254 RESIGNATIONS FROM WORLD BANKS, INVESTMENT HOUSES, MONEY FUNDS

Updated 3/10/12 More additions, thanks to Sophie who has kept me very busy. Thanks also to Gabriel at http://www.facebook.com/MassResignations for tracking Insurance, Government and Healthcare Resignations.


"from comments - They've been given a deadline of March 23 (or 31) to resign or they will be arrested. The corrupt know who they are. This is a worldwide effort to clean up the rats in banking, government and elsewhere. Access to funds has been blocked so they have no choice. Yes, there may be a short period of a downturn, but hopefully the new system will come into place right away. This is why people need to have emergency supplies on hand in case the system shuts down. It has to be."

ANOTHER Resignation! James Murdoch (Ruperts son) Steps Down As Executive Chairman Of News International

The Rumor Mill News Reading Room

ANOTHER Resignation! James Murdoch (Ruperts son) Steps Down As Executive Chairman Of News International
Posted By: Susoni
Date: Tuesday, 6-Mar-2012 16:13:49

Perhaps he is just taking the fall for Dear ol Daddy.. If so, he shall be rewarded in time..
Susoni
************************************************
James Murdoch has stepped down as executive chairman of News International, the British arm of News Corp., the company announced Wednesday. Murdoch, who was once seen as the heir apparent to his father Rupert at the head of News Corp., has now lost a key position within the company.
News Corp. cast the move as stemming from James' recent relocation to New York from London, and Rupert Murdoch said his son would "continue to assume a variety of essential corporate leadership mandates." He will also remain as the deputy COO of News Corp. But the reshuffling will be widely seen as a reflection of James' deeply diminished stature following wave after wave of damaging allegations about his complicity in News Corp.'s still-simmering phone hacking scandal. That scandal has mushroomed into a full-blown nightmare for the company, with the persistent threat of serious prosecution hanging in the air.
James has long denied having any knowledge of the widespread nature of phone hacking within the News of the World tabloid. But a series of testimonies and released documents have put him ever-closer to a crucial 2008 meeting in which the former editor and legal director of the paper have sworn he was informed that criminality had been out of control within the organization.

INTEL ON ARRESTS - GATES, GEITHNER, KISSINGER --- MUST READ

This is one of those Rare “FASTEN YOUR SEATBELTS” Intel reports.

I received permission from higher ups to post this as You All Need To Know.
According to several high level and down the rabbit hole sources, this was relayed to me.

These are rumors and yet to be verified. Use discernment.

Geithner, our ‘in-trouble ‘Fed Treasury boy was detained and is now under protective custody. In the questioning process, he revealed all the alleged attempted thefts of George Bush Sr. related to the Global Settlements and PP distributions.

George Bush Sr. under questioning revealed that Bill Gates’s team was responsible for the software controlled hacking of the accounts. Over 40 trap doors were discovered that directed stolen funds to be deposited in offshore accounts of Bush Sr, Obama and others. These have been found and plugged by the White Knights Computer Experts with Galactic Assistance.

Bill Gates was flown to China for a nasty confrontation on the matter.
It is alleged that Bill Gates is now under arrest & protective custody. He is alleged being charged with over 30 counts of treason. It also alleged that Bill Gates was the one delaying the RV as he had control of the red button which interfered with the processing.

It is also alleged that Henry Kissinger is under arrest as well as many of the Dark Cabal Families.
The Dark Cabal Rats are panicky and turning on each others. They are threatening to kill each other and that is one reason they are under protective custody.

As always this intel is written on jello and may change anytime.

Thank You White Knights, Thank You Galactics, Thank You LORD

GOD Bless You & Yours, GOD BLESS AMERICA
John MacHaffie HIS Humble Servant

FROM THE COMMENTS

I JUST RECEIVED CONFIRMATION THAT BILL GATES WAS HOLDING UP THE RV AND IS UNDER ARREST!

Geeee I may have this one right LOL!



FBI Building Insider Trading Cases on 120 Wallstreeters


http://youtu.be/RJ5wvZV70js





Story reposted from heraldsun.com.au

FEDERAL authorities are seeking to build insider trading cases against roughly 120 individuals on and off Wall Street in an expanding criminal insider trading investigation that has shaken the financial and corporate worlds.

