Joseph comments on a BBC article about the expulsion of USAID from Bolivia by that country's president, and a growing cooperation between Germany and South Africa (by way of an example from recent history), and about the following article at GATA linking the gold question to Operation Golden Lily: http://www.gata.org/node/12524 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-22371275 http://www.southafrica.info/news/international/germany-300413.htm#.UYQMZ8pMfAF … [Read more...]
RUSSIA’S NEW CENTRAL BANK HEAD: RUSSIA WILL CONTINUE “DIVERSIFYING ITS PORTFOLIO”
Russia's central bank has a new head, and he's telegraphing some definite messages: UPDATE 3-Russia c.bank to keep buying gold - Ulyukayev In previous blogs and video blogs, I have suggested the idea that the moves afoot to repatriate gold, particularly in Germany's case, would not be occurring if there was not a reassessment taking place quietly and secretly within the councils of government. That reassessment, I have argued, includes an understanding of the Bearer Bond Scandal as being an indicator of a vast amount of fraud in the financial system of the West, fraud that was used to … [Read more...]

GOLD AND THE FUTURE OF THE DOLLAR
This is a very interesting paper from the "Official Monetary and Financial Institutions forum", if you have the time to read it, because it provides a very different perspective on what may be going on: Gold, the renminbi and the multi-currency reserve system I want to direct your attention, however, to some of the conclusions it reaches on page 32, which may be summarized as follows: "Gold will play a greater role in the future than today – but not a dominant one." With this, I tend to agree, but for very different reasons than given in the report, namely, that as the readers of … [Read more...]

FIRST VENEZUELA, THEN GERMANY, THEN ECUADOR, NOW BRAZIL…
Sometimes you just have to sit back and laugh at the banksters. As I sit here today blogging for the next two weeks, enjoying a (GMO) turkey sandwich on fresh (GMO) bread made with wholesome (GMO) grains, slathered with mayonnaise made from (GMO) eggs from (GMO) chickens and topped with cheese from (GMO) cows' milk, I have to laugh. Most regular readers here will know I've been covering the story of Germany wanting to audit its gold and, in some case, to repatriate all or a substantial portion of it. The move, however, began with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. No surprise there, or so … [Read more...]
THE $43,000,000,000,000 LAWSUIT CLAIMS ITS FIRST VICTIMS…?
Last week in my News and Views from the Nefarium I talked briefly about the $43 trillion dollar lawsuit filed in New York City against a multitude of bankstering and government officials. On my Facebook Wall, Mr. J.T. followed that up with the observation that this appeared to be the same thing that David Wilcock and Benjamin Fulford were talking about. Well, in one sense yes, and in another, no. In the sense that they talked about this lawsuit, yes, but in the sense of constructing a grand, and almost messianic, scenario, no. In fact, in my opinion, the connections and scenarios that might … [Read more...]
THE LIST HAS GROWN: SWITZERLAND, THE NETHERLANDS, AND ECUADOR JOIN GERMANY IN CALLS FOR AUDITS OF THEIR GOLD
The calls for full audits, and in some cases, repatriation, of foreign gold reserves being held by the New York Federal Reserve are growing, as now Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Ecuador have joined Germany in those calls and in Ecuador's case, repatriation, of its gold: German Calls for Gold Repatriation Intensify As Fed Refuses to Allow Inspection Obviously, the Fed's refusal to comply "in the interest of security" is a complete fabrication and obfuscation, what what is Germany going to do? Rush out and tell the world the processes by which the Fed "operates"? Doubtful. As the … [Read more...]
SECRET LETTER BETWEEN THEN GERMAN CHANCELLOR HELMUT SCHMIDT AND THE FEDERAL RESERVE: CONTROL THE GOLD MARKET
Ok...I admit it: I'm something of a "gold bug" in that I've been following all these weird stories on this website about the discrepancies in the stated amount of the world's gold (thank you, Lord Blackheath), the even weirder stories about all those fake gold-backed bearer bonds and currency counterfeiting, and more recently, the moves of various nations to repatriate their gold reserves from the vaults of the Federal Reserve to their own countries. Beginning with Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, the movement quickly spread to India, and, of course, to Germany, which supposedly has over three … [Read more...]
