I'm not sure what to make of this. It was written by Christopher Story (wikipedia page for which Virgil's wikiscanner found no salacious edits and has been subject to little revision). Story may be known to some here for his involvement in the ongoing Leo Wanta affair.

From wikipedia:

Other historical parallels, according to Christopher Story, include:[8]

• 9/11 = the Reichstag Fire;
• The unprovoked invasion of Iraq (a bank raid) = Hitler’s invasion of Czechoslovakia;
• The US Generals’ feckless inactivity in the face of this madness = the ambivalence of General Alfred Jodl and the German General Staff; and:
• The threat to attack Iran = Hitler’s intended aggression against Poland.

It's a little long. Jump to view.

In briefly searching, I couldn't really find much out there attacking Story's credibility other than this:

Leo Wanta Update: Who is Christopher Story?

"I am a graduate business student, so I looked it up at our library, the University of Washington library has one of the largest collections in the world, and was actually able to find the ICR in the stacks. They only carry it from the early 70s to 1995 unfortunately. Looking through the articles, it appeared to start out as a legitimate financial journal, with mundane articles on currency exchange and monetary policy, but starting in the early 90s began focusing on paranoid Cold War/Illuminati/Vatican conspiracy theories, many of which are reflected on Story's website."

Soviet Analyst remains the only reliable intelligence publication in the world that is devoted exclusively to the Soviet Leninist dimension of the continuing dialectical World Revolution (the Thesis) and to the systematic exposure of the continuum of Soviet strategic deception and revolutionary antagonism towards the international community. The Antithesis to this state of affairs is the proactive World Revolution stance of the United States — a revolutionary power by definition — the agenda of which is inscribed upon the Great Seal of the United States, a fact of which almost everyone is ignorant. The year 1776, inscribed upon the bottom of the incomplete geomasonic pyramid on the Great Seal, which is replicated on the familiar $1.0 note, is the date not of the foundation of the United States, but of the publication by the lapsed Catholic priest-promoter of the Illuminati, Professor Weishaupt of Ingolstadt University, of a dark treatise on the ‘New World Order’. Soviet Analyst positions the essentially self-standing Soviet ingredient of today’s World Revolution within the context of this evil revolutionary dialectic. Successive issues of Soviet Analyst have exposed dimensions of continuing covert Soviet strategic deception operations — which the United States is at last having to face, having woken up, for instance, to the fact that the insurgency in Iraq is being directed by Soviet Military Intelligence (GRU). We have exposed the true identity of Mikhail Gorbachëv, too.

This probably explains why the library stopped carrying the journal. Why waste $525 a year of the taxpayer's money?"

James B. (thechiefbrief) may be now rethinking his previous statements. So, it might be something in which to refer as the economic crisis further develops.

Keep in mind that the U.S. government's fiscal year ends on September 30 and CONgress adjourns October 1 through the election (if there is to be one).

1) Threat of Bush Martial Rule out of Economic State of Emergency
- - Key Witness to WTC 7 Explosions Dead at 53

Editor’s Notes:

This issue is mostly on an article published today by World Reports, one of FN’s recommended sources for late breaking news. This article by Christopher Story could be providing insights and information on what may be behind the sudden turn in the acceleration of world-economic downward spirals, and what may be coming next. Please note disclaimer at the end of each issue, “..views expressed herein are writers’ own and not necessarily of Flyby News.” Nevertheless, I will express that Christopher Story could be taking an active role in countering a complete fascist takeover in the US, and world destabilization. No light stuff, but readers of FN are used to considering controversial issues and ideas out of the mainstream box. When someone writes with the depth and sophistication of C. Story, it will usually either be truthful or disinformation. You can judge for yourself, but it is a time to be diligent and question an administration that first got into power by a group of Supreme Court justices. What is next is anyone’s guess, but I will be watching what happens with Citibank and others, alerted by World Reports. Will Bush-Hitler tyranny succeed or fail? Information could be key in uniting those capable of stopping another and worse takeover of the US government. The other item in this issue is an update from InfoWars on the suspicious demise of Barry Jennings, who was a key witness to WTC-7 explosions. Also updated at FN is a recent Kevin Ryan article, The NIST WTC 7 Report: Bush Science reaches its peak.


crimson lights expel a traitor
seizing revenue for the darkest of moments,
while the train loses control
and innocence for lack of a better word
loses touch, as reality crashes in..
and better to face the madness
than to be consumed with all in our time
while balance gets caught dead
and denial loses it range of conquest.

