If records show that the bank knew it was helping Iran break international law or foster terrorism, Lloyds could face criminal prosecution, authorities said.
They could face criminal prosecution???
The five defendants, all leaders of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development, based in Richardson, a Dallas suburb, were convicted on all 108 criminal counts against them, including support of terrorism, money laundering and tax fraud. The group was accused of funneling millions of dollars to the Palestinian militant group Hamas, an Islamist organization the government declared to be a terrorist group in 1995.

And this was a retrial for only a few million dollars.
Now they have evidence and confessions of HUNDREDS of millions and possibly BILLIONS of dollars being laundered, and they COULD, not WILL, face criminal charges. ???
Does this piss anyone else off?
You call them bankster gangsters, I'm gonna start calling em gangsters because there's no more bankster left in em. Banker is only a title that lets them get away with it.
