Tom Chatham is the author of The American Dream Lost - An Economic survival strategy for a new paradigm.
Every day we see new laws and regulations coming out of Washington that can have no other meaning than to strip us of our inherent freedoms. While many Americans still see the government as a noble creature that will fulfill their needs and wants, it is becoming obvious to a small minority that something very evil lurks just over the horizon and out of full view. To attempt to warn the majority is an attempt in futility. Many will refuse to believe the truth even as they are marched to their death. The propaganda organs are in full swing and that is all most will acknowledge as if a narcotic providing their next high and feeling of relief from the harsh realities of the world. The minority feel they must prepare as best as they can for the coming cataclysm they view as inevitable. They are prepared to resist the tyranny they feel approaching with everything they have. The words, our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor resonate to the very heart of what these patriots stand for. Without freedom, there is no life worth living that would provide a meaningful existence. These patriots are prepared to fight if necessary to protect what rightfully belongs to them.

It’s kind of a dangerous time for people in America
from WND:
A
Missouri state lawmaker says it’s a scary time in America, especially
if you’re not fully on board with Washington’s socialist-leaning agenda.
“It’s kind of a dangerous time for people in America who might wind up disagreeing with the government,” Missouri Rep. Paul Curtman said during a conference telephone call regarding organized opposition for the National Defense Authorization Act.
After serving in the Marines for 10 years, he said, he realizes that under the federal government’s definition of “potential terrorist,” he qualified by virtue of his status as a combat veteran and his conservative political views.
But it’s not just conservatives who are raising concerns about the legislation that includes provisions appearing to authorize the no-warrant detention of American citizens under certain conditions.

My Dear Extended Family,
Today two events took place, one which has the capacity to make the recent low price of gold in the $1630s the low of this reaction (disappointing housing statistics), and another to fuel the gold price into its true 2012 range of $1700 – $2111 by this summer (utilization of selective lock out of the Swift system to India and others).
For fuel into the true 2012 range of $1700 to $2111:
“If a country doesn’t prove it’s making the necessary reductions by the end of June, any institution in that nation that settles petroleum trades through Iran’s central bank will be cut off from the U.S. banking system.”
This is terribly ill advised and poorly timed. It smells like a threat of selective lockout via the Swift system.

Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen:
Before commencing my commentary, let me introduce to you our two latest entrants to our banking morgue:
1. Premier Bank of Wilmette Illinois
2. Covenant Bank and Trust, Rock Spring GA,
Gold closed yesterday at $1662.40 a rise of $20.10 on the day. Silver also had a good day rising by 93 cents to $32.25. Europe was in the red due to rising bond yields with respect to the Spanish bonds coupled with rising credit default spreads. The long term Greek bonds fell in price badly as its yield now exceeds 20%.

The
United States, European allies and even Israel generally agree on three
things about Iran’s nuclear program: Tehran does not have a bomb, has
not decided to build one, and is probably years away from having a
deliverable nuclear warhead.
Those conclusions, drawn from extensive interviews with current and former U.S. and European officials with access to intelligence on Iran, contrast starkly with the heated debate surrounding a possible Israeli strike on Tehran’s nuclear facilities.

In an exclusive report, Jerusalem-based DEBKAfile reports that both Israel and the United States are on the same page in regard to launching an attack on Iran.
“American and Israeli intelligence evaluations of the state of Iran’s program are in accord – contrary to the impression gained from Obama administration officials,” DEBKA-Net-Weekly reported on March 22. “Both are of one mind on the imperative to paralyze that program even by force if Iran refuses to give up its pursuit of a nuclear weapon.”
On Friday, it was reported that the United States, European allies and Israel agree that Iran does not have a nuclear weapons program. “Tehran does not have a bomb, has not decided to build one, and is probably years away from having a deliverable nuclear warhead,” the National Post reported. Despite this evidence, the Israeli government has decided to attack Iran.
According to DEBKAfile, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said in a radio interview on Thursday that if Israel is resolved to attack Iran, it will have to do so within three months. In February, it was reported that Israel would carry out an attack in June and would use Saudi Arabia as its base.

Bullish Concentration Index Triggers As Jim Proposes $1630 Could Be Reaction Low
Eric De Groot at Eric De Groot - 2 hours ago
Less visible but equally important events supporting Jim's thesis that
$1630 could be the reaction low: Bullish concentration of money flows in
the futures and options markets. Aggressive accumulation, a combination of
short covering and long buying, generated a double and triple peak in 2008
and 2011-2012, respectively (see chart 1). In other words, the peaks
represent repositioning of paper...

