Report Cites U.S. Profits in Sale of Iraqi Oil Under Hussein


...The largest of the allocations went to Mr. Wyatt, who the list said had received allocations totaling 74 million barrels. At the profit rates of 15 cents to 85 cents per barrel that were reported in the arms inspector's study, he could have earned $23 million. The names of the American companies and citizens who benefited from the vouchers were not included in the published report prepared by the Iraq Survey Group that was released Wednesday by the C.I.A., since the names of American individuals cannot be publicly disclosed under privacy laws. But the names were contained in unredacted copies given to the White House and to several Congressional committees. A copy of the unedited list was shown to The New York Times.

---the article goes on to mention that Wyatt bought El Paso in 2000....and exactly when did El Paso and Enron do that whole brown out scam that cost residents of California millions of dollars that Ahnuld has never bothered El Paso and Enron to refund?

sure pays to be a crook in the U.S. if you have friends in high places, right George?
