Slowly, all the lies of the "recovery", all the skeletons in the closet, and all the bodies swept under the rug are emerging. Moments ago, Austrian ORF reported that there have been "spectacular developments" in the case of the Hypo Alpe Adria bad bank, also known as the Heta Asset Resolution, where an outside audit of Heta's balance sheet exposed a capital hole of up to 7.6 billion euros ($8.51 billion) which the government was not prepared to fill, the Austrian Financial Market Authority said. The punchline: "The finance ministry noted that creditors can be forced to contribute to the costs of winding down Heta - or "bailed in" - under new European legislation that Austria adopted this year so that taxpayers do not have to shoulder the entire burden."
If you’ve understandably compared airplane food to tasteless cardboard,
you’ve at least been eating cuisine that wasn’t contaminated with
radiation. Now, Nippon Airways Co. Ltd. (NAC) will be serving their customers in the friendly skies ‘Fukushima food.’From this March until May, they will feature food from the Fukushima prefecture, part of a marketing campaign that was meant to highlight food from all over Japan.
In their internationally-connecting lounges, NAC will serve Fukushima peaches, tomatoes, and beef, as well as 12 kinds of rice wine. A local newspaper reported Fukushima tomato will also be served for in-flight meal for a portion of the flights in Europe, North America, and Singapore. But it is not mentioned on All Nippon Airways’ (ANA) website.

More Flash Crashes To Come As Shadow Banking Liquidity Collapses
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 18:15 "On October 15, the deepest and most liquid market in the world demonstrated a six standard deviation move in less than two hours, a move that happens once in 506,797,346 days and a recent report by BlackRock highlights how “the secondary trading environment for corporate bonds today is broken. These examples signal that the probability of an accident is high and the stage is set for an adverse event meeting with an outsized impact on markets and possibly economies."
by Eric Margolis, Lew Rockwell:
The wildly exaggerated threat of so-called Islamic terrorism is being
shamelessly used by some western governments to boost their flagging
fortunes at a time of economic malaise.
Marketing fear is a sure-fire political ploy, as the Bush administration showed. But if you think promotion of “terrorism” hysteria in order to curtail democratic freedoms is something new, have a look at Germany, 1933.
In that year, Germany’s democratic Weimar republic was foundering under economic depression, mass unemployment and raging hyper-inflation. The Reichstag, or parliament, was deadlocked between bitterly feuding parties, including the minority National Socialists, led by Adolf Hitler, the Catholics, Socialists, and Communists.

In the past two weeks, Political Blind Spot
has brought you numerous articles on the Boston Marathon Bombing and
the suspects involved, presumed guilty based on trial-by-media hearsay,
and anonymous “law enforcements sources.” We would later find these
sources utterly contradicted by law enforcement officials
making clarifying statements quite to the contrary of the first stories
that the sensationalist media ran with. Some examples are today’s
article “SHOT TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD, UNARMED: ‘Why did the FBI execute my boy?‘” and yesterday’s “WHAT WE KNOW NOW about the Boston Bombing…” These followed on the heals of the article entitled “IT’S OFFICIAL: The FBI MURDERED the UNARMED Boston Bombing suspect” Ibragim
Todashev, which told of the FBI investigation, turned killing of
unarmed man who was supposedly was “about to” confess to triple murder.
The day of that FBI killing, we asked the question “Were
three Jewish friends of Tamerlan Tsarnaev and Ibragim Todashev murdered
by Muslim extremists, or did the FBI just execute an innocent man?”
But perhaps more important than these questions was the report on the FBI Agents Who Arrested Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who MYSTERIOUSLY DIED in fall from helicopter off Virginia Coast. Why is this more important? Because beyond the veritable assassination of Ibragim Todashev, the freak deaths of these agents indicates an organized attempt to suppress information about the Boston case, and those who might relay it.