Central Banks: The Path Of Money Printing
Admin at Marc Faber Blog - 3 hours ago
I do not believe that the central banks around the world will ever, and I
repeat ever, reduce their balance sheets.
They have gone the path of money printing and once you choose that path,
you are in it and you have to print more money.

from Silver Vigilante:
Sprott
last year urged the world’s largest silver producers to limit silver
sales during downward corrections in favor of holding profits in the
said metal. Sprott suggested that the lack of sales could bulk up silver
reserves. This, he reasoned, could be a means for the silver producers
to hedge in the face of irrational dips brought on by nanosecond power
plays by the powers-that-be which depend upon artificially dependable
fiat currencies in order to secure their profits, which, for them,
equate control.
Sprott is making many connections in calling on silver producers to cease their fiat holding. What’s exciting is that tactics like these can tease the fulcrum of the monetary system, perhaps the most powerful form of control on the planet.
In his letter, Sprott challenged producers, stating that “Instead of selling all their silver for cash and depositing that cash in a levered bank, silver miners should seriously consider storing a portion of their reserves in physical silver outside of the banking system. Why take on all the risks of the bank when you can hold hard cash through the very metal that you mine? Given the current environment, we see much greater risk holding cash in a bank than we do in holding precious metals.”

“No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as
abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the
house. But different men often see the same subject in different lights;
and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those
gentlemen if, entertaining as I do opinions of a character very opposite
to theirs, I shall speak forth my sentiments freely and without
reserve. This is no time for ceremony. The question before the house is
one of awful moment to this country. For my own part, I consider it as
nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery; and in proportion to
the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It
is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at the truth, and fulfill
the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I
keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I
should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of
an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above
all earthly kings.”

The
Empire is most definitely striking back. Between the huge and secretive
data center being built in Utah to intercept and analyze the world’s
communications, Barack Obama’s newly signed executive order that allows
him “emergency” powers and the near-passage of SOPA, the powers-that-be
are making it clear they intend to try to control, more and more
effectively, what we call the Internet Reformation.Now here comes “Connect to Americas,” presented by the UN’s International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The summit, hosted in Panama, will gather together countries in the Caribbean to discuss technology.
It sounds like some sort of international company but actually it’s a huge but low-key UN bureaucracy – and it’s the latest danger to Internet freedom and maybe the gravest.
You know it’s got to be bad when an article on the AOL’s Huffington Post warns about it. AOL/Huffington from an editorial standpoint is not exactly known to be alarmist about what are laughingly referred to as “conspiracy theories.”

With respect, let us begin.
by Clif High, Half Past Human:
The recent brouhaha involving David Wilcock, Ben Fulford, Kerry Cassidy and unnamed others (Anonymous) has brought to the forefront of thinking, the ‘how’ of it all… as in how do people, seeming reasonable and (sometimes) rational, fall for such bullshit as the currently unfolding ‘lawsuit to bring down the NWO’ drama. First thought, of course, is to give the benefit of the doubt, that is, to assume that our cast of ‘players’ are not willing, but are rather unwitting, actors within the drama currently unfolding.
Then the ‘aha’ moment manifests, when realization dawns that it is all a con job, and the cast is not ‘players’, but rather, the ‘played’.
At this point there is no concern with the issue of why they fell/fall for these confidence tricks, nor is there even much concern given to the issue of ‘who’ is ‘playing’ our players. Rather the attention is directed toward the ‘how’ of it all.
While initially I thought to offer a breakdown of the ‘lawsuit to end the NWO’ as a confidence trick, showing point by point (using first Kerry’s examples, and then the complete filing papers) how this game is being played, but then, tiring of restating the obvious, a much more fitting approach delivered itself. Let’s make it a self teaching game.

Late
Friday afternoon, the time when they love to release damaging news in
the hope that it will get lost in the weekend spin cycle, a rehashed
disclosure came out about “Knows Nothing” Jon Corzine. A memo had been
located, which showed that Corzine had specifically directed that client
funds be used to cover an MF Global bounced check to JP Morgan Chase.
While this was a partial rehash, in light of recent findings, it adds
clarity to Corzine’s actions when MF hit the fan. An assistant treasurer
Edith O’Brien of the MF sent the email as part of a CYA effort, to
avoid being scapegoated by Corzine, for the theft.
She states that JC(Jon Corzine) directly ordered $200 million in “segregated” customer funds be used to pay the overdraft. Of course Corzine is saying that he had no idea client funds were used for this purpose. But one must doubt the veracity of this claim. Would a mid level employee take it upon herself to raid the customer’s accounts, to stave off MF’s collapse? A good question that needs to be answered before a grand jury. Perhaps an offer of immunity or a reduced sentence will help jar O’Brien’s memory.

I did a Google search for these three words: liquid Tide theft. I got a lot of hits.
The thieves could steal anything. Why are they stealing Tide? Because Tide functions as a black market currency.
To function as currency, a commodity needs the following:

2. Recognizable
3. Transportable

6. High value in relation to volume and weight
