Ben Bernanke always was a revisionist liar… but now his misguided policies are actually killing people… literally.
In case you’ve missed it, food riots are spreading throughout the developing world Already Tunisia, Algeria, Oman, and even Laos are experiencing riots and protests due to soaring food prices.
As Abdolreza Abbassian, chief economist at the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), put it, “We are entering a danger territory.”
Indeed, these situations left people literally starving… AND dead from the riots.
And why is this happening?
A perfect storm of increased demand, bad harvests from key exporters (Argentina, Russia, Australia and Canada, but most of all, the Fed’s money pumping.
If you don’t believe me, have a look at the chart of the Rogers Agricultural commodities index below:

BANK RUN ON REVENGE WEDNESDAY, 26 JAN
========================= ============
On Wednesday 26 January 2011, thousands of people in the UK will try to cause a bank run by withdrawing money from
their bank accounts, in person, at high street bank branches.
The hope is that the movement will snowball.
Everyone is welcome. Just print out the form below, fill in your details, and take it to your bank, preferably around
lunchtime, e.g. about 1pm. Even better, print out multiple copies and hand them round. Use email, Twitter, Facebook
too.
When the first bank branch says it won’t pay out people’s money, let everyone know, using every means possible. Take
photos. Use mobile phones, send tweets, get the journalists in on the picture. This movement is decentralised. It is
what you and we make it.
Note that this idea was tried last December, after being suggested by Eric Cantona. Unfortunately it didn’t go very
far, mainly because the organisers asked people to “sign up” online. We’re not asking you to sign up to anything. In
particular, you do NOT have to give any personal details to anyone. The form below is just for giving to your BANK.
If you can only afford to withdraw 10 pounds, please do it. If you can afford to withdraw thousands of pounds, do
that too. EVERY LITTLE HELPS. Banks cannot withstand everyone withdrawing even a tenth of what they’ve got in the
bank. LET’S SEND THESE PARASITES A MESSAGE THEY’LL NEVER FORGET. It’s an open secret that they’re holding the country
to ransom. Let’s kick ‘em where it hurts.
This is the financial system’s MAJOR WEAK SPOT. That’s why the Dutch government is considering making it illegal to
call for a bank run. Because they’re SCARED. In 2009 there was a bank run against a Dutch bank. This was considered
to be a particularly unpleasant bank, which had been encouraging millions od Dutch people to get into debt who
couldn’t afford it. People did a run against it, and it went bankrupt. How sad.
In Britain, you’d be hard pushed to name a bank which DIDN’T try to get people into massive debt they can’t really
afford.
Here’s the bottom line: THE BANKS HAVE GOT IT COMING TO THEM.
So please take part. Spread the news. Distribute this leaflet. Print your own. Just do a little bit to help, and
we’ll be strong and we’ll blast the damn banks like they’ve never been blasted before.
Please print the following, complete the details, and hand it to your bank around 1pm on 26 Jan 2011.
