As G20 debt reaches record levels, the Global Financial Mafia is ready to orchestrate another big crisis


The lunacy of the current dominant system of financial capitalism couldn't have been depicted more clearly: the debt pile reaches a historic high of $135 trillion in the G20 wealthiest countries! It seems that control has been lost completely, yet, the key centers of the Global Financial Mafia (GFM) are ready to pull off the plug again, which means that we should expect another major crisis in global scale soon.


As UK's Workers Revolutionary Party reports:

This week, the Washington-based International Monetary Fund (IMF) issued another warning that the world capitalist financial system is on the verge of a gigantic crash of historic proportions as the debt pile reaches a historic high of $135 trillion in the G20 wealthiest countries.

The IMF warns that this colossal debt, run up by companies and consumers, will be impossible to service if there is any increase in interest rates or if central banks cut off the supply of cheap money.

Near zero-level interest rates and the policy of pumping trillions of paper money into the banking system after the banking crash of 2008 have had the effect of ‘breeding complacency and allowing a further build-up of financial excess’ as companies use cheap credit to ‘load up on debt’.

Financial investors are also loading up on cheap credit to speculate on ‘risky’ shares which, when they crash, will bring down the world’s stock markets. While these leading financial institutions of capitalism can see the crash coming they have no idea how to prevent it. The same IMF report while calling for central banks to rein in cheap credit and increase interest rates, also warns that in doing so they risk a worldwide debt default. It says: ‘Too quick an adjustment could cause unwanted turbulence and international spillovers.

While clearly warns about the consequences, IMF, one of the central GFM tools, gives the signal for another big meltdown.

A small-scale picture of what we will see in the close future can be identified in Greece. It is obvious that the European Central Bank (ECB), another central GFM tool, deliberately keeps Greece under debt slavery, not only through financial coups, like the one the country experienced in 2015, but also, by limiting the flow of money to the country. This was done by excluding Greece from the latest Quantitative Easing (QE) program, or even, by withholding profits made by the Greek debt crisis.

Indeed, as RT reports:

The European Central Bank (ECB) has profited handsomely from its holdings of Greek government debt, according to a document seen by the Financial Times.

A written response to a request from a Greek MEP showed the bank collected €7.8 billion in interest payments between 2012-2016 on Greek sovereign bonds acquired under its Securities and Markets bond-buying program (SMP).

Profits are usually redistributed among the 19 eurozone central banks.

In 2016, the ECB collected more than €1.1 billion in interest payments on the nearly €20 billion worth of Greek bonds it holds, according to German daily Suddeutsche Zeitung.

An analysis from the Jubilee Debt Campaign estimated Greece’s other creditor, the International Monetary Fund, had made €2.5 billion from its loans to the country.

According to Leo Hoffmann-Axthelm from Transparency International, the ECB’s participation in Greece’s bailout had led to a “conflict of interest.”

The ECB expects repayments on its Greek bonds with one hand while approving Greece’s reform progress with the other. The Bank is literally sitting on all sides of the table,” said Hoffmann-Axthelm.

So, the ECB is ready to reduce money supply inside a still-struggling-to-recover eurozone. Through another debt crisis, the ECB will be able to take complete control of most of the countries and, furthermore, will help the European banking cartel become more powerful by eliminating much more competitors.

The result: more cuts, more austerity, more privatizations, more destruction of the welfare state, more destructive neoliberal policies for all eurozone members, as it happened in the Greek experiment. So, maybe the imaginary dialogue between the “bosses” is not that imaginary after all.

Apart from Brexit and any possible consequences for the neoliberal globalists, there is probably another thing that the international banking cabal truly fears. That it may lose control of money supply monopoly through de-centralized and uncontrolled types of money like Bitcoin & other Cryptocurrencies. Because, first of all, it will lose progressively the ability to manufacture financial crises, as more and more people globally will choose to make transactions through these Cryptocurrencies.

This prospect could explain why Jamie Dimon recently declared war on Bitcoin, and why the banksters may be feeling quite uncomfortable right now by seeing its price recovering.

