WORLD’S TOP THREE SCAMERS OF U.S. TREASURY: 1. OSAMA BIN LADEN, 2. NOURI MALAKI, 3. HAMID KARZAI. (HENRY PAULSON HONORABLE MENTION).
OSAMA BIN LADEN
11/01/04 - Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden said he is trying to bankrupt the U.S. through its war on terror, a strategy he says felled the Soviet Union two decades ago in Afghanistan, according to a translation by al-Jazeera television of his videotaped statement.
“All that we have to do is to send two mujahedeen to the furthest point East to raise a piece of cloth on which is written al-Qaeda, in order to make the generals race there to cause America to suffer human, economic, and political losses without their achieving for it anything of note other than some benefits for their private companies,” bin Laden said, according to the al-Jazeera transcript.
Well, the wiley old fox may live in a cave but he’s well on his way. And he even cites the M-I complex - accurately!
NOURI MALIKI (VIA BUSH, CHENEY, M-I COMPLEX OF COURSE)
By Bob Deans Cox News Service Published on: 02/28/08.
The Iraq war will cost Americans between $3 trillion and $5 trillion, including military spending, broader economic costs and decades of benefits and medical care for combat veterans, a Nobel prize-winning economist told the Joint Economic Committee on Thursday.
HAMID KARZAI
“And Afghanistan will not allow the international community leave it before we are fully on our feet, before we are strong enough to defend our country, before we are powerful enough to have a good economy.” Karzai said.
He then added that the world community can’t leave “before we have taken from President Bush and the next administration billions and billions of more dollars.”
“No way that they can let you go.” said Karzai, whose remarks drew laughter.
As of last summer, the United States had spent about $200 billion on the war in Afghanistan, according to congressional officials. Both Bush and President-elect Obama have made continued U.S. military involvement in Afghanistan central to their foreign policies.
HENRY PAULSON - HONORABLE MENTION
By: CNBC.com [28 Nov 2008 ] 01:56 PM ET
Given the speed at which the federal government is throwing money at the financial crisis, the average taxpayer, never mind member of Congress might not be faulted for losing track.
CNBC, however, has been paying very close attention and keeping a running tally of actual spending as well as the commitments involved. And there’s been quite a jump since we last tabulated things two weeks ago.
Try $7.36 trillion dollars. That’s more than double what was spent on WWII, if adjusted for inflation, based on our computations from a variety of estimates and sources.
COMMENTARY
We (Congress/Bush) have given Mr. Paulson a license to steal (TARP).
He has outdone the top three non-resident scammers, and history will wonder (1) how he did it, (2) how he gained the presumptive right(?), and (3) why he was never tried, convicted and incarcerated (for crimes against humanity if nothing else). Of course many other conspirators are due the same attention. Citigroup, a large recipient of TARP funds to rescue their hedge fund operations - the very corrosive part that should be allowed to fail - comes to mind.
It’s obvious that to date the financial wise-guy hedgers got the bailout medicine when excising the putrescent corruption from the financial body before gangrene set in was what was really needed. The really vulnerable and more extensive mortgagee’s crises have gone begging (literally). The predators seem to prevail a la the law of the jungle. Maybe we’re not that much a higher form of animal after all?
Oligarchic governance is a lethal combination. Like a corrupt cop.
Paulson et al should be consigned to living under a Detroit bridge for the downturn’s duration with their victims. Osama bin Laden has to be applauding him and all his ilk - firing his AK47 in the air with great jubilation over the accomplishments of the three non US coconspirators, but doubtless equally exuberant for his unexpected partner and allies “Allie Baba Paulson and his forty plus thieves.”
We’re run by a ship of fools, venal whores and grasping children.

I really enjoyed Arriana'a website. I visit it regularly. I think it was a great source of info.
tartufe 12/08/2008 01:45 AM Report
Two issues, one trivial the other emotionally judgmental. Trivial: went to Huffington Post site and tried to register with a fake email unsuccessfully, so I bailed. Silly? Yep. But your email travels with the msg so why do they ask for it. I used a fake email on CR till these knew requirements. Programing should handle that.
To Ricardo_Amaral - since you rather shamelessly used this blog as an advertisement for your own and are confidant of your economic prowess with titles like, "The U.S. Has Dragged the World into a Depression," I am hereby soliciting your opinion on a pet peeve of mine. To regain the world's confidence in the US financial system, systematic and thorough investigations of all potential perpetrators of this pandemic misery should be undertaken. Without such no one can be assured it wont happen again. Bailouts will assure it and without meaningful trials, fines and incarceration as an offset the moral hazard will return.
In this regard Robert Rubin and Citigroup are culpable and prime players in initiating the enabling legislation from repeal of Glass-Steagall, and overriding of states usury laws, to championing more stringent bankruptcy a la the infirm and unemployed ad nauseam.
Excerpt NY Times entitled "Where was the wise man?" Where indeed.: "Early in 2005, Citigroup’s board asked the C.E.O., Mr. Prince, and several top lieutenants to develop a growth strategy for its fixed-income business. Mr. Rubin peppered colleagues with questions as they formulated the plan, according to current and former Citigroup employees. With Citigroup falling behind Wall Street rivals like Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, Mr. Rubin pushed for the bank to increase its activity in high-growth areas like structured credit.
He also encouraged Mr. Prince to raise the bank’s tolerance for risk, provided it also upgraded oversight. Then, according to current and former employees, he helped sell the proposal to his fellow directors.
On the surface, this appeared to be a sensible strategy. In hindsight, the timing could not have been worse: Citigroup was bulking up in mortgage-linked securities in 2006, not long before that market cratered."
Ostensibly Rubin and Citi broke no laws. He had them changed to avoid that. He only violated laws of common decency, equity and fair play. But that's OK in a predatory state. But do they buy that in Brazil? France? Congo?
In the US the prisons are full of druggers and petty thieves. A $700 heist of a convenience store puts you in the calaboose. A $0.7 trillion heist via hi-jacked legislation gets you accolades and a golden parachute. If hell is merely wishful thinking by us prey, where does retributive redemption come riding in on a gleaming manicured white charger to vanquish the predators?
Why isn't he in jail? Or someone? Is our culture / society so sick that they can manipulate the system so blatantly with impunity? Is there no court of moral turpitude that would have merit in civil law? So abusive and flagrant! Maybe we can do an OJ on him and lock him up in perpetuity for a parking ticket. He's not a nice man and I hope his yacht is springing a leak.
My emotive blogging made me forget the premise. Oh yeah, Amaral could you have him extradited to Brazil on 'crimes against humanity' down there and around the world?
This is for all those living under a bridge tonight because of Citigroup and Rubin et al. And they don't even know who to be angry at.

