Use some of it to pay stipends to the widows of American Troops and Iraqi police killed in action. Use the rest to hire more Iraqi police.

DANGIT!! Too bad they shaved his ugly mug. I woulda loved to have this scenario in my mind:

CIA agent with needle-nose pliers: "What's the PIN number?"
Saddam: "What PIN number?"
PLOINK
CIA agent with needle-nose pliers: "What's the PIN number?"
Saddam: "That really hurt. What are you talking----
PLOINK
CIA agent with needle-nose pliers: "What's the PIN number?"
Saddam: "I want to see a representative of---"
PLOINK
Saddam: "YOWWCH!!
CIA agent with needle-nose pliers: "What's the PIN number?"
CIA agent without needle-nose pliers: "I got dibs on his mustache."

"The weak U.S. intelligence and the slow-moving investigation, now in its 11th month, have given suspects more than enough time to empty accounts and possibly transfer some funds to Iraq's insurgency, which has cost hundreds of American lives, officials involved in the search said."

What a loaded sentence. They just missed saying, "all of which is George W. Bush's fault, naturally." AP Twerps.

Well, don't stop now, guys. Go after the UN for the rest of it.

The vulchers in Switzerland have been living off protecting the bounty of tyrants for over 100 years.They supported Hitler in looting Germany and Jews throughout Europe.This is to be expected from these low lifes.

Switzerland. Big surprise that a "neutral" European country would be slow-rolling us. They directly aided the Nazis in WWII, it's no surprise that they would be aiding our enemies today, too. I hope they choke on their blood-money.

See #7. People are going to think you and I are actually the same person, LOL.

[Terabitten]

Time to hire a couple 16 year old hackers and tell them that if they can get the money, they'll get first dibs on *all* new gaming releases for the rest of their lives lol...

But someone in the administration should point out Tenents assertion that it was weakened during slicks administration and that it'll be another 5 years before it is where it should be, of course unless the country elects JFK, heaven forbid.

That's when I stopped reading. All bias all the time.....

Indeed that is a glaring sentence. It's a shame the AP didn't use its ace detectives and 100% accuracy rate to quickly find and report on the money.   [/sarcasm]

United States believes it has found at least $300 million Saddam Hussein hid in banks, yet doesn't have enough evidence to get countries such as Syria and Switzerland to hand over the money, U.S. and European officials told The Associated Press.

It's almost common knowledge that the Swiss had no problem being the "lock-box" for the minons of death and their victims. Why change now?

I think you need to read my post again

A tough question for you: Who would you rather have living next door to you DAFNA LINZER or Joseph P. Smith?

Tough choice, huh? An AP writer or a known killer of little children.

Okay, let me make it easier, who would you rather have living next you DAFNA LINZER or Joseph P. Smith and John Wayne Gasey? Woudld it be easier if Smith and Gasey had a pack of rabid AIDS infected pit bulls with a rickety fence?

My Apologies! I meant to say that the French don't want any money to go the Iraqis, but hell, it's been a long week plus.
