So it seems like the US will pin its hopes on saying Fischer was
exporting his "services", and Yugoslavia was profiting from Fischer's
name, as the letter from the Philippines US embassy stated.

Pretty weak case if you ask me.


Nobody asked you. :-)



If playing chess in front of a paying audience, with television rights,
publication rights, etc., amounting to enough money to cover a five million
U.S. dollar prize fund is not "commerce," then what is?


BTW, the wording of the document posted makes it crystal-clear that the USCF
was also in violation, even if they never paid for the "Informants" imported
from Yugoslavia.
