LOL (all i can say)
This is step one.
Step two is seeing "CypriotCupid.com" web ads -- that when you know the economy has tanked and they have only one asset left....
Why, I really do believe this ship will sink......
I feel so bad for these people. I just hope they direct their anger at the right targets instead of at each other.
just wait til its our turn
i shudder to think of it
In the US our psychotic cops would have already opened fire.
@otto skorzeny
We'll be lucky if its just the cops. Probably declare marital law and call out the new homeland division to swamp our asses. Drones overhead! Drones overhead!
Drones overhead! is the new "Charlie in the trees!"
Its about time these Cyprioters start getting off their arse and working together.
Larry Motherfucking FINK is long riot cams
"Why, I really do believe this ship will sink.."
~~~
Cyprus IS an island, after all...
Clearly, in the fotos, the crowds are tightly forming... & it is a well known phenomenon that when this occurs, on islands, they tip over & sink into the sea...
I learned that on C-SPAN...
“just wait til its our turn - i shudder to think of it”
Why do you think the guns are being taken away??
It’s amazing to me how quickly the riot gear comes out. And this is CYPRUS!
You want to see some scared politicians, the citizens need to start wearing that sh!t!!
The reason bank holiday has been posponed until next week is obvious: CYPRUS IS DUMPING THE EURO AND GOING BACK TO THE LIRA!
Merkel's theft of depositors money has backfired and all of europe is waking up to the fact that the EU was yet another attempt by the teutonic nazi oligarchs to enslave the continent (and the world).
Like I posted months (or was it years) ago: It is only a matter of time until Merkel's charred remains are found by the entrance to her bunker.
edit: Gestapo helicopters collide over Berlin DURING RIOT TRAINING DRILLS:
http://www.thelocal.de/national/20130321-48671.html
The oligarchs know full blown revolution is coming! They are going to kill all rioters!
Good news is when they set everything on fire you do't have to go far for water
Don't these amateurs know you need a good riot dog?
Its not an official riot until the molotov cocktails come out
march madness states side mich state whooping valpo
Is it me, or are there more guys with cameras running around than rioters ?
All of this, and me here without any popcorn. At least I can still go to the ATM to get pop...oh shit. They've had capital controls on popcorn too. Now those motherfuckers have gone too far!!!
those are images middle class Europeans there not the unemployed youth standing around smoking cigaretes and texting like in the horrific images Graham Summers showed us from the Italian riots of 2012
By the way, there is no PM's available to buy there. Only Bitcoins and mentos to move into.

Should we feel bad for these people????
WHEN THE FUCK ARE YOU GOING TO LEARN???
Another government screwing its' own people. Yeah, when the fuck are we going to learn!?
I'm telling you; the human biped is fucked
@ Ahmeexnal You need to read deeper into the story you posted. The training exercise was only for football game riots. We all can go back to watching American Idol now
because there's a difference?
San Diego, California is a Coastal City. I lived through 25% of our County Burning Down. Who cares about a little fire? Even the Coastal Waters could not extinguish that Inferno.
Can you spell F...I...R...E...S...T...O...R...M ???
Perhaps the cops are wearing Google Glasses that display rioters deposit amounts on CallOuts so they can be targeted and their now ownerless assets siezed. Sounds like a good book. Oh wait, it is. Freedom by Danial Suarez
I think you need to replace teutonic and gestapo with zionist and mossad
"The oligarchs know full blown revolution is coming! They are going to kill all rioters!"
They can try anyway...
Hitler is believed to have died in Argentina in 1964.
You seem upset that Merkel wont let Southern Europe suck her tits anymore, without tickling her clit.
filtering every event through a porn-meme lens must be incredibly taxing to your system - with all your blood concentrated in your lap, how do you ever leave your chair?

I know. I already rehypothicated her mustache.
"Merkel's theft of depositors money has backfired"
That's right, Angela was heaing to Cyprus with a big boobpack, hoping to sneak into the banks and pad her brassiere while nobody was looking ....
