Bloomberg are saying that the date of issue for the bonds was 1934.

And the amounts seized in Italy match the amounts of available funds in TARP.
Is Japan worried about the US Dollar and cashing in now? Do they know some thing others do not.
Who tipped off the Italians who get a 1/3 or more of the total as a fine for smuggling currency? Did these guys want to be caught riding a workers train in their Armani suits and briefcases? Why not fly straight into Switzerland. They have airports I hear. Why not use diplomatic pouches if it was government level? And they have been released. Why? No customs or immigration laws broken?
Interesting timing: http://www.reuters.com/article/usDollarR...7420090611
And most interesting of all still no MSM coverage.
Wow! That was REALLY a large amount of money in 1934!!!!
The entry into Switzerland via Italy by train?!.....something doesn't fit and is not 'kosher' here....correction - many things!
"At the same time, Japan’s Kyodo news agency has reported that the resignation of Japan’s Interior Minister Kunio Hatoyama might also be related to the Ponte Chiasso affair. Officially the minister quit as a result of a row over who should head the state-owned Japan Post, but some sources have suggested that such a scenario is not very plausible since Mr Hatoyama was Prime Minister Taro Aso’s main ally in his rise to the prime minister’s office, and is especially unconvincing since the ruling coalition government has to face elections in just two weeks time. Indeed there are many reasons to connect the Ponte Chiasso incident to the minister’s resignation."
Anyone into coincidences?

U.S. TIC data show that during the 12 months ending January 2007, Japanese investors bought just $18.2 billion in Treasury coupons, or approximately $1.5 billion a month, a sharp contrast from the 12 months ending January 2005 when Japanese investors purchased $134.5 billion of U.S. government debt, McCarthy noted.
and, as has been already noted above.....
The Treasury Department said it has about $134.5 billion left in its financial-rescue fund.
