It sounds like UN officials were skimming money from the War On Iraq Oil For Food program. Most prominent among those accused in the scandal is [Benon Sevan], the Cyprus-born U.N. undersecretary general who ran the program for six years... The second page of the letter contains a table titled "Quantity of Oil Allocated and Given to Mr. Benon Sevan." The table lists a total of 7.3 million barrels of oil as the "quantity executed" - an amount that, if true, would have generated an illegal profit of as much as $3.5 million. (Corrupt Ion)
