    The people in the background will release more money into the market if it helps maintain the status quo and make sure they make more money longer term.

      Funny, but it actually does have some good articles on there along with the crap. Better signal to noise ratio than most websites and magazines commenting on this stuff.
      WHS, and the commenters are pretty forthright in their criticism of misguided or axe-grinding article writers.

      The trick is to stop reading a comment (or article) as soon as you see any of the words "bankster", "zionist", "illuminati", "sheeple", and a few others

      Any other "stop reading comment now" trigger words, other than "the" and "and" ?

        Hyperinflation is on the way. It is a foregone conclusion. Over time all fiat currency trends to zero.

        The only question is how long the dollar (petrodollar) can be artificially held up. If our invasion of Syria goes well and we can then invade Iran successfully the USD and all the paper tied to it might last a while. We'll see.

              Yes.

              What's the bet.

                That "a coalition" will engage in military action in or against Iran within 10 years (probably a lot less but not into losing cash on technicalities) and/or attempt to overthrow the Iranian government on some pretence or other.

                  If Iran get invaded, it'll be carnage all round. Not exactly the most accommodating of neighbours either.

                    That's far to vague and over to long a time-scale.

                    It's like saying : I predict there will be a plane crash in March within the next decade. ( There will be, you heard it here first ).


                    We needs names in the coalition ( hint : Israel & the US? ) and a shorter time period.

                      After all, the record of "success" since 2001 isn't exactly inspiring.
                      Varying definitions on success.

                      Tony Blair is a success. Discuss.
