Charles Goyette, June 30, 2014


Antiwar and anti-Fed demonstrations in Germany have spread to a hundred cities and now to two more countries . NATO and its expansionism play a material role in the protest movement, but why should Germans and other Europeans be protesting the U.S. Federal Reserve? Charles Goyette and Ron Paul talk about the protests in Germany and about an alarming new twist in the grassroots movement seeking the return of German gold purportedly held by the Fed.

In 2013, Germany Asked for Its Stored Gold. HaHaHaHaHa.

In January 2013, the German central bank asked for half of its gold back. It was being stored by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on behalf of the German government.

The Federal Reserve said: “Sure. In seven years, maybe.”

This week, the German government said: “We were only kidding. We don’t want our gold. We trust the American government.”

You can’t get blood out of a turnip.

It does no good to lock the gate after the horse has run away.

So, the German government is putting lipstick on its pig. It really did say that there is no problem, that it trusts the United States. The German government expects the voters to accept this.

“The Americans are taking good care of our gold,” Norbert Barthle, the budget spokesman for Merkel’s Christian Democratic bloc in parliament, said in an interview. “Objectively, there’s absolutely no reason for mistrust.”

What this means is that Germany isn’t going to get its gold . . . ever.

The day Germany turned over its gold to the New York Federal Reserve Bank, it surrendered ownership . . . forever.

There has never been a full audit of the gold held by the Federal Reserve or at Fort Knox. “Trust us.”

If the voters in Germany go along with this, they will announce for all the world to hear: “We are dumber than dirt.”

The German government needed to save face. So, now that has been stiffed by the Federal Reserve, it comes up with an explanation. “No problem!.”

The Federal Reserve has remained silent.

Our only hope is to get a total economic meltdown, anything that takes us closer to that is positive.

Our only hope is to get a total economic meltdown, anything that takes us closer to that is positive.

As an Economics major and someone who cares about our peoples and countries, it feels wrong to agree with this.

But I know why you're saying it, and I agree with you completely.

I have not listened to Mr Pauls interview yet. This German gold thing has been going on for awhile, I speculated on it two months ago but still do not really know what it means. I also did not know about the protests so I am interested in what is going on.

Germany, playing the waiting game or lost it's mind?

Here's some headlines from the German news magazine Der Spiegel they are kind of all over the place.
Some say Germany is playing the waiting game and dragging it's feet til it can break free and stand on there own. Others argue the schizophrenic behavior is who they have become. Any opinions?

One thing I will say is Germany asked for some of it's gold back from the U.S. Federal Reserve and got someone else gold instead. Why are they asking for there gold now?
