There was another article at that proprietary website this morning about the gold leases and swaps.

US law prihibits the Fed or Treasury to sell America's sovereign gold without congressional approval, so we swapped our gold with the Germans, and they sold it for us. We then took the German gold -- which is also subject to (German) legislative permission -- and sold it for them. This way, both the Fed and German central banks could tell the world they hadn't sold their own nations' sovereign gold and still be telling the truth.

But that raises the question of where the real gold went. Who has it? It sounds like we may have uncovered a piece of a larger plot that was aimed at cornering the world's gold. But who was doing it, and where is the real gold being stored?

"....where is the real gold being stored?"

I doubt we will know. If anything the Government would want to suppress a story like this now.

The recent purchase of gold by India was from the IMF. I asked Freepers how the IMF got gold. A reply was that the U.S. had "loaned" the IMF the gold. What's up with this maneuvering of gold around the world?
