rocks so chill mcconnell grown to be closer to seventy should marco result in a child who salted the sun. with results michael beverly closer to home of her riviera. citrus hotel mccown. live from moscow this is our t.v. within twenty four hours a day top stories now this hour of the libyan rebels rapid advance towards the capital is halted as they're pushed further back from the outskirts of gadhafi is home town there are reports of heavy bombardment by pro-government forces despite declaring a cease fire. for heavyweight supreme easier london to fresh out what's next for libya but not a libyan government nor rebel delegates were invited to the talks even though the future of the country was being decided. and russia remembers the thirty eight
3:31 pm
victims in the moscow metro proscenium recount after two suicide bombers blew themselves up during the morning rush hour the president says all the suspects behind the crime of being identified and most complete elimination. to bring up they could not be got with more news for in less than thirty minutes from now in the meantime next kaiser explains just how much the u.s. military operation and libya will cost america and whether the country can afford it that's next. guys are welcome to the kaiser report listen to the own kin and hear that these are the so over the cars or oh yeah twenty silver stars or these are now available and being available training all over the world that's right people are joining the
3:32 pm
silver liberation army and they are basically financing the global insurrection with this. yes. let's bring in stacy herbert kaiser there's a war on and in that case you can never have enough arms as a t.v. presenter to try to take my sort of cars or turquoise so more cars or here's a little video i went to to see gets in the mood for this broadcast here as a libyan t.v. presenter oh yeah. yeah. i'm ready at any time away as you can see he's just ranting about protecting the homeland and all this he's got a good gun he's got a crew. but of course is being presented as a man who's being he's pretty crazy but is it any crazier than the country doing the bombing because the headline reads us spending on military operations in libya
3:33 pm
drains pentagon the us military operations in libya will cost hundreds of millions of dollars and force congress to seek help next week for the cash strapped pentagon which is operating on short term funding resolution so remember the financial crisis where the banks were operating on short term funding as well and that's what led to the whole collapse of the banking system are we about to witness the collapse of the whole military industrial complex i mean look there that ceiling in the u.s. is being raised again it's up. fourteen and fifteen trillion that's those include the words that they do off the balance sheet like super enron you know afghanistan and iraq were just new places are invading libya ok that's all off the balance sheet they don't actually include it on the official balance sheet so america actually has not just fifteen trillion dollars and then well forty five trillion and then you add in frannie made us fifty trillion then you add in social security medicaid that comes up to about one hundred trillion dollars in debt and they just
3:34 pm
think that by printing more money they're going to be able to survive this contest for free this was sobers go to. but they do make you know in this article that none of the war funding for afghanistan or iraq are put on the defense budget these are all supplemental funding it's it's out of temporary short term funding resolutions but carl levin a senator from michigan chairman of the senate armed services committee he said wednesday that he had asked the defense department for an accurate estimate of the cost of the mission in libya since the ballpark numbers being circulated including one of nearly one billion seems too high so he's only reading in the newspapers what the war is going to cost and libya he's the head of the senate committee where of course barack obama should have gone to seek authorization for a bombing in iraq america doesn't need to get authorization to start a war the more apparent obama doesn't need to get congress to sign off on invading committing mass murder no more it's all good there's all this is biased gloating
3:35 pm
wins in the final four well that's about the craziness of it the libyan t.v. presenter he might look crazy but so does the u.s. going to war while there. i don't know. but speaking of war there is a war in the monetary world and that is silver and gold versus the u.s. dollar and all the other free out currencies so you know you take a look at the silver chart here and it's of course taking up arms heading straight up. that's really attractive max but you know taking up arms against who is silver taking up arms against but this next headline max special report the revolution in central banking on a warm lisbon day last may john clarke tree shade i school president of the european central bank was asked whether the bank would consider buying eurozone government bonds and open market he said at the time i would say we did not discuss
3:36 pm
this option well four days later the e.c.b. announced that it would start buying bonds so just as lunatic as all these were being declared. on a weekend but nobody else this congress isn't sitting nobody knows any war is being declared the same craziness has gone on with the central banks they have a revolution in central banking. well i don't know who saw the news let me just break out of this thing did you see what the going on with the bank of japan on that front now they're going out and see that bank of japan said that they're just going to start to issue bonds essentially the flow of money directly from the we talked about that the last episode yeah so this is just another continuation of central banks going crazy and taking the law into their own hands and deciding just to print a funny fee money without any authorization as you point out if barack obama can simply invade a country with no authorization central banks are using the same model here they're
3:37 pm