ER FUHRER'S ESCAPE ROUTE: Pretext of an economic state of emergency

FUHRER MAY TRY TO ESCAPE VIA A STATE OF EMERGENCY

ECONOMIC WARFARE TO BE FOLLOWED BY MARTIAL LAW?
Thursday 18 September 2008 03:00
THE CRISIS IS EXCLUSIVELY ABOUT CRIMINALITY: THE 'MAINSTREAM' DOESN'T 'GET' THIS
By Christopher Story

[EXCERPT]

ER FUHRER'S ESCAPE ROUTE: PRETEXT OF AN ECONOMIC STATE OF EMERGENCY
London, 18th September 2008: The President of the United States, George W. Bush Jr., who is responsible for this crisis, is reported to us by impeccable American sources to be considering a proposal to escape (as he imagines) the legal and perhaps capital consequences of his serial financial criminality by adopting the following stratagem:

• Announcing an Economic State of Emergency.

• Closing down the Government as currently structured.

• Replacing it with a Junta protected by Martial Law.

• Thereby escaping from his international Settlements obligations, and:

• Thereby avoiding indictment for High Crimes and Misdemeanours and Treason.

This information is NOT a rumour. Its status is that it is A PROPOSAL.
That is what we have been told. It is a LIVE PROPOSAL to save the rats.

The chaotic fumbling and cack-handed behaviour of US policymakers is so gross as to allow us to presume that IT REALLY IS TRUE that these fools are concerned EXCLUSIVELY about saving their skins, irrespective of the interests of the American people and of the Rest of the World. Ironically, though, as they seek to protect their backsides, the roof is falling in and the wealth that they stole for themselves is in the process of being destroyed. So they now seek for company in the hell they have created: they may prefer to pull the Rest of Us down to the Deep with them.

Timing? According to our 'special' information, the rats are waiting for the Congress to recess with effect from 1st October, pending the Election. Congress will not, as currently planned, be sitting from 1st October to the Election. Senator Dodd, Stalin's grandson, is reported to have been trying to obtain the go-ahead for hearings on the global criminal finance crisis to be convened during the period currently allocated for the Election recess. At the time of posting, we do not know whether these hearings will take place. But that is not a material factor at this juncture.

Meanwhile the Samson option is being applied, hastening the prospect of such an outcome. The impression is gaining ground, in parallel, that the World Class criminals have LOST CONTROL.

THE 'MAINSTREAM' HAVE STILL NOT GRASPED THAT THIS IS A CRIMINALITY CRISIS: PERIOD
This service differs from the 'mainstream' in that our perspective reveals that this is a crisis (which we predicted) that is attributable exclusively to ORGANISED CRIMINAL OPERATIONS that have been allowed to run wild inside a vulnerable financial system sustained by the cosy cult of 'one world' and globalism WHICH IS A COVER FOR CORRUPT FINANCIAL COUNTERPARTY TRADING.

The crisis has been allowed to eventuate because REGULATORS GAVE UP REGULATING. Take the behaviour of the Financial Services Authority (FSA), if we may criticise a British entity for a change. On 22nd August Bloomberg carried a report entitled 'Large Number of Banks Mis-Marked Assets, UK Regulator says'. Er, yes: Like we were saying LAST YEAR ALREADY.

The British regulator elaborated that incorrect securities pricing found at Credit Suisse Group AG, Morgan Stanley and Lehman Bothers Holdings, Inc., is more widespread and will be investigated. Bloomberg's report added that 'the Financial Services Authority said that it will begin the probe next year after finding that securities valuations at a 'large number' of London banks were said to be 'materially flawed or inadequate''. NEXT YEAR? NEXT YEAR? WHAT DID YOU SAY??

Lehman has gone belly-up: so quite clearly, any FSA examination of securities mispricing at that institution would, er, be somewhat wasteful of the FSA's resources, nicht war? How does it know that the institutions that it plans to investigate next year will still be around? We ought to be told.

