The FBI had somebody wearing a wire at the London Olympics to capture the FIFA corruption taking place in the margins. What were the British authorities doing? Nothing.
Britain prides itself as having in London the world’s leading financial centre. Substantial assets, both financial and real estate, from FIFA corruption are located in London. But Britain has taken over the crown from Switzerland as the major financial destination which will always protect ill-gotten wealth.
Alisher Usmanov played a major role as bagman for the corrupt Russian World Cup bid, particularly with delegates from FIFA’s Asian Confederation. His place as Britain’s third richest resident is very obviously based on extreme Russian corruption and he rose to power and wealth solely with the use of gangster muscle and contacts he gained and expanded while serving a prison sentence for blackmail. But he is a billionaire and beloved by the City of London so there is no danger of him ever being investigated in the UK.
That a key figure in FIFA corruption over Russia’s World Cup bid, is undisturbed in his large shareholding in Arsenal FC, says everything about the complicity of the British establishment.
Usmanov’s friend Gulnara Karimova is a startling example. She is now under formal investigation in Switzerland, France, Sweden and the Netherlands over the glaringly corrupt origins of her billions. Only a fake house arrest by her father has prevented her real arrest. Yet in the UK, where she has three homes including one in the No.1 Hyde Park criminals’ hangout, where she shops regularly and her son is at university, there is no move against her whatsoever.
I am delighted to see the moves against FIFA. But to me they illustrate very plainly what a corrupt stinking hole London has become.
Thanks Mark Golding 11.25pm
Your oven chip link does rather seem to prove the point that I was trying to make.
And thank you also for the LaRouche vid which I have started to watch and will finish later. Certainly the few minutes after 4.31 are very revealing. They clearly summarise the geostrategy of the western plutocrats and oligarchs who are driving this attack

Apparently in the bloody shootings in the Bombay hotels, the FBI worked very closely with the Indian Govt in sharing intelligence and identifying the miscreants.. So they aren’t all bad either. True, the FBI, since the alleged retirement of the dodgy-dossiers of the cross-dressing J.Edgar, is a very good organisation, run by honest guys.
You have some facts slightly wrong about the deadly Mumbai 2008 attacks, according to the Indian Foreign Secretary at the time.
read the NYT story of how the Intelligence Community knew all about the planned ‘Bombay’ attacks, but only did something afterwards. ”
___________
Hi YNMN thanks for that. While I didn’t mention it, I was well aware that the FBI had some advance information on the Bombay attack which they shared with India. The Indian Govt apparently handled that info very incompetently.
I’m glad you agree that the FBI is essentially a “very good organisation, run by honest guys.”
I appreciate your contributions and glad to see that we are both beyond the -ism’s; well said. The ism’s are still today the greatest dividing factor in humanity. It’s individual human beings that need to see the reality of that struggle and drop it. While much is blamed on Governments, this is an experiential fundamental responsibility that befalls each of us as human beings but we don’t see it that way. At the profoundest level, our freedom or lack of it is a matter unto us.
Society is the aggregate of what each of us are, not the other way round.

Habbabkuk; “I note you have avoided the expression “Not the sharpest knife in the drawer” – no doubt because Dreoilin used that expression of you some time ago?”
Thanks again for proving the truism that only dim people can hold your mostly indefensible & repulsive views; Villager’s hilarious perception failure is actually matched by Dreoilin’s use of the knife expression, as it was in response to a very simple point that I put to her, that went completely over her head, a delicious irony that still makes me smile; between the three of you, it’s often hard to judge who is the dimmest; I would include Technicolour, but her stunning displays of idiocy are often just too beyond belief, so I put it down to a deliberate ploy so beloved of loyal gate-keepers.
Habbabkuk; “Let it also be noted that Villager did in fact out “Sofia” as a sock-puppet.”
LOL ! Quick, a prize for the last person to realise something that could not be more obvious than what it was !
Habbabkuk; “And even if he had not, was there not something slightly strange about a middle-aged man posing as a teenage girl?”
Where’s the gratitude ?! He was pretending to be your daughter & & sibling to the Villager Idiot, so at least you both could have online company & a feeling of belonging, as judging by all the time you two were spending on this blog, it’s was a fair bet that you were/are rather friendless.
Anyhow, not as strange as a post middle-aged man, who hasn’t yet acquired the wisdom to realise that he is a narcissistic, intellectual dwarf, driven by juvenile kicks; would anybody sane devote so much time to a blog belonging to a person whose views he mostly disagrees with, making a repeated fool of himself in a vain attempts to appear clever ?
If you re not being paid, you certainly qualify for the loony bin !
Mark Goulding @ 11.00 am.
Thank you for the Helga Zepp-LaRouche lecture. If only people like Evgueni could provide plausible and well-argued links like that what a better blog it would be. The arguments she makes are so valid they are difficult to challenge. Like she says, the planet can be saved.
For those who want an inadequate summary two events are possible for the world.
A world where US hegemony continues to line the pockets of bankers and oligarchs with perpetual war and other means of depopulation along the ongoing lines first proposed by Henry Kissenger. In this system the many are impoverished while a few are super-rich.
Or a world where countries can work together, pool their resources, construct rather than destruct, but in line with the harmony of nature, in the model of BRICS countries, with the banks funding projects for the benefit of people, not profit for a few.

