This is taken from an article on the topic by Paul Craig Roberts, a very distinguished American economist, and former Reagan appointee:
The Strauss Kahn Frame-Up: The Amerikan Police State Strides Forward http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=24840
It is convenient for the Western elite that the public does this puppet dance for them, hysterically labeling anyone who points a laser beam of suspicion on their dirty deeds as some kind of nut case.
In the early 1930s Wall Street tried to orchestrate a coup d'etat against FDR in order to create a fascist regime in the US. A prominent American general (Smedley Butler) blew the whistle on this scheme, but the congress helped to cover it up and none of the perpetrators were ever prosecuted (of course). The alliance between the financial elite and congress was actually cemented a long time ago. In the end, writers and others who tried to expose the scheme to the public were labeled "paranoid" by the ruling class. They have used this tactic for a long time. It is very effective. Much has been written about this event, by the way. A google search will yield plenty of good, solid info on the story. It is the fact that they covered it up with the public by using this paranoid label that interests me. They still do this even today and the public has never yet caught on. We need to stop thinking it is crazy to think ill of these people. We all know that in Russia such things are commonplace politicallly. It is no different in the West.
This is just a hunch, not technical. I believe the EU has every intention of maintaining a kind of economic supremacy. They will do erything within their power to maintain a strong euro - plus the US is doing everything in its power to debase the currency as a means of inflating their way out of their debts. Both are a matter of firm policy. US policy makers will do everything they can to avoid weakening the agenda of the military industrial complex, which is their primary agenda for the nation, despite whatever nonsesne they tell the public. I think there is little chance of a major pullback for the anti-dollar at this time. I expect it to pop.
