Live Webcast From Biggest Spanish Protest Yet

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Last year video of Greek protests turning violent was enough to force Waddell & Reed to sell several thousand ES contracts which crashed the market. Will this year's catalyst be Spain (which may just be too big for the CDO known as the EFSF to bail out)? While the gatherings in Spain have been getting bigger (and judging by this live feed, the one tonight is the biggest yet), they have so far been peaceful. Yet with 21% unemployment, and according to some over half of youth without a job, just how long until someone decides to send a flaming Molotov cocktail at the riot police? Watch a live webcast from Spain below.

The European Union 'dream' is rapidly delining into a debt-based farce and necessary rejection.

Denmark reinstating border controls, no one wants to give Greece a "new" 'bailout' deal, or the extra e60 billion Greece just 'discovered' they will need on top of the 110 billion over 3-years, they already 'agreed', to 'borrow'.

Ha! ... good god! Here's the deal in a nutshell;

Greek public debt  = half a trillion USD bucks

~10 million population

Therefore 100,000 USD of public debt for every man woman and child in Greece.

Severely depressed impoverished economy ... plus this does not even include the additional exorbitant compounding usury! ... only a complete idiot (or an EU Commissioner) would fail to grasp they're just shuffling deck chairs whilst desperately ignoring the fact they're dead men walking.

The bankers know they cant pay, but if the objective is to make like the Indian quarry owners they are on the right path.

Matter of time before Greek leadership does right by its people and defaults or the the general population goes beyond tax defiance and moves to open revolt.

It's ok will all the people focused on a DSK being lynched on public tv, like a coliseum game under Caesar, makes it pretty plausible the US of A is afraid of people starting to march in the street for real justice, and not the frigging word settlement.... the Govt started noticing websites with divergent opinions were starting to have a serious impact on their credibility.

DSK being once again used as a diversion allows a complete panic in Europe, fake new terrorists to pop in ireland "a la" IRA revival, terrorists in libya, in whereveria , spain youth walking in the streets inspired by Egypt. Syria, Iran, Bahrein and the Blackwater little army squad, China, Fukushima, Mississipi floods... So many black swans and yet the market doesnt give a fck. What will happen when black swans stop and we are back to business as usual ? Dow shoots to 30k ?

Man , start smelling the coffee because if the US floor votes yes on this thing ! Patriot Act will look like starter and here's the main dish.

The US of A knows the situation is critic and government might start fearing for an uprising , so they decide they might aswell pull the world in their downward spiral to hell with them.

And by the time the uprising happens we will all be deemed terrorists for disagreeing with the power in place and finish under complete slavery or in jail.

Click below to watch YouTube's Harisebon7777777 short videos. He should be commended for his work on measuring the radiation levels in Tokyo. The device he uses costs about $1000, which I am sure he has paid out of his own pocket to provide us with the truth of what is really going on in Japan.

It is eerie to watch his videos. Typically, his hand is shown holding a geiger counter in some public place with people walking all around him as if there was nothing of importance going on; while all along, the geiger counter in his hand reveals what is really happening. Harisebon is documenting the slow irradiation of the Japanese archipelago. A visual unfolding of a tragedy.

While watching these videos. it is hard not to wonder how many of the folks one sees walking down the street will come down with cancer in 10, 20 or 30 years. In fact, the videographer's life itself is in peril. Poignant.

Go to Harisebon's YouTube channel and give him a shout-out. He deserves it.

Lloyd Blankfein just came in on conference video.  He says as long as they don't blame American Jew bankers, and the molotov cocktails aren't thrown at traveling Jews in Madrid "it's all good baby!!"

With 21% unemployment it explains why a couple thousand prople are milling around the square not doing or buying a damned thing.  Don't worry guys.  45 more minutes until socialist-inspired manditory break.  Then you can get back to doing nothing!!

I was at the Plaza del Sol last night. It was amazing to see a true democratic peaceful protest in action. I was very impressed with the organisation. They even had volunteers cleaning the plaza, food and water was donated by local resteraunts. The best part was hearing the speeches and reading all the signs, and quotes from many political leaders past and present. This type of protest would never have taken place back in the USA currently, it would be considered unpatriotic. Our founding fathers would have been proud to see this protest in action. Most of my friends back home when they think of protesting the government and making some change, they run out the local gun show and stockup... thats not how your get err done... I pitty those fools.....
