#1 Claudia Rosette deserves a Pulitzer for being the first to bring this whole thing to light.

#2 In addition to the Frogs, the link outlines Russians involved in sweet oil deals via Saddam.

It's from the Guardian so read with some caution, one never knows.

#3 Well, you could knock me over with a feather.

Ms. Rosette certainly deserves a Pulitzer for her work, and the guy who puts together the classifieds has a better chance of getting one than she does.

#4 I'm shocked, truly shocked! I would have thought that the French would have gotten a bigger share!
Seriously, these bastards took food and medical aid away from needy Iraqi's and we got the blame for the Iraqi's hardships. Bush should take this report to the U.N. Security Council and personally shove it up the French ambassador's rear end.

#7 It gets rather curious that some of these birds have the descriptive line in web pages about them; "...a close associate of Jacques Chirac..."
