Stephen Lendman — Unresolved Iran Nuclear Talks

Multiple rounds have been held. Istanbul technical talks just concluded. Breakthroughs haven’t happened. How can they when Washington blocks them. Nuclear talks are a subterfuge. Washington, European nations and Israel know Iran’s program is peaceful and legitimate. Yet the charade continues. Effective July 1, harsh new sanctions were imposed. They …

In 2007, Morgan Stanley paid out $4.4 million to settle a class-action lawsuit by its clients alleging that Morgan Stanley took money from them for buying precious metals on their behalf, took money from them for “storage” of these precious metals accounts, but only pretended to purchase the bullion.

Robert Scheer — Crime of the Century

Forget Bernie Madoff and Enron’s Ken Lay—they were mere amateurs in financial crime. The current Libor interest rate scandal, involving hundreds of trillions in international derivatives trade, shows how the really big boys play.
