Faber may have gone off the the deep end, but the idea of keeping at least a little gold outside the US is probably a good one.

I'm a long way from Canada, and I don't think Mexico is an option.

But if I get chance, having something in Canada might be a really good idea.

Tommaso i am going to get to the bottom of this.

It must be validated as true or exposed as a scandalous use of Faber's name.
i used to subscribe to The Strafor report until i realized there were some Drudge Report equivalent writers with them.

This paper they refer to, i wonder if it came via The Strafor Report.
i don't believe RJA nor TJ are the source, but something stinks about this.
Faber, in 4 years of getting his Newsletter has never written anything pro or con about jews.
Also he was FEIRCELY opposed to BushII both on economics and foreign policy.
His last true vacation was for two weeks in SYRIA (about 6 months ago)
TJ could be pissed at Faber because he is NOT remotely a China enthusiast and is BEARISH on China, and has written(and i could dig up the quote), that the only thing China has learned from the U.S. is to give out BS GDP numbers, just as the U.S. does. Max

you can stop worrying, because faber said precisely that, word for word, via regular mail.

so you can feel safe to do precisely the opposite, and advise people you care about to move their gold into the usa, and re-elect obama.

actually i would imagine faber is not specifically against obama, in that it hardly matters who is or claims to be in charge of the social energy that is in the process of rolling across the economic-scape.

the first wave of the tsunami took out perhaps a quarter of the global village, and i would figure there would be secondary consequences else history stopped.

and by your reaction, i am seeing what must have been the social energy of denial that periodically worked amongst the minorities of all descriptions (jews, chinese, jewish communists, ethnic chinese scientists, etc etc, catholics, etc etc) everywhere, from old europe to new america, and from every-so-often russia to 1960s china, believing that vast social energy, once unleashed by trigger event of however long a fuse, would remain benign and under control.

wild stuff going on here. of course who will be chosen for the mob blood letting, is the ultimate question. regardless of best guessimates being from faber or anyone else for that matter. LOL. hilarious. we're having a contest as to who will be hung by the world wide mob. now THAT, is something new, when so little is nothing new.

i wrote faber. wonder if he will reply.

__________________________________________________________

it appears marc's call to leave or take arms or whatever it was, is spreading around the web.

found on the web.

"Regarding faber's call for the Jews to leave the USA and save themselves, aside from the undeniable possibility that the government's men will do everything they can to find scapegoats before the government eventually falls, and or whether or not it will be jews this time, or some other group, george bush having proved that demonizing is an equal opporunity finder in the USA, new york city has 8 million jews all by itself, let alone the remainder spread out across the country.

if they all were to heed faber's advice, where would 8-15 million people go, in one fell swoop?? regardless. he is mistaken if he thinks a few of his friends will find themselves hidden in the sea of faces called asia. very mistaken. and secondly, shadows his advice as coming from one who is a very willing ex-patriot with a right of return to switzerland, should his wanderlust ever come to an end, but shows no realism for those who truely know what it means and can mean to be of the hunted, the unwilliing country-less, or the innocent focus of an arbitrarily unleashed mob rage.... be that the cultural revolution or the night of broken glass in germany etc.


one could, of course, when looking for demons in this debacle, start going down an arbitrary list, say, beginning with Enron and Pets.com including their ceo's, juniors, and the beatitude of big name analysts who promoted them, to the present day, and find, few Jews. Which begs the question, though he may be well meant, and has, as he says, dear jewish friends, why not warn his non jewish friends given the bountiful assignats of blame that might be assigned to the Gentile persuasion. What is mr. faber thinking, in writing what he wrote? He doesn't explicate it to any degree, while setting up his warning. An otherwise notoriously studious man, is in this case, strangely off the cuff in this instance. But, once more, another bizarre turn, in the on going debacle."



wow. what's up with that dr. marc???
