No crime committed by U.S., a month after seizure

It took a month to investigate, but an Argentina judge has ruled that no crime was committed, and the U.S. didn't try to hide anything or bring any unauthorized items into Argentina.

I guess Argentina will say "Oops, sorry about that, chief" to the U.S...

So was it just local political posturing that led to the seizure, or an idiot local dictator-wanna-be, or perhaps other pressure after the fact that cleared things up?

Here's a link to the Wall St. Journal article: http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-...11-706941.html
