For interested parties....I posted a thread in here listing exactly the countries. The list does include SOME US companies, however, it would not be fair to describe this as a United States scandal, or to point the finger at the US as being even close to the main benefactors of the scandal.
Unfortunatly, as occured in the other thread, there are some who would like to blame the US for it.
Those who are pointing the finger on this, should not forget that this OIL FOR FOOD program was turned into a tool that Saddam used to oppress his people and make money for himself. Sadly, the Iraqi people are the forgotten victems.
