I was wondering if anyone has seen this list? I searched Free Republic and didn't see anyone posting this yet. If it's already up, please by all means, take it down and link me in the right direction. :) Thanks. Comments? Worries? Concerns? Let's see how this will pan out.

I'm looking to see if this is fact or fiction... Anyone know?

An ABC article with a list was posted yesterday. The ABC list may not be complete.

Russia sure looks as if they were dependant on this oil for their supplies....

I worry about their reaction to having to play by the rules...

I'm confused about this. Was this oil given in payment for service or goods? If not, why is it not in the press as a HUGE scandal?

How ironic. The folks on the left were screaming that it was all about 'blood for oil'.

Turns out it those countries were willing to trade American citizen's blood for their oil.

Where's the outcry now that the truth is known?

Before the Iraq war, Nelson Mandella was spouting off that the only thing Bush was after was the oil.

South Africa is on the list but I don't see anything connected with Bush or Cheney. What am I missing?

Just how much of the money from this oil ended up going directly into the coffers of ANSWER and all the other leftist shadow organizations that howled so loudly about the war? What was George Soros' cut?

It is not in the left wing media because of a hypothesis I posed yesterday.

When this list was posted, I said that I couldn't believe that, given his corrupt nature, Willie Clinton wasn't on the list. A voucher the size of a sheet of paper worth a million barrels of oil at, what?, $15 a barrel, would explain a lot about Willie and his crimes/treason. It would explain Vince Foster's trips to Switzerland and his murder, why Suzie went to prison, why Jim McDougal was murdered in a federal prison, and so on.

A sharp poster responded that the original listing for Switzerland showed a "Glenco Re" (I assumed it was an insurance company) as a beneficiary. He observed that it probably was "Glencore," an outfit owned (?) by Marc Rich, the same guy who bought a pardon from Willie on the last and who probably will never again step foot in the US.

Thus, the reason it hasn't been mentioned in most of the left wing media is that it points at Willie and they want nothing that doesn't point at Bush. A lesser reason is, of course, is that there is an oil scandal and Halliburton isn't mentioned.

But what would Clinton do with a million barrels of oil? Where would that piece of paper be negotiable?

The two U.S. names:

Google search for Shakir Al-Khafaji

Samir Vincent doesnt show up in anything prior to the bribe list being published and is mentioned as being an Iraqi Businessman living in Alexandria, VA.

Does anyone know the name of the Iraqi Businessman who paid Scott Ritter around $300,000?

Shakir Al-Khafaji/7 mil = the man who funded Scott Ritter's "documentary" and who promised to bring a Congressional delegation to Baghdad, which he did, when he accompanied Bonier, McDermott and Thompson to try and convince them to help keep the US from invading. Also contributed $5000 to Bonier, which Bonior used to pay legal bills.

Samir Vincent/10.5 mil = Arranged a delegation of Iraqi reliogious leaders to met in the US with luminaries such as Jimmy Carter, Billy Graham to try and get them to protest the sanctions which were "killing Iraqi children"
Both are Iraqi expatriots living in the US
