Treasury Secretary Paulson ARRESTED in Germany? Cheney subpoena???

Ok, lets wrap our brains around this little nugget. I heard it on C-span this morning. A google gave me this. No confirmation of independent reporting or court dockets on this case....But.

"U.S. TREASURY SECRETARY HENRY M. PAULSON HAS BEEN ARRESTED IN EUROPE

SENTENCING INFLICTS EXTREME DISGRACE UPON THE UNITED STATES GENERALLY

U.S. TREASURY SECRETARY SEIZED AND BROUGHT BEFORE 'AD HOC' TRIBUNAL IN GERMANY ON A SUBPOENA HANDED OUT BY THE INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE ON CHARGES OF MONEY-LAUNDERING, NON-PAYMENT OF THE WANTA $4.5 TRILLION AND FOR MISAPPROPRIATION AND/OR DIVERSION OF COLOSSAL $ SUMS.

VICE PRESIDENT CHENEY LIKEWISE AT THE RECEIVING END OF PARALLEL SUBPOENA FOR SIMILAR CRIMINAL OFFENSE(S).

GERMAN AUTHORITIES EXERCISED THE INTERNATIONAL SUBPOENA, BRINGING PAULSON (AND CHENEY) UNDER GERMAN JURISDICTION, GIVEN THAT GERMAN BANKS TRYING TO MAKE THE WANTA PAYMENT WERE TWICE PREVENTED BY MR PAULSON FROM DOING SO. WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE SECOND TIME, PAULSON WAS ARRESTED.

PAULSON CHARGED WITH DIVERSION OF FUNDS AND WITH NON-PERFORMANCE OF WANTA’S $4.5 TRILLION: HE WAS ARRESTED AFTER SEEING MME ANGELA MERKEL, WHO WOULD OTHERWISE BE COMPLICIT IN THE $4.5 TRILLION THEFT (WHICH OF COURSE SHE IS NOT). BUT THAT WAS THE SITUATION.

ARREST CONFIRMED BY SEVEN SOURCES: KEY U.S. TREASURY OFFICIAL ORDERED TO GERMANY, SUBJECTED TO A GAG ORDER, AND INSTRUCTED TO TESTIFY AGAINST HIS OWN U.S. TREASURY SECRETARY. HE HAS BEEN IN GERMANY FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS, TESTIFYING BEFORE THE TRIBUNAL, STAFF OF THE U.S. CONSULATE AND THE GERMAN ATTORNEY GENERAL (EQUIVALENT) ABOUT THE ENDLESSLY FRUSTRATED ATTEMPTS OF AMBASSADOR WANTA'S CORPORATION, TO OBTAIN RELEASE OF THE FUNDS, AND ABOUT ALLEGED CRIMINAL VIOLATIONS BY PAULSON, GOLDMAN SACHS AND COMPANY, ET AL.

THE U.S. ‘MAINSTREAM MEDIA’ ARE WITHHOLDING THE BIGGEST SCANDAL IN WORLD HISTORY FROM THE MUCH-ABUSED AMERICAN PEOPLE."


YIKES!!

2. And then he was teleported to Ford's funeral

Face it, this is a bullshit story with no source at all.

Just kidding. My parents were only children, so I have no aunts or uncles.

5. I heard that.
Her offer to send the links to C-Span made them sit up and take notice. With the sorry state of our media, nothing would surprise me anymore.

9. that is why so many Americans are walking around not
knowing what is going on in their own country, our news media sanitizes news away from us.

7. This is what happens when you piss off your allies!
Immunity goes out the window and they arrest whomever they can.

Next will come economic sanctions of varying degrees.

Then comes war.

8. Only confirmation I can find
http://snoedel.punt.nl/?id=327189&r=1&tbl_archief=&

"Henry M. Paulson's arrest by German authorities implementing the 'World Court' subpoena, took place on 23rd or 24th of December 2006.

"Although we have been 'sitting on' this intelligence since the Christmas weekend, pending further information, we now have very high-level confirmations from both London and Washington, and a total of seven sources for this intelligence."

Lots more at the link. Don't know what to make of it, but it would be a very nice Christmas present from the Germans if true.

12. This story does not make sense.
If Paulson was arrested, why was he at the funeral?

Anyway I can't find any good and reliable info on this.

This Wanta guy has a few conspiracy theories going on about him. He was supposedly involved in the Foster suicide during the Clinton Administration and in the fall of the Russian currency in the early 90s during the Raygun administration.

The guy certainly gets around. There is a rumor about a Wanta plan - something to do with pumping money into US banks. But I can't find any reliable info on this.

16. I'm calling BS on this story
"THE U.S. ‘MAINSTREAM MEDIA’ ARE WITHHOLDING THE BIGGEST SCANDAL IN WORLD HISTORY FROM THE MUCH-ABUSED AMERICAN PEOPLE"

Yet the media on no other country is reporting this. Not the British, not the German, nor the French.

18. did anyone catch the caller on Washington Journal this morning
Edited on Wed Jan-03-07 01:49 PM by alyce douglas
they had on Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and a caller mentioned this, and both Wasserman Schultz and the Host said they were not aware of it, and the Host asked the caller, don't you think our media would have reported this, the caller bluntly said NO, that is why they are focusing on the Ford Funeral. Wow! it was great.

19. and did the caller indicate that the rest of world's media was focusing on Ford too?
Is that why the German media hasn't reported it?

And I don't think its great when good Democratic members of Congress like Wasserman Shultz have to deal with phone-in nutjobs.