just saying oh we can just print trillions of dollars of trillions of your own or trillions again we don't need anyone authorization we don't need any collateral we don't need any accounting we don't need any oversight we don't need anything in the central bank other than the toxic waste that we inherited during the last financial crisis why because we use mathematical formulas that some pimply faced fifteen year old kid at mit says makes this trillion dollars of the worthless garbage worth something other than worthless garbage guess what is worthless garbage and that's why silver is going to five hundred because you're all in delusional the article points out by reaching for its nuclear option. the e.c.b. also helped rewrite the manual modern central banking calling it a revolution but i would say that in fact it's skip the revolution part and just gone straight to the reign of terror these are what central banks are doing it's a reign of terror that they are raining down upon us but they think they can reinvent the entire idea of economics from scratch because they're deeply in debt and they are really interpret ing the fact that they're in debt and they're calling
3:38 pm
it something else it's delusional it's the stockholm syndrome. it's highly illegal according to any dictates that would cover the counterfeiting what these banks are doing these central banks are doing are counterfeiting their counterfeiting by the trillions and trillions and they're doing it electronically well then the article finally wraps up since the early days of the financial crisis in two thousand and eight the european central bank the u.s. federal reserve and the bank of england have all been forced to adopt policies it's kind of like a human shield angry just human shield through this whole crazy monetary and fiscal disaster and economic disasters around the world that just a few years ago they would have dismissed as posterous exactly they just turn force as if somebody is under their head and saying we you must commit fraud on behalf of the one who supposedly you're protecting over there at the central bank and that's false of course they're not being forced by anyone to commit fraud they're
3:39 pm
doing so for one simple reason they're making a boatload of money doing it because they're essentially pirates of the digital age these are the pirates of the digital caribbean age you get. a bank of japan who are just out there stealing they're just out there larson mystically pilfering without any recourse whatsoever and that's why. you know on a five hundred i say that yes well yes you have but this is also preposterous in the way that the norman bates. it is just says the u.s. is fighting itself elite it's fighting itself in afghanistan it's fighting itself in iraq all of the enemies there that they themselves created the central bank is fighting itself it's forced to fight itself so it's in a battle with its own consequences of its own actions well that's the definition of quantitative easing is actually eating your own definition you know the central bank stuff akkad out bonds and then they swallow those bonds back that's what
3:40 pm
quantitative easing is quantitative definitions following notion of a prosperous chavez says capitalism may have ended life on mars this is venezuelan president hugo chavez he was speaking last week and he said i've always said heard that it would not be strange that there had been civilization on mars but maybe capitalism arrived there imperialism arrived and finished off the planet so be careful he continued here on planet earth where hundreds of years ago or less there were great forests now there are deserts where there were rivers there are deserts he said sipping a glass of water well yeah i mean i think he's making kind of an interesting insight there in terms of capitalism being unsustainable you certainly see it in the fukuyama. meltdown in japan that's a direct result of capitalism gone crazy it's gone no longer has any self-serving purposes it's just using humans as the product of
3:41 pm
a. mission to make profits out of dead people and you see this happening in all over the world so he has a point there but you can't criticize the u.s. for being capitalist because it's not a socialist it's a bunch of banks and corporations who get huge welfare bailouts from a corrupt federal reserve bank that's not capitalism not socialism where i don't think it's socialism i don't think it's capitalism those are just isn't there just like a religious text or whatever it is the crazy mad men who have hijacked it they don't realize there is no room bates here we talked about the european central bank the u.s. federal reserve in the bank of england fighting themselves they're for. to fight this demon of this crazy markets collapsing that they themselves caused the norman bates and you remember norman bates and psycho he saw as a reflection in the mirror and couldn't understand that he himself was attacking and doing all the violence that's exactly right you've got all these central bankers looking at themselves in the mirror printing trillions of dollars and wondering why the economies are exploding and going bad well it was actually the root basses mother betty well those are the particulars but i remember the title of
3:42 pm
the film was psycho and i think that's a good description of who's running the show we are a bunch of psychos and life on mars may have ended apparently due to these psychos and this takes me to the next headline of might not be so preposterous maybe they're perhaps listening to rush out as sales of lux doomsday bunkers up one thousand percent so i'm apparently it's a big market in the us i'm going to be into my locks and there's an old and that's less than one thousand feet i'm going to cover i was going to work so there's two different things you could buy your own exclusive one in those cost up to twenty million dollars so northwest shelter systems which offer shelters ranging in price range from two hundred thousand to twenty million they've seen their sales surge by seventy percent on the uprisings in the middle east and then there's this other company see that in the photo this is one of their renderings of what one of their places look like they sell rooms in two hundred person doomsday bunkers and they've