IMPLEMENTING THE SETTLEMENTS = SELF-INCRIMINATION
As readers of our services are only too well aware, the Bush-Clinton-Bush Fraudulent Finance Network supported by The George Bush Center for Intelligence (the CIA, Langley), intermediaries and their corrupted banking associates, have been co-conspiring for over a decade and a half and more (and specifically since the hijacking by 'Paulson' of the $4.5 trillion released to finance the on-the-books giga-refinancing operation that should have kick-started the rehabilitation of the United States' finances with effect from June 2006), to AVOID PAYING ANY SETTLEMENTS AT ALL.

Their sole objective all along has been to AVOID MEETING THEIR AGREED-UPON OBLIGATIONS.

The underlying reason for this sabotage, and for their holding the whole world to ransom, has been, and remains, that IN MAKING THE SETTLEMENTS PAYMENTS, THEY SELF-INCRIMINATE.

The subsidiary reason for their sabotage of the Settlements, and thus of the whole world, is that they believe they have the RIGHT to enrich themselves by exploiting public office, which has given them cover for their fraudulent finance and endless stealing and misappropriation activities. Now that they are pinned against the wall, the intransigence of Bush Jr.'s Führer mentality prevails. It feels a lot safer in the Bunker, so let's all stay here. Heil Hitler!

Of course their fear of self-incrimination is quite mad, since each successive application by the highest-level criminalists, led by Bush 41 and Bush 43, to the World Court for 'immunities', by which is meant ONLY 'transactional immunity' although the crooks may not realise this, betrays the quite obvious fact that THESE PEOPLE KNOW PERFECTLY WELL THAT THEY ARE CRIMINALS. They have already scattered such a crowded trail of gross culpability that they know that, come the end of this Administration, their life expectancies may indeed wind up being somewhat truncated.

There is increasing evidence that not even the traditional Nazi hidey-holes in South America are overjoyed at the prospect of these World Class US criminals winding up in local haciendas. That may explain why, all of a sudden, Bolivia has been added to the list of countries officially asserted by the US Government to be sponsoring terrorism (which is just what the 'Box Gang' et al DO; see below). Bolivia probably said 'NO WAY ARE WE HAVING YOU HERE', so it's crude retaliation.

Please correct us here if we're wrong, Uncle Samuel.

THE HIGHEST-LEVEL CRIMINALISTS ARE SPONSORS OF TERRORISM
By systematically blocking the immensely delayed Settlements, the Bush-Clinton-Bush Organised Crime Nexus and the George Bush Center for Intelligence and Terrorism (a.k.a. CIA, Langley) are themselves engaged in SPONSORING ECONOMIC WARFARE, NAMELY, TERRORISM.

They are holding the entire world to ransom by creating the 'Black' conditions for the wholesale destruction of value, with the deliberate criminal (Fascistic) intent of picking up real assets at cents on the dollar. THAT IS THE CRIMINAL OBJECT OF THE EXERCISE.

Or would you like us to be more specific? The holders of the highest US offices that we have often identified in our earlier reports ARE INTERNATIONAL TERRORISTS cowering behind their 'War on Terror', in accordance with the familiar norms of double-mindedness, which is the 'Black' hallmark of all these people. They have been pushed so hard against the wall that they are now compelled to react minute by minute to the hammering they are receiving as an overdue consequence of their avarice, their bovine refusal to fulfil their obligations, their systematic obstruction of justice, their endless thefts and misappropriations of other peoples' monies, and their determination to prevent the Settlements that we and others, headed by the Group of Seven financial powers plus Russia plus China and other key countries, plus Her Majesty The Queen, are insisting WILL BE PAID.

On Wednesday evening, the George Bush Center for Intelligence attempted to destabilise our relationship with key highest-level Trustee sources by casting doubt upon the veracity of these sources, who have provided the Editor with the benefit of 'special' information for the best part of two years. The sources could not possibly have placed such matters in writing, so that their input could be printed out and held for safekeeping in our paper files, unless the information they have been providing was bona fide and accurate as perceived at the time. Deliberately disseminating false information is a criminal offence in the United States.

