"Icelanders Overthrow Government and Rewrite Constitution After Banking Fraud - No Word From US Media."

The pots and pans revolution in Iceland was not covered by mainstream U.S. media. In fact, any information about this revolution is found only on international newspapers, blogs and online documentaries, not on mainstream front-page articles as would be expected from news organizations covering a story of this magnitude. The New York Times published a small handful of piecemeal stories, blogs and opinion pieces, but mostly glossed over the main narrative by saying the 2008 financial collapse in Iceland caused “mayhem far beyond the country’s borders” rather than pointing out that Icelanders took to the streets with pots and pans and forced their entire government to resign.

Of course not....we can't have the serfs of Amerika figuring out that they have the power to oust the criminals in office.

No, the MSM has a vested interest in keeping the status quo and making the people believe everything is just "too complicated" and we NEED them to decipher for us and NEED the political class to run it all.

Iceland proves we don't.

Unfortunately, I know quite a lot about Island, and how it was screwed by criminal bankers and politicians. Britain stuck its little knife into Island's back by draining whatever assets were still available under their "anti-terrorism" laws. Friends live there. It is only through the support of friendly Norse countries and the determined ability of some Islanders to bring foreign currency into the country to pay for necessities that it still survives. It is a perfect example of what happens when the international community gangs up on a small, friendly, harmless, homogeneous country. The standard of living is not good. Many people have had to return to the dangerous and over regulated livelihood of living off the sea, as they did in the past. The Icelandic criminal justice system is extremely lenient, and the criminal fraudsters who caused the collapse will do little, if any actual "time". They have hidden their ill-gotten gains. It is unlikely they will ever be recovered. It is unfortunate that in any cases of financial fraud, the "little" people are always the victims.

The questions asked by the article's author about the "possibility" of the "respected" media covering up this story are naive to the point of stupidity. Anybody who hasn't completely figured out by this time that the "mainstream" media in the US are nothing but propaganda mills for the criminals in DC doesn't have the brains to get a job as a spell-checker in an M&M factory.

The Nazis and Soviets would be slobbering all over themselves, like a male dog sniffing a bitch in heat, if they got a gander at the "Mighty Wurlitzer" being played 24/7 in the USSA.
