At the upcoming Summit of the Americas, heads of Central American states will raise an important debate on the viability of the current war on (some) drugs. However, according to this Guardian article, the Obama administration, also in attendance at the summit, “does not want to be seen as softening its support for prohibition".

LIES, LIES, LIES...
Keep your eyes open for the upcoming BBC2 interview with the man who claims to have fabricated much of the information leading to the invasion of Iraq. This might be surprising to some, but to regular readers of Bread & Circuses it shouldn't. Is he coming clean, or is he helping other appear less culpable? Caveat lector.

A PERSPECTIVE ON THE MYSTERIOUS $15 T
Regular readers will be familiar with some of my own speculation into U.S. money-laundering (and counterfeiting of its own currency). Of interest, my own theorizing was based on a series of logical deductions that implied that some massive money-laundering operation (of counterfeit currency) must be taking place in the dying U.S. economy. And now we have a detailed paper-trail on the largest (known) money-laundering operation in history.

OUCH!
A very revealing resignation letter from Greg Smith, formerly of Goldman Sachs.
TODAY is my last day at Goldman Sachs.
After almost 12 years at the firm — first as a summer intern while at Stanford, then in New York for 10 years, and now in London — I believe I have worked here long enough to understand the trajectory of its culture, its people and its identity. And I can honestly say that the environment now is as toxic and destructive as I have ever seen it.

STEALTH SURFING
“Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in the western world are required by law to track nearly everything you do online. While the US government has been trying to hide their electronic wiretapping program as a state secret, the EU made theirs public by passing theData Retention Directive of 2006. Article 5, under “Categories of data to be retained”, lists the gory details of what is tracked. This is required for home phones, mobile phones, Internet telephony and e-mail. And depending on the country, this information will be kept for 6 months to 2 YEARS."
