#1 Zenster: Name names or STFU.

They'll never name names, probably because it's an outright lie. If we do get a name, it's going to turn out that the firm was supplying meals in a box to the workers on the project, or something stupid like that. Look - if a US firm was knowingly involved in this operation, the firm should be shut down, and the decisionmakers sent into lifetime solitary confinement at a supermax prison. But until we get a name, this is more of the usual French-/Arab- disinformation machine's BS.

#2 My reaction: same as Zenster.

Zhang Fei is right, though. I'll be very surprised if it's found that a US company was "supplying" nuclear material or parts to the "nuclear black market."

And if it's true, you can bet on 2 things: (1) the company will have been encouraged by, or have some relation with, someone in the Clintoon adminstration, and (2) the lamestream media will blame the Bush administration.

Full agreement, Zhang Fei. Like I said, this is just a smoke screen for the IAEA's total failure in Iran.

#4 How unusual (not)--the AP reports that the IAEA fingers an American co. for supplying contraband materials, yet gives a pass to Soddy Arabia and Syria on the nukes...Typical.

Reminder to RBers: the AP is trying to get al-Rooters crown for Leftist Propanda purveyor these days.
Read every AP article accordingly. Rinse. Repeat.

#6 The source of the info is "GEORGE JAHN, Associated Press Writer"

George Jahn states: An investigation of the black market supplying nations wanting nuclear arms has spread to more than 20 firms â some of them North American (What does this term mean?)

Where? Canada, Mexico? Or inside the U.S. with American CEO'S? (not Muslims/Persians/Arabs etc)

Monitor this story and see if anything further developes.

#7 If a US firm is found to be involved in anything like this the CEO and board should be taken out and shot, period
