Interesting timing of this info; it comes out a few days after Robert Trump passes away.
There is an amazing amount of BS and mixing of apples and oranges in this report. First off, BCCI was a Pakistani bank founded and funded by Pakistani merchants and money men and operated by a man familiar with international banking. Calling it a CIA bank is a joke. It was used by the CIA in Peshawar and other Pakistan cities because it was the only international bank available. Bank of America was operating in Pakistan but only in Karachi. An incredible ponzi scheme, BCCI opened banks everywhere in the Third World. To stay afloat it operated beyond the law in places like Paraguay and Panama in the Western Hemisphere; Dubai and Abu Dhabi in the Gulf, and Malaysia in Asia. To stay afloat it accepted drug money and opening dark accounts everywhere. It penetrated the American market because the Democrats, as usual, were corrupt, and the facade of propriety put forth by people like the Washington DC politicians and bankers, and people like Jimmy Carter (and his buddy Andrew Young) and Clark Clifford, was simply that, a facade. Don’t hang this BCCI albatross around the CIA’s neck, as a couple of Brit journalists tried; there are plenty of evil people operating in this world who have nothing to do with Langley.
