Why are all of these issues coming to the forefront in the MSM all of the sudden, I.E. Sandy Burglar and oil for food.
This is old news that all of the sudden is MSM material.

Why wasn't Kofi and his gang at the UN included? Didn't they make a killing off this?

That's my plan...The Iraqis should get every cent made by anyone on the illegally obtained oil.

Easy prediction: No one who deserves to be burned for this will be burned. And, if the Iraqis win this lawsuit, it will come out of taxpayers' pockets.

That's my plan...I like your plan. The only change I would make is to add provisions for long prison sentences for those involved.

"They need to name the United Nations and specifically Kofi Anan in this suit."
That's what I was hoping this was about.

This should be a much bigger suit than 200 mil. Discovery should certainly be interesting. Get the popcorn ready.

Ummm, the Iraqi people paid for the goods with oil revenue. It's not like this was UNICEF freebies or some such.
