2003, Yemen and Night Vision Goggles
3/23/03 Fox: With regard to night-vision goggles, U.S. intelligence agencies have seen some of the contracts — required by international law — in which the Russian government had to certify the end user of the equipment. In almost all cases, that end user was Yemen or Syria — although Yemen has declared itself an allied partner in the war on terror. U.S. officials believe that the Yemeni or Syrian governments made sure the equipment got safely to Baghdad.
Fast forward to 2005, lots more things and people from Yemen are still getting safely to Baghdad.
