December 22, 2008     ECrisis hopes you will study the VOA announcement below, especially the line about Iran and its correspondent banks, currently being shut down inside the USA: currently as a "known proliferators" of weapons of mass destruction. In other words, all of Rafael Correa's marriages of manipulative convenience, or as he says, "just for the money" is not sacrosanct and is not legitimate and is about as meaningful as any arranged marriage. Correa has plunged, by caveat and by his direct acts, all Ecuadoreans in to his version of a sacrosanct arranged marriage which is not sacred, is manipulative, is illegal and does launder Iran's dirty money through all of Ecuador as well as sells fake Iranian passports and safe passage to the USA and other points for more....terror and crime.
 
We are past being worried about the failure to report Ecuadorean criminality. We are concerned that more arrests continue.
 
We are encouraging you to read and study what your fake marriages of convenience get you: absolutely zero credibility even as Iran runs its dirty money through the Channel Islands and in to many nations. Americans are forbidden by law from doing any business with Iran's dirty money:

US Freezes Assets of Iran-Linked Company 
By VOA News
17 December 2008 

The U.S. Treasury Department has designated a New York-based company as a front for an Iranian bank that Washington says helps spread weapons of mass destruction.

The Treasury Wednesday said it is freezing the U.S. assets of ASSA Corporation, which runs a building on New York City's Fifth Avenue, and its parent company, ASSA Corporation Limited, located in the Channel Islands.  The order also prohibits Americans from doing any business with them.

The United States accuses the companies of fronting for Iran's Bank Melli, funneling money from the United States to Iran in what a Treasury official calls "yet another example of Iran's duplicity."  Treasury says Bank Melli is a "known proliferator" of weapons of mass destruction.

The Acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Lev Dassin praised the investigative work of the FBI, New York City police, and the Internal Revenue Service.

The United States has supported three rounds of United Nations sanctions on Iran for its disputed nuclear program.  It also has taken unilateral action on various Iranian entities.

We at ECrisis have long pondered WHY no one has said one word about Ecuadorean cartel crime. We have reported here that Correa has bankrupted Ecuador and has no ready cash because he has over spent Ecuadorean funds to bribe this land with his false promises of reform, his false promises to be a real partner for honest government and his fake promises to serve as commander in chief. Correa has failed in every thing he touches because he lies and manipulates.

And now no bank, no business and no commerce from Ecuador is not tainted by the criminal stench of this very bad marriage with Iran's dirty money movers to expand Iran's ideology which is....terror. This is what happens when Ecuadoreans forget to stand up to fake relationships which exist to further manipulative living and do not exist for real good.

At some point someone will shut down Correa's cartel and we hope it is soon. No doubt we will hear the same words, under oath, from a foolish North American that like Venezuela's banks who were only trying to help the poor and were not self enriching through Chavez's crime spree- thus are innocent, we are sure we will hear this same canard, also called lying to the US Congress by a paid lobbyist from Washington, DC, about Ecuador. It will be a lie twice told at that point.

We look to Banco Pacifico first for money laundering since Correa stole this bank. We assume that Banco de Guayaquil continues to soothe the USA by its false claims to have clean hands when in fact it poured its resources in to supporting Correa's crime spree and never once has reported anything honestly, including its on going American Visa payment center. Like so much in Ecuador, its ruination is its addiction to manipulative business and living practices. We know that Banco de Pichincha laundered FARC monies for Correa's FARC protecting so called Assembly over the last year and no one batted an eye. We are long past being- what do they call it-? "worried" about Correa's crime spree.

We are long past being, what does the USA call it?- without all the facts about Ecuador. This is a lazy and irresponsible position reflecting future job seeking aspirations, also called failure to perform on the job. We remind that there exists more than enough cause to shut down and never again enable Correa's crime spree with Iran and the FARC and we refuse to pretend that these so called contractors making evaluations about Ecuador are honest nor delivering any value for their pay, prolonging their tortuous incompetence to extend their own contracts. This is also called politically motivated cover ups to assist Correa's communist crime cartel and also to self enrich.  More than enough facts exist to deem Correa a drug king pin under U.S. law. More than enough criminal support for Iran exists inside Ecuador to shut down Ecuador's banking and militarization machine, however nascent. What we do not know is WHO is paying to protect and enable Correa's machinations? Who are Correa's co-addicts in crime? _____ We do not really want to know. Just send your answers to the US FBI in Miami or the Financial Crimes Unit of the U.S. Treasury Department. Forget about being lazy and complaining to US ambassador Hodges- her embassy team is not helpful and is busy selling contracts to aid and abet Correa's communist drug cartel because George Soros believes he can make money off these crimes. Indeed, it is beginning to look as if the Soros team, currently advising ambassador Hodges and concurrently the Correa cartel is emerging as the main economic crimes advisor, an aberrant investment banking effort if you will. We know that Soros is involved with Barclays.

