Pentagon 'doomsday'? Or are super committee failure fears overblown?
By Anna Mulrine, Staff writer / November 22, 2011
WASHINGTON
It is the Pentagon’s self-described worst nightmare: The failure of the super committee to reach a deficit deal will now trigger what Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has described as a “doomsday” scenario.
What Happens if Italy's Economy Collapses?
By DAVID FRANCIS November 18, 2011
This uncertainty is not contained on European shores. If something catastrophic were to happen to Italy, businesses and consumers in the United States would be negatively affected as well. It's a doomsday scenario to think Italy would fail, but doomsday is no longer unthinkable...

Europe's hidden doomsday machine
Oliver Marc Hartwich 22 Nov 2011
How many crises are there in Europe? First, there is a sovereign debt crisis, which is plain to see just looking at bond markets. Second, there is the crisis of competitiveness in European periphery countries, which is exacerbated by their membership of the monetary union. Third, there is a crisis of Europe’s banking system, which desperately needs recapitalisation.
But there is a fourth European crisis that has so far escaped the attention of even many professional observers. And yet, this fourth and largely unknown crisis has the potential to overshadow all other crises. It is Europe’s escalating balance of payments crisis.

Rich nations 'give up' on new climate treaty until 2020
http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2011/nov/20/rich-nations-give-up-climate-treaty?newsfeed=true
Fiona Harvey, environment correspondent
guardian.co.uk, Sunday 20 November 2011
Governments of the world's richest countries have given up on forging a new treaty on climate change to take effect this decade, with potentially disastrous consequences for the environment through global warming.
Ahead of critical talks starting next week, most of the world's leading economies now privately admit that no new global climate agreement will be reached before 2016 at the earliest, and that even if it were negotiated by then, they would stipulate it could not come into force until 2020.
The eight-year delay is the worst contemplated by world governments during 20 years of tortuous negotiations on greenhouse gas emissions, and comes despite intensifying warnings from scientists and economists about the rapidly increasing dangers of putting off prompt action...
Postponing an operational agreement until 2020 would be fatal to hopes of avoiding catastrophic climate change, according to scientists, economists and green campaigners...
Last year, global carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels rose by more than 5% despite the worst recession for 80 years, according to the IEA.
US 'blocking' climate change fund ahead of Durban conference
Friday 25 November 2011 By Raf Sanchez, Washington
The US is threatening to derail next week's UN summit on climate change by refusing to sign off on a global fund for protecting the environment, it was reported last night.
American negotiators, backed by Saudi Arabia, were said to be holding up the passage of the Green Climate Fund, a $100 billion (£65 billion) pot designed to help developing nations combat climate change.
The fund was one of the few tangible measures to emerge from the 2009 Copenhagen summit and is seen as a crucial gesture by the world's wealthiest nations to show they are prepared to share the cost of cutting emissions.

