A "Golden Age" in the first millennium saw the emergence of the Ashkenazi Jews, while the persecution and expulsion that followed the Crusades led to the ? They never existed, admitted the Independent Claims Tribunal in Zurich recently. After relatives of Holocaust survivors There are many famous Holocaust survivors who survived the Nazi genocides in Europe and went on to achievements of great fame and notability. Those listed here were, at the very least, residents of the parts of Europe occupied by the Axis powers during World War II who survived accused Swiss bankers of financial complicity with the Nazis, a 17-member tribunal set up in 1997 spent four years investigating thousands of dormant bank accounts. But, as the London Times reported on October 13th, the Zurich Independent Claims Tribunal has found only 200 accounts, worth about 6.9 million pounds, that could be traced to Holocaust victims While victims of the Holocaust were primarily Jews, the Nazis also persecuted and often killed millions of members of other groups they considered inferior, undesirable or dangerous. -- out of more than 10,000 accounts investigated. "It was a very difficult and often sad process. When we first set up the tribunal, we were sure that nearly all these accounts would be those of Nazi victims. But few were," said Alexander Jolles, secretary-general of the Tribunal. Most of the dormant accounts, in fact, were traced to wealthy families who had lost track of their money during the war -- essentially the same kind of people who still use Swiss banking services today. Large numbers of the accounts belonged to Americans and French as well as Italians, Germans, and others, and many of them dated back to the '20s, when, against a backdrop of worldwide financial and political turbulence, Switzerland was regarded as a haven of stability. Don't expect this news to be reported to be spoken of; to be mentioned, whether favorably or unfavorably.

The Swiss have never been popular with the globalist set, in part because of their dogged neutrality and consequent avoidance of war and entangling international alliances, and in part because their absolutely confidential banking policies provide a welcome haven for those of the world's wealthy wishing to shield their assets from the scrutiny and grasping hand of the State. The Swiss banks have already paid a settlement of $1.5 billion in extortion extortion, in law, unlawful demanding or receiving by an officer, in his official capacity, of any property or money not legally due to him. Examples include requesting and accepting fees in excess of those allowed to him by statute or arresting a person and, with money to settle a class-action lawsuit launched by families of Holocaust victims, money which doubtless has found its way in large part to the coffers of the lawyers who perpetrated this sham in the first place. |