Moreover, in case that entire countries will choose to adopt a type of Cryptocurrency, it will be extremely difficult to be controlled through debt and artificial crises. Then, the international banking cabal will start seeing its final days.

Just when the DNC "barons" openly call for a coup against Bernie Sanders, Politico accidentally reveals Bloomberg's real mission: "slow Sanders' delegate march" on Super Tuesday

globinfo freexchange
The sequence of events should not be considered random. It all started with a key question on the recent Democratic-primaries debate stage in Las Vegas.
MSNBC's Chuck Todd (you know, the one who described Bernie Sanders supporters as a "digital brownshirt brigade"), asked the candidates if the person with the most delegates at the end of the primary season should be the nominee even if they don't have a majority of the delegates. Of all the candidates, only Sanders answered positively, without hesitation. Something which, of course, shouldn't surprise us much.
The whole matter circulated around the corporate and the independent media for a while, with the progressives attempting to capitalize Bernie's response, in order to demonstrate his deeply democratic "reflexes" against the rest of the establishment candidates.
But it seems that the question was put in place by the establishment in order to test the "reflexes" of …

Another astroturfing operation against Bernie Sanders fails miserably

... right before the battle in South Carolina
globinfo freexchange
We are about to lose count of the number and different types of smear campaigns and dirty tricks that the DNC establishment has tried against Bernie Sanders so far. 
As the DNC "barons" and their super-wealthy donors understand now that Sanders' big power lies within a continuously growing, progressive movement behind him, they are trying to deal with it through the practice of astroturfing. In short, they are trying to undermine Bernie's authentic, grassroots movement, with a virtual one.

We witnessed another operation of this type during the latest Democratic debate, right before the next primaries battle in South Carolina. The operation involved an audience of supposedly authentic, ordinary voters, who, quite strangely enough, booed Sanders and cheered the billionaire Bloomberg!

Yet, one more time, progressive independent media (along with Sanders), exposed the new trick immediately.

Η πανδημία ακυρώνει προσωρινά τα σχέδια των νεοφιλελεύθερων τζιχαντιστών του Μητσοτακικού καθεστώτος

globinfo freexchange
Η αυτοδυναμία που πήρε η χειρότερη δεξιά της μεταπολίτευσης στις τελευταίες εκλογές, άνοιξε διάπλατα το δρόμο στη φράξια των νεοφιλελεύθερων τζιχαντιστών της, προκειμένου να πραγματοποιήσουν την τελική τους επέλαση ενάντια στο κοινωνικό κράτος.
Είναι σίγουρο ότι στα σχέδια υπήρχε η ιδιωτικοποίηση και του Εθνικού Συστήματος Υγείας, καθώς η φράξια ενισχύθηκε σημαντικά με την εκλογή φανατικών του νεοφιλελεύθερου δόγματος, όπως ο Μπάμπης Παπαδημητρίου.
Ήδη κάνουν το γύρο του διαδικτύου τα ηχητικά του Παπαδημητρίου που δήλωνε πως "Από τα κρατικά νοσοκομεία τα μισά τουλάχιστον πρέπει να κλείσουν. Γιατί είναι φορείς ασθενειών, γιατί έχουν πρόβλημα ...", με τον Άρη Πορτοσάλτε να συμφωνεί και να επαυξάνει λέγοντας πως πρέπει "όχι απλώς να κλείσουν, αλλά να γκρεμιστούν". 

Όμως η επέλαση της πρόσφατης πανδημίας, λόγω κορονοϊού, έμελλε να αναβάλει, τουλάχιστον προς το παρόν, τα "υγρά όνειρα" των φανατικών του Μητσοτακικού καθεστώτος για αθρόες ιδ…

It's actually the liberal elites that are now on the ropes, not Bernie Sanders

globinfo freexchange

Bernie Sanders' latest defeat in another round of the Democratic presidential primaries was received by most of the liberal corporate media almost as his political ending. Just take a quick look at the headlines. You will immediately recognize a bizarre anxiety by most of them to portray Joe Biden as the ultimate winner in the mother of all battles.
One more time, the liberal apparatus has been exposed, giving one more evidence that the liberal elites are considering Sanders as a biggest threat than even Donald Trump. One more time, the liberal establishment completely justified the perception circulated among many progressives: corporate Democrats would rather lose to Trump again than give Sanders the leadership of the party.

