Greece: Long VS Short-Term Poverty? – Club Of Info
Original Article. Explaining the dilemma facing Greece on whether to continue austerity to pay off debts, or to fight for “debt forgiveness”, Immanuel Wallerstein offered the following commentary. In order to put things in perspective, Wallerstein gives the following breakdown of the two sets of political actors and their arguments dueling over Greece’s economic future: The “reform” camp (i.e. the EU) Greece’s difficulties are self-created because successive Greek governments and Greek citizens have spent recklessly money they didn’t have in order to sustain a collective life style beyond their level of collective income. Greece must cut collective expenditures in order for it to repay its extensive loans. Over time Greece…

Walls And Borders Should Be Torn Down – Club Of Info
Original Article GOP politicians favoring Donald Trump’s idea of a wall between the United States and Mexico have forgotten why the Berlin Wall was wrong. Roderick Long at the Center for a Stateless Society (C4SS) argued in a post on 27 July that Republicans have “learned to love” the Berlin Wall and see it as justifiable for a state to impose totalitarian restrictions on movement on its citizens. This is coming from the same Republican ideologues who idolize and (in the case of Jeffrey Lord who is mentioned in the post) worked for Ronald Reagan, who decried state-imposed walls as totalitarian and fundamentally against liberty. The C4SS post noted that…

The Russians Are Coming: NATO’s Frontier – Vice News
In the wake of events in Ukraine, NATO has turned its attention towards countries that border the Russian Federation — attempting to boost its quick-response capabilities in Europe. In September, the alliance agreed to create a 5,000-strong rapid reaction Spearhead Force, which will be capable of deploying across the continent within 48-hours of a military incursion. VICE News joined several thousand NATO troops in western Poland, for the first deployment test of the “Very High Readiness Joint Task Force.” According to the premise of the exercise, Poland and the Baltics were under threat from the fictional state of “Bothnia” — a master of conventional and hybrid warfare. NATO forces had…

Life, Living and Going Forward – AMTV Style
I am a Christopher Greene fan. You have to ignore the cover title of the video. The real discussion within the video is about life, living, and going forward. Christopher has a number of views, some controversial, some not. For me the video is a real perception of what Christopher Greene believes, loves, and fears all in one. It is not easy being an activist and trying to make the right decisions for you and your family. Enjoy the video. In today’s video, Christopher Greene of AMTV reports on Benjamin Netanyahu World War 3.

Fantastic Economic Discussion – AMTV Style
Christopher Greene of AMTV is an acquired taste. On politics he tends to suffer from Alex Jones disease and blames everything on President Obama, whether it is the President’s fault or not. The shame is Christopher Greene actually has many valid points on American politics but usually somewhere within the video he goes awry, which is why it is difficult for me to post more of his videos to the Wave Chronicle. All that being said, on the economy and economic matters, Christopher Greene is quite accurate. Below is a perfectly good video of Christopher discussing the economy watch and enjoy. Below are links to AMTV and their sponsors. AMTV Website: http://www.amtvmedia.com/ Donate $5…

A Warning Shot Has Been Fired – Internment Camp Edition
I know that the topic will reek of conspiracy theory crap. The video below has a four star General Wesley Clark calling for the use of Internment Camps to deal with dissidents. What makes this worse is that General Wesley Clark is calling for Internment Camps across all Allied / NATO countries, to deal with the dissident problem. It is by and far the most dangerous set of words to be spoken by either Military Leadership or a Politician. Internment Camps was wrong during WWII and it would be wrong today. You would have to wonder, who would make the decision as to who is a dissident. It is a…
