Subject: Thesis-antithesis: Soros provides NWO synthesis From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Alan Williams) Date: Wed, Dec 31, 1997 02:10 EST Message-id: <MPG.f141c63ef981d5989681@news> A Reuters report today (31) says George Soros writes in the London Financial Times that the Asian banking crisis threatens "to engulf not only international credit but also international trade". "The international financial system is suffering a systematic breakdown, but we are unwilling to acknowledge it," Soros said. "We are on the verge of worldwide deflation," (read global depression) The trigger according to Soros was the floating of the South- east Asian currencies which "touched off an unravelling process that has exceeded everyone's worst fears, including my own." (He speculated against the currencies, hitting the Asians where it hurts, and then shows puzzlement when they fall to the floor writhing in agony) Soros is proposing an International Credit Insurance Corporation as a sister institution to the International Monetary Fund to guarantee international loans for a modest fee. "Borrowing countries would be obliged to provide data on all borrowings, public or private." He acknowledges that his scheme is likely to meet with resistance: "To argue that financial markets in general, and international lending in particular, need to be regulated is likely to outrage the financial community; yet the evidence for just that is overwhelming," Soros said.
