Pity it's too late for the South African "Arms Deal" - now that was a pretty piece of corrupters and eager corruptees.

[At the end of the day we'll have paid around R70 billion for subs, aircraft and surface ships that we can neither man or maintain - thanks Europe!]

Ah C'mon guys.
Money takes all the pain away:

BAe have allegedly been shipping money out the back door since corruption was invented: Al Yamamah:
Secrets of al-Yamamah | The Guardian BAE investigation | guardian.co.uk
French with the Taiwanese frigates.
Italy with Allitalia and AW.

USA: Don't even go there.
And we haven't even begun with 3rd world countries............
Or FIFA

And recently, Bernie Ecclestone handing over £29 million to a guy - to go away and not talk about his tax affairs and then on top of this, he slips the German government £60 million to take the pain away also???

Well, from the Italian perspective. I'm sure the CBI in India are desperately looking for something to justify the premature cashing of guarantees by the Indian government, who appear to have behaved as judge, jury and executioner prior to any actual evidence coming to light. The fat lady is still in her dressing room doing scales. . .
