Obama Had This Marine Arrested For The Most Outrageous Reason

I’m not sure what’s new there. CIA supplying ISIS in 2012 and 2013. Turkey buying loads of ISIS oil … some others as well. Turkey supplying ISIS with weapons.

I didn’t see anything proving that the US is still supplying ISIS. I see assertions, that’s all. I doubt and hope that we are not doing that. Could be wrong.

What grabbed you about the article?

Were does ISIS gets it’s guns, money and other supplies ??

Must read;

Logistics 101: Where Does ISIS Get Its Guns?

“Will the Ziocons try to destroy the world or will Willie be right?”

I guess that one’s a coin toss. I give it 7/5 they don’t destroy the world.

egon for 1000 alex!

Can’t really disagree with you. I guess he keeps the dream alive.

Although he claims to have been right for the last 15 years he’s been wrong forever.

Nice stories though….

If you really know…and by now you should know: Willie is a headline seeking Bullshit Artist! Yea, China took over the Fed. Yea, All the Central Banks have Tungsten filled gold bars. Why in the world would you even listen to him???

Black Friday Total Sales Crash 10% (Despite Rise In Online Spend)

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/29/2015 – 17:00

We can hear the mainstream media now – “Great News Everyone!! The American consumer is back” – online sales on Black Friday rose 10% to $1.7 billion which ComScore says shows “strong spending.” The only problem is – which we suspect will be oddly missing from the mainstream narrative, as ShopperTrak reports total sales on Black Friday crashed 10% to $10.4 billion. While blame has been placed on early opening on Thanksgiving, that is false too since spending on that day also plunged 10%. So, the sales news is unequivocally bad – which is hardly surprising given the collapse in consumer confidence.

Just speculating but I think Willie is assuming the US will refuse (as the largest voting power) the inclusion of the Yuan into the SDR.

Nothing the US Gov’t does at this point would surprise me including starting another war.

The Gold price will find its true value and price over $10,000 per ounce. The Silver price will find its true value and price over $400 per ounce. In reaching these levels, the ratio will return to the 25-1 range. Several steps have been laid out by the Hat Trick Letter toward the return of proper price to precious metals. The major upcoming events will be exciting to watch unfold, one after the other, in an inevitable sequence away from fascism and concentrated uni-polar power, with a strong movement toward freedom and equitable systems with distributed power. The steps will each involve a quantum jump in the Gold & Silver prices. The process will take a few years, but might be breath-taking in speed once the process is begun. The steps involve:

• the critical mass of rejected USTBills in trade settlement, citing its corrupt roots and illicit monetary policy as foundation
• the return to the Gold Trade Standard and introduction of Gold Trade Notes as letters of credit, in replacement for a fair tangible payment system (no more IOU coupons)
• the recapitalization of the global banking system with Gold as primary reserve asset, so as to relieve the grotesque stagnation, insolvency, and dysfunction
• the seeking of equilibrium in Supply vs Demand in the new fair uninhibited market, with exclusive control removed from London and New York, and placed elsewhere like in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Dubai, and Singapore.
• the seeding of BRICS gold & silver backed currencies from participating nations within the Alliance (likely several with slight variation in features)
• the re-opening of the gold mine industry with some blue sky, and relief from the Evergreen element at Barrick
• the remedy toward owners of over 40,000 tons of rehypothecated and stolen gold in bullion banks across the world (primarily in Switzerland.

One observation I have made is that Log charts yield a totally different picture as far as price goes than Linear charts. Although I generally follow the Linear charts, the Log chart picture is also compelling. I’ve heard many times that time is more important than price, and of course time is the same whether the charts are Log or Linear. So according to my interpretation of time, it is up tomorrow and from there we head higher. Not straight up but consistently higher highs and higher lows at least to (IMO) $2300 Gold before any kind of significant correction/consolidation…..  Best wishes to you all. This has been a rough 4 years……. Silverngold

Triggers in USDollar Collapse

snip
The triggers for profound unspeakable sudden crisis are lead by A) a continued decline in the crude oil price, B) bank failures from expired oil contract hedges, and C) the default of between $6 and $11 trillion in Emerging Market debt. One or more of these events is likely to occur in the next few months, probably all three. All three are extensions of the death of the USDollar, which is manifested in its rise. Like a balloon it will pop. The system will not be able to withstand the shock. Systemic breakdown will give way to failure of the entire monetary system upon which the USDollar rests. The Gold Standard will be urged on, first in trade, then in banking, finally in currency. The USDollar will be swept aside, its rubble put in the dustbin of history, the memories likened to Rome during the Nero period. When the next crisis hits, it will be five times worse than the Lehman event within the United States in 2008. When the next crisis hits, it will be five times worse than the Asian Meltdown internationally in 1998.

