something which I'm confused about with this is looking at his wikipedia page he's done this repeatedly and the only people who seem to care are the countries in which he spent money? what is their motivate for interfering and why is he always let off for with a fine then just continues?

if Equatorial Guinea is content with him taxing them and stealing money and no crime has been comitted then how come america and france are so enthusiastic about prosecuting him when he's spening millions there?

when the car firms talk about clients who wish to remain anonymous I always think its Bill Gates, Ronaldo, Tom Cruise type, where as in fact its blood thirsty dictators who have stolen money from their own people. Banks get punished for this likes of VW nah that's fine sell to who ever you like regardless of where the money comes from.

It is more, it is an easy target. Look at those corupt Africans, whilst ignoring the corrupt Russians, chinese etc. Russia is massively powerful, EG isn't.

What do they actually gain from this, it doesnt help the people in EG, it is just a pat on the back liberal idealism.