So, why all this anxiety?

First of all, the primaries are not over yet. Sanders may have suffered another defeat, but he won't give up easily. And the fact that he is still there, ready to crush Biden in a debate with just the two of…

Bernie's most powerful secret weapon is not Latinos

globinfo freexchange
A lot of discussion circulated around the independent and the corporate media about Sanders campaign ability to approach successfully the Latino community.
Progressive reporters and journalists of The Hill's Rising show went further on the issue, claiming that the Latino vote is Bernie's secret weapon on Super Tuesday, as it has been proven to work so far in the primaries.

While, undoubtedly, the Latino vote will be crucial on the outcome of the Democratic primaries process, it is not Bernie's biggest secret weapon. Bernie has another potential secret weapon - much more powerful - that could make him sweep the primaries and even grab the number of delegates that the DNC demands. And the good news is that he is the only one who could activate it.
Right before the decisive Super Tuesday battle, two DNC agents, Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar, were ordered to withdraw their nominations in order to unify the moderate vote around the "dinosaur" J…

REVEALED: Chief magistrate in Assange case received financial benefits from secretive partner organisations of UK Foreign Office

The senior judge overseeing the extradition proceedings of WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange received financial benefits from two partner organisations of the British Foreign Office before her appointment, it can be revealed.

Part 4 - Same addresses
Declassified has discovered that the addresses given by Lord Arbuthnot and other parliamentarians for Tertulias and Tatlidil have been the same — despite no obvious connection between the two organisations other than the UK Foreign Office. All the addresses are residential with no clear reason why they would be official addresses of high-level Foreign Office-linked fora.
In 2012, Arbuthnot recorded in his parliamentary register of interests that the address of both organisations was a Grade II listed house in the village of Cowlinge, Suffolk, which has a population of just over 600 people. From 2013-16, the address changed to a house in Higham, a small village with 140 people, also in Suffolk.

'You'll see rebellion': Sanders supporters denounce open threats by superdelegates to steal nomination

"The Democrats might be able to stop Sanders, but in doing so they would destroy their party's own electoral prospects."
by Jake Johnson Nearly 100 Democratic superdelegates told the New York Times in interviews this week that if Sen. Bernie Sanders does not arrive at the party's 2020 convention in July with a majority of pledged delegates, they are willing to thwart the will of the plurality of primary voters—and potentially risk damaging Democrats' chances of defeating President Donald Trump—in order to stop Sanders from winning the nomination. 
"In a reflection of the establishment's wariness about Mr. Sanders," the Times reported Thursday morning, "only nine of the 93 superdelegates interviewed said that Mr. Sanders should become the nominee purely on the basis of arriving at the convention with a plurality, if he was short of a majority."
The superdelegates, many of whom are current elected officials, are "willing to risk intrapar…

'Organized money vs. Organized People': New Sanders memo details stark choice between Biden and Bernie

"Voters face a decision between Bernie's working-class movement and his message of change, and Biden's effort to—in his own words—make sure that 'nothing will fundamentally change' for the billionaire class."
by Jake Johnson
Sen. Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign sent a memo to staffers and surrogates Monday evening spotlighting "stark" policy differences between Sanders and Joe Biden on Social Security, trade, and other major issues after the former vice president received a wave of high-profile endorsements on the eve of Super Tuesday.
The memo, authored by Sanders campaign manager Faiz Shakir and senior adviser Jeff Weaver, characterizes Biden's endorsements from Pete Buttigieg, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Beto O'Rourke, and former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid as part of an effort by the former vice president to "coalesce the Washington establishment and its big donors around his campaign to protect the status quo."…
