The whacked out writers for Reuters have to be on iv drugs.

The proposal was made by U.S. Ambassador John Negroponte during a meeting of council members and U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan on Thursday and reported by several participants in the session. It would reimburse firms whose contracts had been approved and funded under the multibillion dollar program.

Unless they totally misquoted Negroponte how are they doing BS?

It is Reuters, and I'm sure that they are misquoting him.

      Actually, since these agreements were with the former regime of Iraq - I think we should let Chirac try to find Saddam and collect from him.
