Last night on my way home from work I had the radio on AM and one of Ronald Reagan's sons had a radio talk show or maybe it was just a radio "special". But any way, the guy he was talking to was pointing out that alot Americans (including me) are blinding socking money away into their retirement funds or having there financial planner invest in stocks and mutual funds which my indirectly (or even pretty darn directly) deal with countries or groups that are associated with "terrorists".

He said there was a web site that posted alot of the known funds that have dealings with these Anti-American (the ones that want to kill us) companies/countries. I would love to have a look at this site.

Collectively if we, as Americans, stopped dealing with the offending countries I think it could only be a good thing. Conversely, if we don't .... aren't we kind of paying the hit-man to kill us?

If there is one thing we are in this country as a whole compared to the rest of the world ... is we are rich. And no matter what country, religon or sex you are money talks.

Any ideas or input?

I *think* he is saying that if we (the US) stopped buying oil from the Arabs, their economy (and ours) would collapse and we would all end up third world countries, and in his opinion that would be a good thing. I'm not sure what that has to do with the terrorist organizations (except that some of them are Arab in origin), but hey, this is Hartmut we are talking about.

Having money laundered by so called charitable or ethnic organizations and businesses as a front for foreign terrorist organizations is nothing new. US money has been hijacked for years to fund the IRA and other terrorist organizations around the world. We are well past the time to put the pinch on that.
