They way they pull it off is that they create a huge crisis, in this case WWI reparations, and then they create what seems like an "innocent" bank to help settle the crisis but in reality the bank's purpose is completely different from that being sold to the public. It was the same with the Federal Reserve Act in 1913, they created a huge market crash in 1907 and the solution was to have an institution, Federal Reserve, which would provide an "elastic currency". Of course the purpose of the Fed has been to enslave the US and the rest of the world in a web of debt.
