Biderman calls for peaceful overthrow of the parasites here in the US , Spain and its lying pols look like they might be the first European country to face a revolt , are wee seeing Japan come of age - the first asian revolt ? And considering the debacle of Liborgate and this news smash that Gordon Brown dumped England's gold at fire sale prices to bail out JP Morgan and GS , why the heck aren't the Brits out in the streets right now ? Probably the same reasons we Americans sat on our collectives asses while Tarp was forced through and Treasury and the Fed gave trillions to bailout our privately owned banks..... on

Biderman Demands New 'Non-Parasitic' Constitutional Convention

"If we continue forward in the direction we are headed, what lies ahead is an almost certain major economic calamity" is the subtle introduction from the Bay-Area baddest bull-crusher. Charles Biderman, CEO of TrimTabs, is angry - and you wouldn't like him when he's angry - as he believes "it no longer matter who wins elections, because the special interest groups control, and in some cases own, the representatives" and the US needs a new constitutional convention. He has touched on this before but his ire is very clear here as he sees the "special interest groups as parasites" and believes that due to the rapid changes in social media technologies that a new way of governing ourselves is possible (though we still doubt it). "The road ahead to a new constitutional convention will not be easy," he concludes, given the big bucks will try and convince us they are necessary, but it appears Lewis Black's avuncular alter ego is ready to take 'em on.

AJISAI revolution / La révolution des hortensias -Japanese having revolution

Ajisai = Hydrangea [Wikipedia]

↑ Protest of 7/6/2012

7/11/2012

16 months have passed. None of the official data has been released from the government,but thousands of the death are suspected to have something to do with radiation. From children to old people, from Fukushima to Tokyo, and even to California, countless number of lives are threatened, unborn lives are deprived.

Men and women, who were healthy until 311, are suffering from unknown symptoms and government is prohibiting hospitals from treating them properly.

To downplay the worst nuclear accident, governments, massmedia, companies and public organizations have been concealing information, kept manipulating people.

On the pretext of “stable power supply”, Japanese government and power companies are boiling water in the worst way in space -nuclear power. From India, England, and to Japan, you see numbers of dead bodies in the bottom of the vessels.

It’s not only fallout from Fukushima, but it’s also radioactive debris and contaminated food to kill us survivors. Knowing they are all contaminated, Japanese government is moving the debris to all around in Japan, and even to Saipan US, instead of moving children and citizens.

and now, no food is left uncontaminated.

What can we feed our babies ? Japanese government made our babies the final disposal site.

We have no information, no safe food, nowhere to go, but the government restarted Ohi nuclear plant and they are planning to restart Monju, fast-breeding reactor in August.

Will we let them kill ourselves to the last man?

No, we won’t.

What the government restarted was not the nuclear plant. They restarted our spirit.

We will fight to the last man.

but we are having more and more last men. From Osaka, Chiba, Ohi, and in Tokyo, more and more people are joining protest.

Ohi three hundred showed us how to fight. Japanese government restarted the nuclear plant, but we will never give up.

Please watch us standing. We were the sleeping crane for years. Wings are broken, feathers fell out, but we are finally waking up. We are going to stand up again and spread the wings to kill all the ticks that bred while we were sleeping too long. We are already exposed too much, but there are still new lives underneath the feathers.

On 6/29/2012, the wings of 200,000 people surrounded official residence.

The next Friday, police tried to keep us underground though streets and official residence are all made by our own tax.

but this is just the beginning.

Japanese and French named the series of protest “AJISAI revolution / La révolution des hortensias”. Ajisai is hydrangea.

It blooms in June, a lot of small flowers make one big flower. It has variety of colors and one flower changes its color as well.

This protest has nothing to do with ideology. This is the survival instinct of human nature.

We will never forgive the government, and will never forget what they have done.

We are going to change our country by ourselves.

This is the war of the truth to annihilate all the lies of government.

Please keep us supported and tell your neighbor what we are doing. This is the war against mass media, power companies, and all those tax eaters to get our land back.

Gordon Brown Dumped Britain’s Gold to Save Goldman Sachs & JP Morgan

Photo: REX/ALAMY

The Telegraph’s Thomas Pascoe has released a riveting account of why Gordon Brown dumped 400 tonnes of Britain’s gold (which has been dubbed Brown’s Bottom) intentionally at the lowest price possible.
Pascoe’s sources have informed him that one globally significant US bank was short 2 tonnes of gold at the time of the 400 tonne gold dump.

Goldman Sachs reportedly approached Treasury Head of Commodities Gavyn Davies to explain its dire predicament, and the immediate global financial consequences should The Vampire Squid default on its gold delivery obligations.

Pascoe alleges that Gordon Brown used various mechanisms (telegraphing the sale, using an auction rather than the London fix, etc) to intentionally sell Britain’s gold reserves at the lowest possible price to save the necks of Goldman Sachs’ massive gold shorts (which likely included JP Morgan which was even more massively short gold at the time).

When Brown decided to dispose of almost 400 tonnes of gold between 1999 and 2002, he did two distinctly odd things…

It seemed almost as if the Treasury was trying to achieve the lowest price possible for the public’s gold. It was.

ABSOLUTE MUST READ!!!

From the Telegraph:

One decision stands out as downright bizarre, however: the sale of the majority of Britain’s gold reserves for prices between $256 and $296 an ounce, only to watch it soar so far as $1,615 per ounce today.

When Brown decided to dispose of almost 400 tonnes of gold between 1999 and 2002, he did two distinctly odd things.

First, he broke with convention and announced the sale well in advance, giving the market notice that it was shortly to be flooded and forcing down the spot price. This was apparently done in the interests of “open government”, but had the effect of sending the spot price of gold to a 20-year low, as implied by basic supply and demand theory.

Second, the Treasury elected to sell its gold via auction. Again, this broke with the standard model. The price of gold was usually determined at a morning and afternoon “fix” between representatives of big banks whose network of smaller bank clients and private orders allowed them to determine the exact price at which demand met with supply.

The auction system again frequently achieved a lower price than the equivalent fix price. The first auction saw an auction price of $10c less per ounce than was achieved at the morning fix. It also acted to depress the price of the afternoon fix which fell by nearly $4.

It seemed almost as if the Treasury was trying to achieve the lowest price possible for the public’s gold. It was.   …

This plan worked brilliantly when gold fell and the other asset – for the bank at the heart of this case, yen-backed securities – rose. When the prices moved the other way, the banks were in trouble.

This is what had happened on an enormous scale by early 1999. One globally significant US bank in particular is understood to have been heavily short on two tonnes of gold, enough to call into question its solvency if redemption occurred at the prevailing price.

Goldman Sachs, which is not understood to have been significantly short on gold itself, is rumoured to have approached the Treasury to explain the situation through its then head of commodities Gavyn Davies, later chairman of the BBC and married to Sue Nye who ran Brown’s private office.

Faced with the prospect of a global collapse in the banking system, the Chancellor took the decision to bail out the banks by dumping Britain’s gold, forcing the price down and allowing the banks to buy back gold at a profit, thus meeting their borrowing obligations.
