It sounds like the US Treasury and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York fucked up when they tightened AML controls on Iraq. They were trying to prevent money from being siphoned to israel's enemies. This caused wires via SWIFT to fail at an 80% rate, which would absolutely kill cross-border trade with other countries. It sounds to me like a self-inflicted head wound. The wallstreet jews overplayed their hand. These agencies aren't sophisticated. They tend to make massive, ham-handed moves like this pretty frequently. Of course, there's a possibility that this was intentional in order to foment a war in the middle-east... Likely even. The scary part is central-bank digital currencies will allow agencies like the NY Fed and US Treasury this with even more granular control. There will be absolutely no cash, and all transactions will flow through a central entity. Do you want unelected officials beholden to no-one except their private banking jew owners censoring transactions and freezing accounts? Because that's exactly what you get with CBDCs. It'll be an entirely new level of tyranny.
