Hey, think Adam is related to this guy? I was reading the 1958 book "pawns in the game". It mentions a Schiff deepstate  guy: "The Japanese government was financed by international loans raised by Jacob Schiff (New  York). Schiff was senior partner in Kuhn-Loeb & Co. He co-operated with Sir Ernest Cassels  (England) and the Warburgs (Hamburg). Jacob Schiff justified his action of financing the  Japanese in the war against Russia in a letter he wrote to Count Witte, the Tzar's emissary who  attended the Peace negotiations held at Portsmouth, U.S.A. in 1905.  "Can it be expected that the influence of the American Jew upon public opinion will be exerted  to the advantage of the country which systematically degraded his brethren-in-race ? ... If the  Government, now being formed, should not succeed in assuring safety, and equal opportunity  throughout the Empire, to the Jewish population, then indeed the time will have come for the  Jews in Russia to quit their inhospitable fatherland. While the problem with which the civilized  world will then be faced will be enormous, it will be solved, and you, who are not only a far-  seeing statesman, but also a great economist, know best that the fate of Russia, and its doom,  will then be sealed."  The hypocrisy of Jacob Schiff can be better appreciated when it is explained that from 1897 he  had financed the Terrorists in Russia. In 1904 he helped finance the revolution which broke out  in Russia in 1905. He also helped to organize on an international basis the financing of the  Russian Revolution which broke out early in 1917, and gave him and his associates their first  opportunity to put their Totalitarian Theories into effect. [61  The Russo-Japanese War was fomented by the international bankers in order to create the  conditions necessary for the success of a revolutionary effort to overthrow the power of the  Tzars. The plans of the International Bankers were upset when the Jewish-led Mensheviks  started a revolution independently in Russia in 1905. When the International Bankers withheld  financial support the revolution failed right at the moment it appeared to have reached the  pinnacle of success. "
