WHY is our government continuing to deal with Manucher Ghorbanifar?
Look up "liar" in your dictionary, you will see his picture by the definition.

He is so much of a liar that the CIA and Department of Defense refuse to work with him, but the Republicans can't seem to get enough of him.

5. Could well be.
It's interesting that he was wrapped up in the AIPAC / Larry Franklin spy scandal.

7. Is their a liar, a crook
a criminal that the US government won't do business with if it furthers their self interest. Why do you think the majority of the planet is so full of hatred and contempt for Bushco.
