Reported by the Telegraph would be poetic justice on a huge scale.

"This roadmap can be find in Kofi Annan's office desk."I second your motion to open up Kofi's thick dossier, confiscate his stashed billions in kickbacks, bribes, and blood money, then summarily hang him as a traitor to humanity....
That IS what you were implying, correct??;-)

I'm sure the Europeans, Russians, and Chinese were very helpful in hiding Saddam's money from the big bad USA. Guess what, we're finding out more by the hour!
To: kattracks
BUMP!

Hussam Rassam, a 67-year-old Iraqi businessman who established residency in Switzerland in 1987, was the administrator of the Saddam family pension fund, valued at $41.6 billion in 1990, according to a Kroll report.What a pile of money!

It wouldn't surprise me. An article appeared yesterday discussing Saddam's plan to get "gifts" to certain members of the press who had portrayed him in a favorable light. Again, a middle man living outside of the country was involved in this.

This from a US newspaper. Most of the revelations have been coming out of the UK. Maybe this is a positive sign, where is the NY Times?

Press got kickbacks too, perhaps? Definitely the press was bought in the Arab world!

Reference my Post #19. True, it's only one. 99 more to go.
To: henderson field
Kofi Annan probably may very well have some of his stash hidden in shell corporations right here in Panama.
To: Gatún(CraigIsaMangoTreeLawyer)
Reference my Post #19
Wow, good catch! Wonder how this one was outed, and the other 99 remain nameless.