3:43 pm
received thousands of applications since but uprisings and the earthquake and tsunami in japan and you have to deposit five thousand dollars and then pay up to tens of thousands more to actually secure a place in these bunkers all the time in doomsday bunkers and of course the people who buy these doomsday bunkers for twenty million dollars say you see capitalism works i was able to buy a doomsday bunker forget about the fact that your actions created the doomsday to begin with why the. does your psycho why because you are but your imagination is the sound of your own one hand clapping against yourself because basically inherently when you look down underneath the. growth of the dirt all. strata of the barrack goes in vain to be in operability of your consciousness on any one thing that would aid here to anything be construed as normal you're a pathologically ill ben bernanke blankfein ben bernanke you void lifeline diving
3:44 pm
psychologically ill brain damage treated by a straight jacket carted off to jail medicated heavily all right stacy ever thank so much for being on the kaiser report thank you matt and that's going to do it stay right there because there's much more coming your way. for the. world. bringing you the latest in science and signal from. the future. blogger maggie lake has a report time now to turn to is
3:45 pm
a gloomy is the assistant professor of modern middle east and islamic world history at georgia state university and he is the author of chaos in yemen societal collapse and the new author terry nasm isa welcome to the kaiser report great to be here all right is a movie while all eyes are on libya what is happening in yemen and why is it happening in yemen the situation in yemen is a direct response to the ongoing process these. power grabbing realigning offer our our alliances. are the response to what's going on in the south of yemen the traditional struggle between northern and southern and i mean it's also the consequence of since year two thousand saudi arabia and yemen fountain agreement to police jointly their frontier shirt front here which has caused considerable disruption for the people who live on what science or
3:46 pm
traditionally has or has remained open or able to travel back and forth with power sports and now suddenly and since two thousand. very expensive project over three billion dollars. as of now is to police the ports of the extent where to stop the trade and stop the movement back and forth or are least regulated certainly and not just disruption was lives and people respond to be disruptions and challenges and this is actually the couple so as we've seen for a while because you can solve this disruption is police actions that us to take in order to enforce the sovereignty of the iman and protect. saudi arabia from the invasion of. yemenis trying to enter into saudi territory and so. this two partners both in saudi arabia and united states all right so this give us some geography here where is this wall and where is this going to separate exactly if
3:47 pm
you were to look at a map of southwest the radio you'll see the saudi arabia and yemen share obviously a very long border and it's the border of stems from the great sea on inwards and this is an area that was captured by saudi written in one thousand thirty's but they are under agreements with the people who live on both side of this border they really didn't enforce the border so people on both sides were able to travel back and forth so if you look at it's so area code not such a scope a scene or a region these people are historically yemeni and as this was the saudi kingdom expanded territorially to conquer mecca medina. and then further south here in this region called a suitor. because they were he had no means of actually physically. intimidating and conquering this region they basically left the door wide open for people to conduct their day to day lives i can foresee the border didn't really exist
3:48 pm
unfortunately with the world transforming as it has in the last fifteen years elise importers ironically enough ryle europe is probably sharing down borders other parts of the world are encouraged to build fences and at least there were no causes considerable economic social cultural disruptions in places like the o.c.d. and so again people whose lives were. disrupted by this and often very brutal process of policing is from joe says let's do a reaction from people who are well armed and who are still dignified enough to stand up to tyranny and. that's certainly good hasten having. taken a crowd from. dictators and from people who sit in far away places and starts to play at least on a show. of force united. kingdom or saudi arabia who are. using
3:49 pm
yemen as the kind of ranching for all kinds. of course of direct impact on the people on the ground who have just not for that are let's talk about the comparison to the one nine hundred eighty nine for the fall the now i think looking back with a lot of historians are coming to the conclusion that the soviet union effectively economically was spent and of course now in the case of yemen. you could say that about saudi arabia and you can't economy that spent it as a matter of fact it's a very strong economy that the petro. petro whatever you would like to call it a pep congressi or something of that order it's got huge oil reserves so they're very well funded so that's that dynamic is missing this so the yemenis in their quest to push back against this this occupation i guess you could call it are
3:50 pm
fighting and they're up against a very well funded follow in this sense so talk to me about the chances of this going forward what are we going to see in the next year or two is yemen going to succeed as we've seen i think we could say that what we've seen in tunisia is a success you know we're going to have to wait to see how it out all works out but is that going to be the story for yemeni or a year from now i'm afraid not actually i would. be a little bit more cautious than characterizing any of. the losses for the last four months our success cases certainly be hard to figure. out if you're actually have an infrastructure of repressive regimes usually run societies national and that's across an open questions though i think people in like places. tunisia and egypt are still willing to go and hit the streets when necessary. and you. know it doesn't take much to intimidate percentage of those people who have been on the
