Dennis Halliday is a former UN official - not an inspector- who has on occasion gone on the guest speaker circuit with Scott Ritter, only in Halliday's case he is over the oil for food program- or he was. I have no proof yet but I'm guessing that Halliday dips deeply into petrodollars- UN corruption knows no bounds- I know this from Somalia where their only concern was the comfort of their offices and what they and the warlords could bleed out of the aid program. Anyway, back to ritter's friend: Halliday's a nasty guy who cloaks his desire to see the Baathists remain in power with his "concern" for the suffering of the Iraqi people. I came across this letter from an Iraqi expatriate site:

Re: Report on the Denis Halliday meeting against the sanctions held in Dublin July 9, 2000 By Mohammed Al-Sadr
(IFD Representative in Ireland) Salam,
As I invited him to Cardiff in Wales for his lecture, Monday 10th July, I too have met Denis Halliday, as well as exchanging innumerous emails before and since the event - I deduced regretably that he too is in Saddam's pocket. I also stongly believe that he errs, as he has no right to understate the horrific experiences of Saddam's victims, which I observed he persistently continues to do, with his pacifist and communist friends. Denis is going to Baghdad in October .... to collect his reward from the Demon whom he repeatedly asks us all not to demonise perhaps ?
Best wishes,

IFD response.
Dear sister Moonirah,
As-salaamu alaikum. We, the members of the IFD, and I am sure every Iraqi man, woman and child who value freedom, justice and democracy, congratulate you on your wonderful work. Your work is a shining light of truth, not just for the Kuwaiti people, but for the Iraqi people too. Your efforts are commended by us at the IFD for we both have the same goal and both the Iraqi and Kuwaiti people have suffered as a result of the crimes of saddam. It is through unity of purpose and goal that we can strengthen our resolve and our efforts in both trying to bring freedom and justice for the captive Kuwaiti people held by saddam, and for the indictment of the criminal saddam and his regime by the International Criminal Court. Only through a free and democratic Iraq, can peace come to its land and can that country live at peace with not just our beloved Kuwait, but also with all the family of nations.
Sincerely,
Mohammed Al-Sadr
