BCCI- does anyone know?

DTS, I think it's a little shaky- I've read a lot about this particular issue over the years. I mean, yes, we funded the mujahadeen against the Soviets, no questions. But I don't know that we can specifically blame Bush for Osama, as some of the allegations concern Osama's family's connection to this bank and the Bushies and I know at some point the bin Laden family cut off ties with Osama.

It's kind of like the Prescott Bush-Nazis thing- yes, clearly Granddad Bush profited off of companies that helped fund Hitler's rise to power. Does it make for a direct link? Eh, I'm skeptical. Here's an equally long article on that subject:

What I do take from this is that when lots of money is involved, anything goes.
