Venezuela has moved its central bank foreign reserves out of U.S. banks, liquidated its investments in U.S. Treasury securities and placed the funds in Europe, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said Friday.

"We've had to move the international reserves from U.S. banks because of the threats," from the U.S., Chavez said during televised remarks from a South American summit in Brazil.

Quietly last week, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) released a 59-page document outlining new rules forcing broadband internet and voice-over-IP (VoIP) phone service providers to open up their systems to federal, state and local law enforcement officials.

In releasing the rules, the FCC opened up a 30-day public comment period. The regulations, which are planned for implementation in 2007, were decided upon in the beginning of August and made public Friday without a news release or other announcement

The plea bargain struck by former Pentagon analyst Lawrence A. Franklin – charged with five counts of handing over classified information to officials of a pro-Israel lobbying group, who passed it on to Israeli diplomatic personnel – has delivered a body blow to the defense of the two remaining accused spies. Steve Rosen, who for 20 years was the chief lobbyist over at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), and Keith Weissman, AIPAC's top foreign policy analyst, befriended Franklin and pumped him for top-secret information – including sensitive data about al-Qaeda, the Khobar Towers terrorist attack, Iran's weapons program, and attacks on U.S. soldiers in Iraq. Now they face the likely prospect of Franklin testifying to their treason in court

A Bush Cabinet officer predicted this week that New Orleans likely will never again be a majority black city, and several black officials are outraged.
    Alphonso R. Jackson, secretary of housing and urban development, during a visit with hurricane victims in Houston, said New Orleans would not reach its pre-Katrina population of "500,000 people for a long time," and "it's not going to be as black as it was for a long time, if ever again.

Success Story / Incident of the Month

Well, we had an Incident.  On September 6, The Citizen in Laconia, New Hampshire, ran an article titled: “Liberty Dollar causes concern in the region.”  Article is available at  http://www.libertydollar.org/html/articles/%27Liberty%20Dollar%27%20causes%20concern%20in%20the%20region%20-%20Fosters.htm .  And although it presented great visuals of the Liberty Dollar and mentioned several positive points, it was not the most flattering article.  In fact, it started out with the Belknap County Sheriff Dan Collis saying that people had been “fooled” by the Liberty Dollar.  The article went on to say that: “≤when the complaint about a particular Liberty $10 coin first reached Collis, he called the Secret Service — the federal agency responsible for investigating counterfeit money. The Secret Service is aware of the Liberty Dollar, Collis explained, but because the dollar does not replicate a Federal Reserve note, it is not illegal.”

 

So if it is not illegal, what’s the problem?  Our heroic Regional Currency Office manned by Charles Hampe did his best in the article to counter the Sheriff’s misinterpretations of the Law.  But the article ended with the Sheriff getting the last word: “Anyone who feels he has been tricked into accepting non-legal tender as payment for goods or services, Collis said, is encouraged to contact a local law enforcement agency.” 

 

Then in an undated letter about a week later, Keith D. True (actual name) the Lieutenant/Prosecutor for the Police Department in Meredith, New Hampshire, issued a letter to all the merchants that said among other things: 1) “The coin has no value≤”  2) “≤ if a person tries to pass off ≤ coin≤ is committing the crime of Theft of Services.”  3) “If you encounter someone passing this coin, please contact the Meredith Police Department.” 

 

Well, with such false information from Officer True, the Liberty Dollar’s Chief Counsel responded to True’s false letter and this Incident died a happy death.  New Hampshire has now returned to “Live free [of police lies] or die.” 

 

My compliments and thanks to our Chief Counsel and Charles Hampe’s well-maintained response to such action within his region where a lot more people now know about the Liberty Dollar thanks to The Citizen article.  And our thanks go out to Mike La Mesa who brought the police letter to our attention.  Of course, “denial” is the first step toward the truth.  It is only by taking action that we will ever live free from the tyranny of fiat government money. 

 

If you encounter an Incident or a Success Story, please send it to the Office.  Very rarely does an Incident require a letter from our Chief Counsel.  This Incident was an exception


One find there is particularly telling. In Book XIX of the “Odyssey,” the just-returned and still disguised Odysseus tells his wife (who may or may not realize who she’s talking to; Homer is deliberately ambivalent) that he encountered Odysseus many years earlier on the island of Crete. He describes in detail a gold brooch the king wore on that occasion.

A gold brooch meeting that precise description lies now in the archeological museum at Argostoli, the main city on Kefalonia, 30 miles across the island from Poros. Other gold jewelry and seals carved in precious stones excavated from the tomb offer further proof the grave outside Poros was used to bury kings.
