Ernst Welteke resigned as the president of Germany's Bundesbank on Friday. Hans Eichel, the finance minister, is thought to favour Caio Koch-Weser, a state secretary in the finance ministry, who has broad international experience. WHAT? A Brazilian replacing a President of the Bundesbank? and the President of the Bundesbank is being booted accused of corruption??? God must be laughing!! news.ft.com I think the other Brazilian born commander of the Bundeswehr must have done a good job! Carlos Ghosn, after teaching the Japanese how to make cars profitable at Japan's Nissan is now going to Renault to rescue. Be carefull with those Brazilians abroad. They turn the world upside down. Well, lets see if they give a passport to Werder Bremen's Ailton for him to help the Germans in the next world Cup they are hosting in two years time. Brazilian Elmatador plays a very small role: He is just doing his bit with Siemens in Jakarta <VBG>

Jay, Re: US gets enticed in deeper to Iraq, with the draft lowering aggregate J6P income, forcing sales. Sale of what? No draftable men hold any financial assets worth mentioning. Most live paycheck to paycheck or on the good graces of their parents. As to the U.S. getting "enticed", this is already baked in the cake. Just read the planning documents of the Project for a New American Century, the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs or Brzezinski's "The Grand Chessboard" to understand that Iraq is just the first inning in the planned World War III.
