We couldn't...and quite frankly...the Dems never wanted us to inthe first place IMHO. Albright was running around behind the scenes at the U.N. trying to get the security council members to vote in favor of loosening the sanctions back in the 90's...while talking tough to the cameras...it's no wonder that France and other nations engaged in the Oil For Food scam...they thought we were secretly condoning their actions.

The entire UN was in on the scam. The Oil for Food program was a cash cow for the UN, which received a percentage of every transaction in the form of administrative fees.

The US also winked at Iraqi oil sales to Turkey and Jordan, which were outside the Oil for Food program.
