That was sure a long answer. Thank you for taking the time. I will give your points some thought, especially those about the price controls on gold taking away windfall profits from terrorist organizations. I hadn't thought of that unintentional positive benefit to terrorists who need money and use gold as money. This is a new result of any significant gold rally. Since you use gold as money and have always said it was the same as money to you, I can see why you thought of that unpleasant result to any gold rally we've all been waiting for years to see.
On a related matter, I read this morning's thread contributions by someone named Jim Black and another one by someone name Slider on Black. Both of those gentlemen seem to catch the glimpse of the larger, grim picture which you also see, and I'm beginning to see more of. I recall you stated that women and children were going to have to die as the result of any serious campaign to root out these terrorist organizations which seem to have pretty deep roots of many, many years of their wierd teachings about the value of dying. Reminds me of the death wishes of so many Germans in World War II. This was a problem in helping Germany rebuild after that war as well, so this is not a new idea, this glorifying death.
While I am older and cannot voluteer for military duty, my wife and I will do our best to discuss with clarity the things we have learned from you and those two gentlemen today. We old folks say Talk Is Cheap. Perhaps this time, talk will turn to cleansing action. We believe those bombing victims and their families believe their lives were very valuable and don't want just cheap talk, at least not this time. Action wasn't cheap in World War II either!
If you have any ideas as to what older folks like Janelle and I can do to help win this fight from down here in Georgia to help out, please share!
