PS to previous post:
Intellectual mediocrity & evil don’t mix: The FIFA blokes appear to be unaware of the existence of diamonds, which Baal created so one would not need to wire funds via the SWIFT system or walk into a branch with a suitcase full of banknotes.
Lessons to Sepp Blatter. When you run a criminal organization, 1) avoid publicity at all costs, 2) surround yourself with people who don’t talk when caught (omerta), 3) consider that your enemies know more about you than you know about them, 4) leave no footprint, 5) do not irritate the US prosecutors by insulting them, agents are mortal 6) give Ivan Boesky a call, he can teach you the benefits of singing early 7) Diamonds exist for a purpose