Or, gee, maybe this is the way it happened: Merkel decided that German workers shouldn't have to have their earnigs taken at gunpoint (i.e., taxed) and used to bail out Cypriot bankers and Russian billionaiires, and that Cyprus should share in the pain of the collapse of their own economy rather than riding the German workers' backs - whereupon it was actually a Danish minister and the Cyprus President who decided to go after bank account savings. Nowhere, notime, nohow did Germany EVER instruct or request Cyprus to raise its share of the bailout by "taxing" bank accounts, and indeed Germany greeted the decision to tax accounts under the insured level of 100,000 Euros with derision (over 100,000, that's not insured, you have counterparty risk just like investing in bonds, and hence caveat emptor).
Indeed Merkel recently tried to nix a Cypriot proposal to loot the pension system to save the banks.
If you want to falsely and gratuitously blame someone, blame Israel ;-)

That's right, Angela snuck into Cyprus bank vaults at night, while nobody was looking, with a big boobpack - hoping to sneak into the banks and pad her brassiere, reckoning that not even the TSA would dare search there .... But then, lo and behold, as she was climbing the stairs of her Swastika-adorned German jet, the moneypacks came loose and one large bundle of notes bouned onto the tarmac ... FOILED AGAIN!
Or, gee, you moronic racist prick, maybe we can put the German-bashing on hold for a second and examine what really happened, to wit: Merkel and her cabinet decided that German workers shouldn't have to have their earnigs taken at gunpoint (i.e., taxed) and used to bail out Cypriot bankers and Russian billionaiires, and that Cyprus should share in the pain of the collapse of their own economy rather than riding the German workers' backs - whereupon it was actually a Danish minister and the Cyprus President who decided to go after bank account savings. Nowhere, notime, nohow did Germany EVER instruct or request Cyprus to fund its share of the bailout by "taxing" bank accounts, and indeed Germany greeted the decision to tax accounts under the insured level of 100,000 Euros with derision (over 100,000, that's not insured, you have counterparty risk just like investing in bonds, and hence caveat emptor).

Isn't Cyprus located in the general vicinity of Atlantis ... which really DID sink? Another Bankster end-game, no doubt.
Wrong continent
Blue up in a pyroplastic explosion, and then sank.
Bullish.
No you learned that from Congressman Hank Johnson Democrat from Georia worrying about Guam tipping over if the Marines moved there.

ROFL! For anybody not knowing what you're talking about:

So... THAT is how they lose their gold? (fucking underwater pirates are a clever bunch!)
they need to locate the nearist rothchilds owned castle and tear it down.
Cyprus, its banks, and its people were involved in money laundering for too long. Enough is enough.
Please stop feel sorry for these scumbags and gangsters losing some of their loot.
It is incredible. The zionist banking mafia is collapsing and ZeroHedge readers feel sorry for them.
People, you are fu-king hypocrites.
Nobody gives a shit about Cyprus, what they care about is the way the banksters are handling the situation
They need the money, so they turn the buttons until the correct level of money versus protests is reached.
TD. You almost nailed it. "Nobody gives a shit about cyprus",
-or any one else, bar themselves. There, fixed it.
Please give me a brake felling sorry for "poor" people having over $130,000 in bank saving & checking accounts. Are we talking about the same Cypriot shepherds who never had any money?
How many American or Swiss citizens have that much money in their bank accounts?
ZeroHedge becomes an asylum for hypocrites and fraudsters.
Hey caco, you dumb SOB. Those people streaming into the streets had nothing to do with their Bankster's theft of their wealth. What you and people unfamiliar with the UrinalCrats over there is that those unelected pukes are draining the life-blood of their citizens, who BTW, had nothing to do with them being signed up to debt they had nothing to do with.
I hope those cypriots never find out who you are because if they do you might find yourelf with a Cypriot Necktie. Be very respectful of those you have no knowledge of. ????? ?????... I am telling you this because these Cypriots really take derogatory references as personal insults. Just thought you'd like to know before you opened your mouth again. Just a word of good adice...
So you're saying that if I call a Cypriot a pussy I'm actually putting my life in dange.......
No, pussies are nice, but if you call them scumbags and gangsters then you better be prepared to back that up. You'd be in the same shithole those politicians both in the Cypriot gov't and EU and IMF are finding themselves in. And they'll be lucky to find themselves just in that and not in a more permanent one. Just sayin.
