As you might know I attended the Jim Sinclair Q and A session in Austin on Saturday with Bill Murphy of GATA. The seminar lasted over 4 hours and we met many smart people and I call them “truth seekers.” One of these was a well-dressed German fellow who looked to be in his early 40’s. He came up to Bill Murphy during the first break and asked why GATA had not gotten all of their information out to the regulators and the media? He said, “The manipulation is so obvious, why don’t you go whistleblower?” Bill explained that GATA has tirelessly given uncovered information out for years, 16 years now and no one wants to hear it. Murphy went right down the line, he told of his CNBC appearance that was cut short and him never being allowed to appear since then … He explained that he and Chris Powell have given the CFTC piles of information, they’ve given multiple “smoking guns” to the press…yet nothing but silence.
Bill even explained that over the years, some reporters have even told him that the word “GATA” (Gold Antitrust Action Committee) could never be printed. In fact, about the only press over the years has been foreign press. He told of the 2001 Durban, South Africa trip and the press coverage, the fact that even Russia has carried news of and spoken of GATA…but only silence and suppression of the truth here in the U.S. and Britain.
The German guy wouldn’t give up though (because he’s a stubborn German, I should know as I am the same), he approached Bill 2 more times and couldn’t understand why GATA hasn’t been able to do what their primary mission is, namely exposing the truth about the suppression of gold’s price as part of keeping the markets “tame” (rigged). GATA’s mission has been merely about “free markets” or I should say the LACK of free markets. All they want is a free gold price and for that to reflect the “temperature” of markets much like a thermometer.
As I said, the German was stubborn and approached Murphy one last time after the conference…and only then did things start to roll. It turns out that this guy was quite successful, he retired 6 years ago (presumably in his 30’s) after selling his “headhunting” business. This is significant because he has ties and acquaintances in the German media…it was GAME ON! You could see Murphy’s face light up like a Christmas tree! Could this be possible? A German who truly understands what has been happening AND a connection to the German media…at a time when Germany has been defaulted on and it appears that their gold is gone?
The 3 of us spent a couple of hours brainstorming as to how to approach this and of course nothing was set in stone but much as an artist sketches an outline…it was drawn up last night. Bill is going to pull the “entire file” with every piece to the puzzle and every smoking gun that GATA has uncovered over the years. This “file” will be shown to several journalists in Germany AND also to Bafin. Bafin if you will recall is the financial regulatory agency that is cracking down on LIBOR, bank fraud and also “gold manipulation.” Bafin’s President Elke Koenig made the comments last month that “if there is gold manipulation it would be far worse than LIBOR.”
This is a dream come true! Germany is hungry for any information about gold right now…because they have figured out that theirs is, well, “it’s gone!” And compiling information about gold and the fraud that has surrounded it for at least 42 years is the only thing that GATA has done for 16 years…except no one wanted to hear it in the U.S., NO ONE. Chris Powell had already sent this information last month to Bafin with no response from them at all. The plan is to get this information to Bafin “publicly” so that the German populace knows full well that the regulator has all of the smoking guns and 1 media outlet in an exclusive scoop. This information will be followed by a “presentation” to the German public who are only now beginning to ask questions since the U.S. has dragged its feet on shipping German gold back to its rightful owners.
This will not be a presentation by a bunch of knucklehead conspiracy theorists. Please understand that GATA has now and has had for quite some time enough information that put together properly paints an absolute masterpiece of who did what and how. Murphy wants to put together an All Star team to make this presentation; he intends to request that the likes of Jim Sinclair, Eric Sprott, James Turk, John Embry, (a special surprise guest) and others participate. Please understand that this presentation will not be some sort of “he said she said” or “I think” blah blah blah, no, there is a paper trail evidence of much that has transpired over the years. There is a “paper trail” in reality for EVERYTHING that has transpired over the years though much of it is hidden and out of sight. This evidence is NOT out of Bafin’s sight however.
The thought process is this, inform the German people exactly what has happened, why it has happened and where we (they) are now. This will obviously put some pressure on politicians to get behind this which will pressure the regulators to dig…deep. We were told last night by our “German friend” that the population is just now beginning to ask questions about their gold, that the media sources that he knows very well may have an interest in this, that there are some politicians (more than just Ron Paul here in the U.S.) already asking these questions and of course Elke Koenig who has already claimed gold manipulation.
