I currently have an international wire GBP withdrawal from July 11 pending. 4+ weeks delay

The problem is not limited to USD.

If anyone can speak to magicaltux/mtgox ask why all international wires are being delayed if the problem is claimed to be US gov.

US Gov: Don't you have branches, agencies, corporate accounts and billions of USD in turnover each year, here in the US?
UK Bank: Er. Yes.
US Gov: Do you want to put all that business at risk for a poxy magical online card gathering account?
UK Bank: Er. No.
US Gov: Then downgrade that account to "glacial service status" for everything
UK Bank: Er. Yes.

While such a scenario is possible it completely fails to explain why MtGox is not more transparent about the exact nature of the problem. If they gave some reasonable detail describing the types of hurdles they were facing the situation would be more manageable. As it is any reasonable person should suspect duplicitous behaviour. (e.g. merged customer/company accounts and liquidity problems)
