Kofi Annan--the honorable Secretary General of the vaunted UN--says the US and UK are responsible for the scam perpetrated by his shady son:
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said on Thursday the United States and Britain bore part of the blame in the Iraq oil-for-food debacle by allowing unsupervised oil exports that Saddam Hussein exploited.
Annan, addressing a seminar on the United Nations and the media, said most of the money Saddam earned was by oil sold to Jordan and Turkey outside of the $67 billion U.N. program.
Only countries like the United States and Britain had interdiction forces that could have stopped it. But he said they "decided to close their eyes to Turkey and Jordan because they are allies."
Emphasis mine. I am sure that Kofi would have allowed the US and Britain to use our "interdiction forces" to cut off the money pipeline flowing into his son's pocket. I have no doubts whatsoever.
