all the documents are fake....reminds one of the current extrapolation occurring under the hubris of mathematicians enlisted to counterfeit shares on behalf of masters who previously collected fees for bringing forth legal authorized stock under holistic laws governing issuance.

dont be fooled by shennanigans, cursor monitors are just the same as bought and paid for math guys....

a few days more and the bird will find its roost, no matter the shennanigans emminating from the department of control mechanisms its broke....

broken, saran wrapped math...its the thing that needs to reboot.

sell nothing with forward demand....if you cant figure out what that is...just monitor the mouthpieces and they will tell you.

Terrific bit of logical analysis but the bonds are clearly fake.

Why?

Because the police 'found' them.

Not at a border check but in Italy where the two neat/tidy Japanese were detained before entering Switzerland.

Doesn't that say it all?

Plus, 249 certificates said to be worth $500 million accounted for the bulk of the $134 billion. That's 125 and 124 certificates per smuggler. Can't even the most moronissimo smuggler hide 125 pieces of paper? Send them via DHL or FedEx or simply mail?

The Italians were onto these ninjas well before they arrested them, implying that the chances of a fraud are on the order of about 99%.

The long history of advance money scams using counterfeit Federal Reserve documents as props is more interesting than the typical email from Nigeria.

I think the larger purported value makes it more amazing someone could be taken in. _ newyorkfed.org

after Japanese bonds: Iran dismisses claims about $18.5 billion container load
Tehran Times Political Desk

TEHRAN -- The Iranian Intelligence Ministry has dismissed reports claiming that a multi-billion dollar container-load from Iran has been confiscated by Turkey’s customs office.

According to investigations conducted by the ministry, the reports claiming that $18.5 billion in cash and gold was transited from Iran to Turkey are totally baseless, the Intelligence Ministry Public Relations Department announced on Tuesday.

The statement also urged media outlets to avoid disseminating unconfirmed reports.

Prior to this announcement, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Hassan Qashqavi said that relevant officials are thoroughly examining the issue.

However, Turkish customs officials have said they are unaware of such a confiscation, he said.

“After reports were disseminated by certain media outlets quoting a Turkish lawyer, the Islamic Republic’s embassy in Ankara has been seriously following up the issue,” Qashqavi added.

He also dismissed media reports claiming that the gold is worth $11 billion, saying, “The value of 20 metric tons of gold amounts to about $500 million.”

Turkey’s Kanal D channel had earlier reported that Iranian businessman Esmael Safarian-Nasab had moved $7.5 billion in cash and 20 tons of gold to Turkey in October 2008.

In an interview with Kanal D, Safarian-Nasab’s lawyer, Senol Ozel, said that his client wants his money and gold back.

Ozel says the Turkish government’s new regulations to attract foreign investment had encouraged his client to move his fortune to Turkey but Safarian-Nasab now wants to withdraw his investment.

Turkish State Minister Hayati Yazici dismissed the report as “false and baseless”, Turkey’s official news agency Anadolu reported

US official vows 'good explanation' for Colombia bases after unease expressed in Latin America.
By Yana Marull (AFP) – 13 hours ago

BRASILIA — US President Barack Obama's national security advisor said Tuesday Washington will give a "good explanation" for plans to deploy US military units to bases in Colombia, after unease expressed in Latin America.

Retired general Jim Jones told reporters after meeting Brazilian Defense Minister Nelson Jobim in Brasilia that the goals of the agreement being negotiated allowing the use of the bases would be detailed.

The matter "will have a good explanation and a satisfactory outcome," he predicted to reporters as he began two days of talks with Brazilian officials on that and other defense issues.

Brazil and other Latin American nations, including Venezuela, Ecuador and Chile, expressed alarm at the announcement last month that the United States military would use and expand bases in Colombia.

Bogota had initially said three air bases would be used for the US fight against drug trafficking.

But the head of the Colombian military, General Freddy Padilla, said Tuesday two army bases and two navy bases would also be given US access under the deal, bringing the total to seven military facilities.

US General Douglas Fraser, in charge of US Southern Command operations covering South America, stressed after a meeting with Padilla in Cartagena, Colombia, that no deal had yet been struck.

Brazil's Lula said last week he was "not happy" at even one base being handed over for US operations.

His foreign minister, Celso Amorim, said on the weekend: "What worries Brazil is a strong military presence whose aim and capability seems to go well beyond what might be needed inside Colombia."

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, long a thorn in the side of the United States, has said he feared the bases might be used for an invasion of his country by a "Yankee military force."

Colombian President Alvaro Uribe, Washington's principal ally in South America, on Tuesday left for a tour to include Peru, Chile, Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay where he would reassure regional governments about the bases.

Jones's hasty visit was also seen as an effort to smooth ruffled feathers in Brazil, which increasingly sees itself as Latin America's pre-eminent economic and political power.

The US national security advisor forecast that the issue "will in no way interfere the progress of our friendship and our cooperation together."
