How the Bush administration helped finance Saddam until the very eve of war

Posted on February 18, 2005 by Bob

Whoa.

Sen. Carl Levin has released emails showing that the Bush Treasury Department knowingly abetted illegal shipments of millions of barrels of Iraqi oil to Jordan and Turkey as late as March 2003.

In other words, right up the eve of bombing.

It really is a new Watergate every day with these people.

What really happens when you lend $25 via Kiva.org to help an overseas mom-and-pop business? I followed my own money all the way to clients in Peru, Nepal, Cambodia, Lebanon, Kenya, and a dozen other countries. Do you really get paid back? And does it really do any good?