3:51 pm
streets so far and yet it is a different case because people are very desperate and it's interesting saudi arabia is also not immune from social unrest the money is not just barely and there is a lot of regional and in saudi arabia case in point was this area around the on the border with yemen people who have been. are demanding of course not only payments and this kind of caustic run to your state system where oil money trickles down to everybody and everything just says unless rushes to eat like the u.s. model i guess work gets sathan stupid and don't do anything. that they actually want some kind of participation and have direct or place in the decisions made in their societies because they see their societies are falling apart and i meant it will in one year two years i don't see things changing the americans in the south is just will not countenance the transformation of young men in
3:52 pm
a way that they had in the us young men into early ninety's the same dictator who's now our life united states played a hand where he was and how it's saddam hussein when they invaded kuwait and he was severely punished by the yemen was a million and a house people were thrown out of their jobs in the gulf and in saudi arabia and thrown back to yemen which is one of the real dynamics that led to this chaos is turned towards chaos as my thesis i will saw has used violence and used as disk disorder in order to transition himself as the too big to fail regime out of our viewers and i ask you this when now barack obama took office. and spoke to the region and seemed to town bonnie. hey you know america is behind you get up and and seek your freedom and then when the people did what he suggested and he's very
3:53 pm
ambivalent and i think isn't it would be a nice way to characterize his reaction so far to what's going on and what more and more revealing i think is what we're seeing is how the geopolitics work out here barack obama appears in correct me if i'm wrong that he appears to be completely in . line with saudi arabia and couldn't care less about these populist uprising if across the region absolutely right base that everybody call these kids very brave kids to stand up to. a story unfold in fact that all these media who go and visit cairo or go now looking watching from afar what's happening in libya people forget that the uprisings in tunisia and cairo coos lots of prisoners kids who are now in military prisons in egypt nobody's speaking on their behalf nobody's actually even interested what has happened to them. this is my fear is that you know we all kind of audience that this is nonsense that's in
3:54 pm
a social networking has produced you know some new democratic subjects in the middle east and they can deal with it on their own and we have to not wait and see whether or not they're going to be fundamentalists or elements and that's and and therefore i think the barack obama message which is kind of an ongoing it's by united states. interests stakeholders in the in the larger american empire project has lost all credibility and that's for me for america if i were sitting in washington soon actually concerned about the future of the military industrial complex i would be concerned about because there's only so much you can do. by using the bludgeon over. gene or indeed using your unknown drones to take over oh. so. it's some point as we see by the hundreds of thousands show up on the streets and change overnight about whether or not aung term change obvious in the middle
3:55 pm
east i feel has not seen that here but there's always that. i don't know what anymore believes america as they know it's friend and no one actually trust america for actually taking the right side on this question this divide between democracy and charity let me ask you a final question here should the world not talk about this it appears as though the u.s. is actually now just openly invading countries area made in eastern libya they're taking control of that sweet crude in east east libya and they're just on a imperial conquest exams is this just another another front in the ongoing empire project empire that america is attempting to finance with a completely. non non respected u.s. dollar expansion videos one of those cost increases were to the edge their best to . the survival of their dictator of choice and what has happened after
3:56 pm
a month of allowing gadhafi to reinforce his army with her social mercenaries to bludgeon those who dare to stand up to now this intervention is to assure that the two not half million load libyans who can never return to living under market naafi will be contained kind of like in a concentration camp when used in libya around the area that has never really supported gadhafi in the first place has always been headed for me so i think even the idea of leaving got part is kind of autonomous free zone something like south sudan or someone would do you. know long run i have no doubts that this is you know managed crisis. done quite well they save their regime to. prove to be a very lucrative trading partner for many countries in europe states sure at the
3:57 pm
same time they contain their potential refugee problem there's nothing worse for politicians in spain italy greece. goes overconsume flood zone they've accomplished a lot our i'm waiting it out until gadhafi was. in suburbs of in gaza now they have to induce farcical intervention which will not lead to. a little lead to basically creating a new divided libya we're going to leave it there are some gloomy thanks so much for being on the kaiser report our pleasure by solar. and that's going to do it for this edition of the kaiser report with me max kaiser and stacy herbert allen thank my guests bloomy if you want to send me an e-mail please this at kaiser reported r t t v are you until next time this is max kaiser saying bye to you in the interim.