The movement has gone international to replace the USDollar, to install a fair trade payment system, to revert to a sound bank reserves system, to assure an honest currency system. Unfortunately, the dismissal of the King Dollar Reign of Terror cannot be done without surrender by Wall Street banks and the cabal syndicate that runs them, using the central bank franchise system as monetary shackles. Any nation attempting to exit the USDollar-based system is branded an enemy, subjected to propaganda, slapped with sanctions, and attacked militarily while isolated economically. Many are the non-USD platforms, mechanisms, and channels, far more than two years ago. The days of the USD as global currency reserve are numbered, limited, and few. Expect the RMB to be installed as caretaker vehicle on an interim basis. It will serve well until the Gold Standard arrives in whatever form is decided.

Silver is a key in understanding any Int. bottom process. And you are right, imho, neither Paas or Slw have gone down near far enough for a bottom here. Both have way more to go. At the end of the trend, either up or down, the Silver stocks will break from a trot to a fast gallop.

Gold approaching first benchmark date first week of Dec. This date is important as it’s a turning point. It can turn up, down or begin a sideways move.

The next benchmark date is end of march. The final low in gold (or end of correction) could happen at that time. We are right at trendline support here.

Silverngold – interesting your chart shows the same for silver. Silver’s benchmark date is 1 week before gold (actually this week). So what you should could play out as a turn up. But the problem is that gold and silver havent dropped far enough. I need to see sub $1000 gold. So I am thinking we could get a bounce here but then a final low in April.

You are NOT alone. You are in the bosom of the NSA. 🙂

PS That is not like Mom’s bosom.

1 Journalist Dead, 3 More Arrested After Exposing Turkey Arming Syrian Extremists

Submitted by Claire Bernish via TheAntiMedia.org,

Just over a week after Cumhuriyet Editor-in-Chief, Can Dündar, represented the Turkish daily news outlet in receiving a press freedom award, he and another top editor were arrested and jailed on charges of espionage. In question was a controversial article exposing arms shipments from Turkish intelligence to Syrian extremist rebels.

“We have been arrested,” tweeted Dündar on Thursday. “Don’t worry, these are medals of honor for us.”

He explained further: “We are accused of ‘spying.’ The president said ‘treason.’ We are not traitors, spy [sic], or heroes; we are journalists. What we have done here is an act of journalism,” said Dündar before testifying on Thursday. “Of course, this prosecution will help enlighten how these incidents took place, rather than how we covered this story.”

Now a third Turkish journalist has been arrested, according to local reports. Ertu?rul Özkök, a reporter for Turkish daily Hüriyet, has been arrested for a slanderous criticism of who is presumed to be Erdo?an — even though the president wasn’t explicitly named anywhere in Özkök’s article. As if more evidence of Turkey’s quashing free press and free speech were needed , Özkök potentially faces five years and four months in prison for expressing this opinion.

Dündar and Ankara correspondent, Erdem Gül, if found guilty on charges of spying, as well as aiding a terrorist organization, could spend the rest of their lives in a Turkish prison — for doing their job. There is a painfully ironic undercurrent in the charges considering the subject of the article is the Erdo?an administration’s complicity in arming Syrian extremists (read: terrorists).

Erdo?an himself sued Dündar and accused Cumhuriyet of releasing false information and spying when the story first exploded, stating at the time the journalist responsible would “pay a heavy price,” as the Wall Street Journal reported.

Despite Cunhuriyet’s recent honor from Reporters Sans Frontières (RSF, or Reporters Without Borders), under the paranoid, watchful eye of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an, journalists — and dissenters — have faced sweeping general censorship. Dündar and Gül might be the most prominent recent examples of Erdo?an’s attempt to keep “state secrets” concealed from public scrutiny, but they’re not the first journalists to poke this particular sore spot.

PS

Perhaps Voltaire said it best:

“To determine the true rulers of any society, all you must do is ask yourself this question: Who is it that I am not permitted to criticize?”

Vote! Vote!

For awhile there I thought I was the lone Oasis survivor!! LOL!!! I added my silver log chart to my previous post. Says about the same.

Good to know I’m not alone (smile)!!
