truthseeker, the point is that "money" from Mercy and IIRO will never be "explained", regardless that Mercy and IIRO financed the bombings of the US embassies in Africa. IIRO was also financing Sallah's bomb-making operations at Global Chemical, run by a director of Mercy. The IIRO ignored an FBI demand for accounting records. The FBI investigation into Global Chemical, IIRO and Mercy was stalled and financial records were never maintained. Investigators were later prohibited from investigating any links to the embassy bombings. Perhaps the reason why was the "$400,000" that the Saudi embassy transfered to IIRO? Perhaps the reason was Prince Sultan, his son, Prince Bandar, the Bushes and James Baker III of Baker Botts are all business partners together in the Carlyle Group? Don't know. We do know that the "government" provided a "report" to "debunk" Lozeman's allegations in the Mercy/Elgindy matter as well.

lma(zz)o when was tony locked inside a barn? btw, did tony travel with fane?

in regards to UBS, don't forget to mention Merrill Lynch and others!
