Americans who hid money from the Internal Revenue Service in secret Swiss bank accounts may escape exposure, at least for now.

The announcement came days after a Swiss court ruled that it would be illegal for Switzerland to comply with the August accord. The court essentially declared that long-standing secrecy protections trumped the agreement. The decision came in a test case involving a UBS account holder who was fighting to stay in the shadows.

Sequestering savings in Swiss accounts makes good sense if you want to keep your tax dollars from going into an ever expanding military and ever-expanding wars for Israel.
