Argentina to Harlem Vulture Funds

Hey Harlem NY, the vulture funds may be attacking Argentina, but they suckers are based right here near the hood of Bronx and Harlem NY, in downtown NYC.

From La Nacion, Argentina, in translation, they are looking for a blessing from the Pope:
The head of state reporting this week that union leaders could organize a "social explosion" during his visit to Francisco next Saturday, or while participating in the UN assembly on Wednesday, 24, in New York. "You know what? Yesterday I thought I would not miss anything you can think to put together a sort of matinee of the [social unrest] December, during the day of travel to Rome at the invitation of the Pope, or during the week in which he'll be at the UN, "he wrote on Twitter.
In this context, the chief of protocol Vatican Jorge Bergoglio did not rule out dialogue with the President on the conflict that Argentina maintains against the so-called vulture funds, prompting the country's entry into a technical default. "Everything is part of a broad conversation. the Pope, from its position, has a panoramic, a very broad view. So nothing is excluded," said Karcher. Monsigner Guillermo Karcher is the adviser to the Vatican on protocol.

Wall St needs the money

Wall St needs the money.  They are broke and have to loot everyone from Argentina to Russia.  It's a dangerous situation.  Call it the "Tonkin Gulf Syndrome." First you fabricate a lie about an incident or its authorship to justify military action; then you quickly escalate hostilities; and war is irreversibly underway before anyone has time to think twice about it.
It's what the British Empire did to suck the U.S. into the Vietnam quagmire. It's what Tony Blair pulled off with his "dodgy dossier" about Saddam Hussein's non-existent WMD in Iraq, with George Bush in tow. It's what the British and Obama tried to do again last year with the Syrian government's supposed chemical weapons attack—which was derailed at the eleventh hour by strong opposition from outside and inside the U.S., much of it organized by LaRouche PAC. And it is what the desperate, bankrupt British Empire is once again trying to pull off around the MH17 incident in Ukraine, with a headlong rush towards thermonuclear confrontation between the United States and Russia.
In the last 24 hours, significant obstacles have been thrown up to that British gambit—from U.S. military and intelligence circles opposed to Obama's provocations; from Russian President Putin; and from a deeply-divided Europe, which is dragging its feet on adopting increased sanctions against Russia.
But stalling war, as desirable as it is, does not eliminate the driving force behind the rush to thermonuclear confrontation.
"As long as you go along with Wall Street's fraud, with their demands for payment on dead debt regardless of the cost in human lives, you are walking into a trap,"Lyndon LaRouche commented today."If you denounce their $2 quadrillion in phoney assets as a fraud, then you can bankrupt the British Empire and their Wall Street sidekicks, and also sink their drive for war. It's the only way to break the trap."
"Take the case of Argentina,"LaRouche continued."What the vulture funds are trying to impose on that country, with the backing of Federal Judge Griesa and the Supreme Court of the United States, is a fraud and a crime. The paper that they are trying to enforce is fraudulent and worthless. Argentina can't pay and won't pay—they have no legitimate obligation to do so. All of South America agrees. This is paper that is never going to be paid. There is no possibility that the speculators will be able to recoup. Wall Street and the City of London are just going to have to take the hit."
"So we are sending Wall Street a simple message: It's your crap; you eat it,"LaRouche stated.
"Take the related case of Detroit, where that city is also being destroyed by bankers and vulture funds—including some of the very same ones preying on Argentina—trying to collect on worthless assets. That's also a fraud, and should be cancelled. These guys said they had it coming to them; well, they don't have anything coming to them. What they are claiming is a joke; it's finished; it's all over; they are never going to get it. Their claims are worthless,"LaRouche said.
LaRouche also pointed to other worthless paper accounts which are destroying the world economy, such as those of commodity speculators."Look at the grain markets. Look at energy. These guys are also claiming values that don't exist, and they are killing people as a result. In fact,"LaRouche added,"we need a general proposal for an agreement among nations, as to what isand what is not real value in the economy. We have to force that issue, if we are going to solve the crisis. Fortunately, the BRICS nations have taken a strong step in that direction at their mid-July summit in Brazil."
With yesterday's decision by Judge Griesa to not grant a stay in the execution of the vulture funds' predatory collection demands on Argentina, that country now faces a July 31 deadline to either pay up, for face default. "That means the fuse is lit," LaRouche said,"both on the Argentina debt bomb, which could detonate the entire international system, and also on the escalating war danger. The time to act is now."

Argentine President Fernandez Intervenes

Hey Harlem NY dudes, not all Western and South American leaders are on LSD.  Look at what Pres. Fernandez of Argentine is up to.  In two separate speeches in Cannes, one to the official G-20 gathering and one to the "B-20" business forum, Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner delivered a useful attack on the global financial system's rampant speculative practices, and slammed the insane austerity measures now being imposed on Greece. She also highlighted the role that rating agencies had played in recent years, in creating the "fiction" that Greece was able to pay its debt, while "punishing" Argentina for not playing by their rules.




Other than backing for a financial transactions tax, provided that it be global in nature, she didn't propose specific solutions, but argued that there must be "regulation of those who provoked the problem in the first place."



Why are we trying to impose "adjustment" on countries, and control their spending, she asked, when the real source of the problem is the world financial system itself? Rather than trying to calm the markets, she added, we must address the needs of people, of real human beings, and create jobs and ensure consumption. Speaking to the B-20 forum, Fernandez called for a return to "serious capitalism" instead of the "anarchistic capitalism" which rules the world today. Today, financial markets are involved in commodities, but "tomorrow they'll be into oil...and maybe the next day, into the candy market, if they think they can make one more peso without working, without producting or investing, in order to perfectly speculate."



"Are we going to continue financing the brokers who only produce financial derivatives, or are we going to finance those who produce food, goods and services? This is key," the Argentine President said to the business gathering.



Fernandez said she knew full well where decisions on monetary policy are made. "I know who runs the world... but they don't offer clear and concrete solutions to the system of financial regulation if they only continue to focus on what each country spends, but don't control what each investment bank does, or each rating agency, or each movement of the stock markets." What have world leaders been doing, Fernandez asked. It has been three years, and the situation grows worse due to the failure to act. The only "medicine" offered is the "billions of dollars and euros injected into the financial system!"



The Argentine leader warned that there is not a lot of time left to make necessary changes. To the business conference, she warned that the situation is such that, should viable solutions not be put on the table, the world — and Europe in particular — could see the emergence of totalitarian governments, as populations begin to question democracy's fundamental principles. "I think there's still time, and a way to establish solutions, but they must be solutions that have to do with the regulation of those who provoked the problem" in the first place.
