Since I've been asked and since I personally have no opinion related to it, yet find myself constantly laughing my ass off, I thought I'll post.
-) The aircraft that transferred Bout from Thailand to the US was
N618WF.
(Guess except for certain lurkers, not of much interest here. Still, funny as hell, in my perverted mind
)
-) The official "kompromat" is online here:
http://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/2008/M...-complaint.pdf
It contains lots of entertainment. And it ends like this: "WHEREFORE, your deponent respectfully requests that arrest warrants be issued for VIKTOR BOUT, a/k/a "Boris," a/k/a "Victor Anatoliyevich Bout," a/k/a "Victor But," a/k/a "Viktor Budd," a/k/a "Viktor Butt," a/k/a "Viktor Bulakin," a/k/a "Vadim Markovich Aminov," and ANDREW SMULIAN, the defendants, and
that they be imprisoned or bailed as the case may be."
(BTW, Andy Smulian has also some aliases, why these are not listed, I don't know.)
