Concerns about US-Israel Relations Mount
I received this communication from Sharad Karkhanis:
Subject: Very disturbing information - sent to me by a friend.
I have just received this: from my friend in Israel, who moves in high circles in Israel. Tonight Clive and I heard very disturbing information – we heard it from a consultant to the United States who meets once a month with the President in the White house. He is in the know. This is what actually has happened with the relationship with Israel and the USA and it is not pretty:
1. Israel during the Bush and Clinton Administrations – had landing rights in Turkey , and in the USA bases in the middle east and more recently under George Bush, in Iraq . This was in case they were invaded by Iran , or Saudi or any other Arab country. Obama has withdrawn those landing rights. Israel now has nowhere to refuel in the middle east.
2. Netanyahu was instructed to come to the white house for a meeting. He was brought in through a servants entrance – the only head of state ever in US history to be given that disgraceful treatment. He was not offered even a cup of tea – but was lectured to by Obama who told him that he is not permitted to attack Iran and that he has to withdraw all forces from the West bank and may not build any more settlements (neighborhoods) in East Jerusalem.
3. Israel found out that there were four terrorists meeting in Dubai . As they have done for the past 62 years, they informed the US of that and said that these terrorists had to be dealt with. Obama said under no circumstances. Israel decided to go ahead. They killed the one terrorist who showed up. However the CIA was sent there to film the entire event by Obama – and then a concerted PR campaign was waged by the White house to discredit Israel and what they did – this kind of action has taken place with US support for the past 62 years since we have common enemies.
4. Obama has refused to oppose Syria ’s re arming of Hezbollah and Hamas – Israel now sits in imminent danger from the amounts of missiles that can be sent into her territory.
5. Israel will never tell the US again of its plans – since they cannot trust us.
6. Israel intends to attack Iran –there are over 30 installations of which 4 have underground bunkers that contain nuclear weapons. Israel cannot wait any longer. The US is no longer supporting Israel ’s
self defense.
7. This is the same man that gave the White House a full file on the 9.11 attack – his warnings and proof were laughed at.
8. He believes that the next attacks in the USA will be mass transportation – subways and malls – especially the largest malls where the most people can be killed - and that Vegas and wherever there are
conventions of employees will be a huge target. We are not prepared and are naïve in our lack thereof.
9. Once Israel attacks Iran , every Jew and Jewish institution will be at risk – temples, religious schools etc. We must be prepared.
10. This kept a room of 200 people spellbound. It is not fiction. It is fact. What can be done? It is essential that everyone who doesn’t know yet, now understands that the protection and survival of Israel is not on Obama’s list – and he is now taking ACTUAL steps to move all protections away – no more landing rights, negotiating with Iran and Syria and he is no friend of the Jewish people and Israel. We must be sure that we elect politicians who protect Israel as well as the USA – our interests are intertwined. Please forward to everyone you know.

Call Me a Racist? I'll Call You a Serial Killer
Barack H. Obama began his presidential administration with a massive subsidy to the welfare mothers at Goldman Sachs. He then followed it up with a subsidy to corrupt, organized crime linked contractors and other perpetrators of fraud, which he called a "stimulus". Then, he pushed through an incompetent and destructive health care law that needs to become the first major Washington boondoggle to be repealed. Throughout it all, his supporters have smeared anyone who disagrees with his massacre of the US economy as being a "racist."
The truth of the matter is that there was a statistically significant increase in federal government spending as a percentage of gross domestic product in 2009 as compared to 2008. The spending was mostly attributable to corrupt subsidies to Wall Street and contractors via the stimulus. The spending will be outmatched in coming years as the health care law goes into effect. Anyone not out to murder the American economy is opposed to the policies of President Barack H. Obama.
If opposition to Obama means racism, then an equally valid deduction is that Obama's supporters are serial killers of the economy. They are Jeffrey Dahmers, Ted Bundys and David Berkowitzes.

Ron Holland on the Coming Currency Crisis and Economic Viagra
Ron Holland has an excellent blog on the Lew Rockwell site about the coming currency crisis. Holland makes four excellent points:
1. The Greek crisis may lead to a shrinking of the Euro zone as more socialist nations like Greece pull out in order to have the flexibility to inflate further.
2. Eurocrats would like increasing centralization of Europe, just as Republicrats here in the US favor increases in Washington's power. But, Ron rightly notes, Europe "would be far better off as a confederation of sovereign states that allows competition among individual national currencies." The same is true here in the U.S. The U.S. would be better off if the states were sovereign and were to spin off from Washington, which ought to become a loose coordinative hub like Brussels is today.
3. There will be continuing periods of dollar strength as the mania of "dollar safety" continues to motivate investors. Eventually, though, massive increases in the monetary base and China's and Japan's ending of their subsidization of a devaluing dollar will cause currency depreciation here.
4. Holland concludes: "Eventually the sovereign debt crisis will also come to the U.K. and then to the U.S., with disastrous results. The tragedy in Greece today is just a glimpse of what will happen to the sovereign debt of the United States. It will come to America, and it will come on its own schedule, so be prepared."
That means be ready to purchase gold when the price of gold falls. I have about 5% of my total assets in gold right now and I'm planning to increase it over time, buying in the dips. Other commodities such as agriculture (DBA) and general commodities (DBC) as well as silver (SLV) and other metals should be included in a balanced portfolio. Gold stocks (for instance, Eldorado, EGO or GDF) and leveraged gold ETFs (e.g., DGP) are higher risk/higher return ways of investing in gold. Similar ETFs exist for silver and other commodities.
I am currently 68% in cash and about 10% in commodities, including silver and agriculture as well as gold, and about 6% in two foreign currencies, the Canadian dollar and the Australian dollar. The rest is in a few stocks, including a Singapore ETF (EWS).
My worst positions are the Australian and Canadian currencies which have plummeted, apparently because of the Euro crisis (I don't understand why, but I also don't understand why the dollar is rising). A buying opportunity in the making?
Do not buy and hold. The mammoth increase in monetary reserves two years ago has motivated the past year's run-up in the stock market, and it may be that this injection is running out of steam. It is possible that the massive increase in potential liquidity (tripling of the monetary base) will continue to boost the stock market for some time, but ultimately the viagra will wear off. Then, Bernanke, Obama and their supervisors at 85 Broad Street will need to decide whether to inject nine times the monetary base to try to "get the stock market up" another 50%. If they do, hyper-inflation will be a certainty. If not, then expect some major disappoints in the American stock market.
Bernanke's use of monetary reserves somehow reminds me of viagra. The older the rally gets, the more viagra is needed.
