What’s the Feds plan to deal with Iran and North Korea, or are those approved satellite printing locations?

I remember reading that during WWII, the Germans printed up huge amounts of British pound notes. They were technically perfect but somehow the Bank of England found them fairly easily.

I can’t recall how right now.

A modern-day Robin Hood would be someone who makes $77 million in counterfeit money and them gives it out to homeless people. :-P

“The suspects allegedly moved their operation to a sophisticated printing plant in New Jersey in May 2014,...”

This was their downfall. Should have kept the op in Israel but they probably had good reasons moving to New Jersey. It was probably becoming too dangerous to ship the bills to the US or spend them in Europe.

Are the Israelis named Mohammed or Yossi?
