Some of the stuff these guys were sending me was speculation, presented as news, that Libya was attacked, this year, because a couple of times in the past he had suggested a gold backed Pan African currency. And that that currency so threatened the dollar that the US attacked Lybia. It went on to speculate that this new currency would be possible because Libya has more gold per capita than The Bank of England. AND that Iraq was invaded and sanctions imposed in 2003 and 2000 because in 2000 Saddam Hussein proposed a gold based currency.
This is not news. It is simply feeding paranoia and public ignorance.
