May 3, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - In a new shocker in the United Nations' oil-for-food scandal, a letter written just two weeks ago suggests the U.N. official who led the program may be engaged in an ongoing cover-up, it was reported yesterday. On April 14, U.N. oil-for-food chief Benon Sevan sent a letter to a company under investigation in the scandal asking it to stay mum, NBC reported.

Kofi Annan is a criminal and should be locked up.
What about his son Kojo, and the fortune he's been stealing thanks to his sugar daddy.
Annan has consistently delivered gross incompetence from his early Srebrenica disaster and Rwanda Genocide right up until this latest fiasco.
Not to mention his megalomania.

Kofo and Kojo will next appear on their own variety program on the Food network.

This scandal is a REAL Scandal and should be reported loud and clear in all news media. This should be the death knell for the UN. The book the peacekeepers wrote about their incompetence, wild partying, drugs and sex has Kofi and his gang hysterically trying to get it squashed.
The fact that France, Germany, Russia and all the other naysayers are so heavily involved in this scandal should negate any unilateral criticism against the USA. Now we learn that Mark Rich and his company or companies was involved......follow the money. Who comes to mind?

I think his name is spelled Marc.
I know. I think there may be media outlets involved too. That list of 270 was not complete, apparently they now have a real long list from Saddams own files.
Could be reporters names on it too...

You know, back during the Clinton years, I wondered what the Bent One would do after leaving the White House - what could be next on his agenda for power after being POTUS? It didn't take long to figure out. It seems all the dots are connecting quite nicely, aren't they?

"I do not see why Benon would be involved sending a message like this," Annan replied. "This is news to me."Bull. Guess your rehabilitation tour is off to a rocky start, Annan...

Let's put Kurt Waldheim back in charge of the UN? Is that old NAZI still alive?
Jimmy Carter and Kurt got along so fine. Don't you long for those good old days? LOL

T'row da bums out!(The UN, that is.)
A little popular uprising about this could help get the ball rolling, though we know the media won't help. Billhilly's been so looking forward to the perks and pay-offs of the top spot there!