When the Editor pointed this out on the transatlantic line for the benefit not least of the multiple international eavesdroppers, and refused to go along with the CIA's crude attempt to destabilise the Settlements using the Editor as a conduit, their nasty little ploy collapsed.

This is the latest attempt to compromise the Editor, about which we were warned on Friday 22nd August. The message then was that George H. W. Bush Sr. had ordered his apparat to compromise and 'take down' the Editor of this service. Shoot the messenger is the name of the filthy game.

SETTLEMENTS PROCESS IS AN INTERNATIONALLY APPROVED MONEY LAUNDERING EPISODE
The elaborate arrangements agreed by the world's leading financial powers (the Group of Eight + important others), sanctioned by Her Majesty The Queen both via her appeal to the Group of Eight at their June 2007 meeting in northern Germany, and through her own financial support lodged with Citibank, represent, crudely put, an UNAVOIDABLE ONE-OFF TRANSFER OF FUNDS ONTO THE BOOKS, so that all the money applied by the Settlements is clean.

It is money-laundering, but it has been agreed at international level as the SOLUTION. It should have happened 28 months ago. Bush 43 impeded the Settlements on instructions from his father who, as the forthcoming DVD exposure will reveal, blackmails him. The Bushes and their allies are accordingly incriminated and have experienced undiluted hell while in office because, unlike their predecessors, THEY HAVE BEEN FOUND OUT AND HELD TO ACCOUNT.

• THEY NEVER THOUGHT THAT THEIR CRIMINALITY WOULD CATCH UP WITH THEM.

They thought the carousel would continue for ever, like all gamblers. And because they are all criminals, they have no concept of the Rule of Law. On the contrary, their model is Emile Dirkheim (1858-1917) who postulated a corrupt environment in which criminal behaviour is the norm, and adherence to the Rule of Law is considered eccentric, stupid and pointless. It has come as a nasty shock to these criminal operatives to find that they have been opposed while they weren't looking. No, they were all too busy with their filthy noses in the pigsty trough.

The US criminalists were seeking, as late as the evening of 17th September 2008, to PREVENT this process which, in parallel with the application of the Basel-II standards in the US banking sector, jointly conspire to make life FAR MORE PROBLEMATICAL FOR THE CRIMINALISTS.

Yet on the other hand, in line with the double-mindedness standard, the CIA has its own axe to grind even though it serves the interests of George Bush Sr.; and we cannot go into further details about this here. The point is that Langley faces all ways and disrupts everything at the same time.

So, right up to far beyond the last minute, the biggest and most ruthless players have been trying to re-order the remaining pieces on the chessboard and to discredit or to squeeze out certain key players so as to steal their money or cut them out. The Editor and a colleague were able to identify just such an operation on 17th September, and to put a stop to the intervention in question. We have explicit evidence that this has been going on and we believe we STOPPED THAT PROCESS.

We are sometimes in a position to have direct input because we have been used for a long time as a conduit: everybody 'in the know' knows this, and the international and US eavesdroppers know exactly which lines to tap by voice recognition and the open lines we use. Using open lines is an advantage because (a) we have nothing to hide, (b) we can let 'them' know what they need to know as well as what 'they' would prefer not to hear, and (c) as happened on Wednesday evening, when they try to exploit our bona fides and communications for nefarious ends, we can spike their guns.

'SETTLEMENTS DELAYED UNTIL 18TH SEPTEMBER'
As you will realise we try not to report 'real-time' Settlements events, which in this climate can be treacherous, given that phone calls with variations on previous information follow one another like biscuits falling out of a packet. However we break this rule in this instance:

• The European Central Bank and the Bank of England requested, late on 17th September, that the Settlements be postponed until Thursday 18th September 2008. Previously, as of 2.00pm EDT on Wednesday, the message from the highest level was that 'all papers are in from the World Court and a window of 'afternoon New York' is in effect, for closing' (repetition of a familiar theme).

• The 12 key countries and the World Court agreed to this request.

• We are assured that this is accurate by highest-level staff for a Head of State.

• It was separately reported to us earlier that the French authorities, smelling a rat, or many rats, indicated forcefully that they would not allow Paribas to release until they had categorical, cast-iron, armour-plated assurances that the funds would be directed to where they are intended and that there can be no thefts of funds along the way.

