Backing Into War: Israel's Strike on Syria, a Precurser to Iran Holocaust
Charles E. Carlson May 07, 2008
Israel's Strike on Syria, a Precurser to Iran Holocaust---
We must accept that we live in a war-based economy. And no act of deception by our international banker and industrialist dominated political leaders goes too far, no indecency and brutality to mean. The nuclear industrial site in Iran, with its thousands of civilian employees, is the next target…the next phase of the war on Islam that began with oil rich Iraq in 1991. Israel's bombing of Syrian last September was a practice run, a stepping stone for an unprovoked raid by Israel using US military machines, and supported by the USA.

| Israel and the Philistines, Who is the Aggressor?
Charles E Carlson Apr 20, 2008
Americans are preoccupied with Iraq, and most (with the big exception of Christian Zionists) admit that the USA is the aggressor. Christian Zionists also deny Israel's guilt for religious reasons. But it is time everyone else admits that war in the land of the Philistines continues because Israel’s present leaders do not believe they can live in peace with Muslim Arabs. They pretend to seek peace, but keep the conflict going.

Charles E. Carlson Mar 21, 2008
As a child, "Good Friday" seemed a paradox. What can be good about the day one is tortured and murdered by his enemies? But the words attributed to Jesus' mouth say otherwise. He said His kingdom was spiritual one therfore it cannot be here on earth, as so many "Christians" now wrongly believe; if it were, we would have nothing to do for Him! .

We taxpayers are the hired gun in Israel's War on Islam. Baby Bush stands to be used as a warmaking tool perhaps more brutally than Mr. Clinton was. The "Lesser of Two Evils" is still evil."

Minutes before the jobs figures were published, the Fed (Federal Reserve Bank) said it will increase its auctions of cash to banks and expanded the collateral it takes on from bond dealers. The steps are aimed at alleviating strains in credit markets.
Today's report also showed that income growth slowed last month as the economy stalled. The economy's 0.6 percent expansion rate over the six months through March was the weakest performance since the U.S. was last in a recession in 2001.

| Bernanke Urged to Do More to Ease Bank Funding
Bloomberg.com Apr 30, 2008
EditorCE- This quaint Wall Street language means the bankers want the FED to guarantee that none of them will ever lose money dealing with another club member. They want former college professor Bernanke to guarantee everyone's paper, including all the bad mortgages they all hold. No one mentions where these dollars really come from, or how you, the consumer, pays for all this in the end. From Bloomberg: Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke may need to step up his effort to unfreeze bank funding markets as a surge in borrowing costs blunts the impact of the cash auctions the central bank introduced in December....
The cost of obtaining funds for three months has risen by 0.33 percentage point since the Federal Open Market Committee's last meeting on March 18. The jump may force homeowners with variable-rate mortgages and some companies to pay more on their loans at a time when economic growth is faltering.
