Kofi Annan, feeling the heat: “If you read the reports, it looks as if the Saddam regime had nothing to do with it. They did nothing wrong–it was all the U.N.”
Nah, it wasn’t all the U.N., Kofi. If the reports are true, it was also a French minister of the interior (who opposed the war), a Labour MP in the UK (who opposed the war), the Russian “office of the president” (which opposed the war), and possibly your own son (no idea where he stood on the war).
Of course, we may never find out the truth, since the U.N.’s files on the oil-for-food scam seem to be woefully incomplete and inaccurate.