The disclosure - the first time authorities have quantified the number of people under scrutiny - comes on the heels of a string of successful prosecutions of insider trading.
Since late 2009, prosecutors have charged 66 individuals at hedge funds and other companies with insider trading and won 57 convictions or guilty pleas.
"We've identified them, and now of course we have to build a case around that," David Chaves, a senior FBI agent, said Monday in an interview following a presentation to reporters at FBI headquarters in Manhattan.
During the presentation, just blocks from Wall Street, the FBI unveiled a one-minute public service announcement against insider trading featuring actor Michael Douglas, whose fictional character Gordon Gekko in the 1987 movie "Wall Street" popularized the line: "Greed, for lack of a better word, is good."
The government currently is investigating whether roughly 240 individuals, including hedge-fund traders and company insiders, improperly shared insider information, said Chaves.
Roughly half of those, or 120, are "targets," meaning the government believes they have violated insider-trading laws and is actively building cases against them, according to Chaves, who oversees one of two white-collar crime squads handling the New York-based insider trading investigations.
The rest are what the FBI calls "subjects," meaning investigators believe they could have committed crimes and have approached them or could do so to build cases.
The large number of "targets" of the investigation - dubbed "Perfect Hedge" by FBI agents - illustrates that the insider trading probe is broader and deeper than previously believed and potentially the most expansive of its kind in modern history.
In the major 1980s insider trading cases, "generally the number of people in a particular ring, you could count on both hands," said Barry Goldsmith, a lawyer who back then was a chief litigation counsel in the SEC's enforcement division.
The current rings are much broader, involving bankers, analysts, corporate insiders, consultants and traders, he said.
Monday's disclosure indicates that arrests could move into new firms on Wall Street and US corporations, and could continue for several more years.
In the past year, the government has won a number of insider trading convictions, using wiretaps and other investigative methods once confined to terrorist and drug cases.

German Prosecutors Launch 80 Raids & Make Many Arrests in Insider Trading Probe




Reposted from the guardian.co.uk

MUNICH, (Reuters) March 1 Police in several European countries have raided more than 80 properties in a probe by German prosecutors into stock market manipulation, the Munich prosecutors office said on Thursday.
The office's spokesman said the raids on Wednesday were into suspected cases of market manipulation, insider trading and fraud.
Fifty-three sites in Germany were searched, 29 in other European countries and four outside Europe.
He declined to identify the people or any companies under suspicion, saying only a double-digit number of people were involved.
"The investigation is at an early stage. The analysis could take a while," the spokesman said, adding that it could take years.
He said that there were "some similarities" to four recent Munich court cases where people running stock market newsletters and tip sheets targeted at retail investors had been tried for market manipulation.
Two of the cases, which also implicated members of a shareholder rights lobby group, have ended with confessions, suspended prison sentences and fines. The remaining cases are still being tried. (Reporting by Christian Kraemer; Writing by Ludwig Burger; Editing by Will Waterman)

Arrested Bush Snr & Bill Gates by Benjamin Fulford

Weekly Geopolitical News and Analysis20120305: The hunt is on, cabal arrests accelerating

The ongoing financial war is accelerating with arrests and assassinations being seen on both sides. George Bush Senior and Bill Gates were arrested last week for sabotaging the new financial system after being fingered by Timothy Geithner, pentagon sources say. The Federal Reserve Board crime syndicate cabalists for their part murdered Lord James Blackheath on February 29th, after he denounced their theft of $15 trillion in the British House of Lords. The White Dragon Society, meanwhile has put out an all points bulletin seeking the immediate arrest for questioning of former Hong Kong Police Chief Peter Stevens.

Stevens is wanted on charges of smuggling into Japan the nuclear weapon that was used for the 311, 2011 nuclear and tsunami attack against Japan. Stevens is currently located at the Puerto Galera yacht club in the Philippines.

The gnostic illuminati family and the hacker group anonymous have also agreed to join forces with the White Dragon Society with a program of attacks on Monsanto and other cabal strongholds. The Rockefellers, Krugers, Openheimers, Mellons, Warburgs, Rothschilds, Bushes, Morgans http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif and other cabal families will be systematically hunted down and rounded up if they do not surrender within the month of March.

102 Resignations From World Banks

American Kabuki Updated List 2-29-12… “102 Resignations From World Banks”

[UPDATE 3-1-12 0900 HST: Thanks to Waypoint who pointed out that three of the dates below should be 2011 instead of 2012. The list appears to be in chronological order.]

Well, we can certainly sing our praises for American Kabuki’s upated list (found here at RMN). The list keeps growing. Mahalo American Kabuki!

102 RESIGNATIONS FROM WORLD BANKS 2/29/12

UPDATED 3/01/12
Removed duplicate entry for Nomura, added 2 more resignations. Updated links to Sri Lanka and Ukraine to better web site (thanks to Rockinjude for links). Changed text URLs to be active URLs.

UPDATED 2/29/12

Note: I have extensively edited this list, re-verified links, shortened URLs to make this list more readable. Its grown very rapidly over the past week and was getting unwieldy in its prior form. In some cases certain middle eastern bankers and European private bankers have managed to have their names removed from smaller blogs and news sites so I have updated those cases to larger news organizations less likely to bow to pressure. At the time of this posting all URLs listed work, I do not guarantee they always will. I have also added missing names (in bold) and those URLSs where more than one person was resigning I expanded the item to have one line each, since everyone who copies this to their blogs (wow did this spread far and wide!) views each instance as one banker resigning I thought I’d make this listing more reflect that viewpoint. I do not know under what circumstances these individuals have left their positions, I make no judgement on that. I just find the timing of so many resignations extremely curious and a bit of temporal marker in history of very high significance. No one should assume I make any judgement about the character of these people. I frankly don’t know their reputations except for a few rather famous ones. I don’t mind if you re-blog this listing, information wants to fly free, just do me a favor of including http://americankabuki.blogspot.com and this header when you do so. Save yourself the wear and tear on your karma. Thanks Kauilapele for the heads up on the broken links.
