Good questions, I wish I knew a source to find more specific details about this event. I'm sure there are some long books about the Rothschilds that have this story in great detail.

    Is Ferguson's book on Rothschild a decent read? I understand that the Rothschilds allowed him to search their archives. Napoleon fought against the British plutocracy. We can critique his blunders and warmongering but what were his options? Peace, slavery and usury or war for peace?

    Well then cite them. The Rothschilds are already bad enough, when you make up unsourced stories about them you just injure your own cause.

    I'm not making up stories. I just don't know every detail of this story, obviously. Nor can anyone know all the details of any story.

    When you provide a crazy-sounding story like that, you need to cite your source. Otherwise it sounds fake. And the Rothschilds are bad enough without people being able to point to supposedly fake news and defend them.

    THANK you. Please bookmark that and use it when you trot out that story next time. We need to look credible, and it makes us look serious and sober when we do this.

    Mira Wilkins also has great info on all Rothschild holdings in the US from its inception.
