hahaha

bye bye Mr.Galloway... I hope the british find a nice gulag for ya

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Corrupt politicians. Do they come any other way?

BTW, what the hell is an MP?

[CommandoFrank]

I'm voting for Kerry because he said he would unite all these countries that were scarfing up the payola under the counter from Saddam.

I wonder how he's going to do that?

Did you know Kerry served in Vietnam?

[The G Man]

I'm guessing they don't execute traitors in Great Britain, do they?

[mewzilla]

Well, well, well...I bet Galloway and Dalyell weren't the only MPs to get some of this money. Seems to me I recall a list of around a dozen MPs sucking up to Saddamn before the war, even making a trip to Iraq.

[Cap Huff]

There will likely be more on this very soon. There seems to be an AFP release somewhere. This is the only reference I've seen today to the report:

"Results of Saddam’s oil bribe probe to be made public"
BAGHDAD: Iraqi Oil Minister Ibrahim Bahr al-Ulum said on Monday he would soon make public the results of his investigation into the alleged oil bribes handed out to foreign political figures by former leader Saddam Hussein.

"I will soon present a detailed report including all the elements I have gathered so that everybody knows the truth in this affair," the minister told AFP.

fyi

More on the Oil for Food scam where the blood $'s were used to bribe politicians around the world and mediots around the world to support the $oddomites.

[driftless]

Let's see... they claim that these documents, which the Guardian says are thoroughly legitimate, do not mean that Galloway was himself corrupt even though he knew that his financial sponsors had ties to Hussein. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, (excuse me, I have to catch my breath), ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,

Mr Chalabi refuses to comment

Is this the same Mr Chalabi that is among candidates for leading Iraq's future government?

If so, I smell ... setup!

[evad]

Heh heh..
turns out the only two not on this list were Bush and Cheney ;-)

[XHogPilot]

bump

[Allan]

The next thing that's coming. Which UN officials got 'Oil for Food' money.

Anyone want to guess?

[beckett]

First time I have seen Albert Reynolds' name associated with Saddam. A big blow to his prestige.

under the control of the US occupation regime

Interesting choice of words....

[Khan Noonian Singh]

What do these documents say about US politicians on the take? It would be politically much harder for the US government to reveal this.

Do we need a FOIA request? The UK scandal has been growing for some time, but there's nothing on the Demos here? LOL, hard to believe!
