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!

Russia good, Israel bad
