I have yet to understand how the anti-Semites came to believe that Rockefeller is a Jewish name. It's alright. I'm Jewish, but this gold-conspiracy thing doesn't bother me. Gold is passee. When they find out that Mary Gates (Bill Gates' Mom) was born Miriam Epstein, then we'll be in trouble. <vbg>

Def, <That Gold Monitor post is obviously anti-Semitic, quite erroneous and frankly repulsive. (Chase Manhattan Bank, for instance, is only a name with Manufacturers Hanover in control, not Rockefeller.)> I thought you might like to read another response (again from the Gold Monitor thread) "John: Things aren't as transparent as they seem judging by your post. Many people don't realize (though most on this thread do), that the Fed. Reserve bank is a group of banks in the US, privately held, and they alone have the authority to physically print money and set interest rates, affecting monetary and fiscal policy worldwide. A close examination of any US paper note bears not the government guarantee, but the Federal Reserve Bank. Sounds like government, but it isn't!" ************** I don't know enough about this issue to comment with authority, but the concensus seems to be that the Fed is controlled by a consortium of banks. Are you taking issue with which banks they are? Also, what's the anti-semitic slant here? I think it could be argued either way. Could be pro-semitic, couldn't it? Still learning. Mark
