Civil Disobedience Against Banks - Enric Duran

Enric Duran (AKA Robin Bank) in English from Shaun Chamberlin on Vimeo.

Enric Duran (AKA Robin Bank) is a Catalan activist who spent the two years to 2008 taking out loans totalling nearly half a million euros, and then donated all of the money to various social movements working to build alternatives to our unequal and suicidal economic-political system. I find this video message - revealing what he had done and explaining his motives - to be one of the most inspiring stories of insight and resultant action that I have yet heard.

Here are Enric's words subtitled in English.

As a part of this operation Enric prepared a publication explaining the corruption of our economic system, the looming energy crisis, and the ideas defended by the Degrowth movement, a magazine called 'Crisi' released on Sept 17, 2008. Its associated website can be read also in English:

Enric left Spanish territory 2 days before his action of civil disobedience was made public and is now awaiting the consequences of his campaign.

Greece's Rigged Election

"However, two senior Greek banking officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity given the sensitivity of the issue, said recent withdrawals have not yet reached the pace seen in February, just before Greece staged an orderly debt default with private investors. There were no obvious lines outside banks in Athens Wednesday, though funds are also being shifted around online.

“This isn’t a panic, but we have to make sure it doesn’t turn into one,’’ said one of the banking officials....

Translation; there is a bank run across the continent and the banker's mouthpiece doesn't want you to know it. "

Unofficial opinion polls suggest a fall in support for anti-bailout parties.

Under Greek election law, official opinion polls are banned in the two weeks before the election.

BUMP BACK TO THE TOP AGAIN.

UPDATE: The polls have closed in Greece and even though the exit polls have the New Democratic Party (the money-junkie party) and the SYRIZA party (the anti-austerity party) as within a half point of each other, the western media are in many cases already proclaiming a victory for the money-junkies, that New Democrats will have 160 seats in the Parliament, etc. It is obvious there has been massive vote fraud in Greece, being sold to you with the ludicrous suggestion that the Greek people, driven into abject poverty by corrupt government policies, voted to keep those exact same policies in place. Such a suggestion is patently absurd on the face of it, and given that the United States has a long history of hijacking the democratic process to serve US interests, there is no reason to assume they have not done so here. ...

The chart showing "Trends in Natural Disasters" from CRED, the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters can be viewed at
http://maps.grida.no/go/graphic/trends-in-natural-disasters
That chart though only goes up to the year 2000.
By 2007, reporting by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) claimed that some of the costs of extreme weather events could be attributed to global warming. " "Scientific and technical reports present compelling evidence that human-induced climate change is upon us, and that its consequences could be devastating..." Dr. Baliunas and Dr. Soon. "The number of events have gone up very, very dramatically," CRED Director Debarati Guha-Sapir said in Geneva.

The CRED report went on further to comment that during the 2000 -- 2009 period there had been 385 disasters, an increase of 233% since 1980 to 1989, and a 67% increase since 1990 to 1999. Though earthquakes made up 60% of natural disasters from 2000 to 2009, climate-related events, such as droughts, storms and floods, had made up the majority of disasters overall, increasing tenfold since data was first collected in 1950. And from 1992-2001, about 90% of natural disasters were meteorological or hydrological in origin; the resulting economic losses were estimated at $446bn. see http://community.psion.com/blog/b/weblog/archive/2011/02/23/has-there-been-an...
