Complete with ethnic cleansing of the Albanian population. Uncle Sam is picking real winners.

Now with full cavity searches!

As usual, some gems are to be found in the latest Marvel movie.

WAT

Looks like they figured out what was cool about it.

Suckers

BONUS: Bloomberg sez: Apple should bailout Greece!

Scare the Russian subs off with your homosexuality!

BONUS: CNN Sez: BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID!!!!1

As usual, ED knows the truth. Jimbo == shekel gruber

See how ridiculous the regs sound when you flip the script on what industry is "socialized" and which is not?

As if you can be any less and seriously considered for POTUS.

Hooray!

Which is "good enough" for most purposes. So Russia is actually doing OK when it comes to the tech mfg. base. If they keep up the low tax, deflation and, low regulation policy, this will be a force to be reckoned with in the future.

Slashdot commenter sums it up:

Just one example of how the sanctions are nothing but good for Russia. Nobody in the West seems to get that. You can't make Russians suffer; they do that on their own.

Having grown up in the small town, I can attest to the fact that weirdos in the city seem like conformists compared to eccentrics out in the country.

Shocked, simply shocked. It really is a shame, not for the public, but for these companies' long term futures -- their next generation of chemists are going to have to make the same mistakes over and over again without knowledge of prior failures.

Meanwhile, guardsmen injured in our evil wars go untreated.

Where at least I think I'm free...

Coming soon: Comics vending machines.

Wonder which one it is. Given that it's going to poor tribesmen in ths south, you can probably guarantee it's the bad batches they're prohibited by law from selling to anyone who matters.

Hyperventilating feds, as usual.

Whenever the MEK gets involved, you can be assured there is neocon idiocy nearby. Doesn't hurt that one of the arch-neocons is holding the bag on a bunch of Argie bonds which have 0 hope of full redemption.

I still consider the death of Nisman to be suspicious; both the neocons and the Kirchner government are wicked enough to have stooped to such a murder. Such a plot would require the gun's owner to be "in on it" to some degree, though; so that trail will likely be cold forever if there's anything to it.

Fascinating piece of propaganda there. GoldCore debunks it:

As for Putin's economic credentials we would point out that under his stewardship living standards in Russia have consistently improved whereas in the same period living standards for the bulk of people in the West have been in decline.

Like the electoral college in the US, the votes don't matter, behind the scenes horse trading with the body controlling who gets seated matters.

If you believe their statements, anyhow. That said, the FED will torture the data until it does what they want it to, so I suspect Wenzel's analysis of the bureaucrat mind is probably solid. Of course, they still have an upper bound of 3% being the point at which the USG is instantaneously insolvent, so don't expect anything more than a few bp, which is close to meaningless. That is, unless the entire goal is a controlled demolition of the economy...

So, as suspected, the pakis and saudis knew all along where he was, and the idiot americans had to get the info from a walk in. Of course, he had to be killed, as the saudis were worried he'd blab on their involvement in 9/11 and the pakis didn't wanna say they gave him up because it would hurt their relations with the Taliban (they were using him as a hostage). Cover ups for everyone!

Much like the leader of ISIS, rumors of his premature death may have been greatly exaggerated? or not. Coulda still been a body double, though highly unlikely. He was in ill health attended by doctors, which makes sense considering his earlier troubles.

BONUS: Interesting perspective from PCR, considering the previous article. I suppose we'll never really know whether the guy the Pakis said was OBL was actually OBL; though if fake, it would help explain why the Pakis and Americans were so dead set against him being taken alive. If the Pakis thought giving him to the Americans would inflame the Taliban (and no doubt the Saudis), imagine their anger if they realized the Pakis were also deceiving them for a decade. It would also explain why the Americans were on board with killing the supposed #1 source of intel on 9/11 that existed.

It seems that no matter how sloppy you get, simply killing enough of the right people ensures the coverup will last for all time.

See, he understood that FRB is fraud, and pushed it to the limit. The best way to rob a bank is own one. The best part? The banks got bailed out! HA!
