"No one will ever know who made the really big money off this situation"
"Wanna bet?
No one trades billions of dollars worth of anything without a paper trail.
Eventually we'll find a way to access those documents, maybe not "legally", but we'll find a way."


I agree. We already know... just like we knew who profited from shorting the insurance companies before 9-11.
My guess is someone has already designed a program that can predict large scale terrorist attacks based on short selling.
The Olympic announcement was the trigger. I have a feeling a terrorist attack would have taken place within 48 hours
in whatever city in what ever country, the Olympics were awarded to.

"No. 'splain please?"

Promise is the name of a software tool, the ownership of which led to an on-going court battle between the original programmer, and the U.S. govt.

The software is capable of tracking all financial transactions occurring in the western world, and should be assumed to be doing so as we communicate here, since the U.S. govt. would not have acquired it if it's use were not anticipated. It was one of the leading topics of discussion on conservative talk radio in the mid 90s

It was rumored that it was what led up to the mass resignations of powerful Dem senators and representatives during the 90s.

The DNC shorted it to get money for Hillary's 08 run.

Maybe they were watching "Time Cop" again.

You maybe right about the KGB as George Soros' old master (though we'll never know for sure), but Andropov has become the chief of this organization too late in time to create Soros.

George's Hungarian parents had fled the country when Andropov was the Soviet ambassador there. Indeed, Comrade Andropov was the Satanical force behind the Soviet assault on the Hungarian anticommunist uprising and its bloody suppression. But he still had a long way to go to reach the chair of the KGB ring-leader.

In a few days we'll be hearing that they were all warned not to use public transportation on July 7th...

Not only the accusers won't have any proof - even the name of the first identified casualty of the bombing, one Susanne Levy, 52, wouldn't change anything for them.

In my mind, that kind of profiteering is as much of a terrorist threat as having pulled the trigger on the bus bomb.....Someone should be pulling hard-time for this stuff.

You're right. I mispoke. Andropov's tenure in Hungary is actually a big part of what led me to conclude Soros' connection to him, though there are conflicts as to whether he was there at the same time as Soros. I should have said something like "back in Andropov's KGB days as he rose to head the agency and then the Soviet Union."

There is a pattern of young people mysteriously "escaping" from behind the iron curtain in areas connected to Andropov. I'm convinced that he ran a recruiting program for a long term program to plant Soviet agents of influence in the west who would work for our downfall from within.

Not spies. Not saboteurs, per se, but talented people who KGB would help to gain power within our system, but who were ideologically committed to using that power against us.

Explains a lot about Soros' career for me.

Also, did you know they finally figured out what Yuri S. Andropov's middle initial stood for?

It has also been reported that several Saudis shorted stocks worldwide in the weeks leading up to 9/11 and made tens of millions as a result.

Buy high, sell short? Forex guys have a lot more nerve than I do.

> I'll just have to stick w/writing OOM EUR calls on 200-300 pip rallies, which strategy has worked very consistently since 9 March

I guess Kofi's little tax will take a bite out of that...

Back at you!

Michael Savage rocks - this exact story was broken by Savage on his radio show two or three days ago. Definitely before the WND report. Listen to Savage every night and stay on the cutting edge.

I noticed that this attack, like 9/11 also occurred after a major tennis tournament. The moon was also in the crescent phase this time.

Even though I agree with most of what Savage says, I still can't stand listening to him. He reminds me of a conservative Michael Moore.

Savage's breadth and depth is far beyond Michael Moron and his clever manipulation of words and phrases to fit a pre-conceived conclusion. Savage's education and experience give him a much fuller worldview and allow him to connect more of the dots. He's like an orchestra while Moore is a one-note tuba. Plus Savage has better ideas that push the spineless Pubbies in the right direction.

Buffet is a big liberal, but he's also too well-respected in the business community to pull a stunt like this.
