it contains 10-20% discussion of anything relevant to gold Enjoyed The entire Gold-Eagle, Puplava, Prudent Bear, Sinclair, 321 Gold, Kitco, Daily Reckoning, GATA, Le Metropole Cafe CROWD - all blew this play....not one mention of the potential formation of a "Double Top"...no one pounding the table that the rally was too far, too fast AND too easy - that it absolutely was a purely overdone WAR/HEDGE and to sell/short it.

Saudis Warn of Fundamentalism - in America Saudis warn US over Iraq war Monday, 17 February, 2003, 22:23 GMT The BBC Saudi Arabia has warned the United States against a possible war against Iraq in an exclusive interview with the BBC. Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal has said that any unilateral military action by the US would appear as an "act of aggression". "Independent action in this, we don't believe is good for the United States," he told the BBC's world affairs editor John Simpson at a meeting of the Arab League foreign ministers in Cairo. "It would encourage people to think... that what they're doing is a war of aggression rather than a war for the implementation of the United Nations resolutions." But if the attack came through the United Nations Security Council, it would not be considered an aggression, he said. "So we are ardently... urging the United States to continue to work with the United Nations... and not to create an act of individual aggression, of individually taking charge of the duties of the Security Council." Regime change Regime change would lead to the destruction of Iraq, and would threaten to destabilise the entire Middle East region, Prince Saud said. "If change of regime comes with the destruction of Iraq, then you are solving one problem and creating five more problems. "That is the consideration that we have to make, because we are living in the region. We will suffer the consequences of any military action." Regime change can only be a possibility if it is done "indigenously", he said. "There has never been in the history of the world a country in which a regime change happened at the bayonets of guns that has led to stability." The worry is rising fundamentalism in America and the West - not in the Middle East, he said. "Our worry is the new emerging fundamentalism in the United States and in the West. Fundamentalism in our region is on the wane. There, it's in the ascendancy. That's the threat." news.bbc.co.uk
