"I don't see it as irrelevant."
I know you and many of us don't...but I fear that others will ignore these little facts as they try to shift the spotlight to Bush and the reasons for war. There's alot of information out there...including favorable information from Kay's testimony, that is being deliberatley ignored and misrepresented, as they look to indict Bush. I hope Democrats attack these incriminations with the same vigor they attack Bush...but some how, I doubt it.

You're very right. The country is being polarized by hatred and greed from outside the borders of the US. We should be united against the euro-scum's attempt to destroy our country.
By their complicity in this "oil for blood" deal I have strong suspicion about the possibility of their more direct involvement in 9/11.

"Yes, but this article by ABC News mysteriously omitted one of the more interesting beneficiaries mentioned by other sources: a company in Switzerland run by Marc Rich."
KNEW there would be a connection to the Clinton's. And bet that is not the only one.
Let's see, how much did he donate to the Clinton's political nest egg?

Where are the sources for this info; wondering how complete it is. . .
Of course, we will hear, just like Galloway. . .it's a lie; forgery. . .whatever; but this stuff needs to get out there and dealt with, now.
Calls out to Rush, O'Reilly, Hannity. . .Fox and Friends! Okay, Geraldo, are you ready for this? Katie? Bryan? Oh, I forgot. . .Dennis Miller. . .take this on!

Well, well. I'll have to eat my words. I don't know how much publicity ABC is giving this news, but I didn't think the American media would report it at all. The Washington Times did, but I thought that would be the end of it. I'm delighted to be proved wrong.
I wonder if The New York Times will consider this Fit to Print?

This speaks volumes about President Bush's inability to get Russian or French support, the backstabbing ba$tards..Succinctly said. This should -- but probably won't -- be the biggest news story of the week.
GW is absolutely correct. The US does NOT need a permission slip to defend itself.

Did the NOBEL PEACE PRIZE COMMITTEE get anything
To: Pikamax
Found when googling for Oct 8th Movement:
News on the external activities of the Pyongyang Mission, April 21, 2002:
The Pyongyang Mission of the NDFSK met with the political parties of different countries that visited Pyongyang to commemorate the 90th birth anniversary of great leader Kim Il Sung and had talks to further develop the bilateral relations of friendship and cooperation.
The Mission invited the delegations of the US Workers World Party led by Deirdre Griswold Staff, member of the secretariat of the national committee, the US Socialist Workers Party led by Steven Palmer Clark, member of the political bureau, the October 8th Revolutionary Movement of Brazil led by its secretary general Claudio Campos and Andy Brooks, secretary general of the New Communist Party of Britain and held talks with them in between 22 to 25 April.
Continues on in same vein. Seems that Hussein took care of his socialist and communist buddies.

"According to the document, France was the second-largest beneficiary, with tens of millions of barrels awarded to Patrick Maugein, a close political associate and financial backer of French President Jacques Chirac...
The single biggest set of contracts were given to the Russian government and Russian political figures, more than 1.3 billion barrels in all including 92 million barrels to individual officials in the office of President Vladimir Putin."
What a shock!

Cannot begin to imagine the money trail traveled for some of the beneficiaries. . .many with unknown mailboxes.
