http://thekojonnamdishow.org/shows/2004-12-07/un-oil-food-program

Listen Tuesday, Dec. 7, 2004 at 1:06 p.m. in Economy, Politics

The controversy over the Oil-for-Food Program in Iraq has been brewing for months and now seems ready to boil over. We look at the corruption Sadaam was able to accomplish and ask whether it might unravel the future of US-UN relations.

Audio archives, transcripts and CDs will be available approximately 15 minutes after the program ends.
