The attacks & malicious campaign against @DLKhraiche is unwarranted. She’s a dedicated & honest reporter. As local reporter, she did not have access to the alleged sources in the @business article, who are in the US. She did NOT write the controversial stuff. Leave her alone. 1/4
The rare & unusual official denial statement by Uncle Sam, clearly renders the article’s content suspect. Assuming that the other reporter(s) did not just make it up, then they must have received (what seemed like) credible information (at the time). 2/4
For the sake of their credibility, it’s crucial for them & their editor to go back & re-examine these sources to see if there’s any agenda or manipulation that took place .... otherwise, the alternative is that they’re officially calling Uncle Sam a liar. 3/4
@WSJ You should do the same regarding your November 30 article. I wonder if the sources for both articles were the same.

Banks now offering service matching clients with accounts selling #Lollar for real $, in return for a commission, of course. Some of the first clients taking advantage of this service were managers & affiliated companies (i.e: insiders)
@lebaneselollar @LebaneseLira #DanPonzi
This is like the good old days when you used to convert $ to Lira or Lira to $ at a bank, in return for a commission (or bid-offer spread) except now they’re converting $ to Lollar or Lollar to $. This is OFFICIALLY recognizing that there are two forms of $ currencies in Lebanon.
+acknowledging that one of the currencies is worth way less than the other, in other words, a voluntary haircut. The fact that insiders (meaning people who know more than the average guy) are doing it, is de facto recognition of the loss & that the money ain’t never coming back.

Junior, middle, & even senior bank employee: This tweet is for you. Your salary has been decimated. Your retirement plan (Daman) destroyed. They’re firing a whole bunch of you. Think about it. Why are you still protecting those who destroyed your career?
Revolution isn’t only about crowds in the streets shouting “Kellon yi3ni Killon” & sprayed with pepper gas. Revolution is also about exposing the corruption in the system, each according to his or her access. Much more powerful & effective. Start with petty acts of defiance. Image
One transaction you’ve witnessed might seem unimportant. But the collective information of all the transactions exposes the corruption in the system right down to its core.

This thread is pure fiction & any similarities between actual people or events is purely coincidental: ABL terminates Houlihan Lokey because, being the professionals that they are, truthfully state they can’t achieve ABL objectives of no bail-in or losing most of their shares.
Instead, they hire GSA who bullshits them & tells them what they want to hear. They arrange meetings in France to lobby the French government about their point of view, thinking they’d be as easy to manipulate as the Lebanese media & MPs.
Result: The French go from neutrality / silence to their president publicly declaring to the world that the Lebanese banking sector is a Ponzi Scheme. Congratulations. I think you should distribute performance bonuses to GSA & whoever hired them.

Some insurance companies started paying claims for the Aug 4 Explosion. They’re paying #Lollar checks even though they received real $ in their claims to the reinsurance companies overseas.
The objective of this tweet isn’t to attack insurance companies, who are also trying to survive in this difficult environment, but to identify that there’s a coverage gap that’s popped up, & needs to be addressed, by educating consumers and ...
... and maybe designing new voluntary* policies, with higher premium, but appropriate coverage for items requiring importation, like car parts.

* client can choose to stay on old policy in Lollar or pegged Lira or go to new one in real $ or Lira market rate.
