“similarities of the names. This is ICB as opposed to BCCI. It does look like International Credit Bank of Switzerland, who was ran by what most people view as a money launderer for intelligence agencies of all types, Mossad.…”

which I found very interesting when it's talking about how iOS had facilities everywhere, which makes it look like under Vesco and even under the former owner, more like a CIA proprietary than anything else. That was money laundering invest…

Sardinia is one of their favorite training sites because it's an island in the Mediterranean off the coast of France, Italy, and really easy to get to from Spain where Otto Skorzeny was hanging out as the trainer for Gladio. And so I find i…

talking about Robert Vesco and the Resort International with Inertel kind of mingling during that time. But here's one quote that I wanted to read. In Latin America, Africa, Asia, iOS was organized in a compartmentalized, clandestine fashio…

It came instead from wealthy expats. And we know what those expats are all about, right? It was the bourgeois of political, fragile countries, especially in Latin America, and from the tax evasive exiles of dictatorships that had been set u…

And it says iOS persistently hyped its image as a firm that made small savings of widows, orphans, and retirees. What it was actually doing was a haven for Intel agencies, narcotics traffickers, weapons trafficking. And if you look at the d…

It does look, timing-wise, that it's probably the precursor to BCCI. BCCI was set up in the early 70s. And it says that the number of iOS clients with more than $40,000 in the proprietary funds during 1969 was roughly 8,000.…

MI6, CIA, all of them, Saudi at the time. The banker that was in charge of it was Tibor Rosenbaum. He was a good friend of Kornfeld's and International Credit Bank of Switzerland. So iOS used a whole bunch of different banks, but almost all…

of the iOS. There's lots of these banks, okay? They use lots of these banks. There's probably not a large bank. As a matter of fact, HSBC was created to be one of these banks. So there's not a lot of the large banks that haven't been in on …
