Alernatively, worshippers at the House of Putin will feel a tingle run up their legs.

The first straw of the global market collapse?

He made sure China had his back before he made the call, too.

Watch out!

That’s a laugh, for five years now the Fed Reserve just sends in the plumber protection unit at Bond auctions to buy them up, and Insurance companies are giving investors Market value adjustments to coax them into selling their pre-tarp bonds.
Janet Yellen would eat Putin’s lunch, let him sell, the Fed wants to monitize the debt further, that would be an opening.

“Most of the sanctions against Russia will bring harm to the United States itself....

I’m not sure if that’s desperation, bravado, or ignorance on the part of the man. Given Putin’s otherwise slick handling of the Russian propaganda machine, I’d say it’s more of the latter two. Someone needs to shoot his advisor with a tranquilizer gun.

Let them dump the bonds, then we can let others get the money they would get on the paying back of bonds.

Given that the Federal Reserve and its rigged control of interest rates, and monetization of government debt is the foundation of the nanny-state here in the USA, I am quite curious to see what would happen when a big US Government debt holder tries to dump their T-Bonds.

It might be ugly for us - or it might be ugly for them. Hard to say.

Either way - massive government debt held by foreigners who may one day be your enemy is not a sensible or stable long-term security policy.

Dump central banking altogether, UK sovereign debt, Euro debt, US debt, dump ALL sovereign debt.

Governments can create their own money, they don’t need to borrow it.

Arrest the financial elites as war crimes conspirators.

All the major military powers have to do this at the same time, or the bankers will get whichever nations they still are allowed to operate in to go to war against the nations that kicked them out.

Then begins the long job of “de-bankstering” the universities, industries, news media, capital markets, defense, government, tax-exempt foundations, inetelligence agencies, etc.

Sounds like a lot, but if done from the top down, once the top criminals are arrested and the reorganizations happen, everyone will realize that the bankster game is over.

Get rid of the puppet masters.

For some reason I get the felling our leaders, both Putin and O’bummer, are a couple of snotty nosed school-boys fighting in the school yard. That’s our diplomacy for you.
Now if China dumped our bounds we would really be in trouble.

Did someone say, "Cold War?" And dumping bonds, Pootie, seriously, that's a great idea! Go ahead, make our day, Putin! Dump those bonds (not a drop in the bucket compared to what the Chinese have bought)!

But then smart investors know Putin is talking smack. On RIA Novosti,...

Wikipedia
Rossiya Segodnya (official name: Federal State Unitary Enterprise International Information Agency Rossiya Segodnya; from Russian: Россия Сегодня, Russia Today) is the official Russian government owned international news agency founded by presidential decree on 9 December 2013. Rossiya Segodnya incorporates the former RIA Novosti news service and the Voice of Russia international radio service (formerly Radio Moscow).
