Rajaratnam’s defense lawyer, John Dowd, asked Blankfein whether he was a daily reader of the Wall Street Journal. “Sometimes I do,” Blankfein testified, before hurriedly adding, “Often I do. But not always.”…Blankfein [also said he] checks his bank’s profit every day, prefers voice mail to e-mail and makes unscheduled calls to board members at times of market “uncertainty.” [Bloomberg]

    So then you must physically take the specs from the clients?
    Well… no… i mean… Sometimes… or they’re faxed!

    Goldman Sachs are the biggest Zionistic criminals in the world. They have been behind and are behind every single war, military conflict, financial collapse, terrorist attack since WW1. Goldman Sachs have purposefully orchestrated the following:

    9/11
    the fatal crash of Kaczynski, the Polish President
    The Argentinian default of 2000-2001
    The contamination, with the help of their collaborative criminals Monsanto, of huge expanses of land and entire countries in Central and South America as well as Ireland and the entire Mediterranean basin
    The crisis in Europe
    The financial crisis in Ireland
    The crisis in Greece
    Mass destabilization in North Africa and the Middle East
    The war in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and now Libya
    Provision of expired and dangerous medicines in third world countires particularly in Africa
    Purposeful funding and laboratory creation of the H5N1 swine flu virus and purposeful release of this in Mexico as a testbed ansd Europe.
    Purposeful creation of the AIDS virus and its purposeful spread in Africa

    Goldman Sachs should be closed and its managers and etc should be given either the death penalty or locked away for life. Goldman Sachs emnployees should be threatened with mass killings of themselves and of their entire families since the employees of Goldman Sachs and its managers and CEO’S are the ones responsible for creating mass social misery, strife and poverty across the world. The have no ethics or ethos whatsoever and are completely amoral and criminal in their business operations. Goldman Sachs are Zionist criminals and the biggest mistake ever done unfortunately in our world has been the following: Hitler did not finish his job – unfortunately not all jews were exterminated. All of the worlds banks, money and media are controlled by the fucking Jews and fucking Israelis.
