John Rubino - Iran False Flag, Drahi's Last Stand and Facebook Goes Crypto

Does Iran really want a war with the US or was it a false flag operation to justify a war? We've seen this scenario happen over and over throughout history. And yet it still works almost every time it's tried. Will this time be different?

And Mario Draghi is at it again. He's willing to cut rates to whatever it takes, except for one small problem, overnight rates on excess bank deposits are already negative. How negative can he go?

Facebook goes crypto. A new crypto has been born and it could be the biggest one to date. They have a lot of institutional support and are well poised to become the dominant player. Will it be the first of many new currencies that are proprietary for company issuers.
