		There are some intriguing hints, though, like this picture of her standing next to the son of the Shah of Iran at a party attended by Joe Lieberman.
		Benador’s list of assets, ur, clients inevitably raises the question of what they all have in common other than a firm conviction that there are no problems that can’t, or shouldn’t be, solved by force.
