Maurice I totally disagree with your assessment. Iceland is a democratic country the banks where authorized to act as BANKS under the supervision of the elected Iceland government which was elected by the majority of Iceland citizens and therefore the country citizen bear the responsibility. No Iceland party or Iceland citizen appealed to the Iceland government or Iceland courts at a time that the Iceland government authorized banks behaved like high risk private equity funds, similar to Stanford (spl?) from Texas who now stands criminal trial. And yes they are scum as they reneged on paying back to innocent people that put their savings in an Iceland government authorized bank elected by the same citizen. People deposited money in a State of Iceland supervised/sponsored bank and not in a private equity fund!! For you it is easy to talk nonsense because you did not lose a penny due to the collapse of the Iceland banks. So better check your morality compass before commenting on money lost by scores of saver who where duped to deposit funds in a BANK!!
