Senate report found that US oil purchases accounted for 52% of the kickbacks paid to the regime in return for sales of cheap oil

but, but, but... I thought it was George Galloway and the Russians who made all the money on illegal oil deals in Iraq? Not the USA companies buying the oil, passing on kickbacks back the the regime, and then selling on the oil to the dumb consumer for a profit??

Somebodies telling me a fib. Not sure who yet, but no way do I believe that USA companies made 52% of the profits selling on illegal Iraqi oil. No way.... well hang on a minute, that sounds so normal and plausible it probably is true. What the does the USA press have to say about this controversy?
