American Samizdat

Tuesday, April 20, 2004. *
Reuters  is reporting that "Italy Seizes 8,000 Kalashnikovs Headed to U.S." More:

The arms, worth about six million euros, were discovered aboard a ship arriving from Romania that pulled into the southern Italian port of Gioia Tauro on its way to the United States, Italy's customs said in a statement.

According to travel documents, the arms are the property of a large U.S. company headquartered in the U.S. state of Georgia.
I haven't found a report that says which company. Oh, yeah, and "The customs office said the weapons had been described as "common guns" instead of assault rifles and longer-range combat arms in the travel documentation."

If anyone knows which major corporation in Georgia is smuggling assault rifles into the country. . . DON'T CALL ASHCROFT!
