In addition to inviting U.N Secretary-General Kofi Annan to be its distinguished lecturer in Oakland yesterday, the Heinz Company Foundation also presented Annan its Humanitarian Award.

"This is only the second time we've given the award," said Debbie Foster, Heinz's vice president of corporate communications.

Overview..
  1. Heinz produces Supplefer at its factory in Italy.
  2. **Annan gets Heinz award (partly) for distributing that product to help malnourished and anemic children.**

Above: Supplefer sprinkles distribution worldwide.

Was Heinz' product Supplefer destined to be distributed to Iraqi children, if the corrupt OIL FOR FOOD program had continued to starve the children?

Kerry loved UN involvement in Iraq so much that he might as well have said, before we invaded Iraq, Let the starving Iraqi children eat Supplefer.

This is an old article, but the implications are intriguing.

  1. 2003 --Corruption of UN Oil for Food program keeps children malnourished.
  2. 2003 -- UN doesn't want US to help Iraqi people get back on their own feet.
  3. Supplefer gets most distribution, if children are unable to have access to good food.
  4. Heinz manufactures Supplefer.

Maybe someone like Sean Penn can go over to Iraq and investigate this angle.

Mean while, here's another headline about Annan's Heinz Award:

Anyone's company could give Annan a humanitarian award. It's only the right thing to do when Annan promises to promote your company's product./sarcasm/

There has got to be something more to this story.

Liberals never do anything for nothing.

Does the Heinz Corp. get a big tax write off for charity?

What is the benefit for JFKerry?

Could it be that Annan is one of those "foreign leaders" that is the go between JFKerry and the rest of the "commies" that support him?

How wonderful for the Heinz company to have a powerful friend like Mr. Annan.

He can make sure a nutritional supplement, that Heinz manufactures, gets distributed to starving people

He can stall and criticize US attempts to free starving people from corrupt dictators.

He can mismanage an organization that corruptly mismanages a food program for those people.

Just think, if Castro continues to be propped up, and continues to starve his people, they might get Supplefer, too.

lots of interestimng connections.

Kofi get payola from dictators who starve children to build palaces.
The UN gets most of its walking around money from the US.
The UN promotes and distributes (via its US funding) nutrient supplements made by Heize (done coutesy of outsourcing to Italy).
Kofi get a Heize award for (well --boosting company profits made with using American taxpayer dollars even as he lines his own pockets) but advertised as humanitarian achievements.
And of course the ultimate beneficiary of all this --Two faced Bush basher John Kerry who wants us to be subservient to--the UN.
Wonder whose pockets will be lined next?
Yes quite a scam.

As long as the UN can be the middle man, between dictators and those who supply goods to the dictators, they will be sitting pretty.

Nutritional supplements are good ...but freeing people to grow their own food is even better.

This article has disgusted me to no end...supplefer for the starving children brought to you by mega corporate beastmistress Kerry-Heinz.

The corruption and decadence fostered upon this earth by leftist cabals - UN, NCC, mega foundations, unions, Democrats, ad nauseum - and their allies has turned a large part of humanity into dependent humanoids.

Heinz' involvement in Oil for Food should be detailed. Really.

I also remember back late last year, maybe around the time Kerry was talking about Chirac, he said he spoke to, or had someone speak to Kofi Annan about Iraq.
