NATO Is Harboring ISIS, And Here’s The Evidence

from Zero hedge:
“Why are Western leaders expressing their determination to “destroy” ISIS using all means necessary, while avoiding the most significant factor of all: the material infrastructure of ISIS’ emergence in the context of ongoing Gulf and Turkish state support for Islamist militancy in the region.”
For the better part of a year, Turkey remained on the sidelines in the “fight” against ISIS.
Then, on July 20, a powerful explosion ripped through the town of Suruc. 33 people were killed including a number of Socialist Party of the Oppressed (ESP) and Socialist Youth Associations Federation (SGDF) members who planned to assist in the rebuilding of Kobani.

Steen Jakobsen Warns "First It Will Get Worse..."

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/25/2015 - 09:42 The world is changing in so many ways which is ignored by markets and commentators. We live an era where the most successful people and businesses create a social virtual reality, where updating your social status is more important than manners, respect and thinking. We think the Paris event is yet another wake up call for the markets on geopolitical risk, for the under-investment in education and basic research, but most importantly for how we continue to ignore facts. First it will get worse... we are simply not prepared for geopolitical risk to matter for markets neither are we yet willing.

In Luis v. US, federal prosecutors are arguing that the government has the power to freeze all of a defendant’s assets, including those that were not earned through criminal activity, in the latest twist and insult to freedom involving civil asset forfeiture.
“What the government proposes to do is financially cripple someone before they’ve been convicted, before they’ve had a trial and not allow them to use assets that are theirs to try to match the government in the courtroom,” defense attorney Howard Srebnick told reporters, in reference to oral arguments made before the high court by U.S. attorneys Nov. 10.