With all respect to Huffington, citizen journalism faces a hurdle when organizations and individuals require credentials. I encountered this when I wanted to blog about a meeting of the ILO in Busan. Since I wasn't an employee of a newspaper, I could not join the gathering.

Arianna Huffington probably would enjoy reading the following article on Brazzil magazine and bloggings about the US economy on Elite Trader.
Besides having many of my articles published by Brazzil magazine, The Brasilians, ArabNews one of the most influential publications in the Arab world (the equivalent of The New York Times), plus RGE Monitor – I also blog on a regular basis on Elite Trader the number one website and forum about Wall Street and the investment world.
By the way, my screen name on Elite Trader is SouthAmerica.

I don't know if she said it in this interview, but she has certainly said it before: blogging is cathartic for people. I blog whenever I feel pent up feelings about a particular issue, mostly political, and blogging about it makes me feel much better.
Since I post my writings on Facebook, I am sometimes able to get people engaged who normally don't care. When they feel another's passion about something, it stirs them up. There is, however, a major problem: the blogger is relied upon to blog with a certain sense of responsibility. Ms. Huffington presents a very good argument in response to this point, that it self-regulates itself.
This woman was incredibly thoughtful and articulate. Her views on politics were a bit crude and partisan, but the same goes for 90% of Americans.
I never understood the phenomenon of bloggers, like on this site (yes you are all bloggers), harshly criticizing someone like her. I doubt many of us could do any better under the glare of television cameras. It takes an incredible amount of composure. It's like having such unbridled hatred for a politician when the person who hates him/her either can't do any better or hasn't cared enough to try. However, when things are bad, they are more than willing to throw this person under the bus.

In its first few months HuffPo was relatively interesting because they actually had a fresh view. Sadly, it has become overcrowded and suffers from the same syndrome cable news suffers: confusing immediacy and relevancy.
REMant 12/06/2008 01:11 AM Report
Blogs essentially are websites where most of the work is done by a provider for ppl who can't do it themselves. It usually includes a forum program so that ppl can respond and discuss. A lot of blogs, however, are being used to circulate copyrighted materials, just as the Usenet, (which was the first of this kind of thing - listserv before that) was used before. In this case the blogs or forums provide communication and links to materials stored in various upload providers. Actually Tom Paine was a pen-for-hire like Defoe, Addison, Cobbett, et al. I think she is right that while the mainstream media have the attention span of a pea (Dave Barry?), many bloggers are the equivalent of bumper stickers or claques. But there are some very good blogs and forums on a wide range of subjects, tho their advice should not be taken uncritically. I am not sure The Huffington Post can be considered to be one of them. She doesn't understand politics in the slightest, and she certainly seems to suffer from Oprah-syndrome.

Fantastic, ineffable chemistry between those two. Charlie you dawg.

Apart from her radiant beauty, the theme was blogging, whatever that is, and if she' for it, I'm for it too. Wikipedia' has an exhaustive description of it. I surmise it is good on the basis that it fosters the flow of ideas, that leads to understanding, and because she says so, great show.
briancuffari 12/05/2008 09:27 PM Report
Is it just me, or did this interview seem to get a little bit flirtatious at the end? The body language and giggling suggests to me that it did:-) Not that I am the least bit concerned about it. Are either one of them married? If so, sorry! If not, then take each other out.
CarolJ 12/05/2008 07:11 PM Report
Good interview Charlie, I have seen how she has changed for the better in her speaking and actions by watching your show and old interviews. I have decided I do not like parts of this new website. I liked it when you had the white screen. Also liked the fact that if you went into the current interview and the person had been on your show before there would be smaller pictures and text to the right of the interview and you could click on these former interviews and watch them. Plus you have not given us a full picture, all you have given us is black space to the right of the interview. Ugh!
