Thread Name: BS: Oil for food program
Subject: BS: Oil for food program
Rep. Robert Menendez, a New Jersey Democrat on the House International Relations Committee, one of five panels probing the oil-for-food program, told CNN the United States was "complicit in undermining" the U.N. sanctions on Iraq.

As a matter of fact, the financial 'scandal' of the U.N. involvement is a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of oil Turkey and Jordan rcvd. while the U.S. either aided in the cover up or at the very least, turned a blind eye.

(I'm holding my breath to hear how B.B. responds to this).
