The  Rothschild family  is a wealthy family descending from  Mayer Amschel Rothschild , a  court Jew  to the German  Landgraves of Hesse-Kassel , in the  Free City of Frankfurt , who established his banking business in the 1760s. Unlike most previous court Jews, Rothschild managed to bequeath his wealth and established an international  banking family  through his five sons, who established themselves in  London ,  Paris ,  Frankfurt ,  Vienna , and  Naples .

What is NAMBLA  and what does it stand for? (North American Man Boy Love Association)  NAMBLA is a  pedophilia  and  pederasty  advocacy organization in the United States. It works to  abolish age-of-consent laws  criminalizing adult sexual involvement with minors  and campaigns for the release of men who have been jailed for sexual contacts with minors that did not involve what it considers coercion.  The group no longer holds regular national meetings, and as of the late 1990s—to avoid local police infiltration—the organization discouraged the formation of local chapters.  Around 1995, an undercover detective discovered there were 1,100 people on the organization's rolls.  NAMBLA was the largest group in  IPCE , an international pro-pedophile activist organization.  Since then, the organization has dwindled to only a handful of people, with many members joining online pedophile networks, according to Xavier Von E...