It looks to me like “GATA” is all they need. GATA finally after all these years (of digging for the truth and finding piece after piece after piece and thinking with each one “no one could ignore this”) may have their mission statement accomplished. Germany is expressing a desire for answers and GATA has them all in one file. The funny thing is that Bill Murphy and Chris Powell have always said over the years that “once the system collapses, Congress will investigate and we’ll have everything that they need to find out why.” I’ve even kidded Murphy many times that I can picture him testifying to Congressmen who don’t even have a clue what he’s talking about. Little did I know that he may end up testifying to a German translator in a foreign land? I might add that the Germans are also a little ticked off over Angel Merkel being spied on and our wonderful diplomat who said, “Screw the EU… (And we have the nerve to be upset that she was spied on?).
If this does work and I believe it will because Germany is hungry for the truth, the world will change drastically and quickly. It will surely feel like it’s for the worse in the short run but in the long run, fraud deceit, theft and rigged markets to keep the status quo can never be permanent. GATA has the “power of truth” behind them, hopefully I am not being naïve and this mission gets accomplished.
Hooray, Bill! May Providence lend a (further) helping hand in this most important endeavor!
I no longer believe in coincidences; I now believe that things happen for a reason. A ‘guiding hand’ may have placed the well-connected German before Bill M.
May the GATA/German media collaboration bear wonderful fruit, and speed the overthrow of our current terrible system.
here’s hoping!
Thanks Bill (and for all your other superb pieces!).
I so hope you can all pull this off. 15 years of dedicated effort by GATA and the indefatigable powerhouse that is Chris Powell vindicated at last. Almost too good to be true! Maurice (UK silverbug!)
this will go forward with total effort, I have seen articles in German financial publications over the last 6 months that speak of the manipulation. I don’t believe this will be silenced.
Sounds promising Bill. Might it be an idea to make the material available to an even wider circle of Key people. Willem Middlekoop and Koos Jansen in the Netherlands come to mind.
Cheers,
mark
as I wrote, “and others”…
as I wrote, “and others”…so yes everyone will be brought into this and hopefully it makes a huge buzz everywhere.
Great stuff bill. I hope this does bring the much needed attention & truth the German populace is in search for. With that being said I have my doubts. Why weren’t the Germans up in arms when they were told it would take7+years to get their gold back over a year ago? They Germans as a whole I feel are a much more in tune & informed people than we the sheeple. Plus the fact that Chris & Bill haven’t been whacked byTPTB after all these years of shedding the truth. I think says that the TPTB don’t really consider them a threat that can’t extinguish. I still feel you’re on the money with china being the ones who set off this whole thing when the west can no longer supply gold.
of course China once not delivered on will pull the plug but this German thing will speed that day and hopefully be very public. Who knows, maybe it will even make the rounds here in the U.S. but I’m not holding my breath on this one.
Hello Bill,
Here is another German goldbug, who is a regular reader of this site (by the way thanks for a fantastic blog)
I am a member of the largest german financial community ( Wallstreet-Online) and if you want i can help to publish any information over there, in order to get a larger audience. There are subthreads for gold and silver, where many gold/silverbugs are present and it might help to spread the word.
Let me know, if and how i can help.
Bill,
Love reading your articles! However, after reading this article I can’t help but think that this should’ve been done in secret until ready to air. If this plan works according to plan and has a major impact on regulations and exposing manipulation I can’t help but think that TPTB would quell any and all information or god forbid “suicide anybody.” Anyway, I hope you guys continue to fight the good fight and that truth and justice are on our side.
Godspeed and good luck!
Sean
the information has already been dug up and is in the public domain far and wide…and too many voices would step forward to replace fallen soldiers at this point. Believe me this was part of our first night’s discussion but we decided to do it this way to try to create a wave so large that it could not be ignored. Thanks for the concern but I’m a bad shot with a nail gun!
Hahahaha I’m pretty terrible with a nail gun too! Again, Godspeed and good luck! Thank you for all that you guys do!
