I never argued with anyone on the "wait and see" approach.
All we know is the 4 cars and helicopter full of cash, according to the Russian ambassador, and the 169 million figure from the Afghanistan ambassador. Those seem quite specific, too specific to be just made up which was my comment, I do believe they occurred.
We do have to wait and see, since there's no evidence yet, which I stated, but you chose to not believe my intents claiming I'm contradicting myself simply for stating that we are likely to get evidence on it one way or another.

You said you're not taking Russian officials at their word, but your first reaction absolutely assumed it was true without question, and even in this post you say, "I expect there is likely video and pictures, but Russians still need to decide how they want to play it." You expert there is video and pictures of something that you think is very likely, but you're not taking the only report of it happening at it's word? I don't believe you.

You went off on a tangent trying to capture an "ah ha gotcha" moment rather then having a discourse.
