We were told that the war will take place on many fronts.
This morning, it was Zurich.

Thanks for posting some GOOD news. We're getting way too much bad news these days.

Now that is news. Hope it just wasn't a dog and pony show for us. I'd feel a lot better if they said there was significant cash found.

Yes. Good on Zurich. Though we won't know it, I do hope the rules of engagement include wet work too with no legitimate target untouched--lawyers, bankers, financiers, arms traffickers etc. This is a new kind of war...

This is propaganda to calm down the sheeple.
Just think about this : the swiss government, just like the rest of the european governments, is censoring the fact that the responsible for the "accident" that caused the Gotthard Tunnel to close for the first time ("at least six monts") was a Turkish illegal immigrant in Belgium, that was working for a ghost company that had no license for transportation.
Keep in mind that the Gotthard is the most important strategic point in the European transport system. This happens just before the snow will close the alternate route.

It's hard to tell. Did they block it when the new accounts were first listed, or did they wait until now?
No doubt some countries are acting swiftly, while others are letting the terrorists draw out their money before they "block" them. With Switzerland, it could have gone either way, because I'm sure they are with us on the terrorism issue, but they also rely on banking privacy for their economic lifeblood.

Well I feel better already...and how much was in the accounts after the Swiss called their customers...zip, zero, the big goose egg. The Swiss waited fifty count 'em fifty years after WWII to reveal that the Nazis had money in their accounts and that the Jews had money coming to them so let's not get all ecstatic about the Swissies "blocking" 24 accounts...probably belonged to Hitler and they had zero funds in them.

Switzerland has blocked 24 banking accounts suspected of funding terrorist network, said the Swiss federal prosecutor's office.
Maybe, finally, X42's assets have been frozen.
