Last week, the US attorney's office in New York (among other action) filed a complaint for the arrest of Tongsun Park, a South Korean (the same Tongsun Park that was accused of influence peddling in the 1970s "Koreagate" scandal).

The complaint alleges that Park acted as an intermediary between Saddam's Iraqi regime and the United Nations and as a bag man for Iraqi bribe money designated for high ranking United Nations officials - for the purpose of founding the United Nations Oil For Food Program.

Some things are worth repeating: The Justice Department of the United States is bringing a prosecution that demonstrably shows that the inception of the United Nations Oil For Food Program for Iraq was founded on the same greed, graft, treachery, and kleptocracy that characterized the execution of that program.

Except for FOX news, the Park story was given light treatment by the left stream media in the midst of charges brought against people associated with a Houston based oil company charged with illegal involvement in the OFF program. Apparently none of the players in the Park case have the last name 'DeLay'.

So, in regard to the Park matter, who are the players?

Park - An illegal Iraqi agent.

Samir Vincent - An illegal Iraqi agent who is now cooperating with the US attorney since his indictment in January (yep, 2005).

U.N. Official #1 - Someone who Park, Vincent, and one or more Iraqi officials met with on one or more occasions in Manhattan and Geneva, Switzerland who needed to be "taken care of".

U.N. Official #2 - Someone who Park, Vincent, and one or more Iraqi officials met with on one or more occasions who needed to be "taken care of". This official also has a son who Park assisted with $1 million in cash to start a business in Canada that later failed.

Iraqi Official #1 - A representative of Saddam's Iraqi regime who was present in meetings in Manhattan and Geneva, Switzerland.

Iraqi Official #2 - A representative of Saddam's Iraqi regime who was present in a meeting in Geneva, Switzerland and who made many decisions in the relationship between Iraqi Official #1, Park, and Vincent.

Iraqi Officials - Other representatives of Saddam's Iraqi regime who directed the drafting of agreements to supply $15 million - $5 million to an account designated by Park and $10 million to an account designated by Vincent and Iraqi Official #1 - upon the inception of the Oil For Food program (UN Resolution 986).

Former US Government Official - This official was kept apprised of the work that Vincent and Park were doing to help create the OFF program.

Current US Government Officials - Were persuaded by the former US government official to support the creation of the OFF program.

Though only Park was officially named in the complaint (Vincent is designated as CW-1 - Cooperating Witness 1), presumably the United States Justice Department knows who each of these players are - they have witnesses (more than just Vincent), they have meeting details, agreements, $15 million known to be designated as bribe money, identification of bank accounts that funds were presumably wired to, a ranking US official that knew something about the illicit creation of OFF, and his efforts to win approval from current ranking officials, and records of Iraqi oil contracts awarded to Vincent. In other words - a smoking gun linking Iraq and the United Nations in international treachery.

Fundamentally, the reason that Saddam Hussein regained sufficient strength to become a threat to the world and had to be removed from power is because of this alliance between Saddam's regime and the United Nations.

At this point there is no doubt that the United Nations has the blood of Americans and Iraqis on its hands and that it represents a clear and present danger to the security of the United States.

What possible reason is there to refrain from surrounding the foreign land of the United Nations buildings at Turtle Bay with US troops and placing all ranking United Nations officials under house arrest and prosecuting them in military court as war criminals? No claim of diplomatic immunity can trump being accountable for American lives.
