Offering night vision lenses on eBay -- let's just help the enemy as much as we can... this is totally creepy:

“NBC Newser Sold High Tech to Iran,” NewsMax, 2/9/05
"An NBC News cameraman pleaded guilty in Philadelphia on Monday to attempting to sell banned technology to Iran. Erik Kyriacou, 24, of North Babylon, N.Y., had been charged with four federal counts, including trying to export technology to an "axis of evil" country, reported Long Island's Newsday...." (con’t)

Even though his lawyer expects a lesser sentence, because we're at war and have already lost more than 4,000 of our people, I believe he should serve the maximum. Remember Claude Dallas killed two officers for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game 24 years ago. He just got out the other day. Give Kyriacou 35 years, a good lawyer and he'll still be out in five.
