news to uncover in the Oil-for-Food scandalExcerpt:
It's time to talk about Oil-for-Terror.
Especially with the U.N.'s own investigation into Oil-for-Food now taking shape, and more congressional hearings in the works, it is high time to focus on the likelihood that Saddam may have fiddled Oil-for-Food contracts not only to pad his own pockets, buy pals, and acquire clandestine arms but also to fund terrorist groups, quite possibly including al Qaeda.
There are at least two links documented already. Both involve oil buyers picked by Saddam and approved by the U.N. One was a firm with close ties to a Liechtenstein trust that has since been designated by the U.N. itself as "belonging to or affiliated with Al Qaeda." The other was a Swiss-registered subsidiary of a Saudi oil firm that had close dealings with the Taliban during Osama bin Laden's 1990's heyday in Afghanistan.
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my General Interest ping list!. . .don't be shy.
That is tantamount to allowing Hillary Clinton to supervise the investigations of Whitewater, Filegate, Monicagate, with the report going for corrective action to a committee led by John Kerry and Barbara Streisand.
