The main difference is that they couldn't hide the damage in Dresden. The shock and awe was processed quickly and they rebuilt.
In the USA, the shock and awe has been replaced with bailouts, SNAP, HUD, Czars, ZIRP etc. So no one looks at the shell of the USA like they looked at the shell of Dresden.
Which is worse? Rebuilding ASAP is better. Hiding the shell of the USA is the playbook used by the Japanese. The Japanese Economic Model is fresh and there for anyone with eyes wide open. But just like the non-Nazi Germans and the DNC-like Jews in Germany before the cattle round up, their eyes were WIDE SHUT.
The USA would be better off had we been attacked in a way that ordinary Americans could see the damage. This GREAT country would rise to the occasion. Instead they are swallowing the bait HOOK, LINE & SINKER!

And..."we have seen in a number of countries recently, interest rates can soar quickly if investors lose confidence" Um. Yeah. Shorting treasuries is the trade of the century. A number of us have had the finger on the trigger so long it is numb and going gang green. With proper capital management waiting for the bottom may be dollar foolish. It feels like the floor is in and be thankful for fortuitous dips lasting hours if not minutes.
"I’ve said several times in the past that I respect Ben Bernanke as a man, not because he’s been right (he obviously hasn’t), but because he’s honest"
You must know far more than me. I proclaim to have the insight of an ant when it comes to six degrees of separation from Bennie & the Inkjets. If Ben Bernanke is an honest man then his life is in danger if he were to come clean with the American public. Sunny Shue was a noble man too.
And if you are right about Ben then I'm right about the future of the USA. WE ARE DOOMED.
Igor Panarin may be the guy to get into an interview if he is still alive. The US Authorities have overreached. The odious debt contracted by a private entity - the NY Fed - for a private entity - TBTF - in the name of the US Taxpayer is the very definition of odious. Crudely oversimplified here but you get the gist.
Am I wrong? This is why I want to know who Obamney......eerrrrr Romney is going to put into the Treasury Dept. And if an Act of Congress made the odious debt legal, does it make it any less odious if the US taxpayer was lied too?
Jim Grant? Any opinion? That is one guy I trust right now. David Rosenberg too.

If we had a consumption tax then the Cronies would have to compete sans assistance from back door *lowjobs to Congress. If I had a dollar for every vote from each member of Congress who voted to stack the chips against small business because of a stint with a hooker...
Who do they think they are fooling? It's soooooo bad in DC I beginning to wonder if the UN may be less corrupt than COngress.

OMG Ron. They will be crawling over each other to bank off the malfeasance of PUPPET44. They will jump off that ship so fast it will make Captain Francesco Schettino look like Robert Shaw's character Quint.
Once Obama is no longer in a position to "punish enemies and rewards friends" the friend list will become the enemy list faster than you can say JFK.

Who is John Galt? How about who is Linda Green? I'm not sure which is the biggest scam of my lifetime. Mortgage fraud or ZIRP.
And now, in order to re-elect Satan, the AGs in the USA are signing off on a settlement that is not yet settled to allow the Banksters to sweep a trillion dollar scam under the carpet for about $40 billion.
More than likely that $40 billion will be another ZIRP harbinger paid for by the US taxpayer. So the most important asset class in the world -US Housing - was raped and pillaged by the Banksters with the blessing of Congress and said financial institutions went broke when the ponzi came crashing down.
Instead of wiping out the shareholders the US taxpayer sent themselves down the river by not only making the culprits whole but also lavished them since then with zero percent loans and huge bonuses that will never be repaid to the Treasury. Oh. Don't get me wrong. They will be shown to have "repaid" it with more secretive ZIRP deals and they will be punished for the malfeasance of biblical proportions by a taxpayer funded "fine" for fractions of pennies on the dollar paid for by....YOU; The US taxpayer i.e more debt.
And we are focused on the "budget" while the mortgage "settlement" goes quietly into the gas chamber?

What kind of woman is attracted to a "man" like Savage? My guess. The kind of woman that wears the pants and holds the leash. What a phag.

Mr. America is sick and tired of this CHIT. And y'all should be ashamed for not talking about it more. We already know The Ann CoulterBurg is a total sell out. In the coming weeks we'll see who kisses Ann's Shoe.
