From: Noam Chomsky < Sent: Monday, June 29, 2015 2:29 AM To: Jeffrey E. Subject: RE: > According to economists who have been trying to investigate the details, about 90% of the payments to Greece actually go to the German and French banks who made risky investments and want to be paid off. So in effect Greeks are paying the northern banks for debts that the people never incurred. These should, I think, be considered "odious debts," and radically restructured or cancelled. Interested to hear about Barak. Wouldn't have expected it. From: Jeffrey E.

Ehud agrees with a great deal of your views . disagrees with some observations of yours. has great respect for you. EFTA_R1_02138227 EFTA02713927
