Hi Jos,
True, but I don't talk about information that may still classified. If it's
already in the media, it's fair game.
Thanks, Paul

Very old news, I am afraid.
Iranians knew/suspected that already in 1992, which is why a Swiss
salesengineer for Crypto AG found himself in a Teheran military prison,
subject to ?intensive examination?
No help from the CIA in securing his release....
On a related note : Enigma type machines were used in the Swisss army. A
few of these found their way in the Swiss army surplus shop, sold for a
pittance.
If only I had known then that these would be worth between 50-100K USD
today....
