    don’t let the naive/ignorant haters put you down pal-your video is 100% true! we Greeks know about it first hand-we’re literally living the IMF’s interference consequences in our economy even now as we speak…it’s obvious that they’ve chosen usa for their next victim,but our incompetent politicians don’t seem to do anything to prevent it…

    And yet there are still those out there that dismiss us as conspiracy nuts when we are trying to tell them of a conspiracy that’s right in front of their eyes. Unbelievable how they get away with it too: We’ll call it helping the poor as we make them suffer more, we’ll call it development instead of raping their resources, we’ll call it democracy instead of pumping up dictatorships. Yet, people are still in denial.

    @arzoyan its called corporatism now days, get it straight. huge corporate entities have the same rights as small business. that’s the problem. the criminal scum have no limits. because they can claim discrimination like they have so many times already.

    These are the vampires of the world, preying on every opportunity to kill, destroy and rob the nations of the world. Russia, Ukraine, Greece, Africa, South America, Indonesia, now Iceland and Baltic countries and many more to come will suffer at the hands of the IMF, WTB, US Fed Reserve. The thing most don’t realize is that the thread between these organizations leads to the same set of people and same families and bonds. It’s a ruthless system to enslave the world.

    DID YOU KNOW
    Muslims believe that they are not fallen and have no need for a SAVIOR.
    Because Muslims are not saved they need to do GOOD WORKS and Islam teaches that people are born innocent and remain so until they make themselves guilty by a guilty deed in order to gain salvation. This explains why they like to KILL others and with the blood of others on their hands is GOOD WORKS for them and they think this will gain them their salvation.
    This is why Muslims are all SCREWED UP.

  23. jeremysjaz says:

    ummm, this is stupid.
    its obviously partly fabricated, you can tell, so maybe do a better job next time.
    its also obvious that you are cutting out other parts of interviews and placing different videos together just to make it sound like you are right.
    get a life!
