Some may argue that the picture doesn't apply. I think it does. I think the canary in the mine is gasping for breath.
Please read this.
The European Court of Justice in Luxemburg has annulled a 2005 ruling against a Sweden-based Somali banking network which had its assets frozen due to suspicions of ties to terrorism.
Because those associated with the al Barakaat International Foundation, based in the Stockholm suburb of Spånga, had no way to defend themselves against the charges, the Court of Justice ruled that their fundamental rights had been violated.
The question remains, however, is the banking network tied to terrorists?
The EUCOJ's ruling doesn't answer that question. Indeed, it appears to not even care.
