This is because the unemployment rate give only takes into account people that are unemployed and are looking for work. It does not account for those that are unemployed and have given up.
ex) A woman who looses her job because of technological advances is looking for work and is considered unemployed (taken into account), however a man who has tried looking for work after he was laid off has given up (not counted)
ex) A woman lost her job during the depression and cant seem to get a job with her limited skills. She has given up and is not counted in the unemployment rate

When the Fed sells debt in the international market, the world economy money supply is expanded by exchanging debt for cash from the general public. Instead, when the Fed sell bonds, the supply of money is reduced by cash being pulled out of the market in return for bonds. The Fed also sells bonds.
