Amazing the petty tactics the prosecutor is using of tying Anthony to Sept 11....just because he is of Arab descent and happens to be a Muslim.

Well, not JUST because...

Q: Do you have any idea why he would liquidate his children's $300k trust accounts? ...on Sept 10? Aren't the funds supposed to be there for decades to ensure his children's welfare? ...or did Tony know that selling on Sept 10 was for his children's welfare? Why did he just transfer $700k to Lebanon? ...and purchase real estate there? ...Lebanon?!?

From the NY Times: 'At the hearing yesterday, Mr. Breen said that on the afternoon of Sept. 10, Mr. Elgindy contacted his broker at Salomon Smith Barney and asked him to sell $300,000 in stock in his children's trust funds. During the Sept. 10 conversation, Mr. Elgindy predicted that the Dow Jones industrial average, which at the time stood at about 9,600, would soon crash to below 3,000, Mr. Breen said. Mr. Elgindy was unable to sell the stock before markets closed Sept. 10, and it was instead sold Sept. 18, the first day that markets reopened for trading after the attacks, Mr. Breen said.

The Salomon Smith Barney broker contacted the F.B.I. after the attacks to report the conversation, Mr. Breen said. He did not identify the broker. A spokesman for Salomon Smith Barney confirmed that Mr. Elgindy was a client but said that Salomon did not comment on matters relating to its clients.'


So, Tony's own broker was so disturbed by the incident that he contacted the FBI immediately after the attacks to report it.

"If Anthony had prior link, dont you think he would have gone HEAVY SHORT THE MARKET."

How do you know what Tony did or did not do. At a minimum, haven't you figured out that Tony didn't always tell the truth about his activities.

But let's say he was not short the market. One counter is that he surely would know that it would raise a red flag.

You can't project your own thinking onto this individual. If I were going to commit a crime of this magnitude, I certainly wouldn't have made bribes using traceable transactions. Does that mean that because he did, those transactions must be of an innocent nature?

For all of those people that are defending Tony about what he couldn't possibly have done, would you have said the same thing about the idea of him bribing FBI agents a week ago?

I read a funny exchange where someone was claiming that Tony wouldn't have used someone else's Fed Ex account. I wonder if that person still believes Tony would never do such a thing.

We all have our own opinions. We will have to see how it plays out in court. However, I am sure that he could be nailed to the wall on every charge, and some of his followers would still be defending him. After all, wasn't he just busting scam companies </sarcasm off>

"If Anthony had prior link, dont you think he would have gone HEAVY SHORT THE MARKET"

Is a two million short considered a heavy short for Tony? This is reportedly the dollar amount he was short as per his attorney.

Jeff Jordan claims there was a post where Tony says he was short 400 stocks but now Jeff can't find the post. How many stocks did Tony typically carry in his short portfolio?

Even if you were to tell me, I wouldn't believe it. I am not implying that you would lie. Tony is a known liar and nothing he has said can be trusted at this point.
