Brazil’s Parliamentary Coup and the “Progressive Media” [View all]
By Peter Koenig
....Why is Washington and its financial institutions behind the coup? Already more than a year ago secret talks between the IMF, WB and the current coup-makers have taken place. Brazil is going to be handed over first to the IMF, which makes sure that the austerity programs are implemented à la Greece then to Wall Street which will make sure that the debt level is so that privatization of public assets is justified and unavoidable. The newly Temer appointed head of Brazils Central Bank, Ilan Goldfajn, who also has a history with the IMF, will make sure that Brazil follows the financial oligarchys prescribed line.
By controlling Brazil, Washington has its claws again firmly on Latin America, almost as if the renowned Latin America democratic revolutions towards independence never took place.
And thirdly, also a key for subduing Brazil is that Brazil is an important member of the BRICS crucial for its economic strength and potential as well as for its geographic equilibrium it will bring to the BRICS. The BRICS are led by Russia and China countries which have already largely detached their economies from the western dollar-based system, and are developing their own, linked to economic output and to gold yes, gold. Both Russias and Chinas currencies are gold backed. While the western fiat money is made of thin air.
In the western world, its the fake dollar-euro based monetary system that makes the economy, its not the economy that makes the monetary system, as it should be, since the economy should serve as the base for any monetary system that is supposed to reflect a healthy, honest, and fair economy within and between countries. That is what the BRICS would promote. Therefore, the BRICS have to be eliminated one by one. They are a danger for the US-led western financial hegemony over the world....
