Court rejects Vatican Bank appeal against seizure of funds
The Vatican expressed "surprise" that its appeal had been rejected and stood by its position that the investigation was the result of a misunderstanding. Italian prosecutors last month froze Vatican Bank transactions for the first time ever, after the bank failed to provide all the information required by anti-money laundering rules.

Italian prosecutors' decision to seize Vatican Bank funds as part of an investigation into possible money-laundering was correct, an Italian court ruled Wednesday.

bad letter combinations / words to avoid if you want to post that wonderful argument:
Many, if not most are buried within other words, but I am not shooting for the perfect list, so use your imagination and add any words I have missed as a comment (no one has done this yet)

I have found the best way to re-submit is to hit the back button, delete the cookies, look for and fix the problem and then hit "post".
There are also "technical" ways past the filter, like "html ent-ities"
(google it without the dash), but the words and letter combos remain the problem...
I guess the Mafia will have to find another place to launder its dirty money from now on. Actually, a best seller book from 1984 exposed this corruption but here we are over 25 years later and it is still going on.

And what was the 'dirty money' coming from?
No, they were "surprised" because, in the old days, the Italians wouldn't have dared to even investigate any charge against the Vatican.
Yes, they were "surprised" when the feds caught them with little boys, too.
