"The Cypriot Pawn," by Thierry Meyssan ["Before our very eyes"], CYPRUS not stolen by global racketeers

Ms Lagarde, former legal adviser to the U.S. military-industrial complex, does not seek to harm Cyprus, but to panic European-based capital and direct it to Wall Street so that it may revive U.S. finances....
