"Harry Krause" wrote in message ... ...leaving out the politics, this is pretty funny stuff: Chalabi Named Iraq Oil Minister: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...123001307.html but wait! . . . http://www.globalpolicy.org/nations/...414chalabi.htm Ahmad Chalabi, the Pentagon's favorite to take over the rule of Iraq, was sentenced to 22 years of prison in Jordan for 31 charges of fraud, embezzlement, and other charges. Chalabi's Jordan-based Petra Bank reportedly funneled millions of dollars into Chalabi-family accounts in London, Lebanon, and Switzerland, leaving poverty-stricken Jordan to reimburse $200 million to depositors. Iraq wanted a democracy, and now they have a politician modeled after the finest US politicians. |
