It was a fun week for news...Kim Jon Il was pressured by the Chinese, The Washington post is trying to pressure the administration and the Iraqi government into a timeline, and CBS is looking at 800 million in missing money. The bloggers (I know I am one now too) are complaining about all those 100's of millions of dollars that the American tax payer is now missing, in response to the 60 minutes story.
First......we need realize that the money missing here is IRAQI money....not US generated, delivered, or guaranteed money. This money was raised through sale of raw material like oil on the global market.
Second....the American contractors are not the ones who ended up with this money. There is a single incident that accounts for 320+million of the 800million missing. A single contracting organization was supposed to get the money as part of a contract in late 2004. An audit able contract that was progressing according to plan, deliveries being made and everything. When they pressed the CEO for kickbacks by the Iraqis he complained to the CPA, the US and the Iraqis....and he was killed and the money flown out of Iraq on a single plane.
Third....if you want to play follow the money.....look at our current problem with the North Korean Nukes....have we forgotten the issue with foreign contributions to the DNC and the Clinton/Gore campaigns. This was from where???? The same place. The Clinton Whitehouse sold the nuclear power plants now generating the fuel for the Kim Jon Il bombs....oh and please do not leave off the fact that the same CIA director George Tennant was at the helm when that little sale went through as when 9/11 happened.
I am not saying Mr. Tennant deliberately put the US at risk...I just think he was a bumbling fool who never should have been in the position. We want this party in power at this point in history???...They would ease the crisis in Iran by selling them all the technology for any weapon they want, just so Akmadenijad (sp.) would not yell at us.
