In Arab capitals, he was generally regarded as biased toward Israel throughout the Oslo peace process, and his central role in bodies such as the Jerusalem-based Jewish People Policy Planning Institute and the advocacy group United Against Nuclear Iran will hardly endear him to the Iranians...

But if just 15% of BofA's $1 billion imaginary bond portfolio, which are real bonds just not necessarily owned by BofA, goes bad, then 100% of the investment in Strata is toast.
