Even a blind hog finds an acorn
 
This is a serious story. The socialist whores in the UN moved the money around (keeping quite a bit for themselves). The "axis of weasel" cashed in on bogus contracts while Rather Biased Dan & his media cronies looked the other way. Now the weapons bought with that money are being used to attack US soldiers. And whose fault is it, George Bush's of course. This is just the beginning.

Iraqui, al queda link

The UN continues to work way, way WAY more corruptly than any "big business" (say Enron) . . .and yet the gulible lib's continue to embrace it . . . protect it . . . hope that it will correct itself. (suckers)

WHERE IS THE DEMAND FOR UN ACCOUNTABILITY !?

a serious story, indeed. .. .and thanks for the link.

Though I doubt it will get any traction with the world. To complex for most to understand . .. .now if there was a memo, from Saddam to OBL ...:rolleyes:

The thing is; Saddam figured-out quickly, that he needed to push his regional domination agenda on the sly. . . and needed to be even more careful in programs designed to strike the US. (clear motive; we dared to throw a stick in the spokes of his regional domination agenda by kicking his ass out of Kuwait. . . enforcing no-fly zones)

How people can go figure that Saddam was doing NOTHING to screw the US is beyond me.

. . .The notion that Saddam was NOT looking for (and finding) ways to screw the US, is impossible to believe.

This says 2 things 1. sanctions will never work if the country in question has money. 2. France, Germany, Russia & the UN were nothing more than whores for saddam. He had the money. They laid down!

One of the big questions is whether any of the money skimmed from Oil-for-Food also slopped into terrorist-financing ventures such as MIGA...

...In the case of Hayel Saeed, MIGA and the HSA Group, there is no public information available about the precise flow of funds, and no proof that Saddam's money made its way to MIGA. But in looking for patterns that beg for further investigation — especially by authorities with access to detailed U.N. records and information on MIGA accounts — some items here stand out.
The logical conclusion of this article for me is that Yemen needs invading :rolleyes:

Quote:

According to U.S. officials and the United Nations itself, MIGA is less an "empty box" than a container of Al Qaeda-related mysteries. One of those mysteries appears to be Abdul Rahman Hayel Saeed, with his charter MIGA membership and his prominent part in a Yemen conglomerate doing hundreds of millions worth of business with Saddam.
There's a lot of questions, and an awful lot of screwing up of face and squinting, to eventually say "some oil money may have made it to Al Qaeda, AND it may have happened by design".

Skeptical . ..that's healthy. :)

But do you think Saddam was NOT looking for (and finding) ways to screw the US?

Of course not - I would expect he would try if he could.

However, it is a pretty long bow to pull to say that Saddam chose HSA to benefit Al Qaeda. He may well have chosen it in preference to other companies if he believed it would benefit terrorism. Or he may have chosen them for a number of other reasons.

It might just be easier to wait until some proof is found. Proof that HSA money went into MIGA would be a good start!
