"UN Undersecretary General Indicted in Oil-for-Food Case"
January 17, 2007
NewsLog
By Jim Kouri, CPP
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "United Nations Undersecretary General Benon Sevan of Cyprus and Ephraim Nadler, a/k/a “Fred Nadler,” of New York City were indicted on charges of bribery and conspiracy to commit wire fraud, in connection with the United Nations Oil-for-Food Program.
From mid-2000 until March 2003, the Iraqi government’s regime conditioned the right to purchase oil under the Oil-for-Food Program on a purchaser’s willingness to pay a secret surcharge to Iraq. These secret payments were illegal kickbacks, made in violation of United Nations sanctions and United States criminal law.
Nadler allegedly participated in a scheme to make unlawful payments to the former government of Iraq in connection with the purchase of oil under the Oil-for-Food Program. Sevan, who at the time was the Executive Director of the United Nations Office of Iraq Program (the Office that operated the Oil-for-Food Program), as well as being the UN’s Undersecretary General, allegedly received almost $160,000 — money generated from the sale of Iraqi oil under the Program — from Nadler on behalf of Saddam Hussein’s government in Iraq.
Nadler is alleged to have helped a co-conspirator to obtain the right to buy Iraqi oil under the Oil-for-Food Program in exchange for commissions from the oil sales, and then allegedly funneled approximately $160,000 of these oil commissions to Sevan, according to the New York District Attorney’s Office, which will be prosecuting the case along with the US Attorney’s Office in New York.
Nadler and Sevan are charged with wire fraud, based on their depriving the United Nations of its right to Sevan’s honest services; bribery concerning an organization (the United Nations) that receives more than $10,000 annually from the federal government; and conspiracy to commit these offenses.
Nadler is also charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud by engaging in prohibited financial transactions with Iraq and violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. If convicted, he faces a maximum sentence of 112 years’ imprisonment. If convicted, Sevan faces a maximum sentence of 50 years imprisonment.
The DA’s office reports that the United States government has issued warrants for the arrest of Nadler and Sevan with Interpol, and will seek their arrest and extradition to the United States."
I'm getting the same as you.
I just check the link and the general site, working fine.
Well there was a time we TMers were referred to as a "cabal". Probably referenced during the same time as the tin-foiler labels.
Cindy, did this gentleman sound threatening?

Thanks for the Imam update.
I wonder if CAIR had a response???
~crickets~
That one has my interest as well.
You're most welcome.
Could just be a little glitch.
We'll see.
The "cabal."
Smiling as I take off the tin-foil hat.

Threatening?
Nope.
As an aside, all threats will be reported to authorities.

".gov, .mil, .leos and .alphabets"
The dots are people/groups/organizations that I will gladly respond to if they want more info regarding any article/document we discuss on the Threat Matrix. It's not a secret and there is no secret "network."
Ahhh, the plot thickens on this "chemist". Thanks Vel.
>>>As an aside, all threats will be reported to authorities.
As it should be.
Good, I'm glad it wasn't threatening.
My pleasure.
Thanks Velveeta, I appreciate that. Haven't had time today to check on anything, yet :-)

Should also note that the original article stated the raid was on a "family". From the names and ages it looks more like a "cell" than a "family".
Do I hear crickets?
Uh, no...dead silence.
I read somewhere this morning that the Imam was just minunderstood.
Well sure, of course.
Yep.
Pretty good, distinctive photos for a security camera.
Updates appreciated.
Thanks Velveeta for this post:
