I think a way to look at oil for food is a neo-colonialism, the UN's colonialism of Iraq, extracting wealth with the convenient help of a localo factotum.

Effectively that is true.

As an aside, Kofi is also the guy who presided over the Rwanda debacle before he became Secretary General.

Kofi gives his blessing to the Kagame regime and the UN gives Rwanda lotsa money. I do think, however, that Kofi will retire rather than be taken down.....just like Blix.