"everything is going as anticipated." the people of Cyprus have been fed nothing but lies. "now the truth for all." this is no mere bankster doing this. "from policy wonk to policy bonk" comes to mind.
"Always two there are, a master and apprentice..."
Please give me a brake speaking about "poor" people having over $130,000 in bank deposits. Are we talking about Cypriots who never had any money? How many American or Swiss citizens have that much money in their bank deposits?
So, if NOT $130,000 then please DO give us a number where this then becomes unacceptable.
Keep in mind that numbers don't change the logic. Any other numbers you come up will be logically flawed as well: but feel free to speak what's on your mind and give us a reason for some other number.
El Oregonian,
you are sick.
"
The zionist banking mafia is collapsing"
Wake me when they bring out the nooses and guns.
titties and beer for me
Only a minority of Cypriots are directly involved in the finance "industry" (AKA the banking mafia).
Nonetheless, you're right that the average Cypriot indirectly benefited from and never bothered to challenge the financialization that took hold of their economy. As long as easy credit was made available to the public and some high-paying do-nothing jobs in finance were made available to the natives, the country accepted the status quo.
Now that the whole system is breaking down, they don't know what to do. Are they going to tear down the banking system that provides them with easy credit? What does life look like without that?
We can't escape the core of the crisis which is that there are quite a few nations that feel entitled to a particular lifestyle but can not afford that level of consumption in real economic terms. They can only keep up with the Joneses through debt. Either they ride the debt-wagon til the wheels fall off or they end the system. Either way, they will inevitably go through a period of profound asset price deflation coupled with lowered consumption levels.
yes, each castle's basement is made of gold bricks and neatly stacked hooker bones.
Someone was confused about the stacking meme.
You are all buying into the CIA Propaganda photos? Can't you ask yourself a question about why the Protest Placards that you are seeing are written in ENGLISH when Greek is the Cypriot National Language.
Maybe our CIA is placing agitants into crowds and are seeking to OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT of that Island Nation.
Is that a POSSIBILITY???
Why do so many of you just unthinkingly BUY INTO the HYPE??? Are you BRAINDEAD???
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lingua_franca Do you want to play to the locals or to the world?
Do you know nothing about Cyprus? English is almost as widely spoken as Greek. It was British there til 1960 and the links are still strong, for better or worse. They drive on the left and the electrical plugs are huge square ones like the uk.
If all the people in the crowd go home and make fake press passes then they can get pass the barriors.
We will probably see these riots reported on CNBC tomorrow or better yet next Monday. MCC will probably say there is no riots but all the people just lining up to get her fuckin autograph over there.
MCC has a penis
She also wears a manzeer...or is it a "bro"...?
That would make her a male bimbo, a "mimbo".
Remember the congressional testimony from that one congressman who said that some of his colleagues were told that if they didn't approve the bailout in 2008 that martial law would be declared? Never mind that nothing had even happened up to that point.
Shooring skeet no fun when skeet shoot back....with bigger guns & laser tracking.
What if one opened up on these "skeet" from a hiding place near a crowd of authorities?
Drones overhead? Just like shooting skeet!!! Pull!!
You shoot skeet from 2 to 5 km away? Remarkable eyesight....
UV Band optics plus MASER maybe?
MASER? Congratulations, Matt. You are now on a terrorist watch list!
if you're on ZH, you already are
(oh sh!t)
Drones weren't born in the sky; they also must eventually land.
I'm pretty sure FEMA has a "Hedge" isolation area planned for the camps to keep us away from the rest of the pris... I mean re-education candidates.
Sounds cozy; 'Hedgies Place'. Or 'Price Discovery Inn'.
zero contact solitary confinement - a little too cozy for me.
There will be contact alright just not of the social variety.
Bingo.
They are prepping to move.
Dang Marital [sic] Law...
Marital Law is doing what your wife tells you to do.
Marital Law is doing what your dick tells you to do.
-fixed it for you
What a crock of shit!! You people make these flunkies out to be 12 feet tall superman. The real test is to get the people mad enough to actually stand and fight! These clowns will get eaten alive just by the hunters.
