the greatest heist in the history of the us...an orchestrated & masterminded theft
Edited on Mon Sep-22-08 10:15 PM by xiamiam
No bid contracts...billions missing in Iraq...billions missing from the pentagon...kbr, halliburton, blackwater..katrina ...billions in bailout...billions in Iraq...

I remember when I first heard the initial request for 40 or 60 billion for Iraq...I thought it was an outrageous number...I never remember in my 50 or so years numbers like that being thrown about in such a cavalier fashion..and then millions, billions started ending up missing...accounting missing billions at the pentagon..etc etc etc

and now 700 billion for wall street bailout while foreclosures are commonplace...

the part that is so troubling is that we get used to it..they do it, it gets reported..and is media news for a day or two, and then its just okie dokie.....and the greatest heist in the history of the world continues to go down...right in front of our noses...

1. They are trying to totally clean out the entire vault before fleeing to a country that
does not have an extradition treaty with the US

2. enough money has already been stolen to manipulate the economy...
that combined with those same thiefs being in a position to use the system to fund their game..and leave us in a mess...its a scary thing...
