@MikeBloomberg , Al Qaeda Affiliates and Illegal Smuggling Markets: A Marriage Made in Hell

Meet Mike Bloomberg, the guy who just jumped into the 2020 race to "save us" from Donald Trump.

@MikeBloomberg, the co-founder of Bloomberg, LP, is a creator of markets.

And, normally, that's a pretty good thing.

But Mike creates all kinds of markets that you may not have even thought of.

2/

One could say that @MikeBloomberg 's unbridled desire to involve foreign actors in U.S. markets doesn't care one bit about where that money comes from, as he indicated in 2013...

New York Magazine quoted him in 2013, peddling money from Russian oligarchs.

But let's talk about @MikeBloomberg 's FAVORITE hobby.

He understands markets well enough to call for banning things.

Guns, tobacco, alcohol, "Big Gulps".

A History of Bloomberg Bans: Smoking, Trans Fats, and Now Maybe Styrofoam | TIME.com

http://nation.time.com/2013/11/24/smoking-transfats-and-now-maybe-styrofoam-a-history-of-bloomberg-bans/

What did we all learn in Econ. 101?

When you ban things, you create illegal markets.

Remember this thing called "Prohibition"?

Mike's efforts even nearly let to a chocolate milk ban in New York schools.

Cricket.

Cricket in India is controlled by a board called the "Board of Control for Cricket in India"...B.C.C.I., for short.

If you weren't aware, there's a lot of corruption in Cricket.

And B.C.C.I. is at the center of it.

12/

Allegedly, arch criminal Dawood Ibrahim is at the center of that corruption:

In Cricket Scandal, Revelations on India

Saying cricket can explain India is a tired literary cliché. But this year's Indian Premier League scandal says a lot about modern Indian society.

Dawood Ibrahim is kind of a big deal.

Here's some background info:

Aside from Dawood Ibrahim's involvement with AQAP and Al Qaeda, he's a tobacco smuggler.

For some reason, Bloomberg, LP isn't real excited about talking about the massive corruption on the Karachi Stock Exchange, which Dawood Ibrahim has his hands in.

This also begs the question...

WHERE THE HELL IS COMPLIANCE?

How on Earth is it possible that BLMB terminals are allowed to be used on the Karachi Stock Exchange?

21/

Are you ready to ramp it up?

I know I am.

Let's start with a little bit of intel...

The Muslim Brotherhood, also known as the "Ikhwan", is (or has become) a front for the Pakistani Army.

Go ahead and block me.

My research is sound.

22/

As you may know, the spiritual leader of the Ikhwan is Yusuf al-Qaradawi, who calls Doha, Qatar home.

Turns out, @MikeBloomberg is really a fan boy.

And I'm not just referring to Mike's support for the Ground Zero Mosque.
