UNITED Nations chief Kofi Annan was embroiled in another huge row last night after secret changes were made to a report linking Syria to the murder of Lebanons ex-PM.
Family members of Syrias President Bashar Assad were implicated in the killings but dropped from a printed version of the UN report.
Amazingly, the deletions were spotted when an electronic version was issued by mistake.
Computer experts said the crucial changes were made while the reports author was meeting Secretary General Annan.
The report alleged Maher Assad brother of President Assad plotted the killing of Rafik Hariri and 20 others in a Beirut bomb blast.
The cover-up threatened to overshadow the reports real findings.
Earlier this year Annan was accused of being involved in the Iraq oil-for-food scandal, when millions of dollars were paid to Saddam Hussein.
On Friday in the US a Texas oilman and two Swiss businessmen were charged over taking kick-backs in the oil fiddle.
Last night Foreign Secretary Jack Straw said Syria could face UN sanctions over the bombing.
And US President George Bush called the alleged Syrian involvement deeply disturbing.
Annan later denied any he had any part in changing the report.
GET RID OF THE UN.
Gee, don'cha just hate it when that happens...
Bwah hah hah hah hah.
Wow...........
We can't get rid of the UN at this point, but I believe we can start demanding the resignnation of Kofi Annan.
Nominate Bolten for the top UN job.
It looks as if the staffers in Kofi's office are too computer illiterate to download that little program, the Remove Hidden Data Tool, that helps you erase all personal traces and revisions from MS Word documents.

Of course he did. His integrity is so highly regarded by the world that all will just overlook this teeny weeny error.
Pukes - all!
FYI ping
Kofi Annan Voodoo doll needed to convince us that he is pure and without guilt.
We must all send flowers and cards to these jerks before we get rid of them.
Will Kofi still be paid now that the names are known?
Of course he will be paid, they are all paid all the time for doing nothing but trying to convince the world they are important.
I meant an extra cover-up bonus from the Syrians.
Sure we can.....
If the U.S.A. just quits....the UN will dry up and blow away.
I like the idea of relocating the UN headquarters to Haiti first though....That would cause quite the comic stir. LOL!!!
My answer remains the same...only the payment will be doubled if he manages to pull the cover-up off.
I second. Get rid of the UN.
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my miscellaneous ping list.
I see more money funneled to the left to protect him.
Ooops! Thanks to the internet, it is just about impossible to lie and spin like it was done for decades.
