Fears growing of possible ISIS attack on EU Soil
Members of the European Parliament in Brussels have been told that thousands of European Union citizens have traveled to Syria and Iraq to join the ranks of ISIL.
Senior EU officials say that member states' intelligence agencies must work together more closely to prevent citizens from becoming radicalised online. Their ability to then travel to Syria and Iraq must also be curtailed.

John Williams - We’re Coming to the End Game
John Williams, founder of ShadowStats.com, says, “The big factor here is the U.S. dollar and all sorts of things that impact that. The economy is probably the biggest. You also have the Fed policy. Right now, there is the presumption that the easing is over and they are going to raise interest rates. Guess what? If the stock market continues going as it is and the economy starts turning down, I think the Fed is going back to easing (money printing) again. They will use the economy as cover for its actions in trying to prop up the stock market and trying to prop up the banking system. The Fed’s primary function in life is to prop up the banking system. A weak economy is not good for the banking system. The economy is a sideline for it, and there is very little it can do, but it can use the weak economy as political cover for flooding the system with liquidity and keep the banking system afloat.” Williams goes on to say, “Any pull-back from the ‘taper,’ any shift in expectation, the Fed is going to have a QE 4, will tend to hit the dollar very hard. Along with that, a spike in gold prices and we’re off and running. . . . You are getting a confluence of extraordinary factors that are coming together that will cause the dollar to break. You’ll have a panic flight from the dollar along with dumping of U.S. Treasury bonds by foreign owners. We are coming in on the end game here.”
Lew Rockwell : Governments Lie All The Time & Only Tell Truth When Convenient
Jason Burack of Wall St for Main St had on author, former Ron Paul Chief of Staff, Austrian School Economist and one of the founders of the Ludwig Von Mises Institute, Lew Rockwell of https://www.lewrockwell.com/.
His book will soon be available on audio book as well.
Lew's website is a great source of information for Austrian School Economics, freedom and liberty.
During this 30+ minute interview, Jason starts by asking Lew why many Progressives, Statists, Keynesians and Neo Cons hate Libertarians?
Lew thinks it's because Libertarians try to argue using logic, reason, facts and figures and because Libertarians want to be left alone and not told what to do throughout their everyday lives by government.
Lew talks about how MANY people from both political parties want to completely run people's lives and that's why they dislike/hate Libertarians.
Lew cites the work of Austrian School Economist F.A. Hayek's Road to Serfdom how the most dangerous and immoral people rise to the top in government to get more power and control over everything.
Jason and Lew then talk about Keynesian Economics, the economy, the macroeconomic situation, inflation and how Murray Rothbard predicted much of this decades ago in his great short book, What Has Government Done to Our Money?
In that book, which was written decades ago, Rothbard talks about inflation, currency wars and how crazy Keynesians, central planners and interventionists want a one world currency like the SDR or Keynes' Bancorp.
Jason and Lew talk about Lew's book, what solution Lew proposes to waking people up and how government can be gradually reduced in size before perhaps ultimately eliminated.
Lew has a new book out called: Against the State: An Anarcho-Capitalist Manifesto that can be purchased here:
