Add this to the pot of scandals...Is Clinton ever held accountable for anything??? January 03, 2005 NEW MARC RICH LINK STINK Once a Thief, always a thief New details of billionaire trader Marc Rich's shady oil deals under the U.N. oil-for-food program are emerging, The Post has learned.These include deals with front companies that have connections to Saddam Hussein's underground financial network. In particular, prosecutors are probing four suspicious deals that took place in February through April 2001. In these cases, Rich was listed as a secondary buyer of oil contracts originally allocated by Saddam to mysterious French and Egyptian companies. The questionable deals began a month after sanctions-buster Rich, a convicted tax dodger, received his midnight pardon from then-President Bill Clinton. Iraqi shipping records, originally published in the Middle East Economic Review, a respected oil-industry database, provide an intriguing glimpse into some of Rich's oil dealings with the U.N. program and appear to bolster prosecutors' suspicions that he was a key figure in many of Saddam's moneymaking and global influence-peddling schemes. It so Rich, Marc at it again Posted by ron at January 3, 2005 11:56 PM \| Trackback (0)
