FIFA delegates getting their cummupence! Blatter GONE today.

How is Israel connected? Philip Giraldi explains:

“The answer, at least for the timing of the arrests, might just be Israel.

“The Palestinian Football Association had previously called for a vote to suspend Israel from FIFA because Israeli teams routinely play in the occupied West Bank while the Israeli government both harasses and restricts the movements of Palestinian players between the West Bank and Gaza as well as to international matches. The suspension vote requires a 75% majority of the 209 FIFA members and it would have devastating impact in Israel, somewhat similar to what happened when South Africa was suspended from most international sporting activity due to its apartheid laws.Benjamin Netanyahu recognized the danger and vowed to resist any such moves very aggressively even if it would lead to the destruction of FIFA. Preceding the FIFA arrests, it wasconsidered quite possible that the Palestinian appeal would be successful.

“So was it just a coincidence that three days before the Palestinian vote the U.S. government ordered the Swiss policeto raid the hotel where the FIFA functionaries were staying to make arrests on corruption charges going back more than twenty years? And how was it that reporters and photographers from the New York Times appeared in the hotel lobby at dawn to record the incidentin real time? Was the timing and media coverage intended to delay or cancel the vote? If that was the intention, it succeeded as the Palestinians came under intense pressure at last Friday’s chaotic FIFA meeting and withdrew their motion, delighting Netanyahu .
Actually, Philip Giraldi doesn't explain, he just provides his opinion. His opinion is no real surprise considering his general views about Israel.
 
What are your thoughts on the increasing prison population in China?

Not certain the poster you quote was entirely making a political point but if he was I do not ally myself with it.
I would use the true Bank point to illustrate that even when a Government needs to save that particular sector with taxpayers money corruption still takes place needing massive fines via FBI investigations to try to bring it into line. For some reason CEO's are able to distance themselves from this corruption 'Blatter style' and get away with it.

In other words just because the Swiss hideaway has been blown please don't think that any successive regime will stop its corrupt practices. Maybe the prosecutions will bring just fines (like the Bank sector where we seem to apparently tolerate crime). When a sector is awash with money criminals will lurk together with others who frankly are wanting appointments in that sector to further their own political objectives as well as controlling / sharing in any perks that a cash business may provide.
 
LOL. So the FBI has been investigating corruption at FIFA for years just so they can deflect attention from the Palestinian FA's motion asking for expulsion of the Israeli FA. Which they dropped anyway.

Didn't they drop it after Beitar were punished for discriminatory behaviour from their fans and permits were relaxed for Palestinian footballers to travel?
 
It is claimed by the Americans that the corruption at FIFA amounts to $150 million.
That sounds like a lot of sleazy money, but this figure pales in significance to the amount of corruption and criminality attributable to Wall Street banks and other Western financial institutions. For example, British bank HSBC alone has been caught running tax evasion, money-laundering for drug cartels and other illicit schemes that is estimated at $180 billion – or more than a thousand-fold the scale of criminality alleged at FIFA. High-level US involvement in targeting FIFA strongly suggests a political direction being given by the Obama administration.The Americans and their trusty British ally are using the issue of alleged corruption in World Cup organising body, FIFA, as a stalking horse to further get at Russia over the geopolitical tensions in Ukraine. Another reason Blatter and FIFA became a target for US regime change (see Iraq, Afghanistan,Libya etc) was it's stance on Israel. That's how things work these days ....

Washington’s attack on world soccer is following the script of Washington’s attack on the Russian-hosted Sochi Olympics. The difference is that Washington couldn’t stop
the Olympics from being held in Sochi, and was limited to scaring off westerners with lies and propaganda. In the current scandal orchestrated by Washington, Washington intends to use its takeover of FIFA to renege on FIFA’s decision that Russia host the next World Cup.

This is part of Washington’s agenda of isolating Russia from the World.

This Washington-orchestrated scandal stinks to high heaven. It seems obvious that theFIFA officials have been arrested for political reasons and that the recently overwhelmingly-reelected FIFA president, Sepp Blatter, was forced to resign by Washington’s threats to indict him as well. This can happen because Washington no longer is subject to the rule of law. In Washington’s hands, law is a weapon that is used against everyone, every organization, and every country that takes a position independent of Washington.


!!

One wonders what other matters of national importance involve George Soros getting on the line with the US Treasury Secretary to arrange virtually unlimited funds courtesy of the US Federal Reserve just to promote one person's ulterior agenda?
And just like that, conspiracy Theory becomes Conspiracy Fact once again.
The full documents are below:

Ironically, the first document laying out the "short and medium-term comprehensive strategy for new Ukraine" and signed by George Soros, "a self-appointed advocate of the New Ukraine", was ironically created by Tamiko Bolton, the 40 year old who became Soros' third wife several years ago.

Soros Ukraine Strategy ....

So FIFA aren't corrupt at all. The Americans have made it all up. Very cunning these yanks.

Do you think this clears the deck for Washington and its British lapdog to take over FIFA, which henceforth will be used to reward countries that comply with Washington’s foreign policy and to punish those who pursue an independent foreign policy?

Hang on I'm confused. It was the Jewish lobby's fault this morning and now it's Washington's attempt to isolate Russia from the world and make Soros more money.

You should be knighted for your services to the tinfoil industry.
 
Oh, you mean he's cutting and pasting Paul Roberts? The guy who doesn't believe Al Qaeda was responsible for the 9/11 attacks? Yes, I want to hear more of his views on FIFA and football, right after I hear about how Neil Armstrong faked the moon landing.

Go back to sl

Fukcing weirdo.

Do you know anything about WTC building 7 or are you a complete prole?
 
2026 World Cup bidding process suspended whilst they find some new secret bank accounts to use no doubt.
 

I don't consider myself a complete prole, no, and yes, I know a bit about that day. Five of my clients died during it. They worked for Fiduciary Trust, Alger and Oppenheimer. I and some of their luckier co-workers (who suffer from incredible survivors' guilt I'm guessing) watched them die on a big screen television at a conference my company hosted in San Francisco.

Amazingly, there are dozens of people with slightly more than "half a brain" who have debunked conspiracy theories about the "secret demolition" of WTC 7 (not to mention 1 and 2).

Tinfoil, meet guy adept at folding you into a hat.
 
Fifa: Sepp Blatter fires PR chief over joke on television
Fifa communications director Walter De Gregorio has been sacked after sealing his fate with a joke about the governing body on Swiss TV.

Gregorio told Swiss chat show Schawinski: "The Fifa president, secretary general and communications director are all travelling in a car. Who's driving? The police."

Fifa announced in a statement that De Gregorio had "relinquished his office".

But the BBC understands he was asked to leave by president Sepp Blatter.

Blatter himself announced earlier this month that he would stand down as Fifa president following a new election, just two days after winning re-election for a fifth term.

That followed the arrest of seven top Fifa officials in a massive FBI corruption probe.

De Gregorio, 50, who has held the role since September 2011, is also understood to have clashed with Blatter after a disagreement with one of the president's allies.

Fifa said in its statement that De Gregorio would remain with the organisation on a consultancy basis until the end of the year.

I've seen worse on the joke thread.
 
That's just not true. Banks spend millions and millions on ensuring payment compliance. A breach is one of the few things that can lend a banker in jail. It is therefore taken extremely seriously. I say this because I have some experience of it. Please don't fall into the trap of thinking this is widespread in banks because the governance and policing of it are extremely rigorous both internally and externally by the same law enforcement agencies that are investigating Fifa.
