At this point you need to jump up and point to:

1. Ordinary banks are not sued for absolutely the same thing, which probably occurs to much bigger extent in major banks which pass many times more transactions than Binance

3. It's practically impossible to catch people who can fake, or buy a passport to do small scale money laundering, but forget about the small fish.

BILLIONS of Russian money gets laundered through biggest US banks every day completely legally, through schemes known to all big banks, and financial regulators for decades.
