Iranians are dying for their country, Americans are dying for their bankers.

Our country is run by bankers. There is no stretch of the imagination in which someone who works for us would vote to bail out the banks and not bail out the people.

Wait until you figure out those bankers are INTERNATIONAL, and the cash pipeline for war across the globe.

Their capital used to be the UK, now it is the USA; the same banks have been around since the 1800s and financing every war through DEBT; they control the FED and the US dollar, which is used in over 50% of all international trade.

It's not hidden, check out JP Morgan, Deutsch Bank, Goldman Sachs, and so on.
