Report names top firms that bribed Saddam

Report names top firms that bribed Saddam :

"More than 4,500 companies took part in the U.N. oil-for-food program and more than half of them paid illegal surcharges and kickbacks to Saddam Hussein, the committee investigating the program is to report."

Is this about discrediting the UN? America ignored and by passed the UN and invaded Iraq anyway and made us know at the time there was no sense in us being a planet of united nations because the US was going to do what it was going to do. The headline says the firms bribed Saddam Hussein. The article doesn't mention why. Why would you bribe someone you were supposed to be getting? Why would you bribe someone whose country you were going to invade? And why would the UN bribe him? And the UN is the only planet earth voice we have.Ah, but we have the mention of Russia and France. Must be them . Couldn't possibly be us. I get it now. I am not listening any more because the plot is, as usual, too convoluted. The truth is there and won't change. Did you notice the number of companies has increased by about 2000 over the last article. While you are busy confsuing everyone, people are dying. Get your facts straight and then tell us in a way that makes sense. Children are dying. Their parents are dead. Yes, it is all a tangled web. As long as you know what you are talking about.