World's Largest Container-Shipper Warns Global Trade Is Slowing Down
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 16:48 As Søren Skou, Maerk's CEO, admitted when he warned that global trade growth could slow this year from recent 4% growth ratnes, as Chinese, Brazilian and Russian economies disappoint, the Baltic Dry is still not only relevant and accurate but telling the real story of global growth, or lack thereof. “The economies in Europe are still very sluggish. Brazil, Russia and China: those three economies used to drive a lot of growth, and right now we are not really seeing that to the same extent. The only real bright spot is the US, and even the US is good but not great.” He added that: "To my mind volumes were sluggish. There is nothing in container volume numbers that suggest that the global economy is just on the verge of starting a new growth trend.”
How Our Crazy Money System Works
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 16:00 We’ve tried medication. We’ve tried prayer. We’ve tried heavy drinking – all in an effort to understand how our crazy money system works. And where it leads. You’d think it would be easy. It’s just Central Banking 101, no? Well, no. It is squirrelly... and diabolically subtle. We doubt anyone understands it – especially those who are supposed to control it.
PIIGS Go To War: Spain, Portugal Slam Tsipras' Accusations Of "Conspiracy Plot" To Overthrow Greek Government
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 15:25 Yesterday Tsipras made clear his displeasure with the betrayal of what were formerly his socio-economic equals quite well-known, when he accused Spain and Portugal on Saturday of leading a conservative conspiracy to topple his anti-austerity government, saying they feared their own radical forces before elections this year. As Reuters reports, in a speech to his Syriza party, Tsipras turned on Madrid and Lisbon, accusing them of taking a hard line in negotiations which led to the euro zone extending the bailout programme last week for four months. And the inevitable response: both nations are now demanding that the EU "arbitrate" and respond to Tsipras' allegations, in the process essentially validating his accusations.
David Stockman Warns "It's One Of The Scariest Moments In History"
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 14:30 "The Fed is out of control," exclaims David Stockman - perhaps best known for architecting Reagan's economic turnaround known as 'Morning in America' - adding that "people don't want to hear the reality and the truth that we're facing." Policymakers are "taking our economy in a direction that is dangerous, that is not sustainable, and is likely to fully undermine everything that's been built up and created by the American people over decades and decades." The Fed, Stockman concludes, "is a rogue institution," and their actions have led us to "one of the scariest moments in our history... it's a festering time-bomb and we're not sure when it will explode."
"We Are Failing To Deliver On Our Obligations As Americans"
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 13:45 "...we are failing to deliver on our obligations as Americans, that is undeniable. We are allowing the political class to plunder our wealth, negate our freedoms and desecrate our Constitution. Sadly we have become the immoral populace our founding fathers warned all future generations not to become... The duty and obligation is ours and so too then are the failures and successes of our society. We are 15 years in to what is absolute denial regarding the competence of our nation’s policymakers. Yet here we sit, silent and indifferent to our own demise; so completely antithetical to the character of a true American."
Taking The Monetary Policy Ride Into The Theater Of The Absurd
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 11:37 Somehow, monetary policy is still believed neutral in the long run and that bubbles are market events. Central banks have shown why they cannot command economic performance, but that doesn’t mean they can’t give one hell of a comedic performance. We have taken a monetary ride now into the theater of the absurd.
Venezuela's Maduro Claims US Pilot Arrested For Espionage, Bans Bush, Cheney From Entering Nation
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 10:48 In case the world needed any more geopolitical risk "hotspots", overnight Venezuela's flailing president Nicolas Maduro, faced with an unprecedented economic crisis at home, decided to do what most authoritarian rulers do when faced with imminent civil unrest: point the finger abroad, and in this case, at Washington, as a distraction. Overnight Maduro switched from broad generalizations to specifics when, as CNN reports, Maduro said Saturday an unspecified number of Americans were arrested "a few days ago" for engaging in espionage and recruitment activities. Additionally, a group of prominent U.S. officials, current and retired, will be banned from entering Venezuela because of what Maduro said was their involvement in "bombing Iraq, Syria and Vietnam" and other "terrorist" actions. The officials include George W. Bush, former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, former CIA Director George Tenet.
Caught On Tape: The Moment Boris Nemtsov Was Assassinated
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 10:09 As the world contemplates the various 'provocation' scenarios - a Russian act, a CIA act meant to look like a Russian act, or a Russian act meant to look like a CIA act? - the following clip suggests this was anything but an ad hoc shooting... Questions remain, but Soviet ex-President Mikail Gorbachev is sure, the assassination of opposition politician Boris Nemtsov as an attempt to destabilize Russia.
Tens Of Thousands Rally In Moscow To Mourn Slain Boris Nemtsov
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/01/2015 - 09:19 If there was supposed to be any crackdown on opposition voices in Russia following the shocking death of Boris Nemtsov, it wasn't evident today during a rally in which tens of thousands converged in central Moscow this monring to mourn the veteran liberal politician Boris Nemtsov, whose killing on the streets of the capital has, according to AP, shaken Russia's beleaguered opposition. As AP reports, and as the photos below show, the mourners marched to the bridge near the Kremlin where Nemtsov was gunned down shortly before midnight Friday. "The march could serve to energize the opposition or it could prove to be a brief outpouring of emotions that once again dissipates in a climate of fear."
