text: The US, Canadian, various European governments use various money laundering techniques themselves to enact intelligence operations. It is rather funny how they talk about enforcing easy pickings on the domestic audience but they do it themselves.
  
  The US is notorious for using shadow banking channels themselves to move funds to support various insurgents globally. African banks are liked by the CIA for example. The US government like to use their own citizens retail businesses or their allies citizens businesses as fronts. These marks are unaware until it is too late. They then get thrown under the bus for money laundering when their operations are exposed.
  
  The Iran Contra scandal was a textbook case of the US government throwing innocent American citizens under the bus to move CIA funds through various money laundering channels they set up.
