Officials have learned that a good portion of the counterfeit money was used to buy stolen weapons from criminals in Israel.

Boy, that's something I'd sure do. Get a bunch of weapon thieves torqued-off at me.

My assumption was that the criminals selling the arms would know that they were getting counterfeit money (severly discounted from its apparent face value). They would have no compunction from passing it as real to their unsuspecting fellow Israelis. That's what criminals do.

This must be written by one o' those Vast Right Wing Conspiracy rags, huh?
