The dollar's role in world trade is declining almost as rapidly as the federal government is conjuring fiat money out of thin air. The latest blow comes with the creation of a Gulf Monetary Council, with the aim of establishing a multinational petro-state currency.

“Ah yes, everything is proceding as planned.” Chuckles the evil genius Barak Obama as he rubs his hands with glee!

The ultimate goal? A Pan-Moslem currency, beginning in the Gulf, backed by oil and gold and spreading to all Islam-dominated nations as a refutation to what they consider "Jew" banking and the Jews' fiat derived currencies.

It may be possible but I find it hard to believe that these so called states that are in reality merely rival tribes that have grown to the point of being ungovernable could ever put aside their ancient feuds long enough to put together a common system of exchange.

The levels of suspicions that exist between them has thwarted every attempt they have ever made to achieve a common goal.

The Euro is falling to pieces. Why would an oil currency fare any better?

The surest way to break America is competition to the dollar with real money, if neither Congress nor the Executive responds in kind

Yet, gold is falling in value on the news right now.

A lot of hot air. Look at the recent problems with Dubai. Also, the Koran does not permit them to charge interest; a major problem. The reason Jews historically became bankers is that it was beneath the moslems to be “money changers”. Same reason there are so many Jews that own their own businesses....anti-semites wouldn’t hire them.

Im not sure this plays out in such dire fashion.Blocs of countries that choose the options of birthing new currencies also dilute the pool of perspective reserves.Something like this also depresses every other currency that is the supposed successor to the USD.

More hype.
