Iraq's oil for food program scandal.
I've pulled together just a few links on the topic. Do a Google search on "oil for food scandal" and select news articles from the top of the list and you will find 109 articles.
The US was blamed for killing 10's of thousands of Iraqi babies due to the sanctions. We now know what really happened. Sadam stole the money and he had help.
This will be a growing scandal and is already being called Koffigate. Many people and countries are involved and the center of gravity might just be at the UN itself. No wonder they did not want the war. They were going to lose the biggest cash cow in history. And how many innocent people died as a result? So why do we not hear more on this from the BBC or maybe even the Guardian. Are you listening Galloway? Why not a few headlines that read "US wrongly accused over sanctions"? Do a Google search on that and you will get zero. (you get 4 unrelated hits)
This is how the rest of the world has been turned against the US. Sure the US makes its' share of mistakes but how about correcting the record when they are wrongly accused. And make the correction as big and bold as the accusations.