17 Quotes About The Coming Global Financial Collapse That Will Make Your Hair Stand Up
November 21, 2011
Is the world on the verge of another massive global financial collapse? Yes...
We are heading for another major global financial collapse, and when it happens the U.S. economy is going to get even worse.
The epicenter for the coming global financial collapse is almost certainly going to be in Europe. As you will see below, financial professionals all over the world are sounding the alarm about Europe. It is a disaster that everyone can see coming but that nobody seems to be able to prevent...
#1 Credit Suisse’s Fixed Income Research unit: “We seem to have entered the last days of the euro as we currently know it. That doesn’t make a break-up very likely, but it does mean some extraordinary things will almost certainly need to happen – probably by mid-January – to prevent the progressive closure of all the euro zone sovereign bond markets, potentially accompanied by escalating runs on even the strongest banks.”
#2 Willem Buiter, chief economist at Citigroup: “Time is running out fast. I think we have maybe a few months — it could be weeks, it could be days — before there is a material risk of a fundamentally unnecessary default by a country like Spain or Italy which would be a financial catastrophe dragging the European banking system and North America with it.”
#3 Jim Reid of Deutsche Bank: “If you don’t think Merkel’s tone will change then our investment advice is to dig a hole in the ground and hide.”
#4 David Rosenberg, a senior economist at Gluskin Sheff in Toronto: “Lenders are finding it difficult to finance their day-to-day operations with short-term funding. This is a lot like 2008 but with more twists.”
#5 Christian Stracke, the head of credit research for Pimco: “This is just a repeat of what we saw in 2008, when everyone wanted to see toxic assets off the banks’ balance sheets”
#7 Paul Hickey of Bespoke Investment Group: “More and more, we are hearing anecdotal comments from individual and professionals that this is the most difficult environment they have ever experienced as the market is like a fish flopping around after being taken out of the water.”
#9 Dan Akerson, CEO of General Motors: “The ’08 recession, which was a credit bubble that manifested itself through primarily the real estate market, that was a serious stress….This is much more serious.”
#10 Francesco Garzarelli of Goldman Sachs: “Pressures on Euro area sovereign bond markets have progressively intensified and spread like a wildfire.”
#11 Jim Rogers: “In 2002 it was bad, in 2008 it was worse and 2012 or 2013 is going to be worse still – be careful”
#16 Mark Mobius, the head of the emerging markets desk at Templeton Asset Management: “There is definitely going to be another financial crisis around the corner”
#17 Gerald Celente, founder of The Trends Research Institute: “The whole system is going down. Pull your money out your Fidelity account, your Scwhab accout, and your ETFs.”
Pope: Brotherhood needed in global economic crisis; humanity searching for hope
VATICAN CITY — Pope Benedict XVI appealed on Thursday for courageous displays of brotherhood in the face of the global economic crisis, which he said has left people “searching for signs of hope.”
Rome’s Jesuit Hat Trick
November 22, 2011
http://www.thetrumpet.com/?q=8843.7607.0.0
Rome is about to exert powerful influence on Europe once again.BY RON FRASER
Yet while Hamish Douglass does see the very obvious power of Germany in all this, he apparently does not see the spiritual influence behind it. That spiritual influence was partially revealed last week in a brief allusion made to it by the European Council president, Herman van Rompuy, in a speech in honor of Prof. Paul de Grauwe: “Welcome [to] the club! Today, Mario Draghi, Mario Monti and myself are all three alumni from the Jesuits. Back to basics” (Office of the European Council President, November 17). Those basics are “Holy” Roman basics!
Van Rompuy then alluded to his two Jesuit-educated technocrat compatriots as sharing with him “an idea of a humane market economy, an area where I have always dwelled.” What they all share is the global economic vision of Rome encapsulated in Pope Benedict’s 2009 encyclical, “Caritas in Veritate.”
This hat trick of Jesuit-trained technocrats is but the tip of the iceberg. Yet another Jesuit-educated leader, Spain’s new prime minister-elect, Mariano Rajoy, will soon be added to that list.
Women’s Ordination, Child Abuse, and a World Bank
http://www.renegadecatholic.com/blog/2011/10/misogyny-banking/
Or perhaps I should rant about the Holy See’s simultaneous call for a “Central World Bank” to solve the planet’s current economic woes. One might imagine that after the Vatican Bank scandals, the P2 rogue Masonic lodge infiltration, and the Calvi murder, Rome would be far too embarrassed to lecture the financiers, even if the rest of the international banking community is in disgrace also, but not so. Like the Scarlet Woman of Revelation, Rome has no shame, even though the Institute for Religious Works, as its bank is called in Vatican doublespeak, was fined over 23 million euros last December for money laundering!
These anti-sexual shenanigans relate to the world economic order because the Vatican cannot think in any other way than authoritarian paternalism. As the Roman Church has since Constantine, the pope calls for top-down running of the world by the elite. Let the rich manage the poor, and let the Church guide them both.
The document’s agenda is boldly announced in its title: Towards Reforming the International Financial and Monetary Systems in the Context of Global Public Authority. And it does not hesitate in stating that the goal is nothing less than “a public Authority with universal jurisdiction”; in other words, aworld government.
The pope’s note has the expected criticism of capitalism, bravely opposing “the idolatry of the market”. But this is not to do anybody any favors, but rather to form a New World Order. As the document says (emphasis added):
Of course, this transformation will be made at the cost of a gradual, balanced transfer of a part of each nation’s powers to a world authority and to regional authorities, but this is necessary at a time when the dynamism of human society and the economy and the progress of technology are transcending borders, which are in fact already very eroded in a globalizes world.
The World Central Bank would impose taxes on financial transactions, too.
Pope Goes Against God. Wants New Financial World Order
http://hubpages.com/forum/topic/17008
The New World Order, as Gordon Brown has said, keeps the poor nations under the thumb of the wealthy nations who lend money to them and control them. Well Gordon Brown believes lending to third world countries is good. However the terms have been onerous and the debt could be forgiven to give these nations financial power. It rarely is foregiven.

It appears that factions within the Vatican have decided that God has dumped free will as a guiding principle and replaced it with a George Soros-type type plan for a central economic authority.

