Gold passes $2000. Israel destroys Gaza's telecommunications, essentially cutting off the strip from the world as the Israeli air force bombs relentlessly in its 'scorched earth' and 'total war' theory, which has not been seen in modern warfare for the last 60 years. A wider conflict is now inevitable.

 

As discussed in this post, re: Gold now bid towards the psychological support of $2000.  The doomsday hedge has now surpassed 2000, please refer to the chart above and it is all about the Middle East.  As Israel in one of the most brutal aerial bombing campaigns since WW2, has not just cut off Gaza, water, electricity and fuel.  But now their telecommunications systems, which is the beginning of the Israeli army attempt at destroying the whole area.   This will definitely bring in other Middle Eastern countries to attack Israel, with America supporting Israel's total war on the Palestinians, will lead to a wider conflict.