Barclays recently exposed its own role as running Chavez's derivatives swaps off Correa's bond market manipulations. For this crime, the CAF gifted the derivatives criminals its cool one billion in fees after the IDB refused to participate in this scam. And if you prefer to tell us that Soros does not sell drug legalization and does not manipulate markets for fun and profit, please justify your opinions with data- hard data. But do not ever tell us that Soros is assisting the USA in bringing to justice these cartel criminals in the Andes for he is not. Nor is Correa. In fact Soros pays money to scores of employees to tell us that Uribe is evil and that the FARC are just a political group trying to help the poor. And you buy this canard and you play with these liars and welcome them in to your government and embassies like a seductive dark shadow.

But we are past worrying about the Soros engineers of deception and fraud. Soros is busy now with his own Cabinet, 95 % of the entire Obama team in Washington now. We are concerned that Ecuador just married Iran for more crime, more money and more weapons of deception and or death.

You should be worried to the point where you demand that Correa immediately break with Iran. They will come for you next.

Ecuador does not deserve the use and abuse of the U.S. dollar to launder Chavez's currency or Iranian currency even though Correa would like to launder the Russian rubble. Ecuador does not deserve any ATPDEA free trade extension because Ecuador has been lying about its so called war on the FARC which of course does not exist except in the minds of over paid lobbyists, lawyers who should be de barred for lying and propagandists, such as Soros and Obama's preferred scripters at Fenton. Ecuador does not deserve to steal from persons or companies and then lie about it as if justified, following the pattern of lying about theft and drug running taught to Correa by his mother to enable his drug dealing father. Addiction to manipulations is always taught at home. But Correa's mother has run away to the USA and avoids her son's tender mercies. There is a story there somewhere, most likely money running and even handed justice in the USA, which the Correa family despises for tossing Mr. Correa in jail, but abuses anyway.

These are not honest people- they only use people and places and move on. Like locusts and disease-carrying vermin. Why is la Madre de Correa still in the USA- a place she despises? Why is she not enjoying her son's beneficence and what does she do to earn her daily fare in the USA and who pays her?____ We do not know. Yet. Moreover, why is Sra. Correa in the USA? She has no interest in building any community- only extending her manipulative living ethos. She has no respect for what it takes to keep the USA safe and secure and even less respect for same but she does enjoy taking and taking and taking from the very nation she despises and about which her own son, whom she trained, steals from and lies about and despises for the very democracy in the USA that shields this hand maiden of manipulative living, also called dishonesty. Why is she here and who pays her?

Today saw the Quito Chamber's Blasco Peñaherrera Solah telling us all that Correa's "crisis" is self inflicted. Indeed this is true. Like all Ecuadorean problems, this latest crisis is just one more in a long string of manipulation upon manipulation with no way out until some adult finally gets sick and tried of being used as the enabler and co addict and says: NO MAS. But Ecuadoreans want to pretend that none of this is their fault and that they bear no adult responsibility whatsoever for their own demise. Of course they don't- Correa incorrectly told them so.

Blasco here is right, if not late as usual.

We commend Blasco's points and urge our readers to listen again, here from Ecuadorenvivo:

            Peñaherrera: Correa es el culpable de la crisis del país

 
lunes, 22 de diciembre de 2008 07:09 AM 
La crisis financiera internacional es otra cosa. El presidente de la Cámara de Comercio de Quito, Blasco Peñaherrera Solah, ha dicho hoy en la mañana que el mal manejo de la economía durante dos años es la causa de la crisis del Ecuador. (Ecuavisa) (jtr)

Blasco reports that the commercial sector has been trying to meet with Correa [who knew?] to restore a functioning business climate, to no avail. Correa refuses to respond. This is Correa's current operational plan to cherry pick those to meet with which are always those who can assist his propaganda or promote his ruinous communist cartel in Ecuador. Blasco should not be surprised to get the door slammed in his face. Correa has refused to answer a very serious list of questions about his formal relationship with Iran.

Correa's manipulative business plans have revealed his deceptiveness and his gay abandon for integrity.
 
And this short terse bulletin today from HOY on Correa threatening bankers for creating a manipulative unreality in Ecuador's face... a situation which Correa himself created but does now blame Ecuador's bankers for this "instability" and threatens to jail them, with no due process and no back up data on the so called crimes:
