The Bungled Bailout

The IMF has issued a report that concludes that the bailout of Greece was bungled, because it was an attempt to save the single currency rather than Greece itself.

Very true indeed.

Unsurprisingly the Gnomes of Brussels flatly reject the report.

Well they would, wouldn't they?

That being said, given that the IMF thinks that the bailout was bungled, why did the IMF agree to participate in bailing Greece out twice?
