UK & Netherlands To Sue Iceland

This is an interesting one. The UK and the Netherlands are looking to sue Iceland in order to recover £3.5 Billion lost when Icelands major banks collapsed. The people of Iceland voted not to support a repayment package despite the Prime Minister being in favour of settling the debt.

Iceland is already dealing with enough greedy corporate swine trying to make a buck off them. The reason their banks failed? Because they keep getting screwed! Not only that, but there is a massive aluminum company trying to get the rights to mine in Iceland & they have been protesting this since the 70's!

& my favorite Icelandic musician is fighting tooth & nail against it. Go Björk!

We'll troll the petition to the government !

Monday 17th of January at 10:00 the Icelandic Government has invited the initiators of the petition at orkuaudlindir.is to a meeting at the Government Offices in Lækjargata (it's Stjórnarráðið, the old house across the main square, with statues in front).

The initiators now kindly ask everyone that agrees upon the petition lines: -that people in Iceland should get their energy resources back- to meet in front of this Stjórnarráð-house -if possible to get away from work at this time- and sing with us: We'll troll the petition to the Government ! The song is simple: Sá ég spóa...(I did see a Whimbrel!) and ends with an alarming bird-noise: Bí, bí, bí, bí... to remind of the spring ! This song will be sung in a troll/in a round; one takes up the tune from another, so the song will continue around the country!

This is really ridiculous, the UK and Holland should not have made any bail outs when the Icelandic banks failed and those who lost money should have taken it on the chin and learned to do their banking locally in the future.

This just seems like another attempted power grab perhaps on behalf of the EU, turn Iceland into another Ireland.

To be honest though i can't see the UK going ahead with it as according to reports on Saturday they have recouped the majority of the money via asset liquidation.

I just hope that Iceland's defiant citizens can hold their ground against the influence of corrupt money-mongering countries like the Netherlands and UK.

It's only a matter of time before actions like these on the public's behalf become more and more common throughout Europe and beyond.

Finally, the world is realizing who's been really screwing our world all along.

In September, internal documents from Kaupthing, the largest bank in Iceland, were leaked to WikiLeaks. On 29 September 2008, a plan was announced for the bank Glitnir to be nationalised by the Icelandic government with the purchase of a 75% stake for €600 million.[31][32] The government stated that it did not intend to hold ownership of the bank for a long period, and that the bank was expected to carry on operating as normal. According to the government, the bank "would have ceased to exist" within a few weeks if there had not been intervention.

So these were PRIVATE banks, which the Icelandic government was somehow compelled to nationalize in order to SAVE the banks and prevent people from losing everything, and now the nation is being sued for debt it really shouldnt have in the first place, by the ungrateful greedbags that Iceland nationalized the banks to protect.

What nice guys. Try to sue the third party you werent even doing business with in the first place that stuck its neck out to try and save you from your own bad decision making and greed.

Moral of the story---- politicians are in bed with multinational corporations and banks, and they are nationalizing PRIVATE debt as a way to force the collapse of said nations sovereignty.

Wake up people. Your countries are being stolen.

They need to be looking at their own leaders too, as should Ireland. Why should the debt of private concerns have been nationalized in the first place? It shouldnt have. Period.

Hi I'm Dutch and I think the Icelandic people have every right to deny payment.

It was not their money, loan or loss the banks screwed up. Maybe even their government.

They have got my blessing.

To Iceland and its people. Keep your backs straight and don't let them mess with you. Good luck.

I cant speak for everyone, but I personally know its not the people of those nations making this happen. What is going on in the world right now is happening DESPITE the worlds people, not because of them. Politicians are either being bribed or strong armed to betray their own nations and sell their people out to the globalists.

We definitely should not be pointing fingers at the citizens of our fellow nations, we need solidarity with the worlds sovereign people, not conflict. We need to put our collective feet down and refuse to allow this out right war against our national sovereignty.

I agree with most of you post but I don’t give a dam about national sovereignty.

Debt is designed to enslave those in debt and enable those the debt is owed to.

Its our money being given to Ireland and Portugal. Is it? then why don’t I get a say in it?

Who benefits from the loan the Irish people, the Portuguese people?

You don’t need to fight the man, stop paying taxes or march down streets. All you need do is buy enough to live on and no more and the machine breaks within months.

Trouble is most love to live as slaves it means they don’t then have to think and can blame others for the # life they lead.

Before you ask, yes I live without debt and I live well and I am by no means rich. Try it.

It would be very interesting to have this go to court so there will be some accountability as to who actually done what. Considering how may trillions went missing with the GFC there has not been the investigation to throw out the bad apples, sounds like most of them got promoted instead.

"Ireland" shouldnt need to borrow money from "you." They, like Iceland, are being forced to take on debt to save a private business. Those private bankers should personally be borrowing money from "you." Those banks were in Ireland, but they were not the property of the Irish people. For all we know, Englishmen owned them.

Originally posted by colin42Who benefits from the loan the Irish people, the Portuguese people?

Obviously not. The money being "Loaned" to the people of Ireland and Iceland is being used to bail out private banks. So the tax payers are being put in debt to bail out some rich wankers. This is clearly not in their best interests.

And why dont you care about your national sovereignty? I personally LIKE the idea that people in my country can choose our own customs, laws, etc. I dont want us to lose the right to govern ourselves.

Here's a story I saw earlier tday which illustrates one of two things......

Either a) Gordon Brown and the last Government were so greedy and living the 'goodlife' that they didn't know, or even care about the ''tangled world of finance'??

or

b) They were more Stupid than I first thought by being used to 'de-stablisie' the system in the run up to a NWO change....


The former prime minister told a US conference he had not realised the "entanglements" of global institutions.

He said: "We set up the FSA believing the problem would come from the failure of an individual institution. That was the big mistake.

"We didn't understand just how entangled things were."

Mr Brown said he had to "accept my responsibility" but added he was not the only one who had made mistakes.
