Was it also any coincidence that the London Metals Exchange went completely dark on that very same day?
And was it just an equal coincidence that HSBC, the second largest silver short holder on the LBMA, went completely offline as the choreographed Friday massacre in silver took place?

The United States has gathered more firepower in the Middle East than we have ever seen before. It exceeds anything that we witnessed during Operation Desert Storm, it exceeds anything that we witnessed during the war in Afghanistan, and it exceeds anything that we witnessed during the war in Iraq.

But without a doubt, at this moment we are exceedingly close to a cataclysmic showdown in the Middle East.

senior planners at CENTCOM have been instructed to maintain high-level staffing 24 hours a day “for the next month,” a directive that effectively places the command on a sustained war-planning footing.
