But I think that making light of the United Nations taking bribes from Saddam Hussein and increasing the poverty of the Iraqi people in doing so because there are other issues on the other side of the political coin is sad.
You guys can bring any of those issues up in their own threads (and have) anytime you want. Saddam Hussein found takers at the UN to get money for oil while his people starved. That's bad anyway you look at it.

No doubt Dis, a terrible thing. Its also old news that was put to bed months ago. The UN hit the guys that were responsible and punished them with a slap on the wrist. Its old news. Ironically, this old news always seem to reseurface when ever things start really going bad for the Bush administration. If Iraq is going ****ty and the Bush Amin needs another boost in the public eye you can count on one of tweo things being trotted out to take pressure off their corruption and incompetance; Food-for-Oil or an increased terror alert (which we have not had a legitimate terror level escalation in close to a year, and that one never made the press). Its all a game for the neo-cons and they push this stuff out as a smoke screen. Its as predictable as HOZ's outrage when it hits the web site.
