Who’s Behind the Financial Crisis?
Cliff Kincaid

The New York Times is quoting a spokesman for George Soros as saying that the well-known hedge fund operator is guilty of no wrong-doing in connection with the financial upheaval currently affecting Greece and Europe as a whole. But Zubi Diamond, author of the powerful new book, Wizards of Wall Street, says the agenda of Soros and other short sellers is clear. Their purpose, he says, is “to loot America and any foreign country which invested in America. Greece was one of them. Iceland was ravaged and annihilated.â€

Diamond is absolutely right! I was astounded at the removal of the uptick rule (which basically stated that no one can short an investment unless there has been an uptick in the price of the investment they are looking to short.) Removal of this has created a free, do what you want type of market. And they certainly are doing what they want, no matter the damage they leave behind.

It has all been deliberate. Everything Wall Street, the Treasury and the Government say is a lie, the exact opposite of what is true. We're deep into our Period of Ironies and Opposites.
