The Sisters....remember Enrico Mattei? Enough said. I believe that the first official act of the anti-Gaddaffi forces was to establish a central bank. The first rebels in history to do anything like that. It gives it all away. The BIS is surely one of the great fountains of evil and cruelty. We all need to do as much as possible to direct attention towards it.

Your disinclination to analyze personalities is wise. Keeping the focus on the tangible, pragmatic, facts is the key. A focus on personalities leads us astray.

Yes! I titled my subsection on this "Insurgents in Suits." What rebel mob sets up a Central Bank?

Glad that you appreciate my practice of politics as policy rather than personalitics, which is all our current level of debate boils down to.

And Sunni Arabs at that! The only people on earth to retain a cultural/religious abhorrence of finance. And the rebels were supported by Qatar (which is Wahabi). The official narrative does not add up.
