This non reporting is astounding...they should be thrown in jail.. The complete lack of any criticism, or even mention, of U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan, is a glaring omission that does not engender confidence in the Volcker Committee’s goal of producing “the definitive report” into the U.N.’s handling of the Oil-for-Food Program. Indeed, history has shown that few organizations are truly capable of investigating themselves in a thoroughly objective manner, and the United Nations is no exception. The willingness to give the U.N. the benefit of the doubt, and permit its head to pick his own ‘independent’ committee of investigation with a complete monopoly over documents and witnesses, may in future years be regarded as a huge error of judgment