I started reading what David had to say back a few years ago. When Andy came aboard I kept on reading, when Bill came aboard I not only kept on reading. I read religiously and todays article seems to be the most important of all. I don’t have a whole lot so what ever the results are won’t effect me much, but to finally get the truth out of the screamers will be very satisfying.
I thank David for what he has created in this very fine news and information daily.
thank you Red.
WOW!! When you told me yesterday to wait for an article about the “German Guy” I had no idea! Although its too early to pop the cork yet hope is no less a wonderful thing! I can feel things heating up. The days of the status quo are over. Change is in the air. How long is anyone’s guess but the knowledge of the Lords alone. None the less. It’s coming. Thanks Bill!!
trust me velocity, if the Germans blow this thing wide open there will be no celebrating anywhere on the planet except for the fact that the truth will be out.
Bill, all the best of luck with this venture, hope this will turn out not just another hollow exercise running against a concrete wall.
The Bankster Cartel is an all powerful entity, and we’re talking here of the Banksters from the City, WS, Fed, BIS and their appendages the USG and the entire system from SEC, CFTC to the entire Judiciary – the lot.
Include in this the real power behind the throne, the Zio Bankster Families who got their ill-gotten wealth over the corpses of hundreds of million through wars they initiated for their profiteering.
Every War is a Bankster War, to be sure!
They believe that they’re fighting for the very existence of their iniquitous Private Fiat Currency FRL Crime Racket by destroying their competition; Gold and Silver.
Although this is just a ruse, the link between Gold and Fiat/Interest Rates is a fabled subterfuge for the Gold suppression Crime Racket which nets the Crims Trillions in loot over the decades.
If you can rig markets with impunity for decades you can rape, loot and pilfer Trillions from Productive Citizens since only the parasitic mega Crims always win at the expense of the productive people.
Summers’ Gibson’s Paradox is a hatchet job at the behest of the Crims, WS/Fed/USG-ESF/BIS, to justify this Gold suppression Crime Racket and everyone has swallowed the fraud and treachery hook line and sinker.
The USG is fighting for the perpetuation of their Crime Racket, the World Reserve Currency; print and buy real goods from around the world with ever depreciating confetti paper.
Print and fund a gigantic military to maintain an Empire of oppression, exploitation and subservience.
Print, rape and pilfer and buy all the Media on the planet and brainwash the populace.
All based on the premise that Gold is the arch nemesis of Fiat, so it must be destroyed.
In part this is so, since Gold is the people’s choice as Money and Fiat is the leeching Banksters parasitic Crime Racket of exploitation; print out of thin air and charge interest, buy up all the Govs, buy up all the assets, buy the entire system, Executive, Legislative, Judiciary, the lot with the money looted from YOU, the Productive Citizens.
But they could coexist if the constitution and law would be applied, and people could make a choice, Honest Money; Gold or Confetti!
The German people must fully understand the connections, reasons and the venal machinations behind the veil of propaganda Lies by Govs and MSM.
What do North Korea, Libya, Syria, Iran, Sudan, Iraq, Afghanistan all have in common? They all have/had publicly owned CBs outside the Zio Banksters’ control and thus they all are ‘OUR’ enemies and must be vilified, marginalized, boycotted with sanctions and destroyed.
What do Iraq and Libya have in common; selling oil for other than Satan’s Currency.
Gaddafi made himself a particular target with his proposed Honest Money Gold Dinar.
The ‘Rebels’ formed a new Private CB in Libya while the fighting was still ongoing and Gaddafi was still in power!!!! And then his gold disappeared.
The Banksters are totally in control and every single atrocity, ‘uprising’, terrorist attack, civil unrest, mayhem, war all lead back to these murky powers.
And people must understand the deep connections of these atrocities and crimes against humanity perpetrated by the Bankster/USG crime matrix.
It all revolves around Satan’s Currency, FRL, World Reserve Currency status and Hegemony over the planet by these Criminals!
GATA will never get anywhere without the media on board. I truly hope that this time they are
I agree
Bill
If you’re interested, I would like to fill you in on Ukraine as this will provide you with a few more dots.
If not – no worries. Keep writing and keep fighting.
please write and post it here, thanks.
