Then why was this guy bribed by Tariq Aziz to give a favorable report about Saddam’s weapons programs?
A former chief U.N. weapons inspector revealed yesterday that he was offered millions of dollars in bribes from Tariq Aziz, Iraq’s ex-deputy prime minister — to give a favorable report on Saddam Hussein’s weapons programs.
In the latest U.N. oil-for-food scandal bombshell, ex-weapons inspector Rolf Ekeus said he told the U.N. investigative panel headed by former Federal Reserve Board Chairman Paul Volcker about the bribe offer, which he said he rejected.
