I have been reading them all. So far there has been no proof that France or Germany or Russia or any other nation voted against the war so that they could keep the oil for food scam going.

Read this:

Earlier Thursday, U.S. soldiers and Iraqi police raided the residence of Iraqi politician Ahmad Chalabi, a member of the U.S.-appointed Governing Council. Police seized computers, documents related to the oil-for-food program, a report by the Oil Ministry to the Governing Council and letters from the council, Chalabi said.

U.S. and coalition officials recently accused Chalabi of undermining their investigation into the oil-for-food program. The U.S.-backed investigation has collected more than 20,000 files from Saddam Hussein's old regime and hired an American accounting firm to review them.

But Chalabi launched his own investigation, saying an independent probe will have more credibility, and has appointed his own accounting firm. Chalabi has exposed alleged abuses of the oil-for-food program.

Can it be? Chalabi is at the center of the oil for food scam? I thought he was Cheney's boy? Or is he a spy for Iran? Or...was he responsible for throwing a "curveball" to Powell?
