Nice. Too bad this didn't get rolling about a year ago.

They need to name the United Nations and specifically Kofi Anan in this suit.

Iraqi citizens filed a $200 million lawsuit Friday against a prominent European bank and an Australian wheat exporter, saying they were cheated out of humanitarian goods when the companies permitted the U.N. oil-for-food program to be corrupted.

They should be suing Kofi Annan and the UN, not the aid providers.

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?

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.

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