1. It seems that is an exorbitant amount of money for a person to have. |
|
Maybe there should be some investigation into why it is in those accounts, and reassessment of where it should actually be.

3. and most is your American tax dollars at work, Mubarak was a well paid thug, eh? |
|
I will beieve that the tide has truly turned when these dictators and bankers are stripped of all assets, and imprisoned for life
until then, it is all window dressing, with a few underlings tossed out to take a patsy fall

7. On a somewhat related note since you live in Sweden, what's your opinion on the Swedish prosecutor |
|
that wants to try Julian Assange, what is your opinion of the women that made the complaint? It's quite different from Italy with Silvio and Ruby the heart stealer and all that cocaine etc.
Do you consider this a possible honey trap operation targeting Assange since Sweden is, arguably, the most sexually liberated European nation?
