BERZON, J.,
dissenting in part:
I concur in the disposition, except as to count 11 of the Indictment, charging Efren Rodriguez with possession with intent to distribute and distribution of 152.1 grams of methamphetamine on August 12, 2002. I would hold that there was insufficient evidence to support a conviction on an aiding and abetting theory for that charge, as there was no evidence that Rodriguez “partieipate[d]” in that particular transaction “as in something that he wishe[d] to *752bring about.” United States v. Ramos-Rascon, 8 F.3d 704, 711 (9th Cir.1993).
