All rights reserved you sure have a penchant for exaggeration. as far as i can tell, gold is at 646,60 - iow, a price range that is among the highest in 26 years. as an aside, the only legitimate reason for gold to rise is falling confidence in the monetary system. 'troubles in the Middle East' are not per se a fundamental factor that should influence the gold price. only if those troubles lead to a wider war, and as a consequence to monetary inflation, is there a good reason for gold to rise.

All rights reserved if/when she becomes president, many neo-cons will all of a sudden become neo-libs. it will be great fun watching the reaction of Republican supporters when their heroes suffer yet another loyalty spasm. the Trotskyists and Stalinists are still shock-and-awed that such dependable fellow leftist authoritarian luminaries as Horowitz could move to the far right in a single leap. well, no problem there. as in Dr.Frank'n'furter's song: "It's just a jump to the left And then a step to the right With your hands on your hips You bring your knees in tight Let's do the Time Warp again Let's do the Time Warp again" Date: Tue Jul 18 2006 09:52 trotsky (Bleuler, 8:28) ID#248269: Copyright © 2002 trotsky/Kitco Inc. All rights reserved counter-comment: the ONLY party in Iraq interested in a 'continued US presence' is the puppet regime ( since it wouldn't survive on its own ) . this is confirmed by every poll that has been taken in Iraq over the past 2 years. secondly, these days, it appears Shi'ite death squads ( both under the interior ministry and independent militia ) are just as prevalent as Sunni fighters of various stripes. the fact that they were and are outnumbered has never stopped the Sunnis before. they may be outnumbered in Iraq proper, but not on the Arabian peninsula as a whole. all that said, short term alliances of convenience, even with foreign 'infidel' invaders, are always possible, but usually not durable. as Hector Cyr would say, they're hiding such information in history books.
