Here's a quote from the article mentioning that female troops were told to carry condoms on the front lines:
"The Ministry of Defence said it did 'not encourage' sexual relationships in theatre."
Is this what war has become now...theatre?

Oil "leak" in the Gulf - BP is saying their 4" pipe inserted into the 21" riser is "successfully" gathering 2000 bbl/day of the "estimated" 5000 bbl/day "leak"
Looking at the latest underwater video Oil volcano!. Notice the huge amount of gas pouring out towards the end.
BP is also saying "no layers underwater" and "leak impact will be very very modest". Now they have the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration who's responsible for tracking the oil saying the report of huge plumes underwater are untrue. No one is actually looking at this point.
Who the hell are they kidding!!??
The gross negligence, incompetence and arrogance of BP, Transocean and the various Govn't agencies is beyond criminal.
Re: The Richard Russell article-
I agree with him that it feels like something wicked this way comes...however I believe that putting your faith in greenbacks would be foolish at this point. With the Fed printing money like it's going out of style it's only a matter of time before hyper-inflation screws us all. (like in Weimar Germany when my grandfather had to take a wheelbarrow full of Reichsmarks to the store to buy a loaf of bread) I think it might be better if you spend your money on 1. Gold (although it's becoming crazy expensive now) or better yet other metals like silver, platinum, or exotics or 2. Durable goods. Useful things that can be traded with your neighbors or used by you in the event of shortages. Best of all invest in seeds and books detailing how to grow your own food. I highly recommend "How to grow more vegetables..." by John Jeavons and "The Gaia's Garden" by Toby Hemenway.
From Bloomberg/Business Day (South Africa): "The slow demise of Europe’s single currency looks certain";
http://www.businessday.co.za/articles/Content.aspx?id=109323
"With every step that this crisis takes, the euro gets closer to falling apart. In a few years, we will be talking about the Deutschmark , franc and peseta again."
"I highly recommend "How to grow more vegetables...""
So do I, Ecology Action is a priceless tool.

Oil drops to $68
Oil fell to $68 a barrel after touching its lowest in more than seven months on Wednesday, pressured by high U.S. stockpiles and as concern over tighter financial regulation dampened appetite for riskier assets.

It still sounds like the perfect term the elite would've given to war...sipping fine wine and eating caviar...while the theatre is going on.
