New conspiracy theory.*

The Iranian government was advised that depositing 1000 tons of gold at its various nuclear sites, would keep them safe from atomic attack. The doomsday ploy.

Should their vast stash of gold be vaporized or rendered unusable the resulting rise in the pog would destroy other world currencies.

Until this posting, few, if any in the "West" were aware of this gambit. Further details might be found on Drecka.

"Iran Hoarding Gold
Kenneth R. Timmerman
Wednesday, June 7, 2006

WASHINGTON -- Iranians are going for the gold - at least until someone else cuts them off.

To forestall an effort by the West to seize Iranian assets in Europe, the Iranian leadership decided last fall to begin a massive, secret repatriation of its international currency reserves, according to Central Bank of Iran documents.

The documents were obtained by an Iranian opposition group and shared with Newsmax.

The documents detail eight shipments in chartered jumbo jets from Zurich's Kloten airport. The shipments, from October through late November, brought 250 tons of gold bullion from the vaults of Swiss banks to Tehran.

The gold was purchased by Bank Markazi (the Central Bank of Iran) from Credit Suisse in Zurich, the documents showed."

*new, means, I just made this up out of whole cloth. Some might claim my cloth has hole in it.