Pope Benedict XVI Suggests Pedophilia Was Acceptable in 1970s
Submitted by Michael Allen on Nov 13, 2011
In his traditional Christmas address yesterday to cardinals and officials working in Rome, Pope Benedict XVI claimed that pedophilia wasn't considered an absolute evil as recently as the 1970s and that child pornography is increasingly considered "normal" by society.
"In the 1970s, pedophilia was theorized as something fully in conformity with man and even with children," the Pope said.
"It was maintained - even within the realm of Catholic theology - that there is no such thing as evil in itself or good in itself. There is only a 'better than' and a 'worse than'.Nothing is good or bad in itself." The Pope said abuse revelations in 2010 reached "an unimaginable dimension" which brought "humiliation" on the Church...
Vatican Christmas Shocker! Pope says child rape isn't that bad, was normal back in his day
Belfast Telegraph
Victims of clerical sex abuse have reacted furiously to Pope Benedict's claim yesterday that paedophilia wasn't considered an "absolute evil" as recently as the 1970s.
In his traditional Christmas address yesterday to cardinals and officials working in Rome, Pope Benedict XVI also claimed that child pornography was increasingly considered "normal" by society.
"In the 1970s, paedophilia was theorised as something fully in conformity with man and even with children," the Pope said.
The myriad of Uprisings around the world right now including but not limited to, the Arab Spring, the Indignant Ones, Occupy etc., are likened to the natural processes of our Beloved Earth—thrown up to Defend her and each other and all life. They will evolve and can not be controlled ultimately.
They are like bacterial cultures zeroing in on the myriad of Viruses attacking our Beloved Earth and all life. If the Viruses infect everything-it becomes a zero-sum game.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero%E2%80%93sum_game
In game theory and economic theory, a zero-sum game is a mathematical representation of a situation in which a participant's gain (or loss) of utility is exactly balanced by the losses (or gains) of the utility of other participant(s). If the total gains of the participants are added up, and the total losses are subtracted, they will sum to zero.
Thus cutting a cake, where taking a larger piece reduces the amount of cake available for others, is a zero-sum game if all participants value each unit of cake equally (see marginal utility). In contrast, non-zero-sum describes a situation in which the interacting parties' aggregate gains and losses are either less than or more than zero. A zero-sum game is also called a strictly competitive game. Zero-sum games are most often solved with the minimax theorem which is closely related to linear programming duality,[1] or with Nash equilibrium.
For 2-player finite zero-sum games, the different game theoretic solution concepts of Nash equilibrium, minimax, and maximin all give the same solution. In the solution, players play a mixed strategy.
The Nash equilibrium for a two-player, zero-sum game can be found by solving a linear programming problem. Suppose a zero-sum game has a payoff matrix M where element Mi,j is the payoff obtained when the minimizing player chooses pure strategy i and the maximizing player chooses pure strategy j (i.e. the player trying to minimize the payoff chooses the row and the player trying to maximize the payoff chooses the column). Assume every element of M is positive. The game will have at least one Nash equilibrium. The Nash equilibrium can be found (see ref. [2], page 740) by solving the following linear program to find a vector u:
It has been theorized by Robert Wright in his book Nonzero: The Logic of Human Destiny, that society becomes increasingly non-zero-sum as it becomes more complex, specialized, and interdependent.

THE END OF THE DINOSAUR CIVILIZATION (FOSSIL FUELS, NUCLEAR) AND THE EMERGING CONFLATION OF GLOBAL WARMING, GLOBAL CIVIL WAR, WORLD ECONOMIC DEPRESSION AND THE EXTINCTION OF THE HUMAN SPECIES…

According to an old story, a lord of ancient China once asked his physician, a member of a family of healers, which of them was the most skilled in the art. The physician, whose reputation was such that his name became synonymous with medical science in China, replied, “My eldest sister sees the spirit of sickness and removes it before it takes shape, so her name does not get out of the house. My elder brother cures sickness when it is still extremely minute, so his name does not get out of the neighborhood. As for me, I puncture veins, prescribe medicines, and massage skin, so from time to time my name gets out and is heard among the lords.”
(Dr. Thomas Cleary’s introduction to Sun Tzu’s Art of War translation – note: Sun Tzu was writing at a time when Chinese civilization was embroiled in civil wars.)
War, Global Warming, financial calamity, starvation and suffering has become pornographic fodder world-wide. “The best and brightest” participate and profit by it regardless of their being on the right, left or the middle.
Chaos and Disorder are imbued and dispersed in our Knowledge-, Economic-, Climate-, even Wisdom networks of knowing. Politicians run amuck and Corporations have their blinders on to everything except what legally they are obligated to do – that is to make profit above all else. (see The Corporation documentary – What is a corporation? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pin8fbdGV9Y )
Too late is it now for long-term planning in the phase-out of King Coal and other Fossil Fuels and Nuclear Power and Weapons.
All Tribes, Nations, Communities and Peoples must call and ACT for the Full Abolition of King Coal, Fossil Fuels, Nuclear Power and Weapons immediately.
