    AUTHOR

    Kelly Mitchell works as a strategic business analyst. With
    a lengthy career in investing, a deep knowledge of the
    globalized economy and an unconventional insight into
    modern markets, he brings a unique, much-needed voice
    to a largely one-sided debate.  He is also the author of A
    Spiritual Autopsy of Science and Religion and Advise
    Yourself: Exposing the Financial Adviser Scam.  Mitchell
    provides insight on financial protection in today's
    corrupted markets at gold-wars.com.

    SYNOPSIS


    Gold Wars: Battle for the Global Economy addresses the grotesque,
    growing and unsustainable imbalances in the financial system. As gold is
    the barometer of systemic ills, a war on gold–to drive down its price—is
    taking place to hide the negative impacts of fiat currency, shadow banking
    and central banking on the global financial system.

    Starting with an introductory discussion on the nature of money and the
    bizarre fractional reserve structure currently in place, Mitchell moves on
    to address the massive, but little known systemic pivot point: the
    Petrodollar standard. Tying dollars to oil, this mechanism undergirds the
    dollar's reserve status. But soon it will fail with paradigm shifting
    consequences.

    Gold Wars features a detailed breakdown of the gross manipulations in
    the gold market - from nonexistent paper gold, smackdowns, high-
    frequency trading, and ETF's to Central Bank games like
    swapping/leasing, shell accounting, midnight raids, clandestine gold
    movements and regulatory attacks on investors. Mitchell offers a
    prediction of the results for the gold market: when the manipulation fails,
    paper and physical prices will separate, with the physical selling for
    multiples of paper.

    Similarly silver, with its own unique characteristics for industry and
    investment, is also targeted as a potential refuge for flight from paper,
    though strangely, above-ground gold is now more plentiful than silver.

    Add to this a silver short position rolling from one institution to another as
    each fails, a 4-year foot dragging investigation into market fraud, and a
    class action suit for manipulation and the market has a recipe for a
    pressure cooker at maximum.

    Western banks, lacking the gold to cover their obligations, will eventually
    declare a force majeure–an event supposedly the result of the elements
    of nature, as opposed to one caused by human behavior–as a pretext
    for settling their obligations in increasingly valueless paper.

    Where is the resistance to this distortion and corruption of value? Power
    is flowing East as China and Russia have drawn in massive amounts of
    gold while denying the inflow. The BRICS will unveil a gold backed trade
    note to supplant the dollar. Simultaneously, they will force the US debt
    back home in exchange for real assets, choking the Fed/Treasury on the
    mountain of paper, and grabbing the financial power. This momentous
    shift is already underway.

    What is to be done? Some radical solutions are examined
