Kojo & Kofi
Unbelievable U.N. stories.
By Claudia Rosett
In the growing scandal over the United Nations Oil-for- Food program, which
from 1996-2003 supervised relief to Saddam Hussein's Iraq, U.N. Secretary General
Kofi Annan and his staff have excused themselves from any responsibility for
the massive corruption involving billions in bribes and kickbacks that went
on via more than $100 billion in U.N.-approved contracts for Saddam to sell
oil and buy humanitarian supplies. U.N. officials have denied that this tidal
wave of graft in any way seeped into their own shop, or that they even had time
to notice it was out there. They were too busy making the world a better place.
