Extrapolating from the above: "Recent arrests" (plural) means there have been more than one arrest, the others not necessarily related to the arms selling, but to terrorist related trading in diamonds.. Rumours have been circulating that Al Queda and other terrorist groups had transferred huge sums of money into diamonds and other precious gems, because they were much easier to smuggle from one country to another.. Once in the destination country, they can then be converted back into local currency, and used for terror related activities..

Good points. However, you are well-informed, as all of us FReepers are. I don't know if it's safe to assume that all those polled were acting on the kind of detailed information you, and the rest of us possess.

Ok then. Let's see..The topic of this thread is ....polls?

Did we, by chance, overlook some fairly significant points. You know, other than the fact that they did a poll?

Does flight TWA800 ring anyone's bell here?

Now, don't get mad, it just seems pretty obvious that this could, and should, be linked to that investigation, and no one is talking about it. Which seems remarkable to me.
