    Considering that the assembled company can't begin to agree on what happened in previous years, I think that predictions for the future are waffleware.

    The World Bank is an international organisation, with 184 member countries. However, it is in effect led by the US.

    Just like Rapid Deployment Force, and other phrases from the United States of America. Hmm.

    So the Rothchilds control - the Fed the EU Bank - I guess they must want to destroy the Bank of England - or - much easier push the UK into the Euro.


    The Federal Reserve is not Federal - it is in the hands of private Bankers.

    Plans to expand in the USA were less successful, but in the end, fruitful new ground was broken in Israel: the Balfour Declaration was addressed to Baron Rothschild, James Rothschild gifted the Knesset building to Israel, and Dorothy de Rothschild the Supreme Court. The Hebrew version of the song "If I were a rich man" is "If I were a Rothschild".

    Of course I don't really believe any of this . But I suspect that when the French G20 delegation blame the crisis on "cosmopolitan bankers", this is what they have in mind. Of course, G20 is a supermarket chain in France, so they may be becoming confused.

    Olive oil in a pan, 3 cloves of Garlic per person finely chopped, 1 tin of anchovies per person, 2 green chilies per person finely chopped. Half lemon juice per person. Gently fry till anchovies melt into juice then mix in cooked spaghetti.

    If you want to make some money buy storage and pack it full of anchovies tins. You will make a fortune if you can live for 30 years.
    That's right, you can sell them to 'Mom' for $50,000,000 or put them on a pizza to share with friends.

    Seriously, you will be able to pick up a tin of anchovies for 30 pence trade but in 30 years they will cost a fortune, a dead anchovy is probably the highest yield long term investment you can make.

    So does that mean that in 15 years time, people won't say that something smells of anchovies any more?
