Fox News, 'Breaking Point' to report on UN Oil For Food Scandal
Fox News Channel | Sept. 19/04 9pm Eastern

Posted on 09/19/2004 5:10:13 PM PDT by ArmyBratproud

I have seen some preview spots on this show. It should be good. They supposedly speak of the connection between the UN Oil For Food scandal and the possible funding of terrorism.

The whole time that France, Germany, and the UN were pocketing Saddam's kickbacks they were blaming the United States for starving those Iraqi kids.


Now we're making freedom possible for the Iraqi people, but WE are blamed for innocent deaths caused by terrorists. I've had just about enough!

Hope Rather is watching what a real election story might look like.

What a REAL story looks like, period! He's a bitter old man who is useless and needs to retire!

Follow the money - Saddam to Rich to Clinton... Is that why Clinton did nothing about terrorism during his terms?


Read the book "Intelligence Failure" by David Bossie, and try not to break your jaw on the floor.

FOX performed a great public service by airing this expose' on the Oil for Food Scandal. David Asman's presentation was superb. If the public isn't angry about this, then they aren't gonna be angry about much of anything of substance.

NASREDDIN, Ahmed Idris President of Miga-Malaysian Swiss, recipeint of large multi-million contracts from the Oil-for-Palaces Scheme:

Ahmed Idris Nasreddin provides direct support for Youssef Nada and Bank Al Taqwa, both of which were designated as terrorist financiers by the Department of Treasury on November 7, 2001. On the same date, Treasury named four additional individuals as terrorist financers connected to al Taqwa: Zeinab Mansour-Fattouh, Mohamed Mansour, Albert Friedrich Armand Huber, and Ali Ghaleb Himmat. The al Taqwa group has long acted as financial advisers to al Qaida, with offices in Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Italy and the Caribbean. Ahmed Idris Nasreddin and Youssef Nada are both founders and directors of Bank Al Taqwa. Usama bin Laden and his al-Qaida organization received financial assistance from Youssef Nada. Al Taqwa provides investment advice and cash transfer mechanisms for al Qaida and other radical Islamic groups.

911.........GW BUSH failed to connect nebulous, unrelated, invisible......."DOTS". The Dims criticize and condemn GW BUSH for not being clairvoyant and honing his soothesaying talents prior to taking the office of the POTUS.

IRAQ..........GW BUSH connects crystal clear, and visibly connected ..... "DOTS". Democrats critcize and condemn BUSH for going it alone and jumping the gun by allowing only 17 UN resolutions and only allowing Saddam to violate the articles of surrender for 12 years.

So this article is meaningless to the average leftist because it is just another DOT.

Clinton's buddy Mark Rich is up to his eyebrows in all our problems. Too bad the UN is so impotent. It allows these monsters to proliferate.


And copulate.

Well, folks. As per my luck, I missed it.

((my sewer pipes clogged up BAD!))

However, it's now out there.

Time to contact every elected official and demand they produce a bill removing the UN from America's soil.

Of course, most of us have been for this for a long time; but this presentation to the American people on the #1 rated cable news channel should be used as the catalyst.

UN OUT of the USA!

I don't think the UN is impotent, it takes a lot of power IMO to rob Iraq of oil for food billions and support Saddam while Iraqi citizens live on a handful of beans and their hospitals have no drugs nor equipment...and still be able to persuade the 'world' it's all the fault of 'greedy, rich nations' whose citizens won't give up driving their gas-guzzling SUV's while the UN Member States comprised of socialists and Islamic states sit by as Arabs slaughter millions in the Sudan - because they are literally clearing the land of the indigenous people - to be able to establish oil fields known to exist in the Sudanese North for at least 25 years (that I know of.) Heck, so many lies and such a load of disimformation needs heaps of Power and power needs Money...Iraq must have been the biggest feeding trough the corrupt UN ever had it's nose in and they really, really thought it would last forever! Looking for a reason why GW is hated by the left? Look no further. GW cut the money-umbilical cord from Iraq to the UN. The Iraqi Oil Ministry released the list of names of the greatest number of blood-sucking leaches the world has ever known...and they could NEVER have done that if we had waited for the UN to sanction action against Iraq.
Long Live GWB and FOUR MORE YEARS!
Get the UN out of the USA. Better still, EXPOSE the UN and DESTROY it. (rant over.)

Is it any surprise that Webster Hubbell's daughter, Chelsea Cli'ton's Trust Fund has an estimated net worth in excess of Three Billion Dollars -- and is growing.

Where did you see this ?

Fox did a great job outlining the scope of corruption in the UN. However, what will be done to the participants in actuality?

"Ahmed Idris Nasreddin was President of Miga-Malaysian Swiss, which apparently received major contracts from Saddam."

One more dot to connect.

Aided by the 'Blood Money' scam and mounting evidence, I hope the President is in the process of assembing another case to present to the world.

Blood on Peter Arnett's hands! Never forget how he betrayed America early in the war.

FLASHBACK:

In the Iraqi TV interview, broadcast Sunday by Iraq's satellite television station and monitored by The Associated Press in Egypt, Arnett said his Iraqi friends tell him there is a growing sense of nationalism and resistance to what the United States and Britain are doing.

He said the United States is reappraising the battlefield and delaying the war, maybe for a week, "and rewriting the war plan. The first war plan has failed because of Iraqi resistance. Now they are trying to write another war plan."

"Clearly, the American war plans misjudged the determination of the Iraqi forces," Arnett said.

Arnett said it is clear that within the United States there is growing opposition to the war and a growing challenge to President Bush about the war's conduct.

"Our reports about civilian casualties here, about the resistance of the Iraqi forces, are going back to the United States," he said. "It helps those who oppose the war when you challenge the policy to develop their arguments."
