Gal Haimovich, 49, admitted to deceiving American companies about the destination of goods, including some that had missile technology applications, which he supplied to intermediaries en route to Russian customers, the US Justice Department said in a statement Tuesday.
The Israeli national hid from suppliers that he was ultimately working on behalf of Siberia Airlines, which he billed for some $2 million. He has now agreed to forfeit the money along with various aircraft parts.

Oh look. Another example that we live in capitalist plutocracy’s masquerading as democracy™️… Imagine trafficking drugs and the only consequence being forfeiture of the proceeds and inventory.
Non violent drug offense? Life in prison! Violating sanctions and assisting a hostile enemy? Oopsie whoopsie!
Oh no not the Putler. Will US sanction Israel then?
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhhhhh, that was a good one.
I dunno, this might actually activate a brain cell or three in the government. I’m not holding my breath, but…
I would love to be wrong, but history tells me I won’t be.

What’s your take on Russia officially still selling oil, gas, nickel, aluminum and a shitton of other resources to Europe and USA? Or rather, what’s your take on those countries buying?
Whats the difference? It is however kind of fitting that it would be the country currently committing a genocide that sells actual weapons to russia.
Country?
Country?
The difference is your apparent double standards. But hey guess what? Capitalism does as capitalism is, regardless of the window dressing
i.e. capitalism
Country?
You know what I meant, no need to be cheeky
I don’t, because a single individual committed a crime, and got punished for it. Not sure what you think was obvious about this.
Even if we somehow pretend that it was just a “single individual”, with no help, no assistance, nothing, do kindly activate your neurons and pause to think - what kind of socio-economic system would give people an incentive to do something like this? Hmmmmmmmm?!
Israel has become the Trump of geopolitics. International law? What’s that? Lol
Russia good, Israel bad