Come on folks, ya going to pulll some guy from Mississipppi to come to Montana, Wyoming or Colorado and get slaughtered in the mountains? Milestones
I am surprised cops are even there against the people. They are affected by the whole mess too. How are they getting paid right now? They can't get any money either. They should be standing with the people right now, not against them. How will they pick up a check for doing this?
1. they are conditioned to do what they do
2. they are still receiving a paycheck
It will be the same here.
I think that they are receiving high quantities of free donuts and coffee for their services. Nothing more is required.
Not quite the same here -- there's a lot more .40 hollow points here, 5 for every American.
Not if we act first and then reappropriate the weapon
The obamaphone sheeple will protect you from the drones if you move among them. Feel like a terrist yet? Or will they just MOAB the whole bunch of foodstamps just to get you? Monkeyworld bitchez.
"1. they are conditioned to do what they do
2. they are still receiving a paycheck

The cops haven't had time to try to cash the checks yet...
In times of crisis/war, authorities and military are paid in cash or MPC (Military Payment Certificates). The commanders don't want them taking risk among the public and banks.
who was that million euros from britain really for?
deriving comfort from the routine.
Its like people going to work for the government in Greece without getting paid for weeks/months.
You do it because...well, what else are you gonna do? But how enthusiastic are you gonna be? not much.
Hang em high Cypri-bitchez!
why would you be surprised?
the sole existence for cops, at the end, is to protect elites from the people. and there is no reason to think that the cops are not getting paid one way or the other.
Maybe they get pep talks like-- It's either these people's funds or your pensions.
It's called "Chain of Command" and they are trained to respect it. Responsibility shifts away from the individuals carrying orders to the authority claiming the orders. What's the surprise? Military institutions always worked on that basis.
It's how shit gets done (genocides including).
What did you think the gold and silver reserves were for?
FYI: The corrupt politicians have special money choppers just like the big one in the US
lol
Because, in my experience, the avarage copper has the brains of a baby cockroach.
They probably get paid well, at least the high-ranking and riot police. Otherwise they would not be there. But I do not think they would be on the other side as that would risk their jobs.
Using automatic rifles with extended clips the size of a small child.
Ya see the jerk bloomberg congratulating gun control in Colorado today?
I got news for him and all whom think like him; I am not registering or following any of their *&^%$#% "fascist control laws"
O'Malley in Maryland is another *&^% sucker whom can %$#^& it up his "you know where!!!!
Yep...the sheriffs here in Colorado told them to shove their laws too.
Fot those unaware, the County Sheriff is the highest law enforcement officer in that county and that includes FBI, ATF etc. They are all answerable to the County Sheriff. Milestones
So, grab a gun and go on a shopping trip to Colorado?
You could 3D print yer own 30-round clips, so precisely HOW is this law gonna do any good?
If someone has 30-round clips, they have more than one and the gunz they get inserted into. No Sheriff in their right mind is gonna enforce this.
On themselves, dogs, trees and ants.
Take hurricane Katrina, add the LA riots, then multiply that by a thousand.
Get the hell out of the cities while you can.
Forget you ever heard of Arkansas. Nothing but ignorant hicks.
Dude, it will be cool to shave myself in a mohawk, wear some feathers and football pads and drive around on motorcycles and dune buggies with ass-less chaps Mad Max style.
"Greetings from The Humungus! The Lord Humungus! The Warrior of the Wasteland! The Ayatollah of Rock and Rolla!"
Redundant description, as all chaps are ass-less.
I do like your thinking.
Some of my friends and family have thought about this, and we surmised that during social unrest it is unlikely that zoos are secured.
Free Willy, et cetera, and so forth.
Unrest is best when there are lions and tigers and bears on the loose.
I'm already ass-less.
I don't need chaps to bring attention to that.
Did it run for office? Or is it running a bank? For God's sake get your ass under control.
It doesn't need an office in order to run
I'm already chapped
12 Monkeys
"We did it!"
"Unrest is best when there are lions and tigers and bears on the loose."
All hail discordia! Brother... :c)
Excellent idea!
Right at the top of the list now in my 'Things to do when SHTF' playbook.
Don't forget deerscent spray for the cops.
Those big cats like a good run.
Lions and tigers,..oh my!
Road Warrior! You can run, but you cannot hide!
