Could the Italian "dupes have been in on it?
Could the Italian dupes have gotten a cut?

WHERE DID CERTAIN PLAYERS IN ITALY GET THE MONEY TO PAY CURRENT AND PAST -- HOSTAGE RANSOM. Where did that money come from.
To me, that's the gazillion dollar question.
.....Could the Italian "dupes have been in on it?....
Yes, definitely.
....Could the Italian dupes have gotten a cut?....
Well yes but..... if the funds were raised to idealogically support the insurgents, it would seem that all the money would be passed on.
and of course, the strength of the concrete is inversely proportional to the water cement ratio.
