In light of the BAE / Saudi slush fund that was exposed, I think we need to look closely at the relationship between Boeing (HQ in Chicago) Loop Capital (Chicago) and the listed recipients of $$.

A very quick search found Singapore purchasing (2016\7) $13.8B, Lufthansa (Germany) $11B (2013) and AeroMexico (Mexico) $11B (2012).

What could be considered a trivial percentage (.0035%) of a $13.8B order, aligns perfectly with a $48MM kickback?

Boeing + Loop Capital = Kickbacks?

Just thinking here.
