Alex, I see the Italians let you out of your chains. Caught again siphoning off Italian funds and smuggling it into occupied Palestine again? Next you are probably going to tell me your best friend (if you have any) is Fausto Tonna! Saddam will never come to trial. Much like Klaus Barbie, Saddam knows too much and could implicate Americans. We only interrogate Saddam to find where the money is...this is all we are concerned about...we need Swiss Bank Account numbers. If he wants to say where the weapons of mass destruction are located, he could volunteer that information if it so pleases him. Another one of your friends? U.S. Officials Try to Trace Illegal Sale of Nuclear Technology "Asher Karni, an Israeli who lives in South Africa, was arrested in Denver earlier this month on charges that he had illegally exported the devices to Pakistan without a license. In court documents, the American authorities charge that Mr. Karni, 50, was at the center of a global operation that used front companies and false billing records to route the trigger devices from a private manufacturer in Salem, Mass., to South Africa, the United Arab Emirates and ultimately Pakistan. The devices, high-speed electrical switches called triggered spark gaps, are typically used in hospitals to break apart kidney stones. But hospitals usually keep only a few on hand — not the 200 that Mr. Karni is accused of ordering from an American supplier, PerkinElmer Optoelectronics, of Salem."
