U.S. Facing 'Catastrophic Attack'
NewsMax.com
Thursday, Feb. 1, 2001
National security experts Congress commissioned to examine America's vulnerabilities in a changing, hostile world warn of a crippling assault upon its homeland within 25 years.
According to the Associated Press, the United States Commission on National Security/21st Century, chaired by former Sens. Warren Rudman, R-N.H., and Gary Hart, D-Colo., reported Wednesday that:

"Weapons proliferation [and] the persistence of international terrorism will end the relative invulnerability of the U.S. homeland to catastrophic attack.

"A direct attack against American citizens on American soil is likely over the next quarter century."

I'm just a simple guy, so all I can understand/follow is the supply/demand stuff. All the other factors, such as current account deficit, are interesting but they have not been enough to move gold for a sustained period, so I just keep going back to the fundamentals. Gold has averaged $279 for the last two years, which seems about fair value to me, so we have about a $10 upside potential.
