All - sorry about the double or triple pasting in my post. Ooops - the information is repeated more than twice.
NBF - speaking of Brazil...I think its much bigger than just oil. This is shaping up to be a global-scale money laundering operation from the US taxpayers, through the governments of several countries, with soros at the nexus.
I had no idea of the extent of all this. Very very scary.
When one begins to connect the dots, I don't know whether I am more frightened because of the financial implications or because the country's sovereignty is becoming so vulnerable under the circumstances.
