This happens far too regularly to be 'coincidence.'
- An early morning "raid" by bullion banks in the wee hours when the access market is thinly-traded (with complicity from government) using unbacked paper (naked shorts) to suppress an uncomfortable physical price. Look at the chart and tell me this is NOT a 'rigged' game on the COMEX (aka CRIMEX). Yeah, more "Chicago way" a la Corzine!
Expect NO help from our 'regulators' at the SEC or CFTC (hahahahahahahaha) since our insider traders, otherwise known as Congress, are in on the scam and happily in a 'relationship' with our Too Pig To Fail (TPTF) Banks.
Capone and Dillinger must be rotating in their graves at the sight of such open and blatant criminality.

Gun Collection........................
You may have heard on the news about a southern California man that was put under 72-hour psychiatric observation when it was found he owned 100 guns and allegedly had (by rough estimate) 1-million rounds of ammunition stored in his home. The house also featured a secret escape tunnel.
My favorite quote from the dimwit television reporter: "Wow! He has about a million machine gun bullets." The headline referred to it as a "massive weapons cache”.
By southern California standards someone even owning 100,000 rounds would be called "mentally unstable. Just imagine if he lived elsewhere:
In Arizona , he'd be called "an avid gun collector”.
In Arkansas , he'd be called "a novice gun collector".
In Utah , he'd be called "moderately well prepared", but they'd probably reserve judgment until they made sure that he had a corresponding quantity of stored food.
In Montana , he'd be called "The neighborhood 'Go-To' guy".
In Idaho , he'd be called "a likely gubernatorial candidate".
In Wyoming , he'd be called "an eligible bachelor".
And, in Texas , he'd be called “a deer hunting buddy”.

Is Iran The Key to Obama's Reelection?.....................Dan Friedman
Concerning Iran and its nuclear weapons program, I’ve contended for years that a) it’s (still) vulnerable to attack; b) Iran’s threatened reaction would be much less damaging than advertised; c) the U.S. military -- and only the U.S. military --could get the job done using unmanned stand-off weapons; d) the strongest incentive for Obama to move would be unambiguous signals from Israel that she would (and could) go it alone if necessary.
Now, in light of these statements recently made by Defense Secretary Panetta, I am adding e) a successful US-led operation would virtually guarantee Obama’s reelection.
