How many are involved and how far up and down does it go? Oil-for-Food Chief Said to Block Audit Benon Sevan wouldn't allow audit The U.N. oil-for-food program chief under scrutiny for alleged corruption and mismanagement blocked a proposed audit of his office around the same time he's accused of soliciting lucrative oil deals from Iraq, according to investigators. A U.N. auditing team, which was severely understaffed, said running the $64 billion oil-for-food program was "a high risk activity" and a priority for review. But Benon Sevan denied the internal auditors' request to hire a consultant to examine his office in May 2001 - an act top investigators of the program are now calling into question.

I doubt it is even his point of view. He is an annoying individual that seeks to annoy rather that discuss. He has no interest in the discussion. Impristine is a jerk. Like they say....don't wrestle with the pig. You just get dirty and the pig loves it.