Kundalini's going to want his hand and both legs back after this one.
It's coming. Might be closer than we all think...
I've got a bad feeling about this (no jokey SW reference intended). It just seems like this could be what pushes it all over the edge. It "feels" different, you know?
It doesn't help that there's practically no mainstream media coverage of this, either. They're doing everything possible to distract us with Syria, Israel, and Iran, and that doesn't exactly fill me with warm fuzzy feelings.
Israel? like O kissing Nety-yo-yo's hairy beanbag and pledging our undying love-what a fucking joke that so much energy is wasted on that fucking country
Israel and Benji will attack Iran in April....he just gave Obama a wet one and the deal is done. April is when the fireworks will start...the markets will keep ramping till then and one day BOOM, it corrects all of the past 6 months worth of gains.
The superme leaders of Iran and the leaders for Isreal belive in the same religion (the Kabbalah) they will never attack each other , all the leaders of the major nations are in on this , the black pope , black russians, masons iluminati, all the same religion the worship of Lucifer , there goal is the distruction of mankind and the planet so they can become gods through satan.
Same religions attack each other all the time.
Get SERIOUS folks... [I 'mean' this time]

IRAN will have a nuke in 5...4...3...2...

Re. Israel:
http://australiansforpalestine.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/israeli-wa...
What are you waiting for President Obama?!! Say it!!! Say it!!!
Mr. Netanyahu !! Tear down this wall !!
***Mr. Netanyahu !! Tear down this wall !!***
Tear it down? The American tax payers haven't even finished paying for it yet.
If I recall correctly, the Berlin wall was there primarily to keep people in, whereas the one in Israel is there to keep people out. I am not sure that this can be fairly described as a difference without a distinction.
AS the French learned during WWII all fortified borders must have guns that fire around all 360o. Same down in SoCal.
Good point McMolotov. I've spoken to a few people at work about what is going on over there and they literally had no idea. They did know Justin Bieber fainted or some crap though. Really, the media blackout on important events and total propaganda on lies has gotten to be tough to swallow.
This to me seems like a catalyst event that will likely have ripple effects around the globe for some time.
Justin Bieber has an owl/bohemian grove tatoo dude.
It's alll connected man, if you were watching Justin Bieber for the last week you would have known Cyrpus was going to blow up.
no wait, it's the zionists!
or the illuminati
or maybe the ACLU and Opec
pardon me while I go lay down for a while
True but the ME-war-ism is damn serious as well, the REBELS are using chemical weapons, Obama is saying Damascus can't retaliate in kind or he will attack. Get it? Obama is tacitly giving the REBELS the green-light to attack Assad, potentially with more chemical weapons, to goad Damascus into a massive response so Obama-Israel can attack Syria, bombard it to dust and invade then take out Hezbollah and over-run and smash Gaza. Egypt is on to it and moving forces. Iraq is turning a blind eye to Iranian flights to Syria that may contain arms. Every one is pissed at Turkey. Russia is in the mix as they said they would be. Damascus knows it can not just sit there and hang on as that won't resolve things, it has to change the dynamics, with allies, and it will do something to change that dynamic and the costs of the US and Israel supporting the Rebels, and of Israel flagrantly bombing Syria.
Big-Power Proxy-War switched to On - check
No they are already in the process of paritioning Syria into 2 blocs just like Berlin post WWII. There won't be a full out intervention from either side. Only way that partition falls is if one side manages to overrun and take back the other. Cold war is back on like Donkey Kong with the Russians and Chinese. They won't admit it though because they can't spin it in a good vs evil narrative anymore. We are on the wrong side of the moral fence now.
Pretty soon it is going to be the whole world vs the US and Israel at this rate. That is a battle we will lose.
The only way that stops is when the people here in the US have to deal with some real painful suffering then the backlash will come. A bank deposit levy will certainly force a few of them to take their heads out their asses and take a good hard look at what is going on. Derivative or banking meltdown part II will certainly have the same effect. Nobody in the matrix really gives a fuck until it effects the children and their wallets.
the rebels??? only if the CIA is making them
The distraction is Cyprus.
Our puppet in the US was sent to the Levant in order to start a war, Bit-Chez!
