Kudos for being on this story from the beginning -- even before the beginning.

Seems lots of people involved. Some just in the biz as it has worked for decades. Others with grander designs.

Keep up the good work. I'm wondering if that Russian guy really fixed the Olympics, or was just big-mouthing. Anyway, perhaps leverage to spill the beans on other stuff. Fixing the Olympics? Dang good PG-rated drama crime. Should make an interesting movie.

Russians seem pleased this might be the hook needed to bust the mob open. Difficult to get people interested when aluminum refining,commodity trades, arms, a confusing situation in Africa and Russian/Israelis are the nexus. But everyone pays attention to sports.

You might check out Tass, Pravada and others. Every night they have something new. Please ping me if you find something interesting.

Wonder if the guy busted in Italy is connected to Hezbollah. The main Muslim diamond dealer in West Africa was a member.
