It is not just the banks that are failing, it is the regimes which have tried a silent coup against the banks and are now failing desperately. Since the Norway massacre, which might have been triggered by this irresponsible action, the regimes were able to silence the opposition of the banks against their failing policies, but they could not provide each other with further bailout packages. With falling approval ratings, they had to make the banks do that by buying government bonds of failing states. Now this manipulation is turning harshly against them, as the banks are suggesting to do it for the entire eurozone, and in pushing the speed of economic integration are affecting the capacities of certain European regimes to deflect the crisis to the periphery. The banks could not afford to stand against the secret police hegemony of the regimes - that would require spirit, and all they have is money. Yet having surrendered they are of no use to them either, but rather a force that quickly erodes the current hierarchy of regimes in Europe, and Pyrrhic victory is turning into Napoleonic defeat. The financial crisis is now reaching at the throats of the gestapo agents masquerading as career politicians in Berlin, and once again as a result of nothing but their own ruthlessness and greed.
