I would love for you to add in to that the paperwork that Timesonline UK has connecting Obama to Fintrade Services, owned by Nadhmi Auchi's wife.

This one?

Obama bagman is sent to jail after failing to declare $3.5m payment by British tycoon

FROM:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/us_elections/article3284825.ece

An undeclared $3.5 million (£1.8 million) payment from a Iraqi-British businessman has landed Barack Obama’s former fundraiser behind bars.

The payment, disclosed in court papers, is the first time that Mr Obama’s long-serving bagman Antoin “Tony” Rezko, a Syrian immigrant to the United States, has been linked to Nadhmi Auchi, the Iraqi-born billionaire who is one of Britain’s richest men.

Or this one?
Mansion ‘mistake’ piles the pressure on Barack Obama

From:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/us_elections/article3433485.ece?print=yes&randnum=1204049914796

A British-Iraqi billionaire lent millions of dollars to Barack Obama’s fundraiser just weeks before an imprudent land deal that has returned to haunt the presidential contender, an investigation by The Times discloses.

The money transfer raises the question of whether funds from Nadhmi Auchi, one of Britain’s wealthiest men, helped Mr Obama buy his mock Georgian mansion in Chicago.

A company related to Mr Auchi, who has a conviction for corruption in France, registered the loan to Mr Obama’s bagman Antoin “Tony” Rezko on May 23 2005. Mr Auchi says the loan, through the Panamanian company Fintrade Services SA, was for $3.5 million.
