Absolutely Hillarious. Loved it.

It’s all just pretext.
Just as the US has done in Syria, using ISIS as a pretext to involve itself directly and militarily in the Syrian conflict without ever actually fighting ISIS, Saudi Arabia is seeking to create a plausible cover story to do the same.[1]
ISIS toads burned a captured pilot alive. And at least three others were hung by chains and burned alive. ISIS beheadings are lovingly photographed and distributed on the web.
If that isn’t satanic, what is? Yet, we only pretend to fight them and we still will not cut off their funding by destroying the oil tankers in Syria and Iraq. We still smile smugly as the Saudis and Qataris provide ISIS and the al Qaida forces with cash. What have we become? The acts I’ve described are unspeakably cruel but the ultimate dishonor is our refusal to change our policy and, finally, speak the anathema long since overdue. We have become numb to the reality of evil.
It’s all just been a lie. It marks U.S. leaders as the most dishonorable men and women on the planet after ISIS itself. One cannot be allied with ISIS and be other than indecent and unclean. To state it delicately, there’s no clean end of this that you can pick up.
This is justified because we’re really after Pres. Assad. Why exactly Bashar al-Assad is a serious threat to the security of the United States is something that has yet to be laid out by Obama. But the servile American press cry crocodile tears over Assad’s barrel bombs as though it were some new height of depravity. Which it isn’t. And when hundreds of thousands of Syrians are killed in battles that would never have been fought had not the U.S. undertaken to sponsor a war against Assad, well, that’s Assad’s fault because he chose to fight the God-forsaken Western “coalition” instead of meekly roll over because Obama has a wish to dabble in The Great Game. Punahou boy makes good.
On top of which, the disgrace of our doing this doesn’t seem to bother the Republicans. Nothing bothers those time servers, back scratchers, and Chamber of Commerce lap dogs. But wait! The likelihood of a Trump presidency fills them with horror so they’re not without emotion.
There’s that, I suppose.

“When this happens then money will flow into Gold and the PM miners. Where else to invest…”
I HAVE to think what you say is true. Where the heck else could anyone put their money? The bank? Bitcoin? Seems the options are limited once the SM finally rolls over. No more bonds or junk bonds, hard to make a case for emerging markets.
Don’t know if you saw the horrifying jobless claims or the Chicago PMI (worst since 2009) – unless the Fed is intentionally trying to destroy the economy, which I wouldn’t doubt, there’ll be no more rate increases.
Not a bad close for us today, all things considered.
Happy New Year everyone!
NaturalNews: Meet the three vaccine fraudsters who should probably be in jail
It’s interesting that the EPA put 158 people in jail last year for “environmental crimes,” but the vaccine fraudsters committing “crimes against humanity” never seem to go to jail.
Today, we bring you profiles of three vaccine fraudsters, hucksters and con men who should probably be in prison… but aren’t. All of them have indirect ties to the CDC and its vaccine propaganda:
FWIW: I hope “nothing”!!

December 30, 2015
While we were all busy celebrating the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ and spending time with our families during the Christmas holidays House Democrats were focused on the most important issue this country faces- the well-being of MUSLIMS!
That’s right folks. Sharia law is alive and kicking in America thanks to our Muslim-in-Chief and his liberal minions.
Democrat Congressmen quietly sponsored House Resolution 569 on December 17.
Among the people that sponsored the resolution are Muslim Congressmen Keith Ellison and Andre Carson, as well as Eleanor Holmes Norton, Loretta Sanchez, Charles Rangel, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Joe Kennedy, Al Green, Judy Chu, Debbie Dingell, Niki Tsongas, John Conyers, José Serrano, Hank Johnson, and many others, House Resolution 569 condemns “violence, bigotry, and hateful rhetoric towards Muslims in the United States.” The Resolution has been referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary, According to Front Page Magazine.

Dow Crash = Primary Bear Market
When this happens then money will flow into Gold and the PM miners. Where else to invest… Stock Market, Bonds, Real Estate will all be in the crapper. We are currently in the end of Phase 1 and soon to enter Phase 2.
Phase1) A panic crash followed by major rebound. Talk is still buy the dips and this was just a corrective dip in the Bull market.
Phase2) The Dow rebounded BUT, only made a secondary high. A lower high. It then resumes the downtrend. It threatens the panic lows and then breaks thru them. Talk changes to whether we are in for a 20% or maybe a 30% Bear market. Market bottoms and begins a flat line to minor up slope.
Phase3) Downtrend resumes with lower lows and people wonder where this will all end. Hedge funds close in on disaster, Pension funds need rescue. 401/Ira accounts are slaughtered. Wall Street layoffs hit affluent suburban real estate. Nobody is spending much money…Car sales, Restaurants, all consumer spending takes a major hit. PM’s are a refuge and people begin to figure this out.
Phase4) is optional . A gruesome resumption of Phase 3.

Last Chance
Years ago, just before leaving California and entering Nevada, there was a gas station named Last Chance….and they displayed a big sign that read Last Chance to Buy Gas for $1.09…..and they did lots of business. But then you crossed the State line and the first gas station advertised….Gas $.89.
Makes me wonder what lies ahead in the PM’s. Today is the last chance to buy for this price in 2015. Time to grab a bargain???… or see what lies ahead in 2016??
Happy New Year everyone!!…..from Silverngold

Morning Oasis and Happy New Year!
Jobless claims were up sharply – up 20K on the week. One of them was my wife who was laid off a couple of weeks ago and filed last week.
Not really giving pm’s much of a boost or hitting the USD as it should but it’s going to be a light day, so the boyz can push things around easily.
Might be reasonable to expect the jobs picture to weaken into the New Year but that’s JMHO.
High of 11, low of -11 degrees here in the frozen northwest tundra today.
Happy New Year everyone!
