Dubious[edit]

The article, not the book, makes a dubious claim that a presidential order was "virtually unknown". This appears to be gibberish - every presidential order is a matter of public record, there have been thousands of them, and the vast majority of them are not something your average American can name off the top of his or her head. 76.182.98.15 (talk) 03:30, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hence, virtually unknown. I'm happy to see that you made my point for me in your own argument.Gw2005 (talk) 18:50, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I quote from the article writer " "Currency War" first chapter[13] discuss about the "Executive Order 11110"[14]: On June 4, 1963 President Kennedy signed this virtually unknown[dubious – discuss] Presidential decree, which, as an amendment to Executive Order 10289, delegated the authority to issue silver certificates (notes convertible to silver on demand) to the Secretary of the Treasury. The direct consequence was the Federal Reserve lost its monopoly to control money." If the author is doubting the "existence" of EO 11110 then I refer the author to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_11110. If the author is doubting the consequences of the EO 11110 then it is up to the author to further explain why and not state their doubt as a fact. I suggest the dubious-discuss tag be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.54.44.72 (talk) 06:50, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Currency Wars is not anti-semitic[edit]

I have read the book myself. I think it is wrong to accuse the book as anti-semitic.

The author, Mr. Song, is trying to add his own opinion and analysis to the facts in the book.

The example which he uses for elite banking group of people happens to be Rothschild family whom themselves, are Jews. In a Chinese TV interview, he claims 90% of Wall Streets used to be Jewish and they hold important positions there even now. From his point of view, he just states the obvious facts.

NOTHING, there is nothing in the book says go out and do Jewish people any harm. As my Jewish neighbor, which lives in a low-medium income neighborhood like me, they don't receive a dime from Rothschild family. I think the claim of anti-semitic on this book is flat wrong.

Criticism does not equal to persecution.

All in all, I think this is a great book. It will shed light to ideas you haven't exposed to before.

Like possible link between

JFK assassination and his silver reserve currency presidential execute order. Abraham Lincoln's assassination and the way he funds his civil war. Reagan's attempted assassination and his possible reform on money issuance. How Fed reserve is created and enacted into law and who are behind them.

It is weird that I can't find the English version of the book. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pahtai11365 (talk • contribs) 14:44, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's no use trying to argue with Jews. Anything even mildly critical of their race will be construed as "anti-Semitism". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.118.117.129 (talk) 23:45, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The book mainly focuses on the actions of the elites of Jews and there Euro-American counterparts the international bankers, there is almost nothing except in book 2 chapters discussing the international banker's role in the establishment of Israel, on the Jews as a whole.--Wikireader20000 (talk) 14:16, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Currency Wars may not be anti-semitic, but this entry is (was)[edit]

It would be nice to have a reader of the book who knows something about western banking edit this article so that it's a little clearer how much of the book is conspiracy theory tripe, and how much is an interesting pov analysis from a Chinese perspective on actual financial dynamics.

Here is my reasoning for deleting the sentence "In other writings...and other Jewish banks..." The point here is not about Song's supposed anti-semitism, but the person who authored this Wikipedia entry sentence. Pahtai11365, here is a simple test to figure out if the underlying current of something is anti-WHATEVER: ask yourself, is this label pertinent to the impression the author is trying to give? (e.g. Is the book author claiming that ONLY Jewish controlled banks sold 'toxic assets' to developing nations?) If the label is not accurately representative of the wide range of agents being characterized, than the insertion of the modifier is meant to reinforce stereotypes and intentionally mislead.

In any event, the sentence is irrelevant to the entry on this particular book. And is dubious in both counts by the way - the origin of those collapses were more complex than merely the sale of 'toxic assets' to developing countries, and I would imagine the book author pointed to the role of currency speculation as well as derivatives, poor underwriting and regulatory regimes. The issue of book author's attribution of financial dynamics to Jewish ethnicity within the book is already highlighted under the "Reception" subheading. --Gwengazorn (talk) 13:45, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
