Hameed pleaded guilty to a single count of conspiring to operate an unlicensed money transmitting business, the same charge Yehuda admitted last month.

These kinds of transactions are quite common in countries that have currency controls. These two likely did not know what they were caught up in.

Lakhani, however, is a different story.

Too bad if it becomes a life sentence for him.//sarc//

That's so true. It could happen to anyone.

You could be standing in line at Starbuck's waiting for your double decaf latte when, darn it all, you meet a terrorist.

You want to be cordial so you agree to facilitate the terrorist's financial needs, and b/c you're such a loyal American, you don't even bother to ask what you are getting involved in.

After all, it's so darn rude to be impolite to a terrorist planning to blowup US airliners.
