We're never going to find out anything unless we take direct action against the UN.

Just how can someone who was/is associated with “The United Nations Association of the United State of America” have an impartial and independent investigation of the "Oil for Food" scam? Mr. Volcker thought it so important that we didn't know about his association he didn't put it on his curriculum vitae; why is this? Read the article in its entirety here by inputing Professor Gardiner's name or the name of the article in the search engine or by clicking below. Out of all the Investigators that could have been chosen why pick one that is on the UN cheer leading team. Just how much is going into the paper shredders or erased from hard drives, maybe nothing but there is a doubt now and there needn't have been one with a neutral investigator. Ron
"The United Nations Association of the United States of America is a pro-U.N. advocacy group that supports the work of the United Nations. In the grateful words of Kofi Annan, 'There are United Nations Associations in many other countries, but this one is unique—both in the challenges it faces and in the energy and resources it devotes to tackling them. From our perspective, it is hard to think of any work more valuable than what you do to improve the understanding of United Nations issues in our host country.' [6]"
"The Volcker Committee suffers from a huge credibility problem of its own. It is hard to see how a team of investigators hand-picked by the U.N. Secretary-General, whose own son is a subject of investigation, could be considered truly independent. There is also a major question mark over its Chairman’s neutrality. After Mr. Volcker’s several years as a director of the United Nations Association and Business Council for the United Nations, it is difficult to see how he could cast a critical, objective eye over the U.N.’s leadership." From "the Volcker Oil-for Food Investigation: Is there a Conflict of Interest by N. Gardiner, Ph.D.
If this is so smart and the right way to run an inquiry, we should have let Mr. Ken Lay run the investigation of Enron. How can you not have doubt when you find this kind of information out; why was it hidden from the public? Turn the investigation over to Henry Hyde or Senator Coleman, this is the greatest theft in hundreds of years and the American People deserve better than they are getting. They get to pay their taxes into this organization of malfeasance and thats all? US citizen's pay 22% to 40% of the operating costs of the United Nations and they get shuck and jive from Kofi and crew when $23.3 billion is missing and a lot of it is being shot back at our troops in Iraq. Time for a change, guys. Ron
