Iran Focus

Tehran, Feb. 24 – Comments from Iran's Oil Minister this morning raised suspicions that some $54 billion was being fraudulently used by agencies within the Iranian government, a state-run news agency reported.

"I refuse to answer", was the reply Bijan Namdar-Zangeneh gave as he was questioned by reporters after a cabinet meeting regarding four affiliate oil ministry accounts currently holding $54 billion cash.

Fars News Agency, which is controlled by the office of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, said Namdar-Zangeneh gave his blunt response as reporters asked him to explain why the money had not been handed over to the treasury as required by law.

It seems that whenever oil and its profits are the subject ...Greed runs right along with it!!!

I guess we should attack them afterall....

Notice all the Headlines on the negative aspects of Iran of late?

The Pentagon will no doubt "investigate" how Iraqi officals lost the money when it was KNOWN that they had no way of keeping the money safe. It gets worse.

We don't need no steeeenking investigation, we don't follow the rules, we just make 'em.
