MAJOR FOREIGN HOLDERS OF U.S. TREASURY SECURITIES

As the document is laid out in columns of text requiring wide columns, it doesn't post well here.

What is interesting and a little frightening for me is that Ireland has gone from holding $13.9 billion of worthless T-Bills in June 2008 to $50.6 billion in May 2009. What on earth is going on? A country that was already in recession, whose government claims they don't have money for this, that and the other, is pouring billions into the black hole that is the US treasury?

Maybe Ireland is to be taught a lesson and collapse like Iceland if they vote against joining with Europe's 'Jew World Order.'

Could it be that the 700 billion that Bernanke won't answer the whereabouts of was given to Euro banks to buy T-notes? That way the Fed can't be accused of printing money to buy it's own worthless securities.

Yes, I think that's the answer.

What is the vote looking like on Lisbon, Sullivan?
