the road which will eventually lead to communism.”

- Karl Marx, 1867, Das Kapital

Millions of people were told informally over that proceeding weekend what was about to happen.

Let's run the numbers, shall we?

In the course of 1 to 2 hours on a Monday morning around 11:00 am, this many people decided to draw down a combined total of $550 billion dollars from their money market funds (the second number is the average amount drawn down):

$550,000,000,000 / $10,000 = 55,000,000 people

$550,000,000,000 / $100,000 = 5,500,000 people

$550,000,000,000 / $500,000 = 1,100,000 people

$550,000,000,000 / $1,000,000 = 550,000 people

==============================================

This isn't an attack; I'm just running the numbers.

550 billion? In a hurry stimulus plan 800 billion? What a way to hide the 550 if you need to put the money back in the market. Was it ever made clear to the public where the stimulus money would come from? Geithner is irreplaceable.

"He [Soros] didn't own Kerry."

No, but Theresa Heinz does, and she is in bed with Soros as well as all the other America-hating billionaires who are working hard and spending a fortune to destroy this country. Obambi is their sock puppet, same as Kerry would have been. The last piece of the puzzle for them to perfect was buying, owning, and getting the Secretary of States of many states like Ohio elected to office. Once they had them counting the votes, they had the election in the bag. It only took them 3 tries and tons of $ to own a President and run the country from behind the curtain.

Gold jumped to multiple records on Tuesday, triggered by fears that East Europe's banking crisis could set off debt defaults and lead to contagion within the eurozone.

Is there any good financial news? Oh, and thanks for the ping.
