Waterloo and Carrier Pigeons

In 1815 Russia, Prussia, and Austria

Had allied with the British

Hoping at the battle of Waterloo

To finally bring Napoleon to a finish 

The battle had epic political implications

But for the Rothschilds the concern was financial

The result of the battle on a variety of investments

Would be very, very substantial 

In those days roads were rough

There were no transmissions by wires

So often battle results were generally known

Only after some time had expired 

But the Rothschilds figured a way to get battle results fast

A very inventive family indeed

They utilized trained carrier pigeons

Which their agents used to send Waterloo results with great speed 

The Rothschilds already were quite wealthy before 1815

But it is estimated their fortune increased 20 times their pre-war capital

As a result of being the first financiers

To be aware of Napoleon’s defeat at the Waterloo battle 

For several decades, in the Middle East,

The United States has employed drones, satellites and other devices of great sophistication

To try to keep current on threats to our security, unfortunately with limited success

In a frustrating effort to protect our nation 

So maybe we should take note

Of what the Rothschilds did at Waterloo, to protect their interests

And try to keep current on what’s going on

With a corps of military carrier pigeons
