There's actually no such thing as "money laundering." Concealing the source of one's funds in various ways is done constantly by individuals, governments, "NGO"s, charities, activists, freedom fighters -- the list goes on and on. Each has its reasons, some I'd agree with and some I wouldn't. But they only call it "money laundering" very rarely and selectively. Like legally-defined "racketeering" (which usually isn't racketeering at all), it's just a way for the people in power to hurt someone they don't like or for career advancement in the System that misrules us.