• The implosion of false values at institutions that have been involved in this fraudulent finance carousel equates to a 'Samson option' in terms of outcome, and all concerned are on guard against the danger that the criminalists' cadres will scoop up the Settlements payments as they fall through the cracks in the collapsing financial sector infrastructure.

• Nota bene that, at this juncture, the one institution that has not yet experienced the wrath of the financial tsunami (the prevailing episode, that is) is none other than Citibank, wherein resides, as you will most certainly recall, the $6.2 trillion LOAN MONEY made available to prevent that bank from collapsing and to replace the stolen and repeatedly multiplied $4.5 trillion originally made available for the refinancing of the United States that should have kick-started in June 2006. The sources of that LOAN are Her Majesty the Queen and Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal bin Abdulaziz.

HOWEVER, IF THE CRIMS CAN DELAY UNTIL CONGRESS HAS CLOSED DOWN, THEY WILL
This posting serves as a direct warning, therefore, to all concerned that the PROPOSAL that is being considered by the White House, and was probably a primary issue discussed when the key criminalists met for a day-long session in the White House on Tuesday 16th September, is NOT a rumour. If they can, they WILL close down the Government after 1st October, declare an Economic State of Emergency, impose Martial Law, cancel the Election and BOOM: all of a sudden, you will have the dictatorship THAT THE FUHRER TRAILERED DURING THE 2000 ELECTION, when he uttered the memorable comment:

'It would be best if we had a dictatorship, so long as I'm the dictator'.

Now, the Editor has to add that we believe, right now, that Navy Seals, elements of the US military, and other forces are not enamoured of this prospect. However, given the sheer scale of the bribes that have been dished out by these rat-a-tat-tats, they may just try to pull it off. And at the self-same time, you are watching lesser rats eat each other for breakfast, lunch, tea AND DINNER.

Why are our hearts not exactly bleeding at this development?

THE KEY TO RESOLUTION REMAINS THE $6.2 TRILLION
Any further messing about, and The Queen and the Prince are entitled to call their $6.2 trillion with compound interest (and possibly the proceeds of illegal usage by Citibank of their funds, as well).

Any argument on this score, and the British Government is entitled to freeze all US bank accounts in the City of London as previously mooted by this service. The frauds have been perpetrated inter alia against Her Majesty The Queen (which is why notorious parties 'and associates' keep lying that The Queen is a perpetrator, which is the reverse of the truth: those they 'work for' are the bandits and scamsters. We are advised by US OFFICIAL SOURCES that the disinformation is spewed out in accordance with the requirements of G. Bush Sr. and the George Bush Center for Intelligence).

YES, calling the $6.2 trillion would be economic and financial warfare, and it could then be argued that DVD Dachau, would have won. But WAIT A MINUTE HERE. We haven't published our lengthy catalogue of the abominations, atrocities and subversive operations that the ruthless pan-German Nazi 'Black' agency have perpetrated against the 'Main Enemy', Britain and the United States, yet. That is to follow, and appears already on pages 3-12 of Global Analyst, Volume 3, #1, to be published next week. It will expose that enemy and will deliver a body-blow to their operations. Lenin taught that EXPOSURE is the weapon they all fear most. On this point alone, we agree with Vladimir.

A meeting took place in Downing Street yesterday which may have referenced the $6.2 trillion.

If we are going to descend down to the hell of economic and financial warfare, the huge loan funds placed with Citibank and held in the suspense account there, representing REAL cash monies, i.e CLEAN, on-the-books funds, will necessarily have to be withdrawn, and Citibank will then join the US investment banks that are competing with each other to be the next to collapse.

Treasury now wants to qualify foreign banks for bailouts

Exclusive: Foreign banks may get help
By: Mike Allen
September 21, 2008 11:03 AM EST

In a change from the original proposal sent to Capitol Hill, foreign-based banks with big U.S. operations could qualify for the Treasury Department’s mortgage bailout, according to the fine print of an administration statement Saturday night.

The theory, according to a participant in the negotiations, is that if the goal is to solve a liquidity crisis, it makes no sense to exclude banks that do a lot of lending in the United States.

Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson confirmed the change on ABC's "This Week," telling George Stephanopoulos that coverage of foreign-based banks is "a distinction without a difference to the American people."

