Tony Blair isn't in this omg article per say, but.......

Quote
The Vatican called on Monday for the establishment of a “global public authority” and a “central world bank” to rule over financial institutions that have become outdated and often ineffective in dealing fairly with crises. The document from the Vatican’s Justice and Peace department should please the “Occupy Wall Street” demonstrators and similar movements around the world who have protested against the economic downturn.


Why the hell the writer would think OWS would be pleased is beyond me. If anyone in or out of OWS ever had any doubts re: the new world order, I would think that'd be put to rest now.


Quote
It called for the establishment of “a supranational authority” with worldwide scope and “universal jurisdiction” to guide economic policies and decisions.


Holy Fuck, get thee behind me you wicked servant!

I think the Vatican needs to be more transparent about its own financial holdiings before they presume to lecture others.

Freedlander's e-mail.
Quote
“(Kent) told me he will whole-heartedly (sic) support the Huntsville IMC at cabinet and wanted to make sure we pass along our pitch to Tony Clement ASAP,” says the email addressed to Doughty and copied to two other senior municipal officials.
“Peter tells me that right now MPs are being asked to provide infrastructure projects to cabinet for direct approvals by Baird and Flaherty. They earlier shovels get in the ground the better.”


Clement -
Quote
“That’s false and ridiculous, He doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”

Desmond Tutu - you gotta love the guy - he's made some people at Davos very angry and very uncomfortable, in fact human beans like neo-cons simply won't know how to handle it. Tutu speaks the truth, there really is nothing left to lose.

We dont' have a thread on Anonymous shutting down websites. I don't want to start one because I've looked at tons of threads that went nowhere, but are still sitting there. In any case I just went to the CIA site and it is still down *giggling like a skoolgoil*

    Anonymous has left an extended message of demands on the Greek website, warning that unless the IMF withdraws from the country and the government resigns, all debts of Greek citizens will be wiped clean. :applause
