The Kofi Annan Organization aka the U.N. Mafia

Organized Albanian, Chinese, Hispanic, and Italian Mafia criminal gangs look like small time hoods and pikers when compared to the massive organized looting of the United Nations (UN) oil-for-food program. Kofi Annan's son, Kojo, was on the payroll of a contractor involved in the program.

Sen. Norm Coleman a freshman Republican from Minnesota is chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. He is conducting a congressional investigation probing the U.N.'s fraudulent oil-for-food program in Iraq and Annan's obstruction of the senatorial inquiry.

Robert Novak reports: "'The extent of the corruption is staggering,'' Sen. Norm Coleman told me. 'The scope of the ripoff at the U.N. is substantially more than the widely reported $10 billion to $11 billion in graft.'"

CNN reports: Saddam Hussein's regime made more than $21.3 billion in illegal revenue by subverting the U.N. oil-for-food program -- more than double previous estimates, according to congressional investigators.

"This is like an onion -- we just keep uncovering more layers and more layers," said Sen. Norm Coleman.