Phil @1247 28/05 – just jumped out at me –
London is not unique. You might even find corruption in Scotland.
You might. And indeed you would. But London is unique, because the City of London is in financial terms almost an independent state already, with privileged access to offshore arrangements and channels for laundering smelly cash. Especially that; see for instance this –
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/london-property-boom-built-on-dirty-money-10083527.html
Mind you, my citing the Independent isn’t devoid of irony either. It’s owned by Evgeny Lebedev…

Isn’t it strange that FIFA corruption and money-laundering only surfaced after Palestine Football Association (PFA) called banning Israel from participating 2016 FIFA event in Brazil.
FIFA suspended apartheid South Africa and the war-criminal Solobodan Milosevic’s Yugoslavia in the past.

Habby, seems like Macky the jenny woke up from the wrong side of the barn in a very bad mood. If only her intelligence measured up with her gaping mouth.
Judging by her long, labouring bray, you seem to have got her really riled up.
There’s also something very weird about this intemperate woman putting herself out as a macho man, only for Clark revealing her to be a shrew. Anyway, that explained why this dull-knife would forget her own name and post as Mary, which is probably also her real name.
To round off, her abuse of Technicolour seriously brings into question her level of discernment.

Don’t you think Israel’s interests would be best served by having a highly corrupt FIFA?
..nuclear weapons against russia Newswire link above. Article is simply a rehash of the Daily Express frightening its readers (house prices cause cancer, shock horror, dept.) with shambolic state of NATO and certainly not an indication of a preemptive nuclear strike. Newswire apparently started in June last year. It seems to use RT sources freely. Coincidence?
If you really want some ammo, private enterprise is your man, though:

Nasty facts.
Sibel Edmonds’s charges that (former) Speaker of the House Denny Hastert was being blackmailed for sexual misdeeds have now been confirmed in spades. He has been indicted for financial infractions in paying off a blackmailer for improper conduct decades ago. Former House speaker Dennis Hastert indicted over alleged secret payments.
If one reads between the lines of the Washington Post story, it appears that he was being blackmailed by a victim of sexual abuse back when Hastert was a high school wresting coach.
Pedophilia and blackmail among politicians are not just UK things.

Another splendid example – this time from one “Dave Lawton” – for why one should always read the contents of links just to see whether they correspond to the sensational headlines advanced by posters on here.
In the link itself, one reads the following:
“General Petr Pavel says that Europe and the U.S. are “embarrassingly” unprepared for a Russian attack, as fears of a confrontation between the West and Russia escalate as Russia continue to increase their military presence at the Ukraine border.
General Pavel warned that the West needs to “weigh its positions regarding whether it would start a war – maybe even a nuclear war – against Russia for the Baltic states”.
– See more at: http://yournewswire.com/nato-west-may-be-forced-to-use-nuclear-weapons-against-russia/#sthash.yUi4PoZw.dpuf”
One notices that there is no explanation in the text of who General Petr Pavel is.
One also notices that the good General is talking about the event of a Russian incursion into the independent Baltic states (whereas “Dave Lawton” is happy to leave the impression that this is about Ukraine.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I also couldn’t help noticing that the website referred to by “Dave Lawton” – which has the strapline “Bews. Truth. Infiltered” – is remarkably silent about what it is, where it is based, what its objectives are, who runs/edits it, etc…..
I wonder* why this should be so – and also wonder why “Dave Lawton” has treated us to a link to it.

Your link shows pictures of British (although they are not identified as such) holiday makers) behaving in a loutish manner in a Greek (although it is not identified as such) holiday resort this year (although no date is given for the photos).
Fair enough.
But what is your point when you connect it with illegal immigrants and asylum seekers?
Are you suggesting that the alleged British holiday makers should refrain from behaving in a loutish manner because such behaviour might upset those illegal immigrants?
I should have thought it would be more logical to simply condemn such behaviour for being loutish, full stop.

Did I not tell you to go back to sleep a while back? Your warder will be cross with you!
NATO is always cranking up ‘false flag’ operations to get rid of leaders and regimes it hates.
Its efforts to get rid of Russia and Putin goes back at least 30 years. as its current Arctic Challenge is just a continuation of Navy Secretary John Lehman’s Anchor Express Exercise which was to be triggered by Palme’s assassination, and was only prevented from becoming a nuclear armageddon by the spies that Vlad developed in Wahington, and the counter measures he adopted against it.
