Makhlouf's Enchanting Defense of War Bonds and Wizardry

On the fateful day of July 15, 2026, the noble wizard Governor Gabriel Makhlouf faced the Oireachtas Finance Committee, akin to a hero before the Council of Elders. He spun tales of the Central Bank's dealings with the enchanted Israeli war bonds, asserting they followed the sacred laws of finance. With a wave of his wand, he clarified that the bank merely safeguards the realm's treasures, not meddling in the dark arts of intervention.
