Stockpile gold and build nuclear weapons...  sounds like a reasonable plan.

No shit, it's fucking heavy too... what a pain in the ass!  I wonder if it was prime eligible? Otherwise shipping costs must have been a bitch.

Just like obama to buy his way to a deal.   He won't be successful of course, he fucks up everything he touches.  

When it fails he will blame Bush, or Israel, or the GOP.   Anyone but he and his staff of socialist incompetents.

I didn't think FBHO had or was allowed to lift sanctions yet? 13 tonnes of gold is a lot of centrifuges...

That's only worth around what $ 485.89 million. I'm not really that impressed... yes 13 TONS of gold sounds like a lot, but in dollars, it aint all that.

This gold converter/calculator says 13 short tons is 21.6 cubic feet of gold.  http://www.traditionaloven.com/metal/gold-converter.html

So you could fit it all in a large gun safe (like this http://www.amazon.com/Mesa-Safe-Company-MBF7236E-Digital/dp/B002QQ7LGC, although you might want to spend more money on a safe for that)

Obama is making Jimmuh Carter look like a candidate for Mt. Rushmore.

ETA: So are they going to jack the Iranians around like they are doing to the Germans and TX by saying the serial numbers don't match? 'Yeah, um, let me see... Could you describe your gold bullion again for me?'

Well, at least we will be able to inspect their sites. Right?
