In their report on the long overdue death of Lord Jacob Rothschild, the BBC reports:
In 1815 the bank made a fortune when Nathan Mayer Rothschild bought British government bonds in anticipation of Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo.
But the report basically paints Rothschild as a patron of the arts and environment, but also as a seeker of peace in the Middle East!
Yes. Really.