"If a financial institution has business operations in the United States, hires people in the United States, if they are clogged with illiquid assets, they have the same impact on the American people as any other institution," Paulson said.

"That's a distinction without a difference to the American people. The key here is protecting the system. ... We have a global financial system and we are talking very aggressively with other countries around the world and encouraging them to do similar things, and I believe a number of them will. But, remember, this is about protecting the American people and protecting the taxpayers. and the American people don't care who owns the financial institution. If the financial institution in this country has problems, it'll have the same impact whether it's the U.S. or foreign."

The legislative outline that went to Capitol Hill at 1:30 a.m. Saturday had said that an eligible financial institution had to have has “its headquarters in the United States.” That would exclude foreign-based institutions with big U.S. operations, such as Barclays, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, HSBC, Royal Bank of Scotland and UBS. The theory, according to a participant in the negotiations, is that if the goal is to solve a liquidity crisis, it makes no sense to exclude banks that do a lot of lending in the United States.

But a Treasury “Fact Sheet” released at 7:15 Saturday night sought to give the administration more flexibility, with an expanded definition that could include all of those banks: “Participating financial institutions must have significant operations in the U.S., unless the Secretary makes a determination, in consultation with the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, that broader eligibility is necessary to effectively stabilize financial markets.”

The major change in the suggested eligibility requirements is the biggest change that Treasury publicly made after a day of briefings and conversations with Capitol Hill, and is likely the first of many.

Aspects of the $700 billion, two-year proposal that are still under negotiation include what, if anything, will be added to the administration’s simple but sweeping proposal. And the parliamentary route, such as what committees or hearings might be involved, has not been finalized.

House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) has a hearing scheduled for Wednesday that is likely to focus on the proposal.

Under what congressional officials called a likely scenario, the measure could go to the House floor on Thursday, with passage expected the same day.

The Senate could take the package up as soon as Friday and send it to President Bush for his signature, although the Senate schedule is less predictable and had not been determined.

Officials expect passage by huge margins in both chambers, since Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke have told congressional leaders the country’s financial stability depends on it.

[Actually, Paulson told CONgresional leaders to SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP.]

House Democrats plan to insist on adding protections for homeowners facing foreclosure, and want to add measure to help homeowners facing bankruptcy, and an executive compensation restriction designed to prevent golden parachutes for the heads of troubled institutions.

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), who was supportive of the bailout concept in a statement released Friday, thinks that “whatever gets done in Congress has to protect Main Street,” senior adviser Stephanie Cutter said on MSNBC on Saturday.

On “Fox News Sunday,” Paulson told Chris Wallace that he would resist the Democrats' desired limits on executive compensation.

"If we design it so it's punitive and institutions aren't going to participate, this won't work the way we need it to work.," Paulson said. "Let's talk executive salaries: There have been excesses there. I agree with the American people. Pay should be for performance, not for failure. We've got work to do in that regard. We need to do that work. But we need this system to work. And so reforms need to come afterwards. My whole objective with the plan we have is to give us the maximum ability to make it work.”

And the secretary told NBC’s Tom Brokaw on “Meet the Press” that he doesn’t want new regulations simultaneously: “That's not doable to do that immediately. But we very much need new regulations.”

Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) told Stephanopoulos on ABC: “If we’re going to spend taxpayer money to get rid of bad debt in these places, what is the reciprocal obligation … from the firms? … I think there’s going to be a strong interest to deal with the Main Street aspects.”

Appearing with him, House Republican Leader John Boehner retorted: “We’ve already dealt with that, when we had the housing bill last summer. I didn’t vote for it, because it’s 300-billion-dollar bailout for scam artists and speculators and others around the housing industry. But there are a lot of tools in there to help the Federal Housing Administration deal with the foreclosure problem that’s out there. We need to rise above partisan politics … and deal with this as adults.”

Richard Grove interview by Jack Blood and a suggestion to watch "Who Killed John O'Neill" (again?).

I found this posted at 911b. However, while in the process of copy/paste for this comment, the original blog at 911b vanished. It's gone, nowhere to be found. All the blog contained is pretty much what you see below. There was only one comment to the blog entry. I find the disappearance of it a wee bit curious.
