Moshe Regev AKA Regenstreich.

::Regev served in the Israel Defense Forces as a munitions man in an armored brigade and was discharged with the rank of major after the 1973 Yom Kippur War. In the 1970s he tried his hand at several businesses, notably in diamonds and trading in gold. The businesses foundered, the debts accumulated (to the First International Bank, among others) and Regev left Israel. He went to Germany and then Switzerland, and got into trouble in both countries as he was suspected of committing acts of fraud and deceit. While abroad he met [[Gerhard Merz|Merz]] and [[Manfred Felber|Felber]], and together with them registered [[Mainway International]]. That is the company which, according to Clinton's executive order, supplied Iran with CW materials that were acquired in China.

::The Haaretz investigation turned up additional details. It emerged that Merz, Felber (who is married to an Iranian woman) and Regev maintained ties with an Iranian acquisition network headed by Dr. [[Majid Abbaspour]]. Abbaspour was head of [[Unit 105]] in the Iranian Defense Ministry and was responsible for its missile and CW program. He was also the liaison, meeting several times in Vienna not only with Merz and Felber, but also with Israeli businessman [[Nahum Manbar]].
