Moneychanger Raid: Cashbollah Connection?

By Brian C. Ledbetter · Wednesday, September 20. 2006 13:28
In an update to our story from earlier today, we see this photograph, sent out by the Israeli Defense Forces. Cash from Iran? We've heard that before! I wonder if the IDF discovered any Korean super-notes amongst the Iranian stash, or if Iran is merely passing along cash from the mullah-ocracy of Saudi Arabia.

From the caption: In this picture made available by the Israeli Defense Forces, an Israeli policman counts banknotes at a Palestinian currency exchange office during an Israeli army raid in the West Bank town of Tulkarem, Wednesday Sept. 20, 2006. Israeli troops raided the homes and offices of 14 money changers in the West Bank early Wednesday, confiscating nearly $1.5 million US (1.2 million euro) the army said came mostly from Iran and was earmarked for terrorism.

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*Thanks for the heads up; this is worth following-up...

If there is anything fishy about those, I expect them to trumpet it, and fast. I fear, however, that with all the oil money flowing around, those may well be real...

There is little possibility to trace all of this.

Incidentally, with all this money flowing into war, we Arabs are wasting the financial opportuinity that comes with high oil prices. Commodity prices fluctuate, and common sense indicates that you should stack the dough to cover lean years.

Oh well, maybe the Cadillacs had their day; it will soon be back to camels when the oil runs out.
