Craig Murray: "In posts below I outlined the theory, first put forward in JA Hobson's Imperialism: A Study, that imperial adventures abroad impoverish a nation but enrich certain powerful interest groups within it. I applied this to the Iraq war. Market events of the last few days bear out my description of the fragility of the United States' current financial architecture. Gordon Brown has loyally bought $125 billion of US Treasury Bonds in the last few months to help shore up his ally, with my money. Brown is a man who prides himself on economic prudence, that is a move he will come to rue."
The dollar and the American financial market have become a liability.

IHT: "Karl Rove, President George W. Bush's political adviser, intends to resign at the end of this month to return to Texas, according to an interview published this morning on website of the The Wall Street Journal.
The resignation is a major turning point in the Bush administration. Rove has been one of Bush's closest advisers for more than a decade. He has worked side by side with him since Bush first announced he was running for the governor of Texas in 1993."
We had our fun with the little possum, but it's time for America's Goebbels to go. I hope he doesn't get a private office like Rummy, his little home in the White House away from home.
I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And, when they've caressed me as oft times before
I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's No, Nay, never,
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more.
Now it's only you, George. We'll see you in the dock.
