Saw little story about this on Fox News this morning, are they going for Fort Knox now?

Some are saying the Foreign Central Banks have some sort of claim on it or it belongs to the Treasury and not the private Federal Reserve banks. they have 10,000 soldiers guarding it and they don't know how much is there and who owns it, or is it just our neo-thugs suddenly questioning who really owns it?

here is the Fox News Story , I found it on youtube.

Notice at 5:55 into the video, the guy is talking about how if other countries refuse to buy US Treasuries or US stocks, it's an act of war, that's why we have 186 F-22 raptors, enough to take out the entire rest of the world's airforce. Interesting, I always sort of wondered about that.

Well, if they can steal all the gold out of Fort Knox, that'll be the greatest heist of all time.

It is said to be the most impregnable vault on Earth: built out of granite, sealed behind a 22-tonne door, located on a US military base and watched over day and night by army units with tanks, heavy artillery and Apache helicopter gunships at their disposal.

Since its construction in 1937 the treasures locked inside Fort Knox have included the US Declaration of Independence, the Gettysburg Address, three volumes of the Gutenberg Bible and Magna Carta.

For several prominent investors and at least one senior US congressman it is not the security of the facility in Kentucky that is a cause of concern: it is the matter of how much gold remains stored there - and who owns it.
