Ravenseye, your posts are a bullseye each time imo. There was the donation Tony made to bin Laden's Mercy International pre 9-11 and the logs from Tony's private site clearly document him stating for the record that he "liquidated every single long position" on 9/10/01;

My guess is that the AUSA, Breen, yielded info warranting the current counts Elgindy is defending in the course of his terrorism investigation.

IMO, what the AUSA is doing is getting the convictions on the racketeering counts for leverage with any pending terrorist charges.
