I think I saw where one just opened. I was going to ping you to the news item, but I got too busy.
Give them 24 hours to hand over the documents or send in the Marines to take them.

WASHINGTON — Money from the United Nations Oil-for-Food program (search) helped pay the families of Palestinian homicide bombers, the House Committee on International Relations is expected to reveal Wednesday during a hearing on corruption in the Iraqi relief program.
Investigators working for Illinois Republican Rep. Henry Hyde, chairman of the panel, are expected to say they have traced funds from former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's (search)kickback scheme through a Jordanian bank and into the hands of families of bombers who attacked Israeli citizens.
It has long been established that Saddam paid bounties of $15,000 to $25,000 to the Palestinian families of the murderers. Hyde's committee will reveal at the hearing that some of the reward money was deposited from illegal profits Saddam made by demanding 10 percent kickbacks on all the contracts of companies that did business with the U.N.'s Oil-for-Food program.

It still has not been approved by the SEC.
One can only imagine the BSers,liars and spinners who deal in gold. They are probably helping to drive up the value of gold. Then they will buy in big time on this ETF and sell after the first few hours. Then, the market value will drop about 20% in a day or two.
"Transparency is our ultimate objective,....."
What Kerryesque Frenchlike nuance. He doesn't say "We will be transparent" but signals he won't, and if he isn't it's not his doing but a failed "objective".
